Aarrrggghhh!

Managed to brick my tablet updating the recovery! Now I've got to unbrick before I can play!!! GRRRRR!!!!
[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] Demetris:
Chris has work on current kernel to the point that any custom kernel is irrelevant.

If you guys need Bexus wait for emulated to be implemented and i"ll update bexus n with f2fs patches and release an L compatible version, read not soon :)
[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] chimpknowskungfu:
How would you join the partitions?
[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] chimpknowskungfu:
Gettings some crashes in settings. Running the latest nightly (0219-nightly).

If I search for the word "recent" in the settings page, and I click on "Recents Button" or any of the others like "Long press action" or "Short press action", the settings page crashes and gives me a "Unfortunately, settings has stopped" popup.

Another issue is with TWRP, when i was installing the rom and gapps, I saw a bunch of "unable to mount /data" error messages. Should these be ignored or is there some issue here? Same thing happens with the CWM recovery included in this thread.
[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] belfastraven:
going to settings, then buttons has always aused the "settings has stopped" message on the cm12 Nook Tablet roms. It does work on the Nook HD unofficial 12 roms, btw.
[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] chimpknowskungfu:
Thanks for clarifying. Much appreciated.
[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] chrmhoffmann:
Don't do this yet. You might screw up booting with the current nightlies.

And I will first do the omap4 next transition, so it might only come in a few weeks.

Chris

PS: I think that there was a thread from [MENTION=1149134]Demetris[/MENTION] to explain how to repartition.
[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] spcagigas:
OK, got back to stock (which is no good, since I was running the excellent multi-touch update...), then my card reader died, so I'm stuck!! Have to pick up a new card reader this weekend to make a new bootable SD card.
[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] jay_xander:
I'm new to ADB and have never used this before to partition. I still have the restricted amount of user space that came with the Nook originally. I tried getting into the ADB she'll, but terminal said device not recognized, and am having trouble installing the proper drivers.

Do I have to repartition to get the latest nightlies?
[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] belfastraven:
check out posts #61 and #49. I am running with latest nightly and have not had to do any re partitioning. The OP supplied a recovery which does not require authorization (#49) but suggested to someone that they not join partitions right now (#61) . When I use adb and get a "not authorized" indication, there is usually a message on the nook itself asking if I want to authorize that particular computer. If you are not getting it, perhaps use the OP's special recovery (#49)
[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] chrmhoffmann:
THE NEW NIGHTLIES (> 21st of FEB 2015) HAVE EMULATED STORAGE ENABLED. YOU LOOSE ALL YOUR DATA. MAKE SURE YOU BACKUP!!!! THE INTERNAL EMMC 1GB PARTITION IS ALSO NOT ACCESSIBLE ANYMORE. COPY THE CONTENT. THE EXTERNAL SDCARD IS NOT USED ANYMORE AS PRIMARY STORAGE. ALL APP DATA ON THE SDCARD WILL BE LOST.

BACKUP!

RE-PARTITIONING IS NOT MANDATORY. IF YOU WANT TO RECLAIM THE 1GB PARTITION (called media) YOU CAN TRY TO FOLLOW THE RE-PARTITION GUIDE:

[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] rajsris:
Does this include Feb 21 nightly, or the next one?
[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] belfastraven:
I believe it starts with Feb 22 nightly--I'm running the Feb 21 now without emulated storage. Changelogs show it coming in next nightly.
[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] chrmhoffmann:
Yeah. It should start with 22nd.

Chris
[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] Demetris:
Whats wrong with sgdisk?
[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] chrmhoffmann:
I guess nothing. Maybe that's even better. I just didn't find it and "parted" is part of CM11.

But of course we can write a better guide or even automate this somehow.

I have repartitioned, updated with feb 22nd nightly and restored using a zip file from titanium backup. Things seem to be going pretty well. In a couple of cases app data did not get restored--am investigating. Where should we be reporting bugs. e.g. I had originally reporting the buttons settings problem through the cm bug reporter--should I be reporting someplace else?

thnx again for all of the work on this.
[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] rajsris:
The Nook is definitely running smoother with f2fs and emulated storage. I noticed that the default in the kernel was set to 1ghz, instead of 1.2 GHz in all the previous nightlies. Easy to change. Thanks so much Chris for all your hard work!
[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] WnG88:
cmupdater has the option to update recovery with the rom, can this recovery update not be automatically done? just asking.
[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] chrmhoffmann:
After full wipe, also check that ROW scheduler is the default. I will fix default scheduler to ROW in the kernel, but not the overclock (OC). That's up to everybody to change that. The CM policy is that default is not to OC.

Chris
[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] chrmhoffmann:
Never tried that. Will have a look. Good point.

Chris
[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] chrmhoffmann:
Thanks. I guess this is also working fine. Thx, Demetris.

Getting "unfortunately stopped" when going to settings / buttons. Anyone else see this?

Update: Never mind, saw it a few pages back...repeated

Is there any way to enable the menu button on the button bar manually without going to button settings which is crashing?

Tablet reboots when turning on after it has been asleep for a while. I was using lock screen, am trying without lock screen. Reboots even without lock screen
[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] spcagigas:
Took longer than I thought to get back to where I started, but now have everything up and running! I had a rash of errors on the first boot after flashing TKrusse's Micro-GApps, but since then, everything has been very smooth -- so far, one crash in 30 hours. Thanks so much to Chris and Demetris and all the other devs for all their work!

[MENTION=1149134]Demetris[/MENTION] you can just make me reviewer if you submit patches.

Also you need to submit individual patches, not a massive series that is all dependent and unrelated. I can't merge this.

Chris
[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] Demetris:
Sure give me some time.

Edit:

Most of them are independant now for the others just use rebase on gerrit and you will be fine.
[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] rajsris:
For some reason, ever since doing f2fs format and emulated storage, I'm having issues with Titanium Backup

Everytime I try to do a backup it says "insufficient free storage", even though my /sdcard has over 15GB free. When I went to investigate further into the backup directory, it actually complains that the whole /sdcard is not writable. Other apps have mounted sdcard as rw, so it is just a problem with Titanium Backup.

I'm running the SDFix app I have found in the Play Store, supposedly it fixes this issue.

EDIT: After running this app and a reboot, Titanium backup works fine again. According to the app details, it modifies a configuration file, which somehow allowed Titanium Backup to work again.

You need the cm-12.0 proprietary files. You can find them on github at TheMuppets proprietary/bn or some such path.

They have changed since cm-11.0.

You can either put them in a localmanifests file or just clone the repository into vendor/bn.

Enjoy building. It works fine for me.

Hangouts Crashing

I can't make phone calls using hangouts/hangouts dialer ... I can send and receive SMS messages just fine, but as soon as I try to dial a number I get "unfortunately hangouts has stopped" ... I'm pretty sure this was working up until the March nightlies ... or until I merged the partitions. I've removed the app, cleared the cache and data for the app, no joy. Any ideas?
[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] Zippy Dufus:
Hangouts Dialer broken

Same issue. Hangout Dialer is now apparently broken in both my Nook Tablet and NookHD+ builds.

I was trying to debug why, when it was "working" in my NooKHD+ build, the sound was unintelligible. Now, it is not working at all.

What am I missing?

I am currently running CWM_6.0.4.8 with LiquidSmooth-KK-V3.2. I see I need to flash Recovery-L. But I am confused about the nightlies. Can I flash the latest nightly after getting the acclaim recovery installed or do I have to install something else first and then the nightly? And sorry, but I didn't see anything about a smaller GAPPS, is there a preferred one available.
[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] jerrygarcia4295:
Do you know if there is a fix for this? I have been using this device as a phone quite a bit ... I miss the functionality quite a bit, but I've already merged the partitions and changed to f2fs ... do any of the nightlies that will work on this structure also work w/ hangouts dialer?
[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] rajsris:
With the last couple of nightlies, I've been having lots of random reboots while the tablet is just sitting there. I'm not sure if this is related to deep sleep issues.

Ducati HD video is working fine however. Seems like that issue is now banished from our Nook Tablet!
[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] Zippy Dufus:
Nope, but on the Nook Tablet, the broken dialer is probably the result of Google's recent update to hangouts and this is a common problem on several CM12 devices as well. So I would suggest being patient as I think that it will get addressed quickly.

I'm concerned with the NookHD+ because this is an important feature to me and it had other issues with Hangouts/Dialer before this one arose. But now it has this issue as well.
[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] skepticmisfit:
if i come from, say b&n stock firmware (bricked my nook messing with flashify)

and go from that to cm12, will the f2fs formatting automatically happen? along with the emulated sd partition?
[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] Demetris:
Nope, you have to follow the guide to merge the partitions.

Then you can go with ext4 or f2fs on it.
[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] chrmhoffmann:
In fact (to be precise) you don't have to repartition. You can also just format the big partition with f2fs, but you loose access to the small partition.

Updated to latest nightly but forgot that update recovery was checked. I went into recovery and it is Cyanogen Recovery - is this the same as chrmhoffmann's ENG recovery in first post? I thought chrmhoffman's eng recovery looked like TWRP, forgetting / mixing things up?
[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] nandroid123:
This is the recovery that I used from the beginning of this thread. This recovery doesn't look like TWRP or CWM

http://goo.im/devs/chrmhoffmann/cm-12.0/acclaim/recovery-L-acclaim-20150221-ENG.img

I also tried TWRP 2.5.8.2 and CWM 6.0.4.8

And this is the pico gapps that I just tried: pa_gapps-modular-pico-5.0.1-20150221-signed.zip
[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] jerrygarcia4295:

Just downloaded the most recent nightly. And loaded it into my BNTV250A. No go !! Sluggish !! Never makes it past registration. Keyboard never comes up.

Barely gets past finding wifi, but it finally does.

Used CWM 6.0.4.8 this is the nightly: ( cm-12-20150322-NIGHTLY-acclaim.zip ) and this is the gapps: ( pa_gapps-modular-pico-5.0.1-20150315-signed.zip )

Is anyone actually testing these nightlies ?? If they are I sure would like to know how ?? Exact model of nook tablet. The prep and mods needed to get this to work. Please list the exact gapps you are using to make it work.

I am currently running CM11 and had no problems installing.

Which cm11 build, recovery and (most importantly) bootloader are you using? I'm hoping to refresh my bootloader without too much pain.
[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] rajsris:
I do think the lag issues are present. However, at the point, the main CM12 branch itself has a bunch of bugs, upstream from our device.

If you load up more than a few apps beyond the gapps, the device will definitely lag a lot.

Hi Chris

I'm having a heck of a time getting CM12 to run right. Been trying a long time on my 8gb BNTV250A without much luck.

So I decided to try it on my 16gb BNTV250. Actually it worked first try. I was so excited that I immediately posted it here.

Then I rebooted it and it just sat there on the boot animation ??? I had to restore the tablet back to stock before it would work again.

What would make that happen ??

So now here I sit afraid to shut it off.

So I really don't have a clue to what is going on here. Maybe you have some ideas for me ?

Thanks
[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] nandroid123:
Ok Chris

I have another update on the 16gb CM12 saga.

After I got the nook running on CM12 again I tried the update feature and loaded the latest nightly.

Then it installed with the internal recovery. It did it so quick that I didn't see which recovery it was. Pretty sure it was your eng one.

Then it auto re-booted and I crossed my fingers. It came up and was running.

So the very next thing I did a CWM backup.

Now the nook will power down and reboot, at least several times now.

All seem to be running smoothly. Although last night I tried to reply to your post with the CM12 nook and the keyboard kept going down

and I wasn't successful. Maybe the newest nightly addressed that problem.

But.... what I really want to know is WHY was I not able to get CM12 running on my 8gb nook tablet ??

Anyway glad I tried the 16gb tablet and it's working good so far.

[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] JoshReuben:
My 8gb tablet is nearly a paperweight. Can boot into recovery, and that's it. When my gumption returns, will try to return to CM11/4.4.4 and hopefully stick with that.
[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] nandroid123:
Josh you didn't to a backup of your nook before you tried this ? Any backup of a 8gb nook should get it back to stock. Also there is a file called repart.img on ray waldo's site that will get it back to stock. I was always able to to run a recovery from a bootable sd card ??

I have my 16gb nook tablet running cm12 now fine. I never could get the 8gb model to run it correctly.

I wonder why the devs haven't noticed this ?
[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] champ1919:
I had it running on my 8 gig, just not with f2fs. I'm too afraid to pull the trigger on that to see if it fixes the lag after gapps gets put on it. Maybe next month.

First off, to all the amazing devs working on this, thank you! This old, crappy tablet is still useful, and for that I'm grateful.

I have CM12 running, but I was wondering if there will be a noob guide to repartitioning and switching over to f2fs. I'd love to do this, but my technical savvy is lacking. I'd be so grateful if some wonderful person can do this.

Either way, thank you again for all the work you guys have put in to keep this from being a paperweight.

Instead of blasting the only devs for this tablet, spend that time pulling and posting logs (or smashing the thank you button on their posts).

I've got two 8 gigs that cm12 loaded on. Im just waiting for a milestone or stable before pulling the f2fs trigger and ditching cm11 all together. Maybe mine are different from yours though, because I could never get cm10.2 to flash fully.

Anyways, pull a log and help rather than whine. Remember, they aren't getting paid to help you.

Rant over.
