i see, ouch for that :p

btw is it normal to have lag on galaxy tab?

i did say i put a lot of widget though

anybody put a lot of widget in their tab and still no lag at all? or is it just me?

1 of the reason for me to upgrade the firmware though
[Galaxy Tab General] teh_cg:
the laggy inTAB i still accept....have u try out Galaxy S which is not tweak at all......u will feel it.......
[Galaxy Tab General] louie23:
Guys,

Are there any "detailed step by step guide" on how to flash our Gtab to new firmware?

Sorry for the noob question.

Thanks!!!
[Galaxy Tab General] teh_cg:
go samfirmware download the latest firmware.and download the odin.And remeber do not select repartition ....unless this firmware is full flash.......so far i know is euro firmware XWJJ4 is full flash,,,,,,,
[Galaxy Tab General] Justin^Tan:
All I do is just flash the PDA to dxjk2. No hassle no pit no repartition. I want to upload my SS but it says dif format. But mine is jk2 now
[Galaxy Tab General] teh_cg:
Hi Justin might to share the PDA,CSC,phone version.U may type

*#1234# to check on this.By the way what is SS u mean???are u direct from DXJJ1 to DXJK2??How abt the battery????running smooth????
[Galaxy Tab General] Justin^Tan:
yup, directly,

the thing is ,on samfirmware, all the pit is already P1

thats why we dont need full flash

the one on eur is an upgrade from 816 to P1, thats why they need to upgrade it to JJ4 1st as that was the 1st firmware with P1 pit

my SS of that *#1234# of course, but xda wont let me upload it, dunno why

i'll just type it here then

PDA:P1000DXJK2

PHONE:P1000DXJJ2

CSC:P1000OLBJJ2
[Galaxy Tab General] teh_cg:
How about your base band version???you may go setting>about phone....and you will see baseband version,kernel version....mine one is Baseband version P1000DXJJ1,Kernel version 2.6.32.9 root@se-s604#4......by the way what is SS mean???i still cannot get what meaning of SS??
[Galaxy Tab General] Justin^Tan:
the baseband is P1000DXJJ2, weird it is nt JK2 hehe

kernel is 2.6.32.9 root@SE-S604#1

build number Froyo.DXJK2

SS is screenshot, u can make ur tab capture ur screen

so the baseband is Phone, build number is PDA, dunno bout CSC
[Galaxy Tab General] teh_cg:
oh......mine one still can screenshot.....press back key + power....still hear capture sound......but now i noticed that battery is quit fast run up.....how abt u??after that battery run smooth??
[Galaxy Tab General] Justin^Tan:
lol, mine can too, but i cant upload here using xda app directly

dunno why

it says the picture is in different format, thats why i dont attach my SS

battery is almost the same, around 69-70% in the morning i go to work, at 6 am

45% now at 4pm

wifi on all the time

18 h since unplugged, and i just realise that gallery is eating away the battery

it must be from the moment i want to upload my SS

oh, and FYI, Gallery app is bugged

it will consume your battery even if you dont use it again

power it off and on again
[Galaxy Tab General] teh_cg:
oh........is ok...just use shootme this software...but it doesn't matter as long as it not firmware problem or hardware problem..........cheers......
[Galaxy Tab General] bjaringer:
No problem if u flash urself.. I done mine once.. Coz last time i apply some galaxy s battery mode n endup cannot bootup.. So i flash n everything went back normal.
[Galaxy Tab General] teh_cg:
Hey,,,after flash to DXJK2....got any changed????Like battery or software issue??IS that Gallery app still the issue???
[Galaxy Tab General] Justin^Tan:
somehow battery is better for me, dunno if its only me, or i didnt use my tab as INSANE as i'm getting it for the 1st time

hehe

and it seems charging faster via notebook usb

gallery still bugged though
[Galaxy Tab General] teh_cg:
tht good....but my DXJJ2 seem like charging USB time is very very slow...not like from AC plug....is that FAST mean tht same like AC PLUG??
[Galaxy Tab General] blackheart2925:
Hi am from India and my tab versions as follows -

PDA: P1000DDJJ1

PHONE: P1000DDJI6

CSC: P1000DDJJ1

any idea whether this require the firmware update?
[Galaxy Tab General] Justin^Tan:
no way charging from USB is as fast as from AC plug ^^

its still take a long time

hmm, on samsung language JJ means 10-10

DD is ur area

so that firmware is from October 10

the latest should be JK2, or 3 if there's a new changelog or whatsoever

but again, i dont know for sure unless u check it urself on samfirmware.com and see the firmware list for India, or at least has the same DD code on it
[Galaxy Tab General] blackheart2925:
^^ thanks for the tip. The samfirmware site shows the latest update as JJ7 for my region. Not sure what benefits would be there for moving from JJ1 to JJ7...funny thing is Kies shows no updates when the tab is connected...wonder why :-(
[Galaxy Tab General] VNPython:
Hi all, after reading with interest about firmware. i would like to ask the seniors here on some issue regards to original language after you reset the tab via the android panel:

I got the following on my Vietnamese Tab:

PDA: DXJK2

Phone: DXJJ2

CSC: OLBJJ2

and after resetting the tab using 'Privacy' > Factory Data Reset, the tab restart and showed Vietnamese Language! I am from Singapore and hope to set my tab to English like those bought in Singapore or Malaysia.

If anyone knows how to do away the Vietnamese Language, please kindly share how-to

regards :)
[Galaxy Tab General] Justin^Tan:
can't u just change it on locale and text? and change the language?

mine is also DXJK2, i got english on reboot (2nd flash)

if i remember correctly, it boots into indonesian the 1st time

well, DX is the code for south east asia anyway, so it can be any language in the range

when i tried changing my imei to another country, i only get as far as korea, no europe or us

maybe thats the CSC problem
[Galaxy Tab General] VNPython:
i did change to english after Factory Data Reset but when i Factory Data Reset again, still in Vietnamese once the reboot is over :... (

edit: after reading about Multi-CSC, managed to change from VNese CSC to Singtel's CSC. more info read http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=779580
[Galaxy Tab General] teh_cg:
Just Update to DXJK2.....seem like the touch screen more sensitive.That Is good for me.Cheers...
[Galaxy Tab General] fastcx:
Plug in to kies, new firmware dxjm4 is out for december already, im from malaysia, it is tons of improvements over previous revision

Plug headphones into XPERIA and I get 20+ radio stations in good qulaity; plug headphones into Omnia 7 and I get static, with the occasional hint of sound if I move the wire around. It's very occasional and very quiet though.

Anyone know what's going on?

Thanks

EDIT: Oh, it works with the included headphones but not with my own ones, even though the XPERIA works with any and all.
[Omnia 7 General] at45:
Does anyone know why this is? Apparently this is the case with a number of recent Samsung handsets. IS it to do with the connector or the wire(s)? If it's the connector then it should be possible to make an adapter.

Thanks

Ya first time i plugged in, it was low, staticy as i didn't push and "click" hard enough so to say, check if anything is blocking the jack. it's a dam snug fit to say the least.

[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Soaa-:
100% success. Any chance of failure is due to error on the user's part. Feel confident in yourself.

[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] shortlived:
Yes 100% safe if you do it right. Take your time read for hours untill you understand what is going on. If you can get adb running you can root your phone. Just make sure you double check everything.

If s off is root why couldn't I get su without running visionary?
[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] r3s-rt:
I'm sorry, I should have clarified. S-Off is *technically* root. When people think of being rooted they think of root for what it is, not root until you reboot and then have to root again. S-Off allows a more "true root" is probably a better way to put it. I didn't mean as soon as you get s-off you have su automatically, but s-off lets it stay there.

[Captivate General] MikeyMike01:
That's not what he's looking for.

AT&T has the poorest network of the big four, so their coverage map is deliberately misleading.

If you've seen the Verizon ads with the AT&T 3G map, you see how bad it is.

Other carriers are rolling out 4G, and AT&T can't even get a decent 3G network up and running.

Sent from my Captivate
[Captivate General] jc2470:
so true att last one to update to 4g, they like to say how much coverage they have and fastest 3g network, yea if u can get on it u drop to edge in so many places its pathetic. I wish verizon had coverage here its about only place that doesnt have it, much better phone selection. I would switch back to droid x on the spot.
[Captivate General] l7777:
Wow I can't believe they did that. That map is an out and out lie to anyone looking to compare 3g data coverage. Supposedly AT&T has already upped 80% of their network, presumable their pathetically small 3g network, to HSPA+ but are only making it available to datacard users.
[Captivate General] fatttire:
I live in Chicago and don't have 3G much of the time.

If they can't get it working here then where can they?
[Captivate General] skinien:
It's available to datacard users only because at&t doesn't have a phone that supports HSPA+.
[Captivate General] mac208x:
Are you on the southside or something? I have 3g everywhere in ilinois, i do travel alot so i know. There is couple blind spots where there is no coverage at all but otherwise there is 3g everywhere even downtown. But i do have to agree that verizion is ****ting on att now but they think their service is so great that their customer service is horrible! My friend called once too complain about a dropped call and they told him that has never happened and to forget about it. For me sprint is the best carrier outthere atm they have amazing customer service, their phone selection is getting better and their service is awesome!

I live in Boston, MA and we have 3G coverage pretty much everywhere in New England. Good speeds too.

So I'm sorry that AT&T's network might suck elsewhere, but it's never been anything but excellent up here.
[Captivate General] uberjon:
lucky, in northern pa, i have to drive like 1-3 hours to get a 3g signal. AT&T is very miss-leading with their service coverage. '97% of all americans' doesn't mean '97% of all americans have 3G service wherever they go'

Probably more like 10-25% of US soil has 3g signal..
[Captivate General] fatttire:
Near the skyscrapers. I just get a lot of dropped calls, I guess from walking in front of buildings. Sucks when you hit an area that gives you a 50kbs crawl. Still outside.

Funny thing is the iPhone 3GS was worse at reception... I'm doing better with my Cappy

I get 3g just about everywhere here in St.Louis..I've only dropped to lower on the complete northern end of the state and in parts of the Ozark National Forest..This phone totally blows Sprints out of the water as far as coverage and download speeds..

[Captivate General] dsjr2006:
They may not have 3G everywhere, but they have it everywhere I frequent and it's way better having decent speeds. Verizon and Sprint don't even work at my house and they are spotty all around town. T-Mobile doesn't have coverage here at all like most the of US. AT&Ts network is huge and while they may not have 3G everywhere at least there is still some coverage which is more than I can say for Sprint and T-Mobile.
[Captivate General] modest_mandroid:
I don't think I've ever been without 3g coverage in San Diego. We're pretty well covered.
[Captivate General] secretasianman:
The best coverage maps are user verified maps... ie Sensorly Mapviewer maps. I wish everyone used that app.

Agreed. In Texarkana (east Texas) I have 100% 3G coverage, inside and outside.

[Captivate General] nkrick:
You do realize that no US carrier has ANY 4G service yet, don't you? Sprint has a non-4G WiMAX (I don't think the 4G WiMAX specs are even final yet). T-Mobile is calling HSDPA+ "4G." If that is the case, then AT&T also has 4G, but it is NOT 4G, just a faster version of 3G. Verizon is rolling out a Gen 1 LTE network which is also only 3G. Verizon will likely be able to upgrade its new 3G LTE network to 4G later on, but just because it is LTE does not mean it is 4G.

AT&T and T-Mobile have no reason to roll out 3G LTE, or even the first 4G version of LTE because the fact is that HSDPA+ is able to reach as high of speeds as the first couple of LTE versions can reach. AT&T will start implementing LTE 4G technology (when it is available) so that they can more rapidly scale to higher 4G speeds in the future without having to implement an all new network when HSDPA+ is tapped out. Verizon pretty much has to jump into 3G LTE because EDVO is already maxed out and doesn't compete with HSDPA much less HSDPA+ in terms of speed.

Talking about 2G, 3G, and 4G just in terms of speed overly simplifies things as there are several other requirements besides just data transfer speeds. In terms of just speed, Edge is actually a 3G network and is a similar speed as the original EVDO (non Rev 1, A or B). Since some portion of Verizon's 3G network is not EVDO Rev 1, A or B and nearly all of AT&T's network supports Edge at a minimum, just in terms of speed, there is probably not a huge difference

between Verizon and AT&T. I would love to see a real Verizon map that shows EVDO, EVDO Rev1, and EVDO Rev A on their network compared side-by-side with an AT&T map that shows HSDPA+, HSDPA, and Edge. Verizon will never release a map like that though.
[Captivate General] cappysw10:
That map is complete bullsh$@! What it shows for where I live and what we get are COMPLETELY different.
[Captivate General] mmm_tacos:
Come to central Illinois. I get 3g (barely) when I'm in Springfield, but that is it. Everywhere else is Edge.
[Captivate General] Lucke:
to add to this... the International Telecommunication Union (ITU) finally defined "4G" as delivering peak download speeds of approximately 100Mbps in high-mobility environments (cell phones) and peak download speeds of approximately 1Gbps in low-mobility environments. Current technologies such as WiMAX, LTE and HSPA+ certainly do not meet these criteria.

http://www.bgr.com/2010/11/03/the-4g-forgery/
[Captivate General] nkrick:
If you like links and want actual figures, cnet has more information: http://news.cnet.com/8301-30686_3-20023581-266.html . The short version is that speed wise, the differences between AT&T's HSPA+, T-Mobile's HSPA+, Sprint's WiMAX, and Verizon's LTE is essentially a wash. I guess the good thing for our friends on Verizon is that they are finally getting an actual 3G network (simultaneous voice and data is a requirement for 3G).
[Captivate General] Magic_Bunny:
AT&T has waaaaaay better coverage than T-Mobile and Sprint.
[Captivate General] foxbat121:
Speed is just one factor. With WiMAX and LTE, the latency are much lower, closer to your home broadband latency while HSPA+ latency are still way up there (200 to 300 ms). Anyone who plays games know latency is much more important than actual speed itself.

I'd consider WIMAX and LTE as the true next generation data network. However, LTE seems to be a standard widely adopted world wide. WIMAX will eventually die.
[Captivate General] bay_wolf:
Agreed. I see all the hate toward AT&T but I (so far...) have never had any issues with them or dropped calls (yes, that is correct zero dropped calls after 5 years with them). And with the JK4 Modem I get 5mbs down and 2.5 up so I can't complain since I have unlimited data for $30 a month.
[Captivate General] diablo009:
I live in Atlanta and have 3g/H coverage literally everywhere I move
[Captivate General] cavsoldier19d:
Ultimately, what this boils down to, is which provider has better coverage and speed in your area or areas you frequent. I have lived in the central florida area all of my life, and have always had AT&T going back to the bellsouth mobility days. The only time that I ever had problems was when the whole iphone generation happened because AT&T didn't upgrade their network to be able to handle it. Obviously, thats no longer an issue. So IMO, it's your own fault that you didn't do your due diligence and find out what provider has the best coverage in your area. So stop *****ing. :-)
[Captivate General] ballz0iron:
sprint has THE WORST COVERAGE, well, atleast in the US....
[Captivate General] groves226:
Real kicker is that Verizon is not even 3G but 2G since 3G calls for simultaneous voice and data.

Now most 3G tech is just highly advanced 2G analog tech. 4G is to be pure digital like a mobile 802.11G/N.
[Captivate General] zelendel:
Or your only real choice lol We only have one of the big four here, ATT is it unless you go with a regional company here. But flawless 3G in town.
[Captivate General] mrd49:
Actually, AT&T is rolling out LTE right now. I don't know when the network is going to be activated but they are currently installing the necessary hardware upgrades in the towers. I interviewed with AT&T for a position with the group that updates towers from 2G to 3G and they taked about how sometimes they are simultaneously adding 3G and LTE capabilities to the towers.

I've been an AT&T customer since the mid-1980's and have never had a dropped call in any populated area in the USA. I travel a lot so that rules out non-GSM carriers such as Verizon. In the Tampa Bay area I have HSPA everywhere outdoors. Indoors is a different story.

AFAIK AT&T currently sells 2 handsets that are HSPA+ capable - Atrix and Inspire.

Wifi uses much less battery than edge/3g/H. And when using wifi your data connection should automatically turn off. So it will save battery when you are connected to wifi.
[Captivate General] foxbat121:
Not if you leave it on but don't have much data activity as posted above.
[Captivate General] WirelessMike:
I have to agree with this, as well, although I feel I should be precise in saying that where I am on a regular basis, AT&T provides the best service.

I make this claim because I am fortunate to have friends that also have android phones (one friend has a G2 on T-Mobile and another 2 have Droid X on Verizon), and whenever we go out to new places (typically to eat lunch) we do bandwidth comparisons using the speedtest.net app, and believe it or not, I always have the best d/l and u/l results.

I can't complain, but I certainly understand if this is not true for others. I can only speak for my own experience in the areas I roam.

Unfortunately, I have no basis for comparison with Sprint.
