[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] thelivingdead188:
Hey I seem to be having some trouble with my Nook Tablet. I've got the 16gb version, bought it within the first month or so of the tablets getting released. It's been running fine, i have it rooted, ran cm7 for the longest time on it, switched to cm10.1 more than a few months ago and everything was pretty great, then crap started going downhill.

I noticed that when my battery would get down between 20-30% it would just shut down. The low battery screen would come on for a split second before the "tablet is shutting down" screen would pop up in front of that and it would shut down.

Now, since then it's been happening more and more. When it's at anything lower than 96ish% it'll happen. But it's got some weird symptoms.

- The screen freaks out. Like there's 100 fingers on it pushing a ton of crap at once, when I'm not touching it at all. it's sensing a bunch of false touches that usually ends on the Google Now screen before getting the same old low battery, then tablet shutting down notifications.

- It only happens when it's running on the battery. It's never ever happened while it's plugged in.

- It only seems to happen when the wifi is on. If the wifi is off and i'm at home just reading a book or something, it'll drain all the way down to 15 or whatever before telling me the battery is low, I plug it in, all is fine. If the wifi is turned on the freak out happens.

- If it starts freaking out and I plug it in while it's happening, 1 of 2 things, It either completely stops and everything works fine, or it just turns off dead right there, not shutting down, just turning off.

- I HAVE had it drain pretty low (around 23ish) with the wifi on, but it did do the same freak out thing once it got there. It just seems to be so random when it happens, any time the battery is between 15 and 96%.

- If I turn it back on after a freak out without plugging it in first, it will restart fine, then last about a minute or 2, freak out again and shut off. If I turn it on again after that it'll do the exact same thing. And if i turn it on again after that it'll get to the CM10 boot screen, just about to where it's going to go to the lock screen, then boom, makes the beedoop battery sound and shuts off without ever actually showing the lock screen. THAT happens everytime just like that. If I plug it in first and then turn it on, it runs fine.

I've tried factory reset and reinstalling and all that stuff, nothing seems to be working. I even started from scratch not letting google or titanium backup restore my apps, completely formatted and wiped the sd card when reinstalling, nothing seems to be fixing it.

Basically this thing is useless without being plugged in. Ive even lost a 32gb sd card because of it's constant just turning off screwing it up (i'm guessing) since it's not being properly dismounted or whatever before being shut off. That card cant seem to read/write anymore. I now have a 16gb in there I'm hoping wont get screwed up because of the same thing (although I'm sure it will eventually if this isnt fixed)

Is this a battery issue? A hardware issue? User Issue? Can anyone help? I can provide any information you might need.

I've been searching for months trying to find an answer, but the symptoms are so weird I cant find anyone having the same problem as me..

Also, my fiancee also has the same Nook tablet, bought them the same day, rooted and hacked them the same way that day, and put CM10.1 on both of ours the same way the same day, hers is fine, mine is acting a fool. (I also use mine about 1000x more than her though, I use mine for EVERYTHING, EVERYDAY, she reads Sandra Brown books and watches YouTube movies once every month and a half)

Help? =[
