[Q] How fast is SGT in comparison to other gadgets?

Hi guys, I am considering buying a tab atm but want to know how fast it is with good MIUI and stock roms. The tabs I saw on display were extremely slow..
If anybody could give me a comparison to other phones, ill be thankful
Cheers!

Yeah, most of the Custom ROMs for the Galaxy Tab (Overcome as well as MIUI and CM7) do make the Tab run heaps faster. The single-core CPU will be noticeably slower than some of the newer dual-core hardware as apps continue to get more advanced, so the choice is yours. Still, I can attest that for the majority of use, my Tab running Overcome is more than speedy enough.

It is not fair to compare the original galaxy tab with the latest tabs available. And I should say it is really slow and sometimes force closes on the latest apps optimized for the latest tabs.
Remember it is more than 1 year old, and for today's technology is considered obsolete.
I would also like to add that despite of being old it is the only tablet that has complete phone functions integrated.

Is the speed comparable to a SGS?

As far as I know ROM, RAM, CPU & GPU is concerned, it essentially is an SGS.

[Q] How to Make Galaxy note faster?

I recently bought note (white) and it runs on stock rom. I have a gs2 as well, and i feel note is laggy sometimes and not as superfast as gs2. i dont prefer custom roms. Is there any tips to make the phone faster? I have many apps running in sd instead of phone. would that make a diff?

I think we just need to give samsung time to create better stock roms for us. Having been on the full journey for sgs1 im sure the note will be blazing fast in the future roms

For the time being use an alternative launcher which should give you a boost, example LauncherPro...

But still felt smoother with stock launcher.

thanks, it wox

Update to Kl7 firmware. It seems to have resolved most of the lagginess that made the Note feel slow

right. KL7 fixed it all.

I prefer GoLauncher, it's much smoother than LauncherPro. Homescreen switching is not as smooth as Touchwhiz tho.

Lol, funny how these launcher's work. In my case it's the opposite, LauncherPro is miles faster & smoother than both ADW Launcher & GoLauncher...

Ha, ADW has been very smooth on mine! I have not tried the other launchers on my note yet though. I updated to KL7 ota within an hour of acquiring the device, and have not experienced any lag whatsoever.

Guys, I am been a die hard fan of Apple iPhone and just last week I have shifted to Android, so I am not sure what you guys are talking about when it comes to launcher and KL5 or KL 7. Can someone guide me? My G-Note is not smooth as it should have been. I will appreciate an honest guidance

If you have task killer remove it. This device has enough ram

[Q] galaxy note - fast under ICS?

Hello,
after asking some info about the the battery on airplane mide, I ha now some question about ICS.
I have tested today the galaxy note, in a shop, running under android 2.1 or 2.3 ( I don' t remember...)
the device was so slow to use. it was really really slow. a lot of lags,the behavior was not good.
is the galaxy note faster with ICS?
thank you
olivier

There are varying opinions. Personally i found it smoother generally although was using launcher7 instead of touchwiz. The task management is fantastic. If youre looking at stock ics, samsung in their wisdom have skinned it exactly the same as gb which really annoyed me!
There are settings to select if you want hardware image decoding or software, i have a feeling its glitchy if using software.

Port of galaxy tab ROM?

Is this possible? Not stock based ROM with some themes and tweaks but a full out port of a tab2 7".

sure, if youre willing to work at it. but chances are it wont run perfectly. why would you want to downgrade your nexus 7 anyways?

Is there something about the Tab's version of Android that makes you want it over Google's? If it is something specific to the Tab from Samsung and not just an app the likelihood is it won't run right on the Nexus.

I had the chance to get a tab and I wanna see what the tab was like.

Might try a touchwiz rom, I think that the tabs are over rated.

Touchwiz rom here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2038920&highlight=touchwiz

I know of the ROM with the launcher but it doesn't have all the features the tab has to offer. (Not trying to say the tab is better than the nexus because the nexus 7 is amazing)
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I727 using xda app-developers app

Part of what makes the N7 so much better than the Tab is that it has much better hardware and specs. Running the Tab's version of Android on the N7 (assuming you could) wouldn't tell you much about the Tab in terms of performance. It would be a useless comparison in that regard.

The only thing I would want to see from the tab 2 7inch is the tab ui launcher from its ics Rom, I always see the other launcher from jb ported but never the one that has tab ui

I see threads like this in the forums of every device I've owned (and that's a few).
People want HTC sense on their Samsung's, Touchwiz on their HTC, or some other combination.
The only device I've ever seen it pulled off successfully was HTC sense on the nexus one and only because the HTC desire had identical internal hardware.
It's just way too much work as overlays like Sense, Touchwiz, and Motoblur are closed source. It's possible to reverse engineer them and get them working on different hardware but it's a huge amount of labour and the results would be poorly optimized and not very much fun to use if someone even did manage it.
Some people with tabs go to great effort to run pure Google on them and you have that out of the box so be grateful for what you have. The grass is always greener on the other side.

With 600mhz and less than 512mb ram, its not possible to have a proper multiwindow experience and yes the screen is too small.

I don't think its possible since we use cm build and they don't have this feature
I think this feature is made by Samsung Devs themselves and is closed source

Yeah , we cannot have for mini.

You can get floating browser and video player from google play store. Then you will know how small your minis screen is

you need to change build prop name of d device, but realy is not worth it...its for huge screens and tablets

i really don't know what is wrong with you guys, why you even expect galaxy mini to work like a new phone? it's getting older every day, and just because we have newest android on it (thanks to highly skilled developers, who are willing to spend their free time to make it happen) doesn't mean that it will perform like nexus 4 or galaxy note 2... seriously, get a grip of reality and save up for a new phone or deal with the fact that mini is getting obsolete...
