I am current using Overcome 1.6.4.

Can I do a research over here?

As from my Settings/Battery use detail/ ,  I can achieve 5 Hours of LCD On time before I need to recharge the battery at 5%.

Please do let me know about yours.

Cheers...

My Tab is normally on Flight Mode unless I need to go online (i.e. I don't use it as a phone). Played a game for 1 hour 20 minutes or so, still have about 74% of juice left. I suspect my Tab can take about 5-6 hours of LCD active time without data (3G/WIFI) active.

Chinese keyboard, perhaps? Google Pinyin IME, for example.

guy anyone using this case ????
samsung original case ( it look nice and slim

Doesn't fully cover the sides, but sexy design and look, I agree. My friend just bought a used Tab 3G that was protected by a book-type leather case for 5 months, sides were not fully covered and there were some line scratches here and there. Also, the white back had blackish stains, probably from the case.

I am using a condom-like case, a semi-hard rubber/plastic thingy covering the back and the sides of my Tab. Only the screen is left unprotected.

If you are already running Gingerbread AND have the CF-Root kernel installed you can put the installer on your SD card and flash away

Meaning using clockwork right?

Yes.

I have silicon case too ....... but don't like it cause no front screen cover smile.gif (i break almost every PDA screen i use other then u1000) smile.gif

Yeah, I am abit afraid about the screen too, but currently since I carry a manbag during weekends and the Tab sits inside my laptop bag (separate compartment) during weekdays, I find the silicon case to be the best compromise between weight and protection.

I just bought jabra easygo bletooth headset for my tab and i have no problem using it to call from my maxis line.

But i cant use it when i try to make a call via mobile voip app?

Does anyone know how to route the voice to my headset when making a voip call?
*
I could be wrong here, but don't voip apps require Bluetooth audio support aka a2dp? the headset profile is just for normal voice calls, no?

No reason why cannot play flash videos . It plays perfectly well on mine. I am on Overcome 2.0 beta2. Try upgrade your flash player - it is now at ver 10.3
*
Yeah, known issue on Overcome 2.0.0 beta2. Just uninstall Flash and install again from the market. Flash 10.3 plays nicely on my phone now, in stock browser, Dolphin Mini and also Opera Mobile. smile.gif

The dual core Acer honeycomb tablet (A500) is making rounds in Penang too. Have seen it in about 5-6 shops in Prangin Mall, attractive pricing, pity about the lack of 3G plus the large size (10-ish ala iPad1 & iPad2 inches is too big for me) and weight (heavier than iPad1 3G).

Todate, is it possible to run a .exe windows 7 prog in Galaxy? It is a custom made software that runs in windows 7, using IE8 interface.

Don't think so, as far as I know. If you need to run Windows exe files, you probably should consider the Acer Iconia Win7 tablet which is coming soon or has just arrived in our market.

First impressions of Overcome 2.0 RC1 is very good. First thing I test was flash video performance on browser - noticeably smoother and faster than before
Those already on OC 2.0 beta - just need to download the update zip and flash it from recovery - whole process took just 3 minutes to complete
The initial splash screen is very nice - I like the Android chomping up apple ( inside the O alphabet 0f Overcome )
So guys, once is up and available, do update your 2.0 rom - all your data remains intact. I think it will be release officially anytime today or tomorrow based on pitbull's comments
*
Yeah agreed. Overcome 2.0 RC1 is quite a subtle but noticeable improvement over beta2. Official release should be anytime today.

Had to uninstall Flash 10.3 and reinstall it to get my browsers working again, but this was not a big issue.

Pity no ext4 conversion yet, celaka Samsung still has not released the GB sources for the Tab. mad.gif mad.gif

Right now, with permission from the team, I've opened up a special preview for only two people here on LYN... as I respect their opinion and feedback. So just be a little bit patient, yeah? Trust me, it's worth it.
*
Surprises (the good ones) are always nice. smile.gif And previews are even nicer!

Thanks for the special preview, bro. Much appreciated. Overcome 2.0.0 rc1 has actually made shelve my plans to go back to Overcome 1.6.4 thumbup.gif My friend playing PES2011 on the Tab has just commented that he noticed slightly smoother gameplay than yesterday ha ha..


Added on May 20, 2011, 1:52 pmA bit more feedback on RC1, if you will all bear with me. Based on changelog:

Flash Player 10.3 - a bit easier to double tap to full screen playback, probably slightly smoother playback but I'm not 100% certain.

Fugutweaks 0.2 Included (app_process from Honeycomb) - not sure what this does, need to research a bit more into this

Cifs/ext4 support - no filesystem conversion yet, so no ext4 goodness, and I don't use cifs

Browser Mods – I use Opera Mobile and Dolphin mini so enhancements to the stock web browser is not so apparent to me

Google Talk from AOSP 2.3.4 integrated (voice works – video not so much…yet) - I don't gtalk on the Tab, so this does not affect me

Notification bar themed - Pretty smile.gif

GPU Drivers from Nexus S 2.3.4 integrated - my QA guy (the fella who plays PES2011 on my Tab says the game's a bit quicker or smoother now)

New Bootanimation - Sexy! I like..

FuguTweaks are cool!

http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=981125

QUOTE
This tweak adds responsiveness on the phone. What it does is replace app_process and system_server binaries by the ones found in android 2.3.3_r1 or 3.0 (v0.2)

Note that those binaries have been compiled by me from google official source.

This has been qualified by supercurio as a taste of the Nexus S 2.3.3 smoothness.

It will not make your battery last longer or the opposite. Neither will it improve quadrant benchmarks.

Why would one still need to use Market Access ? As of last week, Malaysia is already in the list of countries with access to paid apps market
If you cannot see the paid apps, just go clear data/cache at settings/applications/manage applications - tab on Market
Reset. Launch Market - you will be prompted to agree with the agreements etc
*
For some reason, I sometimes can't find stuff like Flash without marketaccess even after having cleared market cache.

Definately can find Flash. After I upgraded to 1.6.4 - I reinstall Flash 10.3 from Market. Did the same thing on 2.0 beta 2 and the recent 2.0 RC1
At Market - Menu/Settings/ Select SHOW ALL APPS  to see everything - it is by default restricted - you have many other  choices too - look it up at the drop down menu . I always select ALL as I am a full grown old adult male and I can tahan all/ whatever apps there are available

heya guys,
just bought my Tab P1000 SME set last evening. please count me in to the list ya. Playing with my Tab until late 4:00am last nite.. haha.. so sleepy this morning. :-)
Just curious, can i root my Tab using Ubuntu 11.04 OS? I'm not using Windows OS for the past 2 years. :-)
*
Assuming you're running a compatible ROM version, maybe cf-root kernel can be installed via Heimdall utility in Linux? I run Linux at home too (2 computers with Mint 10 x64) but I always flash/update my phone and tab with my work laptop (Win7).

Good luck, read up more here.. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=885734
