[Nook Color General] JTNiggle:
Ya gotta love some CM goodness for the nook. I am just looking into picking one up for myself, and was kinda on the fence. Mostly because I was worked about developer support for it.

But, if Cyanogen is going to support the nook, then I know we are in good hands. As mentioned previously, this will bring even more people onto the nook community. I will definitely be picking one up next week, hope CM will be ready soon.

Nook color ftw!

Hey... I think this thing makes phone calls too!
[Nook Color General] agarber1:
I just converted to CM7 on my DROID a day or two ago. It is a nice ROM, and I love the idea behind it. The nightly builds are nice and stable, but I can't wait for some speed boosts from the RCs. I'm excited to see what CM's effect in the NC will be, but I would be perfectly content if they just get Bluetooth working, haha.
[Nook Color General] camwinnn:
Lol I've called lots with gvoice+sipdroid on nookie froyo but its pointless ATM no mic :P BT is coming (being optimistic) so hopefully we can use a headset in the future.

sent from a Nook Color using xda-app
[Nook Color General] 911jason:
The first post in this thread links to a post on the Cyanogen forums that was made by their head moderator. That's not good enough for you?
[Nook Color General] ManiacMac:
*Patiently waits for the update* :D
[Nook Color General] teknikk7:
Runnning CM 6.1 on my Evo and LOVE the speed and stability. Waiting for a stable build of CM 7. You should give it a try.
[Nook Color General] Divine_Madcat:
"The best-laid plans of mice and men often go awry"...

Just because they planned it, or even started dipping their toes in it, doesn't not mean we will actually see a viable project. I think people who have donated have fooled themselves into thinking that the shipped nooks will guarantee a CM build (akin to a bribe). Do i think there is a good chance for it? Sure. But i too will only really believe it when i see it.
[Nook Color General] KitF:
The thing is, they're not "dipping their toes in it". It's booted and running. There are only a few issues to work out, and they are being worked on as we speak.
[Nook Color General] Divine_Madcat:
Again, i am more than happy to eat crow, and would LOVE a full working build. But i hadn't seen anything committed in the nightly section (posted on the forum), nor seen anything else.

Yes, maybe i am too cynical, but even something like "booted and running" can mean alot. Nookie Froyo .5.1 "booted and ran", but was still almost useless (thankfully, .5.9 is getting there, but still not a daily driver). With all these nice new devices, will ours remain appealing enough to keep getting that "working on" coverage?
[Nook Color General] slugbug2010:
I'm assuming you are aware of the CM reputation on xda, right?
[Nook Color General] Divine_Madcat:
Yep. reputations are great. And when we actually get the work on the NC, i will continue to celebrate it. ;)
[Nook Color General] Mat Sumpter:
If you view fattire and cicada's GitHub commits (which I do nightly to stalk their progress ;)) then you'll see a lot of activity regarding Gingerbread branch of CM and the Nook.

Cicada posted yesterday saying another release was due that would be fixing DSP driver issues and this could be the first Gingerbread build we see for Nook or it could just be the DSP driver work that has been worked on ported back to Froyo.

I've never worked on a CM build but I am going to guess that the leg work for getting CM up and running on a device is the first process and then that work is merged into the main repo of CM. So having a few individuals do the build out work is the first necessary step.
[Nook Color General] Divine_Madcat:
One of my big worries is this:

If it is Moto's request, i would be very miffed at them (to the point i wouldn't buy the Bionic i was drooling over). If it is TI being slow, that is another thing all together. I guess we will have to see.

Regardless, a lack of good drivers surely wont help this project much...
[Nook Color General] aludal:
Look, D.Madcat: I'm a poor blogger and I don't want TI and/or Moto secret assassins sent to eliminate me and my blog for this slip of tongue, are you listening, TIers and Motorolans? You're all fine and fluffy, I apologize, OK?

Just kiddin'...

Seriously, TI has just revamped their "Android on OMAPZoom" project page:

https://gforge.ti.com/gf/project/omapandroid/https://gforge.ti.com/gf/project/omapandroid/, so let's hope something beyond Eclair code will show up there eventually.

As of today though, and talking about drive to Gingerbread/CM7 for NC, I'd like to stress that together with the code for activating the DSP, these developments also need:

-- freshly recompiled and optimized NEON (against OMAP3630, or maybe even more specifically -- against OMAP3621, as there is some delicate difference between SoCs);

-- better controllable and attenuated touch driver;

-- new power management subsystem;

-- 2D/3D HW assisted drivers preferably out of Honeycomb development branches for Droid 2;

-- solid I/O, memory management improvements (also snatched out of Honeycomb projects -- if possible and applicable);

-- VOME engine (donated by VisualOn to AOSP 2.3) as a new Stagefright fallback;

-- full BT support including BT audio/mic;

-- switchable USB Host/OTG for all those Webcams, and whatnot.

Lots of this stuff could possibly be "appropriated" and adapted from Droid Gingerbread project(s), so there's absolutely no reason to piss off Motorola about their lack of openness: they are in the same boat built by TI, and lots of stuff isn't finished -- or even started -- there too.

Besides, I'm sure their best brains are tightly wrapped around OMAP4430, OMAP4440 products now. Or even around that extremely snappy dual-core Snapdragon MSM8660+Adreno220 which has ALL major codecs literally etched into its silicon.

[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] wigwam12:
If I want to have push email for my main gmail account do I have to set it up as an Exchange account?

The shortest poll interval I see for any other (ie pop etc) account type is 5min

If then (to preserve battery etc) I want to switch from push to interval email is there any "harm" in using an exchange account-type for a gmail account?

My phone already syncs contacts/market etc with the main account that I have as the exchange account but want to understand the situation a little better:o
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] wigwam12:
GGGrrrrr! This morning all 4 email settings (1 x echange gmail; 1 x pop3/imap gmail; 2x hotmail) appear to have been deleted from the HTC Mail App.

I cannot add the Exchange on in again as it tells me this account has already been setup.

I tried to delete it from the Account/Sync in Settings but even after saying it is deleting it is still there [albeit syncing nothing].

Anyone suggest how I can sort this? For the time being I have added the main account as a normal gmail account [except of course now it preferentially comes via the Gmail App first!]
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] nobnut:
No idea why you lost your email settings, I personally would blame Steve Jobs.

In relation to your other issue, I don't really see the point in creating an Exchange account to sync your Gmail account (two pushes will drain your battery faster than just one).

In Settings > Accounts & Sync > Gmail you can set the sync interval for your Gmail account.
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] wigwam12:
Thanks

How can I delete the Exchange account then?

As stated I have tried to get rid of it using the "remove account" in the Settings/Sync area but it is still there.....
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] wigwam12:
Actually I have just googled it and it seems I might been to do a "factory reset" (ie start the build all over again) to get rid of it.

What I need to do first is find out if there is any way to backup my Apps (and their settings - my son would not forgive me for deleting his Angry birds pregress!)

Will search but any tips gratefully received!
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] nobnut:
No... don't factory reset.

I know you have tried this already but...

Just try again to remove the account via Settings > Accounts and Sync then select your account then look at the bottom of the screen. Do you see 'Remove Account'?

Click it ;)

If not, go to your email program, select the account you want to delete and go into Account Settings and try and delete it from there.
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] wigwam12:
Sorry I wasn't clear

I did do exactly as you said to remove the account: clicking on it in the sync settings and pressing remove (I get the warning abot losing all calendar etc etc)

I did that multiple times.

I even rebooting after doing it (as it was still there) but it is still there and still apparently syncing (green circle still there) even though all sync options were unticked.

If I click on the account (where it gives the option to adjust settings) it justs says error the Mail app has returned an error and asks me to force close (every time)

In the Main app it is not in the Accounts screen do I can't delete it from there (even though when I try to add it again it tells me error the server says this account already exists)

Hence my frustration (over a small matter I grant you but small matters can bev very irritating!)
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] nobnut:
In that case all I can suggest is:

Make sure that the account in question is not set as default (just in case this prevents you from deleting it). Choose another account and set it as default. Then try deleting.

Failing that, try going into the account settings and delete each of the individual fields and resave the 'blank' account (assuming it allows you - probably won't). If it does, then try to delete it.

I've just tried deleting my account and it worked fine.

As a last ditch attempt, if you have 'Titanium Backup', you could backup the application and data relating to Angry Birds and reinstall it following your hard reset or whatever.

PS Whenever I hard reset, bugger all happens.
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] wigwam12:
I really appreciate your continued help.

Yep sadly it WAS set as the default account but I did make the gmail (non-exchange) account the default account and try again but no difference.

If I can't find any other way I was planning to just delete the data.img file and let it rebuild it but first backup the games files and figured that would reset everything.

I could then restore from Titanium [I have a horrible feeling it will go pear-shaped!]

It would be a PITA to have to d/l all the apps again but even more irritating for the kids to lose their hard-fought game-saves!

In the meantime I got so hacked-off with it all that I have booted back into WinMo!
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] nobnut:
Ok, we're getting desperate/funky now. Try this...

Make a copy of your data.img.

Boot into Android.

Settings > Applications > Manage Applications > All Applications and select email.apk

When that opens click on the clear data and clear cache (if they are not greyed out).

Go back into email and see if that has cleared them?

If so, hoo'bloody'ray and reset your email accounts.
[G1 Android Development] michael2041:
I was considering posting this in the Q/A thread, but its not really a question about how installing roms work.

I was wondering if there were any 2.2 Blur roms, like the motoblur on the droid 2 and droid x? It's an updated, froyo toned down nicer looking blur. Are there any G1 roms like that? Can't find one... thanks in advance! I currently have Froyo For Trout, best rom ever, but I wanted a taste of blur for awhile. Any help?
[G1 Android Development] legend221:
MotoBlur is like the plague for most 99% of the people here.

That's just how it is.
[G1 Android Development] michael2041:
I know, I hate MotoBlur too but the MotoBlur on the Droid X and Droid 2 seems nice, I want to try it out. It's very scaled down and streamlined.
[G1 Android Development] michael2041:
Oh, and is the Motoblur on droid x and droid 2 a specifically made motoblur for those phones, or just a stock 2.2 motoblur?
[G1 Android Development] asb123:
The last motoblur rom was the one by jester. That was back in the 1.5 days.

The g1 is just too far behind hardware wise to pull of motoblur.
[G1 Android Development] michael2041:
Are you sure? I'm sure I've seen 2.1 roms
[G1 Android Development] PSP_Hacker:
Oh God no.... why would you want MotoBarf :S
[G1 Android Development] michael2041:
The "motoblur" on the droid x and droid 2 isn't really that disgusting ugly motoblur...its a lot different and I wanna try it out. I hate motoblur as much as the next guy, but this is pretty slick and nice
[G1 Android Development] tazzpatriot:
i have a droid x motoblur sux ass ,, its the one reason i wish i didnt get the phone ,, ididnt really know what it was lol but now i wish i was due for a upgrade
[G1 Android Development] michael2041:
It does? It looks so nice though :0 Oh well... I don't want a plain froyo rom or sense or old motoblur so i guess i'm outta luck :|
[G1 Android Development] Ace42:
Blur looks nice but that doesn't mean it functions ok:p

The G1 can't handle 2.2 blur, plus the droid(s) have much higher res+"very" different hardware that would make the roms harder to port than a rom from a htc based phone.
[G1 Android Development] saulcho009:
I'm the owner of the first phone to come with MotoBlur, the Motorola Cliq. Because of Motoblur, we got repeated delays for an update to 2.1, causes many phones to overheat, and made this phone very slow. Wouldn't recommend it on G1.
[G1 Android Development] swee08315:
Also to point out: I've rooted and updated roms for 3 different friends who all had motoblur phones (Cliq, Backflip, and Cliq XT [yes, I know it's a different type of motoblur]) all their phones where going very slow and battery life was a drain (I made a punny lol)

Many of the roms on their development forums (I had to go to modmymobile.com cause those freaks of nature aren't supported here on XDA) where just attempts to get rid of motoblur, and guess what: battery life improves to around 2-3x, their phones where no long going so slow.

BUT: I'm sure somebody can make a mock theme to make it look it.
[G1 Android Development] michael2041:
Ah, thats a good idea! I just want that theme. I like the look of the homescreen.
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] Alien7:
Hi,

this process is slowing my phone very often. It uses 65-90% of CPU on my Samsung Galaxy S. I´m bullied to terminate it, because my phone is very slow. It stops sometimes but better is to terminate it manual. Please, can you tell me, what does this thing? I wanna uninstall this, it just slows my phone. I have the latest Darky´s ROM now, it did on previous firmwares too.
[Nook Color General] xPisces:
Hey guys, I just bought my Nook Color yesterday and rooted it as well. The thing I am trying to figure out is is there a tutorial on how to get it like a tablet and put icons on the home screen and use a launcher just like any tablet running on Android? Please keep in mind I am looking for compete instructions on how to change the launcher and add icons and such because I rooted it by following the exact steps. Currently I have Soft Keys as the default launcher with the book one running under that. Thanks very much in advance!
[Nook Color General] azbarber:
I'm in the same boat. I read the threads and learned a lot, tried a few things, and asked a few questions. The problem with simply following a list of instructions is that you wouldn't really be setting it up the way you want, and that is one of the beauties of rooting.

Az
[Nook Color General] xPisces:
Well I put Zeam Launcher on it and I am pretty happy with the way it looks so far, just gotta figure out how to add icons and widgets to the pages... Also whats the ideal size for wallpaper for the nook color?
[Nook Color General] JTHolt:
I suggest looking at the screenshots. Finding looks you like. Than going to the android market and doing. No better education that doing.
[Nook Color General] urbanengine1:
Use" wallpaper set and save" (free from market) to change wallpaper, and as for placing icons on "desktop" pages, go to apps drawer and press and hold on an app. The drawer will disapear andyou will be able to place it...

Sorry for rushed answer...
[Nook Color General] xPisces:
Thanks for the replies guys I got my book perfect. The only thing is how can I remove a black bar at the top and bottom of the screen? Its behind the page indicator on the top and behind the dock on the bottom.
[Nook Color General] moesasin:
i made a complete guide on my website how to root with some different tweaks you can do:

mrm3.net
[Nook Color General] xPisces:
Thanks for the reply but there is nothing on your site saying how to remove the bars and/or to stretch the wallpaper to cover the whole screen as well as behind the dock.
[Nook Color General] xPisces:
Anyone have an idea of his to strech the wallpaper as was stated in my previous post? I really hate the black bars on top and behind the dock.
[Nook Color General] bugeyed1:
You have to get the right size wallpaper. I have lost the link to the site, but you can choose what size wallpaper to dnld & If I remember correctly, if you go to the site with the NC, it will offer the right size files by default.

Cheers,

kev

P.S. The NC screen is 1024 x 600
[Hero, G2 Touch General] ghontoroos:
Hi. I have an HTC hero from Telus. I was extremely happy with my phone's operation until I upgraded it to 2.1. This is the Telus upgrade and I have not rooted my phone (yet).

Ever since then:

* have been dropping calls

* have been losing antenna

* not able to make a call: I would have to try 2 or sometime even 3 times to be able to dial a number

* some of my text messages are not received by the recipients

I have done a hard reset after I upgraded my phone, but it did not help. I only have a total of 5 or 6 apps installed. After the hard reset, I waited before installing the apps. Even without any of the apps installed, I was still dropping calls.

My guess is that there is an issue with the baseband version that came with the new (2.1) install. Here is what I have right now:

baseband: 63.18.55.06SU_6.35.17.03

Kernel: 2.6.29-7527f009

build#: 3.36.661.1 CL199109

SW#: 3.36.661.1

Any ideas on what I can do to make things as stable as they were on 1.5? I'm guessing I will have to root my phone and install a different version on it, considering HTC or Telus won't be fixing this issue any time soon.

Does anyone have any suggestions on what I can use to make the PHONE functionality most stable? (I use my phone as a phone first and then other things). Which baseband version and which SW version? I don't have a preference between 1.5, 2.1, or 2.2 as long as it's stable.

Thanks for your help.
[Hero, G2 Touch General] wileykat:
Update your radio pal. Start with the newest, if it is not perfect, try the next one along. Google "villain rom GSM hero radio" for the links. Use btdag's noob guide in the dev section for a quality tutorial on flashing roms and radios.
[Hero, G2 Touch General] saj222:
Pretty sure the OP already has the latest and greatest radio. This radio gets the best signal strength for me with slightly more battery drain than before.

OP, where in the country do you reside?

Since I've been using 2.2 ROMs for the last few months, I suggest trying these for stability:

*AOSP ROMs*

Elelinux-6.2.0-RC0-Hero (http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=906552)

Floyo 1.2.0 (http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=784689)

An online buddy of mine (who has thoroughly tested all the ROMs) says Cronos 2.1 is a good one:

*Sense ROMs*

Cronos 2.1.4.1 Sense Eclair (http://www.cronosproject.org/forum/viewtopic.php?f=58&t=279)

Cronos 2.1.4.2 Light Eclair(http://www.cronosproject.org/forum/viewtopic.php?f=58&t=397)
[Hero, G2 Touch General] ghontoroos:
Thanks. I will pick one of the ones you suggested and root my phone this weekend. I'll report back if the problem doesn't go away.
[Hero, G2 Touch General] 1chris001:
Had the same problem as you, the solution i found is to use "WCDMA only" and not "GSM / WCDMA auto " in network mode. Works great since.

I am on Telus with their 2.1
[Hero, G2 Touch General] ghontoroos:
I was already on WCDMA preferred. Changing it to WCDMA only didn't make a difference.

I rooted last night and tried the Elelinux-6.2.0-RC0-Hero first. But really missed the feel of sense. Cronos site was down last night, so I went with Tegro-2.3 for now. I haven't upgraded the radio from the base recovery image yet. I'll wait and see how things work. Now that I am setup for rooting, I will change until I find a build that is fully operational and has no lag.

Thanks everyone.
[Hero, G2 Touch General] 1chris001:
I use HTC Hero Cronos Ginger 1.0.1 now, it's like having a new phone, everything is perfect and very very really very fast.

is it included in our ROM ( such as elelinux , cyanogen v.v.....) or it must be install in another way?
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] toolong:
Hi,

I hear that the usb chip in galaxy s supports otg. Is that how sound is implemented in the galaxy docks? I heard sound goes out via usb and one has to switch it via some android app. So is the galaxy dock housing a usb sound card? Could someone with a dock check what the dmesg messages are?

I'd like to play with OTG support, and it would be easier if the dock already does it. Does USB OTG allow charging(maybe with a custom usb cable, assuming usb gadgets get their power from usb hub)?

[XPERIA X10 Themes and Apps] mrljlamon:
okay so i just started using the universal androot temporary root and i want to remove the at&t bloatware. i made a backup of all my apks with the mybackup root apk but im kind of skeptical as if it will actually be able to put the bloatware back should i need to send my phone to at&t for any reason.

i dont want to fully root it because i like my warranty just in case.

tho im caring less and less about it as time goes

so i wanted to know if anyone has successful removed bloatware and restored any of the bloatware apps with this application.

and which ones i could safely remove no problem.

i was going thru some other threads and after looking thru about 15 pages of threads i kind of stopped .

thanks !

[myTouch 4G General] moneybagels:
Works for me (bought from market) but there's something wrong with it. It worked great at first (both Quick Race and Regular Race mode), but after a few days, every time I tried to get into Quick Race mode, it force closed. Regular Race mode still works fine. Though if I play for a while, my phone gets noticeably hotter.

I bought it when it was on sale for 99 cents though, so I'm not too mad. That was really the only reason I bought it. Haven't played it too much.
