Which galaxy tab has the least amount of bloatware?
You can remove all the bloatware you want by rooting and using root explorer, just be careful
Well I preferably want to know about the use versions of the tab but if the European versions are than please let me know or is it just better to root the tab thanks
Unknown yeah it figured but I was just curious out of the 4th carriers which one had the least..... I was just curious to know
Yeah sorry my xda app is really annoying takes five minutes to let me post again and SwiftKey is annoying sometimes when it auto corrected but yeah it was just curious out if the four carriers which galaxy tab has the least amount of bloatware and is it worth rooting the tab.... was also curious about the lag you get from these samsung galaxy devices sometimes..... my vibrant was really slow sometimes

didn't get any with mine. The wares it did come with, like the thinkfree app and nova game were welcomed by me!
I have the sprint tab, came with sprint hotspot and some kind of sprint account manager so nothing too bad like I've seen on other devices

I'm pretty sure the Verizon Tab has the most bloatware

None came on mine that arrived today. It was sim free and just had the default samsung stuff I assume.
Does rooting void my warrantee?
Sent from my GT-P1000 using XDA App
Yes rooting will void your warranty.

And can it be put back to a factory default without them knowing?
Sent from my GT-P1000 using XDA App
Yes it can. Use z4root from the market to root and it has an option to unroot.

I just got my galaxy tab and seems that a lot of the apps don't want to run in full screen. My HTC hd2 running android has an option to make them fit the screen. Is there any way to make this happen on my tab?And

I don't have the "samsung Apps" app. I am rooted I even did a factory refresh. Can I downloaded it? Could not find on Samsung site. Thanks.

Google I/O tab ?
if not check here
Unless there's some hidden features that I don't know about, I would say the Samsung App" app is pretty useless. It shows some pretty lame looking apps that you can easily find on Android market. Don't worry, you're not missing anything.
Agreed Samsung apps is terrible

Have never used it...I believe you can call a person with the same device..while on the call..you both hit the chat an whola...I could be wrong...sounds good though
Anyone..rebuttal?
I have that option as well. Doesn't work for me. I've only tried calling through a few different carriers, one AT&T (stock GS3) the other being Verizon (HTC DNA, custom ROM unknown which one). Both failed to call after what seemed like an attempt. I'm on Golden Eye 3.0 with KT kernel.

My best guess is it is the SAME as when I ran custom ROMs on previous Galaxy Series phones with ported from international series firmware. We would have the video call button but ATT doesn't allow video calling so it never worked. It is something that ATT blocks so it will never work. You can find threads in the Galaxy S2 I777 threads and Galaxy S1 Captivate threads on how to remove the video call icon from the .apk's and resize the layout so it doesn't have the icons out of shape/place. Unfortunately until ATT let's us call over data it will never work.

Unfortunately since it is NOT built into our phones firmware automatically (removed/changed thanks to ATT firmware) we could not use the same tactics the iPhone people used and have it cleared for use.
But there are other apps that we can use from the play store and have video over cellular signal. But the catch is you have to be rooted and use something like gTalk enabler or change a setting in the build.prop for it to work. You can try apps like Google Talk/Hangouts, Skype, Tango for video calling over the cell signal. I have used Google Talk and Tango.

What wifi hotspot app do you use for your Galaxy S4?
Check out my thread from the other day. I'm not sure if there is an actual app amymore...I use to use barnicle but can seem to find it. Try the es file explore method, it works...as long as you're rooted.

Looking around
I come from HTC to a great Samsung G 4 and HTC was hard at times, but it taught me a lot about android. Don't know if anyone thought of this and i think i actually found what is being used.. Samsung Kies is able to restore factory firmware onto your SG4 by using the computer as a terminal, sorta like an htc ruu would do.. even downloads the info/firmware to your computer (including mf3) from what I've readhttp://www.samsung.com/us/support/owners/product/SGH-I337ZKAATT
Wonder if thats how it is because you don't need to be a rocket scientist to work at best buy....
Hey guys..
I just got an ad on my note 4 in the pull-down tray that says if I install knox I can be eligible to win a note 4? Only thing is I'm running firekat v4, so there is no knox to be found...
...is anybody else experiencing Samsung advertisements on their devices? Please don't tell me they're going to start using the notification pull-down tray as a platform to start advertising Samsung products..
Negative man. Has to be a bogus push ad from an app you installed.

I received it as well.
My bet is you got some spam on your phone. No way Samsung would push that out the phone comes with Knox installed.
Sent from my SM-N910T using XDA Free mobile app
Lol... You should stop downloading sketchy apps because they will NEVER push messages like that.
a third party dodgy app wouldn't make much sense. the ad was way too targeted to be a third party app. it knew i had a note 4 and i didnt have knox installed. what 3rd party ad app would be that specific? Plus I have adblock on the phone since day 1.
I'm 99% sure the ad (or "promo" or whatever) came from samsung. I'm assuming its from their galaxy store. It looked too professional to be a third party ad. The ad was a big, bright image of the note 4 and note edge, and the link took you directly to samsungs website without a referral number at the end.
@ShrekOpher knox isnt installed by default, the installer apk is baked into touchwiz. Knox creates a virtual partition in your sd card to store secure apps. If you don't want that (like 90% of people) you would be losing space on the sd card for no reason. You have to run knox for it to go through setup.
I'm running fire kat too, I'm pretty sure it's due to Samsung push services still being present in this ROM.

im on fkv4 as well. No knox adds though and i stillhave samsung push service installed. I did do debloating on side though.
I got the same ad yesterday but I believe it was pushed by T-Mobile.
Well i aint running yalls rom, and i didn't receive it lol.
frankly even if it was samsung, it make no sense. why make such an advertisement on a phone the user already have
I have received this, a coworker on an S4 has as well.

It is probably the Samsung app store, I'll try to take a screen shot if it comes up again, then freeze or remove it and see if is the culprit.

If you long press on the ad and click on "App Info" it should tell you exactly which app is sending you those notifications. If it's an app you actually use you can just hit disable notifications from there and you won't be bothered any more.
The app is an app that separates your phone from your work phone of you use your phone from work the app is on the play store
The question here is not what Knox is, but where the advertisement for it is coming from.
