[Q] noob questions - Galaxy Tab 2 General

Ok so getting my first tablet tomorrow...gone for the galaxy tab 2 10.1 inch...will i need to put any kind of security/anti virus software on it? Also can anyone recommend a good screen protector for it?
Cheers

Well I don't know about screen protectors but antivirus softwares for Android are nothing but gimmicks you don't need them if you know what you are installing!

About ROM flashing, and increase speed of the Universal

Hi Guys, I bought the Universal for quite some time now, and would like to do more advanced stuff with it. but I am kind of new to Rom flashing; I tried to find the threads to read, but there are just too much information on this web Forum(which is great thanks guys), and I can't seem to find the right Keyword to search, which Thread would you guys recommend me to read? or any main keyword I should search for ?
Thanks and have a very nice day guys.

Search the ROM threads...
Jwright's
Midget's
Helmi_c's
Pdaviet.
It's all very personal, fraid you're just gonna have to read up and find which is the best for you.
Hi,
I currently have an Blue Angel, but this will apply to you as well:
If your Universal is working fine, DON'T START FLASHING IMAGES!
The truth is that you MAY end up with a brick.
If you want to do "more advanced" things, why not look at all the Freeware applications you can use? Today, i.e., I got my fingers onto a Universal and tested it with my SD-Card which contains Dosbox and Windows 3.0.
You know what? It ROCKS!!! VGA is absolutly cool and speed is fine.
Think of all the DOS-Games you could run.
This is just one suggestion, but really: don't change a running system.
You read about it and it will seem simple. But if something goes wrong, you will regret it for sure.
Cheers,
vma

Start with the wiki - the best way to prevent yourself from bricking your Uni. You should then read the forums - the perfect way to prevent yourself suffering what others have already suffered.....

thanks for the advice vma, but the thing is, my Univeral is a bit too slow when it run what it comes with originally, so I think I will find a way to back up the ROM and give it a try...
Man I reply so late, because I was choked when drinking water, so the water was splited on to the keyboard, then like space bar and some other keys doesn't work, and to make the matter worst.... I try to dry it with a hair dryer, but I was watching TV.... and in 1 min it melted my keys ... so certain keys are now "forever stuck" so I am currently using a mini keyboard I had... will get anoter standard keyboard soon, this mini keyboard is making me very tried
I hope you are referring to a regular PC keyboard and not to the keyboard of your Universal!!!
Have you tried the Registry-hack's and the section on how to optimize your Universal for speed?

It's called BatteryStatuts. Search for that and it should answer all your questions...
When you find and install the program navigate over to the OMAP tab and set your overclock speed. However, be careful not to set it over 299 because instability on your phone is extremely likely to occur. To be safe set it to 286 or 273. I hope this helps......

thanks very much works a treat!
No Prob!

Glad I can help!!!!
...OR you could just download OMAPClock Plus, and not have any extra crap on your phone (unless you like BatteryStatus).
While I'm admittedly not a big fan of uni-taskers, in some cases (like this one) I make exceptions. This should not be misconstrued as admonishment for you to do the same, though.

Fish in Water Application for Touch Diamond

Hi,
A friend with an iphone showed me an application that got me well impressed..
The applications shows several different types of fish swimming in the water..
Taping the screen was like dipping your finger in water and shaking it..... quality sound and picture... this also made the fish scamper...
Is there a similar application for the HTC diamond? i know its totally useless but would be an awesome show-off application..
beany
That would be a very cool app.
An aquarium to "carry away" ;D
Thats already discussed under G-Sensor applications.. If someone could make something like it.. it would be cool
i remember seeing the sony xpedia demo... has a similar app...
when it launches hopefully someone can export the cab
This is what i so on the iphone:

Developers, we need you to make this??

i'ts actually an X1 home screen not just an app. The fish not only follow your touch on the screen, but also alert to notifications such as missed call's etc (if i remember correctly the fish changes colour to show missed calls / bluetooth on etc - but don't hold me to this)
Can developers actually create this for the HTC DIamond?

Of course they can! But they dont have this much time to play with useless applications guaranteed
But I still hope someone will make it :-9
This may be usefull when the diamond is in the craddle i think !
it just looks really good on the iphone....
i don't remember where from in the forum but i downloaded a very similar app.
i uploaded it for you or anybody else interested. this is not my application and i am sorry i can not remember who's, but here you have it
http://rapidshare.com/files/146610608/Flash_Ripple_Fish.zip
yeah, thats the one...
it needs improving though... but the foundations ARE there....
can a developer improve the interface, graphics, sound ETC ETC ...
can the app on the IPHONE work on the HTC?

Android has the best games
Google
When I first got my vogue I used google to search around and find programs and games. Search around on xda and maybe ppcgeeks using the search built into the sites. As for installing programs you can usually install .cab files from active sync or you can use active sync to copy over the cab file and install it manually. Eventually you'll most likely want to give android a try and possibly Windows Mobile 6.5. Read and research because there are a lot of forums and a lot of answers already out there.

android is google's operating system for smart phones. some very talented people here have ported it over to work with the htc touch (vogue).

[Q]Change HD2 Screen & LCD

Hi guys,
Unfortunately my HD2 fell and the screen cracked. So, i searched ebay found me a LCD and digitizer but im not sure how to change both of them. I googled a little bit found some tutorials but i don't really trust them so can anyone post a tutorial that worked for them previously? My HD2 is nearly not able to be used because of the shattered glass I was actually considering getting a new phone

Look here:
http://mperlitsch.hintergrundbild.com/htc_hd2.htm#Zerlegeanleitung
This Tutorial is working 100%. But you need a little experience to take apart electronic devices. ESD-Protection and of course a new Touchscreen or a complete Touch/LCD Combo ( cost more, but makes it a lot easier for u ). The Problem, this is all in German and you US-HD2 is a little Different, but i´ll make next time a Video, so everyone can see with moving pictures how easy all the steps are.
Maybe the tutorial above is better than nothing for you and don´t sell your fantastic HD2. It´s the Best Phone i ever had...
Grettings,
Michael
Thanks alot man just ordered my digitizer
Sent from my tf101 using xda premium
