I find that it starts to lag when there are too many apps open -- which is why I like how it's so easy to close them all at once. I also use Nova launcher and don't do animated desktops to keep the overhead down. I'm starting to realize that this tablet is going on 2 years and the processer...

Congrats! Yeah, Google Voice/Now pops up and then crashes. It would be nice to have but, oh well... BTW - It's handy that you can go into Settings > About Tablet > Cyanogen Updates and view/update the ROMs from there. I've been able to update the nightlies be just clearing out the caches and...

The process is exactly the same except the files you choose to load will be different. You'll be using the CM file and the most updated version of GApps (Google Apps) for 4.2. So the instructions for which buttons to push and so on are the same. Once you are rooted then it'll load a much easier...

Way, way faster than ICS. I was never a fan of Touchwiz (the only thing I ever used was the floating calculator). Pure Android is a lot better visually (though with 4.2 not as good as before). Here are the links that I used: Direct link to the Nightlies: CyanogenMod Downloads This used to get...

I've been using Cyanogenmod 10 (JB 4.2) nighties for a couple of weeks now. No issues so far except for Google Now bombing. 4.2 is both good and bad. Hate, hate, hate the way Google has reorganized the task bars. 10.1 and earlier made much more sense. The type in the top bar is so small it's...

Thanks for this!! I have a GTab 10.1 wifi running jellybean and have been waiting for this for awhile. Play Store kept saying that my Tab was incompatible. Sideloaded your version and it seems to work fine. Not sure why this was being held back. Crazy that 5 weeks into the season and the NFL...

Follow up. Ended up un-rooting my Tab. Kies for Windows Vista wouldn't recognize the new/old firmware but Kies for Mac did. Plugged it in and it asked if I wanted to update. Said yes and it downloaded and installed in about 1/2 hour. It's like a new machine. Also, Hulu Plus now works on it for...

Does anyone know if your Tab is rooted if the OTA update will still show up as available? I've rooted my Tab but have found that after installing Overcome I never really change ROMs or anything like that. I'm thinking about unrooting and then using the OTA update to get ICS but want to know if...

Does that mean that Cyanogenmod 9 will be fully functional after this ICS release since it'll have the complete source code to use? Or should I unroot (I'm using Overcome now) and then upload the official ICS release? Is the ICS release better/worse than Cyanogenmod 9? I'm obviously confused...

If you are using the stock 3.1 on your Tab then yes, it's laggy and not very smooth - especially after opening a few memory hungry apps. However, once I broke down and rooted, then installed Overcome ROM, everything has been smooth as silk. So I KNOW that it's totally possible to do. Once...

Here is an old thread here that has a lot of good info to transfer DVD to the Tab. http://forums.androidcentral.com/samsung-galaxy-tab-10-inch/107527-you-using-dvdfab-please-help.html I have a Mac and use WiFi File Transfer Pro to move large files back and forth. There are many apps out there...

Took the Plunge I threw caution to the wind and decided to go for it... - Went with OTA wifi. Kept my unrooted Tab plugged into the power and had it right next to the wifi router. Taking no 'unnecessary' risks. - Download of the package only took 6-7 minutes. - Asked me to install the...

Great instructions and video. One thing I have to ask though is what exactly are the pros and cons of rooting your Tab? I suppose the big pro is that you don't have to wait for Samsung to send an update out. I'm a pretty cautious person and though I think I'm tech savvy enough to do the root I...

Hey, that works great! The only downside with File Expert is that the http address changes every time. Although Wifi File Transfer doesn't work as a file manager (on the tab side) the transfer part is actually easier because it only does the one thing and does it well. Thanks!

Did you try the web sharing feature? A bit easier than the FTP function because you can use the browser instead of firing up a FTP application. Just need to type in the IP address that File Expert provides.
