[Galaxy Note 10.1 (2014 Edition) Q&A, Help & Troubl] dalinian:
Tell my truth and shame the devil - that's what I'll do

Hi toyanucci,

Thanks for the heads up on Super AMOLED screened Samsung tablet rumours, which I’ve chosen to explore as well, being as how I am myself planning to order my SGN 10.1 2014 LTE within a week.

As an atheist, I’m no more expecting a second coming than I am the opportunity to buy “The Ultimate Tablet”, at any point in my life. My SGN 10.1 2014 LTE will be my 13th palmtop computer since 1989…

…so I’ve a clear perspective on buying digital convergence technology: a puter in the hand today is worth two in the rumour bush of tomorrow, and tomorrow, and tomorrow (to mix idiom with the bard).

As you can see, I favour the stylus as an input peripheral, and it seems to me that Samsung do too, in that the S-Pen’s software interactions just keep on improving with each new Note released. So I’m c. 75% confident that omneity and rosrog are correct in suspecting that the [ 8 | 10 | 10.5 ] inch Super AMOLED screens (reportedly rumoured by Korean tech news sites as entering mass production for Samsung) will emerge in non-S-Pen equipped tablets, eg: ‘Galaxy Tab 4’, announced at CES (07-10 January 2014, in Las Vegas), and launched worldwide around March-April. Later in the year, one or more Super AMOLED screened 'Galaxy Note [ 8 | 10 | 10.5 ] 2015 Edition(s)' will likely be announced at IFA 2014 (05-10 September, in Berlin), and launched worldwide around October.

So if you can do without the S-Pen interactions, and can wait 3-4 months for a Super AMOLED screened ‘Galaxy Tab 4’, you may want to cancel your SGN 10.1 2014 order. Since I’m after S-Pen interactions, and expect the SGN 10.1 2014’s '2560 x 1600 SUPER CLEAR LCD’ screen will far surpass the 2008-vintage 1920 x 1200 TFT LCD MacBook Pro screen on which I’m writing this, I’m sufficiently content to be ordering one soon.

Hope this opinion may help in your decision making process,

Dalinian

I think there are three things to look out for here

- While an AMOLED display will be pretty neat, its resolution will likely be 1920x1080 as opposed to 2560x1600.

- The leaked model number suggests it's a 'Galaxy Tab' device, which means it won't have the pen/digitizer combo

- The last Galaxy Tab device that could be considered 'high-end' was the Tab 7.7 with its Exynos dual processor. Since then, almost all Galaxy Tabs have had lower performing Atom or OMAP chips with 1GB of RAM. Given that Samsung had the audacity to launch its atom-running, 1GB-RAM-sporting, pixelly-1280x800-screened Tab 3 at $499, its entirely possible that the new one will have the same underwhelming internals with an inflated pricetag justified by the flashy new display.

I know a bit about holding out for the best tech, it's always just around the corner and when it finally arrives the next one is announced and the wait begins again lol. That being said, 8weeks wait wont kill me. I already have a ipad 4 I can keep using till then.

Re the stylus, I have a note 3 and I've used the spen probably twice so I'm not sure I'd be using it on a tab much more. My main use would be web browsing and media consumption (I'm a musician who travels often, I'm talkin several 16 hour flights a year and even more 16hr drives!). As long as the amoled tab isn't completely low spec'd I'd go with it otherwise it'd jus be a 8 week delay in getting my note 10.1 2014 lol.
[Galaxy Note 10.1 (2014 Edition) Q&A, Help & Troubl] BarryH_GEG:
If you wait for that "rumored" device to be released you'll never buy anything. There's always going to be a "next" device. If in fact there is a 10.5" G-Tab 4 with an AMOLED display it's not going to have superior specs to the Note 10.1-14. The G-Tab 3 10.1 launched at $399 (it's now $299) and here's its specs which aren't anything to write home about.

http://www.samsung.com/us/mobile/galaxy-tab/GT-P5210ZWYXAR-specs

So its replacement should logically be around the same price point with additional features And how great its AMOLED display is (if in fact it has one) will all depend on the resolution and, depending on the PPI, whether being PenTile will impact it. I highly doubt the G-Tab 4 will be priced above $399 (even that's a stretch) and for that price point you're not going to get N10.1-14 specs.

The N10.1-12 lasted as Samsung's flagship large tablet for over a year. There's no reason to think the just launched N10.1-14 won't follow in its footsteps.
[Galaxy Note 10.1 (2014 Edition) Q&A, Help & Troubl] toyanucci:
"According to a shipping manifest leaked to the Korean media, the tablet, known internally as SM-T331, will come with an import price of $550 (£345), putting it in the high-end category. Theories suggest it could be a larger variant of the upcoming Samsung Galaxy Tab 4."

"Earlier rumblings point to the 10-incher being positioned as a rival to Apple's iPad Air, suggesting the device might well feature a super-high resolution AMOLED panel. ETNews writes that Samsung hopes to sell around ten time as many of these new tablets as its last AMOLED-based slate, the Galaxy Tab 7.7. That device shifted just 500,000 units, the outlet reports."

That means it may not be a tab 4 per say based on that pricing and the fact that it will be positioned to rival the iPad Air, but my interest isn't if it's branded a tab 4 or not, it's that screen!!
[Galaxy Note 10.1 (2014 Edition) Q&A, Help & Troubl] Russbad:
I can wait a few more weeks

CES 2014 is in about 2 weeks, Jan 7-10. That's probably when the rumored tablets will be announced and I can wait a couple more weeks to make up my mind depending on the actual specs. I may still get the Note 10.1 2014, if anything hopefully the price will go down with the arrival of newer tablets. Another benefit of waiting is hopefully development would have picked up and a proper root will be out without tripping Knox and maybe the U.S. version of the SM-P605 with the Qualcom SOC will be out.
[Galaxy Note 10.1 (2014 Edition) Q&A, Help & Troubl] BarryH_GEG:
I think you're taking some questionable rumors and morphing that in to what you're looking for personally. Samsung's the king of niches so perhaps they could be creating a small-volume high-priced non-Note 10+" Android tablet. Then again it could be crossed wires and in fact a replacement for the G-Tab 3 is coming because it's due.

Samsung gets away with premium pricing on the Note-series because of their unique productivity and creation features which help differentiate them from high-end iPads. A big screened Android tablet (even with an AMOLED display) isn't going to sell; especially at iPad Air prices. 10" Android tablets have always been slugs sales wise because just used for consumption the iPads provide a better experience. For the same price, the masses (not garage tinkerers and XDA'rs) would buy the "original" and the status that comes with it. Android tablets are gaining ground solely on price and the majority are 7-8" and under $250. A $500 10+" standard (non-Note) Android tablet is going to sit on the shelves gathering dust; even if it has a non-PenTile 4K AMOLED display.

As for the display, the G-Tab 7.7 had a 800x1280 display with 196 PPI which by today's standards is average at best. The resolution on the mystery tablet we're discussing has to be standard (16:9/10) so that apps are compatible with it. So if it is 10.5" it'll have at most 2560x1600 like the N10.1-14 but stretched out over a larger viewing area which means it'll have a lower PPI (below 299). None of Samsung's ultra high-resolution AMOLED panels (yet) have been non-PenTile. You can't detect the PenTile sub-pixel arrangement at 441 PPI (SGS4) or 388 PPI (N3) but you might when you're in the 200's.

My N3's AMOLED and N10.14-14 is LCD. Both have what I consider excellent displays and as I bounce between them I don't think "shoot, I wish they were both AMOLED or LCD." Just because the mystery tablet's rumored to be AMOLED isn't reason alone to worship its display; it depends on the specific AMOLED panel Samsung uses and its specs. There are pros and cons for both AMOLED and LCD but as technology advances both the pros and cons are narrowing. I care more about the quality of my display then whether it's AMOLED or LCD.

Here's a great article that talks about some of the newer display tech like LTSP and IGZO and the impact they are having on display quality and battery performance. The days of just saying "AMOLED's great!" universally are pretty much over. There's a lot more at play than just the underlying display technology.

[Galaxy Note 10.1 (2014 Edition) Q&A, Help & Troubl] Note10.1Dude:
Wait sounds reasonable for you based on the fact that you have a Note and don't use the stylus.

I was waiting on a new Nexus 10. When that didn't come, I went for the note 10.1. I forgot how natural I find a stylus (was a previous Newton owner) and rarely touch the screen without the stylus. I now wouldn't trade - but I really wish this were a Google Experience device with the pen enhancements added on as a Samsung app package - I really don't need touchwhiz.
[Galaxy Note 10.1 (2014 Edition) Q&A, Help & Troubl] Eric214:
I'm not sure I'd want the amoled screen. It won't be as bright as the lcd note 10.1 2014 screen. Plus with amoled screens you have to worry much more about screen burn in then with say a GS4 since usage will be different. A phone you're all over the place on and off but a tablet your using it for MUCH longer stretches at a time. That means maybe greater chance of notification bar burn in among other things.

Also 1 other thing. Not all amoleds are made equal. Some are 3 color pixels and others like the GS4 are 2 color pixels. Samsung trends to like the 2 color variety (GS4 and Note 3 come to mind)

Just my 2 cents to make you think of everything before you buy.

Ordering – after CES 2014 in Las Vegas

Thanks, Russbad :good: – between yourself and toyanucci, I'm persuaded to gently postpone ordering my SGN 10.1 2014 LTE until after CES 2014, too. My pre-purchase notes now contain:

Ordering – after CES 2014 in Las Vegas

Wait until Samsung tablet product announcements at CES, 07-10 January 2014, in Las Vegas.

Reasons to Wait #1: confirmation that the SGN 10.1 2014 LTE 32GB Black is indeed the tablet for me.

Reasons to Wait #2: possible price drop in wake of the Samsung tablet product announcements at CES.

You are, indeed and of course, THE best judge of your own, your very own, use case scenario – predicated on sound prior experience, clear sighted anticipated needs, faultless logic and good common sense. Like Note10.1Dude above, I got switched on to the stylus as natural precision input peripheral by the genius of the Apple Newton MessagePad, and would so strongly prefer an S-pen; but if you personally havn't taken to using your SGN 3's S-pen, then that's what's right for you, and therefore a non-stylus Super AMOLED G-Tab would no doubt be no real drawback.

I guess there may well be a flurry of post-CES tablet ordering in mid-Jan 2014, eh? :fingers-crossed:

[Galaxy Note 10.1 (2014 Edition) Q&A, Help & Troubl] toyanucci:
With the latest news surrounding the Tab and Note Pro's, It would definately make sense to wait so I cancelled my order of the note 10.1 2014 from amazon. I can wait a few weeks. And though I don't see myself using the spen alot, if the Tab Pro is too low spec's I'll definately be aiming for the Note Pro though I'll probably need to see what a 12.2 Tablet looks like size wise.
[Galaxy Note 10.1 (2014 Edition) Q&A, Help & Troubl] sheepybach:
I'm kind of in the same boat as I'm updating my Tabs and have been waiting to see if a New Nexus 10 and/or a new Samsung Tab comes along. lol
[Galaxy Note 10.1 (2014 Edition) Q&A, Help & Troubl] toyanucci:
Well, no amoled but the new tablets are pretty interesting especially the magazine ux. I suppose the note 10.1 2014 will get the 4.4.2 update and also a price cut following this announcement. The 2014 note 10.1 is actually up to par specs wise as it uses the same screen, same processor and same resolution as the newly announced tablets. I am hoping the new tabs have an improved charger though so it will charge faster. I also noticed that with the 12" tablets, the charging port (which is usb 3 on the 12" tabs) is located on the side which is perfect, as you can consume content while charging the device as opposed to the 2014 note 10.1 and the tabpro 10.1 and below which has the charging port on the bottom.

What do you guys think of the new tabs?
[Galaxy Note 10.1 (2014 Edition) Q&A, Help & Troubl] BarryH_GEG:
If it's implemented like the N3 you'll get faster data transfers when connected to a Windows host that supports USB 3.0 but not much else.

There’s been a lot of talk about the presence of USB 3.0, even though the micro B connector type has been around for considerable time already and in a ton of devices. The Note 3 just has the misfortune of apparently being many people’s first exposure to the connector, whose awkward double lobed shape gives it forwards compatibility with microUSB 2.0. The rightmost region is just the familiar microUSB 2.0 connector, the left contains the pins for SuperSpeed signaling for 3.0. Plug something into the right 2.0 jack and you get 2.0 speed for transfers and charging. 3.0 at present should give you faster transfer rate (it doesn't in practice as you'll soon see), and eventually faster charging, but the Note 3 continues to use Samsung’s 2.0 amp charging spec and rate, but more on that later.

The Galaxy Note 3 ships with USB 3.0, unfortunately at least in its current state it doesn't seem to get any benefit from the interface. Although the internal eMMC is capable of being read from at ~100MB/s, sustained transfers from the device over adb averaged around 30MB/s regardless of whether or not I connected the Note 3 to a USB 2.0 or 3.0 host.

Update: USB 3.0 does work on the Note 3, but only when connected to a Windows PC with USB 3.0. Doing so brings up a new option in the "USB Computer Connection" picker with USB 3.0 as an option. Ticking this alerts you that using USB 3.0 might interfere with calls and data, but then switches over. Connection transfer speed is indeed faster in this mode as well, like you'd expect.

It only appears on Windows as well, my earlier attempts were on OS X where this popup option never appears.

This might seem like a silly question, but I "converted" my HTC One to GPE edition. An half hour ago I got a notification that my device was ready to update to 4.2.2. I installed this update, but now I have read that the "normal" HTC One and the GPE have slightly different hardware. Will this cause problems?

Hi guys, I just recently(like 3 days ago) got a Nexus 4. My cousin had installed the stock 4.4.2 Kitkat, and then I flashed Purity Rom(Latest 4.4.2).

After a while I read about SlimBean(4.3) and decided to download and try. I flashed it with CWM and all was well, except Wifi wasn't turning on and the Dialer app took about 10 seconds to select a number, also I couldn't pickup a call because it was really, really laggy. So now I'm back on Purity and currently downloading Paranoid Android 3.99RC2. Should there be any steps/methods I should follow? I am on .98 Baseband, thanks!
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Berrydroidcafe:

Hi there people I thought I'd share my experiences with you.

Recently I bought a 2400mAh battery (NEW) from eBay for a modest 10GBP (with another 11GBP P&P from Hong Kong), and I just want to say it's amazing.

My XDAIIi runs for so much longer now if I was to put a figure on it I'd say around 33-38% on full PDA functions. Which I find well worth it seen as the standard battery costs 19GBP from O2, the only thing is that the battery is bigger by around 5 millimetres, but it comes with its own backplate to allow it to fit snugly into the back of the handset.

I also bought from ebay the other following items:

Poly Carbonate Case (0.99GBP)

Signal Booster (0.99GBP)

The poly carbonate case, I find to be infinatly better than the standard leather case as it fits into your pocket easier (I dont wear the leather case on my belt), but although it lacks memory card holders (as you would get in the leather case) it more than makes up for it as it is way more aesthetically pleasing. A absolute bargain at 99p, but unfortunatly it only is made to take the standard battery and backplate.

The signal booster when I saw it I must say I was more than a little sceptical over whether it really does work but I thought I'd give it a try anyway. When it arrived I discovered that it was only a very small metal strip set in a sticker, and immeadiatly I thought I had been ripped off, but after fixing it to the inside of the battery backplate I did notice that it does actually make a differenc, however small, a difference is a difference and I definatly notice that calls are now more clearer and tend not to distort as much, but don't think that it will increase your signal enough to make calls in a tunnel lol.

Well for all in all around 30 quids worth on eBay (inc P&P) I'd say that was not too bad.

If anyone else knows of any good aftermarket products, especially a aluminium/metal or poly carbonate case that will accomidate the extra large backplate then please let me know.
