    Tablet only charges while OFF.

    OK, thanks guys. Found the correct adapter and problem solved. Probably should have woken up to this myself, but it had previously charged OK from the USB hub, and I didn't think to try switching to a wall socket until this problem occurred.

    Tablet only charges while OFF.

    Well, in that case voltage could be the problem. The wall-plug I'm using is 5V 0.68A. No idea where the actual plug that came with the tablet is. I'll have to have a look around and see if I can find it. It's probably being used for something else.

    Tablet only charges while OFF.

    That sounds reasonable, but I don't think it applies in this case. I have since tried to charge via a 240V wall plug and the same situation exists: the tablet must be OFF for charging to take place - if the tablet is on the red X is there.

    Tablet only charges while OFF.

    This seems to be a recent development, as I have had my Galaxy Tab S 10.5 for several months now, rarely ever shut it down, so I would have noticed before this if it wasn't charging. The situation now is that if I plug the cable into the USB port while the tablet is ON, there is a red X over...

    Storage expansion

    I appreciate your comments on quality, but the problem for me is that anything from the USA (i.e. Amazon) costs a lot more than the ticket price because of exorbitant freight costs – even on small packages. Not to mention the fact that with exchange rates the way they are at the moment I lose a...

    Storage expansion

    Hi. Have had my Galaxy Pad S 10.5 for about a week and have decided I need more storage. Are either of these cards the right type for my tablet? They are affordable prices, and I've seen 64GB cards advertised at over A$100, but I'm not made of money. KOGAN OR FISHPOND Thanks.

    How can I do wireless printing from my Galaxy Tab S 10.5?

    Wireless printing from Galaxy Tab S 10.5 Hi. I have just purchased a Samsung Galaxy Tab S 10.5 Wi-Fi (not 4G), not very familiar with it yet, but trying to configure it to print to my Canon MG6250 wireless printer. Both printer and Tablet are connected to the Huawei ADSL2+ modem/router. On...

    How do I change the size of the Cast video?

    Changing size of the Cast video My Chromecast is working fine, but I have a sizing problem I hope someone can help me with. The way I'm casting videos that is I drop the video file (usually MP4 or MKV) onto a Google Chrome tab and Cast from there. So far all the videos I've tried have cast...

    Phone-to-PC connection app

    I didn't see any statement from them that it was because they didn't have the hardware to test on. But it wouldn't be much of an excuse anyway, considering you can pick up a dual SIM phone for 100 bucks or less. My Medion E4002 cost about A$149 new six months or so ago, and i'm sure you can get...

    Phone-to-PC connection app

    Only if you have the Service in Windows' Startup, so its running in the background right from the get go. Run --> msconfig --> Startup and remove the WonderShare service – forget what it's called now but it should be easy to spot. Yes, I do agree – most things work, and work quite well. But...

    Phone-to-PC connection app

    Yes, that allows a connection between the phone and the PC, and is a pre-requisite for any app of the type we are discussing. However the mere connection doesn't give you very much of use. For example it doesn't open up a simple way to send SMS using a decent sized screen and a proper keyboard...
