So did you just turn off location services to stop the battery drain?

Or can you change how often it checks?

Can you post that in the battery thread so people know pleas e:)

Hey all. Still using stock(missed the download), but had ? bout the new ROM... on rooted stock Nook tab, music and certain vids have decent enuff sound, but some vids and Voxer app, in particular, have barely audible sound, to the point where I literally have to hold the speaker to my ear like an awkward, gigantic phone to hear. Anyone else notice drastic sound differences on stock? How bout the new ROM? Could someone using the new ROM test out Voxer and see? Thanks to all. HACK THE PLANET!

Two questions:

Can those us us who are cautious, try the external version and experience a *close approximation* to the functionality of the internal version?

Does this mod remove the 1GB/11GB B&N partitioning scheme, thus allow full use of the internal storage capacity?
[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] Mike_IronFist:
Well, if you checked out the development thread ("Building CM7 for the Nook Tablet") the plan was to keep both partitions in place but make them both user-accessible by changing their mount points. The current build Celtic made has had some results, but it's not quite in a user friendly state just yet. When there's a more complete release, having that 11 GB easily accessible for the user is indeed part of the plan.
[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] Mephikun:
Still have this issue. 4 GB Micro SD card is being used.

installing busybox released by Stericson totally messes up root and what not. tried it twice, had to reflash rom twice.

Just curious, what prompted you to install BB? Maybe you could tell us a little about how you got to that point. I almost installed it just 'cause. It seemed like something I've always done to have a well rounded system. I'll certainly hold off for now.
[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] rigbyrobot:
I used jrummy's (sp?) busybox installer from the market, installed the newest version, all worked out fine. try updating your su binaries through the super user app before you install, it may fail a few times, but keep retrying (possibly reboot) and it will eventually update.
[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] lehite:
I had this issue as well. Boot to CWM from an SD card then try flashing (or at least you'll have adb access to get a boot).
[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] flippage:
I missed the download links by a few hours the first time around and I've been waiting ever since before asking this... could someone please be so kind as to send me a PM with a link to get it? Many many thanks in advance :)

EDIT: Thanks everyone, got it.
[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] iCE-dOGG:
Same thing, i just installed because thats something i do normally. as it is used by some apps i use, dont remember which ones tho.

yep jrummys worked fine. stericson's installer just fails during installation and makes a big mess.
[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] CelticWebSolutions:
Does anybody know where to set which drives appear in the USB sync when connected to a computer? If you do could you answer HERE please

Thank you!
[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] dang69:
Installed Google Currents. Fired up fine but caused a reboot (or a reboot occurred) while it was populating articles. I panicked and uninstalled. I know, I know, that's not the behavior a fearless tester should engage in but I was clucked.

Has anyone else run Currents?
[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] xrabbitfootx:
i have it sync'ed with no fc issues, but i can't say i'm a regular user.

[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] CelticWebSolutions:
I can't say I've ever even heard of that one. I'll go look in the market now and see what I can find :)

*** EDIT ***

I'm guessing it's a US only app because I can't see it in MArket and if I go to android website it says it's not compatible with any of my 4 android devices. So sorry I can't help there!
[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] dang69:
Thanks, I'll try it again. It quickly became my goto for current media on the stock rom. Looks great on the NT.
[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] Mike_IronFist:
Downloaded and installed it just now, had zero problems with it. The only thing that happened was I discovered how gorgeous it looks on a 7 inch tablet screen :P

That being said, are you booting off of SD? I'm booting off of internal, which so far seems to be more stable in general, based on what the SD booters are saying.
[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] dang69:
Installed clean instead of from TB and it seems to be fine.

---------- Post added at 01:04 PM ---------- Previous post was at 01:03 PM ----------

I'm on internal too. It really does showcase the NT nicely eh?
[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] Anon9mouz:
You are correct the seen is amazing :D

More than the barns and noble rom or maybe is the wallpaper :rolleyes:

Wifi is set to never sleep, and I just turn off wifi when I am not using the tablet. So those are spots that I would have turned the screen off (for dinner or something) and just left the wifi on. Then at night, I turn off wifi while I am sleeping and at work.

This is still the same battery charge as yesterday with another 4 hours of hammering on it. Youtube, twitter, web browsing, WWF, you name it. I had 2 little lockup/reboots, but other than that, it handled everything I threw at it.

I read off of currents every night (I have about 16 items in my list). Update every time before I start surfing through. No issues at all.
[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] conundrum768:
Here's the .apk.
[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] Dariobrit:
Hey! Since last sunday I have my NT running fine with CM7 (well, with already known bugs). I installed many applications and so. But today I turned on and it automatically jumped to "reset factory defaults"... :confused: I let it go and it recovered the B&N 1.4 original software!

Well... thinking a bit, I can assume that I booted 8 times with CM7, but the NT didn't recognize it as a normal boot and thinks that it has failed 8 times... Am I right? Is there a way to avoid this problem or should I have to do a full backup once I booted 7 times :(

Thanks!
[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] cgdash:
I haven't rebooted that many times yet, but that'd be an easy thing to confirm. Just redo it and reboot 10 times normally from CM7. If it does the same thing, maybe there's an issue no one knows about.
[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] CelticWebSolutions:
I think I may know why that is, the system needed a file to reset the boot count but it was omitted during the build, Gonc though it was there and I thought it had been moved it a kernel file so neither of us questioned each other. We discovered this was missing last night and it's been added into the upcomming update.

Apologies if you lost anything but I'm afraid it come with the joys of testing !
[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] ms2003:
I want to restore back to 1.40, but when I using my backup files, it met errors when restoring data, I don't know why. for I flashed internal CMW, so I can't use 8 times boot break to recover.

what can I do now? can I use the downgrade file "acclaim_update.zip" AdamOutler provided before and using CMW to flash?
[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] tonyp22:
Will this be an issue for those of us doing the SD card version?
[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] Dariobrit:
hehe, no problem I didn't lose anything important :) Nothing happened to the sdcard data, so only the app installed were lost. Of course we're all testing and trying to help! :cool:

Keep up the good work! ;)
[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] CelticWebSolutions:
What error are you getting? May I ask why y0u are going back to 1.4?
[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] CelticWebSolutions:
That’s a good question actually, If I'm 100% honest I'm not actually sure!
[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] ms2003:
for h264 can't use, and I want to check whether titian backup has same issues when restoring big apps( for other people said there's no problem in original rom)

anyway, I will restore again to see what errors it raise, but the error will only on the screen a very short time, I'm not sure whether I can catch.

maybe my dada is too huge? the backup file is around 2.5G

I just used that downgrade file in CMW, it can't work.

---------- Post added at 01:50 AM ---------- Previous post was at 01:45 AM ----------

it just shows: Error while restoring /data!

the previous message is too quick to catch:(
[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] CelticWebSolutions:
The aclaim zip is to boot form SD card not use in CWM I'm afraid.

Let me know what your error is when you find it :)
[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] ae1990:
Lol have no success with flash I downloaded flag player 11 and a few browsers no luck will keep trying lol
[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] ms2003:
the error message just shows: Error while restoring /data!

nothing else
[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] CelticWebSolutions:
OK how are people testing flash because it's downloaded and worked fine for me right from day 1 ?

If people are going to the mobile youtube site then thats not flash.

What are you testing on?
[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] CelticWebSolutions:
sounds like your archive is damaged, if your data isn't all that important you could delete the data archive (back it up somewhere in case you need it) from clockworkmod/backup/yourarchive/

That might allow you to restore.
[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] ms2003:
for I deleted devicemanager before backup, now if I do a factory rest, it can't let me in...

it seems the only way left to me is to continue using CM7 alfa1...
[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] CelticWebSolutions:
Not at all, if you still have access to CWM you can go HERE and downloaded a rooted stock rom to flash with CWM :)
[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] Mephikun:
For anyone having the issue of a black screen with the SD method, member 'teeks' sent me a PM today with this solution:

Say thanks to teeks!
[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] ms2003:
I tried, it can't work, will stop at the boot screen...

I'm only waiting for your new ROM now and fall back to use the first CM7..

or can you PM me the new CM7 download link?
[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] elmulletlargo:
The Missing File

Is there any chance you could post the missing file and tell us where to put it? Or give us the name so we could pull it from the stock image? I suppose the other option would just be to tell us where to put it. ;)

If the beta is coming soon, not big deal. But I'm loving the alpha and would hate any interruptions. Thanks
[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] ae1990:
I haven't found any websites that I can find anything flash to play or its not displaying them other than YouTube but that is no flash as you stated and it won't play either. Now I have tried to watch a video in a forum but the box went blank and did nidnt do anything. It was a video from you tube..has anyone got Bluetooth working yet.

Note that I moved flash to system and changed properties to rw r r like the other apps in system I'm am going to revert them to how they were
[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] CelticWebSolutions:
Ateth bottom of the youtube page it says desktop which will take you to the desktop version which uses flash, or even better go into your browser settings and change from android to a desktop browser instead :)

NO go on bluetooth, we're not even looking at the moment sorry
[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] ae1990:
Which version flash do you have installed? Where is it ie data/app or system/app? Permissions I uninstalled and then reinstalled with no luck. I found a web page that "tests flash" now I k ow that my YouTube app is not flash as it plays just fine =D its just theweb page videos I shall try again and report back thanks!
[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] tonyp22:
Well, some testing results from my SD card version.

1. So far I'm seeing pretty decent battery life. I don't have Google location services running so that may be helping.

2. Rom Manager consistently FCs.

3. The Logitech Squeezebox app is working fine so far, even displaying album artwork.

4. SpeedTest is dog slow. Takes forever to load, and any button press takes 10s of seconds to respond. The actual results show that WiFi is slower than when I was running NT 1.4.0 rooted (10 kbps vs. 13 kbps), but the newest Kindle Reader took almost an hour to download! Maybe the Amazon server was having problems, but I'm not sure.

5. Amazon Video installed and runs, but when I try to launch a video it says that my Tablet is no longer configured properly for playing Amazon Videos.

6. No other web videos seem to run either. Youtube etc, although I have to look at the recent posts regarding Youtube. In all cases they will not run. The browser does not FC. It pops a message but I can't recall what it was.

7. Root Explorer seems to work fine.

8. WiFi Analyzer doesn't FC, but doesn't ever seem to actually load.
[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] CelticWebSolutions:
I haven't done anything special at all, I just downloaded the current version 11 form the market, installed it and then went to browser and watched some vids in the desktop version of the web broswer.

No changing settings or permissions or anything, just install and use :)
[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] CelticWebSolutions:
Hi Tony,

Thanks for the feedback.

I have a feeling that your install is not quite as it should be, I just made up an SD version and booted up form it (I've been running internal). As mentioned above if you visit the full version of youtube video will play fine, so have a crack at that one at let me know.

The bit that worries me is your slow wifi and rom manager force closing, I've just tried rom manager on mien and it opened fine and then I did a fix permissions and rebooted so thats working as it should.

Next I booted back up again I tried wifi analyser, I've not used it before so I went and got it form the market and installed it. Assuming I downloaded the correct one (icon is a sort of analogue needle type thing) it ran fine showing all my home networks and how strong the signal was.

I don't really know what to suggest but there's definitely an issue with your setup. Have you tried doing anything that may have altered system files like manually changing permissions or possibly changing busybox or something?

I'd be interested in some more info on this one like it sounds

like you're not getting a very good experience here and it should be much better!
[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] CelticWebSolutions:
We're having difficulties wit the last main issue before we can release next verison of CM7 Alpha. It's the market issue where it won't instal larger software is there a card in the sd slot.

If anybody think they can help or more importantly has an idea how to fix it, please go HERE

Thank you!
[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] ms2003:
after several hours' trying, i finally returned to official rom.

and i tried restore the same app with the same titian backup, it works.

just as you said, CM7 cannot install big apps? it's really a big issue:(
[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] Swiissjokr:
The Wi-Fi just stopped working all of a sudden. I've rebooted and still it just turns on & won't even search for any wifi in its area.
[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] daedricgeek:
Great Work

Hi Celtic

Great Work . I take it that this means the Sdcard issue is fully resolved :)

Btw if you don't mind pointing out where that bug was, It would be helpful because the same spot could be the cause of the pending issues too...

Thnx

DaedricGeek
[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] rigbyrobot:
I had similar issues when I pushed wpa_supplement to the rooted stock 1.4.0. the fix for it then was to find the file and fix the permissions. try booting into cmw, wipe cashe, wipe dalvic, run fix permissions and see if that helps
[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] ae1990:
I've rebooted quite a few times and have not had that problem unless its only for people with the stock recovery as I'm using the internal cwm recovery installed by the app which I have on drop box if you guys need it pm me and ill send you a link for the cwm recovery to flash internally

Thanks!

The recovery NOT the rom!
[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] tonyp22:
CWS, the only thing I did different was in the sizing of the three partitions (I think I mentioned this in a previous message). I made /BOOT somewhere around 1.4-1.6 GB; /system around 500 MB; /data the remainder. I did not use TB to restore my apps. I did it the old fashioned way - I pulled all the apks off my rooted 1.4.0 ROM and copied them to the /BOOT partition. When I booted off the SD card I installed them all.
[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] mikedett91:
Celtic, I'm also curious what the SD issue really was in tech terms
[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] CelticWebSolutions:
When you copied the files across did you use sudo-fileroller? It sounds like there may possibly be a permissions problem on your setup. The size of the partitions shouldn't really hurt so I cant imagine it's that.
[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] CelticWebSolutions:
Which SD issue are you talking about?
[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] mikedett91:
The one that bricked the tablets specifically
[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] LordGibson:
Is this what you're looking for?
[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] mikedett91:
That's the issue that I'm asking about yes. I'm curious as to what caused that bug :)
[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] Anon9mouz:
Me too honestly

___________________________________________
[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] CelticWebSolutions:
In very straight forward terms, our build was based on the Nook Color version of CM7, the nook color has a different internal driver setup. We didn't realise this and the system had various bits of NC code left in it, namely the one that told the system which physical drive and partition was the SDcard, as I'm sure you can guess it was wrong! instead of formatting the SD card it would format the 1st partition of the Internal emmc instead which is the xloader. This would then cause the system to be incapable of booting.

Luckily for us all the system does check if there is a boot system on SD so the fix is to boot from SD and copy the xloader image back to the correct place on the emmc and all should be well again :)

Hope that explains it to you :)
[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] LordGibson:
More specifically, this, apparently.
[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] mikedett91:
Thanks guys, those explanations were exactly what I was looking for :D

BTW I thanked in post to show that I understand now, not to clog the forum Also gonna use the button
[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] tonyp22:
Yes, I did. I couldn't copy anything to /system without using file-roller. I can check the permissions when I get home.

What should I expect to see?
[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] codygs83:
Anyone have an issue with the clock not keeping the correct time? The system clock is about 5 hours ahead on mine.
[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] CelticWebSolutions:
Looking at mine is bang on to my computers time and I set the tablet on sunday, all I've done is apply updates since and none had anything to do with the clock.

When you say it's 5 hours ahead, is it always 5 hours ahead? I.e. have you just set it to think it's in the wrong region?
[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] conundrum768:
If he's on the US East Coast, then that would put him GMT -5:00. I know that you're in the UK, Celt, does the ROM have it's default region set to GMT?
[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] CelticWebSolutions:
More than likely yes, it came of my device so would most likely have my settings
[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] codygs83:
I just manually set it and then changed it back to automatic and reboooted and its right back to midnight over here and its only 6 central time. No big deal ill just keep it on manual date and time. Just wanted to see if I was the only one with this issue. Other than that I have no major issues with the internal cm7.

I apologize I said 5 hours but its actually 6 hours ahead.
[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] johninsf:
While I had Cm7 internal installed, I saw the same behavior. I had to manually set time as it kept defaulting to GMT when automatic then rebooted.

Sent from my BNTV250
[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] Mike_IronFist:
That's odd, I was able to set the time to Eastern/Standard myself (I'm in New York) and I've had no trouble since.
[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] CapsLockKey:
Yeah I could tell the ROM was saved overseas, it came default with GMT and the UK English language as default. :)
[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] johninsf:
I have since restored to mod stock but could try to re-produce by re-restoring CM7 internal that CWS originally produced. Let me know if needed.

As codygs83 described, I can manually set time, and did so twice, but with auto on, NT finds its way back to GMT when rebooted.

FWIW, I would prefer to let all you geniuses focus on the CM74NT update THEN re-test internal. (I do QA in real life and will give it the business once ready.)
[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] RadicalAns:
Just had an odd bug. I was watching a fullscreen video in the YouTube app. After it finished I turned the tablet into portrait mode to switch videos, but the screen stayed black and it seemed like the tablet froze. There was no response from any of the buttons or the touch screen. I'm running off of the SD card. This is the only glitch I've seen so far though.
[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] dang69:
Ha! I didn't even think that this was a Celtic flavored rom. I just checked and sure enough I was on UK English. I probably didn't notice as I installed Swype minutes after loading this and it knows what language I can misspell best with.

My clock was set to pacific time early on and never changed.
[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] upcboy:
I've had it to the same thing to me. I fixed it by using the Factory Data Rest Lost everything but the wifi Came back up working.. I've noticed a Trend maybe someone else can confirm but Open Wifi Networks Never Seem to work on the CM7 build. It was actually an Open Network I was trying to connect to when the Wifi Died on me.. Can anyone Else Confirm?
[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] Mike_IronFist:
I've connected to plenty of open/non-secured Wi-Fi networks today with CM7, so no. Are you using the SD build? I'm running off internal, but I heard the SD build has some hardware problems here and there.
[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] Know-Fear:
I have had no problems scanning and connecting to open and secure networks. The network at my house and the tether from my phone are both secured. We have an open network at work that I can connect to fine as well. Once I set my wifi sleep policy, I haven't had any more issues with wifi at all.
