[Nook Touch General] rhhd:
I dont live in the US so a warranty exchange would be complicated. Probably not worth it for a device of this price class.

Also, B&N are famous for their aweful warranty policies, where you have to give them a credit card number before they take the device, and then they decide at their discretion whether they think it is a warranty case. If not they will charge your credit card and send you a new one.

I found a nice disassembly video on Youtube, just waiting for the Torx screwdriver I bought on Ebay to arrive (and for me to get back from my trip).
[Nook Touch General] Renate:
I've taken my Nook apart so many times that I no longer forget to pull the SD card out before I try to slide apart the case. :D
[Nook Touch General] ipedro3:
Try to connect your device with USB cable in a computer.

Then you will able to hear the connect/disconnect sounds (and when your nook is on or off).

Now, try to press the power button for a while (and you'll hear when it shutdown).

I´m my case, my NSTG was stucked in "Rooted Forever" screen (noogie.img boot) and was necessary to press power button some times and hold. Before, I´ve tried to disconnect the battery, but the screen don´t changed (stayed in "rooted forerver" even without battery).

good luck
[Nook Touch General] lantrydon:
Before you open it, hopefully the battery is drained by now. Insert bootable SD card and connect to charger one last time. Maybe will boot after about 15-30 minutes of charging. Good Luck.
[Nook Touch General] rhhd:
Hi,

I just came back from my trip. I opened the device, disconnected the battery.

Upon reconnecting, the device would not boot, but it was clear right away that something had changed: When connecting to the PC the on/off behavior was gone. Also, now the charging light would be orange.

After charging over night the device now works perfectly again, even the strange "? battery" symbol is gone.

Thanks for the help everyone!

I was tired of the blue bubble when I send a sms, so I change the original Mms.apk to make in green :p

The colour now looks like in Sense 4 and looks better !

To install push via adb or replace via a root explorer app (don't forget to change permissions to rw- r-- r--)

Then perform a hot restart and that's done :cool:

Only tested on Endymion v3.5 but it should work on any Sense 3.5 rom !

[Nexus 10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Sibelius343:
Hi, I just recently received my Nexus 10, and am loving it. However, I have found that video quality through streaming services (like YouTube and Netflix) is fairly poor. The videos that I've watched on YouTube and Netflix are fairly blurry and grainy. I tried Netflix on my computer as well, and it was blurry and grainy there, too, which makes me think that the problem isn't my Nexus. Is there a way to increase the quality of videos through these services? I did a speedtest, and my download speed is 2.5 megabytes (not megabits) per second, so I would think I would be able to stream HD content easily. Thanks!
[Nexus 10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] saltbread:
On your computer, are you setting the quality at 720P or higher? Does it buffer or play straight through? Do you have HD turned on the Nexus 10 when you play videos?

When i first got my S3 i could crop my wallpapers in a portrait box with no landscape section. Ive been flashing some roms and now have this box that shows the portrait and the landscape section as well. When trying to apply wallpapers that have the approximate dimensions of the screen the sides of the landscape section restrict me from getting the full image. How do i get the first portrait shaped cropping box back? Is it only in the stock rom or something.

since than when i go to google maps or navigation it says waiting for location and than after a few mins it says your current location is currently unavailble. when i check the location acccess option the wi-fi and mobile network location is disabled. when I enable it it does seem to find where i am but uses data to keep updateing. so I disabled it. I was wondering if anyone knew how to get the GPS opetion to work and find me so I can use the navigation again.

how can i have no sound for boot animation. really annoys me.

my phones is samsung galaxy s captivate i897 rooted running cyanogen mod and miui.

i read if i go to system>media

i can delete the file or change its extension.

but i cant seem to find a media option anywhere.

the only way i can access boot sound is if i go to change ringtone and select it, but no where else can i seem to access it in order to delete it.

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] TieNN89:
Hi all

I have a cracked screen on my Galaxy Nexus and want to replace it.

I know the digitizer is stuck to the glass but I've watched a video on YouTube and with a bit of time and patience it should come apart.

Has anyone successfully replace the glass and only the glass on the Galaxy Nexus?

I've seen some replacement glass on eBay for around $20 which doesn't seem too bad. But I want to know when you remove the old glass which would remove the glue holding the old glass on, do I need any glue to stick the new glass on and where would I find this so called glue?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] anathema_forever:
I bought a used broken galaxy nexus off ebay that also has this issue and I am probably gonna try and fix it eventually. I ordered replacement glass off ebay for 15 dollars and its coming with little tools for the job aswell.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] TieNN89:
Did it come with stuff to stick the glass back on :s
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] anathema_forever:
I will probably pick it up on Monday so I can check then.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] vonhinkle:
I did the same thing. Found a nexus on ebay for 40 bucks with a cracked screen. Phone works perfect, I ordered replacement glass only and and I'm just way nervous to do it.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] chipzdelux:
Any luck with this repair? It seems like there are people who say it can't be done and some who say it can. I've watched some videos on this topic as well but they never really show how to put the glass back on without getting air and dust trapped in between the digitizer and the glass.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] standa75:
I had the same issue with my Gnex, but after talking to private service guy,I replaced complete digitiser together with glass. The reason was simple.

As I get info from that guy, you will never be able to protect any dust to stay at digitiser area, so after some time phone will not recognise some touches,because of glue has to be used and it is not easy to cover complete area,that is why probably dust will come inside.

Anyway,those are informations I get from guy who is servicing/repairing all kinds of mobile phones, so this was his opinion and maybe there is better way,how to solve it.

I wish you good luck:)
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] anathema_forever:
It didn't come with glue :(.

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] stereo_system:
Any word on replacing the glass? I've been watching some videos about the process that includes everything except the regluing.

I found one video on the regluing process, but it shows the replacement in an industrial factory setting with an industrial autoclave vacuum to remove any air bubbles present.

I have also seen people on the YouTubes use 3mm wide double sided tape around the entire perimeter of the phone to reduce dust, but I can see potential issues with this method, as the factory method seems to apply a solid layer of adhesive material.

I would like to hear success stories, but I'm inclined to pop this thing open and give out a shot.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] shanhe:
advise

I thought the glue is not a must have parts,but samsung wont put the glue on without any reason. what i know about the glue is it will make ur glass much harder...

What is changing to a new rom going to do for him? If his music is gone it's gone... Unless I'm missing something? Why isn't your music on your computer or somewhere else? How did you get it on your phone, lol? If it some where and you can't find it, pull everything from your storage places and put them on your PC and search both files with in your computer search index and see if you can find them... If they are there, then create a folder named /music and you will good to go. If they aren't there then get new music or however you got them there in the first place.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] shahkam:
Im really getting fed up whit this ... The way it makes another folder where everything elses moves there is really nonsense i have lost all my game data's also my titanium backup :mad:

[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] shahkam:
So i downloaded all of my musics whitin my device reason i never store music on my pc is because i barely do use it...

I guess i could do that too but i once remember i restored an backup and everything was in its place ? Its weird..

Also since i use various apps to get my music they are in different folders there js nothing inside my /music folder is this anything bad ?

I could download the music back also but takes quite a while + my lost game datas and precious images :/

Off topic : thoughts on the xperia t ? Im wanting to buy one..
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] mt3g:
I would start putting the music somehwere other then only on phone storage, just in case. I've accidentally wiped internal storage once, and I've had External sdcards go bad or just randomly out of no where lose all data in it. make a dropbox and do TiBu once a week and move them there your self with some type of file manager if you don't wanna pay the money for Titanium Backup pro. I also bet all your stuff is there you are just looking in the wrong places. What file manager are you using to look for your "lost stuff"?
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] shahkam:
Yeah dropbox is a good idea and i use root explorer and oi file manager tried whit both same results folders are not being shown but if i restore my nandroid backup they all come back ? Until i come back on a 4.2 aokp/aosp rom..
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] mt3g:
list all the areas you are looking for the media... what is your recovery?
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] bikrame:
Aokp is awesome ROM. I dont mean to be rude but if you think those files are still there (in your phone) ;install different ROm or restore backup and pull al data from it. And wipe both internal and external cards. Amd install aokp and enter those files again via PC.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] shahkam:
Sorry for late answer but i looked into sdcard/storage0/storage1/usbdisk/ also checked emulated and legacy folder...
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] shahkam:
Yeah ill do just that i guess aokp 4.2 is just perfect for me except it has low incall volume -.-...
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] mt3g:
Go to /mnt/ and check on both sdcards through there! and still... what is your recovery?

[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] shahkam:

[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] mt3g:
well then you are on your own to get your music back and keep it backed up like I suggested earlier.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] shahkam:
Got my music finally couldn't get my titanium backup because of user error anyways...

Now while were at it i have another issue when i charge my phone and i use it it just discharges and im not doing anything like playing games...

I know that i have went hard on the usb port sometimes like my knee accidentally pulls the cord which is plugged to the device etc etc... Any idea ?
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] mt3g:
Any kernel you're using or just stock? I've read people complaining about it not charging fast enough or feeling like it is charging via USB from the computer or something. I'm guessing you are on stock, I suggest flashing a custom kernel and seeing how it goes after that.

Okay cool, better that then messing with kernels and settings and such.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] bkaltec:
Restore or installing a new rom won't help with sdcard or internal storage. I notice sometimes with a cyanogen based ROM my files will be copied to a folder named "0" located in the root of the storage device. Wtf the point of that is I'll never know.

Another note is that I experience issues with the worthless MTP sync when connected to a PC via USB. I lost all of my I internal storage multiple times. I think it wipes the fat tables because it takes no time at all to clear that much data.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] mt3g:
Thanks for not reading ;) lol. It's all been covered, and any 4.2 rom will make the /____/0 folder. It is for multiple users to be on one device, kinda pointless for most, but useful for some. It doesn't harm the average user that is using 4.2 only, like myself I only use 4.2 haven't seen or ever complained about it. If you flash the rom read before you do, this way there won't be any surprises and you will know what's going to happen.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] bkaltec:
I see, sorry I missed the explanation. It happened again to me lately and surprised me because it moved my CWM backups causing failures for restores. I learned quickly to find the advanced restore options.
