Hello- first of all thank you for all the efforts that you guys (xda-developers) have put into making Nook Color a cool tablet.
I have pretty much gone through all the ROMs out there and have a few questions:
1. I am looking for a ROM that does not have this phone, camera and other not so relevant stuff for Nook Color. I want my Nook Color to feel and run like a tablet and not like a tablet running phone OS. Is there one out there?
The stock ROM does have more of a e-reader/tablet feel but the home screen sux (I think).
2. The buttons/soft keys in the ROMS I have tested are tiny and hard to use. Once again that is one of the good things about Stock ROM it has big buttons and if you have big fat hands like me they are easier to use. Any mod/theme/setting to make all the buttons typically BIGGER?
Thanks again for your work and support!
(If i have asked questions and have already been asked, my apologies. Please direct me to the relevant thread)
Doesn't changing the screen density do this? I believe some people change the screen density to a value of 250 or so to make the icons appear bigger. I think it does cut something off, though. Do a search, it might be what you want.
Tablet Tweaks is the thread title I think.
I am on my phone now so no links or long post.
Your best bet MAY be honeycomb, long term.
The tablet tweaks are still being tested but are a tremendous improvement.
right now it is a separate rom (based on latest CM7) compiled every few days by the dev
It IS considered at best beta last I knew. Project is only a week or so old.
I use CM7 with the tablet tweaks and oc kernel and have few problems; everything that does act up is being worked on actively.
I'm currently on customized nookie froyo with wretched's theme.
Looks and feel good to me:

Theme:

Additional app:
- Button savior instead of softkey for full screen app. It's less intrusive
- No Lock : disable the lockscreen, when pressing a button the nook wake up without the phone styled lockscreen.
I use zeam as my launcher with stock rooted. I don't see any 'phone' artifacts anywhere. I imagine this would be the same for any rom.
I remapped volume up to back and don't even use soft keys or the like anymore. If all the buttons are too small then I think a density bump is your best bet.
Hello to all
I began to despair of finding a way to change the volume ALL MODES with physical keys Note ...
On any smartphone other than Samsung , the physical buttons decrease or increase all sounds not just the ring-tone ...
- JKay maked a mode that allowed to overcome this concern but no more development since GB.
- CM9 ROM was also the possibility of setting single volume.
- we can found on the GPlay gas plants applications that offer hours following place ect ect .. but too heavy
you have any other leads? or better yet: the solution?
thank
I accidently posted this in the general thread instead of the Q/A thread. Can't seem to move it there. My sincere apologies.
I am trying to get Stunner 2, specificly pie controls and performance control, to fully work on my note.
Symptoms (on both 2.3.3 and 2.3.11):
- Pie control turned on but not showing. Tried about all combinations of pie control settings to get it to work.
- Performance control shows slider handles fixed to the far left, and cannot be moved.
- Superuser access notifications seem to be off at times (ie. showing 'Superuser granted to Theme Chooser' when i toggle Pie controls)
These symptoms occur directly after flashing the ROM and initial setup (no settings changed, no apps installed). I have also tried it while having extended desktop turned on as some suggested and tried multiple dpi settings.
I have tried to reflash the ROM multiple times, following instructions to the letter (this is my first post here but i'm a frequent visitor and have flashed probably over 50 ROMs on my note in the past). So full wipe, dalvik cache wipe, /system format etc.
Have been searching for a solution for hours now, have scanned the entire development thread, forum search, google, you name it... to no avail.
I loved stunner v1 back then and the vids showing off the pie controls make me Want it!
Any help with this would be greatly appreciated!
1) Pie control turned on but not showing. Tried about all combinations of pie control settings to get it to work.
2) Performance control shows slider handles fixed to the far left, and cannot be moved.
3) Superuser access notifications seem to be off at times (ie. showing 'Superuser granted to Theme Chooser' when i toggle Pie controls)
Answering you:
1) Did you try to slide your finger from out of the screen to the inside? Because i never had a single issue with Pie
2) doing some reading before posting and using search would help a lot, this is a known issue...
3) Install SuperSU? It has more features and it is more stable!

I have the same problem.
I must admit, it never crossed my mind to try PIE as I've never used it before and I was busy getting used to AOKP/CM10.1 having moved from TW JB.
Thought I would try it as you mentioned the problem and I can't get it to work either.
I am running on 240DPI, don't know if the DPI has anything to do with PIE functioning correctly.
I did think of looking for the app and wiping data and cache, but I can't find anything that looks like it is PIE.
Not the end of the world for me as I didn't intend to use it in the first place, but would be interesting to see how it works.
---------- Post added at 02:21 PM ---------- Previous post was at 02:09 PM ----------
Looks like it might be DPI related.
I am running on 240DPI, and this I haven't changed.
The default PIE settings didn't work for me, so I changed them to the following:
Trigger Size - Big (This is what makes it work!!)
Pie Gravity - Right (shouldn't matter, but I wanted it on the right)
Pie Size - Large (Gigantic is too big for comfortable one handed operation, with Small the info text is too small for me)
Pie Style - Default (default)
Pie Gap - Huge (default)
The other settings are personal preferences.
All working fine for me now.
EDIT: I have changed the Trigger Size from Huge to Big, as I had some problems with the trigger area overlapping with my on-screen keyboard, so bizarrely I couldn't press the P key on the keyboard. Setting the Trigger Size to Big has resolved this.
Had this problem too and was very frustrated with it. But thanks - changing trigger size to BIG makes it work!
Thanks lots!

Of course, I will do some other mods, but I don't want to make them all twice. Now I am waiting for official release. But if you find some bugs, I'll try to repair them.
downloading.. it will take long as I have a very slow connection so can anyone in the meantime tell me if the rom is pre-rooted or I have to download and flash supersu separately? can't find this info in OP sorry!
Everything should work fine, including root.
First post edited with SU info.
first of all, thank you for the new 4.3 version of Hybrid. I never expected it to be released so soon, thought you would wait until sony releases the official.
and i've got a small question.. it's not very often but sometimes i get a sudden reboot with 4.3 (i'm now on leaked version from dark-lord).
do you have them also?
i will see if i have them with you rom too and when they do i will observe if they come on a specific moment.
No reboots on my side, but it could be problem with the protection circuit on battery, which I have bypassed. But if it was fine for you on 4.1 Hybrid, it should be fine also on 4.3, mainly because of the same sysmon values, gpu max speed, etc.

it works for me.. do you mean the speaker when you listen to some music with walkman app for example?
ps. installed first 4.3 hybrid and everything is very nice so far, in conjunction with gravitybox and xperia flip settings is great!
plus I love i can use again lockLock widget in homescreen and as lockscreen widget! :good:
Also I like the heavy cleaning you did (I just did a little more )
thanks bye!
What I meant is when I talk with someone and decide to turn the speaker on ...they cant hear me unless I don't switch them off...

ah ok now is more clear.
I think I had the same problem yesterday, I will try again later today
EDIT: tried again, I have same problem (if I enable the speaker during a call, I can hear the voice from the other side through the speaker, but they can not hear mine, so I guess the problem is on the microphone, not on the speaker btw)
Hmm. Ok I will take a look at it. For now, if you want, you can switch back to original /etc/snd_soc_msm/snd_soc_msm_2x. Take it from the 4.3 leak.
i know thats stupid question but w/e, 2 cores always on improve performace?
Definitely yes.

Many Thanks. Awesome! Its working! But there was a really cool viking dude on the nexus 7. the Viking Dude!? How about that? :silly:
-back button sends me to google now. Dont know if thats a feature or what.
I'm probably a less technical user than many. But here's my $.02.
The navigation bar customizations are huge. Once you get used to having a "last app" button there's no going back.
I got non-stop Google Keyboard errors which I worked around by using voice to install Swiftkey. I don't use Google Keyboard anyway because there's no split layout.
The back button goes to Google Now because of the navigation ring. I disabled that too.
I haven't grasped the mystery of how themes behave. There are often subtle differences from one ROM or device to the next. In this case with SUBZ3ER0 I can see the text on my Gmail widget and in Google Voice where often it's black-on-black. I have no idea if that's because of some deliberate change, but if so that's great. (And if it's not, it's still great.)
I recently switched from an Xperia tablet Z and was missing a lot of the customizations. (On the bright side I've been wasting less time constantly flashing different ROMs.) This is very nice.

Thanks for the feedback, I will try to address theme over the next week. I think we need some overlays for this tab DPI
In the meantime, you can adjust the navi bar size in Settings/Interface
For me, adb over wireless crashes settings. Using rom toolbox pro instead. So far so good otherwise.

Sorry, poor word choice. I meant that the navigation bar customizations are "huge" in the sense that they are very significant, very helpful. There isn't anything abnormal about their size. It took a while for that to click before I realized my miscommunication.

Dumb question - does the term "brickmaking" on the download site mean that it's just very experimental and risky or that brickmaking is the expected outcome?

It's been great for several days. I was getting random crashes on various apps on 4.4.2, sometimes a bunch at once, but it hasn't happened in the past few days. I need to stop being lazy and read about how to save log files and what to do with them. There are other variables. I was using ART and using a lower resolution. Either way it would take a whole lot of crashes to negate the huge benefit of the last app nav bar button. It's the greatest thing since sliced bread. Better than that. I'd rather tear my bread apart and eat it in chunks than lose my last app button.

Does this ROM support ART runtime? Also, still no support to exFat file system, right?
It could my imagination but after the last nightly this seemed exceptionally responsive and fast.
