lol i was wondering why did the v2 topic locked then I remembered it was time for V3 rclxm9.gif

by the way, does anyone use voltage control with the Tab? I just installed it to bump up to 1200mhz but it seems a bit laggier than the stock...heck stock 1000mhz is smooth...at 1200 it doesn't sad.gif

I must say a very impressive achievement by the Overcome team on Icarus 3.0

I have been staying away from ver 2.0 and 2 RC1 as it was just too buggy. I have been using  1.6.4 which is an excellent rom, with virtually no bugs

Have been on Icarus 3.0 for the past 6 hours

Being lazy i just restore everything thro titanium bsackup all my apps which were backup on 1.6.4. Very efficient restore with no force closures. This is something unseen of in previous version of 2.0 - then I need to delete, clear data and reinstall some problematic apps

I have never tried Hermes but i find no browser lag at all in this version 3.0 . Most important the old issues of cursor inaccuracy n jumping off screen, display view disappear while typing when posting and replying in lowyat forums was completely solved. This was the killer point when using 2.0 and 2RCi - I gaveup posting/replying at LY forums when on it. Such issues were also in 1.6.4 but manageable. This problem is now solve in ver 3.0 - I have been posting/replying LY forums for the past few hours on my Tab ; must say the keyboard is close to perfect on default browser, Dolphin HD and Opera

My immediate impression is  very good vs previous 2.0RC1. My congrats to you guys for getting it done so well

Have laso tested most of my commonly used apps - no issues at all ; not even one force closure

EXCELLENT and a job very well done

For upgraders , do flash the stock GB v4 than only flash the Icarus zip through recovery. Your internal SD card contents will be wiped clean - so backup all important stuffs first. I selected JPZ modem - working fine

owh maii....another RM0.50 for international activation of whatsapp again....this is the 8th time now...uwaaaaaaaaaaaaaa doh.gif

Bought the card at Low Yat one of the booths. Apacer 16GB. Together with the SGT. They loaded some stuff on it. But I cannot see it on the PC. havent yet checked it on the SGT itself.

probably the card infected with spyware/virus/worm...try scanning the card on a reliable PC and try to clean whatever that is affecting the card... hmm.gif

Wassup guys. I really interested with this tab. One question thou, with 3.15MP camera, is it any good? A seller just tell me that we can install a camera application that can make the camera setting better. true or not?

really hope i can get a reply as I really interested with this tab
*
the app probably enhance the picture with effects or post image processing...the 3.15MP won't change to a 5MP or 8MP... smile.gif its ok to use for uploading to facebook or other social sites, unlike last time everytime I upload using IP4, the size of the pic affects the time to upload...in other words, the more MP ur phone has the larger the file sad.gif

I came across this.... brows.gif



So I tried it by putting the .zip files downloaded from the xda-dev forum and just update it on top of Kratos...I also wiped everything clean wink.gif

First time after rebooting, I was blown away by the whole GUI and after fiddling around...however, some stuff doesn't work and 3G seems not activated although all the data enabled turned on and the APN has been inputted...

Its a promising great mod rom....just right now, the non-working stuff are those which are important...

-from kratos u flash mui from HERE ..latest version is 1.9.9...
-then u flash OVERCOME 3.3.1 kernel thru odin..switch off then go to OR..
-flash overcome kratos wipe version ..reboot to OR
-then flash KRATOS STEEL BLUE complete with tweak patch..wipe cache n reboot..

Depends on your time playing with the tab...With data n 3g enabled we're looking around 7-9 hours but if u off data n 3g..U would probably get more hours...

Off your tab....Aftet that press On button and Vol Up button simultaneously...it will bring up Android Recovery Options and using the Volume rocker, select Factory or Default settings...something that sounds like that biggrin.gif

Any battery saving tips guys...found out that my battery life not so good. Can only last for 6 hours with web browsing n email

Make sure fully charge before going to work or college....

Dun install a lot of widgets or social networking app...the more you have app like twitter/fb/others running at the back, the more your battery will be drained...try to use only 1 app that can have 2 or 3 function at the same time.. ensure 3G or Data is off if you don't have a Data Plan...Ensure Wifi is only on at the area where wifi signal is available...make sure your apps doesn't keeps pushing data behind your back without you knowing....
