[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Absolute_Zero:
Not sure what "3 step process" you are referring to but I'm gonna say no.

You have recovery. You can clearly flash roms. The roms contain Superuser.apk and su binaries which means THEY are rooted. Flash a good copy of a rooted rom from recovery and you will have working SU.

If that means you have to download another copy of a rom and put it on your sdcard then do it. Point is, roms are "rooted" not the phone. You can't "root" something that doesn't have an OS. Common misconception but I'm leaving it at that.
[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] M@|ice:
Everything is working great now, thank you all for your guidance and support. Love my android community. Can't thank you enough.

Hi, I have google talk w/ video and whenever I am using it people see me sideways. Is there a way to correct this?

Thank you,

[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] SilverZero:
Turn off screen auto-rotate and turn the phone so it's correct?

Official MIUI Released!

1.7.8 (latest beta) for Nook Color here:

http://goo-inside.me/miui/encore/MIUI.us_encore_1.7.8_Eng_Deo_ZipA_Signed_andmer.zip

Really amazing thing. All thanks to @andmer_ and the CyanogenMod team, also any other helping devs. Please give a round of applause!

@andmer I'm sorry that I asked for a ETA earlier. Now I know that's it's very rude.... :(

Also to people who want menu + back buttons:

Flash this. It will make the vol+ menu and vol- back. Very handy. Note that you will have to re-flash this every time there is a new MIUI release.

To the overclockers:

MIUI doesn't have a built in setting for over clocking, so you must download "No-frills CPU control" It's free and it works. Make sure to hit "set on boot" Also if you would like to increase the max speed, flash this and over clock.
[Nook Color General] EverythingNook:
sweet, im making a backup then flashing this!!
[Nook Color General] AidenM:
I know i know I made a backup this morning and now im booting into cwm to flash it
[Nook Color General] AidenM:
and it's flashing....
[Nook Color General] AidenM:
rebooting into it....
[Nook Color General] AidenM:
i know im posting like twitter but im at the boot logo it's awesome...
[Nook Color General] AidenM:
holy crap this is awesome! read crap as Sh**! it rocks!
[Nook Color General] EverythingNook:
what did you wipe before you installed it?
[Nook Color General] neidlinger:
are there sections of the ROM that are in Chinese???

that is my biggest draw back from using MuUi on my Glacier.
[Nook Color General] SCWells72:
For those of us unfamiliar with MIUI, can you post screens of it on the Nook and possibly explain what makes it better than, say, CM7? Also, and of significant importance, does it support soft buttons for things like Home, Back, Menu, etc.? Which kernel does it use, .29 or .32?

Thanks much!
[Nook Color General] neidlinger:
MiUi is based off of CM. It's a skin laid over top of Cyanogen. It's highly customizable with thousands of themes.

It's not "better" or "worse" then CM, but it's different option.

http://bit.ly/oLLldB
[Nook Color General] AidenM:
@EN I wiped everything

@Neidlinger Nope not seeing any chinese parts.
[Nook Color General] EverythingNook:
sweet boot animation!
[Nook Color General] AidenM:
I know!

10 chars
[Nook Color General] EverythingNook:
i like it, it looks real nice but i think im going to stick with CM7 we'll see.
[Nook Color General] AidenM:
Oh also 1.7.8 is out for the Fascinate so the nc release could happen even this evening.
[Nook Color General] EverythingNook:
wifi isnt connecting it stays on obtaining ip

edit: it finally connected
[Nook Color General] AidenM:
Heh I own an iPad.
[Nook Color General] Phatdawg:
I find it rather disparaging that if it is skinned off of CM, that it's not mentioned nor creditted.
[Nook Color General] AidenM:
the core os is off CM7, they heavily modified it.
[Nook Color General] Flussen:
MIUI is not based on CM7. It's its own AOSP (android open source project) build.

CM7 is also based on the AOSP source code so they both have the same base but they are 2 completely different builds.
[Nook Color General] AidenM:
Thanks for clearing that up.
[Nook Color General] siddhantfriends:
MIUI to uSD

can u explain anyway to get MIUI on uSD? will CM7 installer for SD-card work? reply fast fast fast ^_^ test this if possible n give us edified installerrr ^_^

"Sidd
[Nook Color General] AidenM:
Yes I think the cm7 installer will work a lot of my cm7 zips worked (like keysmod)
[Nook Color General] siddhantfriends:
can u test? n wht should be the minimum size of sd-card 1/2/4/8/16/32
[Nook Color General] AidenM:
I'm sorry I don't have a spare sd card but the size should be 3 GB+. 2 GB will do find if you don't have too much data.
[Nook Color General] siddhantfriends:
hmmm....will check out tomorrow

do i've to make any specific changes to d ZIP or it'l install as it is when i put it in boot partition?

with this installer http://nook.handhelds.ru/sdimage/generic-sdcard-v1.3.img.gz

i got 2/4 GB spare right now
[Nook Color General] AidenM:
alright hope it works for you

Also, does anyone know when there is to be the 1.7.8 drop fro NC?
[Nook Color General] siddhantfriends:
ok here is wht i came up with when i made CM7 installer and put d zip in boot partition

so shall i rename it to updatei-cm*.zip or cm_encore_full*.zip

edit01: i renamed it as cm_encore_full*.zip and its installing :) :) :)

edit02: installed and booting! the bootscreen is awesome! :D

edit03: it has booted successfully and it has given NC a "brand new" look :P and i'm tryin' to figure out the features of this firmware. Secondly the installer of CM7 has given it a slight CM7 features to screen animation and screen timeout etc.

It'd be nice if anyone would link me any all in one SD-Card installer or least some SD-Card installer which doesnt change any looks of the firmware.

I will post a new guide how to do this maybe tomorrow thanks for your help :) :)
[Nook Color General] EverythingNook:
can we use the overclock kernel with this rom?
[Nook Color General] crea78:
This ROM is very nice, but since the NC has no back button, it's a little frustrating going to the home screen in order to go to different screens in the same program... like Settings for example.
[Nook Color General] EverythingNook:
softkeys or button savior works fine, but i like cm7's buttons.
[Nook Color General] crea78:
would the honeycomb keys work as well?
[Nook Color General] AidenM:
There is no OC setting so no.... Aw.... But it's slick enough without it.
[Nook Color General] dabiddabird:
not tablet optimized

First off it is nice to see more roms for the nook color. Miui is a nice rom for phones but is lacks a true tablet experience that one can achieve on cm7. It essentially a direct port to the nook color. It does not have tablet tweaks, no soft buttons, and some features do not function properly on the nook. I did install button Savior which at least makes navigating a while lot easier. The lockscreen does not size properly to the nooks screen, even after reboot. This is a first look at miui on a "tablet" and I am sure the development will eventually have a daily usable rom in time. However, for now cm7 offers users the most tablet like experience for the nook.

Thanks for miui development for giving or little tablet that could more options. Awesome work. Looking forward for future releases with tablet enhancements.
[Nook Color General] crea78:
One other question, is there a way to remove the pre-installed icons on the homescreens? Also, I installed Titianium Pro, but it is showing Root as being failed??
[Nook Color General] Rwood1020:
Accourding to the build.prop it's actually based on the CM7 07-02-2011 nightly
[Nook Color General] dabiddabird:
Yea you can move/delete icons. For TB try clicking problems than install busybody see if that helps.
[Nook Color General] crea78:
The reason why I asked about the icons, when I try to move an icon to the trash, it will tell me "unable to remove system application"
[Nook Color General] dabiddabird:
Yea that's thing with miui when you drag the icon to the waste basket it uninstalls the app. You either love it or hate it. You can move unwanted icons to other screens or put them in a folder. Haven't tried it myself but I guess you could use titanium backup to remove them.
[Nook Color General] EverythingNook:
it scaled fine for me, im honestly thinking about trying it again.
[Nook Color General] crea78:
Finally got Titanium to work and froze the apps I didn't want. Thanks
[Nook Color General] dabiddabird:
It did for me too on the included lockscreen, but some of the downloaded ones wouldn't. Maybe with spare parts I could have tried compatibility mode but I didn't lol. Once this rom is polished up I'll definitely try it again.
[Nook Color General] EverythingNook:
to be fair i only had it on for a few minutes, but ill wait to see how the battery is and stuff.
[Nook Color General] Phatdawg:
Well, that means two things.

I imagine once they actually use the encore version as a base build for their Rom, then we'll see more tablet friendly work.

Secondly, again, if they decide to do something like that, I would expect them to credit the encore team in the process at least.
[Nook Color General] theheathen:
I flashed the lastest OC kernal on and I'm able to OC it. I used SetCPU
[Nook Color General] EverythingNook:
thats good to know, hows the battery?
[Nook Color General] theheathen:
Hard to tell but, so far not good. I flashed it off charger at about 10:30 EST when it was at 94%. At 1:15 its at 52% with screen brightness at ~65%, WiFi on.
[Nook Color General] moz90:
love rom but

i use this on my incredible its my favorite rom but its not tablet friendly yet i will for sure try this again when it gets updated its awesome to see my favorite rom coming to the nook

will donate when it becomes stable and better interface for my nook thanks for working on this!
[Nook Color General] MedLine:
have to admit, the gui is very very good, but they're still straight up using one of dalingrin's stock 2.6.32 kernel (see attached) ... and it does deep sleep.

edit: it's also straight up cm7 base right down to fattire's log_battery_data.sh in init.encore.rc for writing to /rom/max17042.bin
[Nook Color General] alton987:
+++

For a first try I thinks its awesome and is so much more polished than CM7 just add soft buttons and I am super happy.

Thanks!
[Nook Color General] ShutterPeep:
I hope credit was given...
[Nook Color General] EverythingNook:
eh ya, im going to come back to this rom later on. its nice but right now its not really ready for the nook.
[Nook Color General] Ophbalance:
I presume Bluetooth is working if this is just a reskin of CM7?
[Nook Color General] alton987:
Feature request until dev forum starts up.

Landscape home screen and built in soft buttons.
[Nook Color General] AidenM:
We should have a sub forum for MIUI in the NC forum. It's really to customized to be a CM7 variation.
[Nook Color General] Divine_Madcat:
Frankly, given that they (like Ultimate Droid) ripped CM7's work (including the kernel); frankly, i think it should be shunned rather than given a forum. Its a complete slap to the encore team to have their work used with not even a mention or credit...
[Nook Color General] rigy73:
I totally agree, this is just a slap in the face of cm7 developers who have worked so hard to make nook what it is right now.

Don't get me wrong i am happy that we are getting more options but this not the way to do it.
[Nook Color General] Phatdawg:
Phiremod gives credit to cm7, and is supported here.

Perhaps, if a representative from MIUI saw the issue at hand, they might realize how important it is to give credit where it is do.

I think it's almost an unwritten rule and code of conduct to acknowledge your open source platform somewhere obvious.
[Nook Color General] RileyGrant:
The miui.us team doesn't use the CM7 work, the guy who ported it did and he doesn't even have a thread yet so you can't really blame him for not giving credit.
[Nook Color General] Phatdawg:
I don't mind if that's the case. It could be cleared up fairly quickly. I imagine someone from their team will address this issue then.

If the software was released under and part of MIUI officially, MIUI now does use cm7 work for the nook.

If you're saying that the guy who ported it didn't have the okay to release it under the current pretenses and MIUI as a whole shouldn't be implicated in this decision, that's one thing.

It's another thing for it to be released, supported in their forum, and not deal with the PR issues that might come about. (i.e. like this one).
[Nook Color General] Divine_Madcat:
Gimme a break. A "MIUI" rom was released right? It has an offical MIUI release number, right? Then it is a MIUI rom; regardless of who released it.

Look, i know CM7's source code isn't a huge secret project, and that technically they aren't doing anything wrong. But the heart of the matter for me, is that what they are doing feels underhanded; i guess i can't speak for him, but i doubt Dal appreciates his kernel used in other roms like this...
[Nook Color General] JBYoung:
@Andmer_ (who ported this) posted this,

"@barczakmark We owe it all to the wonderful cm7 team. Thanks to @dalingrin et al for their hard work making our little nook so special!"
[Nook Color General] Phatdawg:
Thanks for showing us that.
[Nook Color General] RileyGrant:
Hahah no no I understand what you're saying I'm just pointing out that the release isn't even truly official yet so its a bit early to blame. But yes I guess if Dal doesn't want his work used (which seems odd to me since its used practically everywhere else) then he should request it be removed.
[Nook Color General] bdcrim:
Here is the tweet page. Assistance was requested from Dal several days back with video. Regardless of what I think about the rom, the guy looks clean.

http://twitter.com/#!/andmer_
[Nook Color General] dalingrin:
I have no problem folks using my work. It is open source and I try to make everything available for other folks. The only thing I don't like is the general trend of MIUI folks not giving CM7 credit which leads to the uninformed saying things like "MIUI developers are awesome, CM7 devs suck." It hurts the ego and moral. :D This is made worse by the fact that MIUI is closed source. Which is their right given that Android uses the Apache license but I don't have to like it. I have 0 problems with Andmer, who is doing the port. Its simply a matter of principle I suppose.

All that said, I don't hate MIUI like I hate Ultimate Droid. :p
[Nook Color General] RileyGrant:
Hahah thanks dal!
[Nook Color General] Phatdawg:
Just so everyone knows it can be done.

I installed dalgrins latest kernal over the ROM, then put in setcpu and used it for profiling with oc to 1200.

I also used widget locker to get out of the half lockscreen size.

I also used button savior as opposed to soft buttons due to the skins.

I don't like 3 of the major solutions right now, virtual buttons, button savior, or soft buttons.

So far no SOD, random freezes, etc, battery life is appears worse to me.

I have also installed adw launcher ex over the stock launcher.

I basically wanted to see if SOD and random freezes were solved in MIUI, and if so, why?

The odd icon's sizes are kinda annoying as well.

I tried upping the lcd density to 250 but it didn't seem to do anything.
[Nook Color General] alton987:
I booted into recover and did a full wipe and it fixed the lock screen issue. I like the larger icons. I always hated how the icons looked on the nook using other launchers.
[Nook Color General] Phatdawg:
I did a full wipe, system/data/dalvik and it didn't fix the problem for me.

Although, it doesn't matter, I prefer my widget locker anyhow. I really just rethemed it to my personal hub setup that i use for cm7. It looks the same outside of those elements that I can't get, i.e. the softbuttons at the bottom left etc.
[Nook Color General] alton987:
People either seem to love MiUi (like me) or people seem to hate it.
[Nook Color General] AidenM:
I love it.
[Nook Color General] Phatdawg:
I don't have a problem with the stock UI, but it's like sense or motoblur to some degree.

If you are into your own wallpaper and layout, then MIUI is just like any other preloaded bloat launcher to some degree.

What I'm banking on is 1) SOD is gone 2) Random Freezes are gone 3) PBD doesn't occur.

I've already tested the bluetooth, it's the same as CM7.
[Nook Color General] AidenM:
Anyone know when the 1.7.8 will be released?
[Nook Color General] Nburnes:
http://goo-inside.me/miui/encore/

It's there.
[Nook Color General] alton987:
I Wish @andmer would tell everyone where to post bugs and updates
[Nook Color General] andmer:
woah. ok. I had no idea my little pre-release tweet would blow up like this. credit was not given because I had not put out my thread yet, I apologize for that.

I hope it is cleared up, but just to restate I take very little credit for this ROM, it's all CM7 team's work which makes this even possible. I Like MIUI so I hacked and chopped CM7 into a MIUI ROM, that's all.

I did not mean to step on any toes, if so it was unintentional and if my blanket credit is not sufficient, please let me know and I will edit it until everybody is happy or I will just take it down and cease the public port altogether and just do it for my own personal use.
[Nook Color General] DiscoPh3v3r:
Edit: Well this is weird, but AWESOME, it booted up when I held down the power button. :P Seems obvious but I guess it WAS charging but the screen wasn't turning or something. It's booting up fine now. I'll leave my old post up though. Read below for my "problem"

Can someone help me? I let my battery run down all the way on accident and now it won't even boot up when I plug it in.... help???

I did a complete wipe and installed everything new, and now it wont turn on when I plug it in :(

Andmer do you have any suggestions?
[Nook Color General] Phatdawg:
Now, did it boot up after you had to hold the power button down _AS_ if to turn it off, then turn it back on?

Cause that would be SOD.
[Nook Color General] RileyGrant:
Everyone is happy now. Thank you very much for your work man. (:
[Nook Color General] DiscoPh3v3r:
You see, that used to happen on other ROMs that I had, but I don't think this was the case for this one. I had about 46% battery and I had both wi-fi and bluetooth on (I forgot to turn them off) and when I come back about 4 or 5 hours later it wouldn't turn on. I did what I normally do, hold the power button for about 20secs. No boot. Did it for 25 seconds to be sure that if it was on, that it would be turned off, and tried holding it down again with no luck.

I think the problem is, is that when you are booting up your Nook with this rom, you can turn off the screen. When your nook is turning on press the power button and watch the screen turn black. I think this is why I never saw the screen turn on when it was charging. Because when I did get it to turn on, it was 100% full :)
[Nook Color General] goldiefish:
Was successfully running MIUI 1.7.1 on NC. Flashed this, lost root!

http://goo-inside.me/miui/encore/

Restoring backup now, more info as soon as I know.
[Nook Color General] goldiefish:
Heh. Can't get to CWM recovery without root! Back to SD card! I must say, as a totally dangerous (to myself) noob, I LOVE the boot-from-SD on the nook.
[Nook Color General] goldiefish:
OK. Here's what I know so far. There are two identically named files:

"MIUI.us_encore_1.7.8_Eng_deo_ZipA_Signed_andmer"

The one from the goo-inside site is 91,689KB. The one downloaded via CWM is 86,954KB. I don't know the difference in the files, and I don't know why they can both reside in the same directory with the same name. But, I have them both.

The one from CWM seemed to be OK. It updated my 1.7.1 to 1.7.8 without a wipe and seemed fine. The one from the goo-inside site SEEMED to work, but it cost me my root access. Nothing needing root access worked at all. Couldn't even reboot into recovery. Had to use SD card to clean, reflash 1.2, reroot.

That's all I know for now. Hope this info helps someone.
[Nook Color General] Divine_Madcat:
Indeed, i am happy to see credit given where due. MIUI is still not my cup of tea, but i have no problem seeing it supported on the boards now. :)
[Nook Color General] goldiefish:
OK, so I may have a file renaming problem :o

BUT, the MIUI 1.7.8 from goo-inside DEFINITELY took away my root access.
[Nook Color General] mtnguy:
Am running 1.7.8 from goo-inside and have root.
[Nook Color General] AidenM:
Download from ROM Manager.
[Nook Color General] SprintFun:
Same here.

MIUI on the Nook is simply awesome. It just sucks that a lot of the MIUI Apps such as sms and phone and such are of no big use on a Nook.
[Nook Color General] AidenM:
They aren't any use at all. :D
[Nook Color General] ColdSunNC:
I love this rom. It really suits me best. I would even consider donating to it. Is there any place I can do that?
[Nook Color General] Divine_Madcat:
Please consider donating to the CM7 project first, since all of this (MIUI) was built on top of CM7 code (and the CM7 guys have been at it for months.....)
[Nook Color General] votinh:
My post will be nothing to do with this MIUI Rom at all but I want to know, perhap someone pls provide the list of CM7's Gods (creators, authors, developers, ...) and MIUI's Gods and Phire????'s Gods.

I just want to know who doing what so I can thank them and give them credits where due.
[Nook Color General] fattire:
You can donate to dalingrin in particular via the nook color tweaks app. Or, consider a (US tax deductable) donation to the electronic frontier foundation, who keep messing w your devices legal. There are plenty of service providers, hardware manufacturers, and other companies trying to make it illegal to play with your own hardware, so a donation to the eff will go a long way in keeping CM7 and other 3rd party roms viable for the future.

Donating to the eff is a way to say thanks... and you are doing yourself a favor at the same time.

www.eff.org. - typing on my phone now w/o brackets or i'd link it...
[Nook Color General] ColdSunNC:
I will do both. It may not be much, like $5 to $10 each, but I *will* donate. Both projects are fantastic. My NC is so close to being as good as an iPad.

On the subject at hand, I really like the simplicity, customization, and power behind MIUI's interface. I have been using CM7 nightlies before changing to this, which was working quite well.

Like everyone else, I wish there was a better solution than button savior for MIUI, but it isn't enough for me to stop using MIUI.
[Nook Color General] sGooss:
Programs running....

Using Phiremod Miui v7 Test 2. Everything working great. Glitches fixed, but I've noticed programs running that I never use and have not opened... "Music," "Calendar," ".... too many to remember right now. I end them in a task stopper called, "System," but right away, they all come back. The first is always Music. Hope someone can help. Thanks!
[Nook Color General] lesdense:
What's the big appeal?

I'm always intrigued by innovations for the NC. I read the threads about MIUI here at XDA, installed it on a spare Droid that I often use to test new ROMs and it seems to look and work just fine. But -- what's the big appeal? It looks a little different from CM7 and it works a little different from CM7. OK, fine. Does it have any significant advantages? Speed, capabilities, battery life, features? I'm running CM7 RC1 on my Nook right now and I'm not seeing the reasons why I'd dump it for MIUI. Again -- I have nothing AGAINST MIUI and I certainly applaud (and support) the efforts of people who make this stuff so interesting. I just don't see why I'd want to switch to it on my Nook.
[Nook Color General] ivanmmj:
Not sure about the Nook version, as I haven't tried it, but MIUI on my MyTouch4G gives me a much better battery life and a bunch of little useful features (I don't use the default home screen.) I love the inline text read and reply, the built in flash light in the lock screen, etc.
