[Nook Color General] Ravynmagi:
I think I might be returning my Nook Color (will give it a week though). It's just so slow, even rooted. And the screen looks great, but feels tacky and touch isn't very responsive.
[Nook Color General] norkoastal:
Have you tried the items below yet?

Screen calibrated using NCDevs instructions?

Set CPU installed and changed to On Demand?

Dolphin HD or Opera browser installed/used vs stock browser?

Different Launcher(s) and setting used?

Hopefully these three things pep things up till 2.2 is running at a good clip.
[Nook Color General] Ravynmagi:
Haven't tried the calibration yet because I still haven't gotten ADB to work with the Nook (still working on that, USB mode goes crazy on the Nook when I plug it into the computer with ADB installed).

SetCPU is going to be my last resort, so haven't tried it yet. I haven't bought that app yet and am concerned what it would do to stability (this thing doesn't seem all that stable as it is).

I'm using Dolphin HD, it's an improvement over the stock browers no doubt. But it's still much slower on the Nook Color than my Galaxy S phone. I loaded AdBlocker addon (doesn't really seem to block much though), also have Java script disabled now and it's helping more. But still below satisfactory performance.

I'm using Zeam as my launcher. Had also tried LauncherPro and ADW. Launcher's performance seems acceptable.
[Nook Color General] wendellc:
For $250, the Nook Color an excellent device. I have no problems with mine and its been rooted for a week. I bring it with me wherever I go. Overall I am satisfied with the speed of this thing, you have to remember this is an NC e-reader that when rooted is capable of doing a little more. I was at Mall with my family yesterday and got a few ohhs and ahhs from people.

" Is that the a new IPAD", I say "hell nooo!". People are surprised that I payed only $250 for this thing.

This thing should hold me through 2011, after that I will probably be looking to replace it if the new tabs are a big leap forward.
[Nook Color General] Canadoc:
You are right I will leave this thread I am not in the mood to have a battle of wits with someone who comes unarmed.

Reread all my posts again as you seem to think I am just an ipad owner. You also assume and imply alot of things, but I guess given how you respond it is not surprising. I have provided honest documented information for people to know the pros and cons of each current tablet out.

And while I think the ipad is a great product that works phenomenally and has an app base beyond comparison and for those who want to dig deeper, a great jailbreak community, I actually ended up on this forum and others on xda because I wanted to get an android tablet and was weighing the pros and cons myself. I have since bought one tablet that was 10 inch and decided to go smaller. I returned and am receiving another one that is 7 inches in size.

You just get your panties in a bunch that someone who doesn't have a vested interest in the product might offer alternatives from which a prospective buyer might consider.

MAybe you should rename the thread from should I buy a nook color to, This is the nook color forum and if you don't have anything but praise for it get the F$@# out!
[Nook Color General] Canadoc:
And FYI a 16gb ipad can be had new for 399$. It won't need to be hacked to work properly and is the best supported and most well made of the tablets out in spite of the apple haters out there, it has no rival .....yet.
[Nook Color General] Canadoc:
I would definitely choose the nook over any 7 inch tablet with a resistive screen ( the Huawei or Augen or others). It has a great screen a better processor than those and is reasonably priced. YOu will haveto put in some time to get it working like a true android tablet out of the box.
[Nook Color General] Canadoc:
May I ask what you intend to use the nook for?
[Nook Color General] Divine_Madcat:
All told, it took around 15-20 minutes to be a "true" android tablet (rooted basic aapps downloaded).
[Nook Color General] RoboRay:
I do find it amusing that the one who complains about personal attacks and "attitude" is the one who flings all of the insults. :rolleyes:
[Nook Color General] erieboatergal:
I am the average Joe user, and I came here to learn more about my nook color. I still don't understand 3/4 of what you guys are talking about, but I appreciate the effort you put in. I have been searching forums for any answers I can find. I would love to be able to root my device and get all the cool features you guys are talking about, but I am just not comfortable doing that unless I have step by step instructions that are easy to follow. After reading the forums I will gain confidence, and maybe one day attempt to get all of the cool features you guys have.

Good day
[Nook Color General] 911jason:
Overall this thread was very informative and helpful, until the last 20 or so pissing match posts, that is.

I'm going to go pick up a Nook Color today, is there anything I should check out right away (before I leave the store) to ensure I don't have one of the buggy units? Is there anything obvious that I can see about the USB plug to verify it's not one of the bad ones? Someone also mentioned BN coupons that could get the price down to around $200... any links if those are still valid?
[Nook Color General] spikey911:
There are no coupons that will work for the Nook...

All the coupons have exceptions and the Nook is one of them...

Check your pixels real good, and if you can see if you can get a serial number starting in 2005....The ones I had that started with 2004 all had problems..
[Nook Color General] 911jason:
Cool.. thanks for the info.
[Nook Color General] Ophbalance:
My device begins with 2004, and so far the only annoyance I have with it is the stubborn @#$@#%$@#$@#$ USB plug. Otherwise, the screen and unit itself are fantastic.

Good to see you here! As always, I'm sure you're providing a great, reliable ROM, and providing an awesome AOSP-based experience.

Anyone having any luck using gingerbread keyboard with this? I get fc when I try using it, but it works with cyanmod. Any idea's?
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] kingjavi:
Hey enom, just wanted to say awesome ROM. Just wanted to give props and had one question/idea. In a virtuos-vision sense ROM I recently flashed, I loved the internet pass-through feature. Is this something obtainable on your ROM, or can this only be achieved on a sense ROM? :confused: Keep up th great work! My first donations will definitely be coming your way. :)

Oh, one last thing. From your list of update considerations, I noticed nothing mentioned about not turning off completely but staying in recovery while charging. ??
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] pendo:
Thanks!, and no not such a big problem anymore, but I know what to expect ;) :p

Yes and no. Yes this mod can work on cm, I get a lot of downloads for cm roms on the N1.

But that exact file won't work on cm, as the mod would need to be built with the cm framework. I'm pretty busy with other work right now, but if you're really wanting to do something for a cm build, pm me and I might be able to help a bit. :)
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] olearyp:
That's nothing to do with the ROM, but a limitation of the phone. The stock recovery does this as well, but shows a special charging screen when in this state that's not implemented by Clockwork. Koush explains here.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] Vandam500:
Enom is there any way I can manually enable the shutter sound when taking pictures? Thanks.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] BBOOZE:
I just downloaded this ROM and am noticing the same issue. I'm in a spot where I have HSPA probably 75% of the time but now I'm mostly on 3G and it switches between the two like crazy.

Like the ROM so far...first one I've ever loaded!
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] Vandam500:
It's normal. Data switches to HSPA+ (H in status bar) when in use. When not then it will stay at 3G until more power is needed.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] kingjavi:
I have tried and it works perfectly fine. Good job..thanks
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] kingjavi:
Thanks for the help. Understood perfectly.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] Anartic:
I have a weird problem with my phone screen not coming back on after a phone call. I had this same problem with a Flashlight LED app but a reinstallation fixed that. I'm not sure how I would fix this phone call problem without having to wipe and reflash the rom, which isn't a choice for me.

Edit: Sorry, I really didn't do any searching through this thread if this was already answered, I don't have much time to do it right now.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] Stryder5:
Why is that not a choice? You can just take a nandroid backup, wipe and see if that does. If not, you can just restore the backup.

You can also use Titanium Backup. If the wipe works, use Titanium to restore your data.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] swhtownboy:
nice rom...that's the only issue I have, never happened when I was on stock rom *shrugs*
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] infamousjax:
It's not an issue -- it's working properly. The stock ROM signal indicator is wrong.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] BBOOZE:
I noticed when I was out in the clear open that it would kick into HSPA+ when I went to use the internet but when I'm in buildings where I had normally gotten HSPA+ no problem with the stock ROM, it now goes into the convulsions of switching between H, 3G, and Edge. It's a noticeable issue - at least for me.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] Stryder5:
To clarify, the stock indicator doesn't diffrentiate between HSPA+ or 3G. Custom ROMs diffrentiate this. This is why you always see the "H" icon in your status bar on stock ROM and see 3G often in custom ROMs. Custom ROMs tell you which one you're actually on and is more accurate. There's nothing wrong with it, you just weren't aware you were using 3G in stock ROM.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] Darkreignn:
Thanks Enom! On my N1 your rom is the one I used from many that I flashed. Thank you very much. I have the G2 and 4G atm in my house. I have to return one to tmobile. You made my decision very easy thanks. Will be donating soon. Your work is very much appreciated.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] swhtownboy:
ahhh I see,that makes sense
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] gaalaagaa:
So this is a htc vision stock rom but better?
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] BBOOZE:
Sorry for the very noob question but I just want to clear something up about overclocking.

I see a number of kernals out there to overclock the G2 to 1.42 and above. Yet I see in Eno's ROM within Spare Parts that you can set the maximum CPU speed to a number of levels higher than the standard 800.

So my questions are:

- If we have Eno's ROM, does that negate the need to download other kernals to overclock the G2?

- Is it necessary to have SetCPU as well? I've seen some noting some conflicts between Spare Parts CPU settings and SetCPU and how that might affect battery life.

Thanks for the ROM. After installing the ROM yesterday my battery drained like crazy but I let it go all the way down, wiped the battery stats, charged it to 100%, wiped the stats again, and have been having awesome battery performance so far today. I've totally cleaned up my phone of junk that had been on there from the stock version and it's nice and snappy. Thanks for the effort behind this.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] KronicAnarchy:
Awesome work Enom, this is the best ROM out there imop. Smooth, looks good with the Nextheme, all the bells and whistles a person could want. Thanks man for doing such great work.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] jdm502:
yeah i just uninstalled set cpu. and i dont use any other kernel other than the one that came with this rom. i am getting steady 50's on the linpack score, and i'm scoring very high in quadrant.

i have a question though,

what theme(s) can i use with this ROM?

it's driving me crazy, i've been looking everywhere for themes compatible to this, but all seem to only say CM and others. HELP!!
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] g1junky:
themes will start to become available once enom releases the theme template just be patient :)
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] jdm502:
cool, thanks. i'm still kind of new to this modding stuff. according to your signature, there are other things to be done to my G2 i did not even know about. thanks!! lol:D
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] g1junky:
just look through the forum and you'll learn some things
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] gaalaagaa:
So battery life is something only I am having problems with?
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] recasper:
In looking through the thread this ROM is looking great. As far as look and smoothness, its definitely top of the list in some early runs. I did run into something that I haven't seen brought up and I am afraid its just me.

Has anyone else had issues with the home button not registering. It will vibrate but no action will carry out. I looked into the preferences and all setting are proper (enabled home button to home screen, etc)... but still nothing happens but a vibration.

Hopefully its not just me. :^<
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] Stryder5:
Home button works fine for me.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] g1junky:
works fine for me too
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] amack10:
has anyone tried metamorph on this rom. i cant for the life of me get it to work on cyan
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] thatruth132:
No me to
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] recasper:
So weird, It will not carry out any command other than vibrating. Could it be something I did when I flashed?

I carried out the upgrade the same I have done many times before. Wipe Wipe Wipe, Flash Rom, Flash Gaaps, reboot. But this is the first time I have had a button stop working.

Hmm, I will try again tonight and use the non-skinned version and see if it makes a difference.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] Stryder5:
I think that's the problem right there. What gapps file did you flash? I thought it was already included in the ROM?
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] g1junky:
You Dont Have to Flash Gapps for this rom lol
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] Vandam500:
Just wipe, flash the rom and reboot.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] creepinm3:
Home button works great. I have been using this rom since my birthday (dec 3rd) and i must say its loads better than cyanogen right now in terms of looks, response, and smoothness. Battery life is also better on this rom. Running this with the gingerbread launcher and its a snap. Just wish the gingerbread keyboard would work
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] Stryder5:
Been using the ROM for a solid week now. It seems overall pretty stable.

Battery life does get me through the day but hasn't been consistent, though I have no accurate measure of this since my usage isn't consistent either.

However, I did notice a weird bug with the camera. After taking a picture, the camera app kinda freezes a bit (it looks like it's focused, meaning the green bars around the screen come up) and I can't review the pic I just took (lags if I try to review the pic). If HTC Camera comes out, I hope it's smoother than the stock camera app.

And of course wifi calling still is not 100% but Enomther has already addressed this and is working on it.

Other than that, the ROM is great! It's the best ROM i've tried for the G2 in my opinion. Very stable for day to day usage. Decent battery life. Very snappy and smooth.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] jyc124:
Great ROM! but do have a question though.

This is a great rom, very stable and so many tweaks allowed. I'm really enjoying this.

I was able to get wifi tether to work with a 3rd party app, wireless tether, so probably an alternative for those who need it?

was anyone able to see their phone #'s under phone status? It used to show up, and if it didn't i think CM rom allowed for typing it in under call settings. I use TikL so I'm just wondering if anyone else was able to get a fix on this.

Thanks again for the help and awesome ROM, 5 stars!
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] TL24:

Hey good evening enom,

Tried to flash from phone today on a freshly rooted vision off recovery. wiped everything and after flashing it got stuck on boot loop. never booted first time..

CM6 on the other hand worked right away, just reporting to let you know sorry no logs.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] Stryder5:
Did you check MD5 sum before flashing? No one else seems to be indicating any problems with flashing this rom.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] rUsTyRuSs:
I have this issue as well. I changed sim cards and had tmo push my number to my sim. It still shows as unknown. My # shows with virtuous. With cm I have to re add after reboot. I can't readd with this rom. Any insight is much appreciated. Thanks in advance,

Russ
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] mykeldrip:
patience i have learned from following enom on the nexus! he makes sure everything is stable and working before a release!
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] jyc124:
I know you can use an iphone or maybe an unlocked blackberry to input your own number. I don't have access to those so I can't confirm. I also found that maybe typing in #686# and talk. then let it finish and then reboot the phone. However this hasn't worked for me. Another method said that might work is to remove the sim card for a few minutes then plug it back in, that didn't work either. Try it and see if any of those work?

Hopefully the new version will allow us to input our own number into the phone info area.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] Stryder5:
That's weird. My phone number shows up fine in the phone status.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] themetatron:
@jyc124 I know T-Mobile USA replaces the sim at no cost for that issue
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] gaalaagaa:
Hopefully we get a new update with all of this issues adressed. Great ROM as it is.

[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] Krazi Bluntz:
Hey thanks for the quick response ;) .. I did install the adw launcher from the market but its not the same one that's in Villision .. the one in villision is like a tweak version or something
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] Stryder5:
Though I can't speak for Enomther, I don't think he would go through the trouble of removing the stock launcher, tweak ADW, then make it the default launcher on his AOSP rom just for one request. Besides, what is so different between market based ADW and the one Villision has?

Also, I'm pretty sure the TheOfficial G2 ROM is going to be quite silmilar to the Nexus One ROM, which also has stock launcher and just recommends you install ADW or LP from Market if you want an alternative.
