    New development. I unplugged the Nook and tried once more to restart by briefly pressing the power button. A logo flashed on the screen showing an uncharged battery and a plug, which I assume is telling me I need to charge the Nook. However, it showed the battery as fully charged when I...

    Thread Dumped Nook HD+ for Lenovo Tab 2 A10

    I tried several different ROMs with HD+, but got frustrated with poor performance. Lenovo is working good so far, but you might NOT want to upgrade from Kit Kat to Lollipop on the Tab 2 as you will lose a little functionality (Dolby Atmos and some display modification options will cease to...

    Post Nook HD+ user experience compared to more recent devices?

    I installed a CM11 nightly. Still having occasional browser crashes and lagginess of back and N buttons. I did not install java or flash as suggested by kokercy, and that seems to improve browser stability. Desdpite its problems, CM11 still seems better than stock, to me.

    Post [Q] Best ROM for HD+?

    I didn't take Wellersl's suggestion and test all the ROMs out there to see how they'd work for my Nook HD+. That would sort of defeat the whole concept of a fourum, and seems like a task more suited to a blog. Still, I did install a CM11 nightly, twice now. The first install worked great for...

    I rooted with CM 10.2, but am getting sick of my browsers crashing all the time. I've tried Chrome and Dolphin. Dolphin seems a little more stable, but, like Chrome, will often crash after 10 minutes of use. Any suggestions on what I might try to get a more stable response from this tablet...

    I tried installing Miui on an SD card using verygreens size agnostic installer. It would go to the splash screen, start to load then revert back to the splash screen and repeat again and again. Anyone have any luck running this ROM on an SD card?

    Post [ROM] MIUI Nook Color 1.9.16

    Is there a reason why the download link on the first page of this post hasn't been updated to MIUI 1.9.2? Also, I concur with other posters that Button Savior is not a great solution for the menu and esc buttons, etc. Is there any plan to rectify this situation?

    OK, never mind. I got it to work. In case some other idiot has the same problem, here is what worked: 1. Press "N" and power buttons simultaneously. Release the power button about 5 seconds after the "Touch the future of read" screen comes on.
