Nhl game center live works great.

To watch live i did have to wifi tether to my vzw droid x....but only for live games...,video works otherwise on wifi at home.

You can also use location spoofer to set your location to get around blackouts. To get location spoofer to work you must enable allow mock locations in debugging menu in nook color tools.

FlexT9 Speak-Trace-Write-Tap (previously Shapewriter) keyboard works well. Like other keyboards for NC, you just need to copy the apk to system/app and set the right permissions.
[Nook Color Themes and Apps] kbassil:
I installed this, setup my character, then when I click the misison to play (world 1, mission 1) if freezes on the loading screen.

Any ideas whats up?

Running 1.0.0 autonooter, slideIt, and have compatibilty mode CHECKED.
[Nook Color Themes and Apps] Invisman:
I have been using FlexT9 swype like keyboard for a while now and I must say it is not suited for tablets. For swyping you need to hold the tablet with one hand, which is not easy with the weight. Also your finger needs to travel a lot more to connect the letters, compared to 4" phones, and in the process and I lost the touch quite a few times which resulted in unwanted words.

So I switched to SwiftKey and the experience is much better. You can type with your thumbs while holding NC with both hands and the prediction system is quite good.

Phones - Swype like

Tablets - SwiftKey

zMooth

zMooth lets you use gestures to mimic your device's hardware keys (back, home and menu), you will be able to use very intuitive gestures to navigate your device.

zMooth is unobtrusive and uses minimum amount of screen space but very easy and intuitive to use. If you use for couple of days you won't even think about using the buttons.

After you install the app you will see a blue area at the bottom of the screen, swipe left on this area to go back, swipe right for menu, gesture a up-arrow(^) for home and gesture a lightning strike/thunderbolt to power off. Please check the screen shots and video for more info.

zMooth will also save your hardware keys from being prematurely degrading as you will be using them a lot less. It might also slightly increase your battery life as you won't be turning on button lights and triggering hardware button circuits.

Pretty cool app, I'm using it with CM7 Nightly37.
[Nook Color Themes and Apps] docfreed:
This app is great - I too am using CM7 Nightly37 and I just tried the lite version of ZMooth - are you using the lite or full version? What are the differences? Do you also use the status bar tweak? And, do you think this can replace Button Savior?
[Nook Color Themes and Apps] thangnh:
Home, menu and back actions work for me on CM7 RC4. Screen off does not work. Is it because of lite version?

Thanks.
[Nook Color Themes and Apps] degan367:
I'm using the light version too. You have to gesture a ^ symbol for it to go to the home screen with the light version. I also just moved my status bar back to the top and turn off my docking buttons. It's a neat little app.
[Nook Color Themes and Apps] degan367:
I still have button savior installed but I have never had to use it yet on CM7 since the tweaks already have the buttons on the status bar. With zmooth light, I never use any buttons anymore for back, menu of home screen. To get to the app, I just put a short cut on the desktop since i turned off the docking bar.
[Nook Color Themes and Apps] degan367:
I think with the full version, you may be able to do custom gestures. I'm not 100% sure since I have not bought it yet but I think that what the web site said.

Better Terminal Emulator Pro works. I'm updating it now to support "Menu" by long-pressing on the display, since the Menu button is hidden in full-screen mode. Also, use the Virtual DPAD for Control/Arrow keys, or you can set up one the volume buttons as the control key, although I prefer to leave those as ESC and Tab.

crusade of destiny works, but with no sound - the sound file are installed on the sd card.

this may be an example of nook's enhancements killing performance. the nook and droid use the same graphics chip but it runs a bit slower on the nook. or it could be that the app scales correctly and plays at full 1024 x 600 and has to work harder to push the pixels. it doesn't look blocky so it could be scaling right and just has to work hard to run at that res.

req gmote

Hey guys. Has anyone tried running gmote. This looks like it would be a great replacement for the keyboard and mouse for my HTPC. Really considering picking up a nook.
[Nook Color Themes and Apps] antoniouslj:
Just so everyone knows, Zeam launcher is a much better alternative to Launcher Pro for the NC. Mainly because it still allows the custom rows/columns on the homescreen, but it also gives you a fully customizable dock with no "locked" icons. Plus it's pretty fast and lightweight.

All of the "oid" emulators work really well too, not just Snesoid.
[Nook Color Themes and Apps] bighead21:
I have boxee running already, I'll try gmote tonight.
[Nook Color Themes and Apps] sepffuzzball:
I just tried it, Gmote works, but it's a full-screen app so there's no access to the back or menu buttons so it's not exactly perfect. Starting up things for my HTPC works well, but without the menu button you can't change to a different input style.
[Nook Color Themes and Apps] s30zgt:
Thanks guys =). Good to hear that it at least mostly works. Im sure we can find a fix or at least a workaround for it. I think i will be picking one up over the weekend.
[Nook Color Themes and Apps] graymulligan:
Guitar Hero 5 works. Actually plays and looks pretty good considering its stretching it over a much bigger screen.
[Nook Color Themes and Apps] califrag:
Just tried GMote and it works with the only issue being that if you start browsing your shared files the back button disappears and you can't go 'up' a level... haven't been able to try the remote mouse\keyboard but I don't think it was available until you enable it in menu which isnt available. Also when it goes into landscape mode it doesn't fill the screen.

[Nook Color Themes and Apps] dark79:
I was able to get Terminal Emulator (the one that's bundled with CM6) to work but it starts up fullscreen. I fixed it by pulling the preference file off my phone with fullscreen disabled and pushing it to the nookcolor to the appropriate location and rebooting.

Other things I've tried that work are:

Extended Controls (requires superuser)

Busybox Installer

Cache Cleaner (requires busybox and superuser)

Autokiller Memory Optimizer (requires superuser)

AutoStarts (requires superuser)

Couple things I've noticed after running these apps:

Extended Controls is interesting because I can add toggles that would normally take me to parts of Settings that nookcolor has hidden. For example, adding and using the 3g/2g toggle will take me to the wireless network setting where normally I'd be able to enable or disable 3g. The options there (like Network Operators) doesn't work, but it's still interesting.

AutoStarts shows me apps that run at bootup and includes interesting things like the standard android dialer app. AutoKiller's running processes tab confirmed that it was running. Not that this means anything though.

For a full solution we have to wait to install Android 2.2 (Froyo) in our NC, then we will be able to install Adobe Flash 10.1. With the current system (2.1) it's not possible.

Until 2.2 arrives you have a couple ways to enjoy some stuff:

-Skyfire browser. If you install this browser, flash videos are converted and you can watch them in a separate window.

-Youtube app. It works great and you have all youtube content with decent quality.
