Okay. So I'm about to do a Titanium Backup of my rooted 1.4.0 NT before doing the CM7 install (I lied; I'm not going to wait for the SD card version :D). First question: has anyone done a TB restore yet on to the new CM7 Alhpa? And then it never occurred to me until now - with TB I'll get a backup of everything that's installed internally, but how do I go about getting a backup of what's on SD? Many of us have installed apps which are on the SD card.

NETFLIX and HULU Install and now Amazon Video

To install the stock B&N Hulu and Netflix apps (both working) just follow these simple instructions:

1. Download Netflix from here: http://www.mediafire.com/?6zeuo9k68n9zzba

2. Download Hulu from here: http://www.mediafire.com/?irkjka2f1ff8v35

3. Mount your Sdcard to a computer and drop whichever app you would like installed on it

4. Unmount the Sdcard and open File Manager or any other File Explorer app

5. Go to your /mnt/sdcard or /sdcard file location and select the apk you want to install

Done! Now enjoy ;)

(Optional) For those who push this to /system/app folder you will have to open /system/app and reinstall the apks for them to work properly.

Final Note, I'm currently working on porting the Amazon Video app as well but no timeline or priority for that.

EDIT: Amazon Video can be found here, but it will require you to use OC Unrooter:

The internal mic seems to be very cheap and B&N didn't bother taking much time to write a decent driver for it so alot of apps don't know what to do with it at the moment. Hopefully we will get this squared away in the near future (I would like to use Voice too ;) )
[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] ms2003:
thank you for your grate works!

I flashed the 12th alpha version, didn't meet SD card issue.

but still have one annoying issue: this is still app installation related issue, some apps that cannot installed/restore in the first release can successfully restored, but some still cannot, maybe this is another issue? For example, Airattact HD 1.3/Bejeweled 2, cannot restored in this ROM, the phenomenon is just the same as in the first ROM released, but in B&N originally ROM, their restore have no problems.

hope you can find the cause.
[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] akaempf:
Downloaded and installed. Both applications are working fine. Thank you for the quick turnaround.
[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] Know-Fear:
Re-download them from the market. There should be no hangups about app installation. Check to make sure your sdcard is being mounted.

---------- Post added at 07:21 PM ---------- Previous post was at 07:20 PM ----------

Backup of all user apps should include just that.
[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] dang69:
Wiped cache only and installed over first alpha with no problems.

MX Video Player pro works much better.

I really appreciate the work you guys!

I was about to report that the speaker was louder before I realized I have it out of the case to insert SD.
[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] Know-Fear:
Aye, the mono of the speaker still sucks. I installed EQ from the market and it seems to help a little bit.

For Library book access download Overdrive Console from the market. You can checkout, download and read library books from your NT running CM7.
[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] ms2003:
so quickly? but i suggest you solve the hardware decoding first and then you can move the perfect CM7 to 8GB version, frankly speaking, i don't think there will be much people would buy this 8GB version:D
[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] CelticWebSolutions:

[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] dang69:
And...uh....why are you in the store?
[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] sangahm:
I go to the store about once a week to take advantage of the free reading of the books. Many of these books are not on the shelves, as they can only carry so much inventory in the store. I understand that many others do not value the RIS option, but for me that is one of the big reasons I upgraded to the NT over the Fire.

So for me, I'll patiently wait for the SD card version so I can boot to either ROM at my leisure. That's how I did it with my NC and liked that option.
[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] CelticWebSolutions:
your patience will be rewarded soon enough ;)
[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] quid246:
If you can get the module to work, let me know... I'll gladly test it out... I have the "magic spot" that I can cause the NT to hang basically when I want. :)

Forgive me if this has been mentioned already but I've noticed upon installing cm7 I have no lock screen anymore. Is this supposed to be this way? I even changed a setting in the settings to have a lock screen setup to no avail. Any ideas? Also noticed the xda device app force closes alot to the point makes it not worth using sadly.

Unless I'm looking in the wrong spot (CY settings then lock screen) still not working. I've tried slide bar rotary none seem to work. I do not have a lock pin set just would like a lock screen....do I need to reboot after changing setting for it to occur?

Rearrange Homescreen Icons

Ok, so maybe I just don't understand how this is supposed to work, but I can't seem to move / delete icons or widgets from my homescreen. When I press and hold an icon, nothing happens. No menus pop up, they don't start vibrating.

Is it just a setting I'm missing somewhere, or is it just not working properly on my device?
[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] dang69:
Sounds like it's not working. I get a rectangular menu above the icon when long pressed. Replace, rename, delete, uninstall. There is also a trash bar at the top which drops down when first long pressed.

I don't think we have a vibrator do we?
[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] ckevinwelch:

Batt to low to start but Green LED on Charge cord

I flashed it to CM7 yesterday powered on/off of a couple of times. Ignored batt low warning at 15% ran it down to 10%.

Put on charger but not B&N cord (this has charged it before) for 7 hrs

Got Battery too low to power on. Message.

Plugged it into wall charger with B&N Cable now have Green n but will not power up or give message.

Plug it into PC with B&N cord. Get Battery to low message n is orange but flickers green periodicly

I too have some issues with the Google music app. I have approximately 13 or so gig if music on my 16 gig class 6 ridata SD card. If I remember right I had similar issues when I was running froyo on my Droid Eris. It takes forever (if at all) to load the albumm list so I can choose what music I want to listen to. If the albumns load...for instance I was playing a linkin park CD..128kbps mp3 collection..after a short time my nook randomly rebooted whenit had gone into standby. Any ideas? Try runnning a different media player? Thanks in advance
[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] PlacidCat:
Hmm. I'll have to try that again. Last I tried that with books from my public library it didn't work. The Overdrive Console only worked for books on tape, not the ePub variety.

Also to those replying that they get B&N store content working - indeed, I have no problem with that. However, I was talking about checking out books from the public library, not purchased content from the B&N electronic store. Unless the B&N app has some function built in for library books I'm not sure why you brought that up.

One additional hang-up that is preventing me from going whole-hog internal install is the fact that the B&N Nook reader from the Google Market does not support the animated/narrated children's books. I have three kids, two of which are at the age where they can't quite read yet and it's fun to give them additional exposure to books outside of bedtime reading with my wife and I. I will continue to patiently wait for SD bootable solutions.
[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] nooknut:
Perfect timing! I have the same issue!!! Can't charge the darn thing now. Simply keeps flashing the battery low, wait 15 minutes and try again constantly. Unit is warm too. :(
[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] mogrith:
At least we are not alone. Did you let charge drop below 15%?
[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] ckevinwelch:
This happened to me once. I left it on the charger long enough, and it eventually booted.
[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] nooknut:
Yes. Will leave it overnight on charger and see what happens.
[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] ckevinwelch:
I don't think it was more than twenty minutes before it was back on.
[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] tselling:
The Overdrive Media Console has been upgraded to include books, both epub and kindle ebooks. My NT running CM7 is recognized by Adobe Digital Editions... I don't know if that is a side effect of Overdrive being loaded and run since I didn't check until recently.

For children's books that read to them aloud do a market search on Oceanhouse Media. They have a lot of good ones and work like any android app. I purchased several for my son when he was first learning to read. He still loves the Lorax, and the apps have the option to read by themselves as well.
[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] nooknut:
OK, got it to boot. Took a half hour (and it was plugged into my Mac with a cheap third party cable, not an AC charger)

Oh, and says 16% charged, so I must have JUST made it ;)

P.S.

I somehow convinced my mac NOT to try and mount it. Not sure how, but when it stopped trying to mount, it stopped trying to boot the Nook. I'm sure that was important, otherwise it was just sittin' and spinnin'.
[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] mogrith:
Looks that did it just left it plugged in for another 8 hrs and it booted up:)
[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] eybarra2:
I experienced the same thing! I wasn't plugged in or anything, I just put it down and when I tried to wake it, nada. This has happened to me a few times since I flashed 2 days ago. the device was "on", as I could hear the volume buttons changing the volume even tho the screen wouldn't wake. I did the same as you; held down power until (I assumed) it turned off for real, then turned back on. Bout 4 times so far.
[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] Sw339:
I've had that too. Aswell as 1 random reboot.

It happens maybe once a day, goes into sleep then acts like it's turned off. If I go into a dark room I can see the screen is actually on, so I have to power it off then on again. I considered it a hazard of Alpha testing.
[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] blackhat007:
how can i go back to stock rom when i'm in CM7? I try 8 times reset but it doesn't work !

Thank you! That was it. After I first installed I was trying to figure out how to enable the lockscreen, and I had enabled the "Lock Desktop" setting (Accessible via the "main menu -> more" selection). After unlocking the desktop all is well again.

Well... rom works great, but still I can't access the internal 11gb neither from the PC or from the nook explorer.

that sounds right, you need to mount r/w to move files to it using es file explorer or root explorer

Battery question. So after going through the "not enough charge to boot" fiasco, I charged it all the way. I noticed this morning that I lost about 30% charge over night. I didn't turn the unit off, just put it to sleep. Is that normal loss?

Also, when I look at the battery graph, it is fairly consistent.
[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] Mike_IronFist:
A curious thing happened to me. I opened the reboot menu to get into recovery, and the "rebooting Tablet" dialogue never disappeared - in other words, it never rebooted, it just kept the "rebooting Tablet" dialogue going. I had to hold the power button down until it fully shut off, then reboot into recovery manually.
[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] ckevinwelch:
I think that's not unreasonable, depending on what applications may be running in the background. I've been keeping mine in Airplane mode, and just turning WiFi off and on when I need it. I don't lose any battery when sleeping, but it's a little bit of a pain to manage (since it takes a minute or so for WiFi to turn on every time).
[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] Voyaging:
unresponsive after idle for 1 hour

Firstly let me say THANK YOU to all who had anything to do with making this alpha build feel like it's not an alpha build! kuddos! Very nice.

The only issue i've ran into thus far was here recently. I was in the middle of download a few apps, etc. and left it idle while i cooked dinner. When i came back, i hit home button -- nothing. I hit power button -- nothing. I held down power button for a power up -- nothing. I thought..hmm maybe battery ran down somehow. I plugged into power supply and it booted up. Then i noticed i had 65% battery life remaining. So it seems it somehow powered down and would only boot up by plugging in USB...is this a known issue?

Thanks!

Tommy
[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] nerdyjim:
Has anyone experienced SODs with CM7 Alpha12? I am at least assuming they are SOD as I have not had much experience in dealing with them. I will lock my NT and then when i hit the power button to wake it up again, It takes a bit to come on and it always varies in time. Other than that I have been LOVING CM7 Alpha12.
[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] Anon9mouz:
Yea but there's other tabs out there that has it I just wanna know if it's a hidden setting or something

See I been having music problems too when I get home ima upload like 3 logcats and see if that can help then smash that bug:D

Odd problem

I tried installing "Tracing ABC" by "remarkable" (com.remarkable.tracingabcfull on the market, since I can't post links yet). Market says it's compatible, and it let me install on the device, but when I launch it, I get an error:

"Warning:

This device is not supported"

Nothing more. Seemed to happen on another educational app too. Don't know why?
[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] CelticWebSolutions:
Not a fau;t of the rom as such, more a fault of the software, it's doing a check of the device or maybe looking for an imei and not finding what it wants so giving the error. it really depends what the software is looking for to be honest.
[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] ckevinwelch:
I've corresponded with the developer on that one. The IDE they use has some quirks and is device-specific. They have a NT, and are working on making it compatible. Very responsive group, by the way.

Skimmed the thread, dont know if this was listed or not. I think I found a bug that I can replicate on mine. I have Win7 64 bit ultimate on two different computers. When plugging the NT in (CWM newest released) and transferring a file to the sd card, when turning off the sharing, i have, 2 times out of 4, had the tablet lock up and have had to reboot it. One of the two times I had also ejected the tablet from the computer first. The other two times, there seemed to be no problem. Also, no problem with using for example wifi explorer pro.

HI yes this has been mentioned before. IT's on my personal list of known issues although I can't personally replicate it. Same as with battery life, I have exellent battery life on my tablet but some are saying it's awful (think it's down to what software they are using on their device).

Regarding Wifi issue

I've had the wifi issue connecting/disconnecting, showing error, freezing, etc.

My wifi is set to never sleep. I've tried connecting with a static IP, but it didn't solve the problem.

Just wanted to share what has worked for me regarding the Wifi issue.

I downloaded "Wifi Analyzer" and in the Setting> Other Setting: check "auto-wifi on"; uncheck "auto wifi off when exit".

I installed this app this morning and my wifi has not disconnected once at all. My wifi is still set to never sleep and I still have the connection with Static IP.

I hope this helps at least one person!

BTW, the only other issue I have so far is that it is taking my nook overnight (7 + hours) to fully charge.

[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] coverslide:
So... I think i did something very stupid. It seems I couldn't get Astro File Manager to browser Internal Memory, External SD Card, etc. Even though it seems to show disk usage just fine. So I tried fiddling with Storage settings and I hit "Format Internal Memory." After that, a reboot was taking longer than 1/2 hour, so I decided to try reflashing, which seemed to not give me any errors. Unfortunately, in CWM (from SD), none of the partitions seem to be mounting. Trying do anything gives me a "Cannot mount /xxxxx/" error, or "E:format_volume: make_Extf4fs failed on /xxxxxx/". So... I guess maybe I messed up some internal partitions. Is there any way to restore them to their original state? It seems every update writes to partitions that have already been set up properly, but is there anything to repair partitions that have already been FUBARed?
