mini plug to transformer, normal plug to tv ..

Yes confirm fixed..I also found a way to fix the keyboard lag on forums..but this fix will take away your flash functionality...u can toggle it though...here it goes:

Type about:debug in the address window then press enter. You will not get any feedback. Then click the action bar icon on the top right of your browser then go to settings. You will notice a new section called debug. Go there and uncheck open gl rendering...problem solved but this will disable flash. Hope Google will come up with a fix for this soon :-)

i fixed mine by going to browser setting -> Enable Plugins -> On Demand

since jailbreak is already being allowed once more, i don see why rooting cant... plus, root or no root also can installed apk file directly, so it's not related to any pirated issue, i don see a reason for mods to ban it

dungeon defender... still trying to figure out how to fight with my hero. seems like can only build traps and wait and wait... got bored and also dizzy (i can't stand games that move around too move like Dungeon Defender. ya, i'm the Ultima 5 and FF7 kinda person. smile.gif

but dun notice it being cropped... i'll go back later tonight and test again...

same... i didnt notice any crops.. maybe we were just too focused on the game itself that we didnt notice it... but i could appreciate higher texture resolution tho, the texture looks kinda blurry to me.. they can drop the shader effect, but i want higher texture detail

Right now it's hardly to find SP anywhere... Don't know if TF size same as ipad size... Yesterday i just throw away 1 matte SP i get from Hong Kong... Hardly can fit the TF due to the bezel around the glass...

Will try again tomorrow once i get another SP from Post Office icon_rolleyes.gif
*
don think it's the same, even the screen ratio is different... maybe try 10.1" laptop SP see how it goes

Still looking for a decent screen protector and I can't find a HDMI to VGA convertor yet. I don't if it's worth waiting for the official version. Any ideas? Thinking of picking up my dock in the afternoon (leaving the office a bit early today).

as i have posted to another member last time, for the converter refer here:
http://forum.lowyat.net/topic/1694389

From http://www.phonearena.com/reviews/Samsung-...w_id2761/page/3
specs-wise, i think Tab 10.1 is the same/ similar to TF101.

then... how come we cannot play 1080 movies smoothly?!? sad.gif
*
i read similar article in xda before... it says that 1080p can use normal profile encoding and put into mp4, and one more setting on the buffer frame must be 1, then it can play smoothly...
other then that, it's because Samsung spent a lot of money buying video codec license like DivX, Dobly Digital etc etc... that's why they can have native AC3 audio and avi playback

thanks, looks like i'll be sniffing around in lowyat tmrw. hoping this will be a much practical tab than the ipad. but from the looks it, it already isĀ  biggrin.gif

oh, another question, has anyone of you have ever tried pairing it with the iphone 4 for 3G connection? thinking about using the personal hotspot function on the iphone so i can have internet on the go

cheers
*
what firmware is your iPhone 4 on? if you are using 4.3 onwards, the native hotspot tethering will work, however if u are using anything <4.3, then MyWi tethering cannot work, as MyWi and PDANet tethers as Ad-Hoc network, where TF cant detect(filtered) right now... however u can use bluetooth tethering, works fine for me

QUOTE(garyngkt @ Jun 16 2011, 08:47 AM)
No problems with pairing with iPhone4 personal hotspot connection since its wifi conceptĀ  smile.gif


Added on June 16, 2011, 8:50 amI'm trying out Maxthon browser for 10" tablets, not too bad actually

that actually depends on the type, TF cannot detect Ad-Hoc network as mentioned several times...


Added on June 16, 2011, 4:21 pmbtw, anyone manage to buy apps from appstore market? i tried to buy Hot Springs Story, but it says that the item i attempt to purchase cannot be found sweat.gif

errr... nice ar?!? looks like some weird game... lol....

This one is Sim Game, i think something like Sim City(dunno cos never played Sim City), and if u like this kind of games, definitely try out Game Dev Story and their latest game Grand Prix Story, but don blame me if u are addicted XD

actually this one is just ok ok.. just thought of supporting the devs since the game is quite ok and the price is also not to say expensive. Kairosoft is really awesome in these games

the thing is, there are 2 scenarios that i tested... one, with an original HDD that is working before i root, but that time the dock is on low battery... so i guess maybe is just not enough power... the other one was another HDD of mine that has multiple partition.. anyone tested HDD with multiple partition also?

If not mistaken i have read somewhere saying that the HDD cannot be partitioned if wanna connect to the tab
*
hmm... no big deal, i'll just wipe the other partition away then, cos that was a spare partition i made for laptop if i need vista or something i can just swap the HDD in... but ended up no time to do and it's empty, lol...

then the other one might be just the dock low power so not enough power to get the HDD running then? anyone tried HDD when the dock led is blinking?

I'm guessing it is a old IDE based portable hdd. Probably not enough power.

no, not really, one of it is a Seagate external, another one is a Sata laptop HDD... i'm sure both can run just fine, tested already

Sorry,Maybe this question is silly, but i wanted to know can i use Android 2.2 application on honeycomb?
thanks
*
don mind if i ask what is that application? depends actually, if it is not coded for android version specific stuff, it would most likely work.. like Game Dev Story(and its _____ Story series) works on TF with some performance issue if u set the view to be a nicer one...

if it can run fine, some will just upscale, and some will just give u the small boxed view on its original resolution...
