Need some advice about possibly getting one of these - Galaxy Tab S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Heya everyone, been browsing the forums some and tried to figure these things out, but wasn't really sure, so figured I'd ask here.
So for a couple months now I've been on the lookout for a new tablet for when I can afford one. my most recent upgrade was from a Toshiba thrive to a Asus tf700T...........bit of a big mistake cause I didn't realize it only had a gig of ram XP
came across the listing for the Galaxy tab S and from what I can tell, the wifi version would be perfect. enough ram to do decently, doesn't have to be too powerful for games, LOVE the screen (have an AMOLED on my phone and it's great). but my concern arises with being sure about what version is which. How do you tell the difference between the different model numbers? I'm looking into the 32 gig version (which i know is best buy only in the us but...necessary evil), but some threads say only the T800 version can be rooted and flashed? I have no interest in Knox, and the first thing I'm going to do with it is root, and flash a (non-CM) rom to it........had some bad experiences with puzzles and dragons before on one of their roms XP........but anyway.
So yeah. What's the difference in the model numbers, would the 32 gig wifi version fit the criteria for being easily rooted and flash-capable, and I won't bother asking about a good rom, that stuff I can look up myself ^^

Well.. T700= 8.4 inch Tab S WiFi model
T705= 8.4 inch Tab S with the 3g capabilities (aka LTE model)
T800= 10.5 inch Tab S WiFi only model
T805= 10.5 inch Tab S with 3g (aka LTE)
So basically, Models ending with a 5 is an 3g model meanwhile the rest is WiFi only.
And.. Good luck finding 32gb models! They have the same model numbers and ROMs work fine on them regardless of the ROM is 16 or 32gb. 32gb are really hard to find as I haven't seen much people have them! When buying, be extra sure it saids 32gb of storage since the model numbers are the same for the variants. Anyway for ROMs and such, I prefer liquid smooth (seems a perfect combo for me).
To sum it all up, T800 Tab S with 32gb may take some time finding as I don't see many with it. Also, No matter how much storage, they share the same model number for the variant. Also, flashing rooting etc etc works fine on 32gb models from what I heard. I would suggest backing up your .pit in case of anything. And don't let the 3gb of ram thing fool you! Touchwiz is pretty terrible on the Tab S. I am running liquid smooth and its running amazing on my T800 16gb. Well, if you have anymore questions, let me know!

Thanks so much for the quick and useful response! that pretty much summed up everything =D and yeah, I've already heard the horrors of touchwiz long before I was considering this device. As long as it's not something that's like, hardcoded (which.....i'll admit i've never heard of...), as long as I can throw a cleaner rom on there, that's all I need ^^
and yeah, I did some initial research about availability and the difficulty of getting 32gig versions is a bit frustrating, but hopefully that'll turn out to be the easier part. anyway, thank again for all the info! ^^

Is buying the Nexus 7 (2013) still worthy?

Good evening.
I was wondering if I should get the Nexus 7 (2013) or wait for the next Google Tablet may it be a nexus or silver or L or whatever it is called.
As I understood instead of ASUS google chose HTC for its next device.
The thing is, I was curious and wanted to wait for it..
But - I found the nexus 7 (2013) 16GB for 195$.
Any suggestions ?
btw, I read some mixed review - does it have an external SD option or not ?
thanks in advance.

Definitely buy the current tablet its great and it will get the L update soon. 1.5 GHz doesn't seem like a lot compared to others but trust me, great tablet easy to root. Tons of support and big community. Buy the current nexus 7.

Thanks mate ... seriously considering it ...
Question though... Can you swap its battery or put in an SD card ?
Since its not water proof I assume you could, but I can't seem to find anything to support that...
some sites say it has SD and in some others when I look at the specs. it doesn't mention the SD option...
I guess NEXUS 7 (2013) only have 1 version right ? (I live in Japan so we tend to get "special" versions)

No on both questions. There are two versions of the Nexus 7 (2013): WiFi only and LTE. Although, I don't know what availability the LTE version is outside the US.

Got it
Thanks...
Have a nice day.

You would want 32gb if storage is an issue, I got mine 3 months back and its worth it but I'm wondering if lte is better since I could just use it as a phone instead. Having phone and tablet is a luxury to me especially with 4+ inch screens.
I use a server at home for data storage.
The tablet is thin and it fits in my pockets comfortably.
Its not too late, the screen is superior than average and the performance is quick

After returning my Nexus 7 twice to Asus and finally getting a good working unit, I've found that my Note 3 kills this tablet. Washed out colors, slower performance, and gets hot quick. Nexus 7 is a good device for you first time tablet owners and those that don't have a larger smartphone. Good luck if you decide to buy, there will always be good dev support for this device.

You should buy it if you really need it. I guess 195$ for Wifi only, right?
I own one, it is good device and lot of support. But I have an Android phone and a big laptop, so that sometime I only use my n7 for chatting when I work.
7inch is good. But if I were you, I would wait the new 8inch

They have certified refurbished off of Ebay right now for only $159 which is what I picked up for a 32gb Wifi. Figured its cheap enough that even if I only use it for a bit it should be worth it and will be a big replacement for my Asus T700

It is a fantastic device. I am in love with mine even after owning a Galaxy Tab S. Definitely a good buy at that price. I would always buy new... Never returned but that is personal preference.

I got the LTE and my daughters have the WiFi 2012. Both great and I do a lot of gaming in multiplayer. But the new nexus looks like it has been really improved and word is end of summer it may come out. If it were me I'd probably wait unless I really needed one right away.

The LG G3, how has it fared for you so far? Please share your opinion.

Hi fellow G3ers,
I have had the device for just over a week and I must say I am very unhappy with it.
Not sure if I just have rotten luck with devices but I've had 2 Nexus 5, both of which had problems either rooted or not and no matter what custom ROM I had installed and now the G3.
I am experiencing severe battery drain, a major lag on many applications and just generally not happy with it.
Here is a quick video of my 5 biggest disappointments of the device:

well, you either love it or hate it!
for me is the best device i had so far, comin from galaxy S4, take some time pal, remove bloatware, get a root, there are plenty solutions for lag around here... new firmware 10g does draining more battery( UK version) but give it a week and probably a new update will come out, if dont wanna wait just get another KDZ like the one from Germany apparently is far better than UK one, and try it, if that doesnt help then go back to nexus

Hey,
Actually getting an S5 because of the overall package, like Amoled, dev support and various other things like IP certification.
I might try and play around with other KDZ's but really disappointing overall to have had such a bad experience with supposedly such an amazing phone.

Never played with s5... But i wanted a bigger screen in smaller package i would say.. And i really started to hate samsung for this Knox.. wait till the the phone gets unlocked and you'll see what devs will cook for this device!

I'm very happy with mine. The battery life is the best when idle. I also avarage around 6 SOT so Thats pretty freaking good to me.
Performance side, zero lag. None. I have the 3gb version which is maybe why. I would never buy a 2gb of ram phone anymore simply because something tells me its going to be the minimum from now on and 3gb recommended for future versions of android.
Design its the best and most efficient of all phones. Awesome camera. Great natural looking screen and plenty bright. Brighter than the s4. Its just a good all around package. S5 would best it if it wasn't for the design and over saturated screen though.

The spec looks very promising for 8" model:
4k (2048 * 1536) IPS touchscreen
2GB (4GB for 64GB model) RAM
choice of 16GB ($180), 32GB ($200), and 64GB ($300) NAND + micro SD
Android Lollipop
7" model is very cheap ($100)
1024 * 600 IPS touchscreen
1GB RAM
16GB NAND + micro SD
Android Lollipop
The question is the bootloader locked or not; if so, we may have hard time to root.

I am basically waiting for atleast a root or something. But I might not be able to wait that long, I really want to buy this.

Actually, I don't really need root as 5.x has a new method to allow the app to save data to memory card as long as the app supported.
I tried the unit in person and I really like the screen (very sharp and bright), but it's difficult to get accessories even the size is similar with iPad mini (front speakers killed it).

i've already rooted it here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/android/development/zenpad-s-root-achieved-t3160422/post61941689
you should probably do a nandroid as your first step for just in case. i haven't done one so i have no clue if it restores properly.
you achieve root through a temp/tethered cwm.
hopefully someone can take all that and maybe make it simpler. i'd love to have a perm cwm or twrp.
i think it may have been more appropriate to have posted it to this subforum.

How do you do that? I'd love to add my name to the list. I know I should wait and see before buying, but I couldn't resist. Moved from a Lenovo Yoga Tablet 10 to this one. Still have 14 days to play with it, so we'll see how it goes. Even though the Tab S 2 is coming in the same 4:3 ratio, I'm sure it'll be priced well above this one, since its got the octacore and whatnot.

samsung is juicing the hell out of that exnyos5. sad thing is that almost all their "premium" tablets run pretty much on the same hardware but they've abandoned the galaxy note 10.1 2014 - the first with that processor.
i'v read that tablet is gonna be over $500.

That's true. $500?! Wtf. I know they have an 8 and 9.7" version...I'm guessing 399 for the 8 and 499 for the 9.7"? Back to trying to compete with Apple, I suppose. I wanted something different to go with my 6+, so I've been bouncing around tablets using the 14-day return policy (though two were defective anyway so they didn't sount). Maybe I should just wait for the 4GB version of this one. Here's hoping we get a forum and some major interest soon. I'd love to run CM and a few others on this thing.

Hey,
You can check out bestbuy for Tab Pro 10.1 which is similar EXCEPT S Pen.
I really don't want Samsh*t, but, unfortunately, most of manufacturers are digging on basic models (720P screen, 1GB RAM, 8-16GB NAND).
I used to own two Asus ME572c, but both are broken (and one of them thrown out of window). I wanted the third one but it's no more.
The only thing I don't like is 4:3 ratio which leaves HUGE black stripes when watching TV and video.

Samsung makes good hardware bt lack in support and charge near apple prices. at least with an apple you'll get some support for the money you dump into it.
I love 4:3 for web browsing and reading. portrait is easier to hold and having the extra width (compared to a 16:10 of the same diag size) is great. but when you watch movies you do feel like you're losing some real estate... unless you're watching an old TV show like Oz.
I considered getting the tab s 10.5 but gaining an amoled wasn't worth giving up the pen. the note pro 12.2 is exactly the same hardware as the 10.1 but has a more recent OS last I looked.

Good afternoon (or morning depending on where you are LOL)
For those of you who purchased this tablet, how do you like it so far? I am looking to replace my boyfriend's nexus 7 (also made by ASUS) since the charging port stopped working. He doesn't care about rooting, and basically uses it to browse the net, facebook and play games like Candycrush lol I'm thinking the 32GB model for $199 will suffice, although he may end up with the $99 one if there's expandable memory. I didn't see anything about a MicroSD slot on it. Is there one?

yes it has a mSD slot. I think it only supports up to 64GB. I'm loving mine. main use is book and comic reafing, plus web browsing. I've tested a couple games- Minecraft and soul calibre and both ran flawlessly. don't let the speaker size fool you, this thing is loud and clear!
no regrets buying mine. trying to get my daughter to let me buy her one but she won't let go of her memopad!
only downside right now is lack of accessories. I can't find anyone that can get me a case until after August. I love how thin this tablet is, but it feels so dainty without a case,lol.

Finally I got mine from Best Buy.
The way I root is following the instructions above, but...
1. choose T2 in command prompt
2. MAKE SURE YOU HAVE 32GB or lower SD card (CWM does not support FAT64).
Compared with ME572c:
572 is a bit louder
Quadrant is around 14000 (572 got 18000)
Antutu is 37000
It's recommended to have protection on the back
Bootloader is not locked (as of now even after updated to latest ROM)
The viewing area is about the same with 9:16 videos
It only supports B/G/N Wi-Fi, no 5GHz
Backup from 572 can be restored in this unit except system apps
You can tap the screen twice to wake like LG units.
The store rep told me Z580c is selling pretty fast, and I found it's already sold out in many stores in Manhattan (I got mine at Atlantic Terminal store where only has one unit left)

Actually, I'd like to get the 10.1" model as well, but BH (bhphotovideo.com) doesn't have it in stock yet.
$180 with 2GB RAM is pretty unusual.
If 10.1 models came with unlocked bootloader, it will attract a lot of developers.

pretty good specs for under $200. i'm supposing they didn't include 5ghz on this model either given how cheap it is. 1280x800 isn't as bad a resolution as some people make it out to be at such a small size unless you're looking at tiny old fonts. movies have very little benefit going to 1080 at this size.

It seems that it fits in the generic 8 inch tablet cases. Bought one at Five below yesterday... Said it fit the kindle HD and iPad mini. The hole for the camera even lined up. I brought the tablet with me to make sure it fit.

Is the Samsung Galaxy Tab Pro 8.4 worth buying nowadays?

Hey guys, a friend is offering to sell me his Samsung Galaxy Tab Pro 8.4 for around 200$.
With a glass screen protector and few cases. He is saying the tablet was barely used and in a "new" condition.
I am looking for a light tablet for YouTube, some Web Browsing and maybe to show my Source Codes in interviews.
But I really like AOSP - it is really important for me to be able to install an AOSP rom. I see that there is a CM13 for this tablet, which is good.
My question is, this tablet is 2 years old already, is it worth buying in this price? Is there something better I can get new for around that price?

Well that about what they go for 'round theses here parts ~200.00€. (i.e. The T325 LTE)
So is it worth it? The Tab S is a few bucks (Checking Fleebay.de between 10~50€), more. And has seen better support from Samsung then our Tab Pro 10's & 8's
Which unlike the Tab Pro actually got Updates to Android 6 Marshmallow. It also features a Fingerprint Scanner that the Pro doesn't have.
Also the Tab Pro comes in 16/32GB Flavors, where as the Tab S comes with 32GB base, and 64GB variants.
So on that front I'd say the Tab S LTE (SM-T715) wins.
That said, The Tab Pro 8.4 LTE, (SM-T325) with its 2GB's of RAM IMHO is more than a capable Device. It can still handle most Games just fine.
And most (if any), of its problems can be traced back to the lack of Dev support of that variant. (i.e. T325 LTE), the T320 OTOH has a broader support base, and is officially supported by CyanogenMOD.
But, I wouldn't let that stop you, as the Dev supporting us has been terrific when it come to nightly builds.
But, I would interject One last thing here though, since you failed to mention it.
Is this Device in question the T320 (WI-FI), or the T325 (LTE) version)?
If its the LTE version then $200.00 for it, is ~ok~. If he's trying to flog off a T320 (Wi-Fi), however, then IMHO hes gipping you.
I wouldn't offer much more then a flat $100.00 for it, my self..
P.s. Odd that I should now check fleebay, and see that some others are actually asking for ~200.00€'s for their T320's...
Damed if I'd know what was so great about that variant, that I would dispose that much cash for one, when I could get the LTE version for the same or less.

Damed if I'd know what was so great about that variant, that I would dispose that much cash for one, when I could get the LTE version for the same or less.

It is the T320, meaning no LTE. 16GB of storage.

Like I said I would pass... For that money there are better options.
Or try to see how far down hes willing to go.
Like I said no 3G / LTE Modems... I wouldn't really pay anything much more then a flat $100.00 for it.
Perhaps a $125.00 tops if he was a really god friend, and needed the money.
But, $200.00 is way too much for that Device. EOS

OK Thanks.
Any other good 8-10" devices around that price?

Like I said for that, theres either the LTE version of the T32x, or you could just look for a T710 (Tab S), Which I've detailed somewhat in my first post.

For $200 you might as well grab a Shield Tablet K1. The TabPRO should be under $150 to be worth looking at now.

They gave me a $400 trade in credit on my Tab S4, so this cost me 250. Will I notice much of a difference?????

You wil definitely notice the shty lcd screen.

Did the same exchange (for S7+), and I do really love some stuff:
- 120Hz screen, this is very noticeable if you are used to that frequency.
- Official keyboard accessory isn't crap anymore, it won't disconnect easily and has touchpad. No more external mouse.
- Camera is best now, as its located horizontally instead of vertically
- Fingerprint reader >>>> Optical
- RAM improvement is great. Many people don't often see that, but if you are multitasking is quite easy to observe. Specially if you ran Linux inside.
- Audio is definitively better.
If you are artist (I'm not), S-Pen is noticeably better, more responsive. If you have some official cover, it won't fall easily. S-Pen protection at S4 tab was awful, I lost that S-Pen once while traveling.

I also did the exchange/trade in with my old 12.9 inch iPad Pro 2017 model. They gave me $500 for it which is like practically what I bought it for almost 4 years ago. So couldn't turn that down. Unfortunately Pro-Motion on the iPad Pro (120hz refresh) really spoiled me and there was no way I'd be able to go back to 60hz refresh. Luckily Samsung came out with these otherwise I'd of been forced to get another iPad Pro. Not that I hate iOS but man after using it for 4 years and then coming to Android again you really notice how restrictive iOS is.
Have had it for about a week and a half now. I grabbed the S7+ with 256gb storage mainly for the extra 2 gigs of ram. I don't tend to really use to much storage, but figured the extra 2gb of RAM would be nice. Not sure if it'll makes a difference but I figured it can't hurt and may help future proof the device a bit down the line as I plan on keeping this for years. I heard the LCD screen on the regular S7 is actually quite nice so you should like it. The speakers are excellent, get very loud and sound good. SD 865+ makes the device very snappy. The fact it comes with a S-Pen is also awesome. I find myself using it often even though I don't do any kind of drawing or art like stuff.
I've been very happy with everything so far and I'm sure you'll love it as well. Samsung did a great job this year with this tablet!

Did you guys buy WiFi or cellular devices? Apparently AT&T doesn't have the s7+ yet and I don't know if I get another carrier device will they be interchangeable or unlockable to another carrier??

I got the WiFi only version. Surprised AT&T doesn't have it yet. That seems weird. Its been on the market for like 6 months.
I've only owned one tablet with data and that was actually the first generation of this tablet, the Tab S 10.5. I don't know if you would be able to ever change the carrier though. I was going to say I wouldn't think so but honestly I'm not sure. I had mine stolen all those years ago so I never saw if I could unlock it. I presume once its paid off they wouldn't care about it being unlockable. But what do I know lol. Hopefully someone will respond who can shed some light on this for you bud.

Thanks for the reply ..... I sure hope my ATT rep is correct but he said that I could order the TMO S7+ from Samsung and that it was already unlocked .... But I guess we'll see in a couple of days!! I ordered it

I just got the S7+ a few days ago, really liking it so far. I got the WiFi only model. Had a Tab S6 LTE through Verizon but I never really used the LTE as I was always in a place with WiFi. Went with the unlocked Samsung version of the S7+ since Verizon likes to remove features like Call and Text on other devices. I love that feature between my Fold 2 and S7+. Plus I wanted the larger screen of the S7+ as I use it primarily for media consumption.
