Yeah the 3.0 is the one you want.

Just flash it in Clockwork the way you would flash any rom or kernel.

Before you flash though make sure to wipe cache and dalvik, and just to be safe fix permissions afterwards.

Just to make sure we're on the same page... You flashed clockwork via the NVflash method, right?

and then to get into clockwork to flash other stuff such as roms and this camera, you hold volume down and power from a powered off state, correct?
[T-Mobile LG G2x] PitbullVMX:
Yes I am on clockwork via NVflash. I'm still a bit confused. Sorry if I wasnt clear before. See, the clockwork thing was the only and first thing I flashed. I never flashed a rom or anything. I followed the instructions to root exactly how I saw them. Obviously one step was to flash the clockwork mod. Thats how far my experience with flashing goes. So Im not exactly sure what to do to flash the cam on my phone. I put it on my sd card Im assuming right? Then I do the hold volume down and power to get to whatever that screen is called? After that do I just go to "install zip from sdcard" and look for it? Thats what I assumed but I have no idea why I have to wipe cache or what dalvik is? and why/how do I fix permissions after?
[T-Mobile LG G2x] thanasisc4:
Ok good ur on the right track having CWM installed via NVflash.

Two questions:

1) What version of clockwork are your running?

2) How did you achieve root if the only thing you've ever flashed is clockwork?

That will help me help you.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] PitbullVMX:
I think the CWM is 5.020. I got it from this link..

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1056847

then to root, all I did was download the root zip file found in this link..

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1255214

I followed those steps.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] thanasisc4:
So then you have flashed something in CWM... you flashed the root zip, no?

The same way you flashed the root zip is the same way ur gonna flash the camera, I guess since its not a rom or kernel you don't need to bother wiping catch and fixing permissions:

-Boot into CWM with vol down and power

-select install zip from sd card

-find the camera 3.0 zip on ur sd card, install

-reboot, enjoy

For future reference, when ur ready to flash a custom rom or kernel, add 3 more steps to this process:

-Boot into CWM

-wipe catch partition (in the case that your going from a 2.3.3 rom to a CM7 based rom, this step changes to "wipe data/factory reset")

-advanced, wipe dalvik catch

-install zip from sd card

-find zip and install it

-advanced, fix permissions
[T-Mobile LG G2x] PitbullVMX:
Thank you! Just one last quick question. Let's say I flash the cam app. Then later down the road I wanna flash a new rom. Since I gotta wipe everything I would have to flash the cam back to use it on the new rom right?
[T-Mobile LG G2x] thanasisc4:
Yes. However, don't try to flash the LG cam over a CM7-based rom, as it won't work. 2.3.3 based roms are ok.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] pyromaniac1:
So what are my options if I don't like the Gingerbread/cm7/AOSP camera?

it sucks big time :(
[T-Mobile LG G2x] PitbullVMX:
Which ROM is the best? I am seriously thinking about flashing a new rom on my phone. I never was but I guess flashing is like a drug, do it once and you'll wanna do it more. well atleast for me lol. I'm asking this because I was looking through the rom options in the other forum and I read something about needing to flash a kernel to overclock, then I saw a CM7 kernel with an overclock preset? Confused me a little. I can flash any rom I want and overclock myself right? Will all roms have a kernel that supports overclocking?

Can you give me the best rom/kernel to flash based what I'm looking for? I would like to overclock to atleast 1.2(Whats the highest I can do without it becoming dangerous for the phone?). I want no bloatware, can a rom free up internal memory? if so, I want that, faster then stock performance and better battery life. The LG camera or atleast a cam app that is better then stock android. I also want stablity in performance. Just for a reference, I was looking at Weapon rom, seems like the best to me, but then again I am new to the whole rom game. I know its based on personal taste, but I would like a little push in the right direction so I dont have to do trial and error with roms.

Thanks in advance for all your help.

that is near the same camera, likely the same developers.

Only thing is I think the steady feature was an option on all photo modes on Froyo LG, where here its a specific option itself. I don't remember well enough the old one.

The power off image is probably a little trickier as it's displayed after the Android shutdown sequence has been started. Chances are it's packed into a jar and displayed as part of the shutdown context or it's compiled into the kernel.

haha.. Your image is funny.Thank you for reply,and hoping you can post the steps soon.

Well, I ran into some issues with my custom resource file, so while the custom image did work it made some other resources go out of sync with the B&N apps.

Oh,I see.I succesfully find the pgm files with the command you post :"mount -o rw -t vfat /dev/block/mmcblk0p1 /data/local/tmp/mnt" :)

[Nook Touch General] ros87:
Edit: See my post below.
[Nook Touch General] traycold:
hi all,

i found a simple way to customize shutdown image.

I modified the class where the shutdown image is set. With my mod, if an image called "shutdown.png" is found within folder "screensavers" of Nook, this image is used; otherwise the default image is used.

To enable this mod, you just need to update framework.jar and reboot the Nook. Of course you need a rooted Nook.

WARNING: as usual, modifying system files you may risk to brick your Nook, unless you know what you are doing. You are strongly advised to make a full backup before proceeding. I don't take any responsibility if you decide to apply this mod.

WARNING-2: i extracted my framework.jar file directly from my Nook, that has firmware version 1.0. Therefore you should not proceed if yoour Nook has firmware 1.0.1 (possibly having a different firmware.jar; i'm not sure). If you want, i could apply the same mod also to 1.0.1, just let me know. Now it's also available the framework.jar for firmware version 1.0.1

USAGE:

download one of the attached framework.jar based on your firmware version

rename it framework.jar

(optional) make backup of current framework.jar, for future usage

adb pull /system/framework.jar original-framework.jar

remount system partition r/w

adb shell mount -o rw,remount -t ext2 /dev/block/mmcblk0p5 /system

push the downloaded framework.jar file to Nook

adb push framework.jar /system/framework

change the permissions of framework.jar file

adb shell chmod 644 /system/framework/framework.jar

reboot your Nook

adb reboot

Now, you can put any image you want (of course, best results are obtained using 800x600 image, 256 colors) into "screensavers" folder of the drive unit of the Nook (i.e. the drive used to sideload books), renaming it "shutdown.png" (please use the correct case, being the Nook case sensitive): this image will be used as shutdown image. In case the image is not present, the default one will be used (cold_boot_screen.jpg, attached to this message as reference).

The same mechanism is valid for the image displayed when the Nook shut down automatically for low battery level: in this case, you should put an image called "shutdownLowBattery.png" into the folder "screensavers". In case the image is not present, the default one will be used (cold_battery_low_boot_screen.jpg, attached to this message as reference).

I also attach 2 nice images that could be used as shutdown image.

For developers: the only class modified in framework.jar is ShutdownThread.

Hope this is useful,

regards
[Nook Touch General] yohoc:
Thanks traycold，I'll try it.
[Nook Touch General] ros87:
[DISCLAIMER]: I'm not responsible for whatever happens to your Nook2, what worked for me might not work so well for you.

Ok, with that out of the way, here's a simple way to theme your N2:

[NOTE]: Only tested on 1.0.1 rooted with noogie + uRamdisk (Not touchnootered!)

[Updated Note]: Do not attempt to do this with rootexplorer or similar tools, use adb only! - Thx dorino1

adb pull /system/framework/framework-res.apk

IMPORTANT: Make copy of this file and store it somewhere safe before doing anything else!

Open the apk with 7zip and replace whatever images you want in res\drawable-mdpi\ then close 7zip

adb shell
# mount -o remount,rw -t ext2 /dev/block/mmcblk0p5 /system
# exit
adb push framework-res.apk /system/framework/
adb reboot

That's it

If your N2 starts acting strange then just adb push that copy you made of framework-res.apk (you did remember to make a copy yes?)

[Updated Note]: If you do end up in a mess (bootloop, messed up graphics, etc) you can restore your Nook Touch with nookRestore
[Nook Touch General] yohoc:
thanks，ros87:) and traycold allso mentioned an easy way to modify it.
[Nook Touch General] yohoc:
hi traycold,I have changed my power off image succesfully with your framework.jar.Can you apply the mod to 1.01? Some of my friends may need it,thank you~
[Nook Touch General] ros87:
Well modifying classes in framework.jar is not really "easy", as it requires you to disassemble the classes.dex with baksmali and know your way around in the resulting format..

But ofc, when someone provide you with a prepatched package it's easy ;)

With the framework-res method you can do this yourself and also change a load of other graphical elements of your Nook UI, see attached pic :cool:
[Nook Touch General] traycold:
done! you can find it here.

(i used the framework.jar extracted from the manual update zip of 1.0.1 available at B&N)

actaully, with my mod there is no really need to disassemble anything: you just update the framework.jar with the one that you can download on this thread (the same way you would do for file framework-res.apk following your method), and you're done. Then you just need to copy the shutdown image on a given folder of your Nook usb connected to your PC, as you would do for any sideloaded book.

Another advantage is that you don't need to pack and update framework-res.apk any time you want to change shutdown image (or revert to default).

On the other end, it's true that you can modify other graphical elements, with your method.

Regards

PS: on a different subject, an indeed really useful mod would be to allow landscape orientation on default epub reader; at the moment i'm working to a mod allowing custom fonts (but not yet sure it would be possible)
[Nook Touch General] ros87:
I wasn't trying to disrespect your work mate, and I did say it was easy when someone is providing the jar, but in the end it still requires someone skilled in the art (that would be you) to create it trough disassembling and patching ;)

The framework-res method can be done by anyone with enough skills to use photoshop and 7zip.

I'm pretty sure you'd receive a lot of love if you came up with a mod for landscape :)
[Nook Touch General] traycold:
got your point! ;)
[Nook Touch General] yohoc:
:DThanks for your work. Also I'm looking forward to using custom fonts,because I'm a Chinese user and using Chinese fonts is a little complicated now.It makes me replace the original fonts with Chinese fonts or modify CSS in epub files.
[Nook Touch General] madigan82:
Could something like this lead to displaying the current book's cover as the screensaver?
[Nook Touch General] traycold:
Give a look here!
[Nook Touch General] madigan82:
Perfect thanks. Just replaced my nook so need to re-root it first.
[Nook Touch General] :
Of note, you MUST use adb if you go with this method. Using root-explorer or a similar file manager on the device will not work and will lead to a bricked device (flashing black and white screen) until a factory restore is initiated.
[Nook Touch General] ros87:
Ok, thanks for letting us know.

I've added it to my post.
[Nook Touch General] Jiv_au:
Stuffed this one up really badly....

Gaaaaaawwwwdddddd..... *kapluk* (sound of me hitting the floor in dismay).:(

I think I need to state this on this thread... As I have almost bricked my NookTouch (NT) and had almost lost my mind on it....

Firstly, I hate ADB (Android Debug Bridge). So, I use only SSHDroid + SSH client (putty + pscp) to do all my editing of my NT.

I think my problem was two folds:

1. Left for too long without a framework-res.apk file while I was trying to copy things (renamed original file first, then tried to copy the modified one in).

2. Permission on the framework-res.apk, which should be 644 (never mind if you don't get this, it's a linux/Unix thing).

And then **** hit the fan.... *Do'h!!*

And then I went down a rabbit hole of ROM reset (8 unsuccessful reboot) + rooting several times without success of getting things back in order (some apps were not rooted and Market wasn't working, of all things!!).

The saviour was a post on this forum suggesting an almost "clean", though not guaranteed, factory reset.

From a turned-off state, turn on TN with power button. Once you see the READ FOREVER screen HOLD DOWN the two side buttons - LEFT BOTTOM + RIGHT BOTTOM until you see a different screen.

This allowed me to get back to a factory default (requiring B&N registration). After the registration was completed I turned it off and inserted my TouchNooter SDcard for another root. This allowed me to get back to when I first got the NT out of the box.

And then I went about the tedious tasks of re-installing various apps in order to get back to my last known good state, which I am at now.

*sigh*:mad:

This is dangerous stuff, I must say...
[Nook Touch General] ros87:
And could easily have been fixed if you had taken a backup first ;)
[Nook Touch General] Jiv_au:
GAwwwwddDD... not again - STuFeD.:eek:

I give up ros87, the do-it-yourself modified framework-res.apk doesn't work for me using SSHDroid and SSH client.

Not sure how it is different from "adb push" command as this is simply a copy command.:confused:

But this time I had a complete backup image of my nook eMMC so recovering was relatively easy.

(except for the heart palpitation that was felt when deliberately deleting the Nook partitions as part of restore process) .

traycold's framework.jar worked for me, so I'll take that as good enough.

My new shutdown screen:
[Nook Touch General] pisuke:
hi . is it possible to boot via noogie and put directly via file manager the jarframework.jar? (excluding adb...) or are there problems of rw on that partitions?
[Nook Touch General] Jiv_au:
It's actually framework.jar file...

You'll need an operating system that can read the ext2 filesystem, which is where the /system/framework/ folder is that you want to access in order to write in framework.jar.

I haven't tried myself, but I assume this can only be done through Linux OS.

Have you thought about using Android Terminal Emulator? A bit tedious, but if you load the framework.jar to your /sdcard, then it's a matter of few lines of command to copy it over to the /system/framework/ folder.

e.g.

$ su
# mount -o rw,remount /system
# cd /system/framework
# busybox cp framework.jar framework.jar.OLD
# busybox cp /sdcard/framework.jar .
# chmod 644 framework.jar
# reboot -f

Don't forget to copy your new "shutdown.png" to your /screensaver folder (simply connect your STR to Windows computer via USB to see the drive).

P.S. your alias pisuke sounds like a dinosaur name...
[Nook Touch General] ros87:
As someone mentioned earlier, this can probably only be done trough adb, why I do not know :)

lol, the first time can be a bit unnerving yes ;)
[Nook Touch General] pisuke:
hi. pisuke is a boy take from Arale & Dr.Slump (Manga)......

i ve tried this solution:

- boot nook via noogie.img

- look via ubuntu the partitions but those are mounted only via read mode

[Nook Touch General] Jiv_au:
*spews coffee all over keyboard*

I was thinking about Doraemon manga. Close enough... I've only read Dr Slump up to tank vol4. Soramame Pisuka hadn't make an appearance yet.

I think you need to remount.

mount -o rw,remount .....

[Nook Touch General] xcutnr1:
Update for 1.1?

I've tried traycold's method using the 1.0.1 jar on 1.1 and using eded's .apk method, but neither is working for me on 1.1. I'm guessing that 1.1 is looking at file size or date or ??

I have checked permissions and tried both over adb as well as placing a copy over adb, fixing permissions, then using mv, but all with the same results. With eded's .apk method, I can get the image to display, but the rest of the device won't work anymore. It boots to the screensaver, but when I unlock and choose a launcher, the screen goes black (minus the menu bar). It might flash the launcher, then go black, but always the same result.

It seems like traycold's method is better for these images only, since it makes changing them later simple, but I'd be happy with either method if I can get one to work on 1.1. I'm looking into baksmali to see if I can get it working and try to find it myself, but having trouble getting it running on the Mac.

Traycold, what exactly did you change in the ShutdownThread class?

Thanks.
[Nook Touch General] traycold:
hi all,

you can find the modification for firmware 1.1 here.

As mentioned in the thread, if you don't need/want the "current book cover screensaver" mod, than you can just overwrite framework.jar (the same way as for previous firmware versions).

Regards
[Nook Touch General] xcutnr1:
traycold,

Thank you very much for this. It's exactly what I needed and more!

I'm curious, is the .apk being dynamically re-created at boot using the .jar or what? I'm still confused as to why replacing the .apk fails on 1.1.

Also for anyone who wants to change the "default" screensaver, we should just replace the files inside the authors folder, correct?

Great work.
[Nook Touch General] xcutnr1:
Tried and Failed!

I tried this tonight and lost access to everything but stock after reboot. I'm not sure what went wrong. Basically, I lost Button Savior, and had no way to select another launcher. I didn't delete the demo. I thought it was only going to come on after the first boot. At every boot is REALLY annoying to me. I restored from a backup and I'll be trying it again some time this week, this time deleting the demo and let you know how it goes. I didn't have time to get the .log file, but I can do that later this week, repeating exactly as I did if that would be helpful. Just let me know. Thanks again for the work, traycold.
[Nook Touch General] traycold:
hi,

actually i don't understand what you mean. Can you explain?

if you just want to change the default screensaver ("authors"), you don't need my mod, since it's a feature already provided by stock firmware.

Create a folder with the name you prefer, within folder "screesaver" of drive "Nook" (after connecting Nook to PC using USB), and put any image you want within the folder you created (possibly, greyscale JPG or PNG 800x600 pixel) and then go to settings, screen, and you may choose your screensaver (i.e. the name of the folder you created).

have a look here, another user apparently had an issue similar to the one you had. See if proposed fixes work for you, and let me know in case.

Regards
[Nook Touch General] xcutnr1:
I'm just trying to figure out why we can replace the .apk file on firmware 1.0 and 1.0.1, but doing so on 1.1 causes a boot loop.

I was talking about changing the DEFAULT screensaver so that we can have something other than authors displayed in the case where there is no book cover. I've read that deleting the authors folder can cause problems, and that this is the default for the system, but that the files in this folder can be changed.

I won't have time to try this for a few more days, but I'll post back here when I do with the results. Do you want me to go back and do the same thing again to capture the .log file?

Thanks again.
