Guys im from Philippines. Why is it there is no reader hub application in my Galaxy Tab 7.0 plus?
Sent from TAPAKING using Tapatalk
I don't know what reader hub is as I don't have it either here in the States. I use the Kindle app and Google Books for my reading. There was an ebook app that Samsung included but I deleted it as soon as I rooted my device.
Here in the States, it's "Social Hub" and "Media Hub". Perhaps you mean one of these two?
I would imagine if you don't have various pre-installed software it's because of legal or licensing issues in your home Country.
G.B.
And remember, talking dogs always lie.
I have S2 and there is Readers Hub. I can download newspaper there with payment. My problem Tab 7 plus has no readers hub.

Reader Hub was an oft touted feature of Samsung's Touchwiz suite.
Unfortunately we never really got it on it on the 10.1/8.9 nor on the 7+. Not sure on the 7.7 however.
I never minded too much as the only thing I wanted was Time magazine and Next Issue covered that for the most part.
The 7 plus has an app called Pulse......that should fit your needs.
Cheers

Is there any app for tab which makes Admin/user accounts, so kids can be safe & restricted to their user account & privileges.
I am planning to buy a tab for my kid, on my phone they mess up by opening non related apps & setting changes like enabling /disabling wifi bluetooth & many other settings.
I found an app called kids place (actually its a launcher) which restricts the kids to an extent but was looking for a better option with proper control as admin has on computer.
kids place actually restricts them from the tablet interface all together, that not what I want. Interface should be available to them but they should be restricted to certain privileges, they should not be able to change settings & use apps which are not assigned to them.
if you get an tab that has jellybean, you can create 2 accounts with terminal emulator. with other account you cant change settings, atleast the more sensitive ones. you can hide apps etc

Tab2 as of now is being shipped with ICE 4.x.x version not sure if samsung will upgrade it to jellybean.
Only google nexus 7 tab is being shipped with jellybean which is already overbooked, I would have to wait for months getting that.

That would be awesome if that is true but meanwhile I found what I was looking for the app already exist but I never came across earlier neither in play store nor at xda saw anyone discussing it.
SwitchMe is a unique application for root users that allows you to log in and out of multiple installations of Android just as you would on a desktop computer.

Hello
I am thinking of buying a note 10.1 after I feel in love with my note 2. I have an motorola xoom today and I was wondering if you guys recommend me to buy the note 10.1 and is it worth the upgrade from xoom?
Also i wonder what is the difference between the model names? GT-N8000 and 8020? I read that one of them didn't have hdmi connectivity, can someone shed a light on this?
Any known problems with the note 10.1 that you should know before buying?
Thanks

What is your main use? Games or business??
I would say casual tablet user. I may use it for studies(engineer) I play games sometimes.
I surf the Web a lot

N8000 - 3G connectivity (Calls and Mobile Internet)
N8005 - 3G (Mobile internet only)
N8010/13 - WIFI only models
N8020 LTE/4G model (Calls and Mobile Internet)
All Models use WIFI, but N8010/13 don't allow SMS and Email with sim cards, N8000 & N8020 allow phone calls..
Definitely a good tablet if you're looking toward education. The stylus is great.
Biggest advice: Get the 32gb model. 16gb is fine for a phone..but not a tablet. The OS and bloatware sucks up a good 5gb of memory. Amazon price difference when I got mine was about $50. Well worth it.
And..order a CLEAR screen protector. The Moko is great. Can't even see it if placed properly.
I got an M-Edge case that allows the tablet to rotate so you can stand it up either landscape or portrait. Pretty cool.
Don't know much about the Xoom so can't offer comparisons.

32gb is not available in Sweden, only 16gb but hey I can always buy 32gb memory card
Just thought I would make a thread comparing and compiling what people like and dislike about the latest 4.4 update for the Note 3. Personally I've found the update to be much of the same, however Samsung has made some annoying decisions too.
Likes
- Unlocking the phone is SO much faster!
- The new white icons look much better than Samsung's usual green ones.
- The new Notification shade looks more in-touch with modern Android styling.
- General speed all over.
Dislikes
- One feature of KitKat was Native Emoji support Samsung's default messaging app converts to MMS when you insert an Emoji.
- Samsung has included the most UGLY emoji's ever! These were already native on the Note 3 but I thought they would have switched to Google's.
- The fact Samsung even included a messaging app; why not just switch to Hangouts.
- The camera seems to be a bit laggier after the update, processing in dark images takes longer and is prone to blurriness.
- If you set a password or numeric code, when you unlock your phone unlike an iPhone or HTC you do not have to swipe. It goes straight to the input.
- General Samsung bloatiness and lag.
Overall I feel like KitKat has "refreshed" the Note somewhat, but I think that KitKat is not a major upgrade for the Note 3 at all, and it feels more like a .x upgrade. After using the Nexus 5, it really doesn't feel like the Note 3 is using 4.4, it feels much the same as 4.3.
Questions don't belong here. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2481255
Dislikes:
- Not using ART (Android Runtime)
Wasn't that the biggest innovation in KitKat?
- Again Samsungs country cluttering
On the new polish ROM learning hub, Music and Bookstore not working/downloadable in Germany
- AppOPS no native support
- SDcards getting useless more and more... wonder when we will not be able to move anything there - well we still can pay 100bucks per 16Gb more storage on phone

ART is still technically in beta form. Samsung will never add a beta to their final rls. If something messes up it makes them look terrible (more so than they already do..)
Sent from my SM-N9005 using XDA Premium 4 mobile app
What I Like:
Awesome speed and smooth.
Better Audio quality.
Finally no more ugly green icon at status bar.
Much better camera output quality especially at night shoot. Sharp and clear.
Love the new lockscreen especially the music playback button.
What I Dislike:
S View chipset detection, now only original Samsung will work, not working for counterfeit include those branded like Spigen.
Disable of ART, I know it is beta but at least let use tryout.
Is there a chance to get the stock-emojis (google) back?

Though I see your point, I felt this is a general discussion amongst the Note 3 community. I'm inviting people to discuss what they like and do not like about the 4.4 update, though I understand the title alienates this.

'Tis a shame, though it's most likely down to the beta.

I hope, the ones Samsung include are so ugly!
was icallstr
Like
- Better colour when using the multimedia dock
- less buggy when detecting keyboard and mouse plugged into the dock
Dislike
- Non working un-official S-View covers (forcing rip off price official ones or nothing)
- Lower gaming performance (or so the Epic Citadel benchmark shows with lower phone performance, and locked at 30fps on HDMI)
- Sort of a like in that there is now landscape support for the non Multimedia Dock screen, but a major dislike that it's still the poor chopped off bottom row implementation that 3rd parties offer, the official version should at least have a layout that fits all the icons on the screen.
- Hit and miss SD card support, I find it either works really slow when trying to access it or seemingly doesn't work at all.
I can see this firmware being followed by a stream of bug fixes as it feels very beta, I wouldn't be surprised if it was the buggy beta accidentally released.
They better not abandon sdcard support, I didn't pay extra $$$ for the Google experience!

Can there be a lawsuit for this destruction of functionality?
Issue on 4.4.2 KitKat ROM - What I dislike now!
Flashing kitkat now will make the external SD almost useless. You will not be able write in certain process, example moving/copying data via third party explorer, multiple photos select for deletion at QuickPic, backup using Titanium Backup. No issue save camera photos on it or play games store at SD card. This only can be fix if you root your phone and change platform.xml and once root it is confirm 100% trip the Knox. Solution for fixing this issue [FIX][LEAKED 4.4]External Sdcard Mount Perms fix - xda-developers
KitKat ROM is detecting S View Cover Chipset, only Genuine Samsung S View Flipcover will working now. All counterfeit or any branded casing including Spigen SlimArmor View will stop the S View function once update to KitKat ROM.
There will be no downgrading back to 4.3 roms anymore after update to 4.4 KitKat ROM.
Don't play play mess with Bootloader, already got few user phone completely DEAD (cannot on or detect by PC) once mess with Bootloader.
If SD card doesn't work anymore Google can go to whatever, now I will need to block any possibility of this getting on my phone ever. I never thought I may start thinking if Windows phone wouldn't be an option for me in the future. One Crapple is enough on the phone market.

Hi, I change the statement. It can read and write but not all write process.

You will not be able write in certain process, example moving/copying data via third party explorer, multiple photos select for deletion at QuickPic, backup using Titanium Backup.

This is all stupid peoples fault.
if it wasn't for people being so technically inept, companies wouldn't have to cater to them by degeneratively dumbing down each and every version release.
Soon android will have no functionality, just like Apple iOS
New bootloader is required for 4.4.x is [email protected]@k joke.
-I stay away from 4.4.2 for now, wait bit longer.

Google is slowly starting to become a joke. Deciding to only update the Nexus 5 to the new "Google Experience" launcher has majorly fragmented the feel of Android through & through. I'm also starting to find that Google apps used to be robust, they are now starting to show lack of innovation and also some bugs. Take Hangouts for example, it is not a nice application to use on the Note 3 at all.
Is the following questions on the Note 7 & the new Linkstick possible right now:
• root them (I know Samsung locked up the S7 series & other devices earlier this year 2 keep them “safe” but by chance did they lockup these 2 device’s I’m interested in, in the same way, so it’s hopefully easy 2 hack them)? What root app(s) is the best 4 these devices?
• how do I use VPN 2 connect 2 the web on the Note 7 when it uses a SIM card?
