That's my situation. The status bar / buttons disappear, so I hit the physical home button (the N as in Nook button), but the bar is still gone. This was happening on 7.0.3... i just installed 7.1 RC1 and haven't had it happen yet... we'll see.
[Nook Color Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] shumash:
Go to Settings/CyanogenMod settings/Tablet Tweaks, and check to see that you have the "Disable fullscreen" option checked. That prevents apps from overriding the status bar visibility. Additionally, you can setup an "unhide" button in case you accidentally hit the chevron or otherwise lose the Tablet Tweaks status bar.
[Nook Color Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Jiggity Janx:
Because you say "menu bar" and later on say you press the N button and they are still missing I believe you are talking about the ADW menu buttons (the launcher and apps buttons). If that is what you are referrinng to then you should go into ADW settings and uncheck the hidden taskbar option. By default it is checked.
[Nook Color Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] uffal:
can reproduce it on my EVO

I found out how to make the menu disappear, but cannot make it reappear.

I have an EVO 4G (original supersonic) and I am able to make the bottom home menu disappear using a downward swipe. I've done this accidentally quite a few times. (I'm referring to the Phone/Square/World Icons that launch the primary apps)

However, I do not know how to make it come back. I have been able to swipe randomly and get it to reappear, but I do not know what combination actually causes this.

The only way I know how to bring it back for sure, is a reboot. I wish I knew what that swipe combination was to restore the menu
[Nook Color Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] thewaywardgeek013:
By "Menu Bar", do you mean the the Dock where you can access the App Drawer?

If this is it, then you just have to swipe it up. But to just to warn you, it is "VERY HARD" to get the right swipe for it to show again. Trust me, I tried. Best solution would be to disable the "HIDE" Capability of the Dockbar by going into Settings>ADWLauncher>UI Settings Go down to Hidden Dockbar and disable Dockbar.
[Nook Color Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] uffal:
thanks thewaywardgeek013, that worked perfectly. It's almost impossible to find the right settings.
[Thunderbolt General] Rebel908:
So I had this idea of using my BB Buyback on my Thunderbolt to jump to Sprint. However, I eventually was disappointed by the Nexus S 4G's radio issues/4G coverage in my city (Merced, Ca).

My Thunderbolt had been rooted and then unrooted to be able to be sold back to Best Buy. While it was unrooted, it continued to work for a while. After a few hours of tethering one day, the 3G signal just completely disappears. Hard Resets galore but did not fix the problem.

What I failed to realize was that I may have flashed over the wrong radio before the rooting was done.

Now after quite sometime going through Best Buy's insurance program (**** YOU GEEK SQUAD) my phone is headed home.

I just want to ask was it possible that the radio was wrong and I could have had this situation resolved quickly?
[Thunderbolt General] SleepinInCA:
Just download the correct radio to your sd card. Reflash the new radio. Should be fine. As for it dropping out while working.....it is more likely that service dropped in your area. This happened frequently in the days leading up to 4g here (Fresno). If it drops....don't panic. Just enter airplane mode for about a min and then exit it. Bam! you will be good again.

Hope this helps!

~Sleepin

*EDIT-afterthought-*

Some people have had issues with certain tethering apps as well. They have reported having to reset their radios after a signal loss while tethering. This may have effected you.....no way to be sure. But if you had signal....it would have to be the correct radio. Otherwise you never would have had a tower signal to begin with.

[Eee Pad Transformer General] midnight93933:
This is the wrong place to post this, but I trust the commmunity here. My left speaker on my transformer blew out. I bought it from newegg less than 30 days ago and was wondering what steps I should take. Also, I looked at my order reciept and it said I was invalid for a replacement or refund by there automatic online thing. So I was wondering what, if any, of you guys did that returned to Newegg.
[Eee Pad Transformer General] gee one:
You could try contacting ASUS for service. Good luck!
[Eee Pad Transformer General] slopokdave:
Common sense tells me to start with a phone call to New Egg, if you are still within their return/exchange policy.

....But that's just me.
[Eee Pad Transformer General] sanziosan:
Goto your new egg account and file an RMA for a replacement.

They give you a shipping label just rebox it and use the label

and tape the RMA # they give u to the outside the box. Wait a week

To send it back and wait maybe another week before u finally

get another one.

Im in the middle of this process and man does it suck waiting

It took me 1 week after i order it for it to arrive, 1 week to send

it back after finding out part of the screen dont work. And hopefully

this week ill finally get another one... it just sucks that theres no

best buy in my area so new egg is my only option, if there were a best

buy i could probably replace it in one day..
[Eee Pad Transformer General] midnight93933:
Yeah. When I ordered mine newegg was the only one who had it. Then two hours later I gota email from best buy saying they got them instock, and I have one five minutes from my house. Ughh, did you have to email them or call them to get the rma label?
[Eee Pad Transformer General] walkamongus:
Just call them. They will do an advance RMA for you and ship out your replacement immediately. You just have to give them a credit card that they will charge if you don't send back your old one within a certain time period.
[Eee Pad Transformer General] sanziosan:
You don't have to email or call to get the rma just goto your new egg profile and you can get one
[Nook Color Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Imbroglio:
I have spent the last week reading and searching the forums in an attempt to find out how to be able to access and use the empty space left on a CM7 boot sd. Some of the posts were confusing and others seemed to be targeted to those who are already very familiar with the file structures of these systems. The only paritioning experience I have is dividing a boot drive before putting on XP. I am using a Sandisk 8gb and it looks like there is about 5 gig free. Win XP is the os I am running.

So the questions I have are:

1) In simple terms, exactly what has to be done to a boot CM7 SD card to be able to use the empty space for books, mp3, etc? On the recommendations I read in different threads, I downloaded easus partition master, gnome partition editor, and minitool partition wizard. They all pretty much do the same of being able to display the 4 partitions, but what do with the programs then?

In the near future I would like to get a 16g or 32g and wouldn't want all of that space going to waste.

2) Is it possible to have it so that the NC stock boot can read the books downloaded in CM7? I have not been able to find where CM7 stores books.

Thanks to all whose work helped me get to this point. The NC is a fascinating piece of hardware.
[Nook Color Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Larry94:
Hey! Using the remaining storage on your SD card is quite easy. Just download and install this program on your NC. http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=952456 open the program and select the 4th partition to be mounted. Now when you plug your nook into the PC, the partition which holds media etc. Will be mounted ;) you can now transfer mp3's, roms for Emulators etc.

As for #2, Your cm7 books should be on the previously mentioned partition, which is the 4th.
[Nook Color Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] stolenmoment:
5G sounds about right for the /sdcard partition. The rest of the partitions on an 8G card are /boot, /system, and /data. Use Root Explorer to poke around; you can tell when you jump partitions because the used/free numbers at the top will change.

/boot is not normally mounted.

The root filesystem is in-memory and is initialized from /boot/uRamdisk by default.

The original instructions in the size-agnostic install thread detail what happens to various sizes of card; for anything above 2G /sdcard gets all the extra.

Any apps that use /sdcard for storage will use this space. App-specific config data and small databases are generally in /data unless instructed otherwise (I'm using less than 300M of my /data partition as yet). The app info or permissions will often give clues; if the permission for "read and write SD card" is requested or required, the app can or must use this space. Some apps (like BeyondPod) will always use /sdcard.

So, your space isn't wasted, it's just unused until you fill it.

The CM7 SD boot cleverly uses the built-in memory for both /cache and (at least some) media storage; the "media" stock partition pre-1.2 is mounted as /emmc; I don't know how the SD boot uses the newer partitions. The NC app stores books in "/emmc/B&N Downloads/Books" and magazines in ".../Magazines". You can move your music files to "/emmc/My Files/Music" and the stock music player will automagically find them there, freeing up even more space in your SD. This partition is mounted the same for emmc-booted NCs, making an easier transition if you get to that point (it took me months to decide to go ahead and do it, and I'm happy with the choice). Other apps may look there, or can be told to look there, but since it's a new-ish Android "feature" (convention, really), it's not universal.

When you use USB mounting by plugging your charger cable into your PC's USB socket, by default the two "drives" mounted are /sdcard (named "CM7 SDCARD") and /emmc ("MyNookColor"), so you can use your PC to explore, backup, and move files back & forth to experiment. Both partitions are FAT32, so all PCs should be able to handle them. Remember to tell the PC to unmount them in software before unplugging the cable, like any thumb drive.

It is, isn't it? I haven't regretted buying one for a minute.
[Nook Color Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Imbroglio:
Thank you for posting the reply on the APP nook/cm7 file system.

Unfortunately, it still doesn't address HOW to sideload (DRAG AND DROP) books on the utilizing the empty portion of a CM7 SD card.

1. I put the SD card into an reader.

2. Windows xp detects the card.

3. I pull up windows explorer.

4. It only displays the "root" directory. Yes, I can drag and drop into the "my documents" folder but this partition only contains about 300 meg total storage.

5. It does not display the other partitions, thus I cannot drag and drop anything into the 5g partition.

Yes, I can drag and drop on the NC onboard storage, but not the CM7 SD card. Is the remaining 5 gigs only allocated for APP storage?

Now after 2 weeks searching this site and seeing numerous recommendations for software but not what to do with it or cryptic posts assuming that one already is very familiar with the android os, I am pulling my hair out over this. The only post I found that directly and simply addressed the issue requires that I reformat the SD with SDformatter to allow for full storage access but then I have install CM7 all over again.

I downloaded NookColorUMS-0.3b.apk using Opera, but that is all it did. I had to search again and it mentioned something about ADB (no idea what that is) which had to be installed. Aparently that doesn't work alone and it lead to another link to more required software - the Android SDK and then came a long list of more steps just to install that.

Hopefully, if I ever figure this out, I will write a simple to understand post that new NC CM7 people like me can understand.
[Nook Color Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] stolenmoment:
Try this: unplug the charger cable from the "n"-shaped brick. Plug the cable into a USB port on your computer. Plug the other end into the NC as usual.

Tap the button(s) that pop up on the NC to allow USB mounting.

Two new drives show up on the PC. These are /emmc and /sdcard, but they'll have different names on the PC. Use Windoze Explorer to drag and drop. I might suggest /sdcard/download as a first try, but feel free to drop copies in multiple directories in order to experiment. Adobe Reader looks all over for its docs.

When you're done, click on the PC tray thing to release BOTH drives from the PC.

Poke around with your reader to find these files. Some readers might be better at looking around than others.

Let us know how you get along!
[Nook Color Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] extremepizza:
So once you download the NookColorUMS.apk, use the file explorer on your nook, go to the 'download' folder and click on this file. It will open up and ask you if you can install the program. Click yes and let it install.

When you are done with that, open the program and mount the partition of interest(i think its 4 as a previous poster stated). Now when you plug your nook into your computer that partition will mount. There should be 4 partitions if you are using the CM7 on SD card.

You should be able to now drag and drop files on that partition. Just make sure you unmount properly as I have run into problems if you just unplug it.

[Nook Color Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kwyrt:
I am using Racks Phiremod/Honeycomb dual boot image but I don't see why this method would not work for your install. Rather than messing with mounting partitions and all that whenever I want to put something on the SD Card partition I will just plug my nook into the computer, copy and paste whatever file I need onto the nook's internal memory, and then use root explorer to cut and paste the file from the internal memory to the SD Card partition.

my emmc and sd card both show up and writable drives. I use stuff that I need faster access to in there, since the mount time is faster than the SD card.
[Galaxy Tab Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Lordrdx666:
Just got the 16GB Tab a few days ago...

Well after scouring the forums for all sorts of info, the amount of research done on the Tab by you people is amazing :) ........ and still searching for more info day by day....

I wish to know which version of gingerbread is the "most stable one" ??

The asian ones which have been recently released ? Or the latest european firmware ?

Because I wish to run a stock samsung's own GB version before straightaway going in for a custom ROM like Overcome... :)

Also if I want the closest stock ROM based experience should I go for -

[ROM/Kernel][GSM][Android 2.3.3] ROM based DXJPE (build 23 June) by DiP7 ???

ANother newbish question will be -

If I flash a ROM and install the provided kernel with it ? Do I need to also flash a new modem file via ODIN ? or the original file stays there ?

And do I need OCLF after installing a stock/custom GB based ROM just for some speed improvements and/or does the EXT2 file system conversion give boost ? (because OCLF in my Galaxy S SL i9003 really did make overall performance better) Also the lagfix to be applied is V1+ right ? or do I also go for applying V2 lagfix in OCLF?

Thanks for reading all this and I would love to hear your ideas over these questions ....
[Galaxy Tab Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] adi6262:
No , no need to for the modem file after flashing rom.

I see you are in India ( me too ) so Asian rom will be better .

No need of lagfix and oc overcome is very smooth .

P.S :If you flash Asian GB please tell whether it contains Indian languages .
[Galaxy Tab Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rangercaptain:
A good stock GB rom choice is JQ1 because it has the proper, safe bootloaders, and can be easily rooted using the Chainfire CF-Root v3.3 kernel.

From there you can go in any direction.

Please apologize if someone answered these questions before but I'm new user.

[XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] FormBee:
I'm gonna assume you mean root when you say flash.

1. Advantage of root: you can delete stock apps like timescape or that captive thingmy. This will speed up the frankly sluggish stock ROM. You can also flash xrecovery and a new ROM.

2. Disadvantage of root: Root voids warranty. Although you can unroot with SEUS at any time, so no real disadvantage.

3. Once you are rooted and have flashed xrecovery you can download an upgrade and use xrecovery to upgrade your phone.

You would need to install xRecovery from the flashtool (before that you would have to allow root permission from the computer by clicking 'Check Root' on flashtool)

If you want everything working apart from Adobe Flash, then EW's 2.1 is recommended.
