For anyone who doesn't want to live without automatic wi-fi shutoff when the screen goes off, use a third-party app like Llama until it gets fixed in CM 11. I had Llama do this while on stock, so when I put on CM 11, I just kept it and didn't realize the new ROM had its own setting. Llama is working flawlessly on the HD -- both to shut off and reactivate wi-fi. I double checked in my router's status that wi-fi is being shut off. If you use Llama, have it toggle airplane mode instead of wi-fi, as it works more reliably that way.

This will not work on the unofficial CM11 since I have a test built in to verify that the build is official before it will install. Verygreen just said earlier that his build may go official soon. When it does, try it again and if it works let me know and I will update the zip title to include CM11.

DIY build?

Hello Verygreen,

I'm happy and excited to see you active again! I have been building cm11 for awhile now for my other devices in my signature and I am anxious to try the NoohHD ovation. Kitkat/CM11 is working excellently!

Some questions:

Is cm11 in the official CM repo? I changed my cm10.1 build to script point at the official repos by just changing to use cm-11.0 and it attempts to build "something". Is this correct or are do you have a repo/local_manifest.xml I could use?

As per above the build went for over 2 hours before aborting with the errors below. Any fix or workaround for this?

AnTuTu v5.x crash, anyone?

Not a big deal - just curious if the problem is with my HD+ or somewhere else.

I can't get thru a run of AnTuTu v5.x without crashing. My HD+ freezes in the midst of the new 3D benchmark and then reboots. (Or I have to force a shutdown/reboot.)

I was hoping the 0917 CM11 nightly, where a dev squashed a video bug, would solve the problem. But no.

Am currently running 0923 nightly. I have the video defaults in Developer Options.

Am curious to know if you're able to get through the benchmark without crashing.

Thanks.

Titanium backup, from the play store. Also do a full backup just in case you want to revert.

worked for me. running 0917 nightly I get a score of 16976.

FWIW I've noticed a stability improvement since I moved away from the Google Now Launcher and started using Nova. Google Now almost always made the Nook crash or reboot. The tablet still stalls every now and again. But it doesn't make the whole OS crash and reboot. Can just lock up for 10 seconds and then it comes back to life. I had wondered if it was a storage issue was going to try using an SD based ROM instead of booting off the internal EMMC
[Nook HD, HD+ Android Development] PMikeP:
Thanks for letting me know you were able to run the benchmark without crashing.

I thought I was going to have to do a system wipe and reinstall, but I installed the 0925 nightly and it ran the benchmark to completion, even though I didn't see anything in the CM 11 change log about the latest nightlies correcting video problems.

FWIW, I got a score of 17300. (Hotplug governor.) I run a free app called SD Booster and have set my memory caches to 512 MB, which helps.

Two ways to do it.

Easiest is to find the Barnes and Noble apk file, copy it to your Nook, then explore down to the file and click on it.

Somewhat harder is to modify the file /system/build.prop and change Phone Model to BN NookHD+

My favorite trick for incompatible apps in general:

Install the app on a compatible device such has my Galaxy phone.

Perform a titanium backup on the compatible device.

Mount both devices on a computer via USB mass storage.

Drag & Drop the app's Titanium subfolder from the compatible device to the Titanium folder on the incompatible device.

Perform Titanium restore on the incompatible device.

Yet another method is to install it on a compatible device, and then use an app such as APK Fetcher (play store) to get the .apk. Upload that to Google drive, then install on your nook. Make sure you enable unknown sources in security.

[Nook HD, HD+ Android Development] drmarble:
I have submitted a set of changes to lzo compression to gerrit. Before I plead to get them merged I figured some testing is in order. These changes should improve the speed of the ramdisk a.k.a. zram which is enabled in this build. I use ZRAM Status (playstore) to see usage. I also use lzo compression to compress the kerel which seems to improve the boot speed by about 2 seconds. This isn't a big deal since booting takes about 34 seconds. It also makes the kernel about 400KB bigger outof 5.4MB. I'm trying to figure out how to compress the ramdisk too which should help speed up booting more.

I have also included some changes to our wifi that were sumbitted by keyodi, an early developer on the Nook Color and Tablets. My patch to improve the range on touch pressure is in here. I only see it's effect if I run the Markers drawing program from playstore (my granddaughters favorite). Other drawing programs should also be improved with it.

I have also included some unmerged changes. There is an updated sqlite which should speed some things up. A change to download_provider that can help with playstore downloading if you have done something interesting to your sdcard. There is a change to frameworks that we need to get merged to update the Nook Color which has no effect on anything else. I'm just mentioning these other changes for full disclosure. I didn't make this build special for your testing. It is what I normally build for my own device. I test many other changes to ensure that they don't break anything. Then I review them with a +1 on gerrit and tell the other developers that they don't break ovation.

I've been following this thread from the beginning so apologies if this has been covered or if these are total noob questions but:

My Nook HD+ running EMMC CM10 keeps asking me if I want to upgrade to CM11. Is it safe to do this using the CyanogenMod updates function under About Tablet in the Settings menu, or should I follow the instructions for the manual update process in this thread?

If the Settings menu update process is safe, is there anything else that needs to be done after the update has completed eg installing new Gapps or a new recovery?

Edit: OK, maybe I didn't look quite hard enough - I think the answer to my question is in digixmax' HOW TO here.
[Nook HD, HD+ Android Development] leapinlar:
It is not safe to use the CM update function. CM11 requires a new CWM and gapps. Use this guide or the dummies guide linked in my signature.

Re: testing improved zRam

Thanks for continuing to work on zRam for the HD+. (I saw your latest fixes for zRam on your Gerrit page and have been hoping someone there will verify the code so it can be incorporated into the nightlies.)

I've been using CM 11 100114 and 100214. Your latest build performs better. (Excepting some SOD's, below.)

After moving on from your first test of zRam in August to the CM 11 nightlies of late September, I groused about how my HD+ always had to restart applications when multitasking. (Five seconds or more to restart my browser.) And not even with heavy multitasking.

Now that I'm running your test build, that problem has gone away! There isn't the hesitation that the first zRam build had when switching between apps. As such, it's transparent to the user.

ZRAM Status still shows a max of 50% compression ratio (typical for compression) and approx max of 50% zRam Used ratio. I don't understand why the Used ratio doesn't ever approach 100%. Shouldn't it be able to? The highest I've seen is 60%. Is it a KitKat memory management thing? (Need to give us a way to change LMK minfree when using zRam?)

Is there an app that keeps a short term graphical history of zRam parameters so I can review them to see if I ever hit higher Used ratio?

Another strange thing I see in ZRAM Status is that when I load the system up with running apps (two aviation moving maps and a browser), the amount of Free RAM reported goes up! I'd expect it to go down. Makes me wonder if ZRAM Status is misreporting?

(When I run "free" in Terminal, the amount of free memory there does not correlate with what ZRAM status reports.)

Also, when running zRam, I expected that the system would see more than its stock 778 MB of RAM. But when I go to Settings > Apps > Running, the Used and Free RAM in the graphic at the bottom still total to 778 MB. Is this something hard coded in the OS for the HD+?

The only downside is that I've had two SOD's since flashing your build, one last night and while writing this reply this morning. (Flashed on top of CM 11 100214, with cache wipes). Whereas, I've been remarkably SOD free for the past couple of weeks with the CM 11 nightlies. But perhaps the SOD's are due to running ZRAM Status, which I only run when testing your builds? Or does the faster compression scheme cause a race condition somewhere?

When you make this gold, I expect you'll want to provide the user with a way to disable zRam in the "Memory Management" section under Performance? (As CM 10.2.1 did.)

I chased a variant of this problem around for days. I was getting it in the late September builds of CM 11 every time I opened the [useless] Download app. It turns out that in my case, it was the "nut behind the wheel."

I had been uninstalling Google "Documents" using Root App Delete. Apparently, Documents is needed for process.media to run.

---------- Post added at 07:04 AM ---------- Previous post was at 06:59 AM ----------

I remember this happening to me a while ago after installing some nightly. IIRC, the trick was to delete the cache and/or data from the Settings App. Of course, you can't do that directly from Settings if Settings crashes. IIRC, the trick to get around that was to tap and hold the Settings icon from the Recent Apps page and then click the "App info" pop up. From there, you can delete cache and data.

[Nook HD, HD+ Android Development] drmarble:
mike:

Thanks for the logcats. Nothing jumps out at me to show why the tablet was locking up. Do you get similar freezes with the non-zram builds? If you only get freezes with zram then there is some problem with my implementation. I get no freezes but I am pretty easy on it and don't run many large apps.

The zram is not configurable through settings and its never will be again. Google changed how zram is implemented and now it has to be built in at compile time and cannot be adjusted by the user. This makes it much faster but everyone is stuck with the same settings. If it ts causing sods then we shouldn't merge it into the regular builds.
