Nook screen recalibrate

Hey guys,
Just to let you know there is an application out there now to take care of force recalibration of the screen.
When I first got my nook I know it didn't register touch properly, so I ran some commands and it started working fine.
Decided I should make my first app something that helps people, so here you go. Checkout "nook screen recalibrate". It's a simple minimalistic application the re calibrates then reboots
Updated Version 2.0
* Better GUI
* Button to start process
* Lowered MinSDK to support froyo (untested)

Here's the market link.
Helpful since you don't have enough posts to post links yet. But thanks for this app!

Ironically when I go to the link and try to push it to my NC, it says it's not compatible. :X

Fine print mentions that is only works with GB (android 2.3 and above).

yep.. i dont think any rom uses anything lower than that

is it different from this app:

The nookie froyo is based on 2.2.
If your software doesn't require 2.3 functionality, can you lower the required API to '7', which is the stock Android API level (2.2/Froyo)?

I think it should work. I shall reduce the requirements.
However there is no way to check cause my touch is working perfect now
However I find it performs better slightly if I do this once a week

Strange, I had reduced the minimum requirements
I have no other froyo device to test on, let me check once again against an emulator

Ok maybe this is in my head, but if I run this every couple nightlies, touch feels slightly better and responsive.
Maybe it's the nightly, maybe the way it interacts, maybe the screen de sensitises over time, maybe it's all in my head
If anyone cares to do some testing, that would be great

This may sound crazy but after running this I think that the screen is actually leases responsive and now shows the "ghost" touches so badly that the on screen keyboard isn't usable. Is there something to do to fix this?

Try cleaning your screen prior to running the application, make sure you don't touch the screen prior to restarting

same thing on my end. I ended up reflashing the latest cm7 nightly and its back to the way it was

That's extremely strange. First time I've heard issues like this crop up. Do you have a screen guard or something

For those who would want to try, scews the S2.
But the link from nolook actually fixes it.

[Q] Phone ignores touches on cm7

If I start a touch from the edge of the phone and run my finger onto the screen the phone a lot of the times it just ignores my touch completely. I have to release and press back down to get it to register.
I only seem to have this problem on cm7. Anyone else having the same issue and is this a feature or a bug of cm7?
thx

D'ya think this might be better placed in the CM7 nightlies thread in the dev section?

D'ya think you could be a little more polite?
EDIT: I'm guessing you're the kind of guy who have a ****ty life and need to build your self esteem online? If so, please make more fun of me, I'm sure it'll help.

No, he's right. CM7 is in the very early stages. This is already known about. It only happens when running your finger from the right side onto the screen, the top/bottom/left side is OK.
It can also affect the P key when typing.

[ROM][CM9]CM9 Vibrant KANGS

FaultException has now posted an official Vibrant CM9 thread. This thread will now be a thread for kangs that have cherry-picks added on top. I will contact a moderator to move it to the general section now as well. The first one is compiling now, and the OP is under construction.

--reserved again--

- reserved to say thanks -
Just flashed it, been running for a little bit.
I could feel the speed increase in this compared to Passion.
Great work, and thanks.
Things I've noticed so far:
- Speed increase compared to Passion.
- I like not having to mount the phone when I connect to the computer. (It transfers things faster, too.)
- Multi-tasking (Hold home button) doesn't take forever to come up anymore.
- It feels really smooth.
- Pulldown toggles are there, nice.
- Launcher is kind of laggy, but we're used to that.
- Keyboard doesn't lag as much as other ICS ROMs.

awwwwwww yeahhhhhhhh!
looking forward to trying this out!

Does this ROM have the CM Settings patch already put in, or do we need to add it ourselves?
Also, is 911 fully functional as it is in Onecosmics rom?

Here is an accurate battery mod that I made for Build 11.

If this gets updated as CM9 does, I wouldn't mind porting over my mods, too.

About to try thanks.

Awesome, going to try this.

after flash gps_fix_build11_captivatemtd.zip . gps is still failure. and display is horizontal by default.

So once this is up and running, it will update as the typical CyanogenMod ROMS do? Only updating the necessary files and such?

That's not for the vibrant.. if you could see, it does say 'captivatemtd,' he copied the second section from the ICS in the captivate section.

Can read, just did not know the captivate had different auto rotate settings.

It's nice to be back in (semi) AOSP territory, as opposed to tweaked existing ROMS

Tablet UI for AOSP/CM10.1 discussion

XDA member AuxLV is working on an app called Tabletizer. It's an apk that does the conversion by creating a flashable zip file on your device which you then flash in the recovery.
[APP] Tabletizer Alpha 4 (2013.03.02)
I've tried this one and it works well.
There are some other roms/patches that do have a Tablet UI option:
[PATCH] True Tablet UI (Apps+GUI) w/o DPI Change for Stock & CM10 - Update Oct11
[ROM][WIFI][CM10.1][Feb27] BeatMod CrystalClear v2.1 | Aroma | TabletUI | Sound Mods
PARANOIDANDROID 3.0 (4.2.2) | Only Rom on Android capable of Hybrid mode
Please add links to other solutions and projects or status updates, and keep general talk about TabletUI in this thread unless new a new one is created.

I updated my G+ with current status.
Sent from my Nexus 7 using Tapatalk HD

I am very interested in this as my posts in the CM 10.1 "official" thread should have made clear, but being as I'm not a developer I can't do much but sit around and hope someone with more talent than I have is capable of making it a reality. I understand that Google has decided to "move on" and just flat out give up on the tablet UI - which is odd considering it's a tablet device we're using with the Nexus 7 and not a damned phone, even so - but that's their prerogative I suppose.
For the moment I'll use Paranoid Android 3.0 when aaron is able to get a 4.2.2 build out, he's currently working on it as noted in his thread last night but it's not available just yet. I was using PA 3.0 with 4.2.1 and found it very useful for many reasons, the tablet UI functionality being the primary one.
The Nexus 7 I have is actually damaged (hence it being a $25 craigslist special) with a crack in the upper right hand corner where the previous owner had dropped it - there's a triangular area in the upper right hand side that doesn't respond to touch anymore, kinda funky how it lines up but, with PA and that tablet UI functionality it's not a real issue because I can hold the menu soft key and it'll bring up the settings for any given app anyway.
If I have to choose a specific ROM I tend to go back to "pure" CM whenever possible so, if someone can actually get the tablet UI functional in 10.1 (based on 4.2.2 at this point) I'm all for it. If not, then PA will fill the ROM role for me.
I remember seeing them introduce Honeycomb and was blown away with the interface layout and the functionality, and now they've basically just swept all that out like yesterday's garbage and I really wish I knew why. It's like seeing demos of versions of Windows that never end up being actually made into workable products - there are videos on YouTube of test versions of Windows Longhorn which was scrapped and then reborn as Vista and some of the stuff they do in those Longhorn videos is beyond cool, seriously.
Android showed some "beyond cool" capability with Honeycomb and a proper tablet UI, now it's like that stuff was a mistake or something and I completely disagree on that respect. But then again, I do understand Google's attempts at unifying the Android interface across all devices instead of having something for phones and then something for tablets, what now with ChromeOS trying to gain traction as well.
Suffice to say if someone can make it possible with CM then fantastic, if not then I'll make do with whatever I suppose. Would be nice, however...

I just want to make sure my app is of top quality, I failed two updates for LagFix when I wanted to make them quick, that will never happen again.

My hero!!!!

Well done on alot of good work.
I will have to be honest that I like the quick settings menu in combo with the notifications drop down. And I like the way the navigation bar is by default.
But the thing I like about the Honeycomb style ui is the settings menu. I guess compared to stock Jellybean, that might be the only thing I like alot (Just to be clear, I did not dislike other aspects). The Honeycomb notifications tray just seemed to add additional screen pressed for functions now contained within the quick settings menu.
But, still. Good job changing the ui. Its not an easy thing to do. I tried to do some changes for personal use, and seemingly small changes completely crash the system to an unusable state.

Hey aux, where will you be posting this app? Id love to test it

First alpha as promised!
Before using: BACK UP!!!
Using:
Launch app
Click "Run tabletizer"
Wait for a few minutes
It will create update.zip file in /sdcard/data/tabletizer/temp
Flash this update.zip from CWM/TWRP recovery
Reboot
App is quite unstable at the moment, because recompilation process eats a lot of RAM and it crashes often when runs out of memory. I'm rewritting smali tool to be more friendly, but it will take some time to finish.

Thank you for your app! I ran the apk, it started the process and got to these last 3 lines:
Services are patched!
Can not recompile.
Compilation exception.
Now it hasn't done anything for 10 minutes. I'll wait a bit longer and try again.

Yep, it does not work, another bug Don't wait, close it. Thanks for report. Will try to figure it out tommorow, it's 23:50 already here and I want to sleep
But at least I've found a way to deal with RAM. A temporary fix which will do for alpha.

Awww thanks so much! Looking forward to your next update!

[Q] Mirror of Hashcodes CM10.1?

Howdy all,
Long time lurker, first time poster. First off sorry for posting this here. I would have responded to Hashcode's thread in Android Dev but sadly I can't post in dev yet =(
I'm looking for his latest 5/14 release, cm-10.1-20130514-UNOFFICIAL-tate.zip. Unfortunately goo.im is down (or intermittent at best) and I have a Kindle Fire HD stuck in recovery.
If anybody happens to have a copy I would be most appreciative. I could even BT sync (love that protocol) it back to other members if you provided me with a copy.
Thanks in advance.

Best I can do is this, the most recent release.

If any other members need this and Krsmqn's link is down, I can repost it or bt sync it.
Also it looks like goo.im is sort of back up (~15KB/s right now)

I see goo.im is having major issues over the last few days. I'll do my next postings at dev host.

Thanks for the response Hashcode. Since I've got you here (I'm working on that 10 post minimum...) I wanted to let you know that although the older 1.5 GHz kernel froze my kindle on boot, your new 1.5 GHz OC kernel works excellent! No hanging on boot and no performance issues.
I also wanted to note that although the camera is working on your 5/14 release, the camera app link is nowhere to be found. Is there any way enable that? Programs like "Nexus 7 Camera Unlocker" work to pull the camera back to the app screen.
Thanks for all your work turning my kindle into an amazing tablet!

The camera app not showing up is because Google has it only showing on devices with a rear facing camera. Apparently they think that no one will want to use a front facing camera for pics
