CPU heavy apps like MAME and PSX. The Nook is faster. The Nexus 7 also bogs down when using apps and using the device at the same time. Nook so far has not. Dual channel memory would be a factor in that. I notice no difference with any of my noted devices between ICS and JB. Benchmarks I do, though do not see it. The bottleneck with Tegra 3 is the single channel memory.

I prefer using the Nook over the TF300 now and have it set to performance mode.

Debates aside, whatever BN did to get the near iPad 4 level low battery bleed I'm sleep mode should bottle it up and sell to other OEs. I did not think and Android device could be this conservative in sleep mode.

Any chance you could do an simplified guide for this? That page is a beast.I don't want to break my Nook as it belongs to my Mrs.

thanks

I followed the instructions and flashed the extras rev 3 package. Flash 11.1 works great!! Thanks! :)
[Nook HD, HD+ General] rushless:
As already noted in the instructions, be VERY careful choosing the drive with Win32DiskImager, since it will not default to the sd card. You have to pick the drive on the right hand side of the app.
[Nook HD, HD+ General] Taosaur:
I personally prefer WinImage for burning cards--some systems have trouble with one or the other program.
[Nook HD, HD+ General] harryzee:
FYI: Ok with N2A card, not okay with 2.1. My example is the NASA app which should be fairly pedestrian with its demands. Had a small handful of others that worked with N2A but will not install on 2.1 and forgot to write them down. I know I could go in and change the build.prop but would prefer to think that those days are over. Otherwise, kudos to BN for this release. Was great watching "GoT" (HBOGo) and "The Borgias" (Showtime Anytime). New Starz Play app works but was not up-to-date with the latest "Divinci's Demons" episode.
[Nook HD, HD+ General] rushless:
Since flashing unknown sources, all of my side loaded apps work as well as Market ones that said not for current device.

I have installed a few hundred apps (285). Same as my other devices. The one app that partly works for me is Zen Pinball. I have all but three tables they offer and all of them work great except the three Star Wars tables. When I pick those games, the app locks up when loading them.

Added: Flash sites like Southpark Studios and ESPN work great with Flash 11.1 installed.

Update: 5/9: Sadly seems by business speculation was correct. BN are trying to stop the bleeding of cash and purging inventory so they can reposition their P&L going forward. To make the deal with the devil and virtual enemy (Microsoft) they must have HUGE debt with their tablets.

Does it have to be a 4Gb Sandisk microSD card? I have a 16Gb microSD card, not sure what class it is either - would that work?
[Nook HD, HD+ General] leapinlar:
If you are talking about which SD to use for burning the CWM to, then any size is ok 4GB or larger. But to make it boot best, it should be a SanDisk class 4. But other brands and classes do work, but not always reliably.

[Nook HD, HD+ General] rushless:
I used a 16GB, since that was the smallest I have and do not use it (have 32 and 64s). It worked fine for me (basic Sandisk card).
[Nook HD, HD+ General] pnepreston:
Yes, it was - thanks.
[Nook HD, HD+ General] pnepreston:
Got Flash working - lovely.

What other apps can I sideload now then which shouldn't work on the Nook HD+?
[Nook HD, HD+ General] leapinlar:
Google Voice won't.

I have to say that I'm truly happy with my new Nook HD purchase. Running 2.1 and it feels better than the Nexus 7 to me. There are some stutters with certain Nook UI screens, but in apps this thing seems beefier than the 7. Pulse runs better as well as Chrome. Games I've tried seem at a minimum on par with the Nexus 7.

Just sold my 7 on ebay and this HD looks like it will easily carry me along till my next tablet purchase.
[Nook HD, HD+ General] nikonx:
Odd that you don't notice a difference between ICS and JB. I forgot how jittery and laggy Android (prior to JB) was until I got a Nook HD+ and a Kindle Fire HD 8.9. Project Butter in JB made a massive difference in the smoothness in every part of the operating system and it was the first time that Android was able to compete with iOS in terms of smoothness. The lag I experienced when using stock Nook and Kindle Fire was definitely attributed to being a skinned ICS software. All the lag pretty much went away when I flashed CM 10.1 on both devices.
[Nook HD, HD+ General] pbassjunk:
Agree. Got the wife a Nexus 7 for mothers day (I'd purchased it long before the nook sale, which is ironic/irritating for me because she probably would have preferred a Nook HD as she was coming from a nook color (and could have saved some $)) and the HD+ is equally smooth/fast as the 7 is (w/ CM10.1).
[Nook HD, HD+ General] View92612:
I changed my mind.

If you are only using the Nook HD+ to read books and do web browsing, I think the stock rom might be okay.

After testing the stock for a while I found the UI is not only laggy but also buggy. I was playing Dungeon Hunter 4 and sometimes the buttons would stop working all of a sudden for no reason. In one worst case, I went back to the home screen using the "n" button. Then I tried to go back to my game by clicking on the icon, it somehow kept trying to get me back to the Google Play store instead. And the "back" button also stopped working so I could not get out of Google Play unless I press the "n" button. I never had such issues with either of my HTC Amaze on ICS, Amazon Kindle HD 7 on ICS, or my Nexus 7 on JB. I have decided to get rid of the stock rom and switch to CM10.1 on emmc.

I don't think I will ever want to go back to stock even if BN provides an update. The UI just leaves a lot to be desired... I also don't like Kindle Fire HD 7 and I have one only because it was a gift. Modified Android is not really my cup of tea. HTC Sense is not perfect either but at least it's relatively less buggy.
[Nook HD, HD+ General] rushless:
I have noticed some games freak out, like Shadowgun. The virtual controls would stick as example, but a device restart fixed it. I am wondering if some apps sometimes mess up due to the high res display.

The one thing that does get annoying for me is the bottom right corner getting hot. A case would help, but will also reduce effective heat dissipation.

As far as a UI, I use Nova.

What are the pros and cons of using a custom rom like CM10.1? I would install as main OS and not as sd card boot only.
[Nook HD, HD+ General] View92612:
Pros:

1. Much better UI with the 3 buttons I am used to. Able to go back in most cases without having to use the "n" button.

2. Faster IO than SD card. (Had 1418 on Class 4 SD and now 2133 based on Quadrant)

3. Strong HTML5 web browsing. (Vellamo HTML 5 benchmark - 1836, stock rom - 1378, stock scored the same as Nexus 7)

4. No bloatware and no annoying "sync with library" messages

5. Almost complete freedom to customize the OS environment

6. Someone reported less heat than stock. Maybe better power management? I feel the same when playing games.

Does CM10.1 use CPU power more efficiently like using hardware decoding? Seems to have less heat with CM10.1.

Neutral:

1. 3D Gaming 44 FPS on par with stock (Based on Epic Citadel 3D benchmark)

Cons:

1. Lose access to B&N App store and free Apps on Fridays (not sure if this is a big loss since I have Amazon App Store with one free app

every day.)

2. Lose B&N free book offers? (not sure if this can be saved by installing Nook reader app?)

3. Lose B&N support and may need to flash back to stock rom for warranty services

4. Some minor bugs (random flickering in system settings screen)

5. Quadrant benchmark reports much worse memory(ram) performance (stock has 4042 CM10.1 has 2425)

To me the pros far outweigh the cons. Also I did notice web browsing is much better once moving to emmc.

SD card IO performance(based on the class 4 I have) is just very bad.

Thanks for the input! Can I install over the current rom, or is this a full start from scratch? I appreciate it is cleaner from scratch, but would like to avoid reinstalling all the apps again. I would at least like to try, if possible.
[Nook HD, HD+ General] Jd6J0r:
Ha, ha! That was me :laugh: It's important to set the Echo Cancellation (I used the Basic setting). I haven't tried Skype yet. Hopefully, this week.

If you have CM on SD you can restore a backup. But if you only have stock, you must wipe and start fresh.

Sent from my Nook HD+ running CM10.1 on emmc.
[Nook HD, HD+ General] rushless:
It would be too huge, since I have all my apps installed *that would, some not compatible" totaling 22GB. One thing I notice though is the 10.1 apparently changes the sd for internal data installs to the external card. I use the external as a swap for higher def movies, PSX roms, MAME and comics. Having to always leave the same card in is not a practical option for me, so I guess I will stick with 2.1, Nova and the Extras.zip. :)

I like being able to swap cards, so prefer the storage of app data to remain in the device and is why I got the 32GB model. I am glad I read the emmc thread, since would have missed that and been a major "Doh!" moment for me.
[Nook HD, HD+ General] leapinlar:
You can use Titanium Backup to back up the installed apps on stock and restore them to the newly installed CM10.1. It is just a nandroid backup and restore you cannot do. And of course you cannot restore the system app settings with TB.
[Nook HD, HD+ General] View92612:
UPDATE: After playing dungeon hunter 4 for 2-3 hours the Nook HD+ became quite warm just like the stock.

Also I had a weird problem, the touch interface stopped working in game and I had to use the N button to go back to desktop.

But then the 3 standard buttons and anything on the home screen also don't work.

The solution: Turn off the display using the power button. Turn it back on and everything worked again.

Not sure if the problem was due to overheating. But at least I didn't have to reboot...
[Nook HD, HD+ General] rushless:
At least two things can cause that. Heat (most likely) and a glitch that made the os think the card got unmounted. A little time and a device restart would fix both.

I have learned to luv stock, since need to swap cards. Leap's efforts make luving stock fairly easy :)

As far as heat, the HD+ does get up there to some degrees. Mainly 3D games.
[Nook HD, HD+ General] View92612:
Actually, a restart is not required. I only had to turn off the display and turn it back on. And dungeon hunter 4 is a 3D game indeed...

I think it could be worse if I play Wild Blood... It's even more graphic intensive... even the nexus 7 gets quite warm with those games.

However I never had any similar problems with Nexus 7.

[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshoot] Andy S:
AT&T today announced a 32GB version available 5/10. I bought the Sprint 16GB since my ancient (by phone standards) EVO 4G was rebooting anytime the 3G radio did much work. I'd have gone for the 32GB now knowing how app installs work with Jelly Bean.

Any rumors of Sprint bringing out the 32GB? Tempted to return mine and activate my wife's old Nexus S for a couple of weeks until we're sure a 32GB isn't right around the corner.

Probably not a ton, as I don't think I've seen them in a store. Admittedly, I didn't try very much as I wasn't in the market for myself.

Heck, if they can sell a purple S3, they should offer a 32GB S4 for heavier users.

You may or not get a bootanimation, it's kinda random. Give it a few minutes and if it still isn't booting re-boot. It does boot!

As always, clean install. And nandroid beforehand.

[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] RayTrue04:
Ok so after many years with this problem I found out what's the culprit. Whenever I get a new Android phone and sign in to my Gmail account it breaks wifi. If I don't sign in to my Gmail it works fine wether if I have Google location services and notify me of networks checked. I think the problem is Google itself restoring backed up wifi settings.

I guess when they made the wifi policy changes on ics from gb it broke wifi and a hard reset will fix it but if you sign in to Gmail it'll restore all your wifi history from the day you first opened up your Google account.. Is there a way I can wipe everything wifi related? Or better yet a way I can forward this to Google? Their help links just send you in circles :banghead:

Edit: Anyone knows why wifi sucks up more power than it did back in Gingerbread? Back then you could keep it on stay awake always and battery was great. After ics if your wifi is set to stay awake its a big battery drainer.. What changed?

Actually I remember ics brought the option to switch from 2.4ghz to 5ghz. I see that on Jellybean the option was removed so I guess both frequencies are on automatically at all times now.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] budde2:
I'M Sorry this Made me laugh because l

It was annoying! I found a fix finally and now for once my wifi sleeps when I set it to never :beer:
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] DarkManX4lf:
I'm confused. What are you setting to never?

Also what do you mean by your wifi doesn't sleep? Like it doesn't turn off when the screen is off?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] RayTrue04:
Keep wifi on during sleep set to never. Meaning your wifi goes to sleep when screen is off. It wasn't working properly for me.. Hasn't been since my E4GT days. Using the E4GT without signing in to my account is how I realized my google account had something to do with it. With no account it sleeps fine but the min I sign in it stops working then if I hard reset it's fixed. When you have it set to never you should see 3G activated when you turn screen on then wifi kicks back in automatically.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] DarkManX4lf:
This works for me on cm10.1. My wifi turns off when the phone is sleep.
[Samsung Galaxy Gio GT-S5660] zerowalker:
Is it possible to change so that i can use the volume buttons to skip forward and backwards in music?

As currently, i have to drag my finger, and i don´t know if it´s my phone or the apps, but it isn´t always perfect, sometime it doesn´t sense that i drag, so i have to spam it.

And anyhow, it´s very hard to make fast small skips. For example, i listen to an Audio Book, i don´t hear a word randomly, so i want to back like 5 secs.

Well i have to first press the home button to get the screen lit up. Then Unlock the phone (i know i can disable this).

And finally i have to drag 5 secs back. And while it is possible if the clip is very short, like 30-1 min. But when it´s 4-5min, it´s pretty impossible.

So if i could make the volume buttons work as a skip button when i play music, it would be perfect.
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] raafa17:
Hello I have looked everywhere online and in these forums to try to fix this but nothing has worked. My issue is that I have a Samsung Nexus s 4g that was on sprint then was flashed to Boost but it never activated because we cancelled the line. That was some time ago, now I am trying to use the same phone on the ting service which uses sprint towers. Here is what I have tried so far.

Ting asked for the MEID DEC and they activated the line with a phone number, MSL and MSID. I used QPST to change the phone number and the MSID.

I also tried changing the PRL but im not sure which one works best for my phone. I need help with this to?

I then went ahead and flashed the stock rom onto my phone and that didn't work.

I also used DFS to try to change the ESN (hex and Dec) and MEID (hex and dec) using numbers from whiteRabbit but everytime I write I get a CPS_ERROR BAD_SECURITY_MODE. BTW when I read the MEID the DEC is different from what is in the back of the battery case. I think if I can rewrite these number I can activate my line but I get that error I mentioned.

I then Downloaded QXDM and tried these codes using my esn and meid hex:

mode offline-d

spc 000000

RequestNVItemRead scm

RequestNVItemWrite scm 0x3a

RequestNVItemWrite esn 0xXXXXXXXX (Your (p)ESN from WhiteRabbit)

RequestNVItemWrite meid 0xA00000XXXXXXXX (Your MEID Hex from WhiteRabbit)

RequestNVItemRead esn

no luck.

Thats all I have tried. What do I need to do to get my phone back to sprint so that I can use Ting service? Please reply any help will be greatly appreciated.
