If you are getting it cheap , its worth it. Personally Id get a Nexus 7 but I've got the "Droid bug" , hence me upgrading to a Nexus 7 (32 GB WiFi) ( Same price as a new Samsung equivalent tablet)But out of the box the SGT2 7 works as its meant to.

Samsung has made a nice job of the ROM you get. Nice apps like the media player are good. Nice well made widgets as well, Chrome works well on the tab and the default browser is ok, The default e mail links to your accounts. WiFi works good.Obviously Google Apps are installed already.

All in all its not a bad tab , just better ones are out for a similar price now. I'm sure a lot of us regret buying this Tab and not getting/waiting for the Nexus 7...but that's the way it works and how technology is now days.

End of the day its your choice. :laugh:

Ok, i own a 3g one so...

I use it as my main phone, the SMS(Messaging) app works very well, the dialer looks nice and responds quickly.
[Galaxy Tab 2 General] jasonchauhk:
i have the 3g tab 2 7.0, and I'm loving it!! :)

i seldom use it as a phone since i have had a GS3 already

after upgrading it to jelly bean i find it really smooth and responsive!!

the storage is enough for me because i moved most of my game data to the external sd card

the only thing i think isn't so gd is the resolution of the LCD

compare with the 720p amoled of the GS3 i think 1024x600 is quite fuzzy...

however i really recommend you to try it yourself, as the nexus 7 is also a very good choice of performance ;)

I have the same case, but in black. It works well to protect the phone. The bundled screen protector is crap though
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Breunibär:
Silicon case & wifi/gps-reception

I use a much thicker rubber case, which adds more grip to the smooth aluminium and never experienced any issiues.

but I found this Post/Thread and can confirm that the Wifi and/or GPS reception is better without any case!

Hi!

This case is good, I had a bag like case with aluminum protection in it, but after a while It's skin damaged and aluminum makes my phone scratchy!

Now I use such the first post cover + a screen protector!

Sorry for very bad English!

[7" Kindle Fire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] SKORPiO1975:
Which amazon apps can we safely un install without risking unbootable device? I'm not into book reading and all and want to make this thing as close to a tablet as possible. I got it as a Christmas gift so I can't return it. There are a lot of Amazon apps that I will never use. All they do is take up space. I already rooted it and installed many apps so it works great so far.

Any information would be great.

Regards. Bart.

Amazon Apps - Bloat

SKORPiO1975,

You can safely remove:

1. Amazon

2. Amazon GameCircle

3. Amazon Kindle

4. Amazon MP3

5. Amazon Video

6. Appstore

7. Exchange Services

8. Kindle Setup

9. Kindle Special Offers

10. Kindle Tutorial

11. KindleStoreWebApp

There are a few others that fall in the borderline category - I did not include these in the above list.

The above services can safely be removed from /system/app without fear of Bricking the Kindle.

Sorry for the delayed response.

So I can just go into system/app with ESfile and delete?
[7" Kindle Fire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Redwolf379:

I think this is related to the topic so...

I accidentally uninstalled original kindle fire Calendar.apk (and all the related calendar services).

Can anyone please do a backup of all the system apps and send a link to me, or post it here?

Thanks in advance!
[7" Kindle Fire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] charmangler:
What is the purpose of removing these? Is it only for storage space or do they actively use memory?
[7" Kindle Fire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mindmajick:
You can download the update bin file. Rename to .zip and extract away.

Removed Calendar.apk - Attached Copy

fbarros,

No worries, we have attached a fresh copy of the Calendar.apk to this response. Please unzip it before

you install it. You need the entire /system/app folder too?:confused: - Well here it is, the entire fresh copy

of /system/app - you may download it from here: https://dl.dropbox.com/u/54456659/app.zip

Please unzip the app.zip to app prior to using any of the apk's.
[7" Kindle Fire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] prokennexusa:
Clean up the /system/app folder

charmangler,

Very good question charmangler. The primary reason for removing unneeded services or apk's from the /system/app

folder is to increase battery time and to free up memory. Every apk take up memory and resources. Resources

converts to heat, heat converts to energy, energy is battery time.

DVDYETI,

I have seen so many people accidentally delete a critical file like Launcher.apk and end up

with a Brick. I always recommend to either move the apk to /sdcard/Download or rename the

apk, thus disabling it. Try to only delete apk's after you test the Kindle for a few days to make

sure you have not lost a critical service.

No problem, we are always happy to help. How is the AVIC Alice working? Have you done any customization

Kindle Fire Utility

RushNY,

We are in the process of building a custom Kindle Fire utility that would automatically remove (safely)

the Bloat on the Kindle. I know many people who feel uncomfortable working in the /system/app

folder which we understand. The utility is due to release in 3 weeks.
