OK Everyone here is the score, the one and only reason we were considering security on the test build (which was only a few days ,maybe a week) was for a very simple reason, it's come to light that people are actually SELLING the original build and I don't want that, this new build will be freely given for personal use in as quick a time as we can do some tesitng on it to make sure it's safe and not going to brick peoples tablets.

Yes it will have bugs, yes it will come with a warning that excessive use may cause you to die unexpectedly and it's a chance you all take on your own accord.

So the long and short of it is please bear with us, it really won't be long before people get their hands on it I promise.

If it makes everyone feel better there will be no DRM on the testing version. I trust out testers and I'm sure they'll keep it close to them till we agree it's at the very least a "Safe" build.

Again apologies to anyone that this upset, we were only trying to do what was best but it appears a bit like our first release, it was a **** up!
[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] gr8wing:
I have appreciated all the work you guys have put into this and that is why I donated early on in the project. I too was a tad bit upset at the turn the project was going to take, but your explanation was absorbed and appreciated. If anyone actually pays someone for an alpha or beta build, they get what they deserve or is it, they deserve what they get? Anyway, shame on those hounding the testers and shame on those trying to profit from somebody else's work.

I am excited to see the next version and see how it goes, but I will see it when everybody else does, no need to pester the tester. Keep up the good work guys and hopefully this whole thing can stay open as it has over the past couple of weeks. :)
[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] moukazwina:
I have only one request from the devs: Please make sure the multitouch is fully functional.

These morons from B&N restricted the NT to recognize just 2 points at any time. This is extremely frustrating for those of us that would like to use some special apps that make use of more than 2 points at any given point.

As for release dates or release conditions. Do it any time you feel like it.

I am not going anywhere, and I am past the deadline of returning my NT.

Thanks for all the hard work. I know how hard it is to do this stuff, whether you get donations or not, it's still highly appreciated by most of us.
[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] Loglud:
Yes. This is something a couple of the devs have talked about. For those of you whom have not read, N2A.com is offering an award for the first bootable SD card, and we all thought that was cool, however, they then said that they plan on selling the software that we create for their own profit. Now while this may sound illegal, it is not since most of what we create is licensed by GPL.

I already have a program which creates an "magic" sdcard which can be booted, and this will be distributed free of cost. There is no reason any one should buy these as they are a waste of money. However, I will not distribute until N2A has issued refunds for their 15th of feb deadline (which they hopefully will not meat). Once the beta is out, this software will be distributed FREELY as it should be.
[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] aszid:
That surely does make things make more sense, and I appreciate that you took the time to explain that.

Unfortunately that's the way of software, open, closed, commercial, etc. There will always be some leeches out there stealing and profiting from other peoples work.

Please don't take it the wrong way, but from my experience, the only way to beat those people is by outperforming them :)
[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] stealthfx:
You spent $250 on a budget tablet, but apparently you want the bells and whistles of a tablet double the price. And now someones giving you something for

free

to help achieve that end.....and you just go off on the typical n00b user cryfest :confused:, They seriously need to create an aplha\beta test sub forum, and brutally moderate it, the first n00b to open their mouth and complain....banhammer! Seriously you guys, the reason why a lot of people say open source is crapware, is because devs rush things out, no proper testing. Celtic and co. are doing the right thing, and not even getting paid a proper cent for it. You guys are lucky I am not a dev, the moment people started crying "waaaaaah, open source, I want now!!!", I'd rush and release the most horrid code known to man kind and laugh when you bricked, but then you'd cry about that too. Also..if you bought this tablet, it's because you didn't want to spend the bucks to pick up something more high end...so you REALLY want to risk bricking it???

- Ok rant done. Thanks. Moderator, you are more than welcome to delete this post, as it doesn't help matters one bit..but it did make me feel a lot better to vent. I am going to go feed my pet koala bear and watch cartoons.
[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] Goncezilla:
This is more like it ;)

Unfortunately we only support two fingers at the moment. This is a feature we plan on working on in the future (along with Bluetooth and overclocking). This of course asumes that the touch screen controller is infact capable of accepting more inputs.

Loglud has a point here and I appritiate him clearing the air. These type of bounties often inhibit development instated of encouraging it.
[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] Land Master:
I began to read the GPL and will do so more thoroughly but the quick question is: ARE YOU SURE they can SELL work licensed under the GPL for their profit?

Perhaps it is the "packaging and instructions" that they think they are selling and that they can just "include" the software? If this is the case I feel it is an attempt to circumvent the license and if any Dev wanted to play hardball they would have a case.

PM me if you want. Sorry about the hijack.
[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] CelticWebSolutions:
They can't actually sell the work, but what they can do is give you the work for free and sell you the service of setting it all up on an SD for your personal use, and of course charging you for the SD at whatever value they wish. it's been discussed many times. It's just a little loophole and it's completely legal and many businesses make a living form it.

On the upside many of these companies employ numerous people and some even done to charities so it's not all bad.
[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] ms2003:
Anyway, when release to public, it won't contain DRM, right?

Just to prevent people selling internal testing ROMs.

So everybody please calm down before the public version comes out.
[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] CelticWebSolutions:
Definitely no DRM in public release roms!
[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] CelticWebSolutions:
It's funny you should mention that, we're just looking at how we can replace the box image of bauwks 2nd boot so it states the software was deveeoped by XDA Team-B.

People know how to change the initial boot anim but not so many could recomplie the boot stuff.

Problem is we can't find the box image to update it!
[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] rigbyrobot:
that's awesome, I was trying to think of way they would at least have to split the kernal and ram disk to remove it, ...that works well, good thinking guys
[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] CelticWebSolutions:
Well I've PM'd Bauwks to see if he'd mind, its' his software after all for the boot screen.

Open Source or not it just seemed right to ask him first :)
[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] CelticWebSolutions:
I just went and had a nose and it does say it's powered by CyanogenMod and gives details of the website and a donation link for Cyanogen too. I wonder if all of them bother doing that, I would think the vast majority of the sellers try to make sure that the buyer thinks it's something special that they can't get anywhere else.
[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] rigbyrobot:
egh, should have done a bit more fact checking before i spoke...I still think it would be a good preventive measure,but just to make sure, this is the site were talking about http://www.n2acards.com/ right? Im really tired its midnight here, but ive searched there page from top to bottom and couldn't find a mention of cynogenmod, xda,etc. i went so far as to loading the paypal page, could i be being served a different page based on location?

edit: nm found it, but no they are not all that nice, google root android and switch to shopping tab, 60 bucks for a root sd card for the nook color, 50$ for the files (no medium) to root and install cm7 on a droid 3,etc. .....so many poorly poorly made websites

I mean on release day for it, you can flash CM7 through clockwork mod instead of having to go through the pain in the ass process of restoring it as a backup.
[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] cgdash:
Nice - I can't wait. Just this morning my NT with CM7 reset for the 3rd time back to stock because of the reset/reboot counter. Need that new zip! :)
[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] Anon9mouz:
Dude I rebooted like 20 times just to see if i can do it and still won't factory reset

This issue has more than likely been addressed already but the only major problem I'm having is the wifi turning off and only being able to get it back on by rebooting my NT.

Is there any thing I can do to remedy this issue until the next release of cm7 is available?
[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] Mike_IronFist:
Hmm, this started happening to me the first time I flashed the ROM, but then I backed up my user apps and data with Titanium Backup and re-flashed the ROM. My Wi-Fi problems went away after that.
[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] rigbyrobot:
try going to settings>wireless networks>then hit menu and choose advanced> wifi sleep policy> choose never
[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] vandizzam:
Doesn't work
[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] rigbyrobot:
if that doesn't work for you, boot into cwm clear cashe, advanced > clear dalvic, then run fix permissions
[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] Indirect:
Someone get me a dmesg of the wifi bug. (Once it dies off use

adb shell dmesg > log_for_indirect.txt
[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] cgdash:
Strange - it's happened to me 3 times to the point where I try not to reboot. I can wait though for the zip install
[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] jsp254:
Alright fellas. Put your pee-pee's away. Everybody knows Indi has the biggest pee-pee here anyway. Hell, he carries a whip and wears that cool ass hat. LOL. I just said ass hat.
[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] noobernz:
I've actually had this happen to me several times and i'm running my nook with just the Go Launcher and G-Apps installed. No CM7. Just Indirect's Full root for Nook tablet...(and the white on white menu fix and the overclocking...)
[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] cleverghost:
I totally didn't know there was a menu fix for the white on white...... I've just been guessing. lol
[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] aszid:
This specific issue *only* happens to me when I plug in my nook to charge. When I unplug it, the wifi is stuck in "turning off", and I need to reboot.

At least for this specific failure, I have been able to work around it by disabling wifi before I plug it in to charge. When it's done charging I can re-enable wifi and everything works great without needing to reboot.
[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] gr8wing:
I know you guys are working on getting the bugs worked out, but when you have a chance to mod stuff, I would love the volume to be bumped up. I currently run Volume+ and it works great for upping the volume, but under the NT Rom, it FC often and it appeared to run good under CM7 Alpha 1.

The stock volume is really set weak. If you need a copy of Volume+ to figure out what they did, let me know.

Thanks and as always, you guys rock. Is it time for me to donate again?
[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] alaw:
I tried clearing clearing cache and fixing permissions the other day. Did not seem to work.

Just turned the wifi sleep policy to never. Ill see of that works.
[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] CelticWebSolutions:
Did you use the fix permissions in the rom manager? Does a better job compared to the Fix permissions in CWM which appears to do nothing in it's current incarnation!
[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] rigbyrobot:
I'm at work right now, when I get home ill try to recreate the bug by allowing wifi to sleep, but if it is a permission issue...mines fixed and I can be no help
[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] CelticWebSolutions:
We're not sure exactly what it is yet, we cannot reproduce it ourselves, ideally we could do with somebody that gets it regularly when they do a certain thing.

Out of 2000 downloads we're getting less than 1% mentioning it so I guess not that common so we're finding it difficult to pin it down.
[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] CelticWebSolutions:
The version that all of you have, we think it may still be in current release because we never had the problem our selves with the early build to be able to fix the bug in the first place :)
[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] dodgepot:
Lemme reflash it, stand by..

edit: oh wait, it needs to break first. I've got nowt.

I did both to make sure lol

In otherwords, what's going on is that it is killing off it's own driver (which is why wifi says error and you need to reboot to fix it {it insmod's the kernel driver on reboot.} ) So, with that said, I have no idea how to fix that issue specifically. We need to find out what part of the kernel is forcing it out (I know that it's being forced out because it is getting a HANG event which means it won't load up. I'm guessing too many of those causes the driver to be called invalid / bad and get spit out by the kernel. :) Looks like we might have just found this bug and hit it with a shoe. :) Didn't kill it -yet-
[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] hersh40:
I haven't had the wifi problem more than twice but if someone that has it repeatedly might use a logger to capture data. Just a thought.
[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] tonyp22:
Yes, that would make this a lot easier for Win users. I hadn't yet gotten to the part about explaining what to do with a multi-partition SD card in Windows (with ext4 parts!) once it's created.
[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] jokerier:
I too had the N hardware button problem. It would recognize to wake it up, but had no function once up and running.

The ROM Manager->Fix Permissions->Reboot has restored functionality to the N button.

Thank you guys for all your work on this. So far, so smooth!
[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] marc11284:
I followed Veronica's advice and it works now. I wiped data/cache then installed the ROM then wiped data/cache again. After reboot and setup, the "n" button is working.

Edited to add: forgot to mention that previous to fixing it, longpressing the power button and pressing "home" didn't work either. Maybe my downloaded launcher (adw launcher) was conflicting with CM launcher.

Notifications Panel

I am noticing that it scrolls one direction down, but limits how far up...it says 39 notifications, but not able to go up...

is this to be expected?
[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] CelticWebSolutions:
Thank you for your patience :) I hope hope you agree it was worth the relatively short wait!

As far as donations are concerned you can either click here and the donations willl be split equally between myself and Gonc or if you prefer you can make donations directly to each of us by clicking the donate button under our names.

Thanks for the tip on extracting files for everyone, I hadn't though about people doing it directly on their nook!
[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] tonyp22:
CWS, before I take the next step of providing instructions for the system partition, I wanted to make sure I understood something since it wasn't really clear in the first post.

The files in the SDBootPartition zip are, of course, those needed for the root drive to boot. But Windows SD card users (it seems) will then need to extract the system.ext4.tar file from the NTCM7 zip file. Is that the only tar file we need? What about the other tar files that are in that tarball?
[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] howcansheslap:
Big ups to Celtic, Gonce and the other who made this happen!

My NT is running CM7 with no problems!

A couple of questions:

1) Is this already overclocked?

2) Will any SystemUI.apk work (provided its customized for the NT)?
[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] Goncezilla:
Source Files Uploaded

All,

I've updated the original development thread with the latest source files used to build this (see post #2 on that thread).

I also wanted to pass around thanks and credit:

1. CelticWebSolutions - Couldn't have done it with out this guy. Worked with him every step of the way and he is an excellent OP for this.

2. Bauwks - Without him we would not be here. He blew the top off the bootloader and his thanks bar is no where near what it should be. Please find some of his posts and hit Thanks!

3. Indirect and Loglud - For helping Celtic and I research issues and giving pointers along the way

4. AdamOutler - His guide was used to help us with kernel issues and build our SDcard version

5. The rest of XDA - For being so supportive and throwing out ideas and experience!

I'm heading back to the 'real world' now but will be checking in from time to time. I'm really excited to see what everyone does with this! Also waiting for CM9 ;)
[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] ae1990:
Pronably wanna add wipe data factory reset and also advanced>wipe dalvik cache
[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] lavero.burgos:
- Not any SystemUI.apk will work because all B&N content is left behind, you should take the SystemUI.apk that comes with CM7 and modify it by yourself or wait until users that have done mods for SystemUI and framework-res update them for CM7.

- This ROM is not overclocked.

~ Veronica

---------- Post added at 11:04 AM ---------- Previous post was at 11:03 AM ----------

Most likely is a bad download try downloading it again.

~ Veronica
[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] CelticWebSolutions:
It's not overclocked yet but we will be updating that more than likely

2. No you can't use the systemui from other releases on the B&N NT
[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] lavero.burgos:
That is the simplest and quickest fix, Celtic consider to update OP with installation instructions.

Thanks!

~ Veronica
[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] CelticWebSolutions:
because it's a restore it will actually be restoring a totally blank factory data partition so you 'shouldn't' need to do any of that but it won't hurt if you do :)
[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] CelticWebSolutions:
It's been an absolute pleasure working with you, we made a great team and a huge thanks to you as well. Together we made it happen my friend!

I know what you mean about the real world, I've lost a week of my life almost 24 hours a day so it's time to return...
[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] CelticWebSolutions:
Already added after somebody confirmed my suggestion worked :)

Thanks for testing :)
[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] tselling:
Thanks so much for this release. CM7 on the Nook Tablet will be so much more useful. I also have a couple of issues I wanted to check on. Note I am running CM7 on internal storage.

1) cifsmanager doesn't work. Says something about device not present so I wanted to see if the cifs module is included with this release? I use cifsmanager to connect to the Titanium Backup directory on my PC so I saw this right away.

2) The media partition is not visible when I connect to my windows PC like it was with stock. I have reparititioned so that I have approx 10GB in the media partition so it would be nice if it showed up in windows like stock did. Also maybe related is the "Use Internal Storage" setting is greyed out in the Cyanogenmod->setttings screen. On the NC, this allowed the internal storage to show up as the sdcard (seemed to swap actual sdcard and internal media mount points). Given the extra storage on the NT vs the NC this would be very useful, especially since it is so easy to repartition the media and userdata partitions.

Again thanks for the release!

Thank you so much for all the hard work this past week. It has been a amazing experience to watch this whole effort unfold right in front of us. It truely is a eye opener to how much work it takes.

So far so good. less than 10 minutes and everything was up and running, 'n' button worked fine, all my apps installed, I have access to a bunch of apps that I had to get round about before. Very slick. Donation incoming.

I've got a weird bug this is the second time I've noticed it. I use the ESPN app I don't share this tablet with anyone and I now have someone else signed in the user name is ttbg681 the last time it was a different user different user. I asked Celtic last time in irc if it was his user name and it wasn't so I'm stumpped. . . . Any ideas? ( by the way they are a Philadelphia fan)
