[Nook Color Android Development] drpratik:
HI all,

thanks for all the nightlies which are here.

I am facing one issue.

whichever i download,it says install aborted and unable to install.

I tried two different builds and both are giving errors.

I am using normal opera broswer and firefox to download it.

those files open fine on windows.

what do i do?

thanks.
[Nook Color Android Development] leapinlar:
How are you trying to install? CWM boot SD to emmc? From a prior CM install using CWM recovery or ROManager? Using SD recovery? It makes a difference in giving you advice.
[Nook Color Android Development] drpratik:
THANKS for your prompt reply.

I am trying to install from cwm recovery and its running from nook itself.

I am not trying to run android from SD card.

Pratik
[Nook Color Android Development] bigbob23:
CWM version 3.2.0.1?
[Nook Color Android Development] stolenmoment:
Recent nightlies can be OCd through Settings/Performance, and the settings stick now. Noticeable improvement.

This led me to re-install adw.launcher in place of Trebuchet. Having large icons in a small grid drove me nuts.
[Nook Color Android Development] drpratik:
Absolutely right.

What should I do.

Thanks.
[Nook Color Android Development] dirtsky:
Well just got the latest nightly installed and I must say this has came a long way in the past couple of weeks. Its actually pretty functional now with out any fc's yet. But nice work devs.
[Nook Color Android Development] leapinlar:
Are you trying to install with the second choice "apply update from sdcard"? It only works if named exactly update.zip and is in the root directory. Try "install zip from sdcard" instead.
[Nook Color Android Development] bigbob23:
What I do is to copy the zip file to the SD card then go into recovery. I then choose "advanced" and wipe the Dalvik cache. I then return to the previous screen and choose "install zip from sdcard" and "choose zip from sdcard". I choose the update zip file and install it. I then install fix-bootanimation.zip, telephony-permission-fix.zip and wifi_SOD_patch.zip. All these run successfully and from the main recovery screen I do "reboot system now".
[Nook Color Android Development] Techienana:
Wow, thanks so much! I had been hesitant to update because of the increasing size of the nightly but you have totally solved the problem. I erased and re-formatted my 16gb card and my son's 8gb card, used your image file and then installed the latest nightly with no problems at all. :)
[Nook Color Android Development] Lsjreadingpa:
I was hoping someone could help me with an annoying problem, i apparently have 2 stock gallery apps on my nook. This doubles everything i have in my DCIM folder and when i open the gallery it shows all the duplicate folders there. How do i fix this? I am using the latest CM9 Nightly.
[Nook Color Android Development] leapinlar:
The problem is because the nightly comes with one and gapps comes with another. (gallery2.apk (nightly) and gallerygoogle.apk(google)). Use root explorer to go into /system/app and delete one or the other. I'm not sure it matters which one, maybe someone else knows.
[Nook Color Android Development] leapinlar:
BTW, another "feature" of ICS that I discovered is that the Titanium Backup feature of "freezing" system apps no longer works. But ICS has that capability built in. Go to settings, applications, select all, and pick the system app you no longer want to be operational. Under its properties is a button "disable". Press it and it has the same effect as freezing. You can always "enable" it later if you want.

So for the poster above with two gallerys, another option might be to just disable one in settings instead of deleting.
[Nook Color Android Development] Lsjreadingpa:
I used Astro to go to system/app i see 2 numbered galleries as well as the googlegallery and i get an error while trying to delete any of them, not sure what to do now.
[Nook Color Android Development] leapinlar:
Astro is not a root file manager. You cannot delete system apps with it. If you do not have root explorer get either ES Explorer or File Expert in the market. Both are free.

Or try the disable feature I just talked about in my last post. However, if you have two numbered galleries, it might be best to delete one.
[Nook Color Android Development] Lsjreadingpa:
a problem that i have had ever since i rooted my nook, i can not gain access through es explorer or any other root file manager. As soon as i try to go higher in the file structure the app either closes or it does nothing.
[Nook Color Android Development] leapinlar:
You may not be rooted then. Open Superuser in your app tray and see if it works. Look and see if es explorer is listed as approved to have root access. One other user said his superuser.apk was messed up and posted a new version to flash. Look back on this thread. You may need to do that.

Btw, are you running on SD? If you are and you had CM7 on it before flashing CM9, that could be the source of your problems. With CM9 SD installs you need to start with a clean SD because the installer does not format to get rid of the old CM7 files. It just copies over the top of them, possibility leading to duplicate apks.
[Nook Color Android Development] Lsjreadingpa:
Yea something is messed up somewhere, even when given root access es file still didnt work correctly and file expert did not remove the apps even with root access. I am running cm9 off of internal NOT the sd card.
[Nook Color Android Development] leapinlar:
I recommend you back up with Titanium Backup or other backup software and go to recovery and wipe everything. System, data, cache then reflash the nightly and fixes, then restore your apps you backed up. (restore only the installed apps, not system)
[Nook Color Android Development] Lsjreadingpa:
k, ill do that tonight, not sure what difference it will make, i did that before i installed cm9. Ill let ya know how it goes
[Nook Color Android Development] Sam Adams:
Thanks! - this saves a step for us SD booters. Might I suggest that Verygreen might use this too in his initial instructions... although I don't know how big the CM7 nightlies are getting.

Another thing I discovered by mistake that really helps in setup for those of us running from SD: Verygreen's instructions want you to boot after the initial CM flash (SP1 or SP2 for CM9). This is to help setup WiFi before going on and installing gapps ... However, about a week ago I forgot the boot step and went ahead and loaded both the CM9 nightly and gapps, flashed them and then did the initial boot. Low and behold this gets you straight into Android Setup. The first thing you do there is setup WiFi - and restoring your google account & apps is

much

easier from there.
[Nook Color Android Development] leapinlar:
Did you see my edited post to NOT restore your system apps with Titanium Backup after wiping and reflashing? That could be your problem too if you did that before.
[Nook Color Android Development] webdroidmt:
@leapinlar

Thanks for doing this but I can't seem to download it. When I click either d/l button nothing happens, is this a site that I have to register or login?

Mike T
[Nook Color Android Development] leapinlar:
No, but sometimes you have to try several times. It gets its d/l slots full or something. Just keep trying.
[Nook Color Android Development] webdroidmt:
Ok thanks. I'll try later.

Mike T
[Nook Color Android Development] Samiam303:
That's awesome! It's an enlarged version of the ICS-fixed image, not the old one that everyone had issues with? If so, I'll happily upload it to my server. Thanks for helping everyone out!

EDIT: Man, Megashares may be the worst download site I've ever had the misfortune of using.
[Nook Color Android Development] leapinlar:
It is the version you already have, just expanded. Just keep trying with megashares, once on your site, no worries. LOL
[Nook Color Android Development] bigbob23:
Since the Nook Color does not have either a camera or a microphone, I thought I would try removing some apps from the nightly update*.zip file. I unzipped the file and deleted the following: Camera.apk, Phone.apk, SoundRecorder.apk and VoiceDialer.apk the rezipped the file.

When I tried to install it in ClockWork recovery, the process aborted. Is there something I missed or can this not be done?
[Nook Color Android Development] Bonnie_Raitt:
I just upgraded from 0118 to 1030. Worked fine.

I also tried running wifi_SOD_patch and telephony-permission-fix. Both of these failed with a message about signature verification error. Can anyone explain what's going on and/or how to fix? Thanks
[Nook Color Android Development] Samiam303:
Unless there's a reason you need to, I'd steer away from modifying the zip file before flashing it -- it would be way less of a hassle to just remove the apps with Titanium Backup or something after you've flashed them.

Do you think you could upload it to Mediafire or some other more usable host? Even when I manage to get past the "no download slots" error, it seems to just time out when trying to load the actual file for download.

You just need to select "Toggle signature verification" in the "install zip from sd" menu, then they'll work. The zips aren't signed, but they don't need to be -- it just needs to not check for signatures.
[Nook Color Android Development] leapinlar:
I just did some experimenting. I burned my new expanded SD image file to my spare SD. It wrote the new image effectively wiping everything else off of it. I copied Sam's latest nightly, my combo fix zip and Sam's gapps zip from his site into boot. I made sure my combo fix zip was named update-wifi... Then removed the card from my PC and inserted it in nook. Booted the Nook. The install script partitioned the card, installed the nightly, installed the combo fix zip, and finally the gapps zip. I then booted and the bootanimation was correct, and ended up in android setup. Set up wifi, time zone, and signed into google account. All done. Easy Peasy.

Edit: If you want to install other update- zips along with the nightly, just make sure the letter after update- is lower in the alphabet than the nightly. The script installs them alphabetically after the dash and you don't want the fixes installed before the nightly. I don't think there is any limit to the number installed as long as there is room in boot for them. Also remember that Sam's bootanimation fix zip has some sort of bug that crashes on SD installation and "b" is higher in alphabet than "e" (for encore).
[Nook Color Android Development] seth.i.simmons:
I actually have been modding mine both in CM7 and with these new ICS nightlies. Just do it using Root Explorer on your NC, and there won't be any issues at all, as long as you are just deleting non-essentials. I get my nightlies to around 84mb after removing all the bloat. It also makes it easier to tweak all the things I like to tweak beforehand. Trust me, it is very doable!
[Nook Color Android Development] jschill31:
Hello,

Don't unzip the file if you want to remove anything, it will no longer be signed. Instead double click on it so you can see the files and highlight files you do not want and hit the delete key. This will delete them without unzipping the overall file thus retaining the signed permission. I would HIGHLY advise against removing what you listed. They cause no harm and more often break other applications. There is a reason why they are there, even camera.

Cheers
[Nook Color Android Development] clshores:
What is the trick for one to download the nightly update files? It always seems to come to a screeching halt for me. Let it run overnight and it was interrupted and started it angain and left for work. Came back and it was interuppted again. Only made it to 81% in almost 18 hours.

Is there a mirror somewhere?
[Nook Color Android Development] leapinlar:
Are you downloading from Sam's site? I have always found it to be very fast. It must be something on your end. There is another user posting nightlies, but I have found his server slower than Sam's.
[Nook Color Android Development] clshores:
http://sphsolutions.net/android/Encore/Nightlies/CM9/ is the link I am downloading from. Maybe I will try from a different computer and see if it makes a difference. My connection is clocking at 20M right now so I know it isn't a bandwidth problem on my end.
[Nook Color Android Development] bmar08:
--------------------------

what all files are you removing to get it down to only 84mb?
[Nook Color Android Development] aeidian:
I thought I saw somewhere video had been fixed, but can't seem to find it now. Am I imagining it or are the nightlies making Netflix and other video functional?
[Nook Color Android Development] bretzke:
The video fix is being test now by fattire. It has not been committed to the CM9 build. So no, it's not in the nightlies....yet.
[Nook Color Android Development] clshores:
Downloaded fine on the NC. Bizarre!
[Nook Color Android Development] leapinlar:
Sam, I just sent you a PM with a new link. See if that is any better. Once it's on your site, no problem.
[Nook Color Android Development] seth.i.simmons:
Hmm, can't remember the full list, but some things are apps like camera, telephony, basically any phone or camera based apps. I also delete rommanager, since I already have the updated version installed, I remove all of the live wallpapers and live wallpaper apps, ringtones, the 10mbs of videos, and various other things. REMEMBER - this will only work if you are just upgrading, the only things I tweak when installing fresh are the build.prop file and the tiwlan.ini file. AGAIN - YMMV. what works for me could break your install.

An to the response about not unzipping the file. Like I said, if you use Root Explorer, you can unzip, mod, and zip the file all on your nook, and it still stays very flashable, and I have never had any issues doing it. Make a backup, mod a nightly, and try it. Worst that could happen is you have to restore the backup you just made.

Edit: just got the latest nightly down to 79mb.
[Nook Color Android Development] ibilln:
Agree with that(!) Still, LL did some work.

[Nook Color Android Development] dirtsky:
I must say this pretty sweet. Runs pretty good on my nook. But I'm going to stick with cm7 until this is spittle more stable. But overall awesome work.
[Nook Color Android Development] Samiam303:
That sounds like the onetimeinitializer problem. See if you have onetimeinitializer.apk in /system/app/. If so you just have to use adb to remove it then clear the dalvik cache.

Should have mentioned this - yes they're included.
[Nook Color Android Development] ahfo:
Hi, Samiam303,

Thanks a lot for your awesome work!

It looks great, but the gapps don't work very well, it keeps showing the message of "Unfortunately, the process com.google.process.gapps has stopped." Do you have any idea about this.

I downloaded all the files you mentioned in the post, wiped data and cache, and flashed in the sequence of

update-encore-20120113.zip

telephony-permission-fix.zip

fix-bootanimation.zip

gapps-ics-4.0.3-sam-noinit.zip

no any other app has been installed.
[Nook Color Android Development] xdp:
Same here. Maybe we need to wipe data? Was hoping to avoid that.
[Nook Color Android Development] fbueller:
Is it possible to install on a micro-SD card instead? I have CM7 running on emmc great, but would like to play with this a bit. I've searched and can't find anything on how to create a bootable card...
[Nook Color Android Development] webdroidmt:
@Samiam303

Hi Sam,

I posted yesterday in the dev thread regarding me using build 0111 and the gapps small file. Just letting you know the gapps is working great and good to see the build seems to really be coming along.

Previously, I was getting SODs when the screen turned off either by itself or when I turned it off via power button on Sneak2. Now, I haven't experienced a SOD and I let it sleep last night overnight.

As per suggestion from dreamhunterr in another thread, I installed Autokiller Memory Optimizer along with my fav No Frills CPU set to 1.1ghz and so far, it's running very well. Thanks again for your contribution, it's appreciated.

Before trying to flash the ICS gapps, rename it to gapps-gb-<whatever>. The installer looks for gapps-gb*

I tried this a bit but switched to an eMMC install, which seems to run a bit more smoothly.
[Nook Color Android Development] Nburnes:
Fantastic. :D
[Nook Color Android Development] eyecrispy:
Just flashed this build. Thank you!

A few things -- the default launcher doesn't seems to have a home button? Is that the way it's supposed to be?

Also, can this kernel be OC'd? If so, how do I do it? I can't seem to find it in settings.
[Nook Color Android Development] k8108:
This is absolutely the BEST rom to hit my NC! I can't believe how well it runs.

Question: Is there a way to change the LCD density? I have ICS running on my HD2 and am able to change the density in system/build.prop (and i have changed LCD density in most of my roms, due to old, tired eyes)

I have scoured build.prop from top to bottom and cannot find the line with LCD density on it. Any suggestions? I am wanting to go to 240

(lcd density changer from the market did not work - tried it!)

I have a home button, and I was able to oc with voltage control.
[Nook Color Android Development] eyecrispy:
I'm sorry. I didn't mean home button. I meant Menu button.
[Nook Color Android Development] Nburnes:
Menu button only appears when it needs to inside apps. It will be three vertical dots.
[Nook Color Android Development] eyecrispy:
Thanks. Is that just with Trebuchet? Or is that a "feature" in ICS? I kind of liked having the Menu button always available.
[Nook Color Android Development] adamdelozier:
If you use adw, its just like it always is.
[Nook Color Android Development] gsquirrel02:
ClockWorkMod problem?

I'm sorry, apparently it's only me... I can't get my CM9 to reboot into ClockWorkMod recovery, it'll only boot into standard recovery whether I boot using Power-N or from the CWM menu. I'm running the latest nightly (Jan 14) from an SD card and it seems to work great so far except this issue. Obviously I've only been able to apply the update-encore since I can't reboot into CWM to flash anything else.

Ok all - what am I missing here?

(Awesome job on these builds, much appreciated!)
[Nook Color Android Development] adamdelozier:
can you try installing cwm from rom mgr?
[Nook Color Android Development] leapinlar:
Here, try this:

Download it in Sam's original post on this thread. He was able to compress it even more so it downloads faster.
[Nook Color Android Development] michaelg1030:
Hate to ask, but I can't search effectively on the xda app. So has the wifi and deep sleep issue been fixed in any of the latest nightlies?
[Nook Color Android Development] leapinlar:
SOD has not been fixed, but I think deep sleep is better. But wifi still does not reconnect after sleep.
[Nook Color Android Development] afzalarsalan:
Correct me if I am wrong but isn't that patch for 3d/2d acceleration. Fattire posted that the video driver (OMX) has not been updated yet. So in theory, Netflix still doesn't work
[Nook Color Android Development] ibilln:
Somewhat better - fewer mysterious steps. Thanks!
[Nook Color Android Development] Samiam303:
Thanks to Leapinlar for resizing the image -- the link in the OP now leads to a compressed version of the image he uploaded, reduced to an 8.3mb download instead of ~40mb. If anyone tries it out, leave a post to confirm it works for everyone else!

Nope it was a clean install and nothing backed up.
[Nook Color Android Development] JonMayer:
Anyone having issues with connecting to WPA protected wifi? I didn't see it listed as a bug, but I'm sure it is.

Thanks for putting out these builds. I respect fattire's view on building your own, but I don't have the time right now. I love to be able to download and flash relatively quickly.

Hey Sam.

Fattire has just released a test version of the h/w accelerated cm9, I understand its completely buggy at this time but could you please make a build of it so we can see/test it.

[Nook Color Android Development] fattire:
Don't want to build it yourself? ;)
[Nook Color Android Development] crono141:
{rageface} No! :p
[Nook Color Android Development] patruns:
And who didn't see that one coming? :P
[Nook Color Android Development] Samiam303:
I'm going to give some thought as to whether to move the nightlies onto the ics-test branch or not. As Fattire has said before, being able to use bleeding-edge experimental code right away is definitely the advantage of building it yourself, so if you want to try it out before it's in the nightlies I'd absolutely encourage you to give that a shot -- it's really not as daunting as you may think it would be! :)
[Nook Color Android Development] beeaton:
Currently running 1/31 nightly from Sam and Sling adapter from Dish seems to work pretty well. Video seems fluid without any stuttering.

[Nook Color Android Development] grayfoxmg1:
I love these CM9 nightly builds, I just have one question. Is it possible to have the fix-boot-animation.zip incorporated into the next build? It isn't that big a deal, just a slight annoyance. If not than that's cool.
[Nook Color Android Development] Samiam303:
There's not an easy way (that I know of) to integrate it into the build, at least until cyanogenmod adds their official CM9 boot animation. The flashable zip is the easiest way to handle it, just leave it in your sdcard for when you need it.
[Nook Color Android Development] MrColdbird:
Actually it is very simple... Grab yourself the testsign.jar file, then add a unzip call to your build bot script and remove the Meta data...

Then add in the fixed animation, zip it again and process the zip with testsign.jar to resign it before making it available to the public.
