Hi
In few hours i will get my new CAP
What i need to know is, what is the best way to move all my data and apps from my nexus?
I also think i'll need help with other stuff but i think xda has all i need.
My plan for now:
1. unlock
2. root
3. new rom (don't know what to choose)
4. voodo
Did i miss something?
Also any tip you can give me, i'm a new samsung user, it's hard for me to leave my n1 trackball behind

This is the first time I have ever been near or used an Android phone. I got my i9000 a few days ago and have started messing about with widgets etc. I have been reading this forum for a few months prior to owning an Android phone as technology interests me. I was following a home screen thread and realized I had to root my Galaxy S to be able to take screenshots. Then I found the One Click Lag Fix app that was on the Android market. The lag was something that was really bothering me and now its running really smooth.
So now I have root what else should I do to my phone?
Any help is appreciated.
Thanks
A couple apps I use that need root access: mybackup pro and root explorer.
Have fun
I'll be sure to check them out. Anyone else?

This is what I thought too. Apart from backing up to the average user, there doesn't seem to be a lot to do!

Flash roms, overclock cpu, clear app caches. Modify system apps (eg make browser fullscreen).
Anything really.
Clocksync - if cell-network time sync sucks.
MarketAccess - if you can't purchase apps on market
Autokiller or Minfree manager - to keep memory tidy (less necessary on the most recent firmwares)
Screenshot - should be obvious.

Im sticking to stock for now, see no reason to switch. I mostly mix/mash stuff from other roms if i like. But yea i just got my vibrant few days back so i don't know wht roms are available/good. There was this thread however, look for "best firmware" i believe it was called.
Okay thanks for the tips everyone
There are usefull programs once u have root.The sound booster is one of them u can find it in this dev section

I just lost my Captivate and was wondering if there was anyway I can track it to make it easier to find.
Not unless you have previously installed an app to do such a thing

Plan B?
https://market.android.com/details?id=com.lookout.labs.planb
Try and install it from the android market on your computer
I haven't tested out that app yet soo I can't tell u if it really works.. Hope u find your phone!!
Is there a way to turn on app ads in a custom rom or at least for one app? There is an app that I have that in order to become a full version, one has to click on an ad. However, because I am running a custom rom, continuum to be exact, the ad will not pop up. Can this be achieved? Of course if the only way for this is to work is to use a custom rom or stock rom that allows ads permanently then I doubt it is worth it.

Same question has already been asked, please use search next time before you post.
Thank you and sorry. The XDA app does not have I good search function, and I didn't have access to a computer at the time.

Hi dear!
I'm currently using Nexus S but I want to get galaxy tab!
I used to have iPad 1g and it was quite useful for study and web browsing.
I miss my iPad right now but I have not budget t.t
So I just want to get galaxy tab as a phone and a tablet pc.
I have some questions so please answer me asap before I make a decision!
1. how is the battery life? (compare to smartphone such as nexus s)
2. How is the internet browsing? (compare to iPad, does it have lag when scrolling?)
3. as a phone, is it okay? (I heard when calling, can use a bluetooth earphone)
4. is it fine to read pdf files? (as I'm a student so I need to read some pdf files and ebooks in galaxy tab.)
5. Skype has been updated hence is video chat working on galaxy tab?
Please reply me I don't mind whether or not it will be updated to honeycomb if it works well as a phone, an ebook reader and a multimedia device.
oh should I root it for better performance or is it okay with a stock rom?
1. 8 hours flat out depending how you use it 2-3 days if you leave it alone.
2. Depnds what browserdolphin browser hd is the fastest.

3.as a phone its ok if you use earphones or handsfree but impractical without them as you have to hold it upside down with the screen pointing away from you.
4. Yes you can as long as you get all the free adobe stuff of the market.
5. Yes you can video chat now although it's a bit pixilated and laggy.
6. If you want extra functionality or to install custom roms boot animations and have full control over it, root it with superoneclick, you can get superoneclick from shortfuse.org
NOTE: ROOTING WILL VOID YOUR WARRANTY.

Okay thanks for reply
but I saw the stock browser on gingerbread is blazingly fast!
should I use the third party app?
Btw, I read that if I root, I can also do video chat on google talk, is it right?
two more! handsfree is in the original package or have to buy?
lastly, after rooting, how can I update OS although we dont know exactly when it will come out?
Stock browser is very fast but isn't tabbed and dolphin browser is which is slot faster.
Earphones with a microphone come with the tab but handsfree kits come separately and you don't need any kind of special one just one with bluetooth.

Yes you can video chat as long as the other person has a pc with a webcam or a rooted device with goggles talk on it.
For the last one that's a question to go to the development section but all I know is you need to get the files from there and flash them with odin there will usually be a guide that comes with it.
Hope you buy a galaxy tab or you might consider galaxy tab 10.1 (the ipad slayer)

Seems you could get your question solved with gtab which has low budget

I love my Tab. Do lots of surfing and reading on it. It's the perfect size (for my uses anyway.) Don't have any plans to replace my phone with it though, so can't say as far as those aspects go. If you can find one for $200 or less, it's a steal and well worth the money.
Definitely

Thank you for reply.
But in New Zealand where I live, tab p1000 brand new is still 640 and only wifi version is 500. Is it worth if I use it as what I stated on the above? Hm..

i recently got my samsung galaxy tab and it's the best device i had ... with custom rom i use overcome rom and the battery life is really great .. the best size for a tab as you can hold it with one hand while going out and even to use it as a phone .. many many apps and games are optimized for it ... great Tablet indeed ..
Is it possible, I don't necessarily want to flash or have to root.
Thanks.

You cant do that, removing system applications require root.
Depends what bloat you're talking about? There really isn't much on there to be honest.
Figured as much, I just remember when I got my One there was something like 4-5 gbs already taken up.
Sent from my HTC One using xda premium
You can't remove em without root, but you can disable many of them. I have about 15 apps that came pre installed that I won't use (mostly carrier crap, and stuff like Google Magazine, books, etc..)
Go to settings - > apps - > all, then select disable if it isn't grayed out...
A lot of the HTC apps can't be disabled, but whatever can is worth it
Pretty much like freezing.. You still have the apps taking space, but they won't run and will disappear from your app drawer!

i assume your talking about the 6.9ish gb that comes used up from when you first turned on the phone? that section is mostly a system partition used up by the android OS system. I'm not too versed in this but its pretty much neccessary. how large does that section have to be now that i'm not too sure. but every sense version i've ran on here custom 1.29 has pretty much the same size for that partition.
the best way without root is to disable the apps, as WolfDale7 mentioned.
Awesome, thanks for all the responses and help everybody!

And if I have root, how can I uninstall them since titanium itself doesnt?
