[Nook Color Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] pandachilli:
Thanks (& battery drain issue)

Hi

Just to say this is fantastic OS update to the Nook - I'm a UK user and imported mine specifically with this ROM in mind. Really cool so far!

I do have a slight issue with battery use that's a niggling me. I took the basic Mirage CM7.2 / ICS CM9 OpenGL & Non-OpenGL ROM (ie the last update on the thread) and had no trouble getting it on my SD card. It all boots and works beautifully with gapps etc.

BUT... running in CM9 I find that unless it's plugged in, battery is draining fast even when it's in 'sleep mode' - ie I usually do a quick click on the side button, or when the device is set to switch display off after 10 mins. A bit of an issue as after a full charge at midnight, in the morning it's about 65% already. Basically with no actually use the device is often dead and needs to charge again.

Am I doing something wrong?? I've spent a few days searching threads and the Nook forums generally before posting here. I'm using Juice Defender and attempting to find a good technical reason. I'm wondering it's a voltage problem between UK and US? Should be using an adapter or just a standard microUSB mobile (cell) phone charger?

Regardless - still want to say a HUGE THANKS to the developers of this particular ROM and the Nook forum users generally. I'm truly amazed at the dedication and effort that's going into this stuff - great bunch of technical know-how made available to beginners. Amazing.
[Nook Color Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ZueKary:
I'm having the same problem with both CM7 and CM9 and while I love how everything works and looks. I'm sad to say I'm considering going back to stock, which is a real shame, but unless I keep it plugged in, the battery just drains at a dramatic speed. Turning the Wi-Fi off helps, but I use the internet a lot, so that is not an option :(

battery issues [PARTIAL FIXES]

Zuekary

I'm not sure if this is any help to you (or anyone else??) but I've significantly reduced the battery drain in the last day or so by identifying and addressing a few issues (and basically using these forum search to 'thread title' to get a few more ideas).

NB: This does not constitute a perfect resolution, but has helped me regain use of the Nook, when I was beginning to wonder if I might have to sell it

1. BATTERY DRAIN whilst in 'sleep' mode: [PARTIAL FIX]

Upgraded to Juice defender to Pro. This enables: Turn off wifi when screen is off, schedule wifi usage off overnight.

Use Juice defender to dissallow certain apps web access.

Turn off Google Maps - I read this is a battery drain.

Disallow Google Calendar Syncing - yet another culprit apparently.

2. "Sleep of Death / SOD - Nook seems to randomly turn off completely [PARTIAL FIX]

When the Nook turns off and won't start press the power button for 5 seconds or so 3 times in a row, with a slight pause in between.

3. Perpetual Battery Drain [UNRESOLVED]

Return Nook to charge between uses

Reduce Screen brightness to 30%

4. Unsure of issues generally

Install Spare Parts+ and log battery killing apps
[Nook Color Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ZueKary:
Thanks for the suggestion!

I'll try Juice defender.

As of now I'm going to Install just CM7.2 and see how that works:

[Nook Color Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] pandachilli:
Interesting - if possible let us know how it goes. I'm keen to find a nice stable build, Cm7/CM9 seems like the "best of both" however, if I find out Cm7.2 has a healthier battery experience, I'm likely to switch, or prep an alternative sd just in case!

I'll update back here if I find anything more re: battery on ROM

:)
[Nook Color Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] RASTAVIPER:
There is no way to make CM9 to reach the fine battery consumption of CM7.

On the other hand it's not normal to have problems like drainage during sleep.

Install Betterbatterystats and check the Partial Wake locks for possible reasons that create the problem.

Thanks Rastaviper - going to look into this further, meanwhile if possible can you recommend the most reliable / "vanilla" / commonly used CM7 ROM for SD cards?

I'm nervous about flashing the whole device and installing on the internal HD but still want something with good battery.... possible?

Thanks in advance!

Wish you had posted that before. I installed 7.2 (stable) according to this link: http://taosaur.blogspot.com/2011/09/running-cyanogenmod-7-from-sd-nook.html which is suppose to be based on this post: http://xdaforums.com/show....php?t=1000957 with a newer image file. I did this on Friday and so far everything works wonderfully. Battery life is excellent. I think even better that when I was using the Stock and I have NOT installed any kind of battery saving app.

The only problem I keep having, which I also had with the previous installation is the status bar disappearing randomly. I get an error message "the application statusbar (process com.android.systemui) has stopped unexpectedly)". The only suggestion I have found is to wipe the card which did wipe before installing this version using "EaseUS Partition Master 9.1.1". If you have any suggestion on how to fix that issue I would feel very happy with the performance I have.

Even a tip on how to reopen the status bar without rebooting will be greatly appreciated.
[Nook Color Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ZueKary:
My current installation is wonderful with battery life. If I can get a fix for the "the application statusbar (process com.android.systemui) has stopped unexpectedly)" error. It will be the closest to perfection I have tested so far and I had tested 3 different installations so far plus I used the stock for nearly a year.

I found the following recommendation in the link posted by RASTAVIPER (thank you!). I'm giving it a try right now. Will report tomorrow how it is working after unchecking "disable full screen".
[Nook Color Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ZueKary:
So far working excellent, no status bar crash, battery is not draining any faster than expected, but enableling full screen is annoying in certain application including book readers, so installing the button savior is a must.
[Nook Color Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] pandachilli:
Great news - thanks for feeding back.. so you're using "[ROM][CM7] [v1.3] Size-agnostic SD Card image and CM7 installer for SD Cards." ??

RE: battery - no drainage during sleep, random power off's etc?

Going to wipe my SD and start again this evening BUT...can't decide between your recommend ROM or RastsVipers's suggestion of "CM7, Mirage"

Confused.
[Nook Color Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] satya-1998:
I experience only 3 percent drain Max overnight. I recommend you use a Task Killer and clean your RAM and turn off the screen when you do not need it. Another handy tip is to use System App Remover and delete the phone.apk to stop battery drain due to cell standby..
[Nook Color Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ZueKary:
I like the handy tip of removing the phone.apk :o

Now can you tell me where is that thank you button? (Never mind. I found it :D )
[Nook Color Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ZueKary:
No Random Power offs, No status crashes and no signification drainage during sleep

I think RASTAVIPER suggestion entitles rooting the nook and since mine is still under warranty, I did the sd card installation following this instructions: http://taosaur.blogspot.com/2011/09/running-cyanogenmod-7-from-sd-nook.html. I love the fact that the image used there makes the reaming of my 16GB sd card usable without having to rearrange the partitions. Which it was an extra step with the old image file.

I used cm-7.2.0-encore.zip, because I was too chicken to try the nightlies, if you do use the nightlies or find a better stable install of CM7 from a SD Card please let me know how it works out for you.

PD: I was going to use "[ROM][CM7] [v1.3] Size-agnostic SD Card image and CM7 installer for SD Cards." but a post by "leapinlar" (a member of this forum and creator of the revised image) suggested the link to the instructions I actually followed: http://taosaur.blogspot.com/2011/09/running-cyanogenmod-7-from-sd-nook.html
[Nook Color Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] DizzyDen:
Removing phone.apk and other system apps has been discussed at great length... it is placebo effect since even when it is activated, it will not be utilizing the non-existant radio anyway. Additionally, it will cause other things in market to break that list themselves as requiring access to the apps that have been removed.
[Nook Color Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] satya-1998:
Sorry dear, look at your battery stats once. Phone standby and tablet standby are separate headings. It works great for me
[Nook Color Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ZueKary:
That means that removing phone.apk will result in other poblems??
[Nook Color Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] pandachilli:
FYI - last night I followed your steps ZueKary and now have a nice stable new install of CM 7.2 running with no battery problems. <Phew!>

Also interested in the phone.apk, but leaving it in place for now. (Might use Juice defender to block it's web access tho)
[Nook Color Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] DizzyDen:
It has been known to cause some problems... If it were truly pointless, and would not cause other issues... the dev's would remove it from the source.
[Nook Color Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ZueKary:
Makes sense. Will leave it alone for now

Glad it worked out for you. I'm happy too. Last night I realized that playing mp3 files wasn't giving a nice sound, so increased the max cpu to 1100 (just in case it happens to you too)

Updating Newest ROMs for Dualbooting

I am new to dual booting. Got a new SD card fixed up and put on Racks cm7 and cm9 successfully.

Then I got his updates and flashed them as well. However, in CWM, I could not clear /cache and /Dalvik the regular way. At least it seems that way... when I did that in CWM, it only cleared the one for cm9.

At least that is how it seemed to me.

Does anyone know if that is true? How do I clear them for just the primary side?

Now, I converted the latest stable cm7-encore-7.2.0 for the dualboot, along with the 20110828 gapps and installed them. However, I can't get to the playstore... I think I will have to format /system1 and /data1 as though I were doing a factory reset.

BTW....The DOS dualbootSD converter does NOT work! However, the Android one worked just fine on my nook....
[Nook Color Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] RASTAVIPER:
Each partition (primary or alternative) has its own recovery.

So if you want to delete data, wipe cache etc of one of the 2 systems, you need to boot to corresponding recovery. If you flashed Racks dual boot rom without changing options, then CM7 is at normal recovery and Cm9 at alternative.

Concerning play store what is the problem? It's not installed or it doesn't log you in?

About converting script both author and members have checked many months ago that only Android version of script is working. Unfortunately couldn't find how to fix DOS version.

Thanks Rastaviper! I will experiment with that. I wiped the SD and started over from scratch. I will experiment with the cm7 update again soon.

Hey everyone, I am thinking about writing a shell script for getting all the stuff you need for andoid dev set up. I think this would be really useful for some people and would save a lot of time for aspiring developers. Of course this would be for linux at first and it would more or less include:

1. install repo and offer to download aosp/cm9/any other you want source

2.set up basic dependencies for building source and such, including proper java version

3. install rom kitchen

4.install apktool/apkmanager and all its stuff

5. add stuff to path and add useful aliases

and anything else you guys want.

Let me here some input here on what you think before I spend a bunch of time doing this, and if people seem to like it I will go ahead.

i feel like i know all the key players in the photo editing app world (Aviary, camera zoom FX, Camera 360, little photo plugin, picsPlay Pro, picSay Pro, Pixlr-o-matic, Vignette, PS Touch) but i wanted to check and see if there was anything out there i have not heard of thats worth looking at. I do wish there was the same great options that are available for iPhone (Filter storm Pro, VSCO Cam, Snapseed)

what im really looking for is a little more capability other then laying a filter over a photo. PicsPlay Pro is probably the best one i have found so far since i can use curves along all the RGB values and i like the opacity option on the filters, but i would like the use of layers and such. PS touch gives me all this, but since its not specifically designed for phones its not really user friendly enough to be able to use on the go.

so does anyone have any good suggestions on photo editing apps? (and yes, i know snapseed is coming out soon, but there is not ETA, they are still in testing)

What CM10 you flashed ?
[HTC Sensation] MikeDVH:
Bruce2728's version here

If you haven't got this version already, make sure you download this: "cm-10-20120831-bruce2728-pyramid.zip", this: "cm-10-20120831-bruce2728-pyramid-buildpropfix.zip" and this: "gapps-jb-20120830-bruce2728-signed.zip" and flash them in that order.

If you are coming from another version of CM10 then I would recommend a factory reset wipe before going ahead, just to be sure.

If you are coming from an older version of Bruce's CM10, then no need to wipe anything, but I would advise fixing permissions. I always do and I never have any of the issues that other users seem to report.

Hope that helps.

As some of you probably know thanks to the crap way in which htcdev unlocks your bootloader and with no s-off for the One X, in order to flash custom ROMs/Kernels the boot.img must be flashed outside of recovery in fastboot.

I've been doing this with my laptop but when I can be away and on the move for extended periods I could really be doing without keeping my laptop on me for doing this process everytime my ROM gets updated.

Therefore I was wondering if there was any way in which my Nexus 7 could be utlized to perform the command:

fastboot flash boot boot.img
