Anyone have video problems with rockplayer and h264 mp4 files? My videos are squished into 1/2 the screen with hardware acceleration on. If not I'll just reflash to see if that fixes it.

ADB install does not install anything, but sends a reboot.

This was never a problem in the original 0.6.7
[Nook Color Android Development] mrty4short:
I was having problems with the touch response with 0.6.7 I installed the app animation mod from the market. It seemed to help alot I don't know if anyone else was experiencing this.
[Nook Color Android Development] jonrobertd:
What footprint does this have in the market?

Half the games listed in the working thread aren't listed. (gun bro for example)

I tried the verizon voles\sholes one line, but is there more to edit than that?

Anyone got the one from the Galaxy tab? Love to try it!

Just tried this for the first time. Anyone else have problems with the market downloading really really really slow??

hardware decoding of movies

Running Customized Froyo 0.6.6 from eMMC -- is hardware decoding of mp4s not working? I either get Gallery FCs or Cannot play error messages. I am using Software decoding from Rockplayer.

It's not that big of a deal, but if I use software decoding of mp4s, is there a big battery drain compared to hardware?

What's the drain on avi/divx files?

Neither of these would be HD, definitely less than 480p.

Help. Can't "flash to emmc"

Ok, I may have over stepped my comfort level and now I've messed up my internal memory. I want to see if there is a simple step I'm missing. I was coming from rooted 1.1 with CWR installed. Using the directions in the OP first thread, I was able to download, dd (burn img to SD) and format all the needed partitions through CWR. But when I tried to apply zip file though CWR it says the file is (bad) and cannot open. Am I doing this part wrong? Do I need to use adb to "flash" to internal memory or is the download corrupt? (I tried it two times with the same result both times. Please give me your wisdom if there is an answer. If not, I'll go through the process of going back to stock. Thanks.

The good doctor.
[Nook Color Android Development] brianf21:
I would say that the download was corrupted. Try downloading it again. You are doing everything right.
[Nook Color Android Development] drfeldtgood:
I found out that my problem was the uSD card. The new one doesn't work for some reason but my old Class 2 2 GB card worked. I was able to apply the zip file and now when I rebooted it just hangs on the little green ANDROID_ screen. I wiped and reformated all the partitions. Is there something else I did wrong.?

The good doctor
[Nook Color Android Development] brianf21:
Try clearing your cache.

How are we doing battery-wise right now? I'm still finding my battery drains at an alarming rate, and that's with the conservative governor on.

That's with NF-on-eMMC 0.5.9, btw.
[Nook Color Android Development] aztigen22:
ive been flashing my NC back and fort from 1.0.1 to froyo but i really like your version of froyo, but im confused on how to flash it to my NC. i dont use CWR internal because i always had problems with it dunno why...but i use CWR-SD to flash ROMs. I also use CWR-SD to wipe and format system and data then DD the stock images to restore my NC to stock 1.0.1.

My question is: How could i flash this version to eMMC? i tried following your process and the image just created a SD bootable Froyo. CWR uses flashable ZIPs right?or not?but this is not a ZIP or im missing something??
[Nook Color Android Development] Mikroft:
I dunno but my battery works fine. Unplugged and in use for 2 hours. Currently at 88% remaining. I'm also overclocked at 1.1ghz and using the default CPU governor. I should get more after disabling the cell standby.
[Nook Color Android Development] willverduzco:
The same thing is happening to me as well. I've tried clearing data on Market, Google Services Framework, and Download Manager and then restarting, but nothing seems to fix it. I had the problem once before on 0.6.6 and doing the same data clear fixed it. Does anyone have any suggestions?

Edit: Never mind. I tried the steps that I listed above once again, and it now works perfectly. Perhaps I didn't click "stop" on all of them last time.
[Nook Color Android Development] brianf21:
When you boot to the sdcard, then you will see the zip file. It is included in the image. The image is just IOMonster's CWR image with a zip file added.

Using the whole available memory from the NC in version 0.6.7

Hi,

I've installed the latest version 0.6.7

After install, I removed the sd card

now it works good, but I know the NC has 8 GB memory inside

But when I check the available space it says 755 MB ...

Can it be increased to get the 8 GB available ?

Thanks
[Nook Color Android Development] brianf21:
Most of that space is for /media, which is where you would store your book and documents. What you are looking at is the memory for application that does not use the entire 8 GB.

Better Every Time!

Firstly I've been flashing this to EMMC since the early days, & it gets better every version. Im so looking forward to a final release :-) However I have 2 quick questions about .67 version 2:

How is the SOD (sleep of death) issue in this version it seemed to start with .67 version 1?

Will we eventually have access to the maximum amount of internal memory available at some point?

Thanks in advance & keep up the great work!
[Nook Color Android Development] Divine_Madcat:
I think he was asking about the SD card. Like him, i have an 8GB card, but only 760MB available (around 6GB wasted).

Aside from that, I am loving the rom, except for one thing - i noticed the browsing experience is much slower than Eclair. going to engadget results in some painfully slow scrolling, where Eclair with the same browser is much faster. Any idea what the cause is?
[Nook Color Android Development] brianf21:
The SOD is do to the mediaserver using up the cpu I put a script on there called kms that will kill it. It will automatically restart and might start using the cpu again. So, I like to kill it a few times. Once the mediaserver start normally without using up the cpu, you will be fine until the next reboot.

su
kms

You do have access to all of the internal memory right now. It is under /media. This is the same as the stock rom from BN.
[Nook Color Android Development] brianf21:
I am not sure why the browser is slow, but are you running NF from the sdcard or the eMMC? If you are running it from the eMMC, you just need to reformat the sdcard. See post #1. Do not format it in the nook! If you are running from the sdcard, it is to difficult to write a script that formats the 4th partition the covers everyone's setup. I took a crack at it, but it did not work for some people and made matters worst for others. You could always try to delete the 4th partition and recreate it to use up the rest of the sdcard, but you need a utility like EASEUS or Linux to do it. Also, if you are running sdcard, this could explain why the browser is slower, because the sdcard is slower then the eMMC.
[Nook Color Android Development] Divine_Madcat:
I don't know - the Honeycomb version isn't quite that slow, and i know the SD card itself if plenty speedy (sustained 12MB/s reads, 7MB/s writes)...
[Nook Color Android Development] adma84:
i know it's been asked, but any plans to just create a flashable zip...I use monster to do all my backups and flashing, and I don't want to keep a third card around :) thanks

also, I just installed the latest, and it's installing .6.6...

Market totally not working

I updated to 0.6.7 the .2 update, and everything was working great, google talk worked, gmail, sd mounted, perfect. Now the market is not working and i get an error along the line of "server error" and i get the options "retry" and "cancel". I've tried to clear google service framework data and also clear market cache. I've rebooted a bunch of times, sd inserted and sd not in. I don't know what to do next. Any suggestions? thanks and awesome rom.
[Nook Color Android Development] j4mm3r:
Few things Brian...

Just release this as a CWR update zip file which'll be a lot more easier for people to flash and try. Furthermore, I think overwriting the boot partition in your zip is not so convenient. I mean unless a new release beings some kernel or recovery changes, its rather annoying to have it wiped. This way people can retain their recovery, OC kernels etc.

By the way, I tried your boot partition and the recovery doesnt seem to work. Is it even installed?
[Nook Color Android Development] brianf21:
Verify you are connected to your wifi.
[Nook Color Android Development] brianf21:
Yes i do plan on making a flashable zip that just does a copy instead of a dd image. If you want, you could grab the zip and the *.img files out of my image and put them in yours. The flashable zip is the image file. 6.6 was two images ago. If it has a blue android for the background and a custom boot animation it is 6.7.
[Nook Color Android Development] brianf21:
I cant be sure everyone is flashing over another version of NF. If they are coming from a stock version it would not work without boot be updated plus I made some changes to the ramdisk. IOMonster updated the rootpack. Clockwork is still the same version (3.0.0.5) so it would not have any effect since root pack is not being used. Once you have it burnt to a card, open up the zip and comment out the line in the updater-script for the boot partition. That way you boot wont be altered.
[Nook Color Android Development] j4mm3r:
Yup, I understand the need... what I also did try was to flash your boot.img just for kicks, thats what is giving me a problem getting into recovery. Any ideas what gives?

EDIT: Just to let you know, I'm holding the "n" key while powerup, maybe I should have tried "n" + "volume +"??

EDIT: Just had this idea... why not edit the init.rc to call a editable hook, I mean put maybe a call to /etc/rc.local in there after most of the init is done and then call /etc/rc.local. Then we have a method of putting in custom init actions without modifying the ram disk.
[Nook Color Android Development] brianf21:
If you just want to copy over boot try this. Boot to CWR, mount the sdcard then connect using adb.

adb shell
dd if=boot.img of=/dev/block/mmcblk0p1

Replace boot.img with the name of the boot image.
[Nook Color Android Development] brianf21:
/etc/rc.local is not a bad idea. Just make a folder and run any script the user drops in.
[Nook Color Android Development] drewtang:

Same issue here on .6.7 revision .2. I think I shall revert back to .1.
[Nook Color Android Development] RichAP:
Same thing happening to me.

Can setup email but no market and after Google Talk came back with the authentication error it wont even open.

I tried the Market Cache and Framework Data fixes to no avail.

I tried pushing Talk.apk from the Honeycomb scripts and when I do it doesn't even show up in the App Draw.
[Nook Color Android Development] RichAP:
I used MarketEnabler from this post http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=954666&page=2

I did an adb install to get on the Nook.

Set it for Verizon, it didnt work at first and then a few minutes later Market started working and then magically Google Talk worked as well.

Kinda busy at work now, but wondering if this is a build.prop issue...will take a look later.

Still unable to see some market apps like Evernote & SugarSync.
[Nook Color Android Development] jkurl:
I am having the same error. an error has occured. please try again later. I did the stop market and framework and cleared data and cache and then I get this error. what do I need to do next.

now i get a server error has occurred.
[Nook Color Android Development] brianf21:
Reboot. Every once in awhile after doing the fix then reboot you will get this error. One more reboot and you will be good. Report back results.

Downloading it now. How long have you been running it?
[Nook Color Android Development] jkurl:
I just did another round of clearing and force stopping. Turned it off and gonna let it set for a good while w/ the Pwr off.

Still doing the same thing.

This time I stopped framework and then cleared data and then stopped market and cleared data. I was doing. It the other way last time. Clearing data and then stopping

Still the same as before. This really sucks. Hopefully someone comes up w/ a fix soon.
[Nook Color Android Development] willverduzco:
Weird. I reverted back to .1 and my issue temporarily went away. It's back now (heralded by the Talk Authentication Failed message), and I can't seem to get it working again.
[Nook Color Android Development] jkurl:
I ended up using market enabler. What i did was use root explorer and installed the market enabler app so I could get market back. When I got market back I paid for the donation for market enabler so I could pick the profile I want and set it for boot so I don't have to go through this everytime. I used the verizon profile. Long hold on the profile you want to use and pick your option. To use the boot set option you must buy the donate.
[Nook Color Android Development] RichAP:
I'm wondering if copying fingerprint line in the build.prop from my DroidX would have the same effect that Market Enabler is doing.

Will probably try this tomorrow.
[Nook Color Android Development] jkurl:
It could. I tried the one from android central which might be a generic one but it didn't work. When you make a change it will save the old build.prop to build.bak so you will have it if you need it back.

I've been using the same 1100mhz overclock kernel since you first released 0.6.7. Rock solid. My current uptime is 5 days.
[Nook Color Android Development] richdaley:
This is working great for me. I get a little bit of a screen sensitivity issue sometimes when the device first boots but it works fine after that.

I have a question. I installed ADW launcher EX after I installed this ROM and it messed up the behavior of the soft keys. When I first booted the Nook, I was able to press the n button from anywhere and the soft keys would appear but it doesn't work that way now, even with the Zeam and stock Android launcher.

Is there any way to reset the settings back to the way it was when it was first booted? I don't care if I have to use Zeam or the stock launcher.
[Nook Color Android Development] fabienk:
i also had issues with the market ... until i realised that i didn't erase old system folder on my mSD, once erased now everything works fine
[Nook Color Android Development] brianf21:
Goto settings>manage applications>all apps and press adw then press clear defaults. After that press the n button and check the box and select soft keys.
[Nook Color Android Development] richdaley:
Thank you! I am not exactly sure how I did it (I think there was an extra step in there) but I have it working now. I think once I added softkeys as the default from the home button, I had to hit the home button on the softkey panel and choose ADW EX as the default. Something like that.

This ROM is awesome. I set my LCD density to 220 and it looks great.

There are just a couple of issues that I can report.

The screen is not very responsive when it first boots. It responds like a resistive screen (you have to push hard). It gets better if I leave it alone for a while which is hard to do. It may just need some time to boot fully, start services etc.

The market starts up and runs great for me (downloads quickly etc) but some apps do not appear (notably the original Angry Birds). This happens even after I clear the Market Cache, stop the Market, clear Google Frameworks data, stop frameworks and reboot.

Location services do not seem to find me by my network address. This causes a problem with apps like weatherbug. I am not sure if there is a workaround for this.

Is Adobe Flash supposed to be working? I noticed that it is installed but it doesn't appear in the either browser. I was not expecting Flash support so it would be a surprise to me if it worked.
[Nook Color Android Development] jkurl:
market enabler gave me alot more apps. i was able to download angry birds and facebooks works as well. In the other nookie froyo it would not work.
[Nook Color Android Development] brianf21:
Flash is there, but sometimes it does not work. Do you have adb installed? Run the kms script a few times after boot to kill the mediaserver. That will clear up the lag after booting up.
[Nook Color Android Development] richdaley:
Awesome! the kms script did the trick and also fixed the problem I was having with the lock screen not working when waking from sleep. I was just about ready to flash the rom again. I have been struggling with adb for the NC. Every other Android device we have in the house (I think 4 at last count) connects immediately but I can't get adb to see the Nook and I have tried every "easy install" script I could find. I am going to try again tonight. I haven't attempted it since installing this ROM.

Thanks again!

Rich
[Nook Color Android Development] jkurl:
When you did the kms script did you own terminal and type kms or did you run the script from root explorer.
[Nook Color Android Development] brianf21:
The kms script was available only on the 0.6.7.2 custom image. I just uploaded a new 0.6.8.1 custom image. The kms script is no longer needed.
[Nook Color Android Development] xenithorb:
Oh? I've been on Cicada's 0.6.8 changes (from your 0.6.7.2) since he released his flashable zip, I just copied over the changed files.. and there have been the same exact mediaserver problems as in the past. I'm affected by this every single time, sometimes to the tune of rendering the system unable to do anything (making it hard to get to terminal sometimes) What is causing this to occurr? ...and have you enacted any more changes that have fixed this daunting problem?
[Nook Color Android Development] brianf21:
Edit /system/build.prop and change the media.stagefright stuff to true and reboot. Let us know it if works. I am currently not having the problem with this build.
[Nook Color Android Development] richdaley:
Hey Brian - Thank you for all of your hard work on this ROM. Please provide a donation link. Is there a procedure for updating from one version to the next or do I need to wipe and start over?

jkurl - I run the script in terminal emulator after the nook boots up. I open terminal emulator and type su, hit enter, type kms, hit enter. I have been doing it more than once but I am not sure if it makes a difference.

Thanks,

Robo Defense Beta HD graphics slow. I run this on 1.1 and honeycomb, graphics is smoother than 0.68. I just wondering, is there is a fix?
[Nook Color Android Development] ibsscott:
I upgraded to 0.6.8 to try and stop the sleep of death. In 0.6.7 I renamed phone.apk to phone.apk.old which somehow allowed Slingplayer to work. If I do that in 0.6.8, it doesn't get past the android_ screen when booting and I have to reinstall it. Why would it act differently than 0.6.7?
[Nook Color Android Development] mmtoman:
Adobe Flash

I am running the new 0.6.8 customized and flash player doesn't seem to work. I don't know if it is engadget's site or if flash totally doesn't work. I've tried others and it didn't work as well.

Anything wrong with flash or is my install bad??

thanks
[Nook Color Android Development] brianf21:
You can install flash from the market.
[Nook Color Android Development] brianf21:
When it android, you should be able to connect using adb. Try to run adb logcat to see what is happening. Renaming this should not prevent the nook from booting.

v6.8 instructions not so clear

Might want to update the OP with which zip file to flash. There are two in the image and it's not clear that the "custom" one should be flashed. Of course I picked the other one that seems to be the base rom.
[Nook Color Android Development] jkurl:
Brian the market issues are still there, however clearing cache and force stopping works. I put market enabler on my nook and set it for fake upon boot. I loved my wife nook so much I got my own. Thinks for a great rom.

The other problem I noticed is when I reboot into recovery it bypasses CWM and never goes into recovery. Not a bug problem as I have a CWM recovery sd card. It is a pain in the but changing out as cards everytime.
