[LG Optimus 2x] lolozaur:
Happened to me a few times on the CM7 Kang, tegra games showed "not compatible" from the phones android market. But after i browsed the Android Market from my PC (with my google account signed in) i could just click Install from the webpage and it pushed the installation to my phone.

Short version : phone market shows not compatible, PC market allows you to install.

if you don't have a usb cable or it's hard to connect your phone to the PC, just use DropBox and send files from your pc to your phone over WiFi. There are also other easy solutions like phone in WiFi FTP server and you just upload files to it. But again, if you don't have a usb cable, you need a WiFi network or good data plan :)
[LG Optimus 2x] EclipsedPal:
Oh, thanks guys, but I solved my "problem"... I had an old version of the drivers installed :p Now I can connect the phone through usb :D

For the game... I'll try the "install" via my pc...

Oh, I was nearly forgetting... the weird thing that I noticed is that in the settings menu the processor is "ARMv7 rev 0(v7I)" but the phone is equipped with a Cortex A9... maybe that is the problem?
[LG Optimus 2x] lolozaur:
ARM V7 and Cortex A9 are not the same thing :) i'd recommend you check you pages 6-9 http://www.nvidia.com/docs/IO/90715/Tegra_Multiprocessor_Architecture_white_paper_Final_v1.1.pdf. That really cleared up a lot of stuff for me :)
[LG Optimus 2x] EclipsedPal:
eh, I know ;)

So that can actually be the problem! But I guess it's only a matter of naming, because tegra games play properly, if they were using the ARM7... I don't even want to think about it! :p

btw, the "download through the website" worked! thank you!

[Atrix 4G General] pyfviperx:
Hello, so my atrix was perfect like 2 hours ago. I ad neutrinos rom gt+ on it for like 2 days days and everything was perfect. But ! well i was playing a bit with it and deleted some stuff in the android folder of my internal sd, it was only real racing 2 game files and some other stuff. I played some more with it and my screen started flashing strangely and doing weird stuff. I closed the screen, i opened back same thing. The phone shutted down itself. I tried rebooting and now im stuck at the red m logo with unlocked in the top left corner. i tried to access recovery by doing a battery pull and rebooting but i dont have access to the little menu. Anybody can help me fix this?
[Atrix 4G General] Beakfire:
Silly question but are you holding down the volume down rocker button during boot? Do you get the prompt for fastboot, android recovery, etc ?

If it pops up scroll down using volume down to android recovery and hit the volume up to select it.

Should be able to fix it from there.
[Atrix 4G General] pyfviperx:
When i hold down volume down button there is absolutely no prompt pf any kind =\ i already installed some stuff with cwm and i had to go through there, but now i have nooothing =(
[Atrix 4G General] Climber Ty:
Did you update to the latest firmware? If so it might be wise to see about reflashing that same firmware again with RSD. It's a pain in the arse and you might have to do it a few times to get it to work right, but it is possible. I had the latest build CM7 on my atrix and I reflashed to stock just to see if I could.

I'm not kidding though when I say it's a painful process, the phone might get stuck in a boot loop (where it goes to the M Dual Core logo and just reboots). If that happens you're still okay cause you can just keep reflashing the stock .sbf file till it takes (just don't downgrade).

Your call though.
[Atrix 4G General] pyfviperx:
Meh today its completely dead, i checked it today and all ihave is green led =(

Edit: Plugged it in wall charge instead of computer, back to M logo =(
[Atrix 4G General] CaelanT:
Unlocked bootloader so best not to use RSD. Can you get fastboot? Reboot and hold volume up instead of down.
[Atrix 4G General] pyfviperx:
Just tried, my battery is completely dead. So i pressed power and volume up then i putted battery in ( at this point i still didnt had any boot) and i plugged in my usb charger, nooothing... Just the red m logo and the nice little unlocked in the top left corner...
[Atrix 4G General] CaelanT:
Find a friend with an Atrix and use their phone to charge your battery, or try going into an AT&T store and asking if you can charge it there on a display phone.
[Atrix 4G General] pyfviperx:
Im in canada =/ but one of my friend got an atrix, ill charge the battery with his phone BUT back when my battery was still charged i still couldnt get to fastboot/recovery power+up and power+down didnt worked neither. Is it hard bricked?
[Atrix 4G General] pyfviperx:
Il also ordered stuff to make a motorola factory cable, think i will be able to do anything with this?
[Atrix 4G General] pyfviperx:
Still seeking help guys! I loved my atrix please help me to recover it :/
[Atrix 4G General] Alcapone263:
Well, if you can't get into either recovery, fastboot, or rsd mode you won't be able to fix it. Make sure you're pressing the volume down button as you boot the phone, and keep it held down until the options come up.

[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] Jaxellis:
So I uninstalled the stock music app and I was wondering how to install it back on to the device?

I got the com.htc.music.apk from system/app/ but I have no idea on how to install it back onto the device?

Ive tried plain old install then adb and both had no success... Can anyone help me and my noobness at this?
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] megatronisabeast:
Download root explorer, I am assuming you have root. Next locate what folder the file is in. Make sure you have read write privileges by clicking the button art the top of the program. Long press the apk file, select copy or cut, etc. Then find the system folder, go in to it, find apps, go in to it, and place your file here. That should work.
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] BrandonBaskin:
HTCMusic.apk [Stock HTC Vivid]

Here you go bud,

Simply use "File Manager" or another file system app from the market to install the apk files to /system/app. Then reboot.

Be sure to have root and set permissions to match all other items in /system/apps. Also be sure to erase what ever current HTCMusic.apk you currently have in the folder.

Good luck! :)
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] Jaxellis:
Tried no luck

Thank you though

Ill try it now! Thanks!

Edit: Worked! Thanks so much!

[TouchPad Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] vvilliamm:
Well I realized the 10inch tablet is kinda.. a overkill.. and doesn't fit my needs for portability. Im planning to sell it but i dont know how much is it worth?

Hp Touchpad 32gb

Hp custom fit Case modded with velcro flap to close cover

Hp touchstone

Skinomi Screen protector on it + a brand new one if buyer wants to apply another one

+ 4 brand new clear overstock touchpad screen protectors

Hp usb charger

The serial warranty shows its till aug 2012

how much is this worth now on the market like craigslist.

I used it for about 6 hrs mostly installing preware, tweaks, andriod, 3 movies.

Thank you
[TouchPad Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] danknee:
$230+ for the device. $30 for the touchstone.
[TouchPad Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] viny2cool:
i think best way to sell it is to put it on the auction on ebay.....u will easily get the good price...but i agree with the above poster...its going anywhere between 230-300.....

sell it before those cheap ICS tablets comes out...
[TouchPad Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ponyboy82:
Above sounds about right. If you wouldn't mind, I'd be interested in seeing how you modded the case.
[TouchPad Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] vvilliamm:
um ok
[TouchPad Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nivlac978:
I like my touchpad but that new transformer looks very appealing. You could get a big upgrade pretty much for free.
[TouchPad Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] danknee:
How? Even $300 is only half way there. Plus they are having serious range issues due to the casing with WIFI and GPS. That and Asus has already leaked that they are releasing a newer version in a few months. I would wait for that.
[TouchPad Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nivlac978:
The new 7 inch transformer prime is 250. HD screen, tegra 3. I don't know when it comes out though.
[TouchPad Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ponyboy82:
Thanks, that looks really clean. I've been wanting to do something like this myself but wasn't sure what the best way to arrange everything was. I can't understand why HP didn't just put $0.25 worth of velcro or a magnet on this thing themselves.

Good luck selling your TP. I have a Nook Color with CM7 and love the form factor. It feels a lot more portable than just 3" smaller because it also has a 16x9 aspect ratio vs 4x3. The performance probably doesn't measure up to the TP or other tablets you can get now, but I still love it with CM7 and overclocked to 1200mhz. You can find refurb's for as low as $120 or so from time to time, and that will probably keep dropping.
[Nook Color General] votinh:
Great!

It's very detail but some miss ;)

If you put all 4 .zip files into ONE bootable CwMR uSD, step 9 you remove the uSD, insert the new one in, assuming it is blank then jump to step 14, you wont have the format file if you not re-insert the first usd back.

Also, flashing CwM into eMMC very convenience, yes, but it is a pain if you want to go back to stock ROM. I always preferred boot into CwM R via a bootable uSD card.

Your note in step 15, I personally do not believe it is 100% true. In my case, without an external uSD card plugged in, Aldiko Reader won't work. And yes, my system set up is like what you said.
[Nook Color General] mr72:
Thanks, I updated it. Maybe didn't catch everything.

IMHO, if you have reservations and think you might want to go back to the stock ROM, then my instructions above are not for you.

I have not tried Aldiko but I have probably 100 other apps and none of them require the SD to be installed. IIRC Aldiko does require you to tell it where the library is located; maybe this is the problem? I don't remember.

I switched to Moon+ Reader for my books, which I wholeheartedly recommend over Aldiko. I found Aldiko was crashing and causing my whole NC to crash/spontaneously reboot, etc., when you leave it running in the background for a long time. I think Aldiko likely has a memory leak.

While I am talking about app recommendations, I also suggested Go Launcher EX, which I really like. It feels faster and is more configurable in ways that improve responsiveness for my tastes compared to ADW. I have some theme preferences that I could share, which I think are optimal for the NC given the screen size, but I have found that most other people I know who are over 30 tend to think my settings for screen sizes of icons and controls are too small, so I didn't bother. Normal Tablet Tweaks and the default CM7 setup may be ok for you. I do prefer Dolphin HD browser over the stock browser, and I also tried Maxthon, Firefox Mobile, and Opera Mobile as well as Opera Mini. I like features of all of them, but on balance Dolphin HD is the winner.
[Nook Color General] Benzoman:
I've tried a few of the new posts about returning to stock ROM and found it was really easy myself. YMMV
[Nook Color General] insz:
Thanks for the guide mr72.

The one thing I'd recommend to people who haven't done the cpu frequency / voltage tweaks before is to set it and test it out for a while without making it set on boot. The frequency settings are quite safe / standard, but the voltage settings vary a little more from person to person. If you've used it that way for a few hours without issue, then make it set on reboot.
[Nook Color General] mr72:
Good point.

Also note, my settings are quite conservative. I have run them much lower and the NC was still stable, for at least a few hours. However, I figured I'd err on the side of stability.
[Nook Color General] MISRy:
Also note the impact screen brightness will have on battery life. While it may be second nature for some of us to turn down the brightness we might want to point out that it is the single biggest drain on the battery,

[Nook Color General] MonkeyGrass:
Nice work! I just updated Nook Tweaks with those settings. I updated to the SKANG RC-2 Mirage and so far the Nook is much speedier than stock CM7 RC1.

Will post back after I test these settings a bit.
[Nook Color General] mr72:
That's true. Mine is normally about 40%. However, in my e-reader app (Moon+) I tend to adjust it to about 15-20% when reading with the lights on, and about 6% when reading in the dark. But the whole screen is mostly white so this is really a worst-case battery drain app for screen usage.

I managed to watch HD movies with wifi enabled but not streaming for 7 hours and the battery was maybe 30% afterward. So I think it has 10 hours of movies in it. With wifi disabled, it is better.
[Nook Color General] votinh:
Back to your "previously step 15", which probably a step 17 now, external uSD related. I just glanced through one of my previous post that talking about the requirement of an external uSD.

Can you do a quick test? Remove uSD off your NC, then capture the screenshot using the built-in feature (press and hold power button to bring up the menu).

See if it let you save the image or not.
[Nook Color General] mr72:
Next time I have my SD card removed, I can try that. I'm not going to do it today. But trust me, it works just fine. The Android OS doesn't know there is no physical SD. You just have to make sure the internal partition is mounted at /sdcard. No part of Android OS can write to the partition without going through that mountpoint.

[Nook Color General] mateorod:
I've seen votinh talk about not wanting to install CWR to emmc, and have wondered why. I kinda just assumed it was some ethical dilemma concerning the warranty. It is pretty easy to wipe, in my experience at least.

One note to mr72. The V6 supercharger script is used to change the minfree values, and locking home in memory can conflict with its operation and cause lag. If you run the script in a terminal you can see it explained right beneath the script’s 17 option menu.

Just a note.
[Nook Color General] votinh:
Maybe because I'm a bit of paranoid but since joining the forum and helping others, the most itchy issue that I've seen so far is restoring back to stock and a lot of people suffering the hiccup due to CwMR flashed into eMMC using ROM Manager.

In order to get out of it, they have to perform 8-boot ??? or whatever it is.

While w/o CwMR installed in eMMC, restore back to stock is just simply as re-flash a ROM.

Again, NOT ALL people hit the head-scratching issue but some did.
[Nook Color General] OrganizedFellow:
hhmm ... I wonder how this setup would work on ICS?
[Nook Color General] mr72:
Once we get fully-functional, stable builds of ICS then I am sure I will do the same kinds of experiments as I have with CM7+ and wind up with a similar set of recommended tweaks and settings, if I have success running ICS and don't go back.
[Nook Color General] mr72:
FYI, regarding battery life:

I got a PM asking for a little more detail. I am getting >12 hours of battery with the screen on while reading ebooks. This was on a series of flights overseas wherein I used the NC with Moon+ Reader, and wifi disabled.

I just got finished watching a movie for pretty much right at an hour, with wifi enabled, here at my house. MX Video Player, a DVD-rip of a movie, with the brightness on about "3" (set on MX Player). Battery went from 91% when I started to 80%. If it is linear, that's 9 hours of battery watching movies.

IMHO, this is pretty great. And it matches my rough experience from the previous experience watching movies.

Of note:

in MX Player, XviD movies play far better and consume less battery than x264. I got more like 15% per hour with x264 (BRrip, 720p) and frequently had to resync the audio and video. And also I have switched to the InteractiveX frequency scheduling, using the "SW Fast" decoder for MX Video Player, as an experiment to see if it improves video playback (it doesn't). But it doesn't seem to adversely affect battery life.
[Nook Color General] slickie88:
@mr72

I've been using Go Lancher EX on my CM7.2 NC (and Galaxy S2) and prefer it to AWD EX's features and performance. You mentioned earlier that you had some GO-specific tweaks that you'd be willing to share. I'd love to see how they compare with mine if you're still willing.

Thanks!
[Nook Color General] ididitforthenookie:
I just installed to and am running CM 7.2 from an SD card. Last night I full charged and today I noticed that my battery says that its at 15%, but the voltage is at 3693 mV. I know the max charge is around ~4200 mV, so the percentage seems very low considering the voltage value. Anyone help?
[Nook Color General] OrganizedFellow:
IMPRESSIVE battery life!

Easily 10-12+ hours of Netflix, Grooveshark streaming. A few more hours of Angry Birds and Where's My Water.

After all that, it still has about 15-20% battery.

As compared to my LG G2X. With that similar usage, it would be dead within 10 hours.
[Nook Color General] tonyp:
Thank you very much for this guide - I esp. like the OC and UV explanation.

Why exactly is it "worth it"? I'm currently on 1GB data and 5GB media (old stock partitions) - and I'm not sure if I should go through the hazzle and change that as I can't see a real advantage of the changed layout. Does anyone have an idea?
[Nook Color General] bobstro:
I've looked at the effort to repartition versus the cost of a $15 SD card, and have gone with the latter. For all the tweaks and tuning, repartitioning isn't going to gain me anything particularly important. I don't dual-boot, however. I've seen similar methods that then allow the internal partition to be presented as an SD card, that I suppose might be more important for dual-booters.
[Nook Color General] mr72:
The advantages of repartitioning to the 4+2GB configuration and doing the emmc-to-SD re-mount are:

1. 4GB of storage space for apps, vs. 1G stock

2. All temp storage and app storage that normally winds up on the SD is written to internal memory instead. This gives you a couple of major advantages. For example, you don't have to wait for the SD card to mount before you can use apps that require SD storage space. Also, you do not have to actually have an SD card in the slot in order to use these apps.

3. The biggest reason of all: your SD card can be "clean". No junk, temp files, downloads, etc. on it. Just the media you put on there on purpose. This makes it possible to have multiple SD cards with different content (say one for music, one for movies, etc.), remove your SD card and put content on it from a USB-SD device directly from your computer (faster!), etc.

Now, I consider the repartitioning important as well as the swapping of SD and emmc in the mountpoints as a total package.

YMMV, maybe you don't want to do it this way, etc.

BTW, I also prefer to swap my "n" button ("Home") and the power button. I find it is much more convenient to put to sleep and wake up the NC with the "n" button, and almost never do I need a hardware "home" button since it is there on the task bar. So I just do these tweaks because for me, they improve utility of the NC. Maybe they will improve it for you as well.
[Nook Color General] pdanders:
repartitioning is very easy. Just download the 2 zips and put them on your SDCard. Reboot to Clockwork recovery and do a nandroid backup.

Run the repartition script.. go into the advanced menu and reboot recovery

Run the format script

Do a nandroid restore.

That's it.. I did it last night and it was a piece of cake
[Nook Color General] tonyp:
Thanks for the answer - but I still don't get the advantage. I'm using the SD/emmc swap for quite some time now - but without repartitioning. I have lots of apps (and games) installed but didn't run short on storage - that's why I'm asking :)

I have 1+5GB (stock) partitions. I don't have a problem with repartitioning - I'd just like to understand the advantage.

Best regards,

tony
[Nook Color General] mr72:
tony- advantage for you to repartition from 5GB+1GB to 2GB+4GB is that you get 4x as much space for apps. If you don't need it, then there is no advantage.
[Nook Color General] bobtidey:
As the re-partitioning thread documents there are two stock partitioning scenarios

Old 1GB data + 5GB media - Tight on data if you start installing quite a few apps

New 5GB data + 1GB media - Really too large on data. You would have to install a huge number of apps to need 5G.

So the benefit of the repartitioning scripts is to re-allocate more optimally for android tablet use.

Using the 2 + 4 scheme gives 2GB data for data which is a very generous amount for installed apps, and releases 4GB for media and other uses. Previous posts have talked about 4GB for data; that is not what the standard partitioning scripts give.

Whether you then choose to swap media and SD is really down to personal taste. Swap allows for SD less operation but at the expense of a small SD partition and the actual SD card is used primarily for holding media files. Non swap is more 'standard' and allows for a base set of media on the emmc and an SD partition limited only by the size of the card.

if yes so what to do step 11 and 12?
[Nook Color General] jgaf:
mr72

I did all the tinkering except the repartitioning parts. I definetly see a lot of improvement in my battery life, although I'm re-calibrating it as we speak. But since I did all the tinkering I got 7hrs and 45 mins with 10% of battery left. This include surfing the web, watching videos from time to time, and reading book with TTS. I'm not sure how you get 10-12 hrs of video though.\

Hopefully after re-calibrating the battery I'll get more battery life. Before the tinkering I was getting around 6hrs to 7hrs for doing the same I've been doing since the tinkering. So I've been getting around 1hr more than before :)

Is there anyway of bypassing the NC autoshutdown after 9% battery?
[Nook Color General] tonyp:
Yes you can use this guide. Just skip step 11 and get the ROM Manager apk here:

http://www.clockworkmod.com/rommanager (search for "Nook Color").
[Nook Color General] mr72:
I am not sure how your NC will react to not having a google account.

However, you are going to have to get the ROM Manager beforehand and put it on your SD card if you are not going to have access to wifi during the install.
