Some versions of the Samsung Galaxy Tab don’t have the Android Market included with it. You can always visit other Android app web sites to pick up apps, but the Android Market makes it so much easier. Trying to live without it is just annoying. You’ll have to download and install it separately. Here is a way to do it using a Windows PC and the Android SDK.
1. Open Settings and select Applications.
2. Check Unknown sources.
3. Download and install the Android SDK. For purposes of this tutorial, we installed the SDK to C:\Android.
5. Download the Android Market APK file to the hard drive of your PC. For purposes of this tutorial, we saved it to the root of C:\. The file should save as com.android.vending.froyo.apk.
6. Attach your Samsung Galaxy Tab to the computer using the included USB cable.
7. Go to Start > Run and type CMD, then press Enter to bring up a command prompt.
8. Type cd c:\android\tools and press Enter.
9. Type adb install C:\com.android.vending.froyo.apk and press Enter.
The Android Market should now install to the Samsung Galaxy Tab successfully. Allow a few minutes for the process to complete.
