Anyway to adjust gamma? - Nook HD, HD+ Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Anyway to adjust gamma? Or even a media player with hardware decoding that lets you do this?
I tried Screen Adjuster from app store but by default at lowest settings
Id like to lower to give more vibrant colors. I can do with with my nexus s with voodoo color but it only works with OLED screens.

You don't say which device you have or which operating system you are running. The stock HD comes with a screen adjusting app but I know it does not work on the HD+ and I don't know about CM.

Crackle?

Has anybody thought about getting the Crackle app to work on the nook color?

Crackle works well on my Nook color.
I tracked down an apk.... installed.... and off it went.
I do experience minor frame skipping. Not enough to make it unwatchable.
Be aware that the commercials that run prior to your selection are very low rez and look horrible... You selection (TV or Movie) will not look like the commercial...
anyway, I am running CM 7.0.3 with an OC of 1300.

Crackle works great with ManualNooter 4.6.16 with overclock.

Xbmc remote control

Is there a xbmc remote that will work full screen on our Xoom's?
Everthing I tried was sized for small screens....
Thanks!

Have you tried downloading Spare Parts and disabling compatibility mode? After you disable it, you have to restart to see the changes. Basically this will stretch phone apps to full screen.

I thought the Nook HD+ didn't have a mic! Can you give me a link to where it says it has one?
Cheers

You don't need a link. It has one. Look at the tiny hole next to the volume keys.
It is the Nook Color that does not have one.

Thats great, I found some specs that said it had a mic but most of the reviews I found said it had nothing, looks like I might be buying one then.
Thanks

Sound quality on the built-in microphone is stunning. It is really noticeable when I get a skype call from my friend's HD+.
My question is related.I think the HD would be perfect as a POS device for a startup retail space and was wondering if I could get a device like Square that expects microphone input from the headset jack to work with it. I tried it on a stock device but it wouldn't swipe a credit card. I am thinking CM-10 could enable the mic via the headset plug like on a cell phone. Can anyone confirm if this is true or not?
Thanks,
Fred
Update, 2013-07-01 - I decided to go ahead and install CM 10.1 to see if the Nook woudl read teh input from Square and it did not work. Bummer.

Just bought the HD+. Will get Tuesday. Good performance?

So my plan is to immediately put the CM10.1 on this tablet.
I mainly watch movies, read books, browse the web, and play a few games. But not too many games.
Will this tablet give me great performance in general? Or is it going to be limited? What kind of snappiness do you guys have with yours?
For what you will be using for the tablet performance should be perfect with room to spare. The Nook HD+ is a pretty solid tablet, only problems I've encountered are some minor touch sensitivity issues and a little bit of lag here and there but with some tweaking and customization it works pretty well.
Had mine since Wednesday. Great for watching TV/movies (avi/mp4).
Good for reading the web.
Great for comics.
Not got around to reading via the Kindle app.
Plays music fine.
Really enjoying it, but just like previous poster some touch sensitivity issues.
Well, I guess I will just need to try it for a bit and see if I am happy with it.
Hey I noticed that with it stock there are "incompatible" apps from the play store. Fandango for instance. If I put CM on it, am I still limited or is the buildprop edited so we can actually download these apps

No, most that say incompatible will still be incompatible on CM10.1. Your option is to download on another device, transfer the apk to the HD+, enable unknown sources on CM10.1 and install them. They usually run.

Actually, I just did CM to mine. My benchmark before was around 9000, with CM it went to over 10000.
And I found that several 'incompatible' apps became compatible. MLB At Bat works (only for radio, TV can't find my location). Also, a widgets app, iheart radio, and a couple others suddenly became compatible as well. But as they say, your mileage may vary. Of all the apps I have, the only one that is still incompatible is the Nook app... go figure! :laugh:
I can careless about the nook app. I honestly don't read much. I really bought this just because I got it so cheap

For reading of pdf books I suggest OrionReader, simple and smooth as hell.
For video MxPlayer could handle 720p animes on hd+
Really satisfied with the hd+, definitely a bargain to me
I am so glad you mentioned OrionReader. I use my Nook for reading music scores while playing piano and couldn't find an app that moved fast enough while turning the pages. Now I'm all set!

You're welcome Another good thing about it is you can customize behaviours for different tap zones, very convenient

[q] Lack of Nook app on cm10.2

Newb here, I just upgraded my Nook Hd+ stock to cm10.2 nightlies. For the most part everything went smoothly but I'm unable to install the Nook app now.
Is this normal? For Nook to not be able to be able to be installed on Nook hd+'s with cm?
I've downloaded nook from this site
Any bad side effects from Nook not being installed from the Play store?

Have you set allowing apps from unknown sources in settings? You do not explain what you mean by unable to install.
It is normal for the nook app to show as not compatible in the Play Store. Users just side load the app from sites like you referenced. Works fine.

I meant installing through the google play store. I'll keep that in mind in the future, I just thought it was weird that BN wouldn't let me put a nook on my nook. I thought the tablets were a loss leader to encourage you to buy books from them.

It is, but their stock already includes the reader and you are not supposed to be running CM on it. They do not want to encourage people doing that by making the android app available to CM on the nook.
