Hi all,

I was previously an iPhone user and there's this app on cydia called SwipeShiftCarat.

Basically it lets you move the cursor by sliding your finger across anywhere on the screen.

And in my opinion is one of the best jailbreak apps out there. I was wondering if there is a similar app for android?

hi guys

today i bought this phone & this phone is very smooth

i am facing one problem, my PC Companion is not detecting my xperia l as i wanted to transfer some files to internal storage

in PCC it is showing no phone connected

please help me guys
[Sony Xperia L] Marius Cristian:
When you connect your phone at PC it will ask you to install PCC.Tap proceed and then all will be fine.You could also enable USB debugging from Settings -> Developer options.

If the window to Install PCC doesn't pop up and you connect USB just go to Settings->Xperia and tick Install PCC.Then connect the USB.At USB connection mode select MTP(it's usually set this way by default,but who knows).Good luck!

Hi guys,

I'm planning to buy a G pro, as i like big phones.

In my country the E986 is sold, on technical specs it's written Bluetooth V3 (specs on LG site).

I can find E988 with BT V4, but as i understand, E988 is not the best if i want to install alternatives ROM.

So is it an error on LG's french site, or do they have differents BT ver. ?

The E980 (ATT US version) and the E988 (International Version) both have Bluetooth V4 which is the current version.

You could walk into the MTN SP shops and buy it cash there, but they'll gouge you with the massively inflated price of around ZAR14,000.

Better get the contact and then downgrade to an el cheapo three months later.

Otherwise you can phone Leaf Wireless, the South African distributors for i-mate, and get one through them. I heard from a friend-of-a-friend that they're charging around ZAR10,000 for the priviledge, but I do not know this first-hand.

[Nook Color General] RedCello:
Hi!

I really appreciate this. I'm trying to update my nook color instead of buying a nexus 7 since I only need a 'tablet' for basic things. I'm really new to all of this, and did an SD root of 7.0.1 since my attempts of 10.2 left my nook super slow. I'm looking to do a full root now that my warranty is up and the 7.0.1 just isn't meeting my needs.

I'm going to attempt the route you went down. Can you provide any links that you used? Sorry if this is asking for too much... I'm really new to all of this and don't know where to start.

Do you find that your programs stop responding at all? I am having the issue now and my main goal is to get that to stop. I'm not sure if thats a rom problem, an SD card problem... or something I did wrong. I hope to use my NC to read, surf the web, email, sync with google calendar... and access google drive.
[Nook Color General] webman2k:
Hello RedCello,

Yeah - first thing I tried when I got the Nook was the latest CM nightly. And while it was pretty cool to have the latest Android running on 3 year old hardware, it certainly showed. The biggest drawback of the hardware is RAM. The Nook only has 512mb, and running modern apps can take up quite a bit. That's why the most important part of any mod for this hardware is good RAM management. Stock 7.2 is good, but I was constantly running out of RAM, resulting in very sluggish app performance, much like you're experiencing. Keeping Clean Master (free from the store) installed and wiping the ram when it notified me kept things moving, but when I finally tried the MiRaGe ROM, I didn't even have to use it. I wouldn't say it runs like a Nexus, but even animations run relatively smoothly, and I have no trouble with Netflix, Dolphin, Facebook, Feedly, Youtube, and others.

If you have recovery installed to the EMMC, you can grab the latest ROM and kernel updates at the link below. All you'll need are those two zips, and the gapps for 7.2:

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1344873

http://goo.im/gapps

The MiRaGe thread has all the instructions for that rom, and here's the link to the general EMMC install instructions:

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1030227

If you only installed to an SD before, this will guide you to create the bootable SD, from which you can install the 3 zips. Pretty simple, and the result is a VERY functional old tablet.

Thanks so much! I'm going to give it a shot either tonight or tomorrow. I might post again in I run across any issues. Thanks again!
[Nook Color General] RedCello:

I noticed you mentioned that you could freeze items and such, I don't see those options which makes me wonder if I'm doing something wrong. Any clue?
[Nook Color General] webman2k:
Forgot that part, I'll update the OP. Tap and hold the items you want to remove to get the full menu, then choose delete. It'll work from there.
[Nook Color General] RedCello:

[Nook Color General] webman2k:
No problem, glad I could help. I'm actually quite surprised at how capable this tablet is, considering the specs.
[Nook Color General] top-dog:
Thanks for this. I've been using CM 10.1.3 but it was real sluggish. I had some success with the V6 Supercharger, but I may give the MiRaGe 7.2 if it works as well as you say.

[Nook Color General] webman2k:
I really like the nightlies, and if they bring KitKat to the Nook Color, I'll surely try that. However, in my trials, NOTHING touches the speed and stability of this rom. Also, there's tons more free ram on a CM7 base, which helps tremendously. But the most important difference is the touch screen responsiveness. With CM7 (and MiRaGe), the touchscreen responds instantly and accurately. The CM10 builds - through to the latest nightlies - all have responsiveness issues with the screen. Some apps require multiple touches, etc.

You're not getting the latest and greatest features here, but what I was looking to do was get the best balance of features and performance, to make this old tablet something I'd want to use on a daily basis. This rom does it for me.
[Nook Color General] JoshMcMadMac:
The Nook screen re-calibrator app fixed the screen issues for me.
[Nook Color General] webman2k:
It seems to help, but I think it's an issue of resources as well. on CM7, taps equal a response every time. There are some instances where I have to tap a few times on the nightly, or the tap zone is "off". It'll always work, but it can be very sensitive. For example, navigating Netflix can be frustrating at times. It can read a tap as a swipe if it's not precise enough. I don't seem to have that problem on CM7 builds.

I've gone back to the nightlies right now, to see the progress, and I'm incredibly impressed. If anything, it gets me excited for 4.4. From what I've read, that'll really breath new life into this tablet.
[Nook Color General] Reige1:
Thanks for the great writeup, have had my Nook for awhile and keep updating and since the latest one I noticed alot of weird things and bad batter life. Did what you suggested and everything seems to be working better now. Was just wondering if anyone would suggest a more lightweight launcher or is ADW the best for battery life (or does it really make a difference)? And any other suggestions for increasing battery life would be helpful to :)
[Nook Color General] manrom:
I started with official cm7.2 and went up and down the cm tree ( cm9, cm10, phiremod) and then some ParanoidAndroid,MIUI, . Somewhere in between I found the mirage rom and to be honest by this time, all I needed my nook color was for the kids and their apps and constant usage of many apps in just a few minutes. That was the the Deciding factor and for some reason mirage ROM got laggy as hell when it was 'multitasking'. I also was not able to get the USB host to work and V6 supercharger has some problems and did not install some scripts, nook tweaks CPU settings were incompatible and WiFi title was a trouble for the kids since enabling/disabling would take them into the settings and they would muck everything up in there.

So I stuck with the official cm7.2 with the help of v6 supercharger (supercharge,kick as kernelizer, battery calibrator), voltage and stepping tweaks with the help of Nook Tweaks on the market, flash player (pre ics) and adding adw ex.

Let's see addressing the YouTube not playing hd even download vids , you can help by installing rolletube side by side with official YouTube app (g**gle it) or

How does CM11 in its current state compare with running the MiRage 7.2 ROM? I'm going to be giving my old Nook Color to my mother and want to put something on it that will run decent.
[Nook Color General] jttraverse:
I hadn't used my Nook in a while and was thinking of putting it on Ebay, so I decided to update CM and see how it ran, or go back to stock. I decided to stick to CM10.x hoping the Netflix fixes might work, so this isn't CM11...but for the life of me, as much as I respect CM in all it's glory, it just seemed to be nowhere near as snappy/responsive as I have liked. Not sure why, maybe the newer versions are too much for the older Nook Color hardware or something. I had a heck of a time even using the browser as the screen touch response just wasn't what I expected.

Prior to restoring to stock, I came across this post and the OP's experience with his Nook using MiRage 7.2. I installed it this afternoon and I'm really pleased so far. Everything seems as responsive as I'd expect it to be, and I did remove the phone stuff as he suggested. I prefer to download and sideload my .apk's, but everything seems to be running well; very nicely in fact. I did load the 1.5.2 version of Netflix, as was suggested for this MiRage CM version, but haven't had a chance to try it yet, so I can't report on that.

But for my part, I'm much happier with the MiRage version than the most recent CM version(s), and it makes it a nice day-to-day tablet.

...thanks..

Check out these two items regarding speeding up Android with new compiler flags.

http://www.xda-developers.com/android/potentially-speed-up-android-with-new-compiler-flags/

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2754997

Android started as an OS for mobile devices, then phablets. RAM on these devices were less than 1 GB.

Android for Nook Color is probably compiled with flags set to save space. Newer tablets have more ram so when compiling Android for them space is not an issue. Maybe the nookie dev team will look at the compiler flags and set the build for speed rather than space saving when the new partition scheme is put in place.

An old fart

Hi, I've been reading your hints and tips but I'm rather behind the 8 ball. Firstly I'm not of the technology age, My ship in the Navy was built in 1940. Secondly I have a colour Nook and I want it completely cleaned. I want nothing to do with any company trying to tell me what I can and can't do with something I've paid for. I certainly didn't sign any documents which gave them the right to go through my property.

Wnd of rant, sorry mate. I don't want to be able to return to B&R for any reason and all I want is my Nook (in name only) to let me read magazines, books etc, and watch .avi, mp4, and any other kind of movie available, plus watch YouTube, snoop around the Internet and listen to talking books (mp3s).

I guess I can already do a lot of that already but the rebel in me (what I have left of it) makes me want to stick B&N in the trash can.

As I said I read your answers but I'm afraid some of the terminology left me behind plus all the different options kinda confoozed me a bit. So can I get rid of B&N permanent like, can I use Google Chrome (it's what I'm using now) and can I do all this without having to put in and pull out SD cards? Oh yes, how are these programs installed or run. From th SD card, downloaded directly to the Nook (still by name only) or can I download to the PC and then use the USB hookup.?

I hope I haven't sent you into shock, too much., Regards Stu :p
[Nook Color General] doodaa1:
Ok, I started with the same notion here, end up with a functional tablet that would handle lightweight tasks - reading (Kindle or Nook app), gmail, Chrome, maybe Facebook (though I hate Messenger so maybe not). I'm a big fan of CyanogenMod and there was a lot of noise from Google with the introduction of KitKat about how it ran better on older devices with lesser hardware. I first flashed CM 10.1 and it was way too slow, after a few hiccups with trying to go backward and forward in the version tree I've finally got CM11 M9 installed (eMMC not SD card) and it works. ***But*** it's still not as responsive as I'd like. I've got a pretty good idea it's a Nook Color thing since it's plenty fast on my old ATT Samsung Galaxy S Captivate with equivalent hardware. (mostly). I started looking around for possible solutions and stumbled on this...

As the screen response is my primary complaint - Has anyone else tried this app before I plunk down the $5.00 to buy an app that has so few reviews?
[Nook Color General] JoshMcMadMac:
It has been a long time, but I never paid for the NSR app. It may be available free from the developer here on the forum, or another forum. Or, he stopped offering the free app. I can check and see if I have the apk for it if you need it.

Thanks for the reply but it would appear the free version is not currently available on the Play store unless he's listed it under another author name than the paid version.

The IR functionality has to be built into the framework, and LG hasn't released that yet.
