My experience

After a week of playing around, I finally got it to work. Nook Tablet is really picky about SD Cards. I initially tried a Centon 2 Gb SD Card, it won't even boot. I then tried a Sandisk UHS-1 16gb Ultra. It boot.but crash constantly with a repeating gear. I tested the card and it wrote at 7 mps and was mildly defective. I contacted the vendor and they sent me a replacement card. The new card wrote at 10 mps, but still fail after boot in the nook. Eventually,I was able to get it to work using a Sandisk class 4 16gb.

missing files

It seems that *ALL* files on goo.im relating to installing CM10.x on the Nook Tablet have gone missing. Supposedly they were being migrated on their site, but it's been a while now that the files have been missing. So is there an alternative download location?
[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] ghostknyght:
Any I'm wondering the same thing as well.
[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] digixmax:
As an alternative to building the CM image for SD from scratch, you might consider downloading and burning one of Succulent's pre-made SD CM10.1 or CM10.2 images.

If you prefer a different allocation for the /data and /sdcard partitions than what exists on the pre-made image, you can use a partition tool to adjust them (e.g., delete /sdcard, expand /data, then recreate /sdcard) before you boot and use the image for the first time.

If you still want to build from scratch, just copy and retain the 4 files MLO, u-boot.bin, flashing_boot.img, and recovery.img you find on the /boot partition.

Made my First bootable SD card for NT

Finally. It took a couple WEEKS to sort through the immense volume of posts (Thanks go to ALL the xda-Developers who have been and are still working on making Android OSs available and useful to all us newfies.)

I went totally conservative: started with Succulent's CM 10.0 ready-made 2GB SD-image. I burned it to an 8GB Sandisk Class 4 card: totally bare bones. It boots up from SD slot like a charm, whether connected with USB cable or totally stand-alone (a good sign, that latter feature, judging from other posts I've been reading).

I'm impressed with the reports of stability of CM 10.0 (Android 4.1.2 ) - from Digixmax and Succulent, as well as with the favorable in-depth review by Diablo67 (http://xdaforums.com/member.php?u=3854679). The latter lists several significant performance improvements of Android 4.1 over the various 4.0 (and earlier) versions out there.

So my plan is to stick with CM10/Android 4.1.2 - for a while anyway - until there is a demonstrably more stable version available!

N.B. I'll quote Digixmax briefly here, on how easy you should find the 1st part (what I already did) to be :

" Note that Succulent provides at his blog (http://iamafanof.wordpress.com/2013/...k-tablet-0110/) pre-made images of his CM10.1 builds that can simply be burn to SDcard (using DiskImage_1_6_WinAll or Win32DiskImager) after which the SD card would be immediately ready-for-use."

That is what I did: easy as pie!

My plan is now to do 2 things, not in this order.

(1) Write the CM 10.0 boot-sector files to the NT's internal storage, and

(2) Make a backup of the original native NT boot sector on a 2GB bootable SD disk.

Maybe I need to mention that before I get there I totally appreciate the need to become a lot more familiar with the workings of my NookDroid machine. So after saying all that, I MUST end by expressing deepest gratitude to Digixmax (http://xdaforums.com/member.php?u=3511186) as well as to Succulent (http://iamafanof.wordpress.com/). May God give them and their xda-developers colleague-wizards more knowledge and wisdom: they are among a minority who know the best way to gain new knowledge is to share that which they already have.

P.S. Pointers from others who made that journey I'm now planning, or who can suggest "how to proceed" tips for helping others like me along will be humble accepted and deeply appreciated.:highfive:
[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] digixmax:
I'd suggest that you use SD based recovery to make a backup copy of your NT's current stock ROM (/boot, /recovery, /system and /data -- see http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2575489 for info).

Even though you are running CM off an SD card, there is still potential for accidents and mistakes to happen that would mess up the NT stock config -- e.g., flashing by mistake the emmc instead of sd version of ROM (or Gapps) when updating to a new ROM release.

[Sprint LG Optimus G] MikeDroid:
Simply unlocking boot loader and flashing stock rooted rom nearly bricked my phone and definitely bricked wife's phone. Now my wife is on her old evo due to bricking and I don't want to go through this again on the my lg when jelly bean comes out next month. HTC was much easier and more reliable. Just my 2 cents.
[Sprint LG Optimus G] genaro12543:
Uhhhhh...I rooted and unlocked mine during halftime of a bball game easiest thing in the world. Its not the device I'm sure its the user :P
[Sprint LG Optimus G] MikeDroid:
Rooting and unlocking... Easy schmeezy, Flashing a zip, not a very reliable thing on our lg phones. I'm familiar with flashing roms wiping cache etc. Never worried about it on evos.
[Sprint LG Optimus G] simpkill:
What recovery are you using?
[Sprint LG Optimus G] genaro12543:
Yeah stick to twrp and you'll be super good that's the most reliable recovery

If you have cwm just use the freegee app to change to twrp
[Sprint LG Optimus G] gitit20:
You did not do it right then because it worked fine on the 3 i have used it on before posting something about it being too quirky you should do a little research
[Sprint LG Optimus G] MikeDroid:
1. ROOTED

2. UNLOCKED 2 weeks later

3. Rebooted. No issues

4. DL stock rooted odexed v9 from xda

5. From recovery wiped cache/dalvick

6. Flash zip from root directory

TWRP nearly bricked my phone. CWM = Wife's phone bricked.

Where is the user error?
[Sprint LG Optimus G] lensutton:
I have done this 3x on two different phones using TWRP and have not had one issue. I am not sure what happened but I promise you it was not the phone. CWM is buggy, so I see why your wife's phone is messed up. However I can only assume you have some corrupted download to explain your issues on the other phone. I have also walked a kindergarten teacher with no computer skills beyond word through this over instant message with no problems.
[Sprint LG Optimus G] exb0:
4.5/5.5. Wipe user data?

Tried that too although not necessary unless your flashing a custom or deodexed rom. Devs are great. Phone is unstable when it comes to flashing. That's all.
[Sprint LG Optimus G] Shelnutt2:

[Sprint LG Optimus G] xboxfanj:
Reinstall drivers. Use tsilenzios automated lgnpst install which has drivers. Then flash stock.
[Sprint LG Optimus G] BigRitz:
Yea I dont think you like the phone, there is nothing quirky about this phone. Its fast looks beautiful and has awesome battery life.

I like other members have used all the tools avail to root on 6 different phones and haven't had a single issue.

If your flashing stock deodexed ZV9 over ZV8 then you absolutley going to need to wipe everything and only use twrp at the current moment as it is the most stable recovery we have.

There is never a reason to not do a full factory reset wipe cache/dalvik cache other than being lazy , and yes I understand that having to re-do all apps and contacts is a pain but if you use gmail to its potential ( all of us androiders should) then logging back into your account does most of the work and leaves no room for questions or error.

Hey guys, I'm trying to port a rom, but I cannot manage it to boot :S.

When the device boots, it gets stuck at bootanimation for 5 exact minutes. After that, it reboots and does it all over again..

I cannot get a logcat because adb server isn't initialized... I think that maybe making a nandroid backup, and exploring the backup, however I cannot find a way to open the .tar files from a CWM recovery...

Does anyone know if there is any issue related to this specific behavior?...What might it be?
[Android Apps and Games] dmitrypr:
January 9, 2013, Barnaul – Russian IT company Enterra (enterra-inc.com), a software, mobile applications and games developer, announces about a release of “Sea Battle: Confrontation” game for Android OS on Samsung devices (according to an exclusive agreement between the two companies).

“Sea Battle: Confrontation” is a mobile version of classic well-known sea battle on the notebook sheet, but which includes the opportunity of game play via Wi-Fi/Bluetooth network and management with S Pen or finger.

One of the strengths of our game version is a simulation of the game battleground in the form of notebook sheet and the ability to play with opponent via Wi-Fi/Bluetooth channels.

Developers about the game design:

“We didn’t have other variants of visual design as the last time we played the sea battle was in the university, and then it was just a piece of squared sheet from a notebook and a ballpoint pen”.

Developers about the opportunity of game play via Wi-Fi and Bluetooth:

“We had to work hard that the invitations of opponents to the game and the game itself via network wouldn’t cause any troubles, would be fast, stable and without a single break”.

Here is a full list of game features:

•	search of opponents and the ability to play via Wi-Fi/Bluetooth channels;

•	game with a virtual opponent in the single-user mode;

•	game battleground in the form of notebook squared sheet lined for the game;

•	placement of ships manually on outlined cells or line;

•	auto-placing of ships;

•	management of game play with S Pen or finger;

•	appropriate surroundings and sound;

•	the Hall of Fame for achievements;

•	and also additional weapons – radar, airstrike, mine.

“Sea Battle: Confrontation” game is offered for free via Samsung Apps online store. The game is available for Samsung devices based on Android OS 2.3.3 and later.

Great idea

Am I really the only one who also thinks this idea is the nuts?

Am I the only one who longs to transform the mess that passes for a filing system on the internal sd using symbolic links into a beautifully organized, encrypted and cloud synced system on my external sd?

Is it just me and a few others that want to be able to achieve the above so that we can move from one ROM to another or recover from a lost phone with the minimum of fuss?

Are we freaks? :cyclops:

Say it isn't so XDA!! :crying:

I'm gonna try this on my international S3 running Null_ Rom 25 JB 4.1.2

PS do you have any idea how the entire ExtSD or just a folder can be enrypted using Cryptonite and automatically mounted at boot time?

Is this along the lines of what you're looking for?

Also your idea is pretty insane, but also genius :D

If you get that to work please do come back and share :)
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] emp111:
Insane ideas are the best lol

Thank you for your prompt reply, yes it is asking a lot I know but I think that it can be done.

Now if you really thought that idea was insane......check this out: :eek:

Imagine that we asked every Android app developer to submit the various paths used for their config (and config backup) files to a central database and had the ability to add or own custom paths (which could be added to the central database once approved).

We could build an script/app that would retrieve a list of currently installed apps on your phone then automatically build a symbolically linked file system (and/or backup file system) in the location of your choice that you could either encrypt and/or sync using your current tools or even incorporate this functionality into the app itself along with the ability to choose what was encrypted/backed up and how i.e. either synced to the Cloud or (S)FTP or SMB as either a dd copy or even a cwm flashable zip.

Could I dare hope for a Tasker module or the ability to add custom scripts?

I wish I could do this myself but my coding skills are non existent :(

Anyway the LUKS manager app won't automatically mount a file system, but I really like it anyways, thank you for pointing me to it!

And on the Ext4 front, the mount command (yes the 1st one :() failed, maybe the op could offer a suggestion. :angel:

BTW is there a place for people to suggest ideas for apps here?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] CNexus:
Wait really it wont? I couldve sworn I remembering that it did

But dude....

You need to learn yourself some java and start whipping stuff up :D :D

Idk about the whole central database thing, but the rest could definitely be done with root access

I think the main problem with that is the proprietary aspects...i mean even here on XDA where binaries released are supposed to be GPL compliant, many of them arent and its sad because it deteriorates the overall quality of work thats released afterward
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] emp111:
This whole thing is just hard work!

Got an app called ezymount (by ezynow) that automounts my ext4 64GB microSD at boot time.

I have to wait a few seconds for the boot process to complete but it's automatic, am pretty happy!!

Now gotta get symlinks, encryption and cloud synchronization sorted :/
