It is IMO always good for a refresh/bump of an issue and in this case, a lot of folks here appreciate the issue is the 1080p. Reason being the non + HD is 720p and has no comparable lag and is much smoother with games. Same hardware besides the display.

Why hardware scaling is not built into Android by default hurts my brain. The user should be able to chaneg the res as needed, but appears to be mainly a kernel level adjustment. The 4470 has good hardware scaling. Case in point, MAME Reloaded 140 plays smoother on the Nook HD+ than the 720p TF300 and Excite 7.7. I have both and the HD+ is 10% faster with that emulator. Reason being the 3D GPU function is not leveraged and only trhe scaling output is. 4470 with a better GPU would kill the Tegra 3.

Why hardware scaling is not built into all Android games by default, hurts my brain. The user should be able to chaneg the res as needed, but appears to be mainly a kernel level adjustment.

BTW, some games DO scale and that is why some play smoother than others. Dead Trigger scales, but Asphalt 7 as example tries to push data with every pixel on the display.
[Nook HD, HD+ General] pinguy1982:
Thanks for the Tip.

Here are the settings I am using.

For 720p the settings are:

Width: 768
Hight: 1152
Density (DPI): 140
Then run "Fix navigation bars"

Gives best performance but looks awful. You can see the pixels in the text. It's great for gaming, but not for reading text.

900p

Width: 960
Hight: 1440
Density (DPI): 180
Then run "Fix navigation bars"

This is the best all rounder. It runs games just fine. Moving between races in the menu for Real Racing 3 is silky smooth. Text on web pages etc. look OK, and is very readable, just a bit fuzzy looking.

#EDIT

Review.

Prevention

How can I prevent from bricking my Nook if I already installed it?
[Nook HD, HD+ General] extrem0:
Maybe typing "wm size reset" on terminal emulator. Or "adb shell wm size reset" if you have adb interface working.
[Nook HD, HD+ General] r1c47:
Just thought I'd write here in case someone gets into the same trouble I did after trying this out and it ****ing up the display.

A fix I was able to do was to use the command:

adb shell am display-size reset

to reset the display size back and disable the resolution changer program while I input back the correct display resolutions(1280x1920) and dpi(256), enabled the app to make sure the settings are back to the way they should be, disabled the app once again and then swiftly and promptly terminated it with extreme prejudice by uninstalling it.

Hopefully this will be useful for somebody but I'd much rather hope noone has to go through it.

BTW, I wasn't able to use the adb wm commands posted above for some reason which is why I had to go with this. Maybe it has to do with me using stock 2.2.0 B&N OS, but I don't really know for sure.

How to root Hisense Sero 7 Lite

***Disclaimer - You accept full responsibility if by using these directions your device explodes, leaves you for another owner, or just decides it doesn't like you anymore. I am not responsible!***

*******************************************************

***CREDITS***

I did not create Impactor nor Snappea, Fellow XDA member [MENTION=5350003]microwiz[/MENTION] and I just managed to figure out Impactor works to obtain root on this device

ALL credit for Cydia Impactor tool belongs only to its developer Saurik

***************************************************************

Make SURE you have USB DEBUGGING turned on

First it has been advised to go ahead and accept any OTA updates as of the date of this post before attempting to root, one xda member reported that he failed to obtain root until he accepted the updates.

Next, you will need suitable drivers, there is a way to modify the usb.ini file but a much quicker way is to go to www.Snappea.com and install this program on your PC, it is just a program that allows your phone to better interact with your PC but the bonus is that it can install generic drivers (including that much needed ADB driver) for almost any device! Once snappea is installed simply connect your phone to your PC when Snappea prompts you to.

Finally go here:

http://www.cydiaimpactor.com/

Download Impactor and unzip the file, once unzipped simply open the Impactor folder and double click the Impactor Application. This will pop up a box that says Cydia Impactor at top on your screen. You should see a drop down menu that currently says "# drop SuperSU su into /system/xbin/su". Make sure that command is showing in the drop down box and press the start button on the right side.

Once this completes you will just need to download your favorite Superuser or SuperSU app onto your device then update binary and you are rooted!

Good luck!!

i re-read your previous comment about how it just shows the hisense logo...you need to try to factory reset again and again ...hold power and volume down while its powered off for 10 seconds ...if the hisense sign comes up keep holding it down untill you see the screen flash and its off again and release and press it again and repeat it untill you see the green android guy and then power + vol up...for 3-5 seconds untill menu comes up and try to factory reset it..this should still be a option even if you messed up the system files

recovery

Hi, getting ready to root the Sero 7 lte and was wondering if there is a custom recovery for it, like the 7 Pro. Also has anyone worked a swap between sdcard and ext sdcard? I worked 1 on another device with the vold.fstab file, but really need a backup Factory ROM in case I mess up.
[Hisense Sero 7 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] noobsc0uter:
from what i have found there is no way to recover it but i tried 3 different roots and nothing ever happend to it..Works fine and seems to be 99.9% safe just update the system with newest updated firmware and use impactor and it should go easy
[Hisense Sero 7 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] ALD3:
Thanks for the info. One thing I did notice by accident, is the sero 7 LTE does look and want to install a update.zip. I had 1 that I forgot about on the micro sdcard and when I put it in and turned the tablet on, it kept wanting to install the update. Zip. It ask me several times before I deleted the zip from my micro sdcard. Might be important later.

Rooted

OK rooted my sero 7 lte , using the guide. Tablet connected to USB and a driver installed but adb didn't recognize device, ran cydia impactor anyhow and pushed su binary file. Ran SuperSu and su file was installed but old 1 so updated binary file. Adb still didn't recognize device. Installed Sweatpea and with it running adb did recognize my device but only while sweetpea was running. Thanks for the root guide. I am on windows 7 32 bit, in case anyone was wondering. Now if we just had a cwm or twrp recovery. Anyone have the adb codes for making a backup with stock recovery? I have it for using twrp.

so am i suppose to mount the storage or turn usb debugging on

USB debugging has to be checked on. Install sweatpea and it will connect your device on USB. Then run cydia impactor. Follow the rest of the directions. Good luck.

Snapeea

Snapeea is not installing the proper driver. It will not recognize my HiSense Sero 7 LTE in ADB either. I have edited the install file, and there is nothing with ADB. I've tried forcing the driver, but nothing. Using windows 7 64-bit and USB 2.0 port.
[Hisense Sero 7 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] ALD3:
No its not, your right.'I never could get a driver to work on win 7 32 bit but someone in a thread had mentioned sweat pea so I tried it. It does have to be up and connected to your tablet, then adb works and so does the root file. I can't say on win 7 64 but if sweat pea wasn't connected to the Sero 7 Lt , then try that
[Hisense Sero 7 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] avemt1:

[Hisense Sero 7 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] ALD3:
Sorry I meant Snappea. Here is the link and the root files' it is on the first post by the OP. Use cydia impactor to root but there is no custom recovery yet. It all worked great to root and ad did work while connected to snappea.

Best part of rooting is being able to install link2sd, which helped with the 4 gig internal. With link2sd, you have to partiton the micro sdcard into 2 partitions. Link2sd uses the 2nd partition and the first will be your external SD.

you can use the universal drivers from google and they work, theyre in the sdk. Hopefully someone can post a rom or port cyanogen to the sero 7 lt.
[Hisense Sero 7 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] avemt1:
I tried Snappea, but it is not connecting or finding the driver for the device. I tried forcing the edited .INI to the device, but to no avail.

The universal driver was unable to be applied to this device. I have tried CMD restart of ADB and a few tricks I learned when trying to connect comp to my 4.2.2 phone. This did not work. Eclipse does not fix the issue. Windows cannot find the driver for this, and there is no driver download on the manufacturer's website. I do not know how to fix this, Snappea Does NOT work to apply the driver.

When I try to restart to recovery and go to factory reset I get the android guy laying down with a red triangle with Black Exclamation mark. I beleive this indicates that the recovery is broken?
[Hisense Sero 7 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] ALD3:
No the andy down is normal recovery. You have to push power and + volume quickly to get a menu in recovery with android down. You can do a factory reset from with in settings while tablet is on. Do you have USB Debugging checked? Also watch your tablet when snappea trys to connect, it should ask you if you want the computer to connect and click yes or OK. Another thing that has helped me many time when a device wouldn't connect, is to use a different USB slot on the computer....also a diffent USB cable sometimes works.

Oh yes and if you have a screen lock on tablet, you may want to disable it until your done. Computer can't connect to a screen locked tablet and its quicker to open screen if unlocked.
[Hisense Sero 7 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] avemt1:
Still an issue

I have Android Debugging on, so is MTP. I was able to get into recovery. Did full wipe "Wipe data/Factory Reset". Also, did full reset from the settings menu a different time. Checked for update when got back into device. Did not need update. The tablet is currently on Android 4.1.1. Android 4.1.1 does not have the Notification for the computer confirmation. That was not implemented till 4.2.x. Screen lock is off. Tried different USB port and cable. Snappea still fails to load the driver. I am stuck.

That link is where I first went to get the files for rooting.
[Hisense Sero 7 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] ALD3:
Try it with MTP not checked and the notification that I was talking about is for snappea to install itself on your tablet for the link up. Has nothing to with android. I got it on 4.1.1, 4.0.2 and on 3.2 on a different device, I clicked No on the 3.2 as I didn't want it or need it on that device. You should take any update before you root, many are fixes that doesn't change the version. I didn't see if you tried another USB port on your PC? I know it sounds unnecessary but it will make a device connect when all else fails. Some devices will only work on the back USB ports, as there is a small difference between front and back. I also have changed from one back USB port to another and bingo the PC recognizes the device. Snappea should start automatically when any device is plugged into USB, a lot like iTunes or Kies. Even before anything is installed for that device. First time I connected the Sero 7 Lt, snappea started and wanted to connect, I hadn't connected it but tried adb with command adb devices and adb did recognize it, so I ran the root bat files and went great. I'm not sure what else to tell you? Only other thing is try a different computer and see if it recognizes it.
[Hisense Sero 7 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] Klown80:
All files needed to root this device are posted in first post, root program and drivers.

If you are still having issues I would be happy to help you get your Sero LT rooted via Teamviewer if you can not get it yourself. Try starting Snap Pea on your PC with the phone disconnected at first, once snap pea opens connect phone to PC. Then you should see a message that it is installing drivers and then you should see a message saying it is "frobulating" your phone. If all goes correctly you should see your device in Snap pea. IF it does not install drivers what kind of error message do you get? Does it show any device listed in Device manager with a yellow exclamation mark next to it? If not then that is not a data cable, it is for charging only. Also - make sure you are using a USB2 port, not a USB3. You can tell the difference by looking inside the USB port on the PC, if it is blue then it is USB3 and wont work (USB3 doesnt seem to play nicely with android devices and windows based rooting programs/scripts.)

If you do get it to connect and install ADB driver, you need to leave snap pea running or it stops you from seeing phone in ADB.

I agree with [MENTION=4239370]ALD3[/MENTION], it sounds like it may be an issue with the cable you are using to connect to PC or it is the USB port you are using. I have helped probably 20 xda members root their Sero LT and have never had this kind of issue so it is isolated to just you meaning it is something on your end and we need to check to make sure you are getting a proper connection first.
[Hisense Sero 7 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] Apetrick:
The cable that came with the device does not work well with it when its connecting to the computer, i had to hold the cable in a certain place in the port till it would connect, i ended up just buying another cable and it helped a lot. Any chance someone will post the default rom for this device, mine is still fubared and it would be great if someone could help.

EDIT: to get the files run

dd if=/ of=/mnt/sdcard/root.img

dd if=/system of=/mnt/sdcard/system.img

that will make two image files one of the root partition and one of the system partition which would help a lot for me thanks.

No driver

Can't find a driver for Win 7 64 bit. SnapPea couldn't either.

Phooey. I bought this tablet to (try to) develop an app.
[Hisense Sero 7 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] ALD3:
Is windows seeing your device and trying to install drivers or just not even recognizing the tablet? Do have or have you tried using a different USB cord or a different USB slot on your PC? I don't understand snappea not starting as soon as you plug the tablet in. It jumps up for all my devices, even in recovery and while windows is still looking for drivers. Have you tried another computer? Sometimes pdanet drivers will work for android devices. ONE thing maybe if you have a bad micro SD port on the tablet, I had a Nexus 7 that did. It would charge fine but NOT hook up USB. If that's it then return it.
[Hisense Sero 7 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] avemt1:
Sounds like that's what I'm going to have to do. Return it. I've tried everything suggested. It pulls up the driver in plain/ mtp, but not in debug/ MTP. Tried different cord/ USB port. Nothing has worked.
[Hisense Sero 7 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] ALD3:
OK well have you tried to root while connected MTP? I know it sounds wrong but have read where some devices would only root I'm MTP. Worth a try
[Hisense Sero 7 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] Wyatt Storches:
Thanks for your reply .... the thing would show up in device manager, but no driver. Windows reported driver install failing. SnapPea would pop up every time I plugged it in and then report failure on installing driver. I did try different cables and physical ports. Maybe it did have a bad connector.

So I reset it and took it back to Wally World before my 15 days was up. Swapped it out for a Next 8, 10 bux more. Thanks for trying!
