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.

hello people...im currently using a galaxy mini...im going to start working in a month and i am about to get a brand new galaxy note come june end...do you guys think its worth it?i mean i have read about it EXTENSIVELY, watched many videos, but have never really come face to face with it...
my usage will be for calling, texting, emails , news , games, presentations and other basic stuff like that...im going for the note coz i LOVE BIG SCREENS...im almost six feet tall and have really big hands...
and oh yeah i really dont mind how weird i might look talking over the note
so with all this in mind can i buy it?
It is an amazing phone, I've had it for 2 weeks, different roms have different battery lives, but the stock one is still very good by default.
So, go for it and come tell us about it!

Before I got my Note I was juggling between the Note and a S2 but went for the Note and I'm so happy that I chose the Note over the S2.
Go for Note. Or if you think screen is a bit big then S3 is to be released soon. That would be my next choice.

I already opened a thread like this for the "little brother", GS2 .... and now I decided to open it even for owners of the Galaxy S3 because I am next to buy it!
Here we are just playing and joking!!!:laugh:
So, if you do not want to laugh, joke and get four "healthy laughter", not to comment, criticize or offend, just stay away from this thread!!
The intent is to propose the multi-annal challenge between Samsung phones', GS3 in this case, and iPhone. There is no comparison based on technical, aesthetic or economic, the idea is not to affect neither the choice of purchase, just plain fun!
Please remember not to offend anyone and joke politely!
Then, everyone can express the cause or the reason why the Galaxy S3 is better than "apple-phone", preferably in this form:
-(My) Galaxy S3 is better than iPhone because....
or
-It's better to buy a Galaxy S3 and not iPhone because....
So, let's start! Here's my reason:
"Galaxy S3 is better than iPhone because worms do not come out of the Apple on the back cover"
Now it is up to you if you like....good laughs!
Ah....try to be as demented as possible!

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 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.
