noob question,

anyway to get the HC lockscreen on here? :P

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pMNNM-Udz1Y
[Nook Color Android Development] chisleu:
No idea on the wifi.

I like the new window animations. I'm on the latest CM7 nightly, and I would love to know how to bring that over.

You have to turn on USB drives. When you connect to usb there is a notification when you pull down the status bar. tap it, then tap to turn on usb drive.

Make sure you eject, etc, etc.
[Nook Color Android Development] Caspar07:
At least I now know how to restore, both to my stock image and to a later image :D

Ok, here's what happend.

I used the instructions here: http://theunlockr.com/2011/02/06/how-to-load-a-custom-rom-on-the-nook-color/

Upon flashing CloclworkMod recovery from Rom Manager I'm asked to choose device, and I can choose between Nook Color (old) and Nook Color?!

I selected Nook Color and it was ok.

I then copied the zip-file to the root of the SD.

Then selected Reboot into Recovery from Rom Manager.

Black screen end the message "Loading..."

Nothing happens. I turn it off, waits and turn it on again. Same "Loading..."

What did I do wrong?

Should the SD card be formatted in advance?

Should it have a special image?
[Nook Color Android Development] Neo42:
Had to delete my saved connections then all was well with wifi. Odd and annoying if I have to keep doing it. Oddly enough the xda app is unusable to me due to excessive FCs

Titanium won't restore apps

After doing the latest flash of Phiremod v5.1, I am trying to use the installed version of Titanium to restore the apps that I'd previously installed on the HC build I was using. It looks like it's doing it, but fails? Is this because I have a lesser version of OS?
[Nook Color Android Development] gford:
I had this exact same problem.
[Nook Color Android Development] gford:
This fixed mine as well.
[Nook Color Android Development] breebauer:
Try:

Settings -> Display -> Animations

There's an option for no animations (and some animations)

Hope that helps....
[Nook Color Android Development] egyan:
for some reason when I watch youtube, the nook turns off. I have it clocked at 925 mhz
[Nook Color Android Development] flipper2006:
Phiremod,

This isnt android coding directly but it belongs here.

I just want you guys to know this weekend I purchased 2 tablets and quick review. Viewsonic G-Tablet, 339.00 at Compusa, the display sucks so bad it kills the unit which is a Tegra 2 (same as Moto Xoom). Well Naturally, i returned that and got the Xoom. The Xoom (600.00) has a great display, nice battery, very fast, nice everything, but the sucker keeps crashing, not FC's but just reboots on it's own. I had 3.01 that it came with and let me tell you the Nook is just as fast and SELDOMLY crashes. With the Nook using 140 with LCD dens, the screen is better then the Xoom. The HD camera and video is nice but not really practical. Our little nook with Phiremod kicks butt. If we only got the video working better. Thats's it!
[Nook Color Android Development] Thibor69:
Well hopefully someone else can help here because it has been a while since I last did a full phiremod install... but Like I said before, the sdcard has to be partitioned with a ext4 location on it. And it has to have a bootable ClockworkMod. Search around the forums for a bootable clockworkmod image and then flash it to your sdcard via winimage. The one I use is called "4gb_clockwork-0.1-ext4.img" So basically you want a sd card that is allready setup with the correct partition's and then formated ( do the format via Rom Manager ) and then you need to have the phiremod zip file on the card also, so when you boot into ClockworkMod you can flash the phiremod zip file .... format the system and data dir's from within the CWM menu then pull the card out and reboot into the new install you just flashed.

Read the instructions again very carefully and also visit Phiremods web page for some more instructions ( down at the bottom of the page ) ( see his url in my sig )

Can someone else PLEASE correct me if I am wrong on any of these steps for this poor guy ?

Good luck

Oh ... BTW ... the file you download from here is phiremod-V5.1.tar.gz you will need to unzip that file and then put the unziped file "phiremod-nook-V5.1.zip" onto the sd card ( not the tar.gz format )

.
[Nook Color Android Development] eespiritu:
Just wait until mad-murdock puts in the HC-like modifications to the CM7 stable and phiredrop implements it into his ROM. Hopefully DSP and frame rate problems could be fixed, and bluetooth range extended. It will be legen.....wait for it....... DARY!
[Nook Color Android Development] chisleu:
Yep. These devels are epic.

I donated when they got BT working, and when they get bluetooth range improved and functional video they will get another. And again when murdoc's code is merged. I recommend everyone do the same.
[Nook Color Android Development] Caspar07:
Oops... I missed that one. I used an 8 Gb card.

I had ClockworkMod but I think I messed up with the partition sizing.

Ok, I sense that there is some basics about partitioning that I don't do right.

I start out with a clean 8 Gb mSD card, formatted with FAT32.

Using Winimage I write 4gb_clockwork-0.1-ext4.img onto the mSD card.

I assume that it takes half the space, leaving 4 Gb for another partition. Is that correct?

If yes, then I should be able to create a partition on the remaining space and format this.

Do I partition using a program like Easus and then format from my PC, or should I format from ClockworkMod?

I think that the unzip-part was about the only thing I got right :o

Another thing (which perhaps should be in another thread), I have downloaded Rom Manager and installed this on my Nook. what is the relationship between Rom Manager and ClockworkMod?

Does/can Rom Manager install ClockworkMod on an mSD card?

I know this is basic stuff, but maybe this will help others than just me!
[Nook Color Android Development] fattire:
Umm, who exactly did you donate to? The EFF, I hope.
[Nook Color Android Development] kendoori:
Can't access SD from PC with USB on Ubuntu

When I plug in via USB the SD card doesn't mount on Ubuntu. After toggling the USB debug I could get it to work under XP. When previously using HC, the SD card mounted properly on this machine.
[Nook Color Android Development] chisleu:
Cyanogen had a donation setup.

IIRC EFF has done some things that I do not support.
[Nook Color Android Development] chisleu:
Are you enabling the usb drive in the status bar?
[Nook Color Android Development] moemoney12:
Does this rom support flash, And will I still be able to use the nook as stock? Like I can with autonooter. Thanks
[Nook Color Android Development] arrjaytea:
If I understand your question, the answers are yes and no.

Flash works, but the UI will be standard Android 2.3 (on which you can install the B&N Nook App and read as you like).

Hope that helps.
[Nook Color Android Development] Thibor69:
Caspar07 - check your pm

Hey phiredrop,

Saw you over at the Vibrant threads, surprised theres a few of us modders with both Nooks and Vibrants! LoL.

Thanks for keeping our devices interesting!

[Nook Color Android Development] BlackHoleSlam:
thanks just got my nook and this is the first rom i put on it and its awesome
[Nook Color Android Development] noodles12:
Just installed phiremod 5.1 to EMMC and it's quite fast with cool animations.

The only problem I'm facing is market doesn't work. There is an empty short-cut ( clicking does nothing) on the home screen and it doesn't show up under the app drawer.

However, gmail works and connects so I know that gapps is there. I saw someone else had this problem a few pages back but it didn't get replied to (unless I'm blind).

Is this a problem for anyone else? Do I just need to install the market app from somewhere?

Thanks guys. Keep up the good work devs!
[Nook Color Android Development] relic419:
Defrost the Market with Titanium Backup (it's included in the rom).
[Nook Color Android Development] phiredrop:
Updated to V5.2 - please see changelog for details!
[Nook Color Android Development] arrjaytea:
Grabbing and flashing before I head out of town for the week. Thanks boss!
[Nook Color Android Development] ambogt:
Thx! Any plans to get the bottom status bar in Phiremod ever?
[Nook Color Android Development] ambogt:
BTW, SICK loading screen. Is this the default in CM7 now? Pretty badass

- Loaded fine after just wiping system and flashing from 5.1

- System feels SUPER responsive (and I even had madcat's kernel fix on 5.1)

Thanks!
[Nook Color Android Development] phiredrop:
To put it simply - yes.

Nope - XDA user aph created this bootanimation. Feel free to give him a "Thanks"
[Nook Color Android Development] arrjaytea:
Flashed over 5.1, no wipe, running like a charm.

I'll echo that it seems a lot more responsive and smooth from the get go.
[Nook Color Android Development] davidukfl:
any chance youtube videos and stuff are working better in this version?

THE only thing holding me back from this ROM is the youtube issues, only because my wife uses the nook for that all the time
[Nook Color Android Development] fattire:
See the main cm7 developer thread.
[Nook Color Android Development] gordy_2001:
USA today app

Any idea why the usa today app doesn't show up in the Market?

Does anybody have an APK to install it by? I tried a few I found, but they didnt work either. I cleared the cache, and it's on a clean install...
[Nook Color Android Development] jonahy:
Flash working?

Very good rom..fast ... stable ... wpa2 wifi works, youtube installed played but slow frame rate ( expected )...Bluetooth seems cant turn on.. flash player installed but didn't work in browser any work around? 5.1 played flash in browser although not that smooth...rockplayer installed video play ok.. Thank you
[Nook Color Android Development] mazook98:


I decided to test exactly that out...I have 2 new clean builds on 2 nooks running side by side....one with 5.2, and one with the updated CM7 improved video build...alas, it seems that this 5.2 was a day early, or just built around a nightly, because the video is not even comparable in quality next to the CM7 updated build...Le sigh...
[Nook Color Android Development] lschroeder:
Maybe 5.3 will be right away. Somebody over at the video build wants to try add this to his 5.2 version.

I just made a sd card version of the video build so that I have both.
[Nook Color Android Development] eespiritu:
Just installed 5.2 over 5.1 no wipe. Went ahead and installed Dalingrin's latest kernel instead of Madcat's since D made his update more recently. Everything's still stable as ever.

3 Quadrant tests report 1783, 2204, 2149

FPS still low (15-19) but I can't tell in everyday use.

The boot animation is way sweeter than the bee flying.

Animations from screen to screen definitely look and feel more responsive, but if it actually is faster remains to be seen (not that it's not, it just needs more testing.)

I personally don't like LauncherPRO, but to each their own.

Can't wait until mad-murdock's project (bottom bar + tweaks) gets stable and you implement it in 5.3 (hopefully :P)

YOU DID IT AGAIN. NICE WORK!
[Nook Color Android Development] chisleu:
No joke. I've played with that animation (I think there are different colors of the same thing floating around.)

Looks awesome. CM7/Phiremod is really sweet right now. Can't wait for the DSP code to get pushed into main and murdock's code as well.

With Phiredrop's UI/mod on it, it will be THE rom to run.
[Nook Color Android Development] wraith2626:
Flash Working?

Great ROM for the nook. I am very appreciative of the efforts here.

I did have one problem after the 5.2 install. Flash is not working for me either - uninstalled, re-installed. Was working in 5.1.

I did not wipe or clear cache, just installed over 5.1.

Anyone else have this problem, or know how to repair?

Thanks,
[Nook Color Android Development] ocujos:
Youtube has been fixed in this test CM7 version http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=960537

Any chance incorporating this fix in the next release of Phiremod?
[Nook Color Android Development] tenderidol:
Just flashed 5.2 without any problems (needed to uninstall and reinstall Flash to get it back in DolphinHD). It was good, now it's better :D

Can't wait for 5.3 with bottom status bar (hopefully) and video fix.

Thanks again phiredrop!
[Nook Color Android Development] chisleu:
This Miui Player doesn't have Folders as an option to play as, meaning you have to compile a playlist for any album you want to play which may have tags from multiple albums (ie, compilation disks such as soundtracks, etc)
[Nook Color Android Development] phiredrop:
Hmm. Did the old Miui player handle folders better?
[Nook Color Android Development] chisleu:
Yeah it had "Folders" and "Search" which this version doesn't (at least it doesn't have folders. I know it only has 4 options, not 6 like the 5.1 version.)

By selecting "Folders" on the main screen, it allowed you to select the exact folder you wanted to play from. Even Winamp doesn't have this feature.

It was great because I have many soundtracks that recognized the tags of the files being from different albums originally.

It's not a huge deal, but you have to go make a playlist if you want to play an album affected by this (of which, I have many) so that means making a bunch of playlists.

I just reverted to the 5.1 version of MiuiPlayer.apk

CPU set on boot ?

I know this is a CM7 question and not really a PhireMod question, but what the heck ... I like this forum better : )

My question is, under - Settings > CyanogenMod settings > Performance > CPU Settings > - There is an option that says "Set On Boot" (restore cpu settings on boot). Does this mean if I check the box it will go back to the old cpu setting of 800 or if I check it then it will set the cpu at 1100 like I have it set at.

In other words ... in order to keep my cpu at 1100 do I need to check this box ?

Thanks !
[Nook Color Android Development] eghill1125:
Thibor,

Yes.. Check it on for it to keep your 1100 setting..

Great ROM! Many visible improvements from 5.1!

Is anyone else using TweetDeck? I'm seeing force-closes everytime I try to open it ... appears to work fine on all my other devices.

Also any tips for battery life? I can't get more than 12 - 16 hours out of the thing before it shuts down on me (and the battery level indicator is FAR from accurate).
[Nook Color Android Development] thadeus_d3:
How do you uninstall flash? I only have the options to force stop, cancel, clear data, and move to SD card. It won't let me move to SD card or uninstall.
[Nook Color Android Development] bartonkt:
@Overdrive 33, make sure you charge to 100%, then boot into Clockwork via SD, and wipe battery stats. That will give you the most accurate battery life indication.

Honybread theme

I just flashed v.5.2 over v4.0 and so far so good. My only issue as of now is that there are only three themes under theme chooser and my favorite one is missing which is honeybread. Can this theme be found elsewhere? I REALLY liked this theme. BTW for what it's worth I didn't wipe before flashing . Sorry if this has already been answered but I searched and couldn't find an answer. Thanks.

[Nook Color Android Development] fadi33:
Only issue I had was I lost LauncherPro Plus since Launcher Pro came with the ROM. I couldn't upgrade directly over, so I had to uninstall Launcher Pro and reinstall Launcher Pro Plus, losing all my settings for LauncherPro Plus. Not a huge deal, just something for ppl to know.

Market problems under v5.2?

Has anyone experienced problems with Market?

My Wifi and Internet access is ok; browsing and Gmail works, I can launch Market and search for apps, but when download is started nothing happens.

Market says download will begin.

The status bar is flashing a little but the app is never downloaded.

I have rebootet several times but no success yet.

Can anybody offer an explanation and tell me who this can be solved?
[Nook Color Android Development] chisleu:
Cool deal. If not it's not a huge deal for me. It's not like making a few dozen playlists on a PC is very hard! :)

Hi! I followed the install instructions on the first page exactly, but all I get is the "A N D R O I D _" flashing cursor after I install the zip. I let it sit for over an hour, finally I gave up, went back into CWR, re-did everything and same result. Any ideas? Now I have a non-functioning Nook but at least I can get into CWR.

Thanks!

once again, I use a app call systemApp Remover can uninstall all rom apps

it can uninstall LauncherPro free version..( backup all your plus setting) the u can reinstall LauncherPro Plus restore the setting

If you made a backup of your LauncherPro+ settings through the preferences, just apply those to become + again. ;)

Did you use cwr to format your emmc as ext4? Can you use "adb shell" (assuming you've installed adb) or "adb logcat" to get an idea of where things have gone wrong?

Yes I am using It, Thanks so much for all your hard work, I love this ROM.
[Nook Color Android Development] ChaOConnor:
How do I use cwr to format emmc as ext4? I went into mountsa and storage and formatted system first, then data, but I don't see anything about ext4. Thank you!

I use v5.2 with lots of problems ...

Wireless sometimes does not work and wifi icon still active.

I cannot activete Bluetooth ...

I cannot update launch pro !...

Yes i forgot to backup my settings. Lesson learned.

But now I got a bigger problem. After I entered my credentials for twitter and facebook to use the friends widget, I am getting a constant FC of LauncherPro. I can't access anything since its constantly FC Launcher Pro so I can change any settings, etc. Ive rebooted a few times and its still the same. And ideas?

lock screen missing

ok so first install i just installed over build 30 of cm7, it installed fine, looked ok but couldnt find the hc lockscreen (tried all the cm lockscreen options)

tried fresh install with system/cache/data wipe now there is still no HC lockscreen....any help?
[Nook Color Android Development] bartonkt:
I use ADW, didn't like the feel of Launcher Pro...but its easy enough to switch.
[Nook Color Android Development] tenderidol:
Thanks!

I've been using ADW with your ROMs and it works great. I guess it's better to have "options" for other people, although downloading if from the Market is not that difficult if anyone wants to user LauncherPro or vice versa.

Looking forward to 5.3 :D

Thanks!
