Is it just me or does the honeycomb boot animation look very low quality? Not complaining, but I like to nit-pick everything :p

And the market is definitely not seeing my apps :mad:
[Nook Color Android Development] RileyGrant:
Any idea why any of phiremod's roms wont flash for me? on v3 and v4, clockwork starts to open the package then crashes back to the main menu.

edit:same thing happens with the cm7 c8 nightly...
[Nook Color Android Development] bdcrim:
Are you using clockwork 3.0. 0.5 or 3.0. 0.6? Should be using the 6 version if your not.
[Nook Color Android Development] RileyGrant:
I'm currently using 3.0.0.6
[Nook Color Android Development] madtopcoder:
I don't like the honeycomb animation when it boots up; but overall it works fine. The cm7 build is much better than the froyo build.
[Nook Color Android Development] 3matthew3:
actually "My Apps" only worked the first time I was in the Market... no longer shows any apps. First time, it updated a bunch of "My Apps". Now nothing.

Also had updated my Clockwork to 3.0.0.6 before flashing Phiremod v4. Had did a backup before my CWM update. Didn't really like Phiremod as a daily driver... so I went to flash back to my backup... No dice. Kept getting a cannot mount system and cache on 3.0.0.6 ... burned an 3.0.0.5 SD card and flashed back with success. Are Nandroid backups version specific or is this just a bug with 3.0.0.6?

Kinda new to this stuff.

any SD version?

cos burning sd is faster...and multi-boot is OK...
[Nook Color Android Development] granduke:
Enjoying this. Skipped from v2 to v4.

Like how paid app purchases now work. Although, like other reports, MyApps is not populated for me either.
[Nook Color Android Development] tankzar:
Currently running V4 with Dalingrin's oc kernel, but my pinch to zoom and menu scrolling is nowhere near as smooth as this. Can anybody give me some reccomendations for performance tweaks to get it as smooth as the youtube link? :)
[Nook Color Android Development] altimax98:
I know it may be a dumb question, but is flash and flash apps working in this build?
[Nook Color Android Development] bradasmith:
Did you go into the cynogen settings and enable the overclocking and set it to conservative....
[Nook Color Android Development] tankzar:
I did and everything seems to be running very smoothly. It's just the app drawer and pinch to zoom aren't as smooth as the video which I cant seem to find out why; a tad bit choppier.
[Nook Color Android Development] tankzar:
Also get an FC with Google Maps.

My NookCOlor won't turn on after restart - Need help ASAP, please

Hi all,

After flashing to V4 last night, everything worked fine until this morning.

The screen lockup and I decided to reboot the system.

After that, nomater what I tried, the thing won't power on.

I put the SD card back to the nook, press and hold the power button for 15 seconds. I can get back to the CWM 3.0.0.6 menu. From there, tried to reboot. The system won't power up.

I came back to CWM 3.0.0.6 menu again and reinstall V4, the system won't power up.

What can I do now?

Thanks,

TL

This rom, even with the few minor issues, is freakin awesome phiredrop. Thanks so much for putting it together and getting it to us.

Is it possible to change the font back to the default font?
[Nook Color Android Development] rickpref:
This is working great...I have zero problems except the few that are still not fixed in CM7 and even those are miniscule. To anyone having problems with My Apps in the market, clear data and it should work fine...fixed it for me right away. It's incredible how well the Nook is working and it still has a lot of things left to fix. I really didn't expect the NC to work this well when I bought it last Monday. Great job by all of you developers. I can't wait to see how HC works in a month or so...
[Nook Color Android Development] rickpref:
Sorry...clear cache in Market, not data.
[Nook Color Android Development] hacku:
Sounds to me like you're not using the correct recovery. You're probably trying to flash this using the Froyo recovery, but you need to be using the EXT4 recovery which can be found here:

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=959240
[Nook Color Android Development] hacku:
That was for v3 I believe. The new version (v4) doesn't require that.
[Nook Color Android Development] hacku:
I had the same issue and I've tried everything and can't get My Apps to show back up. Hopefully someone finds a fix for this soon.
[Nook Color Android Development] jayhammy:
I searched but didn't find: can anyone explain why I can't make a Nandroid backup? I was able to on another ROM but not on this one.

Help is appreciated?

Other than that, this ROM ROCKS! Thanks for the efforts.
[Nook Color Android Development] kusgan:
For those nooks that won't boot up!!!!

Same issue, maybe, when I first install phinenook. After install, went to my microSD and formatted it. Then when I rebooted wont turn on. Tried doing everything under the sun that I think will do but failed. Realized I corrupted partition files in nook. The only solution was to burn ext4 recovery to microSD. After burning on put in repartition zip file in the root of the microSD. Please search repartition zip for nook in one of the forums here. Put the said microSD card in the nook. Try to boot it up. I should boot up to recovery. Clean up and flash repartition zip. Then flash again the phirenook zip. Then reboot. It should reboot.
[Nook Color Android Development] burbank:
I believe this temporary limitation is that of CM7 and not this mod. The only way I know of to do a nandroid backup is to boot the NC from a micro SD card set up with CM7 and do the backup to that. Works great for me. I routinely restore backups done this way to multiple NC's with no issues.
[Nook Color Android Development] jayhammy:
Can you please clarify "boot the Nook from a Micro SD card set up ..."? Are you saying that CM7 is installed onto the SD so I'd essentially have 2 ROMs--one on internal, one on SD?
[Nook Color Android Development] abhi28479:
I had the problem of being stuck in CWM after install V4 and reboot.. Flashed it back to Stock Nook and then installed v4...works fine now. But Market "My apps" works the first time only. And no youtube is a bummer!!
[Nook Color Android Development] commander-flatus:
How does one disable the phone stuff then? I was sure from the name that that action got rid of the telephone junk.

Probably need some kinda updated howto. It is completely awesome, though. Thanks for all the hard work!
[Nook Color Android Development] jewnersey:
is ADW faster/better than Zeam.

can anyone throw a pros/cons list up here?
[Nook Color Android Development] Droiderific:
Anyone else having problems dl'ing this? Granted, I've only tried with my nook and DInc, I was going to try with my PC later today.
[Nook Color Android Development] jkurl:
I have found adw to be a pain at times. When I go to select something in the dock it freaks out and changes to a infinidock and I have to set it back up. Zeam has never given me that problem.

Adw does has alot more settings to make it more customized than zeam.

As far as faster I haven't noticed a difference.
[Nook Color Android Development] cflynt:
Just hopefully to help, I couldn't get Flash stuff to work either even though it showed installed in Market. So I was going to Manually remove it and re-install it, but decided to just try re-installing from the APK itself and it worked. Browse to /system/app and find the FlashPlayer.apk in there, sorry don't have Nook with me to give exact name but it should start with FlashPlayer! :) And tap it and install it. After that your Flash should work for ya! Did for me at least!

Hope it helps!
[Nook Color Android Development] WillySun:
By all at whom it is not loaded NC after installation phiremod nook V4.

I think that at installation are written only system and data partition. Boot doesn't change! Accordingly, if boot partition contains a kernel incompatible with phiremod nook V4, NC it will not be loaded.

It`s correct?

Installation for V4:

- Burn the proper CWM via thecubed to SD (EXT 4)

- Unzip and copy all contents of "phiremod-V4.tar.gz" to the root of your newly burned SD

- Place SD in nook and power on

-

Format SYSTEM and then DATA

(No need to wipe if coming from an earlier version of phiremod)

- Flash phiremod

I have tried this method, it works, but doesn't work after reboot!:(
[Nook Color Android Development] cflynt:
Can't say I have had to reboot mine so couldn't tell ya there, in that case I would try uninstalling if it lets ya, if not just remove/rename the FlashPlayer.apk to something else for now and then reboot and see if you can grab via the market.

Not sure what happened black screen?

I installed this yesterday after buying the nc earlier this week. Everything installed perfectly and got it all set up I went and bought a 16gb microSD class 4 card and put it in then restarted now the nc will not start up at all just a black screen.

Any ideas what happened?
[Nook Color Android Development] EhudBenjamin:
Did you format the card in your NC? If you did you need to search for black screen of death to fix it, pay special attention to partitioning the emmc.
[Nook Color Android Development] jjenson:
No I formatted in my computer but I will search for that black screen problem didn't know it existed new to the nook I have a gtab I have been hacking on for a while.
[Nook Color Android Development] gregh77:

My wifi can't seem to stay connected. It did after I first flashed it with v4. Soon after that, I couldn't get it to connect to my router nor my access point.

I am running CM7 v8 so it is formated system and data to ext4, with CWR 3.0.0.6 on my NC's internal EMMC.

I can just flash the phiremod-v4 zip from my /SDcard right?
[Nook Color Android Development] phiredrop:
You should have no problems flashing this over CM7, but always do a nandroid just in case :)
[Nook Color Android Development] jhnstn00:
Thanks. Gonna flash now. Have nandroid already.

No problems thus far. Flashed and now restoring apps. Nice to see different fonts and green selection box is different. Thanks for you work on this. Keep it up.
[Nook Color Android Development] jayhammy:
Loving this ROM! It reminds me of my days with the Incredible--easily flashable ROMs.

I've got an issue. I've got 2 Nook Colors. One is mine, one I'm rooting for a friend. Mine boots up fine with every reboot. However, my friend's doesn't always. It sometimes boots into the "Touch the power of reading" and then the big "N" logo, and then fails. I then force shut it down and then reboot a second time. Most times, it works on the second try. This never happens with my own Nook. Any ideas? Thanks!

[Nook Color Android Development] SamdungSpambot:
very nice... just flashed to froyo from and so far i like a lot..

things i've noticed so far on this build

wifi networks don't work after reboot.

need to "forget" and scan again

flash player uninstalls itself on reboot

just a quick question since v4 is formatted ext3 can i flash back to froyo 0.68 directly? or do i need to use

-CWR-removal.zip

-repartition-boot-with-stock.zip

and is it safe to format sd card with the v4 build?
[Nook Color Android Development] Snyperx:
Yes I have cleared data....numerous times.
[Nook Color Android Development] 360Razir:

Any suggestions? Thanks!

[Nook Color Android Development] jayhammy:
It's good to know that you're able to play videos on your Nook, but I'm looking for help on how to make it work on mine.

there's NO flash videos from within the browser--just the cube that you'd see on an iPad when viewing a flash site.

And not a single video plays on the device through any video app.
[Nook Color Android Development] bdcrim:
If your screen density is above 160, try setting it there, reboot, wipe all the cache and data and reboot again. Worked for me on CM8 "not every" nightly.

Update: Well crap. Screen cycled off, when it came back on, the apps were gone again. Going back to 170.
[Nook Color Android Development] madtopcoder:
There is flash. You need to uninstall it first and then install it again from the market.
[Nook Color Android Development] hongkongdisney:
Will it work after reboot? thx
[Nook Color Android Development] phiredrop:
To enable flash, just go to File Manager > system > app > and install Flash10_1.apk (included in phiremod).

Unfortunately this needs to be done after every reboot for some reason.
[Nook Color Android Development] SamdungSpambot:
sorry forgot to mention you need to reinstall it from the system folders.. i thought you meant it was re-installed but still didn't work

does anyone know how to the restore to stock process? i've read through tons of pages but haven't seen it mentioned.
[Nook Color Android Development] abhi28479:
I couple of options offered here , re-installed from the \system\app folder, uninstall and re-install from mkt, uninstall and re-install in system\app folder..wiped the data using titanium and re-installed...nothin worked....

Uninstalled flash from from Titatnium, installed skyfire and then installed flash from system/app...now it works!! atleast dailymotion and metacafe wrks
[Nook Color Android Development] Nightwalker320:
For me flash player works using go to system, app folder. But I have chopy videos and its not my net. Has anybody had laggy flash videos?
[Nook Color Android Development] oscarv23:
Flash

+1. I noticed pretty much all the flash videos I've viewed in the browser (stock and Dolphin HD) are choppy and as well as the voices are out of sync. Is this just a limitation from the ROM or is it hardware related?
[Nook Color Android Development] poofyhairguy:
Flash on Android currently doesn't use any significant GPU based hardware acceleration, so that means that the CPU is doing all the work. On phone with a smaller screen (but the same CPU) this is easier than on a Nook Color with a 7 inch screen and a high resolution. The best way to improve Flash performance is to overclock your CPU to 1.1GHz.

Adobe IS making a hardware accelerated Flash for Android, but my understanding is that it will be for Tegra based devices (aka Xoom). I don't know if we will ever see really smooth Flash on the Nook Color.
[Nook Color Android Development] Wile-E-Coyote:
I'm using v3 and am not having any problems with Flash, either on the stock browser or on Dolphin. Then again, I am overclocked to 1 GHz.
[Nook Color Android Development] oscarv23:
Flash

Now that I think about it, I recall on v3 the flash performance was much better... or was it Nookie Froyo? Not sure. Either way I'm overclocked to 1100 and still choppy video on v4. Here's hoping for better Flash and Youtube in future releases! Still loving this ROM! :D
[Nook Color Android Development] rickpref:
Has this happened to anyone?

Yesterday around 8:00pm I had aroudn 50% battery. When I got back to my car at 11:00pm it had turned off. I went to turn it back on but it says Battery Low, please wait 15 minutes (or something to that effect). I left it charging for over an hour, but it continues to say this and will not pass that screen.

Can I do this without being rooted? I need to reinstall something on my eMMC (currently empty), and want this instead of stock. I get a "Can't open file (bad)" error now.

Thank you for the release. I love it.

When I installed the flash, it worked for the first time. Now it doesn't work. I tried to go to 1.1 and tried to comeback to this still shows that flash is installed but I can not use it or uninstall it. Even. I tried to delete system, data boot cache and come back to this and still doesn't. Work. I am desperately waiting for the answer.

For me it seems like VitalPlayer_Neon works best for my videos in Froyo 2.2 on SD card. My videos are mp4, 848x480, fps:29.96, Video Codec: h264, Audio Codec: aac, AudioBitrate: 48000, AudioChannelCount: 2, Video Codec: Software. Its Video Information gave me this. I usually kill off other tasks before using.

I use Videoredo TV suite to strip commercials on my OTA channels and Hauppauge PVR to record movies from my Comcast box. It has a default to set for the above.

In 2.1 they play back fine and today it seems that they are working well in 2.2.

I just checked VitalPlayer_Neon settings and I have the Decode Mode set to Hardware Codec and the Video Mode set to Speed. There info must be giving me the wrong Video Codec info. It also seems to work best when I use ES File Explorer to launch it and choose Vital Player as my option.

Not sure if hardware GPU and codecs implemented in your CM7. VideoPlayer_Neon has way to play with its own software codecs (video is choppy in Froyo 2.2 with this option). Hopefully when CM7 implements GPU and codecs VitalPlayer_Neon will have the same results as I am having in Froyo 2.2 with Hardware Codec and Video Mode set to Speed.
