When I opened MX player came request for update fm: current 1.11.6 to Latest: 1.57.4, should I update now or not now... next time will come same request... ? /storage/1C11-8B31/Music & /storage/1C11-8B31/Videos for the new SD card already created. The old SD card locations I removed... I used the instruction in P#144, all fine! :) but video File audio was not supported for AC3 :(... File is .mpg, Format: MPEG-PS (MPEG-2 Program Stream)...

About NewPipe I don't remember if I set up download directories??? Did I?

NewPipe-Settings-Download-Video download folder and then Audio download folder location set to SDcard Videos & Audio folders for each to be available for MX player straight to its folders :)

Now I'm awaiting my new SD32GBclass10 card... it will be again nightmare for me to change the card :( Mama mia... :(

Something else if you remember regarding SD card replacement and remaining improvement of NT and its apks? My brain is off :)

Thank you Bro!

I will look into MX Player later today, tomorrow at the latest. I thought we had that thing tamed :-(

Edit: you can try these. Uninstall MX Player Lite first and delete the codec zip. No promises. If this won't play AAC audio we'll have to go to a newer version.

mxplayer-1-8-6

MediaFire is a simple to use free service that lets you put all your photos, documents, music, and video in a single place so you can access them anywhere and share them everywhere.

mx_Neon_1.8.6

MediaFire is a simple to use free service that lets you put all your photos, documents, music, and video in a single place so you can access them anywhere and share them everywhere.

You can set up as before, somewhere back in this now very long thread!
[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] aykov77:
All done successfully & working with video & audio fine and request for update was eliminated.

MXplayer v.1.8.6 is older then the previous one used with video File where the audio was not supported for AC3

Before was "MX Player Pro (lite) v1.11.6" with "MX player custom codec zip Neon v.1.9.18.2" most probably that is the reason for not matching properly :) different versions :)

Do you think we are done & over with this NT, except swap of 1GB with 32GB newborn fresh flesh 10 baby as storage?

Where is the Happy End with this NT? somewhere closer? :)
[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] nmyshkin:
I'm done. I think the rest is for you to settle things, try out apps, etc. Somewhere along the way when you feel reasonably good about it, make another backup.

Of course if you run into problems, I'm around. I hope.
[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] aykov77:
Sounds good about Nooky Spooky is settled down for relax :) Tomorrow will play with SD card replacement again, hope for ever last :) ...

MX Player, KOreader, EbookDroid... something else regarding SD swap?

I'm totally with blown mind doing in parallel 5x SD cards in 2x N :) 1x Battery NSTG replaced, many cards... Mama Mia :)
[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] nmyshkin:
NewPipe?
[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] aykov77:
Hi, can you take a look please to attached P.1 with folder Android from the SD1GB storage card which I removed from NT to replace with SD32GBclass10... Inside this folder Android was having 2 subfolders >data and >obb with content inside in P.1...

Should I copy/paste this folder Android to the new SD32GB? or it will not work...

All other folders as Books, Music, Videos I copied... but this Android not sure if I copy/paste will be effective ??? :(

After you confirm will work with adjusting the settings of:

-MX Player

-KOreader

-EbookDroid

-NewPipe

Thanks!
[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] nmyshkin:
The contents of the Android folder can be copied over. It's only the name/number of the sdcard itself that causes a problem with apps that have been set to find files in a particular directory. Oh, does the file manager correctly bring up the new sdcard as "home"? That's another one to check.
[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] aykov77:
Thanks, I did copy/paste to the new SD32 as you said will not be a problem.

Please, could you check:

-File Manager P.1 & 2, I set the new SD as Home for File Manager if something else remaining ... ?

-------------------------------------

-MX Player - P#144 done!

-------------------------------------

-KOreader - P#169 problem :(

Inside the SD card I have Books folder with all books inside :) I tried to do Books fm the SD card as Home folder, but every time I close KOreader & open it again is not showing SD Books as Home Folder screen :( Once I start over again KOreader :( is not in Home Books Folder :( Something wrong I did? :( Photos as attachments here below. P.3-6

As Home is /storage/emulated/0 :(

---------------------------------

-EbookDroid - P#178

I cannot settle the Home screen with Books folder showing inside the subfolders as demonstrated in V.3 :( and P.7 & 8 :(

In P.9 showing same Android folder inside the Internal storage and another one in SD32 which was copy/paste from SD1GB...

In P.10 showing 3 different locations of EbookDroid, 2x inside the Internal Storage and 1x in SD card in Android/data folder :(

Same is with KOreader in so many locations ;(

----------------------------------

*** Something happened with NT... It was something like someone was working on it in remote access and NT collapsed... Please check V.1 & V.2... now I have no idea what I should do... :( After a while with the charger connected now is back to normal working conditions... :(

Battery? What could be? ***

----------------------------------

-NewPipe - P#187 set up download directories - done!

----------------------------------

:(
[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] nmyshkin:
I don't know what is going on there. But the settings files in storage/emulated/0/koreader are simple text files. The file you want is settings.reader.lua. You can edit that right on the device or copy it off and then return it when done. Somewhere in that file is a line for the Home directory. You'll see it.

First, in a listing of the device file tree, "sdcard" does not mean what you think. It means the sdcard where the internal storage is. So it's just storage/emulated/0. Second, it looks to me like your settings in EBookDroid might have gone wonky. Check to see if PDFs are one of the selected book types.

Edit: Also, try a rescan of the library (3-dot menu), then a swipe left to view the "Book" directory. Note you can also scan for covers with that menu. Not sure why there is a separate setting for that.

Um... That RED message in the upper left of the boot screen?

There's not enough power to boot the system. 22% is not enough. You need to charge. The one time you ended up in CWM, that's the internal recovery fail-safe which loads if the system can't. You need to charge. The tablet was designed to boot (if off) when a power cable is inserted. In the B&N OS there was a little message about not having enough charge to start, please wait 15 minutes, blah-blah-blah. There's nothing like that with the CM13 ROM. If you plug in the power cable and the tablet just sits there with a black screen, the battery is seriously drained. This has happened to me before since I do not use my NTs regularly. Then you just have to wait for sufficient charge to accumulate until the device boots.

And I thought we were done.
[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] aykov77:
Thank you, stright in the heart :) After amendment is going to the proper Home library folder

Right, pdf, epub and mobi are properly set, all others are off, but cannot locate what is wrong with the settings :(

I did, nothing better, still same :(

Me neither wondering "why there is a separate setting for that". I did scan for covers with that menu and is ok this scan and visualization.

What about to delete this folder Android from the SD32GB card, which I did copy/paste from the previous SD1GB? I didn't see this folder inside the new inserted SD32GB... why should be there when I placed inside on purpose? May be that is making all these troubles... How is in your 2x NT? Do you have Android folders in every SD card? :( No idea why NT didn't create this folder and why this folder was inside the previous SD1GB :( Crazy brainstorming :(

Thanks, I plugged for full strong charge, looks like that was the reason for this collapse with self-movement of the screen and activating some checks of the World Clock areas as multi clock city indications...

I really hope for this :)
[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] nmyshkin:
Well, if you go back to the post...um...#178? you could get a new copy of the initial backup settings file and put it where it belongs, then read it in and start again. But I don't see that as an issue with the SD card because that file is in /storage/emulated/0

There is generally an "Android" folder on every SD card and in every /storage/emulated/0. The system and/or user apps create this folder if it's not already there and some apps store information there (generally on internal storage, but there are exceptions). If you delete the folder most apps will just go ahead and replace their information. But there are important exceptions. Apps which store large amounts of user configuration data (Kodi is an example) in the Android/data folder will be seriously crippled if the folder is deleted.

I've done SD card swaps in the past and have simply copied everything from the "old" card to a folder on my PC and then transferred the files and folders to the new card. Never had any issues with the new card.

If you continue to have issues with a certain app, you might as well just uninstall it and install a fresh copy. That way the mystery is gone and and you get the result you want (hopefully) without wasting a lot of time.

For these CM ROMs you should definitely charge as you reach the high 30%s. Anything lower and you're running on fumes.
[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] aykov77:
I did it, all in details as per P#178, but nothing changed... I think I'm overloaded, and I follow your point of view that you don't see any issue, looks like I'm wrong having mistaken with wrong imagination remembering which turn out that I'm wrong. I went through all photos, comments... I didn't find at Home library screen to see the subfolders of "Books" not like KOreader, may be that was my wrong fake remembering... I need little break for a while after I complete with NT, no power for NSTG now :) I'm runing now out of brain capacity :)

Thanks for sharing your experience, valuable to follow. If Android folder was inside of the old SD1GB storage card, that means the system of the applications generated each one and as you said all is fine without suspicious doubt is my bright light to relax my mind and calm down with Thanks that you confirm all is in order without any doubt & issue. That's make me relaxed now... :) Thank you!

Right, but in my overloaded mind this is the last thing I want to do now :) After month at least when start using NT on daily base all will be adjusted easily, day by day will clean all not in use applications and will adjust whatever is good for simple & easy use. That was my idea, to recover my Nook and everything else to cover in my mobile smart phone...

Now come my doubt is time to replace and this NT battery, same as I did with NSTG... Only need to find the exact capacity of the original battery... The new one for NSTG is more powerful and durable than the original, which is good, but not sure about what is the original for NT... f you have photo from somewhere will be really great to find and order...

One question came to me about the difference between any good resolution tablet and this NT, what is the difference and what makes this NT so special for e-book reading? If I install all same apks to Samsung Galaxy Tab 3 Lite (SM-T113) 8GB, 7" for example, what will be the difference? Because NSTG is different and there is no opponent in the class except Kindle Amazon reader...

NSTG is e-book reader as Kindle, but NT is tablet like all others in this class...
[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] nmyshkin:
OK, you've got me a little curious. EBookDroid has a setting for a default scan directory. That is where it will look for books when you start the app or ask it to rescan. You set this in All Settings>Library and Files>Auto Scan directories

But I don't think the bookshelf display will show the contents of sub-folders. The file search, probably. Let me try something here....

I just tried something on my NT. I put a sub-folder in my "Books" folder. When I went back to the Bookshelf view, I did not see the book in the sub-folder. But then for some crazy reason I decided to swipe left on the screen. There was the sub-folder in its own bookshelf with the one book I had there!

So....if you like those Gothic bookshelves (...), it looks like each sub-folder will have its own bookshelf.

If you use the Library view instead (basically a folder/file browser), you see everything on one (long) screen. But no spider webs.

At least that's how it behaved for me. YKMV.

Edit: the other possibility is to have more than one scan directory. This is done by use of some punctuation between folders, I forget what but it shows this in the settings. Maybe that would put everything in one bookcase. I didn't try.

I'll see what I can find, but an old photo for a battery that is no longer available may not be much help.

Edit: see this thread: https://xdaforums.com/t/changed-the-battery-in-my-nook-tablet.2829771

No way to know what battery was installed but the result for the OP was good. Also a video for replacement.

I think that idea is from the old days and comparing to the available e-ink devices, all of which had a lower screen resolution compared to the NT. Modern tablets are almost a different creature, with much higher screen resolution, dual or quad core processors, etc. They can run rings about the NT at near light-speed. But you can't make them what they are not, unlike the NT.

As a piece of repurposed technology put to a specific use for which it is capable, I still think it's a pretty amazing device. I'd still use mine on a daily basis except that a few years ago the company with which I have my emergency cell phone account (for my car glove box--I don't own a smart phone) offered me a free Alcatel 3T8 tablet when I recharged my account for another year. So I ended up with a "nice" tablet running Android 8.1. It has bluetooth and screen casting, but otherwise my NT can do everything it does, albeit more slowly. In fact they are set up in exactly the same way. I have simple needs :)
[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] aykov77:
Will try now what you mentioned here...

BatteryShip.com - Online Catalog

These both are same 3200 mAh, but wanted to see what the capacity of the original battery is inside. If no option I will order this one, which cost is more than the money I could get for my NT :( but this is what it is... Looks like now is time to replace the battery and no cheaper option :(

In P.1 from https://xdaforums.com/t/changed-the-battery-in-my-nook-tablet.2829771/ is the problem with the battery & CM roms causing this 23% battery crazy NT acting way before the crashed shut down.

Do you know abt NT Hidden Settings v.2.3.7 app application settings/battery use? described in the link post and screened on the photo P.1?

P.2 is about Battery replacement story

That exactly is what I thought about my model NT, still incomparable :) and lower screen resolution 7" tablets cannot be compared with NT and deffinitely are not the proper devices for reading. What about the blue light emission which is a matter that is affecting the eyes and then making the fall asleep process little difficult? If you know about... many glasses/spectacles these days having anti-glaring protections and blue light filters.

Same, simple needs, but everything else that I have in my smart mobile phone is everything that I almost never use :) and cost so much... That was the reason to step in with waking up my NookySpooky the best of all e-readers :)
[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] nmyshkin:
Well the original battery was 4000 mAh, but there don't seem to be any new ones like that, even as far back as 2014, so it's either the 3200 mAh or nothing. Easy choice.

Edit: you probably did this already, but if you search for "4000 mAh 3.7 v tablet battery" you find a slew of them, including one from Ali Express for a little over $6US! The problem, of course, is the physical size and connector, although you could just cut the old connector off and use it for the new battery. If you're really worried about the mAh rating you might want to compare some dimensions.

That's why I read almost exclusively on my NSTG. The only things I read on my tablet are the three magazines I subscribe to through Libby--and never in the evening. I have never slept very well and the older I get the worse the problem becomes so I'm not going to do something that might aggravate it. Besides, the NSTG is a comfortable carry if I'm off somewhere I will have to wait.
[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] nmyshkin:
I did not but I doubt it would work with CM13. It's probably for the stock (rooted) ROM.

I have some good news about KOreader. Someone at the Mobilread forum has come up with a patch to make KOreader follow the system screen orientation and it works like a charm on the NT!! Woo-hoo! That means you can uninstall the Rotation Control app.

To make the patch, download the zip file below and extract the file 1-force-soft-rot.lua. On the NT go to /storage/emulated/0/koreader and create the folder "patches". Place the file in this folder. It's that simple. The next time you open the app it will be in whatever the current system screen orientation is and will change with it correctly (assuming you have uninstalled the Rotation Control app, of course--or at least turned off the custom setting for KOreader).
[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] aykov77:
Same I checked and onfirm in order, but not showing sub folders... P.1

Right, when I swipe left or right or touch the "Books" shelf title is dropping down the same menu which is when sliding :)

Right, at least is option for settling my mind to know how to slide between folders :) That is good anyway it works in that way -> P.2

Exactly ->P.3 :) Spider webs are spooky great :) giving me a reason to dust off a book for reading :) having smell of scary old wooden library in darkness below the roof :) if the roof is not on fire :)

I tried out in P.1, separating with ":" and nothing, but same is good :) nothing else I can do more :(

I adjusted my mind settings to accept all possibilities of eBookDroid :) Mine Settings working now properly :)

Hug!
[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] aykov77:
Definitely it is a harsh situation with the single available battery of 3200 mAh, whih is 20% downgrade and when you place when battery is at 28-30% then we have half battery as capacity of the original one of 4000 mAh :( Same as a new one with 2000 mAh :(

Apart of this for NSTG the original was 1700 mAh, and the new one I replaced with is 2150 mAh, that is 25% more power in full, no effect of phantom touches starting to happen at higher than 25% reaching almost 35% with NT :(

It would be great to find 5000mAh battery for NT with 25% over the original one, same as the new one for NSTG :)

The forum discussion was in 2014, 9-10Y ago... These days should be some better option if I can discover what could be as compatible one by dimensions, power and voltage... But that will be difficult and I will not surrender ;)

What abt the mentioned apk for battery % alarming, do you know it and have you placed such one in service?

Exactly what I was thinking about to do homemade brand new one for long life battery with original connector...

What do you know about reset of the battery indicator, to be in real % of battery discharge and not shutting in phantom mode at 23%, that was mentioned in the post where I did a print screen for you, have you ever tried out something like such reset?

Same problem I have with difficulties with the falling asleep... and now you turned out my direction of thinking... That NT will prove that is not reliable and good for use in the hours of darkness in the bed and eyes will become very fast tired... I thought that as an e-book reader and one of the best Nook should eliminated the blue light and eye blurring effect with some king of hardware and software preventing the eyes, tiredness of the mind and creating pleasure for reading in darkness before falling asleep... That was my point of question regarding the difference between NT and other tablets in same 7" screen, apart of the dense resolution...

Or need to look for NT blue light screen protector and filter screen protector.... whatever is available will revert if I find some good and worthy one...

Let's cross my fingers!

Here it is for abt 5-6 US$:

If I do uninstall of the Rotation Control app than I will loose the Lock Screen wallpaper in Portrait P.1 & 2 and will be back to Landscape orientation :(

Good to follow, but yr post was without attachment, will do after updating.

And now will be the time to return back to the NT little brother NSTG fm tmrw :) Where I think my NT is done... till the time for proper battery replacement but should be nothing related to the apks and software installation.

NT Happy End is coming soon :)
[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] nmyshkin:
Well you can leave that on but turn off the KOreader force setting.

Omigosh...did I really do that again?! It's off to the glue factory for me.... My PC is shut down for the night but I'll get that posted first thing tomorrow.

Regarding the battery issue, I got some measurements and found a 4000 mAh battery that was slightly smaller in length and width but slightly larger in thickness. That's probably a deal-breaker.

FWIW, my experience with battery stats recalibration and such has not been positive. I don't think most of them do much. We had a Nook HD running CM13 which would suddenly drop from 60% to 20% and then shut down. Tried all kinds of stuff, read even more. Nothing helped--except getting another used tablet. So it was probably either the battery or some issue with hardware. Supposedly some versions of CWM have an option to clear battery stats. I don't know if that's true for yours. You'd have to boot into internal (emmc) recovery and look through the menus. But I doubt it would do anything.

And how many things can you say that about?!
