1. Hardware-wise, the iPad has an IPS screen, while the Galaxy only has TN Film. Quite a difference.

Yeah, it doesn't have goodies like 256+M RAM and camera, but, in everyday life, at least the former isn't that big a problem.

2. Don't even bother comparing Android, which is stated NOT to be a tablet OS by Google itself, to a 100% tablet-friendly iOS...

3. What's wrong with iTunes? The iPad has excellent third party apps. And if you really hate iTunes / AppStore, you can always jailbreak it and use Cydia instead...
[General Topics] needtogetoutmore:
I believe the iPad is just a big ass e-book reader...Hell, you don't even get Flash. I know Steve Jobs hates Adobe, but hey...we need flash..lol

With no camera on the ipad, it really is a killer for me. I know it seems sad, but I have thousands of pictures and take about 100 per day(I have no life).

I also prefer the Android OS to the iOS.

Size..I'd rather have 7 then 10..Yes 10 is nice, but I don't think I'll be reading that many books, and Robot Unicorn Attack is prolly the ONLY reason I'd switch OS's

Price..iPad wins that one..lol

My vote...It's your money, get what you want. But this is a ndroid/WinMo forum and you prolly want see many iOS fan boys here

Hope you get what you want.

I own an iPad and for games and stuff they're great! But after playing with a tab id go for tab :p
[General Topics] steelbom:
What do you want it for? They are reasonably similar hardware wise so it comes down to the OS mostly -- I'd give both of them a try if you can.

The Tab has the two camera's, weighs a fair bit less, supports flash and I think it can make calls too; the iPad has better battery life, a larger (IPS) screen, and an abundant amount of apps available. Note, iOS 4.2 is being released this November so the iPad will have multi-tasking, folders, etc.
[General Topics] Cruzer1:
iPad, Not only because I got one, because I kno any Android tablet will be a waste of hardware due to hardly any apps being written speficially for it. Adding a tablet form into the Android market is just increasing the fragmentation if you ask me.

BUT, it really depends on your needs.

If you need the freedom and funcitonality, get the Tab. Though not every app will work.

If the overall user experience matters to you, with a more polished OS and every app able to work on your device, get the iPad. Though you're in a locked environment.

[General Topics] vash1053:
Posting this on an iPad. I love it and it is with almost at all times. I haven't touched the galaxy tab... Somehow android on a tablet doesn't seem very appealing. I've used android phones since the G1 (I have a MyTouch 4g now), however, and I love it and prefer it over iOS as a phone operating system. Having the iPad in conjunction with it lets me have my cake and eat it too.

[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Androideric:
When I make a phone call, my phone vibrates and 3g turns off, in the middle of most conversations, 3g comes back on and turns off the call. The only way around this is if my phones plugged in. Then it just vibrates and 3g turns on and 15-20 minutes later it vibrates and 3g turns off.

Any help would be appreciated. If I HAVE to go back to the stock rom I will, I'm just at my ends with this.

I am currently using Fresh Evo 3.4.01, and it was installed with a fresh wipe. Before that I was using Damageless 3.6. This problem occured both times.

[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] xHausx:
You can only use one at a time. It sounds like you have an app that's trying to force your 3G to turn on and is dropping your call as a result.

Do you have a lot of apps with root permissions? They shouldn't be able to do that otherwise.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Androideric:
I have no apps besides wireless tethering that uses root permission. I have superuser 2.3.6.1 installed.

Ok so I just want to double check here, with the EVO I can multi-task like crazy -- even during a phone call unless it is an application that uses 3g/4g/wifi settings?

Thanks for the quick response, I intend to buy you a beer in about 10 days.

I just wanted to confirm. in my "bar" at the top.. the 3g is supposed to GO AWAY when I make a phone call, and come back when im done?
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] xHausx:
Yup, WiFi and 4G should be able to work when you are on a call but the technology doesn't allow for both 3G and Voice at the same time. Once you make a call your 3G icon should disappear and then come back once your call has ended.

And thanks for the beer :) It's always appreciated.

After flashing the XXJP2 firmware, I've found an application which is called ScreenCaptureService.apk in /system/app directory.

Then I thought it was a sort of capturing tool.

I've tried to press as many key combinations as I could but it didn't work.

Now, I'm wondering if it's the one what I'm thinking or not.

What's your idea?

I know, of course, I can take a screenshot with some apps by rooting my device.

Builtin Screenshot Function

Hey folks,

Yesterday I made something on my I9000 JPO and this little notificatin popup did what it sometimes does and told me that a screenshot has been made and saved. I was surprised and happy at the same time. The screenshot realy was saved on my phone.

I used the DB Railnavigator at that time and have Launcher Pro installed. And I remember my thumb doing something near the back button.

I can't remember to have a special application installed to do that.

Is it possible that there is a built-in screenshot function in froyo that does this?

Taking Screenshot on Samsung Galaxy S GT-I9000 w/o Rooting

I'm not sure whether this function exists since Android 2.1-update1 or only in the recent Android 2.2.

However, if you have yet to realize. You now can start taking screenshot on your phone without rooting it!

Just simply tap on your Back key, hold on to it and tap on your Home key until the Shutter sound is produced.

PS: Screen captured are saved in /sdcard/ScreenCapture.

Not sure if this is news but in order to enter Bootloader mode for your HTC Mozart do the following (same as HTC LEO):

Power Off the device

Press and hold the volume down button and switch the phone on

Hard Reset

To Hard Reset your device perform the following (once again same as HTC LEO):

Power Off the device

Press and hold both volume up and volume down buttons while switching on

The hard reset screen gives two options: Restore defaults for the hard reset (volume up) and CRC check for the OEM software(?) (volume down). Any other key cancels

Hi. Have you or anyone learned WP7/this mtty/spl commands?

Take a look at LEO70 ROM (Cotulla/DFT HD2 Windows 7) using MAGLDR as this is very interesting:

Cotulla has created, after hspl in boot chain, magldr, which creates special nand partitions that strap a SIMULACRUM (LEO1000 MFG) SPL "emulation" which then BOOTS WINDOWS 7 ON HD2 (which I have now activated complete and am on LIVE!).

Point is: very interesting spl/simulacrum idea - having essentialy two spl on hd2.

I can talk to it completely using proper drivers and mtty drivers and do few things - but it is not real - it is simulation to allow strapping yet it could be reverse engineered and made into another "hspl" for all Windows 7 Phones I think.
