Thanks for the response. You are right. S-Planner seems to be called simply Calendar now. I doped out a way to achieve my goal of syncing the Calendar with Microsoft Outlook. First, I turned OFF syncing calendars in every email account on the Tab2. Then I used Kies to sync ONLY Microsoft...

I upgraded to Samsung Official JB 4.1.1 on Tab2 7.0 and CF-rooted. I want to use the S-Planner Calendar from ICS days that synced with MS Outlook. Since the upgrade, the Tab2 Calendar now seems to be "Google" and therefore not syncing with the Outlook calendar on my PC. Tab2 "Accounts" are...

I remove fingerprints and smudges from the glass screen with a light spritz of eyeglass cleaner (being careful to avoid any of the electronics), and dry/polish it with a genuine Kleenex tissue (one without any handsoftener or other embedded agent.) Works beautifully.

My case is the "official" Samsung leather pouch case, minimalist, & flat. Since the two pieces of leather are sewn together all the way around the four corners it actually offers protection against a light drop. It is similar to the one shown at this link:: Samsung Leather Pouch Case - To Suit...

It is all about being informed in advance. A huge benefit of Jelly Bean to me will be the improved Google voice input -- support for offline voice-to-text. No more need for wi-fi when dictating. If we are offered the upgrade to Jelly Bean, I want to go in with eyes wide open. I am grateful...

I came across this stunning bit of news by accident in the Q&A part of Samsung's Web Site: It seems that Flash Player is no longer supported on Android after 4.0 - a good reason NOT to upgrade your TAB to Jelly Bean if you rely on the app. Read on: "Question: flash player Frustrated with my...

Most posts in the forum about Google Voice seem to be from Tab 10.1 users and people using GrooveIP. Has anyone with a Samsung Galaxy Tab 2 7" (wifi only) successfully used a free Google Voice phone number and the Google Voice App on the tablet to make and receive phone calls, text, receive...
