[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] DrEzkimo:
I have both so can try and give an objective view :)

The nexus 7 is slicker and faster for sure although regular folk who have used both don't notice any difference. I prefer the nexus 7 screen but the tab 2 is fine, nothing too major.

I actually prefer the software layout on the tab, I hate not being able to delete a home screen on the nexus on stock and I prefer the quick access to power toggles on the tab. I dont however like the stupid app panel on the tab that you cant disable.

One thing that surprised me, I do miss the back camera on the nexus. Just for stupid things like taking pics of the cats or whatever, its just handy to have that feature.

Of course you have the SD card on the tab, which is a bonus but the tab has less storage space for apps now the nexus is 16gb min. I will however use the tab on long journeys and trips away as I can put all my video and music files on the SD card. I just wished they found a way to let you (unrooted) move the large app data files to SD. Sygic GPS does allow you to move the map files to the ext SD so thats handy.

Tab doesnt allow my xbox controller to work on usb OTG whereas Nexus 7 does, although the tab worked with on other input devices such as mice.

To sum up, the Nexus is my preferred device in the majority of situations and I am recommending this to my parents over the tab2 unless a very good deal can be had for the tab2. So unless your someone who needs the extra SD space for media or will really use the back camera a lot, the Nexus would be my pick :)

edit: oh and I hate chrome on the nexus, much prefer the browser on the tab, chrome is unbelievable slow to the point of frustration

[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] marv_in_lbc:
I have both as well, though the Tab 2 is on "semi-permanent loan" to my daughter.

First, Nexus 7 is Tegra 3, the Tab 2 is not. That means there will be some apps for the Nexus 7 that won't be available for the Tab 2 directly thru the Play Store (but possibly can be side loaded).

The Tab 2 features TouchWiz, but you probably knew that.

The Tab 2 has a built in IR blaster that works pretty good.

The Tab 2 being 8gb really only has about 5gb as usable storage.

The Quick Launch bar on the Tab 2 is nice, but seems that you can only add Samsung apps to it.

There is a Screen shot button on the main navbar of the Tab 2 that is too damn close to the Recent Apps button - I really don't like the positioning of it.

I personally miss having a rear camera on the N7, but it's not a deal breaker.

Updates, updates, updates for the N7 - big plus (stock Tab 2 still on 4.0.4)

Overall, I prefer the N7
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] wpghtc:
I own them both.

You can't really compare them.

The Nexus is smooth, fast and definitely higher res.

The Tab has a sweet remote, ext. Memory and a back cam.

At the end end of the day, I love them both. But for very different reasons.
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kitsunisan:
Well, now for a different perspective. I've had extensive time with both of them before giving the Tab to my sister. Stock, the Nexus will blow the Tab away in speed. The stock launcher on the Tab just felt so slow and laggy. But when I rooted the tab and put a jb rom on it, you honestly couldn't tell the difference between the two. The Nexus has newer hardware, so the specs are a bit better, but the Tab has expandable memory and an ir port, as well as a rear camera. Now, the jb rom doesn't have working drivers for the ir yet, but it's going to get jb officially soon, so that won't be an issue for long. I'd personally take the Nexus over the Tab, but it's really up to you. If you spend time learning to root the Tab, the difference in the processor isn't really enough to make much of a difference. I'm actually thinking about getting one for myself to go along with my Nexus.
[Android] guinnes.s:
So been reading the many ,N7,N10 reviews out there, they have one thing in commune ........complaints about lack of tablets apps.

So has a android user I want to ask YOU apps developers .........why the hell you are not creating a tablet versions of ur main phone app.?????

WHATS THE BLOODY PROBLEM.....

please let us simple users know why is such of a problem.

Is the N10 gone push to do it??

thank you

I used Lokifish's DeBlur script on my Photon and it worked fantastic. Thanks Lokifish for your great work! The only problem I am having is I can't get my corporate calendar to sync. I can setup a corporate account and email and contacts sync but not the calendar. I tried restoring the Calendarsync.apk from the Removed apps folder to the system/app folder and gave it rwx -r -r permissions and rebooted, but it still isn't working. Any ideas guys?
[Droid RAZR M Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Le_Poilu:
Hi

I would like to know if somebody here has bought the official car mount:

http://www.amazon.com/Motorola-Vehi..._11?s=wireless&ie=UTF8&qid=1350308561&sr=1-11

Did the car mode automaticaly launch when the SmartAction detect the trigger ? (There's a trigger "is docked : car" into SmartAction)

I bought one for the Razr i, but with mine there's no detection of the dock (SmartAction or Tasker). I just want to know if the Razr m can detect the dock.. maybe Motorola didn't activate the "sensor" as they still not sell the dock for the Razr i.

Thanks
[Droid RAZR M Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jmctitan:
I bought the dock for the M, and it does auto-detect it, but it seems like only after you fully close the latch on top and it fully locks in.
[Droid RAZR M Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Le_Poilu:
OK thanks

So the support has something to allow the detection, but the razr i doesn't detect it..

Does it need to be plugged? Can you try without the power plug please?
[Droid RAZR M Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] audiomixman:
You can also set the M through Smart Actions to launch Car Mode when paired via Blue tooth.
[Droid RAZR M Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] baxaho:
the Official car dock will put the M into vehicle mode automatically....whether it is plugged in or not, and whether the locking bracket is flipped down or not
[Droid RAZR M Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bucket81:
How does it trigger it? I'm thinking about building a custom dock around my case.
[Droid RAZR M Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Coronado is dead:
if it is anything like Motorola's prior docks and mounts, the way the phone knows which doc it is and is buy a small magnet in the doc. So the vehicle navigation mount will have a magnet in 1 spot while a desk mount will have the magnet in another spot.
[Droid RAZR M Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Osmatic:
No, nothing like that anymore. There are none magnets in any dock since first Droid and Defy. Motorola has moved away from this method.

It uses special IC inside every dock. Your phone is communicating with it while docked.

That's how they prevented dozens of china cheap dock copies.

I've explained the schematics and detection principle in more details here:

[Droid RAZR M Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Coronado is dead:
Wow, informative, thank you. Kinda puts a damper on me making my own razr M dock.

I do know for a fact though that a magnet will activate either car mode or dock mode on a droid X. I have done it with magnets personally.
[Droid RAZR M Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] audiomixman:
That is indeed interesting information. I've modified 4 Moto Bionic docks for my "M" and have been wondering how they all trigger the phone differently for dock-mode depending on how I select options for each of the 4 docks initially. I think you're onto something that Moto must have started a little while back. There is a circuit board with some electronics inside each dock that I saw when doing the modifications.
[Windows 8 General] Kir3:
Well, I downloaded Win8 Installation from net (64 and 32 bit) and I have 4GB USB which is 3.72 GB in practical. So, the size of iso is 3.82 GB.

Can I delete some files to squeeze that 100MB to put it on the USB?

Frustration level: Over 9000 :P
[Windows 8 General] dazza9075:
That would actually be 100MB ;)

dodge business hacking away at files if you don't know what they are, the 32bit files are only just over 2GB, the 64 are just over 3GB, I don't know why yours is so high, my 64 bit files are 3.3GB...

This iso is 2in1. And yea you're right 100mb :)

Download deamon tools lite and then u can run it without burning or putting it on a flash drive.
[Windows 8 General] aegixnova:
Ouch, consider burning it to a DVD if that's an option for you. Windows 7 can burn DVD natively.

Otherwise, when you're done with Daemon Tools you can uninstall it. Windows 8 can mount .isos without the need of extra applications ;)
[Windows 8 General] Kir3:
How daemon tools will work when computer is restarted?? I know I can burn on DVD but my pc have problem with DVD drive since I bought it that's why I'm asking for this
[Windows 8 General] Souldrinker:
As long as you start the installation from windows/deamon tools it will start copying all necessary files to the disk. After the restart the iso is no longer used, thus you shouldn't have any issues.

Still believe Galaxy Note 10.1 is the best all-around tablet on the market but Nexus 10 is a worthy contender.
[Galaxy Note 10.1 General] samir_a:
Yes agree with you it blows away Nexus 10 I said all along A15 will not be a superior processor to Ex4 because Samsung will not kill its own trademark product for another co branded

Nexus 10 ($399)	ASUS Transformer Pad Infinity TF700 ($499)	ASUS Transformer Prime ($499)	Samsung GalaxyNote10.1

Quadrant	4,551	4,685	4,137	5,695

Vellamo	1,605	1,475	1,418 2,395

AnTuTu	8,731	12,027	10,269	11,962 (12153 on Antutu )

CF-Bench	9,772	7,874	11,861	13,157

SunSpider: lower scores are better

So now it is note 10.1 outperforms on all test by some margin and that when its still running ICS, JB will improve performace
[Galaxy Note 10.1 General] tankjay:
Really striking how none of the Android Tabs get "Strong Thumbs Up" from Engadget - with every Android device they find something wrong..

With Note 10.1 - it was the feel (felt cheap to them), bragged about the (low res) screen, S-Pen an "okay" feature, it's pricing etc.

Wit N10 - Screen is "okay" - are you kidding me, battery/performance is bad (it could be but they seem to focus on negatives), no specific detail on 4.2 feature list, pricing again, etc.

How can an iPad always get great reviews no matter how good/bad it is (never highlight their negatives) most of the reviews are always on their positives (mainly screen and apps) - this is just beyond me - and if this is pre-sales version these guys are testing, they should be putting up a note that once the device is ready numbers/facts would change (for better) - In fact, why Google/Samsung allow these to be reviewed at this stage
[Galaxy Note 10.1 General] samir_a:
I said this and will say it again all the tech sites are biased I would not be surprised that part of apples marketing budget goes towards please them. As far benchmarks are concerned they cannot be rigged atleast of what I know. But we should remember that the gigantic screen resolution is resource hungary secondly a quad core processor of Samsung is faster then A15 by around 20% or so if I am not wrong but we forget that it is using two cores instead to four.

What I am surprised is that the battery life even the battery is 2000 mah more is still less by around an hour compared to note which is a surprise.

I think this performance gap will increase with note getting JB

One more point Samsung will not hit is own product like by giving a superior product to its competitor unlike what LG has done may be they saw they were doomed so they took the call. None the less Nexus will directly compete against the note and tab 2 so Samsung will not make it better then them. They are not fools

I always said before nexus 10 reviews were out that A15 WILL NOT out perform Exenos 4 and most of the experts did not agree with me but my stand is vindicated now
[Galaxy Note 10.1 General] BarryH_GEG:
Anandtech's posted some benchmarks a few hours ago. It's not a full test but it's a lot more detailed than Engadget's. They tell a different story than Engadget's too and are close to what you'd expect.

CPU Performance

The big story when it comes to CPU performance is a look at how the Cortex A15s perform under Android. Unfortunately we're still left with mostly browser based benchmarks to measure CPU performance, which actually highlights a major issue in our testing: Android V8 optimization doesn't seem to be anywhere near as good as it is under Chrome OS or Windows. As a result, all of the Nexus 10 performance scores end up slower than the new Chromebook - despite using the same SoC and running Chrome on both platforms. It's also possible that the Exynos 5 Dual in the Chromebook is allowed to burn a bit more power, translating to better performance, but either way the solution here in the Nexus 10 doesn't look as good across the board. BrowserMark puts the Nexus 10 behind many platforms that should be faster, I'm even wondering here if there's some hard partitioning of memory bandwidth between the CPU nd GPU to drive the 2560 x 1600 display that's simply choking the CPU here. Octane is the first test where the Cortex A15s are really able to flex their muscle - the Exynos 5 Dual based Nexus 10 manages to outperform the RAZR i by 34%, and compared to the A6/Swift based iPhone 5 the advantage grows to 64%

GPU Performance

This section is particularly exciting because it's our first look at ARM's new Mali-T604 GPU in our standard mobile 3D performance suite. We've already seen the Nexus 4's Adreno 320 in action, but the Nexus 10's behavior here should be interesting to see. As far as raw fillrates are concerned, both Nexus devices do quite well here at their native resolutions. The iPad and iPhone 5 are both quicker, but we're still good gains over the previous generation of hardware - particularly for the Mali-T604. Compared to the Mali-400MP4 in the Galaxy S 3, we're seeing more than 2x the performance out of ARM's latest GPU. The T604 is ARM's first unified shader architecture, which gives it far more balanced pixel/vertex shader performance. The result is a more than 4x increase in triangle throughput compared to the Mali 400MP4. It's not enough to give the Nexus 10 the edge over the latest Apple devices, but it's a huge improvement over where ARM was in the previous generation. The Adreno 320 continues to be quite strong here as well.

[Galaxy Note 10.1 General] tenderidol:
I had the same impression while reading the Engadget review. Why the negative tone throughout the article? A few positives that he mentioned were always followed with a "but, ....". I also don't get the "Nexus 7 was premium, this feels cheap" argument. I have a N7 for my son, and it is just mediocre in terms of built quality and the materials used. So, a dotted plastic/rubber is OK, but a coated plastic (with a thin layer of rubber probably) is not OK? Do they have anything against Samsung?
[Galaxy Note 10.1 General] KoRoZIV:
A lot of BS in there... why the hel compare a tablet with a bunch of phones?!? anyway, I stopped trusting online rewievs after my tf700 fiasco. I think most of them are paid by apple in order to hurt their biggest rival. I remember I red about 5 rewievs and all of them put iPad first, tf700 seccond and the note far far down the list. That pos asus does not deserve the money, every component is inferior except the display.
[Galaxy Note 10.1 General] BarryH_GEG:
My bad. I forgot to post the link to the story. It's a preliminary performance review of the N4 and N10 together which is why it looks jumbled. Anand is one of the only reviewers to "out" Asus' IO issues so at least he can be considered somewhat objective.

These news sites don't run a web site, pay for internet connectivity and hire editors for free. They're obviously funded some way but I'll let you use your imagination.
[Galaxy Note 10.1 General] BarryH_GEG:
I agree with you that some sites are pretty flimsy and "garage" operations. Not all are. AnandTech, Swedroid, and GSMArena all put devices through standardized rigorous tests. That's why I rely on those three sites for benchmarks and opinion (even if it's subjective). All three are more like Consumer Reports than Motor Trend in their approach to reviews and rankings.

Here's GSMArena's testing methodology. It's six pages long.

"The GSMArena Labs are tests designed to give an objective account of how a device performs in real-world scenarios. In short, it's about what you can expect from a gadget you're planning to buy. Our tests are constantly being developed and refined to keep up with the latest emerging technology. We aim to give you real results, avoiding convoluted technical jargon, so you can easily compare all tested devices."

How Comes the LG Optimus G is way faster than the Nexus 4 ? Same Resolution, Same Chip! Or is the Nexus 4 limited in Power ?

btt: I would be heavy dissapointed if the 5250 wouldn't be way faster than the 4412!
[Galaxy Note 10.1 General] samir_a:
Surprisingly note 10.1 is missing in comparison

---------- Post added at 03:25 AM ---------- Previous post was at 03:22 AM ----------

Because it's optimized and n4 is running stock version this answers the question I guess to those who said stock is faster
[Galaxy Note 10.1 General] BarryH_GEG:
It's not. It shuts out the hardest part of the test due to stress and the score is based only on the (easy) parts that were completed.

Despite being based on the same hardware, the Optimus G is able to post a much higher score here than the Nexus 4. The explanation is simple: the Optimus G can't complete a single, continuous run of GLBenchmark 2.5 - the app will run out of texture memory and crash if you try to run through the entire suite in a single setting. The outcome is that the Optimus G avoids some otherwise nasty throttling. The Nexus 4 on the other hand manages to complete everything, but likely quickly throttles its clocks down due to thermal constraints. The Nexus 4 was really hot by the end of our GLBenchmark run, which does point to some thermal throttling going on here. I do wonder if the Snapdragon S4 Pro is a bit too much for a smartphone, and is better suited for a tablet at 28nm.​

I had a G2X and am wary of any LG product because of it. The Optimus G is already having overheating problems and based on what Anand said above it could carry over to the N4 also. The GN got great reviews when it first came out then in people's hand it turned out to have a dim display, crappy camera, and dismal battery life. For those interested in the N4 I'd advise waiting until it's been in people's hand a while before pulling the trigger. It's not like they're going to run out.

One big problem: I did most of my testing with the screen brightness set to maximum. I noticed it dip considerably after about 10 or 15 minutes of benchmarking. When I checked on it in the phone's Settings, I saw the brightness level had dropped down to 66 percent. I tried to turn it back up, and got the message, "Unable to brighten more due to high temperature. Try again later." This happened on multiple occasions. Especially when using processor-intensive applications like games, the top half of the phone became increasingly warm. LG claims it has not encountered this problem, but this (AT&T) device, along with two test units on Sprint all showed the same behavior in our tests.

http://www.pcmag.com/article2/0,2817,2411169,00.asp​

---------- Post added at 07:58 PM ---------- Previous post was at 07:44 PM ----------

Anand didn't test it. GSMArena did but used different benchmarking tools. Here's the two that were common. Don't underestimate the things Samsung's done to optimize the s/w for the Note's h/w. There are no platform specific optimizations on a Nexus device. Of course that could change once the devs get their hands on it.

SunSpider (Lower is Better)

1194 - Note 10.1

1384 - N10

2101 - TF700 (ICS)

BrowserMark (Higher is Better)

Note: this works on every single rom for the sgw i have tried alot and all ended up with success, now i'm using the AOKP JB and it works.

And a tip: you'll lose your apps if they are on the sdcard so you should move them to phone memory==>swap==>then move to sdcard(external_sd)
