How can I change the location to check for updates? Right now when i do it asks which country I am in and list countries like United Kingdom, Germany and others,,,,how do i change that? Is my tab the 10v.1???? or the 10.1? I bought it off of ebay and have no idea
does your device have androids on the back? If yes, then you have a 10.1, otherwise it's a 10.1v.
yes it does have the little android, thank you!

Only one?
The 10.1 currently on eBay has a white back plate and it's covered with androids.
If you have black back plate with a round Samsung logo, then you have a 10.1v
Oh no those little suckers are all over the back cover question when i plug in my xoom via the usb the drive of the xoom pops up to transfer files when i plug in this galaxy tab i get nothing but i can adb push files is that right?

Sorry, i probably can't help you with that. Only thing that comes to mind, do you have USB Debugging on? I think i did read somewhere that if you have USB Debugging on then there are problems with accessing GT10.1 as a disk drive.

Seen a post by bwcorvus in a Xoom rooting thread saying that he was charging his phone with his rooted Xoom, having the thunderbolt I was intrigued and wanted to test on my non-rooted Xoom. Not seeing this anyplace else I thought I would spread the word.
I bought a USB 2.0 female to Micro b Male Adapter from ebay for $2.99 and received it today; it worked like a charm!
If your like me and you have the thunderbolt and carry your Xoom around with you too, you now do not have to be too worried about using it because it may die.
Hope this is helpful.
Haha!!! I did the same with my iPhone I noticed that when I tried to access my music from the iPhone on the Xoom but all it did was charge the iPhone instead. Can be very useful I suppose!
That's awesome. I just need to find a mini usb to mini usb cable then. If they even make them.
Thats pretty sweet
You want micro to micro not mini... mini won't fit.

LOL whats so "ah ha" about this? USB has voltage at its port. phones that charge via usb can take advantage of this.
its how i can use a comcastic moto dvr's usb port to plug up a hub and charge the PS3 peripherals.
A liitle off topic
Anyone trying charging the xoom with the micro usb port yet? Even though Motorola already said no.

this is phenomenal.....i use my phone to tether to my xoom a lot, and this is amazing news.
ohh an adapter. I see... will buy it then.
Thought you found a micro-usb to micro-usb cable.
Should I wait for the Galaxy Tab 10.1 which comes out June 8th. Or should I get the acer a500?
I'm not a Samsung fan but their new tab looks promising. I love the A500 but the Samsung will likely be an easier nut to crack if you want custom roms and kernels.

Depends what you needs are. The Acer is a nice tablet, but if you can do with out the full USB host and don't mind paying a little more, the tab 10.1 looks like the better choice.

Not really. Running stock they're pretty much the same. Samsung is a now an update partner with Google so updates may come quickly.

I wouldn't read to much in to that, everyone knows Samsung has been the worst with pushing updates, not to say that can't change.
But yes HC is all the same, so the overall feel will be the same, but the Samsung is much lighter and features IPS I think.
With that said, I returned my Acer only because of the lack of customization for the time being. If this changes I'd buy it again. Until than I'm hoping a rooted nook color will suit my needs.

Sent from my A500 using XDA Premium App
I'm in the same boat as you. On one hand, I really do love the Samsung's form factor. At the same time, it doesn't have HDMI out, USB, or microSD. However, Samsung is supposed to be a part of that new policy Google announced today which would guarantee updates for 18 months, plus it will be easier for the devs here to crack. I don't know how good Acer will be with updates.
Ugh, I don't know what to do either. I was GOING to buy the Acer today, but saw the Samsung and decided to wait....AHHHHHH
I would wait for the 3.1 update with better USB support. When it lands I think a lot of people are going to regret not buying a device with usb functionality like the a500.

You're gonna want that HDMI... its mirroring on your TV. Lots of ways to use that besides watching movies...
I have debated all this myself. Always new devices on the horizon. I really like the Acer and am keeping it. I just got the case from staples and love it. USB is huge for me.
Is DLNA the same or at least as good as HDMI out?
sigh.
the 10.1v is confirmed to not have a microsd slot, however the 10.1 more than likely will.
it has a micro sd card. You are looking at the 10.1v

There's no harm in waiting. If you can wait, wait. When the Samsung comes you'll be able to make a choice based on what's actually there vs. rumor and speculation.

Just picked up the OEM Samsung Galaxy Tab 10.1 Docking Station with 3.5mm audio out and USB charging slot for $4.95 at HHGreg. The salesman indicated they are being discontinued. Seemed like a killer deal so wanted to pass it on.

It's pretty nice. I love the keys. You can do everything on the tab via keys without touching the screen. I have it connected to a usb port on my monitor and it charges the tab pretty fast. HH was selling it for $80 before the clearance.

Yes it has, but no cable inside (at least mine).
got mine and will be picking it up today. To bad keyboard is gone, I'd like to have had one just to try.
I'm gonna go pick up my dock today, but also noticed the keyboard is on clearance, so I may pick that up as well, even though I have the Logitech keyboard. I'd probably get the microSD adapter too, but I don't think I'd ever use it.
Just walked into my local HH Gregg to pick up the desktop dock I ordered online for $4.95... They had the desktop dock marked down to $0.95 and the keyboard dock for $9.95.
Score!
I checked the website for it. Their search algorithm is pretty abysmal, for what it's worth.
Here is is:

You can root your nexus, and download this app called stick mount. You will need to buy a otg cable which costs about $3 USD shipping included. Then you can mount any USB stick.

Be advised though, Nexus Media Importer is import only. You can't move files from the Nexus to the USB stick with it.
