Hi there,

I just purchased my first Android device (well, technically it's the second one but the one I had before was broken so I ordered this one the same day instead) a few days ago. I've been using Blackberry OS and iOS devices so I'm a bit confused by some things available / not available in Android.

So, first things first: my tablet is a P3110, Galaxy Tab 2.0 7" and it's running the pre-installed version of Android, so 4.1.1.

I was able to answer most of my questions through Google but then again I have some more complicated questions and hope I'll be able to find answers on here.

• How do I launch apps automatically when I start the system? I.e. Skype.
• Will the tablet automatically go into energy conservation mode when I lock the screen?
• How can I take screenshots? I tried like 5 or 6 shortcuts I found on Google and the "Screenshot Ultimate" app but nothing worked.
• How can I rename files / folders through the file manager? All I could do was copy the folder / file.
• How can I change the language in Google Currents? I'm living in France but like to read English / German newspapers. I tried the "Search for more" button but it didn't bring up any results.

That's all I can think for now, thanks for your replies.

 

1) Thanks - that's for one app only but it's good enough for Skype!
2) Any ideas which one? I'd hate to go through several ones and play trial & error especially since I don't want to root the device.
3) Doesn't work, I found that shortcut through Google. All shortcuts like volume up + power etc. are not working either.
Edit 3) I just found another one, POWER + VOLUME DOWN. It's necessary to press them at the exact same time, even if the first one is being pressed a split second earlier it won't work.
4) AnciusD cleared that up, my bad - it's indeed in the options tab.
5) Just found it, it's not in the settings but the "Customize" button in the feed itself.

1) Yes, mine does as well - I was just curious if it'll disable WiFi as well if I do. The iPhone does, for example. Not a biggie anyway.
2) It's not there, I checked that before and again just now. All I can change there is

• Background
• Brightness
• Screen Timeout
• Font Type
• Font Size
• Show Battery In %

3) Indeed, I must be blind - stupid question, sorry.

I've marked open questions in red, maybe someone has an idea how to fix this. Thank you guys so much.
