Hi, how useful can these sources be for our device?

http://www.omappedia.com/wiki/4AJ.2.5P1_OMAP4_Jelly_Bean_Release_Notes

I'm thinking about the hardware composer (that's the DSS for this device?) or some other ICS remnant in the current kernel.

I'd be willing to experiment on this on a couple of months when I get more spare time.

Thanks for your hard work.
[Nook HD, HD+ Android Development] verygreen:
Yes, I reshuffled the source yesterday to better conform to CM standards, also to isolate common HD and HD+ parts so they could be shared.

Now need to sift through overnight CTS report

[Nook HD, HD+ Android Development] verygreen:
There are no ICS remnants in the code (other than kernel bt module, even that's not ICS, just 3.0 style stuff. Really, we should be moving to 3.4 kernel, but that's a lot of work).

We already use omapzoom stuff to be up to date, that includes hw composer, domx and such.
[Nook HD, HD+ Android Development] bsharitt:
Good to hear. While this is one of the cleaner unoffical ports I've used, I always feel just a bit better knowing that certain basic standards are met. Some developers like to advertise as a CM port, but can't resist the urge to add too much of their personal touch. Thanks for being one of the good ones!
[Nook HD, HD+ Android Development] verygreen:
Well, certain things would be amiss, e.g. in my case I'll need to drop usb host switcher as part of quicksettings, I suspect, since no other device uses that (though I guess Nook Color could be adapted - but overall quicksettings stuff is really inflexible at the moment).
[Nook HD, HD+ Android Development] SCWells72:
For those that might be looking for this functionality, get fullscreen+ from the Play Store. It basically automatically switches to/from expanded desktop mode for a user-selected set of apps and optionally adds small on-screen buttons as overlays to the corners of the screen. This is exactly what I've been wanting!
[Nook HD, HD+ Android Development] Jd6J0r:
Nice find, thanks. Here's the market link (full!screen+):

https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=de.tsorn.FullScreenPlus

There's a free version that doesn't have the automatic mode:

https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=de.tsorn.FullScreen
[Nook HD, HD+ Android Development] e.mote:
>For those that might be looking for this functionality, get fullscreen+ from the Play Store.

I'll try this. I played around with the Expanded Desktop and PIE (which were fairly obtuse to activate, BTW) and it was a pain to get PIE to pop up. The Expanded Desktop feature is also sort of broken, although I haven't figured out the cause. I think this falls to an app add-on. I tried Button Savior which came from my Nook Color days, but that's now adware. Will try the above and see how it fares.
[Nook HD, HD+ Android Development] Jd6J0r:
I'm not sure what you mean, verygreen. That this isn't the information that the author of Nook Screen Recalibrate used to base his program on? Or, that it can't work on the HD+ because the TS controller works differently (that is, were seeing a placebo effect)?

It does seem better to me. Perhaps, he used the information in the thread I pointed to but used a more generic way of identifying the TS device?

For others reading the thread, here's the app link again:

https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.assid.android.nookrecalibrate

---------- Post added at 10:14 AM ---------- Previous post was at 10:09 AM ----------

[Edit: the following was a dumb post by me because WL does not have the Fullscreen feature, so ignore this! ] Another alternative is WaveLauncher, which is similar to the Wave on webOS devices. I used it with Tasker to emulate the Back and Home buttons on my Droid X when the physical buttons broke:

https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.mobilemerit.wavelauncher

It's completely invisible until you swipe out. The disadvantage is you have to have another program like Tasker to emulate the navigation buttons. It also hasn't been updated in a while but it worked on stock 2.10.
[Nook HD, HD+ Android Development] verygreen:
They certainy don't use (At least not exclusively) info in that wiki link for the TS controller recalibration.

But since it does work, they must be doing something else
[Nook HD, HD+ Android Development] verygreen:
Indeed. There's no /sys/bus/i2c/devices/2-0022/forcecal on the Nook HD+.

So what this tells us is "reboot" resets something in the controller.

Coupled with earlier reports that reboot temporarily fixes the problem and that the effect wanes away over time, that must be it.
[Nook HD, HD+ Android Development] leapinlar:
See my edit above. Is there anything to this?
[Nook HD, HD+ Android Development] verygreen:
/sys/bus/devices/3-0038/calibrate is read-only and you cannot write to it. You can read a string of numbers from there, though.

I guess I need to check in the driver for what does it do.
[Nook HD, HD+ Android Development] Jack45:
Along with other experiences revealing a lack of sensitivity, moving icons before I ran the app required repeated screen mashes. Now actions require a gentle touch. Will it last? Dunno, but if a periodic re-running of the app is all it takes to freshen things, I'm game.

In other words, it did "something," and building that something (technical, eh?) into your fine work to make the effect last would be super.
[Nook HD, HD+ Android Development] psycho_asylum:
The wallpaper keeps getting reset to the leaf one every reboot. Is that normal? I tried searching through the thread and only found reports of scaling issu.es
[Nook HD, HD+ Android Development] verygreen:
Well, I just checked and it does not get reset for me
[Nook HD, HD+ Android Development] pbcal:
Same here. Never resets.
[Nook HD, HD+ Android Development] psycho_asylum:
Thanks for checking for me. Any ideas why it would do that? I tried doing a factory reset already and it happened again after getting everything logged back in.
[Nook HD, HD+ Android Development] leapinlar:
Maybe it does not like the specific wallpaper you are using. What is it?

[Nook HD, HD+ Android Development] psycho_asylum:
I've tried 3 of the Live Wallpapers. I just set it to the first blue static wallpaper and it seems to be fine. Looks like a live wallpaper problem.
[Nook HD, HD+ Android Development] pbcal:
Try to re-download and re-install (formatting /system). In the initial setup (after first boot) do not select " restore account from google". See if that helps.
[Nook HD, HD+ Android Development] psycho_asylum:
I did not select that the last time I wiped data.
[Nook HD, HD+ Android Development] pbcal:
LOL. Then start liking the leaf wallpaper. It's not that bad.
[Nook HD, HD+ Android Development] jamus28:
Do you have an app that clears (systemapp) cache? That resets the wallpaper for me.

Need CM ROM for HD

Don't flame me bro.

I used these instructions to wipe og rom on HD+ and install CM 10.1, Worked great! I want to do my HD now the same way. I have my boot SD ready to go, CWM for HD but now I am looking for a CM rom. Can I use this same CM10.1 for HD? If not, the link over here, http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2062613

has about a million zips and none looks like a CM rom. Help please.
[Nook HD, HD+ Android Development] leapinlar:
No you can't use any of the files you used on the HD+ (except gapps). Even the burned SD is not usable. They are not compatible. But look on verygreen's HD emmc thread in the development forum and you can use those.

BTW, if you had not seen his thread, where did you get the CWM SD?

[Nook HD, HD+ Android Development] Classpro:
I'm ok with usb host setting in quick settings or separate program, bit is there any way not to reset host mode on reboot? I think it is necessary for host mode to stick after reboot to get usb digital audio. There may be another problem with usb audio but I'm guessing it may be the reboot issue. On my Nexus 7 using an otg cable you have to reboot it for the usb audio to work, and since your synthetic otg resets on reboot I'm guessing that's why it doesn't work.
[Nook HD, HD+ Android Development] psygn:
There was a very tiny "pop" sound whenever I pressed on the screen.

I turned the volume down all the way and rebooted and it was still present!

But after unchecking "Touch sounds" option in Settings -> Sound, the tiny pops disappeared. You would've thought that would be the first thing I checked, but I swear I had it off! Somehow that option turned on.

I don't think any sound or distortion should be coming from the speakers when sound is at 0%. So I would file this as a bug, but a very very low priority one if it even needs any attention.
[Nook HD, HD+ Android Development] verygreen:
There's no easy way to retain the setting over a reboot and there should not be any need.

I remember in CM7 on NookColor the usb audio worked when you connect it, no need to have it from boot on.

I guess I need to give it a try
[Nook HD, HD+ Android Development] pbcal:
Finally I received the USB adapter today, Tried different usb drives and usb keyboard / mouse. They all worked well except the card readers. I could not mound SD cards in card reader, neither usb2 nor usb3. Any idea?
[Nook HD, HD+ Android Development] Apk07:
This is most definitely the case. It seems like the sensitivity of my touchscreen decays over time. A reboot seems to reset it back to being as responsive as I want. Also, I don't know if its related but my touchscreen responsiveness on TWRP is terrible. Makes it barely usable. Gotta stay on CWM for now

I ran that Nook Color Calibration app yesterday and everything seems smooth so far but I'll have to leave my tablet on more to see if it comes back
[Nook HD, HD+ Android Development] franchize1989:
bought this tablet to see if it's any good. so far so good. and it was on sale. target has probably the best return policy, 30 days. I'm running this ROM internally, and there was one random boot. but no other problems, seems very stable so far. will update later, this is just day 1...
[Nook HD, HD+ Android Development] Iggy82:
Where did you get the adapter from? All I can find is HDMI/MHL adapters for Nook HD+
[Nook HD, HD+ Android Development] vishaljh:
Thanks verygreen for all your help.

I recently updated to the latest verygreen CM version 6/15 and tried the wifi direct option with my S4. I paired my S4 with the nook via wifi direct and this seems to be fine. However, when I try to send a file from S4 to nook, nothing pop-ups on nook to accept the file and also the file transfer shows as failed after 15-20 seconds.

Anyone had any luck with Wifi direct?

Cheers,

Vishal
[Nook HD, HD+ Android Development] pbcal:
Ebay / Amazon. BN does not make this adapter. I got this one http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B000GHXTA0/

There is US seller sells it for $2.28.
[Nook HD, HD+ Android Development] Classpro:
Verygreen: re usb dac, I don't know why nexus 7 has to reboot to connect to a dac or why turning on host mode alone won't work. Must need something to tell it to send usb audio through the cable instead of out the speakers. Let us know if you come up with a solution.
[Nook HD, HD+ Android Development] SteveCoops:
OK this s odd - I installed the latest build last night mainly to get louder audio. However if I play an MKV file which is encoded with 5.1 on the inbuilt speaker it's now great, but with headphones (from a mobile phone so they have the extra connector on the 3.5mm pin for the mic) then I only get what sounds like the front left and right channels and I am missing the centre channel!

If I use normal headphones with standard 3.5mm jack for just 2 channel audio then it works fine.

Any ideas?
[Nook HD, HD+ Android Development] Odenknight:
Figured out the issue for those who have magnetic cases (or any strong magnetic fields nearby)

I believe there is some sort of sensor that detects the magnetic field when in close proximity. If you close the flap w/ the nook still on, the nook screen will power off (sleep). If you turn off the display first, then fold the flap to covet the nook, you "MAY" see it perform the "screen lock of death". You can recover from that by closing the flap with the screen powered on.

I had to buy a case to confirm this, and now I like the case :)
[Nook HD, HD+ Android Development] vishaljh:
Guys.

Really appreciate if someone can try the wifi-direct functionality from the nook (copying from/to to the nook device) and let me know if this is working or not.

Thanks,

Vishal

Sorry if this question has been answered. I may return my nook for a refund, can I just restore my nandroid backup that I made of the stock ROM before I flashed cm10.1? Are there any other steps needed to return to the stock ROM?
[Nook HD, HD+ Android Development] leapinlar:
Yes, you should restore the stock backup. But if you flashed the CWM or TWRP recovery to emmc, you need to restore the stock recovery too. You can get it at my HD/HD+ CWM thread linked in my signature (item 5).

[Nook HD, HD+ Android Development] lyall29:
Thank you very much. One more question, I assume that I flash the stock nandroid backup first and then your stock recovery?
[Nook HD, HD+ Android Development] leapinlar:
Order does not matter as long as you don't boot in between.

I just thought of another solution for those that forgot to make or lost their backup. You can go to my HD/HD+ CWM thread linked in my signature and download my plain stock 2.1.0 (item 6) and flash that. It puts everything back, including stock recovery. You need to wipe data too if you use this option.

My friend have just bought nook HD+ from foreigner back from US, but I unable to boot it with any sdcard using your method or lepinlar's method too, can you give an advice?

My SDcard: Sandisk Class 4, 32GB wich is work perfectly with my nook HD+. I've try some Class 2 and Class 10 8GB also but no luck (ofcourse avoid all cards report in other topic).

Thanks alot for your hard work verygreen.

Some HD+ devices are just finicky. Try blowing air into the SD slot and just try many times to boot.

[Nook HD, HD+ Android Development] RhinoNelson:
Having just gone through the process of rooting I too had to try many many times to get my HD+ to boot from the SD card. It was a class 4 8 GB card. I tried both methods of creating the card (burning the image with WinImager and formatiing the card, copying the Boot files over and making the partition active) and inserting and reinserting repeatedly. Some HD+s seem to require more patience than others - but once I got it to work it was quick. And now that I put the recovery on the EMMC as well I can download ROMs to the internal and use CWM to flash from there so I don't have to rely on booting from the SD card any longer.
[Nook HD, HD+ Android Development] dbrickg:
Just tried between my Note II and Nook HD+ and couldn't get it to work. But I'd never heard of wifi-direct till I saw this post, so it may well be something I'm doing wrong. I could get to the wifi direct settings, and the two machines said they were connected, but when I went to copy a file from one to the other, I didn't see any wifi direct option in either esexplorer or root explorer.
[Nook HD, HD+ Android Development] bsharitt:
For me it was a different card. My 8GB card just would not boot, but one I sacrificed my 32GB card, it booted first try. Both sandisk, though I don't remember speeds right off.
[Nook HD, HD+ Android Development] leapinlar:
Just flash verygreen's emmc CWM zip from the first post with his bootable CWM SD also in the first post. But that means you have to get the CWM SD to boot at least once. So have it all ready with the CWM emmc zip on it already so it is there if and when it boots to the SD. And I recommend that you use the CWM emmc version instead of the TWRP emmc version since it has been reported that the TWRP emmc version does not reliably do backups and restores.

I guess with so many hardly bootable Nooks floating around it's high tiem to come up with another root exploit and do install-from-stock option with bypassing sdcard completely. Just need to find a good candidate one.
[Nook HD, HD+ Android Development] al mon:
Minor bugs in 6/15. - this is with the tablet UI installed. Not sure if which is causing this.

- on lock screen, sometimes, unlocking does not work. Must press power off and then on and then unlock

- automatic screen brightness does not work. Setting automatic and then touching settings turns off automatic. Manual set works fine
[Nook HD, HD+ Android Development] leapinlar:
I have one that is very bad if you need any testing.

My root exploit works really well, it just needs the install from stock option. My root exploit uses install-recovery.sh to set up userinit.d and has a init script there that runs the root. But clrbootcount.sh works equally well. And Dean Gibson was working on that one. I asked him to move his to the clrbootcount.sh so his would not interfere with my userinit.d implementation.

But come to think of it these roots all need a bootable SD to work to get the root. It would be great if you could figure a way to get root without a bootable SD. The trouble with using ADB is, first ADB is hard to set up on these devices, and second, you need root to be able to modify /system. Kind of a chicken and egg thing.

Hi all,

I just installed emmc and everything works great but how can I boot back to recovery? I tried to flash the Tabletui but can't get back to recovery. Any help would be appreciated.
[Nook HD, HD+ Android Development] verygreen:
Like you say, that's not a real exploit, you use insecure boot to modify fs directly.

I need something like what we used at the beginning to gain root from stock, no sdcard-boot.

Ideally something not even requiring a reboot in process too.

I was holding high hopes for that recent PERF_EVENTS exploit, but alas, that seems to be disabled in stock kernel.

Hm, come think of it, I also probably need a stock bootable from sdcard, so that I can use that for my testing and not need to go back and forth between stock and CM in emmc. So many things to be done still...
[Nook HD, HD+ Android Development] Tom2112:
I just wanted to put it out there that I've been having the touch sensitivity problems since I switched from stock to CM10.1. I can't say that it wasn't present in the stock ROM or not, since I didn't have it in stock very long.

Thanks to Jack45 for finding that app that helps.

I hope a permanent solution is found. Though, as work-arounds go, that app is about as easy as it gets.

[Nook HD, HD+ Android Development] leapinlar:
You have two options.

First, hold n and power when you reboot. That boots directly into recovery.

Second, go to settings, about tablet and tap on the build number several times. That will enable developer options, then go to developer options and check off advanced reboot. That makes reboot to recovery available in the power off menu.

Very curious: wifi direct sounds really super, like you can transfer files really quickly between devices. But I can't find much of any information about it. There's a youtube bit on it:

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RM3Q1oiHTGU

This seems to be a bit out of date, but allowing for some changes, I go to settings / wifi / options-settings / wifi direct, on both devices, and I can send an invite from one, and allow the connection from the other, and it says "connected". And then I can use "root expolorer" or "es explorer" to choose a file and then long-press and select "send" and then choose "send by lan", and I get a window that says, "Please choose target" and I can choose my other device, but after a second I get "disconnected"....

Hmm, just noticed that my standard wifi is still connected. Maybe I need to turn that off first... back in a bit....

Well, I did get files to transfer, but I don't have a clear enough idea of what exactly I did to try to explain it.

I've got one HD+ running SD Card and another emmc. I noticed the screen flashes (complete blank/redraw while loading apps or whatever) - but it seemed to clear up after some apps installed and use. not sure why... as for speed. Anyone done some benchmarks of the internal flash speed. If you have a well-performing SD Card then you may not notice a major difference. However, a lot of people are having SD Card interface / reliability problems, for which hybrid or native emmc avoids.
