[Q] Galaxytab 2 10.1 FAST has a Phone? - Galaxy Tab 10.1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi guys
I had the opportunity of hands on for 2 mins on a new GalaxyTab 2 in a local shop.
Two things moved me
1. It was a hell faster even than my 1.4 OC old galaxytab
2. I saw a Phone app installed but couldnt try it
Do you have the same impression?

I thought the 10.1 was a later model which was thinner with a larger capacity battery and has HC 3.1 whereas the v which was originally released under Vodafone is fatter has an 8mp camera instead of 3mp but so far only runs HC 3.0

You want the 10.1 section. I'm pretty sure nuclearmonkeyuk is right.

Thanks for the links. I didn't know the specific differences. Doing a little searching also showed me some other info I saw people asking about. Thanks again.

Galaxy Note 10.1

Yikes! Just got my brand New Galaxy Tab last Tuesday and now I've been informed that there is a Note 10.1 around the corner.
The "only" difference I've seen so far is that it will pack a 1.4 processor, stock ICS, and external sd card slot.
Since I got this one in Costco is returnable. However, I think the Note will start @ $500 (maybe more...)
I dunno... You guys think is worth the wait?
It's just that I have a SGS2 and is sooo much faster than this Tab. Will flashing a custom ROM to this tab make a difference in speed?
Thank you for taking my question.

I can only say I'm running my 10.1 @ 1.4 and haven't had any issues not caused by myself.

You missed the whole point huh, the pressure sensitive stylus?
Value is a subjective thing though, only you know what you need out of the device. Going with the note will surely mean a longer wait for development of custom ROMs. If the added features make up for that as well as the delay between launch and shipment then go for it.
Me personally i find the idea of the stylus intriguing but then the ram limitation (the 1gb of ram, not sure if this is an Android system restriction at this time but I'm guessing so) is cause for pause for me. We all look at lag critically and i always wonder how additional system ram would improve that. If increasing it on a standard PC improves performance to a degree then surely on a tablet it would as well. Of course that would add additional cost but I'm sure many would spring for premium models with more memory. I bring up this issue because of Samsung partnering with adobe on the inclusion of Photoshop touch with the note. Moving towards marketing tablets for graphic production using the stylus needs to come along with the ability to do it well without the lag and unresponsiveness shown in the demos. Surely there are driver optimizations that can help yes but anyone who uses Photoshop regularly to do production knows that ram is hugely important.
Baby steps though, the note is certainly a welcome addition to the tablet arena. If an LTE one comes out in the next year is certainly consider it.

What did you oc'd with? I have setcpu and it will only go up to 1.0.
Sent from my GT-P7510 using xda premium
Need to flash Pershoots latest kernel. His droid basement blog would probably be the easiest to find since I don't have a link to his thread here handy.
I'm using setcpu also and had the 1000 limit. Flashing his kernel gave me the1400 option with no other changes needed.

Return it and keep saving to get the galaxy note 10.1. I read a couple weeks back they were holding of release til june to switch out the dual core processor for a quad core processor. I think it would be worth returning any tablet to get the galaxy note 10.1 if this rumor is true.

If this rumor is true I will crap my pants
id wait if i was in your position.. really. return that **** and use your desktop or laptop till it comes out, i wish i would have.
It has been upgraded to quad core 1.2 ghz so return your tab and get the note 10.1

Google may also be releasing a Nexus tablet next month - in the lower price-point range as well. Hold off for now.

new here,had a t-mobile galaxy s2

hey guys, just wanted to say hi I had a samsung galaxy s2.....and broke my contract to get the note through at&t....I'm by no means a rookie here...I've rooted the device soon as I got it.....I thought this note would be smoother and less laggy........how many developers do we have here for the note?....well anyways......glad to be here...and hope to help to the community ....
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I717 using XDA
It is indeed laggy out of the box but should only be with the launcher. I rooted mine with dag's over clock kernel and now running adw ex with about 3-4 Widgets and some app shortcuts. Only using 2 pages of launcher space. This thing is flying...
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I717 using xda premium
The new update to go launcher smooths out a lot of the lag I used to notice.

cool.thanka for the input...yeh I use adw ex as well...juat have to load up the tar to get into recovery tonight and find the kernal...thanks guys....
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I717 using XDA
I as well, left Tmo and the Galaxy SII to come over to AT&T I honestly like this note far better than the SGSII and I get far better reception and data speeds then I did on Tmo's "supposedly" 42mbps HSPA+ network lol
no lag here, only have rooted and ran the supercharge script
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I717
Yep, mine was pretty bad out of the box too, now I'm running dag's overclock kernel at 1.83, TPC Note V2 rom, and ADW EX and its great.

Windows and iOS on GTab possible?

Hi guys,
I have a weird question i was thinking about how it will be awesome to see Windows 8 on GALAXY Tab 10.1 so is there a way to use Windows 7 or 8 on GALAXY Tab 10.1 P7500 or evem iOS.
Thanks.
Sent from my GT-P7500 using XDA Premium HD app
Definitely not ios apple would never allow that in a million years dont know about windows but I think the tegra 2 chip would pose problems
Sent from my HTC Wildfire S A510e using Tapatalk
The on the iOS i agree 100%,but i really think the Windows 8 Tablet version would be good on the GALAXY Tab cause so far there isn't an Quad Core Windows 8 tablets anouncments so i think it would run smoothly on the Tegra 2 Processor specially cause it runs VERY SMOOTHLY on android.
Sent from my GT-P7500 using XDA Premium HD app
the likely hood of a dev spending time to port over win8 is very unlikely everyone is all about ICS and making that play well with our tab.

Need help with my choice :D

I've decided top but a new smartphone but I can decide between Samsung galaxy s3 or the Google nexus 4 ... Please help new decide
Thanks
Sent from my GT-I9000 using Tapatalk 2
Owned a nexus 4. It is honestly the best choice. It has better specifications and better dev support. But isf you are a heavy user and you play games and diqnliad tons of music, go for tye s3 because ofbthe removable battery with extended battery capablities and the mirco sd slot
Sent from that one guy with the cool phone
I'd allways take a google phone first, but (IMO) the Nexus4 sucks, so I would choose the s3
Also, if you like the pure android interface, you can allways flash the CM 10.1
regards - Cartman
i would defently go for S3
nexus 4 is boring it is so bareboned with software
and also the on screen buttons take the space away
Samsung Galaxy S3 is amazing phone, you can always flash a custom ROM which will make your phone to work as fast as Nexus 4!
And yes, Touchwiz ROM is quite slow, for example to open contacts it's takes about 4-5 seconds, but if you will flash a custom ROM this problem will gone!
Anyone else?
Thanks for the replies guys

Not really. To have off screen buttons they'd have to have made the screen smaller. If the s3 went for on screen buttons, the screen could have been longer but it would have been as useless as not being an extended screen. Buttons on screen or off screen leave the same amount of screen left over only the latter is easier

yeah but nexus 4 left a lot of space down there so the screen feels smaller than s3's
True but we dont know what's under there
Sent from my GT-I9300 using Tapatalk 2
So what's your decision guys ? S3 or nexus 4?
Sent from my GT-I9000 using Tapatalk 2
I wouldn't chose the n4 over the s3. I like things many phones dont offer such as sdcard slot and removable battery. On paper the n4 is better but its less practical for me and dull looking. I wouldn't ever buy a 1 year old phone either....
So if I was in the market today id probably go insane and put up with what I had and see what next year brings

about S3 and N4, IMHO the main different is ram.. S3 1gb (800mb) Vs N4 2Gb (1,3gb CMIIW).
whether the difference in the amount of ram has a big influence on System android? especially for Jelly Bean OS 4.1.x - 4.2.x - 4.3.
