Hi.
I've just put my iPad 1 up for sale.
Forget the iPad 3 I'm looking at what Samsung bring out in there upcoming press conference. If I don't like what I see I may get a 10.1 instead until the Nexus tablet sees the light of day
I'm wondering if I buy new stock has the Newton Rings been eradicated?
Also, is there an ETA on ICS for the 10.1?
I'll be rooting straight away - is it easy?
Cheers.

Newton rings have not been mentioned in a while here so I'd say it has been fixed..
ICS most likely April or May would be my guess but there are ICS CM9 Kangs already in the development section that work rather well.. The only thing not really working on the CM9 Kangs is the camera..
Rooting is very easy on the Tab..
Hey mate
Theres no eta at the mo, although most predict q2 :L u can just install an ics rom, everythings works on them except the camera.
Rooting is easy, takes ten mins tops good luck...

I'm almost positive the manufacturing of the 10.1 has changed, virtually eliminating the Newton rings. Everywhere I've seen it even brought up it was with a tab purchased pre change in manufacture. Not saying the have been eradicated, but as a manufacturer flaw yes.
ETTA on ICS, good question, and there are only estimates on the official release. But, I like to think the estimates of before the end of March are accurate
Easy to root, another good question. If you take you time making sure you follow EVERY step exactly it can go smooth and flawless. If not, you're bound to hit a snag and need help, but I've found help is quick, and great here if you're polite and specific about your process followed, where you are stuck at, and most important not panicking. I've also yet to see any one who was following one of the how to guides here actually brick the tab. You'll see many posts saying I've bricked my tab, but I've yet to see anyone not get out of it easily with little help to the right direction
Having said that about bricking, I'm not saying impossible, but probably would have to try something not suggested intentionally to brick it for real. Stickied how to's are highly suggested to be used.
Good luck and keep us posted.

A new design display started appearing on 3G UK G-Tabs in October. Samsung also started using it for repairs about the same time. You can recognize the new display by holding it an angle under light. It's got a textured kind of weave underneath the glass. I had both designs and the newer one also has better contract and the colors are a bit less exagerated.
Cool excellent.
I've rooted a few phones in the past so I should be OK.
I'm wondering what is chrome beta like on ics for the tab? I have it on my nexus s and love it. I hoping the performance on a oc tab is fast. That was one of my main bugbers with the iPad - browsing us just too slow.

If you like Chrome Beta (I don't) then it works well on the Tab with either the Kang or the AOKP..
Hey thanks for the replies.
I sold my iPad! So I will get the money and sit on it for a month and see what Samsung bring to the table for the iPad 3 fight.
If I don't like what I see then 10.1 it is.
Hopefully it will be discounted when the new tablets hit the streets.
Thanks.
My galaxy tab was made in September and I have no rings

I still wonder how prevalent this symptom was. I purchased my Tab last June and have never experienced any screen anomalies.
No newton rings here
Sent from my GT-P7510 using Tapatalk
I HAD the Newton rings. Wife purchased the tab back in August and it had the "non-branded" screen which I believe is the old version with the rings problem. I sent it in for replacement and a week later, I get it back with a new screen. This one has the Samsung logo on it and seems much stronger. No newton rings to speak of so far.

I'm really curious about this as well. Can someone explain how to tell the difference between screens and when your tab was manufactured?
Do your screens have the Samsung logo on them? Mine did not have the logo and I think that is how you tell which are the good screens.

No. The original manufactured ones didn't have the logo. They had a manufacturing flaw and the ones manufactured after flaw was discovered didn't. They started manufacturing ones that had the logo, and without the flaw.

Bought the ivory cover from Samsung for the tab and looks great with it, imagine a white tab in it
Won't let go of my 10.1 tab but might check the improved Asus one later this year aswell.

Good luck with making this post on an android forum.
As far as the op, I know they do the updates like that for specific reasons, reading similar posts about status confusion before, but personally don't know the specifics of the meanings nor their reasoning, but can say it has been posted about before, at least similarly and there are real reasons they have for doing it the way they do. If I remember correctly its mostly for their own internal use and statics. Sorry not more help, but couldn't help but post after the only reply you had was what I quoted above.
I hope someone with the knowledge will post a good explanation for you soon.

Dude I'm using both samsung galaxy tab and ipad. That's what I experienced. And again, this samsung said that their products will be the first products to be updated to ICS. Such a liar. Been waiting for ISC so long. I hate samsung customer service after sale. They suck
cracked my screen on my nexus 7 which i kinda expected once i received it, I saw the build quality was pretty crappy and I didn't buy a case yet.
I wanted to just buy a replacement screen and fix it myself. I live internationally so I can't be arsed with Asus costumer support and i hear its pretty bad anyway.
anyone have a clue when and were i can get a hold of screen replacement? cant seem to locate one. i'm not in a rush, i just bought a galaxy tab 2 instead.

Very nice. Im about to drop the hammer on a P6810 now that I saw this. After my journey with the Nexus7, I miss the quality of the Tab 2 7.0 I bought for my wife. The 6810 will be a welcome addition. Besides the fact that im not a hardcore gamer anyway.
Came from a nexus 7 because I needed mobile data and I can honestly say I'm happy I did. Now knowing we'll get JB hell yes!

I wouldn't get too excited by one note on one Samsung country site, it could quite easily be a typing error of some kind.
If it's confirmed from 2 more official sources (and that doesn't include 'my friend whos second cousin works in the warehouse') then I'll start to believe it.

I 100% agree with you. I guess I should just start saving up for the 7.7 note
Sent from my GT-P6800 using xda premium
Well, its on a Samsung corporate webpage so that is obviously a plus. Besides that, how can they only push a JB update to the lesser-specced device like the Tab 2 7.0 and not the 7.7?? Really??? The 7.7 is obviously selling, probably not as much in the US as it is across the pond, but its selling nonetheless and is still a viable device!
I don't believe it, google translate has this as the translated text
"Confirm the update" meaning there is no time for it, I'll see it when I believe it
It has nothing to do with specs, the S2 and Note I which are basically the same devices are supposed to receive the update, so the 7.7 could easily run JB from samsung.

many products has confirm the update in front of it, and it did updated now.
and look at this article, there's still buzz going aroung 7.7, so samsaung won't forget it that easy, especially they will use a lot of common sw components from other similar devices, it will be configure and build and retest for them.

It's messed up.
Very sad but nothing new. Almost all major corporations engage in shifty practices such as this. However, they do not all get caught.
To give a bit of a perspective as to why I am moving from the one to the s4
I am not a HTC hater yes my last couple of phones have been Samsung but I thought of give HTC a go on my next upgrade and boy do I regret it
I don't regret it because it's HTC because in fact before my sammy days I always bought HTC I hate it because HTC sent out a brand new flagship with major issues
My first one had gone button problems and the camera when video recording was awful it had a high pitched hiss on it
My second had proximity sensor problems , the lights on home and back didn't work and worse still the screen wasn't sealed so white could be seen
The third which broke the camels back and made me change to the s4 on launch had once again home / back button problems
The one is a beautiful device but it's full of qa issues
So to Sammy I go again I'm hoping the s4 is perfect and I wish id waited for the s4

HTC is probably a year from getting sold to another company. I loved my One X, but they hosed the deployment by succumbing to AT&T locking the boot loader and then released the One X+ too soon.
They are circling the drain. Their delays on the One will probably kill them this time, that and once again locking the boot loader on the One on AT&T.
