[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] TRS-80:
In another thread, albertwertz made these observations in a video he created:

I figured this topic deserved a post of it's own, so as not to get lost within the CM7 support thread, so I created it.

The only real concern I had, before switching to CM7, was what about Adobe PDF ebook format? There is some DRM in there that can only be opened (as far as I can tell) by the stock B&N Reader app. So I suppose my questions are these:

1.Is the stock B&N Reader app already included in the CM7 ROM? If so, can it open Adobe PDF ebook format?

And if not, then...

2.Are there any other (vanilla Android) app(s) that can open these kind of files?

3.If you backup the stock B&N Reader app (using TiBu, etc.), then restore it back into your newly installed CM7, does it still work with the Adobe PDF ebook format (and possibly other forms of DRM as well)?

Apparently, this Adobe PDF ebook is one of the predominant formats used by libraries to allow checking out of materials available electronically (something I have just been looking into lately) and so I thought it would be an important issue for others as well.
[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] lavero.burgos:
1. No, it's not supported

2. Try with ezPDF Reader

3. No

Yes Adobe's Digital Addition it is very important.

Without this capability you will limit your access to reading material to basically purchased; I think you will find the BN free book list wanting. I limit my book purchases to a few authors (the electronic books are expensive compared to printed from what I can tell they can not be resold).

The Adobe digital addition will not load onto a stock nook. I was hoping that could be fixed at some point. The Nook reader is well worth keeping.
[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] ebarry51:
most libraries, in the NY area at least, have some ebook lending capabilities available through their website. There's an app called OverDrive available on Android Market (and iphone/ipad App Store) that links in to many of these libraries and handles the DRM and serves as the reader. It's fairly well-featured and allows to search for your local library in the US by ZIP code. All can be done OTA in this case, without a need to hook up to USB to move over the Adobe Digital Edition files.

If you really prefer the Kindle app, many of the ebooks the library lends can also be sent to your Kindle account, which any Kindle or Kindle app can pick up.

Hope this helps.
[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] Cubanluke88:
If this is a concern I think you could always just flash back to a nandroid of the stock rom or wait for a cm7 bootable SD card and just pull it and put into stock when you need this.
[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] johnjjschmidt:
You can do all this from your NT. Download Aldiko from the market. Download the acsm file from your public digital library. Use a file explorer - I use Root Explorer, Astro does not work for some reason - to select acsm then wait a few seconds as you receive epub.

Let me know how things work out or ask if you have any questions.
[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] tf144:
It is also a pretty simple matter to strip the DRM from an adobe pdf that you download from the library.

You can find a blog post with more information titled "Ebook Formats, DRM and You — A Guide for the Perplexed" (can't actually link to it yet...).

Using a program like Calibre, you can strip the DRM and load the pdf onto your nook, or convert it into a different format.

I personally haven't had a chance to try the Overdrive app for a pdf file, only epub, but for the most part it works well.
[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] johnjjschmidt:
Overdrive is merely a middleman. I think Aldiko offers a superior reader.

[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] Know-Fear:
SD card version of CM7 is currently in the final testing stages. Look for it to be released by Celtic very soon.

I don't currently have any pdf files with DRM in them. I have never had one far as I know. I have always been able to read pdfs one way or another on any android device. As far as the B&N stock app being included with CM7, no, that app in particular will not work. However the B&N app in the market works for most things. DRM protected epubs purchased from B&N, purchasing, reading etc.
[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] heissman:
For me, the switch to CM7 has been almost all Pros and very few Cons. The NT boots quicker, touch screen seems much more responsive and I can tweak just about any setting I can imagine. The only Con has been an intermittent wifi issue but a simple reboot fixes that if/when it pops up.

Many thanks to Team B for there hard work on CM7!!!
[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] slgooding:
Con of CM7 is stability. I was taking notes for about 10 minutes and it locked up and reboot.
[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] StridAst:
Cons of cm7:

No B&N content.

intermittent wifi issues.

you need to remove and replace the sd card at times

you have too many choices to decide what to do with your tablet.

Cons of Stock.

B&N content

you have to deal with barnes and noble's restrictions on everything they could possibly restrict

you have too few choices about what to do with your tablet

you have too see the annoying nook logo on boot for halfway to forever. (what did they extend the time it takes you to boot just to get more airtime for the nook logo, in case someone, somewhere didn't know it was a nook by barnes and noble?
[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] dreadpirate15:
Pros of CM7

CM7 (Android and all the awesome that comes with a open ROM)

Android Market - Apps, Music, Books, etc

Pride in an unlocked device

Any ereader you want!

Pros of 1.4.x (Stock Nook ROM)

Full B&N support

Full B&N compatibility

Perfectly working Netflix

The biggest Pro for Stock, and so the biggest Con to CM7, is the lack of stability. Remember, CM7 is still alpha software. And I love it! :D
[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] tonytronic:
Downloaded Aldiko. Downloaded acsm from library. Used es file explorer to select acsm file. Selected open with Aldiko.

I get an error: Could not load file.

Just realized. I downloaded the file with overdrive directly to nook and its saved as epub not acsm. Can this be the problem?

So far loving cm7. Only problem has been wifi. Moving around the house, on a weak signal wifi will not turn on. I have to leave wifi on & it works fine.
[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] TRS-80:
After posting, I realized that some of what I said in my OP may have been construed as nit-picking. I suppose what I should have said was, "I have been anxiously awaiting the CM7 ROM and am very excited about it's release. However, I have just begun trying to download some ebooks from my local library and have come across some issues with DRM, specifically Adobe PDF ebook format..." which would be much closer to my sentiments on the matter. :)

I did hear quite a few good things about the Aldiko reader when I was quickly trying to solve this problem the other day (before posting). I will try that (as well as the other suggestions) and report back my findings. Give me another week or two though, we just moved and are still working on getting settled in to the new place. ;)

Thanks everyone for your input thus far.
[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] johnjjschmidt:
Very possible. I downloaded the acsm file directly through the library site as opposed through Overdrive... in fact, I have that completely uninstalled.
[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] PlacidCat:
Very interesting... I thought I would try ES Explorer to try and open an ascm file and apparently, it doesn't recognize file associations that are set up for the file. I get the option to open the file as text/image/video/audio but no way to open it with Aldiko.

I tried Astro but at the moment I'm using rooted 1.4.0 and Astro doesn't work well with that setup. (Does it work any better in CM7???) I used the search function, typed in part of the ascm file name, and clicked on the appropriate file in the results and it opened in Aldiko. A pain in the butt, but it worked.
[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] johnjjschmidt:
No, Astro does not appear to work with CM7, from what I can tell. Root Explorer gave me the best results.

[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] fjhuerta:
I just found out the biggest disadvantage I could ever think of about a stock Nook. Something that made me delete my backup and forget 1.4.1 ever existed - a terrible oversight by B&N, IMHO.

It's useless outside the US.

I can't believe B&N. When I bought the Nook, the salesman who sold it to me knew perfectly well I lived in Mexico. He never mentioned I can't buy any books with an international credit card, or even if I had a US card, I wouldn't be able to download them outside the country.

Seriously - WTH? Had I known that, I'd have bought a Kindle immediately. I love the children's books on the Nook. I like the magazines, and B&N store. And I'm locked out of it.

As it is, I just deleted the Nook app and will stick with CM7 from now on. God bless the Kindle app.

As far as Nextflix goes, what's the issue? I hear it doesn't play if you have a working `su` executable, but can easily be renamed. Is there anything else needed for CM7? Maybe it checks the build.prop?
[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] ckevinwelch:
It plays, even with root, but the currently released build doesn't have hardware decoding (or acceleration, I can't recall which). It should be fixed in the next build.

I am using Nexus One with Cyanogenmod latest stable build. Whenever I seems interested in an app at android market, I will install from the website in PC. But after switching on Wifi, only the installed apps in my mobile are updated. So, my question is: "How to sync the installed apps in android market with the mobile phone" :confused: means whichever apps I installed in android market from PC, should be installed whenever i switch on wifi (I will do it after 3-4 days).

Hey guys I would just like to share this wonderful app because I'm so overjoyed with it!:D It recovers any file, I guess.

I guess that's a different way of deleting, maybe it got corrupted or overwritten in the process. Recuva doesn't recover files which were corrupted, overwritten, etc.....I'm sorry spacecaker. I've read your post about all of your files being deleted in megaupload and multiupload, right? Was that you? lol Anyway, try restarting your phone and pc, I did that just to be sure to have a fresh device or something.

Yes, I think that's one of the exemption where you can't recover it. Because it's a new format. I think the app works only when you just deleted it accidentally, then try to recover it the following day. I guess when you format your SD Card, it's like giving it a clean slate, no more traces or whatsoever. :) But you wouldn't accidentally format your SD, would you?:D
[Galaxy Ace S5830 General] pyronia:
Nop...if u format your sd in device such as phone or camera...its still can be recovered :)

But if u format it using some kind of windows app to format sd, it will not be recovered again coz on pc u can make your sd to different format such as ext2, ext3, ext4, fat or fat32...

Recovering files aren't reliable

Recovering files aren't reliable, it just works when you have f**ked your data up. On Linux there is a software named testdisk, which is very helpful when you deleted something inexpertly.

If you have deleted something that you don't want, just stop any operation on the disk/phone at once, or the data might be corrupted or overwritten, which is impossible to be recovered by this kind of software. (Send it to professional data recovery services might help, but it will cost you lots of money.)

Exactly, after you accidentally deleted a file, you should just use this app. :D
[Galaxy Ace S5830 General] Albert_Eines:
In order to get back all the stored data which have become unreachable due to corruption in memory card, memory card recovery software is used. The software you choose for retrieving data from the memory card must be reliable and efficient that does not alter the content of the device.

[HD7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Lifear:
After updating to the latest available official Upadte here in germany i notice a huge drain in battery after ICS Usage. Normaly (before firing ICS the first time), i have 1 day and 15 hours remaining time after fully charging my battery with normal charger. Then i use ICS for some minutes, after Usage, i disable it. My battery goes down to 75%, but thats ok. WLAN or ICS consumes a lot of power. But from now on, if i charge my battery to 100% and look directly after this at the remaining time, i see no more than 18 – 22 hours. I havent used ICS now since 14 days. Ist disabled completely, but the remaining time keeps the same. If i do a hardreset, i go back to 1 day and 15 hours. This is keeped, until i use ICS again.

What can i do? Can anyone confirm this behaviour or give me a workaround?

Battery remaining time is working as a car's fuel indicator, goes low when you accelerate harder, and goes high when you go slow...

it's an average

, not a real time indicator...

so when you use some greedy app for a given time, battery stuff will tell that it drains fast (logic)...after a pause (no apps running) the remaining time gets higher and higher...

and for better convenience it would be cool to call a cat a cat, ICS is ice cream sh*t, IS is internet sharing...
