just to get spell check - Galaxy Tab 2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

hey!!
I got my tab 2 10.1 to use it for work on the go, and I chose a ICS device because it supposed to have a spell check included (the fancy one that underline the wrong words in RED), but I realized that for some reason Samsung took out this feature, so, I will have to root the tablet, any advice for someone that is pretty happy with the stock ROM (without checking others really) but just want to add the speck check feature?
cheers!!

Questions should be asked in Q&A forums, not development forums.
Thread moved.

Nobody? ?

Hey
Really nobody know this??

try settings language and input
Click on the right hand side of Samsung keypad to go into the settings. In there is an option for predictive text.

I have the same problem!
Know this thread is a little old, but my Galaxy Tab 10.1 just updated to ICS and I have run into the same issue. Did you ever find any solutions?

Changing to an AOSP-based ROM, e. g. CM9, should solve your problems.

P5001 Stock Rom ICS....Google now

Just wondering if Google now can be added to the stock ICS rom on the Galaxy Tablet 2. Of course the tablet is rooted, but just wondering which package if any I should use.
Thanks
On cm9 there was a way to put it on cm9, otherwise unless if you go to jellybean im pretty sure there is no other way sorry.

I know this thread is old but I ran into the same problem - after some researching I discovered that the p5001 is actually a "cloned" Coolpad 7295C, if you pop the back cover open and look at the lower left corner you should see faint coolpad model number "7295C" - search aliexpress, ebay or something similar and you'll find lots of cheap parts. good luck !

[Q] Samsung Galaxy Tab 2 10.1 + Stylus issues

Hi all.
I've reading and researching about using Tab 2 and a stylus, in every page or blog I found ppl keep saying "Install Touchscreen Tune". Unfortunatelly, touchscreen tune is not compatible with Tab 2 version.
Does anyone know how to get rid of this problem? Some console code, some parameter to change, anything?
I would really appreciate if you can help me finding a solution...
Thanks in advance,
Herman
Not sure what could be done. I had one and disliked it. Bought a $30 decent model too (and returned it) Even with the touch sensitivity on 10 it sucked.

i heard from vitalyj, the guy behind touchscreen tune, that samsung used the SYNAPTICS S7301 chip (which is incompatible with his app as of now) for the tab 2. The guys from cyanogen mod project wrote a driver for the chip at least for a s2 fork or something, i saw the code on github but i do not have enough posts here to post the direct link unfortunately
Its CyanogenMod / android_kernel_samsung_smdk4412 project, "synaptics: Add S7301 touchscreen driver " commit.
Could this help for a development of a similar app for the tab 2? Could one compile the kernel and post the console commands for the settings or is it too hard to do fast or a t all?
PS: Hello XDAforums!
Increasing the sensitivity won;t improve the resolution of the touch screen. If you are thinking you will get results like the Samsung note with S-pen, think again. These screens are made to work with fingers.

+1 Just setting min-movement from 10-20px to 0px or so, would help a lot. Now I'm just unable to "draw" small things because it requires a "big" movement to start painting. Of course, not that I bought the Tab 2 instead of the Note 10.1 to draw... but sometimes I'd like more precision.
Tried all apps, but it's the same. I hope someone gets around it. The Synaptics driver post looks promising maybe.
I have a tab2 and the best thing I have found is to use a fine point stylus. I then just use the erase to clean up. Unfortunately these tablets just aren't going to give a fine detail sketch. I have seen my friend knock out some good drawings by zooming in then out and erasing to clean up, l've had no luck.
same request

I have been going through the comments and giving "Helpful"ratings to compatibility requests on the Touchscreen App in Google Play, to hopefully bring Tab 2 development to the foreground. From what you mentioned above, it might be awhile before we see any solid development.

Any news on this?
I have his email address so can shoot him a message if someone can link me the right files.
I'm using the same cheapo stylus with my tab 2 7.0 that I bought for my S3. It works wonderfully on my S3 but horribly with the Tab 2. I can't Swype at all, it keeps losing contact. I need a solution. I have to press really hard with the stylus to select as well. I am honestly thinking of returning it.

Well said, also true.
I believe that if the above two parameters could be tweaked it would solve 99% of the touchscreen sensitivity issues with the 2nd generation G-Tabs, and would probably allow use of a stylus with good performance, instead of dismal performance.
GUTTED
This is just ridiculous! It's bad enough that you can't adjust the screen sensitivity but I just can't believe there some sort of hack to make stylus use acceptable!
Up to now I have been really happy with my Tab 2 but its inability to be used with a stylus has just destroyed the main reason I got it - for annotating PDFs with drawings & handwriting.
Extremely disappointed, I still can't believe it! Such a basic feature!
No-one has any thoughts?
I'm going to sell me Tab 2 and get something else. What do you recommend?

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
Andychat..
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.
Cheers

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.

sounds good
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 just glad it has a working CWM Recovery & is easy to root

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.

[Q] question about galaxy GT-5282

I have a new galaxy gt-5282, and there is a feature I want to remove. Whenever I dial a nr., an icon of the normal shape of a lock is shown, and I have to tap it twice so I can talk. Nothing in the call settings is mentioned about this. How can I remove this lock ? like a normal S2,S3 or S4 ?

I think its because your phone doesn't have a proximity sensor, maybe that's why Samsung added this feature.. because my old Samsung Corby had a similar (but far less annoying) feature like this...
So I don't think Samsung made an "Off" switch for this.. and the only way to remove it might be via framework or SystemUI editing.. look for a custom ROM for your phone with this feature disabled... and I'm sorry for not being able to provide you with the correct solution mate

Thank you Sami for your efforts. My original phone is S4, I just bought the GT-5282 yesterday, as it has 2 sim cards and I need that in my traveling. I opened it just today.
I have also 4.1.2 on this small phone, but you may be right, I do not see any thing beside the loud speaker at all, so it does not have a proximity sensor, but I do not see how this lock will help in such a case.
Custom ROM may be the solution, but I could not find here, or on Android forums anything about this GT-5282, they are not mentioning it at all.

Yeah, this is the problem with many mid-range or low-range phones.. There aren't many people who use this phone.. and most of them are probably average users and not Android geeks or developers...
Anyways, Proximity sensors are important for a smartphone or any touch-screen phone.. Its important because it detects how close the screen of the phone is to your body. This allows the phone to sense when you have brought the phone up to your ear. At that point, the display turns off in order to save battery. It also stops detecting "touches" to avoid unwanted input, until you take the phone away from your ear... Nowadays most phones have it and since this phone doesn't maybe that's why Samsung added that feature instead..
And yeah, you don't have to type "thank you" to thank me.. just clicking on that "thanks" button is enough

S6 sort apps alphabetical

Hi all, anybody has an solution for sorting apps alphabetical. I have a S6 international and have no option to do that. [emoji17]
Thanx
Hi, I don't own a Galaxy S6, but I do have some info to share. While online reviews show the Galaxy S6 app drawer having an A-Z in the top right corner, I saw no such feature on the S6 I got to play with at my local Samsung store, which is probably on pre-release software. So maybe a software update will fix it.
No such button in the top right corner. I'm on Lolipop 5.0.2 which is the most recent. I think it's a shame that this is not possible.
I think only the T-Mobile version has it.
Manually sort them for now until Samsung decide to push a fix. Or you could use a different launcher.
[emoji17]
this is sucks. i saw it in the shop too, wonder how, why.
I don't have the international version, I'm on Sprint. But I have an option in the top right hand corner when opening the app tray. It says A-Z and sorts it for me. Hopefully a fix comes out for the international version soon, for you.
Yeah hope so
Hope Samsung Sorts this out, my apps folder is a mess right now with 11 screens with some apps here, and some apps there, and im not going to spend an hour to sort it out manualy.
My AT&T Galaxy S6 has the option to sort apps in the top right hand corner.
The problem is that one has to hit the "sort alph.." every time to make it sort correctly!
They sure missed some basic stuff in this version of TW.

you'd have to add extra lines to the others.html file in csc folder and i think it's the only workaround for now. your phone needs to be rooted with the latest supersu from chainfire. i did it and it works.
