[Galaxy Tab 10.1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] oh_delay:
So I did everything I could. None of the instructions on this forum help me, I am almost a complete newb in this.

I used this instruction: wiki.cyanogenmod.org/w/Install_CM_for_p3

To the part where you need to boot into recovery by holding power and volume up. Well, guess what, nothing happens when you hold power + volume up.

Please, could someone write a good step-by-step newb-friendly manual on how to get the Jelly Bean on this tab? I am seriously considering throwing this thing out of the window right now as I spent the whole evening trying to get this working with no results.
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] oh_delay:
By the way, after doing all the manipulations with odin, now when the tab is loading and it shows the logo "samsung galaxy tab 10.1v", there is an image of an open lock in the bottom of the screen.
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] pruano:
That means the bootloader is unlocked, the first step to install custom ROMs and recovery images.

---------- Post added at 01:18 PM ---------- Previous post was at 01:00 PM ----------

Yes, with the P3, never could use POWER+VOL UP to boot into recovery (that combination can get out of stock recovery and into normal boot, which IS useful, since sometimes, one makes a mistake and stays stranded on a recovery bootloop.

Unfortunately, contrary to P4, there is no menu in the bootloader to boot into recovery.

You can however substitute that step 3 with this:

"From a terminal run adb reboot recovery"

[NOTE: its skipped in the tutorial, but for adb to function while in normal mode, you need to activate it, by going to Settings->Programmer Tools (or something like that, activate it, since its off by default and set the DEBUG USB connection on , or something - sorry, they changed the place in 4.1 and cannot give you the correct path)]

The device will then reboot into the Clockworkmod Recovery (assuming it has been correctly flashed); if not, repeat step 9 from section above.

Afterwards, you can either use adb or the Boot into Recovery menu option from the Shutdown dialog of ClockworkMod to boot into recovery.

[Galaxy Tab 10.1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] oh_delay:
Well, yeah, apparently. I have stock 4.0.4 installed.

What exactly should I do? IDK what that means, "Fastboot flash recovery recovery.img

fastboot reboot recovery".

As I said, I am almost a complete newb in this.
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] oh_delay:
I did adb reboot recovery, and it booted the stock recovery. Maybe I should use another recovery image? I used the one linked in the CM's instructions.
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] oh_delay:
Ok, so basically what happens now is I flash recovery.tar.md5 through Odin, then it reboots in OS and I reboot it to recovery through terminal. The recovery says 'Android system recovery <3e>', so I assume it's the stock one?
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] oh_delay:
Ok i figured out how to use fastboot command. Still I don't understand, which recovery.img should I flash? I don't have this file, at least not in an .img format, it's format is .tar.md5

So I guess my next question is, where can I get recovery in .img format?
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] oh_delay:
OK, so I figured this out.

I downloaded the recovery.img for the Galaxy Tab 10.1 from the official CWM site (NOT 10.1v, cause they don't have it for this version. It worked fine).

then I loaded in bootloader, used ./fastboot boot <path to downloaded recovery.img>, I just dragged the img to terminal window.

Through this booted recovery, I flashed the CM rom and gapps (I did this without actually flashing the recovery, mind you).

After that, I used odin in windows again to flash their recovery.tar.md5, and now finally, when I use ./adb reboot recovery it starts up with CWM.

So yeah, thank you for your posts and thoughts, you helped me figure this out. :)
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] pruano:
Yes, if you use "fastboot boot [recovery image]" instead of "fastboot flash recovery [recovery image]", you can boot to a custom recovery like CWM without flashing.

Fastboot only accepts .img files, Odin only accepts tar.md5 files; however, tar.md5 files are just archive files, if you rename the file to remove the .md5 extension and use a program like 7-zip which can read .tar files, you will find one or more .img files inside, which you can extract for use with fastboot.

Great that you managed on your own (even with some tips), best way to learn.

---------- Post added at 12:12 PM ---------- Previous post was at 12:07 PM ----------

Its the last stock release for this tablet.

---------- Post added at 12:45 PM ---------- Previous post was at 12:12 PM ----------

One last thing: those instructions do not include adding root, as indeed you can use most of the functionality of Cyanogen without root (and possibly exposing your device to malware).

However many useful functions and apps DO require root; to check if you have root, either install this app, or do "adb shell" + "adb su", which should change the prompt from a $ to a #

For root the best way is probably to flash both zip files (ARM version) with CWM at this point (so you get the latest version); dont forget to hit the "Fix Permissions" CWM option afterwards to prevent any potential problems.

[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] blakjak220:
For the last 3 days I've been having random shutoffs.... the phone will just go off with no notice whatsoever and there's no common thing I'm doing each time.

I've moved and ever since then, about a week, the battery life has been horrible...I assume due to crappy signal on Sprint.

Now it's started dying randomly and when it reboots, sometimes requiring a battery pull, it has lost 30-60% of the battery life it had just before the incident.

I was on CM10 when it started but have since wiped several times and changed to JellyBelly and its still happening......

What gives?

Is it just a bad battery?... the battery app says the battery has good health and if I leave it plugged in it doesn't ever die....

Help....

[Nook HD, HD+ Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Rav3:
Hi guys,

I am weighing up the option of buying a Nook HD+, it will be primarily used as a ebook reader, majority of the content is large textbooks in PDF format, some are well in excess of 1000 pages, I was wondering what peoples experience was in such a case? What is performance like, i.e. scrolling?

It was between the Nook and Nexus 10, however N10 has too many issues with back light bleed and multiple RMA's, the screen on the Nook seems better for reading from what little reviews are out there, what you guys think?

Many Thanks
[Nook HD, HD+ Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Tarthenal:
I bought the Nook HD+ for the same reason. The N10 screen issues, plus the fact that 7" is a bit too small for PDFs, made it my choice. Uptil now, I have no complaints, it's a great screen to read on. I have a 'matte' screen protector and brightness turned way down, and it really comes close to approximating my old Kindle in terms of lack of eye strain.

With the PDF size, I'm not so sure. I've gone upto 100-200 pages PDF with no issues (although ezPDF, the Android App. has a tendency to crash). Not sure about 1000 pages. One thing you could try is cutting them up into smaller sizes (say 200 pages each) before transfer.
[Nook HD, HD+ Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Tschumi:
I bought the nook HD+ exactly for this reason i.e. to read large pdfs. Till now I red pdfs with up to 600 pages, using Ezpdf and Mantano and I can confirm that both work fine. The stock reader is also fine albeit with just the basic functionality. One minor problem with Mantano reader is the inability to display the underlying "image" of an ocr'd pdf - it gives just the recognized text which sometimes isn't that accurate.
[Nook HD, HD+ Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Rav3:
Thanks both Tarthenal and Tschumi, I appreciate your feedback.

Tarthenal - As for ezPDF crashing, from what I have read is that you can try two things to see if it helps:

1) In ezPDF turn off page turning animations, apparently makes a difference.

2) Enable "Force GPU rendering" to use 2D acceleration, I have this option in CyanogenMod on my Galaxy Note, I'm not sure if it is an option in the Nook HD+?

How are you also installing the third party applications, am I correct in assuming rooting the HD+, install Gaps, then through Google Play?

It sounds like I'll be just fine with the largest of my PDFs, what's it like as a general purpose tablet with something like CyanogenMod? My primary purpose is booking reading, so anything in addition to this will be a bonus.

The screen looks real nice from the pictures and videos I've seen, hopefully it will be just as nice when I receive it, I have not seen it in person.
[Nook HD, HD+ Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Tschumi:
The screen is superb. One of the best I have seen in a tablet. As for the ezpdf, I always disable the animations, but always feels laggy. You can enable 2d acceleration in the settings of the cm10 rom by verygreen but there's no such option in the stock options.
[Nook HD, HD+ Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Tarthenal:
The screen really is excellent. I have disabled page turning animations, will try the gpu rendering option, thanks for the tip! I'm running CM10 from the SD card, which is excellent (except for battery, as I mentioned, I get around 30% drain in 3-4 hours reading). But I used Leapinlar's thread to root stock as well. The 'general purpose' tablet is really good, although the lack of camera means you can't video skype (why you would want that on a tablet though, is beyond me :) ). Overall, I'm VERY satisfied with it. Now, I am just wondering if the bluetooth keyboard will work with CM10.
[Nook HD, HD+ Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] maxspr1:
Since my HD+ is rooted, I've tried a bunch of apps for reading pdfs from every store (just reading--i can't really comment on other pdf features). My favorites are Adobe Reader and the Kindle reader app, both of which work flawlessly on my device. I found that the stock reader works great for text pdfs, but graphics and photos appear noticeably more contrast-y in the stock reader than they do in other apps. I've also had problems with ezpdf crashing and lagging, so I uninstalled that one. i'll try the things the other posters mentioned and see if i have a better time with ezpdf.
[Nook HD, HD+ Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Tarthenal:
Hmmm. That sounds interesting. Do you know if you can highlight/annotate with the Kindle reader app?
[Nook HD, HD+ Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Rav3:
Many thanks for your additional comments guys, I've gone ahead and ordered the Nook HD+ 32 GB, it should arrive next week, will share my thoughts, your inputs helped me reach a decision :o
[Nook HD, HD+ Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] maxspr1:
As far as I can tell, the Kindle app can only be used to read pdfs--the pdfs look great, especially any graphics, but you really can't do much else with them.
[Nook HD, HD+ Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] thegracious:
From my case I can confirm two things.

1/ It read ebook <1500p ok (the number of page of my current reading book)

2/ the screen quality is much better than that of the first gen KF (I didn't feel pain in my eye when reading with the nook hd+)
[Nook HD, HD+ Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] vis1-0n:
Compare to N7 FHD

So, bumping an old thread as the 2013 FHD also has the same resolution.

How does 1920*1200 compare with the Nexus 7" to the HD+ 9"? Is it more comfortable? Or was the 1200*800 the bigger difference on the 7" ( or some current 10.1" devices?) because of the need to zoom and pan.

Basically, 7" & 9" @ 1920/1200, do you still zoom and pan?
[Nook HD, HD+ Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] episode96:
I guess it may be too subjective to give an universal answer. For me, the Nexus 7 is too small regardless of resolution to read complex PDFs on it comfortably. I use Mantano Reader's crop feature to read on my Nook and that way I can read most of them in portrait mode and without the need to do any zooming at all. I wouldn't be able to do that on the Nexus 7.
[Nook HD, HD+ Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] FoxForceFive:
It's definitely subjective as it depends on your eyesight!

However I find it easy to read standard pdf documentation without zooming on the Nook hd+, can't do so on any smaller screen or resolution devices at all.

If the margins on the pdf doc are large I do have to zoom a little on occasion, but only to offset the margin distance, so only once per page, & not on many documents at all.

Incidentally I read tonnes of comics, the resolution & screen size is perfect for that, it's pretty much a ready made comic book reader in the respect.
[Nook HD, HD+ Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] prabhjan:
I'm running CM 10.1.3 on my HD+ and the screen is brilliant. Also, with Force GPU Rendering turned on, and using Adobe Reader, I've had no lag whatsoever on books upto ~4000+ pages (these things are like 500mb PDFs). Haven't tested on bigger PDFs (don't suppose anyone would ever even have to). Great tablet.
[Nook HD, HD+ Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] vis1-0n:
500MB pdf sounds like a scanned document. Is that correct?

I hope there is a decent Black Friday deal with international shipping. Ebay has refurbished models that are cheap but when I consider the international shipping spending a little more would give me the N7 FHD.
[Nook HD, HD+ Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] prabhjan:
Yep. Scanned. Although, let me give you a word of caution if you want to buy one. For some reason, the base UI, on all the ROMs out there is lagparadise. Incredibly poor performance there, but in-app performance is stunning. This thing scored about 17000 on Antutu 4.1.1 as opposed to the 14000 score I was able to achieve on my Galaxy Nexus OC to 1.5GHz (they has the same CPU, but lots of difference). Although, my Gnex's UI never lags. I believe it's that the Nook HD+ has ****ty flash mem. Transfer rates are also terribly slow on internal memory (works as it should on my class 10 mSD though, so it's got to be it.)
[Nook HD, HD+ Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] plexman:
I have both a nexus 7 2013 and a nook hd+ and prefer the nook hd+ due to not having to zoom in. Don't get me wrong you can read detailed pdf's without zooming in on the nexus 7 2013 but it's much better with the 8.9" display on the nook. Also I wasn't happy with the pdf performance of the nook hd+ until I install smartq reader which renders pdf's so much faster than any other app and I've tried them all. At one point I was about to buy a ipad just for pdf's until I found smartq reader.

Use the search engine and look for the thread where unlocking our bootloader is attempted, as long as I remember there was some kind of hardware issue against it and that the omap 4430 chipset in our razr is locked down to take only signed bootloader, which is heavily encrypted by moto.

Even the devs were surprised of what they found when they tore down the chipset (quite different even when compared to the XT910 development edition which comes with unlocked bootloader), whirleyes is very skilled and if he really thought that it worths the risk to try he would have already done, as he said is more possible to kill the phone that way than any other result.
