I can't stop looking at it waiting for the damn light to go green.

/edit scavenged an 8gb mini sd card from an old phone. SCORE!

those runnign Vegan 5.1.....do you have a facebook app by default? if not, are you able to add one?

I can't get one to load.

I downloaded it from GMarket and it worked just fine for me.

ugh, that swype install is too complicated/

Installed Swiftkey, but I've had several force closes.

Just got mine loaded with vegan, much better! Need to do the flash fix and market fix but cooler already.

Huh?

It was just a single apk file that you had to transfer from your pc to your gtab and then run it.

You aren't trying to do the other method that requires you to go into root and type your own commands are you?

Dolphin HD works very well for tabbed browsing.

I use Dolphin on my Evo. Tried using Skyfire for a while but nowhere near as intuitive.

I'm downloading VEGA-n right now.

have you finished rooting it yet?

movies look great on this thing.

Just got done... running vegan as well. mucking around a bit in it... still getting used to it.

I'm trying to figure out how to utilize text to speech but having no luck.

I'm trying to get rid of the quick bar on the right side of the screen.

It would be nice if there was a way to disable the side buttons. I don't know how many times I have quit an app early becuause I brushed one of the buttons.

I'd just like to get rid of the damn phone. does me no good. lol

Wonder if it could be tied to Google Voice.

yeah, I didn't see the other option...

there are apps that can do this. Go to Android Tablet and search for something like "home button light hack". I remember them discussing an app that can disable or re-map the hard keys.

*edit* here you go...

is there no GPS on this thing? Is Google Maps worthless?

haven't had a chance to mess with it...was gonna do a fantasy baseball draft on it last night but within 2 minutes I spilled beer on it so I wised up and put it away

no GPS....you connect via wifi not a 3G signal so it's kind of useless.

Unless you tether to a 3g source. Then its freaking great.

My Google Maps works when connected to wifi, on my Droid1.

Got it connected to my EVO via bluetooth. now to start transferring my music from one tot he other. w00t!!!!

cool so far so good...just like a mega fast phone

I didn't really need one but meh...not a bad luxury buy

I need to find a way to set it up to allow unit rotation during videos. The screen is easier to watch with the unit upside down.

So is there any way I can get my desktop to flip vertical when I move it that way or do the icons always have to be vertical?

I can't get my cloud drive on Amazon to play songs on my tablet...any ideas? Do I need to download something? It works just fine on my laptop.

did you download the Amazon MP3 app?

on my laptop...probably need to do that on my tablet, too...:banghead:

I'm an idiot.

thanks guru...what would I do without you??

one last thing...

my apps on my desktop won't flip vertical when I flip the tablet vertical...anyway to get those things to flip like the thing does when I'm browsing or is that just locked into horizontal no matter what?

even when i bring up all my apps on that app main page they won't flip vertical...so if I flip it vertical I have to look at them horizontal

ok guys, keep buying these non-iPad tablets.. I have a bet to win!

:D

I would like to point out that they're all busy hacking away at it loading custom firmwares to make it work better. Almost like they have to jailbreak it to get it to do what they want....

:D

Well these are my early adopters... you go guys!

For the standard consumer, in 8 months you should be able to get a comparable tablet for the same price but with a proper OS built in!

And it looks more and more like Asus may release a Win7/8 tablet that will have a keyboard dock.. basically a Win version of their Transformer tablet that just released this week. THAT could have huge Enterprise possibilities.

TBH, 30 minutes of work and done. Running like a dream. Now if I could find a GOOD music player that sorts by folder I would be set.

I haven't found a way to do that yet

found any good music organizers for this?

I meant that the GPS would be useless without the 3g signal.

Yes, Maps is totally usable if you have a wifi or tether

Anyone else having the battery issue of it never saying 100% charged? I tryed draining it to dead an d resetting the battery in CWM but it didn't help

yeah i read that on xda. there is a couple of things you can try but no sure fire fix.


I also found yet another how-to for the gtab. This one says to partition the storage and apply a new kernal for the most bug free experience. Not necessary but its nice to know its a choice.

....still waiting for the UPS guy...

I've tried several but not happy with any of them at the moment. I've got my music installed onto the sd card and can play locally but what I REALLY want is to stream from my pc.

The Archos is the same way, it's like they installed the screen upside down. I found that if you start the video player with the screen upside down, it's all good. However, once it starts the program is locked to that orientation.

That doesn't work on the gtab

finally here. giving it a full charge, then making sure it can hop on my wifi, all the buttons work and can boot up 2 or 3 times then it's warranty voiding time.

I like miren browser better than dolphin

gmote is as close as I can get to what I want from a music manager. I can stream my music and movies from home in conjunction with rockplayer lite.

The only thing I can't do yet is play off an .m3u playlist which is annoying because it will only queue everything in a single folder.

LMAO

Finally fully charged. That took forever. Just running it thru its paces then it romming time. ;)

did you install Swype? I got the APK, and installed it, but cannot get it to work. I have a keyboard losted as "NI Keyboard" under input methods but that's not it. Swypw just isn't showing despite being installed.

Got it going. Had to do type market fix twice.

Yeah, I just ran the file. Did you set your app management to run "unknown sources"?

I tried to install swype twice and never could get it to show up as an input device :(

Guess Swype just likes me or something. heh

One thing i noticed is the battery meter on mine has yet to drop below 100%. Aftr rooting, i plugged it back in to maybe avoidthe 96% peak.

They are far from perfect but atleast you can do stuff to them.

I have the same issue.

Also, I am now unable to reply on CP. I type a reply, but no text appears...

if you guys want to find free apk's just use the google and type the name of the app then apk then mediafire

easiest way I have found to find stuff

I get the 96% peak but oh well

Could you turn that Tapatalk thing off? I think that bothers Guru LMAO

Yeah, I have the same problem. Mine peaks at 90 and I usually have to unplug it and plug it back in to get up to 98. I don't get why it does that at all. the light is green.

My shit werks right 100% bitches

the EVO does the same thing. Allegedly it is a new common practice to avoid overcharging devices and cause problems.

I believe it stops charging as soon as the light turns green anyway doesn't it?

yes, however with the EVO at least if you turn it off it will continue to charge the last bit.

Not sure though, I was at 97% earlier when I looked.


Tried Caulkin's went back to VEGAN. Still can't get sites to recognize the Flash 10.2 or Skype to work.

If you guys had any problems with the touch screen not always responding, make an empty file called calibration.ini and put it on your micro sd card. Reboot your gtab and thats it. Remove the sd and enjoy.

It didnt fix it 100% but its much improved.

Don't worry about it. It's much better for the battery in the long run if you never charge it to 100%. And those last few percentages won't really make any difference in the usability time anyway.

That works quite well. Just got tapatalk. :D

Which version of tapatalk are you running?

Noob question. How do these tablets connect to the internet? Via a wireless router... or is it like a web enabled cell phone where you just pay for the service, and can use it anywhere?

1.6.17 my only issue is in threads, it doest say who another poster is quoting.
