[Nook Color General] joeindallas:
Too much of a rookie to post in dev thread, but maybe this is a better spot. I tried the ParanoidAndroid rom to see if it solved my biggest issue with CM9 - I want the Kindle app to look like it did in CM7. I had no luck there, but the first page or two of that thread got me thinking - it talked about eliminating the need for a hacked version of apps like the Kindle app to get tablet/phone GUI according to the users preference. That app is the only one I have an issue with, so can anyone point me to where I might find a "modded" version of the Kindle app for Android? Basically I want smaller margins than are currently available on ICS/CM9 on my Nook Color (same problem on my Acer Iconia A100 running ICS)

Thanks for any pointers.
[Nook Color General] leapinlar:
Two things. First, the latest version of the Kindle app gives you margin control in tablet mode. Second, you can use ParanoidAndroid and under PA app settings you can tell PA to set Kindle with the phone GUI and 240dpi. Kindle then thinks it is on a phone and gives you the same margin controls you had on CM7.
[Nook Color General] joeindallas:
leapinlar,

Thanks very much for the reply. I tried the latest version - it gives control, but I still can't shrink the margins enough. Thanks for the PA pointers - I tried it a couple of times - one time it was very sluggish and I couldn't even get to the point of changing PA settings (on a microSD card - it was probably a very slow one and not too suitable for booting from). The second time, I changed a bunch of settings, but with no method to my madness. Now that I know what should work - I'll try again and use a better card.

Thanks and I'll report back.
[Nook Color General] leapinlar:
In PA, experiment with the dpi setting for Kindle. As you reduce the dpi, the fonts get smaller and margins narrower. Then you need to raise the font size in Kindle to compensate to get right margins/font size.

If you cannot get the margins set the way you like them, there are two sites where you can get old versions of Kindle that do not have the tablet GUI built in. Look for a pre 3.x version.

[Nook Color General] joeindallas:
So I played with this some this weekend. My install of PA seemed to reach steady-state and was working pretty well. When I lower the DPI settings, the margins shrink, but ever since I installed PA I can't get to the menu selections from within the Kindle App - so I can't change the fonts. (I loaded button savior and nothing happens when I hit the menu button from there) I loaded several different versions. I also installed a 2.x version from freewarelovers.com and although it said the correct version it behaved just like the latest as far as margins go. (I know I've used 2.x in the past to get rid of the huge margins and it worked) I cleared the cache, but I didn't remove the directory with some of my side-loaded books - can the kindle app "cache" the way it last displayed a book even after I clear the app cache from setting/app/cache?

Thanks for your pointers and I'm encouraged that I've gotten the margins to shrink.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] be4con:
I got my phone back from warranty repair and tried to reflash my nandroid which failed for reasons unknown. I also had a virtual sdcard backup made using the Nexus Tool Kit so I pushed the virtual sdcard to my Nexus and then ran the nandroid saved within the CWM folder.

This seemed to work well, but now I have issues with the /sdcard folder. I am unable to write to folders on there and cannot delete them. I can create new folders though without problem.

I tried a full wipe and reinstall of JBSourcery but the permissions problem remains.

Is there a way to change permissions to give me write access to the /sdcard folder? If I can't do that and a full wipe won't clear the problem how do I proceed? Will re-flashing stock solve the issue?

Thanks

Ok so i have searched a while and did not come across any posts regarding this: I have verizon and would like to see if theres a root tether option that will allow me to use my xbox and tablet off my phone. I only have a 4 gig data plan and my girlfriends unlimited plan we have already used 34 gigs in 11 days and they are starting to slow the connection speeds down. Is there a way to bypass my 4 gig limit and have unlimited tether on my phone?
[General Topics] maniacaus:
Nope

Buy more data for your plan or use a landline ISP.

As far as i know there's no such thing as free interwebs.

VZW unlimited

That's what the VZW is making the new data plans for, to keep people off using up the towers for data, and to use a landline ISP for data. otherwise the bills for overcharges will rack up at like $10 extra a gb

[Galaxy Note II Accessories] RavenY2K3:
Today I took receipt of 2 Nillkin Hard Cases for the GT-N7100 Galaxy Note (One brown, one Red.)

I bought them from eBay for around £6 each delivered, the quality is surprisingly good, I wasn't keen on having a TPU or Soft Silicone case, or the flip case that I had for my original Note. So I thought I'd give this one a try.

You can see that it comes well packaged, not just in an envelope as is usually the case from Chinese suppliers of such products.

It also includes a screen protector, I've not yet fitted that, as I already have one fitted that's in good condition.

As you can see from the next set of photos, it doesn't really add a great deal of bulk, which is another reason I didn't want a TPU or Silicon case.

Granted I can't see it protecting the phone from a massive fall, but I wanted to keep the svelte lines as much as I could, whilst adding some grip, which it does nicely with the texture that is on the under side.

The fit is really snug, I had reservations at first, but once it's fitted it doesn't move at all, so I have no worries about it slipping off.

All-in-all I think it's a really good product, it adds protection from scratches for most of the phone, whilst not being too bulky, just enough thickness to save the camera lens from getting scratched when you put the phone down.

So if you're looking for a case and have similar requirements to my own, consider giving this one a try.

:D
[Galaxy Note II Accessories] mhsc34:
thank you for your return
[Galaxy Note II Accessories] MISSDIVA:
Excellent review and photos,its a shame the case doesn't cover the top and bottom of the phone .
[Galaxy Note II Accessories] ChodTheWacko:
i just made a thread about this, but yours is nicer so....

I didn't like the fit at ALL until I just removed the back cover from my note 2 completely.

I don't really care about NFC so I'm okay with this. I like having a bit more lip too.

I find a couple of the edges a bit sharp. meaning if I hold the phone in landscape, my index fingers get scraped a little bit by the case edges.

I might sand them down or something.

The texture on the case is quite nice - pretty subtle but noticable when you hold it.
[Galaxy Note II Accessories] RavenY2K3:
I know what you mean, but at least it looks uniform all the way around, I had a couple of flip cases, one made by a company called Tenda, great case and had a similar hard back to it, that case did cover all the edges... except for one corner, it would have looked a bit daft if it didn't have the flip screen cover.

But because of the material, I think it would be a nightmare taking it off, if it did cover every edge, as because it's really stiff, you need some leverage when you do want to remove it.

It might just be the batch you've got perhaps, I've just been around both cases, both on and off, and there are no sharp edges, in your case, a small nail file or wet'n'dry should do the trick.

I think I know what you mean about the fit, I too was a bit cautious as it "almost" sits flush with the screen, but there is a bit of a lip and I've shaken the hell out it and it's going know where haha.
[Galaxy Note II Accessories] kastafela:
I get one. Very slim charming
[Galaxy Note II Accessories] uchosen:
I received my black one yesterday. Yeah, it stinks that the top and bottom are exposed, otherwise it would be perfect.

If you're looking for the lightest, minimalist case, this is the one.

Honestly, you really can't go wrong with a product that says "SUPER COOL" on the packaging. :laugh:
[Galaxy Note II Accessories] RavenY2K3:
Haha, yeah that made me chuckle when I read that. Lol.
[Galaxy Note II Accessories] Tweh:
Thanks. I am expecting the black one. I love the texture look. I am hoping it feels like it looks.

Be careful though. It looks like you already have some scratches.
[Galaxy Note II Accessories] RavenY2K3:
There's a screen protector on my beast, they arrived 4 days before the phone haha ;)
[Galaxy Note II Accessories] cpm:
That's a really nice case you have there. I envy your adventurous nature in going for red, I'd be more conservative and go for grey or black!

Anyhow I was also looking at this similar case and thought it offers a little more protection around the top / bottom. Any opinions?
[Galaxy Note II Accessories] RavenY2K3:
I'd be more inclined to go for the one you've found, for that added protection, I have ordered a aluminum bumper and a flip case which I'll probably post a review about, unless someone already has.

I might buy the one you've posted about too lol.
[Galaxy Note II Accessories] cpm:
Yeah I'm on the case hunt too. Already bought the S-Line with kickstand just yesterday. I also really like the look of the one I linked to above. I'm interested in this flip cover too , which I really like for its corner protection - should be protective enough for most falls and no magnet involved to interfere with the s-pen.

And worst of all, I don't even own a Note 2 yet. Crazy or what?!

Anyhow apologies for hijacking your useful review thread :D
[Galaxy Note II Accessories] ekerbuddyeker:

[Galaxy Note II Accessories] eggnoodle:

[Galaxy Note II Accessories] cpm:
Which case is that then as there's a few mentioned above? I'll stay away from that one once I know as the phone is slippery enough as is (from trying out in store).

[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] POTS101:
Hi, curious question.

I'm wondering why the N7 doesn't allow you to slow scroll/pan down at single pixel steps. Always seems to be in 2-3 pixel jumps. I got a bad habit of scrolling web pages while reading from iOS but on my N7 I get these kinda anoying start/stop jerks.

Is this related to the virtual pixel resolution being lower than the actual screen resolution? And would changing it allow one to match the virtual pixels to the screen pixels and get smoother slow speed panning?

Anyone know if some custom ROMs optimize for this?

BR
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] aLPaSLaN07:
I have been struggling with this issue for days. Looked into kernel code hoping to find anything related to scrolling or touchscreen but nowhere to find such a thing. It has nothing to do with virtual pixel resolution. If you swipe your finger at a degree of between 45-90 (accapted as scroll up by the system), Y coordinates change by 3 pixels where as X coordinates can change by 1.. Therefore its not a limitation, it is kind of scroll sensitivity which is 3px.. I've seen other devices can scroll by 1 pixel.

I believe google has set this value to 3 because of rendering issues, since its gonna render the screen 3 times more if it is set to 1. Maybe it is the optimum sensitivity. Lower than 3 pixels may disrupt buttery smoothness but its just a guess..

I hope one dev can lead us the right piece of code where it is set to 3 and we can change it ourselves to test the best..

You guys can try the problem yourself actually by installing the "Multi-touch accuracy check" app from market, which shows the exact pixel of the touch..

[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] alexr71:
Any news on this?

As far as I can see, this is only related to touch screen; if you use a usb mouse, you can actually see the scroll by one pixel at time, and there is no graphical issues. With mouse all seems smoother...

At this point, I think It's an hardware issue of the touch screen, as the system can easly support 1px scrolling
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sorenba:
I have the issue as well. Does this affect all Nexus 7? I am surprised so few people are discussing this issue.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Phhoenyxx:
So I've been messing around with wallpapers on my Galaxy Nexus (Jelly Bean 4.1.1). I've tried several 720x1280 and 1440x1280 wallpapers and didn't crop any of them (or rather, I selected the whole image when it prompted me to crop them).

Now we all know that the Galaxy Nexus has soft keys at the bottom (96 pixels) and a status bar at the top (50 pixels). Obviously, if selecting an image with 1280 pixels in height, parts of that image will be cropped.

There are two "logical" ways that the Galaxy Nexus can do this:

1- Crop 96 pixels from the bottom and 50 pixels from the top.

2- Average them out --> (96+50)/2 = 146/2 = 73 (crop 73 pixels from the top and bottom and display what's left in the centre).

But it doesn't seem to be doing either one of those. After messing around with Photoshop and comparing different crops, I've come to the conclusion that the Galaxy Nexus is in fact cropping a total of 146 pixels, but it's doing it backwards.

It's cropping 96 pixels from the TOP of the image and 50 pixels from the BOTTOM of the image...

Now this isn't a big deal or anything, but who decided to do it this way and why? It seems like a lot of trouble for nothing.

What's up with that?! :confused:

Hey guys just got a Galaxy S3 and love it! I was looking @ cases and came across Case Mate Tough Case "Design your own case" thing which I am thinking of getting. Just wanted to know if anyone has one? I don't want the case to be to bulky like the OtterBox, and want to know if the buttons and everything line up :P

Thanks
[Galaxy S III Accessories] RandyBoyz92:
I have the Case Mate Tough and I really like it. Yea the reason I dint choose the Otterbox was because its way too bulky for me Case Mate Tough Its a little bit bulky(but I don't have a problem with it) but compared to the Otterbox its not bulky at all. I don't have any problem pressing all the buttons.

Otterbox has passive protection and Case Mate Tough has active protection and with that I mean that is that Otterbox as a really sleek back and its easy to drop but if you drop it it will protect your S3 better than Case Mate Tough(but its not a very big difference) but you're less likely to drop your S3 if you have Case Mate Tough because its back is not very sleek, its much easier to hold. I'm very clumsy and usually drop things all the time but because of Case Mate Tough I haven't dropped my smartphone a single time.

(I hope I make sense)

What about the durability of the printings on customs CM Tough?

Hi,

I am not a case guy... I was.

I agree to the overall quality of Tough case I had to buy for my S3 after a really little fall that shattered its digitizer/screen. Really fragile to say the least... When I see what my S2 endured during a year without any protection; sure it has some scratch on the case but the glass is pristine.

After reading a lot around here and Youtube reviews, I chosed this Case-Mate model that hybrid concept felt interesting and it was easy to get it fast as soon as I got the spare part and replaced the screen to put back the S3 in service.

Find it affordable for its quality.

Finally keeping the S2 too, before it disappeared from the shelves, I bought a Tough for it just in case (and if I sell or give it, feel better).

It is far less bulky on the S2, because of its square design, seems a best fit when the S3's more flat pebble design make it appear much larger but remain pocketable in a quite slim 501 jean front pocket.

Now, I'd like to order a custom/decorated for S3's Tough, just for fun but I wonder about the durability of their printings. Any one has an experience with that?
