WOW, guys. So happy to hear that so many of you have gotten the Tab 7 Plus already. I have a review unit with me, playing with it and loving it very much.

For those who is still unsure, check out my First Impression blog post here >> http://www.winniekepala.com/2011/11/samsun...rst-impression/

I'm collecting questions if you want me to test or answer for the full review post coming next week. Let me know.

PS. I have been scouring the internet for cases as well. tongue.gif

Samsung unveils Honeycomb-running Galaxy Tab 7.0 Plus
30 September, 2011

Today Samsung introduced another member to its lineup of Android-powered tablets. The Galaxy Tab 7.0 Plus runs on the Android 3.2 Honeycomb and packs the Exynos chipset with a 1.2 GHz CPU under the hood.

The slate's 7" PLS LCD has a resolution of 1024 x 600 pixels. The Samsung Galaxy Tab 7.0 Plus has two onboard cameras - a 3 MP main shooter at the back that also does 720p video and a 2 MP front-facing snapper for video-chatting.
   
The Galaxy Tab 7.0 Plus has quad-band GSM/GPRS/EDGE support (yeah, it has telephony!) and tri-band 3G with 21 Mbps HSPA. The tablet, which will come in 16GB and 32GB flavors (both packing a microSD card slot), comes with dual-band Wi-Fi a/b/g/n, GPS and Bluetooth radios.

The Android 3.2 Honeycomb platform has been spiced up with Samsung's home-backed TouchWiz UI on the Samsung Galaxy Tab 7.0 Plus. The included 1GB of RAM makes sure that Honeycomb will be able to fulfill its great multi-tasking potential.

Coming with a decently sized 4,000 mAh battery the droid measures 193.65 x 122.37 x 9.96 mm and weighs just 345g.

Samsung Galaxy Tab 7.0 Plus will be available in Indonesia and Austria from end-October with worldwide availability to follow shortly after that. No pricing info has been revealed so far.

samsung should focus on making a better tab and phone for designated markets (e.g mid range and high end) that can really beat the i devices, instead they r now machine gunning the market with EVERY conceivable size of gadgets. they will eventually fail big time like this. Choices are good, but too much choices will just confuse consumers and they'll just give up choosing and instead choose the ONLY ONE phone or tab that apple offers

not to mention game developers will have a big headache. that's why its easier to develop games for ios because their sizes are limited/pretty much the same

Different focus from amazon. Kindle fire is not meant to be a mainstream tablet and what's more, is us only at the moment.

Tablet cannot make calls right ? but some prefer to have both calls and bigger screen .Maybe that's why 7 inch and 8.9 inch is out for larger screen+calls ?

As far as I know, Ipad 3G can't make telco block charge voice call by it default and this feature also got someone hack to make this work.

the price is so expensive aa... even it has the call function but some will insert the broadband simcard only... like the old 7 one...

however, this is a good news for the old 7inch owner. maybe we will see Honeycomb Overcome in future weeks? drool.gif

the price high maybe because..
u cant compare with 10.1 as this model cant make voice call.


dual core? better lcd display? honey comb? better gpu?

I liked the size but at that spec and price im truly disappointed. The camera is miserable. And the price is premium. If youre gonna put in a low spec camera to save costs then reduce the price instead of trying to maximise your profit and chop loyal customers.

What i want is tab 10.1v in 7 inch. 10.1v was a killer tab and beautiful and i would have bought it at 2k

When it first announced, I am going to wait for this tab 7+ as well, but really disappointed with the price if it is same as 10.1.
First I thought Sammy will drop the price for old tab 7 and make this new 7+ around RM1500~1600, but seem not the case.
Furthermore, now is end of the year, many rumors that quad core table is coming, ice cream, galaxy note.......etc, so many choices in the market that maybe better than this. Thus, will see how other prices going then only consider this new 7+.

tab 7+ coming in first, followed by tab 8.9 and 7.7 (november) and galaxy note (december)

Retail price for tab 7+ rm1699.

I doubt the tab 7.7 retail price would be lower 1699. Should be 1799 or 1899 or at least on par with p7500.

as for tab 7.7, my source from SME said there is no exact price yet, this model only going to be release next month(november)

Htc sensation XE already available now for sale SIS rm1899
One is a phone while the 7 inch is a tablet - so no problem to decide. I would say is unwise and not practicl to buy the 7 inch tablet to be use as a phone

my opinion is 7+ not worth to buy if the price diff is only 200, then i will go for tab 7.7. if price diff more then 3-400 then i go for tab 7+ will do... haha. cause i need to buy before end of Nov, so will just tak either 1 that already in the market.

i know wat function i am looking for:
light call
heavy internet
movie time in the car for my kid
sdcard is a must
smooth

that's it.


since both are dual core with 1gb ram, i believe it will b smoother then current tab 7. then i am satisfied already.


by the way, is 7+ screen better then tab 7 ?

the tab 7+, 7.7, galaxy note all will be more powerful than tab10.1 . because they all use the exynos chipset instead of the crappy tegra 2 .

tab 7+ coming in first, followed by tab 8.9 and 7.7 (november) and galaxy note (december)

Retail price for tab 7+ rm1699.

I doubt the tab 7.7 retail price would be lower 1699. Should be 1799 or 1899 or at least on par with p7500.

as for tab 7.7, my source from SME said there is no exact price yet, this model only going to be release next month(november)
*
When the tab 7+ and 7.7 come in to Malaysia this and next month, will Samsung officially announced it or advertise it? At first thinking of getting the 10.1 wifi, but seems that this 7.7 is better in terms of specs, only the size smaller. If the price is RM1.7k and below, should be considering this.
As my opinion, tab 7.7 is much better than 7+, agreed that if price only RM200 different, the 7.7 should be a better choice

sgt tab 7+ & 7.7 are not much diff if we compare it side by side, you should look here http://www.gsmarena.com/compare.php3?idPho...8&idPhone2=4136 , the only differ is the processor, screen size & quality and storage..

tata why... i feel like Galaxy Tab 7 is not worth at all.... the 7.7 is thinner than it but only 1cm broader, then the CPU is faster, the battery size also bigger.... i may consider it as my next upgrade.

reason dunno why, just feel 7+ more suitable for me than 7.7. extra weight 10g is barely noticeable lol

anyway, anyone know the retail price for 7+ and 7.7 as for now?
if 7.7 is same price with 7+, then i reconsider laugh.gif

if you are referring to the original tab 7", you can basically get it anywhere
if you are referring to the 7+ and 7.7, please stay in the queue and wait until the cows come home...

Dear all,

Just want to check any one have this problem too..just got mine unit last night and have this strange marks..izzit normal or should i send for warranty?

From xda forum:

I’ve a strange problem with the screen of my Note, I noticed this when switching off the phone in a complete dark room. The screen turns dark grey for a split second before switching off, this is when I noticed some strange black marks beneath the screen.

I made a jpeg to replicate this problem (1st attachment), along with a screen capture of the marks (2nd attachment). Can somebody please download the picture and check to see if there are any marks on their phone?

You need to be in a complete dark room for this to work, it helps if you turn the screen brightness to 100% and allow a bit of time for your eyes to adjust to the dark.

I also added roughly what the marks look like.

Many thanks

P.S. this does not affect the screen in normal use.

the performance of this tab 7+ should on par with i9100. hmm.gif

not really worth upgrade from p1000. P6200 is for those wanted to buy p1000 previously.
This model not really hot as 7.7 p6800

My guess this model will get ICS soon brows.gif

p/s waiting for 7.7 whistling.gif

Stock will arrive today frm SME, price 15xx

Like I say, I prefer 7+ than 7.7 simply because 7+ is just right size for my small hand and 7.7 super amoled is more energy consuming...

Also, i "think" it takes more processing power to process the higher res from 7.7 than 7.0.... in which, i would assume, the 7.0plus "could" be smoother than 7.7 hmm.gif

Hi all, if you still can't find stock, go to Harvey Norman. Just bought mine there. RM1699 though, but no extra charge for credit card. Plus, get to use my Amex card so got 5x treat points! Optional Harvey Norman extended warranty too.

Hi all, if you still can't find stock, go to Harvey Norman. Just bought mine there. RM1699 though, but no extra charge for credit card. Plus, get to use my Amex card so got 5x treat points! Optional Harvey Norman extended warranty too.

Any reason SEP can provide 2 year and dealer 1 year. Dealer product not good quality?

It's the same product =.= the only difference is SEP probably has a deal with samsung to provide longer warranty period.

i've read through some online reviews saying that this tab that goes into the US market doesn't have the voice call support (they disable it). is there any confirmation that we local unit won't face the same thing too? it's important for me as i want to buy this tab and makes it as a phone too.

i know it's silly but i don't mind having a pretty big gadget as long as it can do what i want, as a phone and also a portable device for browsing the internet,skype,etc3.

Confirmed that our local unit has phone function. Just molested 1 just now @ Best Denki Tropicana City.

Love the HC interface so much! Slim, quite smooth and lightweight too! The silly sales fella didnt allow me to peel off the screen plastic.

Now my heart is leaning towards this drool.gif

hey guys help me out. I cant seem yo get mine to LOCK. Even after i enabled LOCKSCREEN the thing just would not go into lockscreen mode.

On a side note

Does anyone know what MAKE and MODEL the ASTRO Byond decoder is? I want to set my Tab 7+ into a universal remote. So far i only manage to set my DVD and HDTV.

Last but not least is there a way to get Samsung Voice Command app like the one in NOTE and SGS2? i miss using the voice control because it is awesome

Yes u can make phone call and unlike the OLD tab 7 this one comes with an earpiece. U can actually put your ears on the tablet and use it like a BLOWN UP Galaxy Note. No more talking using speaker phone

Better yet if u are an old Galaxt Tab 7 user the old accessories can be reused

I have the Car Dock for my old tab and it works. U might need to squeeze in a lil coz the 7+ is a about 5 mm longer than the old Tab. Slimmer but longer..... but still all my old accessories works like a charm

thinking of getting tis one...
just worry abt to carry tis around, so "big"
can put inside pocket easily?

n also te resolution... how good is with 1280x800..

u hardly notice the diff in reso. Plus when u have teh same reso as SGS2 app will fit. Apps on NOTE does not scale uo

tested Asphalt 6 and MOLOME on NOTE. The display become small. I think 1024x600 reso is the sweet spot. Even IPADS are using this reso and SAME LPS LCD panel. i never see ipad user complain reso is low or the screen not nice enuff

just go to SETTING and set the pictune TONE ti vivid and wallah awesome!

I think most Samsung users are not even aware of the colour tone feature buried inside the display setting

Amirite?

OK. Here's a quick review. Hardware wise, the speed and performance is like using a SGS 2. BUT coming from a gingerbread background, I can tell you the Honeycomb experience is different, especially when using this as a phone. Perhaps it takes some time to get used to.

Many of you will be concerned about the screen res and it not being AMOLED. I have used the SGS 1 and then the SGS 2, both of which have great screens, but seriously this is not a big issue. You see, most of us do not switch on full brightness anyway, to save battery and all. Also, the colors on AMOLED is kinda over saturated, and I being a designer, I'm used to great screens like those on Sony Vaio Z and Macs. The Tab Plus has more natural colors. About the screen resolution, well, you do loose out if you wanna put lots of icons and Widgets on the screen. Sharpness of course is way better on the AMOLED, but the 1024x768 seems normal. Becoz the screen size is small,.a lower res isn't that bad.

I was waiting for the 7.7 as well, but with a premium of about RM1k extra, may not be worth it. Compare some prices online between the 7.0 plus wifi models and the pre-order 7.7 wifi models and you can estimate it. Amoled screens are not cheap. Take a look at the price of SGS 2 and Galaxy Note. It's safe to say the 7.7 will be more than RM2300, at least. Thinness is not an issue unless you wanna use the tab with casings of any kind, which will add to the thickness . Processor difference of 0.2 GHz, well no comments on that.

Other than that, both 7+ and 7.7 share similar specs. Also, due to the lower price, the Tab Plus will be a more popular choice, hence greater support for custom roms etc.

I bought this tab mainly for the phone function capabilities, which 10.1 and 8.9 don't have. There's even a phone dialer mini app that you can call from anywhere. The stock SMS is a good experience, but I have yet to try Handscent. Pulse is a cool way to tracking your fav sites, and I use it mainly for RSS. Browser is great, and remember to switch on the quick controls in settings>labs for an easier browsing experience. I decided to use Go Keyboard due to it's split keyboard function.

The honeycomb experience is great, and you get to use gingerbread applications, like whatsapp. K-9 email users can switch to Kaiten. Friend caster is nice on honeycomb because of the split pane view.

Oh yeah, finding accessories will be tough for now. First, the old Galaxy Tab 1 screen protectors are smaller, and you have to cut a hole for the ear piece. Secondly, Galaxy Tab casings will not fit, due to thickness and size difference. The Tab Plus is actually longer and wider. Because the unit is not launched in China yet, so we'll have to wait a while for the casing. But there is a workaround. Solution for the casing? Use HTC Flyer one! They fit the tab plus well.

In conclusion, I think Samsung did a good job with the Tab Plus. I've been using it for more than a day, and getting the hang of things. From a SGS user, you'll first miss the back button and home screen button, until you get used to the ones at the lower left. Many people are concerned about the screen shot button but not worries, as you can change it to launch the app drawer or camera. Battery life is decent, but it does take some time to charge due to it's bigger capacity.

Mac users will suffer a little, though. As there is no way you can mount the Tab Plus as a drive. OSX doesn't support MTP like Windows, and Kies is still in beta. You can either get a USB adaptor that can read your thumb drive and portable HDDs, or use a third party software previously used to sync Macs and Creative MP3 players.

So guys and gals, wait no more. Tab Plus is worth the money you pay, and will give you a very unique phone+ tablet experience.

Car dock is fine, but does your casing blocks the proximity sensor on the top side of your phone? I have tested a few and because the proximity sensor is blocked off, once I'm using the phone, the screen will go blank.

But if your casing works well, then it's good for you.

Faced the same problem with whatsapp. What I did was copy my whatsapp folder from my old phone over to the new Tab, then instead of installing from the market, I downloaded from whatsapp website. Now it works. Hope that helps.

so, did any of you guysget the screen protector or casing for your unit?

the shop that i bought from yesterday don't have the casing yet and since they did not offer me the screen protector i'm guessing they do not have the screen protector either since they said this is new unit and they don't haave the accesories that goes with it.

i'm going to lowyat plaza today to look for the screen protector and casing. if i've got more money to spend i'm going to look for a cheap bluetooth headset too.

Let us know what cases you find in LY Plaza. Maybe take some snapshots. Looking for a slim profile case.
I don't think the SP's are available yet. Might have to DIY mine from a spare Tab 10.1 SP.

I bought 2 units, I asked for a chapalang screen saver for free and to be replaced with a foc proper screen protector later.

I bought the HTC flyer casing which can be exchanged for the proper casing later too.

The only regret I have is to buy the unit and dun have the chance to play with it yet sad.gif

1. Casing :
I did not find a single shop selling for tab plus. I bought mine for RM50, originally for tab P1000. But, since this is the slimmest i took it for temporary.

Screen Protector :
Mostly offering me the P1000 version but they will cut the top part for speaker for calling. Cheapest is RM30. I havn't purchase yet. Will look for a littlembit more.

Right, this is what i got from hunting session today blush.gif

1. Casing/Pouch.
It was originally for old tab. but since most shops did not have stock for our tab, i took this. it's the slimmest i've found.
» Click to show Spoiler - click again to hide... «


2. Screen Protector.
Most shop did not have stock for this version, i took this. Brand is Screen Guard.
» Click to show Spoiler - click again to hide... «

As you can see, this was originally for P1000, but they modded the box and wrote 7.0 Plus instead icon_idea.gif .

and this is how it looks like on my tab.
» Click to show Spoiler - click again to hide... «

i focus on the top part so that you guys can see how does it look when they had to cut the screen protector a little bit to make way for our earpiece which the old tab does not come with.

So, if you guys are not like me which is a little careless, just wait for another week and hopefully all the accesories for this new tab of ours will start to come in. if you can't, and you want protection (screen protector) , just go to any accesories shop and purchase the screen protector for old tab with the top part cut out. that will work for a temporary protection icon_rolleyes.gif

am looking forward to buy a g. tab 7 plus in few days time. i kinda like the application Note (not sure the exact full name) for taking notes that i think i can use to jolt down notes during meetings.
just to ask, anybody can recommend a good stylus that work nicely with the tab? i read some articles online that some stylus brands are not that suitable with the tab. any help i can get is highly appreciated. thanks smile.gif

full charged at 8.45am. until now still got 8%.

Usage until 10pm :
-Mostly using Edge on my digi (disable HSDPA to conserve more energy)
-occasionally changed to HSDPA for uploading some pictures and host a wifi hotspot for missus 3GS while we were having lunch
-got home at 6pm,disable data plan and been using home wifi until now.

bear in mind, this is my only 2nd day of using. so, the battery consumption might get better flex.gif

so, did any of you guysget the screen protector or casing for your unit?

the shop that i bought from yesterday don't have the casing yet and since they did not offer me the screen protector i'm guessing they do not have the screen protector either since they said this is new unit and they don't haave the accesories that goes with it.

i'm going to lowyat plaza today to look for the screen protector and casing. if i've got more money to spend i'm going to look for a cheap bluetooth headset too.

Hope you manage to get your screen protector. Mine was modified (have to cut near the earpiece). Doesn't look fantastic, but it's better than not having the screen protected...

Waiting for the propers ones soon.

Oh yeah, if you are into charging your tab in your car, may wanna get one that can actually charge tabs. Tabs need more power to charge, and not all car chargers work.

1. Casing :
I did not find a single shop selling for tab plus. I bought mine for RM50, originally for tab P1000. But, since this is the slimmest i took it for temporary.

Screen Protector :
Mostly offering me the P1000 version but they will cut the top part for speaker for calling. Cheapest is RM30. I havn't purchase yet. Will look for a littlembit more.

Hi bro, there's this shop called Future, I think, on the 2nd Floor of LYP. I got my screen protector there for RM15.

Check if you can make calls when using the casing. If the casing blocks the proximity sensor, then your screen will be permanently blacked out when on calls. Got pics of your casing? I used a HTC flyer one, RM55.

Any reason you rooted your tab? Titanium backup? Are there custom roms already in the market?

I am a fan of rooting.


Added on November 28, 2011, 10:40 amI just got a USB OTG adaptor for the Tab Plus. So far it can read thumb drives only. Tried plugging in external HDD, both desktop and portable versions, but can't read. Anyone got experience?

No custom roms yet
Root it :
- use Titanium Backup to restore all my apps/data from another android ; no need to reinstall each app individually. Whole process just took me 10 mins
- install adfree to get rid of those annoying apps
- install root explorer to tweak the phone settings if necessary

USB external HD must be in FAT32 format ; will not work if NTFS. IF size is bigger than 80 GB - your USB harddrive need to be powered on

Hey, thanks for the advice on the external HDD. I think my 1TB is NTFS. Converting it now will be a problem coz it's 90% full.

I noticed you are a Mac user. Did you manage to mount your Tab using USB? Gingerbread was easy to transfer files using USB, but because of the MTP used by Honeycomb, OSX has problems accessing the device.

Yeap. I've got both screen protector and casing. Both were meant for the old tab tho. But, it's good enough for a temporary solution.

Anyway guys, what have you installed in your tab?

Mine :
-viber
-whatsapp
-oovoo
-tweetdeck
-facebook

Yeap, pathetic list. I have yet to use this baby to its fullest -,-'

Hi bro, how to boot into recovery? Once the device is off, i pressed power + volume down, then I see a warning screen asking to press volume up to continue, and volume down to restart tablet. When I press volume up, it goes into "downloading... do not turn off target!!"

Any advice?

Battery life is better than the older 7 " Tab. Watching a 2 hour length movie , battery about 20+ % used
Normal usage easily 10 hours I estimate

So guys, which one consumes less battery?

1. Using EDGE
2. Using wifi

From my experience with HTC Wildfire (froyo), using wifi can make battery last longer. While HSDPA mode consumes more power than EDGE. I set the network mode to GSM only thus i can only enjoy EDGE speed.

As I know, EDGE/3G or data uses more battery if the place you are at has inconsistent connection. Most of the time, extra power is used to get on the network. I have tried using data vs wifi thru my YES device, and with the latter, the battery last longer. Of course, if your data connection is stable, then perhaps 3G/EDGE is a better bet.

Hello guys,

When i connect to computer via usb, there is no function to safely remove from pc is it? Straight away pull out the usb?

This happens to me both in samsung kies and as external storage as well.

safer to right click on the usb icon on desktop taskbar (right hand corner) and click "safely eject".
But I usually just pull it out when I am sure everything has been copied/no more activity.

Sometimes the power output is not high enough. Like car chargers, not all can charge the Galaxy Tab, and other tabs in the market. I just bought a new car chargers today which USB port is designed for charging Tabs. You can buy from Ring Mobile (bdotcome) at Lelong.my.

I have a capdase usb adaptor that doesn't charge my Tab too. At home, I use the one that came with the package.

Hi. Perhaps you wanna try copying your whole whatsapp folder from the old phone over? personally I don't think it's the contacts issue, because on my phone I never keep any contacts. All are Synced in from google.

Hmph, don't think so. I would think it follows the phone number. Well, if you wife can copy the folder and zip it for you, should be okay. Important is there are some database files in the old whatsapp folder that is linked to contacts. My best guess lar.

Coz initially when I install Whatsapp without copying over the folder, I had the same problem as you. I then uninstall, reinstall from the website and copy over the folder. Works!

Well, guess you have to live without whatsapp for a while... sad.gif

Argh, I accidentally updated to DXKK5 too, through software update in Settings>About phone. Haven't experience the lag yet.

By the way, for those whom have bought the Galaxy Tab Casing and have your proximity sensor blocked, you can disable the sensor in Settings> Screen.

WOW, guys. So happy to hear that so many of you have gotten the Tab 7 Plus already. I have a review unit with me, playing with it and loving it very much.

My contacts estimate between 2 weeks to a month. Either sacrifice the proximity sensor or use the HTC flyer casing for temporary solutions. I rather it not look 100% chun, then kena a few scratches. Any idea if the screen is Gorilla Glass?

WOW, guys. So happy to hear that so many of you have gotten the Tab 7 Plus already. I have a review unit with me, playing with it and loving it very much.

Great first impression there. You're right about the mysterious and almost mystical Tab 7.7. Just tired of waiting for that and went for the Tab Plus instead.

However, the 8.9 almost won the sale if not for the inability (for now, at least until custom ROMs are out). Samsung is really into spoiling us with choices...)

Usually those devices that are more popular will have more cookers working on the ROMs. Like SGS1, HTC Desire etc.

Hopefully with the pricing and portability factor of the 7+, it will be a more popular choice. If it's true that 7.7 is way more expensive, then quite unlikely for people to risk playing with custom ROMs on it too.

Well, those are just guesses....

New tab 7+ user report im. Yeah.
I notice there is a lot diff compare to tab 7. Well i am compare stock rom to stock rom. Keyboard layout. Weight. Screen sharper also. Everything look nicer and smooth...
Screen is vy responsive as well. I can said worth to buy and don need wait for 7.7. This unit is rock.

I think i want to point out...just want to confirm....i saw my unit taken out from the seal box. Sme set. So in the shop while waiting them to process my unit and register with samsung, i put im my sim card and start to configure.... And i set my google account to sync my contact and bookmark. Then once finish setup i found out that my prvious tab unit setting also has been sign including my wallpaper...amazing. And those apps that i install previously also inside! U guys hv the same experience also? My unit when i walk out from shop comes with angry bird la. Dophine browser la. Friend caster la. Newspaper apps la....wow. At first i still thought this is used set...


Added on November 30, 2011, 10:41 pmI am vy sure my set is new set cause when i take from the counter the seal is still sealed.....

i think if you set to back up your info to your google account, it will restore to any android device you subsequently use the same google account with - even wifi passwords are stored and transferred if i'm not mistaken.

Found out from my retailer that Samsung Galaxy Tab 7 plus Bluetooth version 3.0 does not support Bluetooth wireless devices having versions earlier than 3.0. Cannot pair my old Jabra and Sony Ericcson wireless bluetooth devices. Tha tab sucks.

Hmph, don't think so. I would think it follows the phone number. Well, if you wife can copy the folder and zip it for you, should be okay. Important is there are some database files in the old whatsapp folder that is linked to contacts. My best guess lar.

Coz initially when I install Whatsapp without copying over the folder, I had the same problem as you. I then uninstall, reinstall from the website and copy over the folder. Works!

Well, guess you have to live without whatsapp for a while... sad.gif
guess i will have to wait someone send message to me to chat..luckily my groups chat still available although it just appear as phone number..i had to recheck with my phonebook to know who i'm chatting with...

I took a risk and select SGS II in ROM MANAGER and finally managed to installed ClockworkMod Recovery v4.0.1.5. Flashing the recovery takes about 5 mins - have patience waiting for it to be fully flash.
Did a immediate backup of my present rom ( about 2.3 GB , took about 10 mins ). Now I feel safe to flash other roms

i have a presentation tomorrow so i bought a TV Out cable, which is for P1000, when i tried connect it to LCD Projector..it's not working

when i use my friend Tab P1000, i work just fine..

i thought with a same port, it can use same accessories...

luckily, i still can claim the cable cost with my company..not so cheap item

now 930am still left 5%. My previous p1000 could not achieve this!

RM189. 3 colours IINM. But they dont have a unit that is out of the box and they dont allow you to open to look at it first. I think I''ll just skin mine for now - still fits into my trouser pocket nicely. The playbook was too tight a fit in my pocket.

well, if you don't want to copy contacts via gmail account. you can use your iphone and copy all the contact to your sim then to your laptop/pc. once you replace to new sim, copy again all your contact to tab+ from laptop.

for whatsapp,
always download from www.whatsapp.com , they have always latest version than the one at market (most of the time)

i'm enjoying this phone/tablet (depends on you tongue.gif). only a few things i don't like but i'm more than happy to live with :

1. charging process is slower than my old HTC wildfire (duhh, it's a tablet)
2. facebook official app keeps force closed
3. viber app keeps force closed
4. friend caster somtimes also force closed


those force closed i believe it has something to do with the honeycomb. more updates coming i'm sure those will get fixed nod.gif

Just came back with brand new 7 plus smile.gif bought @ ss15 for RM1569...

Originally plan to purchase from celcom with contract @ PC Fair. Apparently they give RM300 cash back (from the advance) on the spot. But all the celcom plan is valid for new no registration only (I'm already using celcom postpaid). A bit disappointed. Nevertheless i got my tab 7 plus anyway tongue.gif

Looking for a nice case. Do old 7" (p1000) casing will work on our 7 plus? can this capdase capparel case can fit:

Bought one for my wife on Saturday from LowYat. Have to say I'm very impressed. Samsung did a good job on an entry level tab+phone. The fact that it's Honeycomb is what made it an excellent deal.

most importantly, "samsung galaxy tab 7 plus" more easily into a jacket pocket and is easy to hold and application of "Honeycomb" is the best compared to the previous SGT tab 7

I'm no expert but I see you have an exchange service there. Maybe that contributes? My wife sees around 65% battery use by the time she comes home, and then it's youtube for 1-2 hours for my son which brings it down to 10-15%.

I'm no expert but I see you have an exchange service there. Maybe that contributes? My wife sees around 65% battery use by the time she comes home, and then it's youtube for 1-2 hours for my son which brings it down to 10-15%.

Exchange is sync my hotmail and yahoo
Ur wife din sync?
Now left 61% after nearly 7 hour usage

Will be heading to U Mobile to get this this coming Sat.

Have to wait till telco change transition is complete before they let me buy the unit. Unless I wanted to get a new number which I absolutely don't want.

just wanted to ask 1 question. i wanted to move apps installed on the phone to the sd card..search around and try an application called "APP 2 SD". install fine but cant see the option to move the apps although "APP 2 SD" stated that i can move them apps. is it because my 7 plus has not been rooted? thanks

i know is much batery consumption but if compare battery size, 7+ battery capacity is 4000 but iphone just 1420mah
base on iphone4 the phone can has standby time 10 days above but i just need standby time 24 hour for my tab 7+.
i will try monitor again today usage.
base on current usage i estimate can get 29 hour and 9 min which is ok for me

i've used ip4 for almost a year until i traded for 7+...

there is no way it can be put on standby 10 days for ip4 (or did i got it understood wrongly?)

should you want your tab7+ to survive more then 24hrs can, just turn off your data 3g and set your screen brightness to the lowest and turn off all sound..lastly you can only play with your phone maximum 15 minutes per 24hours...

by doing these, you may be able to archive 24hours standby...but for me, it defeat the purpose of having this great tab..

ok dun take it seriously...

for normal use ip4 i manage to get it use 2 day+ before charging.
the main purpose i need longer standby time is due to charging problem.
normal phone can use usb charging but tablet maybe not.
however, this is not issue any more as i found something intresting on 7+

DO YOU GUY TRY PLUG IN TO USB AND TRY CHARGE?
when i use 10.1 maybe it still can charge over usb but very very very slow
but this 7+ when i plug in to USB even the icon show not charging but my tab 7+ can fully charge from 85% to 100% in just 1 hour rclxub.gif

Agreed. But, unlike you my previous hp was htc wildfire. The battery was worst than this and it lag also. So, having this tab which is miles smoother and better with better battery (at least for me), i say it's worth it.

Agreed. If you are looking for an android tab with better screen and not looking for gsm calling to make it a phone, by all means go for 8.9,10.1 or even 7+ for that matter. I took this solely because i wamted a tablet and i wanted a phone as well.

yeah... this phone is good for ppl need tablet with call function... if have extra and can wait... then go for best of both world the 7.7 (which might or might not release in the market)... If just for a tablet with better screen and not too big... go for 8.9

That's why I bought it for my wife. Women have big handbags to put their stuff in, and she appreciates not having to bring a big note book around to outside meetings. She's very impressed with the device. Honeycomb works well, Polaris Office is a GREAT addition and as she's not too occupied with e-penis stats like "speed and benchmarks" I think it's an awesome device.

If the speed is so important to you then get the Note lah.

The 7plus is a good entry level honeycomb device with telephony at below RM 1800. Not many other devices in that form factor from a reputable manufacturer in that price range with the same features.

Than you do a factory reset ; other apps from dubious sources will affect it too

Bought the Anymode case from Novacell.... quite expensive though at RM189. Got a purple one. Wonder if it's really leather or not as the packaging claims. No leather smell at all.

Help!!, 'package file is invalid' e.g. Skype, cannot buy apps from market with credit card button dimmed e.g. ezypdf reader. Really frustrating and never experience it on S2. Do factory reset still same. Any suggestion will be much appreciated.

Hrm, i don't feel that my unit lag though. But then again, i switch off all the things that i'm not using and so far only installed friendcaster for facebook.

Not really into installing games n stuff though. This tab will be useful when I travel. biggrin.gif no need to bring lappy dy.
