After you wipe out the b&ns software can u acess the 16gb

[Eddogegr3]

@iphonehackeranddevol You would be talking about the Nook Tablet. This is the Original Nook Color that only has 8GB. I think you can access 5GB of that for personal usage?

I would really love to know what u did to have yours run so smooth as well as the neat tricks i.e. moving controls to the top, the apps, screen motion etc.

[Eddogegr3]

@cmbruno46 A lot of it has to do with overclocking (smoothness) and ADW Launcher tweaks (smoothness) and CM7 Tablet Tweaks setting (moving bar up)

I found a Nook Color for 150 refurbished, is this as good as buying a Xoom? Minus the cameras?

[Eddogegr3]

@heardcountybrave Not to burst your bubble, but no, Xoom is much better. After having a Nook then moving on to a G Tab 10.1, I found apps designed for a Tablet make all the difference. Plus, Dual Core, etc. With that being said, for 150? The Nook is a fine alternative.

@sigularity1 no offense

@sigularity1 haha! shit I didn't even notice that for the first 3 minutes...and now it's bugs the crap out of me.

Still, nice vid. Very informative.

[sigularity1]

The MOUTH NOISES yuck!. Move back from the mic when you need to smack and slosh your tongue around you sound disgusting. What is wrong with you - sounds like you are in my ear with that sticky saliva coated hole you call a mouth.

Thank you for this. It made me decide to move on to CM7.

[BransonM22]

my notification or navigation bar isnt there.. can anyone help please

[n4tune8]

@Eddogegr3 Is there a way you can be more precise as to the customizations? Where are the CM7 tablet tweaks?

[PressOnTV]

Is this safe to do. Is it worth it or should i wait until my nook has aged a bit or what.

[phabedrummond]

I did the cm7 mod and my kids wont give me back my nook! Before they could care less about it. If you look at the nooks specs its still better than alot of more expensive tablets on the market. B&N really handicap the device!

[cmbruno46]

Hey, thanks for your response, its running great! If u don't mind I have another question. I've loaded HBO GO and MAX GO and I keep getting a system clock error. I've checked the system clock and it seems find. Any clue what the problem might be? Thanks again!
