Nope, AOKP and CM both are based on AOSP but AOKP is NOT based on CM (and vice-a-versa). AOKP will cherry pick features to include in AOKP but they are are not based on each other.

If i use the TWRP sd card image to flash this, does it get flashed on EMMC or SD-card? is there a way to flash this on SD-card for a dual-boot Stock (emmc) & sdcard (AOKP)? i am sorry i have been out of the loop for a while. i remember using the leapinar/verygreen sd-card setup for CM7. do i need that for an sd-card only setup or can i start with the twrp sd-card image?

edit: saw someone posted steps to use with the verygreen installer so i am going with that.
[Nook Color Android Development] RASTAVIPER:
You can perform the installation that you want by following this topic with Racks Dual boot rom. Then you can install whichever Rom you want by using this script.
[Nook Color Android Development] deshwasi:
thanks. i already did the install using verygreen image. now, what gov/cpu settings are best to use if i dont care for battery life (using at home)? at the default the response is a bit jerky.
[Nook Color Android Development] davidr415:
I found that setting the min cpu at 600, max at 1100 and using ondemand for the governor worked pretty well.. Leaving min at 300 left quite a bit of the hesitation..

I am hoping you hear from someone else with an even better solution, as I haven't been able to get it completly smooth.
[Nook Color Android Development] anonim1:
FWIW, I've had my max set at 1200 with no stability issues, but YMMV.

Any tips for bet memory management?

After boot I start with 140mb and after opening tapatalk and gtalk I have like 54mb left.

With task manager I see the kaiten email that always runs in background and some other things.

I use the memory Manager of Rom Toolbox but 54mb free is not good for everyday use.

Any ideas?

GPS Problem

Hi, I try to use maps and gives me a message Please enable a My Location source in systems settings.

Anybody with the same error?

Thanks

That's quite normal. Android likes to keep memory about 70-80 % full so that when it needs a task you were using before its faster to reactivate it than to load from scratch. YHou can kill things, but the OS will load them again anyway. If you fight that with 3rd party mem / task managers, it will degrade performance.
[Nook Color Android Development] riceboyler:
AOKP is not CM9. So if you're posting from your NookColor on CM9, then you're probably not actually running this ROM. :)

This is NOT a CM9 ROM, it's an AOKP ROM.
[Nook Color Android Development] djjeesh:
Can someone help me with clarifying the install process? The original post says to instal AOKP and GAPPS and then install the latests AOKP for Nook Color. Is that second step of flashing just for updating or do I need to hunt down some generic AOKP rom to install first and then the Nook Color AOKP? Thanks.

At this point, given where future support is going (in no way a bad thing), perhaps it is best to close this thread with a note about whats going on? Your choice sir (your thread after all. :) )
[Nook Color Android Development] surfboy:
Nope, I hadnt noticed, and the main post had not been modified to say this. Its a shame because this looks and works way better than the current CM9.

BTW, thanks to freeonchill for the instructions on getting this to work on an SD Card. It really couldnt be much easier, here's what I did:

1. Download the verygreen generic SD Card image

2. Unzip the img and load the image onto it (i used win32diskimage). Size of the SD card is irrelevant.

3. Remove and re-insert the card into the PC

4. Download and rename the aokp zip to update-cm*.zip (i used update-cm1.zip)

5. Download the gapps zip and rename to gapps-gb.zip (Not sure if verygreen has still hardcoded the 'gb' into the filename - is this still necessary?)

6. Copy both zip files to the SD Card (its labelled 'boot')

7. Eject, insert into Nook and boot it up.

8. Let the rom and gapps unpack and install and reboot after the install shuts down.

It took about 3 or 4 mins for the first boot up to complete but now its running very smoothly.

Is there anything else I need to do?
[Nook Color Android Development] CamoGeko:
Aww, thats a real shame. :(

This ROM is pretty much the best our Nooks can get, what are we meant to do now...

However, it will be a while before cm10 gets anywhere near decent functionality and stability. Why not support this ROM meanwhile?

You really need to try their JB build. Few more major bugs squashed and it'll be as good as the CM9 build (in my opinion). it already runs much smoother on mine.
[Nook Color Android Development] speedfreak007:
is there a threat where we can find JB builds or do we have to build it by ourself?

Build it yourself. Its not hard. Page 251 of the CM9/CM10 discussion thread has a document put together by fattire on how to modify the normal build instructions to get JB running.

[Nook Color Android Development] freonchill:
ive been following the topic for the cm10/jellybean dev discussion between fattire, keyodi and krylon360

they are still working with getting hw acceleration working in cm10/jellybean and 3.x kernel

those are important aspects that have never been fully done in any 3.x or 4.x android release for the nook

i know that the nook color will never be the android nexus 7; but i know tons of ppl will be super excited if they can use netflix on it.

i would be happy to load a youtube video - regardless of where it is and just have it work without getting a slideshow. there isnt anything i cant stand worse is to go to see a video on a website that has their own flash player and either it doesnt work at all or you get a slideshow. im not sure about the support on other devices (especially newer devices that make the nook truly look like what it is, an ebook reader), but as adobe is dropping flash on android devices; and as flash never existed on iDevices - i wonder how long it will take everyone to move forward and change all webpage video over from flash to html5, so that all devices and view all of the web again. we are in a flash transitional period, and its going to be rocky for a while... especially for users who either cant upgrade their devices to watch video on something other than flash or who dont know how to take the proper steps to use other software to view the entire web, rather than a limited mobile web.

i used cm7.x on my nook when i got it last year

i started playing with cm9 but never had any real stability, as it would hard-lock within 5-10 minutes of doing anything after a reboot

so i saw krylon360's aokp build that was similar to cm9 and thought it couldnt be any worse... so i tried it and was able to use my nook with ICS for more than 5-10 minutes.

i am happy that krylon360 is working with fattire and keyodi on cm10/jb as i think that butter would make the nook feel more responsive

and even more happy if they are able to crack the hw acceleration and make the nook an excellent media device.

props to krylon360, fattire and keyodi for taking the time to get current software (jb) working on our older hardware. if it wouldnt be for them, the nook would become stagnant.

I agree, HUGE THANKS, to all the coders out there.

My question is what will happen soon with Netflix since Adobe is abandoning Flash for Mobile (Android)? Netflix should get off it's buns and release an app without Flash. It's not like they are busy adding streaming content.

Homer
[Nook Color Android Development] kitjarik:
Hi guys,

The ROM is just amazing, best I ever got for my NC. The only issue that drives me crazy — sometimes (every couple of days) NC gets in a boot loop — starts booting, shows the lockscreen and in few seconds after "preparing SD card" notification is gone, it reboots. It's usually enough to leave it turned off overnight — in the morning it starts just fine.

Sometimes the boot loop just stops on some boot and it works just fine.

Have you got any suggestions on that?
[Nook Color Android Development] biohazrd51:
Does the Netflix application use flash? I know they gave it up on desktop in favor of Silverlight.

If it does, does it matter? It's not like you require flash installed seperately just for Netflix to work. Even if it did use it, they would implement it within the application beyond Adobe supporting the platform.
[Nook Color Android Development] Homer_S_xda:
It's been so long since I ran CM7 I can't quite remember, but I was fairly certain you had to have Flash installed and working for the Netflix client to run under Android. Looks like they, Netflix that is, have already addressed this. You can search on XDA for the latest 4.1 systems that have it. I guess you just have to have hardware acceleration now.

Homer
[Nook Color Android Development] djjeesh:
Seems to have done the trick. Knock on wood. I still haven't used TWRP to install this rom. Don't know why that's in the instruction of OP.

Did you try wiping fully and re-flashing the rom?

An alternative...

...to your proposed setup would be to turn on Bluetooth and use a BT keyboard and BT mouse. I was shocked when I tried it on my wife's NC, and it worked just fine up to 2-3 feet away (even with the lack of proper BT antenna). Installed this AOKP build on my daughters NC tonight because she saw it, ordered these for hers:

http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B008I5PK22

http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B003YFIX3Y

I was wondering about USB OTG as well, but this will do what she wants (Android tab w/ KB+mouse) in a stylish and compact form factor. The Nex7 is almost identical in size to NC, but like 7mm narrower, 7mm shorter, and 1-2mm thinner. I suspect that the NC will fit into this case, as it is leather and appears to have enough "slack" / "stretch" to accommodate the tiny bit of extra bulk. Will post back here when we get these items to let you know how it works out.

If anyone tries USB OTG, I'd be curious as to the setup as well... :cool:

I downloaded this around 10pm on Thursday night, not sure what version it downloaded (not at home now) but it seems like it locks up frequently when click the app drawer button in the top right.

[Nook Color Android Development] riceboyler:
You can adjust the settings in the Rom Control Menu to take care of the shrinking buttons. I believe (though could be wrong) that it's an issue across all of the AOKP builds.

I'm very impressed by being able to use ICS on my Nook Color with this ROM. I am getting frequent lockups, however, I'm not really able to see a pattern in it, asides from using the device for a lengthy amount of time, eventually it will always freeze up a couple times a day and force me to restart.

Also, Google Drive docs seem to be incredibly sluggish in typing, even when I set up the document in offline mode and the CPU settings at 1200mhz - 1100.

Any ideas what to do with these?
[Nook Color Android Development] RASTAVIPER:
Is it running from EMMC or SD?

Did you make full wipe before installation?

Not sure if I fully understand what you mean about sd and the emmc. Can you elaborate?
[Nook Color Android Development] CamoGeko:

[Nook Color Android Development] Cunorix:
Just to letting you know, I got it working with CM9 off of an SD Card. Then suddenly it stopped working which at the time I was clueless as to why. I ended up flashing this ROM to my EMMC and going out to buy another USB HUB. I ended up figuring out that the previous HUB and the new HUB both weren't working from the surge protector I was using. Stupidly, it took me a few days to realize it wasn't receiving enough power and I plugged it up straight to the wall.

Next, I found that with this ROM specifically (CM 9 previously just had you plugged up, and you were good to go) needed to use Nook Tweaks (which I used with cm 7) to enable USB Host Mode, THEN you would turn on the USB Mouse/Keyboard and the tablet should recognize both the mouse and keyboard. I've done this on and off for about a week now, with no problems.

Hope that helps!

Thanks for the effort, Krylon. It worked great on my NC. some little quirks I thought of sharing with you.

When I open some apps, the navigation bar icons - back,home and opened-windows become so tiny instantly. Eg - Waze app or dolphin browser etc..

Appreciate if some one can share their experience on getting this resolved.

One more observation- the bootloader screen displays some fictitious text at the top left corner saying E 0 . Not sure what that meant.

Changing the status bar font to 24 dp didn't work for me too.
[Nook Color Android Development] krylon360:
The small icons was an odd bug. I think the fix was adding 4 icons to the navigation bar?

The E0 is fine. That's telling the boot loader it has had 0 errors in loading.

I pushed the source for this base to my github. Its the one I used for Build40v6. Feel free to grab it and diff it with M6 and run with it.
