Need help from a real NC user! I need to know if it can... - Nook Color General

1) play accelerometer 3d games
2) play video including YouTube
3) flash 10.1 video on browser
4) wifi capable if tethered off my mytouch 4g.
I know it would need root and custom rom.
Is it easy as rooting a mt4g. Thanks in advance

1) Yes
2,3) With Froyo, yes you can play flash video (AKA, youtube).
4) I tether my nook to my Incredible all the time, no problems.
Your best bet is to try out one of the current Froyo builds on an SD cards, so you don't have to mess with changing the stock OS at all..

Thanks...hooked on mipeliculagratis dot com. Requires flash 10.1 and free movies on demand. Might pick up NC on payday.
Thanks again.... have u played need for speed shift on it?

Heads up on the games...the accelerometer works, but it's less sensitive than most phones, and that can affect gameplay. I've noticed some games can be trickier due to it's responsiveness. But on the whole, yes, it works fine for motion-based gaming.

i have asphalt 5 on my nook, it runs great, and so do the accelerometer controls. the best example i can think of is HAWX, which is also a great motion controlled game that runs with no problems on my nook

[Q] Games for 2.3

So, now that gingerbread has been released and the fact that it was "geared towards gaming", have we even seen ANY games released specifically for it? I've tried googling, looking in market, etc, etc, etc. but anything I search on google returns nothing but news about the release of gingerbread and anything i search on market returns...nothing.
I'm deployed overseas right now and some new games would be pretty awesome to tinker around with.
I haven't noticed any new for gb games, but I have noticed that a few games that I couldn't play on my aria/froyo due to fc issues now run flawlessly on cm7.

are you able to play "gun bros" i cant firgure out why its not playin ..i think its time for a new phone
.
Aria is not the best gaming platform as many of the good games uses ARMv7 instructions while our beloved Aria has just a ARMv6 cpu :/
One thing I have noticed is that I cannot run Need For Speed Shift on CM7. I could run it with no problems on CM6 but it shows the splash screen and then shuts down. I tried reinstalling it several time, and nothing. Has anyone else tried any graphics intensive games on CM7? NFS is the only one I have.
Every other game runs just fine. Robo Defense Full ran just fine on CM6 and just as good on CM7 for me.

Psx emulation

I am having trouble getting psx4droid working, I have the right settings,bios, and the.bin file is valid, but ia attempt to load it and it restarts back to the file tree....
So I downloaded, FPse, and to my surprise, it works! So I guess my question is, which one is better? Is psx4d worth trying to fix?
Thanks for any advice!
Sent from my Liberty using XDA App
if it ain't broke, don't fix it.

How did you get fpse to work without lag?
Cm7+overclock+(no game sound )= no lag...
Sent from my Liberty using XDA App
Where do you get your roms from?
Not here cause piracy is bad.
I have an assload of PlayStation games, I just want to know where he got them from. Roms are legal if you actually own the game, which I do.
If you have them you can rip them using programmes like ISO buster.
You'll get an iso file and that's the rom you need.

Thank you
FPse seems better to me. I tried PSX4Droid and it was much slower than FPse. FPse rocks!!
Yeah, psx4droid used to be terrible...but: now its available for free on the developers website
The version isn't the same as on the market: its version 3.
Surprisingly it performs about as good as fpse and graphics are better (even with anti aliasing off). But: You only can enable auto frameskip and not manually choose the amount of skipped frames. Furthermore the menu is a bit buggy.
But since it's free why not give it a try?

Veetle on Android (working well in g tablet)

Hi guys, just thought I'd share my findings. Not sure if many here use veetle but here goes.
So it was the FA Cup final (soccer?) over in england and I can't get a decent steam over here in asia. Thus I turned to veetle. Veetle plays on my g tablet with flash 10.3. But video is a bit choppy. I'm on tnt 4.4.
To overcome this, I searched the net and found a "fix".
Heres what you need to do:
1) Get dolphin hd browser (not sure if setting user agent is available on stock browser)
2) Get vplayer from market (if not available, search online for apk)
3) Go to settings in dolphin browser and set user agent to Iphone (not ipad).
4) Visit veetle.com and stream away. The video should open the vplayer and stream the .m3u8 format from there.
Note: vplayer is a paid app. Free version is a trial for seven days. I bought the app on my desire hd and ported over. It did not appear on my g tablet market. (using olympus build prop). And watching on copy righted content on veetle is not strictly legal but I'm a poor student and theres no decent feed here.

Dead Trigger working like a charm

I noticed that it's free now in the play store and wanted to share that with you.
Was playing it for a 30min, and I didn't found any bug/lag.
Graphics are automatically setted to low but it's playable on normal too.((Haven't tried something higher)
So, just go to play store and grab it.
Apk is about 7mb and you have to download additional data to sd that is ~115.
I hope I helped.

Thanks for the tip, downloading right now
thanks, I will give a try.
Just tried it. Works pretty well.
do you find the multi touch such as turning while assuming laggy? I'm wondering if it's just me.
Sent from my NexusHD2 using xda app-developers app
I can't play that on HD2 after having played it on tegra3 LG Optimus 4x hd... Gameplay is still boring but now it lacks the awesome graphics
Just my 2 cents.
None of the multi touch games work well on our hd2s.

Got it working like a charm on my Tmous hd2, low graphics tho , when set to medium it can chuckle up a bit, so just keep it low to have it smooth :3

Just bought the HD+. Will get Tuesday. Good performance?

So my plan is to immediately put the CM10.1 on this tablet.
I mainly watch movies, read books, browse the web, and play a few games. But not too many games.
Will this tablet give me great performance in general? Or is it going to be limited? What kind of snappiness do you guys have with yours?
For what you will be using for the tablet performance should be perfect with room to spare. The Nook HD+ is a pretty solid tablet, only problems I've encountered are some minor touch sensitivity issues and a little bit of lag here and there but with some tweaking and customization it works pretty well.
Had mine since Wednesday. Great for watching TV/movies (avi/mp4).
Good for reading the web.
Great for comics.
Not got around to reading via the Kindle app.
Plays music fine.
Really enjoying it, but just like previous poster some touch sensitivity issues.
Well, I guess I will just need to try it for a bit and see if I am happy with it.
Hey I noticed that with it stock there are "incompatible" apps from the play store. Fandango for instance. If I put CM on it, am I still limited or is the buildprop edited so we can actually download these apps

No, most that say incompatible will still be incompatible on CM10.1. Your option is to download on another device, transfer the apk to the HD+, enable unknown sources on CM10.1 and install them. They usually run.

Actually, I just did CM to mine. My benchmark before was around 9000, with CM it went to over 10000.
And I found that several 'incompatible' apps became compatible. MLB At Bat works (only for radio, TV can't find my location). Also, a widgets app, iheart radio, and a couple others suddenly became compatible as well. But as they say, your mileage may vary. Of all the apps I have, the only one that is still incompatible is the Nook app... go figure! :laugh:
I can careless about the nook app. I honestly don't read much. I really bought this just because I got it so cheap

For reading of pdf books I suggest OrionReader, simple and smooth as hell.
For video MxPlayer could handle 720p animes on hd+
Really satisfied with the hd+, definitely a bargain to me
I am so glad you mentioned OrionReader. I use my Nook for reading music scores while playing piano and couldn't find an app that moved fast enough while turning the pages. Now I'm all set!

You're welcome Another good thing about it is you can customize behaviours for different tap zones, very convenient
