[Nook Color General] ritibelle:
I apologize in advance if this has been asked before, but I searched and couldn't find anything.

I never rooted my Nook Color (firmware 1.4.3) because I like the simplicity of it and I only really wanted to read books on it.

However now I wanted to install other readers so that I could read other formats without having to convert to epub or pdf.

I tried downgrading to 1.2.0 but it still doesn't let me install other apps.

What would be my best option?

Is there any way to do this without rooting?

I'm not afraid of tweaking, I just prefer the stock firmware to use as an ebook reader.

Best regards,

Rita

Best Option According to me

Rita,

Sincerely the best option for you right now is to run CyanogenMod 7 off an SD Card, a port of Android 2.3 for your device. I have a Nook Color too. I used to love stock but the lack of functionality made me install CM7. There are many easy to follow guides available on the internet. If you would like I can tell you how to install CM7 on an SD Card. That way you can enjoy both stock and CM7. Cheers!
[Nook Color General] leapinlar:
You can do what the prior user recommended (CM7 on SD) and also go back to the latest stock software on internal memory and root it. Then you can decide which you want to use. If you look in my tips thread linked in my signature you will see how to flash the lastest unrooted stock software with CWM recovery. Look at my item A12. Then you can root it with Manual Nooter 5.08.20. You can add other apps with unrooted stock but only from the B&N app store. If you want more apps than that, you must root.
[Nook Color General] ritibelle:
@satya-1998: I've already tried installing CM7 on a sd card and I liked it, just not for reading. As an ebook reader I really enjoy the simplicity of the stock firmware.

@leapinlar: I've already put the latest firmware on the nook (1.4.3) and I think rooting will be my best option. Will rooting and using manual nooter 5.8.20 keep the B&N functions and allow me to install other apps?

Do you think following this thread (http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1494901) would be the way to go?

Thank you both for your help, Rita
[Nook Color General] leapinlar:
Yes to both.
[Nook Color General] ritibelle:
I did it!!! :D

And as far as I can tell everythig is working great.

Now I just have to learn how to work with the android part of it.

Thank you very much for the help, Rita
[Nook Color General] bobstro:
What did you do? Bootable uSD or root?
[Nook Color General] ritibelle:
I followed the instructions in this thread (http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?p=22480277), so rooted and used manual nooter 5.8.20.
[Nook Color General] satya-1998:
Ok, now that you have rooted your nook, you can keep it at stock and also keep CM7 on the SD card. If you like the B&N reading, download the Nook app for android onto cm7. Cheers...
[Nook Color General] dparrothead1:
Congrats!!!! You will never go back to straight stock!!!!

q

do you have a link for loading cm7 on a sd card so you could boot between stock and cm7. my firmware is 1.4.3

Use this simplified guide.

You can try a dual boot from

But I recommend going with booting off an SD card. Much easier, and although it can be a PITA swapping SD cards, you dont run the risk of losing partition space, or having a problem if you have to go to BN for whatever reason.

lol :D

if u mean a radio as in the OP for that rom "Lastest radio recommended" then probably yes. iv flashed rom's without having the "recommended" radio and had no problems but u might aswell flash the lastest radio coz most roms now recommend it. its easy to change anyway, just flash via fastboot commands.

I have the Sony LWW and my colleague got the Xperia U.

Now I lost the earphones that came with my phone so he gave me his.

Now I have the earphones that come with the Xperia U and tried them on my LWW.

But when I insert them into the headphone jack of my phone it gives me a message:

"Accessory is not supported" and they don't work, when I play a track it plays trough the speakers even though the earphones are plugged in.

I find it odd they don't work because it's the same earphone as mine (at least it looks the same) and they're Sony branded.

Anyone got a clue/ solution why they don't work?

Thanks in advance.
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] iamsuperuser:
Xperia U comes bundled with MH750 earphones which only support 2012 range sony mobiles. LWW is a 2011 range sony(ericsson) mobile. LWW comes bundled with MH650, you can find it on net if you want to purchase.

[Galaxy Tab Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cruisen17:
I installed a local news app which is optimised for resolution 1200x800. I was unable to download through Google play due to this but found the apk in a forum. It works sort of well except that the bottom of some articles are cut off. I was wondering if anyone had any ideas on how to overcome this maybe some sort off app that stretches the articles ?

Edit

Got it working perfectly though I used an app called 'blade buddy' which actually had 2 settings which I could change the LCD density. I changed both to 150 and the Age app plus my keyboard works perfectly. I could see one of the density settings changed to 159 so that must be the the one I changed through the LCD resolution app. Thanks for your responses hope these posts help somebody else.

Was you stock 2.3.5, 2.3.6 or on the ics leak before trying to fxz?
[Motorola Atrix 2] Fall of Enosis:
Please search!

Ok, so this is how you fix your issue:

If you want to flash the MiUI ROM you NEED TO BE ON ICS (4.0.4) FIRST!

If you are on Gingerbread (2.3.5 or 2.3.6) the install the ICS leak for YOUR CARRIER.

There are a couple of different types of ICS leaks out there depending on your carrier, install the proper one for your phone.

Once you get on ICS the MiUI ROM is installed the BOOTMENU NOT RSD LITE. It's not even the right file type for RSD lite.

I will not give links as you can find them your self with the search bar. I would personally advise against the MiUI ROM as it is VERY buggy right now, and honestly man, if you don't know what I'm talking about you SHOULDN'T BE MESSING WITH YOUR PHONE.

Especially if you were trying to flash the damn thing through RSD lite... for pete's sake.

READ. SEARCH. RESEARCH.

Have you checked the md5-sum of the .zip file of your downloaded rom? Maybe the download was faulty... Happened to me twice on cm-nightlies.

I have been having the same issue ever since switching to CM10, I have been installing nightlies hoping it will end, but appears to be isolated. Would it help to manually flash boot for each ROM? It cuts off randomly and won't turn on unless charged by a wall charger, or other high-power input (doesn't turn on or charge from car outlet). It doesn't appear to be caused by an app.
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] adytum:

If you try to go stock with Odin, and the issue is exactly the same, I think you should consider it could be battery malfunction.

[HTC Sensation] RealityClash:
Hey guys,

Sorry to be a noob but I'm completely new to the idea of installing custom ROMs so was wondering if someone wouldn't mind explaing what exactly is involved in installing a custom ROM (bruce2728's CM10 ROM) onto a completely stock HTC Sensation?

So far from everything I've read I need to root and S-OFF my phone as well as unlock the bootloader and back up the stock ROM (for warranty purposes) before I'm able to install a new ROM. Am I missing anything here?

So far I've tried to unlock the bootloader but can't even download the software from htcdev.com because the website keeps logging me out as soon as I log in...

Anyway I've read through a few forums and articles on how the whole process works but I'm finding it very confusing because there seems to be multiple ways of doing each part and the files you seem to need vary depending on exactly which version of the Sensation you have.

Anyway if someone wouldn't mind explaining each step or linking me to somewhere that does I would greatly appreciate it :)

In terms of which model of Sensation I have, HTC have told me that its an open version handset thats been customized in France if that makes any difference. And here's my current software info:

Android version: 4.0.3

HTC Sense Version: 3.6

Software number: 3.33.401.6

Kernel version: 3.0.16-g31a4fc7 htc-kernel@u18000-build-144 #1 SMP PREEMPT

Baseband version: 11.76A.3504.00U_11.24A.3504.31_M

Build number: 3.33.401.6 CL391535 release-keys

Browser version: WebKit/534.30

Let me know if I've missed anything :)
[HTC Sensation] malybru:
Hi,

There is an huge amount of good information in my sig(☺ A great starting point for all new Sensation owners ☺)

My suggestion would be :

ganesh or kgs for root and s-off

You have 3.33 firmware,so you would then be good to go.

:)
[HTC Sensation] RealityClash:
Thanks for the info :)

So if I follow the steps on this page I will have S-OFF, unlocked the bootloader and rooted my device so all I would have left to do would be to install the actual ROM correct?

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1661631

And if so what is the best way to go about installing the ROM afterwards?

EDIT: After reading through that page again I realized that there seem to be two completely different tools, you can use. Do you have to use both of them or just one?

i.e. could I just use the 'new one click root tool' on my phone while its completely stock then would I be able to install a new ROM on straight after?
[HTC Sensation] malybru:
Hi,

I gave you 2 guides for you to choose from.

The one you chose is from ganesh,and if you follow all of that,then,that is all you have to do.

Once you are rooted and s-0ff,then,just place the ROM of your choice on the sd card ,choose it in recovery and run it.

I forgot to mention the custom recovery.

In the list of guides I gave you,look for one by joaquinf.

In that thread you will find 3 methods to install 4EXT recovery.

again choose the best method for you and install it.

then,you will be good to go.

:)
[HTC Sensation] ganeshp:
hmm it seems you are getting confused with some terms ..ill try to explain them briefly

ROOT: its a feature of ROM ..when you have root ..you can completely control the ROM ..you can remove even system apps (the apps that came by default) and change internal stuff

SOFF: it unlocks the complete internal partition of sensation ..that means you can modify any thing anywhere ...thus you can install custom roms, custom recoveries,bootloader,radio etc etc

HTC-DEV: its a feature provided by HTC ..which unlocks some partitions which are quite enough for installing custom roms and custom recoveries ..but during custom rom installations you need to do couple of extra steps to get it completely working

now ..by default all partitions of internal memory are locked .. thus to ROOT your phone ..we need to have unlocked system partition ..which can be attained by HTC-DEV unlock or SOFF (so the one click root requires either of them as per-requisite)

now if you want to decide what to do ..do check this post
[HTC Sensation] RealityClash:
Ok so I started using this guide: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1661631

Any ideas as to what I've done wrong? I made sure that the HTC drivers were installed before I started the process
[HTC Sensation] RealityClash:
Ahhh crap. After having a look around the forums and on youtube etc as well as trying to install adb through the android SDK and still not having any luck (the ControlBear program ended up freezing aswell) I decided to close the ControlBear program but now whenever I try starting my phone it just loads into a black screen with the menu bar... I hope I haven't completely ruined my phone...
[HTC Sensation] RealityClash:
Nevermind, I finally manged to get it S-OFF and rooted :D

I managed to do a factory reset which enabled me to use my phone properly again so then I restarted the S-OFF process again after rebooting my computer and what do ya know, it works!

Thanks so much guys :)

Now I just need to work out how to get 4EXT working and then install CM10 :D
