Could someone give me some confirmed info?

I'm just curious as to what it is. I'd be really interested in an android tablet. I currently have an eris... which is pretty weak.
I've googled a lot but everything seems to be old or "rumored" so could someone help me out? I'd appreciate it.

What is it you want to know?
Sent from my HTC Desire

Specs, pricing, will it be google supported, full market place?

Oh and I'm also really curious to see if anyone has tried logmein to remote access their computers. I do it on my Eris but it's slow. I've seen it on the iPad and it's much better. How is it on the GTab?

Pricing isn't announced yet in most of the world.
For every other piece of infromation, why not just, eh, check the official website? I mean, have you even looked at Samsung's website? It lists all the specs for the device and few other details.
tl;dr: Price - dunno, not announced
"with Google" -experience - yes, if you mean GMail, Market and stuff.
Full Marketplace - Yes, it's a full phone and has all the capabilities as such, even market.
ps. Aside from the larger (and different) display, the Tab is essentially a Galaxy S.

Perfect thanks.

Does it Have an FM Radio Chip on it?

sorry but just to clarify this is a full phone but in tablet format?
so the inbuilt cell is capable of making GSM calls the same as say an iphone, NOT just able to use 3g connectivity for web as say a iPad?
wonder why the camera spec is so lame?

YES.
I'm sorry if I YET AGAIN sound angry or frustrated, it's not specifically you.
But don't you people ever think of yourselves and either read the official site or google around before asking questions? Yes, it's a full GSM/GPRS/EDGE/UMTS phone. The official site lists all the bands the phone works on. (except I hear the USA version lacks the phone capabilities? but retains data/sms? I don't know.)
http://galaxytab.samsungmobile.com/
or head to http://www.samsung.com/ and navigate from there.
EDIT: Euro/FI version:
GSM&EDGE / 3G / CDMA / TD-SCDMA - 850 / 900 / 1800 / 1900 MHz
3G - 900 / 2100 MHz
GPRS - Yes
EDGE - Yes
3G - HSDPA 7,2 Mbps / HSUPA 5,76 Mbps

ICON AND LIVE PEACEFULLY.i am here to take all the tensions..Now hope i don't sound rude!...for more on this,read the forum rules..

yes.... i hae got it on saturday and i have made GSM calls also...
GSM calls and 3g video calls are extra features compared to ipad which will need a seperate micro sim and 3g contract and pay extra
when at home i use wifi for the tab and while on long journeys , put my existing contract sim and use it and will not miss calls too , the display is just awesome and so smooth........
i dont need to take seperate contract for stupid things

Ah, good. What I did mean about that was that the other specs are official, but that part I haven't read anywhere but "rumor" sites.

As of right now they make no note of voice calling on american advertising ... It will be in the hardware but not in the firmware (rom) but im sure If we got a copy of your guys roms (all other countries besides US..lol) we will have the voice feature.

I'm not really clued up on all this but wouldn't this be tied in with the hardware? And since the Tab has been announced in the states not having voice(and possibly sms) capabilities wouldn't that mean it was missing the hardware to do it?
If that isn't the case then it's awesome for the people in the states to potentially have that option

Hi once again,
I am in Singapore and have XLA1. There's no support for Hindi in that. Is there any way to get it on stock rom? I tried fontoptimizer, but it doesn't work as the download link for the font file leads to 404 error.
Appreciate suggestions!!

Actually without DND also it sends messages from 9 am to 9 pm only to Indian subscribers but for the rest of the world it send them anytime.A good app but not 100% reliable in delivering the message.

Yeah I could never send a message ever at any time. If it's unreliable then maybe it should not be in this list

basically it was free to world SMS, when i have tried. n i have successfully send SMS to india as well qatar, USA and more too.
But Now they have limited to India n USA only, as well now having problem to deliver in india too.
I have removed from list, replaced with Android India.
Thogh it is not a specific application, but gives a market link to all indian application categorically.

Sorry I misunderstood the question, thought I was asked if I searched before posting the thread lol.
When I search on the device only pulls up web results no longer brings up device results.

Yeah, that's what I thought. It's an update to address an lawsuit Apple brought against Samsung for unified search. Google removed on device search results, probably until a better solution is found. Really disappointing. I'm not updating for sure.

Let us know if you're able to keep root.

Updated the title to include that the universal search feature had been removed with OTA.

Surely this is a class-action in the making? People purchase product with a specific feature set, feature is later removed. Now, it might be cheaper than fighting with Apple, or might be enforced by the courts, but it doesn't change the fact that something you paid for has been taken away.

I could have sworn I read that it was only on the Nexus device relating to this.
Samsung's/ATT's getting ahead of the curve here or something?

OK,
Rooted, protected with OTA Rootkeeper, and flashed stock recovery. Got the update installed and OTA Rootkeeper restored root. Happyface.
(doesn't fix standby reporting bug)

anyone that installed notice a difference in the baseband/radio? better/worse reception or data speeds?

I just got off of live chat with tech support. I had a good tech. He copied and pasted the OTA information he had internally.
Went something like this:
"Reason: Google Search Update"
And then the base band, how to tell customers how to perform the update, etc
Its a 10mb file.
So, pretty much it down grades the search function of Google Search.
Awesome...

I just rooted the phone after the OTA, have CWM and SU

If you buy from the UK would you be able to set it up with an American account and get all the American apps? (Hulu, Pandora, etc.)

Even more interesting is for me, if the us version can be converted to the european one.

Ordered mine today too

I was also one of the naive people ordering a US Amazon Fire TV a while ago to try it out in Germany I never managed to get it working, even after using Unlocator and fiddling around with settings of my Amazon account. So, since then, it's basically sitting in my living room doing nothing.
I'm thus also interested in converting a US Fire TV to a German Fire TV.
Will the German Fire TV be running a different firmware than the US version? If yes, will it be possible to manually flash a German firmware onto a US device? It's not rooted or anything...

Like some others have mentioned, This will be interesting.
Got my FTV from the USA, Wondering if I will be able to "convert" it to a UK model so I can get the native service / apps.
I would go ahead and order one from the UK while it is on offer but cant afford to loose root

seems that in UK have same offer, but £49...
Not in Spain, France or Italy yet...

Got One Hope this will become a nice XBMC Box to replace my RasPi in my Bedroom, which is quite on its limit with my installed AddOns + TVHeadend.

Ok, So I decided to send them an email regarding the "region change" of the existing USA Fire TV's,
I asked for my message to be forwarded onto the relevant team involved with the Fire TV for a more appropriate response,
Take of this what you will but they have told me that it will be possible, First you will need to migrate your account, Any purchases made will also transfer, Then once the device has launched in your country, in this case the UK you then need to look out for a firmware update.
They say they will put it up on their help pages.
So that's good news, Sad that it will be a firmware update but not unexpected, Guess I will wait till the time comes and consider my options. At this stage I could not give up my root :laugh:

It's part of the LS997 ROM released by Team DevDigitel. I should be able to get an APK for you but it's probably just as easy to extract it from the ROM. With LG stock apk's YMMV.
Sent from my LG-LS997 using XDA Labs

I know this apk works since I just pulled it from a ROM that has it included and it was working with the ROM. There must be some sort of dependency that is keeping it from running. I'm going to see if I can do some reverse engineering on it to find out what that dependency is. If anyone can save me a step, I'd be happy to hear what that dependency is!

Did you ever figure this out because I would like to do this myself. Also, you mentioned you had the stock messaging app working. Would you mind sharing the apk and any special instructions not covered by this post: https://forum.xda-developers.com/v20/themes/stock-music-app-to-att-version-t3552963
Also, please share the calendar apk as well even though it hasn't worked for you. Maybe I'll have better luck.

UPDATE 2: I couldn't get the Messaging app to work this time. Not sure if it has anything to do with updating from ZV5 to ZV6...or maybe just that I'm no longer rooted?

You're not on Sprint (lucky you). For some dumb reason, hardly any of the STOCK LG APPS work on an LG PHONE. Makes perfect sense. I understand the desire for the carrier to make the phone "theirs" or to try to go with a more "vanilla Google" experience, but if I want to install LG apps on an LG phone, that should not be more difficult than rocket surgery.
My turn to rant >>> Unfortunately Sprint has the best coverage where I live and their prices are much better than Verizon's. Next time I'll just get an unlocked device. I would love to just root the phone in order to run stock apps, as I had before, but everytime I do there seems to be a malfunction and my phone ends up bricked (not from installing incompatible ROMs or kernels, I think I just flash the phone too many times?). Not to mention Sprint (and AT&T) has conveniently decided to not make the KDZ/TOT files available to the public. Let's not even mention the ridiculous static boot screen...

I was able to get them installed but unfortunately both crash on launch. Thanks anyway. Maybe somebody else will get it to work and share their process here.
<RANT>I just don't understand why a service provider would choose to remove these apps in the first place. If not for the Google Voice integration I would have ditched Sprint years ago.</RANT>

Someone in another thread suggested it might be a missing framework. I don't know enough about mobile development to be able to say that he was on the right path or not, but it seems logical to me. It's probably something buried deep in the system that would only be accessible by having root permissions.
I do wonder about the ability to achieve this through a terminal app and changing some permissions as the SystemUI Tuner app does in order to change status bar icons without root. Wish someone would work on that, or I wish I had enough knowledge to do so myself... oh well.

Yeah neither of the apps will work on non rooted phones... You can't add the other files to system without it.... And to be honest the Android messaging app sprint includes is better then the stock lg one...

Serious question: how does the method used by SystemUI Tuner work without root, and why wouldn't this method work for non-rooted phones and stock apps? If you're not familiar, the app requires non-rooted phones to use ADB to send a shell command 'pm grant com.xxx.xxx android.permission.WRITE_SECURE_SETTINGS' and 'android.permission.DUMP'. Perhaps there is code in the app itself to trick the system into thinking it has root using these commands?? You would know better than me...
I'm waving the white flag on this, however I am curious to know how that works. I might consider another carrier in the future however. Preferrably one that doesn't cripple stock apps.

So, my reply was relevant and pertinent. And you are wrong.
Have a nice day now
