[Q] How to find out activation date of Galaxy Tab - Galaxy Tab Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi,
can someone tell me please how to find out the date of the activation of the device. I mean the first "contact" to the Google servers or similar.
Is there any logfile? Maybe in the build.prop?
Thank, Joshua

Hello,
In build.prop it is not there for sure. It is a configuration file.
It is probably somewhere on the system partition. Problem is that as you know the Google account can be configure multiple times again. For example after a ROM change it can be erased and setup again. Then it will not show the first day of contact but rather the new day of contact. Are you interested in how old the device is?

If u want to know how old the device is?
Then go to this place.

Register.Then put the serial number[found on the backside of ur tab] in the space provided and hit send.U will get ur answer.

Firstly how does not been able to install appbrain stop you from downloading anything from market?
Second, what do you mean you cant install it, Have you got the apk file? what happens when you run the installer?
Third, please use descriptive titles for topics, What you wrote does not describe this topic.
If you want help you need to give more detail, Nobody reads minds here.

Am assuming yours a GSM tab.
firmware tells you are running Froyo 2.2
Build number tells you what FRoyo ROM firmware you have I.e. JK2...this basically gives the date of the current build and the build version for your location/country...
Baseband tells you which modem you have in this JK2 modem
All the above basically means its on stock firmware not modded.
For not able to download from the market...do the following...go to Settings>Applications>Manage Applications. Tap on ALL running applications, scroll down and tap on Market. In the Application Info page which opens up, tap on clear data and restart your phone...hopefully it should now work.
Appbrain no idea...btw appbrain is not the same as google market...

You need to enable non market apps to side load applications

answer to your first question... my gmail account does not detect my galaxy tab as a device or for some reason isn't getting synced.. although when i created my new gmail account it showed the round sign which you get when it is being synced with.. but whenever i go to the android market and log in... it doesn't detect my galaxy tab and says there are no device synced with my gmail account... and because of that i can't install any softwares ...
secondly ... no i don't have the apk file since when ever i try to download it... i get that error message..
thirdly.. i apologize for my messed up english and i wasn't trying to look cool with my post.. or anything.. i am not from usa or uk so my english is not upto the mark like you guys and i am so sorry for that.. please tell me my mistakes and i will try to overcome them from now on.. again i am so sorry for the trouble..
and my thread tittle was meant to be "hi i am new xda devs forum and i always wanted to be in it but i didn't have the proper gadget for it all this time but now i am able to afford one android after so long and i am facing a problem with my samsung galaxy tab as i know nothing about it.. so i want to know is it jailbreaked or did i get the real thing ... and secondly i cannot download anything from the android market ... is it because i don't know how to do it?? or is it because i can't sync my gmail account with it?? cause when ever i want to sign in it says my device is not synced with my gmail account.."
besides if i don't need appbrain.. could you tell me the procedure to download from the android market??
So you sign in with you gmail account but it doesn't sync anything? Go to accounts & sync and see what is syncing. Doesn't make sense that it says there isn't a device synced with your account.
Never heard of this problem before. Only similar issue i've heard like this is after syncing some paid apps don't show in to market, not that it doesn't work at all..
And regarding downloading from the market. Open it up, choose your app, download it.
And your Tab is molded because it says 'root' in your kernel info but it sounds like you're running a stock rom.

Sorry, appbrain just won't work if you don't have the market installed, as AppBrain still lets the market handle all app downloads.

Google Now for Galaxy Tab 8.9 running on CM 10.1

Hi guys,I'm quite new to this and I do not know if this has been posted or what but since I did not find the answer for quite some time already I tried to experiment on this. I just wanted to share this with everyone using the Galaxy Tab 8.9 running on the CM 10.1 ROM and can't get Google Now working. I just found another version of this one from Google so here you go.
Reminders:
DO NOT UPDATE it.

I placed spaces after every cluster of letters and special characters because XDA won't let me post from outside URLs because I'm just a new member. Just delete the spaces and you'll be good to go.
I wish this one helps.

Cannot update Galaxy Watch 3, it says "Watch software update: Registration failed"

Hi everyone.
As the title says, I just got a brand new Samsung Galaxy Watch 3 (45mm, if that matters) and I'm having trouble updating it. I can set it up just fine and notifications and everything works correctly. But once I try to update its software, it says "Watch software update: Registration failed" (please see screenshot below).
My Watch is model SM-R840 running Tizen 5.5.0.1, build number R840XXU1BTK1.
Can anyone help me please? I tried googling but couldn't find anything other than some sketchy stuff about flashing new firmware, etc.
I tried it on a Samsung Galaxy phone as well as on a Google Pixel. I tried resetting, etc., but nothing seems to work...

Thanks a lot!

Thanks for your response. Can you let me know how to do that? I'm not that familiar with flashing firmware on watches so I'm out of my element a bit.

I am able to check my CSC and I did enable develop options but it doesn't even seem to connect to the update server (please see screenshot).
I would appreciate it if you could help me figure out what is going on with my watch...
