    Post Should I buy a Nook HD+ for playing 1080p MKV files?

    The screen is 1080 and looks lovely with full HD material :) Sent from my D5503 using XDA Free mobile app

    Post Should I buy a Nook HD+ for playing 1080p MKV files?

    I routinely use my Nook HD + for watching movies on the train. I do a five hour trip and often have 50% leftover watching stereo 720p. 1080p with DTS eats more battery but still over 5 hours. I use a cyanogen mod 12 rom. I highly advise getting rid of stock rom. Volume is acceptable but I'd...

    Post z1c plastic back replace with a glass one(with pic)(fix flash bleed)

    I found that after applying the new back, I left it under a pile of books. Only residual heat from removing the plastic back. The soft paper of the book made I nice smooth even compression. Sent from my D5503 using XDA Free mobile app

    http://www.witrigs.com/oem-anti-shatter-film-for-sony-xperia-z1-compact Says it's OEM, despite there's no Sony logo. If it was me I'd ask.

    Post Audio playback via USB DAC (CM10.2)

    Excellent, I'm glad I'm not the first person to try this!! I'm thinking of a new DAP, and looking at the iBaso DX50 or Fiio X3, I see both of these can act as USB-DACs. I use my Nook HD+ as semi-portable movie screen and think the sound could do with a bump in quality to match the visuals. Any...

    Post Z1 Tempered Glass Protection - all data I could find

    Thanks. It's pretty expensive but if it does the job then that's great. I have to say though the ASF has caused me far more grief than I would ever have expected. I've never had a scratch on any other phone (Desire, One X) yet the ASF is soft and can scratch, and thus needs a protector. If I...

    My plastic back also creaked loads with any amount of flexing. I've changed to the glass back and there is no creaking now :good:

    Post Z1 Tempered Glass Protection - all data I could find

    I'm another with a scratched Nilikin. I'm going to replace with another brand. Any stand out favourites? Sent from my D5503 using xda app-developers app

    Post Z1 Tempered Glass Protection - all data I could find

    I use the Nilikin kit. The front is good, doesn't overlap the edges and is bevelled. The film for the rear was a different matter, I was forever catching the edge with my finger, and over time it started getting caught on my pockets etc. I put up with it until I swapped the back out for a glass...

    I'd imagine it voids the warranty! I guess you could put a plastic back back on before sending to repair? Sent from my D5503 using xda app-developers app

    Bit expensive compared to Witrigs, no? Sent from my D5503 using xda app-developers app

    Post z1c plastic back replace with a glass one(with pic)(fix flash bleed)

    When sticking down my glass back, I super smoothed all around the edges, then left the phone under a pile of books for twenty minutes! I haven't tested the waterproofing , but then I didn't fancy doing it before I modded either. On a related note the glass back does get scratched, I reckon t...

    Post Sony Z1 Compact screen protector & tempered glass list

    An update on my Nillikin protector. I'm not happy with it. It achieved 3 fine hair scratches in a day despite being in a soft velvet (don't ask!) phone cover. Not deep at all but visible and tactile. And this morning after removing the phone from my pocket the edge of the protector has some...

    Post z1c plastic back replace with a glass one(with pic)(fix flash bleed)

    I'd say no: it is sticky but it's no longer smooth and even. I wouldn't trust it. Sent from my D5503 using xda app-developers app

    Post [Nook HD/HD+] EMMC CM11 install - updated 11/29

    Steady Eddie, just making a comment. If this isn't your first rodeo then you'll know from experience my comment was correct. It sounds like you probably will be able to solve a lot potential issues yourself, especially if this in't your first rodeo, and therefore it's not an issue. I see a...
