Galaxy Tab 2 10.1 backwards compatibility - Galaxy Tab 2 Accessories

Hi everyone,
I just wanted to verify for anyone that might be curious that the USB adapter for the original GT 10.1 works with the GT2 10.1. Also, the keyboard dock is a tight fit but does appear to also work without any issues. I haven't tried an HDMI adapter yet but everything I have read says it is compatible. Can someone else verify?

So the keyboard works? How tight of a fit is it? Just got my 10 today and was wondering about the keyboard.

Unless you already have the original keyboard, I would wait for them to release a version for the 2 10.1. You have to jam it in there pretty hard.
I took my tab back because I got an excellent deal on a prime off of craigslist.

See the original thread. It should have more than enough to show you the way.

That's funny I had an old blackberry cable and tried the same thing. For some reason it would not work for me. So Sunday night I ordered the one from Amazon. It came in today and no more triangle!
I even took it down to see the pin that wasn't soldered (#4). Still wouldn't work.

My original homemade one was just 3 100k and 1 1k 1/4w resisters twisted together in series. Shaped it like a horseshoe in side some tape with the two ends sticking out like 1/8 inch right next to each other but not touching. It was ugly but did the job. I have since ordered one for 2$ also.

Palm Folding Bluetooth Keyboard 3245WW

Hey guys! I just bought a Palm Folding Bluetooth Keyboard for my Note. I thought it would be the perfect companion for my Note especially since I have a case with a kickstand. Do any of you have one? How well does it work? Mine won't get here until next week so...

How much?
I bought it used for $29.99 + $5.00 shipping, they seem to be MUCH more expensive everywhere else on eBay.. funny I believe these were cheaper before the iPad came out and "Tablets" became popular.
The issue with my by keyboard (not palm) is that every time I connect it makes me switch to the Samsung soft keyboard. Total pain.

My Moto BT keyboard switches the phone to Samsung kb also. It must be either 2.3.6 or TW doing it, rather than our hardware. But it is a pia to switch back every time.

have the same one, but branded HP. It works well, i wrote a guide somewhere here (topic titled "just got this for my note!") the only thing is, the note wont stand up in portrait mode of the stand, and to make it work in landscape you have to clip off the two protruding tabs on the flip up stand.

Mine no longer does anything when I press and hold the BT pairing key in the top left; oddly at first at did give me blinkies and my N7 saw it, but had trouble pairing. I've tried numerous batteries and even voltage tested to make sure they were good.Anyone have suggestions?

I know no one has replied, but have you found an answer to your question some where else? I am very interested to know!
No not yet, waiting on a seller on ebay to let me know if the genuine kits he has will fit, or if i am able to return it if it doesnt fit., will let you know what happens.
Cheers
Stephen
Been told that no the dock for the original 7 inch tab or tab plus does not fit the tab2 , great shame as the only other option is the brodit holder, which i am not keen on. By the time i purchase that and the correct bracket for my car the cost will be over £50 which is way too much for a holder i can only use in one vehicle.
What about something like the Arkon Universal mount for you? I use mine once in a while, and it works on my Galaxy Tab and original iPad. Plus, its not tied to one device or one car.

How frequently do people dock their tablet in their car?
I suppose it would make a nice GPS, though i don't have data or teathering available for mine.
I just can't imagine what i would dock a tablet in a car for.

Using the tablet as GPS is great for long trips. Recently found an offline GPS app that is pretty solid (although it is a full download of any map, separated by state in the US, not sure worldwide): NavFree

Zagg Shield Issue ... Prime vs. TF300

Have a quick question for ya all. I'm at Best Buy right now and only have the the Zagg Shields for the TF300 and the TF700 ... will the TF300 fit the Prime?
Yes the TF300 will cover the screen. It does have that extra hole for the front cam or whatever that is but it will work I use it currently for my prime as well.. Stupid Best Buy.

Lol im using a protector from the galaxy tab 10 its slightly smaller than my screen but works none the less. The 300 and 200 and 700 pretty much have identical shaped and sized screens, dont let the sales staff tell you otherwise. You MAY be missing a cutout for a camera or something but in my experience it doesnt make much difference.
Heres is a full body skin I have on order. I bought this brand for my galaxy s2 and its still holding up fairly well.

I usually try to avoid full body shields as dirt and dust usually starts to creep into the wrap making it look incredibly dirty
Ok, so here is a weird update. I have had the Zagg shield on for some time now, is it me, or does it seem to have shrunk? Has anyone else experienced this? Have a look ...

Quality Keyboard Case
I ordered one similar from caseinthebox.com. There was some skepticism about the validity but I paid via PayPal and chose slow boat from china delivery. The keyboard is removable which I liked. I will update once I get it in 10 to 20 days.

Wait up! I bought a case for the Galaxy Tab 3 10.1 when I ordered my Tab Pro 10.1 and the case doesn't work for my Tab Pro 10.1.... So be careful because there's a good chance it will not work...
You may be right though because this one is a leather case with opening on the corners, and the one I purchased was a hard case and covered the corners, so I couldn't get mine to fit into it because of that. From the looks of this one it should work, but better to be safe and take your tablet with you and ask to try it.

i appreciate the link but that is not near the quality i was looking for.
Neither Samsung has the best quality. I bought a flip cover original and had to polished interior. Camera image quality was affected.
