[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] troyy0206:
I tried several generic chargers from eBay on the iPhone and HTC Aria and results varied with this symptom, but most of them caused this type of issue. What I would see mostly was erratic responses from the screen while it was plugged in, i.e. the screen would jump around, scroll too far, other apps would open and calibration would be all screwy. Unplug the charger and it would be fine. I suspect the voltage is not accurate and/or it's not regulated enough. I have used several other chargers with the Captivate, Aria and a couple other phones (even mini-usb with micro-usb adapters) and they all seem fine as long as they were name brand, like Motorola, Blackberry, etc. I somehow ended up with several of those adapters so I was able to use all of my mini-usb chargers and trashed the generics from eBay ;)
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] francous:
hmmm that makes sense.. I mean it was only 98 cents for all 3 (wall charger, car charger and usb cable) so I guess there had to be some catch lol.. Tss I'll never order a generic charger again -_-.. Thanks for the help!

[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] goosefraba91:
Hey guys,

I'm having a little bit of trouble flashing the newest perception ROM to my phone. I have already rooted it and put Perception 9 with RomManager and everything, but I was wanting to get the latest version on my phone. The only problem is that I am having trouble using ODIN to flash to stock. Since I have a mac, I am having to use my old dinosaur Sony Vaio with XP. I am able to get it into boot mode (Clockwork Mod Recovery), but when I start to run ODIN, it gets stuck on the file analysis every time. So, I guess I am just curious if there is another way that I can get Perception 10.3 on my phone without ODIN, or if there is something that I can do to get it past the file analysis stage. If anybody could help with this it would be great.

Thanks
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] yokozuna82:
You can flash clockwork recovery right over the old perception you don't need to us Odin
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] goosefraba91:
Okay, so how would I do that? The only thing that I'm concerned about is that I didn't flash to stock when I first installed Perception 9, so I don't know if that's going to cause problems or not.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] zelendel:
Your issue with odin is that you are trying to flash stock from recovery and not Download like you should. Shut the phone off and and start odin hold both volume buttons in and plug in USB this will get you to download and then you can flash stock.

To flash right over just copy new zip to phone mem and flash like normal from recovery
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] goosefraba91:
Alright thanks, that worked great. I've got everything up and running now.

Since I have less than 10 posts, I cannot post this to the dev forum. After installing the Adam ROM on my G Tablet, the status bar at top has a flashing exclamation point, and the status bar itself covers a part of the screen. Is there a way to auto hide the status bar?
[G Tablet General] palagai:
you can get an elaborated info about the ! from thebadfrog.

Here is how you can fix this, tap the battery icon on the top left corner.

also interested in this....
[Nook Color Android Development] pts69666:
Couldn't you just install one of the ROM's to the SD card and take out the modded ROM SD card when you want to boot into stock?
[Nook Color Android Development] fwdixon:
tried that, wouldn't boot off the card (although most likely the I somehow screwed up the image)
[Nook Color Android Development] kdb424:
Yea, all you need to do is remove the card to boot into stack, or keep it in to boot to that ROM. I would however like to see something like this. I hate removing my card all of the time (yes I complain a lot haha), though I can tolerate. I mainly need a way to use an OS on the SD and still be able to use some of that space for the stock OS when I decide to boot that. Hopefully someone knows what I mean.
[Nook Color Android Development] Homer_S_xda:
Total guess here, does this need a custom bootloader to choose the right set of boot partitions?

Homer
[Nook Color Android Development] simon.ponder:
sdcard removal

I complain also about removing the sdcard as well, maybe it is where it is placed on the nook.
[Nook Color Android Development] philburkhardt:
I agree, SD card placement could be better. But, it could also be A LOT worse.

On my EVO, I have to take off the battery door and remove the battery to get to my SD card. Talk about a pain. :mad:
[Nook Color Android Development] rookie1:
This is about half-an-hour hack job and totally untested. Unfortunately I don't have a SD card handy to test. If you are brave enough, try to replace the u-boot.bin on your nookie froyo SD card using the attached file (remember to backup your original). Pressing Home ('n' button) while boot up should skip booting from SD.

ps the stock ROM will mount 1st partition on SD to /sdcard. If your SD card is nookie froyo, you don't have much space on your 1st partition.

pps This is modified base on my eMMC dualboot code. I've changed the recovery key combo to VolUp + VolDown. If you need to go to recovery and have this u-boot.bin on your SD card, remember the key combo change!
[Nook Color Android Development] fwdixon:
Thx! I'll test it when I get done screwing around with Honeycomb :D
[Nook Color Android Development] Homer_S_xda:
I'm going to fire it down later today. Here is the fix in another thread to share the same partition on the SDCard. Requires root or some skills.

UPDATE: Backed up stock NF u-boot.img and replaced. As-is boot is to SDCard. Boot with home key ("n") pressed is to internal. Seems to work as advertised! Noted that you get the non-stock kernel boot image followed by the stock animation. Is that because it is doing a chroot in there? Is the kernel used the one on the SDCard? Excellent work BTW.

Homer
[Nook Color Android Development] Mytos-xda:
would this work with a honeycomb sd image?
[Nook Color Android Development] soonereng:
This is what I have been wanting for a couple weeks now. Thank you!

How hard would it be to reverse it so that it boots to SD when N is pushed and internal by default?

Yes it does on mine.
[Nook Color Android Development] MДЯCЦSДИT:
Trying with honeycomb l8r
[Nook Color Android Development] phunzoid:
yes, this would be a nice option :D
[Nook Color Android Development] japzone:
Ok this sounds like a Newb Question but I only got back into coding recently and I forget how to edit these BIN files. Any Help?
[Nook Color Android Development] fwdixon:
Loaded it on my honeycomb sd and nondual boot. Holding n brought up the factory reset option.

Sent from my honeycomb-powered Nookcolor.
[Nook Color Android Development] soonereng:
I have it working on HC v02 and v03. And it works fine.

Sounds like you may not have overwitten the original u-boot.bin on the SD since it did the default action for "n"?
[Nook Color Android Development] fwdixon:
no, actually I was holding both the power and n buttons. If i press-n-hold n and press-n-release power it works great.

Silly noob here is all :D
[Nook Color Android Development] DrewLGT:
when i press and hold n while its booting, i get the stock boot animation for just a second, then it goes to clockwork recovery.
[Nook Color Android Development] japzone:
Try Releasing N as soon as Stock Animation appears
[Nook Color Android Development] aztigen22:
ill be giving this a go! feedback soon...
[Nook Color Android Development] Ophbalance:
I get the same result... however, I'm using the newly released 6.6 Froyo image, so maybe that's at fault? I've copied over u-boot twice, but no matter if I hold N for 3 seconds or until I see the giant N, it still brings me into recovery.
[Nook Color Android Development] Ophbalance:
One other thing to note, I've changed the Eclair vold.conf to load the nookie SDCARD at partition 4, if that makes any difference.
[Nook Color Android Development] soonereng:
Must be the CWR then. I don't have CWR but I have the vold.conf mod and it works for me on HC v2 & v3 and NF 0.6.6.
[Nook Color Android Development] Ophbalance:
You don't have CWR installed to Eclair on emmc, correct?
[Nook Color Android Development] soonereng:
That is correct.
[Nook Color Android Development] Ophbalance:
Bugger... oh well, at the very least I now get the same SDCARD no matter which install I choose, so I guess I can live with the pain of having to pull the card out to boot Eclair. I just wish I didn't have to as my nook lives in an Easel case.
[Nook Color Android Development] japzone:
I'm using this on NF 0.6.6 and it works fine, but as stated in the Thread's Title I have not Rooted my Stock.

It seems CWR on Rooted Nooks uses the Home button for Recovery Mode so whenever someone tries to Boot to Stock it goes to Recovery. Rooted users with CWR will have to change how their Recovery Boots if they wish to use this.
[Nook Color Android Development] Ophbalance:
Out of curiosity... any idea how to do that?
[Nook Color Android Development] fwdixon:
Not exactly. The script changes the CWR shortcut to both volume keys. This was accidentally verified when pressing both power+n brought up the stock factory reset. Thee key is press and hold n while press and releasing power. It works flawlessly.

What does not work is booting into CWR if it's loaded on the emmc. You can boot to factory reset (which will fail if rooted), rooted stock (or nonrooted stock), sd card CWR, and SD card rom.
[Nook Color Android Development] bedoig:
It's been asked before, but would it be possible to reverse it so that the normal behavior is to boot to stock while holding 'N' would boot from SD?

Is it possible to edit the posted u-boot.bin to achieve this, or does it have to be compiled from source?

My wife uses the Nook a lot so it would be ideal for me if it booted to stock without intervention. Then I could manually boot into whatever I'm playing with by holding N instead of constantly swapping SD cards.

Hmm... I feel your pain. I'm working on some changes on my Boot menu, this is a great use case to keep in mind.

I guess the implementation could be to have a small config file on the bcb partition (mmcblk0p2) which decides the default boot device. Booting with the "n" pressed brings the boot menu for advanced booting.

The downside is... well I can't see any? does anyone?
[Nook Color Android Development] japzone:
There's also another that uses a config file instead by rookie1. Search for the thread "u-boot"(there's some other things in the name but it should be the only one with that in it's name)

Whatever anyone does do not use the recovery it doesn't do what it supposed to, it confuses things and tries to rewrite the nook itself instead of the sdcard.....

Will be editing my OP to a Complete HowTo for all u-boot methods soon.
[Nook Color Android Development] IndivisibleP:
I am wondering if anyone has a few good (or at least one) sd builds they would like to recommend. I have installed brianf21's nookie froyo 0.6.8 from SD but I couldn't get the market to work. I saw that various people were resolving it through out the thread but the few things that I tried didn't work for me.

Anyway I don't mind honeycomb or froyo, just preferably something with an overclock. If the market and youtube work that should suffice.

Thanks in advance to whatever suggestions may come in.

Edit: actually I must be missing something. I just went through all 130+ threads in the Android Development section for the NC and the nookie froyo rom I had already mentioned, that didnt work for me, was the only one I could find. Oh yes, I forgot deeperblues HC rom also runs off SD. I have tried that but again I didn't figure out how to get the market running. Also, at least the version I tried, seemed a bit premature for regular use. There must be more right? Am I just blind or what's going on? Sorry for being so clueless...
[Nook Color Android Development] japzone:
You should post a question like this in the General forum not in a Topic in the Dev forum.

But to be nice I'll tell you that I reccomend using the Clean Nookie Froyo ROM from the original Dev. For all the instructions you need just go to http://nookdevs.com/Portal:NookColor. The steps for installing gApps and Market are also there.

This is EXACTLY what i was seeking, so I can let my kids use the "safe" BN space and I can use the froyo boot. Thanks!!!

Perfect as I just returned my NC to stock so I can check out the BN upgrade when it comes out. Now I can flip and not lose the damn SD card.

Hello, I am new to this forum so I suppose I will give a brief bio. I earned an Associates Degree in Computer Science from the Community College of the Air Force while serving on Active Duty as a "Computer Programmer" from 2004 to 2010. Most of my duties on the job involved website development, server side scripting and databases. I started learning network engineering and security in the past 3 or 4 years. I'm familiar with being a go-to for fixing an unrelated FUBAR project from a random language where you have to just google the syntax and methods until you get the results your boss asked for. I've also dabbled in .NET and so on.

Anyway, it is safe to say I know enough to be dangerous or better with everything from legacy assembly code to the trends of today while I have no clear specialty of expertise at this point. I am going to use the Post 9/11 Montgomery GI Bill to go back to college. I should know what I want to do by now but it is a unique opportunity where I may as well do any one thing as another. I like to avoid personal conversations and keep it about the development on forums. I got a nook color 1.01 and came here for some tips on rooting it, now here we are. I am interested to know what particular needs there may be for an intermediate developer that has no strict preference with where I begin just as long as I don't need very expensive new hardware, unless I wanted it anyway.

So, hello and nice to meet you. I look forward to finding a way to contribute. :)

You can start from building yourself a most powerful i7 (Ubuntu, or whatever your flavor) Linux box your $500 can buy. Generate the tool chain(s) for emulator/TI OMAP36xx SDK. Pull every piece of code published by TI for OMAP 36xx. Study all the free Android/Java/JS development books you can find, subscribe to all Android development forums and to GoogleGroups of the topics and irc channels.

Then, start building the 2.6.32, 2.6.35, 2.6.36 kernels for Android 3.x.

XDA Devs is not exactly the place where the Gurus of Android development explain and do tutelage for newbies, it's the place where they show their results. Read in my blog http://fineoils.blogspot.com about developments for NC and other tablets in condensed form, plus about stuff that is usually of no big interest here. Start from approx. Feb. 2010, this will take some time, lol.
[Nook Color General] Canary19:
Thank you for the outstanding advice. I have an Ubuntu machine on a first gen Phenom quad core which was starting to collect dust that would be perfect. When I get setup I need to find out what some good starter projects would be. I bet that someone here has a need that has been overlooked because the pros are busy on larger projects and I could take a stab at it. Any ideas?
[Nook Color General] miemens:
Welcome! I'm new to Android, so I can't help with anything too deep just yet (used linux exclusively for 7-8 years, so I'm catching on lol), but I can give you a list of a few common issues that people are having that I haven't really seen solved yet.

1. Touchscreen bugs out sometimes, requiring a quick trip to standby and back to fix. Happens to me regardless if I'm OCed or not.

2. System seems to randomly shut off and/or reboot for many. Has happened to me a handful of times, almost always when doing something cpu intensive, like launching Winamp or opening too many DolphinHD tabs.

3. Wifi for many people seems really flaky. Mine works fine 99% of the time.

4. Youtube doesn't like when you log in, requires a cache wipe to relaunch.

5. Screen sensitivity gets weird near the edges. There is an adb method to force a blind recalibration, but seems to have widely varying results.

6. Pull up menus on many apps ends up with white on white text making it unreadable.

I have no idea if any of those are relevant to you or if anyone else is already working on them or not. Hell, some might already be fixed in Froyo or even Eclair. Those are just a few things I see many posts about. I should mention that I'm on 1.0.1 rooted with no other tweaks. I also have a horrid case of strep throat and have been quarantined in my room alone on heavy meds for a few days, so I could be way off or babbling. Anyways, welcome to the forums and sorry for typing so much. I know I'm not nearly the novelist that that blog pimpin dude is. ;P
[Nook Color General] Canary19:
This is all good information and I appreciate the reply. I hope you get well soon. Strep throat and strep meds are no joke and you are extremely lucid all things considered, so don't worry one bit about that. You are running the same system that I have so please feel free to keep in touch with me about any issues, and I will let you know if I find a fix.

If you have some spare time I'd like to ask you some questions about using Linux for an exclusive PC; I keep juggling it with Windows rather than taking the time to find a fix for common petty problems like running Netflix. Right now my lazy fix for that is virtualboxing Windows.

Thanks again and feel better!

Hi, I need help with a boot animation I am making. I followed all the instructions for it and its still not working. I just get a black screen during boot where the animation was supposed to happen.

This is for my Nexus 1 btw running CM 6.1.1. the boot animation is basically a siege tank from Starcraft 2 setting up and then packing up again.

I placed the zip in /system/media

Each png is 180x135.

Can someone please look at the zip and see what I am doing wrong? it would REAAAAAALLY help.
[Android Themes] dully79:
More than likely your missing an empty line at the end of your desc.txt, common problem.
[Android Themes] demoneyes905:
Added extra line , didn't work :(

:(I added the extra line at the end of desc.txt and its still the same result. Ugh.... I have uploaded the new revised zip.
[Android Themes] ianreecej:
One problem that i had run into is that i was not zipping them in the least compressed format. make sure that you use fast(minimal) compression.
[Android Themes] demoneyes905:
Compression

Yeah, I tried it both ways with WinRar and 7-Zip and made sure it was set to "Store" as the minimal to no compression option.
[Android Themes] ianreecej:
Here is my suggestion. This is the desc.txt file i use for all mine and it works fine. Change the resolution in the file and try using that one.

Desc
[Android Themes] Tonicacid:
heres the bootanimation.zip with a changed desc.txt file
[Android Themes] demoneyes905:
YES!!!!!!!!!! ^.^

OMG Thank You!!!! It works perfectly now. I don't know what happened before. Now I am going to try to mess with the resolutions to see if I can get everything bigger and cleaner.

Do you by chance know if there is a limit to the size of the boot animation? I made it 8mb because I wanted to keep it lean and fast. If its around 25 mb, will that affect performance?
[Android Themes] ianreecej:
No Problem. The limit is really the space on your internal memory as far as i know. If you can fit it on there it should be fine. I know for myself with a droid incredible i can go to about 20 megabytes but that is only again due to my limited internal memory. If you were to move some apps to the sd card etc you can probably free more space.

Drop me a PM if you have questions or need a hand anytime.
[Android Themes] dully79:
Just had a look at your desc.txt and the problem was that all the info was on one line instead of seperate lines for each string of info

-RES +FPS

-NUMBER OF PLAYS + NAME OF FILE ( EACH FILE NEEDS ITS OWN LINE AND PLAY COMMAND)

-EMPTY LINE

Hope this helps you shed some light where you had your hiccup.

Also I found its the fps and image size that affects the animation.

If you have a high quality animation (KB/MB not res size) and a high fps it will struggle to render the images and result in sluggish playback. Try optimizing your images to squeeze that little bit extra out. 8-)
