    Post "Recent" button not working with apps on my new Samsung Galaxy Tab S2 9.7 Tablet

    The button is not designed to give menu items, as with some versions of android previously. This button only controls multi window with a long press, or quick press gives running apps to select from the carousel. Any menu buttons in lollipop will be via on screen menu icons such as material...

    Hi, I have a Tab 2 7.0 and a p6800 - the P6800 is running ICS as is the Tab 2, but I much prefer the white background for the Setting and other menus within Samsung's TW. Is there any way to control the background colour that anyone is aware of please?

    Post ICS on galaxy tab 7" 2 - Does it work the same for us?

    I have both - back to back comparing them both and my P6800 7.7 is way faster on ICS than the Tab 2 7.0 - the Tab 2 is nice, but definitely slower on bringing up settings menus, calendars and the like, and this is before any content has been put on the device - completely vanilla. The 7.7 is...

I turned my wifi off prior to sticking it in to recovery mode, just in case it 'held' the setting when flashing. Wifi works perfectly, no drop outs in over an...
