[Q] Before I buy..

I am going to Barnes & Noble today to get the Nook Color. I want to buy it so I can root it and use it as a tablet/ereader. Are the newest version of the NC's rootable or do I need to buy an older version off eBay or something. Thanks in advance!

No, you're fine. The current firmware, 1.01, is rootable. It'll probably come with 1.0 anyway.
If you want a great value on a quality android tablet, I don't think you'll be disappointed!

Alright thanks man, I am actually buying this over the Galaxy Tab, lol. Hope it is as amazing as it sounds.

Buy two nooks, set them next to each other, and cross your eyes a lot. Now you hve a 3d tablet for $100 less than a galaxy tablet...

If you can live without GPS, cameras, 3G, etc., I see no reason to pay over twice as much for a Galaxy Tab. Mine has everything I would have wanted from a Galaxy Tab-- and this is without a custom ROM.

Yes, I bring my evo everywhere, so I can just easily tether to it, I don't need GPS or cameras because obviously the evo has them.

Yep - that's exactly what I do. Wireless Tether app (version pre-12 I think I'm using) works great.
While there's no GPS for navigation, it gets other location services from the network, so Google Maps and whatnot get my location to within 100 yards or so.

I’m using my DroidX to tether.
I don’t need camera and crap on the tablet.
I have NFS Shift running on mine flawlessly along with just about all the apps I’ve installed.
I think the new thread should be “what does not work”. Everything I’m using sems to work.

Cool, thanks for the feedback

You may want to buy somewhere that has a better return policy, but thats really up to you.
When I was at B&N today just to look, two people walked in within 5 minutes with defective units...One had no WIFI, the other had screen issues.
They sent the guy with no Wifi home, telling him he must have typed in his password wrong...They would not exchange for him.. They never even looked at it.
They sent the lady home because she did not have her charger.
I JUST bought mine at Best Buy...First one had a dead dark pixel right smack in the middle of the screen, also had some dust and the flicker everyone mentions..
I exchanged it, however they really gave it the 3rd degree and looked like they did not want to exchange it..They pulled all the packaging apart, turned it on, went through all the menues, etc....
Second one is in good shape, but does have a stuck pixel that only is seen on a full black screen..I can live with that I guess.
Examine yours closely, because I have a feeling there is quality issues.
I would assume they are getting a large amount of returns now and are probably going through them thoroughly..

Alright thanks, I might consider buying from Best Buy then instead.

Just got mine Christmas Eve. I had looked long and hard at a Galaxy Tab. But at the price, I just couldn't pass up the Nook. With rooting, it is everything that I wanted in a pad. As mentioned before, coupled with my rooted HD2, it is an awesome duo.
And as a stand-alone, the Nook does everything I could want. It came with 1.0, but updating was simple. Auto-nootering was just as simple. AWESOMENESS!

Another possibility for the return scrutiny is that that B&N/Best Buy are now well aware of what many are doing with these, and are happy to sell more units--as long as it isn't causing them to lose money.
. . . And one way they could lose money is if people screw things up rooting and want a replacement or refund. Dead pixels have nothing to do with rooting, but the retail world could easily over-generalize as "don't take NookColor returns lightly."

Whats funny is they were taking all kinds of stuff back like Xbox,PS3, even Ipads and never batted an eye, but the Nook got the magnifying glass lol...
So many holiday returns.

This phone reminded me why I don't buy from carriers

Seriously, this is a nightmare. AT&T logo in the status bar, HEAPS of bloatware, persistent WiFi connected notification for some reason, and a nice tramp stamp.
If there is one thing I wish Samsung would do like HTC, it is selling straight to me untarnished from their store.
This one is going back.

I agree.
For me it gets worse when they lock the bootloader and make it nearly impossible to escape the bloat. I'll deal with it and disable most of the problems, but I don't understand it.
Honestly what is the point of the Wifi notification.

Oh, it get's even better. Samsung lets each carrier muck around with and make whatever weirdo changes they want.
On the AT&T variant they're toggle-able options, not so on the T-mobile. (I have both at the moment.)

Between the two, I think T-mobile is "better."
I can't deal with text in the status bar. At all. Plus, T-mobile tends to be less locked down.
Honestly, I might send them all back. If i could buy one "untampered" from Samsung that would be MUCH better.

Oh I agree entirely. I'd prefer to keep the T-mobile, but sitting on it for 40 days before I could use it on AT&T is ridiculous.
The AT&T version is bloated and locked down and the International version has no direct ETAs. (most sites are saying end of April)
Pretty sweet...

Ugh, what a situation.

I got tired of my old LG G3, so I got an iPhone 6+, so far 10 days in it, I'm not missing my G3 at all, now I do like the S6 and I still have 4 days to decide if I keep the 6+ or change to the S6. With that said, AT&T includes so much crap on the S6, plus the locked bootloader and probably no root for a couple of months.... that I guess the iPhone will stay since 'it just works' and camera is just a tad less than the S6 and plus iOS 8.3 is just butter, it will probably have a jailbreak before the S6 is rooted.
And I already try to live with a locked Touchwiz when I had the S5 and I only lasted 1 month before changing to the M8 ( I really hate stock touchwiz).

Hey REDDIT buddy!!!!! I returned mine and bought a dev edition m9

I was kind of wanting the s6, but this thread makes me feel better about getting the at&t m9. I'm already unlocked running a custom rom and kernel.

Coming from the Nexus 6 and the M8 I sort of forgot how bad it is. So much unnecessary control. They get their damn claws into every dang crevice of this device. Makes me sick. Samsung is a global force and pretty much the face of android. They need to step up and tell carriers to back off. This is one thing I do wish they would steal from Apple.
And that god awful- persistent wifi notification. What in the entire f**k. Was that like an effort to make super sure customers know when their Wifi is on to avoid data charges? At least give people the option to stop it.

Oh, qq more. If you don't know what you are buying then don't buy it. Samsung phones on AT&T have been exactly like this for a long time, the S4 I have has all the same complaints you are referring to here. Don't act like it's new - it's expected.

I agree completely. I've used a Motorola device for too long.

It gets tiresome reading the same complaints about AT&T phones over and over. None of it is new at this point. And if you are returning your phone then go post in the forum for whatever phone you are going to have. This thread is beyond pointless. Once it's rooted existing xposed modules will take care of all the complaints you have, save carrier branding on the hardware.

So is note 7 Rom developing coming to am end?

Just wanted to see if devs are still going to be developing for this device with all the issues that are STILL happening apparently. It's such a shame because I absolutely love this phone. TEKs and OVERDRIVE roms looked real promising. I would just to keep a phone for 2 years if of developing is going to die off.

well considering a 2nd recall by samsung will most likely happen within the next few days according to t-mo. i would say the development for the n7 is done period. i got a feeling the n7 won't be back on the market after this either. samsung will probably scrap em all and move on to the s8 or even the note8 which will most likely need to be renamed as this whole thing has literally damaged the notes name.

A true bummer, I really don't want another phone but I guess I don't have a choice. Back to a note 4 I guess until a note 8 gets released which might not even happen. I've been a note holder since the note 2 (except a note5 which I wasnt impressed with)

The Note4 is my daily driver again, took back my replacement Note 7 yesterday.
It's basically got all the functionality where it really matters, the S-Pen.
The other features that were heavily marketed were of no consequence to me.
I definitely notice the difference between the two as for overall performance, but, it's not an awful experience by any stretch.
Throw your ROM of choice on the Note4 & ya got yourself a very comparable experience.

My phone before this was actually a note 4 and the only reason I went to a note 7 was because my phone was stolen. I was running abstrak rom (now discontinued). I'm probably going to see what mm roms they have for it now. Since I have to purchase another note 4, it will probably be on mm and I dont even know if it's rootable. My old note 3 and 4 were excellent phones, it just pisses me off that Samsung stops updates for older phones basically forcing you to upgrade phones. That being said, I'm sure the note 4 will never get a future update.

And, lights out.......

You guys believe a Note 7 V3 will ship with rootable firmware?
I seriously doubt it, we caught a lucky break on this one & some on V2 were left out in the cold w/a phone dead for development.
It's a nice phone without root, Package Disabler apps help a lot,along with a decent Ad Blocker, but, not enough for Round 3 on the exact same phone.
I'll check in on the next iteration,the Note 8,or whatever they'll call it.....

When Samsung has a major fiasco they recall all the product gather all the staff in the court house and destroy the product in front of them and the manager of that department is then banned from the company for life. Korean custom. Not only did the guy lose his job he disgraced his Family for generation to come. Going back to Note 7 the product is being discontinued it was announced in German newspapers today

GREAT!! *sarcasm*
My Note 5 was messing up and I got the 7 for the upgrade.
I'll have to debate this, as mine was one of the ones that wasn't a replacement or recalled. But with no rooting ability, or way to drop back a version to gain root...might have to go back to the Note 5.

I never even attempted to try the software update. I didn't like the stupid green battery icons or grouped notifications. I still have my v2 on original release firmware with updates blocked. I like the phone uprooted but I do not like the current software for it. It's a shame because I love phone otherwise, but without future root to make those small tweaks on the v3, I think I'll wait until I find something I really like. I've always been a Samsung guy that being said I'm not a real Fan of pure Google type phones. For some reason I really like touchwiz (ya I know).

Yea, that'd be so awesome.

It's surprising as I said, more so now that I've had some time with the watch because it's actually pretty good. I get all day battery life, the watch does a decent job of keeping track of my gym time, I find the assistant useful since I mostly use it to set timers, alarms, various simple things play well on the watch that would have been an assistant search or activity on the phone. Lists, notes, recipes, all work well on the watch. An example would be grocery lists, it's nice to walk through the store while simply glancing at the watch instead of pulling the phone.
All similar to what I did with my previous smartwatches but it all works better here due to the combination of (more fluid) hardware pushing the GUI, AW 2.0, along with the rotating crown to quickly scroll. It's not a huge difference but for me it's pushed smartwatch use into a place where I put my watch on in the morning because I want to, not because I tell myself to use it. My day now includes getting schit done with it, before it really didn't.
Anyhow I hope you gents can pick one up soon. It's so dead here I've stopped checking to see if there was anything interesting to learn.

From what I understand, I do in order to use LTE. I can get it from Verizon or the Google store, neither have them in stock.

Nah, both Verizon and AT&T are bands 2,4, and 5 as is the watch sold on the Google store. Others are reporting it working, do a search to verify but I think your watch is a few clicks away.

That's what i was thinking too

So I ended up buying one from AT&T. When the Verizon rep scanned the IMEI it said invalid. From what I've heard you have to put a SIM in that's already activated for it to work. Some Verizon Reps will do it, some won't. I'll keep you posted as to what I end up doing. I'm happy with it, without LTE.
UPDATE: I put in my SIM out of my tablet, and everything is working as it should.

Huawei Mate 20 pro Canadian discussion thread

This is looking to be an epic phone guys. ??? Mine is already pre-ordered since this morning. Who else is getting this bad boy? What feature's got you most excited?

I'm getting it! Pre-ordering tomorrow through Bell. I'm excited about everything to be honest. I've been strictly with LG the past few years and have been making a ton of themes for it so I'm looking forward to a completely new device and experience...and of course to theme it!
But yeah for exciting features I'd have to say the camera is right up there with the in screen fingerprint scanner. I'm reading conflicting reports though about the ir feature. Some say it works as an it blaster to control a tv and some say it doesn't and just does the facial recognition thing. If it does do the tv function then that will also be something I love!

Mark Bencze in the house! Now you got me even more excited. Yeah man I remember rocking your themes on my LG G7 thinq which was a low key awesome phone btw. But yeah prepare to be amazed if the mate 20 is better than the p20 were in for a treat. I remember finishing work at 5 with 86% battery. That phone was beast. Anyway you give me even more reason to be looking forward to that phone. I always have more than one device so let me know if you need a tester. ?

I called Bell today and they aren't doing pre-orders quite yet. Hopefully they do soon so I can get everything taken care of.

Looks like we're the only 2 Canadians getting this phone[emoji23][emoji23][emoji23]

Hola
I am on the fence. Given the screen issues that are reported I want to see what batches we get in Canada. Plus lack of getting bootloader unlock (though not a must have) may be the deal-breaker for me... I wonder if the prices on 2 year contracts will be good on Black Friday.

I am also about to order this phone from Fido, however, only concern is the screen.
Not sure how warranty would work, i want to buy the phone (full price).

So far, all the unboxing videos showed an included transparent case. So I would say yes but I ordered one from Amazon just in case. No pun intended. As far as the official ones, did you try Huawei's website?

Those are solid points. As far as the screen issue goes well you have 15 days to return or exchange the phone. If you wait you miss out on the free Huawei watch 2 (if that matters to you.

I pre-ordered mine on the 26th from Rogers, and just called in today to get an update. Nothing in the system yet, but hopefully they're still ready to deliver on the 7th/8th.
I asked what the return policy was, and she did mention I have the 15 days if I change my mind. I recommend all of you to use it like crazy to detect any of the green screen issues early on!
Let's all keep each other posted on when we receive it and if we notice any issues.

Looks like no freebies from Bell which really bothers me. They're the only ones not offering anything when you pre-order. I'm still grabbing one but I'm disappointed they're not offering anything.

Hola
I am with Fido and they as well are apparently not providing any additional goodies. I will call in and see if they can give up something useful.

bell I was told from a store manager at bell that there was going to be a watch included with a huawei product because my wife was going to get a P20 pro. Wait till the 8th and see what they say. I was also promised a loyalty deal but with their track record I wouldn't expect much

Yeah I called a Bell world store and was told the same thing. They said it's for new activations only though aka 2 year deal and I'm buying mine outright so I likely won't get it unless I get lucky. Fingers crossed. Thursday morning I'm grabbing it!

I would be very surprised if Telus was the only provider offering the smart watch. But still tho, Bell? Seriously? I know you have other options [emoji23][emoji23][emoji23] I hope you all get a free watch[emoji6]

Just got mine, didn't care to get the watch, running it on the virgin network
