You could try this app

https://play.google.com/store/apps/...251bGwsMSwxLDEsImNvbS52aXRhbC50c3QubjcwMDAiXQ..

Although it is initially free you will have to pay to get the full features. As a free app any tuning you do will be erased after you lock the screen. The paid version allows for permanent changes, though I have not used the full version to verify this.

You have to be rooted for it to work and it's great on Samsung roms. It's not so useful on CM9 and roms based on CM9 as there's a bug (?) In the way they handle rotation profiles.

The app itself is great and the writer is very friendly and helpful.

[Nook Color General] doncaruana:
I've used CM7 for a while now. I've got the AOKP build of ICS on my NC now. But, given the various limitations the nook has hardware wise (no camera, no mic, limited CPU/memory, no actual location services), what advantage do ICS or JB even give to the nook color? I mean, yeah, it's the latest and greatest. But, after using ICS for a bit, I'm not sure I understand what the true benefit is to running it (or even JB) vs just using cm7.

Now, as I eagerly await CM10, I just thought I'd throw this out. It's not a hater thing - I'm honestly curious...
[Nook Color General] leapinlar:
For most people, other than having the latest and greatest, it is for the tablet interface and ability to run apps in tablet mode.
[Nook Color General] doncaruana:
So...um...what exactly does that do for me? (sorry to be dumb about this...)

Edit: Never mind...google is my friend :)

I just wish ICS on the NC was more responsive than it is.
[Nook Color General] RASTAVIPER:
Hmmm. Examples of apps not playing in tablet mode before?
[Nook Color General] zetlorf:
Yes, we all hope that at least JB will be more faster/smoother than GB. But i doubt it will be faster, as for now the CM9 (ICS in development) is much slower than GB (CM7).
[Nook Color General] MISRy:

[Nook Color General] leapinlar:

[Nook Color General] e.mote:
I'm content with CM7. Thanks to mrg666 for his KANG build. I use the NC for e-reading, light web surf, and some casual games.

I would like to see CM10 on the NC--thanks to devs who are still here. Still, I'm disappointed that two years on in a fast-moving market, that the only substantive improvement mentioned here is "tablet mode" which only impacts a few apps. Sure, JB has more incremental improvements, but no must-have feature. Where's multi-user acct? Built-in networking?

Instead, in Nexus 7 we're treated to basically a better Kindle Fire clone. It's less of a tablet computer and more of a handheld kiosk to Google wares. A pure consumption device.

I'm actually looking forward to the next Nook. Microsoft has invested $300+ mil into B&N's "NewCo" and the ostensible offspring may well be a Windows RT tablet. I hope that it comes into fruition this year, and that it can be hacked into a full-blown WinRT device. Sad as it is to say, at this point I have more hopes for WinRT of being a full-fledged OS than Android.
[Nook Color General] leapinlar:
I didn't say anything about problems. What I was saying was that those apps can run in phone mode or tablet mode depending on what device or device settings they run on. And that is what some people like about CM9 in tablet GUI, the ability to have some apps display in tablet mode.

For instance, the Kindle app displays in tablet mode if the ics system is in tablet GUI. If I switch the ics system to phone GUI, Kindle switches to phone mode. You can tell the difference by how the Kindle displays. In landscape in tablet mode, it has multiple window panes. One is stationary and one is scrollable. In phone mode, it is just one big scrollable window.

And for YouTube, the biggest difference is in tablet mode it tries to play HD videos in true HD and fails because of our lack of video HW acceleration. If you switch the system to phone GUI, YouTube switches to phone mode and plays HD videos in HQ successfully. In this case running it in tablet mode is a disadvantage.

This last case is why ParanoidAndroid is nice. You can have the ics system in tablet GUI and tell YouTube to run in phone mode and you can watch HD videos in HQ successfully.
[Nook Color General] Hephaestus_:
After a few mods, my nook is almost butter smooth. ;P Here's the things I did:

Installed latest opengl cm9 build by eyeballer.

Overclocked processor to 1.2ghz with ondemand governor for general use.

Made voltage tweak of 1 tick higher than stock on the highest processor stepping using nook tweaks.

Set highest stepping to 1.325ghz using nook tweaks.

Made high performance profile in setcpu that would only activate the 1.325 ghz when certain 3d games were opened using governor performance.

Blocked certain system apps/processes that would not be used by the nook such as the calling one to free up system ram using Gemini app manager.

Ran the v6 supercharger script to optimize system set to the max performance setting for 512hp.

Ran and turned on all other performance tweaks in the supercharger script.

Made a widget using script manager to autorun fastengineflush.sh from v6 supercharger that cleans clutter and fees up ram.

Switched launcher to adwlauncher ex to remove scroll lag between home screens.

And that is how you can have a buttery smooth experience on the nook. ;P

Best of luck,
[Nook Color General] Hephaestus_:
Sadly, Microsoft has locked the bootloader on their Windows 8 tablets so you can't modify the system because of their secure boot uefi that oem manufacturers are not allowed to remove. That means that all apps must be signed by Microsoft and that the only place to get software from would be the Windows 8 store. That also means that there would be no "hacks" to alter the os unless a dev. could find an exploit in the uefi before Microsoft patches it.
[Nook Color General] wangcliff:
I don't really see the benefits from ICS and JB for NC. That will just slow down NC. The most important thing is we don't know when ICS or JB will be stable on NC.
[Nook Color General] e.mote:
>Sadly, Microsoft has locked the bootloader on their Windows 8 tablets

Yes, that's the reported MS policy for WinRT devices, but policies can change. Everything is in flux at this point. Nobody knows what WinRT devices will be like. That, and the hoped-for "Nook RT" (if it happens) won't be a WinRT device proper, but one that has to make the $200 price point.

Just as Google decided to compete with KF at $200 price point, MS can do the same with B&N's Nook RT. Both MS and B&N can benefit by working together, as MS needs B&N's breadth of e-books, and B&N needs MS' content for everything else. Neither has the ecosystem to compete with Amazon/Apple/Google alone.

>I don't really see the benefits from ICS and JB for NC. That will just slow down NC.

I agree. The NC is not a fast device, and speed (and free RAM) matters most. CM7 UI is responsive enough on the NC. JB's other main appeal, Google Now, doesn't benefit NC since it has no mic.

It depends on how long Android 2.x continues to be supported. Until apps are developed solely for 4.x, I don't see a real benefit to jumping on CM10 (other than for eye-candy, which matters for some).

I doubt 2.x support to go away any time soon. By the time it does, the NC will already be a ripe old age. Even then, it will still work for its original purpose, which is an e-reader.
[Android General] nolovelust:
So I have JB on my rooted Nexus S. As usual i have deleted system apps that I don't use or like. One of them was google search AKA Google Now.

I don't like something stuck on top of my home screen and removing it on 4 hadn't cause any issues. Not this time.

Beware that if you delete velvet.apk/googlequicksearchbar from JB you loose Voice Input method on your keyboard.

It is a real bummer to tie a device core function to a service that some people might not like.

This is sooo cool I had to share it with u guys.

So I was one of the first ones to per order the nexus 7

When I did it charged my card but the payment did not go through because it said there was something wrong with my card (I've use this card to make all of my google payments so it was kind of odd)

I remove and re added the card and that seemed to fix it.

on the 11th it'd attempted to charge my card but it didn't go through.

A few days latter I called customer service and they told me to remove and re add the card again but that didn't helped so after an hour with customer service the guy told me to just go to a store and buy it there and they will still give me the 25 dollar gift card.

I went the next day and as soon as I come on out of the store I received an email from google letting me know that my order has been shipped, I was really mad because I would be charged again so I called customer service and they told me to just denied the package when it arrives, 10 minutes later after talking to customer service I received an email that said my order was canceled because my card could'nt be charged (I'm sure I had enough funds).

the next day I wake up AND IT WAS THERE, A BRAND NEW NEXUS 7 :D

I quickly check my bank statement and I was never even charged so I was thinking there something wrong with their ordering system

Completely inaccurate title. Google did not "give" you a free Nexus7. They accidentally shipped you one without charging you first.

That's just you trying to justify keeping the free Nexus 7 and you know it. At the end of the day, you didn't get the Nexus 7 for free in a legit way and deep down inside you know it's wrong.
[Nexus 7 General] mwalt2:
That's most likely because you don't know who's $20 bill it is. It's pretty easy to know that the Nexus 7 that showed up at his door belongs to the Google Play Store unless he pays for it.

If they handled this launch properly and got their house in order, it wouldn't have happened. Chances are it's probably got a raised screen so will need an RMA anyhow.
[Nexus 7 General] phonic:
So you are trying to say that stealing from a company that you disagree with is OK, since they have enough money already?

I just want to make sure that I'm understanding your justification for stealing correctly.

If you don't like Google or their (supposed) business tactics, you can simply chose not do business with them. Don't buy their equipment, don't use their 'free' services, etc.

If you want to be a thief, fine, that's your prerogative. But don't try and spew out some pretentious crap about how it's OK to do so.
[Nexus 7 General] kiewee3:
Oops! I didn't mean to 'troll' or 'flame' I'm just saying that if I got a free nexus 7 then I would keep it.

Think about it this way...if everyone said to keep the nexus 7 and then ONE person came out and said "return it, that's stealing", wouldn't they be a troll too? If you are against the popular opinion are you considered a troll? And don't reply to this saying "well stealing is wrong! :/"
[Nexus 7 General] Eagle1337:
IT is theft.
[Nexus 7 General] phonic:
And another one...

The only person who sounds bitter is you. "Chances are it's probably got a raised screen so will need an RMA anyhow."

If you go to a store and buy something, but when you get home realize that the cashier forgot to ring you up on some of your items, would you blame the cashier? Or the store for hiring them? Or the security system/people for not stopping you and checking your receipt? Or your car manufacturer for not building in a feature to keep your car door locked until you verified you paid for everything?

Mistakes happen. It's a fact of life. Just because you don't like the way Google handled the release, in your opinion, doesn't mean that you should throw morality and ethics out the window because it's more convenient for you.

I really don't care if someone accidentally got an N7 for free. Or if they decide to keep it. Again, that's their decision. But what I can't stand are the idiots who just want to make justification and rationalizations for theft. Because that's what it is.

This is what the law on Theft says in the UK when you receive something you have not paid for that is a mistake of the vendor:

Where a person gets property by another’s mistake, and is under an obligation to make restoration (in whole or in part) of the property or its proceeds or of the value thereof, then to the extent of that obligation the property or proceeds shall be regarded (as against him) as belonging to the person entitled to restoration, and an intention not to make restoration shall be regarded accordingly as an intention to deprive that person of the property or proceeds.

So under UK law this is theft.

[Nexus 7 General] ExploreMN:
It would only be a scam if it was intentional. This was just an error. The problem though...at some point Google will likely come across the error, see that the package was not refused, and push the charge through. The smart (and moral/ethical) thing would have been to refuse the package. If Google does charge him, what can he say? By accepting the package he acknowledged he wanted to buy it. No credit card company on the planet would reverse the charge.

[Nexus 7 General] pxlitup:
In the same way that shoplifting and burglary are totally different.

By your logic the immorality of theft is measured by how much they'll miss it, e.g. how many units of the product a victim is responsible for, and whether they're prepared to replace it. So it is fine to steal from a manufacturer. It is acceptable to steal from a warehouse. It is wrong to steal from a store. And it is treacherous to steal from a pedestrian.

Publicly traded companies have feelings too.
