[Nook Color Android Development] Nooter:
To those having this problem, follow these steps:

1. Go to Market, search for "clockworkmod", and update ROM manager to the newest version

2. Load the ROM Manager app

3. The first menu option will say "Flash ClockWork Recovery (Current 3.0.0.5, Latest 3.0.1.0)"; tap this option

4. Scroll all the way down the list of devices to find the "Nook Color (SD)"; tap this (DO NOT TO SELECT "Nook Color (old)"!)

4.a. You will get a message that CWM has been successfully updated

5. Now install Phiremod v5 through the regular process (reboot into recovery, install zip from SD card)

Hope this helps! Thanks to everyone who let me know that my CWM was out of date!
[Nook Color Android Development] Nooter:
Not really. I like CM7 because it's Gingerbread, and works well with Exchange ActiveSync (and has Bluetooth!). Phiremod's ROM is a sweet ready-to-use layer on top of CM7 for me (I find stock CM7 to be a little too barebones).
[Nook Color Android Development] chisleu:
I'm confused as to what is in Phiremod's ROM that isn't in CM7. Can one install CM7 nightlies on top of Phiremod?
[Nook Color Android Development] jwortiz:
Hey!

Is it me or does the latest PHIREMOD NOOK V5.1 go through the battery quick? While reading (using nook for Android), I saw it go from 100% to 90% within an hour. That's just reading. That didn't happen with the earlier phiremod...and yes, I re-did the whole configuration from scratch (wiping) to make sure.

I even went simple and only had the nook for Android application installed to see if it was the application. I never had the issue before installing the Phiremod ROM.

Thanks
[Nook Color Android Development] defishguy:
It isn't just you. I noticed the same thing.
[Nook Color Android Development] FaceMelter:
I am not a nook user...just hooking up my GF 's Nook...I am experiencing 2 problems

* after I wipe data clockwork freezes

* and after PhireMod loads the market doesn't work..the icons are there...but no response

Sorry if this was posted...but I read through about 30 pages of this thread...did not see similar posts...hit me on twitter @face_melter if u have answers
[Nook Color Android Development] dr_tracker:
Any advice on installing one of the "cached" maps??? mainly Ownhere V. 5.x, preferred, or Brut 4.x.

I have tried installing both the normal way, by ADB Push and ADB Install without luck. I receive the error "Application not installed" every time. BTW I don't have Google Maps available in the Market.

Sorry if this has been touched before...

Update: Used Market Enabler to download the latest Google Maps, after that everything worked fine.
[Nook Color Android Development] Thibor69:
Still no video right ?

.

I just wanted to verify that Video still does not work under this build right ? I mean I can not play any movies (.avi or .mp4) via Rock Player.

I am running the latest V5.1 PhireMod

Thanks for the confirmation !

.

.
[Nook Color Android Development] spyderman33:
Running solid for me... battery holding up just fine.
[Nook Color Android Development] Thibor69:
What is running solid for you ? RockPlayer ?? if so what codec are you using for your video's ??
[Nook Color Android Development] dhoshman:
Video is running fine for me youtube and also rockplayer (does have slight lag while playing mp4s). Battery life, while livable, def is not what your used to im getting 7-9 hours depending on how heavy my usage is but def livable. Problem I have is that the touch sensitivity has seem to gone waaaay down. I know with the 1100mhz oc kernel before this improved touch sensitivity to excellent but this new build is not running that kernel stock any more. So I dont know if thats what the deal is or what. All apps working for me, at least, in the market. Loving bluetooth and cant wait until Cm7 is stable at RC1, phiremod will def rock then.
[Nook Color Android Development] phiredrop:
Thanks for the input.

- System sounds: will probably be a fix in a later CM7

- WiFi: Add a shortcut to homescreen (Add > Shortcut > Settings > Wi-Fi Settings)

- File Manager: Is the one from stock that's included not good enough? I could always add Astro if majority wanted...

- Swype: I can confirm it works, but cannot legally include it in the ROM. "SlideIT" works as well.

- Easiest way to be notified of updates is to follow me on Twitter

- Task Killer: has never been recommended by Cyanogen and other devs, so it is not included by default

- Touch screen: is generally affected by kernel

- *Also note, TubeXL requires Flash. Downloading the latest from Market works just fine.

Sorry for the short response.. thanks for your feedback though.

[Nook Color Android Development] Sliceburg:
I can confirm that Swype Beta does not work. Perhaps you could elaborate as to how you got it working...
[Nook Color Android Development] phiredrop:
The Swype that works is from the Galaxy Tab. If you look hard enough, you can find the lib files and .apk needed to get it working. Since this is not necessarily legal, it is up to you to find it and get it working.
[Nook Color Android Development] madsquabbles:
that sounds normal for even stock. it's rated for 8hrs reading with wifi off. at 10% per hour you're looking at 10hrs of reading.

even with stock at 1 step before the screen gets black (night reading mode) in fbreader i'd get just over 10%/hour.
[Nook Color Android Development] jwortiz:
Hmmm... I beg to differ. With my nook (AUTO-NOOTERed/Nook Color V1.1.0_r2), I mostly use it to read and I was getting much longer use out of it WITH wi-fi on all the time. I do sit down to read at least 1 to 2 hours a day, surf the web throughout the day and/or play a game or two and it still doesn't chew as much battery by late afternoon or evening. I'm usually down to about 35% - 45% by the end of the day.

I installed Phiremod 5.1 to play with it as usual and the battery was dead by mid-day or early afternoon. I noticed it right away when it went down 10% in about an hour while reading one of my e-Books.

[Nook Color Android Development] mikegscott:
I notice with Launcher Pro after I open the App Drawer and rotate the NC all the App ICON pile up on each other. Phiremod 5.1
[Nook Color Android Development] chisleu:
THANK YOU!!! I can hit the market search without going landscape now! :)

Maybe this is asked and answered, but can I install more recent CM7 nightlies on top of Phiremod 5.1 without wiping out the phiremod stuff? (obviously the latest couple have disabled live wallpapers, which I don't use anyway, but other than that I mean.)

Thanks!
[Nook Color Android Development] eespiritu:
Haven't used Launcher Pro, but with ADW (auto installed with priremod) you can go into Drawer settings and change the rows and columns on the desktop(Settings>Screen preferences). You could try slimming that down (ADW also has an auto stretch icon that supposedly keeps things from overlapping)
[Nook Color Android Development] Compnetbobby:
Coming from v5, Can I upgrade or do I have to wipe it?

Whats recommended?
[Nook Color Android Development] mikegscott:
Thanks for the reply, I know ADW does not exhibit the same characteristic. I've got Launcher Pro on my Streak and my Viewsonic Gtab (w/2.3) and neither of them do this exact thing. I can see the icons pile up on one icon space but they spread back out. NC with phiremod doesn't do this last step. Not necessarily a phiremod problem just an issue. It's like LP on phiremod is waiting for something.
[Nook Color Android Development] whiffer2:
I personally wipe system/data/cache every time. I like knowing that I have a fresh start, and if i run across a bug, then i dont second-guess the problem being from the previous build. Just my way of doing things...

is the ver 5.1 reads unicode?

I'm using ver 4, it's nearly perfect, except for not reading Unicode while I browse web :(
[Nook Color Android Development] chisleu:
The window animations in the menus are epic.

I wiped system, data, and cache before install.

I had these live wallpapers installed before wiping:

Jumpgate Free

Nightfall Live Wallpaper Free

Silhouette Free

None of them show up in the market now. What gives?

EDIT: pushed these:

libRS.so

librs_jni.so

/system is mounted RW by default?

Didn't help me get the wallpapers above. Thought it may have been a dependency problem. What is missing? Is it device
[Nook Color Android Development] mroien:
I just flashed the new v5.1 and was wondering how to get rid of the windows animation.

Hey guys..love this rom...but now that I got everything perfectly running, Samuelhaff comes out with that epic bottom toolbar mod/rom...What to do? I took a chance, and just made my nandroid backup, backed up apps/data thru Titanium as well, booted into 3.0.1 cwm, Formatted system ONLY, wiped dalvik, flashed sam's new rom over this. Next, i used my old 3.0.0.5 cwm bootable sd to install the proper cwmr_3.01 zip since I just wiped it (from the beginning of the cwm thread).Then booted up/rebooted into cwm, reflashed gapps(since titanium didnt show up....Straight to market, got titaniumbkup, restored everything...Result: my nook LOOKS exactly like it did...oc kernel not installed, but just ran quadrant, 925mhz stock kernel....1800+first run, 1900+ subsequent runs!!!...Linpacks are 18+ EVERY RUN...(doesn't fluctuate hardly at all)..I had to go back and reinstall the bootanimation, and live wallpapers are gonna have to be restored(easy fix)...Best part, my battery doesn't nosedive anymore...ps...Bluetooth, flash, and youtube (regular apk in hq) work terifficly...Tv and movies stream from apks as well, and thru browser on flash movie sites (quicksilverscreen is what ive always used)..Conclusion: I have a fully functional "phiresammodrom" that i am stoked about....Hope i didn't offend by trying this, but just wanted to pass it along if anyone might want to give it a go...(If i did it again, i'd probably copy all my system apps to sd thru rootexplorer, then move them back after layering the rom over phiredrop's...btw.... thanks Phiredrop, and thanks samh too...bottom bar is p e r f e c t !

I have the newest Recovery from Rom Manager and I am still getting this issue, I was reading to install the old Recovery but cant get back in.

I had dual boot HC/CM7, messed up my build.prop to try and mimic the xoom to get some tablet apps. Recovery wouldnt mount /system to replace it so I wanted to load this ROM on my first partition but was getting the Error 7

Cant boot into second rom either, any ideas? Recovery is installed 3.0.0.5, but cant seem to install anything. Perhaps an SD image ?
[Nook Color Android Development] fullthrottleenergy:
you say you have the latest recovery and then you say recovery 3.0.0.5 is installed?

the easiest solution would be to burn a cwm recovery on a microsd. once burned put the phiremod v5.1 on the microsd. boot from microsd and format system/data/cache. install zip, take out microsd and reboot.

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=959240

once you've got phiremod installed and set up shut down. download the zip from here (http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=971197) place on the microsd and install. after this there's no need for a cwm microsd. format that microsd and use as a regular card.
[Nook Color Android Development] darx:
Quick question, besides video performance, what's different about this from a rom like Nookie Froyo?

I run CM7 on my phone and I remember what a difference Gingerbread was from 2.2. 2.3 had much smoother web browsing, is the same true for Phiremod vs. Nookie froyo?

Thanks for any input. Really I'm just looking to kill time before the HC AOSP is out.
[Nook Color Android Development] s0n-:
I realized this AFTER i posted, there was a 3.0.1

Thanks alot, created the SD card and applying zips now.
[Nook Color Android Development] will2live:
Agreed but one more suggestion is to make sure when you make a bootable sdcard card you use the recovery images that will make it 3.0.1.0 which can be found here ( http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?p=12192701#post12192701). Using a bootable card that has 3.0.0.5 on it will give you issue at some point.

Only other comment is IMO keep the bootable sdcard and don't format it to use for storage. It is always a good plan to keep a bootable sdcard around in case something goes haywire and you can not get into the internal eMMC recovery. Personally I never flash CWR to internal mem myself. I have a spare 2Gb sdcard I leave setup as bootable for all installs and all backups. that way if the OS gets hosed I always have a current backup handy and nothing gets lost seeing as you can always boot to a sdcard, just my personal preference tho.
[Nook Color Android Development] JudasD:
were you able to get the galaxy tab swype keyboard to work 100%? i was able to find it, but the swype portion does not work unless you change the build.prop file. Then then keyboard sort of works but FC's alot.

Thanks,

JD
[Nook Color Android Development] fullthrottleenergy:
No problem. Hope it worked.

ext4 was added to 3.0.0.6 so that's why I linked that. It's just a simple download, extract and burn. Works fine for both gingerbread and honeycomb.

I do agree with you about keeping a bootable cwm microsd but some people might not have an extra handy. Just another option and then no fiddling with taking out a regular microsd and inserting the cwm microsd.

My setup: I've got cwm 3.0.1.0 flashed onto internal memory with the das uboot menu which gives me easy access to recovery and then a regular 8gb microsd for storage and backups.
[Nook Color Android Development] spyderman33:
can i overclock in the latest version?

It says stock kernel so I am not sure if you can overclock it... SetCPU did auto settings and has it at 925mhz
[Nook Color Android Development] chisleu:
Don't use SetCPU, go to settings, Cyanagen mod settings->performance->cpu.

I believe he is using the stock kernel because of the benchmarks showing higher (rediculously high) IO benchmarks on the stock kernel. It is thought to be a bug in the benchmark. Only that benchmark app shows improvement in IO.

Install the OC kernel and run 1.1ghz for a faster NC.

Touch insensitive

I have nookie froyo 0.6.8. Various parts of the screen are insensitive to touch especially the bottom left quadrant in portrait. When I tap those areas, nothing happens. But sometimes it seems to cure itself after a bit. Very frustrating. It's browser agnostic. I like it, and was thinking about returning it, but it's too late. Any help will be appreciated.

Thanks
[Nook Color Android Development] eespiritu:
You should try recalibrating your screen through ADB. There's a link to the how-to somewhere in this thread.

Also, since you're using Nookie Froyo, shouldn't you post this in the Nookie Froyo thread and not the phiremod one? :P

Okay..so I decided to start a fresh 5.1 install and restored apps and data settings with Titanium Backup. After choosing LauncherPro as my primary launcher...my Nook button doesn't work..at all.

I've restarted..but it just refuses to respond. Any ideas on how to fix this or do I need to wipe again? (I've wiped this a couple times now..trying to find the best way to get the Honeycomb battery status with my honeybread theme..it hasn't been a seamless experience..)
[Nook Color Android Development] eespiritu:
I tried getting the Galaxy Tab Swype to work, but I constantly got errors. I probably didn't install the right libraries or something. I bought the SlideIT keyboard and it works great so I'd go with that. It's uber-simple and swpye isn't going to be that much of an upgrade IMHO.
[Nook Color Android Development] jhford:
Sorry. My bad. But recalibrating seemed to help. BTW, I'm new to NC. Is there any consensus as to the best ROM to use?

[Nook Color Android Development] fullthrottleenergy:
Wipe (data/system/cache) and install nookiefroyo or a cm7 nightly. This will let you know if its hardware or software.

Does it work before you restore using TB?

Stock 1.1 to Phiremod 5.1

Hey Guys , Can I go directly from a B/N stock 1.1 to Phiremod v 5.1

Had some trouble installing phiremod 5.1 over a nootered 3.0 . Once installed could not seem my nook and sd card on my pc running vista.

I have now reflashed my nook back to Stock B/N 1.1 . Reading threw this thread most nookers are going from phiremod 4.1 to 5.1 . Is this the way I should proceed install v 4.1 then 5.1 , or can I make the jump straight to 5.1 . Which way will be able to access internal memory and sd card from my pc. Thanks for all your hard work, looks like a great rom .
[Nook Color Android Development] chisleu:
Yes you should. If you couldn't see the USB stuff on the PC, that was a problem with that rom (more likely, you messed something up.)
[Nook Color Android Development] Tarpit_Carnivore:
Do you still need to "burn" the zip file to the SD card or can I just drop the Zip file onto the SD card and flash it from Clockwork?

Also the instructions say to unzip the tar.gz but the first unzip only gives me another tar archive, a third gives me the zip. Which one do I need?
[Nook Color Android Development] chisleu:
.zip is a compressed folder (in a manor of thinking.)

.tar is an uncompressed folder.

.gz is a compressed file.

.tar.gz is a compressed folder. IT may help to think of a tar.gz as a zip file, and his package as a zip inside of a zip even though it's technically a zip (and another file) inside of a tar inside of a gz.

He has the zip (the file that gets "flashed" (unzipped) on the device)

Then he has a AWDLauncher settings file (in the tar.gz) that you can load for his settings. I prefer to go through it all myself and change everything around.
[Nook Color Android Development] takef0cusin:
Love this Rom it's awesome. Quick question, a few of my apps are showing the incorrect resolution, I know that there will be resolution problems, however they worked before on an earlier version of this Rom. Is there a setting that I need to change for it to display apps correctly that I may have missed?
[Nook Color Android Development] fullthrottleenergy:
If you're 100% stock right now the easist way would be to burn a clockword recovery. download phiremod 5.1 zip, extract it and copy to the microsd. boot from microsd and format data/system/cache and install zip. That's it. Check out my earlier post.

http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=12290898&postcount=893

Open up spare parts and see if compatibility is checked. If so uncheck it and see if that works.
[Nook Color Android Development] eespiritu:
I also think that the bottom status bar is really nice, especially for tablets. Any chance to have it included, phiredrop? Anyone else concur?

P.S.-People need to stop taking their quadrant scores so seriously. Besides, Dalingrin likes Linpack better. :)
[Nook Color Android Development] tsnoah:
Yes, please include this or a zip we can flash that will do this.

[Nook Color Android Development] chisleu:
Yeah, what is up with the battery at full charge before install? What does that do?
[Nook Color Android Development] eespiritu:
My guess is to make sure that your NC has enough battery to be flashed and then rebooted. The reboot takes like 5 minutes, and if for some reason the install gets jacked up, you want enough power to go back to CWR and try again. Just a guess though.
[Nook Color Android Development] jjenson:
After I install this I cannot find a way to install the market it does not exist did I miss something from the instructions?

Nevermind in titanium backup I clicked defrost and it works now.
[Nook Color Android Development] phiredrop:
That is a very valid reason as well - though flashing at anything other than 100% can hurt your battery performance in the newly flashed ROM, at which case you would then have to recalibrate the battery. It's just a best practice/avoid unnecessary problems step.
[Nook Color Android Development] chisleu:
That is what I feared. I flashed at 50% and noticed my battery has been charging up very very quickly. How do I recalibrate it for full charge?
