Dear Friends,

Iam a noob who for the first time shifted from apple to HTC android Flyer 3g 32gb...

my HTC is upgraded to android version 3.2.1... and its wifi is not working to full strength.. i have wifi modem installed in my room as soon as i leave range of 20 to 30 meters the wifi gets disconnected and its draining the battery to its max giving an backup of 3 to 4 max. and due to the new firmware 3 home screen icons on the black panel of the device have also disappeared. NOW i kindly respect and request all my experienced friends here to please guide me to help me restore this device to its origional android version... HOPE FOR YOUR COOPERATION :) :) :)

Thanking You..

How should I install abd and fastboot from your thread . as I click on the application a dos window appears and closes , nothing happens. also tell me from where should i check my gingerbread ruu ? i have android 3.2.1 installed in my htc flyer. thats all i know
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] mcord11758:
your looking for a crash course in allot.

ADB and fstboot are not applications. They contain commands that you can use through a comand terminal. Take the files (adb and fastboot) and place them in a folder named adb. Then place that directly on your c drive. now click start on windows then run. type cmd then hit enter. a black terminal should open type

cd \adb

then enter should change to your adb folder. connect your flyer through usb. type in the command prompt

adb devices

then hit enter. should list your flyer

If you can do this you can move forward. If not, no luck

My htc flyer is currently showing an android version 3.2.2 and software number is showing 3.55.405.1 . What I want to ask is that which ruu should I download from the link you gave me if I want to downgrade my htc flyer to 2.3.3 gingerbread . and also the link you gave is not making any downloads because the slots are not empty . is there any other site from where i can download ruu manually for downgrading to 2.3.3 gingerbread ? what should I type in google ? plus i keep getting 2.3.3 for htc desire etc but not htc flyer , can i use the same htc desire 2.3.3 ruu to downgrade my htc flyer ?

thanks

I tried to help you, I did not write what I did because it was an exercise in futility. If you want to know which RUU is you

1.Boot the phone to fastboot mode

2.Run the following command:

Code:

fastboot getvar cid

This will return the CID of your device. Find the appropriate RUU from this list:

[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] Demetris:
Hi,

Anyone tested this already?
[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] succulent:
They don't work.

Nook Tablet uses acclaim board, which is a modified encore board.

GPIO 46 on acclaim is for touchscreen reset

GPIO 49 is for board type

This is the wireless module in the back of the Nook Tablet board,

*Image from iFixit, http://guide-images.ifixit.net/igi/BWtQHPQKynJJROds

The 6792A is an 802.11b/g/n and Bluetooth front-end module,

http://www.mouser.com/catalog/specsheets/tqm679002a.pdf

The chip is also inside in Kindle Fire and Nook Color.

However, the blackened chip is unknown on the Nook Tablet. It is also blackened on the Nook Color, but we know that it is WL1271, which support Bluetooth. In the Kindle Fire, it's WL1270B, which support only 802.11b/g/n. If we know what the chip is, we can confirm that Nook Tablet support Bluetooth.

I wish there was a way us non-developers to help. Most of us who browse the forums can do basic adb commands. Any chance someone can give us anything we can pitch in with, maybe some repetitive work that developers could hand off to us?

I hope I'm not being demanding - it'd just be great if we can help offset some of the work that you hardcore folks are doing.

I agree with Computerslayer! Most developers tend to ask for "donations" and I tend to frown against that since theres no effort envolved. Like us ordinary 99%, who strongly support a device should give in time to a development project in some sort of way, PLEASE LET US KNOW!

You want to help? It’s not easy. It involved many steps.

Learn to compile a kernel. Look at my thread on CIFS. The second post detailed how to compile a kernel. You need the .config file in my CM7 source.

You need to edit board-acclaim-peripherals.c, located in kernel/android-2.6.35/arch/arm/mach-omap2, appropriately. Change the .nshutdown_gpio value and compile the kernel.

You need to modify your ramdisk to allow Bluetooth then pack your boot.img. Flash the boot.img and test for Bluetooth and repeat with different .nshutdown_gpio value. It’s brute force and it’s time consuming. All this without knowing if the Nook Tablet support Bluetooth is kind of stupid.

[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] Know-Fear:
Seriously? Am I reading this correctly here? You frown on a developer asking for "donations" because they didn't really put any effort into their work? Are you freakin out of your mind? Some devs have spent weeks, months and years into making android what it is now! Hell a ton of stuff included in stock roms now were put there by google after they got the ideas and even code from the development community.

Please tell me I just read that wrong and you really meant something totally different. Otherwise, please, by all means, go build a project of your own. Then come back and let us know how long it took you and how much effort it took.

I am guessing that you would probably come back with questions on how to set up your development environment.

Sorry if this is sort of silly seeing that you want us dive right in cuz were non-devs (for now) but what's a VM?

Also as a 15 year old high schooler I'm ecstatic that i might be able to get into this stuff! Provided I can scale the steep initial learning curve.

I might need some help :P

EDIT: found out what a VM is. Now i just need to know what's the best/easiest to use/cheapest one available and HOW the hell I'm supposed to install ubuntu on it......

Sent from my CyanogenMod 7 Alpha Final Nook Tablet
[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] Danrarbc:
VirtualBox is free. Pretty cheap. To install is pretty simple, you create a new VM inside of VirtualBox and select the OS you are installing. And you can mount the Ubuntu ISO you downloaded as the CD/DVD drive and when you start the VM that will load, no need to burn a CD.

Another option is Wubi, which will install Ubuntu to a file inside the Windows file system very easily, it will also run faster than a VM since it's a real install. Once installed you can choose between Ubuntu and Windows on boot. I'd actually recommend this unless you really want to run both Linux and Windows at the same time.
[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] SilentStormer:
What one would you suggest for a beginner to all of this stuff.

Sent from my CyanogenMod 7 Alpha Final Nook Tablet
[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] Danrarbc:
I'd say use Wubi to install it, because despite the fact that you aren't running it inside Windows in a window it's easier to install and has more benefits for the Linux install itself. You'll have Firefox installed by default inside Ubuntu anyway so you can still come right in here for guidance, and read any howto you want online without any pain.

And the big deal is once you start compiling it will run almost as fast as a native Ubuntu install, the disk access is only slightly slower than a normal partition (it's also easier to transition to a native install if you decide to partition your hard drive down the road, if you do a VM you'll most likely rebuild the entire thing if you decide to do so)

[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] fattire:
Chrmhoffman, yeah I guess so, from what I understand (I'm no expert on this). It's good that you mention that. Apparently there IS some risk (?) and maybe someone who knows exactly what that risk is could jump in. Turning on a particular gpio that isn't expecting it can lead to badness, so... be careful out there :) Obviously though anyone playing with any 3rd party firmware, especially w/the kernel, should understand that there is potential risk of bad things happening to hardware and data. The GPL as well as warnings everywhere on this site/forum should make it clear, but yeah, it's good to emphasize it, especially with flipping or testing random gpios... try this at your own risk with full responsibility of the outcome/results.

SilentStormer-- now that you know what a VM is, I'd recommend taking a look at virtualbox...

There is NO Bluetooth hardware in Nook Tablet

We have the same module, WL1270B, as the Kindle Fire.

I took my Nook Tablet apart just to verify if the Nook Tablet have Bluetooth support. Before that, I’ve tried many GPIO values and every time I turned on Bluetooth, the Nook Tablet would just restart. This is the best shot I have of the Nook Tablet wireless module. The text on the module was so small, I could barely read it even at close distant.

WG7310-00 uses WL1271, which has bluetooth.

WG7310-20 uses WL1270, which has no bluetooth

WG7310-30 uses WL1270, which has no bluetooth.

The letter B at the end of WL1270B is just revision letter.
[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] pissinguoff247:
Having bluetooth hardware and having a bluetooth capable chip are two completely different things, are they not?

We may have a "WL1270B" bluetooth "capable" chip, but without actual bluetooth hardware (like a transmitter/receiver, antenna, etc) it's just a wireless chip. Since parts are usually purchased from the lowest bidder, this was probably just the most cost efficient route to go.

I'm not about to tear down my dang NT to look and see if there's actual bluetooth hardware in it, but has anyone actually gone and looked close enough at the wifi "board" or "board area" or whatever's in here to determine if there's actual bluetooth hardware, rather than focusing on the chip?
