Open CWM clear cache partition and then advanced clear dalvik cache and reboot it should clear your memory u must be surfing a lot on stock browser if even this didn't solve your problem reset your phone
[Blade General] shek007:
What is cwm ? And where can I find it ?

Also, what is dalvik cache and how do I clear it ?
[Blade General] saaransh9:
clockworkmod rest is mentioned in the above post
[Blade General] Amphoras:
The 162.5MB is the total internal memory available for your apps and their data. The 24.57MB is how much of that is free at the moment. When you move an app to the sdcard, some of it is left behind on the internal memory, so you can't get rid of all of it. You can increase the amount of internal memory available by creating an ext partition on your sdcard (though it looks like you only have a 2GB sdcard, so you wouldn't have much space left for music etc. on it) and then using something like darktremor a2sd to move your apps to the new ext partition. This works differently from the normal move to sdcard as it allows you to move the whole app so frees more space.

The other option is repartitioning the internal memory. This means you take some of the space from where the rom is installed, and add it to the data partition so you can make use of it. For this to work well you need to use/be using a custom rom as the stock ones wont fit in the reduced space.

This isn't really a long term solution. The dalvik cache is needed by the phone, so wiping it will only temporarily give you more space until the phone rebuilds it all once you use your apps again. The cache partition is separate from the data partition, so wiping that would make no difference to how much space you have available.
[Blade General] zajith:
Which ROM you are working on? It seems like you have stock ROM as you are unaware of CWM. If you are using stock rom, you need to switch to any custom rom to flash darktremor a2sd so that you can partition you sd card and install applications on them. You can get complete tutorial on installing CWM and custom rom from cyanogenmod website. You can uninstall bloatwares if there any to free your phone memory.
[Blade General] shek007:
I can change my sd card to 16 or 32 GB :D.

That is not a problem..

Now, can you please tell me how do I do external partitioning ?

or how do I do repartitioning of internal memory?

I'm using dafult one I guess.. As I never install any rom before..
[Blade General] zajith:
You need to root and install a custom rom to partition both internal as well as external memory efficiently. You can flash darktremor a2sd script that allows you to install apps on partitioned sd card to your rooted stock rom but it won't work (didn't work for me).

Almost all the custom rom come with darktremor a2sd pre-installed on it. So it is advised to switch to any custom rom. But beware, both rooting and installing custom rom will void your warranty. Once you install a custom rom, i'm sure you will love it.

You can find guide on partitioning internal memory on the following links

h**p://android.modaco.com/topic/339048-guide-flashing-firmware-to-bladelibra-via-windows/

and here

h**p://android.modaco.com/topic/337426-gen1gen2partition-layout-tool-windows-only/

But i personally won't recommend partitioning you internal memory as the following ICS rom uses the default like partition.

You can follow the following link below to root and flash cyanogenmod

h**p://wiki.cyanogenmod.com/index.php?title=ZTE_Blade

If you find rooting steps given in the guide difficult you can install z4root from following link and install it on your phone to root the phone easily.

h**p://www.4shared.com/file/TA3fZuTc/z4root_zte_blade_permanent_roo.html

Once you install cyanogenmod install "ROM MANAGER" from market and there you will find the option to partition your sd card.

Regards...
[Blade General] Amphoras:
You can partition the sdcard from ClockworkMod recovery, which you need to flash the custom rom or the darktremor scripts to make use of the ext partition. Some roms come with it pre-installed, others you have to flash it separately.

You can repartition the internal memory by TPT or Windows flasher. TPT is the easier and safer method. From your internal memory stats you posted earlier, it looks like you are stock Gen 2, but download the Mr Pigfish app from the market to check.

If it says you are Gen 1, then you can use one of wbaw's TPTs from his thread on here, or you can use them from my app. Once you use one of these, you will be converted to Gen 2 as well.

If you are Gen 2 already then you are most likely stock Gen 2 and will need to use the TPT's from my app (choosing the stock Gen 2 option when it starts), from the thread I made on here, or by using the Windows flasher.
[Blade General] cowscrubber:
Here's a tip that I just recently discovered.

Since apps that are flashed in your rom (like Market) cannot be deleted in a conventional sense, a duplicate of the app is created whenever they are updated. I found an app called apps2rom that moves the updated version to the rom, and deletes the old version.

I got a good 10mb from that.

[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] .xxx.:
Okay.!! Maybe you are new to all these things.

To you question, the answer is:

Applications such as ad blocker, ad free etc. are those applications which actually modifies a specific host file in your system and this helps in blocking the ads. So, it is a one tiime running of the app and the app doesn't run in the background and thus, no battery drain :)

Frequently Asked Questions:

Can i update Adobe Flash and Air -

Yes, the Adobe boot loop fix is applied with MN 5

Does this block OTA updates -

Starting with ManualNooter-5.08.20 you now have the option to flash a package that will block B&N updates by using the SQLite method

update_disable.zip - You can also download, and flash this using CWM at any time to block B&N updates.

update_enable.zip - If you need to unblock B&N updates at any time, you can flash this file using CWM to restore the update function.

Can I change the stock keyboard -

Yes, some of the best known keyboard apps have all been tested to work. Just follow these directions to install the keyboard.

If you don't have the paid app "Root Explorer," you can download the free app "ES File Explorer." Once you open "ES File Explorer," you will need to go into settings to set root access, mount file system, and change the home directory to "/"

Download/Install the keyboard that you want to use from the market or Amazon Appstore

Open your explorer app, and navigate to /data/app

Locate the apk file for the keyboard that you just installed

Examples: com.touchtype.swiftkey-1.apk or com.swype.android.inputmethod-1.apk

Long press on the apk file, and select "Move" or "Cut"

Navigate to /system/app

If using Root Explorer, select "Mount R/W"

Now select paste to move the apk file into the /system/app folder

Exit your explorer app, and reboot the device

After the device reboots, open the app "NookColor Tools"

Select "Choose Keyboard" and select the keyboard that you just installed

If installing Swiftkey or Swype, you can now open the app to finish the install process

I did this mod from a request in another thread, LINK. It is a port of “revcompgeek’s” work under the Nook tablet section, HERE. The mod removes the QuickNav bar when you presss the n button, making it like a standard home button, and makes the back and menu buttons permanent.

I did not include it in the MN package because I am not sure how many people would want it, and it has not been tested long enough. Just simply flash the Statusbar_mod.zip file with CWM, it will take about 5 minutes to boot back up after flashing since it is a framework file. You will need to use the app “AnyCut” or “BetterCut” to create a link to the “Shop” and “Library.” If you don’t like it, simply flash the Statusbar_stock.zip file to return to stock. If you flash a new version of MN 5 after applying the Statusbar_mod.zip, you will need to reapply the Statusbar_mod.zip file again to regain it.

*UPDATE*

I noticed that "AnyCut" is currently missing from the market, and since the app was free in the market, I have attached it below.
[Nook Color Android Development] MassiveAttack:
Great!

Are there any of the limitations I've read about (read-to-me, free in-store reading) with regards to rooting 1.4.1, or are those now worked around?
[Nook Color Android Development] GMPOWER:
Around 4,000 people have kindly tested different versions over the last two months, and everything should be working properly. The key step to follow in the directions, is step 4 under “Before you begin,” You must download all your B&N content before you continue, or you run the risk of losing all access to B&N content.

I don’t remember there ever being an issue with read-to-me, I remember there being touchscreen issues with kids books in the early versions of MN 4. A handful of people did test the in-store reading function, and reported that it worked fine.

This is how I got 1.4.1 going from BN1.3 with MN:

I am running BN1.3 with MN4.6.16. I have CWM 3.0.2.8 on a bootable sd and have made a backup.

Instead of restoring to stock and then upgrading to 1.4.1, I I used the 1.4.1 image from

http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=21203895&postcount=129 and then apply MN5.02.12

Before install 1.4.1, I wipe/data and /cache then install 1.4.1.

Did another wipe/data.

Since I have an old NC with the 5gb partition, I can continue to use CWM 3.0.2.8.

After rooting BN1.4.1, if I am unhappy, I can just restore my old BN1.3 backup.

Please help with rooting

Did you ever get a reply on this? I've tried Win32DiskImager and WinImage, using two different size SD cards, formatting first, and not formatting first, and just about every variation I could think of.

Prior to booting, my SD card has the four files on it, plus the ZIP file. After booting the NC, the NC simply boots normally, and places it's folders on the card. I never see the CW menu. Any info you can help me with?

Thanks.

Some additional info:

-Nook Color system v1.4.1

-Using a Micro SD adapter for the slot in my laptop; will try a USB Adapter next

-Using an 8Gb sd card; will try a smaller one next

-Have found that formatting the SD card first with SDFormatter v3.1 seems to help with the "File is in use" errors

The only connection problem I have had is when the NC is powered off or not fully booted.

You might want to install Samba from Play Store. It allows you to connect to your wi-fi network and access your NC from your PC, wirelessly. Assuming, that you have your own wi-fi network.

re: Battery Life

Really enjoying the Manual Nooter on 1.4.2, however I did have to go back to the stock kernel because of the horrible battery life on Dalingrin's OC kernel. Maybe it's just my settings - I don't know. Several people have raised the same issue and there doesn't seem to be any response or solution.

I would set my Nook down for the night with at least 50% or more battery left. Then, when I would pick it up the next morning to read my book the battery would be too low to power on.

The main feature that I will miss about Dalingrin's OC kernel is the ability to adjust the speaker and headphone volume. Is there a "stock-like" kernel that has the volume fix feature? Is there another way to adjust the speaker/headphone volume? Is there a fix for the overnight battery drain issue? THANKS!

Ron
[Nook Color Android Development] dparrothead1:
When you say that you went back to the "stock kernel", do you mean back to stock B&N or the "stock kernel" option in manualnooter? If you are still rooted, you can download the "Nook Tweaks" app from the Play Store and it gives you all the audio and CPU overclocking options.

When I was running manualnooter, I used the "stock kernel" option because it gives you the apps2sd card support.
[Nook Color Android Development] capnron65:
re: stock kernel

I have the B&N stock kernel and there is no support for Nook Tweaks with this kernel.

Are you having any battery issues like I described with the kernel you are using?

Can I use the "stock kernel" with apps2sd card support, like you are using, even though I rooted with the non-apps2sd version of Manual Nooter? I don't really care about apps2sd support on my Nook. Should just do another backup and then give it a try.

I could just flash everything again, but I would rather just flash a new kernel if it will fix my issues.

Thanks for the response.

Ron
[Nook Color Android Development] dparrothead1:
capnron, I am using MIUI now and really love it. It you want to keep all the B&N functions and android, I would use the second option. The battery life didn't seem any different than the regular stock kernel.

I liked the apps2sd because I could clear up internal sd space by moving the apps to the external card. I really liked manualnooter but I found that I like MIUI better.

I would give it a shot.....worse that can happen is that you have to go back to stock!!! BTW, do you have an eye patch...:laugh::laugh:
[Nook Color Android Development] capnron65:
Nope...no eye patch. Not yet anyway!

Alright, I will probably re-nooter it with the apps2sd support. I'm not looking forward to redoing it though 'cause I just got finished re-flashing my phone and getting it set up how I like it.

I'm already in WAY over my head with this stuff and I have only the slightest idea what MIUI is.

Thanks again,

[Nook Color Android Development] bluepen61:
5.2.19 and Dalingrin's OC seems to work with 1.4.3.

Because I have dual boot on emmc, I made a backup of CM7 with CWM. Then I moved B&N from the alternate partition to the primary partition using BNalt2pri and mad a backup of that with CWM.

My next step was to reformatdata by using the reformatdata. Then brought it back to stock flashing 1.4.1. After logging onto B&N and downloading my B&N stuff, I updated to 1.4.3.

Then I rooted with 5.2.19. Market did not want to update, so I did the fix permissions and then the Market visibility process, both listed in the OP. After reboot, Market updated to Playstore.

Then I moved B&N /rooted to the alternate partition and restored CM7 to the primary partition.

Whew! :cool:

In essence, I did a fresh install of B&N stock to MN.

Love my NC!
[Nook Color Android Development] dparrothead1:
You can do this to block OTA updates:

Download Root Explorer from the play store....its not free but its worth it.

Open Root Explorer:

Tap on Data

Tap on Data

Tap on com.bn.devicemanager.

Tap on databases

Tap on devicemanager.db

Tap on registry

Turn to go to landscape mode (should look like a spread sheet)

Go to com.bn.device.fota.mode and look over to the "value" column. It should say auto or automatic.

Long touch on Auto and choose "edit fields".

Change Auto to Manual and hit save.
[Nook Color Android Development] DizzyDen:
You can also install CWM or TWRP 2.1 as recovery on eMMC... unless B&N changed the update in 1.4.3 this will cause the update to fail ;)

The reason for this to fail is that B&N uses their recovery for updating... and their updater-script file is not properly formatted in the first line for CWM or TWRP to install it.
