Driving back to Houston right now and trying to use the native Hotspot. It says the laptop is connected but we're not able to access the Internet. Any suggestions?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] coogrrr94:
Tried to connect using a tablet, same thing, it connects to the phone but no Internet access. Maybe it's just that the phone doesn't have a strong enough signal, hard to believe the signal on my old evo was stronger than on this phone.

Set the password up and enter it. It should work right away. It uses the phone number as the default password but you may need to change it.

Boot into recovery and mount then copy across your chosen Rom from your pc and flash

Easy way out

i always use this method to flash roms as it cuts the hassel of copying the rom into the device for flashing and its very easy actually......just Follow these Steps.. :fingers-crossed:

Download Wug' Nexus Toolkit

Install it and Boot your device into TWRP recovery

Now (assuming that you have Proper Nexus 7 drivers) Open the Toolkit and connect you device to the PC.

Now click the launch button under "Advanced Utilities"

On your device click advanced and the ADB Sideload.

Check mark Wipe Dalvik Cache and Wipe Cache and Swipe to start Sideload.

Now on your PC, click 'sideload update' under "ADB Sideload Update".

Click ok in the next pop-up and now Browse to the custom Rom that you want to flash.

The rom will be uploaded to your device temporarily for flashing and then it will be DELETED once it is Flashed.

This can take upto 30minutes depending on your computer's SPEED.

The rom will be flashed and the device will boot up.

I AM NOT RESPONSIBLE IF YOUR DEVICE BREAKS, OVER HEATS, OR YOU SPILL COFFEE ON IT. DO THIS AT YOUR OWN RISK..!!!

HIT THANKS IF I HELPED...
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Username invalid:
Cuts the hassel of copying the rom into the device... how hard is it to copy a zip file from your computers download folder to your device download folder? I found it to be much easier to have all my flashables on my device for reflashing with MultiRom without the need of my computer. The majority of the time just flashing the ROM will not be sufficient; flashing gapps and patches is also needed for it to work properly. And I think it would be extremely concerning if it took up to 30 minutes, even if the computer used was USB 1 with 3400 RPM IDE hard drive. It would not be possible to use a toolkit as his device is unrecognized by his computer, does not have the proper ADB interface driver needed to interact with the toolkit and does not have USB debugging enabled.

Hey....Cool Down Bro..

Everybody has different opinions about everything and i am not imposing it, I am just suggesting.
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Rirere:
This wouldn't help at all considering that it looks like OP panicked and did a full internal wipe.

OP, if you have TWRP working I would suggest booting into TWRP, going to Advanced > ADB sideload and then find the ROM zip you were trying to install, then open up command prompt and use adb sideload <path-to-zip> (how exactly you go about doing this last step depends on where you get adb-- any of the previously linked toolkits should include an adb.exe file though that you can run).
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Username invalid:
I was replying to the other persons comment, not to the OP. Obliviously he would not be able to connect his device to the computer and use a toolkit.

Google Apps; other CyanogenMod builds

Google Apps

http://goo.im/gapps

As of 2013/10/09, the latest release for CM10.1 is 20130812, but please check the linked page for updates.

Please make sure that you have the correct Google Apps flashed before reporting problems involving the Google Apps (Play Store, Google Keyboard, etc.).

Other CyanogenMod builds

This is the thread for CM10.1 stable releases. There are other official CyanogenMod builds for Nook Color available:

CM11 nightly builds -- these experimental builds, based on Android 4.4, contain the latest changes to CyanogenMod and to hardware support for the Nook Color. As the name suggests, new builds are made and posted (roughly) every day; these builds are fully automatic, with no testing done before posting.

CM10.2 stable releases -- while the state of the Nook Color-specific hardware support should be nearly identical to that of CM10.1, you may find this Android 4.3-based release more (or less!) stable than this Android 4.2-based one.

Archived nightly builds for CM10.2, CM10.1, and CM10. You may find the last CM10 nightly (20130421) faster than the later releases, particularly during playback of HD 720p video.

Please check that your questions are in the appropriate thread. (If you're interested, there's lots of past discussion in those threads, as well as the development thread.)
[Nook Color Android Development] steven676:
Frequently Asked Questions and Troubleshooting

The soft keyboard keeps crashing!

The Play Store is acting up!

Did you flash the correct Google Apps?

What happened to the "Developer options" and "Performance" screens in Settings?

They're hidden by default now in CM10.1 and later. To show them, go into "About tablet" and tap the build number (for CM10.1 stable releases, JDQ39) seven times.

How do I get the Honeycomb/ICS tablet UI?

You want to use the Auto-Patcher to modify your ROM for the tablet UI. (Don't forget to thank Caldair for maintaining the Tablet UI mod, and mateorod and the rest of the Auto-Patcher developers for building that tool.)

I'm having a problem with my Nook Color running CM10.1.

That's not a question :p

Okay, I'm having a problem with my Nook Color running CM10.1 -- is there something I can do to troubleshoot?

Glad you asked! Please check the following:

Does the problem occur with a clean install of CM10.1? This means wiping /data and not restoring a Nandroid backup afterwards. Don't restore system apps and/or their data in Titanium Backup either (user apps/data are okay).

Are you overclocking? If so, does the problem occur when you set the maximum clock speed to 1000 MHz or below? To be clear, we are not interested at this point in bug reports of any kind that happen if you have the maximum CPU speed set above 1000 MHz. If you're experiencing system crashes or "sleep of death" (SOD), you may also wish to try capping the CPU clock speed to 800 MHz (but if this helps, please report your problem here and fill out the hardware survey).

Do you have any patches, custom kernels, or other tweaks applied? If you do, does the problem occur without those applied? (We're not necessarily going to ignore bug reports from patched or tweaked systems outright, but it can make our job harder, and we do need to know what changes you have applied to judge whether or not the change might be relevant to your problem.)

I'm having no luck with the suggestions above. What information should I include with my bug report?

When reporting a problem, please include the following information if at all possible:

Full description of the problem -- "it crashes" doesn't count. How do you trigger the problem (or does it occur by itself)? What exactly happens when the problem occurs? How often does it happen?

For problems with apps or specific pieces of the system software: we'll almost certainly ask for a logcat of the event, so you'll save everyone some time by including it.

For problems involving system freezes, crashes, or SOD: if you can connect to the tablet via adb while it's "unresponsive", please provide dmesg and logcat output from that time. If you cannot, try power-cycling it while it's still plugged into USB, and provide dmesg output from immediately after the reboot, plus the contents of /proc/last_kmsg if that file exists (let us know if it doesn't).

For unexpected reboots: provide the contents of /proc/last_kmsg from after the reboot.

Congrats and thanks again Steven and the other NookieDevs, this is running very well, at least on my NC, somehow seems a little more responsive/smoother (especially when background apps/downloads are running - new WiFi tweak?) than the recent nightlies/RC's. Great job, but, there is a new nightly calling, or I've sort of been wanting to try Mateorod's AOSP, besides, my schedule is beginning to settle back down enough that I will probably try to increase my "Android Ninja" experience, so I probably won't be stable long. Keep up the great work, glad to hear that you will still be tweaking it.

Question, are your latest WiFi and/or Graphics tweaks merged yet?

NC crashing hard with clean CM10.1 install

Hi,

great to see CM10.1 on NC. I have just made a clean install on my Nook and generally impressed. Unfortunately my Nook started crashing hard, something that I never experienced before :( It seems to be correlated with Gallery application, I can reproduce crash only after I open Gallery and then return to home page. Here is what happens:

open Gallery, look at one or few pictures

go back to Home

wait a bit, one minute or so, maybe go to other app or settings

screen goes blank, navigation buttons and status bar are still visible but display area gets dark

no response to touch or nook button

after ~30 seconds Nook reboots

I managed to catch dmesg output right before reboot, attaching it here, there are two files in archive, first is dmesg output before I run gallery, second is dmesg right before it reboots. Logcat and /proc/last_kmsg are also in the archive. I could get more info if anybody wants to look at it and can tell me how to get it.

I ran CM7.2 on the same device for quite some time and had no troubles with that. CM10.1 install is from final, wiped both data and cache, no google apps installed yet, no other apps restored, virgin clean :angel: No overclocking, and no other settings changed, no patches.

Thanks,

Andy
[Nook Color Android Development] olenchenko:
I can confirm this - I have been experiencing this for a long time now but since nobody else mentioned it I thought it could be just me (although I was doing clean installs). So this problem really exists.

I cannot reproduce this, but I flash the Picassa compatible gallery app - gapps-jb-picasa-20121011-signed.zip - after GAPPS
[Nook Color Android Development] steven676:
Mmm, that's pretty spectacular -- the system basically runs out of memory and the kernel goes nuts killing things to try to keep the system alive. It looks like the 720p video codec is eating the memory, and I believe we tracked that one down to the same root cause as the Flash issues. Can you try a CM10.1 nightly from June 25 or later (EDIT: or flash the patch in the next post on top of your existing CM10.1 install) and see if the problem still happens? (That reminds me, I promised to respin the binary patch for CM10.1 stable ... I should really do that when I get a minute.)
[Nook Color Android Development] steven676:
Patch for 720p codec issues (Flash, video thumbnailing)

As promised, here's the patch fixing Flash, video thumbnailing in the Gallery app, and potentially other 720p video codec issues for the CM10.1 stable release series. (The previous one I posted works as well, but is missing a couple of other potentially useful bugfixes in libstagefright.)

Usage: flash the attached ZIP file over your CM10.1 build from recovery. CM10 users: do not flash this -- use the patch in this post instead. Note that if you're on the CM10.1 nightlies, this patch was merged and should be included in builds starting from June 25.

(Source code: https://github.com/CyanogenMod/android_frameworks_av/tree/cm-10.1.0/media/libstagefright with https://github.com/CyanogenMod/android_frameworks_av/commit/c58721cbdcbfc46f550954a1c258d9b0529e4d81 applied on top.)

A quick heads-up: CM10.1.2 was released last week (check the links in the first post), including important security fixes. (The Flash fix didn't go in and looks unlikely to go into the 10.1 stable series at this point -- you'll have to continue flashing the patch above for now.)

cm-10.1.2-encore stable vs nightly - Patch for 720p codec issues?

Thanks for that info steven676; so that patch will work for cm-10.1.2-encore stable?

What's the easiest way to tell if the patch is or isn't working on my NC?

Lastly, is it necessary or included with any of latests cm-10.1.2-encore nightlies?

:good:
[Nook Color Android Development] steven676:
Yes, it'll work for CM 10.1.2 stable (or any other CM10.1 release).

Install Flash, enable plugins in the browser, then open Flash Player Settings -- if the bug is still present, the page will lock up and you'll eventually be prompted to kill the tab.

As noted in the post with the patch, the fix should be included in CM10.1 nightlies starting with the June 25 build.

It works really well on the 1st floor, weaker on the ground floor but still makes a difference between a dropped call and being able to talk. If you adda a splitter and a 2nd aerial for the ground floor then that would sort that out. I have had to reboot it about 4-5 times in the year or so that I have had it though.

A microcell uses the internet to create a WiFi AP sized cell site. Similar in practical result to a repeater, but a repeater or amplifier just amplifies or repeats a signal from a normal cell tower.
