Freaking sweet. You rock Brian. You made my life so much easier.
[Nook Color Android Development] brianf21:
I can't get it to boot into CWR if the usb cabling is plugged in. Maybe it is just me.
[Nook Color Android Development] jkurl:
I will try later when I get home from the in laws.

Checkout the other 0.68 thread there is another guy that made a fix see if that is the same as your patch. It may not let you into recovery if USB debugging is on.
[Nook Color Android Development] drewtang:
Gotta say I like this update with the patch you added. Good job.
[Nook Color Android Development] zappaziz:
your best build yet. Thanks for all your hard work!

Is there a way to have the lcd density back to 160
[Nook Color Android Development] Riley1524:
My nook won't boot into recovery for some reason when trying to apply the new patch. It would be nice to have CW recovery on internal storage so I can use my SD as a regular storage device :)
[Nook Color Android Development] zappaziz:
If you formatted boot on one of the previous builds you need to repair it (at least I did).

I ran the following, then formatted my data and system, then flashed Brian's new custom and everything is shiny.

[Nook Color Android Development] richdaley:
Ok, this is getting better and better.

To install the patch, I had to leave the install image on the card and put it back in after the nook was booted. I copied the patch zip file and then followed the instructions to flash from ROM manager. The only problem was that after CMR was done installing the patch, it rebooted back into the recovery screen because the card was still in so I had to remove it and manually reboot.

I had a problem with the market after I rebooted. I kept getting an error that talk wasn't authenticating and the market would not download anything. It would allow me to click on the download button but the download icon would appear and disappear but the app would not download or install. I cleared the cache and did a force stop on the market and cleared the data and did a force stop on the google services framework and rebooted. That seems to have fixed the problem.

To change the LCD Density back to 160 (or whatever) open /system/build.prop (you have to mount it as RW first) and change ro.sf.lcd_density to whatever you want. If you are changing it back to 160, you can just comment out the current setting and uncomment out the old setting which is right below it. You have to save and reboot to make the change.

"Instructions:

Download

Unzip

Burn to sdcard

Boot to sdcard

Format data and cache from "mounts and storage" (The power button is the back menu button.)

Flash internal memory with CWR

Remove card

reboot to eMMC using the reboot option in CWR

Configure wireless

Configure Accounts & sync

Install Flash and YouTube"

usually i find answers by just reading the posts...i messed my nook up once and was able to restore after hours of research but can someone give me a step by step instructions after Format data and cache from "mounts and storage". i'm not exactly sure what "Flash internal memory" and "reboot to eMMC" is. thanks and any input will be helpful.
[Nook Color Android Development] zappaziz:
Flash to internal memory = Install zip from sd card option in CWR and select the zip file

Reboot to emmc = reboot the device without the install SD you made inserted to the newly installed OS
[Nook Color Android Development] grealest:
thanks a lot! really appreciate it...
[Nook Color Android Development] sasquatch_hero:
Earlier in the thread someone said you can download Flash 10.1 from the market on this, but it does not appear for me. How do I fix that? Or can someone supply me with the proper APK file?
[Nook Color Android Development] grealest:
i tried downloading flash 10.1 and youtube from the market but keep getting unable to download. any ideas?
[Nook Color Android Development] survivor_evil:
Im really confused. on the first page some one said this would fit a 1gb sd mine is 2gb and it doesnt fit. the instructions say, unzip and burn. the unzipped image is like 1.89gb so it doesnt fit on my 2gb card. Now you said install the zip from sd card. so do i unzip it or not? Please some one clarify it
[Nook Color Android Development] GrillMouster:
How do I verify that the patch installed? I first did the boot repair mentioned above, then installed the Customized Froyo 0.6.8 following directions in OP, then I tried installing the patch.

When installing the patch I opened ROM manager, flashed CWR, selected install update zip from SD, selected the patch zip file from my SD, clicked OK both times, and the NC basically rebooted normally. I didn't see any CWR screens, like I did when I flashed Froyo or the boot repair using CWR on SD.

So, is that how it's supposed to happen, or did the patch not install? How can I tell?

Thanks!
[Nook Color Android Development] sudermatt:
Check the date of the posts.....most of these threads are several weeks old....what is said in the beginning may not be true later, as the op updates the thread, things change.

Just a good rule of thumb...start from the last page...work your way back a couple pages...then go to the beginning to get some context....but always remember, what was true at the beginning may not be true when you teeing the thread.
[Nook Color Android Development] survivor_evil:
ive been reading a lot and the terms you use are for people who already know how to do it. I unzipped the file, burn the img on the sdcard. When im going to flash the zip once im in CWR there ere two zips. which one is the one to choose? Ive tried both. With nookie-froyo-0.6.8.zip everything installs, the nook boots ok, but theres no market app on the system. is that ok? Am i doing something wrong? If i flash with the other one nookie-froyo-0.6.8.custom.1.zip it installs but when i reboot the nook get stuck on the android screen
[Nook Color Android Development] mroien:
I was wondering how you get the google apps on the ROM. I went through the all the steps and I don't have any google apps. How do I get the market downloaded?
[Nook Color Android Development] Chuck6993:
I used [SCRIPT] Honeycomb Install - Market, GMail, Talk, Contacts, Maps I know it shows its for honeycomb but it works for Froyo too.
[Nook Color Android Development] Chuck6993:
double post.
[Nook Color Android Development] brendel:
You want to flash the custom.1.zip. It flashes everything. As for it getting stuck at the android screen, it's probably because of the 1.1ghz kernel that's also part of the customization. You'll have to flash the 1.0ghz kernel on it. My nook doesn't run reliably on 1.1ghz, so I get the same issue when it's using that kernel.
[Nook Color Android Development] simon.ponder:
Google Talk

After applying the update, within a few hours, I now keep getting a Google talk not authenticated error and the market stopped downloading.

EDIT - I flashed an old vending.apk I had on dropbox, and it seemed to fix the issue.

EDIT - And then shortly thereafter, same issue. So it appears it is a temporary fix, until Google talk tries to authenticate again.
[Nook Color Android Development] brianf21:
Can you upload it? Thanks. I am going to update the image with the new kernel.

I'm having intermittent problems with YouTube videos. Sometimes they play and other times all I will get is sound and I can not stop or pause playback. This occurs using the stock browser, Dolphin and the YouTube app itself.

[Nook Color Android Development] brianf21:
I just updated the image with the latest kernel. On the last image, I forgot to remove Cicada's zip file and it cause some confusion. This should be easier to follow. Market is still screwy, not much I can do about that.
[Nook Color Android Development] Snyperx:
I got it flashed with the patch installed. I am now having an issue installed apps I have purchased from the market. The main one is JuiceDefender/UltimateJuice. It won't download and install and I did the market fix already. Any idea? Thanks!!

I have ClockworkMod Recovery

3.0.0.5

How do I get

3.0.0.6

and install it ? I tried to update via RomManager and it said it updated to

3.0.0.7

....but it still shows as

3.0.0.5

In Clockwork. ??!?? Help !
[Nook Color Android Development] brianf21:
The ROM Manager is version 3.0.0.7

The ClockworkMod Recovery that ROM Manager installs on the internal memory is 3.0.0.5

The ClockworkMod Recovery version that is on the sdcard that installed this image is 3.0.0.6

I am not going to install 3.0.0.6 on the internal memory until I see some feedback from others. It uses ext4 and I don't know what effect that will have on all this ROMs flowing around.
[Nook Color Android Development] brianf21:
Google filters out some the apps depending on the phone and phone service. We don't have a phone or a phone service, so the only solution is to download the apps by other means and use adb to install them.
[Nook Color Android Development] DalSegno:
I've just tried to install the newest one, and I'm just getting past the boot animation to "process system is not responding".

Tried reflashing, same effect. Any ideas?
[Nook Color Android Development] brianf21:
Did you format your cache?
[Nook Color Android Development] DalSegno:
I did at one point - but I noticed that the installation process asks you to do it after you install the image, but the instructions on the first page ask you to do it earlier, before the actual installation - which way is correct?
[Nook Color Android Development] brianf21:
Either will work.

[Nook Color Android Development] tomsawyer14:
I've downloaded the new build(0.6.8.2) from two different sources and I can't burn the image, it gives an error. The download's a bit smaller than the last 2, thinking maybe it's incomplete.
[Nook Color Android Development] brianf21:
What program are you using to burn it?

Try this, http://www.winimage.com/ to burn to the sdcard.
[Nook Color Android Development] Lancealot:
The new update flashed great! No problems here. Thank you again OP!
[Nook Color Android Development] brianf21:
No, install flash first before clearing the market flash or deleting the framework data. Still the same market though.
[Nook Color Android Development] tomsawyer14:
Been using win32diskimager without issue. Guess I'll try what you suggested.
[Nook Color Android Development] DalSegno:
It's all working great now! thanks for your help and your work!
[Nook Color Android Development] tomsawyer14:
That did work, I was just a bit confused when Winimage told me it needed to resize the image. Using a 2GB card if that matters.

Anyway flashing now, thanks for the tip and your hard work.

With this new release I noticed we no longer have to format /data. Why is that? What changed? Thanks.

[Nook Color Android Development] unu$ual:

Oh and ive had to reboot a few times, after going to sleep it is unable to wake up. Any ideas for that one?
[Nook Color Android Development] Snyperx:
brianf21,

Add me to the list of market issues. I also am unable to download from the market. I did the market fix a couple of times, but that did not resolve the issue this time around. Any ideas?

Also, great work!! Really like the new boot/load screen. ROM seems really fast and is working very well as a daily driver minus the current market issues.
[Nook Color Android Development] zhiheng:
same here, has market problem, won't download.

everything works great except market, thanks
[Nook Color Android Development] tomsawyer14:
What I've done to get Market working is do the normal wipe of data and cache for Market, force quit Google Framework then fix permissions using ROM Manager. After all that reboot.

If that doesn't work, try wiping Cache again through Clockwork.
[Nook Color Android Development] zhiheng:
it worked for me, though have to wipe Cache again through Clockwork.

thanks
[Nook Color Android Development] quikt:
Thanks that fixed it for me.

Some text windows open to full screen is there anyway to prevent this?
[Nook Color Android Development] brianf21:
That is the only thing i can of. I think it is the sdcard. How was it formated?
[Nook Color Android Development] sec6:
I think fat32.

It is working great and the flash 10.1 is amazing, but until I know more of what I'm doing, I'll wait a little while to try again. I'm going into a boot loop right now and hopefully after it does this eight times, it will install back to factory specs.

It's alive again.
[Nook Color Android Development] more_xda:
Ok just installed it. sdcard mounts now.

Market however does not show all apps, even after a clear cache and google framework data wipe. I am trying to install dolphin HD browser and update the google voice app and neither of those show up. Will this need the vending apk mod to work?

Thanks brian for your hard work. This is the most noob and user friendly version of froyo I have come across for the nook. Like the way softkeys comes up with the n button.
[Nook Color Android Development] more_xda:
The boot repartition zip should work. You may have to reinstall the customized froyo zip afterward.
[Nook Color Android Development] sec6:
Worked fine. Thanks.
[Nook Color Android Development] zappaziz:
Burned on Windows 7. First imaging hung up at boot (skull and crossbones). booted to sd again, this time formatted system,data,boot then applied image and everything is perfect.

As usual needed to clear market and google framework for all apps to show but other than that no issues.

big thanks Brianf21!
[Nook Color Android Development] huemedia:
Im finding the tactile response really laggy. Any ideas why this might be happenning or is it a froyo issue.

Thanks in advance
[Nook Color Android Development] more_xda:
Does google voice and dolphin hd browser show up in your market?
[Nook Color Android Development] zappaziz:
yes after doing the clearing of cache they do

Settings->Applications->Manage Applications-> Market->Clear Cache (NOT DATA!)

then

Settings->Applications->Manage Applications-> Google Services Framework -> Clear Data -> Force Close

reboot

Try to lock, wait then unlock to get rid of lag.
[Nook Color Android Development] zappaziz:

Download the kernel in that thread. Then put your burned sdcard in a reader and plug it into your computer. Open it up and replace the uImage with the new one you just downloaded. Then put the sdcard back in your nook and reboot it. You should reboot into CW recovery, and then just flash the zip again.
[Nook Color Android Development] zappaziz:
excellent!
[Nook Color Android Development] samuelhalff:
You'll find a flashable overclocked kernel on my froyo on emmc thread.

/cache permission problem with Market

First, thanks for the great work! :)

I picked up the 0.6.8.2 yesterday and the installation was flawless. However, I was having similar experience as some other users. Market was not able to download at all.

It's my first time doing debugging, so please let me know if you need more info. I don't have the adb logcat trace with me (I can try to reproduce it later if you want them)

My problem was 2 fold,

1) GTalkService is failing and gTalk cannot sign in

Debug: GTalkServiceHelper in Market was complaining (I can capture trace next time it happens again)

Solution: I did a few things (resetting password on gmail, clearing all data and caches in Market, Google Framework, Google Login Service, Download Manager) and somehow magically the error message went away

2) /cache is not mounted properly

Debug:

02-21 04:09:57.231: DEBUG/DownloadManager(1111): download aborted - not enough free space in internal storage

Solution: mounted /dev/block/mmcblk0p7 as ext4 using adb (rw,nosuid,noatime,nodiratime). Probably just a minor fix in init.rc.

So that fixed the problems in Market for me.

Cheers,

Gary
[Nook Color Android Development] nhatdung:

Brian i was curious does this overwrite u.boot.bin? I was thinking of using the dual boot moving my stock to dual boot partition and flashing this to emmc but if this overwrites uboot i will lose dual boot. No big deal if it does just curious before i try.

[Nook Color Android Development] tony1208:
2) /cache is not mounted properly

Debug:

02-21 04:09:57.231: DEBUG/DownloadManager(1111): download aborted - not enough free space in internal storage

Solution: mounted /dev/block/mmcblk0p7 as ext4 using adb (rw,nosuid,noatime,nodiratime).

im lost how...

noobie way of doing this plz..step by step ,im sorry im lost...just trying to fix my market
[Nook Color Android Development] lightsmoke:
I did

mount -t ext4 -o rw,nosuid,nodev,noatime,nodiratime /dev/block/mmcblk0p7 /cache

For a noobie way, please wait for Brian to confirm the problem and fix the image.

But if you are adventurous, go download the android SDK, follow the instructions to set it up. The tool is called adb. To get to the shell, do "adb shell" and type the above command. If you don't know what I am talking about here, then please wait for a new image.

[Nook Color Android Development] DalSegno:
Trying to format in rom manager appears to be successful, but upon exiting recovery there are 4 "cant mount /cache..." errors, which makes me think it hasnt actually worked successfully.
[Nook Color Android Development] compuguy1088:
Really like this customized nookie froyo. One issue though: certain apps do not show up on the market, including firefox mobile, tank hero, and angry birds. I have done the market location/app fix (wipe cache for market and stop, stop google services, and wipe data, reboot). Minus this issue, it is running great! :D

Edit: I think this is related to certain apks or elements removed from the rom, which cicada tweaked or fixed originally in 0.67.....

Edit2: having an issue with mediaserver and video overlays in youtube. Audio plays back fine, but the video overlay doesn't seem to work. The ui in youtube freezes, with the first frame in the youtube video being visible. Mediaserver must be killed in order to stop audio playback.

Edit 3: here is a logcat of the issue, and the subsequent attempt to kill mediaserver, resulting in the rebooting and boot looping: http://compuguy.pastebin.com/NYjX83cG

So facebook will install, but when you try to do anything facebook, such as add widget or add sync account, or even launch app, it doesn't crash, it just jumps to whatever screen you were on before.

Also, any progress on a permanent fix for the market.

Market won't work

Ok guys, I have tried for 2 days to get the Market to work to no avail...tried every method mentioned in this forum. It worked briefly by uninstalling an App and then going back and downloading another App but that was it....

I really like Froyo 0.6.8

I already re-flash the Rom Image a couple of times, last time I wiped every possible thing before re-flashing, still no luck....

Help

P.S. Never mind...after a second "Format Cache" Market is working........still some Apps like Google Sky Map, Chase, etc not showing

Great!

You really make it easy for Nookdroid users!

Thanks for this Brian! I'm a fan of your Nookiefroyo, the most i like is the WALLPAPERS!!

Cache?got no problem, jst followed advice. youtube?ill still be testing on this. else, Great customization!
[Nook Color Android Development] GrillMouster:
To fix market download problems I force stopped Market, cleared its cache and data. Did the same for Google Framework Services. Then in ROM Manager I fixed permissions, rebooted to recovery. In recovery I formatted cache. I got the four unable to mount cache messages that others reported, but the Market works.

However, I'm still having trouble playing both YouTube videos and regular mp4 video podcasts in DoggCatcher. The video freezes up almost immediately, but the audio continues and the only way to get it to stop is to power down the device.
[Nook Color Android Development] :
The first time I ran through and did this I neglected to fix permissions. Now that I've done this again (correctly) the Market is working!
