So I recently flashed CM7 and I have had some time to download all my apps and get things configured I came up with some questions and had a bit of a boot loop issue.
Ill start with the boot loop issue. A few days ago I noticed while on charge it just kept booting over and over. I have this happen from time to time on my rooted Eris with CM. No biggie I just unplug and things work themselves out. But not with the Nook. I turned it off and powered back on but its just kept booting. Sometimes it would make it to the desktop and then reboot, sometimes it wouldnt make it past the splash screen before rebooting, and sometimes it would make it to the desktop and I get an ADW Launcher error then it reboots. I followed the same procedure I followed when I originally flashed it and its been 3 days now working just fine. This time I only downloaded the apps I really needed and I currently have no SD card in it. The one I used before was the same 8 Gig card I used with Nookie Froyo (Can that card just be formatted within CyanogenMod or do i need to format it on my pc?). So Im thinking maybe that was the problem? But then I found this thread. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1043623&highlight=cm7+boot+loop Someone mentions an issue with the battery going dead. That could be it as well because it did die out just before I put it on charge that night. Any thoughts? Like I said I already reflashed just hoping I can avoid that from happening again. Im keeping track of downloaded apps and changes while testing atleast a day before doing more.
Next up is the Notification Bar. Are there any options for changing the color or maybe even the icons themselves like the WiFi, Battery, Notifications Buttons. I like the icons themselves just fine but hate how they are not all one neutral color. I like to change themes but always feel like I need to match up with something green.
So whats the deal with Wallpaper? My Eris has handled every size wallpaper Ive thrown at it. Beautifully if I may add. But the Nook struggles. Ive read some on the subject here and thought I had a decent solution when I was running Nookie Froyo but things are different on CM7. The only way I found to get decent resolution is using the browser to Google search wallpaper and setting wallpaper from within the browser. As you can imagine you dont always get the crop you want. Do I really have to crop every wallpaper specifically for my Nook or is there an easier way?
Overclocking. Boy its been a lifesaver for my Eris but im not sure about the Nook. I was impressed with a score of 1629 at the stock 800Mhz. But I wonder....was that score legit? I ran a bunch of tests back to back and they went something like this 1450, 1527, 1549, 1532, 1596, 1612, then the 1629. With the exception of that one time every test got a better score. Now when overclocked to 925 my best score was 1634 after 6 runs the first was in the 1300 range. I changed the CPU setting within CyanogenMod Settings but I wonder if I need to clear cache first? I was also looking into downloading Dalringrins kernals but can I just add his kernal to the card I used to flash CM7 originally and just flash the kernal? Or do I need to start all over?
Video and streaming video? Whos running a slick video streaming setup over their home network? What are you using and can it be an all in one setup including support for my Nook, Eris, PS3,and various laptops? Ive purchased some harddrives for movie storage but I dont want to rip my DVD collection in some specific format thats only good for one device. Id also like to load some movies and shows right on my SD card for times when I may be away from a connection. What do you guys suggest? My research has turned up many different formats and resolutions. Its been difficult to piece it all together.
I realize this is alot and much of what Im asking may be buried here in these forums but this thread will serve two purposes. To help me organize and speed up the process of getting my setup functioning the way I want. This post also in know way means ive given up on any of this. Im still working on all of it on my own. Researching and testing as time allows.
CyanogenMod-7.0.2
CWM-3.0.0.6
Well, as far as wallpaper goes, the perfect size ratio for wallpaper seems to be 1200 x 1024 at 169 ppi (pixels per inch). Gallery, Quickpic, and other image apps I've used crop to that ratio.
Gallery does some weird quality degradation (or it's resizing it) so my test image looks a smidge less sharp than it does setting wallpaper in Quickpic, for example. It looks absolutely crisp at those dimensions when set with Quickpic or Zeam (when Zeam is default wallpaper agent, it automatically expands crop tool for entire image at this size/ratio).
I've been saving my wallpapers at 1200x1024 (169 ppi). I'm not sure how it would affect your wallpaper if you've used an app like LCDDensity to change the Nook's pixel density from the default (169ppi).

Quickpic is exactly what I needed. Works great!
Im gonna start looking into the VideoLan links tonight. Is this something you use? Im familiar with VideoLan but I remember having difficulty with their software before. I think it was when I was trying to stream from a TV tuner in my desktop over WiFi. Probably not the fairest situation to form a judgment.
Since My OP Im 90% sure I got stuck in that boot loop described above because the battery went dead. Mainly because I did it again but this time on purpose. I now have two Nook chargers. I dont think it would have been an issue again but now theres no chance. Anyone have a car charger?
Im also not going to mess around with overclocking for awhile. I realized lately. It runs great whats the point in rushing?
I'm downloading it right now. So all who have updated it, please say something about the new features in 3.1.... Trust me, it will help a lot of people.
It now has exchange email setup!
Youtube 720p video playback has greatly improved. Using the test video prior to 3.1 I was getting around 9-12 fps, now I'm getting 29-32 fps.
USB mouse works now;
Two new readers (Kobo and Zinio)... Extra bloatware... Awesome! :s
In the browser options, you can switch between tablet or desktop mode (I don't know if this was in 3.0 or not, but I didn't see it)
Also, in the browser, if you use quick control, you now have more options, including switching tabs right from the quick control, and closing tabs from the quick control) You can also choose to enable/disable google instant through the labs option.
** also, the list of open apps is bigger now.... not just the last 4 open apps show up
bangali bhai -
a quite notable feature is that now the widgets are resizable
ps3 controller support
new keyboard sounds
GPS fix locks in 10 sec without wifi
Many Changes
List of changes below
Wifi shows upload download
Additional support for other video formats
speed and performance is improved
lots of bugs cleared
auto reboot and shutdown bug not there atleast from the last 12 HRs.
Settings - Storage shows more in depth info
Browser improvised
Movie Studio added
Kobo Reader and Zinio Reader added
No Lags while Scrolling from other than standard landscape mode
Social Jogger widget and Nemo player Widget added
Wallpaper picker updated and setting wallpaper shows landscape and portrait optimization
Not sure if there is an actual measurable difference, but the whole tablet feels 'snappier' and more responsive, at least in my informal testing. We'll see if this is just me feeling optimistic and wanting to see things improved or if there's a legitimate boost in performance, though.
I just really hope that Acer managed to handle the issues I was having with frequent hanging with the screen on (but on the lock screen) when charging, and with the tablet powering down completely (rather than the usual 'sleep') when left to charge overnight. Having a device I can just pick up and use without waiting for a boot sequence is the bulk of why I went for a tablet in the first place...
They seem to have been pretty good about addressing issues with updates, it's just the question of when said updates show up.
Also, Android Movie Studio (think iMovie or something- very basic at first glance, but seems quite functional so far) and Videos are new to the app list.
Also got my update just in the last hour. Overall device seems snappier and USB mouse support is nice. I can also confirm that the Youtube Video Rental app comes with the update.

Small point I know but it now appears that if you update apps in Market, once they are updated you now have option to uninstall the update.
The official new features list for Honeycomb 3.1 (outside of Acer updates)...
http://developer.android.com/sdk/android-3.1-highlights.html#UserFeatures
I still cant see a safe way of removing from USB other than powering down?
Differences/Improvements I noticed.
1. When you are in Market and you enter an app to download or view and you go back to previous page you go back to were you were in app selection instead of the top of the app page (which sucked ass in 3.01)
2. UI transitions obviously, but except from vertical lag it is also pretty 'laggy' when you turn it upside down.
3. Faster startup of albums thumbnails and zoom and double tap is lightning fast.
4. Website scrolling and 2 pressure point zooming is lightning fast.
5. GPS locks faster
6. Emails come instantly, dunno if anybody noticed but in 3.01 the emails would not appear as fast they did in example hotmail tray.
7. Youtube plays videos flawlessly, 720p smooth as **** thru a goose.
8. 720p MP4 can be played but not VERY smooth, MKV can be played too but with no sound. The other HD videos that I usually play I encode with Handbrake using zoom setting but it sux ass to have to convert 720p movies that should play smooth.
9. I may be dreaming but sound seems better, louder and clearer. May be my imagination.
Then there is all the obvious changed of course. I'll add more when I remember more.
Cheers!

Couple of Differences in 3.1 Update
Got the update this evening in the UK
Couple of things I've noticed:
Acer Lumiread application has improved interface. This may be considered bloatware by the masses but I really like this compared to the alternatives.
As well as this the Landscape mode now allows 2 page reading something similar to ipad Also seems a lot smoother which actually is a massive improvement. There were a few bugs with this with the leaked chinese build that came out last week but these all seem to have been remedied in this version 4 build.
Improvement in GPS lock speed. I didn't really have a massive issue but now seem to be able to find around 10 sats vs 8 indoors with 3.01 stock and leaked build. .
Desktop Mode on Browser settings. Is it just me or does this actually do anything?
I've only tested it on the bbc website but it's still recognising my device as a mobile device even when desktop mode is set or when UAString is changed. All this mode seems to do is break bbc iplayer . Anyone else in the UK notice this?
Market shows incompatible apps: I've noticed quite a few gameloft games now showing up in the app which upon trying to purchase I get a "your device is incompatible" message. Previously i wasn't shown applications and games that were incompatible.
web browsing is a lot smoother. no fc so far (fingers crossed)
Pictures are much sharper in Picture Frame widgets !
Thank God they took out Cell Standby My Battery Last Longer.

So Far I Have Found
- Default Apps Will Not Stick
- Custom Ringtones Do Not Stick
Anybody found anything else?
I have no problems with them, nore do I have it on my s3, but both of those are reported by others on the s3 too (but not by too many people).
I imagine its a mixture of something you ahve installed, or the way your setting them that differs from people like myself who are having no issues at all.
first thing i noticed.
opening browser and looking at a webpage using video (HTML5) and close it. the audio from the video continue in the background although all windows are closed, and only way to kill it is closing wifi.
but maybe its just a onetimer.

Not out to find fault with the devices , i love it , but these things should work ideally ie. replacing existing ringtones on /system/media, but it doesnt
1-Quick controls on the Browser are not precise and the X button in it either missing or not working properly.,the one on my Galaxi Tab 10.1 are much better.
2-The rebranded stock Swype Keyboard is not good.on my original Mote worked great,I use Swype all the time.
3-On the Lock Screen cant change the location of the Clock while with ICS it was possible,I preffer the clock on the bottom of the lock screen since pulling it slightly from the Napa cover will reveale the time.
4-The music sound with the Earphone is very low and the Equalizer doesnt help at all to raise the volume as it was the case with N1.
5-Both in the Gallery or the Camera app every time touching the picture a manue of picture thumbnales appear at the buttom blocking the view which is very annoying due to limited screen size.
6-Tap and Rotate the Lock Screen to open the Camera application is very buggy and doesnt work all the time.
7-Scrolling in the stock Weather App is instant without any transition or animation which sort of reminds me of my old HD2 Windows Mobile.
So far these..
I found that all my videos which were on the SD card was not being detected by the default video player unless i moved them to the Internals SD
Dont know if this is a fault with my Firmware or everyone

Installed Lollipop last night and a few things that I found are working/not working. Let's get a list going here.
1. H+ icon no longer shows up. (ATT)
2. Feels like a new phone performance wise.
3. Home Launcher App no longer seems to work. (https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.dynamicg.homebuttonlauncher&hl=en)
Cast screen option is now available in the notification pull down, but it still doesn't recognize the Chromecast.
ART uses a lot more space for apps, so a microSD card is now a must. Probably why Moto added it.
Camera doesn't seem to have any improvements. Not worse, but I'm not seeing anything better either.
Sometimes specific apps (like Skype for example) don't seem to use both speakers leaving the sound very quiet.
Screen pining option in security is awesome

Hey, I'll paste the questions I leaved in a thread I created but doesn't seem so popular:
First and foremost, I'm curious about the new memory management in this Release. As you can see in this threads 1 XDA Thread 2 (Official Motorola Forums one) the problems with RAM management in KitKat were MASSIVE.
- How do you feel it is as of right now? It's still there? It's a little better?
- How does the CPU respond? Could you run an Antutu Benchmark to compare with KitKat?
- I know it's a little early to ask, but I'm curious about Project Volta. Do you notice more battery life?

Have noticed performance improvements? Such as better memory management, improved responsiveness, faster app loadings etc. ?
On 4.4.4, I can't run Facebook and Chrome simultaneously without one getting kicked out of memory

What about battery usage? Does the application optimizing occur at every boot?

100% at 8am. Was down to 10% around 2:30PM after heavy usage. Definitely not real world use. Mostly playing around with Lollipop.
Application optimization does not happen at boot like it did w/ ART on 4.4.4.
I'd like to note, it took my phone nearly 45 minutes to upgrade from 4.4.4 > Lollipop.

It would appear your lolly got well and truly licked...

Can you test some more things, like a benchmark or something just to see, and more impressions about the lag of open the menu?
I waded through all the spam and robotically dubbed crap on YouTube, and FINALLY found someone who's actually bothered to make a brief video... so here it is:
Has anyone else noticed not being able to access the camera from the lockscreen on Lollipop?
My thoughts on Lollipop 5.0:
-Booting the phone takes about 30 seconds. I have a lot of apps on the SD card, and they take a while to become available. Perhaps 2 minutes. I had to move a lot of apps to the SD card to get room for the update, so I can't compare before and after times for finding apps on the SD.
-When the phone was updating to Lollipop it said it optimized 105 apps. It does not optimize on every boot. I'm pretty sure apps on the SD card were not optimized based on number of apps.
-Music (Pandora and Play Music) still stops playing in the background when I launch some apps. The suspected 'memory leak', memory management problem, or whatever the cause, has not been fixed. So no apparent change there.
-If I create an app folder with apps on the removable SD, those apps still do not reappear in the folders when I restart the phone. No change.
-App-specific notifications are awesome. I have 'Subway Surfers' on my phone because my kids like the game. I hate getting notifications every day for an app I don't even play. I have disabled notifications for that app. Definate positive change.
-I use an app called 'Notification Toggle' to add toggles for skipping tracks, camera, battery life with numbered %, turning on wifi and cell data, etc. The Cell Data toggle doesn't work any more, it takes me to a screen that can be used to turn on/off data roaming but not data all together. Hopefully that will be fixed. The notification screen update already gives me another option (see my next comment).
-The pull-down notification menu can be pulled down again to show some settings that partly replace the 'Notification Toggle' app I just mentioned, including turning cell data on/off. It's a nice feature. I wish it were customizable. Definate positive change; it doesn't quite replace 3rd party apps for me, but that's part of the Android customizable experience.
-It takes longer to unlock. The unlock pattern/code input has been replaced by notifications, you need to swipe up before unlocking. Minor change but definitely not an improvement for me.
-Stability and responsiveness are good. I haven't noticed any lag but I don't remember noticing lage on 4.4.
-Battery life? I'm a compulsive phone charger, so I don't know yet. I like the new battery life screen. It shows charge over time like it used to, and it also shows projected battery life. It says I have 10 hours left, after using the phone for about an hour looking at settings, locking/unlocking the phone while on WiFi streaming Pandora.
-Lockscreen notifications have the following settings:
Show all notification content will show content in new text messages and what is playing on Pandora or Play music; in Play Music it lets me skip to the next song without unlocking; I can't change tracks in Pandora from the unlock screen. Annoying change for me.
Hide Sensitive content in Notifications lets me know I got a text but doesn't show the message; I can see what is playing and skip tracks in Play Music but not Pandora
Show Nothing shows... nothing.
I wish I could select which apps would show their content on the lock screen; in my mind what I am playing in Pandora is not nearly as sensitive as what texts I receive.
If I get a text and there are multiple notifications on the lock screen, or if I get more than one text,it won't show the content of the texts. No scrolling to fit more notifications (like the notifications shade). So if you have a lot going on, lock screen notifications become sort of useless, and that's when they might be the most useful.
I used to be able to press the power button and skip to the next pandora track from the unlock screen. Two actions. Now: (1) I press the power button, (2) swipe up, (3) enter the unlock pattern, (4) open Pandora, and (5) skip to the next track. Convenience has suffered.
People will have different opinions, but for me personally the whole lock screen experience is a step backwards. I think there are some simple fixes that could make it very good, and I hope this is a bad start to a good feature (i.e. waiting for 5.0.1).
Memory leak/bug is still there Oh god why

Thanks, I asked if this was the case in another thread, nice to have it confirmed but wasn't the answer I wanted.
From my impression the KitKat lockscreen is perhaps better for people like us (it is for me), you can easily see your notifications but not see any content just the icons at the top, music playback controls are easily accessible and the pattern/PIN is displayed without a swipe.

I can get to the camera app from the lock screen without unlocking, take pics from front and rear camera, shoot video, and view the gallery pics/videos I took from THAT LOCKED SESSION ONLY. I can't see all the other pics/videos on the phone.
A minute later I accessed camera without unlocking the phone again. I could NOT see the pics that I took a minute ago with a locked phone. In other words, if I take pics with a locked phone those new pics are still private, as long as I turn off the screen again. Maybe that's the default Lollipop behavior, but I'm glad it works that way.
Edit: the phone wants to back up the photos that i took with the screen locked. I need to look into this. I deleted those pics i.e. I selected 'delete everywhere'. If someone takes pics with my phone, will they be backed up to online folders/tools that I share? I'm just a simple caveman lawyer, your new technology frightens me. I just copy/save my pics manually, so I don't even understand how backup works. I'm pretty sure backup was turned backup off in Jelly Bean.
Another edit: The Photos app says that backup is for 'my eyes only'. As long as no one can take a pervy pic with my locked phone and share it with the world, I'm ok. Because we all know how safe pics on our phones are.

Sorry, I don't have a thumb drive or otg cable handy. I never heard of the problem till you mentioned it, I guess I don't use thumb drives with my phone.
Different subject:
I connected the phone to my computer with USB debugging turned on, and I got this driver error:
Device driver software was not successfully installed
Motorola ADB Interface X No driver found
It's an old problem and looks like getting the error is expected, but I'm busy at work and can't be bothered to look into it for now. File explorer from the PC works fine. I have other android toys, I don't like messing with my main phone so I don't need ADB anyways. I honestly think I've never even put this phone into USB Debug before today.

Thanks, weird that it's not working for me. If I restart the phone, it will work the very first time I'm on the lockscreen and swipe into the camera, but on subsequent attempt I get a black screen with the icons for switching between front and back cameras and for shooting video, but none of the controls work.

Interesting, that's an inconsistency between out phones. I can enter, exit, and re-enter the camera app repeatedly without unlocking the phone, turn the screen off and on again, and use the camera again without unlocking.

One more thing: the home screen redraw issue still happens, but less often. For example I just used chrome browser briefly, went home and the screen didn't redraw. Same with Play Music.
I loaded Clash of Clans, collected some gold/elixir, donated some troops, went to home screen and the screen had to redraw. Exiting a lightweight game like 2048 does not cause the home screen to redraw (so far). Overall the home screen seems to redraw less often.

Actually, another one more thing:
In settings-->developer options-->Process stats: I got the message "device memory is currently critical" I killed a few apps (including Play store, play music, all the Motorola apps) and got 403 MB ram available. Settings is using 70MB, Notification Toggle is using 3MB, Swipe is using 26MB. I went back to Process Stats and it now says 'Device memory is currently normal". Sorry, I didn't take not of how much memory was available before killing apps.

Reboot:
Unlock screen 50 seconds after pressing power
Widgets active 1 min 15 seconds after pressing power
Apps on SD available in app drawer 2 minutes 30 seconds after pressing power. I have 36 apps on my SD card, it's a 16GB card with 5.4GB available (lots of media) and I believe it's a class 4 or class 6).
On boot I had 408MB ram free. After killing some apps I have 453 MB free; settings using 70MB, Swype 24MB, and Google Search 15MB. MotoCare using 15MB and if I kill it it just restarts. I don't know if Settings always uses RAM or if I get that RAM back when I exit Settings.
How much more space does ART take?
You can try ART on KK... but on my XT1068 Dalvik 2.6Gb free space / ART 2.0Gb free space.
I updated my phone yesterday.
It's now faster. The lollipop is so beautiful.
The only problem is that yes I can't see
H+ icon anymore. Does anyone know what ?

Hello, so I started playing with my new VR. I know some sites seem to have a dedicated VR mode, however I am unsure how it works on youtube? I know once I go full screen, I have options for 360, 180, and couple 3d setting modes, but those do not seem to really look right.
So just wondering what advice might be out there?
Lets say I want to see a Miku concert or something in 3d (kinda like the PSVR has) anyone have an idea? Thanks. =D
Im surprised. No one here uses it more for 3d vids?
I am in the same boat, i dont know how to use it in youtube
The trick used with earlier versions was to start the Google Cardboard app and then place the phone in the headset WITHOUT fully connection the USB connection. This prevents the phone from starting the Oculus app.
You may find better explanations by searching for '"Google Cardboard" "Gear VR".'
Yea but its odd since youtube once you hit full screen, gives you more 3d options. So just kinda wondering.
