Hi friends, I opened this thread because i'm in great doubt and i need your help. This one thread will be deleted if it needs. If this thread do not violate the rules you can ask your questions...
My question:
Which galaxy tab to buy P6200 or P6800 ???
Which is better demonstrated, price is not the problem. If you have some links to comparative tests leave them here. Tnx
p.s If I broke a rule tell me I will seek to delete this.

For that you're right, but somewhere I read that P6200 get better grades.
What about the screen, which showed better ? I may pick up p6800 because of 800 x 1280 pixels and in p6200 is 600 x 1024 pixels.
What do you think about this ? can take it for 200$ less than P6800.
The main question is whether the gains ICS ?

Friends I decided to take P6800 Galaxy tab 7.7, but still need a small help, can someone tell me this: When link is placed on the facebook page is it show like on computer ( to open a image of the link ) or show as on mobile phone ( just link is showing, no image of it ) I hope I was clear .... because on some phones it only show link when it is published( try to publish something on fb page if you have it and see whether they leave only a link without an image ). This is important to me because I advertise sites on fb and if there is no picture in the link fewer people will watch the content and this would be a big problem..... Thank you in advance
pudup said:
Well when I post through my phone with the facebook app, the picture preview comes. Are you using app or browser?

And I set from app, and from different browser and it's ok when i put it on my profile but when i pu on fb page it's show only a link :/ some times put on the page as if I am not admin ( only link ) so I thought maybe because of different android to work differently because on tablet is 3.2 .

I saw that, but to me it is not necessary because I would not use it as a phone, I would use the phone for calls, I would use the internet over the phone via portable wi-fi hotspot, or via wi-fi at home and the rear camera, I really did not need it again because the mobile is with me all the time wait to see what will be the final spec. if the price is 200-250$ would be acceptable. Just wondering build quality for that price. I read somewhere it will be a display of over 200ppi that would be great

Can anyone help the Galaxy R users get their point across to Samsung, Samsung India ? I would really like to know the truth.

Mailed to GSMArena
Here is the mail ccontent
---------------------------------
Hi GSMArena,
As you know that Samsung had launched GTi9103 Galaxy R back in Aug 2011. Now the product has been discontinued. Samsung never gave any clear answer about why the product has been discontinued. Some sources of Samsung say that it was launched with limited stocks while some say due to hardware problem.
Long back, they had also announced Galaxy R will receive ICS update and yet there is no clarification on it. On top of it they are misguiding the customers to stay patient.
Here are the reference link

Galaxy R problems buffering music on Saavn
Guys,
I noticed a problem on my phone while using the apps Saavn and Dhingana.
My phone buffers first 1-2 minutes of the song and never completes. It is not a problem with the internet bandwidth. Even with a 2mbps broadband connection, I've been facing this problem. Any advice will be appreciated.

Hi,
I have a zoostorm 3305 that I want to get an external 3g dongle working on. After googling I believe i need to root it first, but I'm new to rooting, and not sure what software/drivers i need and where to get them. I would love some help if you have any on offer.
Cheers

how good are these ?
speed in general
Speed of keyboard popping up when in chrome ?
viewing angles (I totally hate poor viewing angles)
updates
I am more than happy with the speed. Keyboard delay pop-up can sometimes be slow.(its usually when emails are being synced). I improved the touchscreen response by using an app to recalibrate it. I think its hindered by the supplied screen protector.
The only thing I can't do is mobile 3g internet. I think I need to root.
I'm. Awaiting I bit of help from the guru's on this forum.

I don't think they are bad. I don't really watch TV or movies on it. It doesn't seem any worse than my Samsung so phone.
Not sure if this helps you much. I would recommend one if you don't have the finances for the Samsung Tablets or the ipads.

I did have the Gemini JoyTab 9.7 Duo
I RMA'd it cause as soon as you tilted it slightly right the whole right side washed out
it was so bad that even flat direct ahead you could see the start of the right side polarize wash out with what must be only a few degrees off centre
fine all 3 others ways, I though mine my have been faulty till I went in to a staples and checked their display model, exact same issue.

I sent you a PM via YouTube (Sorry), couldn't post on here for some reason but sorted now.
I have never rooted Android (very new to it) and can't find anything solid about rooting Zoostorm Playtab 10" Tablet. I really don't want to brick it.
I was wondering if you may be able to help me as it sounds like you have rooted the Playtab successfully?
Do you have any links to or name of the guide / firmware you used for the root?
Has the root improved the overall performance of you Zoostorm Playtab as mine can often freeze or delay mid use with the stock firmware?
Cheers mate.

I'm new to Tablets so not sure how useful this can be because i havn't used many others but...
speed in general is quite good however it seemed to run faster when it was new and "fresh" but now having since installed more apps, it seems to temporarily freeze mid-use e.g. going through settings tabs, launching apps etc. I often get a "not responding" message and choice to wait or quit. Waiting seems to work but as this is happening more and more, it's a concern and hence why i'm looking to root.
There is sometimes a 1 or 2 sec delay with keyboard popping up (not sure in Chrome, i'm talking general use). Its not a problem for me.
Viewing angles are reasonable to me but you can see it wash out when looking from the sides but I tend to look at it straight on anyway.
To be honest you get what you pay for (currently £114-£120 on Amazon UK / eBuyer) and it's not bad at all, especially if I can figure this freeze issue.
Hope this helps.

Not sure if you sorted it but these tablets are pretty unbrickable as are most RK3066 based tablets, I've done more wipes & reflashes on this tablet than I care to remember.
You can try to flash the original ROM from here - http://downloads.zoostorm.com/drivers/android/PlayTab/
I did manage to flash a build of CyanogenMod 10 based on another RK3066 tablet on this tablet but it wasn't really what you would call stable, it had screen rotation bugs, random reboots plus Wifi wasn't working at all & as I'm not a developer I soon reverted back to stock, for the most part the tablet runs pretty well with it's stock ROM, 3G works well with the PPP Widget app etc.
It was either this one - http://www.slatedroid.com/topic/39750-romgenerickmod-jb41cwmzip-for-pipo-u1max-m11/
Or this one - http://www.slatedroid.com/topic/41777-romcyanogen-10-for-rk3066-wip/

I'm really digging mine too. Most times when opening Dolphin browser or other browsers it will hang for 5-8 secs sometimes. You guys get that? only think that pees me off really.
If we could get it a tad snappier, would be great too!
How do I get flash on this thing?
I've also got the freezing issue occasionally, not sure what causes that.
My main issue at the moment is I can't use "OpenVPN for Android". It claims it can't access /dev/tun so it doesn't work (ticking the box to fix this in CM doesn't work as it's not rooted). Does anyone know of a fix for this?

Freezing is caused by software trying to access root imho. Avoid software that needs root access.

Going to take some time getting through this manual even skimming certain parts.....but I'm too psyched not to.

Video chatting with dual camera mode will be provided for up to 3 minutes. After
3 minutes the device will turn off the rear camera for optimal performance.

Seriously? Would there be any way to get around this with rooting/3rd party development? The GS4 has a lot of processing power, and I use unlimited data plans, so I can't imagine why this is necessary to have. It was mentioned both with standard video calling and with ChatOn.
There are some things missing in their manual, like that Samsung Knox and the other Inflared funcionalities....
But there is no difference between the two manuals.

Just bought one from HK. Quality is not too bad for what you pay for. Came from a nexus s, so speed is definitely good. Not much lag. OS is almost stock with some essential mods which is cool. All china apps can be removed. Still trying out the battery.... it's okay, but could be better I believe.
Wifi is **** though. My 3 year old Nexus S wifi speed is 4 times faster if it's not next to the router.... something wrong with either radio or the engineering.... 3g is pretty darn fast.

I also noticed that the wifi if you are not very close to the router does not work well.
Do you think you can improve with modding?
If you have additional information to improve the device please tell me.
hello
How long does your battery last? I found that the kernel isn't very good and that it seems to be eating quite a bit of power.... At least that's what android and battery indicator apps are telling me.
I haven't done much modding since I'm not that pro yet. This is completely different than a nexus... I'm rooted, but I'm do scared to even install twrp or cwm. Have you done it?
Rooting the phone was a very simple task just a click of a button.
Sent from my S4 using xda premium
the battery is giving me many problems _ I also think there is some problem nell'indicattore or in the kernel.
It lasts up to 10 hours (usually using it) but the sudden falls of up to 20% which makes it difficult to predict how current direrà and then the system unstable.
I'm not an experienced user q do not know the root await instructions from someone willing to take enlighten us.
Hello
I had problems with one of my batteries. I have changed to the second battery and the battery life was actually quite good.... Was able to last 30 or so hours with sleeping of course. But I had wifi running during sleep. I believe it's quite okay as long as the battery isn't defective.
Sent from my S4 using xda premium
I have finally found out what is saying that the kernel is using a lot of the battery. Try disabling the auto brightness from settings and you'll realize that the kernel will no longer be using a high amount of battery anymore. I believe star has made the refresh rate way too high, thus the major drainage comes from the sensor always bring active changing the brightness of the screen.
This has a lot got rid of the problem of the flickering screen when using SwiftKey for typing.
In terms of wifi, it's still pretty slow unless really close to be router.

I noticed the problem too, maybe it is because there is no nvs_map.bin file in the /system/etc/wifi/
There should be written calibration of the wi-fi as well as MAC address.
Does anyone have this file on the phone somewhere. The phone should be rooted, so you can be able to search whole memory.
Because I'm new user I can't post outside link but you can search Google "NVS_Map Creation *AKA How I fixed my wifi/MAC issues"

Hi Integralac,
did : http://rootzwiki.com/topic/5650-wip-guide-nvs-map-creation-aka-how-i-fixed-my-wifimac-issues/
Just tried it out, but I am having problem even typing in the first command...
" wlan_cu -itiwlan0 -b"
the error says that wlan_cu not found... any help?
actually fix the problem for you? My phone is rooted already so I think I'll give it a try....
---------- Post added at 06:18 AM ---------- Previous post was at 05:46 AM ----------
For those of you with a battery issue with this phone (suddenly falling after ~ 40%) there is an app that will help with that. Yes, I've tried calibrating and all, but never works. After installing this app, it has seemed to fix the problem. It'll also help save a bit of juice. Give it a try:
https://play.google.com/store/apps/...sImNvbS5pamluc2hhbi5rYmF0dGVyeWRvY3Rvcl9lbiJd
The problem is that there is now such file on the phone (wlan_cu). I was downloaded several files wlan_cu from the internet and there are differences in size. You can see here: ####dl. dro pbo xu serc onte nt . c om /u/788157 /wlan_cu.zip
Just retype #### with ht tp s:// *without spaces (stupid forum rules)
But when I tried to do step one I received some errors that I'm missing some more files (libraries) and it was dead end for me.
I didn't typed in these commands in the phone directly. I started ssh server on the phone and I tries everything through PC ssh client.
Anyway, I think that I have 3 issues on the phone.
1. uncalibrated wi-fi with constantly MAC address changing upon reboot-on/off swich
2. my Bluetooth does not remember the pear devices upon reboot-on/off swich
3. wrong battery mesuring
All in all I think that ROM which is currently in my phone is bad. My data is:
Android version: 4.2.1
Baseband version: MOLY.WR8.W1248.MD.WG.MP.V7.P1, 2013/04/10 00:41
Build number: S4 20130428-12004
What is your data?
I think that this phone is generic device which use several sellers. I find out some more names:
1. Pulid F13
2. (Star S4), sku46020.
#####pan dawillforu m . c om /sh owthrea d. p hp ?20208-Star-S4- Firmware
Just retype #### with ht tp :// and add w w w *without spaces (stupid forum rules)
Maybe they will publish new one. I don't know does "Wireless Update" feature works at all in About phone section of the phone menu.
I was just downloaded that one on the forum. But when I was enter in recovery mode everything is on Chinese.
I need to ask on the forum that CarriePW guy how I can change it to English.

A better WI-FI connection,the launcher isn't freezing and works more stable and faster then in 2013.04.28-120004.

Thanks, reading the thread now... needrom seems to be down. Would you mind uploading it somewhere?
Once I download the rom, how do I go about installing it? reading up on flashing CWM or TWRP is blowing my brains out... would it be easier to use mobileuncle?
It is quite easy, you have everything (driver, Flash tool and firmware). I'll send you a link with instructions I saved from net. It is .mht file and Opera browser know to open it.
I have everything on drop box but it will be difficult because this stupid forum rules about posting outside links.
Instructions: ###/asehw9e2mqpoz5y/ROM%20STAR%20S4_MIZ%20Z4_PULID%20S4%20_%20%5BOfficial%5D%20add%20the%2007_13_2013%20on%20Needrom.mht
Driver:###/sl8mjqdnrrfyiec/MTK6589-Driver.rar
Flash tool:###/c13rpgo9807kpna/SP_Flash_Tool_v3.1308.0.125.rar
Firmware: ###/227rqt968xs7h5t/Star-S4-stoc-firmwareunroot.zip[/url]
Everywhere change ### with ht tp s: //w ww .drop box. com /s of course without spaces
I'll check it out right away thanks!
Installed with no problems, but the wifi speed is still quite slow if away from router (not fixed), but connection is better than before . . . I believe it maybe a hardware issue then.
My screen had the problem of going no backlight if in auto brightness, will try the new rom to see if it's fixed.

Besides those WiFi rapidly decreasing of speed when you're going away from the router I didn't noticed any other problems at all.
It is much more stable version.

Correct, much smoother for sure. However auto brightness is still draining battery as it was earlier. The battery reading still has a bit of problems.
Anyway thanks for your help!

Yes ... now I did finally
Galaxy S7 screen not responding to touch sometimes. The bottom portion of the display is affected. I tried 6 different S7 and all of them have the same problem, test yours like this and tap gently not hard, when you press hard you press 3mm on the screen and that is a lot ! The problem is worse when the phone is cold (20C) This is annoying because the place where its not working is the same place where the space bar is and the "." Does anyone else have that exact problem? Here is a video of the problem : https://youtu.be/OW_FQBMcuOE
IMPORTANT !
Install Phone INFO app (green adroid logo) see when the phone is manufactured, mine is 2016.02.18 ! maybe the first batch of the production have that problem! We might be on something here!!!
There are two threads already open with this situation.
I have this problem at the same location you demonstrate. The right side has this problem too. From bottom right to the top 1 cm and 2 or 3 cm up you are going to reproduce the same thing.
I get used to it but it is very annoying. Never liked Samsung because of this things. They use low quality material all around. I will never trust them.

go to samsung store
Just received H9 update and the release notes did not mention anything about LCD, touch screen or anything related to it.
But since the update, I've been trying to reproduce the problem trying to find the blind spots and for my surprise I did not find anything. The touchscreen is perfect and I can feel it is more sensitive.
Before the update I could reproduce the problem very easy! Now it is perfect.
The update here in my region (Brazil - ZTO) was about 170MB. Samsung Cloud was introduced.
Wow, mine was manufactured 2 weeks ago (2016.08.16) and I've owned it since about the 24th too, so it was 8 days old when I received it
