If you look at my post of February 12 (and one later on February 15) on the work-in-progress thread you will see that I created a patch file to put soft keys on the 240 dpi screen. I eventually pulled it, but if, after you read the post, you want it, PM me with your email address and I will send it to you. I don't think it will get put in the build because of what it does to the tablet gui at 160. But it works flawlessly if you stay at 240. It is easy to install, just flash with CWM recovery.

Edit: That script that I posted here a few posts back is just the empty script, not the real soft key 240 patch.

Volume+ no longer works

Is there a way to either get Nook Tweaks or Volume+ to work again. This new nightly doesn't support it. Please help. I can't hear my nook... Thanks...

Nope, still a no-go... ??? jf

Does this new wifi module fix the problem with some routers where they have to be in 802.11g only for the NC to connect? My Nook connects fine to my DIR-655 with CM7, but I have to switch it to G-only with CM9.
[Nook Color Android Development] michelbites:
That version does not work with the current nightly build. It asks me to alter the Music Effects properties but there isn't one. I don't know what happen to it. The first nightly had it. But anything after that I don't see the settings...

The keyboard and a few apps, particularly Opera Mobile, are HUGE on the screen...any way to adjust this back down? I've tried playing around with LCD density but to no avail...
[Nook Color Android Development] leapinlar:
Actually you can. There is a modified CWM recovery (version 3.0.2.8) that can be used with SD installs. It has been modified to read and write to the partitions on the SD. BUT IT CANNOT BE USED TO FLASH NIGHTLIES!! It can flash other install files like the fix boot animation zip, etc., BUT NOT NIGHTLIES. If you try to flash a nightly, it will flash it to emmc, so don't try. However, it can be used to backup and restore your whole SD install (/boot, /system, /data and /cache). It puts the backup files on your SD under clockworkmod/backup. This is what I use it for. You can use it to wipe your SD partitions (/system and /data). And you can clear dalvik-cache and cache. But note, the SD install uses the cache partition on emmc and shares it with emmc so clearing it for SD clears emmc cache too. Never wipe /boot, you will lose the verygreen script and this CWM you just put on your system.

I have it set up as an alternate boot in the SD boot menu. When booting, hold the N key until the boot menu comes up. Then switch to SD and Alternate Boot (the third choice). CWM will come up and you can do everything you would normally do with CWM, (EXCEPT FLASHING NIGHTLIES - don't try!).

To install to your SD card, unrar the attached file and you will have uAltImg and uAltRam. Place those in the boot partition of your SD card and you're done.

The Verygreen recovery is still there as the second choice on the boot menu and should still be used for flashing nightlies or other ROMs.

EDIT: There was a problem with the original 3.0.2.8 version hanging after a dalvik-cache wipe. It still cleared the cache but locked up not really letting the user know if it was successful or not. So I have uploaded a revised version that should work better.

Edit2: This thread has been discontinued by the original poster so I moved the file to my tips thread which is linked in my signature. The file is now attached to the second post and described in item B5. It is now v6.0.1.2.
[Nook Color Android Development] afzalarsalan:
Just skip that step by closing and reopening the app and it will still work
[Nook Color Android Development] tnpapadakos:
AWESOME...thanks, backups is exactly why i want it:)
[Nook Color Android Development] leapinlar:
BTW, that script that I posted earlier for modifying build.prop on the fly does not work with the Verygreen recovery on SD installs, but it works with the modified CWM recovery I just posted.

---------- Post added at 12:50 PM ---------- Previous post was at 12:44 PM ----------

I don't think it has any effect on router issues. It was only modified to cut down on SODs. And it's not new. It was modified in October 2011.

---------- Post added at 01:03 PM ---------- Previous post was at 12:50 PM ----------

No. It has been speculated that the problem is caused by the new kernel and library files that were created when opengl was introduced on or around the end of January. If you want it smaller try going for an older nightly. I think the devs have this on their list to fix.
[Nook Color Android Development] 911jason:
Thank you. :)
[Nook Color Android Development] michelbites:
I get a forceclose every time I try to alter the volume sorry This doesn't work.
[Nook Color Android Development] tnpapadakos:
only thing that bugs me about this is the laggy screen rotation...
[Nook Color Android Development] afzalarsalan:
This is in the Volume + app correct. The Nook Tweaks app doesn't work with ics. I just reinstalled Volume + and cleared the app data and it worked fine for me

[Nook Color Android Development] michelbites:
I'm still getting force close errors and it just wont work. Volume+ just keeps closing. I think it has something to do with the Music setting that is missing in the sound settings in the control panel
[Nook Color Android Development] bigbob23:
I thought the wifi SOD fix was incorporated into the 109 kernel, which is included in the nightlies.
[Nook Color Android Development] tnpapadakos:
there have been mixed comments on this; some saying that it was incorporated, and others saying they still use the fix...if its not necessary anymore, i'll take it out of the next one...samiam330, can you weigh in on this?
[Nook Color Android Development] grayfoxmg1:
Having it in doesn't seem to do anything detrimental to the rom, so why not leave it in while we wait for sam to say something
[Nook Color Android Development] frankusb:
The kernel changes are in the MMC driver (which the wifi driver uses). The wifi driver changes are different.

A co-worker with CM7 tried the kernel only changes and still experienced the SOD. Adding the wifi changes allowed him to stop the SOD on CM7.

Based on that, I would say it's still necessary.

Frank
[Nook Color Android Development] Samiam303:
There was an update to the kernel that was supposed to help with the SOD issue, but the flashable SOD fix uses a different method to try and fix them. Some people have reported that there's still a benefit to flashing that even with the new kernel, and I haven't heard anyone report any issues related to it, so I'd say there's no harm in including it.
[Nook Color Android Development] jewnersey:
Is there a flashable zip for the tweaks mentioned earlier? I wanna run the latest opengl build with the tweaks so I can play with chrome.
[Nook Color Android Development] Temetka:

There is an additional tweak I needed to get WiFi to work correctly at work (Aruba Access points) that is mentioned in this post: http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=21518938&postcount=1693

it requires editing tiwlan.ini, i did it via adb but I'm guessing it could be rolled into the ROM at the get go if needed.
[Nook Color Android Development] tnpapadakos:
i looked at the tiwlan.ini....couldn't find it in there...is it a line that needs to be added, or edited? I read that post you referred to, it doesn't say how its done...let me know
[Nook Color Android Development] crono141:
Does anybody have a flashable zip of CM9 with onskreen/cornerstone cooked into the ROM?
[Nook Color Android Development] mrapollinax:
bah... i referenced the wrong post. Here is the correct one:

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?p=21457743&highlight=tiwlan+ini#post21457743

It is an edit to the tiwlan.ini file. you need to change the WiFiAdhoc setting to = 1. By default it is set to = 0.

At home I use WPA/PSK and the default works just fine. I just made the change here at work where I was unable to connect to any WiFi AP. At work we're using Aruba APs and 802.1x with MS-CHAPv2 authentication.
[Nook Color Android Development] seth.i.simmons:
You just look for a line that says "wifiadhoc = 1" and change it to 0. I have to do that to connect to my U's WiFi, and some other networks. Have figured out what exactly causes that to be needed, I'm guessing a certain type of WiFi, like B or G.

Edit: ^^^ Beat me to it
[Nook Color Android Development] mrapollinax:
yeah, i have a lot of experience with wireless networks and I can't figure out why the adhoc setting would allow/prevent my connection to my work network. However doing a quick google search of tiwlan.ini adhoc you see that a lot of Android devices have this work around for different wireless problems.
[Nook Color Android Development] EAK128:

[Nook Color Android Development] leapinlar:
Yes. Use install zip from SD option.
[Nook Color Android Development] JonMayer:
Wow, missed all those previous posts. Sorry for my reiteration.

As someone pointed out to me (I have the same router) turn off adhoc networks on the Nook to get it working.

Under system/etc/wifi edit the tiwlan.ini

You're looking for WifiAdhoc = 1. Change it to 0, save, turn off wifi, turn on wifi, crisis averted.

Ok I dont see an option to wipe dalvik cache in clockwork recovery.

What am I missing?
[Nook Color Android Development] bretzke:
You can only wipe dalvik with Recovery if you installed the nightlie on eMMC and using unmod'ed CMR. If you are running the nightlie from a SD card (verygreen's script), there is no option. There is a dalvik wipe in Titanium Backup, but I think that too wipes the dalvik on eMMC no matter if you are running from a SD or eMMC.

Dave
[Nook Color Android Development] Temetka:
I should have mentioned that earlier.

Yeah CM9 is running off of the EMMC. Pretty smoothly minus the sleep of death issue.

[Nook Color Android Development] Temetka:
So that being said, where do I got to wipe Dalvik? Is that in the OS itself or is there some 3rd party app I need? Sorry for all the questions but I have never done an upgrade, just a wipe and reload of the newest version.
[Nook Color Android Development] libertus77:
Wipe Dalvik is in the Advanced menu in cwm.
[Nook Color Android Development] Temetka:
Thanks!

I was able to wipe dalvik and install the latest update from zip. Rebooting of EMMC Android upgrade says it's optimizing my apps. Let's see how it goes.

3 minutes later....

Everything appears to be working. Nook app, amazon store, google market and so on. Cool. Only time will tell about the sleep of death issue.

[Nook Color Android Development] tnpapadakos:

[Nook Color Android Development] Temetka:
I have my min clock set at 300 right now. If this build SOD's on me, I will fiddle with that. I would be concerned about decreasing battery life.

That's pretty much the main thing that the stock OS has going for it. I could turn off my wifi and the nook could for about 2 weeks before I would need to recharge it. I haven't tested the full battery life on it now that it has ICS because I have been busy exploring various apps and widgets for it and to be honest, haven't thought about turning the wifi on. Although I have noticed my battery life is around 2-3 days.

Like Dave said, you only use CWM recovery if you installed to emmc. If you did, then wipe dalvik is on the advanced menu. If you are installed on SD, go to the thread on SD installs for information on installing the nightly.

Edit: Wow was I late on this. Ignore it. LOL
[Nook Color Android Development] leapinlar:
If you don't turn on wifi (especially to leave on all the time), I doubt you will get any SODs. They seen to be triggered by having wifi on, esp full time.
[Nook Color Android Development] jewnersey:

How feasible is it that we can have the boot animation changed to this http://www.reddit.com/r/Android/comments/pzex3/new_boot_animation_for_cm9_040/
[Nook Color Android Development] leapinlar:
Edit build.prop in /system to add the line ro.sf.lcd_density=240. If you want it a different density than 240, just replace it with whatever you like. Be warned though, if you go to anything higher than 160, you switch to "phone mode" and you lose your soft keys.

Car-o-Dope was written by a couple skilled Evo 4G owners, but it can be applied to any phone/tablet. Main thing is you need the paid version of ROM Toolbox (or an older version of the free version, I have an .apk of an old one that allows you to do it if you need it.)

The other tweaks are simple build.prop and init.d tweaks that can be used on any Android device. All you need is Notepad++ or Ubuntu to edit the build.prop or make a init.d file (I prefer to edit my build.prop before flashing.)

Thank you. It does work. But you do not need to have it in a flashable zip. Just go to the fixanimation zip and extract the bootanimation.zip file from it and place that file in the /data/local folder and it is permanently changed to that animation. No need to flash after each nightly.

[Nook Color Android Development] leapinlar:
You are right that the file download is not working now. I played some games with the files to get them to attach to the board because they were too large. First, I stripped out part of the bootanimation.zip file (part1) and created a rar of the smaller file and attached it to the board. Then I made a rar of the removed piece and attached it.

To reconstitute the file, unrar both pieces and put part1 back into bootanimation.zip. (Actually I found that using the smaller bootanimation.zip works just as well as the reconstituted whole file.)

These files will make a bootanimation.zip file that you can put in /data/local directly without needing to flash anything.

Edit: Files removed. Official animation now included in builds.

TeamHackSungs CM9 build on the Captivate used to have a switch built into the build.prop file to switch from MTP to UMS. Now they have the default set just as it was on Gingerbread. Works just fine on our phones.

ICS not having support for UMS is a misunderstanding. The Galaxy Nexus does not support it (no ext sd) but ICS itself, does.

This is how I understand it, as it was explained in various threads. I may be wrong....
