Still looking good on Hybrid 10.1

One further question that you may know the answer to - I cannot access quick setting via swiping top right of notification bar on the primary user (although it works for other users). The only difference I can think of is that I am a 'developer' on the primary user account. Either that or I have changed a setting somewhere..?

Any ideas - as it then makes it a bit long-winded to access other user accounts if my wife wants to play candy crush (or check her e-mails)..?

BUG of NookHD+ bootable CWM rev3

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2062613

NookHDplus-bootable-CWM-6023-for-emmc-stock-small-rev3-(02.17.13).zip

This version (rev3) has a bug.

When I use stock-small-rev1 and stock-small-rev2, I can use Mini-Tool Partition Wizard or EaseUS Partition Manager to expand the partition to the full size of the SD. However, the current version (rev3) can not be used to expand the partition! If I do that, the card will not boot after expanding the partition.
[Nook HD, HD+ General] leapinlar:
I have just now tested rev3 small again and it is depends on the card. One card (PNY) reliably expands with both Mini-Tool and EaseUS. Another card (Samsung) does not expand reliably with Mini-Tool, but seems to work with EaseUS. And I went back and tested rev1 and rev2 with the same results. I tried making a rev4 using many other combinations of images and files, all with the same unreliable results with the Samsung. So I guess I will just leave rev3 there.

'recent apps' causes reboot

I am running your hybrid setup with the 2/20 CM10 ROM on a 32gb SanDisk SD card.

I have not run the zips to allow stock to use the hybrid SD.

I have not run the emmc swap zips.

I've experienced several reboots (most end up rebooting to 'stock') when selecting an app from the 'recent apps' button / list. Its happened when selecting various apps (chrome, settings, etc).

The majority of the time it boots to stock even though the SD card is still in. If i then reboot again, it boots into CM10.
[Nook HD, HD+ General] leapinlar:
If it reboots to stock, that means you must have put one of the older kernels on with my fix 2/20 zip. Otherwise the 2/20 is programmed to always boot on a spontaneous reboot back to CM10. With the older kernels a spontaneous reboot goes to stock. Normal reboots always go to CM10 with both the new and old kernels.

[Nook HD, HD+ General] DamnYank!:
I didn't run the 'fix 2/20' zip as i was fine booting always to CM and wanted to start with a fairly simple setup.

Any thoughts on the 'recent apps' list causing the reboots?

Thanks for your time!
[Nook HD, HD+ General] leapinlar:
No, you might ask on the CM10 thread. I don't think it is related to hybrid, but may be.

Strange you boot to stock with the 2/20 kernel.

battery and wifi issue

Ew I wanna start by saying I'm a new usuer with the cwm and I love it. Big ups to those who created it, its genius. I have two major issues though. My battery dies within 2-3 hours of moderate use. And sometimes it'll go down low then fluctuate from low battery to good battery but still dies. Amd second problem, I keep being disconnected from wifi. Any fix to this? I appreciate it

[Nook HD, HD+ General] leapinlar:
That is not normal. Were you having those problems before you installed any of the zips? And what did you install, including any third party apps you installed later with Play Store? I suspect it is a rouge app doing that.

Sent from my Nook HD+ running CM10 on Hybrid SD
[Nook HD, HD+ General] flyboyru215:
Thanks for the reply. And no it wasn't doing it before the zips. I've installed the gapps and extras. Then I've installed a few apps from the play store.
[Nook HD, HD+ General] leapinlar:
I would suspect it is one of the apps you installed from Play Store. I recommend you uninstall them one at a time until you find which one is doing it.

Will do. Any solution if its not that? And can I side load the app if it is an app. I really need the apps I've downloaded
[Nook HD, HD+ General] leapinlar:
It is not how you installed them, so sideloading will not make any difference. You can try restoring your backup and just installing the gapps + extras without installing any apps and see what that does.

SD card lost space after format

I had a problem with formatting my 8GB sdcard. I installed verygreen's CM10 on my sdcard and it ran well, but I decided to switch to leapinlar‘s hybrid version. However, I took my sdcard out and plug into the slot on my windows pc, a window pops out asking me to format this SD card and I clicked yes, now this card shrunk into 117MB, I tried re-format it with SD Formatter and no good, it keeps 117MB. I guess this due to the partition issue, however I don't know how to fix it. Any one could help? Thank you!!:confused:

---------- Post added at 09:20 PM ---------- Previous post was at 09:12 PM ----------

Solved by insert the card into nook and formatting with stock room.

I tried this today and u fortunately it didn't work. Please I hope u find a solution because id hate to leave cwm and do stock
[Nook HD, HD+ General] leapinlar:
What do you mean, it didn't work? You are still having your problems after just flashing the gapps + extras and no apps from play store?

I recommend you go to CWM and do a factory reset. That will cause you to re-register. Then do the gapps + extras with no play store apps and see what you get.

Hi,

Posting here as i'm not allowed to post in the development forums due to my post count. I'd just like to say a big thank you for your guide on installing gapps + extras. Followed the guide and it went smoothly without a hiccup. Enjoying every moment with my new HD+! :D

Thank you!

Just wanted to say how much I appreciate your CWM guide to rooting my Nook HD+. I'm thinking about installing the hybrid CM setup also, but root is working fine for now. :)

P.S. - Anyone else who's trying to root and having problems, go out and buy a class 4 Sandisk card! I had so many problems trying to root until I bought a Sandisk class 4 and then it went like a charm.

Stock Root and apps

I am looking at getting a Nook HD+ and after reading the forums it looks like I'll be able to get most of the apps I use by using the stock root method. Can anyone confirm if the Viz Manga app from the Amazon app store will install on a stock rooted Nook HD+? I plan to use the microsd card to store my manga. I plan to have a card for each of the comic stores like dark horse.

nookHD+ wher N2A SD card was used

I bought a nookHD+ last week and a N2A SD card. I can not get the N2A card to work worth crap. After over 10 hours it take 15 minutes to boot into Android, and whenever the nook gets info (downlad an app, email, AccuWeather) it goes thru the 15 minute reboot (~ 6-8 cycles alternating thru the nook and N2A screens).

All I really want is acess to the full play.google apps.

I just want to be sure if I take out the N2A card your "NookHDplus-bootable-CWM-6023-for-emmc-stock-4GB-rev3" is compatible.
[Nook HD, HD+ General] leapinlar:
Yes it is. In fact you can reburn that N2A card with my image. No need to buy another SD. Even though I do not personally agree with what N2A is doing selling someone else's work, they do usually provide quality SD cards. SanDisk Class 4 usually.

WHAT A DIFFERENCE. It took 1 hour to not only get Play Store on my nook HD+, but it went without any problems.

After all the BS wit N2A, I spent more time re-reading the instructions than actually doing them.

I don't know if you can help, but when I try to download Google Maps, it says my nook is incompatible?
[Nook HD, HD+ General] leapinlar:
Yep, just fixed that. If you read the last few posts on the CWM thread, it talks about a change I made to the location services zip which makes Google Maps compatible.

I have a question. I only had a 32GB card to do the stock root gapps method last night. If I go buy a 8GB card, can I just copy over all the files from the 32GB and use it instead, or do I have to burn the CWM disc image again?
[Nook HD, HD+ General] leapinlar:
No, just copying files will not do it. However, if you burn the new card first, then copy any extra files you have on the old card, like backups, it is ok.

I tried to install from the Play Store but it said the device was not supported and did not give me an option to install. I did not enable Universal Root, do you think that may have caused an issue for this app?
[Nook HD, HD+ General] leapinlar:
It should not have made a difference. The app did not say it required root. But you can try applying universal root to see if that helps. If it does not help and you don't want root, just apply the disable root zip and you will be back to the same.

I can't think of any reason why it is saying incompatible for you. I have location services applied, but that should not matter either.

But you can install the Amazon app store or the 1mobile.com app store and install from one of them. Get them from the Amazon web site or 1mobile.com web site.

I have read and read, But I can't find this answer. I hit my home N button and checked the default as to not use zeam. Now it's a big pain to get it open. how do I get it back to letting me chose which one. I did not root. I only ran 1 update file. I can get to google play and I have install stuff. I just cant get back to the way it first was
[Nook HD, HD+ General] leapinlar:
I'm a bit confused about what you are asking. You say you selected to not use zeam by default. That means that the Stock home is default. Is that what you meant? And now you can't get to zeam?

But then you say that you can't get back to the way it was. What does that mean? You mean you cannot get back to the stock home screen? Did you put the AnyCut Home shortcut on the zeam screen like I described?

I am confused.

EDIT: I just reread. I now think I know what you mean. You selected stock home as default. You need to go to Play Store and install another launcher, like ADW. Then the next time you push N it gives you the choice again. Then you can select either zeam or ADW, just don't select stock as default.
[Nook HD, HD+ General] smooth781:
I think you know what I want now. I just cant get zeam back to the N button with installing something else? I should not have hit default. I know now. Other wise I have to use the volume up and app thing to get to my other apps. I wish there was a better way.
[Nook HD, HD+ General] Tigrisan:
Is Zeam not listed in your extended apps? In the volume up and app list? If so, click on that and when it opens, under settings, set it as your default launcher.
[Nook HD, HD+ General] leapinlar:
Yes, use the vol up thing to run Play Store and install ADW like I said earlier. That resets the default choice. Ordinarily you can just clear the default in settings, but the home launcher does not show in settings. If you don't want ADW on there after resetting default, just uninstall it.

First thanks for your post and help about flashing Google play store on the stock nook hd+. (I didn't want it rooted, so I only made backup and flashed GApps + extras and set zeam as my default launcher) Had no problems with the process and I am happy to have some google store apps and kindle books.

Two things frustrate me however.

1. Is there a way to make search button to search all my apps, including Google play ones?

Now it's the default search with 2.0.6 firmware, and it seems to ignore Alps installed with the play store and search only in nook content.

2. Zeam is great! ... but cashed twice for a day. Could I found logs somewhere to know something more about the it's problem? When it crashes it shows a sorry message and when pressing home button, the device asks again which launcher to use by default.

and ... a side question. Is there a way to map home button double click and press and hold to some useful actions like search, without routing the device ?

Thanks for your time !
[Nook HD, HD+ General] leapinlar:
I'm not sure about the answers to your first two questions, but the last is easy. I don't know much about search. And if zeam is crashing on you, get ADW. I like it better anyway.

Get the Home2 Shortcut app free on the Play Store. It lets you assign actions to double and single clicks of home. Not sure about long presses though.

Hybrid SD question (or bug)

I used the Hybrid SD files and procedure here, which I hope will resolve some of the issues I've had with the N2A cards. The instructions were very clear, thanks!

I am having an issue with the screen resolution. It appears to be incorrect. There are large gaps at the top and the bottom of the screen, approximately 1" tall. The persistent search bar will go all the way to the top, but I cannot place any icons or widgets in the area. I tried a few different launchers with the same results. Turning the tablet horizontally stretches the search bar but leaves the gaps in the same place (on the long end.) I've attached a screenshot showing the gaps -- I've placed the bottom row of icons as far as they will go. I don't see any other comments regarding this issue, so maybe it's just me?

I'm using a SanDisk 64GB class 10 card.

You might try a different launcher, like Nova or ADW and see if that helps.

>but for people just coming to the Nook this will be a help.

Guilty as charged. I was holding off on the Nook to wait for CM to make it onto eMMC (rather than SD). But the $149 deal came and had to jump. I love the HD+ screen, which has the perfect size and aspect ratio (3/2) for reading & browsing in portrait. 7" was too small and 10" too large, and most Androids have 1.6 AR which was too elongated for portrait use.

Am hoping this sale isn't the beginning of the end for the Nook line. B&N's last earnings call wasn't optimistic. That said, I plan to wipe off stock and replace it with CM, so B&N's well-being isn't that great a concern.

Profuse thanks to leapinlar for his yeoman work in guiding the Nook flock, and to verygreen/leapinlar/others for the dev work. Time to start reading.

sdcard vs emmc CM10 roms

Hi, I am new in this area and just got my new HD+. I was looking at leapinlar's Hybrid SD instructions. It was very helpful. But I do have a question, when I followed the link to the CM10 ROM, I found there were two versions: cm-10-20130511-UNOFFICIAL-ovation-sdcard.zip and cm-10-20130511-UNOFFICIAL-ovation-emmc.zip. Which one should I pick? I want to keep Nook stock untouched (for kids :) ). So that I can select boot to either CM or Nook stock at the boot time. Based on my reading, I think I need to install CM to SD card. Does that mean I need sdcard version ROM? Or does "sdcard" or "emmc" here mean where I should put the ROM for CWM to install it from? Like even I want to install to sdcard, but since i can only use windows pc to save the rom to nood emmc, I have to download the emmc version? Got a little confused. Please help. Thanks a lot!
[Nook HD, HD+ General] leapinlar:
You want the sdcard version. The version means where it gets installed, not where you copy the zip. If you choose the emmc version it replaces your stock ROM on emmc, which is not what you want.

I just got a Nook HD+ and am trying to do an initial backup of the stock system and am stuck at part 14 from post 1.

I have a new SanDisk 8GB SD card (4 speed) and have formatted it per SDFormmatter quick format, set first partition acitve via Mini_tool Partition Wizard, and unarchived the "NookHDplus-bootable-CWM-6028-for-stock-BOOTFILES-r4-(05.15.13).rar" file to the SD card. I then boot my Nook HD+ off the SD card and CWM boots and I can move up and down and select backup and restore on the menu, but then I get "Can't mount backup path." when trying "backup". Do I have to create a directory on the SD card so CWM has a place to backup the files or something?

I did do backup to internal sdcard and that worked, but it seems to backup to the Nook HD+ internal memory. I'm trying to avoid adding stuff to the internal memory as I want to do a stock backup which does not include the backup to internal sdcard I just did. Can I delete that backup somehow? I see the option "delete from internal sdcard", is that what I want?

In any case, how do I get backup to get past the "Can't mount backup path"?

[Nook HD, HD+ General] tonyp22:
Hmm, I unplugged it and plugged it back in. I got a "beepBEEP" of the USB device having connected, then a couple of seconds later a "BEEPbeep" - the disconnect alert. But (it gets weirder) Android Phone still shows up as Working properly in DM, BNTV600 still shows up in Devices and Printers, and adb devices still shows no device IDs.

ADB killed and restarted, no change.

Edit: It actually did reconnect, but I still can't see it via adb devices. After it connected and disconnected, it did reconnect like 1 second later. I verified this by Ejecting it, removing the cable, and reinstalling the cable a few times. So it is connected and Working Properly in Win7; just can't be seen by adb.

BTW, it doesn't show up under Portable Devices, only under Android Phone. Interestingly, I just tried my Nook Tablet and now that doesn't show up in adb either, when it worked fine in the past.
[Nook HD, HD+ General] leapinlar:
The nook tablet has a different device id so I think that is why it is not showing anymore.

Those other devices are your MTP driver and the Mac USB mass storage device and they are not working yet since you should be ignoring them.
[Nook HD, HD+ General] leapinlar:
Thank you for letting us know about that tool. It is awesome.

BTW, after using this tool, it is easier to differentiate between the drivers.

Vid_2080&Pid_0005&MI_00 is MTP under Portable Devices

Vid_2080&Pid_0005&MI_01 is the USB Mass Storage Device under USB Controllers - this is what shows up as a drive letter

Vid_2080&Pid_0005&MI_02 is the Android Composite ADB Interface under Android Phone

Vid_2080&Pid_0005\xxxxx where xxxxx is your serial number is a USB Composite Device under USB Controllers

I think these last two devices are what is critical for making ADB work. The last one is what causes the serial number to show when you type ADB devices.

Now that I see all this, I had to modify my modified driver in the first post. It's a wonder anyone go this working with that older driver, but at least one person told me it worked and it had worked for me.
