Hmmmm... seems like all the sifus here only talking about customising and updating this & that!  We newbies no one wana answer... I asked some simple starter questions, and they havent been answered?

Or is there another forum thread I shud ask simple questions in? Please guide me. Tx.

Where is the forum etiquette nowadays...

1st, read the first few posts....ALL of it.

Then only ask your question. Admitting you're newbie already meant RTFM first biggrin.gif

I like your last part ;-)

Both my posts above said the magic word "Please" ... is there something I missed?

Yes, yes, I did RTFM ... but anyone who owns a unit would know wat the FM looks like & wat kinda info is in there ... Anyway, just thought I'd try getting some helpful soul on the forums to guide me ;-)

No worries, really!

My orig questions were:

icon_question.gif

1. the screen kind of changes from bright to dim, by itself every now & then. i thought it was something to do with the light sensor > maybe when my hand blocks the light sensor, the screen gets dimmer? anyone else experience this?

2. How to do the personalisation on the opening screen ... where is says This phone belongs to ....? I've looked thru all the settings, etc, cannot find that.

3. Although my time is set correctly (I can see the correct time at the top right corner) ... but in the World Clock, if I set one for KL, I get the wrong time. Why?

4. I also got a 16GB SD Card new from the same shop ... but when I try to read the card in my PC via the SD adaptor, I get a mesg saying the card is not formatted. Neither can I format the card on the PC.

5. I then tried to connect the Tab to my laptop. Again I get an error saying cannot connect. What am I doing wrong?

Thanx Shinzan and any other sifu who'd like to  icon_question.gif  out ;-)

1. That's auto sensor in the works. You're correct the small hole top right ish is the sensor. Go manual if you hate it.

2. Hm.. i've never found that as well.. never bothered about it in any case biggrin.gif

3. did you check setting -> date and time. Set to auto.

4. Setting -> SD card and device storage.

5. Same as previous post mentioned.. or try Press and hold both Power + Vol_Down button. It will reboot into download mode.

Check your charger output, GST charger output higher than SGS i think... you might wreck your batt .

Agree! !!! anyone else facing the same issue.
its very obvious when u go to gallery. the photos albums loads bit by bit. sick!
is there any one click way to root it?
thanks

I use Quickpic by alensq.com ... its by far one of the best Gallery replacement for me. Can hide/ignore/password protect folders. lightning fast as well.

i really like this tab ^^
now im still thinking want to root and flash cooked rom or not....
coz i just use it to surfnet, email, and simple office work and i heard in order to install papago must root the device?
*
If that's the only thing you do, don't bother with cooked rom. Benny said default GB is much better than froyo.

Why worry about batt? Get a car charger and hook it up.

I'm not really good at doing reviews, but OC7 v4 is a noticeable improvement over Kratos.

Smoother operation, beautiful wallpaper and Roboto font, seems a bit better at multitasking than Kratos, battery life about the same and 3G works nicely as before.

Thanx! Just in time for the weekend to poke around.
