I don't get what ext4 is... This is what I did and it worked perfect... Stock 1.0.1 -> Rooted 1.0.1 -> cwr emmc nookie froyo -> wipe everything with a monster cwr sd card, HC v4... Its worked perfect for me, with no issues...

Sent from one of those missing Droids
[Nook Color Android Development] luigi90210:
ext4 is a partition type like fat32 and ntfs
[Nook Color Android Development] jonrobertd:
Exact same procedure here. No Problems either

Quick Question towards everyone who has battery drain issues while sleeping:

Are you using a live wallpaper?

Noticed after 9 hours my battery was at 85% from a full charge with a picture wallpaper and mild use.

Put a live WP on and set it down. An hour later I picked it up and it had went from 85% to 68% with no use just a live WP and sleeping.

May just be me, but it seems like it might be an issue.
[Nook Color Android Development] JWhip804:
Sorry if these questions have been answered but its 3am and i am falling asleep looking through posts trying to find answer lol.

1. Installed HC on NC but do not have SuperUser so im assuming i dont have root?

2. Was gonna try to download SU but of course the market WILL NOT download a single app. "Download Unsuccessful" EVERY time. Is there a fix for this?

And if you plan on replyin to this to tell me to check the forums and blah blah blah, then kindly aquire a screw driver, detach your space bar, and insert it directly into your ASS.

Thanks in advance to those who helpfully provide me with answers.

Yep, the only very important app is quite broken. Now trying to get the online app store to work.

Nice rom though.

Delete the youtube app and just go to m.youtube.com (also make sure HQ isn't selected).

Also thanks for the frameworks/market cache clear. Fixed my issue

Just so everyone knows I didn't wipe my boot and it works just fine.
[Nook Color Android Development] alecksh:
Samuel, thank you! I know this is kind of a collaboration of everyone's work, but you've brought it to us in a nice, neat package. Thanks for everything you're doing, I never thought the NC would have such a strong dev community this early and I'm so glad.
[Nook Color Android Development] Sonicjet:

love U so much man!
[Nook Color Android Development] Syco54645:
This doesn't have superuser.apk. wish it did.
[Nook Color Android Development] Sonicjet:
I think the market problem is with authentication...
[Nook Color Android Development] superman_legendary:
So basically if I flash this version. I will lose SU? And the only way to get it back is with adb?

Am I correct?
[Nook Color Android Development] sec6:
After signing into google accounts. I opened market. Had problems downloading, but did the old clear market cache and clear google framework data. Then reboot. If eventually started working.
[Nook Color Android Development] Mikey:
Root (su) included How do you lose it if it's included :p
[Nook Color Android Development] Sonicjet:
Yeah a Clear cache and reboot does not help on my end, same problem, Also, does your Google Talk app not sign in?
[Nook Color Android Development] sixcoronas:
Market works for me after stopping framework and clearing cache.

Still no sd card.........
[Nook Color Android Development] werm:
Worked great!

Thanks for your work!
[Nook Color Android Development] sec6:
Yeah, can sign into google talk as well. Weird?
[Nook Color Android Development] altimax98:
I think what hes speaking about is the actual superuser.apk file. i am downloading now, but i remember in another thread they stated that the actual app doesnt currently work... so any program that request the 'su' permission recieves it without a UI pop up notifying the user...

for me it doesnt matter, i dont download questionable programs and especially ones req root, so it doesnt bother me at all not having the UI popup
[Nook Color Android Development] Jrbourque:
Worked for me thanks
[Nook Color Android Development] superman_legendary:
Thanks for clearing up SU question I had.
[Nook Color Android Development] woot1524:
Installed just fine. Thanks for the release.

Couple bugs though. My status bar keeps poping up and down. It could be a phantom touch problem, only thing is, I've never had it before. I'm also getting a random app(not sure if app, but the opening animation looks like one) opening and immediately crashing with an error dialog box.

Other than that, love the works that's been put in. Keep it up.

anyone get angry birds to install? I am unable to install neither angry birds nor angry birds season
[Nook Color Android Development] samuelhalff:
Make sure you formatted system with the ext4 CWR. DON'T format boot and data..

This means you've got something wrong with partitions. Incompatiblity with ext3/ext4. Make sure data and cache are ext3 and system is ext4.

Enter 'mount's in advanced to check. If one of the three is missing, that's the faulty one.

To go back to ext3 on data and cache, use format option in previous ext3 CWR sdcard.

HC-boot-repair flashable zip:http://www.multiupload.com/82Q72CXIDS

6.3 MB

md5sum: fe673ff6f91aaff295251266ca673af6 HC-boot-repair.zip

OK this fixed my problems!!, but now it asks for a password, so I still can't use my new toy. Any idea what the password is?
[Nook Color Android Development] samuelhalff:
Ok, my initial release was confusing.

I'm uploading a new file, which should make it easier.

Uploading now, should be finished in 30mins or so. Sorry for the inconvenience.

Sam

PS: Could the previous poster erase his quote, as the instructions and BOTH FILES have changed. Thank you!

Do not download the boot repair file linked in previous post!

PS2: If you're really impatient, you can format /system /cache and /data in CWR, flash the faulty (old) HC-v4-2nd-edition.zip and then flash the new HCext4-repair-boot.zip that I've already uploaded. Or just wait for the new file to upload. This time system, data and cache will need formatting, all this in CWR ext4 compatible.

Sam
[Nook Color Android Development] bhamhawker:
Kinda shocked at how easy it was to get this up and running on my new NC. Looks fantastic, though their seem to be some flickers when scrolling through apps.

I'm not showing all Apps in the Market (i.e. Angry Birds Seasons is there, regular Angry Birds is not). Is this a function of Honeycomb? Or is it just an already known bug?
[Nook Color Android Development] samuelhalff:
OP udated with a working version of 2nd edition (no encryption).

Follow OP instructions carefully.

Please read OP, strangely enough, I didn't write it for myself..

Format system, data and cache before flashing file.

USE EXT4 CWR (3.0.0.6), not ext3 3.0.0.5.

Sam
[Nook Color Android Development] richdaley:
Thanks Sam for the update. I installed using the instructions and it booted fine without the boot fix and is running well. I was just about to try to tackle trying to get ad-hoc wifi working so I am really glad that you added it to this release. Superuser seems like it is working but it force closes once in a while.

I was wondering what other users do about their sd cards. I don't completely understand ext4. Do you keep a ext4 formatted recovery card just for these installs? I have been reformatting the card after each install and then putting videos and music back on which gets old.
[Nook Color Android Development] samuelhalff:
Yes, using the SDCard should slowly become unnecessary. But you have to understand that the NC is quite new. Building Recoveries isn't easy. Depending on which version of Android you're running, working without AOSP sources, etc..

We should slowly see a universal recovery. Although ext4 should take over on future releases (Gingerbread, HC, etc.).

For the time being, just buy a new 2gb SD card, for your recoveries...

Sam
[Nook Color Android Development] richdaley:
We are crossing our fingers but Motorola has said before that they are going to do everything they can to keep their devices locked down. Either way, there will be other HC devices in the next few weeks. The Nook Color has been great advertising for stepping up to other HC devices. I laughed when I saw the price tag of the xoom (like $800???) but I might pay more or even sign a contract for a subsidized device with GPS, cameras etc because Honeycomb makes these devices much more attractive.
[Nook Color Android Development] bhamhawker:
A bit of a noobish question - I bought an 8GB SD card yesterday to flash HC.

How do I go about using that 8GB card now for sideloading music, books, etc.? Also, what's the ideal size for this flash, so I can buy a backup SD card for it?
[Nook Color Android Development] vista1984:
thank you very much for the solid progress.

will try out again.

Nice! Thanks tons for your continued hard work. :)
[Nook Color Android Development] runhopskipjump:
Wow Sam! This is a solid image. I think I am going to stick with honeycomb untill the nightlies become better. This honeycomb with ext4 is pretty damned smooth.

Also thank you, thank you, thank you for developing the mounting tool to access partitions via USB. Its so much better than using SSH to transfer media!

Nook Honey 1.1
[Nook Color Android Development] sm1te:
Thanks very much for this. Just got a nook yesterday rooted and flashed this last night. Been in the space of rooting devices and flashing wm and my android phone for some time.

Anyone have pointers to getting flash working on this version? If it does not please forgive the n00b question. I searched but could not find anything useful too many "flash" entries to get meaningful results.

Thanks in advance.
[Nook Color Android Development] fzr-r4:
i don't think flash is working yet. i haven't seen a way, at least.

Anyone know the answer to this? I'm still confused how to use the FlashCard now for Books, Music, etc.
[Nook Color Android Development] luigi90210:
if i make a back up using clockwork of my current version of honeycomb and flash this version, can i restore my data from the clockwork backup i made?

i just got HC to the point where i like it and i do not want to have to start over again

thanks

[Nook Color Android Development] richdaley:
I have been reusing an 8GB card but I ordered a 4GB card today. I reformat the card after the ROM has been installed using Windows (with the card in I right click and choose format). I am not sure if you can leave it partitioned and just remove the recovery files (so that it doesn't boot to recovery when it is in) but it doesn't matter to me so I figure it is better to just have it cleaned up.

When I get the 4GB card, I will burn the recovery image on it and keep it just for that purpose.

To use the card, I have been removing it from the Nook and putting it in an adapter for my PC to copy files, since the normal android mounting method does not work with this port but you can also install Sam's mounting tool on the Nook and then use it to mount. That way you don't have to keep pulling the card. Here is the link:

if you want to use your SD card for music and such all you have to do is transfer the content on to the sd card via USB

i use an app called dual mountSD(paid) and it allows me to mount my sd card while my nook uses it so thats how i have been getting my music on my sd card

hope this helps

Anyone have youtube working yet? I searched around and just found links to youtube videos.

Thanks again.
[Nook Color Android Development] dang025:
I read in another thread the using market enabler has helped with the issue of missing market apps. DO you think that would help in this case
[Nook Color Android Development] luigi90210:
download the youtube app and right before the video plays make sure you uncheck the HQ symbol in the corner and the video will play, its a temp fix for the app but if you want to watch alot of youtube videos i suggest you use their mobile site

This new updated version is too big for my 128 mb cwm sd card...how do I work around that?
[Nook Color Android Development] fwdixon:
SE is working great. Looking forward to AOSP.

A few issues though. Getting a lot of FC's on various apps after install. Had to reboot to fix. Now launcher FC's on boot.

Also, quadrant took a dive from 1600+ to ~1000
[Nook Color Android Development] macndroid:
Charging

Does SE allow for charging while the NC is being used? I'm still on the first edition of v4 and I can only charge when the NC is powered off. Even when I am plugged into the wall the NC continues to drain the battery using HCv4.
[Nook Color Android Development] jaysckap:
Mines on and charging

[Nook Color Android Development] fzr-r4:
Mine seemed to do this at first. I left it plugged in and stopped using it, and it charged up. Does yours charged while powered on but with the screen off?
[Nook Color Android Development] ElephantGlue:
Im using it right now while charging...i never tried with V1
[Nook Color Android Development] macndroid:
mine looks like its charging but the %charge slowly drops when running with or without the screen on. I may have to try SE if it does really work.

Ha, yep. I got that.

Make sure "boot" is not mounted?

Just curious since I did not see an answer to this question (though I saw someone else has asked about it).

The instructions for installing the 2nd ed. of HC v4 say to be sure that 'boot' is not mounted. But after booting the SDcard, in the menu I saw no option to mount or unmount 'boot'. I wondered if that was just a typo and it was supposed to say be sure 'cache' is not mounted, since that was the option after 'system' and 'data'. But...maybe I'm missing something.

Anyone know anything about this?

Thanks,

-JTT
[Nook Color Android Development] HyoImowano:
The nook definitely charges both while being used and off with this, and the previous version. Are you using the charger that came with the nook? HC does drain the battery faster than say, the stock ROM, but the nook's charger does a fine job of keeping it going. If you're using a standard micro USB charger, than that's your issue, the charger that comes with it supplies more than twice the power of a standard USB charger and has extra contacts on the side that plugs into the nook to facilitate that. Using a different wall adapter or USB cable would result in the nook receiving much less power.
[Nook Color Android Development] fattymcdirty:
is the issue with the flickering screen in low-level-brightness fixed now? or do we need another kernel for that? I'm running stock 1.1 rooted now, with an OC kernel that has that flickering fix included.. that's currently the only issue which prevents me from switching to another rom...

and another question - is the lower statusbar from the stock rom somehow portable to other roms?
[Nook Color Android Development] jfair9:

[Nook Color Android Development] electrikjesus:
I got my Nook Color last week. And so far I am loving it. It beats the heck out of my Hero for browsing, games, Word, etc.

The only thing I am trying to figure out on it is the Video playback. For some things it zooms in to one of the corners of the video and just shows that. For other things it just won't play. Even YouTube has trouble playing the videos unless I quickly tap in the (HD) button to turn it off.

Other than that I am loving the HC v4 2nd ed ;) Keep up the AWESOME!!!!! work.
[Nook Color Android Development] dang025:
There is an issue with the lack of DSP on the Nook which explains your difficulty playing video's especially HD ones. The Cyanogen team is working on it as we speak, hopefully the fix should be available in a little while.
[Nook Color Android Development] samuelhalff:
Correct.

Regarding launcherpro, go to launcher app in applications and remove default values (bottom). Then press n.
[Nook Color Android Development] fwdixon:
yes, seems this version of HC or market (not sure which) is unable to read the apps installed on the device (or even purchased on your account).

[Nook Color Android Development] jttraverse:
touch-screen flakiness?

Has anyone noticed problems with screen functionality after flashing to HC v4?

I flashed it last night and things went perfectly and everything seemed fine. I did the usual things when first setting up wifi, etc. and then installed some of the apps I'd been using to see how the Market was doing. (Other than the installed apps not showing up on the Market, it seems to download and install okay now...so thanks for that.)

This morning I've noticed that trying to touch items on the screen is acting flaky. Sometimes touching an app icon opens up a different app, and I noticed that typing in the keyboard may give spurious characters. Touching near the top right border in some app when there's an option there may open up the date/time screen in the lower right.

At the moment I think it's something to do with the functionality of the screen in general that touching it or trying to move items is misbehaving. Last thing I noticed is that while trying to reposition items on my home screen, press then drag, the screen may switch to the grid, but dragging may jitter and the icon will jump off to somewhere else. Or, pressing and dragging may just open the app, or some other app.

I've rebooted a few times, but it's still a little touchy (no pun intended) and misbehaves about 50% of the time. Don't know if some other app I installed may be a culprit, but I only really use Rom Manager, Titanium Backup, the basics..YouTube, Gmail, and a couple of ebook reader apps I tested.

-JTT
[Nook Color Android Development] samuelhalff:
This can easily be converted to an ext3 release with no recovery. Replace boot.tar in tmp folder of flashable zip with boot.tar found in first edition. Then flash file...

Regarding touchscreen and overall responsiveness, I can only remind you that this is a preview release and there hasn't been any extensive testing.

It may very well be that 2nd edition tweaks don't play well with this very limited version of Honeycomb.

I really don't have much free time to read logcats. There might be issues with added permissions (market fix) and with some modified system files.

It could also be ext4 related, but can't be sure of anything right now. Try flashing the ext3 version I just mentionned. Maybe you'll find it smoother on the long run...

Time isn't something I can give you for the time being.. very sorry.

Sam
[Nook Color Android Development] landlocked:
You'll have to pardon my n00b question, but does this release come with the stock HC kernel or has one of the OC'd ones been added?

Thanks,

LL
[Nook Color Android Development] samuelhalff:
OC, 1100.
[Nook Color Android Development] richdaley:
Sam - Do you ever sleep??

Will this run at 1100 automatically or do we need to install SetCPU?
[Nook Color Android Development] samuelhalff:
Ha. Not much lately.

Automatically. I haven't tested setcpu with HC. But you don't need it to run an OC kernel.
[Nook Color Android Development] fzr-r4:
the time you have given and do give is greatly appreciated!
[Nook Color Android Development] jttraverse:
No worries...it's really still great by me.

Thanks Sam, and I'm certainly not complaining at all, just asking questions and putting in some observations (usually trying to decide if it's just me messing something up :) It's made my Nook a sweet deal and I'm really happy with it.

I appreciate all you've done and are doing, and definitely understand we're on the bleeding edge of creativity and ingenuity at the moment--but far ahead of the crowd! ha! Thanks to you that is.

Keep it up...I think I can speak for everyone when I say you have our admiration and thanks.

[Nook Color Android Development] xdadidida:
Was this actually recompiled, or is it just a tweaked version of v1?

I'm not trying to be critical or anything, I'm just trying to figure out since I'm already on v1 if there's any point to upgrading to this or if I can just do the same tweaks myself on what I've already got on there.
[Nook Color Android Development] trilogy069:
Is it just me or has the official HC SDK released to developers? Does this mean that we can now take this to the next level? OOOhhhhh Yeeeeaahhh!!!

True...True..But...with this being final...AOSP not to far behind...
[Nook Color Android Development] luigi90210:
oh i know but alot of people want this newly released sdk to be ported so we can run it and even though it is the final sdk i really dont think it will solve any of our current bugs/problems
[Nook Color Android Development] smaskell:
well the gingerbread code was released the same day as the nexus S, if I recall correctly. Let's hope honeycomb with be out this thursday, with the release of the xoom.
