Whenever my nook tries to goes to sleep, it goes into the boot image. Also the keyboard crashes every time I try and slide type. Anybody else having this issue? Besides that, I'm really diggin this ROM
[Nook Color Android Development] nismopc:
I was having AOSP keyboard force closes initially because I was installing an older gapps (march release) by error. I re-installed rom and latest gapps (August release) and have not had any issues...
[Nook Color Android Development] nismopc:
Two questions...

1. How do I update the clock/weather widget settings for Celsius/Fahrenheit?

2. Any possibility to set kernel to allow 1200 OC setting?
[Nook Color Android Development] tdm:
I used the cm10.2 kernel to build so if there's any custom kernels give them a shot....
[Nook Color Android Development] :
Are there actually custom kernels for the Nook??? Never seen them.
[Nook Color Android Development] Arbelzapf:
Not really, at least not for non-gingerbread roms.

There's this test kernel from steven676 which is probably what you are looking for:

I'm not sure about the keyboard since I don't use that keyboard but the one that I use works great and the slide typing it's very responsive, TouchPal keyboard is the one I use in all my devices. Just check it out and give it a try.

Nook Color Gummy 1.0/10-31-Nightly
[Nook Color Android Development] tdm:
4.4 is progressing nicely. Hope to have a build in a few days.
[Nook Color Android Development] Arbelzapf:
That's great news. Thank you very much
[Nook Color Android Development] :
Should be interesting to see if the claims of 4.4 being optimized for low ram devices is true.
[Nook Color Android Development] keda:
Looking forward to 4.4, still have 2 NC on hand. :)
[Nook Color Android Development] Arbelzapf:
The new Androit Runtime looks very promising as well.

If KitKat would suddenly run twice as fast while consuming less ram, we're in for some fun times on our aging e-book readers
[Nook Color Android Development] aperezdc:
Even if ART uses the same amount of memory, the speed improvement will be still a gain for modest hardware like the Nook :D (modest for today standards, of course)
[Nook Color Android Development] webyrd:
I have been running Gummy at 1200 using stevev676's kernel - no problems noticed yet
[Nook Color Android Development] newbtrigger69:
the way of the doe doe bird?

gummy was the most promising mod available for the NC and now that ive been checking and checking i've come to the conclusion that they might have stopped updates all together......so depressing.......and since xda members have almost completely givin up on the nook color. does that bode well with kit kat 4.4 development on NC? seems so to me..........to the point......GUMMY PLEASE COME BACK TO US!!! only a few more fixes to be more perfect than any rom out there. if you are providing updates came u point me to a link? :cyclops:
[Nook Color Android Development] dparrothead1:
I believe all work on 4.3 has been stopped. Next build we see will be 4.4.....patience is a virtue!:D
[Nook Color Android Development] tdm:
Yes we are working on 4.4. Be patient and stay tuned...
[Nook Color Android Development] newbtrigger69:
YAY!

YAY!!!!!!!!! :good::good::good::good::good::good::good::good:
[Nook Color Android Development] bachikho:
watting for kitkat, JB is still much slower than GB in daily use
[Nook Color Android Development] tdm:
Gummy is getting things in order they should start builds soon. And I'm also getting my ROM in order, expect maybe a week or two for that because I've got a long todo list (about 5 devices times 4 ROMs).
[Nook Color Android Development] bachikho:
waitting for kitkat...
[Nook Color Android Development] newbtrigger69:
maybe never

i hope things are moving along at least alil. but w/e went ahead and bought a nook tab, cm11 customs already popped up on it. plus alot faster and demetris kernel is sweet. hope things dont die, got my NC on hand in case. otherwise cyanogenmod is the last haven for NC updates :good:
[Nook Color Android Development] tdm:
Oh don't worry kk is coming soon. I'm curious to see if it runs better than jb. It's kinda pokey on jb.
[Nook Color Android Development] dparrothead1:
KK runs much smoother in my old Captivate and Infuse...suppose to be better on older devices, so here's hopping!!!!
[Nook Color Android Development] Arbelzapf:
Dude why are you so negative?:D

Over at CM11 WIP, a whole bunch of people are happily building KitKat already, and it runs pretty well. Once things are sorted out, the hardest part is done and it's only a matter of time and patience
[Nook Color Android Development] newbtrigger69:
well i wasnt tryin to be. and the CM 11 thread is only for advanced users. some1 who knows alil about that garbage. most users dont know any of that stuff and could not attempt a build even if they wanted too. and no1 in there is sharing. so like i said lol im ahead of the game already with the faster way more responsive nook tab that already has a custom rom out. but i am still rooting for tdm or anyone who helps with kitkat on nook color :) :highfive:
[Nook Color Android Development] mymeatb18:
I don't see it as not sharing it's just a thread as you said for advanced users and going in there talking crap is just going to take up space(grounds for flamming) if you have nothing to really to contribute. Once it's done of course they will post it up and continue to work on it.
[Nook Color Android Development] newbtrigger69:
Riiiiiigggggghhhhhhttttttt......
[Nook Color Android Development] tdm:
Started trying to get encore compiling with my own pace ROM today. Looks like my first task is to figure out uboot.

No word yet on first nightly build dates for any major ROMs.
[Nook Color Android Development] tdm:
Well I got so far as to get CM 11.0 building and installing with a few hacks. But I ran into the selinux recovery issue: the good old cwm 3.2.0.1 that I've been using forever isn't selinux compatible. So I started searching for an updated recovery and, lo and behold, the nook devs are about a week ahead of me lol.

So I guess for now I'll grab a new recovery and see where they are at next week. The nook devs are much more familiar with the device than I am, so there's no point in duplicating their work. And I'm going to be busy doing Thanksgiving with family until Monday.

Assuming that things keep progressing as they have been, we should see Gummy and my own PACE ROM sometime late next week.
[Nook Color Android Development] chinthekng:
Breathing life back into the nook. Thank you all so much. You and your team.
[Nook Color Android Development] sellers86:
Long time no see :). Gummy is running great on my encore, well about as great as 4.3 will ever run on it. Good work!
[Nook Color Android Development] mymeatb18:
I have a major issue. If I hold the tab in landscape from lock screen no problem. But if I try to wake the tab in portrait or turn the tab from landscape to portrait from lock screen it reboots the tab. Every single time. I did a clean flash, wiped data, cache, and dalvik. Flashed latest jb gapps. Md5 matches
[Nook Color Android Development] tdm:
Both gummy and cm have started nightly builds, so I see kk in the near future... :)
[Nook Color Android Development] newbtrigger69:
lol
[Nook Color Android Development] macrossmerrell:
I'm going to bet if you can get ART running smoothly vs Dalvik you'll see a nice performance boost. :highfive:

[Nook Color Android Development] newbie4ever:
System seems a lot slower than 2.7 gingerbread... Is there something I'm missing that would help speed this old nook up
[Nook Color Android Development] tdm:
Kitkat should help but to be honest gingerbread will probably always be faster than anything else, just because of its simplicity.
[Nook Color Android Development] bachikho:
waitting for kitkat on NC...
[Nook Color Android Development] newbtrigger69:
lol they got it already. but thx to a dev that i wont mention by name, nobody can have it and u must build ur own. good luck. i moved on to nook tablet. at least there they are willing to share progress of the kitkat. bugs or not. have a good one growing a beard and gettin old cuz it is highly likely u wont get it. more likely would come from cyanogenmod if anything. have fun ::highfive: plus 10.2 isnt so bad. plus gummy rom is pretty sweet unfinished as it is....
[Nook Color Android Development] tdm:
Hope I can get this going today. I have gummy 4.4 built and now I'm building a new recovery.
[Nook Color Android Development] tdm:
Okay so we got ourselves some issues...

The recovery I built seems to be unable to reboot, it just sits there and stares back at you. Worked around this by holding the power button to do a hard reset.

The system partition is not big enough to hold both the rom and gapps. Looks like the only casualty is face detector, which really shouldn't be installed anyway because there's no camera.

The screen is all funky psychedelic looking in a nasty yelllow-green snotty looking color. I assume there's a CM patch somewhere that gummy is missing.

So there's some work to do...
[Nook Color Android Development] :
Maybe if you use Banks Core Gapps, it's a little better? There are a lot of apps installed by the Gapps packages that we don't even need
[Nook Color Android Development] dparrothead1:
I have used Banks Core a lot. PA also has a core package. Like you, I prefer to choose what apps I install.
[Nook Color Android Development] newbtrigger69:
-scratch-
[Nook Color Android Development] fulanito01:
Loved this rom but it was a bit too unstable for me (random resets). It did convince me that android 4 is useable on the NC. Looking forward to the next release. Great work!
[Nook Color Android Development] geeve420:
deleted by me! Wrong thread :(
[Nook Color Android Development] meteorrock:
Keep up the great work developer. :) I would love to see some usable kitkat for the nook color.
[Nook Color Android Development] dparrothead1:
This is really odd, I have used this rom from the first posting, and I have yet to exprience a random reboot.

I am really looking forward to trying 4.4!!!
[Nook Color Android Development] mymeatb18:
Try rotating ur screen in the lockscreen
[Nook Color Android Development] dparrothead1:
Do you mean like this?
[Nook Color Android Development] douginoz:
VERY confused by posts like this in this thread. It implies that this ROM is not yet ready to be used - bugs, paritition size problems, gapps problems. Yet others claim to be running it with no problems. So is the ROM that you can download usable, or is it still being developed?

I also find it a tiny bit confusing reading posts in this 4.3 ROM thread about problems with 4.4 development of a different ROM in a different thread. I'm simply trying to find out if this ROM works, is stable, and ready to use, so the non-Gummy 4.3 chat in here is really OT and makes it that much longer to read through a bunch of posts to find answers...
[Nook Color Android Development] ryanl2299:
I read through the posts and didn't find anything too confusing. Since a lot of these custom ROMs are built off of other ones, it's all fairly relevant. In order to understand the specific post you quoted, you have to read his previous post in which he talked about a Gummy 4.4 build that he's trying to get off the ground. BTW, Gummy 4.3 sounds fairly solid, but development on it ended. At this point you might as well wait for the 4.4 build to come around.
[Nook Color Android Development] tdm:
That comment was regarding my 4.4 test build.
[Nook Color Android Development] Tybaltus Prime:
Optimized dalvik-bionic libs don't hurt much neither ;)
[Nook Color Android Development] mooch530:
Hmm... this ROM sounds promising- plus a co-worker of mine put this on his yesterday and it's smoother then mine running CM. Good check it out... thanks dev!
[Nook Color Android Development] bengalvfan:
while we wait

I have found this kitkat (4.4.2) ROM while I wait for a gummy version. This ROM has been great so far!!

I cannot post a link but if you search "nook color kit kat" it will be the top result (iamafanof's wordpress page)
[Nook Color Android Development] bachikho:

[Nook Color Android Development] Arbelzapf:
You may want to read this
[Nook Color Android Development] newbtrigger69:
uhhhhh....yeah nobody should listen to that egomaniac. don't know about a gummy rom but there are multiple cm11 encore roms out there which were released without this dudes bogus permission.:good:
[Nook Color Android Development] dparrothead1:
Yeah, I agree. I love the Gummy Rom, but I am running CM 11 I got from the net. It's running great so I don't know what all the secrecy is about. Not everyone wants to build or has the time or resources.

Waiting patiently for the Gummy Version!!:D
[Nook Color Android Development] newbtrigger69:
def would like to see a gummy. no doubt, but sense the team has been on an extremely long hiatus. i doubt it. considering i've seen them developing on other devices, im pretty sure they are over the NC. but don't quote me obviously.
[Nook Color Android Development] nismopc:
I tried the Gummy ROM and the KitKat ROM referenced in above post. They just do not run smooth enough or fast enough. It's nice to see the new look on the NOOK, but not worth the loss in performance.

CM7.2 is still the fastest running ROM for NC and it was a PITA to get it back on after installed that KIT KAT ROM. The way the guy directs you to install using CWM, etc screwed with my EMMC recovery, overwrote my TWRM and I could not get any other ROM to install w/o getting the dreaded boot loop back to recovery. The OS would not boot at all. I am not a pro rooter but consider myself knowledgeable enough to know when something isn't right. I ended up using a EMMC CWM recovery install I found on XDA, and was able to get CM7.2 re-installed as well as fix the recovery.
[Nook Color Android Development] newbtrigger69:
and of course you skipped tryin succulents rom for first try i see. cm7.2 sux the compatibility for apps is horrible. fast yes but crappy. imo.
[Nook Color Android Development] nismopc:
If that's the one on iamafanof, that is the one that fubar'd my recovery. Whatever it did, the other issue was recovery would not recognize my device as encore and I was getting the (Status 7) error as well.

If that's not the one your referring to, where is that one? I'm all but willing to test out any recommended roms.

With that being said, I have all the versions of the apps (apk) I need in CM7.2 for what I use my NC for (NetFlix, YouTube, Hulu+, Cracker, etc.), so I'm not too concerned about compatibility.
[Nook Color Android Development] newbtrigger69:
http://goo.im/devs/succulent/encore/cyanogenmod/internal. Try that. Up to u. He is a senior dev on xda. Maybe his ROM is worth trying? Since nook is pretty much impossible to brick now. I'm sure ull be fine. Like I said up to u. I've seen many people using it and they say it works fine. As well as the one u used before.
[Nook Color Android Development] dparrothead1:
Wow! I using this one and have had no problems with the recovery or the rom.
[Nook Color Android Development] dparrothead1:
Same rom as imafanof.
[Nook Color Android Development] newbtrigger69:
indeed. im not seeing anyone who has problems but you. if i knew how to develop. i might be able to help him troubleshoot. but w/e im very sry that your having problems. i mean that sincerely. but it is also known that just because you have a nook tablet doesnt mean that it is the same as the rest of the nook tablets. under the hood ya know? different specs for different nooks. maybe thats the problem. also it is not the same as imafanof's rom. though they may be similar, they are different. succulent made his rom. and imafanof made his rom. both stated specifically they both made from source. but still thx for confirming my statements.
[Nook Color Android Development] dparrothead1:
1. I'm not having any problems.

2. I believe imafanof and Succulent are the same person. Don't believe me? Look at in the build.prop and Succulent's name is on everything.

3. A Nook Tablet and Nook Color are different devices.
[Nook Color Android Development] nismopc:
Some more details for those who asked...

...I am running on emmc not SD. Haven't run from SD for years. Been on emmc pretty much ever since I bought it new.

Succulent/iamafanof 4.4 ROM ran fine. It was smooth but slow to respond. If anything was downloading in the back ground, forget any chance of performance on the thing. Major delays between actions. I did not like how it performed, so when I tried to revert back to CM7.2, that's when all 4377 broke loose.

Gummy 4.3 also ran fine, but had same or similar performance issues and hesitations. BUT, I had no issues flashing Gummy 4.3, then reverting back to CM7.2 (2.3+).

When I flashed KitKat 4.4, the link stated to use flash_recovery_encore_CWM_6.0.4.5_internal.zip and proceeded with the note: "You need to have the latest CWM/TWRP installed and install cm-11.0 from it or else you will get an error". I did not get an error when installing it. So that was not an issue. It was when I attempted to revert back to 7.2 which apparently can not be done with CM11 now that I'm thinking about it. That's when it went south. It would boot loop back to recovery no matter what I tried IF I could get a rom to show successful install. At first the install would error out with (Status 7) which from what I understood meant it couldn't recognize the device.

I reinstalled the recovery with a recovery repair image on SD from XDA member leapinlar and then everything was back to normal after that. Reinstalled CM7.2, the chosen apk's and off and running.

I'd love to see a YouTube video of a Nook "Color" running these rom's as smooth and slick as has been stated, because they definitely do not have any gains over CM7.2 from what I experienced. As much as I would like to run a newer OS, I am going to stick to a smaller package with better performance and response and long as I have the APK's for the apps I need, I am fine.

Interestingly enough, sounds like this was similar issue I was having with performance and hesitation, just different reason why...

[Nook Color Android Development] mooch530:
Just flashed this ROM... flash went well and it's working good so far. A little faster than CM...
[Nook Color Android Development] newbtrigger69:
as far as the lag on performance, have u tried tweaking the processor governor and I/O schedule? pretty sure u have tried that. but all in all i think your post is needed and informative for future flashers. :good:
[Nook Color Android Development] ryanl2299:
Yeah, almost the exact same thing happened to me, but I didn't even try to roll back to an earlier Android (just rebooted and things went sideways). Here is the thread where Leapinlar also helped me get out of the CWM boot loop moat. Not only is the method Succulent has you install CWM 6.0.4.5 a little screwy, but I believe it honestly isn't 100% compatible with the NC. But all that mess aside, I too have had serious performance issues with that CM11 featured here. I went and tried to re-install it since most of the feedback was positive plus I had very good luck with his other ROM for the Nook HD+ (anyone who has a HD+ should try it; it flies on it, especially with art enabled). Anyway, this time around I didn't even configure anything, didn't even go into the developer options. Just left everything alone and I still get lockups, crashes, even had a few random reboots out of the blue. And like you said, if an app or something is downloading then it's completely unresponsive to anything. I tired all kinds of tips like formatting the SD card, clearing the dalvik cache, etc etc, but nothing would help that train wreck. What's really strange is that when you first install CM11 it seems fine for the most part, then all the problems start creeping up. It may be that some of the apps that I've put onto it that cause some conflicts, but I would have a hard time living without them. Most are just ordinary programs like Netflix, Hulu, Nook, Kindle, Swiftkey, Titanium backup, and a few common flash games like Angry birds and crap. And besides, I had the same configuration with the vanilla CM10.2 with pretty good results.
[Nook Color Android Development] mooch530:
I went from CM 10.2 to this ROM and and this is far and away much smoother than CM. No click-wait, no lag, it works really well for me. Cheers to the developer...
[Nook Color Android Development] newbtrigger69:
well now they got cm11 nightlies up so it will only get better from here on out :) cheers :good:

The CM11 nightly's are running very smooth right now. You might want to give them a shot instead since Gummy 4.3 is no longer being worked on. I am having excellent results.

Seems to boot and run. WiFi, Sound, Gyro all work. Bluetooth turns on but I haven't been able to pair a device yet.

If others report success, I'll push the changes and add to official nightlies.

NOTE: you need a recent (6.0.4.x with blue text) CWM to flash all 4.4 based ROMs due to new SELinux commands in edify. Please consult other threads in this forum to update your recovery.

I just loaded this rom (pacman) on my nook color and it is running great. The nook is still laggy though. I guess I'm just used to my newer toys. I still will never get rid of the nook just for trying things out on. I've never run Gummy before so I might just have to give it a go.
