hi guys i need to ask is the original set coming with 2 years warranty or 1 year. because most of the new original sets publicized at mudah.my come with 1 year warranty from Samsung

is the original set coming with 2 years or 1 year warranty? most of the publicized one's are coming with 1 year.

congrats very good price.

what type is the casing, and how long is the warranty if i may ask?...........i have asked several times regarding the warranty period of the original set with no replies so far.

yay finally got my tab yesterday , Benny plz add me to the list.

rashad/Indonesia/P1000DXKM1/FROYO.DXKM3

If anyone is thinking of buying GT in Indonesia this info could be useful to u:

I bought my unit in Indonesia and the price is way more expensive than Malaysia at the beginning it was sold for 6 million rp, but Samsung officially reduced the price last week to 4,800,000 rp thats for the simple package same as the package offered in Malaysia but they have a full package option that includes Bluetooth headset, car charger, silicon case, and Garskin for the behind of the tab all that for 5,400,000 rp
but u can get it for 5,150,000 from other retailers.

***by the way u may be surprised to know that here they don't sell Ap sets although u might find it in the black market.

i got the simple pack for 4,700,000 rp and bought better accessories than the ones offered.

now i have alot of reading to do about rooting... and stuff.

By the way i tried rooting my unit following Benny instruction using z4root but the process is unable to complete and discontinues ......any solutions to that .......i am trying the 2nd option at the moment.

hi guys a noob inquiry, i am not sure if a solution was posted to solve this matter. plz if any one can help in this matter especially our beloved gurus in this forum:

i have already rooted my GT.
and installed rom manager...
after doing the Flash ClockworkMod Recovery i chose one of the 3 options offered to us:
galaxy tab-verizon
galaxy tab-att
galaxy tab-tmobile

whats the difference between them and r they compatible with our gsm voice Tab?

.....Any way this is not my problem my problem is in doing a backup of my stock rom........after downloading the recovery clockwork i went to the option of backup current room

it reboots and i get this error:

e:failed to verify whole-file signiture

i think this a common issue for froyo 2.2 ....there is a problem with the

3e recovery file

......any way i don't know how to solve it.i have tried reading all the tuturials that i could find on this matter but without success.

Ty Benny for the reply i am trying to follow you'r guide at moment but i have a question:

is it possible to convert back to original stock rom kernel as it was from factory..............i mean i dont want to void my warranty in case something happens to the tab.

Sry for the late reply didn't notice ur comment, anyway i am not a Malaysian nor Indonesian i studied at University Malay and now i am in Indonesia i really love both countries. The Lowyat forum is one of the best forums because it has a lot of Gurus providing amazing tutorials for different types of phones.

Thank you again benny for the feedback, i installed modaco kernel. but now i have another question for you and the forum gurus; is there a way to remove the splash (couple of red yellow lines shows up) that comes when booting up.

Hi guys, yay....i finally have joined the OC beta 2 party
and guess what... the party rocks

My applauds goes to "thepittbull" for his amazing tutorial and all of the "alterbridge86" team for bringing us this rom this soon. The flashing procedure was a breeze ..... it couldn't have been more simpler.

By the way:

1. I can't seem to send files from my tab to the PC through Bluetooth, there is a connection between the 2 and the PC downloads all the drivers for Samsung but i think the driver responsible for file transfer isn't provided.
(any solution to this. did any one face this problem).

2. how to connect to an adhok connection i want to connect to my pc internet through the wireless. i already created the adhok connection but the tab doesn't seem to see the connection ( how to fix this).

guys i am facing this isuue with my tab i can't transfer files using bluetooth to pc. i can transfer between tab and another phone. but with pc i can't.

the tab pairs with my pc and the drivers are downloaded and there seems to be no missing drivers neededand. when i want to send a file i get an error message that i better restart my pc or tab.

any solution to this? plz answer back.

ahm...i am already using this app in fact this app works fine when i want to send to another phone but when it comes to sending files to pc or recieving it gives me this error when it tries to connect to pc ( (title) service not found........(context) you can't connect with target device because it lacks of the "object push profile" (obex opp) bluetooth service) i tried to check the driver and it's already installed.

i also have a problem with installing kies version 2.0, but mine is once its downloaded it gives me an error message that it cant finish the installation. tried it couple of times even after i uninstalled my older kies.

by the way my suggestion is that you stick with you'r original kies u got with you'r phone. there isn't much of a difference and its working fine in terms of connection.

Added on May 20, 2011, 7:12 amjust an observation regarding charging the battery. once you charge the battery to 100% you better take it off other wise it's not effective to let it go on; the reason is i think once it reaches the 100% mark the battery stops charging and relies on the internal juice. different than other batteries i tried with my other phones.

i just left my tab charging over night 6 hours and already reached 100%. but then i unplug and plug it back and the battery is like 80% and start charging back and thats all when the phone is off.

by the way i already have calibrated my battery.

Hi guys ,the Google maps 5.5.0 patch for Overcome RC1 has been added to the Downloads page at the overcome experience webpage.

Thx overcome team.

Hi guys, after several days of searching the net to make my adhok network work i have stumbled on a couple of good websites to solve the issue:

Ps: this solution is for anyone having the latest rooted gingerbread 2.3.3 rom and wants to connect to his laptop internet connection:

(A). u need to get the wpa_supplicant that is working on gingerbread, i got one working and its from the beloved xda forums( http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1058319)

1. Make sure ur tab wifi is turned off.
2. Make a copy of the original wpa_supplicant in case things go
wrong. use root explorer and go to system/bin u will find the file
there.
3. Now unzip the file got from xda, and replace it with the original
wpa_supplicant.
4. turn on ur wifi and u should see any adhok network.

(B). Now this is the most important part inorder to get an internet connection working on ur tab u better download a small app for that instead of creating a manual adhok connection on ur pc. i learned this from this website thx to him ( http://pal-talks.blogspot.com/2011/04/miss...-laptop-to.html ).

The app is called connectify u can get it from this link ( http://www.connectify.me/thanks.html?v=2.2.0.18699#basic ).

1. download app. go through the instructions there u can use
ur PC Lan network or wifi connection, i am using Lan
so i chose that.
2.Now u should be able to see the connection on ur Tab
and able to connect to internet.

I hope benny u can use this and add it to ur first posts in case anyone needs it. u can't believe how tough to get a complete tutorial to make this work.

can you be more specific about what you want to know more about?

regarding the root explorer.apk u can find it if u searched the internet , because its not available in the market the last time i checked at least as a free app.

Added on June 1, 2011, 2:45 amyep ur right, GB no overcome kernel yet. plus its for anyone without a GB modded wpa_supplicant, if you have one already no need to replace.

some other users have reported that using a froyo moded wpa_supplicant with GB isn't working that's why its better to use the link to the supplicant i provided

i already tested it and it's working so far for me.

By the way, if u tried the method i explained earlier regarding connecting to an adhok connection, and still you'r not able to connect to internet even when using the connectify app.

then make sure that you'r Lan network or wifi network that you'r PC is using has the "allow other network users to connect through this computer's
internet connection" box checked and that the wireless connection that connectify app created is the one allowed to share.

if u r using other app than root explorer to replace files then that what u get, u need root explorer to have root rights to be able to replace files. if u r using root explorer and still not able to replace, then u need to click (mount r/w) button to be able to replace.

though i am happy that the 8.9 has gsm voice capabilities and probably would have been my choice of purchase for the first time. i still prefer the 7 inch over it and the 10 inch. simply because its more portable and u can fully grab it with one hand, the other thing is i use the 7 inch as a phone. personally i feel 7 inch is the max size if you want a phone and pad at the same time. otherwise if size isn't an issue for you then its better to go with the biggest which is 10 inch and use a simple phone for calls.
