Hi everybody, is there someone who could help to find some easy way to make HTC Sense rotate? I found some threads where it was not fully understandable described for me. Unpack Rosie.apk, change parameters in Androidmanifest.xml.

How can I edit xml file of this kind? I tried notepad, Wordpad, nothing works. Will it work if I pack edited file back to apk?

I hooked up gmail and facebook (inside Xperia) settings correctly yet the notifications do not come, i have to manually check them, then only the phone gives indications about new messages,posts..etc.

noticed the sync icon does not seem to be there on the notification bar all the time, but while it's there the messages, posts sent to me during that time are received without me having to intervene to receive them.:confused:

i've enabled background data and auto sync, still I have to manually check for updates

this is my first android so not sure whether the sync logo should be on notification bar all the time

It's not there all the time only when syncing and you can change how often it syncs in the app settings I believe

Hello guys!

My Wildfire is running CM 7.1b at the moment but earlier on the stock ROM there was an option, that when you turn phone upside down when somebody is calling it will automatically mute itself. I've tried to find such an option through the settings menu (because it's not working) but with no luck. Can anyone relate to that?

No way. The boot firmware will always boot the sd card first. If it doesn't, I will personally go to the closest BN store and punch the first staff person I see.

According to the developer of DVD Catalyst 4, the 1.3 update solves the video playback degradation issue that was introduced with 1.2:

http://www.tools4movies.com/2011/08/bn-nookcolor-1-3-update/

That's very good news for anyone who wants to stick with the stock OS.
[Nook Color General] joenathane:
That's good news, that means new video drivers and/or kernel, once B&N releases the source for 1.3 the benefits should come rolling into CM7.
[Nook Color General] patruns:
I wasn't aware B&N was releasing any of their source code....
[Nook Color General] chrisanddarla:
If I am running CM7 on emmc then I don't do anything. Is that right?
[Nook Color General] Divine_Madcat:
They are required to (and have been) releasing the source for KERNEL changes, but they have not released their OS source code. If the fix is in the kernel, we could get it; if not...
[Nook Color General] roustabout:
BTW, I apologize, but there's no OC on the BN stock 1.3 kernel.

I grabbed the update and took a run at rooting using the most recent manual nooter build.

I forgot that MN includes the 900 Mhz kernel in the recent builds.

When I reflashed and rerooted with an older MN (Hoping to get the market to work, without success) I realized my mistake, as setCPU reported an 800 mhz clock.
[Nook Color General] rootfan:
Hey everyone, i was previously running 1.2.0 wich i rooted via manual nooter, i updated to 1.3.0. Zeam launcher, and all my previous google apps were still on it, but root was gone, so i tried rooting 1.3.0 via manual nooter and it worked, full root privileges allowed.

Edit:

I have heard people say that there is no overclocking,as my signature now says, i have flashed dalignrins 1.2 ghz kernel and everything went fine. As far as the update goes, internet is a little faster, and it has the new newspapers, but i do not use them so that is no major improvment for me. I just like to have the latest and greatest.
[Nook Color General] psychoace:
So that probably means nothing changed at the kernel level. If it did you likely wouldn't boot with the old OC kernel. It seems like all the improvements were with drivers and apps
[Nook Color General] Fairwayman:
Please help a noob and his wife-------A little history first: put cm7 on sd card 2 weeks ago and ran cm7 but wife did not like it so shut down pwr and took sd card out. Rebooted and she was back to stock 1.2, been this way for 2 weeks, so today we tried the below..no avail

Dloaded 1.3 zip from BN, hooked nk up to computer, dropped the zip file on nook root drive letter (e)(not on or in any folder), let it reboot--stuck at yellow ex point and green android guy for 20 min, pressed pwr button and CW mod menu came up(how can this come up without sd card in?), selected reboot device now, it rebooted to stock BN nook home, checked device info still 1.2 . Its just stuck at and android guy/yellow ex point, hit pwr button and I get CW mod menu and choose reboot device now. The 1.3 never takes...help please
[Nook Color General] joenathane:
They have to release the source of the kernel due to the GPL license.
[Nook Color General] paulspencer2001:
Fairwayman, I'm getting the same thing the same thing, I have tried downloading the update on 3 different computers. 1is 32bit win 7 other two are 64 bit win 7. the update says it failed file error checking.
[Nook Color General] 416inversed:
The error stems from 1.3 being incompatible with CWM.

If you're getting CWM w/o the SD in, you've installed it to your emmc. I did the same thing, not realizing VeryGreen's SD method came with its own Recovery software and that CWM likes to install itself to the emmc.

I finally fixed this yesterday, following the discussion here:

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1231564

And the instructions here:

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1050520

Essentially, you download the second zip file from the instructions and put it on a spare sd. Boot into CWM and install it; while still in CWM, do a factory reset; and reboot into a clean stock version of 1.2 w/ CWM removed. From there you can upgrade to 1.3.
[Nook Color General] Fairwayman:
Thanks for responce, the wife does not want me to do all that to her beloved NK, she has it setup the way she wants and does not want me to try and fix it. She saw what a process it was for me at 1st to go thru with my TF101 so she has lil faith in me after 30 yrs---sheesh. Besides, for her use the 1.3 update would not impact her performance as she just reads and checks email...lol

Well, back to the Transformer and trying diff mods---luv learning this stuff and the constant improvements you guys do around here. 1.7 prime runnin like a dream--woohoo
[Nook Color General] paulspencer2001:
I did not have to do a factory reset after I loaded the 1.2 file, I just restarted and all my data and settings were still there. It took to many tries to download a working copy of the 1.3 update from B&N's server before I got a copy that would install. I tried it from 4 didferent computers, tried downloading directly to Nook, the one that finialy worked was from an XP computer at work. and that one took 3 tries before it would transfer and then install. Yes I removed cwr from the nook with the 1.2 install first. The only thing I and advise is to keep trying the download and side loading it (after removing cwr) until it installs. I read on B&N site that this same thing happened to other people with there other updates and you had to keep tring until you got a working download.
[Nook Color General] hultrain:
I have what I hope is a simple question: once you've done the above, can you still use your dual-boot sd card, or will that end up re-borking the 1.3 on the stock partition?

I use dual boot SD card through VeryGreen (actually the jtbnet version). I like the dual boot option. However, also want to have B&N firmware 1.3 for when I want to switch over to using the stock firmware. I'm not techy enough to understand all the jargon in the threads that tell you how to fix the issue of getting CWM off the emmc to allow the 1.3 update, but from what I can tell, it appears that this fix makes it impossible for you to go back to using a dual boot SD. So, is it just impossible to dual boot from SD card and also have B&N firmware 1.3 on the stock? If it's possible, how do I set it up?
[Nook Color General] joej:
My 1.2 is rooted with ManualNooter... can I sideload 1.3 without losing any apps ?
[Nook Color General] Taosaur:
Is there a CWM-flashable zip of this update yet?

The only borking that ever occurred was when you went into ROM Manager and pushed the button labeled "Flash ClockworkMod Recovery." Don't do that, and you'll be fine.
[Nook Color General] sangahm:
Yes, that's what I did. Updated to 1.3 without loosing root.

However I tried downloading a trial of one of the new 1.3 magazines (Time) and it doesn't even start loading (just sits there waiting). Don't know if this is related or not.
[Nook Color General] hultrain:
Taosaur, looks like we're having the same conversation over at B&N's forums as well. I'll respond the same way: I don't think that's correct, as it appears there are people who swear up and down they never pushed "Flash CWM Recovery", but still have CWM in their emmc. I think it has something to do with how we installed our dual-boot SD cards, some of the builds apparently had CWM Recovery built-in (if that even makes sense)

Anyway, my original question stands: If you have an issue with updating to 1.3 because of CWM in their emmc partition, and you use the fix where you remove emmc, does that mean you can no longer use the dual boot SD card, or can you still use it (assuming that you may have the same problem again when B&N does another update).

Can anyone answer that? Thanks!
[Nook Color General] Taosaur:
You may be onto something as far as CWM getting flashed accidentally during the initial install and set-up, though I can't think of where in the process (at least with verygreen's cards) that would have happened. Regardless, you won't have to re-install CM7 on your SD card, so any step that might have caused CWM to be installed won't be repeated, and CM7 doesn't rely on CWM to function, so there's nothing to worry about as far as booting your CM7 SD alongside 1.3.
[Nook Color General] hultrain:
OK. That is what I was hoping and it does make sense the way you put it. When I have some time free I will try and report back what happened
[Nook Color General] jerrykur:
I tried this and I think I lost root. At least the market, gapp, and I cannot side load apps anymore.
[Nook Color General] doncaruana:
I think I may be able to cobble together a couple of updates. One a new version of manual nooter for rooting 1.3 and one to update a rooted 1.2 to 1.3.

I'll post back in a couple of days when I have something useable.
[Nook Color General] 4dthinker:
I need some help. My NC has 1.01 on it, and was hacked a few weeks after coming out to run the full android apps and an alternate launcher pro. It won't update at all in this state, either on its own or by copying the updates (1.2 or 1.3) onto it from my PC.

I haven't been using it, and have someone interested in buying it to use as an ereader. What is the EASIEST way to put it back to factory condition so it can be updated to the latest firmware? The only option I can find in settings is to delete content from it. That doesn't put it back to original factory state.

Thanks ahead of time. ;)
[Nook Color General] anymoose:
That would be fantastic (update from 1.2 to 1.3).
[Nook Color General] billingdl:
Yes, that would be super! :)
[Nook Color General] sangahm:
Big thanks, for your responsiveness!!
[Nook Color General] doncaruana:
Partial success but nothing ready for anyone yet. Basically everything looks okay and existing stuff runs fine, but when you try to download anything from the market, it just goes to la-la land and never installs or updates. I'll see if I can figure anything out later and post back.
[Nook Color General] hultrain:
Well, sideloaded 1.3 onto the nook and it installed with no problem, so that's a weight off my shoulder.
[Nook Color General] doncaruana:
You'll lose superuser and root. Existing apps might still run, but you'll lose the market.
[Nook Color General] sangahm:
Won't you retain superuser and root, but lose the Market? That was my experience.
[Nook Color General] doncaruana:
I don't think you actually retained root or superuser. The first thing the B&N update does is format the system partition, which is where the su file is. Stuff that's already in place may work, but you don't have root anymore. If you tried to use ADB you'd see you can't get superuser access.
