Reviews look fake to me. I don't own it though and can't say. I'm also interested in a tempered glass screen protector in the under 20 dollar range
[Google Pixel 2 XL Accessories] jonstrong:
These reviews all appear to be bogus. I wouldn't waste any money on this.

You can use the site "Fakespot" to get a sense of the credibility of the reviews on sites like Amazon. There are SO many armies of fake reviewers now, hyping products and give phony positive reviews. Anyway -- Fakespot gives the reviews of this product an "F" -

[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam General] ryanc2:
I literally have to be sitting next to my router for my 8525 to be able to see and connect to my home network. If I go down the hall, it shows as unavailable (even though I can see everyone of my neighbors). No dead spots anywhere in the house with either of our two laptops, but I get no range with my 8525. Work is the same and we have strong coverage throughout our campus. Set to 'Best Performance'. Any ideas?

On a second note, how can you keep from having networks you don't want showing up in the list of connections? I can 'remove settings', but they just re-appear.

Thanks in advance...

Running 4.31 Schap's ROM.
[Nook Touch General] jptiger:
I've been thinking about how all these new apps are out now that would work great on my old NST if only it ran a more recent version of Android. I saw on the old l337 thread that the NST is confirmed to be able to run more adavanced versions, but that we'd have to pull the files from a phone or other, much more powerful device, rendering the resulting ROM pretty much unusable.

Until, that is, the Nook Glowlight Plus and 3 came along. The NG+ and NG3 run Android 4.4.2. 4.4 Android could mean being able to run apps like Overdrive and Libby, without workarounds. And that would be pretty sweet.

Now these are two different devices. I'm having a hard time finding data on the difference between the guts beyond the fact that the newer models have a higher DPI screen. I'd guess they have similar amount of processing speed to preserve battery life, though maybe more RAM.

I did a little googling, and I found this CM11 Mod but it looks like it it fizzled out after getting pretty close.

Do we think this can be done?
[Nook Touch General] jptiger:
Was wondering about this the other day. There are an awful lot of NSTs floating around ebay for US$15 now. It would be fun to be able to breathe a little life into them, if only to use them for displays of calendars, to-do lists, or anything else you can do with more modern android apps
[Nook Touch General] Renate:
The NST, NSTG and the first Glowlight used TI OMAP3621 processors.

The Glow2, 3, 4 use Freescale (now NXP) iMX6SL processors.

That's quite a difference.

I don't think that anything would be compatible.
[Nook Touch General] nmyshkin:
Oh, I'm going to promise not to look at ebay!!! Three devices are enough, even at that price. But it's very tempting. Too bad the NSTGs are rare as hens teeth and always high priced. Then there is a screen artifact issue. The one I finally got has three, but it's not too bad, I guess.

Other than watching movies or live TV (both of which, admittedly, are actually possible with the NST if you can stand it), it seems to me these devices are still wonderfully versatile. With a minimal installation of GApps you can have all the calendar displays you want, to-do-lists, etc. For some of these applications, there are still apps that work fine. For other uses (you dream it up) it's amazing what can be done with Tasker to create an app that looks like "the real thing". And while the learning curve for Tasker is a little steep, baby steps and lots of online help and examples are available.

The one clear drawback is

almost

anything that requires a login. The fact that Overdrive has not yet been hacked to address this issue is probably due to a lack of interest from a person with the proper expertise (not me). But really, selecting a library book on Opera Mobile from your local library? I'd sooner slit my wrists. Books can still be downloaded to a PC and then transferred to the NST via Adobe's software (or you can get around the whole DRM issue if you wish). And, you can get mobi format books from most libraries now and they will still magically appear in your Kindle app

That said, having flashed a Nook Tablet with CM 11 (KitKat), I can attest that there are still issues with that less-old Android version. For example, you can't view XDA properly in any browser. You have to go back to an earlier skin which has tiny print and is most annoying. In fact you can't get to some sites at all with any browser. And the OS returns SSL errors for some operations with other apps. So KitKat is no panacea. Even so, I like my Nook Tablet running CM 11. It's an 8 GB version and so has limited RAM and storage. Therefore I have scaled down my usual apps to some essentials and things it is really good at. In fact, it has fewer apps on it than my NST!

Every one of those NSTs on ebay is a treasure. But I'm

not

going to look!!!!
[Nook Touch General] Renate:
I meant as fas as kernel, various hardware libraries.
[Nook Touch General] jptiger:
Thanks for the thorough response! I didn't realize you could do so much! I was envisioning having three mounted on walls in various places in my apartment, one with an interactive Google calendar, one with my to-do list from Any.do, and one with a local transit app that shows if there are delays on specific trains etc. (though I guess that one might wait until we're all using public transit again...) I've never used Tasker before, do you have any suggestions of resources or guides on getting it to replicate any functionality like this on an NST?

Good luck! Save your money and vicariously help me do stuff with them? :D
[Nook Touch General] nmyshkin:
There is only one version of Tasker that will run on the NST/G (check your PM). It is designed to run in the background and execute tasks from shortcuts on the home screen or automatically start a series of tasks based on some trigger (time of day, opening a specific app, connection to WiFi, etc.). I originally used it to automatically start WiFi for apps that needed it. This is definitely a "baby step" idea. I don't use Tasker as a background service any longer. There is a companion app called AppFactory which takes your Tasker routines and converts them into stand-alone apps that anyone can run (with the caveat that either GApps must be installed or else two small Maps library files would need to be copied onto the device--actually this is a dependency for Tasker itself also). You can see many examples of "apps" I have created in this fashion in the last section of this forum. You design your own GUI to fit the NST/G screen. Tasks can vary from a simple activity call to website data scraping and massaging (definitely advanced) and more.

AppFactory will not run on the NST/G. It requires Android 2.2. I have a KitKat device which will run both the ancient version of Tasker and also AppFactory, so after I finish designing and testing the routines on the NST I move all the files over to the KitKat device and compile with AppFactory. The resulting app can be installed on the NST and behaves just like any other app (and does not require the presence of Tasker to run).

A lot of patience is required to get things right, especially if you want a full-screen GUI since Tasker seems to hate screen edges and when you edit a screen containing a near-full-screen image it tends to resize it a little smaller, throwing off other elements. Fixing this requires hand-editing the coordinates in the xml files which describe the scene elements. Also, because the file structure on the NST is not the same as on a KitKat device, references to images have to be edited by hand before (or after) moving files to the second device to compile. For example, "/media/" might need to be changed to "/storage/external_SD/Pictures/" or similar. Also, the touch screen on the NST is not always as responsive as we might like.

Finally, there is one one last fly in the ointment, so to speak. Tasker will not install on FW 1.2.2 for some reason unless it is resigned. When it is resigned, it ceases to interact properly with plugin apps (things like RotationLocker, or Minimalistic Text, as examples). The compiled apps will work properly, but testing on the NST is problematic if you are referencing plugins. On FW 1.2.1 everything works properly. Since I have three devices (gulp) I kept one on FW 1.2.1 to help me with this issue.

There is a Tasker Wiki with many examples, but just Googling will yield all kinds of things. There is a guy (Hollywood Frodo) who created all kinds of videos from the basic to the exotic and I found some of those very helpful. Finally, there is a Tasker Google group where--to judge by my personal experience--no question is too stupid!
[One (M9) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] keithspg:
I have been using the Viper roms since right after I got this phone. It is/was an ATT branded phone, but is now S-off and I am running a 4.30.617.12. I am no longer running VIper as I cannot get a 6.x viper rom to have decent battery life. I need a couple mods, though, and am unsure how to do them. The primary one is the auto hide of the stock navbar. There are instructions all over the web about editing a editing a setting:

settings put global policy_control immersive.full=*

but this is not nearly as good as teh options for the stock navbar in the viper roms. Is there an APK or something that could help? Also with the settings mod, it does nothing about the 'car mode' nav bar which is HUGE!!!!! and takes up over 15% of the screen. I can get used to hiding and unhiding the normal mode nav bar, but really want to be able to auto hide the car mode one. This was all handled nicely in the viper rom 'auto hide stock navbar' option.

The other is the file naming convention of the camera files. "Image0001.jpg' makes no sense to me at all. I prefer a date prepend in YYYYMMDD format if possible.

Any help finding solutions to one or both of these would be greatly appreciated.
[One (M9) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] shivadow:
As far as i know to the best you'll get for hiding the nav bar is to have a button on it to hide it manually.

Settings/personalise/navigation bar options/ check the box for "hide navigation bar".

To change the naming of the photos will require a 3rd party app. You cannot change the naming scheme otherwise, nor reset the image count without a factory reset.

Hardly a solution but I hope this helped.
[ONE Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Awesomeness_1307:
So, I recently got my hands on a OnePlus One as my daily driver (super broke, I know right?), and I've installed the TugaPower Nougat ROM, and currently have an Airtel SIM.. The SIM automatically loaded up the APN settings but when I turned on mobile data, there was this cross symbol beside the signal bars..

Then I checked my dad's phone (Micromax Yu Yureka) which also has an Airtel sim, so, I opened up the APN settings in there, saw which settings that phone was using and copied it down on mine.. Now, here are a few problems I've been experiencing..

The signal most often drops to 2G, but when I go to settings, and go to preferred network type, and then select 2G and then LTE again, it works fine again..

Sometimes it shows LTE, but the speed is absolutely terrible.. It shows LTE up top, but the download speed is, like, 30-40 kbps.. Even right now when I'm downloading the update to XDA Labs, the speed is around 10 kbps!!!!

Please help as this problem is driving me crazy.. Screenshots are attached of the following things:

1) The little cross beside the signal bars..

2) The custom APN setting I had to make, titled 'Airtel Internet'.. The default selected one was 'Airtel Live'

3) Horrible download speed of the XDA Labs update while being on LTE

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Questions & Answers] Swishmak3r:
All,

I have a Samsung Galaxy Note 8 and it seems very buggy at times and I want to know if other users are experiencing these issues and what can be done about it. I have a AT&T Note 8 and when I first got the phone in Dec 2017, it was awesome. However, it does some things that have truly gotten extremely annoying now.

For example, when I open Youtube, and I am playing a video, at random times during the video, the screen will black out and then come back on. It only happens for less than a second but enough for it to be noticeable. I noticed it with Netflix on the phone as well.

The most annoying thing that happens across a few apps such as youtube, instagram, Facebook, Messenger, even web pages is I'll be scrolling down on any of those apps and without even touching anything, the app will scroll back up to the top almost instantaneously and randomly. It will do this repeatedly and is extremely annoying.

I just traded my Nexus 6P that I had for 2 years and loved for this phone. Honestly, the only reason I traded it was because of the stupid battery problems, but that phone gave me no other problems for 2 years. I avoided Samsung like the plague because I had the S3 and the S4 and after two years, they were so laggy, it was almost unbearable. However, I did almost 3 months of research with the Note 8 and the P2XL and at the time, because of all the issues with the P2XL and the Note 8 getting rave reviews, I went with the Note 8. However, I don't want to regret my decision for a phone I paid almost $1000 for and for that price, I expect ZERO issues. Any assistance anybody can offer is greatly appreciated.

Thanks so much,

Swish

Sorry to hear you're having all those problems. I am also on AT&T but I haven't had any issues with mine, I've had mine since December.

[OnePlus 5T  Questions & Answers] Paxis:
So the battery drain is pretty significant since I have updated to Oreo. Should I roll back to an older version of OOS? If so, how? I'm not well versed in Android.
[OnePlus 5T  Questions & Answers] Nobodyslight:
Mine was too, and everyone on the 1+ forums said to factory reset (which is a HUUUGGGEEE pain in the butt); however the OnePlus switch app was recently updated with a backup and restore feature. I made a backup and put in on my PC, then I reset and did initial setup, and moved it back and installed OnePlus switch and restored, and my battery life is definitely better. I don't know if was and app or anything like that, but they do say that with any major updates you should factory reset. Unfortunately for me, there isn't a backup that exists that's saves me from having to reset and resetup my Android Wear watches?

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S7 Questions & Answers] kartng:
Wish I could do more than discourage you here, but it seems that at least for some S7s, there is just no way to marry root to acceptable battery life. I fought the battle you are trying to win here for months before I gave up (I bought Amplify, used every battery optimization tool/strategy I could find, etc.). Finally, I did something kind of janky to be able to have my phone set up close to the way I liked and simultaneously get through a whole day of use. What I did was to:

1. Backup apps from my rooted install.

2. ODIN to stock Nougat, then install this ROM.

3. Root the ROM via ENG Bootloader.

4. Restore app backups, set up system in my preferred state.

5. Dirty flash stock bootloader and system image via Flashfire, AND the ROM linked above (in that order!).

This resulted in an unrooted system with the apps I cared about restored to the state I wanted them in, but without root. It's less than ideal - the adblocking included with the ROM I linked is out of date and was never great, but to update it, I'd have to do the whole dance above again. I've just lived with the phone in this state for ~8 months now.

I hope you find something I didn't and end up getting this to work - I was only getting ~8 hours of battery on rooted Nougat, and I had to give up as a result.

[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Hozelock:
A friend of mine asked me if I could help her to get her old GT-N7105 working again. She said she had some person trying to do something to it (I think that person tried to unlock it, but I am not sure) but something went fubar and the phone didn't recognise the SIM-cards anymore. I said I could take a look at it, however rooting with Androids is a new territory for me.

I first of all tried with my own SIM-card, nothing happened. Then I got a brand new SIM card and tried with that, nothing happens there either.

I downloaded Samsung Kies but the phone don't want to show up there (I have the USB-drivers installed) but it does show up on my PC. I have tried different USB-ports to see if Samsung Kies will work, but no. If I run Samsung Smart Switch the phone shows up in that program, but I can't do anything with it (not even the "Emergency firware restore").

If I check the info on the phone I can see that the IMEI and baseband says "Unknown" and I have these latest days searched around here on XDA and other places on what to do but none of the threads I've found has worked for me. I tried a factory reset in the beginning, that didn't do a thing so I downloaded Odin and flashed in the latest firmware I could find from Sammobile but that didn't help either.

Is it possible to get this phone working again, and if so how? I downloaded a Samsung Phone Info app and got some information from it, but if there's more information needed then say so and I'll do my best to find it.

Thanks in advance for all your help.
