Best rooted tablet? - General Questions and Answers

Anyone know of a best tablet to root and that has speed and least expensive? Less than 300. Not a big fan of roms because its always updated and have bugs. And prederably a 2.3.x or up version. Thank you.

I've got an Advent Vega and it works really well with customised Honeycomb on it (vegacomb). There's a forum on here for them and they're super cheap

Update

Honestly, I don't think that you will see an upgrade to GtabComb. Flashback is perhaps the most stable Honeycomb rom that you will find atm. It is the only one that is still being regularly updated also.
So i think that is gonna be better to spend more money for one of the latest tablets but thank you anyways

What's the opposite of "complaints"?

I am among those who felt the stock gingerbread browser was a disgrace. And I will admit that after using the 4.0.1 ICS roms I was worried that Google wouldn't/couldn't deliver smooth performance in the browser.
Well, they have absolutely succeeded, and I want to go on record saying thanks.
In conclusion, I recommend that everyone try out No Wallpaper. Also, the opposite of "complaints" is "plaudits."

Yup very smooth browser gingerbread was a rush job and IMO wasn't really innovating ice cream is great all around and bring whole new experience to our ns
Like a new phone all over again I couldn't be more happy

+1 I agree.
I'm glad I'm not the only one who thinks this.

[Q] original Xoom still worth it?

I'm looking for a tablet to play around with and I'd like 10 inch over 7 - wife has a Kindle Fire that I don't mind using but is a little too small.
I am potentially looking at a 32gb wifi Xoom for $200 through craigslist. The price is right, obviously.
Would anybody NOT recommend the Xoom for 200 bucks?
Take it, dont hesitate certainly worth 200 you wont regret it

Yes, what he said.
ooooh yes ! Mine is running the stock ICS ROM. I tried a few new ICS quadcore devices in some shops, the last one was an Acer A510, and compared to my Xoom none was as smooth as mine !!! The A510 was horribly laggy !!!
The prime was equal in fluidity compared to my Xoom but knowing the GPS / WIFI issues on it I prefer my Xoom ...
I know quadcores are better for gaming but I don't play. They are also better to display 1080p videos but these files are so big in size, and to display 1080p on a 1280 x 800 display is absolutly useless !
So I will wait for one or two more Android tablet generations before changing mine.
Don't let it go. Get it. Xoom is my favourite amongst all. Worth the price.

The Xoom is great tablet to consider.
I've got an ipad and plain vanilla xoom blows it away Imo... Now with honey comb things were closer but with ics, hands down I pick up my xoom over the ipad for almost every chore...
Now that I'm rooted and overclocked a tad its like this tablet is still at the top..
Fwiw you can get a brand new one on ebay for about 300 or so..
Sent from my Xoom using XDA
I got mine on ebay for $217. Most were still selling over $300. IF you can get one for only $200, get it before someone else beats you to it.
dont miss this - i also still prefer the xoom over any other tablet at this point - buy now
I traded my galaxy tab 10.1 for a Motorola Xoom LTE and I have never been happier. Id take that sucker if i were you for 200 dollars.
Best 1st Gen tablet. And probably still the best overall. All the hardware works as it should battery is fantastic.

I have had difference tabs and by far is still the best.

There certainly are better tablets now but the xoom is well supported by developers. Makes it a great choice for those that hack a bit.

My question is-what better tablets? Transformer Prime looks great on paper but with so many screaming about this and that not working, screen bleed, etc...it's not a prize, lol. What else is there right now, that can touch the OG Xoom in overall goodness? The Transformer Infinity Tab looks interesting, and the upcoming Google tab may be good too. But they are not available yet.
How about the Xoom family edition is it worth getting did it get upgraded to ics

NO Get the REGULAR XOOM Do NOT and I repeat NOT Get The Family Edition think of it as a Kids Version of the Xoom which is way harder to mod.

My friend had the Atrix 4G, it sucked. Crashed at least once everyday.

Well if I remember correctly, it has a 1gb of ram and CM9 support, but I'm not 100% sure. That sounds good to me

My step-son has been using the Atrix since its release and he absolutely loves it. There has never been an issue with it. I prefer the O3D personally.

Thrill all the way. Attic way to slow
Sent from my LG-P920 using xda premium
I actually own both..I loved my atrix 4g...I wanted another when I added this line but they weren't available anymore. That being said I like my thrill better mainly due yo larger screen and old eyes..both are fast thrill has 3d..atrix has an extra partition with partial desktop Linux installed that allows you to plug in HDMI to HDTV and have Linux on TV and phone is mouse pad and touch keyboard.. very cool..so I guess the answer depends on what you like to do with your phone.
Also atrix has unofficial cm9 I used to build mine from source and yes it also has 1 gb of ram..it isn't slow if you run custom roms
Sent from my LG-P920 using xda premium
Lol I mean cm9 and the Linux TV was what grabbed my attention but not only that the fact it will also get ICS screams to me that it will race right past the thrill once both are on ICS ill be trading my friend so ill still have access to the phone as I should really really like to see the final product after ICS is out and miui is available

Not to mention miui is available on atrix. My wife runs notachrix it is gingerbread but very stable so I don't have to worry about her having probs. Ics roms still have 2d driver issues and she plays those damn farm games..lol...you will Like it just pm me before you unlock the boot loader if it is not already done..it is a pain in the butt.
Sent from my LG-P920 using xda premium
Not to get off track here but what is so good about miui? I have never seen anything there that made me think anything but Iphone.
Well, I own both, so:
Atrix on stock gingerbread sucks. Also, it feels flimsier than the P920. My atrix is currently in the drawer, waiting for parts...Case scratches easily, too. On the nice part: ICS 4.0.4 rocks, but you get no fingerprint support...Phone fast as hell, especially when overclocked @1450MHz....
As for the P920:
Bulky, but sturdier than the atrix, screen looks better, despite lower resolution...Camera is better too (but IMO the flash on the atrix is better)...P920 also feels faster, be it stock or overclocked...Wireless communications also seem better.Negative side: Battery lasts shorter on my P920 than the atrix
Shortening it: if you want a developer's phone, get the atrix, if you want a nice-looking, feature-rich phone, then LG it is.

Tips or tutorials for new tablet user?

I just ordered a tf101 for my father. He is not very good with computers but was interested in a tablet, and I thought it might work for him. He will mainly be using it for email, Craigslist and the Internet.
I own a nexus 7 and an hp touchpad, so I'm familiar with rooting and roms. What is the best bet for a stable rom? Shouldn't need a lot of features, but I would prefer a jelly bean rom.
Secondly are there any good tutorials or hands on guides for someone completely new to android?
Sent from my Galaxy Nexus using xda premium
If he is really only going to use it for browsing I would suggest leaving it on the stock rom. Or put it on the Megatron rom, but still I'd only suggest stock. He isn't going to want to call asus support to find out his beloved tablet is not going to have a warranty.
Sent from my Transformer TF101 using xda premium
Well I'm pretty sure it's out of warranty, and he's not going to be calling tech support. (besides me)
Is the stock rom significantly more stable, or what are the advantages to say cm10?
Sent from my Nexus 7 using xda premium
I'm not sure about cm10 but my experiences with JB are all on the Team EOS nightly builds. To be they are the best, everything works and it keeps getting faster and faster. Rayman does build some great stuff though but his updated are not as frequent. I would say give it a play for an hour or 2 and find out what one you like best. For ICS my favorite and best performing rom was Megatron, Team EOS builds have even better performance than that.
