About 15 minutes into Miui 1.9.2 on my NC, and the thing has completely frozen up on me. I was going to reboot to make a nandroid after getting my apps set up: power menu >> "Recovery", but the selector bounced up to "Normal" and the entire tablet seized up. Can't select anything on the screen and no reaction from any of the physical buttons or button combinations.

I've never seen this before, no idea how to fix it. Can't even see it in adb. Am I stuck waiting for the batter to run down? (had about 90% charge.) If anyone can help...

I ran CM7 on here for months, never had a single problem with it.

edit: It may have solved itself. After more than 10 minutes like that, the screen turned off. It was still unresponsive to any buttons for several minutes, but eventually I was able to boot to CWM. Wiped dalvik and fixed permissions (grasping at straws here) and was able to boot back to Miui. Still, if anybody has any idea what may have happened, I'd like to learn.
[Nook Color Android Development] PMDColeslaw:
Can anyone whos running miui from sd please tell me how they got it to run stable? I have tried 8.5 and 9.2 and both boot fine, but as soon as I try to use the theme apk or any google apk I get instant force closes. I cant sign into google accounts either.
[Nook Color Android Development] k8108:
Try re-installing. 9.2 ran fine for a couple of days, then started freezing up like crazy. I did a re-install a few hours ago and its working okay. Don't know how long it will last this time.

Also try running fix permissions in Rom Manager.

Hope you can get it running okay for you.

edit: I didn't pay attention to the part where you are running it off SD. I am running emmc (is that the correct term)
[Nook Color Android Development] patgnds:
What kind of card are you using? I am using a Sandisk sdcard with no problems. when I was trying to us other cards for CM7 I had a lot FC all the time. good luck
[Nook Color Android Development] 1seven:
Right now I've got Phiremod MIUI-v2 running stable, based on 1.8.5. I full-rooted and flashed CM7 to internal memory a long time ago, though--it sounds like you're running it on SD. Though I haven't done any SD implementations yet, eventually I want to do the dual-boot thing, reverting the NC to stock with Android on SD.

From what I've read, this is key--good performance for an Android SD install requires one of those class2 or class4 Sandisks with their high random write speeds.

edit: problem resolved itself
[Nook Color Android Development] 1seven:
I'd LOVE to be able to get CM7-style always-on soft buttons at the bottom of the screen as well, I don't like the button-savior style at all (though I can see why some would prefer it, but having the option to choose would be ideal.)
[Nook Color Android Development] tsg2513:
I too, have not been able to run MIUI for more than a day or so without freezing. I have tried just about everything from formating, wiping cache, fixing permissions, re-flashing, etc. etc but always wind up going back to CM7 Nightlies. Why is it that we have so many freezing issues with MIUI? Has anyone figured out how to keep this running smoothly without having to constantly reboot?
[Nook Color Android Development] 1seven:
edit: problem seems to have been isolated, resolved itself on subsequent charges
[Nook Color Android Development] Sizzlechest:
If anyone is using 1.8.5 or greater, changing the density to 300 dpi fixes the widget issues and allows some games that would look too small at 240 dpi to fit within the screen. To change the DPI, you need an app like LCD Density.
[Nook Color Android Development] PMDColeslaw:
Wintec 8gb class 6. It works very well with cm7 so its not the card. Sounds like people are having issues with it on emmc as well so maybe its just the rom.
[Nook Color Android Development] moz90:
i have had no problems what so ever with seems to be more stable for me than cm7 nightly 177

ps i am running on emmc
[Nook Color Android Development] Windsor1959:
I run 1.8.5 from one SD card, and CM7 from another. Both run very well, no lagginess at all. I use dalingrin's OC kernel in both. In fact, I have an app that constantly force closes in CM7 (any version) but runs flawlessly in MIUI. Go figure; I can't! I'd recommend either, but I'm leaning toward MIUI so far.
[Nook Color Android Development] tsg2513:
Hmm, I wonder I can solve this problem by flashing dalgrin's kernel...?? I will try it.
[Nook Color Android Development] PMDColeslaw:
Did you use the size agnostic SD script for your miui card or something different?
[Nook Color Android Development] Windsor1959:
Yes, I used verygreen's size agnostic SD script. I renamed the MIUI zip file so the script would work with it. But nothing special beyond that.

I haven't tried updating to 1.9.2 using the size agnostic script. I'm wondering if anyone has tried it, and how well it works.
[Nook Color Android Development] PMDColeslaw:
So when you use the theme settings to change something are you getting FC's? Also are you able to log into google apps?

Video Issues

Looking for some help please... running MIUI 1.8.5. I cannot get any streaming videos to play at all. I first noticed it in Youtube but flash videos via the browser don't work either. I've wiped, reflashed, tried 1.9.2, still no go. Any ideas?
[Nook Color Android Development] Crwly:
It can play mp4s, but it helps if they are small. Searching on XDA, I got the impression that the only thing that is going to fix most of the video issues is a firmware update from B&N. But DVD catalyst 4 can convert files for the nook, and that does seem to make them run a bit better.
[Nook Color Android Development] woneil:
Is there a reason why the download link on the first page of this post hasn't been updated to MIUI 1.9.2?

Also, I concur with other posters that Button Savior is not a great solution for the menu and esc buttons, etc. Is there any plan to rectify this situation?
[Nook Color Android Development] Windsor1959:
I've had no force closes, and all my Google apps work.
[Nook Color Android Development] Crwly:
You can also change the LCD density by editing the build.prop and save yourself the space an app would take up.
[Nook Color Android Development] tiffanydawnn:
Thanks, but I was talking about YouTube video and web based flash video.

Funny though, changing the LCD density fixed the problem. I changed it to 250.
[Nook Color Android Development] Windsor1959:
Internal eMMC

I enjoyed running MIUI from an SD card, and so i decided to try installing it on eMMC. I'm running 1.9.2 with dalingrin's 6/30 CM7 kernel, and all is running well.

I have a question about my Nook's internal storage. I've never had a non-stock ROM on my eMMC before, so I don't know if this is "normal" or not. I noticed on Titanium Backup that it lists "internal storage" of about 987 MB, and "internal eMMC" of about 5.2 GB. When I go to settings and look at the "manage applications" folder, it tells me that I have about 987 MB of internal storage. Does that mean that MIUI can't use that "internal eMMC"?

I also have a 16 GB sd card, so I'm not in dire need of space. But it seems odd that there would be so much seemingly unusable space.

Thank you for any info you can offer! I'm just curious.
[Nook Color Android Development] Crwly:
I've noticed this with 1.8.5 on emmc also. I imagine it has something to do with how the internal storage is partitioned. But I have found that when I plug my nook in to my computer it shows up as two separate devices, so I just dumped all of my music on to the nook so that the extra 5gb wouldn't go to waste.
[Nook Color Android Development] anurbanlegend:
The internal 5gb is mounted at /emmc and the sdcard gets mounted at /sdcard.
[Nook Color Android Development] Windsor1959:
Thanks for your reply. After submitting this post, I found posts about the newer "blue dot" Nooks that are formatted in just the opposite way to what you describe. That gave me a good clue. I also see that I can use that emmc space. That answers my question.

Can't connect to Wifi

I just installed 1.9.2 via Rom Manager. I absolutely love this but am now having an issue where I can't connect to any wireless network. It just keeps saying obtaining IP address and it can't pull it. I flashed over from CM7 Nightly 177 where it didnt have any issue. If I can have fixing this it would be great.

Thanks
[Nook Color Android Development] Sjflowerhorn:
I have also updated to 1.9.2 via rom manager and am currently connected to a wifi network right now. So it does work I would try a full wipe but that's just me.
[Nook Color Android Development] zenicsg:
Try changing the channel to a lower number. Mine was at 11 and took a long time to find. Changed it to 1 and the connection is instant.
[Nook Color Android Development] Nate731:
Another vote for the "zMooth" app that was mentioned earlier in this thread. Now I just leave Button savior closed all the time. About as close to a dedicated soft button line as you get AND it doesn't take up the space.

Nook Color MIUI 1.9.16 - http://goo.gl/qw2ws - 804529ce809862e76e78b68337270d57

you may have to wipe data - factory reset if you are having problems.
[Nook Color Android Development] tsg2513:
There is a problem with this ROM. It keeps rebooting itself when trying to restore apps from the MIUI Backup app. I have formated system, data and cache but no luck.

In fact, upon further investigation, it reboots itself without doing anything.
[Nook Color Android Development] andmer:
don't restore settings.
[Nook Color Android Development] kitjarik:
Same thing here. I've already had two random restarts (one on USB plugged in), second when browsing on wifi.

That's not all - my biggest problem is that I can't mount neither SD, nor eMMC, when I connect Nook to the computer. Tried on several PCs, still the same.

The yellow light shines, USB Storage in notification area enabled, SD card unmounted from Nook, but not mounted on PC. I have had the very same problem on previous 1.8.5. Do you have any ideas, why could that be happening?

All in all, andmer, you've done great job, thank you! Maybe you'll consider creating a fork, based on CM7 Stable/at least experimental? Cuz i suspect some of the issues might happen because of the nightlies.
[Nook Color Android Development] chisleu:
Thanks for this. I'm running miui on my g2x and I'm going to move my tablet over now!! so nice.

Do we have an OC kernel option?
[Nook Color Android Development] Windsor1959:
Dalingrin's CM7 kernel of 6/30 works fine for me! I use it with setCPU and Nook Color Tweaks.
[Nook Color Android Development] patgnds:
I have 1.9.2 loaded on sdcard I update and am able to use USB mount sd and EMMC with no problems on computer that does not have ADB installed. On the computer that has ADB it will not mount sd or EMMC. this has been so for all versions.
[Nook Color Android Development] boggsie:
Great ROM, no issues whatsoever, here.

Best regards,

-boggsie
[Nook Color Android Development] chisleu:
Guess I'll try the new one and see what happens.

Poo. it's Froyo only. I wonder if he didn't include it because it's in the CM7 distro now. Hoping if it's applicable that he will release it as a separate package, or else someone can make one I suppose from the latest cm7 binary package.
[Nook Color Android Development] montresor60:
Wiped data/cache and flashed 1.9.16 from 1.8.5 but the ROM does not appear to be rooted. Anyone else noticed this?

Also, and please excuse me if this has already been addressed, but why has MIUI gone from 1.9.2 to 1.9.16?
[Nook Color Android Development] chisleu:
I also can't find the SU app to change the setting. I can't reboot into recovery.
[Nook Color Android Development] raycaster3:
SU is in the tools folder on the first home screen. Go in there and turn enable root access. It comes default off. Who knows why? Idk

1.9.02 to 1.9.16
[Nook Color Android Development] andrewddickey:
MIUI has a unique version naming system based on the date:

year.month.day

1.9.2 - released 9/2/11 - 2011.09.02

1.9.16 - released 9/16/11 - 2011.09.16

MIUI releases nightlies/"weeklies" every Friday.
[Nook Color Android Development] montresor60:
Right. Thank you.

For anyone else; reboot after enabling root access and you're set to go.

---------- Post added at 05:14 PM ---------- Previous post was at 05:05 PM ----------

I didn't know that! Thanks.

Didn't know that, either. Thanks again!

I saw that CM7 'nightlies' were up again, so I downloaded and installed #197 and played with it for a while, hoping that the VPN problem might have been solved. As far as I could tell, it wasn't. When I saw the SU solution a few posts back, I returned immediately to MIUI. For me, it's a far more logical and useful interface for the NC, although a quick 'n' easy way to connect to my VPN service (currently, seemingly impossible) would make it complete.
[Nook Color Android Development] Windsor1959:
I have a question about upgrading. I have 1.9.2 on my emmc. When I ran CM7 nightlies, all I needed to do was flash the newer one over the older one and it worked fine. Does that also apply to MIUI, or (as some posts suggest) am I better off wiping data and cache as well when I flash a newer version? Just making sure ahead of time, to save myself some extra steps and frustration later! Thanks!
[Nook Color Android Development] supernoman:
Anyone having battery indicator problems? I wiped and install 1.9.16 and my battery has gone up from 90 to 98 percent and stayed there overnight.

Edit - reboot seems to have brought the battery indicator back to normal.
[Nook Color Android Development] k8108:
I love MIUI! **BUT the more I use it, the more I have freezes and the dreaded screen of death has attacked my nook! I reinstall, get everything set up the way i want, and things are running fine. Then comes day 2 and all the problems start again. Is there no way to get MIUI running without freezing, etc.?

Launcher Pro is a must for me but I'm wondering if that has anything to do with my glitches. Anyone have further info on this?

I have run fix permissions in Rom Manager.

I have tried both toggling wifi always on, or off when sleeping. Doesn't seem to make a difference.

Any other suggestions?
[Nook Color Android Development] raycaster3:
Use the MIUI backup built in to the rom to make it a little less painful to do the full wipe. This is my third device running MIUI and the backup capability is amazing! I still use tb for my apps but miui backup for everything else.

By the Way... Holy crap it takes a CENTURY to make a nandroid with this device!!! I'm on generating md5 sum finally after 25 min!!!! Whew

UPDATE:

Went to my nand because after I restored my settings wifi broke and then threw me into a bootloop :( had to use my bootable cwm msd to get to recovery and from there to my backup. What would we do without those nands?!?! Go Koush!!!
[Nook Color Android Development] tambourineman86:
hey guys, I have searched and searched for the answer to this question, have searched my services.jar but to no avail. Is there a mod that removes the network signal icon from the taskbar? I know it's built into cm7, I was surprised it hasn't been built into miui yet. In the larger scheme of things, I know this mod wouldn't be very difficult, and think it should definitely be included in the next release. Just my two cents...Anyways, thanks in advance for any help I receive. And beautiful, beautiful ROM btw.

EDIT: sorry guys, was going off a previous version. I see it's removed. Awesome!
[Nook Color Android Development] Sizzlechest:
When I upgraded to 1.9.16, it was gone.
[Nook Color Android Development] tambourineman86:
Yeah, I didn't get back in time to edit my post. My bad. It's good to see it gone.
[Nook Color Android Development] zorvalth:
Do you still have problems with off centered widgets on 1.9.16?
[Nook Color Android Development] story:
Market is not working for me.

I just installed the ROM and it`s stuck at Starting Download.

I already tried the WLAN Download Only

FIX IT after another WIPE

Hope it last
[Nook Color Android Development] Sizzlechest:
Yes, but that's fixed by changing the density to 300, which also fixes other stuff.
[Nook Color Android Development] mtnguy:
Other stuff? Please elaborate ...
[Nook Color Android Development] supernoman:
1.9.23 upped. I updated mine (actually total redo since I had to resize my data and media partitions).

So far so good.
[Nook Color Android Development] fr4nk1yn:
Been a long time user of cyanogen for a long time on all devices, tried it on the nook and call me crazy out seems smoother. Problem is I keep getting unsupported device messages in the market that I don't get with cyanogen.

I initially changed the screen density to 160 but that makes the status bar a mess with apps. At 180, which I remember being supported by the market (?), the status bar is perfect.

Is it me changing the density or something else? I searched the thread but perhaps .

Ideas?

Is there any way to disable Button Saviour from start up? I really don't like it and it seems like it doesn't accept menu requests half the time.
[Nook Color Android Development] k8108:
Just open the button savior app and toggle the service off. Sometimes I have to go to settings>manage application>all (tab is upper center on screen>button savior>clear data. Button savior should work. Also, check for updates in the market to see more themes.

Personally, I love this app.
[Nook Color Android Development] tsddave:
Ive never had a complaint about button savior myself.Sure sometimes the nook has to give it permission so you have to press the button twice but really whats the big deal!?
[Nook Color Android Development] rvpals:
how do you change density in nook MIUI?

Thanks.
[Nook Color Android Development] Lyphen:
Well, I didn't want it to load ever, and disabling every boot was a hassle, so I just ran Terminal Emulator. Running zMooth now, which I find to be much more intuitive.
[Nook Color Android Development] Colchiro:
Since Murdock's tablet tweaks are a part of CM7, why haven't they made it into MIUI?

I like have MIUI on my DroidX (which has hard buttons), but can't handle Button Savior on the NC.
[Nook Color Android Development] Alakar:
This is the exact thing I was thinking. This ROM looks great and seems to work well, but Button Savior just ruins the whole feel and is just irritating to me. Would love to see Tablet Tweaks included.
[Nook Color Android Development] Colchiro:
Exactly.... feels half-finished. :D

That's all this needs to be the NC Rom
[Nook Color Android Development] tazwik:
Having trouble booting.

Hey miui, i love ur work, i follow u on my hd2 phone.

I'm flashing it on nook, i flashed from sd with cmw.

When its complete, i reboot, then it gets stuck on cyogenic logo with loding sign. Do u know y?
[Nook Color Android Development] kwyrt:
Have you rooted? If you are trying to install to EMMC you will need to run uNooter first, then flash MIUI.
[Nook Color Android Development] tazwik:
Can i use manual rooter?
[Nook Color Android Development] DizzyDen:
If you have another uSD available I would try it. What class and brand uSD are you trying to use? Class 2 or 4 Sandisk are about the best you'll find for anything writing a bunch of small files like these (almost all android devices) do.

Why would you have to root before installing a rooted ROM?

You do NOT have to root the NC prior to installing this.
[Nook Color Android Development] kwyrt:
Maybe you do not have to root first. I know when I tried to install MIUI using CWM from an SD card running Phiremod it did not work right. I then followed the instructions I found in the Cyanogenmod Wiki, replacing MIUI for the Cyanogenmod image, which stated to run uNooter first and then install. This worked for me. Don't know enough about it to tell you why, just know it worked.
[Nook Color Android Development] AidenM:
MIUI is awesome
[Nook Color Android Development] Phatdawg:
I'm really more concerned about development at the core level for nook. It appears that Andmer is porting their builds over with some combination with cm7. So unless they actually make a level to make a custom screen that sets it self slightly higher to allow soft buttons, we should probably get a dev of either soft buttons, button savior, or virtual button bar to work on a very customizable button placement option with button spacing.

Huge/large/med/small/tiny buttons

None/small/med/large spacing between buttons.

Locations: uset sets or at least each corner + the middles of each side.

Orientation horizontal or vertical.

Those are things I would like see on soft buttons. I left comments over on button saviors blog, but haven't heard a response.

Soft keys is somewhat buggy and crashed time to time unable to find some file.

Virtual button bar is a 36 hour trial with limited locations and didn't want to pay for it after such a short time.
[Nook Color Android Development] hirano:
I absolutely love the MIUI ROM and use it all day in my phone (Motorola Defy), but for me the Nook without the Tablet Tweaks/Softkeys is a no go.
[Nook Color Android Development] SCrid2000:
Tried that, still wasn't working. Not a big deal though, got the cwm image written to an SD and I can use that.

Maybe the problem is that I had CWM installed then. You would know better than me ;)

That's probably gonna lead to me going back to CM7 as well. Nice rom tho, and it's always cool to see something new to put on my Nook.
[Nook Color Android Development] sark666:
How's the performance of this? nothing is hardware accelerated like launcher pro is it?
[Nook Color Android Development] raycaster3:
Damn I couldn't get this rom to boot up for the life of me. Installed it four times! Sucks cuz I run miui on my phone. Idk what the problem was. I might try putting it in my bootable SD wither cwm on it. Who knows I'm sick of rebooting and wiping and restoring so I'm done. SUCK!

So all of you that are having success with this. How long does it take to boot up? I've waited almost end minutes with nothing

This Rom is Fantastic its the best of android and ios . The soft button thing is anoying but i guess i can get used to it i might go back to cm7 but mostly because at the moment i only have one sd and it is for my phone ,on cm7 i swapped the emmc and sd but that zip wont work here for some reason :/ does any one know a way i can fix this ?

How did you install? Cwm recovery wipe flash etc?
