[Nook HD, HD+ General] hirent:
First of all, you need to realize that installing any kind of aftermarket ROM on your android device will void your warranty with no manufacturer support.

Second, installing ROMs is inherently risky, since there is always the possibility of bricking your device.

Thirdly, any kind of ROMs that you see in the Android Development section are not completely stable; they are usable but there will be bugs & glitches. So all ROMs come with a caveat: use at your own risk!

That being said, here's how it works:

You will need three files; (a) SD Card Image (b) Recovery Image (c) ROM that you want to install.

For this purpose I am using CM11 as the example, the thread is here.

[1] Every Android device has a manufacturer installed recovery program; to install a custom ROM you need to have a custom recovery. This custom recovery is what allows you to make changes to your Android device.

[2] The Nook HD+ has the advantage of being able to boot from its SD card slot (kinda like a computer booting from a CD/DVD drive).

[3] Download the image files and create a bootable SD card. Copy the Recovery Image and the ROM to this SD card. You will need WinImage to create this card in a Windows computer.

[4] Insert this card into the HD+ and reboot your device. Here's the kicker, the HD+ may not boot from the SD card and may simply go to normal boot. If that happens you will have to keep repeating it. Check older threads about this issue.

[5] Once it boots from the SD Card, follow the instructions listed in the first post of that thread.

Brief summary (this is true for most devices): Create a bootable SD card, use this card to boot the device, install Custom recovery into the device, then install the ROM. Once you have a custom recovery installed, you won't ever have to use the bootable card again unless you run into some issues.

Good Luck!

For Hirent.

Hirent,

First off, I want to say thank you so much for the very detailed reply you sent my way.

I will use this with digression of course. I am aware of the warranty issues that it will cause.

The one major question I have before I dive into this project.

I am aware of the possible bugs and how it is not perfected.

Will this enable me to download and install flash player on a updated android that was suggested in this article you posted?

Or will it just work automatically after I do the project of these software installs. Another words I will be able to open chrome or factory

browser and go to NHL.com, MLB.com, NBA.com and other s and play the videos on the Nook HD+ Color after installs or no?

Thanks for the advice, help, and replies.

Karl

New Issue with SD Card 8gb, Centon

Hello,

I tried to follow the instructions on deleting partition on SD card. I also did get it wipe. But, the new issue is I am not able to go any further in the process.

I tried to read the card in my computer and now the card is not being recognized by windows on "my computer" It is H Drive.

IT was now its not. I deleted partition then was going to try to create the new partition. That was not highlighted on the partition magic software.

The article I was following was this.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fLbr1Uyr0sk

Now my SD card is not being recognize by windows 7 ultimate.

I also tried to do the right click trick on my computer then computer management. Then did click storage and then drive then so on.

However when I did that, only that screen recognizes my sd card before and after. But no other screens like my computer screen.

What do I do next with this card to continue. I was trying to follow that tutorial above then go to the windows disc 32 part.

Then drag the software over to start installing it on my nook. But, obviously I never got that far. Can you help me get the SD card to work again and tell me what I did wrong and what to do next so I can move forward to add CW & whatever android software will work well with flash. So I can use the other sites I mentioned in my other post.

If anyone can help I would appreciate it. I am stuck and not sure what to do next.

---------- Post added at 05:41 AM ---------- Previous post was at 05:33 AM ----------

Weird.

I just put the sd card in a usb card dongle that inserts the sd card into usb thumb drive and all of the sudden I see the drive on this computer now.

What should I do now?

Do I still have to go and do the windows disc 32 imager part.

Then drag and drop the software I need and drop in the card to my nook then install.

Or just drag software that I need like CM and Android and move forward with that.

Which should I do first. If it is the later part, which CM and Android should I use for the Nook color HD +?????

Thanks again for help and sorry about that first post, I swear it was it seeing it before. Weird.

Thanks, Karl

Google Play

I've followed all of the instructions and downloaded recovery, CM12 (cm-12.1-20160220-NIGHTLY-m7.zip), and gapps for 6.1. The system boots and I an navigate; however, Google play is not loading, when using the browser the content area becomes untouchable (touch screen in areas of the body of the page doesn't work), and there is not choice to set up a google account.

Any advice would be appreciated!
[Nook HD, HD+ General] digixmax:
What tablet are you having this issue with?

AFAIK currently there is no CM12 nightly build yet for the Nook HD+ ("ovation") or HD ("hummingbird"). Make sure you pick the CM build specific for your device (e.g., cm-11-20160208-NIGHTLY-ovation.zip for the Nook HD+); using a ROM build for a different device can brick your tablet.
[Nook HD, HD+ General] ummhasan:
Nook HD+ and Google Play

Thanks for your quick reply. This must be the problem. I originally installed the CM11 and Google Play did not work so I went out and found another 'walk through' via the link given to me last time and thought CM12 was the right choice.

I'll go back and reformat after getting the right gapps for CM11.
[Nook HD, HD+ General] digixmax:
For CM11 I'd suggest you use the GApps package http://opengapps.org/?api=4.4&variant=nano.
[Nook HD, HD+ General] ummhasan:
Thanks, so what I did go back and reformat the sd card and start over with the early, cm recovery ovation, cm11, gapps 4.4; however, apparently I didn't unzip and copy the early correctly because after I rebooted the hd+ after going through the wipe/install process, I got an error that the setup wizard could not start. I powered off, wiped the sd card and began again following directions very carefully making sure the MLO was copied first.

Now, it seems I have somehow bricked the device because it will not power on and has only a green light when plugged in, instead of the normal amber. Any ideas of how to get it to turn on and boot to the SD again?

EDIT:

Okay, as I stated in my edit, I got it to boot, but I'm still getting the popup "Unfortunately, Setup Wizard has sopped. Any ideas?

Thanks for your time!!!
[Nook HD, HD+ General] digixmax:
Did you do a "wipe /data & factory reset" before you flash/install the zip files of CM11 ROM and GApps?

Did the installation of the 2 zip files succeed without error messages?
[Nook HD, HD+ General] ummhasan:
I got it working after I got it to bypass the error by dragging down the menu and connecting to wifi. Once I did that I was able to set up the Google account and everything was fine thereafter. There is a bit of flickering now and then, but everything seems to be working fine now. Thanks so much for your time and help!!!

Recover Data?

Hi,

I've jut reinstalled cm11 onto my nook HD+ & realise I failed to copy a text file over before I formatted the HDD. Is it possible to recover a deleted file off the nook HDD via a PC? I've tried changing the developer option settings - Android debugging on, ADB Over Network on & connecting via USB both MTP & UMS (I think that's what they were) but when I run any of my Data Recovery programs in win7, the drive isn't recognised as an option to recover from.

Any help would be appreciated,

Thanks
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro General] mrteii:
it's annoying that you can not use sd card when the remained power comes less than 10%!

you know on wizard you can use SD function even there is only 1% power!

does anybody know how to modify the registry to resolve this?

thanks!
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro General] joannaex:
You should not be using the phone when the power is this low. The Universal needs more power than the Wizard, it has a different processor and hardware and therefore different needs.

The power consumption of your SD is always a factor and that differs depending on your capacity and brand. Why you were using the phone at 1% battery is beyond me. I do not recommend stressing it this much. Just my 2c.

Either way there is key in HKLM\Software\Drivers\VPD where the message is shown but I wasn't able to find any place to change a setting.
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro General] kchris:
at least, writing an SD card needs more power...
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro General] mrteii:
Dear,

thanks for your reply....yes 10% mean very low power.

but if possible i would like to change the number to 2% or 3%...cause i'm using a 3200 battery.
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro General] joannaex:
Ahhhh I see now. I'll try and find something... will post if I do. :D

Jesus, i was just reading the first link and its says that:

"A lithium-ion battery provides 300-500 discharge/charge cycles"

is this true, if so then my battery will be kaput after a year?
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro General] kdskamal:
on an average, it will last for almost 2 years, if used properly(like u shud nt fully drain the battery)
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro General] mrteii:
In my case, 1 year is acceptable. after one year, you can buy a new one or maybe you would change your mobile phone.
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro General] mrteii:
Dear Joan,

Thanks for your links! it's really interesting. after read it, i realize it doesn't make any sense to change the number.

Coz I'm using a 3400 nickel battery and a 1600 Lion battery. for the 3400 battery, I only need to discharge and fully charge it

once every 1-3 month!

[Galaxy Tab Pro 12.2, 10.1, 8.4 Q&A, Help & Trouble] fantasticrat:
Hi all,

I made a dumb move and installed the CM11 port for my T320 without backing up my Samsung stock firmware. (I'd post over in the appropriate thread in the development section, but I haven't posted here frequently enough to be allowed over there). I want to go back to the Samsung UI for now because I am having some troubles with CM11 ... my tablet thinks it's a phone, so I'm not getting the tablet features and app versions. Plus something is off with my screen so that some apps (Flipboard, at least) runs everything off the right side and bottom of the screen. Anyway, does anyone have an idea of how to get me back to my Samsung UI? I can't get Kies to talk to my tablet (another thing that cropped up with this CM build) so I can't get that to reflash it for me.

I have downloaded an Odin-flashable Samsung stock firmware from Australia (I'm in the US) so I'm guessing that will work, but I'd rather find an easier option before I give my tablet a globetrotting split identity disorder or something.

Please understand, I've rooted, reflashed, and even unbricked devices before, so I'm not new to this, just made a dumb mistake.
[Galaxy Tab Pro 12.2, 10.1, 8.4 Q&A, Help & Trouble] bckrupps:
I believe that is the only way to go. The good news is you can install twrp recovery now so it shouldnt be an issue again. Bad news is there isnt a flashable stock firmware that I know of yet. Im kinda hoping for cleanrom as he did a hell of a job on the note 3 and knows the system better than most.
[Galaxy Tab Pro 12.2, 10.1, 8.4 Q&A, Help & Trouble] kdkinc:
I've used Samsung Kies from my PC several time to go back to stock.:cool:

When using Kies you may have to switch your connection from MTP to the other option and of course check debug.

I went back and forth from CM11 several time plus I did what you did also except I used the New Zealand version
[Galaxy Tab Pro 12.2, 10.1, 8.4 Q&A, Help & Trouble] PewPewK:
Here's what I did to restore stock from Kies.

Plug in the tablet, open Kies, and click Tools then Firmware upgrade and initialization. Type in SM-T320, hit okay, then add your serial number.

Basically just follow the steps it asks you and make sure your tablet is in download mode. It will download the stock firmware image and flash it to the device.

My instructions might now be 100% accurate, but that's basically the process I took to restore it to factory.
[Moto X Q&A] SPACE-AGE-INC:
I've been looking but I haven't seen a tutorial of this certain task. How could I voice commands using Google now to switch between the volume profiles I have setup in my audio app?

Rather than having Tasker change the volumes within Tasker, I want Taker to select preset profiles I have setup in Audio Manager Pro.

Example: Saying Ok Google "loud volume", then it selects the profile within a.m.p. title "loud".

If there is a tutorial I could use for what i'm asking please point me in that direction.

But things now things are not really working so well, in fact I might call it weird.

1. At times, when I look at the screen, there are some very fine lines going around horizontally.

2. When I need to softreset my PDA, I need to do it many times as it will stuck at the first image and slowly fades away to totally white screen. At first i thought the PDA has hard reset itself but no (lucky). It simply boots up and fades away. Now, I need to push the stick in a dozen times to hopefully make it through the start image.

3. 'On' button doesn't respond sometimes.

All of this started at the same time till now.

I backed up and did a hard reset....same thing also.

Hopefully someone with the knowledge or experience can help me out

Thx in advance

I dial ##3424# and I can get the phone to show up with a com port, connect with CDMA, but when I click read, it says ":: failed ::" next to ESN and number. So ok I thought maybe I got to send the SPC to it first, and since the old 16 digit pw does not work for 4.3 anymore, I flash it back to 4.1.1, connect via cdma to com port, but it says fail to send to phone.

- I've tried 4.1.1, 4.1.2, 4.3, and a couple diff modem. All give same result.

- I also tried to use QPST. In QPST configuration, the target port shows enabled, com19, no phone, usb. It does not want to recognize the phone as well.

Any ideas what it could be guys? I'm suspecting this phone cannot be flashed or even used.
