    I had this happen, but I after many reboot attempts I wiped the cache in cwm and all was back to normal. I don't know why that fixed it, but it did.

    missing attachment re-added it. ---------- Post added at 12:27 PM ---------- Previous post was at 12:17 PM ---------- Also, on my GTab I found that the native player sometimes doesn't work as well as some of the others. Fortunately there are lots of good choices, ultimately I settled on...

    Exported 720/H.264 profile for Handbrake Attached is a zip with the profile I use in handbrake. Unpack the zip to get the ".plist" file. Then import it into your Handbrake setup to try. I have converted about 600 hours of high def video and it plays well (both streaming and downloaded) on...

    Not correct, inbound calls to my Google voice number ring on my wifi tab when I'm signed into grooveIP. I don't forward the carrier assigned cell phone number. Sent from my GT-P7510 using Tapatalk

    Post (ROM)GALAXY TASK 14 Revamped! Slim & Fat (3.2) WIFI ONLY (2/10)

    I have samba sharing installed on all my devices, and lets me use any file explorer to copy files in either direction. I use Dropbox also, and but it can be slow and won't work with big files. Isn't this question better asked in another forum, not really ROM related?

    Turned off bookmark sync and hang problem gone? It's been 24 hours and I haven't had any hangs or spontaneous reboots, and even when taking the device out of the keyboard dock. The only change I made was turning off bookmark sync in account settings. If someone else with the hang problem was...

    This is what I do also, especially useful when you find yourself inside buildings with wifi but no wireless.

    Post (ROM)GALAXY TASK 14 Revamped! Slim & Fat (3.2) WIFI ONLY (2/10)

    Doesn't happen on stock, and and I'm not overclocking. I know if I can isolate the cause and it's fixable that everyone, including task and pershoot, will do what is practical to fix or help workaround the problem. First step is those of us having the problem isolating the cause. I am...

    That's probably not a practical diagnosis technique because of the unpredictable appearance of the issue and the number of apps. I have already have seen the problem once today. The browser stopped without fc message, cpu went to 100% being used by the launcher for about 2 minutes. I believe...

    Reflashing and memory wipes aren't fixing the problem for me. As soon as I restore my apps and widgets the problem starts again. I have turned on log to sdcard in alogcat, I am hoping that it will catch something interesting. Sent from my GT-P7510 using Tapatalk

    It happens to me a few times each day. When I get the freeze I can still get to the power menu to select reboot. Sometimes if I wait 5 or 10 minutes the tab will reboot on its own, and sometimes it will return to the home screen, and the most of the time it just hangs. It seems to happen to me...

    Post [APP 2.1+] Battery Monitor Widget 3.0

    Getting a more accurate estimation? I noticed that my Galaxy Nexus sometimes consumes a significant amount of power just after starting up. It seems logical to assume that this is a combination of the after boot media scan, gmail mail and calendar sync, g+ sync, etc. In my case the battery...

    Post I'd say the Extended Battery is worth it.

    Screen Time and Awake Time Give the battery time graph a tap and it will show "screen on time" and "awake time". If your screen time is really only 30 minutes next thing to look at would be is the phone awake while the screen is off. If so maybe an app or service is not being well behaved...

    Thanks for the help (and very minor ui issue) How much battery time do you get on your phone? I do have a Galaxy Nexus (don’t think the operator matters here) and I get 24 hours with heavy use (lots of WIFI download + app testing + playing 3D game) and the app running along with System Tuner...

    Post 4.03 "Leaked“ Radios CDMA, LTE & Bootloader

    What (how) is the phone really determining signal strength? A couple of days ago I was ready to jump on the "Galaxy Nexus = Poor Signal" bandwagon. Not so much anymore. My home is in a fringe 3G area, I can point to spots in my house where calls will always drop, SMS will fail, etc. It's...

    Post Changes in Update 3.2

    Check out GALAXY TASK 6.2 My negative opinion of the update was not as strong as yours, but I still think the ROM in this thread "TASK650's "GALAXY TASK 6.2"(ANDROID 3.2!!!) WIFI ONLY (11/28)" is about as good as we can get, at least until we see ICS.

    Post [Q] Samsung Account - date of the welcoming 'Notice'?

    Samsung Account Value? I think I observed the same message. The related question I have is if I don't use any of the Samsung hub apps, is there any value to even having a Samsung account? Is there anything that I will miss out on? btw, my guess is no.
