Hi Everyone,
I have made a few different videos with the different ROMs I have flashed my GTabs with and I figured I'd post 'em here.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YK4msD2JAk4 <--GTab running TnT Lite 2.00
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=69O9eZpIo5E <--GTab running ZPad Clean 1.x (1106)
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OuMaMc0SUPY <-- GTab running CyanogenMod 6.1 Beta 2
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=b7cCRv68qeA <-- GTab running CyanogenMod 6.1 Beta 2 (first video I made for GTab)
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9dXnrXJDpc0 <-- GTab being flashed with TnT Lite 2.00
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pMJpkQ2flss <-- GTab running TnT Lite 2.00 Youtube and IMDB apps running (and more!).
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xbcfA9u9O5w <-- GTab Scores 2480 on Quadrant (TnT Lite 2.03)
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SiS0T1PNosQ <-- GTab TnT Lite 2.00 to 2.04 with Clockworkmod (NEW)
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=40AQ8Gjs-7o <-- GTab running TnT Lite 2.1.0 full features review. (NEW)
I hope these are helpful to someone. I will edit this when/if I post more videos.
I would like to hear your input on each rom and which one you are using. Thanks.
I'm famous! And yes, you said the name right - the first "E" is silent, just like in my real name. I watched the TnT video and the flight story was very telling - Apple really treats people like idiots. Shameful.
Btw, getting AB to work was one of the worst things I've ever done. I hate this game.
Updated with new video: Flashing the GTab with TnT Lite 2.00.
New video showing that Youtube works GREAT on my Gtab.
Your videos are very helpful. Hopefully people searching for g tablet video reviews see your videos and show them that this tablet is so much better than it is out of the box.

Just want to say MUCHO MUCHO THANKS!!! I had my heart set on the Archos 101 until I couldn't find one available for purchase for the love of me and randomly stumbled across your videos about the GTab. I wanted to slap myself when I thought how silly it would have been to get the Archos when for $80 more I could get hardware that puts the Archos to shame.
Your videos were solely responsible for convincing me to get the GTab so I ran to Sears and picked one up immediately. I haven't been this happy w/ a purchase since my Nexus One. THANK YOU THANK YOU THANK YOU!!!
And for the record, I've tried CM6.1 and TNTLite. Once some of the bugs are worked out of CM I think that will be my everyday ROM, but for now TNTLite is rock solid and performance still leaves me in awe

Thanks for all the videos since I requested that first one showing CM6.1 running on the GTablet. I don't know if you guys are the same why I am, but seeing YouTube videos of things running really helps me decide if I want to buy a product or apply a mod. Keep up the good work!
Is there any guide to backup all firmware using nvflash?
I have TnTLite 2.02 and everything works as expected. I want to have a backup of current image before I try more things. I'm running Windows 7 64bit and already installed Android SDK and Nvidia SDK. Thanks.
Between you and Vaelek I am seriously looking at this gTab. Wow and this is ViewSonic, I am hooked. I may have to give myself a Christmas gift.

This convinced me, my G-TAB is sitting right beside me getting ready to be tweaked (Now my DINC has a friend ). Just awesome, thanks for the guides.
I'm glad I could help.
I really feel that the HW is great; the software is now finally awesome thanks to Roebeet, Rothnic, and the others. Now if only Viewsonic had some sense and used one of these images as an OTA update.
+1 thanks for the vids...
I am impatiently awaiting mine. Should arrive at work tomorrow or Thurs.
I had an iPad and your videos helped convince me to take the leap to Android.
im ready to buy a g tablet tomorrow but please someone play any video at
http://www.digitalrev.com/en/digitalrev-tv
and tell me if it plays smoothly and also please go to this website and tell me if this website scrolls smoothly.

thank you!
These are awesome videos. I have iPad, and it has it's place, but I am in android bandwagon. I have root access to both me and my wife's phone.
Just got it, but still trying to get one for 279 if I can, so I have not opened the box yet.

I will try these for you.
Also, I added a few new video links, including TnT Lite 2.1.0.
Short video of my gtab with navigation

watched this video yesterday while searching g tablet videos well done. cant wait to hopefully get mine for christmas. other wise will get it for myself after the holiday.
I am considering purchasing the Tab 2 10.1 and have been reading reviews but haven't come across anything regarding streaming media from the network sites like ABC and CBS. Can anyone tell me how well the Galaxy handles this? I'm also wondering how well the Netflix app runs. Thanks!
Anything you can do on previous Android devices you will be able to do on this tablet. So I would assume that you can.
Well I have a Transformer Prime currently but it constantly reboots when streaming so that's why I'm curious about the Galaxy. Prior to the Prime I had an iPad.
No problems streaming here
I have been able to stream movies from HBO.com, amazon instant videos, and other various websites with no problems... I think as long as you have adobe flash installed it should be fine. I love my new galaxy tab 2 10.1, I was thinking about getting an iPad but am a huge Android OS fan and the new ICS is amazing in tablet form... Its definitely a worth while purchase... I primarily use mine to watch movies and TV either through streaming or downloaded movies and I have no complaints...
Well the netflix app runs flawlessly. It's one of the most used apps on my tab. I haven't streamed through any other apps all though i have installed Hulu and it appears to work as well.
Hulu Plus works great, as does Crackle.

Streaming is the big reason I have ordered Gtab 2 p5113--should be arriving tomorrow. I love my amazon prime videos and can't use it on the "other" device which makes me cranky. Very excited!!
yes, for sure!
And for iptv streams i'm using ITPV application from market
Amazon Prime streams like a champ! Yeah!!
Hi there
I'm looking to buy one of these and assumed that as there's an XBMC apk is available, I'd be able to install it onto the tab. I think I'm wrong
I'm a noob at android, I admit it. I installed XBMC on the family iPad before and I'm usually good at learning quickly but android is very different and over the last few days I've really tried to learn everything possible and just need some answers.
Apparently these tabs are not 'neon' (whatever that means?) but the Tab 2 7.0's are so I downloaded this in preparation of buying the 10.1. Is this right?
http://xbmc-android....c29df60974d.apk
Will I be able to use XBMC on the tab? Are these tabs powerful enough to stream large videos online?
Any help will be so much appreciated, I can't explain! Thank you so much

I tried it on my SGT2 7 3113 ages ago , was very buggy but I'm sure its a lot better now. Not really sure if your tab is supported or not ? The link above is for the XDA thread , Im sure the devs will give you a definitive answer and all the advice you could ever need. :good:
EDIT :
Samsung Galaxy Tab 10.1 (GT-P7500) ? : http://wiki.xbmc.org/index.php?title=Android_hardware
Xbmc does not yet support hardware decoding under android, so a large majority of videos will not playback well.

Thank you both for your replies. Much appreciated.
Sean, I check that thread and posted in there. I got some indication from them too. Apparently these *are* in fact 'Neon', but I can try both non and neon to test them.
The model I was going to get is GT-P5110.
Thank you for your time to reply to someone who hardly has a clue. I'm learning Appreciate it.
You will be greatly disappointed for the performance.
It hiccups like no tomorrow even with VGA (SD) TV while I have no problem playing it on Galaxy Tab Plus and S3.
I think GTab 2 has problem with stock kernel (got no more than 3000 on Quadrant and 2D is terrible). Playing Angry Birds has hiccup too.
Anyone here using Netflix on note 10.1 ?
I find the video quality really poor and was looking to find if enabling netflix HD is possible
There are some moded netflix apps but all are pretty old versions.
Any suggestions ?
Are you confident your connection has the bandwidth for HD?
I'm using Version 2.3.0 on my Note 10.1, and it seems to always show in HD, when applicable. I don't see any settings to affect this. In fact, I don't see any settings at all in the app.
yup. I am using wifi and on a pretty good internet cable.
It's gotta be something on your end; after the first few seconds of lousy video (which is intentionally done by NF to determine your potential bandwidth), it's crystal-clear here.
Don't know where the best place is to ask this so I'll start here.
Roughly 6 months ago after an update to the YouTube app and ever since after a few more updates of the YouTube app videos on YouTube are now quite pixelated on my SGS2.
I'm currently running version 5.3
28.
My brother in-law is running the same app version on his S3 and its fine.
Anyone know how to fix this?
Maybe try the this.

It's not really a fix or anything, more of an upgrade.
Enjoy
