Hi Guys, Currently have SG1 and very happy and looking to go to SG3 however not sure on one issue. Currently i can connect the SG1 via usb and drag pc files to the phone. Is this supported on the S3 4g?
I am also a big MS office user and wondered if WP8 offers anything SG3 wont (currently use Thinkfree app). I am not overly technical so appreciate your assistance. Thank you in anticipation

Hi there! I'm new to XDA and the technology world. I own both an android and windows 7 device. Love them both. After owning an HD2 I was a little disappointed to know that some of the capabilities of the HD2 were not available on the HD7. So I want to know if there's a way to tweek some things. I have WMWifi Router on the HD2, EXCELLENT app. Want it on the HD7 and Galaxy Tab. Is there a way to save the app and transfer it? The HD7 sadly does not have an expendable memory slot. Can the app be transferred via email or something to be able to upload it into the HD7? And can the app be saved to an sd card and transferred to the Galaxy Tab?
Also, can u suggest a router equivalent to WMWifi Router for the Galaxy Tab? I don't understand T-mobile's Hotspot app and unfortunately neither do some of their own techs. So I thought id ask on this end instead of giving them 3 more hours of my time and getting nothing in return.
Would appreciate any help. All tmo did was give me the numbers to windows and samsung....smh.
Please help. Appreciate it!
Plenty

Hello guys,
I'm selling my nokia n900 now and want to take a new phone, i live in india.
im planning on taking android phone but i already have asus transformer, so i was thinking it would be same experience.
If im going for windows 7.5 phone, there is not tethering availble.
So guys give me the best idea for my new phone it should have tethering.
Thanks so much
Tethering is available on some wp7 devices, my titan has it. I'd go lumia 800.
Yeah but on lumia 800 tethering is not available. any suggestions?
I'm currently preparing to deploy tablets to our technicians for service routes and surveying purposes. I would like opinions of the community on which tablet would be the most user friendly and capable of fulfilling all of our needs.
We need to be able to email, fill out documents, and capture signatures from the tablet. For ease of administration I would like to be able to access the file structure (not sure if I can do this with an iPad or not). I will need to quickly pre-load all of the forms/documents that each technician will need for a trip prior to them leaving. I don't want to have to email everything to each tablet and then go in and move the files around so I will need either a USB-PC interface, full sized USB ports, or a card reader. I'm all for cloud services and use them regularly but I'm doubtful that the older generation is very familiar with them.
My personal experience in all things mobile has been a strong background in Android or WinMo. I've typically stayed away from Apple products, as such I'm not against using the iPad but I'm not familiar enough to know it's capabilities or limitations.
Please keep in mind that I need something the average Joe can manipulate unassisted in the field. Thanks for your thoughts!

Afaik the only tablets with a full sized USB port and a SD card are the Transformer Prime and the TF300, but they have to be attached to their keyboard docks in order to do that. As to everything else I guess that pretty much every Android tablet will fill the bill. USB OTG cables are also a valuable option as far as USB connectivity is concerned, they work with every Android device and they generally cost just a couple bucks.
I know you guys will think I am crazy but I love my 32gig Toshiba Thrive. Think about it... I have full sized USB, HDMI, Dual core, Full size SD reader. Built in WiFi. i use it every day at work. and I work in IT.
My Acer Iconia A500 has full size USB port. I also think that the A500 has a really business-like look to it. I see alot of Lenovo tablets in many business i have visited.

Thanks guys, I'm considering both of those as well as the Toshiba Excite.
FYI - If anyone is interested, the TF101 has the same port accessibility as the Prime, they both require the dock to get them though.
Edit: I haven't seen an update anywhere that the Thrive has received ICS, does yours have it? How is Toshiba in regards to firmware updates and addressing issues? Thanks!
Not the galaxy note 10.1? anyway I think transformer prime would be nice... or asus padfone... the thing there is it's a little bit more expensive if you must include tablet and keyboard
Nook color/nook tablet or kindle fire, all are VERY affordable and great tablets once you do some mods

Acer a500 and Toshiba Thrive
I would also recommend Acer A500 (I own it and very happy with it) and Toshiba Thrive also for your environment.
Well my thrive doesn't have it by stock... But its rooted. Before it was rooted it was really good with updates.

Hi all. My apologies that I didn't keep the conversion going after the thread was moved, can't believe this was three years ago already. As an update, I currently have 26 MS Surface tablets deployed, twenty are Surface RT and six are Surface 2, all have the detachable Type Keyboard 2 and a wireless USB mouse. I ended up going with these because I had one and it is rock-solid, receives Windows updates, and included free MS Office. Our guys get along well with them and with the peripherals I can carry one of these and get most routine work tasks done anywhere without requiring any customizing, rooting, or additional software. I keep my TF 101 up-to-date and love the direction Android is going in but for ease of use among multiple generations I feel we made the right choice with the Surface tablets. Keep your eyes open for the Jive Remix tablet coming down the road, I missed out on the kickstarter but it looks promising for an Android tablet that is more business oriented. Thanks

Hi all, after having learned my basics with a 7" android tablet (chinese 'versus' A10 clone), I'm now looking for a new 7" android tablet(I dropped my versus tab its now scrap.....)
I'd like some advice/opinions on choices, I'll list a few wants and dont wants:
Doesnt have to have sim/phone facility, only really need wireless connectivity.
Would like expandability with an SD card.
Decent performance and pref JB 4.1+ ROM/OS
would like usb connectivity.
Narrowed down to possibly nexus or samsung tab.
All/any thoughts welcome.
Many Thanks
Jon

I'm partial to my Samsung Galaxy Tab 2 7", but nothing against Nexus. I'm running stock JB 4.1.1 ATM. Mine is a WIFI only model ( GT-P3113 ). Inbuilt 8 GB storage with a maximum 32 GB sdcard, which I have . Dual core 1.1 ghz processor. Darn thing is pretty quick.
I live in the US, so I really cannot recommend anywhere to purchase one. Sorry.
My suggestion is the Nexus line, so the Nexus 7. The Nexus is one of the best tabs on the market, and if I had the money I would have a Nexus 7 *and* Nexus 10. They are amazing tablets, and one of the benefits of being made by Google is updates. AFAIK the Nexus 7/10 already have the 4.2.2 update *officially* which is a big plus in my book.
I also live in the US, so can't really recommend anywhere special beyond Best Buy or Amazon.

Thanks for the feedback! .Jon
We have both a Samsung Tab 2 7" and a Nexus 7 in our family. I think you'd be happy with either one. I use the Tab 2 and am very happy with it. Don't think you can go wrong either way. Tab 2 advantage is SD card, Nexus advantage is updates. For me the SD card is more important. As always depending on your use (you want to stock alot of movies or other) the Tab 2 might be the way to go
Hİ all,
Can anyone who owns Samsung Ativ S share his info about this phone, i really want it (mainly because of the big screen) but because there is no extra custom made rom or similar things im no sure about it...

Thank you in advance...
