[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] V@no:
The problem here is none of such compromises are publicly available for users to weight their decision with, none of the reviews have mention such crucial flaws, they have some cons about colors in photos or phone being too wide, but nothing that would greatly affect user's experience with phone's usage. Customers will have to experience it themselves, which means they will have to buy it first. (for example LG Nitro HD has defective hardware compass and the only way to know about it to experience it yourself, because nobody is talking about)

In this particular case with multitasking, the only people who's not getting affected by it are the same people who shouldn't buy such phone in the first place, since they just wasting money on something they don't use to it's full potentials.

Also, the same logic as "don't like it, don't buy it" can be applied to the OP complaining about the complainers - don't like it, don't read it, move along. But, it's just does not work in our imperfect world...
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] BarryH_GEG:
On this, you and I totally agree. ;) Part of what makes XDA fun (for me)

is

the difference of opinion. It's interesting to see what's important to people and how everyone uses their device differently. The battles always start when smart, knowledgeble, strong-willed people all try to get each other to agree. And I've never seen that happen here or anywhere else.

Imagine I'm making a thread like "Who else is not returning their HOX and dont give a **** about the Samsung Plasticky s3". Pretty sure it will be closed so quick my chair still doesnt get warm yet.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] fitchpuckman:
No i think what is being said is that these threads dont help other users, they just are meant as a knee-jerk reaction to complaints threads. If you want to do what you are suggesting in your post, then you should start a thread along the lines of "I love this phone and here's why", not "tired of the complaints." That's just a complaint about complaining, plain and simple.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] Droidz:
I also started a thread speaking of my problems with the one X and I got a bunch of people whining about my whining which I don't understand. And the point of the thread was not intended to go that route. Anyways I guess alot has changed here in XDA.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] zelendel:
Ok well here is the thing, Whinning about something does nothing to fix it. And complaining about people complain is really kinda pointless.

As a Developers site. It is simple. Either accept the issues or dig in and work to fix them. There is no Whinning option.

You can do this by decompiling your framework-res.apk then edit the bools xml file in the values folder.

Change this

<bool name="config_animateScreenLights">true</bool

to this

<bool name="config_animateScreenLights">false</bool

recompile the framework folder

extract the recources.arsc from your recompile framework-res apk and using vrtheme to install back to your phone

I am assuming you know how to decompile / recompile and add to a flashable zip

[Samsung Galaxy Gio GT-S5660] fsynee:
After almost a day of searching. I found out that you only need to replace your "wpa_supplicant" file on system/bin.

First, download the file in the attachment. then extract it.

using USB cable or bluetooth, copy paste the "wpa_supplicant" file on your sdcard.

using root explorer, go to system/bin, mount r/w,

then rename the "wpa_supplicant" to "wpa_supplicant.old"

then copy paste the new "wpa_supplicant" from your sdcard to system/bin.

Reboot and you'd able to connect to wifi adhoc connection.

Note: Wifi must be turned off while doing this.

[Nook Touch Accessories] Renate:
I took the back off the Nook and disconnected the battery.

I removed the tape on the battery on three sides

I drilled a hole.

I chamfered the inside edges

I glued a round 1/4-20 T nut in the hole using JB Weld epoxy.

I used a bolt and an old plastic lid with a hole in it to pull it tight for drying.

I reassembled the Nook.

The next morning I removed the bolt.

Now I have a Nook that mounts on those little bendy camera tripods.

I can also just stick in a 1/4-20 2.5" bolt as a leg.

I'm going to get an accessory arm so that I can put it on my mic stand.

[Nook Touch Accessories] Renate:
Besides reading books, I use my Nook for display of my guitar transcriptions with lyrics and for recording 24 bit audio.

I don't use a builtin mic, I use a Shure SM58 (standard stage mic) and a Lexicon Alpha USB interface.

Getting it to work is all part of this thread: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1457971

I haven't really ported my guitar transcription display program over to Android yet as it's actually quite complicated.

I format songs as PNGs on my desktop and then have a simple program on the Nook that can scroll them.

I have a database front-end for looking up songs that's actually more convenient than anything that I have on my desktop.
[Nook Touch Accessories] speedman2202:

The link trail from the USB kernel mods has been quite a trip.

What a cool and interesting thing you have done. Very very nice.

They were throwing this device in with purchases of the Color not too long ago. Sometimes the most interesting times for a device is when the manufacturer moves on.
[Nook Touch Accessories] _ig_:
second that

Renate, you may have a market if you could package the round 1/4-20 T nut into a generic back cover for the nook (to look just like this for the iphone http://goo.gl/noOBd )...
[Nook Touch Accessories] _ig_:
Renate do you think one of these http://www.millennium-music.co.uk/mic-spring-clip-holder-mp850 would be enough to hold the nook with that base you got from amazon? many thanks
[Nook Touch Accessories] Renate:
The problem with clips is that they are always a bit awkward and slippery.

I think that the 1/4" insert is perfect.

It's minimal but is sufficient for a solid mount.

It doesn't really get in the way of slip-on cases or holding it in your hand.

I used the mic clip that cam with the desk stand.

I threw away the clip part and sawed off the two lugs on the base.

I drilled a whole through the center of the base and screwed in a 1/4" bolt.

In bed I use a little bendy tripod.

I usually use it as a single foot with the base of the Nook resting on a surface.
[Nook Touch Accessories] _ig_:
as I don't have a drill, here is my plan... this http://goo.gl/0VXbX glued to the back of this http://goo.gl/HupQE and screwed to the base you have http://goo.gl/i9ztI... wish me luck
[Nook Touch Accessories] Renate:
Yup, that should work pretty well.

That will give you a nice solid mount.

I hadn't known about that hard back at the time.

I had thought about bending up a little aluminum tray.

You'll forgive me if I still prefer my little internal 1/4" mount.
[Nook Touch Accessories] litvinov:
Could this method be used to install nook on bicycle ? Or maybe somebody know better bicycle fixing mechanism?
[Nook Touch Accessories] _ig_:
I think you could use this http://www.amazon.com/Campro-Microphone-ShockMount-Connectors-Included/dp/B004YGMOSC on the bike since it seems to have a 5/8" connector adapter. I haven't received the hard case yet, so I'm not sure it would be strong enough to hold the Nook when you hit those occasional bumps, in which case Renate's method of drilling a hole in back may be the way to go...
[Nook Touch Accessories] Renate:
All this stuff would work.

I just don't know how "snappy" the hard back is and how difficult to put on/take off.

The other thought of mine was to epoxy a steel plate to the case

then use a powerful magnet on something.

I had also thought of epoxying a cold shoe to the outside of the case.
[Nook Touch Accessories] Renate:
I sawed a leg off a tripod!

Here's another stand possibility, a monopod.

The bendy leg came off a small bendy tripod.

The hex piece is a 1/4-20 coupler with a 1/4-20 setscrew.

The other end had its threads filed out so that the leg could be inserted.

The whole thing was expoxied with JB Weld.
[Nook Touch Accessories] _ig_:
Cool. Here is my provisional stand... waiting for the hard cover... the stand is tough, can probably hold a 20" screen :laugh:
[Nook Touch Accessories] Renate:
Yes, the gooseneck is very stiff.

The gooseneck in your photo looks longer than 8"

There was a bit of a discrepancy on the Amazon site.

The photo showed a longer gooseneck but the part number was for an 8"
[Nook Touch Accessories] _ig_:
I checked and it's 10"... then again, I got this one which seemed exactly the same: http://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/product/B000KEERXW/ref=oh_details_o00_s00_i00
[Nook Touch Accessories] _ig_:
Got the back cover. Final product:
[Nook Touch Accessories] Renate:
That's pretty nice and I'll bet it's awfully solid.

How easy is it to get in and out of the mount?

Are you going for the full desktop solution with keyboard and hub?
[Nook Touch Accessories] _ig_:
It's solid, but I had to glue a thin foam between the metal and the plastic back-cover to improve adherence. Getting the Nook in and out of the mount is easy - it snaps well; the quality of the back-cover is not bad at all.

No plans to incorporate the usb hub and keyboard at the mo, but it should be relatively easy to run the usb cable thru the inside of the leg and stick the usb hub to the back of the back-cover...
[Nook Touch Accessories] jealousblues:
Sorry to bump an old thread.

Im using a nook color for lyrics live and im doing something similar but im attaching it to my light stand but I need help.

heres my plan

1) Attach Global Truss Clamp Jr to top of old boom stand

2) ....???...

3) (profit) attach what ever I come up with for step two to an adaptor like the OP did in this one, except im going to attach it to my otterbox instead of directly to the nook.

BUT I need help with step two.

I took the mic clip off the boom stand but now I need something to attach the threaded end of that stand to the bit you placed on the back of your nook, op...

also I want it to swivel and rotate.

Any thoughts?

---------- Post added at 09:29 AM ---------- Previous post was at 09:03 AM ----------

I would think you could rig something up with a "quick release" latch like they use for the wheels or the seat

I bet there is already an adaptor for this somewhere though
[Nook Touch Accessories] jealousblues:
here is a picture of what I have so far

http://www.flickr.com/photos/25459485@N06/8153105389/
[Nook Touch Accessories] Renate:
It's the last bit of connection to the device that's the tough one.

Various solutions are:

Glue a flat metal plate to the device and use a powerful magnet. (An old disk drive has insanely strong magnets.)

Glue a photo cold shoe plate to the device and use a shoe adapter.

Mount a T-nut inside the device and use a threaded end (as above).

Use a repurposed hard shell (as above).

Make a little tray with 4 lips out of sheet metal.
[Nook Touch Accessories] jealousblues:
i think ive found my solution

attach this to the end of the boom stand, so the nook can swivel

http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B001GWCC4I/ref=ox_sc_act_title_1?ie=UTF8&smid=ATVPDKIKX0DER

and use your t nut method.

ill probably drill a hole in the case so not to do so to the nook

do you think its better to use the t nuts with the locking blades or the smooth one you did?

i considered this

"Glue a photo cold shoe plate to the device and use a shoe adapter."

but it never occured me to glue it,

in my mind it was more like "this adapter would work...but i have no idea how to connect it to the nook"
[Nook Touch Accessories] jealousblues:
so I got the brad hole tee nut today

and tomorrow im getting the mic/video adaptor tomorrow.

The otterbox arrived today.

It felt a little thinner than I thought it might and it added more weight than I thought.

Originally I thought i would put the tee nut between the hard shell and the rubber bumper part but im wondering if that will cause the hard shell to break under the weight.

so the way I look at it I have three options on where to place the tee nut

1) b/t the hard shell and rubber

2) b/t the rubber and the nook

3) under the nooks back plate

and drilled through the above layers.

What do you think?
[Nook Touch Accessories] Renate:
The "brad" T-nut is clearly better. You only need the tang one for wood.

I really don't know how the structure of the Nook Color is.

On the Touch I just mounted the T-nut between the battery and the case.

There is enough breathing room there.

If it made the case bow out a fraction of an inch it wasn't a problem.
[Nook Touch Accessories] jealousblues:
just an update in case anyone cares

so I had that working at the gig the other day and the base was slightly bowing from the pressure. SO what I did was move the tee nut from between the outer case and the rubber one to between the rubber one and the nook (still passing through the plastic case). I also put a washer on the inside of the plastic part around the tee nut so it increased the area that was getting pressure on the case, then I put another larger washer on the outside of the case b/t it and the mouth and its a lot more stable now.

Ill see how it does tonight.

[Nook Touch Accessories] Renate:
I wanted to make a mic adapter for my Nook with the T-nut.

It would have about a 1" square face with an inset to accept the shaft of the T-nut so that the face of the block would lie directly against the back of the Nook.

A captive plastic knob 1/4-20 would engage the T-nut.
[Nook Touch Accessories] DeanGibson:
Where did you get the cable?

... the cable pictured in the thumbnail in the OP?
[Nook Touch Accessories] Renate:
I mention the adapter in this post.
[Nook Touch Accessories] Renate:
Too many times of whirling the Nook around on the 1/4-20 microphone mount finally broke the bond on the T-nut inside.

The JB Weld sticks fine to the steel of the T-Nut but not so well to the inside of the back cover of the Nook.

I decided to do some lightweight reinforcement of the back cover.

I took a piece of 1/64" thick sheet aluminum.

That's thick enough that you should use sheet metal snips to cut them

but you could use a good pair of paper scissors (as long as they're not yours). :p

I cut a piece as big as the battery compartment, about 2-1/4" x 3-9/16".

I drilled a hole in the right place.

I gooped epoxy on the underside of the aluminum plate.

I gooped epoxy on the underside of the T-nut and pushed it through the aluminum and the case.

I set a screw and a little cup on the outside to provide tension, then reassembled.

The next day I removed the screw and tried it out.

It's much stiffer and a lot less wobbly than it was originally. Success.
