[Nook Touch General] Crispy3000:
I have only used two of above for 4 x NST not a NSTG so far.

Now I've literally got two NSTG arrived today waiting at home for me to play with (Just been reduced to £49 in UK so I expect a lot more visitors to this forum asking such questions).

If your new to Nook simple touch devices then please be aware of firmwares. A lot of older more mature stuff for NST relies on the v1.1 firmware base. All new NST and NSTG in UK and other places will already be on v1.2 from factory.

NookManager is newer and supports v2. It has a backup feature. Before anything else boot off it. Backup your NSTG. Connect usb cable to PC while using Nookmanager and copy the backup to a PC.

I would also use Noogie and make another backup a different way.

That way if you screw anything up and or don't like root method you can go back.

Before rooting I strongly recommend registering your stock nook and if your going to stick with version 2 update to latest one following instructions on B&N website.

Touchnooter is a lot older and I tend to use that when I am using a v1 base (you lose some features but can gain a very quick lag free multitouch norefresh NST).

I have never used glownooter. Obviously it sounds more NSTG specific which is a good thing.

Personally I don't know how much the NST and NSTG differ internally. Certainly if you start messing around with different kernels make sure they support NSTG or you may lose the glow ability.

I will be trying the NookManager route first. Highly recommend coolreader app as alternative to BnN reader.

I'll let you know how it goes with mine. I will be using it stock for little while first though.

Oh the kindle app did not work that great when I tried it. If you really want kindle that much is it worth buying one..... Certainly if its not up to your standard then use your backup return nook to stock. Only then de-register device and return it.

If running v2 firmware then rather than norefresh (works best on v1) you would be after fastmode. I would not recommend that for reading ebooks. Scrolling PDFs maybe.

Noogie guide for backing up

You can use winimage mention in above guide to stick Nookmanager on a sdcard too.

When booting off Nookmanager say no to wifi, Rescue->Backup, Use rest of space on SD card, create backup.

Obviously make sure your device is well charged and choose a big enough sd card to hold the backup. Its about 300MB compressed. As the backup is stored on a second partiton on the sd card windows won't easily be able to access it. To copy to PC once complete plug a usb cable in while running nookmanager and it will appear as mass storage device. Some of my nook's usb cables were charge only ones (very handy) so if cable is thin and long use a different cable.

Also for others reading the NSTG also comes with the most compact usb charger I've ever seen. Its actually smaller than my samsung one. NST comes with no charger.

The nook glow-light I am trying to root has 1.1.5 firmware. The device got rooted but the market app doesn't work properly in order to download the opera browser (the other one doesn't work either), and the amazon app store keeps telling me: "Please enter a valid email and password" and doesn't let me log in with the same credentials that I use to log in from my pc. The opera app isn't even listed among the handful of apps listed on the Market app. What can the problem be? How can it be fixed? If I can't properly use this old nook model as an e-ink android I will have to return it. The only reason I purchased it was to root it.

If anyone know the fix please explain it to me in simple terms as I am not a great tech savvy.

Thx.
[Nook Touch General] NOOK!E:
You should definitely return to stock firmware and update to 1.2.1 before anything else. Then, you can re-root and enjoy.

Restoring to stock and re-rooting can be done with the NookManager rooting tool. Updating your software version can be done by following the instructions at B&N.

Any ideas? This should be really easy :-)

a single p ~ 5 sec (I don't remember exactly). Therefore put "pp" if U want 10 sec pause.
[Samsung Captivate Glide] ChrisOboe:
Hey,

i've got a little problem. I can't use most of the calendar apps. I think it's because i use LiteROM which is based on stock UCALJ3 and this rom doesn't provide a CalendarProvider.apk. Of course i could use a stand-alone calendar app which doesn't depend on the android calendar thing but i would rather use the android calendar way because i can use different backends like caldav which most stand-alone calendar apps don't support.

I tried copying the CalendarProvider.apk from my CM10 Xperia Sola but it didn't worked.

My question is: is there a way to make it work? would a cm9 CalendarProvider.apk work because it's ics?

Here is my transparent Google Play Store 4.3.11. You must be rooted and have an unlocked bootloader to flash the zip. I would suggest going into your system/app folder and saving your Phonesky file some place else before flashing mine, just in case. Once that is done then make sure you are in WP bypass mode and flash away, enjoy!

[G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bova80:
so a couple times now I've had the notification light start blinking red when i've had no notifications. is this telling me there is an error or something? subsequently I've also had it it flash green after getting a text and clearing the notification, it just wouldn't stop unless I opened the stock messaging app which I don't use anymore and have the notifications turned off for.

my main concern is the flashing red, usually have to restart it to get it to go away.
[G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] hd-renegade:
Umm I think it flashes red when the phone is on the charger. Have you looked in Settings/Display/Notification light. Click on the Notification Light and it will open another screen.
[G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] DaT Franchise:
Make sure your notification for text isn't set to repeat, for me that setting causes ghost notification, if your on the default out of the box settings cycling the phone a few times, power on off a few times and try that.
[G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bova80:
yeah I know it's red when charging but this is off the charger. Also I'm rooted and don't use the stock messaging app, I use textra, the notifications on the stock app are all turned off. I do have led colors set for different people when I get texts though, but like I said I had no notifications when it was flashing. Hasn't happened again yet but I'll keep watching.

Thanks for posting this! I thought I was going nuts as the damn light was blinking and I could not figure out why. I figured it out just this morning as I was looking through my list of Gmail "folders" that I had received an email in one of them. Once I cleared that the light stopped.

I believe it flashes red when you are at 20% or below in battery life. Was your battery life in that range at the time?
[G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bova80:
seems to be random colors now and only happens when I'm in my car and get a text. I'm thinking it something to do with textra and my texts coming in through my ford touch system. when I first connected the bluetooth it asked if I wanted messages sent to the system and I said no, but it did it anyways. I'd actually prefer to turn this off but there is no way on the phone I can see.

Hi

Quite a while ago i had software on my Symbian OS Nokia that worked as an answer machine. It was great. I have had no luck finding one for the Pocket PC. Has anyone seen one about.

Some key advantages included:

No cost for reteiving messages from the network

Quick access to messages

Multiple answer recording depending on caller and situation ie friend calls answer 'hi man in a meeting leave a message' vs business caller 'Sorry i am in a meeting at moment...'

I have found a couple that uses sms to reply but none that actually record the voice.

Any ideas?

Hi

I have been doing a lot of investigation into this subject as i think its a neat idea. I know it has been asked many many many times before in this forum as i have dredged deep into the archives so I'm just wanting to share some info as to what i have found and find out if there have been any new developments since the last relivant posts a few months ago.

I have found this software i used to use called smartanswer for a symbian nokia

http://www.symbianware.com/product.php?id=sanswer60&pl=n6600

So i know it is possible on a similar system but different OS. I haven't managed to found any real reason for it not being able to be done on a pocket pc yet although I'm sure there is a reason or else it would have been created several times over already.

Anyway its just my small blabber wasting time in my lunch break.
[MDA III, XDA III, PDA2k, 9090 General] vijay555:
phatbloke:

I've been asked about this numerous times, and you say that you've found no good reason why it's not happened yet:

Basically, as I understand it, and I know next to nothing about this area, but basically, the Phone PocketPC is just a pocketpc with an entirely seperate piece of hardware for the phone. The two are independant.

Inorder to control the "phone", the pocketpc comunicates with it through a COM port, sending commands to start calls, data connections etc. However, as I understand it, we have no direct means to access the audio/in out. So, although this is bog standard on many intelligent phones, the pocketpc was never designed around phone hardware, but merely slapped on piggyback.

Being able to record the calls is obviously essential to the answering machine. Some of the clever boys on this site have said that this is impossible or unlikely until we reverse engineer the drivers, and this hasn't happened yet AFAIK. Again, if this is all ball-ocks then someone please correct.

I can monitor missed calls, hangup incoming calls, log all that and so on, but spooling audio in and playing something down the line evades us for now.

Look here towards the end for discussion and futile ideas I had:

PS if you follow the first thread, someone mentioned that Resco Sound recorder can record both in and outgoing audio on calls. Can you try that software? If that works, it might be possible. But I've seen no verification and don't have the opportunity to check it myself.

Hi all,

I am understanding; Microsoft don't publish some "sensitive" APIs like recording audio from downlink, etc. ..... I am Symbian Software Engineer; That is everyday life for me. :)

So, while using Symbian, you have the possibility to make requests to Symbian or Nokia for getting access to their internal API. We do that several times... perhaps for muting microphone, GSM trace information, etc. Exists there a business case to get access to Microsofts internal API?

A contact will be very helpfully!

Thanks a lot!

Guys, I just made an account to thank you all for this thread. I just noticed, after more than 4 months, that the left side of the grill isn't "working" (there was no sound coming out).

I got the Android 4.3 update today and my notifications seemed to be quieter than before at the same volume setting. I tried to factory reset my phone twice and it's the same. I was about to take it back to the store tomorrow. :) Guess they just recalibrated the sound volume setting in the new update. Thanks again. :)
