Samsung Galaxy Tab 3 instructions for use. Working with South Korean tablet devices. Correct handling of the device

Every user who has purchased a tablet device from the well-known Samsung corporation immediately asks the question: how to use their device correctly so as not to harm it and use its capabilities to the maximum? How to install and remove memory cards and SIM cards? How to download your favorite games and applications? How to access the Internet? To fully implement your Samsung tablet, the instructions included in the package contain detailed information on its use, but we will convey this information in a more accessible and simpler language.

The main steps in working with a new tablet

Getting started with the device

For the tablet to work successfully, you must first install a SIM card, which the owner received from his mobile operator. To do this, you need to position and fix it in the slot with the golden contacts down.

It is important to know that the availability of certain services depends solely on the telecom operator used by the owner of the tablet device.

Next, you can recharge your tablet, since, as a rule, new devices are not always fully charged. To do this, the owner must connect his gadget using a USB cable to the power adapter. The device may become warm during this process, which is normal. You can determine if the battery is fully charged by the icon that displays this information.

Then a memory card is installed if needed. Different Samsung tablets support different memory card sizes, this information depends on the specific model. To install the card, you need to place it with the correct side in the memory card slot and fix it until it clicks.

Next, the tablet turns on by pressing the power button for a few seconds. When turned on for the first time, the owner simply needs to follow the instructions that appear on the screen. To turn off the gadget, you also need to hold down the power button and select Shutdown.

After turning on the device, the first thing the user sees is the Lock Screen. To get to the main screen, you need to slide the lock image. For example, in the latest versions of Android OS, context keys are located at the bottom of the screen, and access to the main menu is, on the contrary, at the top. The main options for system management are available from it.

Overview of main sections

The Personal Data section allows you to synchronize your device with different services and manipulate Goggle accounts and more. If the owner does not have such an account, he will be asked to create one. One of the important reasons to do this is to be able to download various apps and games from the Android Market. Also in this section you can enable the function of determining your location, or create several accounts. Date and time settings, as well as special features and other interesting functions, are collected in the System section.

Settings menu

In the “Personal Data” section, you can control the tablet’s locking, which can be done in several ways, for example, recognizing the owner’s face, entering a pattern key, or simply scrolling the lock. You can easily unlock the tablet, but if suddenly this is not possible, you can try the following steps:

• Restore backup (if available)
• Use a password recovery service
• Try using unlocking programs (like HiSuite)
• Restore factory settings.

Applying firmware update and root rights

To improve the functionality of his device and to remove system vulnerabilities, the owner can update the gadget's firmware. There are two types of firmware: official and unofficial.

It is important to know that by installing third-party firmware, the user risks permanently damaging his device, so for these purposes it is better to use the official versions released by the Android OS vendor.

To update the firmware, you need to visit the “System updates” section in the settings menu: if there are updates, they will be automatically installed on the device.

Operating system update

To install superuser rights that allow you to make changes to system settings, you need to install the appropriate program and select Root device in it.

The most popular tablet features

Email setup

If you have several email accounts, it is possible to combine them all using a common interface, which makes it easier to synchronize incoming correspondence with the device using automatic configuration.

In general, on Samsung tablets there are two email programs for working with mail: Gmail and Email. The first is for Google accounts, and the second is for everyone else. To add an account, open Applications > Gmail (Email), enter your address and password, and click Next. After assigning an account name, click Finish.

Using the Android Market service

All Samsung tablets are based on the Android OS, and therefore they can purchase about 100 thousand applications in the Android Market (or Play Market) online store. There the user will find applications for every taste, from geolocation services and social network clients to online radio applications. To do this, the owner must log into the Play Market under his account, read and accept the user agreement, select the application he likes and download it to the tablet. After the download is complete, the application icon will appear in the menu, and to open it you just need to click on it.

Reading e-books

For lovers of reading, Samsung tablets provide the opportunity to study thousands of books, magazines, and newspapers. Thus, devices are sometimes able to accommodate an entire library.

E-book application

In order to enjoy reading your favorite book, you need to find an application that is supported by the owner’s telecom operator, download and install it on the device.

Tablets provide their owners with a lot of opportunities using the World Wide Web. To implement these features, you must complete the following steps:

• Activate any of the Internet access methods on your tablet (3G or Wi-Fi)
• Select Internet in the list of applications
• Enter the URL of the desired web page and click Go.

Internet icon in the application list

Voice search for information is also provided. You must follow the previous steps, but then click the icon with a microphone drawn and clearly say the word or phrase that you want to search for. Next, you can select the appropriate search results.

It is important to be aware that downloaded files may contain viruses that can damage your device. Therefore, it is a good idea to use reliable sources for such downloads.

In general, it should be noted that the capabilities of Samsung tablets are practically unlimited, and it is problematic to talk about each of them in one article. The owner of this device can quite successfully cope with this task on his own; you just need to give him a little time to get to know his assistant. The gadgets' interface is intuitive, all functions are simple and easy to use, and most importantly, the possibilities of use are almost endless. Therefore, the difficulties that novice users encounter will disappear over time, and all that remains is pleasant and comfortable communication with a modern mobile device.
