Buy the tab if you wish for great portability . Suggest get the 3g/wifi as is a much better performer vs WiFi only model
The eeepad is a different class due to its size
I am very sure you will love the Tab

hi benny,
i am with tab now for few months.. smile.gif
just thinking about my tab now as the eeepad has battery dock and keyboard..

i know tab have keyboard as well.. but the portability is not so good compare to eeepad..

your shot shows in download mode
you mean after update your tab boot into this
your earlier question i also don't understand about your rom details
your question too brief. at least give some background what you have done
so back to download mode what did you do after that and what is your tab status now

plug in my tab, kies mode on, say got updates for my tab, update lor.. smile.gif

I just tried upgrading the firmware to PDA:JPD / PHONE:JPD / CSC:JPD (XME) and the famous error came out.

"Insufficient disk's free space (requires at least 3000 MB)". I got more than that in both my notebook and Tab.

Sigh.. Samsung.. when are you ever going to fix KIES?


Added on June 21, 2011, 4:15 pm
I don't think so. The current Galaxy S is on JP versions. For them, Gingerbread is PDA:JV6 / PHONE:JV4 / CSC:JV6. So I doubt JPD would be Gingerbread for us. Just guess coz I can't upgrade with the stupid error message.

Added: I think the JPD is what kokifung installed, which is 2.2.1 and not Gingerbread. It's just a blended Froyo.. sigh.. still have that stupid error message.

ya wor, installed latest kies also failed to get updates.. doh.gif shakehead.gif

QUOTE(sleepwalker @ Jun 22 2011, 09:35 AM)
I finally got it installed. Confirmed that it is Gingerbread 2.3.3. However, it works great on my phone. Fix the lagging issue and apps launch faster.

hmm.. seem nice.. my device is zhkc2, so not able to update??

really force me to go to the dark side.. sweat.gif sweat.gif laugh.gif

like many others Forumer said KIES IS TERRIBLY SUCK SOFTWARE that many people said how terrible it is.... samsung want to copy like apple itunes but it not success like itunes....

compare to HTC its upgrade through OTA mean u no need use any software or program to update ur phone juz update through ur phone......

however...
if u keep going to try this upgrade from kies take note that any rom upgrade from samsung minimum data rom u need to download around 200MB++....... it will take quite long time to dld that file.....

chill bro.... biggrin.gif

QUOTE(whitedragon2010 @ Jun 23 2011, 08:02 AM)
Download latest kies. If you got any launcher installed like adw or go please go back to samsung original home launcher. Plug in and it will connect and update to gingerbread.
*
hmm.. just wandering is the gingerbeard officially updates to all tab in the world??
if not, why some able and some unable to update??

latest kies, good internet connection also cannot update.. doh.gif


if the tab in power off, then u press on button + down, ur tab will appear downloading screen ( mine have ) why ar?? but then nothing happen in the end.. doh.gif doh.gif

Hi kokifung,

Samsung Service Centre is along the Federal Highway just before the slip road turning into Jln 222, PJ. Same row with Hong Leong Bank.

I don't think the have a service centre in Subang Jaya.

Only original sets are free within the warranty period.

icic.. so far ar.. zzz
see when have time only able to send in..
everyday also need to work. the center usually opens what time to what time?? smile.gif

connected to Kies today and this popped up..

i clicked and prayed HARD. luckily, everything seemed to go smoothly. after about 5 minutes, the installation was complete and now i have gingerbread. yay!

first impression, it does seem much smoother than froyo. i like.

p/s: you need to have at least 3GB in your pc for the installation.

lucky for you.. thumbup.gif

still no luck on my tab... sweat.gif

i think the previous post sugegst by forumer worth a try. looks for a high speed internet  + download new version of KIES should able to let you upgrade....if you can, try test at company pc (of cos with permission from your IT) or bring your notebook to starbuck / McD download...

my case was i try using new kies version , run at home not able to detect anything, so i test at company (anyway, is streamyx also...just diff is, company streamyx is  a fix IP and faster a bit). then i able to get the download.... but compare to those 15 min finish all the download...my was consider slow already... it takes me more then 3 hours to upgrade completely...

at home i using unifi 3-4mbs.. not fast enough?? hmm.gif

QUOTE(dave18 @ Jun 27 2011, 11:40 PM)
Since no one wants to help you. Your CSC is TGY which means that it's from Hong Kong so cannot update thru Kies. Only m'sian rom DX with CSC code Xme for m'sia can update thru kies.

icic. but i tot is official release so means anywhere in the world also can update right? regardless where are you... sweat.gif
