I've got a Tab 2 and am growing tired of the lag even using the basic function such as web browsing (running stock or rooted/CM10.1). I don't want to completely jump from the Samsung ship (I have an iPad 2 already) and wanted to know how the Tab 2 stacked up against the much higher spec'd Note 10.1 but can't find any direct comparisons on here or online.
My question is whether the the Note 10.1 is WAY better/faster/smoother/more lag free than the Tab 2. From the spec's I know it should be but I'm interested in real world first hand experience of anyone who's got or used both.
My dad has the Tab 2 and I have the note 10.1. Huge difference when I used his Tab. Lagged all over the place. My note is significantly smoother and works wonderfully.
Any particular task you're intersted in? I've got very little complaints with it. Let me remind you though that after I disabled a bunch of apps on my dad's tab and freed up more RAM, it was significantly smoother. It really comes down to how much ram it had to run apps. Have you tried different roms? Also try disabling as many apps that you dont use or install a rom that has bloatware removed. Go into application manager and disable everything and anything you can that you dont use. Like widgets and samsung app store.

Yeah, wanted to know if you've seen any lag at all using the Note? Things like pinch-zooming on the web, flicking between apps etc?
Nope. No lag with web or flicking between apps.

Note 10.1 doesn't have any lag. Just perfect
Alright so I recently sold my iPod Touch 5g in search of a new media player that can also run on Wi-Fi and has a bigger screen. I also was tired of iOS so Android was my next option.
I bought the Samsung Galaxy Player 5.0 which looked like a bargain at first but lags like hell and has terrible pixel density. The icons look disgusting...
Could someone recommend me a phone that could be used without a contract, as just a media player? The Galaxy Nexus, Nexus S, & Nexus 4 are some of my choices but I'd like more opinions. I want a sleek looking device. Which would you recommend?
A million thanks to anyone who helps me out.
Hey!
I'm new and feeling kinda lost with all this Android stuff so I am still learning so bear with me, and I apologize if i've posted this on the wrong section of the forum.
I just got my frist Android phone and I love it so far, but the UI is so ugly it hurts my eyes, a blue and green theme
on a golden s5 is disgusting, I thought Android phones were praised for their customization capabilities, and I can't even change the system UI colour scheme? I had no problem doing that on my jailbroken Iphone.
I've been searching around and still can't find anything useful, I tried Android Theme Engine and WANAM, and still was not enough to get rid of the colours,
Am I doing something wrong? why does it seem so complicated?
How do I change the colours?
Samsung Galaxy S5 (rooted)
Rom : Xtrestolite
Android : 4.4.2
This is not a development thread for this Great Tab... this is merely a Q&A for everyone that wants to be involved and share their experience with the Tablet. I personally concider this tab one of the best on the market at its price point and beyond. The reason I've decided to open this thread is the fact that not much info floating around for this device so everything I've done from rooting it, installing custom recovery, installing xposed framework (which took me few attempts to find the right files), partial port of the Theme Store (couldn't find one so used Theme Store apk from my S6Edge+) and tweaking build.prop file to get the best result possible wasn't exhausting but not as fast as to find any of the mentioned for other Samsung devices. So welcome to the Samsung Galaxy Tab S2 T715 on MM world!!!
In no way I'm a developer but consider myself an advanced user and maybe even a Themer (beginner). At first I thought of making my first TouchWiz Custom ROM for this tab based on the latest MM update but to be honest I don't have time for it but I can definitely improve your User Experience by suggesting few things since there is no custom roms for our Tab (for those that prefer TouchWiz and not CyanogenMod). I guarantee that even odexed it can be customized, tweaked and purely made great.
Talk about Screen on time, Stanby time, Xposed, Recovery, Root, Your opinion, Your thoughts, Your ideas.
Welcome!!!

There is no full Theme Store port but you can have Icons, Wallpaper, Folder image and it's bg applied.

Too bad there is no real TouchWiz development for this great Tab. if anyone hears anything, plz let me know. but at this point I'm completely satisfied with the tweaks I applied. Stanby is great, SOT is great, customized it and enjoying it very much... fast, fluid, stable!

so can you point me to a great TW MM rom for tab s2 T715 ?! following the link I don't see any. 2 roms, one abandoned, the other don't seem stable. I'm running odexed, rooted, busy box, xposed, theme store partially ported, with build.prop edited. did it all without the link you provided, just from the info gathered over the years. no issues whatsoever, great battery, fast, smooth, but thanx for the info. (and thanx for your input in development for this tab).
