Samsung.com - Galaxy Tab 10.1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I can't seem to get beyond the "Choose your Samsung experience" page. I've tried both "computer" and "mobile device." Neither worked. Anyone else having this issue? I'm using the stock browser and am not currently interested in another. Was definitely fine before TW.

I'm having the same problem... gave up on it

the tv shows problem on netflix

Ok, I know, not another Netflix post. I know this issue was brought up a couple times in the other Netflix thread, but never got answered so I was thinking maybe we could devote a thread to it. Why can't I click on individual TV episodes? Its like the button to click is missing? Anyone else having these issues? I am running the latest cm7 stable
yes, I am having the same issue... I did notice though, that if you click back, then choose the same tv series, sometimes it will play the next episode (I am also running CM7 stable). Also, now I cannot use the app at all (it worked fine before today)... It says "New version of application is found. You must upgrade to be able to use the application." Then if you click "ok" it takes you to a blank screen and then again back to the error message. Is anyone else having these issues?
I have no issues selecting the individual shows from a TV series.
I click on the series, it opens to give me the overall synopsis and below that lists each individual show for me to choose.

Tweetcaster on Honeycomb

Anyone use this? I've looked everywhere but I just can't seem to work out how to get to the settings?
Settings menu doesn't appear to be enabled on Honeycomb... Like yourself, I poured through every available menu in app and nada.
Might have some luck reporting the issue here: http://tweetcaster.com/feedback
I did pop an email to their support.
I did shoot them something too.
It keeps losing my place, not only on my tablets but my phone too. I've reached out to them via Twitter but didn't really get anywhere, so I emailed them.

[Q] Apps purchased since switch to Google Play won't download?

I seen posts here about apps showing up as purchased that aren't. My case is different. I purchased apps, via Google Play, and now can't download them. Not just to my Xoom, but also my SGS2. I've tried all download fix options on the Google site, even talked to a tech (who asked I do them again, and then respond via email).
Another option would be to do a factory wipe/reset. Since I'm playing around with ICS, I decided to revert back to factory on the Xoom and try again. Still no luck. Just stays at "Starting download". No percentage. No little "downloading..." message under it. Can't even cancel it from downloading.
There probably won't be a real solution here, but while I wait for someone from tech support to get back to me, I may as well ask here. It couldn't hurt.
And I've tried the following options:
Cleared the cache and/or data
Uninstalled updates
Logged in and out of the "Talk" app several times
Rebooted
Tried requesting from the store web page on my desktop
Tried over different wifi networks
Tried over Verizon
Tried over AT&T
Tried with ICS 4.0.3
Tried with Gingerbread 2.3.6
Tried with Honeycomb 3.2.6
Tried with a factor reset/wiped Xoom (using .img files directly from the Motorola web site)
I have plenty of free space available
Did I miss something somewhere? I know if this doesn't get resolved, both of my android devices will have become useless to me.

Everything works now. Contacted Google about it, although they weren't of much use. Within a couple days it miraculously worked again.
But, even when switching back to factory, some apps I downloaded no longer seem to work for tablets. Go figure...
This seems to be a wide spread problem that occurs when first updating to the Play Store. I've seen numerous posts in different forums and for different phones about this issue. From the posts that I've read it usually seems to clear itself up after days of the update. Just give a day or two and try it again.

Those who are having stock browser problems--are you experiencing this?

like some of the people here, my stock browser will hang up and be unresponsive on a regular basis. Sometimes a force close helps, but sometimes, when I look in the Asus Task Manager, or if I go to Settings> Apps > select "Running Apps", the browser doesn't show up, as if it's not even considered running. I usually have to select the app itself from settings > apps and then force close it.
Anyone else find it strange that the device doesn't even show the app as "running"? I don't know what to make of this, but perhaps someone else here does.
BTW, I did try Gary's Key's experimental fix, and got rid of Chrome and flash, rebooted, and then reinstalled Flash, but I'm still having the same problem.

Ya, uninstalling Chrome and Flash didn't work for me either. I want to say that the browser hanging issue has been a problem with mine ever since I got it, but I honestly can't remember for sure. Hopefully this is something that is fixed soon as the browser is probably the most used thing on a tablet, so it is quite an annoying thing to have to deal with.
As far as the browser not showing up in the Running Apps list, I know I have seen the same thing with other apps as well. I'm not sure off the top of my head which Apps they were but I know in the past I have tried to go to the Running Apps list to try and force close an app only to find that it wasn't listed. I had to switch to the All Apps view and found the app that I wanted to kill that way.

Have you tried tapping "Show Cached Processes" in the top-right corner? Android apps might appear to be "running" but are in fact suspended and cached ready to be instantly restored provided that the RAM being used to cache them isn't needed for other purposes.
I havent looked to see if the browser shows up in apps running.....
BUT BY GOD FIX THE BROWSER.....OH THE HUMANITY!!!
I may have 10 apps intalled, stupid ones. Even before I installed ANY apps I would get the "browser not responding...wait/cancel...."
It seems to have gotten worse with the latest updates. Now I get LOCKUPS like others are talking about. Resets havent helped.
Dont know, but this **** is getting old!
EDIT: Why the hell do I have to go thru all these apps, resets, clear caches etc.....the browser should, well just freaking work.
I've noticed more and more browser issues lately. Like playing a game on Facebook.... forget it. Then I get the dreaded wait box. Why can't Google make a browser that actually works?
Do you have plugins set to "always on" or "on demand" in the stock browser? I found that setting them to on demand stops all that. I think it's the flash plugin and the way sites are using it that's causing all the problems.

I get problems with the stock browser with them on "on demand". "Always on" would slow things down too much to leave on anyway.
I had these problems since the Prime's inception.
I really like to see an Internet Explorer for Android. That's how bad the current batch of Android browsers have sucked so bad. I have to turn to IE for hope.

I realize the quasi-joking, but what a horrid comment.
I'm sorry, but I feel that Opera Mini generally does a better job than IE ever thought of: then there's Opera Mobile, it's the only one I'll consider for my phone. ICS Browser+ does a good job of showing you what the stock browser could be. MaxthonPad handles and looks pretty well, I don't personally use gestures and the new tab button is kind of in a bad place IMO.
Anyway, nothing I've tried has remedied the stock browser, and I hadn't noticed it missing in Running Apps, but it's not often that I look there or force close anything.
Both my ICS phone and my TFP as well as my friend complaining about it on his ICS phone are all unstable. Granted it has yet to really annoy me but I think its Android not the TPF. This is my opinion YMMV and it could be the ASUS fault in some way.

Not true.
I have a Galaxy Nexus with ICS and I never had this problem on that browser.
It's somewhat related to the TPF.
sad, because besides this problem I love this tablet.

Like i said your mileage may vary. Three cases on my end is making me think its Android its self. You haven't seen the issue on your end so it points to the Prime. Different cases and different perspectives. Then again the Galaxy Nexus is also ICS Native so maybe that could be part of the problem I don't pretend to have that answer.

Don't blame Google. Blame Asus. I've had a GSM Galaxy Nexus since launch, and the browser works flawlessly - no hangs, no unresponsiveness. This is all Asus.
Speaking of stock browser problems, anyone else notice anything like this? Some kind of malicious exploit in a browser's cache or something-other, apparently even an unrooted user got the issue so I just find it really interesting since that rules out changes to the hosts file.

Annoying but works
Someone mentioned in the other post that taking off javascript and putting plugins on demand helps. No lies it does its like night and day. Nothing like just plugins on demand by itself. Im not sure if its Asus or Android but the problem is somewhere in there.

It was me, and indeed ics browser+ without javascript is extremely fast. It's now even faster then chrome on my desktop pc.
It's gone from 5sec loading time for this forum to sub 1sec.
Only problem is that some sites need the javascript. But for that you can use a different browser.

Exactly!! If anyone remembers awhile back I was bragging on how the galaxy nexus running ICS put the iPhone 4s browser to shame & that was with flash running!!
I said once Asus got ICS it would blow Apple away. Well Asus screwed that up big time!
Guys, could someone who knows what he's doing change vm heap size to 128 or even lower and try then? I've done a bit of research and 256 seems way to high.
One thing for sure, its not browsers, chrome or flash fault.

Try using it while streaming radio in background. You'll be unpleasantly surprised.

How exactly do you know if a site uses javascript? Does the site just not load or is it minor? What kind of stuff uses it?
Going to give this a shot on my prime. The hangups are pretty annoying but I have really gotten used to and like the ICS+ browser so don't want to change!

[Q] How do I fix SSL Errors from Google on a custom ROM?

I recently started using Dirty Unicorns 4.4.4 for my Evo and it's really great, but I'm having a problem. Any time I try to go to a HTTPS site from Google, I'll get an error saying "Connection Problem - net::ERR_SSL_PROTOCOL_ERROR" or "Connection Problem - net::ERR_EMPTY_RESPONSE" and I don't know what to do to fix it. I originally thought it was just the stock browser and the Gapps package that I installed with the ROM, but then I tried it on Chrome and Lightning Browser too and it's the exact same thing. For example, if I go to news.google.com it works completely fine, but if I'm on the Google home page and I tap News, which takes me to the HTTPS site, it always has an error message. I think it's only when accessing Google sites, I've gone to other HTTPS sites and it's been fine. It's not something wrong with DU necessarily, I've seen this issue brought up a lot in forums dealing with CyanogenMod, and sometimes about Chrome, but I've never seen a definitive fix or even a reason why this is happening to users with custom ROMS. Any help would be great, I'm not the only one having this problem and it would be nice to get an answer. It's preventing me from using some apps. Thanks ahead of time for any help if anyone has a solution or some advice.
Also I just noticed that it's also keeping me from seeing images in GMail. I wouldn't think that I'm the only one having this problem haha, if anyone knows any fixes I'd really appreciate it
