for the spareparts, before uninstall the app, do we need to change back to the old setting?
*
It is not necessary as it will not affect any of the other apps. The compatibility mode is for the older apps which in its original form is not meant for big screens

do u mean 3g to 2g or totally off the mobile data? is under setting > wireless, or i install quick setting, then put in the home screen.. just click on button to on and off.. convenient.. smile.gif

take iOS for example, we can enable or disable the 3g which mean if we don't need 3g connectivity (eat up the battery consumption) then we disable the 3g will only EDGE connection. So how to do it in Android?

Select GSM mode and it will never goes to 3G only Edge/GPRS.
As for me I will always wants it to be at maximum coverage ; battery life is not so crucial for me

What did you do ? This shows the SGT is BRICKED. Meaning the SGT is unable to connect to even the computer. So far I have yet to read of anyone having such an issue. This scenario was very common with the Galaxy S phones not so much for the TAB. It happens in the Galaxy S because some of the SGS phones were manufactured with the 3 buttons disabled, meaning by default pressing the 3 buttons will not get the phone into recovery or download mode

klwong99: Did you try to flash a new kernel from Paul ?

If so, reflash it as I just read one user same as your situation flashing Paul Kernel R2
This is what Paul say :
Just MCK r2 again via Odin and it will come back to life...

http://android.modaco.com/content-page/330...xy-tab/page/20/

the user finally got it done. If you are in same situation, PM the user and ask him exactly how he got his up again

I also can't believe i bricked my tab. cry.gif
i really followed the instruction closely to flash my tab.
1st, i flash the rotohammer's Roto JME Pre-Rooted Firmware v4 ROM, everything look fine and tab boot successfully.
2nd, i want install ClockWorkMod, so i flash use CF-Root as recommendated by rotohammer :
"If you want to install ClockWorkMod, use CF-Root as its tested to work with Roto-JME and it does not change your filesystem format!"
Again i really follow the instruction carefully as shown on the Chainfire thread. Odin just stop and show FAILED in the red color, i restart the tab manually , the bricked pic shown up.
What should i do now?

Always remember when you flash through Odin, if you see FAILED DO NOT ever disconnect the TAB from the computer. You will lose the connection between the TAB and computer

So I suggest you try this trick which sometimes work for the Galaxy S

Switch off the TAB. Hold down both volume buttons and then at the same time plug in the usb into your TAB from the computer. When you see activity let go of the buttons . It should put you into download mode . If you reach this stage , launch Odin and reflash roto JME

When you flash recovery, did you check the CFRoot file should be in tar format and not over extracted ?
