Where can I find the latest cm7 compatible Google apps zip?
[Nook Color Android Development] rulevoid:
Try advanced taskkiller frequency set to crazy and on screen off. I barely lose any juice over night.
[Nook Color Android Development] newellj79:
I noticepd that dalingrins bt build came with a Texas instrument app that is to be used with wireless headphones ( I think). Its not included in build v17. Is anybody familiar with it? Also I can't get it to pair with my wiimotes, it recognizes it then asks for a pin?

[Nook Color Android Development] jkurl:
A TI chip runs the sound. That is probably why he included it.
[Nook Color Android Development] fattymcdirty:
noticed it too... i see my wiimote, but i can not pair it due to the lack of pin code :/ anny suggestions?
[Nook Color Android Development] philburkhardt:
Try it through one of the wiimote apps in the market.
[Nook Color Android Development] tristanwolf1134:
Should just skip PIN.
[Nook Color Android Development] fattymcdirty:
you can't.. then it cancels..

btw.. any1 else having the issue not being able to activate bluetooth?

got nightly 17 installed... it's not getting activated anymore.. :(
[Nook Color Android Development] matalo:
I promise I did a search in this thread, and I admit I am on two hours sleep only and have not had my coffee, but I thought I read that as of build 15 you could mount your internal memory. I just cannot find the instructions to do so.

Can someone please help this tired newbie?
[Nook Color Android Development] jewnersey:
Your internal storage should be mounted as the emmc folder.

Is the battery draining issue we are having because cm7 still doesn't actually go into sleep mode?

from my NookCOLOR, *****es
[Nook Color Android Development] philburkhardt:
Yeah, mine just turns right off. I have done a clean install of 17 and the OC kernel w/ Bluetooth, 3 times. Wiped everything (except boot, of course), and still nothing.
[Nook Color Android Development] tominabox1:
Just did a clean wipe and install of 17 but the line in the notification pulldown is still there. I'll get a pic. Also it goes away when you set dpi above 161...
[Nook Color Android Development] tony1208:
All I can say is wow!

BT works fine haha...just updated to! 17 via cmw in rom manager instead of the cwm SD way and worked fine....this nook gets better and better....I just wish the YouTube app would work haha..
[Nook Color Android Development] newellj79:
Had the same problem. Download and use the wiimote app. It works great. Download a emulator that supports it and your all set. Just finished playing a old school game of Contra!
[Nook Color Android Development] bratliff:
A big thank you to the devs.. Works great. Rocked some super mario 3.
[Nook Color Android Development] ArmitageID:
Indeed. Happy as well! In order for it to work I assume there would need to be some app like ibluever for Android. That way you could connect to the PDANet running on the BlackBerry.
[Nook Color Android Development] bonobomidwest:
there is one school of thought that given how multitasking isdesigned in android that task killers actually increase battery drain.

With a virgin CM7 v17 setup + OC + interactive governor + wireless always on, my battery lasts all day with pretty heavy use. i would make sure you don't have extra stuff on there that is fighting with the system that makes it constantly active even if the screen is off... e.g. like a task killer app :)

Remember there's a lot built in CM7 that you used to need to add apps for (like setcpu) that if you now add them cause problems... too many cooks spoil the broth :)
[Nook Color Android Development] bonobomidwest:
Hi everyone

I Have started a thread over in accessories, with the intention of trying to put all the knowledge of working (and non-working) bluetooth devices together in one place in a standard format. Hopefully this wil help the communty and the DEVS

Bluetooth not working for me

I installed CM7 17 before the BT 031111 update (didn't see the BT initially) . Bluetooth doesn't switch on. You're using the Settings/Wireless/Turn on Bluetooth checkbox?

Any thoughts? I did wipe cache and dalvik before installing the BT.
[Nook Color Android Development] norazi:
whats the difference between the different CWR image sizes? ie if i have an 8gb microSD do i use the 8gb image? what happens if i use a 4gb image?
[Nook Color Android Development] isamu:
If you use a smaller image, the free space will be smaller, ie: if you use a 4Gb image on an 8Gb card, your device/computer will think it's only 4GB, the rest is wasted. It won't "hurt" the card, you just won't be able to access the rest of the storage space. You can use a partition tool to reclaim the lost space. I read that you can extend the 4th partition (I forgot what it's called).
[Nook Color Android Development] dillydawes:
Went from Nookie froyo to Cm7 nightly and im loving it. Both using the oc kernel set at 1Ghz..... All the apps that i had with nookie i have with cm7 using market enabler.

I can believe how easy the devs have made this process.... I will be donating .... just wanted to thank every one.

Bluetooth Success.

I have a rooted cliq on android 2.1.

I was able to transfer files over bluetooth after pairing.

Been trying to setup a Bluetooth DUN connection to allow the nook to access my phones network (and gps over wifi which I already have working)

My phone doesn't have iptables support in the kernel so I can't use the android-wifi-tether and the barnacle app I'm using does work for network connections, but does not work w/ the gps app (TetherGPS doesn't see the network setup by barnacle and tries to xmit gps data across the outside network.)

Any ideas? :)
[Nook Color Android Development] newellj79:
Bt worked with Wiimote no problem for me but having trouble getting it to connect with my laptop. Its says paired but not connected. Any ideas?
[Nook Color Android Development] chisleu:
SUCCESS!!!

What a night. I tried many apps and this is what I was able to get to work for me.

phone: rooted (SuperOneClick) android 2.1 Motorola Cliq

*) Software: "Barnacle Wifi Tether" & "Bluetooth GPS"

EDIT: Changed software "GPS 2 Bluetooth v.2" doesn't work for me for streaming data

Barnacle requires root and su. "Bluetooth GPS" is $1.99usd. It is availble for download in the market, but I couldn't get my card to work in canadian dollars so I had to paypal them directly via thier website for the unlock code. It worked to test, but turned off every 10 minutes. Well worth the $2 IMO.

tablet: CM7 3/11-BT NCEncore

*) Software: "Bluetooth GPS Provider"

Connect to network with wifi

Run Bluetooth GPS Provider and connect to the phone. It basically imports the gps data into a mock gps device on the tablet.

Totally works!!! This is epic!!! I can now use my phone w/ my tablet to have an in-car GPS nav system as well as media center and mobile internet... This is so epic!! THANK YOU!!!

When CM7 gets functional video, I'm going to be so pleased! As soon as my wife authorizes, I will be donating! <3 <3 <3

EDIT: Donated! Keep up the good work!
[Nook Color Android Development] chisleu:
It doesn't "connect". What are you trying to do? Transfer files? I am not sure, but it seems that the bluetooth drivers they are using do not include certain things, such as BT-Dialup/etc support.
[Nook Color Android Development] MkFly:
Anybody have Live Wallpaper working in nightly 17? I have LiveWallpapersPicker.apk 2.3.2 installed, and they broke with nightly 13, I hoped they would start working again in 17.

The picker loads, but the live wallpapers themselves don't. I've installed all of the nightly builds over the previous one, do I need to do a clean wipe?

Also, the battery icon in the notification bar seems blurrier than it did before. I thought that was maybe due to the LCD density being set to 161, but I set it back to 160 and it's still blurry ...
[Nook Color Android Development] Paul22000:
Flashed v17 over v8 and wiped cache and dalvik cache.

Rebooted and turned on BT, paired with a Motorola S305 and BAM, good to go.

Unfortunately, the range is literally about 5 inches. Literally. I can listen to music with my Nook up next to my ears, and then I pull it away and the sound cuts out. Bring it close; sound comes back; farther out, sound disappears.

Anyone else having better range with a Bluetooth stereo headset?

Anyway, I have to say this is pretty freakin' amazing. The guys who are working on the Nook Color must be absolute geniuses. My god, I wish I had the knowledge to do what they do.
[Nook Color Android Development] KitF:
It's mounted to /emmc/ in CM7.
[Nook Color Android Development] newellj79:
Transfer files.

anybody get the psx app to run on cm7? I'm looking for emlators to use with wiimote. Nes works perfect but I'd like to move up about 10 years technology wise :). Thanx.
[Nook Color Android Development] jmhalder:
fpse is fast, and works smooth with no filtering on. psx4droid is much more compatible with games in general, but is significantly slower than fpse.
[Nook Color Android Development] newellj79:
Have you gotten psx to run in cm7, NC though? If so I couldn't use some help.
[Nook Color Android Development] ouldsmobile:
Yes it is working fine for me in Nightly 17. I installed nightly 15 cleanly and then 17 over top of 15. Live wallpapers works fine still. I have the same version of the picker as you I believe.
[Nook Color Android Development] newellj79:
What is the name of this app in the market? I've yet to get live wall papers to work.
[Nook Color Android Development] lucifurious:
Possibly stupid question

Is is possible to set my Nook's IMEI to match my phone? If so, how?
[Nook Color Android Development] tj!2k7:
Yes, I'm interested to know how to get lwp working as well... thanks.

[Nook Color Android Development] flammenwurfer:
I've installed flash player and the youtube app. No youtube videos will play in the app or in the browser. I can play some other flash videos in the browser but they are very choppy.

Is that just the current state of the rom? Or do I need to do something else to get this working?
[Nook Color Android Development] tj!2k7:
I'm pretty sure that's just the current state; I believe it's due to lack of hardware acceleration.
[Nook Color Android Development] newellj79:
V18 just posted.
[Nook Color Android Development] tj!2k7:
I'd asked about CIFS support a while ago but never got a response.

Sure would be nice, but I can understand where that might lie on the list of priorities.
[Nook Color Android Development] :
Anyone know where I can find a changelog online for it? Want to see what they did. Thanks, flashing now...

[Nook Color Android Development] MkFly:
Hrm, maybe I'll have to do a clean install then. :( I cleared data/removed the picker app and all the LW's, then reinstalled, same deal. Ah well, clean install time!

The Picker app is here, v2.3.2 (latest that I know of):

I pulled the other Live Wallpapers from one of the CM7 releases before they removed it from the nightlies, I can upload that if you need it. :)
[Nook Color Android Development] chisleu:
I'm using the 3/11/2011 build (as a fresh install) and it works beautifully with live wallpapers. I only use the blue skies one though.

[Nook Color Android Development] KDOG2020:
Some quick questions: I just got NF 0.68 working but I'm tempted to try this...

Is this a CWR flashable zip?

Will I lose all my apps if I do this to the eMMC? How could I save my purchased apps if I want to flash this to the internal memory? I like to do it that way cuz I don't like the whole SD card install thing. Thanks in advance.
[Nook Color Android Development] lafester:
yes, flash with cwr... backup apps with titanium. flash cm7 and setup. then reinstall apps with titanium. or you can reinstall from market if you want.
[Nook Color Android Development] KDOG2020:
Ok I backed up my paid apps with Titanium. I'm SO tempted to try this. I need CWR 3.0.1.0 correct? I heard that I can update install that via "itself" ... confirm?
[Nook Color Android Development] adma84:
no, use this to install CWR the first time, then all subsequent updates can be done via rom manager:

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=971197

then just flash like normal
[Nook Color Android Development] KDOG2020:
Uh-oh.... Got a problem. The new CWR installed fine cuz I can see it in the version label in ROM manager, but now the Nook won't get past the "Touch the Future of Reading" screen at bootup. If I remove the card it will bootup completely just fine. And when I install the card afterward its ok. ( I have NOT installed CM7 yet.) I removed the CWR zip along with the NookFroyo zip file off the card thinking it was trying to boot one of those up or something but it made no difference. Suggestions?
[Nook Color Android Development] Philosophy757:
You may want to move anything you want to keep off the card, reformat it, put your stuff back, then put it back in the nook. It may help.
[Nook Color Android Development] KDOG2020:
I will give that a shot...
[Nook Color Android Development] tj!2k7:
Perfect, simply installed that apk and am able to use LWPs again. Thanks! =)
[Nook Color Android Development] adma84:
make sure to re-nandroid backup with the new CWR before you flash CM7 to your newly formatted card
[Nook Color Android Development] KDOG2020:
Huh? Whats that? I already did the format :( but it worked. I'm still debating on doing the CM7...hmmm....
[Nook Color Android Development] adma84:
I meant, boot into CWR and do a backup with CWR of your current setup, before you try CM7 (which you should definitely do)
[Nook Color Android Development] chisleu:
bluetooth isn't like samba or FTP. if you want to transfer a file you just send it (share)
[Nook Color Android Development] chisleu:
Just to be sure, this is the way one updates from CM7-"16" (3/11 build) to CM18, correct?
[Nook Color Android Development] adma84:
yeah, you can just flash a new nightly over an old one
[Nook Color Android Development] chisleu:
Won't be losing apps and such? or should I be taking steps to backup the device?
[Nook Color Android Development] adma84:
always backup before flashing an upgrade, but no, you should not lose apps. This replaces /system files mostly, not your /data (which is where your apps and data are)
[Nook Color Android Development] KDOG2020:
Maybe I should hold off until a "stable" finished release comes out... I'm hearing that CM7 is quite buggy and I want EVERYTHING working when I do this....
[Nook Color Android Development] adma84:
It's a little buggy, but I could not go back to Eclair. Things are pretty good in the land of CM.
[Nook Color Android Development] Nburnes:
Can't say this has been buggy for me at all. Been running every newest nightly that has come out, and the only big issue left (for me at least) is DSP. Rockplayer has been working fine for all my video needs though.
[Nook Color Android Development] Novarider:
I can't get Bluetooth to turn on. I'm running version 17 but when I click on bluetooth it just flashes for like a miliseccond then turns back off. Whats do I need to do to get it turned on?
[Nook Color Android Development] adma84:
I don't know, my build worked ok. check my twitter name below for the build
[Nook Color Android Development] tylechri:
I had the same problem when I flashed the newest firmware using Rom Manager. I had to manually go in to CWM and format my cache. Once I did that bluetooth worked perfectly.
[Nook Color Android Development] Novarider:
I flashed version 18 and now bluetooth says its turning on for about 5 seconds then that goes away and it never turns on. I booed into recovery and wiped cache and dalvik cache but that didn't help.
[Nook Color Android Development] j.a:
Try shutting down completely (not reboot), then restart. It should work after that.
[Nook Color Android Development] RoboRay:
Can you be specific about what these bugs are that you're "hearing about"? I'm running CM7 and haven't really encountered any significant issues.

CM "nightly" versions tend to be more stable than the "finished" releases of many ROMs. Cyanogen sets the bar very high, which is why CM has earned the reputation is has.
[Nook Color Android Development] chisleu:
Indeed. I've had very few problems and they are just weird minor stuff. The only thing that comes to mind is sometimes when you try to clear notifications when there is something that would normally stay in there, the clear button won't work. IE, an app has a notification that an FTP server is running and you click clear to remove an "installation successful" notification but the button to clear notifications won't work. Not exactly a huge problem.

But if you are worried about any posible problems, don't use it! It's like alpha software. It works for many, but it might not work for you. If you are using a nook as a mission-critical device, we have other things to discuss.
[Nook Color Android Development] newellj79:
Reboot and it should work.
[Nook Color Android Development] Snyperx:
Just a quick note. If you follow the commits for the encore release you can tell what has changed between nightly builds. In the case of build 17 and 18 nothing changed between the two. SO no reason to flash to build 18.

[Nook Color Android Development] timekeeper:
How the heck do you pair it exactly? I keep trying with both apps, Wii Controller and Wiimote, but it always asks me to enter a PIN, to which 0000 does not work.

Use Wiimote controller, select wiicontrollerime, select Wiimote, select initiate and connect, hold down buttons one and two to connect.
[Nook Color Android Development] Pyrot1c:
thanks :)

but now im having another problem :/ wiimote app detects my wiimote and polls buttons successfully, but as soon as i go to an emulator, the emulator wont detect my wiimote in game..

I have selected wiimote ime already and was able to set my keymappings fine, but once i start emulation, the wiimote is no longer detected :/
[Nook Color Android Development] KDOG2020:
From what I understand, YouTube doesn't work on it and DSP is really choppy. However, I have the OC kernel that works for both Froyo and CM7. Would that help?

Its not a mission critical device LOL but I have it working good now under froyo and am wondering if I should. I go to work tonite so I have all nite to think about it. I am probably going to try it though....
[Nook Color Android Development] timekeeper:
When I try those steps, a Bluetooth Pairing Request pops up, asking for the pin to pair with "Nintendo RVL-CNT-01", and leaving it blank is not an option as OK is greyed out. Entering 0000 or 1234 makes it fail to connect.
[Nook Color Android Development] KDOG2020:
Well I couldn't resist.... but it seems to be stuck on the N screen with the flashing "color". Is that normal for first time?

Its been a long while. Yikes I guess I finally managed to brick it. I should've left it alone. I'll check back in the morning.
[Nook Color Android Development] Pyrot1c:
well i just got it working ( i forgot to enable bluetooth devices in emulator settings. )

as for the pin thing. you need to use the wiimote app to pair, not go through bluetooth settings.
[Nook Color Android Development] RoboRay:
The lack of DSP is not a bug or stability issue... It is a feature not yet implemented.

And YouTube? Seriously? Why do you even need an app for that? Just go to their website.
[Nook Color Android Development] RoboRay:
it's not bricked. What process have you followed to install it?

Is the battery status meter in settings working properly? Mine reports 67% used on "Cell standby"
[Nook Color Android Development] Adam_v1:

I had the same problem at first, I ended up just having to back up my apps, do a full wipe and reflash. That fixed everything.

Website is way choppy for me even using oc. Dsp is a must to get cm7 worthwhile over froyo.
[Nook Color Android Development] nlancaster:
So I picked up a nook color today.

Tried:

Nookie Froyo, Honeycomb V4 SDcard, and CM7

CM7 seems to work the best but with a few issues/annoyances.

1. no internal storage, so I have too use my uSD card in order to install almost anything.

2. No youtube, I understand DSP not working yet, but even the website is choppy.

So I have spent hours today trying to figure it out.

1. Can we mount \emmc as \sdcard? That would solve the issue of having to have an SD card.

2. I am running dalingrin's OC kernel at 1100mhz and it doenst seem to help at all for youtube.com

anyhelp would be appriciated.
[Nook Color Android Development] j4mm3r:
1. Internal storage is there. At least with the default kernel and AFAIK, dalingrin updated his OC kernels to include that support as well.

2. Yeah youtube and others dont work because the DSP isnt fully implemented yet.
[Nook Color Android Development] nlancaster:
I am running dalingrins latest kernel, and internal storage only shows .92gb and alot of apps say "sd card required" when you try to install them.

Where can I grab the default kernel? just reflash the last nightly?
