put Vending.apk (and whatever else) in the platform-tools folder.

the latest update of the SDK moved the adb to the platform-tools folder, previously it was in tools.

Why not just register? It's free and only takes 2 minutes. I haven't received any spam emails or anything like that from them. You could have been registered and downloading by now
[Nook Color Android Development] Synssins:
Sure..

I am providing a full mirror for the Honeycomb build, and those files...

Honeycomb is uploading as we speak..

I have also attached the files here.

FYI, the only file that worked for me was the 7zip file, the torrent and various mirrored downloads yielded a 0 byte file.
[Nook Color Android Development] chuffykow:
Sounds like an issue with virus scanning software blocking .zips from downloading.

Thanks, I did register, but the password email is taking forever to get back to me. Also working on uploading a video of the NC running the overclock Kernel with Honeycomb.

No just its picky and wants winrar, 7zip makes the 0data file.

You know - my artchive manager in ubuntu also displayed the file as being 0 bytes - but once i unpacked it, the full .img file was there and working..

Working on it for you.

Anyone want to help? I keep getting "No such file or directory" in the mac terminal but its clearly on the desktop. My card reader is acting up so Im doing this strait through the Nook. I got the same thing through my Evo too...
[Nook Color Android Development] deolarte:
ok the image is extremly simple to install, i just cannot get the adb to work and recognize my device. So mad, im giving up. I also tries dropbox no luck since i have sd card. Maybe tommorow there will be a flashable versions, I dream, great work though and thanks.
[Nook Color Android Development] jleecong:
I'm glad at least a few people found it useful. I hate WinRAR (just my opinion, if you like it good for you).
[Nook Color Android Development] Novarider:
What are you trying to do? Are you installing APKs or what?
[Nook Color Android Development] SpenserS:
Just simply trying to write the nookhoney.img to the sd card! So simple but I just keep getting the same thing.

GREAT JOB OP!!!

I was able to burn this flawlessly to my SD card, and it did not take a ridiculous amount to boot up ( 8 minutes??!!??). The only issue is that when i connect the nook to my Mac, it does nothing, so im not able to push anything to it. Anyone have any suggestions?

Besides that, Honeycomb looks really cool!!!

Honeycomb and Overclock

Here you guys go - video showing the NC running Honeycomb with dalvingrin's overclock kernel in place.

In other news, Market still refuses to open - it sat there for like 2-3 minutes on the white "loading" screen

EDIT: Total Fail at putting the youtube clip up, I'll mak a second post
[Nook Color Android Development] smcmanus:
Ok. I followed the instructions posted in the Mac OSX root Nook Color thread (http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=857511) to dd the image to my 8gb sd card. Unfortunately, I've yet to see it actually finish the dd. If I Ctrl+C on it, it shows me how much it's written, and it looks like its written the partitions (it even mounts the boot partition in Finder), however, when I try it in my NC, it just gets to the Android loading screen, and doesn't get past that.

That all said, I have a couple questions:

1. For those of you doing this on a Mac, how long did it take to write all the files? I saw someone earlier said about 14 minutes, but on this go through, i'm sitting at about 25 minutes.

2. How long does it actually take for HC to boot on this, running straight from the sd card?

Loading times on mine is about 30 seconds - 1 minute. Barely even noticeable difference between it and stock
[Nook Color Android Development] ictguy78:
I had the same problem with Market (actually still do). I get around it by using what I think is the settings button (I think it's the 4th softkey from the left on the bottom navigation panel) while the Market is attempting to load. I can use Search and it'll search and My Apps will pull up most of my apps. I've been able to install/uninstall even though I can't get to the main "homepage" of the Market.
[Nook Color Android Development] jleecong:
That is the "Menu" button.

Had the android_ thing stuck forever so I switched cards to my Class 2 16gb card. Runs smoothly. I like the browser app and the quick buttons labs.

Great job deeper-blue!
[Nook Color Android Development] smcmanus:
I Ctrl+c'd it again, it had only gotten halfway through the burn process in ~25 minutes. Either way, it booted just fine after this try. Thanks :)

[Nook Color Android Development] stwallman:

2.6.29 kernel on Honeycomb looks like an oddity on Honeycomb. It was proven not good enough even for Froyo/Gingerbread. What was the kernel version of DB's original build?

Gaming on the NC-Honey

Ok, after a hokey download procedure, Fruit Ninja is working pretty well. Took a second or two to actually recognize my finger on the screen, but after that, working quite well, considering it's being booted from the SD.

Trying out other apps, but if the downloads keep going this slow, it's gonna take a while...
[Nook Color Android Development] barrosd12:
Good question aludal, I didn't check before I tried the OC kernel. It was running considerably slower without it.
[Nook Color Android Development] airboss:
I had the same issue. It had to do with the extraction of the img file. When using WinRAR, it originally created a smaller file and I had issues (Like 8 MB) When it re-extracted to 4Gb, it ran great
[Nook Color Android Development] stwallman:
Are you playing Fruit Ninja with the wireless turned on ? When I had it turned on the rest of the NC ran really slow (including FN).
[Nook Color Android Development] dalingrin:
All kernels for the Nook Color are 2.6.29 right now. We don't have source for anything newer and porting our device files from *.29 to *.3x is a big job. Unless B&N release updated kernel source we will be using 2.6.29 for Honeycomb/CM8 when it is released.

There isn't a major functional difference between *.29 and *.35 for android. However, the source structure is considerably different making it difficult to port.
[Nook Color Android Development] Divine_Madcat:
DB's was also 2.6.29 - from my understanding, it was just the B&N 1.10 stock kernel. Like others, i am surprised at how well .29 runs this, and can only await future developments.

Hopefully as work on things like CM7 keeps going, the improved later kernel sources can be used for things like this, thus hopefully yielding speed and stability improvements. But this work isn't easy, and won't come over night, so hang in there. :)

From an iOS Developer and User...the "Enemy" ;)

To the intrepid soul that undertook this endeavour:

I just have to say congratulations, and thank you :)

I pulled the Nook Color out just to do this and for a hack-from-preview-off-an-sd-card, I'm gonna just go ahead and say that You Sir, Rock.

Great job, incredible dedication and a touch of un-sanity :)

Now...how do I get this thing onto the internal flash, so i can *really* show off? :)

-K
[Nook Color Android Development] kitzuki:
all i can say is wow
[Nook Color Android Development] barrosd12:
As cool as it would be to flash this to EMMC, right now I don't think it's quite ready for primetime yet. The devs on here (who rock, btw) need to get their hands on full 3.0 source, which is being released tomorrow. There's a lot of issues to overcome to get the flash onto internal memory just right, so expect that sometime in the coming weeks.

Hopefully we get access to CM7 too, that would also be awesome

How is everyone syncing accounts? I'm trying to download a couple of already bought apps from the market... but When I add an account, it doesnt give me the option to sync anything. I only could get e-mail to sync, but just e-mail.

[Nook Color Android Development] tunwear:
Which version of winimage are you all using? I finally got it to extract properly, but winimage keeps saying "error reading file". I've downloaded the zip and 7zip version. Don't get how you all can do it fine and I'm having problems. Bleh I don't have a virus scan on either.
[Nook Color Android Development] Divine_Madcat:
For anyone using it - anyone else really impressed with the UI (look and feel) of this system? I have to say, while i love android, the stock L&F had grown a bit old for me. But HC has really spruced things up, and all the subtle little things are really nice (neat "lighting" effects, nice transitions, etc).... Google really has a winner on their hands i think...
[Nook Color Android Development] slugbug2010:
How would you do this if you had 2 sd cards?

My 8gb class 2 has decad3nce on it. I have a brand new 4 gb class 4.

Would you try HC on the new 4gb sd or would you move your current "stuff" to the 4gb and put HC on the 8gb?

[Nook Color Android Development] Paul22000:
What I don't understand is how it's taking the CyanogenMod team weeks (months?) to get 2.3 working, and haven't released (or even shown) anything?

And then out of the blue (pardon the pun hah :D), one person gets Android 3.0 working in a matter of days.

Wow!

I guess the 2.3 project is dead before even having showing anything?
[Nook Color Android Development] :
CM doesn't release hacked up roms. They use AOSP and finalized drivers for official releases.

As for 2.3 being dead, probably. I have a gut feeling nexus S will be the only device to ever have 2.3 "officially". Xoom releases on Feb 17th....so does AOSP. =D
[Nook Color Android Development] Iridox:
There are a LOT of devices in CM7's stable. In order for them to launch even an RC, each has to be working or near-working, which takes a lot of effort.

Also, from what I understand, Gingerbread has a few critical bugs that the CM team is attempting to fix before committing to a formal release. It's a choice not to put it out now, not a lack of skill or talent.
[Nook Color Android Development] MTC44:
CyanogenMod is famous for only releasing ROM when it is fully functionally. The degree of functionality of this HC port is nowhere near "CM" ready.

[Nook Color Android Development] aludal:
Sorry, was out of the thread to re-fuel (my fuel is Pilzner Urquell, don't consider it a plug -- because it IS a plug, lol)

Oh thank you, barrosd12, for noticing. I continue the coverage in my blog fineoils.blogspot.com , you (and everyone "nookie") might find some interesting stuff there.

I would love to have a clip of more hi-rez, with no blur, fixed focus, fixed camcorder, never moving NC itself in variants:

-- an original DB build, plus YouTube, plus (if it installs AND works) Flash 10.1

-- are there any OC'ed kernel of 2.6.32 and after? to flash on top of DB's Honey. If not, then just please reshoot what you have, make it in focus, and see millions of downloads of your clip from YouTube.

I'm serious, man...

Feel free to comment here and/or in my blog.

Anyone else getting weird, random red outlines on the screen. It's pretty intermittent.
[Nook Color Android Development] stwallman:
Pretty regularly here as well. No clue what it means though.
[Nook Color Android Development] TKEMerph:
I'm guessing thats something to do with bugs in the code, or lag... Im not an expert.. but when it happens it usually means its a bug... Remember this is a developmental build :P
[Nook Color Android Development] nemith:
For one CM is from source and actually it will look like we we able to do a full rom without any vendor proprietary blobs!

Secondly, where do you think the "one guy" got some of his binaries from? You guessed it, the CM7 port.

The CM7 port is going through and hopefully we'll have something for everyone soon. Until then hang tight and enjoy the sdk rip.

(P.S: Getting CM7 working well will mean it will be a lot easier getting a AOSP based HC rom working as well... fully)
[Nook Color Android Development] SpenserS:
Im pretty sure its saying that it is not allowed or something. Has to do with the sdk emulator from what I saw on a video preview.

Anyone want to pm me some help? I keep getting "dd: nookhoney.img: No such file or directory" in my terminal when trying to burn the .img file to the sd card...Ive tried using my Nook, Evo, and G1 with no luck to getting the file on my card..I have a microsd card reader but it isnt taking my 8gb card, only all my other 1gb cards for some reason. This is getting really old!
[Nook Color Android Development] barrosd12:
Thanks! I'll try getting a better clip up. The real issue right now is that I have no idea how to get Flash or Youtube working - Market isn't cooperating as much as I'd like it to, things are generally running sluggish in there for some reason and downloads are still taking forever.

I could reflash with the original kernel and show you the difference.

Love your blog btw - whenever rooting the NC first started, it was your stuff that made me want to buy one.
[Nook Color Android Development] nemith:
I was in prauge this Fall and drank copius ammounts of Pilzner Urquell. Good stuff. Cool Factory tour too.

God i wish. There is a lot of changes to the arm and omap stuff in 2.6.32 which make porting the B&N sources over pretty difficult, the CM7 project has been getting by by actually back porting stuff from .32 into the .29 tree which has been working ok so far. No OC at this point though (first a fully working rom, then nightlies, then OC :))

If anyone has some kernel skills and could lend a hand with porting to .32 or .35 it would help both of these projects immensely.

Ok, Youtube is working (in that it loads), but no sound (which is obvious).

The weird part is that not only is there no sound, there's also no video... I suppose this could be an issue related to the lack of Flash on here.
[Nook Color Android Development] dalingrin:
Yes. I know you think its crazy we haven't released CM7 yet but you have to understand there is more to it than:

make Gingerbread
make install

This honeycomb port is using some of the work that has been done with the CM7 project. When real honeycomb source releases all/most of the work we've done so far for CM7 will apply there too.
[Nook Color Android Development] barrosd12:
That's excellent news dalingrin, keep up the good work!

Those of us that love CM know better than to ask for an ETA, it'll be done when it's done and it'll be awesome, if the CM7 nightly I'm running on my EVO is any indication
[Nook Color Android Development] deolarte:
would it be possible to open the image file and insert apostle directly before booting the SD card? Since I can't get adb to work, would this be possible?

If someone figures out what the story is with the Calendar, let us know. Thanks!

[Nook Color Android Development] aludal:
Oh really? Thank you so much... I would need to ask B&N for some commission for the NCs sold after people have read something out of my blog. Just kiddin' ... (or not, lol. Since Google has kicked me out from their AdSense program, I don't get a single penny for my love of tablets -- preferrably RIM Playbook, but Honey NC, for now)

Ah, forget about Flash for now (though try to adb install and use EVO's "HQ" YouTube, as per my post in my blog a month ago -- not the "signed_YouTube"as it's quite broken for the NC)

As for Market not cooperating, maybe a "Verizon" edit in build.prop could help? or rolling back to earlier Vending.apk version?

In any case, hopefully there will be a breakthrough in DSP/SGX acceleration soon.

goolocalizations.blogspot.com <-- for some 2005 predictions fun
[Nook Color Android Development] fattire:
That's right. There could have been a release in early Jan but while the demo video would have been neato, the build itself would have been WAY too early. And then it would have been a month of "IS IT READY? IS IT READY NOW? Why isn't there sound? Where's the accelerometer? Why is the keyboard so screwy?" etc etc.

CM has a rule not to release until it's 100% hardware compliant-- that's how CM got a reputation for being so great. That said, the nook CM team has been working with blue in the last few days, so what you're seeing in his release today has several parts from cm7 in it (as he noted in the original post). CM7 also does have sound working, ext4 support, and other hardware and build-process fixes that were impossible to migrate in blue's timeframe (or did not apply w/o the source). Those will be in cm7 (it's two bugs away from full hardware support), and when the source is released for honeycomb, I've no doubt the work will be leveraged into that quickly. Which is good because as you can see, HC and NC fit together very well.

In other words, this has been time well spent, and you're seeing some of the fruits of that project today.

Seem i have a problem booting back into rooted nook. I have to boot into clockwork first then do a reboot in orfder to boot "stock". The honey sd boots fine. Id have to assume that the boot partition has been altered and that restoring from a nandroid would fix things as well as a reformat.

Anyone else having this problem?
