I just went into NookColor Tools and saw that Fava Book Reader is responsible for draining 69% of my battery usage so far. Is that the" read to me" reader? How do i kill that thing?

If I get a nook and root it/enable market and all that stuff can I still access the normal nook stuff? Basically can I still get into the reader and what not?

I just noticed that since using facebook on the nook, im no longer getting notifications on my blackberry. Since i dont get notifications on the nook either, i missed a ton of comments. Anyone else?
Muchas gracias

I just rooted my nook last night with autonooter and followed the instructions for enabling the market. On the market, all of the apps show up but only the first 10 results appear. For example, if i enter the all games category, only the top ten results pop up. There is no" load more" or" more" button the usually appears on the bottom of the screen on the android market. If anyone has a solution then please let me know. Thank you.
P.S. I am using the stock B&N rom that was on 1.1 before i rooted.

we all feel this way from time to time..
Is it just me or does the nook color still not have access to all the apps after doing the above fix. Doing the above only gave me more apps when compared to looking at Android Market through PC.
I do my browsing on the PC, and then type in the exact name I am searching for on the nook.
I like to use my nc with my grandson. Will i lose the feature of the nook reading childrens books if i root it?

If you boot one of the android versions from a SD you don't lose any of the features because there is no change to your NC.

Thank you!

Stock rooted NC also can still read children's books. So, the answer to the original question is that you do not lose this feature if you root. However, if you boot from SD, I believe that the B&N app does *not* read children's books, so you would have to boot to stock, ie use an unrooted Nook, to do what you want.

it can, depending on what apps you use on your phone, or what kinds of services you use. it can be less, and it can be much more as well.

Yes it's on high accuracy. It's the way the phone came set up. If it's normal then I'm not gonna worry. I don't use Google Now a lot but maybe moderately. It's only on it's 3rd charge cycle. T-Mobile device running on Verizon. I unplugged it last night at 10:45 pm and it's now almost 6:30 pm. With about 2:55 minutes of on screen time.

That's why then, high accuracy location kills your battery which would also explain why google search is up there with usage as well. Google now search is using the location to suggest things even if you aren't looking at it. If you change the location to battery saver it won't be as accurate but it will save you battery as its name suggests.

OK I'll take that into consideration. How about using GPS only? Battery saving us off by quite a bit. Will battery saving work well with navigation?

For navigating I would use high accuracy which google maps will prompt you to do anyway. (I plug my phone in for long trips) I normally keel my location off because I don't need it unless I'm traveling. I believe that the device sensor (GPS only) uses more than the battery saving mode. I'm not 100% sure but it seemed to the last time I used that setting.

OK Pilz thanks for the heads up. This is my 1st Nexus device and it didn't seem to make too much difference with my note 3. I know that Lollipop is still in the beginning stages and they're still trying to iron out some bugs. It's an awesome device otherwise and will be worth it in the end. It sucks I had to go the T-Mobile route. I tried to make their service work but they just have nowhere near the coverage Verizon has and I didn't feel like waiting till it arrived on their network.
