Thanks Deeper-Blue! I love that you've got HC working so well on the NC.

A couple points I've seen after flashing v03.

Screen responsiveness seems a bit off. I've recalibrated it, but it doesn't seem to be sticking. It takes a bit to get the system to recognized I pressed a key.

Wifi network connection dialogue is transparent, so network passwords are hit and miss, depending on how my thumbs are spelling atm, took a couple tries, but I got it.

Installed market and gapps from the other thread, and they appear to be running fine. Download and installed successfully.

Quadrant scored 1121 on the first run. 886 on the second. I'm going to clear the dalvik cache and see if it gets better.

Another torrent for v03

I can't connect to the tracker in deeper-blue's torrent, so I created another. Please seed if you can, as the current swarm speed is pathetic :(
[Nook Color Android Development] njdevils28:
Hi,

I am unable to see my NC from Windows 7 while it's running HC (v03). Is there an alternate way to get the market installed?

anyone else not able to get adb to work with v3 honeycomb? worked fine with my galaxy s just test it
[Nook Color Android Development] mediabear:
I noticed the first time I booted up v.03 the screen was VERY unresponsive. After a couple of boots and using it for awhile it seems to be working just fine. I scored 1200+ on Quadrant but didnt run it a second time. I didnt notice any transparency in the dialogues. You can see real progress here from the other versions. This one runs great. Great job db!

The accelerometer seems to be messed up in games. I tried dead runner and speedx 3d and in dead runner its way off and speedx3d there is a built in calibration but it still seems a bit wobbly.
[Nook Color Android Development] ta2025:
Yes, I can confirm that adb does not want to mount the volume, at least in the way originally described? Is it a rooting issue?

However, I ran adb shell first and then mount and I was able to finish the steps.
[Nook Color Android Development] oldman_58:
I was able to connect without issue, added Market via ADB.

Try:

adb kill-server

adb start-server

adb devices

if your device still does not show up try rebooting your computer then test again.
[Nook Color Android Development] njdevils28:
What OS are you using to do this? Could you post te steps involved f your using windows 7?

-NJ
[Nook Color Android Development] ta2025:
my device showed up fine.

I couldn't run the mount command vis cutting and pasteing from above. I had to adb shell first, create the mount point, exit and then all was fine.
[Nook Color Android Development] ta2025:
did all the pre-flight checklist with Market (and I have done this before about 5x) market is stuck on "loading....". Going to go back and clear it a second time.
[Nook Color Android Development] ta2025:
and yes, touch response is a lot more sluggish than with v0.2
[Nook Color Android Development] epakrat75:
For me...after several reboots which have built a dalvik cache, v3 is way more responsive than v1/v2.
[Nook Color Android Development] Bimboy:
Anybody else not able to boot v03? I only get sideways "ANDROID_".

MD5 checksum verifies the file. I am using most recent Winimage (that worked with v01 and v02). There should not be a cache or dalvik cache issue, since it is looking to the /system on the card. Did a fresh format with sdformatter. Restored image to different cards 3 times now (that worked with prior versions). It just will not boot. I even let it sit on "ANDROID_" for a half hour...

I cannot get logcat output either... it's like the new kernel is immediately failing.

Any ideas?
[Nook Color Android Development] jerrykur:
Did you extract the image from the img.zip file and only restore the img to the SD card?
[Nook Color Android Development] ta2025:
Yes, I agree. I have restarted about 5 times now, working with Market and seem to have that behaving now...

It does get more responsive. Why is that? Is it clearing caches or is there some heuristic algorithm governing the touch response?
[Nook Color Android Development] ta2025:
I had no problems getting it to boot the first time. Did you unmount the card properly from windows?
[Nook Color Android Development] ta2025:
Market seems to be forgetting sometimes that an app is downloading. It gets X% through and stops and then going back to market, if you call that app up again, it doesnt know its currently downloading it and it starts downloading it again.
[Nook Color Android Development] thisisjjd:
Yes -- I'm having the same problem.

I'm sure that it's not a problem in flashing the card as I also checked the md5 checksum and when inserting the card in my linux machine, I see all four partitions just fine.

This is the same card (and same procedure) that worked fine for me with v02.

I'd also be interested about any solutions.
[Nook Color Android Development] Benny879:
So I attempted to format my 16 gb sdcard to flash the new image across it (I previously had version 2 on it). After I formatted the card it now shows it being 116 MB in size and I cant for the life of my figure out how to get it back to 16 GB. I downloaded EASEUS, however when I try to resize the card it maxes out at 116 MB still. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
[Nook Color Android Development] MДЯCЦSДИT:
Use this http://www.sdcard.org/consumers/formatter_3/
[Nook Color Android Development] Bimboy:
I just shut down my device, and plugged it into the computer to restart it, and it started Honeycomb that way. Give that a shot. Strange that is wouldn't boot as a standalone untethered device.

Edit: I tried to reboot, untethered, and it will not boot again. It only boots when tethered.
[Nook Color Android Development] epakrat75:
Upon first boot there is no cache. Cache is updated during a boot. It actually creates the cache (rather than deleting / clearing) for things more apps, etc after you use them.
[Nook Color Android Development] Benny879:
I tried that also. Still shows 116 MB after selecting allowing format size adjustment.
[Nook Color Android Development] MДЯCЦSДИT:
Deeper-Blue, please read.

Deeper-blue, please read this, what did you use to get the size so small? I want to do this for my custom one as my upload speed is slow.
[Nook Color Android Development] MДЯCЦSДИT:
Try overwrite with format size adjustment off.
[Nook Color Android Development] epakrat75:
Why not just collaborate on a single release?
[Nook Color Android Development] kellybrf:
the first time it pushed both files fine, i just got stuck on the android_ screen at boot. at that point i reimaged my card, booted into hc again, then tried adb push and thats when i started getting the error.

im now having the same issue on v3. i used a different card altogether this time so i know there is no carryover. can someone please point me in the right direction? searches are coming up empty
[Nook Color Android Development] MДЯCЦSДИT:
I want to, but he probably wants stock without tweaks and market, etc. :cool:

That's what I call a practical poetry, a sort of Rhapsody in Blue!

No go that way either. Here's a screenie.

Use this program. Its Hewlett Packards USB formatting tool.

[Nook Color Android Development] phineous:
Quick and dirty way to reformat the SD card to full size: boot your Nook without it, and then use the Nook to format it. Windows won't let you delete some types of partitions, but Linux and the Nook don't care bout no partitons.

Good luck!
[Nook Color Android Development] Benny879:
I finally got it restored...had to clean the disk using DISKPART and then format. Thanks for everyones help.
[Nook Color Android Development] ta2025:
Its supposed to be FAT32, not FAT. Fat is only like 12 bit.
[Nook Color Android Development] bfhunt2009:
Early feedback on V3

I successfully installed on a 4GB class 10. On Windows 7 x64, I used Win32DiskImager to burn the card. I expanded the sdcard partition to use all available space using EASUS. The previous version could not be used with <8GB without lots of work.

First I connected to my WiFi and added my Google account. I also added my corporate (exchange) account. I had to turn off calendar syncing as it was causing problems. Then I sideloaded market and google framework as described many times in this thread. Next, I used the market to get GMail. I turned on syncing for my Gmail account.

I noticed the initial touch-screen and overall sluggishness reported by others. I believe it is caused by syncing activity. Once my data had all synced it got much better.

Things I've noticed relative to v02:

- Flashing red rectangles are gone.

- Force closes of launcher following each app install seem to be gone.

- For some reason the screen shots in the market are blurry.

I don't recall that in v2, but I could be wrong. The window previews are

also blurry when tapping the windows soft button.

- Market downloads are definitely slow. I have rebooted many times

but it doesn't seem to help.
[Nook Color Android Development] ta2025:
yes, Market downloads are glacial. But we have to have our Angry Birds :)
[Nook Color Android Development] bonzer2u:
Benny, make sure you set the option in sdformatter to:

FORMAT SIZE ADJUSTMENT to OFF

you should then get a max size format
[Nook Color Android Development] bfhunt2009:
Speaking of Angry Birds

Actually, when I go to the market and search on Angry Birds I can only see the seasons version. With v2(a) I was able to download the standard version. Is the build fingerprint different in v3 relative to v2a?
[Nook Color Android Development] njdevils28:
How did you reclaim the lost space with EASEUS?
[Nook Color Android Development] ta2025:
you can open the img file and then slide the sdcard partition size back and forth. I made the sdcard partition on my 8GB partition yesterday.
[Nook Color Android Development] bfhunt2009:
Expanding sdcard

After burning the card I ran EASEUS Partition Master 7.0.1 Home Edition, clicked on the card (on my system it was G) and dragged the right hand border of the sdcard partition all the way to the right, over the unused space, then clicked Apply. Now my sdcard partition is 2361 MBytes in size, and is FAT32.
[Nook Color Android Development] njdevils28:
I'm sorry for all the questions but I can not locate the procedure for resizing the IMG file using EASEUS. If you could, would you please post a few more details?

-NJ
[Nook Color Android Development] njdevils28:
That did it. TYVM!

[Nook Color Android Development] :
Is there flash?
[Nook Color Android Development] jttraverse:
I did extract the image from the img.zip file, but I'm not sure what you mean by "only restore the img". Win32DiskImage gives the option to read/write, so I simply did a 'write' to the disk. It seemed to work fine and afterward the disk volume was named Boot and all the files appeared to be there.

I saw some comment about 'restore' in another post I think, so if I need to 'restore' rather than 'write', what do I need for that?

Thanks,

JTT
[Nook Color Android Development] RileyGrant:
The "restore" everyone is talking about is WinImage's version of "read/write." Try upgrading to the latest version of win32 or download WinImage and use that instead.
[Nook Color Android Development] Homer_S_xda:
When you look at the disk in EASEUS, what does the partition layout look like?

Homer
[Nook Color Android Development] Homer_S_xda:
Can you do an update type file that you can install into the one Nookie Honeycomb release? That way, there is only one OS and one updater to look for rather than dueling releases.

Homer
[Nook Color Android Development] ChrisJ951:
Does anyone know which file is responsible for this:

-fixed screen turning animations and previews in taskswitcher

I have v02 working from eMMC (thanks to Sam's help) however v03 is constantly rotated 90degrees (as in the image on screen is, but the touch isnt. I.e. the apps button appears in the bottom right but you have to press the top right to click it). If anyone can help fix this i'll upload a working eMMC guide for v03, if not i'll release a v02 version later today.
[Nook Color Android Development] deshwasi:
hopefully someone will post a market/gapp integrated version of v3 (just like they did for v2a). thanks again OP, you are the master bee
[Nook Color Android Development] MДЯCЦSДИT:
I actually had the v3 features working on mine yesterday and we need clockwork for a update.zip... how I would love clockwork... Mabel an advanced script, bit of only will work issue free with an img as it makes your nook the same as my working one.
[Nook Color Android Development] RMHisCOOL:
Just format it in the nook. This gets covered every 15 pages or so.

[Nook Color Android Development] spamftw:
doesn't change anything, reading back in the forum seems like it may have to do with the davlik cache... and rebooting multiple times may fix the issue... trying now

EDIT: After 3 restarts touch feedback is MUCH better. Better than 2

Is the Kernel in 03 overclockable?
[Nook Color Android Development] exactor_mortis:
Sure. Whistle while you work, and all that. When I was in the Corps, we sang while we were running, in part to keep spirits up and minds focused, rather than waiting till we were done. It's good to celebrate successes.

[Nook Color Android Development] dalingrin:
All kernels compiled from source have an issue where the touch screen is unreponsive until you lock the nook and unlock. You'll have to do it once each boot.
[Nook Color Android Development] njdevils28:
Server? What server and is this what is needed to see the NC with HC?

-NJ
[Nook Color Android Development] DrewLGT:
i cant see very many apps in the market, basically none that i want.

Is there a fix for this?
[Nook Color Android Development] dalingrin:
You probably need to change the fingerprint in /system/build.prop to something to mimic a phone. Perhaps the nexus S fingerprint.
[Nook Color Android Development] oldman_58:
What did you have to do?

I have been using ADB Wireless from the Market, used on my Droid 1 , DINC and now BN Tablet... with root works excellent...

[Nook Color Android Development] Pinesal:
Well that sucks. I hope the OP plans to make his own 2GB version otherwise i can't use this.
[Nook Color Android Development] Benny879:
Read his Q&A about not including the Market in ROMs because its frowned apon. That's my guess why he had it removed.
[Nook Color Android Development] slugbug2010:
Well I can get the Nook App, and it does show my books/shelves/library. But I can't read anything. I can view the table of contents but any time I try to get to page one or anywhere else the little circle just spins.

As others have said - Google Books works great (after making a few screen adjustments).
[Nook Color Android Development] slugbug2010:
I got a Sandisk, class 4, 4gb microsd card for $13. You may not have one laying around, but a larger sd card can come in handy anyway.

[Nook Color Android Development] crashdau:
So I got this loaded and up and running. Haven't been able to root it even following the instructions... get a "Too many symbolic links encountered". Guess I need to re-do everything again.

But, my main question now is, I've expanded the sdcard portion to take up the remaining space. But, now I'm stuck. How do you access that partition to put files on it?
[Nook Color Android Development] Homer_S_xda:
I think he means adb as in adb kill-server.

Homer
[Nook Color Android Development] RileyGrant:
First remove all the files youve already installed.

adb shell

cd /system/bin

rm ./su

cd /system/xbin

rm ./su

cd /data/local

rm ./su

cd /system/app

rm ./superuser.apk

do this with any other superuser files you may have installed. (Busybox etc.)

Then run:

adb push su /data/local

adb remount

adb shell

cd /data/local

cat su > /system/bin/su

ln -s /system/bin/su /system/xbin/su

chmod 06755 /system/bin/su

exit

Then install titanium backup, click problems at the bottom and install the latest busybox.

edit: This is regarding gaining su, not the partition. As for the second part of the question regarding partitions, what OS are you running on your computer? As for the second part of the question regarding partitions, what OS are you running on your computer?

[Nook Color Android Development] japzone:
You have to have Linux to see Anything but the 1st Partition (sdcard is 4th) or get a WiFi File transfer App from the Market. You could also just use ADB to push files to you're NC although that might be a bit tedious depending on How many files you want to Transfer.

adb push '[B]file name[/B]' /sdcard
OR
adb push '[B]file name[/B]' /sdcard/[B]desired filename[/B]

Rafael-

Perhaps we can make news of a different kind with this thread. I have been following this thread closely (and appreciate your work), but just read the following on the first post:

Q: Where can I donate?

A: I don't want any money. If you want to put your money to good use donate to a humanitarian organization and/or the EFF.

Perhaps you could name your favourite such organization and everyone who was going to donate to you could put their money in that direction. Even better, perhaps xda could rig you up a donate button that goes straight to that organization, and post a running tally of the donations. With the amount of interest here, your work could easily result in a few thousand dollars donated if people are willing to do the right thing. Publicity for xda, for you (or rather more than you're already getting), and for Barnes and Noble indirectly, and that warm feeling that all your hard work resulted in more than just a bunch of geeks getting giddy over our e-readers on steroids. Everybody wins.
