Hey all, just a few questions and before I start getting flamed I have looked at this thread: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1860998. It's actually what brought me to this point, so even with the steps recommended in that thread my batt life is still weak(KT747), so I tried flashing the faux kernel and it does not allow you to set the cpu as low/high as the KT747 kernel. Not sure if that's a deal breaker yet as I'm new to UV and OC but I'm wondering what the best settings would be for me, I've never really had an issue with lag I seem to be able to set things right so my phone is lightning fast but the battery life still sucks. Please any help is appreciated, kernel recommendations, settings, anything and everything will help and once again for the record I've looked at the battery life thread and although it's helped I still have to plug my phone to the charger several times a day and I don't really start using it until I get home from work. Thanking you in advance.

How many hours are you getting with normal usage?

I use KT747 with ktoonservative governor with KyanROM 1.3. I do not use any special tweaks and am on LTE all day; my battery life is about 20-30 hours depending on use.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] kd5dmg:
I have CM10/KT747 with Ktoonservative/noop and uV all by 75mV. BT and wifi onall the time as well as GPS

Yesterday I had 17hours from 100 to 26% and just over 4 hours of screen time. Almost all of this was on wifi.

Today, is a little different. 9 hours from 100-41% with little less than 2 hours screen time. about 75% LTE today and 2 hours of podcast with screen off.

hope this helps.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] bravomail:
Disable LTE.

Freeze or remove unneeded apps.

Remove widgets from launcher.

Use dark background or dark theme in your apps.

Don't use live wallpapers.

Disable animations, screen rotation, WiFi search, Market notifications etc.

Play with different ROMs :p
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] Shels:
It's hard for me to say how many hours exact as I keep it plugged in when at home or work but for example I finish work at 2, by 6 or 7 if I haven't had a charge I'll probably get a notification for being at 25%, and my usual uses would be manga, possibly netflix, or music playing, haven't been playing fifa or final fantasy at which points I understand the batt getting drained like that.

And hmm maybe I'll try that just UV everything by 75 and see how it goes, I'll keep you guys posted. If I got battery life like that I couldn't really complain.

Thanks for the feedback guys, anyone have any uv settings for me to try out like the above referenced thread? I'm gonna go back on KT747 today and see how I feel again, I've tried the faux and the kernels that come stock with CM10, etc. I do turn off LTE, Guess I'll try freezing unneeded apps, I didn't think widgets would be a huge factor how else do decorate our phones and make it look all purty? May as well go back to touchwiz if widgets are a no no lol, then again widgets like crazy on touchwiz too. I use Justin's inverted gapps and do use a dark and gloomy theme/wallpaper lol. What rom would you guys recommend? I personally want to try the Jellybean Leak, but don't want to leave CM10 as I've got wallet working and all my other lovelies.

I got tired of battery management so I bought an extended battery.. Qcell... It's pretty nice. Doesn't make the phone much bigger then if you had a case on it.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] ewingr:
Me too. If I have to turn everything off, why have a smart phone?

I got the Hyperion, which has the NFC in the battery.

AS of this moment, my phone 18% after 1 day, 18 hours and 26 min. Only 2 hours 21 min of screen time. I had it playing Tune in radio today while painting my garage, for about 6 hours. BT, WiFi, and GPS on all the time. Not a lot of talk time used.

Interestingly after testing on both Ktoonsez's kernel, and Faux, I am getting better battery life with Stock kernel. I am on the Aria ROM (a TW based ROM), and that helped my battery quite a bit.

Been following that thread. Not many people can take UV that low. I can't hardly lower mine at all. In fact, when I install his Kernels, first thing I have to do is raise voltages from what he ships stock. I"m not the only one. Some folks can't even boot.

You're lucky your phone handles it.

But I"m happy with my extended battery. When I finally plugged it in, I was at 2 days, 3 hours and 12% left.

[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] goober0122:
I just picked up a US Verizon Galaxy S3 16gb and I am on the fence about rooting and the like. I have always been into tinkering and wanted to start learning to create ROMs. I did so back in Windows Phone 6.5, but I haven't done anything Android as of yet other than app development (and I barely have time to learn that). My question is with the possibility of the Jelly Bean OTA coming out very soon and I can only assume that the exploits that have helped the developers to this point will be patched.

I just want to know if I need to root and change the bootloader now or if it would be a safe bet to wait. Any help would be appreciated!

Firstly don't flash anything from this forum, this is for the international model, NOT the us/Verizon model.

[Nook Touch General] Sandman333:
I spent several hours over the weekend rooting, unrooting, and re-rooting my new NST. Each time I rooted it, I ended up with a touchscreen problem where touches registered with the wrong column.

For example: when trying to use the backspace key, 'h' would also register. When trying to use 'p', 'e', or 'r', 'y' would also register. Both the key that I wanted and the central key would indicate a keypress (turn black) but only one of them would register in the text box. This is entirely dependent on software, but it's something that is cleared with the 8x failed boot restore and not with the two bottom buttons restore.

I have tried both TouchNooter and MinimalTouch twice. My latest attempt was MinimalTouch:

Start with a clean NST with software 1.0.1

Install 1.1 update (keyboard still works)

Follow MinimalTouch procedure

NST is rooted and android home screen is accessible, however, the keyboard no longer functions properly

Perform reset (hold bottom two buttons on startup)

Button Saver is gone, android home screen is not accessible, keyboard still does not function properly

Perform 8x reboot restore

Keyboard functions perfectly

Has anyone dealt with this before? I couldn't find anything with the search function.
[Nook Touch General] Sandman333:
Though this thread appears to be doing nothing, I will at least let you guys know of the current idea:

I have gone back and checked the touchscreen after each step in the procedure, and appears like the 1.1.2 update causes the problem.

Without any rooting or funky installs:

Perform 8-reboot reset

Touchscreen works fine, SW 1.0.1

Install 1.1.2

Touchscreen is impaired, SW 1.1.2

Perform 8-reboot reset

Touchscreen works fine, SW 1.0.1

Did the 1.1 update include a change in the touchscreen sensitivity?

How do I ensure that the IR sensors are clean? A shot of compressed air?

Should I just call B&N/sears and try to get a replacement that functions properly with the update?
[Nook Touch General] Sandman333:
I believe that I have determined the cause of my touchscreen difficulty:

The front bezel of my NST is not entirely glued down. I noticed that the spacing was irregular between the eink display, the black (really dark) plastic layer, and the top matte gray layer.

Squeezing my NST temporarily blocks the issue (until the glue re-expands)

The software updates must change the touchscreen sensitivity to some extent, causing the poor tolerance in my particular NST to result in inaccurate touchscreen response.

I'll be talking to the manufacturer or the seller (Sears) soon about a replacement unit.

I hope noone else has to figure their way through this with a brand new nook!
[Nook Touch General] Forthe55:
Sorry for resurrecting a death thread. But my nook simple touch (which was rooted and had button saviour etc), slowly started having problems with touch. Now since 2 days, touch screen isn't working anymore, no matter how much cleaning I do to the bezels. I can't even open it due to the slider lock screen. Don't know what to do. I would be happy to settle with a button-based navigation, all I want to do is to read epubs. Any help greatly appreciated. I can prob for problems. I have a rooted nst1 which I haven't tinkered since 2012.

If this isn't the right place, I will start a new thread.

TIA
[Nook Touch General] nmyshkin:
Have you tried swiping two fingers across the screen from right to left? This is not my original idea but someone else long ago delivered me from your situation with this simple tip. If I ever knew the explanation, I have forgotten it. Probably something with the multi-touch kernal. It will even work on an unresponsive lock screen. I still use it on occasion, so something triggers the behavior, but it is generally infrequent.

If that doesn't work to restore functionality then something more dire has happened.
[Nook Touch General] Renate:
Your swipe lockscreen may present a problem.

I don't see any entry in the settings on my NST, so I don't know how to disable it.

You can download my Touch-1.0.apk from the signature.

That will help you debug the tricky IR paths.

All the lines should be light gray, darker lines indicate an occlusion.

The corners are always difficult and you may have a line or two dark.

The problems are either dirt on the bezel or the bezel/filter/display coming unglued.

You can install and run it (without a launcher or touch screen):

C:\>adb install Touch-1.0.apk
C:\>adb shell am start -n com.temblast.touch/.Touch
[Nook Touch General] Forthe55:
I am sure that my nook is rooted , but adb isn’t working. May be usb debugging isn’t on. The problem is that I can’t even unlock it past the “drag to unlock” screen. Now I have to find out how to enable adb without having a working touchscreen to install the touch1.apk.

The two finger swipe isn’t working. I used to draw a single finger across the borders clockwise, which used to help calibrate the touch , not working anymore.
[Nook Touch General] Renate:
Well, you should be able to tell.

There are three ways to interact with a running Nook:

Touch screen

ADB over USB or WiFi

Hardware root console

You seem to say that the first two don't work.

You can also try a factory reset or recovery.

There is the whole OmapLink thread that describes how to unbrick an NST.

Here is the middle of the thread, you might need to read before and after:

https://xdaforums.com/nook-touch/general/root-nook-glowlight-t2853056/page6
[Nook Touch General] Forthe55:
I did a factory reset and the nook is at startup screen with the NEXT button, which obviously can’t be pressed. So the touch issue is definitely “hardware-related “. Few days back I travelled to a hot and humid place , carrying my nook and the soft rubber part in the front of the bezel, started coming of. No matter how much I clean the bezel , this time touch isn’t coming back. I am wondering whether there’s any way to disassemble and readjust the ir sensor for touch.
[Nook Touch General] Renate:
It's stuck together with the standard super-double-stick tape.

It's hypersensitive to the slightest bending up or down of any of the layers.

Without ADB and diagnostics (like Touch-1.0.apk) it's impossible to figure out which bit of the edge is out of whack.

It sounds like you only have two options:

Get the hardware console working with a 1.8V level shifter and a UART.

(Easy for me, may not be easy for you.)

Use OmapLink to boot an image that has ADB running (like Noogie or CWMR)

and enable ADB on your main image.
[Nook Touch General] Forthe55:
I remember rooting it in 2012 with some image burned on my SD card. Is there a way to again root with the help of an SD card without involving touching the screen with adb enabled rom. That way I can install the diagnostic app and dismantle it to prob further.
[Nook Touch General] Renate:
Sorry, it's been so long that I forget all this stuff.

Yeah, if you put Noogie on an SD card, I believe that it will boot from there.

With the OmapLink and Windows 10 it can be a bear sometimes to get the three (all the same) drivers working.

Windows 10 is really crappy on recognizing/capturing USB devices that appear briefly.

I can't get W10 to see 0451/d00e

My Raspberry Pi grabs it immediately:

[ 60.061477] usb 1-1.3: new high-speed USB device number 4 using dwc_otg
[ 60.202744] usb 1-1.3: New USB device found, idVendor=0451, idProduct=d00e

[ 60.202774] usb 1-1.3: Manufacturer: Texas Instruments
[ 63.348937] usb 1-1.3: USB disconnect, device number 4

It appears for 3 seconds from a cold power up, that's too quick for W10 to do anything.
[Nook Touch General] Forthe55:
I saw a video on YouTube on screen replacement, with complete disassembly and assembly. Opened the nst , took out the screen from the bezel (keeping the screen and the aluminium metal frame intact, too much sticky tape there), wiped everything clean, reassembled everything back. Still the same problem. I am wondering, even if I somehow get to install and run the diagnostic app, what kind of hardware alterations we need to do. Since the infrared touch LEDs are on the back of the motherboard, what kind of alignment would be necessary.

Is it to the metal frame or the plastic bezel, do we need to tinker?
[Nook Touch General] Renate:
Did you use new tape?

I think that everything has to be really tight and old tape seems to leave gaps.

There is also the possibility that the MSP340 has lost its mind.

I'll have to look at my oldest NST.
[Nook Touch General] Forthe55:
I haven't detached the screen from the metal frame. But the screen attachment to the front bezel seems to be attached to a plastic ribbon which was partially coming out of the front frame. It was sticky so I reattached the screen/metal frame back to it the front plastic part. Now when I see the screen up front, the bezel space/gap between the screen and the black plastic part is uneven. I don't thing that can be repaired as the front black part is disintegrating. Three of my four page turn buttons are no more attached to the frame, I have kept them there with tape.
[Nook Touch General] Renate:
Well, I completely cleaned with Goo-Be-Gone and isopropyl alcohol the bezel, the filter and the display.

I redid everything with 4mm Tesa film: https://www.microcenter.com/product/507366/tesa-double-sided-tape-4-mm-wide

The horizontal spans (except for the corners) are good, the vertical spans are still problematical.

You can lightly press and warp the bezel and things go in and out.

I think that I'm throwing in the towel on this one.

Reasons to dump the NST: Android 2.1, 256M RAM, OMAP3621 not being further developed by B&N

Reasons to keep the NST: Only Nook with a bare eInk (no backlight layer, no capacitive layer)
[Nook Touch General] Forthe55:
Don’t know about the filter, but the bezel looks very fragile to handle. I also believe that the time has come to retire it. But what I liked the most about nst was it’s screen and ability to side load books via wifi. I had gmail and opera mini installed on it. All I needed was to send a link to gmail to download the book, after the Dropbox support was gone. I am searching for a similar ebook reader. Can’t decide between Kindle paper white(which is available locally) and nook glow light 3(which has to be imported). Any suggestions welcome.
[Nook Touch General] Renate:
Well, the "filter" or "lens" or "light pipe" is what I'm calling the flimsy green translucent piece.

I've never even looked at the Kindles. I don't want to get involved with that whole ecosystem.

The Glow3 is physically almost the same as the NST.

I've got enough devices with browsers on them.

I use my Nooks with WiFi off and sync with USB (ADB & AdbSync).
