[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] TheAngelus:
Hello, couldn't see anything specific when i searched but im looking for what radio to use on my uk t-mobile desire hd, ive got AR7.0.4 rom installed. I've read that the recommended radio may not actually the best depending on where you are.

I had 7.0.3 for ages and only just flashed the newer one, im getting odd mobile signal and often i have no signal at all unless i reboot the phone, searching for available networks times out or gives an error. wifi is fine.

Ive also started to not receive certain text messages from people, but they seem to get mine fine.

My current radio version is 12.28b.60.140eU_26.03.02.26M
[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] maxxcool7421:
So, I am looking at getting a Off the shelf nook tablet, and want to build a SD card to run cm7 or cm9 from it. but i have questions on apps, compatibility, speed and overclocking

1) the most important to me is the apps. if i build the SD cm7 boot card, and boot from it will :

a)google play be able to install and work with it?

b)will there still be apps missing because of the generic build.prop file

c)is there a way to export a build.prop from a same size (screen density) similar cpu/gpu and import it to make missing apps work ?

d)failing question c is there any way to get every app's apk file for the nook device ? (ie a google play link to apk ?)

2) on a class 10 sd card's fast enough to still be "snappy" ?

3) on sd cards, UHS class 1 capable?

4) i saw a overclocking img that can be dropped on top of the stock cm7... the question i have is how far is considered normal for overclocking success? meaning, 100mhz is not worth the time, 300mhz over would be a nice boost but what are the chances of getting 300mhz stable for plugged in gaming.

5) codecs play a lot in playback of 720p mkv and mp4 files.... how well does the stock cm7 image play moderate bitrate 720p rips ?

6) cm9.... how usable ? i need it to be idiot proof for the wife... if its "touchy"... i will opt for cm7...

7) cm7 perm install... sooo many links, broken links, private files, multiple images with different caveats... and of course the issue with build.prop... any recent updates and less link-happy guides that dont require reading all 250 pages to make sure there is not a secret sauce img file update that doesn't faff your device? and how stable ... is stable ???

thoughts ??? help???
[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] lag0matic:
I'm still a noob myself. But I purchased a 16gb NT last week, and within about 20 minutes had it up, rooted, and running CM7 from the internal memory card.

The process isnt difficult, and CM7 Seems to work well, HD video playback is fluid, and mostly glitch free. The Play store seems to work fine (Cant download chrome for Android, but Dolphin Browser HD seems fine!)

Sound input/output works fine, voice search, ect.

There are some (Quite minor, IMHO) bugs with CM7, but I wouldn't call it "unuseable"

CM9, which I also tried, had more ... issues.. Sleep of death unless underclocked, no HD video playback, sound input not working.

I'll link the guide, and the Support thread I used for my CM7 install.

I also, during one of my "oh crap, I bricked it" moments (Dont mess with ROM managers recovery.. espeically half awake.) Ran CM7 from SD, It seemed snappy enough, but I only used it to copy/replace a few files that I needed so I cant give a full report.

This is the guide I used

This is the support thread.

Hope this helps!
[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] tobdaryl:
1.

a) yes

b) yes

c) yes you can edit build prop (many threads) you'll never get everything on any single device

d) no nor any other device

2. I don't find anything above class 4 faster except when writing to it from pc

3. ?

4. As you have noticed at this time most roms are still on the edge (they are constantly being improved), I would not push them with overclocking. You'll pay a price for little gain!

5. ?

6. Even the stock software is not idiot proof! (my opinion)

7. ?

The question marks are things I can't or at least didn't answer. I'm sorry but you have a task ahead of you. As you will see with time, rom XYZ operates perfectly for me and when you flash it you have a brick.

Any modification to your nook you should weigh and accept that possibility. Anything can and will happen.

The folks here on XDA can do anything. Sometimes others don't feel that way but the right person has not put in their two cents at the time of that decision.

Read this thread before you begin. http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1826516

CM7 beta internal is the only way to go at this time, atleast for my use. Reading, netflix, surfing and most games. Easy to install and very stable. Just follow the instructions given in Celtic's post and you shouldn't have any problems. Good luck.

Thanks everyone, i bought a 16bg nook tablet (for the 1gb ram) and booted from the SD successfully. but now have a couple more questions i will put in a new post.. cheers!
[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] Tel864:
You don't really need a class 10 card. The best card you could use would be a Sandisk class 4. The class 10 is probably going to give you problems down the road if you're running CM7 off it.
[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] maxxcool7421:
oh ? details please ?
[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] Cubanluke88:
class 10 cards are for like...video recording, i.e. lots of data read/write at high speeds...for normal functionality, they are, in my experience often slower and buggy

stick to a class 4 card
[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] maxxcool7421:
Am I dumb !?!??!

I go to rom manager, it asks a question on which rom manger to install, not sure which one to pick (i assume 2.2.x) but in either case when i go to "install rom" and select the zip file. it reboots to a splat and tells me to call B&n ....

??

Guide:eek:nce you have CWM on screen with the downloaded update zip archive on your sd card, Follow these simple steps

ME: istalled to a sd card abd booted from it right now

Guide: 1. Goto install zip from sdcard

Me: go to apps > rom manager > install rom from sd card

Guide: 2. Choose zip from sdcard ( if CWM hasn't recognized your SD card you need to eject it and re insert it once or twice, sometimes you need to go to mounts and unmount SD, pop it out and back in then select mount sd)

Me: done

Guide: 3. choose the CM7-TEAM-B-BETA1-signed.zip

ME: selected

Guide: 4. scroll down and select Yes - Install CM7-TEAM-B-BETA1-signed.zip

Me: done

Guide: 5. sit back for a couple of minutes while the installation is carried out

Me: splat on reboot...

do i need to sign into the android market and install a recovery tool ? there is wording to that when selecting which version of recovery ...

That’s CM7 installed, next you need to prepare the rest of the device
[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] lag0matic:
\

Right, sounds like you messed something up a bit trying to use ROM manager. I always install my roms from a CWM SD card.

First, lets try the simple solution.

Boot your CWM SD

Install update from SD card

From the CWM main menu, and choose "Wipe data/Factory reset"

Also from the main menu, choose, "Wipe Cache"

Next, go to "advanced" and choose "wipe dalvik cache"

Now, go back to the main menu, choose install zip from sd, choose zip from sd, and install your

CM7 Zip.

If your CM7 did not include the gapps, you'll also want to install thoes as well (That will give you google play and other google base apps)

Now you should be able to reboot into your new CM7 install -- if not, hold the power button down untill the system powers off, and try booting again.

Post your results!

EDIT::::

I just realized it looks like you're booting from CM7, SD version. If that's the case, instead, you need to make yourself a bootable CWM recovery card. I keep one near my NT at all times as it allows me to create backups of the entire sytem before mucking about, and makes installing new ROM's a snap!

In order to make your own CWM card, format your current SD card to wipe it out,

then follow my last post Here

That should get you a bootable CWM SD card, from there you'll want to copy over your CM7 zip file, and, if your CM7 image dosent contain the gapps, the gapps I linked in the above post (Thanks Veronica for hosting!!!)

Hope this helps!
[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] maxxcool7421:
it is bricked. /sigh/ i knew this would not be as easy as everyone claimed.

it wont come out of recovery ..

has errors in the cwm recovery page :

cant mount /cache/recovery/log

cant open /cache/recovery/log

cant mount /cache/recovery/last_log

cant open /cache/recovery/last_log

loading the cm-7-team-b-beta1-signed.zip from the install says complete but never gets past the recovery boot

#$@#$#@#!@#$@#$
[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] lag0matic:
Dont give up!

I completely -trashed- my partition tables. (Unfortunately, wiping out my serial # in the process, no more B&N factory rom for me, but I only wanted it to root anyhow)

Took me a few days, but I got it working again.

If you need, feel free to add me on skype at lag0matic ((just tell me who you are!))

6) cm9.... how usable ? i need it to be idiot proof for the wife... if its "touchy"... i will opt for cm7...CM7 beta is stable...the beta version fixed a wifi issue that the alpha version had. CM9 looks good...some issues yet with videos and SODs' I haven't tried CM10 yet.

7) cm7 perm install... sooo many links, broken links, private files, multiple images with different caveats... and of course the issue with build.prop... any recent updates and less link-happy guides that dont require reading all 250 pages to make sure there is not a secret sauce img file update that doesn't faff your device? and how stable ... is stable ???

I thought I'd start this thread to consolidate all the info on the features of the Note 10.1 for those new to Android or tablets, those who are on the fence about buying this, or those who just haven't figured out all the cool features yet :p

Here's some off the top of my head:

Pinch the keyboard to get this:

You can then move the floating and split keyboards by pushing and holding with 2 fingers.

Press and hold the settings key on the keyboard and select the T icon to switch to handwriting recognition mode.

In the keyboard settings, select "continuous input" for Swype-like functionality.

Feel free to add anything else you might find useful! :)
[Galaxy Note 10.1 General] troed:
Any clue how I could force the keyboard to appear ?

Background of my question is that "Logmein" desktop -version works nicely in stock browser, chrome and opera but I can' t call up he keyboard once I want to type on the remote pc .......
[Galaxy Note 10.1 General] freedomispopular:
Just found this out: the screen turns on when you pull the pen out.
[Galaxy Note 10.1 General] fmf.post:
Thanks

Had no idea of the swipe style option available on the keyboard...
[Galaxy Note 10.1 General] floiancu:
Here's a video of tips and tricks I've just whipped up. -> http://youtu.be/tC7z5PCdGLE

This is what I've discovered so far: smart stay, motion gestures, keyboard layouts (displayed by OP), handwriting input, nav keys extra functions, S Pen button, mini apps, screenshot key alternate uses and a demonstration of power, four apps running at the same time all of them shown on the screen at once!

[Galaxy Note 10.1 General] bazznet:
I am also wondering if it's possible to do this with the keyboard, if you find something, please keep us updated! Thanks
[Galaxy Note 10.1 General] FPtje:
For a keyboard to pop up it needs to have an input field. it will be useless if you pop it up without anything listening to the keyboard.
[Galaxy Note 10.1 General] bazznet:
Well I have this situation where I need to press F12 to change to another page, but no input field in the page by itself. I tried clicking on the address bar to open the keyboard, but since the focus is not at the right place, it's not working. So I have a situation where it is NOT useless.

I don't know what troed wants to accomplish though.
[Galaxy Note 10.1 General] toenail_flicker:
Didn't find where you can shut it off for the whole day. Info, please?

I'm curious as well. I hate lock screens, they don't seem to have any use to me, especially on a tablet. This thing can't turn on in my pocket, I don't wear clown pants(assuming clown pants have giant clown pockets). I just installed the "No Lock" app which does the trick.

Here we go in German settings (see attachment)

Why I need the keyboard to be opened even if there is no "call it to screen" input field:

I use "logmein" now for a couple of years for only one reason: to check my patients data base in my clinic.

Once I'm logged in and the remote screen appears I can click the icons to start the program but once I want to type a name ton the remote PC he keyboard does not appear.

Of course there would be other solutions, but I tried Splashtop Remote and other similar apps which do not work since my provider protects my clinic from outside intrusion by a firewall and even after my provider opened the ports necessary to run Splashtop Remote it does not work. After testing a lot of apps in the last two years with my SGSII/III and Note LOGMEIN is the only procedure that works. Of course I could buy the Android app Logmein ignition but look at the rating of this app, the prize and comments that it works very poor if at all. And why should I buy an app when my magnificent Note10.1 can do the same with it's browser ?IF I COULD FORCE THE KEYBOARD TO APPEAR ON THE SCREEN TO TYPE ON MY REMOTE PC !!!!!!!!
[Galaxy Note 10.1 General] freedomispopular:
Go to your app drawer, then Menu > View Type, where you can change it to an alphabetical grid. That's one TouchWiz thing on my Note that annoyed the crap out of me, not being able to alphabetize the drawer, so I'm glad to see they rectified it on the 10.1.

[Galaxy Note 10.1 General] HasC:
Glad you all like it, just doing my bit for this great XDA community who I've learnt so much from.

Another reason I did the video was to show those doing "professional" reviews that they are not using /realising the usefulness of the s-pen who merely right the tablet off as a standard Galaxy tab with a pen.

Please leave comments on the video using the web link so that this feature can get more exposure.
[Galaxy Note 10.1 General] macwilson:
I'd like to be able to toggle pen/touch. I hope someone tinkers up a hack.
[Galaxy Note 10.1 General] HasC:
Not sure if this has been mentioned anywhere....

I found out by accident that if you take a screenshot using the S-pen by keeping your finger on the side button on the pen while holding it down on the screen that you want to capture, you are able to edit the screenshot straight away as a new window opens up with editing tools such as pen, crop etc, this tool does not appear if you use the screenshot button on the tablet.

As a side note, does anyone know how to bring the editing tool for images or screenshots that are stored in memory? I.e. is the editing tool described above an app that can be loaded separately?
[Galaxy Note 10.1 General] freedomispopular:
Unfortunately, no. Perhaps someone can figure out how to import Photo Editor. It's nice for simple edits, which I feel PS is a little overkill for, and a little overwhelming for those new to it.
[Galaxy Note 10.1 General] Vincent9756:
Thanks very much. The more I use this the more I like it. Takes a little practice. I also needed to adjust the recognition time. I write too slowly.

Thanks HasC, this was an amazing tutorial, it really helped me out immensely
[Galaxy Note 10.1 General] BigAtrain:
Maybe I am missing something, but can someone tell me how to write on pictures and screen shots??
[Galaxy Note 10.1 General] BarryH_GEG:
If you know you're going to write on a screenshot or manipulate it, take it by pushing the button on the S-Pen and long-pressing the display. When the screenshot comes up it's in editing mode and you can annotate it and crop it. If you capture a screen using the menu button it sends it directly to the gallery. Once it (or any other pic) is there, you can only crop it from within the gallery. If you pick edit from the menu it opens it in PS which may be more than you're looking for if you just want to write some notes or use it in something you're putting together. Use the share button and send it to S-Note where you can mark it up using easier to use tools.
[Galaxy Note 10.1 General] toenail_flicker:

When was that?
[Galaxy Note 10.1 General] toenail_flicker:
It was slight, believe me, but I had my speakers all the way up. Can't tell you exactly.
[Galaxy Note 10.1 General] HasC:
lol, I have probably become immune to these sounds as there is always something happening where I live!
[Galaxy Note 10.1 General] seventwozero:
Has anyone figured anything out for this to happen?

I have a situation where I need to input text into a Flash text field, the Note doesn't realize this and won't show the keyboard even though a cursor is blinking in the Flash field.
[Galaxy Note 10.1 General] prenedo:
Don't known if this was mentioned, long press recent apps pulls up app drawer. Probably my favorite built in 'tweak' from stock android. I actually set it up that way on my sgs3 (AOKP).
[Galaxy Note 10.1 General] stuartv:
Has anybody figured out a way to use this to write letters and numbers together, without having to tap the "123" button in the middle of your writing, then tap it again to go back to writing letters?

If I want to write "Meet me at the 7-11 after work," for example, it's a pain.
[Galaxy Note 10.1 General] HasC:
I would suggest practice writing numbers until the app recognises your number writing, I do not have any trouble writing numbers on the normal handwriting panel and rarely use the "123" tab, my biggest problem is writing a comma!

Tip - watch online flash video (youtube) On Floating browser

You guys Should really try

https://play.google.com/store/apps/...DEsImdwYy5teXdlYi5oaW5ldC5uZXQuUG9wdXBXZWIiXQ.

A pretty decent free floating browser, colour me impressed, works so well with my note. Ive got it setup right now to popup whenever i click a Youtube link, which I might add the devs video floater does a better job of, in regards to less fiddling with zooming and aligning the video, but i have'nt figured out how to play anything other then Youtube videos, but the browser does such a decent job- its a non issue,its played everything so far,and performance is surprising, to me at least

Im sure most of you will be aware of Floating apps already, but im surprised how well it works that i thought id mention it

Edit: sorry Ive got the video floater as the Youtube automatic popup, not the browser, which i.use for all other flash video which I cant get working on the video floater,dont know if that a design choice on the devs part or a setting on mine
