[Nook Color Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] shumash:
Leapinlar's post will answer your questions, but here's a few things to watch for that may concern you:

1. It takes a while for the initial install, and you may see a black screen without any indication of activity. Don't panic! If it lasts more than 20 minutes or so, turn the Nook off, pull the sdcard out, and start again. Don't be afraid to redo everything.

2. The first time it successfully boots into Android, you will see the introductory splash screen for what seems an inordinately long time. It's setting up files and processes so just let it run. Once again, if it takes more that 20 minutes or so, there's most likely some problem.

2. The Kingston card may be sloooow, so my comment above is even more possible. Because the Kingston card is so slow, when you finally boot into Android on it, you may think that the system is too slow or error-prone to run on an sdcard. You may get popups during boot up, when you're running programs, or when its just sitting there, saying something to the effect that so and so program has a problem or had a fault or whatever, and asking you to wait or "force close" (FC). This is probably caused by the card. Your Sandisk card will generally not have those problems (I've been running for over a year on an 8gb Sandisk card with no problems and very snappy response).

Thank you

Shumash,

Thank you for the information. I tried my first try at making a card tonight, it appears to be a no go. Left the Nook alone for an hour and 15 minutes with nothing apparently happening. I will reformat the card and try again tomorrow. I want to thank all who have written to help me along. I know what a pain in the kester having to work with absolute beginners can be.

I see you used winimage to burn. Do not use 'write disk' to burn it. Use 'Restore Virtual Disk Image to physical drive' in the same menu. That's why I recommended win32diskimager. It is simpler to use for noobs.

Shumash,

I did use win32diskimager but I apparently did something wrongin the process. I will try again tomorrow it's late and I'm a bit tired.One thing that I will be doing also is trying to learn as much about Android as I can, though it may need to be in a bit simplified format. If anyone can suggest available information this old geezer will appreciate any guides to it.
[Nook Color Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] GrampaBear:
I finally did it!

It took me 6 trys and I'm not sure what I did right this time, but I finally had success. The first 5 trys all I would get on the screen were 3 lines going across the screen about 40% of the way up and nothing else. The last time it booted and took a bit of time probably 12 - 15 minutes working and then shut itself down. I was thinking it was another failure and held the power button down for a few seconds to restart and Bingo! up came the Android window. I messed around a bit and set up the wireless and pulled up the internet. I LIKE IT!!

It is a bit slow and I'm assuming the Sandisk card will fix that when it finally arrives. It didn't freeze up or anything just ran a bit slow. The Lenovo A1 that my grandsons gave me is always locking up.

The only other thing that I have a worry about is the micro sd card reader in the Nook. I did have a pretty hard time getting the card in and out of the reader slot. I've labored with my hands all of my life and I have developed rather thick and calloused fingers and a bit of arthritis doesn't help either. I can not physically fit the tip of my finger into the little open loop area for the SD card reader. I had to use a tweezer from my fly tying kit to insert and remove the card from the Nook. After I get this type of card down pat I'd like to see if there is a way to leave the card in all of the time and be able to boot from the card or the nook reader software.

THANKS AGAIN! I wouldn't have succeeded without all of you gentlemens help.:)

While I was finishing typing this message my 13 year old grandson has been fooling around with the Android on the Nook. He said to tell you, that you all are AWESOME!
[Nook Color Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] shumash:
If you're using windiskimager, getting everything straight can be a bit confusing. Make sure that you're doing the following four steps on your PC, not the Nook!

1. To the right of the box that says "Image File", there is a blue folder picture. Click on it and select the image file. It should be something like "generic-sdcard.img". It's easiest if the image file is in the same directory/folder as the win32diskimager software.

2. To the right of the blue folder looking picture is the selection box for the location where this image will be written. It says "Device" right above it. If it is the wrong drive letter, click on the arrow at the right of the box. Select the letter of the sdcard. Use a file manager or windows explorer to find out which drive letter the sdcard is. Make absolutely sure you know which drive it is!

3. After you have properly selected the image file and the correct drive letter, click "write" and wait for it to complete.

4. After the image has been written, you will have to put the CM7 (Gingerbread) or CM9 (ICS) flashable zip on the sdcard in its root directory (called "/boot" in a file manager or windows explorer). Copy the one you want onto the sdcard.

Once the above is done, remove the sdcard from the PC and put it in your Nook. Boot the Nook up, and it will do everything else automatically.
[Nook Color Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] leapinlar:
It's funny you should mention old hands and micro chips. I have always had a hard time with the chip and that darned slot. Yesterday I was changing the chip and it popped out. I was sitting in my big recliner, you know the kind all old folks have, LOL. Anyway, the chip went down the crack in the chair. I could not find it. I finally turned the chair on it's side and shook it. It came tumbling out. LOL.

So you will be glad to hear there is a way to set up your stock so that you can use the same SDcard. The only complication is your stock must be rooted first. But that is simple to do. But maybe you want wait on that till you are more confident. Once it is rooted you can look at my tips thread, item B3, and I tell you how to set up stock to use the same SD so you don't have to keep changing cards. There is another method of setting it up without rooting first, but it is more complex to do. If you want me to reference that thread, let me know.
[Nook Color Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] GrampaBear:
Leapinlar,

I know what you mean about the old folks and recliner thing. I have a big old style chair with a foot stool that my wife bought me at a garage sale 38 years ago. It was well over 20 years old when she bought it. She re-upholstered it and made it into the most comfortable chair for a large man ever. I'm kinda like Archie Bunker with that chair, it's my chair and you don't sit in it unless I offer it to you.:D

I appreciate all the help you all have given me, this is all new to me and sometimes I get to feeling a bit flumoxed. I'm having a bit of a problem getting the Android gapps program to work at the moment. Think I may be copying it to the wrong spot, but Windows only seems to show me one spot to copy to. I'll get it figured out it'll just take time. It may be a bit before I feel brave enough to root the Nook.

Still waiting for the Sandisk card to arrive. The Kingston card seems to work but is really slow at times.
[Nook Color Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] j8048188:
You're copying it right. As you turn the nook on with the card in the slot, hold down the n key and choose to boot into the SD recovery partition.

Start off by telling what ROM you are using.
[HTC Sensation XL] JeffBernardo:
I think it's convenient for me since I used pattern lock before I've got the ICS update

Now i just simply show my face to my phone and it unlocks automatically with seldom failure

And just draw pattern to unlock when you turned off the light and lying on the bed :D

I really like this function
[Motorola Atrix 2] Daerci:
So I'm wanting to follow the tutorial on this forum to root atrix 2 2.3.6. It says to make sure to have drivers installed then at the bottom of the post it says:

Driver-wise:

Try this if on 32-bit: mediafire .com/?71c12qc4a1svqza

And this for 64-bit:l mediafire.com /?ysphmaz131d3an9

Are those the only drivers I need? And if not where can I find the others?

Sorry for posting here instead of in the actual thread but I'm unable to post in the development threads since I don't have 10 posts yet :( also apologize for the spaces in the links but I can't post links either
[Motorola Atrix 2] lkrasner:
That should be all you need. You can try getting them right from motorola if it will not root, but You should be fine.
[Motorola Atrix 2] Daerci:
Thanks XD
[HTC One S] syntropic:
When I was using CM7, before I set Dolphin as my default browser, it would always nag me with a popup everyone I clicked a link in gmail or here on XDA. The dialog would want to know which browser to use (between stock and dolphin), and to check a box to set the selected browser.

As that was annoying, I had set dolphin as my default and everything was fine.

But now with this new phone and ICS, I am torn between Chrome beta and dolphin. Chrome is far more useable, but the obvious downside is that it has no flash support. So in cases when I click on a link to a YouTube or other .flv video, I want to use Dolphin. However it seems that even if I don't tell Chrome to be my default browser, it decides it is...Dolphin won't do that unless you specifically set it as default.

So my question is... How can I get a choice of browsers to pop up when I click a link?

Thanks!

Settings, App Associations.
[HTC One S] lbrfabio:
You can use Flashify

With this app if you share a page with a flash video or a link, it appears the popup where you can use whatever browser you want

This adds one more step(sharing) but at least it works :-P

anyway if you click on youtube it's far more logical to use the app instead of browser (my opinion)
[HTC One S] syntropic:
That is my point. On my old CM7 ROM, whenever I clicked on any link with a flv file, it gave me an option of the native browser, dolphin, and the YouTube app, which was very convenient. I don't know why this ROM doesn't do this. I have cleared all defaults from browsers, but when I do get a popup to select a browser, there is no "Remember this choice" checkbox, so I assume when you select the browser you want, it automatically becomes the default.

I will try Flashify... But if anyone else can confirm that you cannot specifically select to not choose a default (thereby continually keeping your options open), it would be appreciated.

I also can't change the defaults with these apps. They always use the browser. It's dumb. I can't wait to be able to use AOSP on this phone

Im so tired of seeing so much ics everywhere except here i now have an ice cream headache (applause for my witty wordplay) so anywho..im about to order one of these tablets here http://android-sale.com/eken-a90-android-tablet-16gb.html

I dont feel like paying over 200$ so after my research,this is so far my best bet.comes with ics.theres already support for root and clockworkmod but virtually no custom roms yet..so if i get quiet on here soon youll know what i am up to :-)

I posted this to merely get some opinions on this tablet,if anyone has used,owned,or knows someone who has one let me hear some feedback (i trust you guys more than those generic ratings i see on the websites that sell them) also if anyone knows of a better tablet i should get for same price range.i am all ears.

Thanks. - ryan
[Motorola Atrix 2] lkrasner:
I've never owned a tablet, but that seems like pretty good specs for being so cheap. great price. I don't know what the Atrix 2 community is gonna do without you though :(
[Motorola Atrix 2] rdavisct:
thanks for your words,i dont plan on leaving here at all. might take a leap of Absence after scv6 is released soon. after that ill be waiting till the ICS comes to our phones and then goto town on it. theres just not much left that i'd like to do for gingerbread, i mean theres some unique xml work that i would love to be doing but takes time,and now that the babysitter has flaked out for good im left watching the two youngens a lot more than before so my time is limited now.
[Motorola Atrix 2] lkrasner:
True, with a locked bootloader, we are so limited. Kernels can make quite the performance difference. my hope is that as ics nears we can pull it with an unlocked bootloader from cheesecake. I am thinking of trying to make an app to automate the process even more. I sent phydo a PM asking if he would share the source code, so I can take a look at what he's done.

The other problem is we have so few devs for our phone. I'm not all that great myself and basically it is you, Jim, JRW28, and a few others. other phones have a ton of people working on stuff.
[Motorola Atrix 2] rdavisct:
Yeah.as for me i spent 10 hours a day for a month learning how to develop.i was steady making progress untill i lost the babysitter,now im watching my girls kids.now i barely have time to focus and actually make the progress i want to to bring anything innovative to the table .because theres a lot more to know.i still consider myself an amateur dev.
[Motorola Atrix 2] farshad525hou:
@lkrasner Well, technically don't we have an unlocked bootloader, or at least a bypass from kexec? From my understanding we just don't have a kernel to put on it yet.

@rdavisct Does the tablet have a capacitive touch screen or a resistive? I know a friend who bought a tablet that looked really good for the money (two cameras, 1.5Ghz processer, microSD expansion etc.) but he got really pissed of when he got it and discovered it had a resistive touch screen.
[Motorola Atrix 2] lkrasner:
2 pronlems. kexec doesn't work perfectly, and no one but Jim actually knows what the hell they are doing with kernels.
[Motorola Atrix 2] farshad525hou:
Well, hopefully he is almost done compiling his CM7 kernel :)
[Motorola Atrix 2] lkrasner:
if I've learned anything from this forum it is that coming soon means more like a few months than a few days.
[Motorola Atrix 2] farshad525hou:
True, but kernels are immensely complex. I wouldn't mind if he takes a couple months if the product is stable and bug free, rather than him forcing it out early with tons of bugs.
[Motorola Atrix 2] rdavisct:
@krasner ..youre learning! ;-D

@farshad ..yes its 5 point capacitive,1.5ghz single core,1gm ram,16gb internal storage with sd expansio upto 32gn. Hdmi out and loaded with ics. And. 9.5 inch screen.One HELL of a nice package IMO.

Ive been searching for days.only thing close to these specs is the novo 7 elf 2 and novo 7 aurora ..but those both only come with 8gb internal storage,1.2ghz,and 7 inch screen. So i think i found the winner by far.

I know you said you don't feel like paying over 200, but you can get a used xoom off of ebay for very close to 200.

I have a xoom, the one with a 3g/4g radio, and I have hacked it and flashed it to work with an AT&T radio. I have been running ICS on mine for some time now, and I LOVE this thing! When I bought it in March last year, I liked it so, that is why I got the Atrix2.

The Xoom is just that bad assed, if you can spend just a small amount more you can get a used one. I just checked ebay and saw a bunch in about the 200ish range, that lowest was 211, but I am sure if you pay some attention you can snag one for a great price.

The only thing I did not try is the headphones because I don't have headphones. That being said, I think I may send my phone to LG to get fixed, so:
