Just as good of a chance at getting Sense UI on any device that isn't HTC. Slim.
[Nook Color General] msgnyc:
Why so slim a chance?

I see custom Sense Roms all of the time for HTC devices.

I'm not meaning getting the NC stock launcher/app onto other tablets, but into Custom Roms for the NC itself.
[Nook Color General] nemith:
They hack up the framework for their custom launcher/apps. Without the source code to their launcher there is little hope for running that on AOSP builds.

Now someone can make a custom 2.2 rom (winzippers) like you see for HTC, but those are not AOSP based. They are also in an illegal grey area....

With the exception of magazines there are a lot of alternatives to the stock reader. I don't see what the obsession with the stock software is.
[Nook Color General] only one haze:
Read to me Kids books is another feature, much more so than magazines (IMO) that makes stock worth holding onto for some, like me, that have children and actually use NC for books.
[Nook Color General] msgnyc:
I like the layout of the stock launcher.

The Magazines are a plus,

The storefront is better then the marketplace nook app and since I do have alot of B&N books It is nice being able to actually read them. Cant with 3rd party readers and the Nook App in the marketplace BLOWs. Especially if you've alot of side loaded books. No cover art for sideloaded books and the layout sux.

I also LOVE the fact that nomatter where I am or what I am doing, there is a page icon at the bottom of the screen that takes me directly back to were I left off in the book I am reading, Also shortcuts that take me directly to the B&N Store or my Library from where ever I am are always present. It is integrated extremely well.

[edited]^^ Read to Me Kids Books is pretty darn cool to. My nieces and nephews love it. :)
[Nook Color General] swears11:
+1, the regular android nook app blows. It doesn't even have a built in dictionary.

Would be great if we could port the nook library/store to other roms.
[Nook Color General] Divine_Madcat:
I am very curious as to why everyone thinks that the new update will make it easier to pull out the custom nook application. As Nemith pointed out, the apps rely on heavily modded framework, which means you can't just grab the APK and go. Despite being a 2.2 upgrade, i don't expect any difference there; the custom launcher shows that they are still heavily changing the Android framework..

I think the bigger issue is the big divide in users. As a tablet user, one of the first things i was happy to get rid of, was B&N's horrific interface changes (notification bar, etc), via CM7 (and Froyo before that). The "Read to me" feature was neat, but certainly not worth keeping in light of the horrible UI. But that is me, since i do not want it as an eReader. I guess others are more ok with it..
[Nook Color General] msgnyc:
Well, it would be "easier" to work on porting from 2.2 to 2.2/2.3 rather then it would be from 1.6-2.2/2.3 as a whole.

Not that it would necessarily be "easy"

I never really had an issue with the B&N interface myself. Well, after installing ADW that is.

That's just user preference. Not everyone likes/dislikes the same thing.

I don't mind my tablet interface being slightly different from my phones.
[Nook Color General] Homer_S_xda:
My plan is to run stock on the EMMC and CM7+ from SDcard. Just need to take the leap and get them to dual boot and share the same Sdcard partition.

Homer
[Nook Color General] corruption42:
Why not just dualboot your EMMC? The process takes no time whatsoever, and it will still run the updated stock without a problem. Flash to stock 1.1, upgrade to 1.2, prep dualboot, migrate stock 1.2 to second partition and install CM7 nightlies unmodified to the primary partition. Its what I do, and what I'm planning on doing when 1.2 is rooted. Seems senseless to me to boot off an SD when you can do it all internally :)

-Wheeled Wonder
[Nook Color General] Mr_Armageddon:
You can only access the large library of "Nook Kids" color books using the stock reader. A few of the Kids titles will load on the B&N Nook app, but most will not as they are made specifically for the stock reader.

Once B&N releases their updated tablet reader app that is supposed to support Nook Kids books like the one for the iPad does, this won't be an issue anymore. So those of us that use the Nook Color (and Nook Kids books) to read to our kids, are stuck using the stock reader. My daughter LOVES the "Read-to-me" feature of Nook kids, and I would not be on her good side if i got rid of it just to run a custom ROM.

I dual boot Honeycomb on my MicroSD card, but the "Nootered" Stock ROM is what I use on a daily basis, as I use the stock reader a lot.
[Nook Color General] tinpanalley:
Does anyone know exactly what's changed in the magazine reading?
[Nook Color General] msgnyc:
No offence to those who duel book their NCs, but I see no point in it whatsoever.

I really dont want to have to continuously reboot my NC just to boot an alternate version of the same OS.

I would much rather have the one. I never have to turn off my NC as is. I rather have everything on the one OS rather then have to boot back and forth just to use what I have on one or the other. Takes no time whatsoever? That does indeed take time everytime you have to power down and reboot back and forth.

I'm just waiting for the official update to be rooted now. XD

[Nook Color General] corruption42:
To each their own -- I was simply providing another route of administration for someone who, unlike you, IS interested in dualbooting. Some of us have a point to it -- for example, I have magazine subscriptions held over from my original nook -- I like reading the things I paid for. Can't read them in the market version of the Nook app. That leaves me with one option: the stock install. However, it doesn't take care of my desire for a tablet operating system. CM7 does that perfectly. You know how long a reboot takes? 45 seconds. Its not the end of the world, and for those of us who DO have a purpose for it, it certainly isn't pointless.

Your comment, however, kinda was. :)

[Nook Color General] msgnyc:
So was your seeing as I said "I see no point in it"

Doesn't mean other people don't have a reason for it.

Thank you for your also pointless post. :)
[Nook Color General] Divine_Madcat:
1.6?? The nook by stock runs 2.1. And i still say that no, it doesn't really make it easier, since we don't have the source code to see what B&N really changed. Sure, we can keep trying to run it, and grab files are we find them, but then you are overwriting other files which isn't desirable. Realistically, the only way we are safely porting the apps, is if:

1) B&N's app stops relying on modded framework; everything is neatly tucked in the apk

2) We somehow got B&N's Froyo source code (which they are under no obligation to release) and see what is being used and how to put it in CM7 code.
[Nook Color General] msgnyc:
Bleh, my mistake on that one. lmao

I see where you are coming from. Still doesn't hurt to ask what the chance of it happening are. Know what I mean. Answers to questions are always a good thing. ;)
[Nook Color General] corruption42:
Nein -- you see, my original post was constructive and provided an alternative option. Your post provided negativity and nothing to add to the conversation. Mine had a point :D

Either way, as long as we all own the most cost effective tablet on the market, its all gravy :D

-Wheeled Wonder
[Nook Color General] msgnyc:
Not only is it the most cost effecitive, imho it is also the ideal size. I hate how everyone keeps making these 10" tabs now. I love the fact that I can just slide the NC into my coat pocket and go. All the new 10"ers you need to carry around as if they were freaking laptops. lol

I'm currently torn however between the HTC Flyer and the upcoming ASUS Memo. The Stylus input alone sells me on those units. In all honestly, I've yet to find any tablet that can effectively replace my TC1100.
[Nook Color General] Canadoc:
I am currently running dual boot on emmc with CM7 on primary partition and autonootered 1.1 on secondary.

Made a Clockwork backup of the cm7. How could I take that and flash it onto an SD to have a bootable CM7 on sd card and share the sd remaining space as you say?
[Nook Color General] corruption42:
Agreed 100% -- the IPS LCD and the size were the deciding factor for me, hands down. Wife has an iPad, and beyond the fact that I don't like iOS, I *HATE* the size. I can't explain it other than its awkward in the hand.

Now, to bring us back to relevance -- I'll at some point (once its rooted) update my nook to use 1.2 as the secondary boot, w/ CM7 on the front... but I really wish B&N would just treat it like an uninhibited tablet. They're starting it with the new marketing around this upgrade, but their sales at the price point would boost significantly, I believe, if they were to treat it more along the lines of a full fledged tablet w/ reader capabilities beyond market apps.

[Nook Color General] corruption42:
Eh.... not so much this, specifically -- more than likely if we get a source release for 1.2, that should help.

-Wheelie McNugget
[Nook Color General] neodorian:
I agree. I used to have a Toshiba convertible tablet and being able to write, draw, take notes, etc. was the best (before I broke it). The only sucky part was that I had to flip the keyboard around to do any real typing. A good tablet with both capacitive screen for touch/type and an active digitizer for drawing and notes would be ideal for me.

My only concern with the new Android tablets is that like Wimax or HDMI or any of the fancy non-standard hardware on my Evo, a digitizer will not be part of the standard AOSP Android and will probably not be in any Cyanogen or other legal ports of newer versions of Android. I love being able to count on someone porting the newest versions regardless of whether the hardware manufacturer or phone carrier, etc. think it is worth their time and money.

I worry that a Flyer will be stuck on HTC Sense ROMs for a while if I want to use the fancy digitizer and I have no desire to ever run an HTC Sense ROM again.
[Nook Color General] sabinblitz:
Was curious about this as well. I'd imagine nothing bad would happen, but confirmation would be appreciated.

Can a tablet such as the one you mentioned detect multiple amounts of pressure?
[Nook Color General] aludal:
The only

real

update in 1.2 for me is working Flash. If someone remembers we don't have it from the first CM 7 nightly to the current CM 7.0.2. Some details of current video playback status on NC could be found in my blog.

Long story short: anyone adventurous enough (and with NC running this stock update 1.2) could help a lot to this community by a little experiment:

-- adb pull [....]/system/Flash/libflashplayer.so out of this 1.2 release;

-- adb pull [....]/system/Flash/libflashplayer.so out of your current CM7 for backup;

-- adb push [....]/system/Flash/libflashplayer.so of the 1.2 into NC with CM7.

Sure, I know, it's a tweaked Flash version that can work even on the Froyo level (stock Adobe Flash Player never did), but there's a chance still. In fact, a lousy 5...15 fps inline Flash playback is the only major reason that CM7 is not so great on NookColor. (there's another reason here though: lack of 2D/3D UI hardware acceleration, but it might be not even possible before AOSP 3.0.1)

Out of other improvements, has anyone notice a better (max) volume? Kinda important, at least for voice reading of kids books.

Yeah, as I said, a working Flash is very important. Pity if our CM7 (NEON) framework won't be able to accept that working libflashplayer.so.

No, Steve said that the good size for a tablet is 10".
[Nook Color General] dalingrin:
To be fair CM7 has had *working* flash since the first nightly. I haven't tried it yet but the B&N Froyo may contain a version of Flash that is optimized for OMAP procs. This is not available to the general public. I get the impression that the OMAP optimizations will be worked into the official Flash at some point. Some details about the OMAP flash can be found on TI's website. I cannot distribute the version of Flash found in B&N Froyo with CM7. If you want to use it that is fine but you'll just have to do it yourself.

I think I'm going to break hardware overlay purposefully so you can see the difference. Maybe then you'll believe we have a functioning overlay.

Flash official 2.2 update using adb or other means

I bought my unit with the official 1.1 software on the device and didn't root it because that is my wife's book reader. But I played with Nookie Froyo on an external SD card and thought that when I remove the SD card, everything is original. However, I think that ClockworkMod was installed on the EMMC in the process and I was not aware of it. This morning I downloaded the update 1.2 from BN put the file on sdcard. The device rebooted itself into recovery mode, tried to unpack the update and then failed with signature verification. I tried to disable the signature verification but the recovery does not find the update file. The only thing I could do was rebooting back into the 1.1 software.

Can someone give me a link to a method to force to flash the device with the new update 1.2? I have CM7 on the external SDcard and can boot into it and use ADB. I don't need to reserve anything on the device because the books are all saved.

Thank you.
[Nook Color General] aludal:
Yeah, I was wrong: no manipulating with libflashplayer.so (OMAP version) would help if the B&N code for Flash is based on 2.6.32 kernel.

And sure, overlay is functioning just fine on CM7, no need to break anything. I only hope that with the advent of new kernel this code can be incorporated (just for NC, as the rest of CM7 devices most probably won't benefit anything):

The list is taken from OMAP3 git where the source code is freely available: http://git.omapzoom.org/?p=platform/hardware/ti/omap3.git;a=tree;h=refs/heads/gingerbread;hb=gingerbread
[Nook Color General] darchenwar44:
Have you checked the following:

http://forum.androidcentral.com/bar...5414-how-restore-nook-color-rooted-stock.html

It should get you back to stock 1.0.1, then you should then be able to update to 1.2.
[Nook Color General] ADude:
You do not put a B&N update on the SD card - you put it on the top level of the eMMC (not in a folder). The directions are on the B&N site. You use the USB wire to see the eMMC as a device in your PC/laptop.
[Nook Color General] poofyhairguy:
Completely understandable. Hopefully you won't mind if the B&N Flash is distributed on the side, as I know most CM7 users want better Flash support.

I actually hope that the Flash in the update DOESN'T use the DSP, since it is obvious that unless we port Motorola's Gingerbread Opencore implementation we can't make use of the Froyo Nook Color codecs. From the videos of the update it seems like Flash doesn't have any DSP support (way too choppy for that), which is a blessing.

I have a final on Wednesday holding me back, then I fully plan to install the update just to rip out the B&N Flash to see if it works with our CM7 ROMs.
[Nook Color General] Divine_Madcat:
Just for more reference, looking into B&N's update, there is no system/flash/.. Perhaps it is generated after installation; who knows...

Now, in system/lib/, there is a libflashhwrenderer.so ...

Now, i don't see the libflashplayer.so, so i am guessing it may be something that is created when the system is setting up (from the .apk perhaps)?

It could be done... you could just install CM7 the restore your data partition... to get Gapps and other system apps would be trick as you would need to manually grab files as you wouldn't want grab all the /system files as not sure all refernces to either eMMC or SDcard would be properly associated if you did... but I'm afraid it would be risky... probably doable but I would suggest making backups at each step till you get it right...
[Nook Color General] dalingrin:
If they didn't include the OMAP specific version of flash then libflashhwrenderer will just go unused.
