Thanks for the ROM. I have been using Amaces ROM but good to see some choices.

I hope you keep it updated with new builds going forward.

I have one Ovation and 2 Acclaim .... all running lates Amaces LNOS 10/21 ROM. THe Ovation is able to keep up .... the Acclaim I can see it choking every so often .... but these are some touch beasts that will never die.

I've had my ovation for nearly 4 years (has it really been that long?) and this might be the best ROM I've ever had on it. Only found it the other day, but so far it's fast and as smooth as you can expect. Only weird thing was getting su working, but I somehow managed that.

XCOM:EW works now!! I might never update again!
[Nook HD, HD+ Android Development] secretwolf98:
How did you get SU working?
[Nook HD, HD+ Android Development] Tight Git:
Mine works too - think I'm using an old zip flashed through recovery. Will check when I get home tonight and update post.

Edit - actually used SuperSU 2.79 - hope that helps
[Nook HD, HD+ Android Development] secretwolf98:
ok
[Nook HD, HD+ Android Development] sunami88:
I flashed the LineageOS su which gave an error, and when the tab booted up I noticed that "Manage Root" or whatever was greyed out in Developer Options. Some poking around showed me su was in /system/xbin, but it was missing exec privileges. With that fixed it started to work, but when TiBu complained that the version was wrong (I think that's normal with built-in su) I flashed the SuperSU zip from xda (can't find the link right now) just to be safe.

The SuperSU app complains that su is "in use" or somesuch, but after I restored all of my backups with TiBu (still complains), froze some built in apps, and have poked around as root over ADB (edited build.prop to remove on screen keys) I'm pretty confident it works. Managing Root in Developer Options is no longer greyed out, and will let me allow/revoke privileges.

Hope that all made sense. It's been a long day.

What is behind those notredame links? They don't seem to work for me. Is there a mirror available?
[Nook HD, HD+ Android Development] digixmax:
If you're downloading using browser on a tablet/phone, try checking the box for "request desktop site" option for your browser.
[Nook HD, HD+ Android Development] sunami88:
They don't work / never did for me from Desktop or phone. That's why I got poking around on my own.

Also, it's really poor form to just flash random zips, maybe most of all ones that claim to "get you root". Now, you're OP so obviously there should be some trust there, it just really not a good thing to do in general (for us users), especially when there's been no discussion (I'm aware of) as to why it doesn't work. Saying "oh well flash this" just seems kind of sketchy.

Since I brought it up, why doesn't LineageOS' su work on our tabs? Is it a TWRP issue or is it an issue with this specific rom? I run Lineage 14.1 on my phone and even tried using the same zip I used on it to get su working, to no avail.

P.S. I don't mean to sound disrespectful, my tab is still running like a wet dream. Seriously, best ROM I've ever had on it.

and since Im happy user of andro 7.1 on Nook HD+ :eek:eek:eek: not sure if the issue was with the root(I pressed to leave root fix every time with this image)

I am still using the "Yellow kernel" versions with f2fs - both are very smooth (I have 2 different Ovations):

Mine is 32 GB. It was 100% brand new with stock when I got this tablet. I flashed LineageOS 14.1 on it, and the size went to, 29 GB. Then I restored my stock backup, and my storage decreased again, to, 27 GB. Any suggestions?

You can start with 'df', 'cat /proc/partitions', 'ls -l /dev/block', and see if you just have some more junk with the same partition sizes, or if the ROM transpositions really shrunk something.

Can connect WIFI but cannot access internet

Appreciate your work!

I installed this on my Nook HD+, it looks very cool!

But after this done, I found a weird issue with this device which was not here before this OS upgrade: this Nook HD+ now can only connected with the wifi of my home but cannot access internet at all, while other devices (laptop, cell phones, iPad) can still access internet via the WIFI in the meanwhile.

I can see this Nook HD+ in the router setup panel and the MAC address and IP address also looks ok.

Have you ever experienced or heard of such issue?

Could you help to provide some advice for solve or diagnose this issue, please?
[Nook HD, HD+ Android Development] _Bruce:
I had this problem too. It sounds like you're using the recent ROMs and 3.0.1-0 TWRP from Amaces. They're not compatible for Ovation. I got them to work by downloading and flashing the "experimental" 3.1.1-0 TWRP into the Ovation's internal SD, then booting to that.

If you need more detail, I strongly recommend the pdf at the bottom of the first post of the following link. It's indispensable to anyone who doesn't do this regularly:

First, thank you SecretWolf98 for your excellent work on this and the Hummingbird ROMs. I'm very grateful you're helping me keep my and my family's tablets alive.

Second, when it comes time to start a 14.2 or 15.0 thread, I strongly encourage the author(s) to include the following at or near the beginning of the thread:

1. A link to the comprehensive "geriatric" guide to installing 12.1. It's still very relevant.

2. Narrowly focused links to the files necessary and compatible to make the new ROM work from the ground up (stock).

I say this because after installing CM 10.x and 11.x 4 or so years ago, I gave up on 12.x because I just didn't have time to pull together all of the information I needed to make it work. Even now, with the guide above, I still spent around 20 hours of trial and error trying different permutations of files and options before I could reliably load the ROMs I wanted. (Reading the guide twice would have cut that down a bit.) Any reasonable person working at a minimum wage job (I'm not and I don't) could have done as well to flip burgers for those 20 hours and use the proceeds to buy a new tablet...and live with the bloat that came with it.

[stepping up on soapbox]

Xda-develpers.com is a fantastic repository of information, but it's a hellish place to find it. Taking a few minutes to cobble together the links above will save other users thousands of hours of cumulative frustration, and keep the Android illuminati here focused on better things.

[Nook HD, HD+ Android Development] secretwolf98:
Download the latest, lineage-14.1-20171216-UNOFFICIAL-ovation.zip

What gapps are you using?
[Nook HD, HD+ Android Development] mexigro:
I don't remember... the same that I used when I originally rooted and flashed to Cyanogen (KitKat 4.something). I did not save any of those files so I can't say what versions they were. Also note that I originally rooted and flashed more than 2 years ago...so I suppose I should update EVERYTHING as if I just peeled the wrapper off my device?

Was hoping for a quick/easy fix :(
[Nook HD, HD+ Android Development] ST Dog:
You need to update recovery (TWRP) to properly flash newer ROMs.

Anytime you flash a new ROM you need updated gapps that properly match. KK gapps with an N ROM is a no go.

And a major version change (like 4.4 to 7.1) you should wipe data. Never dirty install such major changes.

WiFi eats battery like a fiend

Firstly: I just love this ROM, it works great except for the few inconsequential annoyances that every OS / ROM carries with it. I did use Repit https://xdaforums.com/nook-hd/development/nook-hd-repit-enlarge-data-partitions-t3503615 to enlarge my system and data partitions so that I had enough space to use a version of GAPPS that had text to speech (there are times when I want the Nook to read the books when I am multitasking or taking care of kids), otherwise standard install. One OS related annoyance (same in all ROMS I have tried) is that occasionally an app that has been granted root access needs to be restarted a couple of times until it acknowledges root ("Can't find SU"), but that is a small inconvenience (though making it go away would be great!). The real problem for me is the WiFi. Is it just my personal Nook HD+, or are more people having an issue with WiFi draining the battery incredibly quickly? With WiFi on, and the unit plugged in to charge, I still slowly lose battery charge -- the WiFi eats up charge faster than the charger puts it in. When unplugged, I lose about 1% a minute. Is it a weird ROM issue, or do I have a bad battery? Any battery check utility I've tried (please offer suggestions if you know of a good one) shows the battery as good. Without WiFi, the battery seems to have a reasonable life. Thank you in advance for any suggestions (new battery on the way just in case...).

I'm actually using the latest 3.2.1.0 that is on twrp.me - the only version I see a few posts back is 3.1.0, which is earlier than the 3.1.1 the posts says is needed. Lineage installs fine, but of course during setup the tablet freaks out and the screen flashes in and out

I've been having a problem with my wi-fi cutting out intermittently. It was happening on amace's lastest build too. I switched to this one and it's still broken.
[Nook HD, HD+ Android Development] BSH1969:
It's not just you. If I leave Wifi on, it sucks the battery dry in around 16 hours of non-use sleep time. If I turn Wifi off, I can come back a day later, and have enough battery life to still use the thing. And it's the ROM. Other ROMs I tried do not do this, but this one is the only one that runs some of the apps I want (HBO Go). On the other hand, I'm not losing more than I'm charging; I can at least leave Wifi on if it's plugged in. So I'm not quite in the same boat, but close. I've never seen a ROM eat battery the way this one does with Wifi.
[Nook HD, HD+ Android Development] ebrinkis:
Thank you, that was what I was beginning to suspect. I guess I will try Amace's ROM again to see if there was a difference. A New Battery DID NOT help. I will post back after I try it with the other ROM (even if this is not the right forum, the results are relevant to this ROM.
[Nook HD, HD+ Android Development] BSH1969:
ebrinkis, is the connector on your charger solid? I've noticed that the proprietary Nook HD charger has a tendency to loosen up. I thought my old Nook was done for, but after reading found that replacing the charger helped some people. Being cheap, my first try was to crimp the connector together better with your average needle-nose pliers. Problem solved! My Nook began charging again like it ought. Now, it seems to be getting touchy again, might have to give it a squeeze to help it make contact.

Contacts are usually binary - it works or it doesn't - but maybe see if that's not part of your problem with loosing charge while plugged in? Just a thought.

Checking in that I just updated my open Gapps to ARM / 7.1 / Pico and so far this old tablet is working great!

I have only tested serving video to my LG Smart TV via Bubble UPnP and playback has been fine. Haven't tried with any DTS or AC3 files yet. Will report back with any issues I find.

Previously running old version of Cyanogen that was installed 2+ years ago.

Did not update bootloader.

I have not tested this specific rom yet, but I have done done battery life testing on new(old) nooks. amaces Lineage OS 14.1 with pico opengapps and wifi enabled will last in standby over 8 days. Unlegacy AOSP 7.1 with MicroG and wifi on will last in standby over 10 days. I ran these tests to verify fast battery drain in Lineage, but it turns out I just forgot to configure Privacy Guard. The setups were a little different as I was not trying to test Lineage vs AOSP or Gapps vs MicroG, it was just to help determine why I was only lasting 3 days in standby.

Edit: wifi was enabled and connected to a wpa2 access point for both units during testing

Wi-fi Cutting out on public network

I also had a WiFi cutting out problem with various Andrei Măceș Lineage OS builds and ultimately had to revert back to Cyanogen v 11 (Android 4.4.4) to resolve the problem successfully. The WiFi would only cut out when I was at my gym using their public network, which was served by multiple access points. It seemed like the Nook HD would loose connectivity, then pick up another access point, loose again, and ping-pong back and forth, despite me being in the same location. It made it impossible to play streamed media. When connected to my home WiFi with a single access point on the same builds, the connection was stable without a problem.
