[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] stirkac:
Yup it's true, but less evident in latest Androids (4+). I think it's down to how software works.

I have bought iPhone because it's only decent phone without roms, and I was a flashoholic (about 10 roms a week). I instantly noticed polish and speed, plus a totally different touch recognition. You can hold one finger on iphone constantly and still do "single finger" stuff-the phone just ignores it after a while. Scrolling also works much nicer after you let go, deceleration seems just right . I started reading this forum only a week or two ago because I think i'm healed after 6 months, and I will get One as soon as it's available in my country (still faiting for lazy carrier f**s). Things OP noticed are very well known to anyone switching. It's normal and you simply have to get used to it. If it starts laging do a restore or flash a rom (and here we go again...)
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] NxNW:
So true. Plenty of interesting points raised so far actually, but why is this in the HTC One forums?
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] godutch:
it takes a while longer before some software is optimized for a new soc, those games will become more fluent.

scrolling is fine, I think apple patented smooth scrolling on mobile devices, just use a different less high profile browser, eg. try opera mobile and see how smooth scrolling can be on Android too.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rockd0gg:
Because the OP thinks that the best phone on the market is not apple enough.

[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] lee480:
Oh ****! After i birck my XPU, now my Ion refused to turn on.

My phone was running perfectly. Till one hour ago, I noticed my battery was not calibrated. At 22% exactly, it will shut down due to low battery. I went to charge it and it will boot normally. But the 22% problem is still there. About the third discharge, my phone refused to charge. The red LED light will shine for 5 mins and vanish. I power the button and there's one vibrate and nothing happens. The cycle continues. HELP!!!
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] blakstar:
Buy a new battery. But to make sure that it is the battery's problem: When buying, tell the vendor to test the phone for you with a new battery

Press thanks if I helped :D

[Nook HD, HD+ Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] BigMacca:
Hi all,

I've got a Nook HD+ running CM10.1 with the hybrid SD card installation (many thanks to everyone who helped develop this - it rocks! :cool:),

and I'm having issues whenever I reboot the device.

When left alone, 9 times out of 10 it will just stay on the Cyanogenmod animation indefinitely (well 10 minutes is the most I've left it)....

It always seems to see the SD card as it never just reboots to stock (always see the Cyanogenmod boot logo) so I can get into CWM or boot the nook to stock.

The only way I seem to be able to get it to boot consistently is to boot into CWM is to re-flash the CM10.1 rom / load the converter zip and the reboot from CWM.

I've installed quick boot into CM10.1 but I've nat managed to get it to install into stock yet as I'm getting the 'Installation Blocked' message - So I'm guessing that I need to sideload that in from my PC (unless I'm missing an obvious way to install this via the stock Nook interface?)

Does everyone else have this issue?

It's not the end of the world as I'll probably only have to boot from cold if I have a crash, but it would be good to know if there are any more graceful solutions out there....?

Also, is there a way to get your PC (windows 7) to read the large partition on the SD card after it has been imaged (so you can write files to it directly)?

Thanks for you help

Macca
[Nook HD, HD+ Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] leapinlar:
When it keeps getting stuck on the boot animation, try going to CWM and the advanced menu and wipe dalvik cache and see if it boots ok. If that does not work, just try flashing the converter without reflashing the CM.

To put quick boot on stock you need to root stock and add at least the extras zip so that unknown sources is authorized. But I recommend the whole gaps + extra zip. Quick boot will not work without root.

And no, there is no way for Windows to see the sdcard partition by directly inserting the card in the PC. You must leave the card in the Nook and use the USB cable.

Sent from my Nook HD+ running CM10 on Hybrid SD
[Nook HD, HD+ Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] BigMacca:
Thanks for the quick reply mate,

I'll try just clearing the dalvik cache next time.

Thanks for clearing up the quick boot thing - I'll root the stock later tonight.

Cheers

[Nook HD, HD+ Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] BigMacca:
Hello again mate,

I might need a little more help it would seem.......

I had read a reply you had posted in another thread that I should be able to just boot into CWM and flash the stock Nook ROM with your zips (even though I already have hybrid CM10.1 installed.

So - I did just that....

Before doing any of this I did do a backup in CWM

I downloaded "NookHD-HDplus-Universal-Root-rev2-(02.02.13).zip" and "NookHD-HDplus-Gapps+Extras.zip" to my internal memory, booted into CWM and Flashed both zip files (universal root rev 2 first).

When I rebooted, I forgot to hold down the nook key to boot to stock and I ended up in CM10.1 but flashing the zips above seemed to have messed around with CM10.1 as I had no apps pinned and the dialogue box asking about which launcher I wanted popped up....?

So I went back into CWM did a restore and re-flashed CM10.1 / Converter.zip's and my CM10.1 installation is now back to normal.

However, it still looks like the stock is rooted as I get the launcher dialogue box and have assess to the google app store etc...

Quick boot still won't work though as it's saying that it can't detect that the device is rooted....

So, If you managed to make it through all that - What did I do wrong and how badly have I messed my nook up?

What do I need to do to successfully root my stock?

:o:o:o:o:o:o:o

Thanks again for your help

Macca
[Nook HD, HD+ Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] BigMacca:
I might have figured it out myself now...

I didn't remove the SD card from the nook after rooting stock before rebooting out of CWM.

I've just re-rooted stock, took the SD card out and then rebooted and it took me into the rooted stock without any issues (quick boot now works as well :D)

CM10.1 also seems to be happy so it looks like I'm golden (it booted 1st time after quick booting out of stock)

Cheers
