[Nook Color Android Development] 12paq:
Krylon360 has been working on the 3.0 kernel with fat_tire et al, and openly on the side compiled an AOKP unofficial build for the Nook Color (not with the new kernel of course). AOKP is another ICS rom partially forked from AOSP, CM9 and new code to be built with many more UI options. I have been testing a pre release for a couple of weeks. It's a WIP, that runs great on my Nook, but most CM9 bugs are still present.
[Nook Color Android Development] Homer_S_xda:
Thanks for the update!

[Nook Color Android Development] friedsonjm:
Yes, trying AOKP now... battery life seems much better, will have to see what functionality issues there are, if any... thanks jf
[Nook Color Android Development] freonchill:
im sure that someone on xda working on the nook has already started a petition to get b&n to allow TI to release the code so development for ICS will before, but i saw this one.

http://www.change.org/petitions/bar...-make-future-kernels-to-work-with-our-device#

i did notice that the lenovo A1 has the same chip - TI OMAP3621

and it appears that lenovo has an ICS directory on their FTP for the A1

not sure if its the code or an update.zip file or what, but its could be helpful...

Well now that we know that Jelly Bean is out, there are a few questions I have.

Will we move to the phone style UI now that we know that Google's 7 inch tablet will be featuring it.

Since the source will be release mid-July, will it be as hard to port over as ICS?

Just had a few questions for the devs that we have since a lot has happened in Google I/O.
[Nook Color Android Development] SeaFractor:
Hopefully, Jelly Bean being 4.1, will mean that once the 3.x Kernel is worked out for the Nook Color that it'll also be supported in Jelly Bean.

If the answer is no, then all bets are off. TI had only released an incomplete framework for the OMAP3 devices for ICS (4.0.x). I suspect a new framework, if one was required for 4.1, would be just as incomplete if not even more so.
[Nook Color Android Development] Homer_S_xda:
I'm not certain choosing the phone version is necessarily the right answer. Have a look at this hands on. Describes the phone version as "claustrophobic" which doesn't sound fantastic to me. I'm most excited about the Butter speed updates. Sounds like they took the iOS v. Android responsiveness perception to heart. Also, both ICS and JB will be shackled until we get hardware drivers for the graphics acceleration.

Homer
[Nook Color Android Development] boomn:
I assumed "claustrophobic" was his reaction to the default full-screen library widget and the rather full dock of services along the bottom not the phone layout itself.
[Nook Color Android Development] leapinlar:
I think he was talking about the Android Tool Bar, not the phone gui. He said it felt customized like the Kindle Fire. But he also said something about a non rotating home screen. I don't know what that meant.
[Nook Color Android Development] leapinlar:
boomn, you beat me. Lol
[Nook Color Android Development] afzalarsalan:
I think people will get used to the look eventually. I am sure there were complaints about the tablet interface in the beginning as well.
[Nook Color Android Development] Henk Poley:
Does anybody know why com.android.browser is doing a whole lot of "nothing" in the background when it's not active?

I've tried resetting it's data, doesn't help the CPU usage.
[Nook Color Android Development] afzalarsalan:
I am pretty sure he was referring to the stock launcher's inability to rotate in phone mode. While our tablets can rotate, I am pretty sure phones or devices with the Phone UI are unable rotate their launchers to landscape. I have a Nexus S and know that with stock ICS I am unable to rotate the default launcher.
[Nook Color Android Development] leapinlar:
Yeah you are right. I am in the phone GUI, but using ADW EX and it rotates. I switch to Trebuchet and it rotates. I switch to launcher and it does not rotate. Thanks for that clarification.

My nc w nonopengl nightlies would be frozen after a long sleep (wifi off during sleep). Tried disabling a few system apps to no avail. It is still having same problem after clean install, wipe everything except /boot. Before freezing, screen touch acts irregularly, wipe down but it rolls up, wifi speed from speed test app is drastically slower than actual speed. Anybody has similar experience or fix? Rebooting would fix it.
[Nook Color Android Development] smstarrant:
I have been experiencing this also.

It may just be a coincidence, but it seems like it might be tied in with Google checking for app updates. I am basing this on my perception that the lock ups tend to happen around the same time of day (approx. 6 AM central), and I will get notices that updates are available (if there are any) right before the lock up or after the power cycle needed to recover.

Again this is just conjecture and may be completely off base.

I tried the latest version here a couple days ago... http://techerrata.com/browse/nightly_kangs/encore ) and I would repeatedly get some error during the startup about missing files, go to some .ru Russian website. Anyone else see this? I started with a freshly imaged 8GB SD card. Is there a special SD card img that has to be used?
[Nook Color Android Development] leapinlar:
Yes to both. The main problem is that the new roms are not named so that the installer recognizes them. They have to begin with update- before the installer will install them. To solve this rename them everytime you want to flash one or go to my tips thread linked in my signature to get an updated image file that has been modified to recognize the new names.

overvolt not sticking

i have used dalingrin's nook tweak to overvolt my nook and thus get a more stable, no freeze experience from cm9 on on my unit. on reboot though, the settings i provide do not stick even if i as it to load on boot after saving.

how can i create some kind of init script to launch settings on runlevel, or startup the config automatically...?

thanks

Hi I'm running cm7 in my nook, so far I can run anything on my nook, I want to update it to cm9, are there any cons? I am running CM9 by aerovan in my cell phone, love it so far. Any suggestions?
[Nook Color Android Development] anuraj1:
May I ask you what overvolt levels you are having good luck with? I would love to tweak them, but my natural instint is to go WAY too high, which is probably not the best idea haha.
[Nook Color Android Development] routey:
was on kang build 40 and found just too many bugs with it.. am now back with the cm9 nightly! thanks for keeping this running...
[Nook Color Android Development] Zorkman:
I personally find it still a bit sluggish compared to CM7 (I tried the eyeballer version with openGL of 120801)

if you appreciate stability and smoothness I think you should stick with CM7

if you like "living on the edge" and don't mind some glitches go for CM9 (but don't forget to back-up your CM7 in case you don't like it)
[Nook Color Android Development] bhess:
I tried CM9 for a few days but the battery life dropped to about 1/4 of the amount of CM7. Since I mostly use my nook to read it wasn't worth it to me.
[Nook Color Android Development] ArmitageID:
I had installed the encore opengl version a couple weeks back and decided I'd give the Goo update manager a try. I downloaded the latest nightly and told it to apply. I assume I did something wrong since it rebooted and the screen went black. No matter what I do there appears to be no life whatsoever in the system. Any ideas? No amount of holding down the power button or the n (or both at the same time) is bringing this back to life. Tried connecting to PC with ADB and no luck...it doesn't see anything.

Thanks for any tips or suggestions!
[Nook Color Android Development] leapinlar:
It could be a recovery bootloop or messed up partitions. Look at my two linked threads in my signature. Try the bootloop fixes first and if that does not do it, look at partition repair.

Edit: Just reread your post. I thought you said it booted to a blank screen. But you are saying it won't power on at all? Is your battery charged enough?
[Nook Color Android Development] ArmitageID:
Thanks for the reply. Did some more digging and figured it out. I took out my SD card and put a bootable CWM card in (with the latest nightly rom copyed on it) and it booted up to the SD card. I installed the zip and rebooted and its up and running.

Had a good scare....never had it not do ANYTHING before.

As always, I appreciate the response!!
[Nook Color Android Development] Tiezane:
Is anyone else having problems downloading through Goo update manager tonight? I get an error on every download, at least one md5 failure. Can't download any roms now. Other internet connectivity works fine. Any ideas?

Update: looks like the browser is borked, too. Play store allows for some apps to download, others hang. Thunderbolt on same wifi connection has no problems. I just installed aVia, any chance that could be my problem? Will try removing it in the morning.
[Nook Color Android Development] routey:
goo manager have never worked for me, download always fails.. i have to download the latest cm9 every night and manually add it to my sdcard to flash :laugh:
[Nook Color Android Development] leapinlar:
I think GooManager was updated a month or so ago to use it's own download manager instead of the browser's. That could be the problem. aVia might be interfering with that too.
[Nook Color Android Development] Homer_S_xda:
Funny, works ok, even via ProxyDroid since the change. I'm now running GM v. 2.1.1

Part of the issue I was having is it was trying to write to a path it did not have privileges to.

It was working fine until recently. I know this isn't too helpful, I don't know which nightly I am on right now. As soon as I have a chance, I'll let you know.

EDIT: running the 7/29 nightly. Uninstalled aVia and now I can surf the web, but I still get md5 failures on every attempt to download a Rom through GooManager.

Going to try a a direct download next.

Lost Wifi

Have never had this happen before with nightly build, but the 8/6 killed my WiFi. It sees the router, but says the signal is weak, even thou I'm 3 feet from the router. When the WiFi cycles, the signal strength is full, but when it tries to connect, the signal strength is poor again. Very annoying after having such a good experience with the nightlys/

Turns out a setting in the router got changed, we now good...nothing to see here....move along
[Nook Color Android Development] leapinlar:
You need to be more specific as to what you are looking for. Goo Manager and Rom Manager already sort of do that. They will update your rom when there is one available and you agree to it. Did you want something different?
[Nook Color Android Development] eyeballer:
He's talking about this: https://otaupdatecenter.pro

I've looked into it, and won't be implementing it for a couple of reasons:

1) You have to manually enter each build into their website for it show up as an OTA - not practical for my automated builds

2) They rely on an outside host (eg goo.im etc), so it's just another potential point of failure if their site is down

3) Goo Manager works fine, and is about to get a major overhaul to v3.0 so hold tight for that ;)
[Nook Color Android Development] ibilln:
Does the current nightly (cm-9-encore-20120810-0700-unofficial.zip) have the Krylon360 pushes of this am?

I don't understand the timing on various messages to XDA-Dev, the timing of the eyeballer builds, to exactly what K360 is pushing, or, I guess, much of anything.

In the off-chance the question makes sense, I'll be v. happy to see an answer (!).
[Nook Color Android Development] boomn:
Those changes are all being done in a separate branch for developing CM10 and public builds are not being posted yet as it is still a quickly changing work-in-progress. This thread is still for the CM9 branch that won't be seeing any more major changes

Forgive me if this has already been covered, but does anyone know why goomanager seems to have been removed from the install zips? I did search this thread and was not able to find an answer (yet). Thanks in advance all.

m-Secure/Dropbox

Is there a known issue that is preventing m-Secure from syncing with Dropbox? When I try to do this I lose my internet connection.
[Nook Color Android Development] stolenmoment:
Along those lines, GooManager is misbehaving for me. I've installed yesterday's non-open nightly (0815). When I check for updates, it notifies that there is an update ready, but tapping the notification only dismisses it, rather than going to the download page. I can browse the compatible ROMs, get to the builds, and download, but the very welcome automation is gone.

I've deleted data, installed from Market (a mistake, I now believe), gone in with Root Explorer and deleted all the (hopefully) relevant files I could find before installing the latest ROM, but no luck.

Thanks for any help you can render!

Home button not working?

For some reason the home button is not working... Both the soft button in the notification bar and the hard "n" button on the nook. The "n" will work to wake the device though
[Nook Color Android Development] RoboticBuddy:
Is there a way to "manage" the nav bar buttons, like in the official Cyanogenmod 7 builds, or like in AOKP? Because I'd really like to permanently add the Menu button, and set the buttons close to each other, not too spread apart :p

And whenever I try to install an APK, for example, from Dropbox, it always restarts and goes to the boot screen, and freezes there. I have the OpenGL version, if that helps.

[Nook Color Android Development] Googie2149:
I'm just wondering, how usable is CM9 at this stage? Is it worth replacing my CM7.2 (possibly a RC, don't remember) that I've had for several months on an SD card? If it's stable enough, how well does it perform graphics wise? Would something like Minecraft or World of Goo perform as well (if at all) on CM9 compared to CM7?

Edit: I've claimed page 99! :D
[Nook Color Android Development] RASTAVIPER:
Probably it will worth for you to have a look at the Questions section as there are already many topics about the value of CM9.

in general don't expect the fast response and full graphic experience of Cm7.

Powered by my IceCold 8.3 DHD
[Nook Color Android Development] RoboticBuddy:
What RASTAVIPER said. I've compared CM7 AND CM9, and CM7 is more stable, and has better performance for gaming, and whatnot.

I now personally use CM9, just because it looks nicer, and the status bar compared to the CM7 one :p , but to answer your question, the games run fine, Minecraft and World of Goo run smoothly, but sometimes small lags come in. If you are going to use N64oid, find the version 1.1.4. For some reason, only anything below 2.x works on ICS for Nook Color.

R800i. 'Nuff said.
[Nook Color Android Development] Deegan87:
After using cm9 for almost two months, I recently switched back to CM7 because I was sick of slow performance, freezes, and a few apps not working correctly (netflix.)

[Nook Color Android Development] Harlley Sathler:
Operation through 9 hours and battery at 89%? How you achieved it?!
[Nook Color Android Development] KingJL:
Approximately 80% of the 9+ hrs is idle (sleep). Just installed eyeballer CM9 3/9 with OpenGL. No special tweaks other than what can be set in "settings". I have the wifi being managed by GreenPower. GreenPower turns wifi off for most of the time that the screen is off and turns wifi back on when the screen wakes up (I do not have to wifi off then on to wake it up).

evergreen SD CM9 (eyeballer 3/9 OpenGL), gaps 20120304, GreenPower

9+ hrs operation, no SOD's, 89% battery... life is good!
[Nook Color Android Development] stolenmoment:
I installed 20120309 (not opengl) yesterday, with the bootani fix but none of the others, and just got 4.5 hours of deep while during my 6 hours of personal sleep. I was plugged in, with WiFi always on. Now, my (third!) cable is dying and only registers USB charging (which is new) but I've never gotten deep sleep when there's a WiFi AP in range before, even unplugged!

Is this real progress, or is there something else going on? I flashed while settling in to bed, and put it down while the apps were "optimizing", so it may be that some non-automatic app takes a wakelock, but this is promising!

Apps that wake up and use WiFi (k-9, beyondpod) clearly did so while I was sleeping, so it appears to be operation as we would like it to be!
[Nook Color Android Development] friedsonjm:
Well noted, but this also implies that some of them DO do something useful - or at least have an impact. Which ones, and what do they do? Would it be worthwhile to have a community zip with them, only, in it?
[Nook Color Android Development] numus:
Some of them may not, but changing wifi.supplicant_scan_interval from 30 seconds to 180 does... Also there is a mistype in the buildprop (a space between the = on both sides of that entry)...

I have also seen much faster ui response when I used debug.sf.hw=1
[Nook Color Android Development] tnpapadakos:
i second that, i certainly dont care to have junk code in my rom...if there was a consensus of which changes actually do anything beneficial, i would limit the update zip to those...
[Nook Color Android Development] KingJL:
I don't think that the space on each side of the = matters (which does not surprise me when you understand how most syntax analyzers work). If you run "getprops" and look at the listing, you will see that it is set to the value specified in build.prop (if you do not have a local.prop). I have changed the values in build.prop, leaving the spaces in and guess what... the value listed by getprop reflects that it is set correctly.

Does anyone have a clue as to why GooManager does not reflect the same list of nightlies as what is presented on "http://techerrata.com/browse/nightly_kangs/encore"? I just noticed that GooManager does not acknowledge that build(s) 13/9 OpenGL and 3/10 OpenGL builds are available.

You may need to reflash gapps after updating to 3/10 or newer. It's a known issue due to some changes to the scripts in CM. See the OP for link to latest gapps.
[Nook Color Android Development] eyeballer:
Re: the build.prop tweaks, my feeling is most (if not all?) of them don't do anything. They either don't apply in ICS or don't apply to our device.. eg proximity sensor, hw button lights and encoding jpgs from our non-existent camera. A lot of them were just copied over from 2.2/2.3 by people who don't understand what they're actually doing.

The wifi scan interval only really saves battery if you leave wifi on when you're not around a wifi signal - which will waste more battery anyway, might as well turn wifi off. If you are around wifi it's just going to increase the time for you to connect to the signal from 30s to 180s which seems like a pain to me.

Either way, if someone wants to maintain these it's up to them, please start your own thread to do so, it just muddles up feedback on clean installs.

Edit: Also, I don't understand why people keep flashing the bootanimation to /system. Just put the bootanimation.zip in /data/local and it will stick every time you flash a nightly and will only be wiped if you wipe /data. Much simpler than flashing a zip each time.
