I'm all for improvements, but I keep seeing a lot of posts where people are having problems with ICS Gapps, or I should say the Gapps that they flashed for this specific ROM. I'll check it out, but won't be happy if I give up my old Gapps and have problems.
[Nook Color Android Development] racks11479:
I believe that modded CWM recovery for SD was made for my original flashing ROMS to SD thread before verygreen came up with his Agnostic method. And even with gapps for that thread I modified the updater-script to flash to the correct partitions always. I never assumed and gave the responsibility that CWM will flash to the correct partitions even though they were mounted in the recovery.fstab.

And you are correct leapinlar as to advise people not to flash any nightlies with that Alternate recovery.

However that one is based on CWM 3.0.2.8 and is very outdated. I'm not 100% sure how that particular one handles ext4 partitions. I believe there were issues with that particular version and was recommended to use 3.2.0.1 and above. Or I could just be talkin' out my arse and that one was modded by someone else and it might work just fine.. just a precautionary note here. :)

Thanks,

Racks
[Nook Color Android Development] leapinlar:
Racks, you are right this came from your thread. But it was made by one of the users there (TD...something). I have used it for everything, wiping, flashing, backing up, restoring. Works perfectly for me. It is outdated, but the only thing 3.2.0.1 added over 3.0.2.8 was the ability to backup and restore the 5GB data partitions on the new Nooks. SD installers don't have to worry about that. It was the 3.0.1.0 version that had problems with ext2 partitions the original Nooks had. 3.0.2.8 fixed that.

Thanks for the input.
[Nook Color Android Development] racks11479:
Ah ok, I stand corrected... carry on! :D

After installing the nightly 16 I couldn't connect to my wireless reliably and when it did connect I couldn't get to anything on the net. Went back to the one before and no problems.
[Nook Color Android Development] lickarock:
Hmmm....

So I downloaded the march 17th nightly, gapps, telephony fix, and boot animation fix. I opened up recovery, wiped data/cache/dalvik 3 times, formatted system, and then applied the nightly, then telephony, then gapps, then boot fix... now it won't boot. The cyanoboot screen opens up, but once it tries to boot up android it just goes to a black screen and hangs. The screen is lit, but its just straight black. Not a boot loop either... it just hangs. Any insight into where I screwed the pooch?
[Nook Color Android Development] ShutterPeep:
SOD still encountered after March 17 nightly upgrade. Installed WIFI sod fix and gapps, wiped Dalvik cache.

But thanks for the great work on ICS!

Edit: Actually, it's not really SOD because it gets totally drained after putting to sleep. I guess this is a deep sleep issue.
[Nook Color Android Development] leapinlar:
Three times? Wow, you wanted to be sure. What happens if you use the boot menu to open emmc manually? Also can you get to recovery?
[Nook Color Android Development] insz:
I had the same thing happen to me. I went back into CWM, and through ADB saw there were no files in /system.

I fixed it by first flashing an older image, letting that boot, then flashing a newer one on top. I'm not totally sure if it was an older image from eyeballer, or if it was one of Samian's that I flashed to get it working (it was late).

Hope that helps.
[Nook Color Android Development] leapinlar:
You know, it could be the new backup script in the newer nightlies that does not like trying to install to a formatted /system and aborts. Like he suggested, install a nightly produced before 3/10 then immediately flash over it with the new. Should be no need to boot in between.
[Nook Color Android Development] MechaGen:
If I understand correctly the sequence you followed, you need to go back to recovery and wipe delvic cash after flashing everything, not before. Should be able to just wipe delvic now.

[Nook Color Android Development] leapinlar:
It does not matter when you wipe it. Once it is wiped, it is wiped. (And he had already wiped cache and data, which automatically wipes the whole dalvik cache.) It does not try to rebuild the dalvik cache until the system boots sucessfully.
[Nook Color Android Development] afzalarsalan:
Actually, starting the march builds, I am having to flash the zip 2 times for some reason. The first time it will go through the zip real fast while the second time I get the expected time for flashing a rom. I have no idea why but am using cwm 3.2.0.1. I also got the same problem you are describing if I only flashed it once. I think it started around the cyanoboot time but not sure.
[Nook Color Android Development] leapinlar:
That tells me it is aborting the install the first time by being so fast. Do you normally manually wipe /system before you flash?
[Nook Color Android Development] bobtidey:
I get this too and I think it may be due to a ROM change introduced with 3/10 and nothing to do with cyanoboot. Somehow they are more like an update and if an existing ROM is not there (by wiping system) then they go really fast and effectively install very little. Second time around without wiping system there is enough there that they succeed.

Currently it seems best to not wipe system which also means gapps needn't be re-applied. This is potentially confusing for new installs though or when one wants to make sure nothing is getting left behind in system.
[Nook Color Android Development] leapinlar:
They changed the backup script in the nightly starting 3/10. I also think that is what's causing it. I agree, wiping /system is not a good idea. That's why I was asking if they normally wiped /system first.

kernel

Great job running very nice smooth !!

Question I have is what kernel is everyone using ? Looking to speed up the room a little and my nook don't like the 1100 setting wanna try a 1000 setting but is not one with stock kernel

Also I keep getting connection timed out while on stock browser ? Don't seem to effect anything because connection don't really seem to drop . Normal ? Bug ?
[Nook Color Android Development] leapinlar:
Download "Nook Tweaks" from the play store by dalingrin. It was written for CM7, but we use the same kernel so it still works. With that you can change the cpu steps to whatever you want. There are 5 steps.

Older you tube working fine for me but 3.5.5 won't play with Nova launcher , did u find a fix ? ( just installed this rom today forgive me if asked 1000x , searched but didn't see a fix ....
[Nook Color Android Development] wtmann:
Since the March nightlies, I've had to flash gapps again also. I used to just flash th e nightly and the extras, wipe Dalvik and clear the cache. Now if I do that I find the gapps are no longer installed and have to go back and reflash the gapps too. Should I not be wiping the cache anymore?
[Nook Color Android Development] leapinlar:
If you are on SD, how are you wiping dalvik and clearing the cache?

No, wiping the cache does not effect that. Wiping /system would cause that. If you are, you should not be doing that.
[Nook Color Android Development] lickarock:
I was able to restore my backup from before. When I get a chance I will flash it without formatting system. I had a feeling that was going to be the issue.
[Nook Color Android Development] afzalarsalan:
You're right. I do wipe my /system as I prefer a really clean install. However, wouldn't this confuse new users? I think that Samiam and Eyeballer should add somewhere to flash it twice if it doesn't work the first time they boot in the OP.
[Nook Color Android Development] leapinlar:
The installer formats /system itself. You should not have to. All it does is back up your gapps and a few other minor things first. Now with the new installer it confuses it if the system is wiped first.

'Wouldn't this confuse new users' - what would confuse them? Having to possibly flash twice or not formatting system? It's never been standard practice to format system before flashing. Some do because they think they are helping things. They are not.

This is a really new issue since 3/10 so I'm not even sure that Sam and Eyeballer are fully aware of it.
[Nook Color Android Development] :
Perhaps, they would assume this was common sense.

I mean, if you flash something... and it doesn't work. Wouldn't step 2 be to re-flash to make sure it took properly? Really, it's that or go to forums to complain that the flash didn't take. (Where most people would suggest trying to reflash) I'd really hope most people would at least try the re-flash first, if nothing but to ensure that they didn't do something wrong/have a bad image/have a file in the image that just glitched...

deep sleep

I've searched around the thread and I've seen some deep sleep issues but don't see a fix ? Anyways nook is not going into deep sleep at all it stays at 600 never hits 300 or deep sleep unless I physically shut off wifi then sleeps just fine ?? Im running today's new build 100% completely stock gov ,UV and OC strait out the box and I've tryed with and without wifi patch ..any1 help ?
[Nook Color Android Development] leapinlar:
You must have an app installed that is putting a 'wakelock' on the system with wifi on. Try uninstalling apps until it starts sleeping with screen off.

[Nook Color Android Development] wtmann:
You're right, I should have started a new thread. I'm not on SD. I'm only wiping Dalvik and clearing the cache, but if I don't also flash gapps, during reboot when the cache is being rebuilt it shows 108 apps instead of the 120+ with gapps installed. And then when I try to launch something like Gmail I get a toast message saying that the app isn't installed. So then I have to go back and flash gapps after which all is fine.
[Nook Color Android Development] Nburnes:
Are you running the kernel keyodi posted a couple pages back here, or in the dev thread? My Nook was on for over 78 hours and slept for 60 of them o.o
[Nook Color Android Development] leapinlar:
Then the backup script in the nightlies is failing to backup your gapps. There is a new one in the nightlies since 3/10. It has a new test in it that causes the backup to abort if conditions are not just right. There have been a lot of aborted installs since then and I would not be surprised if that backup change is your problem. I hope the CM team revamps the script as I think that is the only solution.

In your case just keep re-installing until something changes.
[Nook Color Android Development] drawde40599:
? I didn't see anything for the kernel ? Not sure what ur talking about ? I had new rom build , gapps , telephone fix , wifi patch , and boot animation and my personal apps ... and it would not d sleep unless i manualy shut off wifi _---------OK so I have wiped the nook and installed fresh formated sd card , factory reset , installed ONLY the rom ( yesterydays build ) NO gapps , or anything else , only app I have is CPU spy and what comes with the rom NO gapps , or Anything else and its still not going into deep sleep or using the300 MHz slot until I manually shut off wifi , this dose not make sense to me ?? I could see gapps or my instaled apps doing this but what could it be with it this bear bones ?

Ok I'm having a really strange bug and have been through the last two weeks of nightlies.

I have a password wallet program called mSecure which links to Dropbox so I can sync between all my droid and PC devices. I've linked a synced all of them but when I try to do the linking from my Nook to Dropbox from mSecure my network connection drops after about 30 seconds of trying to connect to Dropbox and then it will error saying there is a network connection problem.

Once this has happened the only way I can get my connection back is to go into airplane mode and back out and then restart the wireless connection.

I am able to use Dropbox not problem at all on my Nook and I use mSecure on my Nexus running ICS so I don't think ICS and mSecure are the issue.

I've also had wonky wireless connection period that comes and goes when nothing next to me is having a problem.

Anyone else having this kind of issues?
[Nook Color Android Development] keyodi:
i removed the link, cuz the kernel is now up on fattire's github. If you're using eyeballers or Samiam303 nightlies, then you should have the latest kernel.
[Nook Color Android Development] drawde40599:
Ya its running internal emmc . ya kinda strange , soon as you shut off wifi deep sleep in seconds ? And the 300 MHz kicks in and starts being used . Need to upload some logs just haven't had real time to . What kinda logs r preferred ?
[Nook Color Android Development] tnpapadakos:
can someone post this kernel?
[Nook Color Android Development] 360Razir:
Been away for a few weeks, but I have been using Samiam303's builds (using 2/27 build now). In any event, I apologize if this has been asked/answered, but what is the difference in builds between Samiam303 & eyeballer? I have always used Samiam303, but curious as to why the two different builds for the NC. Thanks.

---------- Post added at 08:10 AM ---------- Previous post was at 08:02 AM ----------

Same issue here. Getting error message "Network Error: please check your Internet connection and try again". Again, I am on Sam's 2/27 build. I too have a Gnex and M-secure works perfectly on it (as does Dropbox). I didn't get a chance to check if I still had a wifi connection because when my screen turned off while typing this post, I got a SoD....screen just would not wake. Had to hold down power for 15 seconds or so and then power back up. Odd problem indeed.
[Nook Color Android Development] MechaGen:
I read this in one of the other forums

"Build 3/19

Wifi with encryption now works, before it would d/c but still show active

however, Upon waking from sleep, wifi shows "no connection" until it is turned on and off again. Still much better than having to use unecrypted."

Hope this helps,

probably requires hardware acceleration

just a guess though, i dont have netflix

I have not chimed in in a while so I wanted to throw my appreciation out into the open today.

I'm running samiams latest 3.20 build with tnps tweaks at 1225/300 and its flying. Fastest build I've used yet wallpaper scrolling is looking pretty good, and response to touch seems to be improved as well. I can't make a comment on the battery life yet but it seems to be the same thus far.

So thanks to all the devs and everyone putting effort into the progress of this tablet. Its remarkable what this thing can do esp for a tablet I saw recently selling for less than 130.

I love you all.....oh and when I can I expect a jelly bean build :eek:
[Nook Color Android Development] mateorod:
What kernel are you talking about? I had virtual machine #3 as the kernel source for the last couple days, and now that the touchscreen drivers have been added, it says keyodi@keyodi@dev-#2. I am pretty sure you should have the newest kernel already.

This is as unscientific as it gets, but I feel like the new drivers make a big difference, especially when typing. Entirely subjective, I haven't turned on any of the show touching options or anything. But I feel like my typing is more accurate since these drivers were added.

[Nook Color Android Development] leapinlar:
You still need to do telephony if you want it. Boot animation is fixed now and you don't need to do it. You may want to put the latest gapps on, get at goo-inside.me. I think latest is 3/17. Don't need to do SOD patch.
[Nook Color Android Development] mateorod:
View attachment 958744

Oh. I built just before midnight my time, so I figured eyeballers would definitely have it too.

If anyone wants to try before it gets out tomorrow,

For emmc installs, just erase the .img extension I put on there to upload it and swap it with the one that came with your nightly.

For sdcard, rename it to uimage and swap it with the one in the root of your sdcard. (I believe. Leapinlar, correct me if I'm wrong)

All thanks to keyodi!

Update: 3/22 kernel removed. Eyeballer and Samiam should have them in their builds now.
[Nook Color Android Development] tinpusher1:
I've been away for quite some time and I'm way way WAY behind. Like, 100+ pages behind. Where can I get the latest build for installation to internal memory (link pretty please with a cherry on top :) ) and what is this telephony fix of which you speak?
[Nook Color Android Development] Lsjreadingpa:
Is there a link for just the telephony fix and what exactly does it fix lol?
[Nook Color Android Development] leapinlar:
The link for the telephony link is on Sam's server. The link is in the opening post of this thread. Under misc. The telephony fix makes it so you can see more apps in market/play store. If the app you are looking for requires a phone, it will not show up without this fix.

@tinpusher1 - the latest nightly can be found there too.
[Nook Color Android Development] Lsjreadingpa:
Just to make sure, i flash the rom, telephony fix, gapps, in that order or do i do the telephony last?
[Nook Color Android Development] leapinlar:
should not matter as long as you do the nightly first.
[Nook Color Android Development] Lsjreadingpa:
So yea, i must have messed something up, did a factory reset, formatted cache and dalvik cache and installed everything then rebooted but now im sitting at a black screen. Not sure if i need to install an earlier nightly then try reflashing without factory reset or is there something else?
[Nook Color Android Development] leapinlar:
Why did you factory reset? Ordinarily that is only done if flashing over emmc stock with a cm rom. Yes try flashing a second time. If that does not work flash a pre-3/10 nightly then immediately flash the new one again without wiping anything or booting in between.
[Nook Color Android Development] Lsjreadingpa:
The reason i did a factory reset/data wipe was i earlier today i had to reset my nook and when i did that it just sat at the first screen and wouldn't boot any further so i figured something got fubared so thats when i decided to install the latest nightly.

---------- Post added at 01:10 AM ---------- Previous post was at 01:03 AM ----------

K installing an earlier version then reflashing worked, boot animation still messed up.
[Nook Color Android Development] leapinlar:
Messed up how?
[Nook Color Android Development] Lsjreadingpa:
Still sideways.
[Nook Color Android Development] leapinlar:
Which nightly did you flash? Is it the multicolor one with the flying panels or the android with circles around it?
[Nook Color Android Development] Lsjreadingpa:
I did what you said, installed a nightly before the 10th so i installed the first one on the list Update-encore-20120304-samiam303 theni flashed the latest one.
[Nook Color Android Development] leapinlar:
You did not answer my question about the boot animation. The new boot animation (with the android in the circle) is rotated 90 degrees but fills the screen. That is the way it is supposed to be.
[Nook Color Android Development] Lsjreadingpa:
Sorry i thought i said that it was sideways, as in not filling the whole screen. But i misread what you asked, its the old animation.
[Nook Color Android Development] leapinlar:
but which one was it?
[Nook Color Android Development] Lsjreadingpa:
I updated my last post as soon as i seen that i didn't answer your question fully. I have the old animation.
[Nook Color Android Development] leapinlar:
Ok, it is possible that Sam has not added the new boot animation to his builds. He has to reconfigure his setup for that to happen. Eyeballer has the new boot animation in his builds. I use his. If you really want it, I guess you could flash his. If you do, do not wipe anything in between. They are the same build so no need to wipe anything.
[Nook Color Android Development] Lsjreadingpa:
Hmmm i may want to try that, have a link to his forum? Also does he have the opengl disabled on his build? I have had issues running opengl for some odd reason.
[Nook Color Android Development] leapinlar:
He has a link about mid way through his first post in this thread. He posts both versions. (I have problems with opengl too.)
