Yes you read that right.
The EMEA version of the tab 10.1 will be launched with TouchWiz on board. All the tabs on demo at the Samsung stand at a local mall in Dubai have touchwiz on it - be it 10.1 or 8.9 - I was also told that TouchWiz UX is final/almost final and the update will go live around July for North American users.
While the EMEA versions will launch around mid July - What I don't know is whether TouchWiz really is an optional update or not? I wouldn't mind picking up a local piece but I'd have to root flash the NA version of the ROM ( Which I don't mind, but the future is what puts me in doubt)
There were two different versions (firmware) versions of the Tab on display - the main area had a test build of touchwiz which was as everyone knows is VERY Laggy.
While what appeared to be a RC/Close to Final - lagged very little, and it did have a fluid (not vanilla fluid) experience, one of the Samsung guys told me that they had a Tab that ran the final version of touchwiz and it didn't lag, although he refused to show that to me saying he doesn't have the tab on him.
I'm really not sure what is happening. Also this region is surely getting all tabs without the SD card.
Also the 8.9/10.1 display units seemed to show the oil slick problem.
Cheers
Jackie
Where can I go see them ?
Hey Jackie - saw your mention of the 2 new Tabs on display in Dubai - could you tell me where? I have been itching to get my hands on them to see how they compare to the Asus TF...
BTW, you also mentioned about the lag and "oil-slick" problem - could you pass me links on these issues on the net please?
Thanks in advance
Hey, the Galaxy S II and both tabs are on display at the MoE Galleria area.
Oil slick problem is around here in the forum - as for the lag ( I tried both the vanilla 10.1 smooth as hell, but touch wiz made it laggy)
Jackie, do you know if that would be wifi only first or 3G? or both?
For European, I saw a lot of 3G being the first model release.
Both the 3G and WIFI will launch together in mid July for the 10.1 and 8.9 will soon follow !!
one of the Samsung guys told me that they had a Tab that ran the final version of touchwiz and it didn't lag

Hey all,
I am considering purchasing the Samsung P6800 Galaxy Tab 7.7 Plus Android 3.2 WCDMA Tablet Phone w/7.7" Capacitive - Grey (16GB) to use as my primary cell device. I would be getting the European model, so whether or not I could use it for calls is not an issue. However, I am a bit concerned that carrying around such a bulky device and a bluetooth headset to boot would be a bit much. So the question is: Should I use it for calls? Has anyone tried this before? Does anyone who uses one of these on a regular basis have anything to say about its bulk?
Thanks!

Please post your questions in the right forum, you'll get the response you need. This forum is the Galaxy Tab 10.1, has nothing to do with the 7.
it can be as a phone, but it may be a little big. Sometimes it's not convenient.
*Chokes* $655?
*Wipes eyes* I hope I'm reading that incorrectly.

The speed of this tablet is amazing, I have yet to find any lag, I seen some people complain about Samsungs touchwiz as being slow and buggy, I found that out on my Galaxy S4G, but that is not a problem as I use Go Launcher Ex, a free launcher on the Android Market, and by far IMO the best launcher there is, so do not let touch which stop you from getting this tab.
I used S note a lot on galaxy Note.
Then bought Note 2 - used S-note even more.
Then I bought Note 10.1 - and got dissapointed, the S-note app for 10.1 were older and missed some fetures.
Now I bought Note 3 - a much newer "S note" app, that converts the notes to a new format. - that note 10.1 never got an update for...
So. using Samsung proprietary app, which they (dirty bastards) do not update using Google Play, is a big fail. It makes me stuck with old version of the app, something that would not happen to any normal Android app on google Play.
Morale of this story is: do not trust apps that are not updated via google play for all devices.
Solution ?
I've tried to copy the note3.apk from note3 to my note 10.1 , but for some reason, it fails to install every time.. and I do not know why ?

I was hoping that the update that just came out would of had the new S-Note app in it.
I hope someone can convert it over for Note 10.1 2013 use..

DAMN
just bought the 10.1 yesterday BECAUSE of the s-note?!??!?!!
damnit!!!
have you tried copying over the note2.apk?
I think it's flat out ridiculous that we have to be stuck with old versions of software because the companies are too greedy and only focuses on new products and selling new hardware/software. I mean we've been on 4.1.2 since release and 4.3 is rolling out to other devices. Couldn't we at least be on 4.2.2? Come on Saumsung. I love your devices but this is craziness.

Check out Lecture Notes, works well & offers may more features than all versions of stock software. Since when do the hardware mfg's have to offer all software? They don't provide updates via Android Store because they can offer updates via firmware, so why should they have to pay Google for a service they already provide? My advise open your wallet instead of your mouth.

Well, Samsung does not need to pay google for free updates via Play, - and could resctrict it to their devices.
On the other hand, they could provice updates using Samsung apps market, which they do not....
finally you write "because they can offer updates via firmware" - and that's the main problem: they did not.
- While you are prety cocky with "My advise open your wallet instead of your mouth" - you brought one great suggestion for an app... purchased.
thanks.
Trying to understand the issue ...
I must be missing something here. My notes work fine on my Note 10.1 (2012 edition) and my Note II.
There are some minor differences, but I can still read them on both devices.
OP is fruatrated because not all Samsung devices are using the same version of note-taking software, right?

My take is the newest version on the Note 3 will convert notes from 2/10 to a newer format. And the 2/10 do not YET have the newer version of SNote to use the newer format.

Ahhh, so when you work on things with your Note 3, they are no longer compatible with your Note 2/10.1(2012) ... that's no good.
What happens when you try to open them? Would you be willing to share a screenshot of an error or ... ? Your Note II/10.1 just won't see them?

The converted notes become invisible for old s note application. (not much to screenshot)
I would share the current s-note3 app if anyone is better at finding out why it won't install on the 10. 1
s note app with Samsung Apps Store
It will probably roll out with the next OS update. Samsung committed to take the 10.1 as far as 5.0. I'm betting it will go to 4.3 before Christmas since compatibility with Gear needs 4.3 and they want you to buy a Gear for Christmas!

Guess committed was a strong word . Saw a article about it but failed to bookmark it. Now I can only find a "leaked info" article.

2 or 3 weeks
I had the same problem called the dutch samsung helpdesk he told me this problem would be fixed when 10.1 update to 4.3 in about 2 to 3 weeks.
other differences
The new SNOTE stores its files in a differnent folder on the sd card and in additon, the old snote could handle folders of notes, but the new one doesn't seem to support this.
EDIT: It does support folder but you have to tap the "recent note" and then the menu allows you to create a folder. The only way to possible share between verison I can see is to export from Note3 to pdf and then import the pdf in Note 2. Sucks..

I was also quite disappointed with S Note. I used Samsung Note 10.1 (2012)'s S Note extensively, and sync them to the Samsung account. Just bought the 2014 Note 10.1, and to my surprise, the old S Notes don't sync over.
I resorted to Syncing with Evernote, and then opening up in Evernote in the 2014 edition. When I click on the notes, it says I have to covert them to the new format. When I did, it looked like everything was mucked up. Diagrams all went out of alignment etc.
Anyone know what to do to get around this??

The best would be if somebody managed to install note3.apk from a newer device, on the 10.1
Do you still have the old one? If so export the notes to PDF. Maybe lots of work but should get them moved.

Hi All,
I am trying to look for the Tab 4, 7.0" in 16GB.... does this exist? Because if so, I am having trouble trying to find it... All I can find is either the 7.0" in 8gb.... or I can find the 8.0" in 16gb....
So if there is a Tab 4, 7.0" with 16GB storage, what is the model number for it please?? like T230... ?
Also, does the Tab 4 Tablets feature the Knox security?? And if so, is it permanent, like the newer devices... Or can it be reset with Triangle Away, like the older devices (ie: my phones, i9100 and N7000).
Any help gratefully received.
Basically mum wants to treat my dad to a Tablet, but for under/around £100. I am basically trying to find one that is very customizable and has a great community of ROMs and is safe from things like Knox. Is the Tab 4 my best option, or are there any other budget Tablets out there... with a large community of ROMs and safe for flashing...
Many thanks, Lister
Hi,
I just bought a Samsung Galaxy Tab A (2019) 10.1" LTE version.
I noticed right after that this one did not have the integrated DeX mode allowing to switch to a desktop environment which is convenient to work.
I would like to know if there is a method to enable this feature?
Hi I also got the same tablet recently and can you please let me know that is Desk Working ?
Set up and use Samsung DeX on your Galaxy phone or tablet
Samsung DeX gives you a PC-like experience on phones or tablets. Once it's plugged into a monitor or TV, it feels like you're using a computer or laptop.

No Tab A on that list.
