lowest from RM1199 in apple store malaysia

If you want cheap, go for iPad as mentioned above by bro Bassist...
if you want portability, go for Tab 1 due to its 7"
If you want to wait, go for Tab 2... lolz



Uncle Benny, where do you get the info state that RAM for iPad 2 is 256MB? I can't find any source mentioning that.

Added on March 3, 2011, 11:01 amokay... so the procedure will be:

1) flash back to RFS based (using MoDaCo RFS based kernel?)
2) Fire up the device and do a factory reset
3) Flash to your desired kernel (be it OC or MoDaCo)

is this correct?

i just wish iPad have flash supported so i dont have to think so much >.<

actually, I wonder if there is really a need for Flash support for mobile device?
For me personally, I don't really browse much website with tons of flash....
so I don't see a need for that...

but then, out of the 3, I will suggest you to get Tab 1 or wait for Streak 7....
cos it offers much more portability and pocketable!!!

as for iPad, seriously, I will actually sees it as an entertainment device that can be carrying around at home....
I won't carry it around in town when i go for shopping, having dinner...
cos whatever iPad can do, Tab can do it as well while offering portability where you don't have to carry it on your hand or bring a bag or something....

Of cos, unless you are talking about the games on iOS then there is nothing much to argue for...
my 2cents

i am not really into games and iOS things ...
flash quite useful well at least i can do a GSC ticketing epayment...
talking about the size i think i will prefer 10' is kinda small for me with 7'...how much would be streak 7 ? i dont really have high budget ... thats why wishing when tab2 is out tab1 will drop like iPad now

I prefer flash using Odin 1.7 to RFS rom eg JME - repartition, PIT, PDA . I have tried flash to RFS Modaco but still have issues on temperatures out of control

Added on March 3, 2011, 12:27 pmAs Sherlock Holmes used to say, " My dear Watson, it is elementary deduction". The official specs listing did not mention RAM size at all unlike the first ipad. If there is any increase in RAM don't you think Steve Jobs will capitalize on it to mention it. Worse of all, it is quietly kept out , not listed at all in the official specs. RAM is an important specs - why is it left out ???
Someone please prove me wrong

OMG - don't tell me it could even be lower than 256 MB ???? !!!!

is there any place where i can try out galaxy tab demo ?

lolz... yeah, I do agree your way of analyzing it...
It is really not Steve Jobs' not to mention the RAM increment if there is any... and he will even make it sounds like Apple's RAM increment is so revolutionary as if there are no other companies has done it before...

Added on March 3, 2011, 4:00 pmokay... I never use the GSC ticketing epayment before (cos my town doesn't have one!! )
so i didn't aware of that.
So far we don't have much details on Streak 7's pricing so can't help you with that...
as for Tab 1's pricing huh? Yes, definitely you can wait if you are not in hurry. haha...

seriously speaking, I must say that Facebook apps on iOS is better polised than Android....
But on the other hand, we can play FB Flash games on Android!! though I don't really play facebook much...
so, sorry can't help you much... just know that we can watch the video on facebook through the browser but not the Facebook apps if I'm not mistaken...

anyone using 3rd party Blackberry Car charger like this?
output 5V 1000mA


Attached thumbnail(s)

Lowyat at PC retailer store, lvl3 got.

okay thanks will try it out see if it would be too small ><

Uncle Benny

Mind sharing the result which you have achieved when SGT is overclocked to 1.4ghz? For eg battery life, stability and etc? And I would appreciate your recommendation in terms of stability, to overclock it to 1.2ghz or 1.4ghz. My main concern is to play some 1080 Videos on SGT

If it is genuine output 1000mA it will work. There are just too many fakes and imitation of car chargers in the market now.
The TAB needs minimum 1000mA . If you want to be safe, just get those that can change the ipad - sure can work or find those with output 2000mA . The latter even generic cheap - about RM 30 to RM 40 only. Better quality be prepared RM 100+

Added on March 4, 2011, 8:00 amI did not really test OC to 1.4 Ghz. I tested it few hours on Richardtrip kernel - the higher temperatures were a distraction, though it is said to be safe. There are several users in this forum on it. Just trace back the posts and ask them
Frankly I am not comfortable with such a high O/C and since I don't play games I don't really need such a high O/C

I am now on Overcome 1.2 and set it to 1.2 GHz - this is just an academic exercise only to assess the stability. So far very good, no major issues. Temperatures are reasonably just slight higher than stock 1.0 Ghz

Charging using AC : 37 to 38 degree
Standby not used : 30 degree
IN use - browsing, email, RSS , etc - 33 to 38 degree

Voltage controls : I left it as set by Overcome's rom - I noted he has reduced the values from default

I also use SetCPU to control my battery life - it is very good tool. I find is better than using those apps that supposedly helps on battery life
These are my settings:

On boot : Max 1200 MHz Min 600 Mhz - On Demand
My Profiles: All set to CONSERVATIVE

Battery < 33 % : 800, 400 : 95 %
Temp > 42 degree : 600, 400 : 100 %
Screen off : 600, 400 : 80 %
Charging AC : 800, 600 : 80 %

Overcome updated rom expected end of today ; his change log listed below
You will now have option to have stock kernel or one with OC options
I think his honeycomb animation is the same as the one I posted previously
However I don't quite like recovery to use internal SD - what happen if it is corrupted ?? Leceh only - have to reflash Modaco kernel to use ext sd card
Those who has used the Galaxy S before will notice, he is implementing Voodoo Lag Fix - sound good , this should boost the performance considerably
Anyway look forward to updating to it :

QUOTE :

Version 1.2.1
Overcome Kernel 1.1 included (Standard, Non-OC)
Honeycomb boot animation
Updated Maps to 5.2.0
Updated Market to 2.3.3
Updated GMail to 2.3.4.1

Kernel changes :
KERNEL CHANGE LOG
Version 1.1
Available in two version - Standard and 1.4ghz OC/UV
Clockworkmod Recovery 2.5.1.8
Recovery uses internal SD rather than external
Further tweaks to kernel source
More compiler optimizations
Voodoo Lagfix (much cleaner implementation of ext4 than what is currently used)
Rebuilt initramfs

A very good news...just one question here uncle benny, when i received my email (exchange server), there is no notification for new mail on mail icon...do u face that problem ?

Benny, adamking doesn't hv stock for car charger. On his thread he mentioned the tab draws 1.68A. so in order to get charged as good as home charger, it need at least that much. if lesser, no charge or slow charge. I think if less then 1A sure no charging. I'm going to get a 2A one then

i fixed my

Gingerbread ready for Galaxy S. how about Galaxy Tab? any news?

What mail app are you using ? Most mail app will have settings to allow settings on how you which to be notify - thro tones, notification on top bar, vibrate etc

I don't use the default mail or android mail ; I use only K9-MAIL which I consider the best with so much added features

I removed all mail notifications even on default GMail and Yahoo app mail - find it irritating as I get lots of mails from these 2 accounts - mainly subscription and LowYat forum threads update

Added on March 4, 2011, 1:32 pmNoted your first post . Are you TAB user. If so, welcome
What did you fix ?

Added on March 4, 2011, 1:35 pm1000mA will work - previously I uses one ( McKay brand ) but is expensive, cost me S$80 bucks. It charges the TAB, iPad , dell Streak ( which also needs minimum 1000mA ) very well . Not slow at all. But better get a 2000mA unit, you have more flexibility and can use for other high power devices too

My point is.. U need expensive or branded 1A charger for it to charge but probably a cheap generic 2A should work, right?
