Until we Get a Forum for the 8.9 can you use this Thread
Thanks Guys
A
Thanks! We'll call it a temporary home. Now we need some dev's who can get CWM working and start cranking out some ROMs!
1st question !
Just bought a French HSDPA 8.9", locked on Orange network
Is there a chance to unlock it, using SGS or SGS2 tools available on Android Market ?
File structure is the same, network lock is probably stored in nv_data.bin (like SGS)
Does anyone know if we can use the 10.1 roms?

If we had CWM, I'd probably be willing to just give it a try!
what is required to get the new forum opened for the 8.9? A willing Mod? A certain number of committed devs? Enough user requests (is where do we send them)?
what android version is on your 8.9? Reviews say it comes with 3.2 preloaded but mine has 3.1 and when i check for updates it says there are none.

Anyone knows if this device has the moisture oil slick problem which affects the galaxy 10.1?

Would you believe that source instead of this one from Samsung? Read around the middle of the page (Google Maps pic).
Anyways I'd love a forum for this tablet I bought on the 7th. It is magnificent and pretty speedy (and even more so when you turn off all animations and delete useless Samsung widgets). Although I am waiting for Samfirmware.com to get the American source (they only have the Asian one for the 7310 which has a different versioning scheme) so I am able to ODIN safely.
Netflix apk for 8.9 ?
Just got my GT8.9-32GB today. Tried to install Netflix app 1.4.1 shows service unavailable error message. Same thing with 1.3 and 1.4.0. Any suggestions? Thanks in advance.

Install via Market? Or manually installed the APK?
You get the error while installing the app, or while running it?

Hi, was curious if any developers here are able to get Photoshop Touch working on the Note?
The Note is also advertised as a tablet as well and this would be so much better than the crappy Express version.
I have a feeling we need to wait for ICS for this to work but I am hoping I am wrong.
Thanks

Some people say it works with ICS on the Galaxy Nexus so it's definitly necessary ICS. Anyone have tried on the Note with CM ICS?

Photoshop Touch is a "Honeycomb" application, and as such requires Android 3+ to work. There's pretty much zero chance of getting it to work on Gingerbread as it simply doesn't have the frameworks to support the Honeycomb APIs.
ICS *should* remedy this.

If and when it works, it would be so amazing on the Note.

I dunno mate, I thought the same, but something wrong here!
Check this video http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=B7H7uk6QvbM
Shows photoshop touch runs on N7000, noticing the notification bar, I believe that guy is using stock ROM (GB 2.3), made me confused.
Tried to find a working apk, but all gave me parse error.
Dunno, video is real but, all other sources says it's not possible

There actually "is" an APK that allows it to be installed and works on Gingerbread and the Note specifically, if you've already bought it for use on a tab, then morally I don't see why you shouldn't use it (as you can buy once, install to many with apps you buy anyway) but legally I'm not so sure.
Swyped from my finger, to your face on my Samsung Galaxy Note, using Tapatalk!
Photoshop touch does indeed run on ICS. I've used it, and it runs well
I have also used the modified version for gingerbread RavenY2K3 is talking about. The creator of that version has modified resolution in the apk so as to make it run on low-res GB phones. Using it amounts to piracy, so I'd advise you to cease discussion about the GB version ;-)
The thing is, Photoshop touch, when it runs on a full-size tablet, is much more natural, fluid and intuitive. Coming to our smaller display, the Note is still a better option than most 'phones', but is still a little restricted. Basically the menus and buttons appear tiny, and they have to be. The good thing is, it's very smooth with the S-Pen.

the video is real, I went to the site and downloaded the modded apk. it works flawlessly.on my.GNote N7000. keep in mind it was made for tablet so everything is smaller....(icons/tools) BUT using the app with Spen is NO problem. works amazing with Spen. =] BTW if u get "parse error" its very normal I had to download apk from their mediafire link 3 times before succeeding. sometimes it doesn't download apk. file properly so just keep trying. I recommend downloading straight from your Note. =] if.you want apk just PM me.and ill.send u my.dropbox link .

At the Mobile World Congress 2012, Samsung announced the Galaxy Tab 2 10.1 running Ice Cream Sandwich. GSMArena.com got their hands on a demonstrator and produced the Youtube video below showing it off. I think we can expect the ICS release for the 8.9 to look about the same. What do you think about it?

Yes, including voice in ICS is not a problem. I think we just need a baseband that includes voice capability. If anyone is brave enough to try and flash GT7.7 or GT7.0Plus modem.img then we could maybe make it work. Unfortunately trying this could brick the radio or worse. I have thought about trying this, but i just don't want to brick my device...

1. Auto-rotate was off, so we couldn't see the rotation animation which is sometimes a bit choppy in 3.x.
2. Portrait mode wasn't shown (which is slower for the 10.1 in 3.x compared to landscape).
I wonder if ICS really brings us these magic software hacks that make the Tegra2 limitations go away...

There won't be an official JB for the 8.9. Actually, we're still waiting for ICS to deploy (the 3g version is yet to recieve official).

Depends what you want to do on the tablet... I find its only shortcomings are patchy playback of 1080p videos (720p seems ok but some video players are better than others).
(I'm running an ICS ROM which works perfectly).
Hey guys, I currently have a Samsung Galaxy S3 Mini... until tomorrow, I guess. What exactly would you like to know about it? I can make videos, take pictures... whatever
Give me some requests and tomorrow morning I hope to make some videos and whatever to answer your questions
Here's a picture of it compared to the S3 & Note 2.

The features and menus seem to be identical - I don't have the S3, but I checked a couple of youtube videos detailing the camera interface and it seems to be the same. Yes, you can also change the icons around to your tastes.

The U8420 is just a custom 8500... I couldn't see any differences between the two in all I've read.
The U8420 packs two Cortex-A9 cores clocked at 1 GHz and a single-core Mali 400MP GPU.
Thx a lot.:good:
I still can't decide which one to choose: S III Mini or S Advance. What would you choose, and why?
I chose the S III Mini because it's newer (so I think it will get more official updates than the Advance), comes with Jelly Bean 4.1.1 already installed, has 1 Gb of RAM... and because I kinda like the design. Even if I'll probably install every custom ROM made for it, it's still good to have official updates - drivers for example are still closed source and there's only so much the future devs will be able to do without the proper drivers.
The S Advance on the other hand has less RAM (768 MB) and doesn't look as nifty. The only trouble is that I don't know how well supported the S III Mini will be (here on XDA I mean), since it's been a month since its release and still no quick root method available. The bottom line is: if you're not that into installing and testing out custom ROMs, kernels and other stuff like this, then don't worry and go ahead on the S III Mini. Else, look around, see what the guys on the S Advance threads are doing and make a more informed decision.
But, of course, if there's a big price difference then the Advance will be a better deal.
Thanks for the exhaustive answer. I'll take S III Mini.

Put your phone in USB Debugging mode and send this command via ADB:
Code:
adb reboot recovery
Or, install Terminal Emulator on your phone and write:

reboot recovery
Please note that faria and brokenworm are to thank for these methods, they're the ones who posted them in the Rooting thread.

Hi everyone,
i'm looking into buying a new smartphone, the s3 mini got my attention!
i do have some questions about this devices do:
1:is it easy to unlock the bootloader and flash a custom recovery?(with my previous phone htc desire c it was a pain to do it)
2: i'm a heavy modder (install another rom almost everyday ) and i noticed some issues with the cyanogenmod roms RIL and tearing are these issues a big of a deal? (I rather like touchwiz so i don't know if i'm gonna install a custom rom on it)
3: my final question: does this phone have a notification LED like the galaxy s3/s4 note etc
thank you very much,

S3 Mini is just great with my latest release. Other phone than on stock xD
I can recommend that phone.
There's a i8190N version with NFC chip, fully compatible with all custom ROMs for i8190.
But temporary there's no custom ROM that support NFC. I'm working on it, so NFC support might be soon.
