[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Mif425:
I have used it before, but it just seems sluggish compared to something like MIUI. Could this be true?

Forgive the noobish questions, but are there different kernels you can run with a rom for more speed?
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Shiftyshadee:
I believe MIUI is somewhat of an AOSP based ROM (someone correct me if I'm wrong) and Sense based ROMs will always feel slightly slower than those.

HeyItsLou has a few kernels that he made that work well with his ROMs try 'em out :)

I'm looking for an extra charger for my nc. What I need to know is what is the mah output of the stock changer so I can get one that had the same rating. Our can someone link me to a cheap stock charger.
[Nook Color Accessories] mrintegrity:
The output is 5volts / 1.9 Amperes.

Edit, it is written on the charger btw, you could probably have checked that your self :).
[Nook Color Accessories] Novarider:
Where can I get a charger with the same specs? I don't want to spend $20 but if I have to I will just buy another stock one.

I have a 5v 700mah charger that I bought for my phone. Will that work or is the rating to low?
[Nook Color Accessories] captfoss:
That will work, it just wont charge as fast...
[Nook Color Accessories] xxosynrgoxx:
FYI: I tried using my HTC usb charger with the nook usb cable and it will not charge. The charging light flickers.
[Nook Color Accessories] Novarider:
Thats what I'm worried about
[Nook Color Accessories] nrune:
There is this cable from boxwave with a dongle off the end that you are supposed to use to charge from USB chargers. Why would anyone need this?

[Nook Color Accessories] Novarider:
It looks like one end is for transferring data only and the other is for charging only
[Nook Color Accessories] Novarider:
I just tried the charger I have that works with my phone and it wont charge my NC. When I plug it in nothing happens it doesn't even recognize its plugged in
[Nook Color Accessories] MikeSpears:
boxwave.com/products/wallcharger-direct/barnes-_-noble-nook-color-wall-charger-direct_4101.htm

That looks like it will do the job perfectly and is only $13
[Nook Color Accessories] mrintegrity:
It is charging, just not as fast and the device doesn't notify you of it. HTC usb wall plug chargers are usually 5volts and 1amp, the nook requires 1.9 amps to charge properly.

/mr
[Nook Color Accessories] Novarider:
There are no spec listed for that charger so it could be a 700mah or it could be a 1.9a charger.
[Nook Color Accessories] gtriever:
How many of you guys recommending underpowered chargers actually have any electronics background?
[Nook Color Accessories] captfoss:
The nook charges when connected to a usb socket on a computer, which provides 500ma as a high power device. So your 1000ma charger is twice as good as using a computer.

In order to get 1900 ma, the nook isn't using stock usb stuff in the charger... but normal usb works just fine because, well, the standard requires it to...

4000 mAh battery should charge fully in 2 hours on the nook charger, 4 hours on the htc charger, or 8 hours on a computer...
[Nook Color Accessories] Bimboy:
Good to note that there's a bug on the NC that makes it appear that it's not charging, when connected via USB connection, but it really does charge.
[Nook Color Accessories] ph00ny:
regular micro usb chargers from cell phones will charge the nook even when it says it's not charging.
[Nook Color Accessories] PJE66:
The NC will charge from my Droid's power adaptor even though it does not show it to be working. It will take a lot longer to charge with a standard 0.5A USB power adaptor.
[Nook Color Accessories] RoboRay:
In theory, it should take about 4 times as long to charge from standard USB instead of the B&N charger.
[Nook Color Accessories] DatterBoy:
It does work. It's just charging slow so you can't necessarily tell. Also. There will be no indicators on the nook to show that it is charging but i'm pretty sure it is. Leave it plugged in overnight and see.

Anyone know if an Otterbox Commuter case can be modified (or fit naturally without modification) with Verizon's 2150 mAh battery and extended door?

If it has to be modded and anyone knows how to do it properly would you be willing to let me pay you to do it for me?
[Droid Incredible Accessories] morph3k:
Really? No one knows if this is even possible?
[Droid Incredible Accessories] v1ral:
Interested as well..

hmm maybe you can just purchase the case and try your hand at modding it.

I would, I am pretty good with a dremel and a pair of Lexan scissors..

Might work great.

Good luck

[Droid Incredible Accessories] morph3k:
I'm using a commuter right now and 2 things are holding me back from an extended battery:

1. cost

2. being able to use my otterbox effectively (deal breaker for me)

I am horrible with a dremel and such so there is no possible way I can modify it.

If I just knew it was possible to do when I got the money i'd buy the battery and perhaps pay you to do it?

[Droid Incredible Accessories] v1ral:
Well first off I would have to buy the battery and then try my hand at it first..

Then if you can send me the case.. i'll do it for you no charge jst for shipping.

shipping might cost a good amount though.

but I can do it, if I get a battery haha.

[Droid Incredible Accessories] morph3k:
Sounds awesome! When/if you get around to doing it let me know please. Also I really don't mind chipping in some cash + shipping for the work.

Hi there :)!

I've rooted my Desire HD and installed the engineering version of HBOOT and have S-OFF. I have NOT installed a custom recovery or custom ROM though.

If I update my Desire HD's software in the future (using the official updates), will it wipe my root and S-OFF?

[Wildfire General] mattburley:
Rooting my Android HTC Wildfire was a mistake now I can't get 2.2 on it. I need to reflash it back to the original HTC Wildfire T-Mobile UK firmware so I can re install my apps and then use the phone as it came from factory. Can you please tell me a way to do this?

If there's a better way can you also share that please?

To sum up, I want to remove any traces of a root from my HTC Wildfire. Removing all info is not a problem at all.

I want do this because every time I try to install the 2.2 update I see "E:signature verification failed" and when I switch off signature verification I see "apply sdcard:update." I see an error saying "E:Can't open /sdcard/update.zip (No such file or directory) Installation aborted." When I move my update zip file to the root of the card and make it called "update.zip" I see another error! I think the only way to fix this is so re flash the original firmware, which I don't have a backup of :(

PLEASE help me with this Thank you so much!
[Wildfire General] Markerton:
In Nandroid, have you tried selected "choose zip from sd card" or something along those lines?
[G2 and Desire Z General] ranzz:
I'm having a problem with writing text messages.

When in a certain conversation, I start to type using the Hardware keyboard, and after a few words the screen just jumps up in a few stages - first I can't see the Attachment button, then the Send button semi-disappears, and then I'm in the middle of the conversation and can't see the typing window anymore.

This is driving me crazy, and worst part - it doesn't always happen! I can't understand in which situation it happens and when it doesn't.

Some more information:

Stock 2.2 firmware and stock messaging application

Using AnySoftKeyboard

Urmm, when writing this message I just noticed that even if I don't type anything, the screen jumps up. meaning I just went into a conversation, put the phone aside to write this message on the forum, and came back finding the screen has jumped up the conversation instead of displaying the typing window.

I was told on another forum that this was discussed on XDA but I can't find anything, any lead would be great. thanks

It would help if you said which stock ROM you are referring to, there are several, depending on your phone sub-model, carrier, region, etc.

[G2 and Desire Z General] Xerott:
From what I understand it has to do with light hitting the trackpad. This happens to me, but only in certain spots in certain rooms.

Like it always happens when I lean back in my chair at my desk, which happens to expose my phone to the ceiling fan. When the light is on is when I get the crazy scrolling which leads me to believe there's some truth in this.
[G2 and Desire Z General] dictionary:
It's the trackpad. Try typing that same message away from a direct light source. Pretty sure the issue will go away. Annoying
[G2 and Desire Z General] ranzz:
Umm, I don't get why you guys think it's the trackpad that's causing this. cause if you are currently in the writing window of the stock HTC messaging app in landscape and hardware keyboard out, try to use the trackpad to go up/down and it won't actually go up to the conversation. so why would light hitting it do that if it's not a possibility manually?
[G2 and Desire Z General] candy for breakfast:
mine does this as well, i've found one particular spot in my house where it happens. pretty sure it's light hitting the pad at the right (or wrong) angles as well.
[G2 and Desire Z General] Xerott:
I just tried it on my phone in the stock app and the trackpad will scroll up from the text box both in landscape and portrait..
[Windows Phone 7 General] TAMHAN:
Hi Folks,

I had an Omnia 7 in my labs some time ago to write an article - back then, I cannot remember the machine working in landscape mode.

I now got another one from a friend who is higher up at a carrier, and it can do landscape mode in Messaging, Calendar and various other apps (but not the tile list).

Am I just forgetting things, or is this machine weird?
[Windows Phone 7 General] OGCF:
Do you mean you can read the text messages in landscape or you can see the list of texts in landscape?

Well I'm pretty sure all retail WP7 devices have landscape support in the areas you mentioned.
[Windows Phone 7 General] The Gate Keeper:
certain things have landscape support such as the ones you mentioned, and certain things don't, such as the start screen/app list, and panorama controls.

it's not that they can't support it, it's just sometimes it doesn't make sense to. for example, look at the xbox hub, imagine trying to use the panorama control in landscape mode. it quite quite difficult. I'm developing an application at the moment and am trying the both mode support for pilot controls (the one where you see each page's headers next to each other, rather than a whole page jump), and though it works, the landscape support looses a lot of visible content because the headers take up quite a bit of space. but in saying that, there may be requirements for having it.

why did i give that example? well it's up to the dev's discretion whether it's needed or not. but yea, things like messaging, email, calendar, web browser, they all have it at least. which are probably the most important ones.
[Windows Phone 7 General] Jim Coleman:
To my mind, it's not very natural to hold a phone in landscape orientation, so I would only do so where the content needed it - videos, big HTML emails, web browsing, photos, games etc. WP7 covers all that so I'm happy. I think people can sometimes obsess over things like this and need to chill a bit.
[Windows Phone 7 General] TAMHAN:
Hi Folks,

sorry to take so long for responding. Yes, we can see the list of texts AND the texts themselves in landscape mode.

In addition, we have full landscape support in:

x) Settings (!!!)

x) Alarms

x) Calendar

...

The ROM version is stated as

OS rev 7.0.7004.0

Firmware revision: 2424.10.9.9

Has anyone else been typing a message with the QWERTY keyboard and seen the predictive text suggesting some really hokey options? My MT4G seems to get in modes where I type "yes" and it's default suggestion is "yesmuffgluten" or something ridonkulous.

Does anybody here use this phone?

SOrry for noob question but does it support video calling?

Or WP7 does not support it ATM?

And what are these 3 sensors in front of it?
[Windows Phone 7 General] OGCF:
No WP7 device currently has video calling. The lens you're seeing is probably the proximity sensor, which detects if your face is up to the phone and shuts off the screen so you don't accidentally press something.
[Windows Phone 7 General] doministry:
Yeah but there are 3 there. Two similar and one deeper looking like camera.....
[Windows Phone 7 General] blacksoul0:
I have the Optimus 7 and it doesn't have a camera at the front. None of the WP7 devices out there has a front facing camera and I guess that's because video calling isn't supported.
[Windows Phone 7 General] brummiesteven:
One will be a proximity sensor, one will be a light sensor for automatic brightness and no idea on the third.
[Windows Phone 7 General] doministry:
well third one looks like a camera ;-)

hy everybody.

i try mod the system.img on ubuntu linux with unyaffs and mkfs.yaffs2, i "hacked" the symlinks(because the armv6 unyaffs doen't like) so now everything is ok, unyaffs works well. BUT:

when i flash the other sin files with flashtool, my x8 is restart after a green sony ball. i gave to all file in bin folder: rwx-rx-rx and the all other files got rw-r-r permissions.

so, i don't know what is the problem with this method.

//my system.img was flashed with a method in "clean and pre-rooted 2.1 rom" thread.//

in attachment the files:(unyaffs and mkfs.yaffs2.x86)
[XPERIA X8 Android Development] racht:
unfortunately unyaffs-x86 does NOT preserve all file permissions if image is extracted and reassembled in Linux x86.

You have to extract/assemble on the phone to keep permissions.

Or, alternatively, you can fix permissions by using xRecovery tool, there's a menu "fix permissions".

To see why exactly your phone reboots, use adb logcat from PC.
[XPERIA X8 Android Development] trapacska:
yess, thank you! now i found a mkfs.yaffs2 for arm processors for android. it's verry slow.

so i made my sdcard to ext2, and now i try to "extract" my img.
[XPERIA X8 Android Development] auphone:
so ... It's used to ?
[XPERIA X8 Android Development] propc:
i've created sh script to view your current permissions.

it could be useful to re-set the permission manually to create the ROM

how:

upload to root of sdcard

run

su
cd /sdcard
sh plist.sh

it will create folder "permissions" on your sdcard.

all files permission listed there

open with notepad++
[XPERIA X8 Android Development] trapacska:
it's cool! thank you. now i try to debrand the oroginal x8 rom.
[XPERIA X8 Android Development] propc:
you know what. i've found a better method to change permissions

1-mount original system.img

mkdir tmp/1
sudo mount -o loop /your/system.img/path /tmp/1

2-clone permissions from original system.img to your system folder

chmod -R --reference /tmp/1 /your/new/system/path

and the permission fix done!

EDIT: tested. and worked. I've finally created my own modified ROM :D (running on sdcard)

EDIT2: some problem with root permissions, will work on it
[XPERIA X8 Android Development] trapacska:
thank you :) i found a way to fix permissions too:

1. unyaffs original system.img

2. in busybox shell mount it to r/w

3. copy xrecovery and su and superuser to fresh rom. :)

(for me it works well without xrecovery fix permissions)

if there is some error, you can fix it with xrecovery :)

Screen looks great. But I'm having two issues.

First, the screen feels kinda rough dragging my finger across. By comparison my Galaxy S phone and iPad are very smooth and glide with no resistance.

Is this normal, can it be improved?

Second, the screen seems unresponsive at times. I'll have to tap more than one to get it to recognize an action. Maybe it's just being slow.

Also the calibration seems to be a bit off. I often seem to be clicking items below what I tapped on. Not sure it's completely user error since I don't seem to be having this much trouble with my 4 inch Android phone.

PS. The phone is rooted with AutoNooter and using LauncherPro and Dolphin browser.
[Nook Color General] khaytsus:
My screen is very smooth, and a little bit tacky... I'd prefer a less tacky, smoother feel, but it's okay.

Unresponsive I've not noticed really, but the calibration on the edges and/or corners is funky.. Like hitting the Search button in the market is hit and miss, otherwise other places I personally haven't seen any issues.
[Nook Color General] peiziyu:
There's a thread on here / directions on nookdevs for how to recalibrate the screen. A lot of people have been reporting issues with the calibration on the edge of the screen. It doesn't bother me too much, so I haven't tried, but results are apparently quite good.
