How to associate android tablet with google account?

Q. I just got a new android tablet 8. How do i set mybgoogle account so that it knows i have an android nd will let me buy apps.

A. Ok here is the deal with Google Market. You must be able to go into your phone/tablet (device) settings and add your gmail account. If your device does not have an option to add or sync account. Then you pretty much will not be able to use android market. That is how google has it set up. The main reason for this is the ability to attach payments of purchased items to your cellular provider. I agree it sucks but that is the way it is.

Can an android tablet be a substitute for a laptop?

Q. I was wondering if an Android tablet would be a viable substitute for a laptop? I take a couple of online classes at my college and was wondering if the the Android browser would support a school website.

A. This depends on what you are wanting to use it for. The default browser most likely will not support your schools site but that is not that big of a deal. I would recommend Skyfire for browsing that mimics that of a desktop. As for browsing the schools site the tablet will work fine. Uploading pictures and papers is easier from a tablet than from a laptop in my opinion. However you would not want to use a tablet to compose a paper, or type any lengthy document. So if you want this to replace your desktop you will want an add-on keyboard. (I prefer a bluetooth keyboard so it does not have to be physically tethered to the tablet)

What is a good, inexpensive Android tablet?

Q. I am looking to get an Android tablet. I occasionally see Fry's Electronics sell them (Coby was last brand) for $99. I'd love to get, but want suggestions for some preferred brands and models. Don't need the iPad equivalent of high-end. Just a basic first one.

A. Kindle Fire! Great deal for $199.00, trust me. Try saving a little more...

What android tablets currently are running Ice Cream Sandwich or 4.0?

Q. I am looking for an android tablet that is currently running the newest android software. I am looking for one that might not cost to much but the main deal breaker is what it is running.

A. Few are commercially released with Ice Cream Sandwich but are capable of upgrading to it once its released. Example, Motorola's Xoom or XYBOARD tablet says:

Androidâ�¢ 3.1 (Honeycomb).
Upgradeable to Android 4.0 (Ice Cream Sandwich)

There were rumors that ICS was going to be released on the tablet early this year (2012) but latest rumors now have it at mid-end of 2012 *shrugs*

Original Question

What model of android tablets supports SMS messaging and calls?

Q. I'm finding a tablet that can be used as a phone with SMS messaging and call support like the samsung galaxy tab 7.0 plus...
Is there any other models or brand that has the same features?...
Price is not an issue...I just need info...
Thanks in advance!
Regards!
In addition, I need unlocked versions... :)

A. I can give you two choices ..... new android 4.0 tablets now available. Those tablet are the "iPad killers" and supporting SMS messaging with the "mySMS" application.

- Cube U9GT2 (16GB) ~249$

- ONDA vi40 Elite (16GB) ~289$

Both the Onda VI40 Android 4.0 IPS Capacitive tablet PC and the Cube U9T2 ICS have very similar specifications and features. First is the 9.7" Capacitive multi-touch IPS screen.

Onda made its name way back in 2008 when it released a 4.3" touch screen mp4 player that please called an iPod Touch wannabe or alternative. This model did well, but the marketing and product development of the company went astray.

This is why I was both suprised and happy to be reviewing first 9.7" Android 4.0 tablet PC by Onda, the VI40 Elite Edition Tablet PC. Boasting 9.7-inch 1024 x 768 capacitive multi-touch IPS display it seems to be 5-point touch. It adopts the fastest yet 1.5GHz ARM Cortex-A10 processor with Mali-400 GPU (graphics processor).

The onda VI40 Elite tablet also packs dual cameras, a 1.3 Mega Pixel front-facing camera and a 5.0M pixel rear-facing camera. More the VI40 supports 2160p Super HD video playback.

It has a 6500mAh battery giving you around 4.5 to 5 hours of internet surfing time.

The Cube U9GT2 also has a 9.7" IPS screen but with a more responsive 10-point multi touch screen. The processor is not as fast but will do the job clocking in at 1.2GHz on a Rockchip RK2918 CPU.

In addition to a better screen, the Cube Android 4.0 Tablet also has 16gb of built-in memory compared to Onda's 8gb. The Cube tablet also has larger 8000mah battery for 6 hours of internet surfing or "10 hours music, 4 hours video, 5 hours wifi."

The Cube doesn't have a 5mp camera but it does have dual 2 mega pixel cameras for quality photos and video from front and back.

The Onda VI40 Elite may prove to rule supreme as today's android tablet forum enthusiasts like the cheapest deal, even if the battery only gets an hour less usage from a full charge.

Both have microSD card slots so one could buy a memory card to make up for the 8gb of memory the Onda so dearly misses.

Last thought, the Apple iPad 2 should be wetting its pants now. Both of these tablets are more powerful and have just as responsive capacitive screens. Not to mention extra goodies like dual cameras and open source Ice Cream Sandwich. Yum!

How to register tablet to my google play store?

Q. So, im new with tablets.. I bought a new tablet but it didnt have the google play store pre-installed and i want to get apps but i go to the play store website but my phone is only register, i dont know how to register my tablet

A. you need to flash what's called a GApps package in recovery mode. it's free. if i had the model (even just brand, like nextbook pro) i'd be able to help you.

google signs deals with phone makers for the use of their GApps. i'm not exactly sure why, but on some cheaper tablets, some manufacturers don't sign the contract with google for GApps

here, this is the standard method. it should work.
1. determine the version of Gapps you need ( based on your android version and the screen type of your tablet (probably HDPI or XHDPI).
2. download it from here http://goo.im/gapps/ (you can use the search function to find your device
3. copy the zip file (do not unzip it) to the root (first folder) of your tablet, rename it to update.zip
4. shut the tablet off
5. start the tablet up holding either Power + down, Power + up, or power + up + down.
6. a menu should appear it has to look similar to this http://files.tested.com/uploads/0/1507/20032-3904476201_164d0538a0.jpg
7. choose install update from SD card or apply update.zip, depending on which is available
8. choose the package you copied earlier
9. scroll down to yes, select it.
10. press reboot system now, if everything worked out, you should see "android is upgrading"
11. add your google account to the device.

How do I convince my dad to get me a Nook Tablet instead of a Nook Color?

Q. I intend to compensate him fully for the additional $50 cost that he would be paying for the Color.
Plus, with the 15% coupon and the membership deal, the price for the Tablet is lowered to around $180.
Which is $60 cheaper.
The hardware is just significantly superior, and it has so many more capabilities that suit my purposes. However, he still stands on this, despite the fact that I would be perfectly willing to pay for any additional expenses he would have, if necessary.

A. One option is to get the Nook Color, then purchase online an "N2A" card (about $40) which converts the Nook into an Android tablet. One word of caution: doing this may void the Nook's warranty.

Original Question

Are tablets good for storing and playing music?

Q. I have an iPod touch and I have a Dell computer (yes, they suck lol). I am tired of my computer crashing or something being wrong were my iTunes and iPod cannot update each other. So, I am looking into tablets to see if they are the best deal for my music. What I am asking is are there any tablets that stand out for music? I just mostly want to use it for music so I don't keep losing my songs.

I am not really interested in the iPad (any generation). I have the Samsung Galaxy S2 Skyrocket for a phone and love the Andriod system.

Thank you!

A. I wouldn't use an ipad or ipod as the primary storage media for my music. The main reason is that Apple is pretty draconian regarding what it allows you to do with your media. For example, my music collection got wiped out and I tried to copy the data from my ipod to my computer but Itunes doesn't allow that. It only allow you to sync songs and it doesn't allow you to move things off your device very easily. I love my ipad, but not a music content manager. Android tablets would be better for this because they just look like an external hard drive so you can easily organize your songs and move them back and forth between your pc and your tablet. They also give you more storage capability normally as a lot of them support SD and USB storage expansion whereas with the ipad and ipod you are limited in storage to what you bought it with.

Hope this helps!
