Its a CM7 build. I'm not putting out a separate 2.6.32 kernel for that reason.

Could someone write a step by step for people not knowing all the stuff?

Installed and looking real good!

Many, many thanks

Forgot to fix a sleep bug:

You need to disable sleep when connected to usb. Goto Settings->Applications->Development->Stay Awake

Seems good. SD card mounting works again.

Still no "My Apps" in market with 160 dpi, though =/. Oh well. I'll continue to use AppBrain.

Waiting impatiently for 1.3GHz/interactive :)

(edit) Ugh, spoke too soon: the bug with beautiful widgets causing a hang at boot that I reported some time ago is still present.

(edit2) I thought the problem with BW hanging the system might be due to the sdcard, so I tried with the default theme and beautiful widgets didn't crash the system. Then I copied the beautiful widgets folder in the sdcard to another location, removed the old folder and copied the new folder to the old location, and I can boot normally even with themed BW. So it was probably caused by a faulty sdcard sector. I don't know why it only happens with 2.6.32 (different FS options?) but anyway, it's solved :). Sorry for the noise.
[Nook Color Android Development] legolee:
Great. I am running the latest .32 beta. It works great and setcpu profiles also works.

But VPN does not work. when connecting via PPTP or L2TP, the whole system freezes and needs a manual reboot.
[Nook Color Android Development] GMKcz:
found minor bug:

When changes brightness level, on/off animation stop working.

I think its caused by brightness level but cant be sure.

EDIT:

2nd bug: SOLVED

Charging don't stop even when 100% is reached (n on cable still glows with orange - not green)

I made battery calibration that hadn't helped.
[Nook Color Android Development] fabienk:
my battery is 100% charged and the cable-light is green ( and i'm not sure that light is software controlled )

Is everybody able to download from the link provided by dalingrin on page 1? I have tried 4 times now and the download stops midway. Also, the download speed is very slow.

Anybody else facing these problems?

(Of course, I can download from CM at great speeds)
[Nook Color Android Development] newellj79:
I'm so excited to try this, but reluctant. I use my nook daily, and often, for many things. I'd really like to hold off untill a oc update is available, but the flashaholic in me might not let me. Please keep posting results from testing so we can keep up to date with the latest. Thanks everyone.
[Nook Color Android Development] GMKcz:
Solved, charged for another 40mins and finally glows green.

Got gift for you :) http://www.multiupload.com/YJCQN563DC
[Nook Color Android Development] furius:
Why should this happen? Can I flash this the same way I flash nightly builds? Or some different procedure is required? What I need to wipe, coming from CM7.0.2?

Thanks!
[Nook Color Android Development] derekr:
My only problem is that 4 apps are no longer working - Aldiko reader and 3 versions of Angry Birds. I've had exactly the same problem when upgrading in the past, it seems that these store data in .android-secure on the SD card, and this gets wiped sometimes.
[Nook Color Android Development] madguy2006:
Oh, thanks GMKcz. Appreciate your gift. Cheers!
[Nook Color Android Development] MedLine:
flashed 7.1.0-RC0-encore-2.6.3.2 over existing CM7, clearing cache.

upon reboot no sleep, turns out because android.process.media ran rampant. unmounted sdcard, android.process.media stopped, mounted sdcard, android.process.media went crazy again. checked logs to confirm that the ~20,000 thumbnails cached by QuickPic (i've got large gallery) was problem:

I/Memory ( 1828): Received storage state changed notification that /mnt/sdcard changed state from checking to mounted
I/StorageNotification( 1123): Media {/mnt/sdcard} state changed from {checking} -> {mounted}
I/ActivityManager( 1059): Start proc android.process.media for broadcast.com.android.providers.media/.MediaScannerReceiver

thought about adding .nomedia to /mnt/sdcard/DCIM where QuickPic caches, instead went into terminal and issued following:

su
pm disable com.android.providers.media/com.android.providers.media.MediaScannerReceiver

left wifi on, looked in /proc/wakelocks to make sure AudioLockOut wakelock acquired ;), then went into standby, drove to work, woke up and hour later. no SOD :). looked at time_in_state, saw that the numbers jived with CPU Spy report, and took screenshot:

indeed, CM7 finally sleeps on Nook ... peacefully.
[Nook Color Android Development] MedLine:
Congratulations CM7

Seems like it was another time, or at least a different forum, nearly 3 months ago right before the release of the first Nook CM7 nightly, that dalingrin opined:

It's been a long and, at times, arguably torturous road.

Congratulations, and thanks.
[Nook Color Android Development] burbank:
I'm a little slow. Can someone clarify this. I'm pretty sure it doesn't mean we can OC using Dal's existing OC kernels as that would defeat the purpose. Right?
[Nook Color Android Development] khaytsus:
I had to run fix_permissions and power down with no Wifi or Bluetooth on, boot up, then turn on Wifi for Wifi to work.. Never had that happen before, but hopefully it's a one-time event. :)

Otherwise so far so good.. Wakelock % is dropping, which is good! Used to seeing it at 99.9% (since bootup) and it's at 80% since I've been messing with it a lot.

No tun.ko module. :( Is there a reason?

So far bluetooth behaves the same as far as I can tell.. 4-6" max. I glanced at the bts files but not quite sure what to make of it and running out of time to play around this morning so I'll look at those more later.

Thanks Dal :)
[Nook Color Android Development] khaytsus:
No, they were talking complete nonsense. This is a standalone ROM.
[Nook Color Android Development] MedLine:
look in config file. tun/tap, cifs, utf8, iptables ... all enabled in kernel with 2.6.32-RC0 test build. tun/tap driver created at dev/net/tun when called on.

Cisco IPSec VPN works for me using get-a-robot VPNC. check your settings, or your busybox.
[Nook Color Android Development] pbcal:
I have installed the 2.6.32 beta over 7.0.3 and lost the Aldiko app. Tried to reinstall from market and it still fails. May be some issue with SD card install.

If my NC can sleep better I can live without Aldiko. There is FBreader that still works.:p
[Nook Color Android Development] derekr:
Bluetooth seems to be about the same. My Globalsat BT338 GPS gets about 3 feet range, and needs to be started after a reboot.
[Nook Color Android Development] celyst:
I am currently using phiremod 6.2. How can I update to this without losing all my user data? Can I just format system only in CWM, before flashing this?
[Nook Color Android Development] :
Give it a shot. If it doesn't work, no biggie. Just factory restore it.
[Nook Color Android Development] madguy2006:
I believe Aldiko should work. In fact I am sure it will work. Did you make a clean install?
[Nook Color Android Development] ali3n69:
I also have the weird problem with 2.6.32 beta that 10 of my installed games/apps wont run and now have greyed out icons with sd on them in manage applications menu and refuse to reinstall thru market, they also show as only taking up only 4-50k of space. under sdcard tab they have checkmarks already on them as well. I have flashed nightlys and been thru numerous kernel installs this is the first time ive seen anything like this. short of full wipe is there a known solution? is this a filesystem change issue?
[Nook Color Android Development] :
So, some initial thoughts.

Wifi seemed snappier. Also didn't have any connection issues.

Slower w/o OC'd kernel (obviously). I would use it as my DD, but some of my larger PDF textbooks need the OC kernel to run well.

USB mounting was fine.

Sleep worked.

Didn't test BT.

youtube video was choppy. Played the "HQ" tron trailer, had some shutters. Maybe a buffer issue?

Furthmore, after closing and FC'ing the youtube app, the whole OS seemed slower. Reboot fixed, but geez. Even at 925 MHz...something with the overlay?

NOTE: To avoid things not working, YOU NEED to wipe system/data/cache/dalvik. You don't want .29 clogging up .32 stuff, now do you?

But, back to nightlies for me...for a while (or until I'm done w/school this term :P)
[Nook Color Android Development] pbcal:
Not a clean install. Did on top of 7.0.3. Many other posts are reporting about the problem with apps on sdcard.

EDIT: Tried to uninstall through Manage Application and then installed from Market. Failed with message "Couldn't install on USB storage or SD card."
[Nook Color Android Development] Divine_Madcat:
This kernel is really impressive, but i will mirror others in that we still need the 1300 clock speeds. Combine the high speeds with this kernel, and i think you REALLY have a winner. Any time frame to get the overclocks back?
[Nook Color Android Development] ali3n69:
I am seeing the same, mine also wasnt a clean install did on top of n64, going to just jump back to nightly for now...
[Nook Color Android Development] :
First rule of CM... ;)
[Nook Color Android Development] nukeruss:
Questions on install

What is the best method for installing this if you currently have 7.0.3 installed? How would one do a complete wipe of the nook? Can I install using cwm or do I need to make a seperate boot sd? I've flashed many things in the past including dual boot. I've never thought about wiping off the old OS before though.
[Nook Color Android Development] hockeyfamily737:
Interesting issue I had & resolved already. Was on nightly 63 with 47% battery. I wiped system, data, cache, & dalvik then flashed. After install & during reboot it shut down completely & wouldn't come back at all. It wouldn't even try to come back with the charger plugged in. Left it (unplugged) for a couple hours and it booted right up & showing 33% battery.

sent from my Ginger-Hero CDMA
[Nook Color Android Development] khaytsus:
Weird! OpenVPN connects and disconnects constantly. Last time this happened I think it was because it couldn't find tun, I'll have to look in the logs closer.

EDIT: I dunno what's different, maybe something weird on my server end, but I kept seeing in the logs warnings about MULTI connections and disconnecting, so I enabled multiple connections in openvpn on the server side and it works now.. Weird.

Must be nice.. I get 6" or so out of my Holux 236 and my Columbus V900.
[Nook Color Android Development] madguy2006:
You CANNOT flash this on an existing 7.0.3 or 7.0.2

Make a clean install. Kindly read post 1261. The guy put in all the work and took time to write a detailed post to help us :)
[Nook Color Android Development] xawen:
Actually, what Dal meant was that you can't just drop the .32 kernel alone into an existing system. So you have to use his full image, not the teamdouche nightlies.

The full image he provided should install over what you have in place just like any other nightly.
[Nook Color Android Development] Divine_Madcat:
Ah, but i am not asking about CM... :P

Indeed; this installs just fine over 7.0.2; aside from the .android_secure problem (which is what i and others have, and is the apps missing).
[Nook Color Android Development] bekyndnunwind:
Can you tell if it is faster than the .29 kernel (w/ no OC) ?
[Nook Color Android Development] Divine_Madcat:
Are there people that actually use the .29 stock kernel??! I sort of thought that was just there so CM could boot up, and then everyone would get the best kernels from here.....
[Nook Color Android Development] bekyndnunwind:
I don't use it, but I would like to know if the .32 base kernel (without overclock) is faster than the .29 base kernel (without overclock)...

Does that make sense?
[Nook Color Android Development] ali3n69:
just did this for the fun of it for anyone curious just flashed (n68, 4/24 oc kernel, wiped cache) over this beta to fix apps not reinstalling sdcard problem and they reinstalled just fine right away
[Nook Color Android Development] pbcal:
So you are saying the apps on sdcard are working after you flashed n68. Thats normal since n68 does not have the problem with apps on sd.
[Nook Color Android Development] pavlos46:
Hi all

Did a clean up and loaded the new kernel and now have SD card issues.

Can't any more move apps to SD or load any apps that try to access the SD card like angry birds.

Checked my CM settings and the option to move to SD was off, turned it on but no dice.

Any ideas?

Pavlos
[Nook Color Android Development] ali3n69:
Just kindly letting people know that its a easy flash away back to n68 it seems without a clean install from beta install if they need any of those apps for daily use again.
[Nook Color Android Development] derekr:
Re my loss of apps (Alkido, 3 Angry Birds) - I tried to reinstall from Titanium Backup and it failed, whereas it has always worked before. I did a wipe of cache and Dalvik cache and ran Fix Permissions without luck. I also cannot reinstall from the Market.

Sooo - I took a look at the permissions set on .android_secure in /sdcard (where all these apps had data) and found it is 000. I tied to change the permissions (via chmod as su) but whatever I try I get that the filesystem is readonly. I can change permissions on other directories. Do you think I could be on the right track here?

(At 68 years old my Linux is getting a little rusty :-) I envy you young bucks taking finals right now - I am a prof with 100 finals to grade!)
[Nook Color Android Development] greenleaves:
Just installed .32 over n68, so far so good. Wifi, BT and the rest of applications were running fine, max CPU set at 925 Mhz. No FC issue whatsoever.

I wiped cache and davlvik-cache. I also cleared all caches under Gallery and QuickPic which I believe resolve my previous FC issue before installing .32.

BT turned on without a need of reboot, however, the distance was about 2-3 ft. More testing ...

Many thanks for the great work!
[Nook Color Android Development] Narfx:
Nah, .android_secure is always 000, AFAIK.

Still getting lockups at startup, again related to beautiful widgets and (probably) the sdcard =/. Flashing back the latest nightly + OC kernel.
[Nook Color Android Development] Thirtybird:
Just got this installed over 7.0.2 on a verygreen powered uSD card. I didn't have any apps loaded except quadrant.

Quadrant score running @925 is right around 1700 which is what 7.0.2 was getting at the same clock speed.

Market works fine, and the official ebay app showed up for the first time! Download and install from market works without a hitch.

What I do notice is that so far, I'm not seeing wifi get flaky on our work AP's (multiple AP's with the same SSID on the same channel at different distances/powers)

I will run this unless I hit a wall that neccessitates I go back to my production card :)

gracias dalingrin! Will be on the lookout for anything out of the ordinary.
[Nook Color Android Development] ali3n69:
Other then the apps on sdcard issue it seems a solid release. No FCs, Wifi was indeed snappier.

I did notice youtube was choppy as ace7196 stated and after exiting youtube the whole system seemed to have slowed down.

Quadrant score running @925 was around 1700 as well here

Thanks for all your work Dal im looking forward to the next beta of .32
[Nook Color Android Development] mooja:
anyone able to get the GB screen on/off animations to work? i just loaded this on mine, and while it is sleeping(YAY!) i dont get the cool animation
[Nook Color Android Development] Divine_Madcat:
same. Not sure what i am doing wrong either. Not a biggy, but we are testing this all afterall. ;)
[Nook Color Android Development] yoopyoop:
Screen off animation is working for me, but not the screen on. I have them both checked on in the CM settings.
[Nook Color Android Development] :
I've found that using stock non-OC'd kernels...is slow :P

HOWEVER. I didn't notice as much difference between the .32 and .29 kernels as I did when I changed from a 3.4 base from a 3.3 base.

So to answer your question, kernels (non-OC'd) don't make a difference (to me). But who am I? :P
[Nook Color Android Development] mooja:
ah i got it madcat. settings>applications>development> make sure that stay awake is on

and yes to everyone i do realize that dal said this earlier, i just misread it

also, my only real beef(aside from lack of OC lol) is that any apps i had installed onto the sd wont load at all. aldiko for instance, after i flashed, it wouldnt load. i flashed back to n67, moved it to the internal storage, then flashed back to the .32 kernel, and it now works fine.
[Nook Color Android Development] Divine_Madcat:
Negatory good buddy. Just turned it on, still nadda. What is your brightness at?
[Nook Color Android Development] derekr:
My latest failure to restore missing apps: .android_secure is where apps are stored on a SD card in encrypted form. So, I wondered if it might be useful to delete the folder and let the system recreate it on reboot, then try Titanium Backup to restore the missing apps.

The answer is a resounding NO! The directory was recreated on booting but restores still failed.
[Nook Color Android Development] mooja:
hmm, now that its working, i cant get it to not work anymore >.>

my brightness is at ~50%
[Nook Color Android Development] legolee:
That was a clean install of RC0 .32 beta. PPTP & L2TP of the same server did work previously on .29 kernel (1.3Ghz OC one) with CM7 Stable.

Can you please also try PPTP and L2TP?

The problem is the whole system freezes. Even if my VPN server is faulty/incompatible, the system should not freezes. So there must be something wrong.

Thanks :)
[Nook Color Android Development] Backwardsblade:
I put animations and transitions back to normal and rechecked screen on/off boxes in cm settings.... looking pretty swanky now :)
[Nook Color Android Development] nukeruss:
Is there any way to change the permissions on android_secure? I checked my droid X using root explorer and permissions are set at read/write. with this kernal the permissions are locked down. Isn't this the same kernal as the B&N 1.2 update. They are having the same problem. It's a conspiracy against angry birds and bejeweled 2.
[Nook Color Android Development] Nburnes:
For Apps to SD, I don't know why you guys wouldn't have it checked so they install to internal memory. I mean it's there for a reason, why not use it?

[Nook Color Android Development] Calla969:
I am running the new beta and it seems great. Battery life is really improved and the Nook is sleeping!

One problem I just noticed is that iheartradio FCs and does not show up in the market. I downloaded it to my phone and copied the app over a while ago. It has been working great on all of the nightlies, but it seems unhappy with this version. tune in seems to work, but doesn't have the station that I'm looking for.

If anyone has any ideas, I'd appreciate some help, otherwise, I'll just keep enjoying the great battery life while not listening to iheartradio.

THANKS EVERYONE!!!!!!
[Nook Color Android Development] Thirtybird:
Thanks for pointing that out - it still fails installation though.

But as I run the whole kit-n-caboodle from SDCard, this setting is good to know about...
[Nook Color Android Development] dalingrin:
Thanks for the feedback.

I have a hunch about the SD card apps.

I'm surprised by people having stutter issues in the YouTube app. I have not seen this.
[Nook Color Android Development] :
Glad it wasn't just me. I'll reflash the beta build later and get some logs. Maybe try to figure out which videos cuase the issue, and how well movies play, etc. For anyone who wants to grab a log, I found the "aLogCat" application (free on market) to be quick and easy to use.
[Nook Color Android Development] dalingrin:
I just tested YouTube app again and I didn't have any stutter. I do still get stutter every once in a while on some videos on my SD card. This is fixed if you use the Conservative governor(just like 2.6.29)

For anyone who has apps on SD card issues, here is a kernel uImage to try. Only push this kernel if you are using the 2.6.32 beta build.
[Nook Color Android Development] :
Alright, I'll test it some more later. Maybe I'm crazy :P
[Nook Color Android Development] Calla969:
I'm getting stutter on the YouTube app too. I'll try reinstalling.

Edit: After watching 1 video on YouTube, my Nook became extremely slow. It would take about 15-20 seconds to respond to anything I did. The video I watched was pretty choppy. Not sure what's going on. I am using the conservative governor at 925mhz. I restarted and the lag is gone, but my widgets are gone now. Using ADW EX.
[Nook Color Android Development] Nburnes:
Newest kernel still has SD install issue, dal.

Edit: Well large app issue, as I don't install to SD.

Pushed the new uImage to boot partition and rebooted. Still have the SD card issue. Aldiko failed with same error message.

Trying to push the update uimage to test, just noticed i don't have a notification for usb debugging, triple checked that it is enabled, have tried un-checking it and re-checking it. fresh install of cm7 for .32
[Nook Color Android Development] iDidItAll4theNookie:
I'm no expert about kernels, but on rooted 1.2, you have to eject the SD to get some apps installed, and the Angry Birds series are on that list. Could there be something in the source code that expects Nook apps (those available through B&N) to be installed an odd way? Like I say, I'm no expert, but it seems like this is a reoccurring issue. If nothing else, its worth a try.
[Nook Color Android Development] Chahk:
Just had an SOD on the new test version :( NC was asleep for over 3 hours before I tried waking it.
[Nook Color Android Development] dalingrin:
Was it connected to USB or the charger?

Apps on SD card are fixed. New build coming in a few.
[Nook Color Android Development] nukeruss:
Can the fix be applied/modified for manual nooter on stock build?
[Nook Color Android Development] djlim4:
Anyone have any wifi connectivity issues?

The NC is sleeping finally but i noticed it won't connect to my work wifi, just keeps trying to connect and it disconnects if it gets a hold.

Flashed back to 7.0.2 and wifi is fine,

Flashing back to new test build to save on battery til i get home and figure this out
