I always keep the Stock Rom Backup in my SD card. im currently using(testing) JellyBam but have N00by's pure repack of V30B on the sd.

I guess everyone has some apks in their sd to avoid downloading them every time they flash a ROM.

I have Whatsapp, Swype keyboard, Dropbox (where i have more apks), ES File Explorer, Rom Manager, BetterBatteryStats, ChrometoPhone (since i cant download it from the Store cause im from Argentina)... and some other like games..or emulators.

i always have a backed up zeus which i keep(its already configured)

You can even make a flashable zip with the apps you like to push in system. I use my own gapps (stuff removed and maps, streetview, books), a zip with zeam, gingerbreadkeyboard and dictionary and one with titanium, root explorer, betterbatterystats, etc...

Guys,

I'm on GB .905 and want to update to .232 ICS...

Now my question is if I update to 232 ICS, will my cdma data work as usual or do I need lte sim to make it work?

I'm on non-US cdma carrier...

[Nook HD, HD+ Accessories] MrPresident:
Hi,

One of the reasons i got my nook was to study.

I want to know if there is a stylus that will allow me to underline, highlight, annotate, add notes to documents that I read.

If so, whats the big deal about the galazy S-pen? just that it is pressure sensitive??

If i can use some third party/after market stylus with my nook, then can i get some reccommendations, or points on what to look for?

lastly what is the best software to help me use the nook hd+ in the manner i've described? i notice the stock reader stuff allows u to highlight and add notes. is that my best bet, or is there something better.

The format of most of the documents I will be using is .pdf, and i'd like to be able to write free hand over the .pdf. and then hide or show what i have written, +/- highlighting.

thanks
[Nook HD, HD+ Accessories] madsquabbles:
any capacitive stylus will work. you can't use samsung spen since it's inductive. it'll only work with wacom tablets and the galaxy note 2 and 10.1 and does have pressure sentivity.
[Nook HD, HD+ Accessories] dbh369:
Ok- I've been trying to use write with a Bamboo stylus- supposedly the best. So far I've been disappointed. Without a screen cover- the pen drags too much- and with one one it misses too many strokes. I've been trying to find out if the screen sensitivity can be adjusted. And if there are screen protectors that are thinner. I was using caseen.

There were procedures developed for the nook color- but they don't seem to work for hd.

Recommendations for Stylus?

Hello all, new owner of a HD+ here. I've been looking at getting a stylus for my Nook, are there are recommendations on a cheap (under $20) and durable stylus for the HD+? Many thanks...
[Nook HD, HD+ Accessories] dbh369:
Ps- on pdf note taking- check out Qoppa PDF Notes
[Nook HD, HD+ Accessories] curiousmike:
I've been using a rooCase pen for the last year on my Kindle Fire - it works fine on the Nook HD+ as well.

It's about $10 on the 'Zon.

http://www.amazon.com/rooCASE-Capac...F8&qid=1358059411&sr=1-1&keywords=roocase+pen
[Nook HD, HD+ Accessories] Tarthenal:
Many thanks for all the recommendations, will check these out!

---------- Post added at 09:22 AM ---------- Previous post was at 09:13 AM ----------

Thanks for the tip. Just to put this question out there, between Qoppa and ezPDF, which one would people recommend? ( I hope this is the right sub-forum to ask. Apologies if it is not, am new to this whole android/tablet thing).
[Nook HD, HD+ Accessories] dbh369:
So I wasn't happy with Bamboo, but that might have been the software, seems like Write doesn't work as well as say Draw! or antipaper on tracking pen input. Nonetheless, I found the Vera stylus at B&N was def better in keeping a clean track and working consistently. Still I find none of them are good enough to really take notes with yet. I've ordered an amPen Hybrid on recommendation of another thread and will try that. It includes metal 'fibers' in the tip to make it more sensitive. But for now, the Vera works pretty well.

What app for note taking are people using? I love the functionality of Write, but it is sporadic. Notefree and Antipaper are nice, but don't have the handwritten word processing capability of Write. LectureNotes is too complicated, though it may be ideal for some. Thoughts?
[Nook HD, HD+ Accessories] dbh369:
Alright, some updates:

I got the ampen hybrid and it is much better than the rubber tips including bamboo, slides easily over the screen and better sensitivity than the Vera. Major improvement and enough for note taking.

I'm also liking Free Note and Write as my apps. Free Note has lots of nice bells and whistles, but Write has the best handwriting editing capability. The ampen works pretty well with both but not precise enough for smaller writing. Good enough for Free Note (magnified entry area), but marginal with Write (actual size writing) where the big soft ampen tip is like writing with a crayon.

Ordered a jot pro to try now, for more precise writing, warnings indicate that a screen protector is essential as jot pro can collect grit and scratch the screen. Until now, results have been without screen protector...
[Nook HD, HD+ Accessories] Tarthenal:
I've been using the amPen one as well, and it's quite useful for highlighting and general tapping. It doesn't work so well with Write (as you pointed out) for me either. Where are you ordering the jot pro from?
[Nook HD, HD+ Accessories] dbh369:
Write's most recent update greatly improved performance with my amPen. Very happy with that now, except that all these are still like writing with a crayon. I ordered the Jot Pro with Amazon, and should get a look at it today!
[Nook HD, HD+ Accessories] dbh369:
Ok, finally got my jot pro, wow, almost like writing with a pen. A little noisy. Not as sensitive as the am pen. With Write I find I can now make the small stroke required for writing. But I find Write its a little laggy on stroke presentation. Free Note is faster, maybe because it isn't trying to make svg files. I may be able to get used to both of them, but leaning to free note.. With the jot pro I can prove my touchscreen needs calibration since you can see right where the tip is going. Up and to the left about an eighth of an inch.
[Nook HD, HD+ Accessories] Tarthenal:
Wow, sounds good. Although a lot of the reviews on Amazon mention the micro-scratches this thing causes. see, http://www.amazon.com/Adonit-Dampening-Stylus-iPhone-Tablets/dp/B00931K1QK/ref=dp_ob_title_ce

Are you using a screen protector of some sort?
[Nook HD, HD+ Accessories] dbh369:
Yep, going to try a few. Caseen glossy right now. Like I said sensitivity is a slight issue
[Nook HD, HD+ Accessories] dbh369:
Still liking the jot pro, wish it had a pocket clip, and being magnetic isn't a big deal for me. But by far the best writing implement I've tried.
[Nook HD, HD+ Accessories] jmstrat:
Latency

My cousin was drawing some sonic characters on her ipad mini and I realized what a Joy it was to draw on the ipad, the latency was nonexistent. Is there a way to remedy the latency seen with sketchbook pro on the nook hd+? It's not THAT bad but I wish It could be reduced just like the ipad, maybe it's just not possible, ehh it's bearable but It would be nice to show you guys the comparison..

PDF Reader

One program I really like and am getting to know better is, RepliGo. Its a PDF reader that allow you to edit, highlight, underline, etc. You can find it in the google play store. Its $2.99 if memory serves me.
[Nook HD, HD+ Accessories] aquaminh:
Well, Radaee PDF Reader is an pdf reader that can handle annotation pretty well. Give it a try!
[Nook HD, HD+ Accessories] bblubb:
I've been looking around on the web for a compatible good stylus to annotate PDF-files etc. (not so much for drawing, nor for writing long texts, but to write a few words etc.).

Did any of you test the HEX3 NOTA , the Truglide Apex or the Adonit Jot Script? (those battery-powered to use smaller tips, but without discs)

There seem to be some new similar products coming (but not on sale yet), like the Yufu Focus and Just Mobile Alupen Digital.

Those are not cheap, bu at least they could be used on (almost?) any tablet.

(I know the Jot Script uses BLE/BT4 for some features (pressure sensitivity and palm rejection), which won't work on the Nook HD+ for the moment, but if the higher precision is already there, it'd be already nice.)
[Xperia Play General] legacygt777:
So I finally wiped out everything and learned to root my 800at xperia play and download some new games. Took a lot of the bloatware off and my phone is running fast again.

Here are my top 5 games so far this new year:

1) Mini Motor Xperia-What an awesome game. I was a huge Atari Sprint and RC Pro AM fan back in the old days and this one is even better with weather condition, nightime racing, and 3D cars. Controls on the play is great and makes this game on the best games on the play.

2) Offroad legends-This game is great too! If you were a fan of Excite Bike or Kickstart this is like it using monster trucks. Great controls, graphics, and it's just simple and addicting.

3) Starfront Collision HD-I loved star craft and this one is kinda like it on the ground setting. Nice graphics and fluid game all around.

4) NBA Jam-Great game with both new stars and old. Sometimes the analog is a little off but overall it's still one of the best. Try playing 2 player and this game makes it really fun.

5) Minecraft Pocket Ed-The world of minecraft on the play is amazing. I like the controls and features on the play.

What are your favorite top 5 play games this year?
[Xperia Play General] eksasol:
I have lots of complaints on about Mini Moto Racing especially the AI and money making scheme and thought I wasted my money, though I did managed to beat it.

I enjoyed Sonic CD, first time I played Sonic in my life. :eek:

Otherwise typical classic ports:

Metal Slug 3

Raiden Legacy

Blazing Star

OpenTyrian

Another World

Most disappointed purchase: EnbornX. I thought it was a shmup, it turned out to be some anime shooter with boss only and no stages.
[Xperia Play General] legacygt777:
really? i thought mini moto was really cool. i know what you mean though. raiden is really cool but it's been a challenge trying to play sideways on the controls. are u using play controls? metal slug is a great game....but i'm not really good at it.
[Xperia Play General] Hoecky:
1) FIFA 12

2) NFS MW

3) Lets Golf 3

4) Modern Combat 4

5) Dark Knight Rises
[Xperia Play General] eksasol:
Well in all honesty I buy these games to support the developers because I'm never going to be able to afford the actual console and cartridges which cost too much. Raiden 2 works better on MAME, a bit slow but you can atleast assign the orientation.

I thought the SNK games are really easy now because they allow autofire. Try Blazing Star as well, its a side shooter.
[Xperia Play General] legacygt777:
fifa 12 is a gem. worth owning just for the play.
[Xperia Play General] D.Spirit:
1) Wild Blood. 2) Asphalt 7. 3) Dead Trigger. 4) NFS Most Wanted. 5) GTA Vice City Stories
[Xperia Play General] mathacer:
When I was on GB.

1. Dead space is the best graphics that I ever play

2. NFS Most wanted, EA games is just awesome graphics, it's harder than asphalt 7, n I love it.

3. Dead tigger, awesome FPS with horror genre...

4. NOVA 3, I always following this game, NOVA-NOVA3 I played all, I like the gamepad, you really know how to use your gamepad.

5. Fifa 13, awesome graphic with dedicated game button...

Maybe that's all...

Sorry for my English...
[Xperia Play General] Deshabilitado:
is FIFA 2013 out? cuz i cant find it on the playstore ...
[Xperia Play General] ILikeTheWayYouMove2:
1 GTA vice city - was waiting for this for ages and it didn't let me down

2 FIFA 12

3 MC4

4 dead trigger

5 football manager (not play optimised but love it anyway)
[Xperia Play General] TLRtheory:
#1. Celes Arca Online

#2. Dead Space

#3. The King of Fighters

#4. Wild Blood

#5. Blazing Souls Accelate

Really hard to narrow it down to only five games with Xperia Play having so many incredible games. I'd really rather have made a top 50.
[Xperia Play General] narflynn619:
1. The Bard's Tale Xperia Ed

2. Modern Combat 4 Zero Hour

3. Mini Motor Racing Xperia Ed

4. Expendable Rearmed

5. NFS Most Wanted

Or wait, it should actually be

1. The Bard's Tale Xperia Ed

2. The Bard's Tale Xperia Ed

3. The Bard's Tale Xperia Ed

4. The Bard's Tale Xperia Ed

5. The Bard's Tale Xperia Ed

:D :D :D :D :D
[Xperia Play General] tiagoSequeira:
1. Wild Blood

2. TDKR

3. NFS Most Wanted

4. NOVA 3

5. Shadowgun

My favourite overall list would include Modern Combat 4 Zero Hour and Shadowgun: Deadzone, I play these on my Nexus 7.
[Xperia Play General] UndisputedGuy:
Strangely it's not. It was released for iOS quite a while ago now. If i'm not mistaken, it was confirmed for Android but there doesn't seem to be any word on it for some reason. Fifa 12 was released on android by this time last year
[Xperia Play General] mathacer:
I don't know yet, coz I don't buy it, I just copy this game from my friends...

( sorry if it's warez, I don't know he gets from???)
[Xperia Play General] t0shir0:
NFS Most Wanted

Asphalt 7

asphalt 6

FIFA 12

tekken 3 (PS emulator XD, old school gamer)
[Xperia Play General] NooBOnTheBlock:
Dead Trigger For Graphics

Marvel Vs Capcom On CPS2

LoZ Ocarina Of Time On N64oid great time waster and lengthy RPG

Contra The Hard Corps On Gensoid

Temple Run 2 lol
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] Skwerl23:
Does anyone have a list of safe bloatware to uninstall? e.g. at&t Navigator.

The reason I ask is because I changed my DPI and even after a factory reset it was stuck at "at&t ready2go" i believe it is due to the app being uninstalled...

Any help would be appreciated.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] dnanj:
If you are not sure. Rather than uninstalling right away, you can disable the app from application manager.

Note: if app has been updated, you need to uninstall updates first then disable.

Here's what I have disabled on mine:

I did the exact same thing as dnanj, I took everything AT&T and froze it. I did not touch any of the Samsung apps and of course the Google apps (I'm bowing to my Google overlords as I type this) as I would assume they would interfere with their U/I and OS.

It's endorsed by Canonical, so yes. They don't release or distrubute anything closed source. That's the reason you can't get stuff like Oracle Java or Google Chrome as part of Ubuntu without doing the legwork to install it yourself.

[HTC Rezound] wlmeng11:
Well they did recently add proprietary Nvidia drivers to their official repositories. Not to mention that the mainline kernel does have some blobs in it (of course that's why GNU maintains a version that is open source only).

[HTC Rezound] liqwidzero:
It is. And they've stated that there will be a image to download for the Gnex in the next few weeks. For free, of course.

I'm sure there will be someone disassembling an image and seeing what can be done with it.
[HTC Rezound] wlmeng11:
Hopefully eventually we can get something like Replicant (100% free and open source version of Android).

I'm probably dreaming, though, since we have way too much proprietary hardware.

Hey guys;

a friend of mine has some problems with his newly rooted phone. He uses Siyah 5.01 and slim bean 3.1.

Before we did the rooting and the flashing we saved all his apps (more than 300) with user data via titanium backup. After having installed slim bean and flashing siyah we used titanium backup to reinstall all his apps with user data.

The problem is everytime he wants to call someone, andoid asks whether to use phone or skype. My friend says "use phone all the time", but android doesnt save that and keeps asking every time. Since we are noobs we wiped dalvik cache (why not), wiped battery stats and fixed permissions. Still android doesnt save phone as standard.

Any solution ? I used the search but only found threads with users putting skype accidentally into standard
