Thanks for your help. Actually I've just been testing--I don't use the app and prefer CM for other reasons. however, for [MENTION=7223311]theoneandonlybrooks[/MENTION], I can confirm that the latest (4.52, I think) apk runs fine on AOSP. The 4.0.2.28 is fine on the cm13 from 3/14. (on hummingbird--should be same for ovation).
[Nook HD, HD+ Android Development] neutronjeff:
Does that version of the Nook app install from the Play store or does it still have to be side loaded?
[Nook HD, HD+ Android Development] belfastraven:
I have found that nook app will no longer install on these devices from the Play store, -so you need to get it from one of the apk mirrors. You can download it through chrome or whatever browser you are using. If you just search for "nook apk" you will find several versions .... the latest is at apkdler.com, I believe, and the 4.0.2.28 was at apkmirror.com but I'm sure they are at other sites, too.
[Nook HD, HD+ Android Development] long2ski:
What seemed to work for me since the nook app can't be downloaded directly is to download from play store on my phone then extract the apk, send it to my drive folder, then install it that way. It seems to be working for me anyway. I often don't trust the apk's out there on most of the other sites.
[Nook HD, HD+ Android Development] neonleon29:
This is my first attempt at Marshmallow. I was able to install the ROM, Open GApps Nano package and TWRP. I'm sure this is a stupid question, but how do you install Google Play Store? Do you need to sideload it from a website like apk mirror?
[Nook HD, HD+ Android Development] belfastraven:
If the gapps package installed properly the play store is already installed. Are you sure it isn't there?
[Nook HD, HD+ Android Development] neonleon29:
I don't see it. When I go into the app drawer, I have 13 apps and nothing from Google. Some of the apps are Browser, Calculator, Calendar, etc. Should I try reflashing it?
[Nook HD, HD+ Android Development] ipdev:
Play Store install is part of gapps. If it isn't installed, try reinstalling gapps.

It seems a lot of people are having different issues with open gapps. (Across devices.) Try to find an older version of opengapps, or a different version of gapps altogether.

I have been installing open_gapps-arm-6.0-pico-20160220. Seems to be working for me.
[Nook HD, HD+ Android Development] belfastraven:
First, make sure you have the correct version of open gapps--the one for arm for android 6 (nano will be fine). Do a factory reset in the twrp recovery, then do the following

flash the cm13 rom,

flash gapps,

reboot.

When you tell it to flash the rom, it will ask you if you want to add another zip, and you can add the gapps. DON'T do anything in between flashing those two zips. Watch what happens--after you flash gapps you should get a message that it is installed. Then, you should reboot. DON'T wipe anything. You will not have to install the play store if the install is successful--it, and some other google programs ,will be available for you. Let us know when you succeed.

Flashing my CM13 builds get me stuck on cyanoboot

Hello, I am fairly new to building Cyanogenmod. I have been working on building CM13 for ovation recently and finally got my first successful build yesterday. I am building from airend's repos. I tried flashing my build, but the nook tablet gets stuck on cyanoboot screen.

I have installed and made a backup of a functional CM13 zip that I found on University of Notre Dame cloud storage, which I believe is where airend posts his CM13 builds.

So, I am not totally screwed since I can restore my previous functional ROM via TWRP 3.0, but I would like to flash my own builds without this cyanoboot bug.

Does anyone have ideas as to how to fix this?
[Nook HD, HD+ Android Development] Zippy Dufus:
Me too!

My last two build attempts (03/15, 03/16) have this problem.

I'm glad that it is not just me! :confused:

Still investigating ...
[Nook HD, HD+ Android Development] granny smith:
I am trying to install gapps on the latest AOSP for hummingbird. I am coming from CM11 and wipe everything before flashing - system, data, cache, dalvic cache. I have TWRP 2.8.7.5. I have the same problem as neonleon29. I tried flashing the rom and gapps( latest pico and nano and also pico 20160220 that ipdev recommended) at the same time. TWRP shows that the gapps package was installed but once the rom loads, the gapps aren't there. I also tried going back into TWRP and flashing the gapps again and don't clear the cache or dalvic cache. When I do this, the gapps are installed, but I have constant errors about the set up wizard and google play services. I haven't tried CM13.
[Nook HD, HD+ Android Development] neonleon29:
Thanks for the reply. I downloaded the opengapps you listed and will try it if belfastraven's method doesn't work.

Thanks for the suggestion. I will try this tonight. Just for reference, this is how I currently did it. I'm coming from CM 11.0.

1) Unzipped TWRP 2.8.7.5 and flashed the image using Flashify.

2) In TWRP, went to the advanced wipe and wiped Cache, Dalvik, System, and Data.

3) Flashed latest AOSP version.

4) Flashed open gapps versions from March (pico 3/12 & nano 3/15)

5) Wiped cache and dalvik

6) Reboot

7) While booting, there is an Android logo and then it show apps optimizing. Eventually it takes me to the home screen. It doesn't ask me to input any Google information like it did on CM 11.0. Everything seems to load fine, but there are no Google apps or Google Play Store.

If anything looks wrong, please let me know. Hmm, I did notice you mentioned not to wipe anything after GApps install. Maybe that is my problem wiping Cache and Dalvik after GApps have installed. I will try it again without wiping those. Thanks again.
[Nook HD, HD+ Android Development] belfastraven:
I believe that sometimes when you wipe data, rather than just doing a factory reset, you need to reboot to recovery again before flashing everything--TWRP actually tells you that, as I recall says something llike you MAY have to reboot recovery...( I think) That has worked for me in the past. If you try doing the same thing I suggested to neonleon29

--that is dooinga factory reset, then flashing the rom and gapps I believe things will work for you--however, when I installed AOSP on hummingbird, I too, got errors from the setup wizard. If you are able to get into settings by pulling down the sesttings panel from the notification area, you can disable setup wizard by going to the "apps" setting, going to the menu in the upper right hand corner and clicking on system, and then disabling the setup wizard app....

---------- Post added at 09:14 PM ---------- Previous post was at 09:10 PM ----------

Coming from another version e.g. 11, you really should do a factory reset before you flash. Then using flashify should be fine, but absoluely don't wipe after installing the rom Or after installing gapps--OK?

[MENTION=7350242]Aelfwin1996[/MENTION] , [MENTION=3651088]Zippy Dufus[/MENTION] I will try a build right now (on hummingbird) and let you know what happens later. I think I just deleted .ccache and did a make clean so it will take me an hour or so to build- I should be able to let you know later this evening. Are you installing with TWRP 3.0.0-0?
[Nook HD, HD+ Android Development] Uldiniad:
hey [MENTION=5672278]belfastraven[/MENTION],

yeah, I am installing from TWRP 3.0. And thanks for trying to flash your build, it will be good to see if others get to flash their builds and get past the cyanoboot screen. I wonder if we need to use the TWRP 2.8.7.5 zip that Andrei Maces (@amaces) has on notredame app box under ovation.
[Nook HD, HD+ Android Development] belfastraven:
I , too, am stuck on that screen--I just flashed back to the 3./14 build from amaces, but I know I actually succeeded in flashing my own rom on the 14th, also, so whatever happened has happened in the past couple of days. I've been looking at the nightly changelogs to see what might have caused this. I'lll check changes on airend, too, but I think we should file a bug report, here. I'll do that now.

I am using the twrp 3.0.0-0 recovery , and have not had to use any other for any CM13 build.

I note that there was a problem with the latest acclaim stable build on 3/16--

HE CURRENT STABLE RELEASE AVAILABLE HAS AN ISSUE AND MUST NOT BE FLASHED. DO NOT FLASH cm-13.0-20160316-SNAPSHOT-ZNH0EAO1QA-acclaim.zip

so maybe whatever is happening is affecting more than us.
[Nook HD, HD+ Android Development] Uldiniad:
thanks for reporting back. it is good to know that the issue seems to be common. I have only flashed amaces' builds on my tablet, so I won't worry about other builds for now. I only want to try building and flashing my own.
[Nook HD, HD+ Android Development] belfastraven:
[MENTION=7350242]Aelfwin1996[/MENTION], [MENTION=3651088]Zippy Dufus[/MENTION] just got this back from amaces:

Should be fixed; manifest updated due to change in vendor/ti blobs. Clean & re-sync (--force may be needed).

I actually just now re-inited and resynced (I didn't erase everything--just wanted to make sure I got the updated manifest--but you probably can just synch --force-sync) and then I deleted my .ccache and did a make clean before building. I'll let you know if this fixes the problem.
[Nook HD, HD+ Android Development] neonleon29:
Thanks belfastraven! Doing the factory reset in TWRP, then installing AOSP followed by open GApps and not wiping cache/dalvik cache seems to have done the trick. Appreciate the help.

I had a similar problem. Try doing just a factory reset in TWRP. After that, install your Rom and then your GApps without wiping anything in between flashes. After they finish installing, just REBOOT without wiping cache/dalvik cache. Hope it works for you. Forgot to mention I'm using ovation.
[Nook HD, HD+ Android Development] belfastraven:
[MENTION=7350242]Aelfwin1996[/MENTION] , [MENTION=3651088]Zippy Dufus[/MENTION]

response to bug report from amaces:

"Should be fixed; manifest updated due to change in vendor/ti blobs. Clean & re-sync (--force may be needed)."

I actually just repo inited (without deleting buildfiles--just to make sure I have a good manifest), repo synced --force-sync, deleted .ccache, did a make clean, and then my normal make System booted just fine...so I think we are OK now.

Have fun..
[Nook HD, HD+ Android Development] Zippy Dufus:
Confirmed. 03/18 is working fine.

Thanks.
[Nook HD, HD+ Android Development] Uldiniad:
ok good to know, will make another build today and try flashing too. will report back later. Thanks [MENTION=4473900]amaces[/MENTION] and [MENTION=5672278]belfastraven[/MENTION] for your help
[Nook HD, HD+ Android Development] granny smith:
Thanks for the help belfastraven, neonleon29, and ipdev. Doing the factory reset and the flashing the aosp rom and pico gapps worked perfectly. The setup wizard screen worked and the playstore was there in the app drawer.
[Nook HD, HD+ Android Development] plissk3n:
Awesome to get updates for this awesome tablet!

I was on CM with Android 4.4 and decided to update because it was super slow.

I flashed cm_ovation-ota-MMB29V.160314 using NookHDplus-bootable-CWM-6046-for-emmc-BOOTFILES-rev0-(07.13.14).

For the GApps I flashed open_gapps-arm-6.0-nano-20160318.

I had some problems because I used a 32GB card and the guide I used stated to allocate all of it to the partition instead of less than 16GB. Therefore I ended up with restarting and push and pull the card a lot from and into the tablet. After formating the card with the right size it worked.

BUT:

Somehow my Nook cannot turn on WiFi, the MAC address is also weird, it's 02:00:00:00:00:00 which I think is highly unlikly.

Can somebody hint me in the right direction? Is this error known?

Cheers!
[Nook HD, HD+ Android Development] belfastraven:
That mac address error was indeed known, but I believe it had already been fixed in the 3/14 build. What internal recovery are you using now? I would flash the internal twrp 3.0.0-0 zip for ovation from here

then using it, do a factory reset, then flash the rom and gapps (don't do any wiping between or after) and reboot. Let us know if you still have a problem.
[Nook HD, HD+ Android Development] bhudson:
I have the same problem with the MAC address on both the std and experimental build. Had to go to AOSP. Did a factory reset with TWRP3.
[Nook HD, HD+ Android Development] belfastraven:
what were you running before you flashed the 3/14 or 3/15 cm builds? I just flashed back to cm 3/14 hummingbird and I have no wifi problem. Is anyone here succesfully running amaces 3/14 or 3/15(in experimental) ovation builds? If many people have this problem, someone should submit a bug report and get of logcat. (I don't have an HD+ s and it's not happening for me on hummingbird --)
[Nook HD, HD+ Android Development] games906:
Running 3/14 just fine here
[Nook HD, HD+ Android Development] BultoPaco:
I have been running 3/14 on my hummingbird for a few days - smooth as silk. Saw your post and loaded it up on my Ovation. WiFi connected with the first boot - no problems.
[Nook HD, HD+ Android Development] ipdev:
Was running ovation 314. Dirty flashed 315, no problems. Wiped and installed clean. WiFi works. Setup wizard worked. Gapps works.
[Nook HD, HD+ Android Development] softs2005:
I also have wifi issue, I direct comes from 4.4.4 rom, only AOSP can turn on wifi.

using twrp 3.0

---------- Post added at 06:45 AM ---------- Previous post was at 06:35 AM ----------

updated my status, after I flash again from AOSP to CM, wifi comes to normal. I think it have something related to the pre ROM.
[Nook HD, HD+ Android Development] plissk3n:
Wow thanks for the replies! I got the WLAN do work now :)

I was using TWRP 2.8.7.5 earlier, I updated to TWRP 3.0.0.0, installed CM3/14, no WLAN.

Than I did a full reset (Dalvik, Cache, System, Internal SD) installed AOSP and GApp. WLAN was working. Than again a factory reset and installed CM3/14 and GApps. Now WLAN works there too :)

Couldn't be happier.
[Nook HD, HD+ Android Development] Uldiniad:
hey, I am currently running the latest CM13 build from airend. I have successfully built CM13 myself, but when I flashed my build yesterday (which finally got past the cyanoboot screen [MENTION=3651088]Zippy Dufus[/MENTION] [MENTION=5672278]belfastraven[/MENTION]), I too ran into the no wifi issue and having a strange mac address.
[Nook HD, HD+ Android Development] belfastraven:
Hmm--it seems like some people using amaces builds are fine and others are having difficulties, and you are now having difficulties after a build. I'll submit a bug report and ask amaces to check the last couple of pages of thread posts, but can you get a logcat? IO have been running a 3/18 that I built with no problem, and have gone back and forth to the 3/14 with no problem. A logcat would help, I think.
[Nook HD, HD+ Android Development] Uldiniad:
I'll try setting it up again with my newest build and logcat if I run into issues. Will report back soonest tomorrow I think.

Fixed itself after flashing my 19/03 build.
[Nook HD, HD+ Android Development] te-ha:
Thx , this did the trick for me !
[Nook HD, HD+ Android Development] neutronjeff:
Hi are these new successful builds posted somewhere?
[Nook HD, HD+ Android Development] belfastraven:
The link is in the first paragraph of the first paragraph of this thread. Your device folder ( hummingbird or ovation) will have roms and recoveries and so does the experimental folder..
[Nook HD, HD+ Android Development] neutronjeff:
Right, for 08,14&15 March builds. The discussion of the last page or so send to be about more recent ones?
[Nook HD, HD+ Android Development] belfastraven:
Ah--I understand your confusion. Some of us are building , too --we often share our experiences with the builds. We try to help one another and don't like to "bug" report until we're pretty sure that WE are not our problem :)
[Nook HD, HD+ Android Development] TeutonJon78:
Are you guys using the official TWRP 3.0 images, or using amaces version for his box storage?
[Nook HD, HD+ Android Development] ms2003:
As my solution, first install AOSP, after check wifi works, then install CM13 and don't do any wipe, then wifi also works in CM13.
[Nook HD, HD+ Android Development] belfastraven:
I've always used the one from the box folder, unless I build one myself.

Response to the bug report from amaces:

"While we moved fixmac insmod to init, calibrator still tries to use it for plt autocalibrate (first time NVS generation). We could stop using calibrator altogether for the MAC address update, but having calibrated NVS per device is probably more important. For now, I've replaced toybox with a prebuilt version where insmod does work with older kernels. This issue only affects people who have never installed one of my CM12.1 or MM ROMs (the actual NVS file lives in /rom, and survives across installs).

If this is your case, and don't want to wait till the next builds,

you can simply copy https://github.com/airend/android_device_bn_common/raw/mm-13/prebuilt/bin/toybox to /system/bin/toybox (making /system rw/adb remount needed).

The proper fix would be to support the more modern module loading, which doesn't break toybox's insmod, but that backporting may, or may not be possible."

Some people have discovered that installing AOSP or wiping system before installing the new CM rom will also solve the problem.

I' ve been working on improving the sd card recoveries (with the OK of amaces :) )from http://xdaforums.com/nook-hd/development/boot-sd-external-recoveries-twrp-2-8-3-t3314870, and need an ovation tester or two. I don't have an HD+ and so am a little wary of releasing these publicly until some one can test them for me.

I have fixed a few menu issues, e.g. the correct message about which recovery you chose will now come up. I increased the amount of time you have to press the n key before the recovery defaults to TWRP (3.0.0-0) , and I have compiled a new version of TWRP (3.0.0-0). THe older TWRP and CWM recoveries are the same: be aware that with CWM, if you have formatted data/and or cache with f2fs, CWM will throw off error messages that it cannot mount those partitions, (or wipe them), but you could still use it to install recoveries or zips.

the necessary files are available in two formats -

1.-a zip of a directory containing seven files. You need a fat32-partitioned and marked-bootable empty sdcard on which you copy the MLO file first, and than the remaining files in any order. You can then add whatever installation files you want to play with.

2. -A zip of an .img file, which can be written to any unpartitioned card which is 4G or larger. (I understand that this .imb is necessary for mac people, but it also works for me from UBUNTU)

The Nook HD hummingbird version of this works fine for me.

If you want to test for me, you can reply here and I will PM you the link. I only need one or two intrepid volunteers.

Hi All I happy to say I installed MM on my nook HD+ installed AOSP_Ovation_ota-MMB29V.100314 and that installed ok and I can connect to WIFI with out issue. The problem I tried 2 GAPPS 1st tk_gapps-modular-pico-5.1.1-20150920-signed, that expected not to work and second gapps i tried was A-GAPPS 6.0.1_18022016_4.1 and this fails during installation.

Can some one help and point me to a correct gapps to down load and install.

I am using CWM v6.0.2.8 could this version of CWM be the problem?

The error I get installing GAPPS is:

If it helps this is the error:

E: Error in /emmc/0/Download/A-GAPPS 6.0.1_18022016_4.1.zip

(Status 7)

Installation Aborted

I downloaded and re-installed rom and gapps, its called "Neo-Modified-open-gapps-arm-6.0-nano-20160302" search for it in www.androidfilehost.com seemed to installed alot of extra stuff not needed for the nook

I'd be glad to test on my hd+. My daughter has borrowed my nook till the end of this week which is running amaces latest cm version and associated 2.x.x recovery. If you don't get your needed volunteers by then, let me know.
[Nook HD, HD+ Android Development] ajislav:
Use nano or Pico gapps from opengapps.org. if that does not help, try to install amaces' TWRP using Flashify (from Play store or elsewhere) and retry with TWRP
[Nook HD, HD+ Android Development] pvaldeben:
Thanks the nano gasps worked.

Now I realized I titanium. Backup cannot get root. .

I installed the AOSP version. Of MM should I install the Cm version to get root access?

Or can I flash something to get root access.
[Nook HD, HD+ Android Development] rholm:
Flash SuperSU in recovery. With CM you can enable root, but still need to install SuperSU.

Cheers,

[Nook HD, HD+ Android Development] neonleon29:
I normally use CM based ROMs but am trying the AOSP ROM for the cast feature. Because this is my first time using AOSP, I'm wondering if the wallpaper can be changed. Right now, the wallpaper is a green leaf. When I go to Display>Wallpaper, there is one other wallpaper showing, but if I click on it and then click set wallpaper, nothing happens. Is this because I need to install exposed to customize the ROM?
[Nook HD, HD+ Android Development] belfastraven:
On my hummingbird, (should be the same on ovation) If I go to a home screen and long press in the middle of the scfreen, I get the ability to configure wallpapers, widgets and settings (at the bottom of the screen) clicking on wallpapers gives several options. Try that...
[Nook HD, HD+ Android Development] gwisch:
[MENTION=3245036]rholm[/MENTION]: Are you sure this is correct?

I am fairly certain that whenever I activated Root in the settings, I had Root. Installing SuperSU was on top.

Now I get no root, no matter what I set the "Root" settings to. I am fairly certain that installing SuperSU will not change this situation.
[Nook HD, HD+ Android Development] ajislav:
Did you try rebooting in between making the change in settings?
[Nook HD, HD+ Android Development] neonleon29:
I tried long pressing on the home screen and was able to get the wallpaper options. When I select regular wallpapers, I see my leaf wallpaper filling the whole screen and a small box at the bottom showing another wallpaper. When I click on the other wallpaper, nothing happens. Then I set the wallpaper and it just takes me back to my home screen with the leaf wallpaper. But I am able to change the wallpaper to a live wallpaper without a problem, so not sure what is really going on.

Another thing I tried was booting into TWRP to wipe cache/dalvik cache. When I rebooted, it showed 57 apps optimizing instead of the 80 that optimized when I originally installed the GApps. Does this matter? I still have Google Play. And it didn't help with the wallpaper. Maybe the wallpaper I'm seeing doesn't really exist and the HD+ only has the leaf wallpaper. And once again, thanks for your help.
[Nook HD, HD+ Android Development] gwisch:
Yes, just to make certain. But a reboot has never been required before.

So far when you activated root, you had root.
[Nook HD, HD+ Android Development] rholm:
I didn't see the root setting under developer settings. I switched to CM, but had to install SuperSU to get root for TB. Is there a better way?
