Yes, you will have to know how to solder :D

I wouldn't know what more to write as a tutorial.

There are tutorials out there on how to open the Nook (pry out power button, remove single screw, slide open)

The rest is in the pictures, soldering points clearly visible.

You don't even have to remove the board from the front as shown in the pictures.
[Nook Touch General] GabrialDestruir:
It still charges via USB and everything?
[Nook Touch General] shadow#:
Yes, no drawbacks at all.
[Nook Touch General] Renate:
Does it connect directly across the battery or into where the USB comes in?
[Nook Touch General] shadow#:
The Powermat receiver is connected to USB +5V / GND.

For the Nook it's the same as connecting a charger.
[Nook Touch General] ApokrifX:
Guys,

I recall, the nook (as most other devices) battery “doesn’t like” to be frozen, completely discharged, have limited number of charge/discharge cycles, etc.

Not sure tho, how many of these rumors are true, actually. :confused:

About charge/discharge cycles:

Won’t it’ll be better to charge battery only if it’s discharged below some threshold and leave it along otherwise?

I guess, it’ll require some advanced schematics, something almost impossible for DIY projects...
[Nook Touch General] brendan10211:
What did you use to get the powermat part? Did you just rip open a different accessory or what?
[Nook Touch General] shadow#:
The Nook already does that. If it's above 93% it will not start charging.

I don't charge it regularly anyway, it's just that now I can do it with the Powermat.

Yes. I took the Blackberry receiver that came with the Powermat, put it on the radiator to soften up the glue and removed the electronics by prying them off with the clear piece of plastic you can see in the first gallery photo.
[Nook Touch General] Renate:
If it's connected directly where the USB goes than it relies on the Nook seeing that it is a charge device. My experience has generally been positive, but don't be surprised if you look at the Nook after 8 hours on the mat and it says 36%, not charging. USB charging theoretically relies on handshaking of the data lines. It might also be charging at the lowest rate of 100 mA.
[Nook Touch General] shadow#:
So far I only charged it once and it seemed to do just fine.

I don't know what the normal charging rate would be but it didn't seem slow.
[Nook Touch General] Rick-S:
I don't believe that is the case. If you use an AC charger with the usb cable, there is no data communication going on, just the 5V and GND connections.
[Nook Touch General] viouviou:
If you use an AC charger, the charger short-circuits the DATA- and DATA+ lines of the USB cable. This way the device knows it is connected to a charger and not to a computer and it knows it can draw more power to charge. I think Renate NST means that the nook won't know it is connected to an AC charger and will charge as if it is connected to a USB port e.g. slower than with an AC charger.
[Nook Touch General] mrWax:
Additional battery supply

Hi! is there possibility - maybe using heat to change back casing to get more space, to include larger or additional battery? This way one may get more power to usb host mode and also more time on charged nook :)
[Nook Touch General] brendan10211:
What a wonderful idea, but it would be easier to just make a new backing for it that was thicker.

But the entire point of the nook is how thin it is, so that would defeat the purpose of a thin reading tablet.
[Nook Touch General] Googie2149:
Where did you read that? The point of the Nook is to be an E-Reader, not being a thing thing. I could apply that to... an orange slice if I wanted to. It's thin(ish), but it's food.
[Nook Touch General] brendan10211:
Must you go against everything I say?
[Nook Touch General] Googie2149:
I haven't a clue what you're talking about, now could you stop before this becomes a flame war?
[Nook Touch General] brendan10211:
Ice ice baby!

Anyway...

How much did the powermat thingy cost? I want one.
[Nook Touch General] Renate:
Ok, I give up. I can't see things that tiny.

It's smaller than any tool that I have.

The answer: It's a Torx T-5 screw. Internal screws on the Nook are T-6.

Heya, I did search and haven't found a topic discussing Nova Launcher.

I was wondering what everyones opinion was on it now that we have ICS.

So far I have been enjoying it, I like the customization it offers.
[Eee Pad Transformer Themes and Apps] ldc2335:
I logged in just to come here and post about NOVA Launcher and you beat me to it.

A little background on it is the stock ICS launcher with some add ons, Its running great for me. .

[Eee Pad Transformer Themes and Apps] dtm_stretch:
Im using trebuchet launcher right now and it is pretty good. Anyone compared the two? features seem very similar.
[Eee Pad Transformer Themes and Apps] Danzano:
I have nova, the screen size is all f'd up on trebuchet it's much better but still not great pretty stock

Im now going to try Apex and 360 see how they go

Does anyone know of any others????
[Eee Pad Transformer Themes and Apps] Shadow-Nexus:
I'm going to stick to stock launcher until they release Nova for tablets cuz at the moment some features don't look and work quite well on tablets plus I find stock launcher faster
[Eee Pad Transformer Themes and Apps] psycho2097:
Nova works fine for tablets. I have been using it on my nexus since 2 months and on my transformer since today. Works perfectly. Smooth amd fast.

Sent from my Galaxy Nexus
[Eee Pad Transformer Themes and Apps] Drybonz:
I just installed Nova, and it seems pretty nice... a few nice options stock doesn't have.

I can't figure out how to add a folder though... can anyone help me out with that? I see the options for folder backgrounds, etc... I just can't figure out how to make one on the desktop.

*edit* Never mind... I figured it out. For anyone else wondering, drag one icon on top of another, iPhone style.
[Eee Pad Transformer Themes and Apps] veloom:
I installed Nova Launcher today and like it a lot so far. Very smooth
[Eee Pad Transformer Themes and Apps] Danzano:
Trying apex launcher right now it has almost every option that nova has its free no upgrade to premium crap like nova more features are coming soon and its under 1mb in size :D

Think i have found my fav ics launcher for now
[Eee Pad Transformer Themes and Apps] ldc2335:
You can change the grid size and the margins.
[Eee Pad Transformer Themes and Apps] Danzano:
Have not tried 360 yet but so far apex is good you can change grid size but i don't think margins although the dev says he will be adding more and more features
[Eee Pad Transformer Themes and Apps] kay_kiat88:
I've tried both free versions of Nova and Apex and I must say I prefer Apex.

The thing about Nova is that it is not fully optimized yet for tablets. From the app drawer you can see that it only fills the middle part of the screen. Features are limited for the free version whereas for Apex, it is completely free with all features that Nova Prime has. I'll stick to Apex for now.. but I'll still keep a lookout for Nova.
[Eee Pad Transformer Themes and Apps] ldc2335:
My Nova fills the whole(app drawer) screen. At first it didnt, but i think after a reboot of something it fixed itself and now works great.
[Eee Pad Transformer Themes and Apps] kay_kiat88:
Weird. After a reboot, mine's still not fullscreen. Did you integrate the Nova Launcher as a system app?
[Eee Pad Transformer Themes and Apps] antipesto93:
For me the nova docked increased in size when i increased the desktop width x height grid to 10x 10, then after applying the settings i changed it back to the original 8x9 i wanted.
[Eee Pad Transformer Themes and Apps] horndroid:
Just go into Nova Settings -> Desktop

Increase the value for Columns. It will make app drawer fill the screen more.

You can increase the Rows too but 8 or higher will make icon labels invisible. 7 is the max without making the labels disappear.
[Eee Pad Transformer Themes and Apps] Drybonz:
I searched for Apex in the market, but I don't see the launcher.
[Eee Pad Transformer Themes and Apps] horndroid:
Google it.
[Eee Pad Transformer Themes and Apps] krash183:
Nova launcher for sure.... by far the smoothest launcher ive used on any device. no stutters. and the card stack transition is a personal fave.
[Eee Pad Transformer Themes and Apps] Mercvtio:
Well I use Nova on my phone and it is just perfect for it, but when it came to my TF, I found it was a bit awkward... No matter what, I would find the margins a bit too large, and my Asus Weather widget would look cropped at the bottom (I had to resize it real big to have something convenient).

I tried Apex, and it's much more to my liking. A tad faster for me, and it even got the screen transitions i craved so much on stock. Apex it is, then !
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] cmstlist:
Earlier today when I was having some trouble trying to get my GN booting, I went into CWM and plugged in the USB cord, and was able to ADB into the phone in recovery mode. All my files were there and I was able to push/pull what I needed.

After a full reinstall and re-root, now something has changed. When I go in by ADB in CWM recovery, all the directories appear to be empty and I can't adb pull any files out.

Any idea what changed and how to make it so I can access files again by ADB in recovery?

Just to show you what I mean, here is me doing the same ls command from the OS and from recovery:
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] danger-rat:
Have you tried su then ls?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] cmstlist:
No difference - with ADB in recovery, su gives me:

/sbin/sh: su: not found

The sdcard directory is empty too in recovery.

And now that my phone is unbootably crashed again... I have a nandroid backup sitting on internal storage and I'm trying to find a way to yank it out with access only to bootloader and recovery.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] cmstlist:
Ok I feel silly. Had to mount everything under mounts and storage. Now I can see it all.

It turns out that because /data and /sdcard actually reside in the same place... if /data is not mounted on GN, then you can't see /sdcard either.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] beekay201:
no, /sdcard/ is just a symlink to /data/media, put there for backwards compatibility. if you 'ls /data/media/' you should be able to see all "sdcard" contents.

By far one of the best roms tasted...

Loved the speed and the simplicity..

I agree with mobs84.. no theme by default.. You can theme it the way you want..

Kicks ass..

[Galaxy S II Android Development] prosumerhacks:
How does this rom differ from others? It has most tweaks from HyperDroid..all mods are known to be used in other roms..its just another stock looking modd rom...not a bad thing but not a great thing too...

[Galaxy S II Android Development] mobs84:
prosumerhacks. I had mentioned before, this ROM was made for a closed group and it was updated here because of the feedback given after usage. Found it to be stable and fast and best of all battery efficient. So thought of uploading it. You will get multiple cars with different brand names and same specs, but some shine really well in the mass crowd. I'm just another small ROM cooker who thought of sharing something which I felt has come out well.. Thats all.. :)
[Galaxy S II Android Development] prosumerhacks:
If you were keen on sharing, it would have been great if you had put down in descriptive terms how you cooked this stable rom? From all the feedback and discussions on latest gb releases its pretty evident that stock la4 itself is really good...moreover you have jkay mode + HyperDroid tweaks + Red pill kernel + other modds.... so its bound to be good unless you do something intentional to make it bad... its like reinventing the wheel when you really didn't have to..

Did i anywhere mention that I have done something great? Did I hide anything? I have mentioned in detail from where and what tweaks are added after getting consent with the original developers. The purpose was simple, get all the great mods in one ROM for my personal use, and its here right now. Its for you to choose if you want to install or not :)

[Galaxy S II Android Development] warrez:
no i actually like the ideas of this...

if more bloatware is removed and MMS.apk is modded to convert into mms after 200 sms

and can add 100 recipient instead of 10, plus tweak the stock camera to shoot higher quality videos and better sound...

if u slim it down right.. i'm pretty sure u can get it to 200 mb~ without removing much of the stock app

[Galaxy S II Android Development] sangosnip69:
Hi, good rom but nothing is amazing and she looks ( not the theme, the rom ) to all the others rom... Nothing is new.

I think you must put some others tweaks who are useful and put some of YOUR tweaks.

I can understand, that's the beginning of your rom, but in your next release try to make a better rom :). My comments are only to help you, nothing is sad.
[Galaxy S II Android Development] malavan:
what's the problem if you dont like it dont install it comon people.
[Galaxy S II Android Development] mobs84:
Thanks mate, will definitely include this is the next release. Thanks for the support and feedback :)
[Galaxy S II Android Development] mobs84:
sangospin69, Thanks mate. This is my first release and to start with wanted to ensure I give a base rom which runs smooth and stable, tweaks and add-ons can be integrated based on user feedbacks, but for that I need motivation to spent time building and tweaking ROMS, and that happens only with community support and strong feedbacks. The idea behind this ROM was simple. Hyperdroid V6 is and will remain as the fastest and smoothest ROM i have used, and JKAY mod as one of the greatest mods ever released for S2. I wanted make a base which gives similar smoothness of Hyperdroid but at the sametime gives support for JKAY, and this ROM is derivative of that idea, trying to bring two great things together.. :)
[Galaxy S II Android Development] mobs84:
I'm uploading Fatal1ty in one more link right now :)
[Galaxy S II Android Development] mobs84:

[Galaxy S II Android Development] kabecilhas:
A few screenshots please!

I don't know the rom!
[Galaxy S II Android Development] mobs84:
Hi.. As I have mentioned in my main thread, this ROM doesnt require screenshot since the purpose is not a jazzy looking ROM with coloured ICONS. Its a stable base ROM for performance and battery friendliness. Why would you want screenshot for a stock looking base, you can always choose the theme you want from the list mentioned in second thread or any other XWLA based theme :)
[Galaxy S II Android Development] mobs84:
If theme is such a critical component for a ROM, I can make theme package with JKAY support specially for Fatal1ty. My time is not permitting me, but will surely start cooking this weekend... :)

[Galaxy S II Android Development] warrez:
dont bother on theme.. i seriously am liking the idea of not having pre-themed.. and user can just flash any theme they want... i think u should focus on making the rom slimmer and having more tweaks?

so far that i've been searching.. ever since "Simple and Clean" rom died there is non slimmed rom that doesnt have any theme with all the "goodies" tweaks
[Galaxy S II Android Development] mobs84:
warez. I'm in the same page, stable base which is not pre-themed, but if mass interested is on prethemed ROM then I guess I will still continue making Stable Base and give Theme addon packages for it.. :rolleyes: Thoughts?
[Galaxy S II Android Development] warrez:
i dont see any reason why not.. but if u dont have much time then dont bother.. coz there is alot of pre-themed like "V3RTR3MA" which i currently use in daily activity... and that rom is fully tweaked and fully themed.. it like flash and use lol.. but there isnt much of slimmed > stock > fully tweaked roms...
