Eos27 + 7/13 eos gapps. I'm still not getting my Google backup account recognized in the ROM. I have to manually select all my apps to get them to install. I could try some of the suggestions in the forum for restoring my apps, but I'm spoiled from the usual method of flashing ROM and gapps, then letting the phone automatically reinstall my apps.

I always just use Titanium Backup. Last few times I've used Tb it stops on restore, but I just reboot and start again and it finishes..

I just flashed update 27 and gapps 13 right over 26 only thing i wiped was dalvik every thing seems to be working fine so far not to sure what was changed in 27 seems the same. I was also able to get prl write to work as the people above said you need to use the widget using the program will result in FC. I cant wait for sprint updates menu to show back up then we will be 100% complete also id use stock kernel instead of lean i have seen people having issues with deep sleep on lean kernel.

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] chugger93:
lol..we'll I took it off the charger yesterday at 6pm EST. I used it slightly when I got home and a little later that night, but nothing major like gaming. Then it was sleep time. Woke up checked a few txt messages and a website. Used it a little bit at work here. Its now 12pm WITH 65% LEFT, 18hrs later.

So technically, its not real world results as you're right, I havnt been using it that much. We'll, that and I've been keeping 3G off until I need it ;)
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] ajf64:
seems battery usage is much higher then ics i use tune-in pro to stream my podcasts daily and i lost about 6% in 20 mins i used to get about 10 hours out of full battery i want to swap out kernel to lean but all the ones i seen seem to be old what is the best lean kernel or any kernel that will get best battery life out of 4.1.

PS: all my apps are off and i even have auto task killer on i have background processes limited to 1 and it set to kill all apps when i leave them

also seems they added restart menu to power menu in update - 27 big thanks i was looking for that
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] jesusice:
We still using task killers?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] ajf64:
I am cuz there are a ton of rouge apps that wont stay closed in JB main one is youtube and gallery they seem to just always pop open same with google search i don't want to use it but im trying to fix battery life i also switched to using hotplug Governor see if that works any better\

PS: all my streaming is over 3G

I'm not having any problems with deep sleep and I'm running lean's latest exp. 230 kernel. I've read of people experiencing problems while on the stock kernel mainly.

ughhhhhhhhhhh don't use a task killer! these aren't rogue apps... closing those and then the system having to open them again is going to use more battery.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] ajf64:
wierd all the issues i seen have been on lean kernel but i want to use it what link did you use to get the 230 version of lean

idk never had the issue with the apps starting up like that in ics i dont want them running unless im using it i need to save as much battery life as i can

Subject: Re: [android-building] State of AOSP on Galaxy Nexus

To: android-building@googlegroups.com

There's a power management issue that only occurs on AOSP builds but

not on yakju/takju/mysid. From the logs, I assume that one of the

missing proprietary binaries causes a chip to trigger spurious

interrupts, which prevents the CPU from going to deep sleep, and that

shortens the battery life. In my tests, this seems more severe on toro

than on maguro. It's being investigated by kernel engineers.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Saturn2K:
You're probably worse off having an app police other apps when the Android system does the job itself too. A lot of reviews of task killers show they don't save battery life, and may even make it worse. If you want real savings, try using something like Juice Defender. It regulates your data connection, one of the biggest constant draws of battery life.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] ajf64:
is 4.1 better then 4.0 i seen on there thread they have a version 4.1 kernel

how is it on battery
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] JohnCorleone:
That's what I have been doing lately. I go into mounts and format system. Then I flash ROM and gapps and let it boot. The one thing it won't do is provision your phone on first boot if you don't do a clean install. Maybe if you format system and wipe cache and dalvik it will but I haven't tried that. You know, there's an app called App2zip that backs up all of your apps and makes it into a flashable zip. You can clean install a ROM and boot then go back and flash your apps zip. I occasionally use it. Also, if you have ROM Toolbox Pro, if you back up all user apps in App Manager , it adds an App Manager/ App Backups folder that has those apps in it. When you install the apps from there it takes you straight to install screen for each app. That's what I use for clean installs

+1 On juice defender (delivers optimal battery life) vs task killer. I use both (es task killer) for cleaning cache. Juice defender ultimate ($4.99) (give you more aggressive settings) for supervision of data/gps connection which I personally found to increase tremendously. My theory + fact.

+1 I do believe flashing the eos rom formats system folder for you.

+1 For people having the issue where apps aren't automatically downloading after initially signing into Google after a fresh flash. Just try using normal JB Gapps zip and what happens. (trial & error) is always the name of the game.

He has been properly smashed by us. He got his punishment for that foolish post. Everyone gets a second chance though. Hopefully he does better with his next post. I have only made a ROM for the Epic Touch and it wasn't even a source build. A lot of time and trial and error goes into this and for someone to come on and bash your work for no reason isn't cool in my book. I mean, even one thing out of place or a mistype in a line of code and the ROM won't boot. Some people think this stuff is as easy as tying your shoes which it certainly is not.

Don't know it this is a setting somewhere or what, but I have a question on using the Kindle app on the Nook Color running cmod 7 (7.20 stable). The app runs okay, but I seem to be missing a navigation bar once I start reading a book. It only shows the title and where I am - no options to go back to the Kindle menu (like if I want to read a different book). The only way I can get back to the Kindle menu is to reboot.

I've searched the forum and the closest thread to this problem talks about changing the settings - I don't seem to have any settings to adjust. Even if I go to settings/applications/manage applications/downloaded/kindle there still aren't any changable options.

Sorry for so many questions - I'm a noob. I've searched the net on this and searched this forum with no luck.

any help is greatly appreciated!

Thanks in advance!

[Nook Color General] leapinlar:
What version of the Kindle app are you using? Try updating to the latest version.

Also try playing with the settings in cm. Go to settings, cyanogenmod settings, tablet tweaks, and play with checking and unchecking disable full screen.
[Nook Color General] dweaton:
uh.....I'm not sure

Thanks for the reply! I downloaded the Kindle app via Amazon, so hopefully it is whatever is their latest. I sure didn't know about the settings, so I'll give the go and see what happens! I do get the drop down from the top stating the title, and the pull-up from the bottom, but the bottom only has how much I've read so far.

Thanks again!

Dave :)

EDIT: Well, I don't have the tablet options. Everything in there is for a phone! Seems kind of weird on a device that doesn't have a phone.
[Nook Color General] dweaton:
lost cm settings

I tried the cyanogenmod settings, and while everything there was for a phone, I turned off things like vibrate, etc. - pretty much everything dealing with a phone. Now when I try to go back to cyanogenmod settings, the app aborts.

I also look in the dev settings and see a config file in there that set s default resolutions, etc., and includes an option that looks like it hides the menu bar, so I used terminal (I am familiar with Linux) and checked for such a file for the system but wasn't able to locate one. I'm wondering if there's a setting like that somewhere, as I don't get any back arrows, menu, etc., just on the pages, and was wondering if that was also stopping me from getting the full menu bar in the Kindle app?
[Nook Color General] jabbathewocket:
So you do NOT see the word Kindle in orange Aa, magnifying glass and three vertical dots and a bookmark icon as well as the blue dot and position in book at the bottom of screen when you touch anywhere that is NOT the far left and far right of the screen?

And you do NOT see the back, home, recent apps and "menu" button in the bar at the bottom of the screen outside of the kindle window?

Dev settings? no such beast in CM7 or CM9

There is a Developer options which has nothing to do with any sort of resolutions..

I suggest you reinstall CM7.2 release from the official site, stay out of ADB, and stay away from all the various "work in progress" roms until you can actually navigate the default device...

I think you probably got a bit happy and broke something .. there is a setting in CM7 settings to disable fullscreen apps from hiding the "menubar" at the far bottom of the screen and that should be under tablet tweaks in the system settings app.
[Nook Color General] dweaton:
Yep, none of those

Yep - none of those. This was just after getting 7.0 stable installed and loading in the gapps, since the gapps file was dated just slightly after that release. Immediately went and got Kindle and Nook reader apps. Tried them to be sure they looked like they were working and then applied the zip of 7.2 stable. I didn't try the cyanogenmod settings until later when it was posted in this thread. Again, there are no options in there for a tablet - only a phone. I don't mind going back and doing everything over, just as long as I don't end up in that deadly embrace of things aborting and google market not working. I'll let you know what happens.

If I flush out the Kindle cache I can get back to seeing my titles, but that really defeats the purpose of reading on the device.
[Nook Color General] dweaton:
Something is not right

Okay, I downloaded everything again and made the microSD. I booted the microSD, did the format data/system reset, went to mounts and did the format /system, while there I tried the format /data - it fails. I had noticed before that when the data/system reset is run and completes, I can no longer do anything - I have to manually power off, wait a while, and power back on. Did all that, went to advance and cleared the kelvich or whatever it's call cash. Installed the cmod7.20 stable. Took out the microSD and rebooted. All of my old apps, etc., are still there. I also was looking at settings and see that the settings I changed were under "phone", not using the cyanomod settings app - it still just aborts.

So, what have I got to do to completely clean all this stuff off and then try installing again? As you can imagine, the number of attempts, partial successes, successes (at least I thought it was only the Kindle app that wasn't showing the menu), etc., we're talking all kinds of hours starting Monday night - probably at least 10 hours each day. Now I'm no further than when I started. For now I'm going to load the old 1.4.1 image again for the umpteenth time and hope someone can tell me how to clear this all up, or else recommend a different android that will run on the Nook Color without problems.

I still think if I can clear EVERYTHING (well, not /boot, obviously) so I'm starting with a CLEAN slate again it may help. I just don't have a clue how to do that using cwm recovery.
[Nook Color General] dweaton:
Still no good

I redownloaded everything again, created the microsd and tried to install 1.4.1 just to get back to a clean starting point. Can't get beyond where it asks for B&N userid/password as the keyboard shows for about 1/2 a second, no matter what I do. So, I tried the format data/system reset again and just loaded in the cmod 7.20 stable. Again, after booting, everything is still there - the google apps and all. How do I get rid of all this stuff so I can try an install from a clean slate? Right now I've been going thru all the data folders I can find and manually removing everything there. I would like to delete a lot of apps, but I never seem to be able to "uninstall".

So, before I start over again, can someone tell me how to clear EVERYTHING (except /boot, /emmc [unless I need to],/sd*) so I have a clean system first?

Thanks!

Dave :confused:
[Nook Color General] leapinlar:
Boot to CWM and do a factory reset. If you don't have CWM on emmc, make a bootable CWM SD. You can get one on my tips thread linked in my signature. A factory reset clears /data, /cache and clears any apps you may have installed to SD. It does not touch boot, system or emmc media.
[Nook Color General] dweaton:
no good

That's what I've been doing - format data/factory reset option from cwm. Before rebuilding the entire microSD on my Windows PC I have also done a complete format of the media. I then boot CWM from the microSD and install the cmod7 7.20 stable zip - I always assumed this was going straight to the device since when I remove the microSD and boot cmod7 is there. However, none of the pre-existing apps are gone - everything is still there.

I've tried using CWM, advanced options, and format /data - it always fails. So I'm wondering if perhaps the format of /data the is part of the factory reset also fails but the script doesn't error out. Right now I'm going through an extremely time consuming task of manually removing the files and folders in /data via the terminal and su so I get the permissions. If there is another quicker way to clear /data I'd sure appreciate knowing. I've tried some of the treed removes from my Linux experience but they don't seem to work.

Thanks!

Dave :confused:

EDIT: forgot to mention - I'm trying your partition restores from the link in your signature - only the "safe" ones - I don't to do that partition 2 stuff and really mess up. Perhaps this will clean everything off.
[Nook Color General] dweaton:
Thank you thank you thank you!!!!!

I followed the link and did the repartitioning and formating with the first 2 scripts (left partition 2 alone!). Installed 7.20 stable - I now have the bar at the bottom of my screens. I'm waiting to format a 16gb microSD then I'm going to try the Kindle app out again, but I'd say this looks REALLY promising! Your scripts did what I wanted to do - they cleared everything out!

Thank you SO much!!!!!

Dave :D
[Nook Color General] dweaton:
Thank to everyone!

I just wanted to post a big THANK YOU to all the people who made cwm and cmod 7 so this whole thing would even be possible. Thanks to everyone here who helped me! Now "all" I have to do is just try to learn this! Maybe some place down the road I might try some programming, but I don't know how different it will be from my C using GTK++ on Linux. But first, to learn!

Thank you everyone SO much!

Dave :D
[Nook Color General] leapinlar:
I know you got it all working and I am glad, but just for future reference, the problem you were having probably stemmed from using an old version of CWM. You have to use version 3.2.0.1 or newer or the format of data will fail on the newer nooks. The one in my tips thread is the newest version.
[Nook Color General] dweaton:
Thanks!

I did look at the the tar file I downloaded when I was trying to install from a 4gb microSD - it does say only 3.0.2.8, so I'm sure the 16gb I ended up installing from was probably the same, so I'll go grab what you recommended!

Since I don't want to have the problem again, I'm DEFINITELY going to follow your advise!

I had another suspicion for what may have happened, and why I had so much problem from the get-go with cmod 7 - I tried someone else's "put android on your nook" thing, which I know tried to root the nook and then dump some stuff in, and that didn't end up working.

I'm just glad your posts have gotten me going correctly!! BTW - the Kindle app works fine now, too!

Again, thank you SO much!!

Dave;)
[Nook Color General] dweaton:
Want to make sure I get this all right

You've been such a great help - I hope you don't mind a couple of more questions:

- The new CWM you recommend is the 5.x.x.x that's on the link, correct?

- Are there any newer releases of Android for the Nook Color? Right now I don't know anything about Android (complete noob [LOVE the movie on the registration page!] ). I know someone who is quite versed in all of this he mentioned that I'm running some name (honeycomb or something like that) and that there are newer ones out there (maybe that was honeycomb). At any rate, are there some updates I could run to make this any "better"? I know the version I'm running also seems to think it's a phone - is there one where it actually thinks it's a tablet?

Again, thank you SO much!

Dave :good:
[Nook Color General] leapinlar:
Yes that CWM is attached to my tips thread linked in my signature.

You can try CM9 which is tablet based, but it is still in alpha and not as stable as CM7. Don't use honeycomb, it is old and very buggy.
[Nook Color General] dweaton:
Thanks!

Thanks again for the info! I'll get that copy of cwm right away. Since CM9 is still early, I'll wait on any updates. I really don't know anything yet, but I am having fun with the Nook Color being all Android now. It's nice having the Kindle app and the Nook app - this way have all my books on 1 device, and that works great!

Thanks again!
