just follow the steps just as you did before. it wipes the date for you as you flash the nook. just did it because i was having issues of the wifi not running on boot up. think wifi fixer caused this and a boot problem i was having. even after uninstalling wifi fixer, it was booting ok again, but wifi needed manual start.

reflashed the rom and everything is gravy again. making a backup so i can just restore next time.
[Nook Color Android Development] dizx:
I'll do the reboot test when I get home. I haven't had to reboot since loading wifi fixer earlier today.

Edit: Did reboot test. Wifi Fixer launched automatically, but couldn't find a network until I manually turned on wifi in settings. Kind of makes sense, yes?
[Nook Color Android Development] Shawn_230:
Yeah, that's exactly what I did. It's a shame the theme messes up the browser since it looks so good.
[Nook Color Android Development] Neptune5k:
This sounds stupid, but this always got me out of the loop pretty quickly.

Simply go into Settings, the Applications, then Manage Applications, and click on some running app. Then back out or hit your home button. It shouldn't make any difference, but my WiFi would be back on in a few moments.
[Nook Color Android Development] cnewsgrp:
I tried these and they don't work. When I reboot to recovery from ROM Manager I see "Android" written and then back to froyo - no recovery.

Using button, I get a black screen and nothing else.

I am able to boot to recovery with SD Card - but its a painful process because everytime I need to do that I have to take the sdcard out; copy contents over to desktop, image it and boot from sdcard.

This is because I have only two sdcards one is 8 gb and another 2gb.

I have asked in this thread several times to help with issue of image not fitting into 2GB sdcard without any helpful response.

Hello,

I sure am enjoying this rom. It works great. But there is something I am missing. I am not able to get the Face Book app from the market. It actually does not show up. Can someone post this apk so I can put it on the NC via side loading it?

Thank you

I would try to manually update CWM (copy files over using adb)- see the instructions in the 3.0.10 thread
[Nook Color Android Development] anurbanlegend:
Are you using a dual boot setup? If so i think the right key combo is Power + VolUp + VolDown. If you aren't dual booting, search the CWR 3010 thread for u-boot.bin. That will fix your problem because you have a jacked u-boot.bin.
[Nook Color Android Development] cnewsgrp:
Do you mean this thread?

How do I go about installing this? Can I install recovery over my existing installation? or Should I create an image to SDCARD and flash the image to Nook first and then install any ROM from this image?
[Nook Color Android Development] anurbanlegend:
Yes that thread. http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=11844914&postcount=219

That is how i pushed a stock u-boot.bin to my boot partition to fix it. DO NOT DO THIS if you are using a dual boot setup because it will break your dual boot.
[Nook Color Android Development] funcrusher:
I have two 2 GB cards which one was 1.84 and the other 1.86 after format -- the image is 1.89 I believe. I'm in the same boat. I tried like 10 times and it would always fail at like 97%.

So, you should probably move on, brah. I would either backup the 8 gb card and use it or buy another card.

You've tried to reflash CWR from ROM Manager?

If you can at least get in that way then you can flash CWR from CWR which installs the kernel too.
[Nook Color Android Development] cnewsgrp:
That is just insane. Can't someone just create a image that is 1.79 or something? The size of files on my 8GB is around 1.2 GB.

Someone please help!!:(
[Nook Color Android Development] cnewsgrp:
Thanks. I don't have dual boot. I will try to do this today. What are the keys to go to recovery? >>> Shutdown, then Power, Vol up and Nook buttons?
[Nook Color Android Development] anurbanlegend:
Shutdown. Then hold the N button, while holding that down, press and hold the power button, you will see the screen flash and the "touch the future of reading" or something like that, count to 4 and let go of the power button and keep holding the N button till it goes into recovery.

If that doesn't get you into recovery and you cant get into recovery from Rom Manager, your u-boot.bin is messed up. Also you can try following the steps here to get back to stock and start over http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=11535969&postcount=151

Which software are you using to burn the sdcard? Use this one, then you should not have a problem burning the image to the sdcard. http://www.winimage.com/
[Nook Color Android Development] funcrusher:
I couldn't get it to work with winimage. The image was still too large.

I've had no issues burning his 2gb images using DD in linux and I think the first time i used "Win32DiskImager" in Windows and had no problem burning.

Videos rotated 90 degrees

I have an interesting problem. I just came over to Nookie Froyo 6.8.3 from a CM7 nightly build due to Nookie having video acceleration.

Videos are playing smoothly and the audio is in sync (finally, thank you!). But all of my videos are rotated 90 degrees. The player's controls are displayed in landscape view, but the video is played as if it were portrait.

This happens in videos played in the stock player, as well as in the YouTube app. Again, in YouTube the controls are displayed in landscape as expected, but the video is rotated...

On an unrelated note, is there a way to add the back and menu buttons to the status bar? I miss having them easily accessible as in the CM7 builds.

#Edit:

Rebooting seemed to fix the problem.

just set dolphin mini (or whatever 3rd party browser you may prefer) to bypass the softkeys on status bar FCing stock browser.

settings/applications/manage applications hit "all" look for "browser" touch it then clear defaults. Now do a search in the google search widget and set something other than the stock browser as default. Now you have the theme,softkeys on status bar and no FCs!! pure win ;)

Who here doesn't have wifi looping problem? Just curious

Just curious.. does everyone have wifi loop problem? I love this ROM except the wifi issue which makes it hard to live with. Tried the Honey Comb yesterday and wifi is very good. Never dropped but to me it's laggy and I'm more used to Froyo interface than HC. So, I reinstalled this ROM last night. Held off from installing SetCPU to make sure it doesn't cause wifi problem.

So I left the nook slept all night. When i wake it up this morning, the wifi loop problem starts again. Had to reboot it and it works. This is driving me crazy. Does anybody have a fix for this? From what I read, wifi looping problems is present in ginger bread too but haven't heard any problem in HC. TIA.

If anyone is looking for a good keyboard repleacement, Swiftkey has been working fantastic for me. Just FYI. Great job on the rom! I am having issues connecting to unsecured networks though. It connects fine but doesn't allow any data access.

I'm having a strange wifi issue where I can get traffic through for a little while but then it dies off. It helps if I fire up terminal and have it ping google in the background but that's pretty annoying and it eventually dies off as well. Happens on multiple access points (open, WPA2, and WEP) so it's definitely not my router.

For my own edification, can someone let me know if I missed the wifi scan interval in build.prop or if it is located somewhere else in the NF build? If it was missing, could it be the reason a lot of people (NF users) are having wifi dropping issues?

[Nook Color Android Development] aethermade:
I just flashed this to get away from Phiremod in hopes that this would actually play video, but I can't seem to download ANYthing from the market. When I try, I get a message saying, "Download was unsuccessful, please try again." no matter what I try to install.

Here are the steps I followed:

Flashed image to 8gb sd card

booted from it

cleared system, data, and cache

installed zip from sd card

cleared cache again (there was a status message that said I should)

popped sd card out

rebooted

enabled and connected wifi

opened market

failed to install apps

Am I doing something wrong? =\

Edit: Just FYI, I repeated this twice.
[Nook Color Android Development] jaybert45:
Follow the market fix instructions on the first page if this thread.
[Nook Color Android Development] bachviet:
You need to fix market:

1. Clear data in Google Services Framework and force close (in App Manager).

2. Clear cache in Market and force close (in App Manager).

3. Fix permissions in ROM Manager.

4. Reboot to Recovery using ROM Manager.

5. Wipe cache partition then reboot.

That should fix your market issue.
[Nook Color Android Development] BrianDigital:
really waned to try this out but my 2gb card is not big enough to burn this
[Nook Color Android Development] aethermade:
Thanks Jaybert, and bachviet, but I don't think that helped.

Steps I took:

I went into Settings, applications, manage applications,

I cleared cache and force stopped both Market and "Google Services Framework"

Then I went into Clockwork Rom Manager and did the Fix Permissions option

then, I flashed clockwork mod recovery

then I rebooted into the recovery

then I picked the "wipe cache" option.

Did I miss something? I still get the same error.

Edit: Tried this process a couple of times, no better results... what the heck am I missing? =(
[Nook Color Android Development] cj1171:
looks like the new kernel has fixed my wifi issues!
[Nook Color Android Development] darx:
You arent alone, I have the exact same problem. If anyone has an alternative fix I would love to hear it. I repeated the process in the main ops post a few times as well to no avail.

The rom is perfect otherwise. I just got my nook color today and am loving it. As soon as i can get the market working this tablet will be well worth my money.
[Nook Color Android Development] zizoty:
After you fix the permission, go straight to wipe cache. I don't understand the part "flashed clockwork and reboot into recovery. Just go back and wipe the cache after fix permission.
[Nook Color Android Development] aethermade:
Do you mean that I'm not supposed to reboot into clockworkmod recovery mode?

The only options I see are

Flash clockworkmod

reboot into recovery

install rom from sd

download rom

check for rom update

install from QR

manage/restore backups

backup current rom

fix permissions (the thing I just ran)

partition SD card

flash alternative recovery (greyed out???)

all clockworkmod recoveries

I don't see an option to wipe cache at all...
[Nook Color Android Development] jaybert45:
A couple things...

Settings>manage apps>running apps

Market first, Clear cache, then data, force close

framework, clear data, force stop

fix permissions

reboot into recovery

At this point i simply reboot. I have found that wiping cache at this point occassionally bungles it.

Open market. I get the accept terms screen and the only app i have trouble finding recently is fcebook. I pulled the apk from the tb backup on my phones sd card, and installed that way.

Sent from my mobile, so please forgive the spelling. I hope this helps.

on the 3 nooks that i have have flashed right out of the box......

2x version 1.1: all i did was register it with BN then burned the image with winimage and booted up with the sd card in... and once in clockwork recovery make sure you format the cache like noted in the instructions... then flahed the rom and was golden.

1st nook i rooted was a 1.0.1 and on that one i auto nooter'd it 1st to check stuff out, then ended up doing the same as i did on the 1.1's after i popped my cherry lol.

i guess the best starting point for you might be to make sure your formatting the cache and might even wanna give the dalvik cahe a wipe too. if still a nogo then try restoring it back to stock and try again. If it still hangs/loops then you might want to just try a different sd card and or try formatting the sd with the "Panasonic SDFormatter" <--google* and maybe even redownload and extract the nookie-froyo-0.6.8.custom.3.zip and reburn to sd just to null out any chance of a corrupted download.

final note... your certain you got the zip from this thread and not the sdcard version right?? might sound dumb but ive read of ppl trying the wrong ****.

Good Luck

Can someone tell me how to flash a Kernal to the eMMC, I'm trying perform this so my wifi could finally work properly (its turning off and on)... The Kernal instructions in dalingrin's thread aren't quite clear to me...PLEASE HELP

I'm one step away from finally have a functioing Android Tab from my Nook...
[Nook Color Android Development] BopChie:
just grab the kernel for froyo emmc and drop the zip on sdcard, then boot into clockwork,pick "Install zip from sd" then "choose zip from sd" goto the file u put on there and say yes. thats about it.. its always good practice to do a backup in clockwork prior to flashing to be on the safe side, tho i rarely do for a kernel.

wifi prolly gonna still be a little shaky when coming outta sleep, "blade wifi fix" or "wifi lock" seems to help with that tho.. or just open the wifi settings and it should stop looping

no need for them, they are baked into this rom already... this is probably(pretty sure it is) the best "out of the box" froyo for nook.

I am considering Nookie Froyo over Phiremod beta2 that I'm running right now, simply because there are still people working on this to improve it and solve problems. Has anyone used both ROMs and had a chance to compare them (apologies, if this was posted somewhere and I missed it)?

Currently, I have phiremod on eMMC and Nookie Froyo on SD. They both work fine (flash works, Market works, etc). I am trying to figure out what I'll gain and/or lose by moving from phiremod to nookie.

1. Today, I experienced a WiFi on-off loop on the Nookie Froyo from SD. Has this been fixed in the eMMC version with a new kernel?

2. This is installed through CWR just like any other ROM, right?

3. When you connect your NC to your computer, do you have access to both NC internal memory and the SD card? What's the available space of the internal memory after installing Nookie Froyo?

Thanks in advance!

Thanks again Jaybert and bachviet, combining your advice seems to have worked:

booted from sd image

cleared data, system, and cache partitions

installed nookie from zip

cleared cache again

rebooted into nookie

turned on wifi

managed applications and cleaned the cache (but NOT data) on the market and forced it to close

cleared data and cache on the google framework and forced that to close

went into rom manager and fixed permissions

rebooted into recovery

DID NOT clear cache again

rebooted back into nookie, and now I can download stuff from the market, yaaaay

Hi all,

This worked great!

I got the rom flashed and the market working after the fix.

I just have a question.

I know that this includes dalingrin's latest kernel, but from dalingrin's thread, it seems that there are different speeds for different kernels? What speed can I OC to with the included kernel? Or does it not matter?

Thanks!
[Nook Color Android Development] darx:
My knowledge of the nook is minimal, but I think you would be fine OCing to 1.1 GHZ. I just got my nook yesterday and cranked it up to full blast having already seen someone do it on youtube. I might have been taking a chance but my nook has been running perfectly!

I think setCPU actually limits the amount of OC'ing by default for the nook color. I tell you what though, this thing flies!
[Nook Color Android Development] resdog70:
Sounds like your 2GB card has phantom partitions on it.

Google for a file called HPUSBFW.EXE and use it to get the full, one-partition size of your 2GB card back.

Use this ONLY with a card reader going into a USB port... do NOT use it with any internal card reader systems built into the system. Most of these don't have the proper permissions to let you do this.

I did this and got my 2GB card back to it's expected capacity.

I flashed (thanks to bachviet's post)

I am not having any luck here. I installed adb on my PC (google android sdk). But when I connect nook color and run the first command (adb shell busybox mount / -o rw,remount) - I keep on getting device not found.

I then burned a 2GB bootable Clockwork SD card and installed a new Clockwordmod via the SDCard. Did not work.

I tried installing "RecoverFix.zip" That is also not working.

I cannot get to recovery by pressing power + nook button
[Nook Color Android Development] EhudBenjamin:
Before you try any command always start with "adb devices" it will confirm you are connected before you start anything else.

We need more information than "not working" what is it doing, what is not working? You do know that you need a rom to boot to not just cwr right?

To get to clockwork hold the "n" button and then hold the power button when the screen flashes to turn on, wait 2 sec then release the power button, continue holding the "n" button until clockwork comes up.

Set CPU

Curious as to folks experiences with Set CPU on this build? What you are using for best settings? I am on 600 Min and 1000 max. Seems to run fine.
[Nook Color Android Development] cnewsgrp:
Sure. After installing this ROM, I am unable to boot to recovery using button combo you have described above. It is not a big deal since I can boot to recovery using SDCARD, but it would be good to be able to go to recovery using button combo.

From what I understand I need to install correct uboot.bin file. I tried it two ways

1) I mounted boot partition and copied the file over: After I did this I did see ** Loading ** for 5 seconds but CWR never showed up. It is followed by "ANDROID.." for few seconds and then I get into FROYO 0.6.8.

2) I followed instructions listed earlier for "RecoveryFix.zip": I booted into CWR using a SDCARD and then installed RecoveryFix.zip. This should have fixed the issue, but NOT for me. I still cannot boot into recovery using button combo.

3) Installing the uboot.bin file using ADB: I am unable to get this to work. The instructions are not clear. I am aware that USD debugging needs to be on and it is. This ROM is also rooted. They don't mention if I need to connect to PC via USB in disk or charge only mode. I get an error "device not connected"

Since flash didn't work in Dolphin HD browser, I uninstalled it with the hope that it would show up in Market; it didn't. Then, after looking around for a solution, I installed it from here, and it is working fine now. It's interesting that flash 10.1 showed up in the Market after installing phiremod beta 2, but not with Nookie Froyo. Did anyone try using Market Enabler for this to work? I believe phiremod beta 2 had that step and it worked.
