The performance was significantly noticable, but not huge. Scanned PDF files loaded faster and was easier to page through them w/o looking at a blank screen, Web pages loaded faster and a game that was near impossible to play because of the lag was smooth and very playable. One thing that I did notice was that I installed the 2.2 on an 8GB SD Card and I decided to make use of that wasted space, the image by default only loads 2GB. When I expanded the SD Card to use the whole 8GB the android device was laggy for a very long time. It was very painful to use. A few days have gone by and now the device is as responsive as the first time I applied the OC kernel. I'm thinking that the android OS must scan the whole disk and spends some time catching in order to optimized the performance. So be warned. BTW If you do overclock your devices, I'd be very interested in hearing improvements on the speed. =X= |

I had trouble with quadrant scores. I am running at 1.1ghz. It kept getting stuck at 11/12 AAC decode, but finally after a reboot it worked and I got a quadrant of 1260, same as a Droid X 2.2 and a little faster than my Evo
![]() Edit: Round 2 I got a 1342 score.. lets run it again ![]() Edit: Round 3 I got a 1335.. So its pretty fast on the quadrant. Ehh its not that bad, and with the excellent developers out there, its getting easier every day. Last edited by volwrath; 02-07-2011 at 05:54 PM. |

The quadrant test does not really expose the slowdowns caused by the class 2 sd card I have. I'm not sure what test does but that benchmark would also be interesting. Yes that was one of the deciding factors for me... and the Super AMOLED screen. I see a huge difference when looking at the nook vs Samsung. Reading on the samsung s is awesome, esp with the night settings. |

I have a question about this-- I'm a historian and so use a lot of heavily bookmarked pdf's which means that the stock Nook PDF reader is nearly unusable. (think 1000 page files).
But I'm nervous, read scared about rooting, so here are my questoins. 1. If I use the Froyo SD card method, is their anyway it might brick the nook, or does it leave the basic nook system untouched, so that if you remove the card everything goes back to normal? 2. When running froyo from the SD card, can you see/access files in the onboard nook memory, documents and books? 3. IS there anything I need to be worried about here? 4. If I root it, and get say, ezpdf, will the performance be good enough to be worth the rooting in reading pdfs? |

2) No, you cannot see the internal memory. 3) No. 4) If you run off the card you do not have to root. But to answer your question, yes for me the nook was not viable as a pdf reader until I rooted the nook. EzPDF is good but repligo is by far the best PDF reader. |
