Working pretty well here on a 16gb class 10 card I bought today.

Tried nookie 0.5.8 first and couldn't do much.

Tried this today and the only problem I had was in the instructions you say to go to settings then dev tools...took me a bit to realize that dev tools it isn't in settings, but in the app drawer.
[Nook Color Android Development] bigted41:
so what's the fix for the small keyboard?
[Nook Color Android Development] brianf21:
Thanks for pointing that out.
[Nook Color Android Development] brianf21:
Look at the first post.
[Nook Color Android Development] nrune:
tried this image yesterday and it looks really cool, but it became really clear that I needed a faster card and that the class 4 was not going to cut it. thanks for all of the efforts on getting this going.

sent from my nookcolor using the xda app
[Nook Color Android Development] dirtygreek:
Thanks, this is great! My one main problem is with google voice. It won't continue the install after failing to pull current voicemail settings. Does anyone know what might be missing or incorrectly configured? Maybe the phone app?
[Nook Color Android Development] cnuckols1:
Anyone else having problems with the xda app force closing after you login?
[Nook Color Android Development] dirtygreek:
same question
[Nook Color Android Development] brianf21:
Adb should be good to go.
[Nook Color Android Development] brianf21:
It FCed on me as well. It seems to work well after going back in.
[Nook Color Android Development] Novarider:
Mine doesn't work. It works on stock rooted but when I check adb devices it doesn't list it as connected.
[Nook Color Android Development] wretchedlocket:
I am having problems with XDA app as well

Anyone know why I wouldn't be able to see the Button Savior app after installing it? Market shows it's installed and I can see it in /data/app folder, but it won't launch
[Nook Color Android Development] akula11:
Hope I don't sound stupid, but I can go back to stock on my Nook Color (to read the books & Magazines), and insert my Froyo on memory card to do everything else?

There is no need for me to have Eclair anymore right?

Thanks,

Brianf -- I used your (latest) image on a 2GB card and then applied the 950 OC from this thread (http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?p=10836289#post10836289). Loaded Angry Birds from the market and life is great.

But, I'm having the same issue with the SDcard's remaning storage as everyone else. Windows won't recognize it. I don't mind using ADB to push files but my question is can you tell me how to mount the "sdcard" using ADB?

Thanks!!!
[Nook Color Android Development] pauljohnson75:
Just installed and google services framework and the market both keep force closing on me. Any suggestions or fixes ? Thanks
[Nook Color Android Development] cevans59:
I think the problem with the 4th partition and Windows is a Windows thing, it shows up correctly in Kubuntu.

Add me to the list getting an FC on the XDA app.

I installed the 900 OC and can get 1747 in Quandrant, any bets on somebody hitting 2000 :p
[Nook Color Android Development] wretchedlocket:
Skip down to the Location Based Market Apps section and see if that helps.

[Nook Color Android Development] brianf21:
I believe it is a limitation with Windows. The only think I can suggest is to use dropbox.
[Nook Color Android Development] brianf21:
That was already there. The only thing I can think is to change the permissions to 644 or reburn the sdcard.
[Nook Color Android Development] cnuckols1:
Why are a lot of apps not showing up in the market? What profile is this rom using?
[Nook Color Android Development] brianf21:
With the card in, you will boot to Froyo. With the card out, you boot to your internal memory. If you have not rooted your device before doing this, it will be stock.

If you keep the internal memory stock, then you can get the in store benefits. Also, I have the nook app on Froyo so you should be able to access your books in Froyo.
[Nook Color Android Development] brianf21:
Does anyone have a link to the changes to build.prop that I think fixes this issue?
[Nook Color Android Development] Benjyp:
Just Installed it and its running pretty well! Forgive me if this is a stupid question but would it be possible to release a version with bluetooth enabled? Again my knowledge in this area is limited to what I have picked up through following various how-to's so I understand if this is not feasible.
[Nook Color Android Development] foss:
Works great! Thanks!
[Nook Color Android Development] crashdau:
Same here, but downloaded (purchased) tapatalk and everything is golden.

Separate question... Is there a way to backup your image after installing everything so if we screw something we can restore the IMG on the uSD Card with Win32 Disk Image ???

Put mine in the uSD reader but Windows (Server 2008) doesn't see anything on the card. Keeps asking to insert removeable media.
[Nook Color Android Development] john10101:
i downloaded the 4gb image and booted. it booted to froyo 2.2 once with alot of FC's, but i could not find the terminal emulator, so i rebooted. Now the only thing it does is FC i cant get to any thing to try to browse the system. ill try playing somemore after lunch. so far no luck.
[Nook Color Android Development] jtbnet:
If you used to EPartition Master to extend the 4th partition on your SDCard then you have a utility that you can also use copy the entire contents of one sdcard to another for backup...
[Nook Color Android Development] crashdau:
Thanks JT. I never used it to extend my partition. Do yu think it is too late to extend that partition? If so, I can always just make a copy of the image as you point out.
[Nook Color Android Development] taylor.fowler:
Not sure why, but to fix it, see here: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?p=10787233#post10787233
[Nook Color Android Development] brianf21:
I think this is a limitation of Windows. Please correct me if I am wrong. I think it only see the first partition. If it were working you would have to go to:

Settings>Applications>Development and uncheck USB debugging

The other option is to use DropBox
[Nook Color Android Development] indeana:
If this image was based on the 0.5.9 image, do the following mount points apply after running the built-in make partition/format partition scripts?

The microSD card image ( and by default, the base archive when built ) contains 4 partitions:

/dev/block/mmcblk1p1 : boot (fat32)

/dev/block/mmcblk1p2 : system (ext2)

/dev/block/mmcblk1p3 : data (ext3)

/dev/block/mmcblk1p4 : sdcard (fat32)
[Nook Color Android Development] brianf21:
I might be possible, I am waiting for Cicada to update his image. He got us to this point, so we have to just wait and see if he gets it working.
[Nook Color Android Development] brianf21:
Yes, those are the partitions you will end up with. The last partition is created and formated with the scripts.
[Nook Color Android Development] brianf21:
Just put up an updated image.
[Nook Color Android Development] wretchedlocket:
You can use adb to edit the build.prop (make sure you use a real text editor)

adb pull /system/build.prop

change the ro.build.fingerprint to the following:

ro.build.fingerprint=verizon/voles/sholes/sholes:2.1-update1/ESE81/29593:user/release-keys

adb push /system/build.prop

Or, if you have patience and don't mind typing on the Nook, install Root Explorer and edit the file directly. Just reboot afterward.

Or...if your computer has a memory card reader, open the file directly from the memory card and edit on your computer (this is how I did it the second time)

This worked for me and I can now see all the apps I can on my Galaxy S phone.
[Nook Color Android Development] john10101:
This has been completely unsuccessful for me. im using a 4gb adata sdcard. (class 6) I have used the 4gb image which on first boot seams to load, but with alot of FC's unable to connect to the internet, just gives me an error when attempting to enable wireless card. Also i am unable to find the terminal emulator anywhere. something seems to be off.

When i use the other image for sd cards larger then 1gb. i seem to be able to get a little further, still plunty of fc's but i can get it connected to wifi. i cant get it to sync my google account tho.

both seam very unstable to me. Im not sure if i have done something wrong. I am happly waiting the day this works for me. Keep up the great work.
[Nook Color Android Development] brianf21:
Thank you. That is what I was looking for.
[Nook Color Android Development] jtbnet:
No just download the Free Home version of EASEUS Partition Master from;

http://www.partition-tool.com/personal.htm

and put your sdcard back in windows before running EPM (else seems to not notice insertion) then you can extend Partition 4 to whatever space is left over on the sdcard and make a copy at the same time as long as ypu have 2 sdcards and 2 usb port adapters to plug them into at the same time...
[Nook Color Android Development] brianf21:
Do you have another card you could use? This is the only thing I can think of.
[Nook Color Android Development] brianf21:
Yes, you can use win32 disk image to backup the card or dd on a Linux box. Sounds like your card is not being detected. Can you test the card and the card reader on a different computer or maybe a different usb slot on the same computer?
[Nook Color Android Development] gregh77:
an you post a screen shot of how it looks when booted into customized nookie froyo? thx
[Nook Color Android Development] kbassil:
So let me see if I'm understanding this correctly... I'll essentially have my choice of two different boot configurations?:

- One from the image on the microsd card

- One from the internal harddrive (which I recieved via my rooting)

So I can throw in the sd card if I want/need flash, or I can leave it out and boot if I want access to all my old stuff?

Or am i completely misunderstanding this?
[Nook Color Android Development] brianf21:
Yes, kind of like booting to a livecd.
[Nook Color Android Development] gregh77:
with the SD card if you load different apps will they stay on the card for next time you boot from the card?

thx for all the work.

what OC rates work with the SD card?
[Nook Color Android Development] TheEditor:
I downloaded this last night, burned to 8gb Class 6. It boots great and runs nice, BUT, and there is always a BUT, I have noticed when it sleeps or I turn off the screen and I can't get it to turn back on. I eventually have to pop the SD Card, plug in the power cord and mess with the power button to get the NC to power back up. Anyone else with this or similar issue?
[Nook Color Android Development] jasoraso:
Yes, I've experienced something similar. I could fix by holding power button for ~20 seconds.

It got worse when I switched to the OC Froyo kernel. I'm back on the B&N 2.1 w/ the 1.1gzh kernel and it is very stable again. Tonight or tomorrow there should be an updated kernel for 2.2 .... looking forward to trying that.
[Nook Color Android Development] rainmaker002:
I'm having the same issue, right after initial boot even. Screen locked and i had to plug in, which rebooted the nook.
[Nook Color Android Development] brianf21:
I am not having that issue. What programs are running in background? What do you have installed?
[Nook Color Android Development] TheEditor:
Nothing other than the initial bootup and therein lies the problem. It will boot but once the screen shuts off the first time it will not come back on. No additional software installed or running. My NC runs fine on the stock 2.1 and is very responsive on the stock kernel.
[Nook Color Android Development] rainmaker002:
Ditto, this happened to me on initial boot- I can't get into the latest customized version.
[Nook Color Android Development] danbutter:
This freezing and not turning on again has happened to me a few times too.

I think you really need to let it boot for a minute as it is seemingly doing a few things in the background when the homescreen is already visible.

I was wondering if this has something to do with the wifi sleep issue, but don't figure I'll find out.

I just turned the timeout for the screen up to ten mins so it won't happen to me again. I figure if I leave it for 10 mins then I'll just turn it off.
[Nook Color Android Development] jasoraso:
I too had the never-ending sleep issue. I swapped out the uimage w/ the o/c kernel uimage from this thread:

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=925451 and it seems much more stable.

I think the dev who made the o/c kernel has resolved a few issues that made the first generation of kernels for the NC unstable.
[Nook Color Android Development] brianf21:
I was able to download it and unzip it. Are you having trouble burning it or you just don't like it? :)

[Nook Color Android Development] danbutter:
I have found this happens here and there...I just exit the program and come back to it later and the screen is then filled up by whatever proggy was the size of a phone.

No, I burned it just fine to a class 10 16gb sd card. I get as far as the sliding lock screen, but when I try to unlock things freeze up, the screen goes dark and I can't get in. I waited about 10 minutes and finally plugged it in, which rebooted the nook. Tried this twice with no luck.
[Nook Color Android Development] brianf21:
Has anyone successfully burned and used the latest image, nookie-froyo-3.img?
[Nook Color Android Development] jthatcher:
Ok, downloaded and booted great on my class 4 8gb card...

when i put it on the SD card and boot from it, it boots fine but the top left bar says i have a damaged SD card. and i cant get my pc to connect to it properly to mount as usb storage to overclock it... i get the circle of wait on the nook while trying to connect to pc
[Nook Color Android Development] johnclevenger:
I had this, but running the scripts in the OP seemed to solve it for me.
[Nook Color Android Development] gregh77:
was that using the new image? did that get rid of the SD card damaged error?

i used the anything over 1GB image and followed script. it worked. is there anything different in the froyo 3 image from this one?
[Nook Color Android Development] diaztradeinc:
Yea run scripts from op it will solve your issues. Happened to me as well. Went back to 2.1 tho, too laggy for me, praying cm7 will come soon!

Not sure what caused it.. I *was* running the froyo test 1.1ghz kernel (but limited to 1ghz through setcpu..) - so that might have been the culprit..

[Nook Color Android Development] kurtA:
Hi all,

I got my patriot 16GB class 10 card in the mail. I attempted the Nookie Froyo Custom. I burnt the image, placed it in NC, followed those 2 Terminal Emulator instructions. Booted up fine. I could not download anything from Market place. Now that is not as bad as what I got happening now. At one point I tried to shut down and boot NC back up and it just hangs with "android.." at left side.

I have burned other images and also tried stock. All boot fine the first time around, but after a reboot or 2 they all end up as what I have described before. I would also mention that I did try this with the (I think) latest nookie-froyo-3 image. Date stamped is 1/24. After second attempt of burning the image I did start getting the damaged SD card issue. I thought the 2 terminal scripts were supposed to fix this(I have no proof of this of course)

I've read every single post in every thread, but I have not heard of anyone having this issue and also nobody talking about a fix for this. Can anyone please help...I've literally tried everything except to do the SD card fix thing I read somewhere. But again I thought the latest image had the issue resolved. Any and all help is appreciated.
[Nook Color Android Development] brianf21:
I had the scripts there for the first over 1 gb image. They really doesn't fix anything. They just create the 4th partition (sdcard) using the nook and use up the rest of the space on the sdcard. So everyone will get the sdcard error until the scripts are run. By using these scripts, I can make it work on any sdcard over 1 gb.

But all of that does not help you. What I would do is to erase all the partition on the sdcard and try to reburn it. If that does not work, it might be the image or the image might not work on that card. You are the second person with 16 gb class 10 card that is having that issue.

Does it run find before running the scripts? After it boots, just let it sit there for a minute or two before pressing anything so all the processes have time to start.
[Nook Color Android Development] gregh77:
i am having alot of force close issues on almost every app i am trying to run, i reboot and say dolphin might work for like 5 minutes, then i get a force close on it. i cant get weather widgets to keep my location, i try to move widgets around and the FC. its weird. only thing i did was the 4th partition and running the 1.1 OC. any suggestions other than reburning the SD card? thx
[Nook Color Android Development] brianf21:
It might be the OC. Post this in the OC thread, the OP wanted feedback.
[Nook Color Android Development] Ordieth:
Thank You for all the hard work. This image works like a charm! Exactly what I needed for my 8GB card.

Again, thank you.
[Nook Color Android Development] kurtA:
Basically everything works up until I execute that second script "formatpart.sh" after which NC reboots and the it hangs at "android.." on the left side of the screen. Bouncing it 10 times doesn't seem to help. I have burned 3 different images and I still get at the same thing. Anyone have any other ideas... I've explained more of my setup about 2-3 posts above this one. I really want to have this working...perhaps I need to RMA my micro sd. Thanks in advance.

+1 16GB Adata Class 10 card, same exact behavior, boots once, never again. haven't tried without running the follow up scripts, but will later today and post results. This happens with the custom nookie froyo as well as original. haven't tried 0.58, was thinking about it just to see if it's a persistent issue.

Working theory, NF hates 16GB cards?
[Nook Color Android Development] danbutter:
I have the WINTEC 16GB Class 10 SDcard and can boot more than once.

The card is definitely NOT class 10 material (acts more like a 4 for write speeds), but I guess this is a case of you get what you pay for.

Anyway the image I downloaded was the anything over 1GB and I got it on the 22nd. Not sure if this one has been updated since or not. The OP would have to tell that one. If so there could be something in the image that is different and causing this.

I also notice though that you really need to give it some time to process things.

This could be my not really class 10 card too, but if you give it some time to get everything booted up it works ok.

thanks for that confirmation, I actually tried the image in the other link. I had trouble deciphering which to use from the post. I'll try the one that says for over 1GB and report back any findings. Unfortunately I have to dl these over 3g as they block multiupload here at work.
