I have read a lot of threads but did not found situation that similar to mine.

The history of problem:

- I received NT 16Gb with 1.4.0 stock ROM and rooted it by using this post [Full Mod + Root + OTA block] Snowball-mod: Full Modification Root [1/6/2012]. It worked fine for me.

- After one month suddenly OTA comes with 1.4.2 stock ROM.

- I have re-rooted device with How to root 1.4.1 (or any other version) using just an sdcard {easy} thread.

Device in generally working but all apps I have installed or upgraded are gone after switch off of NT. Also NT "forget" GPlay password.

I tried to upgrade ROM to CM7 from CWM on SD - installation complete successfully but after switching on still previous ROM appears.

Also I tried to unbrick/recovery to stock ROM by most popular methods described at Development thread but received same result - no errors and no progress.

Does anybody can suggest what should I do now?
[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] old_fart:
Are you sure you got root ? There is a free app which will check it and verify it. . . And what did you use to go to cm7 ?
[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] ogolovko:
I have successfully installed AdFree and some other apps that works only on rooted devices. But maybe after OTA upgrade to 1.4.2 and re-root some root functions are broken...

What app do you recommend to check if NT is rooted properly?

To upgrade to CM7 I have used this method: [ROM] CM7 8GB Compatible Beta for the Nook Tablet, Updated 7th July to Beta

Arrgghh. I'm an "old" man and get easily confused. That link says its for internal install. I thought you had ( wished for ) cm7 on an external Sd Card ?
[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] ogolovko:
I'll check Apps you recommended this evening.

I'd like to install cm7 internally but my problem is that I can't install (or repair) any ROMs. It seems like all partitions on my NT are "read-only".

Yesterday I tried to install ROM by using Restore function of CWM. Proccess finished without any errors, NT rebooted and I seen that nothing changed.

Also any Apps (or updates) installed are gone after swith off/on of NT.
[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] tobdaryl:
If I may. The snowball mod was ahead of its time. It modified build.prop, framework, etc. I didn't find anyone else doing these things in that time frame. If you install Indirects Nook Tab Recovery Flasher and before reboot flash stock recovery you will be able to do eight failed boots to completely return to stock 1.4.0. From there you can do as you wish. There are also flash zips for stock recovery if you prefer.

Note: with the snowball mod I was not able to completely return to stock except with the eight failed boots.

Eight failed boots does normal recovery then reboots into factory recovery(two step process not one as most people use and recommend).

Good Luck

Lars for tobdaryl
[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] ogolovko:
Unfortunately it doesn't work too. I have installed App to flash recovery (CWM {or} Stock) by Indirect. After flashing recovery image and rebooting NT I'v got an error message "Please reboot...". Also I tried to use eight failed boots just after flashing recovery image - it doesn't work.
[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] tobdaryl:
you flashed stock recovery not cwm?
[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] ogolovko:
Yes. I've choosed "Install Stock recovery" button.

I use sd card with flashed CWM.

I think my NT have some problems with internal storage - when I copy a file to /mnt/media NT suddenly reboots.

Can I use something like checkdisk for repairing partitions?

How come you're using RC0?

There's already devices on RC2.
[Streak 5 Android Development] nom051205:
This version is the easiest to port and compatible with our early kernel. I choose a rom to port base of the same cpu and proc. with ds5, but most cm9 rom for those device not mention any version and no nightly builds (maybe that need a lot work to do because unofficial), so I choose this nightly builds by jmztaylor for supersonic which closely to cm9 official build. The bad news is I still facing problem with newer version, the room can boot but no respons on touch screen (I think we need a patch in our kernel as cm team make changes in their kernel and its impact to media libs, video libs, audio libs, surfaceflinger for better responsive and etc). Pls any advice to solve this problem.

Btw, I hv succeed ported latest and final build evervolv ICS rom for nexus one. I think this latest build closely to cm9 RC2 as all evervolv ICS rom build from CM source. But for us it looks like minor changes cause the big improvement is finally native camcorder can record and play.

Sometimes I think better if we can build from the source but at this moment only kibuuka can do that.

I wish he can get ds5 replacement soon and the development can continue.
[Streak 5 Android Development] kibuuka:
(j/k) God hates coward (j/k)

oh COME ON :) there's NO magic at all in building cm9 from source. set your build environment (this guide is quite straight-forward) and tell me when you need to know "what do i do next". Do initial build, test it, get bug list and we'll start to figure solutions for it.

Lemme explain my POV bit more: binary patches are only good when you got no access to source (and even if you don't - there's ALWAYS more than one way to deal with a problem - hunderteins' ussd patch was a magic at the moment - but there was an option noone thought about/tried to - using rild-related stuff from froyo (it works (as it's pretty much framework-independent), yet it's free of ussd bug)).

When source's available - it's ALWAYS a good thing - you control a way it built, you're free to patch it at will adding features/resolving issues/whatever you can imagine to do - instead of desperately seeking for a blob that manages not to fc on your device. One more thing to mention - when you manage to fix thing instead of replacing it - you create/produce, instead of consume/waste :D
[Streak 5 Android Development] nom051205:
Hahahaha.......thanks man for your help, will try it, just do not get annoyed when I keep bug you all the time :D

This all make me feel like I should go back to college again as I hv no any basic about Linux and Ubuntu, only know little things about android hacking this past few weeks by reading and searching from Google.

First things is can I install Ubuntu on my 10 inch netbook running windows xp 32 bit, from I read we should at least hv Ubuntu 11 64 bit to compile kernel. How it running on 2 OS as I still need windows office to work. Other things, what should I do to recompile apk and jar file. I can decompile and baksmaling but always hv problem to recompile it again, sometimes it works but mostly failed.

Edit : Damn !!! only 1GB RAM
[Streak 5 Android Development] ps000000:
Thank you

i will try it
[Streak 5 Android Development] kibuuka:
First - what's most powerful pc you have access to? Plenty of RAM and cpu cores gives you a chance to see finished build within universe's lifetime :) Kiddin, mostly. My build station specs are: i5-760@3333MHz/8Gb/2x1TB. On this specs sucessfull build done with -j4 takes ~2h15m to complete (integrated build - kernel+system). Netbook (Atom cpu?) with 1Gb seem to be inappropriate device to compile ics on.

Second - you don't have to decompile/recompile separate apks and/or jars. You're downloading source, compiling it and getting ROM as a result.
[Streak 5 Android Development] nom051205:
Damn 8 GB RAM, you hv a beast on your side :)

Yes mine only Acer Aspireone intel atom, with this you're not going any where.......hahahahahaha.

If I hv to replace this old one and get the new powerfull device that will need a lot of money....not worth it as I'm not intend to be a great dev, I better buy HTC One X or SGS3 and leave all this ICS headache.......:D

I think it should be you, build from CM source and bring fully working CM9 to our device.

Learning and porting ICS rom for past few weeks makes me hv no time for my 2 kids, should hv family issue if I keep doing this............hahahahahaha

Btw, can you help me, browser and gmail look like normal if not touch the screen, but when I scroll down the screen its force close.

I hv fix the ugly gradient colour on background and that fixed youtube. Pls any advice.

I don't know if it's just me, but this seems a little less laggy than the other ICS ROMs out there. If it wasn't for the non-working data, I'd probably use this even though the battery life hasn't improved.

I tried to use indosat and data connections run very well, the system automatically select the existing apn.

but when I use Telkomsel, on the APN menu there telkomsel apn,

but the system do not automatically select it.

when I check the settings for the apn telkomsel is correct,

but when I try to use it, the data connection is still not working.

i try create new apn for telkomsel, but the data connection is still not working.

i do think it's weird.

Please anyone can explain what related to this file.

Last time I add this file from streakdroid 1.9.1 to cm9 port rom

rild

libril.so

libril-qc-1.so

libreference-ril.so

libril-qcrill-hook-oem.so

libregionctrl.so

com.oem.networksetting.jar (framework)

com.qualcomm.location.vzw_library.jar (framework)

com.qualcomm.location.vzw_library.xml (etc folder\permissions)

networksetting.apk

Preloadnetworksetting.apk

aosdb.bin (Preloadnetworksettings folder)

apns-conf.xml

manually add apn then I can connect to data network, status bar show E (edge) and 3G (umts) and phone testing show data connected but I cannot open any website, no data download at all. Too bad I not take the logcat because my phone hang, and hv to reflash rom. After reflash, it not connect again. Can anyone explain what for that networksetting, preloadnetworksettings and hack apns-conf.xml.

And somebody can explain what wrong from this logcat.
[Streak 5 Android Development] deysmacro:
not sure what happen but the phone reports that sim is not loaded... so something is making false report bout no sim in the phone...
[Streak 5 Android Development] nom051205:
Odd, the phone or gsm in fine service, only data not work, or maybe I take wrong logcat :p
[Streak 5 Android Development] deysmacro:
yeah.. gsm connection usually ok but in this case is the data... if the logcat is correct.. it does say isdataallowed: not allowed ...

so something is making the sim not recognized fully.. though phone recognized it fine... :eek:
[Streak 5 Android Development] TheManii:
None of these are even relevent, they're all due to dell doing apn config their own way on the stock rom.

Your ril issues might be related to not using the ril in AOSP/ICS?

It only doesnt work with certian carrier sims it seems, it works fine for me on at&t.
[Streak 5 Android Development] nom051205:
I found this new libs on hd2 forum, have test it and I feel more better in screen transition.
[Streak 5 Android Development] Crinos512:
Would these libraries work with other ICS roms, such as AOSP?:confused:
[Streak 5 Android Development] nom051205:
Yes, work with all ics roms.
[Streak 5 Android Development] Crinos512:
Sweet!... next question, is it a flashable zip?

...and yes it is. Thanks nom051205!
[Streak 5 Android Development] nom051205:
Yes, it flashable, go try it and see if there any different. Most of present ICS rom use the gpu libs (HD2, Nexus One and Desire)

Hi Adi,

Arey, How are you like getting 30% drop in 7+ hours!?

You are on stock battery right?

If you use stock battery - what battery/task manager / apps control you use ?

How is your data use pattern?

Really Curious!

My battery shows full chare @1.45hrs.

Discharging from 100-99 will take around 20min but from 99-98. Not even a minute and so on continues....

Really worried even this type of discharge. Observed by me in fyro, longhorn 2.9.1,lxdroide02, and now in cm9 also

:mad::mad::mad::mad:

Plz do help me to get out from this issue :confused::confused::confused:

Adi™
[Streak 5 Android Development] deysmacro:
just do battery calibration (its an application you can get at google play)... charge battery to 100% .. see the mv is bout 4205mv ... then hit calibrate... let the battery die out in normal usage (until phone turn off itself)... charge from that continuously until 100% (dont turn on until it hits 100%) ... turn on the phone.. your battery should stabilizes itself after few charge cycle... continuous charge from 0 - 100% without disruption usually helps stabilizes itself too... :)

remember... there are application that can silently drain your battery but it is not reported by android (battery usage)... for example.. google maps...
[Streak 5 Android Development] nom051205:
Still crash when set dpi to 160, I'll try to fix it, and for data, I've tried so many build.prop tweaks, rild, apn-conf still no data.

Btw, for me, RC0 and RC2 not so many difference. The difference is new build more stable (no force close). The performance same like pa rom or aokp rom.

Still facing the classic problem

- use libandroid.runtime from aosp, no theme manager, or have to mod the .so file (I don't think anyone will do that because that is a compiled file)

- use libandroid.runtime from cm9, theme manager work but wifi not work. Been told that the problem is in libhardware_legacy.so, but when I replace it with aosp then the phone won't boot up. Have to mod the lib with hex editor. I see some dev can do that but no one want to share the trick.:p

Any idea how to fix it? Or can we make a patch to push the wifi work?
[Streak 5 Android Development] nom051205:
I think that is good lost 30% in 7 hours, I will very gratefull if my phone can stand more than 12 hours with stock battery.:D
[Streak 5 Android Development] Edrill:
Yeah, apart from data not working, battery life is the biggest issue with the current ICS ROMs. The camera isn't that important for me! I guess 30% in 7 hours is because of no wifi. With wifi on, I barely get 12 hours on a Mugen 1800 battery! Can't really afford to go without wifi since data doesn't work on my carrier.
[Streak 5 Android Development] besony:
No - let's hold on a little-

This dude is getting 7.5 hours with 30% drop in battery which is like ( 4% per hour ~ 25hours worth backup )

That is fine right?

I mean - My battery drain is in between 5-10% per hour ( with full time 2G ON- and Watsapp / Gmail / fb continuously on for push/sync )

I think we need a thread to discuss our battery lives & tech tips.

@ Adi -

I think you are getting decent backup.

plus - you should really reconsider the 'task killer' use.

ICS - the way it works - as I have understood, benefits very less from auto task killers ( even possible process hog itself )

Also,

regarding battery calibration - as suggested - works really good - if you run calibration and 0-1-2 cycles from full>>0>>Full>>0 pattern. ( preferrably charge with A/c power outlet. )

Cheers,

Sony.
