My nook slept for a total of 17 hours with no problem waking up.

Battery started at 94%, and after 17 hours of sleep its at 96%. Tesla would be very proud :D

The only issue I am seeing is with the sensitivity of the edges of the touchscreen...

EDIT: I just got an email, and the gmail notification played over and over and over and over and over until I opened up the message.... hmmmm....

I also just tried to run VLCremote and AWARemote, and they both crash...here is the log file...
[Nook Color Android Development] niphoet:
Agreed. Really makes playing Air Control hard :)

Otherwise, everything seems fast and stable. Keep up the good work!
[Nook Color Android Development] hirano:
Noticed that too, dolphin lite is unusable. Can't switch between tabs.:(
[Nook Color Android Development] ADude:
For Market Search, use the Tablet-Tweaks Soft Search Button, or else Menu->Search.

( Hmm, dalingrin was about to release Beta 3 last night, and didn't - perhaps some last minute glitches ? )
[Nook Color Android Development] Thirtybird:
I think CBW has some issues with this kernal build (both beta 1 and beta 2) - It doesn't appear to register events (charge state change battery level change) properly. I installed Battery Widget and placed it alongside CBW on my screen, and Battery Widget changes when I plug/unplug the charger, and the charge percentage changes as expected.

If I change the screen orientation (which reloads the widgets under VTL Launcher I think), CBW will update and show proper charge level and charging state. This was not happening under CM 7.0.3 with the 4/24 OC kernal
[Nook Color Android Development] :
Woohoo! Netflix works!

Ace I checked the link. I'd really love to be able to do this. Could u please post detailed instructions on how to.edit it, including program to use? Thanks.
[Nook Color Android Development] mooja:
its in the thread he quoted
[Nook Color Android Development] dalingrin:
Market purchases are fixed now. It was unrelated to the 2.6.32 update and affected all new builds. Thanks for finding and reporting the bug.

Next build(Beta3) will be up in a few hours.

Changes:

* Market fix

* Workaround for sleep issues. This will kill the process that is causing the sleep issue. This means if you DONT have Settings->Applications->Debugging->Stay Awake checked then USB will be killed if the Nook tries to sleep. This is a temporary workaround until the real issue is found. The workaround is only a backup in case someone doesn't have the "Stay Awake" option enabled. It appears that B&N has this "Stay Awake" option permanently enabled on the stock 1.2 rom but I want to fix the real issue.

* Overclock kernel will be released along-side beta3
[Nook Color Android Development] J-ROCK:
Oh yeah cant wait!!
[Nook Color Android Development] seth.i.simmons:
When we're updating to beta3, do we need to do a complete wipe and fresh install, or can we just wipe the cache and install over our existing install (when updating from beta2)??
[Nook Color Android Development] paleh0rse:
U da man now dawg!
[Nook Color Android Development] J-ROCK:
I tried it,didnt work for me. Maybe I did something wrong.
[Nook Color Android Development] paleh0rse:
Did you reboot after editing build.prop?
[Nook Color Android Development] J-ROCK:
Yes, I did. And edited everything as written.
[Nook Color Android Development] niphoet:
I'm wondering about this also......
[Nook Color Android Development] iDidItAll4theNookie:
I loaded beta 2 onto an SD card using the size agnostic method. Worked quite well, but gReader FC on me. It loads my feeds, but it won't load the actual content. Seems rather odd, since everything else is working like a charm.

Anyway, great work. I am excited to see where it goes.

As for negative battery drain, "Lisa, in this house we obey the laws of thermodynamics!"
[Nook Color Android Development] dalingrin:
No need to wipe from beta2 to beta3
[Nook Color Android Development] mooja:
out of curiosity, what speeds is the b3 oc gonna be at *_*
[Nook Color Android Development] seth.i.simmons:
Thanks!

On a a side note, does anyone know how to get "My Apps" back in the Market after editing build.prop to change the LCD density?? I love having mine set at 140, but I hate losing "my apps". Any way around this, or should I just set it back to 161 and deal with it?
[Nook Color Android Development] paleh0rse:
The gReader app has been failing for me -- same symptoms as yours -- ever since nightly 61. I had to switch to JustaReader...
[Nook Color Android Development] dalingrin:
B3 will still come with a 925mhz kernel like stock CM7. But the OC kernel will be 1.1ghz and 1.2ghz. 1.3ghz is not stable with 2.6.32. On the bright side the voltage is lower on 1.2ghz and still stable.

It will also have the Smartass governor instead of interactive. Smartass is the interactive governor but with a built in SetCPU profile-like functionality. When the screen is off it will limit the Nook to 300mhz-600mhz.

There are a few other tweaks in the OC kernel with more to come once time permits.
[Nook Color Android Development] Divine_Madcat:
Sounds good to me. I think 1.2Ghz and .32 will more than exceed 1.3Ghz and .29.... .32 overall is just much faster. Dalingrin, thank you again for all your amazing work!
[Nook Color Android Development] ADude:
Two questions:

- What do you recommend for those who use the stock AC charger, when using Beta 3 ? Tick "Stay Awake" ?

- What do you do to charge your Nook ? :confused:
[Nook Color Android Development] dalingrin:
Thanks. I'm happy with the performance in my testing so far.
[Nook Color Android Development] dalingrin:
With 2.6.32 always leave the "Stay Awake" option enabled until further notice. I just charge my nook via USB on my desktop.

Nemith submitted a patch so that we can make Stay Awake the default.
[Nook Color Android Development] seth.i.simmons:
Wow, can't wait to see what this kernels gonna be like at 1.2, its already as fast as 1.3 on the .29 kernel for me! Ask can't wait to see the future tweaks. Can't even begin to say how grateful I am for all your work dalingrin, you've turned my mediocre tablet into a beast!
[Nook Color Android Development] deadbot1:
B2 with 1.2 update...had to force off to get screen to come back on...well technically that isn't correct...the backlight was on. Looking forward to B3. Thanks for busting ass on this and the other work you've done Dalingrin.
[Nook Color Android Development] rainmaker002:
I've not yet flashed the 1.2 u-boot.bin, still running an old nightly as it's been rock solid so I felt no need to tinker. Looks like .32 is about to make a big leap forward, so a quick question: when I flash the forthcoming b3, do I also need to flash the u-boot.bin separately or is it included?
[Nook Color Android Development] GabbleRatchet:
How many times can I hit refresh before my family should start to worry?
[Nook Color Android Development] J-ROCK:
Yea my nook and dalingrin are gonna get me divorced, if I keep updating my nook! Lol! My nook has officially taking the #1 spot away from my xbox and black ops!
[Nook Color Android Development] dalingrin:
uboot will not be included so you will need to update it separately. I have no plans to bundle u-boot and CM7 together because there are too many people who use custom u-boots.
[Nook Color Android Development] Divine_Madcat:
If you can still read the lettering on the button, you aren't pressing it enough. :D
[Nook Color Android Development] bekyndnunwind:
When I get a new email, the default Gmail notification plays in an endless loop (even after the screen has turned off). Is anyone else seeing this ???
[Nook Color Android Development] dalingrin:
Yes but only on my Captivate running CM7. Looks like an upstream issue.
[Nook Color Android Development] capnblackleg:
stoked.

Had another wake issue should I start over or just wait for b3?
[Nook Color Android Development] iDidItAll4theNookie:
Yeah, my consoles just lie there, bored and restless. I'm kinda streaky on them anyway. The last time I've been this distracted was hackintoshing. Its definitely an OCD thing. :D
[Nook Color Android Development] dalingrin:
Please describe what happened? I still can't reproduce any of these sleep issues.
[Nook Color Android Development] capnblackleg:
Once its been asleep for a few hours, it wont wake back up and I need to power cycle to bring it back.

I've flashed the 1.2 boot and all seems fine until I let it sleep for an extended period of time.
[Nook Color Android Development] dalingrin:
Did you wipe everything before you flashed? Not saying you have to just asking
[Nook Color Android Development] chadamir:
Dal, do you recommend wiping before going from a .29 nightly into a .32? Also, how similar is the droid 1 and nook hardware? I've noticed that clock for clock the nook gets lower scores on linpack than on cm7 for droid. Do you think this is related to kernel version? Additionally, I noticed you changed the refresh rate from 48hz to 60 hz on .32 on github will that be included here and what refresh rate is used on .29?
[Nook Color Android Development] capnblackleg:
I wiped caches but I left system and data alone. I came over from 7.0.2 stable.
[Nook Color Android Development] fattire:
Yes, but will it have BFS? :rolleyes:
[Nook Color Android Development] ADude:
Thanks for your reply.

When you post the Beta 3 download link, please list the MD5 for the file. (That helps prevent problem reports that are due to incomplete downloads, and is provided by many devs.)

For anyone who needs one, an excellent free MD5 checker for Windows is at:

[Nook Color Android Development] lafester:
Md5 is overkill for the NC...
[Nook Color Android Development] violinbf:
Dal, first off I love your work. I have owned the nook color since feb and it is astonishing how far it has come.

I have noticed one persistant issue when playing dsp decoded streaming video (from the tv.com or cnet apps for example). I frequently get random crashes or the message that "this video cannot be played". This is on "stock" cm7 .29, the overclock .29 and your new beta .32. This might occur every few minutes, or at longer intervals it sems random. Very annoying to have to restart the video and seek every couple minutes. Any idea what's up with this?

again thank you for your incredible contributions!
[Nook Color Android Development] Backwardsblade:
I usually try to stay on topic, this is supposed to be the dev thread, but thanks again dalingrin and crew! I can't imagine the hours that you're putting into this. This new kernel already flies at 925, can't wait to see what's next!
[Nook Color Android Development] ADude:
It has nothing to do with the device, it has to do with downloading.

Most download links in this Forum have MD5's.
[Nook Color Android Development] joenathane:
I think the real question here is, will it run Crysis?
[Nook Color Android Development] Nburnes:
Because that hasn't been overused or anything.
[Nook Color Android Development] ADude:

Best Friends for Seconds :D
[Nook Color Android Development] joenathane:
When will the new kernel be worked into the CM repos?
[Nook Color Android Development] capnblackleg:
Out of curiosity, were most people formatting system when installing the beta? I've only done that once when installing CM7 the first time and never since touched it. I'm just wondering if that might be why I can't wake this thing up once its been asleep for more than a couple hours.
[Nook Color Android Development] newellj79:
I'm running nightly 7 right now. For sure making the switch t0 beta 3, and oc kernel when they r released. Ill use the 1.2 uboot. Is it advised to do a full wipe including data and then use tb to restore apps? If its not necassary I'd like to keep my setup. Please don't respond its been asked before yada,yada yada. A simple yes or no would great. Thanks.

His words were "in a few" which usually means minutes. That was about 20 hours ago. :p
[Nook Color Android Development] ADude:
Better that the code is right, and not rushed to release.

So, give it some patience.
[Nook Color Android Development] MedLine:
badabing! hey that's genuinely funny ... guy's also a comedian
[Nook Color Android Development] ADude:
He is not late this time, as he said 2.5 hours ago:

"Few" usually connotes three or more, since if it were two, you would use "couple of hours".
[Nook Color Android Development] funcrusher:
Same exact thing has been happening to me. I came from 7.0.3.1 and only wiped dalvik/cache.
[Nook Color Android Development] capnblackleg:
Glad I'm not the only one. I'm thinking we should have taken care of it all.

As for all the impatient people, we're beta testing here folks, hang tight and give the man some time.
[Nook Color Android Development] GrillMouster:
I've been through just about all the nightlies, stable versions, and OC kernels. I'm currently on the second beta with the B&N 1.2 u-boot. I've only ever wiped cache and dalvic between each version. No problems.
[Nook Color Android Development] capnblackleg:
When you set your device down, do you deliberately turn the screen off? (hitting the power button)

I habitually do that, not that it has anything to do with it, but it sounds like we're running the same thing. You've had it sleep more than a couple hours and it awoke without any issues?

Anyways, I just want to report what I'm experiencing since this is beta. I'll hang tight and have another beer.
[Nook Color Android Development] hockeyfamily737:
My poor nook is still unresponsive to any input whatsoever (18 hours). It appears as though it's sacrificed it's life in the name of research :(

[Nook Color Android Development] newellj79:
Thank u kind sir. I too have been thru every release. Just wasn't willing to make the switch until there was a overclock kernel.
[Nook Color Android Development] capnblackleg:
Gotta say dude, I feel bad for you and before you do anything rash, hold out in case a light bulb goes off over someones head.
[Nook Color Android Development] paleh0rse:
Did your leave it plugged into the wall charger that entire time?
[Nook Color Android Development] hockeyfamily737:
No need to feel bad. I knew what I was doing. I'll just put it away and see what happens down the road.

[Nook Color Android Development] mr_fosi:
I wouldn't give it up until I'd disconnected/reconnected the battery.

Based on that teardown I posted earlier, I am sure that (with care) you can get it apart and put back together with ease. I've cobbled together working mobiles from the parts of others. Compared to them, the NC dis/reassembly looks pretty straight-forward.

Of course... I'd boot/ADB test it before I put it fully back together.
[Nook Color Android Development] hockeyfamily737:
No. I'be been trying to connect it for an hour or so at a clip, every few hours and nothing.

sent from my Ginger-Hero CDMA
[Nook Color Android Development] GrillMouster:
I've done both - turned the screen off and let it time out on its own. It has sat for hours in both situations and I have not had problems with it waking from sleep. Battery drain has been exceptionally minimal.
[Nook Color Android Development] paleh0rse:
Since it appears completely dead, you may be able to get it repaired/replaced at B&N...
[Nook Color Android Development] Divine_Madcat:
Overkill. At worst, he will just need to let the battery run out. Though, if the CPU is stuck in the deep sleep, that could take weeks...... perhaps a replacement is more viable.. heh.
[Nook Color Android Development] hockeyfamily737:
I was thinking battery run out.....It's sitting in the freezer trying to induce battery drain. We'll see.

sent from my Ginger-Hero CDMA
[Nook Color Android Development] GrillMouster:
That's just what I was thinking about letting the battery run out, but wasn't sure how long that would take given that I only lost one percent all day. Might be worth cracking it open to disconnect and re-connect the battery.
[Nook Color Android Development] GrillMouster:
Hockey, you try holding the power button for a full minute? Try it several times in the row?
[Nook Color Android Development] hockeyfamily737:
No recorded success stories of reassembly. I already considered it and looked at tear down photos.

sent from my Ginger-Hero CDMA
[Nook Color Android Development] dalingrin:
I have a hard time believing that your Nook is dead due to a sleep issue. I would look at using another cable. B&N had a bad batch of cables that eventually short out. FatTire had this same problem about a month ago. His Nook died and couldn't bring it back but come to find out it was his power cable.

Even if it was stuck in deep sleep, holding down the power button should turn it off.
[Nook Color Android Development] hockeyfamily737:
Yeah. Can't get ADB either.

Sorry, I wanted to get a few more changes in. Specifically, I have fixed the touch screen responsiveness around the edges and I want to get a permanent wake lock while using USB that does not require the user to select the option.
[Nook Color Android Development] ADude:
Uh, I'm pretty sure that you store batteries in the freezer to keep them from running down as fast.
[Nook Color Android Development] capnblackleg:
Would it hurt to just to start over and format the system this time? Its just really bugging me that this is happening.
[Nook Color Android Development] chadamir:
I was beginning to think the responsiveness around edges was just me. You're the best.
[Nook Color Android Development] Divine_Madcat:
You are thinking of film....
[Nook Color Android Development] capnblackleg:
I thought the same thing, I used to keep batts in the freeze to keep them "good"
[Nook Color Android Development] rhester72:
...but in reality, the opposite is true. :) (I used to do it too...)

[Nook Color Android Development] chadamir:
Actually once he takes the nook out he risks damage due to condensation. http://www.snopes.com/oldwives/battery.asp

That's why when people use ln2 and dry ice to overclock they have to protect their boards.
[Nook Color Android Development] ADude:
And you and I were right:

http://batteryuniversity.com/learn/article/how_to_store_batteries

but the refrig, not the freezer:

Here is an simpler explanation:

http://chemistry.about.com/b/2008/01/04/cold-batteries-hold-charge-better.htm

but there is no doubt that putting it in the freezer will make the charge run out slower, as well as harming the battery and the Nook.
[Nook Color Android Development] capnblackleg:
right, my butter door was full of batts.

Now its full of snus, since I know that works.

Regardless, I hope hockey dude's nook comes around or at least he's a fan of a team that still has a shot at the cup unlike my Caps.

EDIT - Sorry for the off topic post, to add some relevance, I haven't had another wake issue, so 2 hours isn't the key mark. Still debating on just wiping it all and reflashing.
[Nook Color Android Development] lyam23:
Fyi: I went from 7.0.0 to the beta 2 and uboot 2.1. Seemingly no rproblems until.. frequent system freezes. Usually every 15 minutes or so. Also aldiko seems to disappear from the app drawer on reboot but reappears after a short few minutes.

No wipes before flashing.
[Nook Color Android Development] gbeardmore:
Nope, the cold is what kills car batteries in the winter. You should try starting a car at 30 Below here in Green Bay!

Thanks for this information. Nook's back in my dresser.

[Nook Color Android Development] GchNYadM:
Since the cold isn't the answer, maybe try setting it on fire? That should drain the battery pretty quickly :p seriously I'm sure your nook is ok, just let it drain and hopefully that will fix the issue!
[Nook Color Android Development] bekyndnunwind:
The cold slows down the battery. It slows charging and discharging. It slows down the chemical reactions happening in the battery.
[Nook Color Android Development] funcrusher:
Try hooking up it via usb to your comp, pop the sdcard out, then hold down the power button -- that's how I've gotten mine back up the two times I've found my "dead" since on beta 2.
[Nook Color Android Development] capnblackleg:
Then you and I are experiencing something different. I've been able to power cycle mine without every touching a cord.

First round is on me :)
[Nook Color Android Development] Ophbalance:
hockey> If you do have an SD card in the nook yet, yank it. I ran into this as well with a funky formatted SD card. It'd basically boot to a blacked out screen, but you'd never know unless you were in a pitch black room (light bleed on the edges). As soon as I pulled the card, and held the power down for a good 30 seconds, it'd boot for me. I'd have to put the card in after the nook started booting to prevent it from happening again.
[Nook Color Android Development] celyst:
Noticed this recurring issue with the various ROMs that I've flashed to my Nook Color - my NC is not very responsive. I've watched a few Youtube videos such as xboxexpert's build and I'm not getting the same kind of performance he gets on Gun Bros (0:46).

I first tried phiremod v6.2 @ 1.1Ghz, now I'm on the newest .32 beta 2 @ 925Mhz ondemand. Quadrant score is 1439. Both times I installed to the emmc.

Are there any other factors that may be affecting my speed? If it helps, I'm using a Class 4 microsd card, Kingston brand.
[Nook Color Android Development] dalingrin:
I haven't tried Gun Bros in a while but that looked like the same performance I got on CM7. Have you wiped recently? I would check to see if an app is running in the background and using too many resources.
[Nook Color Android Development] Divine_Madcat:
I used to have an install on a Kingston class 4... it was HORRIBLE. A quick switch to a Sandisk class2, and i was blown away. Don;t let the class ratings confuse you. A good brands class 2 (Sandisk) will blow away cheap company's class 4 & 6......
[Nook Color Android Development] GchNYadM:
So Dal now that we have Netflix on our nook colors any ETA on when you will have the sound app available :p thanks for all the work you do btw!
[Nook Color Android Development] celyst:
Wiped what? I just did a fresh install for .32 - formatted system, data, cache, reset battery stats, flashed CM7, then wiped dalvik cache and rebooted. And how can I check on background apps? Do I need a separate app? First time Android user here, been using iOS before that =)

@Divine_Madcat: Would it still make a difference since I installed to the emmc? The application and its files are on the SD card though. If it's the SD card then I might go get a better one. Since my Kingston came with a mini card reader I'll just slot it in and use it as a 4GB thumbdrive =).
