I tried Customized Froyo 0.5.9 SD for the first time today. Unfortunately, I have similar issues with Market. It's downloading apps forever. Sometimes I see account authorization error scrolling by. YouTube is not working, just like Flash in the Browser.

If this will help, here is my setup: I am using 4GB class 4 on non-rooted nook 1.1.0. Burned using win32diskimager. No additional steps performed except described in the first post of this thread. Only tried to clear cache but no improvement.

Thanks for all your effort.
[Nook Color Android Development] daemonfly:
For the "not finding apps" issue some are having, perhaps the MarketEnabler app could be a fix (Google filters results depending on device/location/provider/etc..).

(Don't have an NC yet :( , perhaps this morning, a semi-local Walmart says it has some in stock :D)
[Nook Color Android Development] molesaied88:
anychance of a .6.7 version of this?
[Nook Color Android Development] brianf21:
I plan on doing it before the end of the week.

awesome cant wait!!

You are the man. Thanks for your work.
[Nook Color Android Development] aztigen22:
Thank you for this Brian!! you saved me from depression.. yesterday, i flashed my nook with a 6.7 froyo to emmc.first it worked fine,but after i tried to install CWR to internal and rebooted, it didnt turn on again, i flashed my NC with the same 6.7 again through CWR ''in SD'' and it cant boot. i even tried to ''wipe'' eveything. now im running you Froyo in SD and its ok, but how can i flash Your froyo to emmc now? or get back to stock NC that can boot even without SD??:confused: any ideas??----- have already got back to 1.0.1 stock..

anyway, i find your NookieFroyo really great! minimal, removed the phone etc, added the ones needed, market etc...but i noticed just like with the others that i can access the market and see apps, however, i cant download it..even if it says that my app will be downloaded..then i waited for 10mins still no response. you cant also see apps in the ''my apps'' area, or downloads area.. when this is fixed, i still would like to flash your nookiefroyo unto the emmc.. i was wondering if i could create an image for this froyo's system and boot files? and maybe DD it unto the NC's system and boot folders?

Any suggestions??
[Nook Color Android Development] xboxexpert:
so has anyone figured out FLASH working yet?
[Nook Color Android Development] danbutter:
With .5.9?

Works for me using the froyo 1000 kernel.

Both stock browser and dolphin HD.

Embedded youtube vids, grooveshark widgets. I guess that is about all I have tried on the NC.

[Nook Color Android Development] danbutter:
So what did you include for us this time?

The first post doesn't say anymore what extra stuff is in the customization.
[Nook Color Android Development] xboxexpert:
Have you fixed the charging issue. That the major thing that's pissing me off about this rom. I try and charge it and it doesn't charge or it charges slowwwww.
[Nook Color Android Development] brianf21:
@danbutter

Same as the others, I don't think I am allowed to pass out some of the packages with the image so I am trying to avoid writing down what it is.

@xboxexpert

I didn't fix that problem, but my nook is charging fine.
[Nook Color Android Development] danbutter:
understood

thanks.
[Nook Color Android Development] xboxexpert:
I'll try and figure it out I've heard it not wanting to charge for a few others. Just says its charging but never goes anywhere.
[Nook Color Android Development] moonpie28:
I think it might be a sensor or reporting problem. I flashed HC4 to my internal and it reported (on the battery indicator lower right) that it wasn't charging. Battery indicated 40% or so. For various reasons nandroided back to 1.01 rooted and it was above 80.

Is the new image running one of the OC kernels by chance?
[Nook Color Android Development] molesaied88:
hello, i burned the image to the sd card and put it in the nook and booted it. i left it for about 30 minutes but its still saying blank sd card. any ideas? thanks in advance.
[Nook Color Android Development] cevans59:
I also have the problem with the sdcard partition never being formatted. Also when I try to install anything from the market, it downloads just fine but then my nc goes back to the android boot animation and nothing is installed.

FYI: I am using a 16gb class 4 card.
[Nook Color Android Development] phayzer5:
The newly updated image installed fine, no notices for the sd card . I was able to get Angry Birds installed. However, any of my purchaed apps that I try to install, it downloads and get to the end of the install, then the screen kics to the metallic Android text and the lock screen. Cleared the cache and data for Market and Framework, rebooted and still the same issue.

Other than this, everything seems to work ok for me.

Used WinImage with a Sandisk 8gb class 2 card, and my droid as the card reader with Win7 x64.
[Nook Color Android Development] Snyperx:
Just had this happen to me when trying to update gmail app. Whats interesting is after I attempted to update my gmail app the SD card notification went away. Hoping OP hops into the thread tonight yet.

FYI: I am using an 8gb class 4 SanDisk card.
[Nook Color Android Development] motrid:
Brian,

Great work! Thanks.

Would you please post again what commands we need to run in the terminal emulator to create and format the 4th partion for an 8 meg SD? I think they used to be in your first post, but I can't find them.
[Nook Color Android Development] brianf21:
I created a script that will automatically test for the 4th partition and create if it not there. So you should not have to create it, but check it just to make sure it is there.
[Nook Color Android Development] brianf21:
I am currently in class giving a midterm, but I will check back once I get home. If you are able, please post the results from this command:

adb shell mount

BTW: The script is called /system/bin/mk4part.sh and is started from /init.rc
[Nook Color Android Development] motrid:
Brian,

Sorry but I dont have adb. I have a picture of the SD showing in the top field and when I drag downword I see that I have the message Blank SD Card showing

Any help?
[Nook Color Android Development] brianf21:
From the terminal in the app drawer run

/system/bin/mk4part.sh
[Nook Color Android Development] motrid:
opened terminal emulator, typed above. Message access denied. started again, at $ typed su ENTER, at # typed the ?system/bin/mk4part.su, got #. Stayed in terminal. No reboot. Thanks
[Nook Color Android Development] brianf21:
Does anyone automatically have their sdcard partition?
[Nook Color Android Development] brianf21:
That means the 4th partition is there. Run the mount command.
[Nook Color Android Development] Snyperx:
Well I just tried the command after granting r/w to /system and am getting this:

fdisk: can't open '/dev/block/mmcblk1' : permission denied

reboot: Operation not permitted
[Nook Color Android Development] phayzer5:
I never saw the SD card icon like i did with the previous version before the scripts were run manually
[Nook Color Android Development] motrid:
From terminal at $ typed mount, enter. Got 12 lines of text. first line "rootfs on / rootfs (ro). Last line: /dev/block/mmcblk0p7 on /mnt cache type ext3 (rw,nosuid,nodev,noatime,nodiratime,errors=continue,data=ordered).

Have $ and cursor

Tried rebooting, no change still getting Blank Card error
[Nook Color Android Development] TheEditor:
Glad to see this has been updated, but how can I update my older SD without starting over? I have tons of stuff on it, all nice and configured, just want the new 67 version. Help
[Nook Color Android Development] brianf21:
The script is not working right. The only think I can think of is to shutdown the nook, take out the sdcard, using a windows box, remove the 4th partition, recreate it and format it with fat32. You could use a utility like easeus to do it.
[Nook Color Android Development] motrid:
Trying that now,thanks
[Nook Color Android Development] Snyperx:
I am also working on this.

UPDATE: Deleted the partition, recreated with Easeus, formatted FAT32, put SD back in Nook, rebooted, made system r/w, ran command. Same errors I was getting before:-( Also the error in the notification bar is saying my SD card may be damaged and needs to be reformatted.
[Nook Color Android Development] sburlbaw:
I'll say that you will have to reflash to get the updated version, because whenever you burn an image to an sd card it reformats it which also erases everything. Just a thought
[Nook Color Android Development] phayzer5:
I dont know what I did differently, but my 4th partition is there and I don't get any "damaged SD card" notice. It was a 1.01 NC straight out of the box this past monday. rooted it that night but that's all I've done to the thing...
[Nook Color Android Development] brianf21:
It's the permissions to the data directory that is screwing up Market.

This is extreme, but just to test it after looking at logcat....

chmod -R 777 /data

Now market works...

Does anyone know which directory the market uses as a temp directory?
[Nook Color Android Development] ganovim:
adb install fails, and instead sends a reboot message, This was never a problem in the original 0.6.7
[Nook Color Android Development] Divine_Madcat:
I tried the chmod suggestion, but my market still fails to download..
[Nook Color Android Development] phayzer5:
That works for me, now my paid apps install correctly and I can install my Beautiful Home widget :)
[Nook Color Android Development] brianf21:
Do you have the 4th partition? Does it fail at the download or the installation?
[Nook Color Android Development] Divine_Madcat:
I had to fix the partition in ubuntu, and it seems to fail at the download.
[Nook Color Android Development] myecomemail:
In my experience if Market is failing to start downloading at all the problem is almost always solved by doing this

open Settings --> Applications --> Manage Applications --> All --> Market

Clear

cache

, and then Force Close

open Settings --> Applications --> Manage Applications --> All --> Google Services Framework

Clear

data

, and then Force Close

Reboot
[Nook Color Android Development] phayzer5:
Thats one of the first things i tried but it didnt fix this issue. The chmod cmd worked great, everything downloads and installs as expected.
[Nook Color Android Development] brianf21:
What commands did you use?
[Nook Color Android Development] Snyperx:
brianf21,

Anything else you want us to test? Are you working to resolve the issue then repost the image? If so, can you add the mod to remove the cell service notification? Image looks really awesome minus the current issue. Your hard work is appreciated.
[Nook Color Android Development] cybertimber2007:
Google Apps? Market?

Errm, I'm fairly sure you aren't allowed to bundle Google Apps or Market.
[Nook Color Android Development] brianf21:
http://www.google.com/apps/intl/en/terms/user_terms.html

I don't see anything about bundling. Thanks for the heads up. Could a mod to clarify this?

Pending this, I am going to make an image with the 4th partition removed and instruction on how to recreate the 4th partition in Linux and Windows, so this should fit on any size card.
[Nook Color Android Development] elessarelfstar:
I would love to see a 4gb version. Thanks so much for your hard work. It's so great to see a first custom alteration of existing material.

Edit: instructions would be great. I'm totally willing to do the work.

Also, in terms of the Google apps being bundled, he isn't doing anything different than the vast majority of roms offered on xda. Cyanogen got heat because his were getting so popular. In the same way technically all of the windows mobile roms are infringing on copy rights too, but they are here.
[Nook Color Android Development] Netcruzer:
Awesome OP, thanks for posting this. This 8GB image should be perfect for my first taste of nookie froyo. I'm still waiting for my NC to ship to me in Canada. Been doing tons of research in the mean time.

I didn't know that Youtube was a problem with nookie froyo. Can anyone point to info on how to install a decent youtube app for this image?
[Nook Color Android Development] bassrebel:
just tested it and its really stable, just had one prob... my nook rebooted once and booted on 2.1... other than that no probs
[Nook Color Android Development] Canadoc:
if i have .5.8 working and with apps etc like i want is there a way to update the sd card to this without losingwhats on it already?
[Nook Color Android Development] dalingrin:
Is browser scrolling speed improved with Nookie Froyo vs a rooted Nook?
[Nook Color Android Development] brianf21:
You could copy the /system to your /system, but you would not be gaining anything because I really did not change anything on the base image. Anything that I have on this image can be installed from the market.

Also, I posted an image that should go on any card. Please check the first post for the link.
[Nook Color Android Development] molesaied88:
maybe im not understanding but i dont seem to be able to see the 8gb at all. the sd card shows .89 gb and the internal shows 550 mb. am i doing something wrong?
[Nook Color Android Development] Divine_Madcat:
Good question.. i see the same myself actually...
[Nook Color Android Development] brianf21:
No, you are not doing anything wrong. I realized I formated the 4th partition ext3 instead of vfat. I will write up instruction on how to recreate it tomorrow.
[Nook Color Android Development] JesterDev:
Testing and working. Used WinDiskImager. Also tried it with DD under Suse Linux.

Windiskimager gave me an error at 51% the first time, but I just formated the SD card and did it agian. Works great!
[Nook Color Android Development] taylor.fowler:
Market

Just a heads up, to get all apps viewable in the market i had to Clear Cache on the Market, Clear Data on Google Framework Services and Force Close, then reboot. It's outlined in the original Nookie thread somewhere a little more detailed.
[Nook Color Android Development] bassrebel:
my only problem rite now using this image is that for some reason I can't find the function to make wifi not sleep in spare parts
[Nook Color Android Development] jleecong:
When I write an app to /system/app and run it I seem to get FCs (setCPU, SmartKeyboard), but SystemPanel works fine from /system/app?

I noticed most of your apks are under /data/app... If I move setCPU or Smartkeyboard to there they seem to work fine?
[Nook Color Android Development] nokry56:
This looks fantastic, thanks for your work on this.

What's the eta on the 16gb version?
[Nook Color Android Development] brianf21:
I had to install via adb install. I could not put my Google account on the nook because I want to share the image, which means I could not install via the Market. /data/app apparently is the default adb install location.
[Nook Color Android Development] Ultimoose:
Got this working without any problems on a C10 8gb sd. Very usable. I do note that I only see the boot partition when using USB to sideload. Is that normal and if so is there a way to turn on usb storage mode on the sdcard partition so that it's visible in windows? Drag and Drop is just a lot easier than adb pushing or up/downloading through drop box when you have a lot of stuff to move over.
[Nook Color Android Development] brianf21:
Within the hour.
[Nook Color Android Development] tboothie:
Is there a way to update the SDCard now that the 4th partition is fixed on the 8GB version or do I need to just re-image the whole thing and start over?

Other than that, it's working beautifully so far!! Great job.
[Nook Color Android Development] Irish Cream:
I did this and came back to the #.... someone said to mount the drive... but what is the command to do so?

Would really love to get this working with the SDCARD available
[Nook Color Android Development] cevans59:
The chmod data worked for me as far as market installs go. -- Thanks
[Nook Color Android Development] ta2025:
Im getting a lot of reboots from trying to install market apps.
[Nook Color Android Development] daemonfly:
Had my NC "freeze", where the touchscreen wasn't responsive, but the buttons would wake it up - just couldn't get past the lock screen or power it off. Had to do the "hold power button for 15sec trick". Just in case anyone else has this problem.
[Nook Color Android Development] brianf21:
I've uploaded an new image with the permissions fixed.
[Nook Color Android Development] Divine_Madcat:
Sorry about the delay. I used the partition manager built in to ubuntu.
[Nook Color Android Development] Snyperx:
Brian,

You really need to add a donate button to your name. I would totally send you some funds for the work that you do. Thanks!!!
[Nook Color Android Development] brianf21:
Thanks, but this is just a hobby. :)
[Nook Color Android Development] aztigen22:
man! you are one good person! but its not a bad idea to have that Donate to me button..:D
[Nook Color Android Development] Snyperx:
I had a chance to burn the image to my SD card. It booted fine, but I am unable to connect to my home wireless network. This was working fine in the previous version. My network is secured using WPA/WPA2. I have attempted to enter my wifi information 3 separate times and it will not connect. I am not sure if this is related to any of the changes you made.
[Nook Color Android Development] brianf21:
It might be your router. Try rebooting the router. Where does it fail, obtaining an ip?
[Nook Color Android Development] Snyperx:
Yeah. Says out of range when I am sitting right next to it. It starts to connect then says disconnected then tries to connect. I did change my router so it uses a mixed mode of WPA/WPA2 as well as TKIP and AES. I run DD-WRT for the firmware. Also it will say scanning then stop then try and scan again. I know the router is ok since I am currently on my Desktop computer which uses a wifi adaptor. Also my iPhone is currently connected fine. If I burn the previous release to an SD and boot wifi is fine.
[Nook Color Android Development] brianf21:
I didnt touch anything with the wifi. I've had problems with my router connecting the same device after flashing. Other devices could connect but not the one i flashed. Rebooted the router and it connected just find. But i at least able to see the router on the device.
[Nook Color Android Development] Snyperx:
I'm not sure what is up then. I re-burned the image to the SD card and booted up. I still am unable to get connected via wifi. All my other deivces are connecting fine. Very strange.
[Nook Color Android Development] totololo:
I have exactly the same problem since i got my nook, whatever ROM i use. It sees few wifi networks, and, even if i stand just next to my router, it says the signal is poor ... and disconnect very very often ...

I believe maybe my unit is faulty ...
[Nook Color Android Development] brianf21:
Any luck? Did you try to reboot the router or download the image again? Anyone else have this problem?
[Nook Color Android Development] computerpro3:
I'm having a couple of issues with this. First, it's significantly more laggy than the 5.9 image. Second, I can't uninstall anything that comes with it. It simply says install failed. Also, the market is wonky - sometimes it works, sometimes it doesn't.
[Nook Color Android Development] Snyperx:
I pulled the SD card last night and went back to my rooted 1.1 and it connected fine to my WiFi. I have not had a chance to re-download the image yet. Does your image have a MD5 we can check against?
[Nook Color Android Development] mediabear:
Wi-Fi works just fine here. No lag on this image that I can see. Everything runs very well. I still cant get market to work. Everything I try to download just says download unsuccessful. When I goto myapps in the market there is no progress of downloads or anything. Just a blank page that says no downloads. I can use adb fine though.
[Nook Color Android Development] brianf21:
Did you do the clear data in Google Framework and clear cache in Market then reboot thing? Do you have an sdcard partitition?
[Nook Color Android Development] yazyazoo:
I just got a 8gb Polaroid card that is made in Japan. It looks like a San Disk rebadge. I don't know the speed. So I just burned a the card with the program version on the first page 0.6.7 and placed it into my Nook Color.

I turned on, unlocked after two minutes, press power to relock, then unlock again.

I then setup my wireless.

Tried to get Angry Birds to download. Disn't work and says installation failed.

Also the browser seems to lock up and stalls.

What can I do to fix this?
[Nook Color Android Development] brianf21:
What are you trying to uninstall? You can always mount /system as rw and use rm to remove the apk.
[Nook Color Android Development] mediabear:
Clearing data and cache worked. Thanks! :)
[Nook Color Android Development] djjeesh:
Seems to work as good as to be expected. Some apps missing from the Market though .. oh well.

Gtalk authentication errors here and there too.
[Nook Color Android Development] motrid:
Brian, I ran the chmod and everything is working well. Should I download the latest image or is what I have OK? I really am enjoying your work, think about that donate button you can always use the funds to feed the hobby
[Nook Color Android Development] martinamw:
> @brianf21 Great Job - Working good.

How would one go about writing this to internal memory, instead of booting from SD, would there be any point to it (performance increase).

Thanks

I'm only getting 1100-1150 Quadrant scores with a 1GHz OC with Froyo. I thought I would get a good bump in score from looking at other benchmarks but the score is the same as 2.1. Is it because it's running on a class 6 sdcard?
[Nook Color Android Development] Snyperx:
I re-downloaded the image finally and re-burned the SD a second time. I booted up and was able to setup the wifi. Wireless is working correctly now. Thanks for the help and Sorry for the bother.

On a side note, will the OC kernels work with your image? I would like to run the 1100Mhz kernel if I can.

you can go to market by two ways. launch zeam and go to app drawer n run market. or tap the down navigation button then go to extra and run market there. to install apks, i believe u have to either adb push them or download file explorer/app manager
