    Making the Samsung Tab 3 P5210 into a mini android computer

    There are tablets out there with mouse, keyboard, tablet dock and a mini USB OTG smart box to make it into a mini computer. The Tab 3 has Polaris Office. It's a pain to use with the on screen keyboard. And doing email on the tablet is quirky in the same way. Out on ThingVerse for 3D...

    Galaxy Tab 3 GT P-5210 update OS.

    I found the Samsung mini-USB OTG cable to PC yesterday. Hooked it up to the PC. Then launched Kies. Immediately Kies came back and stated there is an OS update to KitKat. Wow, who would of thought a 10 year old device would still have this available. Reading on the XDA site, it is best to...

    Galaxy Tab 3 10 - Is there a tool or method to delete pre-loaded Apps that came with the device?

    I'm just amazed at this 10 year old device with nearly no support, no upgrades and silly pre-loaded apps that are orphaned from reaching the Samsung site or their provider site. It would be great to delete several of them like, - Businessweek+ - ChatOn - Flipboard - Hangouts - Music Hub -...

    Why wont yoube play on my samsung tab3

    The Tab 3 has 1Gb of RAM . As YT streams larger packs of data to your device, the space gets used up quickly. People have found this solution to work, making the old Tab 3 at 2Gb of memory use. It's called virtual swap space. Read this posted thread carefully first before just jumping to...

    Got a NEW Tab-3 out of the box last October.

    The entire 128+ pages was started by member "nels83". Rather than reading all those postings, could take a year! I opted to see where he posted in all those pages. This was fast and rewarding to understand how all this worked. His postings from the start to his last posting shows his...

    Got a NEW Tab-3 out of the box last October.

    There is a very very very very long 128-ish pages of posting on the XDA site for the upgrade of the Tab 3 10.1 https://xdaforums.com/t/rom-gt-p52xx-unofficial-7-1-2-lineageos-14-1.3587761 The link starts off saying it makes the Tab 3 10.1 work in Android 7.0, 7.1 or 7.1.2 I've not dug far...

    March 2020, Galaxy Tab S3 Security Patch is out. (U.S.)

    I moved all the info out of the Tab S3 to the Tab 3 10.1 on the site. My mistake of not knowing there was another device with a close name. https://forums.androidcentral.com/threads/got-a-new-tab-3-out-of-the-box-last-october.1075528/#post-7247485
  10. Q

    Got a NEW Tab-3 out of the box last October.

    Per the Samsung site, both Jelly Bean 4.2.2 and Kitkat 4.4.2 were both used on the Tab 3 devices. Depends on the early production vs the last year production. Android Jelly Bean, (my device is weird. It has the English language, but the Panama firmware, even though this never left the...

    GT-P5210 freeze on "Samsung GALAXY tab3" screen after root

    How is the Tab # working today? I too need to upgrade. I can only run a few apps with the original Jelly Beam. I need at least Oreo as a minimum OS for most things to work.
