O.k. thanks, I've done it, installed the "noGesture" version, now what? How I can turn it on & of, sorry to bother you, but I'm an absolute nook newbie.

Edit: I've watched videos carefully but I'm missing something... :confused:

Edit 2: I feel a little stupid... found the toggle! Thanks everybody :-))
[Nook Touch Themes and Apps] wheilitjohnny:
I guess u missed out the part, to link the app to the top "Reading Now" button.

Go to NookTouchTools -> B&N Buttons -> "Reading Now" button action

Link this to the noRefresh Enabler App.

Then you can toggle the mode using that button!

Thanks man, I've missed that!

How to reset the "now reading" button

After using the "NoRefresh Toggle", I found the "Now Reading" and the "Library" buttons failed to connect to the original functions. How can I reset these two buttons? Is there any app being able to reset all the buttons including the physical and the virtual?
[Nook Touch Themes and Apps] fufutos:
You don't, you push the nook button and then select whatever you want. Otherwise you go to "nook touch tools"->"B&N buttons"->"Reading Now" button action "B&N defaults". You can do the same for all actions, buttons etc.
[Nook Touch Themes and Apps] Draygon:
Thanks for this great addon!

I just have one problem with it.

I'm using the NoRefresh Toggle - noGestures version.

In Opera Mini, I have to start it for every page again and again. In other apps, I just have to use it one time to make it working for this app.

It's a bit annoying to reload a webpage, or to click a link, and then have to start the norefresh toggle again and again.

Am i doing something wrong?

Thanks in advance!
[Nook Touch Themes and Apps] el34han:
I have been looking for soming link this for almost a year.

This is by far the most useful tweak I have installed on my N2E.

Thank you so much.
[Nook Touch Themes and Apps] marspeople:
This is a known problem. It happens because B&N framework keeps overriding the screen refresh mode in several situations. There is no way to avoid it for now.

However, in Opera Mobile I only have to re-enable NoRefresh whenever I use the stock keyboard, not at every page change. Try using it instead of Mini.

How to put NoRefresh in to sturtup?
[Nook Touch Themes and Apps] mrWax:
problems with switching off no-refresh

It is shame that there is still no posibility of having always on - No-refresh.

It is so annoying. For example Ebookdroid after update stops no-refresh after loading every new page. That makes djvu unreadable for me again.

any ideas for some other app? or chance to make always on - no refresh?
[Nook Touch Themes and Apps] fufutos:
Use another app as reader :-)
[Nook Touch Themes and Apps] Da Man:
Is there a way, to put NoRefreshEnabler into system startup?!
[Nook Touch Themes and Apps] marspeople:
Yes, use Startup Manager app from market, for example.
[Nook Touch Themes and Apps] anikol:
Whats the use? It will have to be restarted all the time, nook constantly switches to refresh.
[Nook Touch Themes and Apps] marspeople:
It's useful only if you use Gestures version, because the app needs to be launched once to start listening to the activation gestures.
[Nook Touch Themes and Apps] Da Man:
Startup Manager is a very bad option! It didn't actually adds my app to startup, it adds itselft to startup and than launches my app. NoRefreshEnabler takes few kb in ram, Startup Manager takes 3-4 mb in ram...
[Nook Touch Themes and Apps] TheDarthVader:
Hi,

Good work with the Nook NoRefresh app.

but.. is there a way that someone add the gesture mode and the contrast adjustment to the PRS-T1 Reader?

These features are really nice, but I don't own a Nook ;/

Thanks
[Nook Touch Themes and Apps] wingmann:
OK, I am ready to be slapped silly if this question is viewed as one of those, "duh" moments but can someone tell me please how to install this? I downloaded the NoRefreshTogel-noGestures.zip file found in the forum. Since everything I read on this forum so far mentioned the program as being an .apk, i assumed unzipping what I downloaded would produce an .apk file. It does not. So, I'm not sure how to install this! I did navigate ESExplorer to the zipped file, and to the unzipped folder... hoping it would just know what to do with it and install it. But alas, that didn't work either. Any concise instructions on how to install this would be much appreciated. Heck, it wouldn't hurt to have a small instrucion on the programs usage in one spot (first post?), but I think I gleened that much from reading all the posts. Just a thought though.

An early apology if this is something I should have known, and a hearty "Thank You" to you all who make, teach, help and "put up with" the rest of us!

Wingmann :)
[Nook Touch Themes and Apps] mdall:
The apk is here :)
[Nook Touch Themes and Apps] wingmann:
mdall, thank you for the reply but.... that did not help. As I mentioned in my post, I have the file -- I just don't know what to do with the file! Let me reiterate: I have installed .apk files before... I navigate to the file within ESExplorer, e.g. "programiwant.apk". ESExplorer then installs it. The file, as you see, had an ".apk" extension. The file I downloaded where you showed me, and where I downloaded it in the first place is "NoRefreshToggle-noGesters.zip". That has a ".zip" extention, so I know it's a zipped file (and not an .apk". When I unzip that file, I get the following:

(folder called) com

(folder called) META-INF

(folder called) res

AndroidManifest.xml

classes.dex

resources.arsc

As you can see, none of those end with ".apk" so obviously I have to do something different with it that just load one file. This I know -- but I just don't know WHAT to do with them. It looks like the folder/file set up that one would install a ROM using CWM. Is that what I'm supposed to do with this? I do not know.

If I could ask again for someone to give some step-by-step instruction on what to do with the downloaded zipped file (and perhaps even some instruction on how the program works), I don't think it would be a bad thing.... perhaps someone else besides me could benefit from it? I would sure appreciate it. And let me again apologize -- as I did in my first post -- if this seems a dumb/noob request. I honestly read all the posts, and I still am not sure how to install this.

Thanks for any help! Wingmann
[Nook Touch Themes and Apps] darkguy2008:
If you unzip an apk you'll see the same contents. Just replace the extension to apk and install.
[Nook Touch Themes and Apps] wingmann:
Ok.. .Thank you Darkguy for that info. I will give it a try.

Take care
[Nook Touch Themes and Apps] marspeople:
Hi everyone,

I guess we all would like NoRefresh to be automatically enabled when dragging and disabled after (like PRS-T1), but this seems hard to implement on the NST. It seems wheilitjohnny was developing a kernel mod to do this but I don't know how it ended up.

So I tried a dirty hack to detect when the screen is being "animated" and after tweaking some nasty parameters (there should be room for improvement here) it quite works. But of course it is not perfect: it may take a while to activate, it may cause unwanted activation, etc. Also, this probably should drain more battery, but I didn't test a lot yet.

To use it, just launch the app and cause some screen animation (e.g., scrolling) to activate NoRefresh. It deactivates only when the animation stops. This is useful for inertial scrolling and automatic animations (such as games). I removed contrast adjustment (for now).

So here it is, I will wait for some feedback to see if it worth posting at the first page. Source code is at: https://github.com/marspeople/NoRefreshToggle
[Nook Touch Themes and Apps] chriscsh:
thanks marspeople :D

my device: software 1.1.0 with the multitouch enable kernel

just try the new apk (auto)

install, restart then launch the app

but seem no different when scrolling or any drap and drop :confused:
[Nook Touch Themes and Apps] marspeople:
I didn't test with multitouch kernel, but I think it should work. As I said, it takes a while to activate NoRefresh, try scrolling for longer.
[Nook Touch Themes and Apps] Renate:
If you are in doubt what/if any "no-refresh" or EpdController app/service is doing just look at your logcat.

You should be seeing things like this:

D/EPD#Example( 5223): set region 6 ACTIVE = 0,0 -> 600,800 = A2
D/NATIVE-EPD( 5223): epd_set_region: 6 (0,0,600,800) 3,8 1

Cant make it work neither in ezpdf or Opera mobile/mini. Multi-touch kernel. Maybe it is working, but i never scroll long enough to see it activated?
[Nook Touch Themes and Apps] domi.nos:
Ok, here is my feedback. App works well, i did not experienced a significant battery leak, but probably it shortens your battery life, as it is a very first version. Then, that are in my opinion most major things to improve: it takes too long to activate no refresh mode, mayby you could do something about it? Second thing is list of app where NOT to enable no refresh mode, e.g. I use it in Opera, EzPDF, and so on, but in Go Launcher, Reader, some more 3rd party apps, I would really like to stay on the classical refresh mode.

Did I help?
[Nook Touch Themes and Apps] mrWax:
No return to refresh?

I have tryied your app at it works very nice !! Could you make one version which wont return to refresh mode after some time like the current one? i.e. refresh mode would turn on again in running app only when "n" button is pressed like in the previous version. It seems much more useful for me. also I one version with additional no-white-screen-on-start-up would be great since I am not scared of the ghosts :)

anyway good job cosidering that there was almost no progress in developement in this area.

[Nook Touch Themes and Apps] marspeople:
In fact, Titanium only shows one NoRefresh because there are two apps in the same package. However, your launcher should show two icons at the app drawer.

Which launcher are you using? (I'm using ADW)

I am using Launcher 7, but i will try ADW, and report soon.

At first you need to set up all the settings in Settings App in your app drawer. Then program can be activated. See the settings app.

have you specified applications in which you want run the app in the settings?

Please try checking some apps in the "App Whitelist" menu.

Also, note that no-refresh mode is not permanent, it may be overridden by the system, for instance when you open ADW's app drawer or switch foreground app.
[Nook Touch Themes and Apps] imachine:
Ok, I figure it's not perm, but what I've seen so far was the daemon dying almost instantly.

I figured if the daemon dies, there's nothing working in the background picking up my touches in order to set the proper modes.

Now, adding the apps to whitelist seems to do the trick.

What's the hack here? Does your app just run automatically upon every other app start, or does it never die -and the logcat messages I posted above are not important?

Just curious.
[Nook Touch Themes and Apps] doctrin:
To repeat myself, there is no use in whitelist...unfortunately.

[Nook Touch Themes and Apps] imachine:
Why? I disagree, adding apps to whitelist seems to help, though the errors mentioned before and pasted from my logcat persist I think.
[Nook Touch Themes and Apps] marspeople:
There was a bug it would make it crash with an empty whitelist, fixed now. The daemon runs constantly, but only takes action when the running app is in the whitelist. If it works, then it didn't crash. ;)

Sorry, but I can't figure out what is going on in your case, maybe an adb crash log would be helpful.

NO.

The i9250 is a GSM/HSPA+ device. You have to be in the US on Verizon Wireless and buy a i515 CDMA/LTE model to get LTE.

3G = UMTS

H = HSDPA/HSPA+

Don't want to be rude but its Feb 17 and this phone has been out for 3 months. It does not support LTE!

[Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] GoodDayToDie:
Welcome to the wonderful world of AT&T! Why would you ever want to do that? <eye-rolling goes here>

That said, while AT&T does appear to cap the recipients themselves, you can certainly try increasing that limit on the phone. To do that, you'll need to edit the registry, as you appear to have figured out.

The apps you mention (in fact, pretty much any interop-requiring app) won't work on a Focus S (or any other second-gen phone) right now - Samsung changed the drivers used for high-privilege access to apps, and the apps written for first-gen phones can't use them.

Instead, you'll need to use provxml, deployed using ZIP path traversal and processed using the Diagnostics app (basically, what you did for WindowBreak, but with your own file). First, you'll need to build the provxml file. If you look at the Windowbreak zip file (I suggest you use 7-Zip, as it will keep the .. folders correctly) you'll see that it has an xml file buried in it, which contains registry "provisioning" commands (the format is called "provxml"). Alternatively, you can look up the format for registry provisioning directly from MS: http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/embedded/gg155017

OK, so you've created your provxml file (or edited an existing one) to update the correct registry value with the data you want to use. Next, get that file onto the phone. You can either put it in a ZIP file that you email to yourself, or put it in a XAP file (which is just a renamed ZIP, again 7-Zip is your friend here as it will automatically recognize the archive format) and install that file to the phone. In both cases, it'll need to be in a folder called something like "..\..\..\..\..\provxml\" (if you look at the Windowbreak zip file, you'll see this).

Then, just follow the same instructions you used for WindowBreak but select your own file instead. The registry should be changed!
