I actually pressed the back switch several times and did so for more than a few seconds, but to no avail. I going to leave it alone for a while with the battery unplugged and then plug the battery back in and see what happens. Any other suggestions are welcome.

[Nook Touch General] briv:
I have tried to reboot the NSTG holding the back button several times, it does not reboot. I have tried to root with an sd card and the NSTG does reboot to run the software on the micro sd, but it hangs at the rebooting without the micro sd in the NSTG. The NSTG does boot from the micro sd, but it will not complete the process of rebooting when I reboot after installation of the software. I have tried the Alpha format touch 2 with the clock work mod rc2 and the NSTG will not complete the rebooting after I remove the micro sd card. I have tried the tinynoot with the clock work mod rc2 and it is the same result. Does anyone know how I can get the NSTG to reboot without the micro sd card to get it working again?

[Nook Touch General] ladykayaker:
I am not clear on something - at first it seems you are saying the nook does not reboot

but then you describe how you have rooted via alpha format touch and tinynoot.

When you root via these two, I presume you using the clockworkmod sdcard - so do you get the nook to power up to the clockworkmod screen?

When you have the rooted forever screen - leave the battery in, remove the sdcard - and then press and hold the power button numerous times.

Do you have UK or US nook?
[Nook Touch General] briv:
I have the US NSTG. At first I had the ROOTED FOREVER screen and tried rebooting exactly as you suggested, but it did not work. I tried to reboot this way several times as you suggested, but it would not reboot. Finally I decided to try and reboot using the Alpha format and the Tinynoot. I have used the clockworkmod sdcard with these two and yes, it does get to the clockworkmod screen and actually installs the zip files, but when I remove the battery and click the bottom front button to reboot, the screen flashes once and does not reboot. The screen now displays the description of the last step by step installation process I tried with Tinynoot. Any suggestions on how to get the NSTG to reboot?

I hope it's okay to send you the message I sent to another person that responded to me. I am just learning how to use the threads.

[Nook Touch General] ladykayaker:
Please do not remove the battery.

Do remove the sdcard.

The bottom front button is not the power button. Do not use this to reboot.

The power button is at the rear of the nook, at the very top. Press and hold numerous times.

I would recommend using Glownooter for rooting your US Nook glow. http://blog.the-ebook-reader.com/20...using-glownooter-includes-googles-app-market/

If you are using the Alpha Format Touch that I am thinking of, then this is for the UK, not US, Nook.

Tinynoot is not great for a first timer, it has minimal apps which you will find hard to use initially.

Glownooter is much better for rooting the first time.

I would suggest you use these instructions to first restore your nook

http://blog.the-ebook-reader.com/20...-and-restore-nook-glow-and-nook-simple-touch/

with all the rooting and re-rooting you have done I can't be sure what state your nook is in now.

Start up your nook, be sure you are back to the original.

Then try again using Glownooter.

---------- Post added at 05:18 PM ---------- Previous post was at 04:22 PM ----------

I just want to check one other thing - what software version is installed on your nook.

Glownooter is only for firmware 1.1.5

Use Tinynoot for firmware 1.2

Alpha Format Touch works for UK Nook firmware 1.2, but does not have satisfactory results for US Nook on 1.2

Anyone else notice the phone randomly doesnt charge when plugging it into the computer?

The battery will say charging, the lock screen will say charging, but the battery screen will say not charging and the graph will show a green charging line but draining battery. Replugging the phone in fixes it. I havent had an issue with the wall charger.

Theres nothing wrong with the USB ports, it charged my other phone fine and it charges this phone when it works.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] n1ggyn1ce:
my N4 charges fast when I plug it to my laptop. I connect it to my USB 3.0 port..
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MusicMan374:
PCs aren't designed to charge phones. It may work for a dumbphone with a 500 mAh battery, but it doesn't have the amperage to charge a smartphone efficiently. The charging adapter that comes with the phone is 1200 mA (milliamps), a computer USB port only provides 500 mA (on USB 2.0). On USB 3.0, it provides 900 mA, so it will charge faster, but not nearly as fast still as the 1.2 amp travel adapter.

On top of this, the phone is constantly using battery power while on, so it is very likely that when the screen is on and you are using the phone plugged into the computer, the phone is drawing power faster than the computer is charging it.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] idividebyzero:
That is not what Im talking about. It says charging everywhere except the battery screen where it says not charging, that is obviously a bug. A computer can power a phone fine anyways, they are made to be powered by a USB port.

[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Surtr52:
I had this problem today. The battery was dying fast (Average for this one) and I had popped it into my stereos USB, The battery didn't show the charging sign.

WTF? So I switched to the "Cigarette lighter port" and with a different cable plugged that in. No go. Held in the power button to simulate a battery pull, Still didnt work.

Turned it off, Went back to work and three hours later getting ready to drive home i plugged it in. The phone was getting warm, But the battery charging sign never popped up. I turned it on and the left side (By the sim card) was getting ultra-hot but betterbatterystats said the battery was only feeling at around 101degrees (Normal for this small sun). A minute later it was highly uncomfortable to hold (Just near the sim card area), I thought the battery was going to catch on fire like those youtube videos.

I power cycled once again, the battery charging sign popped up and I breathed a huge sigh of relief. Seconds later the phone ****ing flipped its wig, It kept making the charger plugged in sound and vibrate every half second. I about had a stroke, Thinking it's going critical. ONE MORE POWER CYCLE, Everything is normal.

My earlier experience seemed similar to yours OP, Let me know if your phone melts your hand off and goes all bi-polar like mine did.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Heartbreak:
I'm having the same problem. It has nothing to do with a computer not being powerful enough to charge it, especially when they aren't even being used such as overnight. It has charged every other smartphone that I've used. It will say that it is charging on the lockscreen and on the settings pulldown but it will just constantly drain battery. I will put it on the charger before bed and wake up 8 hours later and it says it is at 86% with a steady decline in battery. This only happens when connected to my iMac and not when plugged into a wall outlet.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jacklebott:
I wouldn't think USB 3.0 improves the charging speed at all, since the protocol still uses USB 2.0
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tweaked:
I just remove all the cables and replace them. It seems to solve it.

Same with the AC adapter. I noticed sometime it would say charging USB when I switched. I just unplug everything and plug it back in and it goes back to normal.

[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] idividebyzero:
I havent noticed it getting warm, it just doesnt charge even though it knows its plugged in and is supposed to be charging. It works after replugging it in.

It also seems to charge abnormally slowly.

I wonder if the issue with the phone not working right with Nokia chargers (constantly disconnects and reconnects) is related to this. It may not have anything to do with the Qi standard because the phone just doesnt charge right period.

[Nexus 10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] shoyuu:
Just received my N10 - 16GB and was trying to figure out how to take a screenshot. From everything I read it's, Hold Power Button + Vol Down. That didn't work. It was just as if I held down the Power Button by itself and it gave me the popup window for Power Off / Airplane Mode.

I then realized that the Vol Down is actually in the top position, closest to the Sleep/Power and Vol up is in the bottom. Is this normal? I don't recall the Nexus 7 having the volume buttons reversed.

Also, trying to take a screen shot still doesn't work for me. Anyone having these issues?

Thanks,
[Nexus 10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tcrews:
The tablet is designed for landscape use.....so at the top left of the tablet is Power, Volume - and then Volume +

Press and HOLD both Power and Volume - at the same time, it takes a few seconds (about 2.5 seconds based on doing it right now and counting LOL).

Do not press one then the other. Put your fingers over both then press at the same time.
[Nexus 10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] shoyuu:
Much appreciated the quick answer. From my other Android devices, it was either hold power/sleep first then either Vol down or Home button. I tried your suggestion and it works now. Even gives an audible tone.
[Nexus 10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Mikuss:
Anybody else find this really awkward?

It'd be much better if I could do a screenshot by holding the power button down and tapping the home button. Much like the One X etc.

[AT&T LG Optimus G] gregk232:
My apologies in advanced if this question is already answered elsewhere... I searched but could not find anything.

The instructions for all the custom Rom installations that I have done on my previous devices have been uniform on the question of battery % when flashing - 100% charge is the best option to go with.

I don't see this as a requirement for The Base Rom or anywhere in the OG forums.

Is it OK to flash from Base .5 => .7 for example on 30% battery?

How about new when flashing new kernel?
[AT&T LG Optimus G] dbgeek:
Yesterday, I lost over 20% of battery on a flash, so I would strongly recommend having at least 50% before flashing. I had ~80% battery when I started the process.
[AT&T LG Optimus G] sheek360:
when flashing, i always do it with a full battery. with my old nexus one i flashed one of those crappy king roms and it tore my phone a new one. it took hours to figure out what was wrong and how to adb push files. if it wasnt for the full battery i wouldve been screwed if it died on me. since then, i try my best to flash with a full battery, u never know
[AT&T LG Optimus G] whiteguypl:
Short

No it doesn't need to be full.

It is more safe if full.

I keep charger plugged in when flashing.
[AT&T LG Optimus G] DraginMagik:
i flash while plugged in...so as to avoid any unpleasant side effects of the battery dying whilst playing.
[AT&T LG Optimus G] PurpleNinja225:
In my experiences I've been able to flash with as little as 16%... But that was in a pinch when I made a bad flash and was stuck in a boot loop (I always have trouble with cyanogen mod) but usually 50% is a good safe zone and plugged in is always best.
[AT&T LG Optimus G] C2fifield:
Lowest I've ever flashed at was around 10%, but I was plugged in. I wouldn't worry too much (unless you're flashing something vital like a boot loader)

Cm10 ROM is truly amazing. What do you really loose? You loose all the motion gestures that, well personally I didn't use except the *stay awake* one, the stock video player, ability to save camera to extsd(which I actually hate not having)

What do you gain? You gain speeds on a phone I never imagined, you gain the absolute absence of bloatware, you gain an awesome camera, total systematic customization, far less app freezes(if rarely any), beautiful lock screen, notification bar from heaven, longer battery, performance control and sooooo much more. So far the S3 with a CM ROM on it, is longest phone I have ever kept.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] Elaldeano:
Is there a way to update CM 10 nightly automatically? Or is it by flashing as if it was another rom? Where do we get 10.1? Thanks
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] uplift777:
I go to "system settings /about phone /Cm10 updates " you should be able to update there.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] Tony_YYZ:
The ability to save camera images to EXT SD is something I wasn't aware CM10 didn't have. Hmm, I usually keep all my media on the EXT SD. I guess that's not a deal breaker more than it is an annoyance. The other thing I expect to lose is S Planner and the related widgets. I thought they were very useful. I wonder if the AOSP Calendar app has a similar widget? Can you or anyone confirm?

I look forward to the performance improvements even though I have no complaints with the TW JB in that area. The battery life is what I am hoping will improve quite a bit.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] tj_ona:
I was running CM10 since the stable release. I loved it. Battery life was great. I missed a lot of the TW features so i went to Bacon. Personally i wish there was a hybrid of both. BT works better in TW, but CM is so damn fast! Its just a preference, but try them out. Thats the beauty of owning these devices. .
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] uplift777:
What features did you miss and will you back to Cm10 with .1 update?
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] Grospolina:
I agree. I tried CM10 for a few days and I loved it, but I had to go back to stock (and happened to get the official JB update the same day). I use Bluetooth in my car, so it's a really important feature for me. The CM Bluetooth support just isn't as solid as the stock ROM. It sometimes had trouble connecting, the volume was lower, and there was a bug where there was no bass. Also, the stock ROM has some nice Samsung features that I'd like to try out for a bit longer (I just got the phone last week).

If CM can resolve the BT issues, then I might go back. However, I had similar issues on CM6/7 on my old Sony Ericsson X10. I wanted to throw that phone out the window of my car.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] wally3614:
I flashed blackjellyv.0.9.1 and got everything stock had to offer with the cm10 feel and more. So amazing that tw should mimic it. But, weirdly I got so used the phone ability to swipe from dialer over that having to two hand it to the top to select things really irritated me. The cm10.0 is a bit faster, BUT u can DL pics right to SDCard on camera!!! The lock screen is the ripple stock which I wish were the jellybean lock instead, and the dialer flashes greens and blues etc while it is call out or coming in if you do not have a pic defaulted. I couldn't stand that part. The BlackJelly though IS the stock version of CM10 IMO
