MY* battery life is about a day and a half. Which isn't a problem for me, but some people want more. You should update to Sam's latest without any modding and see what type of battery life you get, before you supercharge it. Ask some of the dev's if they have any tips on conserving battery, they will probably find a way for it to last for weeks (disclaimer: I seriously doubt the nook's battery could last a full week).

I am using juice defender on my nook, and it says on the JD UI that it is essentially doubling my battery. Whether or not that's true, I don't know.

tnpapadakos all-in-one vs nightlies at http://techerrata.com/browse/nightly_kangs/

OK, those of you who read this thread know I've been trying to figure how to get my Nook to be in 'sleep' mode more often. Interesting factoid, using CPU spy, I've confirmed that for my system, at least, I get a very significant amount of sleep on it using tnpapadakos version, over 20%, vs virtually none using the nightlies from http://techerrata.com/browse/nightly_kangs/encore

V6 supercharger used the same on both.. now, if we can just convince tnpapadakos to render us a new version at least daily! :D
[Nook Color Android Development] grayfoxmg1:
Just ask him, that's all I did to get the last one released by him.
[Nook Color Android Development] tnpapadakos:
I'll try to do one at least every other...latest just posted
[Nook Color Android Development] grayfoxmg1:
Just a quick question, would it be alright to continue posting the V6 edited builds of Sam's roms on this thread? Or should I make my own?
[Nook Color Android Development] :
Seems a little pointless to post an entire new build just to add the V6 supercharge portions... since all you really have to do is open the zip and drop a 500k jar into it.

IMO, it just seems like a waste of your bandwidth to host/post an edited nightly each time just for that.

It's a nice gesture though ;)

*Edit*

It may be more efficient to just toss a link to the original thread detailing how to do it in your sig, maybe spam that once every couple of pages for the ;TLDR guys.

Actually, I just read through to zep's tutorial on it.... I didn't realize that you could update the current nightly's services.jar for the script.... I was using a generic one from mateorod's post... It might be useful to post an updated services.jar for each nightly, so that people have the current one to inject.

I see no reason you can't -- but if you want to PM me with the details of what you modify, perhaps we could make a flashable zip that could be applied over any nightly, instead of you having to repack every one.

tnp, I just updated my SD boot partition script so that it is OK to put the new version in a generic nightly that you can have for both SD and emmc. No need to make separate versions.
[Nook Color Android Development] grayfoxmg1:
On a related note, I was wondering if someone could teach me how to create a bootable zip. Than I could just put the 2 files that I change from whatever build I use to make it supercharge, in it. Than you all wouldn't have to flash my builds and could just run the zip. Until I figure it out, I'll keep releasing my edits. Make sure you all thank Samiam303, Tnpapadakos, Fattire, and Eyeballer for their builds. Also thank Matoerod for his service.jar file used in our V6, and finally Zepplinrox for his V6 scripts.
[Nook Color Android Development] leapinlar:
It's really easy. Just take any of the install zips I posted, like the one I made today for SD boot partition (yes, use that one as it is the simplest to modify), and open it in a program that opens zips. Delete the files that I put in system and put your own in the right place in system. As long as you don't completely unzip and re-zip it keeps its signature and will flash fine. The script I have there just extracts whatever you put in system and puts it on the /system folder of your nook. Also rename the zip to match what you are doing. But leave the update- in the front.
[Nook Color Android Development] fbueller:
Incredibly stupid noob question, but here we go - when I hold down the 'n' and the power button, I boot into an automated CWM recovery (linux install with the Tux graphic) then it goes to boot fully. How do I get into the CWM where I can navigate the menus, manually select updates, etc.? I'm feeling stupid that I can't figure that out, and I'm actually not new at this.

When I downloaded & installed the latest CM9 nightly just an hour ago, I didn't really expect too much. But I'm actually blown away how nicely everything installed, and how great the build is running on my NC! (OK, it's a bit laggy at times, but that's not really a problem in the great scheme of things... )

If I weren't already convinced, this experience alone would make me an Android fanboy for life. -- Gotta love the awesome Android Dev Scene!!!

P.S. Installed on SD, which may explain why my install isn't too snappy, Still love it anyway!
[Nook Color Android Development] Etaduck:
Yes, everything, I was having issues before I wiped, figured it was just another buggy pre-rom, after I reinstalled it after a fresh wipe, all I have to say is

AMAAAAAAAAAZING!!!!!!

I've been waiting for the nightlies, becasue I don't have a spare machine to install linux on. While not offical, this is a great release, thank you so much for hosting these, and thank you to the developers for all the hard work you all put into these.

I wasn't expecting much, but I must say, I am blown away.
[Nook Color Android Development] xdp:
Yep, working great after a full wipe. Lots of problems without doing that. Really pleased with how great this runs on the Nook! I honestly couldn't expect much more. It just about feels like a genuine ICS tablet. Excellent job to all the devs who made this happen.
[Nook Color Android Development] webdroidmt:
Decided to try flashing to eMMC myself and flashed Sam's 2012014 build over stock B&N 1.4.1. It didn't bootloop but when it got to the home screen, the softkeys were missing and the apps screen was wonky. So, I wiped everything and flashed 20120111 which I also have on my SD install.

That booted up great, so I went back to CWM and flashed Sam's newest gapps noinit file, as well as Homer's bootanim fix. Booted back up and all is running very well. Also, with No Frills CPU set to 1.1ghz and Autokiller Memory Optimizer, it's running pretty snappy.

Anyway, it looks like with eMMC, you can flash the nightlies without having sneakpeek1or CM7 previously flashed.

I love how this ROM is coming along. There is one thing that really turns me off about it, though. Everything is just so small. I currently run Kanged CM7.2 Mirage on my nook and I can boost the density up to 240 in the build.prop and make everything nice and big. But that functionality is limited with ICS, obviously. Maybe someone with more skill than me can help out us old farts so we don't need to use our reading glasses with our tablets.
[Nook Color Android Development] leapinlar:
Look at my post here:

You can modify the local.prop in /data to change the setting to 240. It makes the systemui crash but look at my post to see a temporary work around until someone figures out how to fix systemui.apk.

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.

HI,

I d/l and installed tnps emmc OpenGL build. I believe based on Eyeballers 2/27 build plus

tnps community extensions.

I was installing over a recent (2/25) tnp ICS build, so I just erased cache and

Dalvik cache (do you really have to erase both). I installed sam's gapps-noinit over

the install.

On first powerup, about a minute of blank screen - seemed forever! Then

'upgrading' my apps.

Based on 10 minutes use:

Stable.

quick test and wifi, gmail, market (d/l chrome), fbreader, newsrob, xda

nova launcher, Dolphin browser all worked.

Chrome was slow to start the first time - give it some time, there is a

license agreement. Chrome crashed on accessing the chrome settings

(as mentioned by others) Only crash I have had so far!

Youtube video, HD doesn't work at all. SD doesn't work well enough to

be useful.

I haven't been following the boot animation discussion, but it looked like

the boot animation was missing.

Peter
[Nook Color Android Development] leapinlar:
The "upgrading" was the dalvik cache being rebuilt that you cleared. And you really only need to clear dalvik cache, not both.

There are two dalvik caches, one in /cache/dalvik-cache for your system apps and one in /data/dalvik-cache for your installed apps. Clearing dalvik cache with CWM recovery clears both. Clearing just cache will clear just the cache in /cache. But when installing a new nightly, you are installing new system apps only. So you usually don't have to clear the data dalvik. So if you want to speed up booting the first time you boot with a new nightly, just clear cache and only the system cache will rebuild.
[Nook Color Android Development] webdroidmt:
Didn't know that, I just habitually cleared both like a drone. :p Thanks for your useful info, as usual.

Mike T
[Nook Color Android Development] tnpapadakos:
i know, sorry, i fixed that and re-uploaded the builds
[Nook Color Android Development] :
You should probably be able to grab pretty much any of the bootanimation.zip files (not sure about the ones that are packed as update files though) that have been posted. There was one for the CM9 animation and one for the XDA Developers animation a couple pages back. Just toss the zip into /system/media and change the permissions to rw-r--r-- .They both look pretty good, but the CM9 animation annoyed me a bit when it flashed the screen completely white... especially if that's when the boot process lags a little. Might just be me, but I hate my screen being blindingly white for any period of time.

Also, for anyone who just wants an updated services.jar with the tweaks for V6 enabled... I went ahead and modded one from one of the nightlies I grabbed today (not sure if it was from sam's or eyeballers at this point though, I doubt it matters much since they're likely the same).

It's attached below and goes into system/framework (can be added to the zip before flashing, or placed there after just make sure to fix the permissions on it to rw-r--r--). I've tested it and didn't get any errors like I was with the older one that I was using, ie. usb device errors.

Enjoy.

Thank you! Emmc/openGL version loaded and running... :D
[Nook Color Android Development] grayfoxmg1:
Okay so I made this ZIP, it should replace your service.jar with the newest one for V6(I also replaced the one in my .rar from my earlier post if you want to re-download), and the bootanimation to the official CM9 one.
[Nook Color Android Development] leapinlar:
You mentioned how you would include two files in your zip. I am assuming one of them is a tweaked build.prop file. There is a way to modify an existing build.prop on the fly, to delete existing lines and add new ones. Look at my post here and get the attached script:

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?p=22640255

Paste all of the files from the script.rar to your install zip you just created replacing those that are there.

Then edit the buildprop.sh file in /tmp/scripts so that it modifies the lines in build.prop you want. The sed line will delete any line that has whatever is within the single quotes. It can be just part of the line quoted and the whole line will be deleted. Don't forget to leave the /d. The echo line appends whatever is in the double quotes to build.prop. Save the edited buildprop.sh and replace the existing one in the zip.

Then when you flash, the files in system that you had in the zip replace the ones on your nook and the script modifies the existing build.prop already in /system.

The only problem with this is the build.prop modify script will not work on SD installs if you use verygreen's installer. His installer ignors scripts built into the zips. But it does work with the Alternate CWM recovery I posted sometime back. See here:

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?p=22719241
[Nook Color Android Development] :
@leapinlar:

The two files he includes in his rar are most likely the V6 script (in the rar) and the modified services.jar baked into the rom zip. The v6 script edits the build.prop file when it is ran.

*Edit*

I'm not trying to belittle what he's doing or anything. But only 4 or 5 lines need to be edited within the services.jar file when it's built. Sam was saying that he could just bake these into his nightlies (I don't think they affect anything if you don't run the script from how I understood the directions from zep). It may be more practical to do it like this, so that there's not an extra flavor of unofficial nightlies floating around to confuse people more.
[Nook Color Android Development] leapinlar:
I don't think Sam was suggesting that he bake another nightly with this stuff built in. What he was suggesting was an install zip like I was talking about that he could host on his server so it was available for users to flash if they wanted. But since the services.jar needs to be updated periodically as CM9 evolves, I'm not sure that will work.
[Nook Color Android Development] :
Yeah, sorry I went back and re-read his post. I thought he was talking about baking it in... I was mistaken, I had read that post late last night while I was trying to figure out why I was getting a USB Device error after using an older services.jar file.

If I knew how to make update zips, I would start putting one up for the file... It only takes a few moments to mod.

Any chance there's a tutorial on making update zips somewhere?
[Nook Color Android Development] leapinlar:
Look back a few posts. I explain it. Look here:

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?p=23038344

And the post you quoted a few minutes ago. Between those two posts you should be able to make a jim-dandy install zip that puts new files on system and modifies build.prop.
[Nook Color Android Development] grayfoxmg1:
I thought about just grabbing all the files edited when I ran V6 and putting them in my zip, but than people would be running my options of V6. One of the main points behind V6 is that you can choose your settings. Me just making it all go in one shot, kind of defeats the purpose. Why would zepplinrox, create this whole thing, if he could just make a zip and be done with it. My zip replaces the service.jar, and adds tnpapadakos' boot animation over the ICS one. You can get the script from mine or mateorod's posts, everything else is up to the user. It isn't hard to do, and it makes a noticeable deference.
[Nook Color Android Development] :
grayfoxmg1, the zips you're uploading are full rom repacks.

What everyone's talking about is just doing update zips, so that there aren't extra rom packs going around for 1 or 2 tweaks. The one you're posting up is a full update file. Not really a big deal... just causes there to be extra releases of the same nightly without much added to it. Doing this as an update zip, it could realistically be applied to all nightlies until the services.jar file is modified during a build... Just kinda makes life easier.

I've gone ahead and made an update zip for just the V6 services. I put the current script file inside as well, so that users will have the same script that the modifications go to within the zip.

@leapinlar, thanks for the tip. I had already gotten most of the way figuring out how to create the update by the time I read your post. First time doing it, I was a bit worried about permissions on the file itself though... Figured I would have to set the permissions on it.

*******

This is simply a flashable update zip based on zepplirocks's guide. All credit goes to him for his hard work. It includes a readme and his script. Make sure to extract the script and run it after applying the patch. The services.jar used was from 27feb2012 nightlies, it may cause errors on newer nightlies.

I've tested the file and had no issues with it.

Zep's post: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=991276

Oh, I just noticed that your zips were 12.x megs not 12x megs... sorry grayfoxmg1... Totally a misreading on my part.
[Nook Color Android Development] tnpapadakos:
talking about this one
[Nook Color Android Development] leapinlar:
If you add this text below to your updater-script in the zip and move the script to /tmp/scripts, it will run the script as part of the flash. Change the name of the .sh file to match yours.

ui_print("Running v6 supercharger...");

package_extract_dir("tmp/scripts", "/tmp/scripts");

set_perm(0, 0, 0777, "/tmp/scripts/V6_SuperCharger.sh")

run_program("/tmp/scripts/V6_SuperCharger.sh");

I don't know if the v6 script runs well under a flash, but try it.

Don't worry about permissions in an install zip. (Or on the install zip itself). They get set right on flashing.

[Nook Color Android Development] :
Yeah leapinlar, I was tempted to try and do that... but the V6 script as written requires user interaction to choose settings and such. AFAIK, CWM doesn't have any method for accepting input from the user to accomplish this (ie: keyboard).

Unfortunately, I must have been mistaken about gray's packages... They are updates, not full packs.
[Nook Color Android Development] leapinlar:
Some of the confusion between Sam's nightlies and Eyeballers's is they have different dates for the same build. Sam's are dated the night they are built and Eyeballer's are dated the next morning (after midnight). So the same build for Sam might be 2-27 and Eyeballer 2-28.

I liked that one too, but the CM9 one makes it all look more 'official.' Now if only I could find a landscape version of that...........
[Nook Color Android Development] :
The CM9 one?

I wouldn't hold out too much on that... the images are all oriented for portrait. The only way to make it have a landscrape layout, would be to rotate and stretch the images... which would look really ugly.... or to rotate them, and set the width to the width of the NC and just put black bars on each side. Wouldn't look horribly great either though.
