Yeah, to reiterate: 20120112 is broken. It's been removed from the web server. It was built during a brief period last night when the source was bad, Dalingrin fixed it this morning apparently. I've posted a properly working build stamped as the 13th.

Later on I'm going to start a thread specifically regarding my nightly builds, so that if I build a bad zip we aren't clogging up the dev thread talking about it.
[Nook Color Android Development] 12paq:
Lol, thanks racks.

I do live near the Fattire (New Belgium) brewery. If you're ever in Colorado I'll buy ya a beer.

This is odd, i flashed *12 last night, but aside from some really funky behavior at the initializer its running pretty well. One SOD so far, but otherwise really good with the v8 gapps. Really wierd I guess.
[Nook Color Android Development] dreamhunterr:
Just some tips for those using the ICS build.

Sometimes, at least for me, the ROM lags really bad. So I did the following:

- ondemand governor, max 1.1 ghz

- I installed Autokiller (it's not a task killer but a tweaker for the way Android manages its running processes and available memory) and set the preset to Agressive.

Also, don't forget Deep Sleep only gets enabled with Wireless off (the sleep policy does not work properly in this regard).

So, while the second tip won't make the Nook any faster, at least for me it decreased a lot the ocasional slowdowns, keeping everything (relatively) smooth.

YMMV.

Having some problems here with my build. I'll try and launch settings or google+ app and it will start to launch but will thenjust fade out and go to my home screen. Heres a cat: http://pastebin.com/AZ0ycjig

Thanks for any help
[Nook Color Android Development] ericcorp:
I have the same problem, but every app does this. They launch, and then after a few seconds of blank screen it goes back to my home screen.
[Nook Color Android Development] Samiam303:
For you guys whose apps are closing -- that's the OneTimeInitializer problem. You just need to use adb to remove the onetimeinitializer apk from /system/app/, then clear the dalvik cache.

---------- Post added at 11:00 PM ---------- Previous post was at 10:58 PM ----------

I think I manually ran a build earlier in the day, so it may be the case that there was a *12 zip that worked and then it was replaced with a broken one when the build script ran at midnight. In any case, if it works then you don't have the bad one.

[Nook Color Android Development] redhawk79:
Oh yeah, I guess I forgot about that one. My adb is all screwey so I had to remount my /system/ from terminal but I got it working. Sam has a gapps hosted that doesn't include the OneTimeInit.apk In case anyone was wondering.

Running great now. Proud of this whole project and building myself and all the support and whatnot. It's pretty sweet.

[Nook Color Android Development] Rattor:
I seem to be having an odd issue where my Wifi doesn't want to connect. It shows the available access points, but when I select one to connect to (which shows excellent signal strength), it says "Connecting" but the signal strength indicator goes all the way down. After it stops trying to connect, the signal strength indicator shows full strength signal, and it shows the access point I was trying to connect to as "Saved", but it won't connect to it. Any pointers?

EDIT: And after searching some more, I set my router to G only, and my Nook has connected. Is this a limitation? Can I not use anything other than G only on my router?

Build breakage (explanation and solve)

Quick heads up-- the CMStats package was just added to mainstream cm9, and I had previously put it in the encore device. If you're doing a build you'll get an error about CMStats.apk being defined twice.

I've reverted my temporary patch locally, which will remove it from the device folder, and I'm doing a quick test to make sure everything's okay. Then I'll be pushing that and some other stuff to the public repo.

If you feel like buildng right this moment and are getting that error, you can temporarily fix this by removing the single line with CMStats \ in device/bn/encore/device.mk as well as the whole CMStats folder in there, and the build will resume.

Or wait like an hour for my build to finish and then repo sync and you'll get the changes anyway, assuming all goes well.

Update: fixes are pushed. You should be able to build again.
[Nook Color Android Development] insz:
Do you still have this reconnect problem? I have "wi-fi during sleep" set to never, and cpu spy shows that my NC is spending a lot of time in deep sleep. However, if the screen is off for a while, my wifi will not reconnect. It seems as though it doesn't turn on, as the settings will show my network as "out of range", and it won't show any other networks in the area.

If I turn off wifi, then turn it back on, it will reconnect to my network, and the scan will show about 5 other networks near by. I'm going to have to replicate the problem and try and search for issues in the logs, but it looks very much like wifi is never waking back up after sleeping.
[Nook Color Android Development] leapinlar:
I experience exactly the same symptoms. It will not reconnect on its own. I have to turn off wifi and back on before it reconnects. If I set it to never turn off, then it won't deep sleep.
[Nook Color Android Development] kcls:
Anything big being pushed into the repo? Life changing stuff, or just some small fixes?

Tapatalkin it from my IHO CM7.1'd, MIUI Themed Optimus V
[Nook Color Android Development] fattire:
What's left?

Small fixes. With most of the encore-specific stuff in the can, the big stuff now is likely to come from upstream.

So yeah, everyone else-- if you want the bleedingest-gross-I-can-see-bone edge version plus master Android skillz, you'll build yourself. And you can even add your own experimental commits from Cyanogenmod's review system if you want to test the untested!!

is it possible that there's no overcharge protection in CM9? My nook says it's 100% charged, but glowing "n" on the cable stays orange

[Nook Color Android Development] vessamj:
May I offer a suggestion?

I could be in over my head trying to answer this, if nothing else then it's just a thought; maybe your batterystats.bin system file was altered? sometimes when I connect my Nook to my computer my battery level in the status bar will suddenly display 100% immediately, when just a few seconds before it said (for example) 80%, and the "n" on the cable is still amber colored. I use BatteryCalibration app by marosige to fix it. When my nook is charging I'll look at the BatteryCalibration app to monitor the battery's mV until it reaches ~4200mV (which I heard is the max charge for a perfect Nook battery), then hit the "re-calibrate" button to reset the batterystats.bin system file. The app also says that after flashing a new ROM the batterystats.bin system file needs to be reset, I would think because it produces the same problem that I sometimes have when plugging the Nook into my computer. I hope this helps...
[Nook Color Android Development] iDidItAll4theNookie:
Have you tried clearing battery stats in CWM? Just from what I remember, battery stats can get kinda funky when switching ROMs.
[Nook Color Android Development] zequav:
I cannot even see the symbols. Long-pressing shows an empty bubble (tried with different themes). Clearing data doesn't help.

The default keyboard does show the alternate symbols in the bubble, but doesn't write anything when I try to select them.

Swiftkey X works, but it sucks on tablets (and I'm not buying the tablet version).

I've managed to get alternate symbols in Thumb Keyboard 4 if I enable "long press for numbers and symbols" (i.e., disable the popup). Since I usually only need the first alternate symbol, the workaround is enough for now.

[Nook Color Android Development] rabshear:
I know this is not the right thread for this question, but I can't find the answer anywhere. I have been building CM9 for my Nook Color using fattire's repo. I would like to do the same with my Evo 4g. I assume the same steps apply, and that's fine, but how do I get the device/htc/supersonic folder into my source? Do I need to edit my manifest files to get it? Any help would be appreciated.
[Nook Color Android Development] 12paq:
Have you tried turning off AES security?

Also, have you upgraded your router firmware to dd-wrt? The benefits of increased customizations are worth it.
[Nook Color Android Development] Samiam303:
Interestingly, Google recently confirmed that the battery stats.bin file only logs app's usage of the battery, so wiping does nothing related to charging. You can check out the article here for more info.
[Nook Color Android Development] unsivil_audio:
I can confirm charging is funky, however it seems actual percent display is funky too. I can flip on my nook after being unplugged for a while and battery will drop from 100% to 60 or 50 percent or whatever is the real battery level. I confirmed this with battery stats showing the same thing.

[Nook Color Android Development] EAK128:
I have the same router and there is no dd-wrt or openwrt support for this model. Also yes have tried turning off AES security. We were having similar issues with CM7 at first till someone found a fix for it, don't remember who or where.

CM9 lcd density

Have the same problem. I added the df.density=240 into build.prop and it certainly

increased the resolution, but I lost my status bar and the desktop was very flaky.

There has to be a "proper" way to increase the density and size of fonts, icons, menus, etc.
[Nook Color Android Development] 12paq:
Oh dang. I jumped the gun and assumed it was available because it is for my D-link DIR615.

Btw, my router is set to be only wep, a short SSID and under channel 5 for my CM7 HP TP to achieve stable wifi and my ICS Nook's wifi works great.. Wifi drivers are finicky with alpha builds.

I hope this helps.
[Nook Color Android Development] mrapollinax:
[Soapbox=WIFI]

By having your channel set to 5 you are unnecessarily causing yourself more issues as well as anyone neighboring you that can "hear" your AP. You need to understand that the only channels that do not overlap in the 802.11b/g spectrum are channels 1, 6 and 11 (in the US). Channel 5 will overlap with, channels 1 and 6 and if you want to look at the details channel 5 will overlap with channels 1-9. What I would recommend, if you are looking for "uncrowded" channels is to figure out which SSIDs are close to you, what channels they are on and then choose a channel 1,6 or 11 that has the furthest separation from the close by access points.

[Nook Color Android Development] vessamj:
You bring up a very relative point, good sir. I guess that means the app I mentioned is only good for monitoring the actual mV while charging. So (for instance) in the case of the battery percentage on the status bar saying 100% but the "n" light on the cord still being amber/orange one could use that app to confirm that the battery is at/near 4200mV before unplugging.
[Nook Color Android Development] ChrisDDD:
Same here. I just put a power widget on my main screen and when I unlock it, I just turn wifi off/on and it reconnect right away. No big deal, and with wifi set to turn off when the screen is off, I'm getting great battery life. Really loving ICS on the Nook, it offers so much more than a phone-based rom.
[Nook Color Android Development] ianPhillips1:
Try green power, you can configure it to force wifi on with the screen and vise versa & I get deep sleep

[Nook Color Android Development] wally2164:
I concur with 4200mV being the fully charged level. You might have a couple of digits higher, but once the meter stops going up you are golden to recalibrate. Mine was doing the same after the first build, then also with the 01152012 nightly.

Thanks! It took me a minute to figure out what to do with it. But once I got my mainfest updated everything synced right up. I really appreciate it.

Ok guys people that are having issues with connecting to wifi with dlink routers at least, I found the little fix you need to make it work; http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=990675

Using root explorer go to

/system/etc/wifi/ and find the tiwlan.ini file, at the top of the screen youll notice a button that says Mount R/W, click it. now press and hold on tiwlan.ini and open in text editor. go down about half way to find WifiAdhoc = 1 or something to that affect.

WiFiAdhoc is set to 1 on the cm7 builds but if you need change it to 0 for wpa/wpa2 will work.

Once that is set to 0, reboot, and connect to your internets.
[Nook Color Android Development] InsaneScientist:
Confirming that this works! Much obliged! :D

What did I actually just do, though? :eek: lol

Now I have a question, though:

Changing that line got me thinking about AdHoc mode, which I'd like to be able to use considering that's the only way I can get tethering to run on my phone.

Did changing that line disable any possibility of getting AdHoc mode to work?

And second, ignoring that issue completely, (pardon my ignorance on this subject) all the guides to enabling AdHoc entail wholesale replacement of the WPA_supplicant conf file. Would that have changed at all moving to ICS, or can I still just use the same file that people have posted?
[Nook Color Android Development] captive:
Wifi channels 12-13.

I found that I can't connect to my linksys router when I set wifi on channel 12 or 13.

The wifi network simply does not show up.

I remember on MIUI where was an option in wifi settings to enable all 14 channels (I believe using some of them is not allowed outside EU). Is it possible (somehow) to re-enable the full wifi range (or "regulatory domain", as I think it is called)?
[Nook Color Android Development] dreamhunterr:
I have this issue where most of the times I reboot/power on my Nook I can't start any app (widgets stop receiving content, apps don't open).

It's fixable by a Dalvik Cache wipe.

It also seems to happen only in a "traumatic" power off (when for some reason the Nook locks up or dies out of battery).

I "think" that somehow the Dalvik gets corrupted in this process, but maybe someone can shed some light on this?

I think some other people have described it and I hope we can narrow it down.
[Nook Color Android Development] onclebob:
Dreamhunterr > To fix this, clear dalvik, reboot, use an app to remove onetimeinitializer.apk from system/app . (or do it with adb).

I believe ES File Explorer can also do that. But you'll have to enable Root mode in settings.

I've tried calibrating the battery by removing battery stats through cwm; no green "n" on the charging cable when it's fully charged. I've tried BatteryCalibration app, charged to 100%, still no green "n". This is strange and potentially bad for my battery.
[Nook Color Android Development] InsaneScientist:
I'd buy Root Explorer. Worth every penny. IMO.

If I were to start over with no apps, and I could only buy one of Titanium backup and Root Explorer, I'd actually go with Root Explorer.

Not exactly... Some 2D acceleration is there, but video is most definitely not working properly at this point. Trust me, I'm running it. :D

Thanks to all the devs for this delicious ICS treat!

I'm running Sam's latest nightly on SD and ran across something interesting. The tablet rebooted itself at one point and when it restarted a message appeared that encryption of the tablet had failed, all data was lost, and it prompted me to do a factory reset. I had not selected the encryption option previously. Instead of allowing the factory reset, I shut it down and when it restarted again everything was fine. What a weird glitch!
[Nook Color Android Development] khaytsus:
Ever tried Ghost Commander? It's cleaner looking than Total Commander, and has a ton of features, looks pretty much the same list.

I still don't get why people get excited about Root Explorer... It remounts /system? Really? So do a dozen other free tools, including Ghost Commander.
[Nook Color Android Development] InsaneScientist:
Well, to be perfectly honest... when I first started messing with my first android phone, most of the others didn't exists - and the ones that did didn't work properly, so I bought it and it's worked well for me - I've never needed to try anything else. So my opinion may be a bit slanted. :)
