Spare parts don't work that well anyway. Not all games will become full screen, in fact some will look weird

So far, most I used from SGT is the games, followed by internet. Ebooks not really .. despite having lots of books, comics and magazines.

Out of all the games installed and tried .... only addictive ones I like for quick gaming is :-

1) Ninjump
2) beetlejump
3) Angry birds/seasons

When using dolphin on lowyat forum pages, got kick out problem?




QUOTE(mozact89 @ Dec 16 2010, 09:45 PM)
bro, the default browser is lag bcoz its fully support flash.. so, if u use opera, it is very smooth but it did not support flash..

~now, im using dolphin HD browser. its support flash n more smooth than default browser..
- for me, this tablet is very nice n useful.. sometimes, i just make my assignment on this tablet.

I already updated using kies, to JJ2

It could be lowyat problem ... who knows. One way to test is to go to topics with lots of pictures eg. http://forum.lowyat.net/topic/724397/+1120

First sign of trouble is the sudden dim of screen brightness ... as it continues, it will then vibrate and then kick out to home screen. I'm only using mobile version lowyat (not desktop version)

Will try other websites to compare.

Go with the telco that you are using for voice plan. Just add data plan. Save some plan $$$ at least.

I don't need those kits 'cos with my micro SD and adapter, I can just plug into camera or pc for taking pics or transfer files etc ... then just plug the micro sd into SGT for viewing or copy etc..

No need to spend anymore than I already have with the SGT price.

Am sure you can get any bluetooth keyboard.


QUOTE(rahuldave @ Dec 17 2010, 08:33 PM)
Let me make it clear, I want to Plug pendrive or USB Media such as Hardrive directly to Galaxy Tab via the USB Camera Connection Kit. If you google around you can see that Samsung has introduced their own Camera Connection Kit which is similar to the ipad. And this is the reason I'm asking is it true and where can we get it in Malaysia. This includes the keyboard and TV Out cable as well

Ok. After surfing lowyat forum and posting some replies for about 30mins, no more drop outs (touch wood).

Looks like problem fixed!

And less lagging on pic intensive pages.

Spare parts doesn't work on all games. Some games look weird and distorted with it, even the HD ones.

I uninstalled it. Those games not meant for full screen should be left untouched

You updating using latest KIES i presume. And SGT is connected via usb, in KIES mode.

You have to be more specific in your problem. Normally when click 'update', KIES will search if there's a new firmware first, if yes, then only click update.

So what error or which step you have problem?

Pressing power button is so much easier and quicker, compared to another app




QUOTE(g400g400 @ Jan 8 2011, 07:54 AM)
pressing the small power button to put the tab into sleep is a bit arkward, is there a software button toggle in home scrren that can put the tab into immedite sleep mode? (same like pushing the power button). If you guys know of such applications please share...thks

For galaxy tab owner and user,Sony play station apps for android is working like perfect machine on galaxy tab.Just download and feel endless game in this world.


Added on January 13, 2011, 11:06 pmI never regrets buy this  SGT using my hard earn money. After two month using it and compare with ipad,I
dare to say this tab is DOA.For those who use this tab will know that they never revert to netbook for browsing internet.Further more I personally think.this android platform is amongst light weight in OS system.So people get advantage over speed and RAM management.
