Hi and good morning.
So i had successfully rooted my nook at the start of this year, had it all setup with my apps, etc.. and well i also had a ton of apps for my 4 yr old on there. She was using the hell out of it and last night i looked over at her and i noticed that the Nook was rebooting. I didnt think much of it but then i saw it booting back up to the original OS, not the screens I have gotten familiar with seeing. Im not 100% sure, but im 99% sure that somehow she navigated to the settings of the NOOk and selected "Erase & Deregister Device". Ugh, im crushed.
But just wanted to check a few things before i root again:
1. I have to imagine it is okay to root again, correct?
2. What software could i have been using to have a nice little backup of the items that i had been using? Is there any you are using?
3. My next step will also be find an app that only allows certain programs to be open by my daughter.
I guess I should maybe take advantage of it being set back to the original today and go over to B&N and read for free for the hour..
Thanks --- Aaron
Hi there
1. Yes
2. I use either appmonster or titanium backup. Which if you like it is worth paying for paid version. That way if you have to do a restore you don't have to constantly click install.
3. Anyone have an idea about this one?

3. Try using a separate launcher for your daughter. i.e. Use Zeam/ADW/LP for your home screen, then use one of the others for your daughter. You can setup her screens the way you want and "hide" the settings icon as well. You wouldn't be able to have a default launcher but it would give you the ability to limit what your daughter can and can't use.
Thanks for the quick replies on this, much appreciated!

You can hide the entire status bar with zeam, there is a widget for full screen mode.

Can hide the status bar with ADW, as well.
Buy her one of her own!
We do have nandroid backups working now, that may be the way to go.
Thank you,

Good for the launcher but it returns in the apps. My biggest issue with it is when I'm typing I accidentally hit it constantly when I'm trying to REALLY type in landscape mode. Very annoying and frustrating.
They way they handle the softkeys and toolbar in Customized Nookie Froyo rocks
Fixed! :- I wiped the data for search 1.1 in titanium back up and rebooted the kindle after this the notification pull down is back! So if you ever accidently deleted search just do the above!
Hey Everyone,
My notification/status bar has vanished on my KFHD7" it happened after I was trying to change the search to Google so it'd stop taking me to amazon marketplace search and I'd accidently deleted search 1.1 when I thought I'd pressed freeze! I really shouldn't attempt such things without sleeping! Anyway I rebooted after That still not realising then the bar was gone.. It's not the launcher settings as I've checked in there I restored the backup of search when I noticed I'd not froze it and it's still the same!
It's no big issue I'd just rather have it there for notifications because no alternative seems to work for me
Any idea's?
Edit : forgot to mention I'm rooted and using kinology I have Google apps I use apex launcher no lock and holo lock
Also if I press search on my Pie soft keys it brings down the menu but only shows the settings buttons and an empty notification screen even though I know there's some there!
Thanks for any help you can offer!

Just a small issue, I have noticed that after a while the animations on my 4x HD stop appearing. I recently factory reset my phone because I was having problems and they came back but disappeared again after I restored a back-up I made before hand. It's not a big deal but if someone knows how to fix it I would be glad to know. (I'm talking about basic transition animations like when you open the app draw or press the home button).
*******My settings are set to 'Show all Animations' so that's not the problem*******
Never mind...
For everybody having this problem just go to developer settings, go to the drawing section then turn the animation settings on.
I rooted my phone (Samsung Galaxy Note GT-N7000) using CyanogenMod software about a year back. Right now I'm using Paranoid Android on my phone from last 3 Months. Recently, i tried changing my theme by downloading a application from Google Play Store. While applying the theme, i selected all the option (Boot Animation, Wallpaper, Icons etc). I liked the theme but not the icons, so i again went to settings and tried removing the icons. Ones the setting was applied, system.ui stopped functioning properly. Every time, i unlocked the phone it used to say system.ui not responding - force close. So i thought of re-installing Paranoid Android. I switched my phone off and used Volume Down+Menu+Power Key for the root menu to open. Since then, the phone is not switching on nor the root menu is opening. What should I do? Please help!! :crying:
Hey guys I don't know if you all have ran into this issue. So the quick story whenever I toggle on Ultra Power Saving it does its thing and toggles on mono screen and the various apps like the phone and messaging apps and Facebook app so its pretty standard in activating this setting. The problem starts whenever I toggle it off that is when it reverts back to the regular launcher I have, that is when I turn it U. Power Saving that it does not keep the apps, folders, and the widgets that I had previously they are not uninstalled just removed from the home screen. Have any of you guys know why or how i can fix this? I'm tired of having to rearrange my apps every time I toggle this feature on. Could this be Samsung or my phone? Any info will help! Also if you have this similar problem then it'd be good to hear that I'm not the only one!!
Info:
Tmobile S6 on Marshmallow 6.0.1
Google Now Launcher
Have already factory restored the device and issue still there.
Sorry I wanted to post pics of it but since I am a noob here i am not able to post Pics But i hope that I explained the problem using just words!!!
