I found the size to be necessary but not all that is needed. When I set it to that size, actually 832X480 (restriction of VideoRedo TVSuite), it still would not play with hardware acceleration. It would play with players that had software decoders.

I had to change the Level from 3.1 to 3.0 to make the file play in default movies and other players with hardware acceleration set on. Size alone would not play.

My program VideoRedo TVSuite set my input size of 832x480 to output of 768x448 when I selected Level 3.0 from their advanced options. According to the developer changing the Level overrode my input parameters. The final 768x448 scaled to full size with hardware acceleration.

I just installed v5.3 and trying to connect to my WiFi. However, no keyboard pops up on screen for me to type it in. Any way to get it to show up??

Edit: nevermind, got it to work after reboot. Very nice build and I'm sure it will be a blast to use!!

Tweeks on top of PhireMod ?

.

Is it possible to install the 'tablet tweaks' from here: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1002000 on top of PhireMod v5.3 ?? Has anyone tried it and what was the outcome ??

I sure want those tweaks !!! but can't go without my PhireMod. :cool:

Cheers

Tablet tweaks is a full Rom and will overwrite phiremod. You have to wait for tablet tweaks to be merged into nightly and for a new phiremod to be released. This has beenal answered in this thread and the tt thread many times.

Wifi connection

That definitely made a difference on the EAP network. I noticed it ran the battery down from 100% to 65% overnight with "always on". But it was always connected to my work network. It would be nice to be able to set prime hours, like 8 - 5, to keep on. I don't have any problems on my home network, just the EAP at work.
[Nook Color Android Development] crea78:
For some reason, a few apps like Engadget are not full screen, but only takes up a small portion. Is there anyway to fix this?
[Nook Color Android Development] Ceger:
Turn off compatibility in Spare Parts app. You will need to reboot.

Thanks for the tip, but I tried this tweak with Google Reader with no success. I have no problem getting fullscreen home in google reader, or listing articles, but once i select a specific article it shrinks to the smaller size
[Nook Color Android Development] tprime76:
Thanks, I stand corrected. I must have gotten it confused with one of the other electronic devices I have at home that I have bastardized to work in ways they never should have.... :-)
[Nook Color Android Development] Ceger:
That would be google not following their own API advice they give to everyone else of not writing screens to fixed size. Go figure.

Ceger
[Nook Color Android Development] gallahad2000:
The tweak requires repeatedly flipping it off and on before leaving it off. Don't ask me why but if you only click it once it doesn't actually turn it off.
[Nook Color Android Development] dzap:
*UPDATE:* In case anyone else has this issue..I fixed it! :D Just reinstall the latest CM7 gapps zip from CWM Recovery, and if you get the "Welcome to NookColor" setup screen, just tap the four corners in a clockwise direction to bypass it. Reinstall Maps from Market, and viola! :D

I finally went to 5.3 and restored with nandroid and tweaked some things and it's pretty good now.

But some apps did not restore and refuse to when I try to re-install them from Market. So I went to logcat to find out why. I was getting "Missing shared library" errors from certain apps (Twitter, My Fake Location, My bank..).

logcat tells me

Package com.twitter.android requires unavailable shared library com.google.android.maps; failing!

Anyone have any idea on how to fix this? I tried going into ROM Manager and tried fixing permissions and rebooting and still the same. I un-installed updates from Maps and that didn't help either (also of note, the Navigation icon disappears when I'm using 5.3 of Google Maps, the latest, but reappears when I downgrade..hmmm...).

Anyone have any ideas?
[Nook Color Android Development] crea78:
Thanks!! I'll try that when I get home
[Nook Color Android Development] Ceger:
Here is a zip with the files that need to be pushed to correct location services for GAPPS. Use ADB or Android Commander (Easiest) to push. Those are the libraries the error is talking about.

Ceger
[Nook Color Android Development] ianPhillips1:
It is an issue since 5.3 was released. PHIREDROP was made aware and was looking into it, I would assume it will be fixed in 5.4. There are multiple programs that suffer from the shared library issue.
[Nook Color Android Development] Ceger:
CM7 Nightly #37 with tablet tweaks is now out. [Hopefully] Expecting Phiremod v5.4 soon! ;)

Well, not expecting, but looking forward to. I wonder if Phiredrop actually waits for new RC candidates.

Grab the latest APK from the home site and Just drop it into / system/ asp via ADB or Android Commander. Remove the old one first.

I noticed when I first rooted everything seemed very smooth, after being rooted for a week and installing a few apps, it seems things arent as smooth as before. Notice it most when swiping between screens and playing Angry Birds. Seems to be a little lag or jerkiness that wasnt there before. Could this be due to me installing a bunch of stuff and using up memory or is there something else I should know? Thanks for any help.

[Nook Color Android Development] iolinux333:
same here too... part of life on the bleeding edge i guess. i'm starting to get a bit of audio cracking also sometimes, I'm sure it's some stupid process(es) running in the background with all of the zillions of things I've added, removed, added back, removed again, etc... I'm hoping that by the time 1.0 comes out I'll have figured out exactly which bits of software I want installed and just install them once... which should cut down on some of the cruft.
[Nook Color Android Development] har02052:
I am having trouble with my wifi connection. At my home in have wpa2 personal with aes encryption. I frequently have to shut off the wifi and turn it back on to reconnect to the Internet. Nothing has changed with the connection. It doesn't show that it lost signal at all. I will just be browsing and then click on a link and it won't work. I then reconnect and it will work for a while again. I tried wifi buddy but it didn't improve at all. Any suggestions?

Very much looking forward to the next version with the tablet tweak, btw:)
[Nook Color Android Development] droiddog:
I tried that. If I just paste the new version of titanium backup with root explorer it wont show up as an app. If I try to install it, it wont install. I think its because I can't figure out how to uninstall titanium backup that came with the rom. Thanks for your help though.

Man am I stoked for the next version too. Hardware acceleration then tablet enhancements on top -- CM7 and Phiremod rock! I just love how I can flash and just be done with it. And things just work.

Can't wait for 5.4 and thanks.
[Nook Color Android Development] Mikey:
Waiting for 5.4.....to give this Rom a try. I'm sure i wont be disappointed.
[Nook Color Android Development] arrjaytea:
@Phiredrop - for the sake of clarity, when 5.4 releases, I should be able to simply flash it over the current RC2 tablet tweaks ROM from Murdocks thread, correct?

I would assume no problems would arise, just wanted to be sure.
[Nook Color Android Development] GMKcz:
Phiremod V6 hopefully this week

http://twitter.com/#!/phiredrop/status/57127790939615232
[Nook Color Android Development] phiredrop:
In theory, yes. Though I will be recommending a fresh install.
[Nook Color Android Development] Ceger:
If I might make one suggestion. Move things like Rom Manager, Titanium Backup, Tweeter and Facebook to regular /data/app as opposed to /system/app. Makes updates/removals easier.

Ceger
[Nook Color Android Development] tenderidol:
Cool! So, we are moving to V6... :D
[Nook Color Android Development] hacku:
I agree...
[Nook Color Android Development] poppscc:
I uninstalled launcher pro without saving it to titanium backup. Is it possible to install I again?
[Nook Color Android Development] chisleu:
I think you can copy the apk from /system/app in the phiremod zipfile into your /system/app

Can't wait for the new phiremod! :)
[Nook Color Android Development] Bytion:
this mod is awsome, so awsome that I cancel my order for ipad2......

flash it with no problem but lanucher pro failled at start, reset it then no problem.

I can't find any problem right now, only thing I can't work out is the overclock stuff, but since I will never use it, doesn't reall matter.
[Nook Color Android Development] BBDDPP:
You know a mod is good when I wait on the CM7 nightly for Phiremod -- I don't even bother with the nightly builds, I wait for the beautiful work this is this mod before I upgrade! :)
[Nook Color Android Development] fntms:
One small bug I noticed with this great release, at least since 5.2: the Exchange connection works well but is lost after a while (when wifi is toggled?), at least once a day, and the NC needs to be rebooted for it to connect again...
[Nook Color Android Development] DozeBeatS:
Might be a stupid question for some. I just got my class 10 micro SD in the mail today and want to swap out my old one. Is the process as easy as copying everything over to the new card, or is there something else I need to do? Also, when I plug my Nook into my pc, I get two drives. One is a removeable disk, the other is mynookcolor. So yeah, now Im really confused. Phiremod is installed on the internal memory.
[Nook Color Android Development] Sithben24:
That's what I did, but I have the rom on my emmc.
[Nook Color Android Development] toomuchgame441:
Yea I can't wait until he releases a build of the new tab tweaks... then I'd really be set.
[Nook Color Android Development] jkurl:
to get market you need to do this. goto setting>manage application>All. Find Market and clear cache and force stop. Find Google Framework Service and clear data and then force stop reboot and then go into market and download market enabler. Select t-mobile and select fake this now. if you buy the donation of market enabler you can select t-mobile and select fake on boot and you won't have to worry about the market when you boot up.

Phil I agre w/ you I don't want the stock image and CM7 is to make it pure android and that is what I want.

I installed the OC kernel that was updated to work w/ CM7. This rom is really fast now.
[Nook Color Android Development] bburkhar:
I have tried this several times and it is not working for me.
[Nook Color Android Development] Divine_Madcat:
I don't see that at all - This install just wipes out the nook OS, because they wanted it on EMMC. But with the correct uBoot, there should be no reason at all that this cannot be setup to run on an SD card. There is nothing about this that is different from the Froyo that blocks an SD boot..
[Nook Color Android Development] sunsurfer42:
Sounds like this would work, but alas, I have no market to begin with. Flashed gapps and still no google framework or market of any kind. may have to go back to beta for the time being.
[Nook Color Android Development] jewnersey:
I got the market working!

I extracted the gapps zip, moved all the files too thrre proper place in /system (w root explorer), changed the permissions and rebooted. Cleared cache and data in market and GSF then Had to toggle "enable background data" off then on in accounts and sync, but now its going strong.
[Nook Color Android Development] stupidpopmediareference:
VERY promising ROM. I flashed and have been running it for a little while now. Here are the troubles I ran into:

1) LOTS of apps missing from Market, including many of my protected apps. The various fixes for Froyo Nookie didn't help.

2) Cyanogenmod Setting FCs Settings app.

3) Angry Birds install causes a reboot before the package installs.

With the OC kernel this ROM screams speed. I'll keep my eyes on it to see how it progresses. VERY good work.

[Nook Color Android Development] Paul22000:
What's the difference between this and the CM7 rom from the EXT4 thread?

[Edit]: The OP lists under Features:

- Gingerbread 2.3.2

- Light-weight (no bloat)

- gTab simi Clock widget included

- LCDDensity included

So is the only difference the clock widget and LCDDensity?? :confused: :confused:
[Nook Color Android Development] jkurl:
Did this give you more apps or just got market working for you? I am hoping more apps show up. I think I am going to do the same extract gaps and place them where they go.
[Nook Color Android Development] jewnersey:
Not seeing all apps :(

Marketplace missing a ton of apps.

Tried pretty much everything on this site, still nothing.

Anyone have a bunch of APKs to post up for the time being?

Things like:

Facebook

Kindle

Barnes and noble reader

Advanced task killer...etc

just a thought to help out while this gets fixed (most likely within the week).

[Nook Color Android Development] EugeneKay:
For the record, all evidence points to this being a direct repackage of thecubed's CM7 pre-release build which was made less than 24 hours ago. Some packages were added, that's about it.

As this is "based upon" CM, then a publically-viewable github of the fork should be made available, in compliance with AOSP licenses, or a direct acknowledgment that this is simply a "repo sync && brunch encore".

Also for the record, CM7 nightlies for the Encore are available at http://mirror.teamdouche.net, same as every other CM device. If you want CM, I say you look there. ;-)

Derp: Either I'm going blind, or it just disappeared.

Herp: Figured it out. They cleaned out all the nightlies.... even the ones that just built.

[Nook Color Android Development] rybo80:
Okay, I tried searching for a solution to what seems to be a common problem; couldn't find a fix though.

I've flashed phiremod v5.3, when I try to connect to wifi it just keeps looping, with wifi turning on and off, trying to obtain ip.....then turning off again. I can never get it to lock. i was having the same issue with nookiecomb too.

Can someone please help me with a few tips to get this sorted?

Much thanks,

Ryan
[Nook Color Android Development] tenderidol:
This happens rarely for me in 5.3 when I try to connect for the first time at work after being connected at home and vice versa. The solution I have is to "forget" the remembered networks (i.e., tap on them and pick "forget"). Sometimes, it works after deleting one network, while rarely it requires forgetting everything. After that it always locks to the network and never disconnects throughout the day.
[Nook Color Android Development] smiley1960:
yep. I've had this issue quite a few times over the past few months and used the same solution. Btw, this is a general Android WiFi issue. I've also had it with various Android phones. The solution is always the same. "Forget" the network and re-scan for it if you can't see it immediately.
[Nook Color Android Development] rybo80:
Thanks for the tips. I feel like I've hit forget once before and nothing worked. I will try it again consciously though and see what happens.

It's done it on nookiecomb, honycomb, and of course now phiremod. I've flashed back to stock and everything works great. Should I be flashing a kernel after flashing these custom roms?
[Nook Color Android Development] bblount:
I am having the same problem, I installed TouchDown by Nitrodesk. I love it been using it since before exchange was available on android. But I still wish exchange would work properly in this ROM
[Nook Color Android Development] tenderidol:
I am using Enhanced Email for work exchange e-mail/calendar/contacts, and I haven't had any connection problems with it. e-mails are delivered, calendar and contact entries are synced across platforms, etc. It's been the same since Phiremod 5.1, actually.
[Nook Color Android Development] rybo80:
So, I managed to get a lock on wifi while at work today. I was tethering, using my phone as a hotspot.

For some reason it still keeps looping when I try and connect to wifi from my home router?

Any thoughts?
[Nook Color Android Development] rybo80:
In my original reply I mentioned I tried searching but couldn't find a specific resolution. It sounds like you may know one.

Can you H-E-L-P me out?

Edit: So I figured it out (and not from searching this thread - which I did before posting, cough). I noticed that I could connect to wifi through my phone when using it as a hotspot, The security used on my mytouch is WPA2. As I mentioned earlier, I couldnt seem to get a wifi lock when trying to connect to my home router which uses WEP security.

So, I changed my home router over to WPA2 security, and wallah! It locked to wifi immediately!!!

Thanks to those who offered up some tips to get this going.

P.S . Great work on this rom!!!!!

[Nook Color Android Development] har02052:
I know that this might sound crazy but can you re enable the phone features within the rom? I use GV for my business. I want use an application called google voice call-back. I want to be able to click on a number in gv and tell it to call that number. It then would use the app to call my cell number and connect using gv. It is essentially the same thing that the gv app for the ipod touch does natively.

or is there a way to set this up natively? Right now gv thinks that the nook is a phone and so it tries to access the phone features within the android os which obviously don't work.

[Nook Color Android Development] har02052:
I guess it wasn't clear. I don't want to make calls with the nook. I want to click on a number to initiate a call. The app called google callback will intercept that and will instead have google voice call my cell phone to finish the call. This is what the google voice application for the ipod touch does by itself. You tell it to call a number and it then calls your phone to connect your call.

[Nook Color Android Development] arrjaytea:
I guess I'm not clear on where you're running into an issue, but it would seem to me your best bet would be to burn a bootable CWM 3.0.1 SD card with the Phiremod zip in the root directory, format data, format system, and flash the zip.

That should work just fine for you, if not, you're running into issues I've never seen or heard of before.

Thanks put it on my bootable CWM sd card and it worked just fine.
