[Q] What Exactly can you do with a SGT??

Hey whats up guys, I have a Galaxy Tab on the way from sprint.
It's my first actual official Android Device (Had a T-Mo MDA, Sprint Mogul, TP1, and TP2). I have a Touch pro 2 that I was able to put Froyo 2.2 on... But that device became too tedious and I felt it was way behind compared to most Android Devices.
So I have a couple of days between now and when I receive it.
I was doing some browsing on the capabilities but I'm 100% sure I haven't seen all of what can be done.
So I figured that everyone can chime in as to what capabilities this thing has, and other members can be informed of what their device is capable of that they didn't even know.
Rooted, and Unrooted.
I think this can help everyone being that it's all condensed in this thread.
Thanks guys

Pretty much about 90% of what you'll ever need to do.
Except make smmiches and coffee.

I was, at first, a Tablet hater. Not sure what possessed me to get the Tab, I think I wanted to see what the hype was about.
I honestly, don't use my laptop much anymore. It's become such an effort to turn it on, and browse the web, when my tab is near instant. 3G is a must. Its what's made it so useful. Its just a fantastic device. Games are amazing on the 7" screen, browsing is a delight (I use Dolphin HD) and its just so portable. It'll fit into some jean pockets and most back pockets of any trousers.
I would buy a 2nd version of a Tab instantly.

examples of this?
We all know a lot of the main features that come on a stock tab.
But I'd like to know what you guys can do on a rooted device

My experience with my Tab has been making/editing themes, editing photos for work and I've recently been designing a website for a friend.
Obviously, each aspect is limmited to what apps are available, but whatever profession you're in, there will always be an app for you.

I think this thread already contains a lot of suggestions what you can do with your SGT

[Q] Unacceptable Battery Drain on SGT 10.1

Hi Everyone,
I am currently seeing unacceptable battery drain on my Samsung Galaxy Tab 10.1.
Battery capacity falls at 1.4% per hour overnight when the device should be in deep sleep. The problem seems to have started when I updated to ICS. Using BBS and other apps, I have established that the KWL l2_hsic prevents my tab from sleeping when mobile data is off. When data is on, other KWLs, notably, multipdp, secril_fd-interface and PowerManagerService, take over.
I have been trying to sort this out for a few weeks but I'm no nearer to resolving the problem. The support from Samsung UK has been extremely disappointing (I'm being polite!).
Can anyone help?
AD

The folks over at Galaxy Tab 10.1 might be of better help.
This is tab 7" forum.

Thanks, priyana.
I can't find a forum for the original SGT 10.1 so I guess I am out of luck here.
AD

On top right corner of the website, there is a box called "type to find your device"
Type in Galaxy Tab
And before you complete, a list will appear.
Anyway

Priyana,
Thanks again.
Unfortunately, the link you kindly provided takes me to version 2 of the SGT 10.1. I have the original version and have not been able to find the forum here dealing with that version. Perhaps I overlooked it so I will have another look.
AD

It is the same forum for P7100 and P7500.
Have you really asked there?
It is even more relevant to be there than here.

Hi priyana,
Thanks again!
I was thrown by a load of spiel in a prominent position at the top of the linked page that says "The Samsung Galaxy Tab 10.1 is the successor to the first popular Android tablet, the original Galaxy Tab. The Tab 10.1 differs from its predecessor...". Very confusing. Having seen that, I concluded that only the latest version of the SGT 10.1 was included.
I appreciate your help.
AD

The predecessor being this very one.
The Galaxy Tab 7" Original.
Read it as:
The Samsung Galaxy Tab 10.1 is the successor to the first popular Android tablet, the original Galaxy Tab 7"
You don't think that your Galaxy Tab 10.1" is the first popular Android tablet, I hope?
Ours are. Hahaha

HI priyana,
OK, my mistake. Lots off egg on my face. Suitable emoticon?
Perhaps I should be heading off to bed!
I can now see why I was confused. Gee whiz. I used to have a brain.
Thanks for persevering with me.
I have now re-posted on the other forum.
Thanks again.

Can someone recommend a watch for me?

I have a Note 3. I am hoping I can get a watch that will let me browse the web (in the highest resolution possible) using my phone's Internet connection. And possibly record video and audio without being obvious (to record police brutality if I ever find myself in such a situation).
Does such a watch exist? Does the galaxy gear do this yet or is it still not possible to browse the web on it?

Both can be done with the GG with null ROM. Browsing and discrete camera with the addition if a couple of extra apps. The browsing experience is of course horrible, trying to read on such a small screen

Well that is very good to know, thanks!
Are there different models of the Galaxy Gear? I thought I saw that they had a new model or something. Should I look for any particular model?

i would suggest you waiting 4-8 weeks when Gear 2 will came out. Let's see how Tizen android and XDA fit together. I guess we will be able to flash Android on the Gear2 too. Cause of those XDA geniousses...Then watch thos in depth review videos on youtube...i don't really know what to expect from gear 2 and tizen...
But i would bet my ass that with the Note 4 a new Galaxy Gear will arrive...i really don'T know...but it could be smart to not buy gear 2 and buy the Galaxy gear cause it became cheap...i do not want to miss my gear...
oh and for that police violence videos i just opened a thread. say that you want this feature there. So devs will see people are interested not only me.

I don't think anything lets you browse the net. Smart watch screens are tiny ....

They're tiny, yes. But are they really that much smaller than the phones we were using to browse the web a few years ago?

One of the first tab s2 hands on and comparison videos. Next purchase?

www.youtube.com/watch?v=P28m9cwa47E
Above video shows the black version of the new tab s2. I have personally contacted the person who uploaded the video and according to him/her the unit comes with the same touchwiz found on the new s6 but theming has been removed. And current root methods don't seems to work duuhh
New video added about the design of the tablet
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lWhGpStnkmQ

black and shiny, they look nice on the video, a pity about the specs.
John.

They dropped the ball on this new one...but hey, at least I feel beautiful with my original tab s

Samsung must make quite a bit of profit on their phones and tablets, they make most of the costly components themselves, cpu , display, touchscreen, memory, ect
