QUOTE(0300078 @ Apr 29 2011, 02:44 PM) fanboy thing is... u can persuade them with facts.... they are living in their fiction world.... they cant see the reality or dare not believe in the reality becoz that will break their small and weak hearts. Bro, plz be noted that not all charger/car charger that is rated 2 amp will charge our tab. I've bought a Kensington 2 amp car charger thinking it would charge my tab but it doesn't, and it cost me rm100, so, money wasted. Then I ordered one third party compatible car charger from ebay that is for galaxy tab and it charges well! Ok any of u know where to get those car charger for the tab? I want to test the GPS... Later on only I found out that is bcoz the usb circuit and the resistor rating are different for tab, that explains why not all charger will charge our tab even the ampere is high enough. |

QUOTE(benny888 @ Apr 29 2011, 02:13 PM) I have used the Galaxy S before but only a month. On both its default stock rom and several cooked Froyo with added Voodoo lag fixes - I find is still perform poorly. I got a lot of brickbats ( all PM ) from SGS fans when I openly said in the SGS threads it was the worst Android smartphone I have ever used. I score it a 5 against the Nexus One ( 10), HD2 on Android ( 8-9 ), Dell Streak ( 8) . I find those criticizing me forgot that I also bought the phone with my own money - why should I have bad comments about it if I am happy with it. Infact one of the fanboy even PM me again last month to tell me to try latest 2.2.1 and change my opinion about it. I do agree with the latest 2.2.1 it probably improve a lot but sadly I don't have a phone to test it Totally agree with you. Had both and despite having more or less the same specs, the Tab is way smoother than my SGS YES - the Galaxy Tab even in its stock rom is way much better than the SGS ; is a fact and a undeniable fact as far as I am concerned. Some guys might disagree - well is OK ; this is what make the world exciting. If everybody agree with everyone it will be a darn boring world  |

You have to use WiFi for all data functions - so no SMS/MMSshould get 3g tab... now just can wait for 8inch tab... ------------------------- for 8 inch tab... does it allow sms/mms/data? no need call function.... thanks, Added on April 29, 2011, 10:21 pm QUOTE(skysaw @ Apr 29 2011, 10:13 PM) i saw a tri-dictionary (english, malay,chinese) at samsung apps when i surf to their website, but when i get into my galaxy tab's samsung apps, i cant search the Tri-Dict.... Not all apps in Samsung apps is in your Tab. What apps are available depend on the country. You can overcome this limitation by tricking the Tab to be from another country. See front page Technical Issues - I have listed the steps to do it ; it's quite tedious. A simpler way flash Overcome rom and you can access the 3 dictionaries you needi added the Tri-Dict to my KIES, but cant install to my tab...any idea?? thanks This post has been edited by benny888: Apr 29 2011, 10:22 PM |

You can only answer this yourself as different user different needs. I am running mine at 1.2 GHz as I multitask a lot and I prefer the additional power boost. It is even OK to underclock it to run at 600 MHz depending on what you need to use it forBattery life - is your own management - you can refer to front page - I have listed some links on how to maximize battery life ; guarantee to work. I don't believe in using apps eg juice defender, green power etc as these basically does what the manual methods do and call me phobia - I just don't like to put in apps that interferes with system files You can consider using voltage control app too - I make a 200 reduction across board ; this helps to reduce battery temperature and improve battery life. It will not affect performance as far as I can see |
