Slow scrolling in some menus is caused by a CM7 theme engine bug with tablet resolutions. Does not affect important things like the browser, etc.
[Nook Color Android Development] claudius753:
I thought there were issues with SetCPU and CM7 where it would cause a process to max out the CPU. Has that changed, or are we still supposed to use the CM7 built in settings to change speeds?
[Nook Color Android Development] faceman66:
The issue is with SetCPU's profiles. You can use the app, just don't enable Profiles yet.

UPDATE:

I have been testing the use of profiles with every nightly and oc kernel from Dalingrin and as of right now, it appears that nightly 11 and the 022511 dated oc kernel for cm7 are working just fine with profiles enabled... will be testing some more.

FYI: (My nightly 11 upgrade process)

-updated to CWR v3.0.0.9 via ROM Manager; powered off; powered on; using ROM Manager - Reboot into Recovery

-working CWR v3.0.0.9; created nand backup of nightly 8; reboot

-downloaded nightly 11; copied to SD card via Samba (i love that app)

-using ROM Manager - Reboot into Recovery

-wiped cache and dalvik; manual reboot since CWR still locks after wiping dalvik sometimes

-using ROM Manager - Reboot into Recovery

-installed nightly 11 zip; installed dalingrin's cm7 oc kernel 022511; reboot

-using Root Explorer edited build.prop lcd density to 161 (169.33333 makes my clock widget look wonky); reboot

-used Dalingrins workaround for market (uninstall updates; no data or cache to wipe; deleted data for Google Services Framework) via 'Manage Apps' in settings; reboot

Market works, updated all apps. Rebooted (cause they always showed the first time anyway for me, it was all subsequent tries that broke) and My Apps still showing.

Proceeded to testing SetCPU w/ profiles and all is well so far. Monitoring my CPU the entire time I wrote this post and it hasn't moved past 2%, generally sitting between 0%-1%. That's what I call idle. :)

Edit: SetCPU profiles still don't work. Once the cpu was stressed via an app, it stayed pegged. Oh well.

Does anyone have issues getting the SD card to mount ? I downloaded easeus partition manager and formatted it to ext3, and it still won't mount the SD card. I already made the mistake of hitting format SD card from within (which led to a formatted boot partition). Am I doing something wrong? It would be really nice to load up some wallpapers and be able to store stuff to an SD card.

VERY easy fix

1. Settings > CWM > Performance

2. Acknowledge the warning message

3. >CPU settings

4. set max speed

5 CHECK "SET ON BOOT"

Your selected settings will survive reboot - no need to use SetCPU.

#12 is up...
[Nook Color Android Development] tominabox1:
Have had several random soft reboots since flashing. Usually after launching an app. I also had status bar fc on me once.

Just had the thing shut off completely - haven't ever seen that happen before. Going back to 11 after work.
[Nook Color Android Development] buffalosolja42:
nightly build 12

You have to do a restart first up to get the Wifi and screen to work correctly (I just flashed over nightly11 no clearing of cache) and you still need to change density of screen to 161. Works well haven't had any fc as of yet.

One of my apps doesn't like the 161 screen density, so I am flashing back one by one to see which fixes that maybe going back to V7 or V5 but this new build works well besides that.
[Nook Color Android Development] jerrygon:
Which App?
[Nook Color Android Development] buffalosolja42:
My weight watchers diary lol, but its not sizing right in v11 either and for some reason I can't uninstall!!! I maybe wrong let me take that back seems as if the app updated and does some funky things when changing dates like random scrolling..., but I still can't uninstall.
[Nook Color Android Development] Snyperx:

it continues to turn off and then turn on the device

I try this on Ipad and HTC Disire and did not see that.
[Nook Color Android Development] boxcar8028:
a bit off topic but kind if funny. whenever i take my nook to lunch with me ill set it up next to my big bowl of steaming hot noodles and the steam would blow on the screen and man you should see the nook freak out. but as soon as i pull the bowl back a little all will return back to normal^^^
[Nook Color Android Development] Ronin3178:
I tried breathing on my screen as fx-man suggested, nothing happened. Then again I have a Zagit screen protector on. I haven't noticed any problems with the protector on either.
[Nook Color Android Development] xdp:
Is anyone using any ROMs other than CM7 on their Nook? I can't stand the power down issue any more. I would say >75% of the time when I return to the Nook after several hours it has turned itself off, and half the time the battery is dead. This is a nightly from a week or two ago. I'm open to trying anything else that's stable and doesn't have such issues.

ICS source can't come soon enough.
[Nook Color Android Development] dalingrin:
A workaround in the meantime is to turn wifi off before putting the Nook to sleep.
[Nook Color Android Development] Sincitybronze:
Good to know. Is this a new development (the device shutting off)? I've been experiencing this over the last few days and it wasn't an issue before.
[Nook Color Android Development] olm3ca:
I use green power, an app that forces wifi to shut off when I'm not using it and checks for email every 15 mins. It has not only stopped battery drain and SOD but helps make the battery last for days with normal use. Give it a try...

mount windows share on CM7: possible?

Hello,

I am a new user: CM7 / on SD / nightly 177.

I am trying to find a way to mount (not only access) a windows share on CM7.

I tried with cifsmanager with no luck (error message: mount not found)

I searched around but could not find a clear status.

Thanks for your feedback

Sabamimi
[Nook Color Android Development] SCWells72:
In my experience, CM7 with a .32 kernel simply isn't stable. I've tried so many times and so many ways to run it but always experience lockups or SoDs. I know it doesn't happen to everyone, but it does sound like I'm not alone in the experience.

CM7 7.0.3/Phiremod 6.3 is perfectly stable for me aside from lack of deep sleep and flaky Bluetooth. Battery life is still quite good and I've never had a single lockup.

I also recently switched to MIUI which does use a .32 kernel, and as long as I don't use Nook Color Tweaks, it seems stable as well. For whatever reason, using Tweaks even without changing the clock speeds or anything else causes it to experience SoD intermittently. I've tried recent CM7 builds without Tweaks but still experience issues, so as far as I can tell it's something with a combination of a .32 kernel, CM7, and Tweaks...

Anyway, assuming you like CM7, I recommend flashing 7.0.3.

UPDATE: Looks like I spoke too soon. I just had my first SoD on MIUI even without Nook Color Tweaks. I guess my particular Nook just doesn't agree with the .32 kernel...
[Nook Color Android Development] painter_:
Have you tried a full wipe /system /data /cache etc... I am running nightly #175, flashed on 8/29 I have not rebooted, no SOD, no anything. I think I have charged the Nook 4 times in the last two weeks. the .32 kernel is perfectly stable for me. are you running off the SD or the internal memory? I am on the internal memory.
[Nook Color Android Development] SCWells72:
Yeah, I've done full wipes and it's started locking up even before I restore apps with titanium backup. I know others have zero issues, but I also know some have the exact issues I have, so think is just variation in the hardware.

By the way, you said .35 kernel. Has it been updated recently from .32 or was that a typo?
[Nook Color Android Development] painter_:
By fingers were faster then my brain.
[Nook Color Android Development] koopakid08:
Set up 2 profiles in tasker. One for wifi off when screen off and one for wifi on when screen on. No SOD since.
[Nook Color Android Development] newellj79:
The app that cost $6.49?
[Nook Color Android Development] khaytsus:
Tasker does a hell of a lot more than turn off wifi. If you want to JUST turn off wifi, there's several in the market for it, Setting Profile Lite, also I recently heard of something called Green Power which can do this as well.
[Nook Color Android Development] koopakid08:
Yes and it is very much worth it.
[Nook Color Android Development] caballar:
Found an index of backlogged CM7 zip files for anyone who may want to revert to an older build after problems with the latest nightly.

169 seems very stable for me.

http://koush.kanged.net/cm/nightly/encore/
[Nook Color Android Development] jameshmiller:
Green power will do the same thing, turn off wifi at screen off, and is free.
[Nook Color Android Development] koopakid08:
I still got SOD with green powder due to the fact that it will turn on wifi every 15 minutes or so to check for email.
[Nook Color Android Development] wpbear:
I have problems (no deep sleep) with the latest N177 but N174 works great!
[Nook Color Android Development] 1seven:
I flashed CM7 nightly 177 yesterday, and was unable to install Youtube--the market had a yellow bar across the top that said it was incompatible with my device.

Anybody else run into this? Thread search didn't turn it up.

I had 7.1 RC1 on here for a long time prior to messing with this thing yesterday, and am currently toying with MIUI (which plays nice with YouTube). Haven't tried any other nightlies yet, but will do so later, but was curious if there was a known incompatibility or something.
[Nook Color Android Development] newellj79:
Is your LCD density set to 160 in build.prop?
[Nook Color Android Development] jeremyshaw:
This + clear market app data and full reboot has solved this for all stock gapps for me :)
[Nook Color Android Development] xdp:
Thanks so much for this! It seems like that did the trick. I'm not even turning it off manually or using Tasker or anything else more complicated - I simply set the WiFi sleep policy to "When screen turns off" in advanced WiFi settings. I had previously set it to Never so that I wouldn't have to wait for the WiFi to reconnect when turning the screen on. After changing that, it hasn't turned off yet and overnight it only lost 2% battery. A nice, simple fix that I'm definitely willing to live with.

Anyone use V6 SuperCharger on the Nook with CM7. If so, what were your results? Here's a link.

I've been using it for awhile. Works great, i love the quick app switching.
[Nook Color Android Development] 1seven:
I'm not certain--is 160 the desired #, or the one that would cause the problem? (experimenting with MIUI right now, will check as soon as I nandroid back to CM7.)

Guess that's my answer... so I need to be sure it's set to 160 to avoid Gapps problems?
[Nook Color Android Development] jameshmiller:
Just ran the script. 1st 15 minutes after reboot is quite impressive. I love the no redraw from app to app and launcher. Nice. A thanks for you sir is do.
[Nook Color Android Development] jameshmiller:
I've got mine set to 1hr. Have not had an SOD since I started using it, and that's been quite some time. I used to get SOD's often. Good luck to you whatever app you choose.
[Nook Color Android Development] harpo1:
What settings are you using? I went with normal scrolling and balanced 3 settings.
[Nook Color Android Development] joenathane:
The description is written like something off an infomercial, makes my BS-meter start to go off. Looks like all it does is adjust memory management, which can be very beneficial under certain circumstances.
[Nook Color Android Development] stir fry a lot:
Seems to have solved my instability issues so far. At 1.2Ghz it would randomly freeze during use whether undervolted or overvolted. I always thought the freezes were more due to a memory management issue rather than a speed/voltage one and its looking as though my suspicions were correct. I applied the script about an hour ago and have been running at 1.3Ghz without a hiccup so far. I do agree that the description is rather atrocious though haha.

Just opened my gallery to view some pics and there is zero rendering wait as well. I'm lovin' it!

I'm running 0 scrolling and Balanced 3 settings.
[Nook Color Android Development] harpo1:
He just released his next beta with more options. Give it a try. What do you mean 0 scrolling? I didn't see that option.
[Nook Color Android Development] stir fry a lot:
Run the script again, there's a 0 option and its FAST.
[Nook Color Android Development] taylor.fowler:
It makes a pretty significant increase in performance on my Samsung captivate. Eager to try it on the Nook. Will report back after.
[Nook Color Android Development] harpo1:
I'm not seeing a 0 option. I see three options for scrolling. 1 fast, 2 normal and 3 slow. I use 1.
[Nook Color Android Development] :
Well, I installed it on the G1 (yeah, still have that) with the bulletproof launcher setting. The free memory has gone way up, and it is much more responsive.

Seeing that, I tossed it on ye olde nook. I've only selected the multitasking option, but it has helped a little. I'll try some other settings and see how it goes.

Hasn't hurt either device, and it does adjust the memory table, so that's nice. Wish there was more detail on each setting (anyone know of a link)?
[Nook Color Android Development] jgaf:
There's no 0 option listed but you can type it in and it will work.
[Nook Color Android Development] :
There is a 0 option for the latest (version 8?) script, using V6SuperCharger. IDK about V8.

Selling device but want to leave CM7 and Froyo on there

I have a Nook color

Flashed it to run CM7 and Froyo

Working perfectly

I'm looking to sell the device but remove any traces of my account and any personal details on there but still leave CM7 and Froyo on there

Not sure what the best way to do that is and how to do it ?

i.e flash back to stock then reinstall CM7 and froyo or something else

Essentially I don't want any personal details left on the device (e.g name, gmail, outlook etc) but I want to leave rooted froyo and any apps on there

You all realize you're discussing the speed at which this script scrolls, right?
[Nook Color Android Development] :
It'd be helpful if you replied so we know what you're talking about.

Yes, the first question is with regards to scrolling speed (assuming latest script).

No, the second question is the actual memory changes.
[Nook Color Android Development] koopakid08:
He asked me what settings i used not how fast the script scrolled.

How did you get around or fix the busybox errors?

I tried to run it (update9beta4) in Script Manager, but I get AWK errors... :(
[Nook Color Android Development] koopakid08:
You need to use an older version of busybox. Download busybox installer from the market. I used version 1.16.2
[Nook Color Android Development] bigbob23:
There is a busybox change coming in the next nightly (whenever that happens).

I've been using the free app Wifi Keep Alive for a week now. Set it to "wifi off on sleep" and I haven't had a single SOD. Seems to have solved my problems. Just thought I'd share...
[Nook Color Android Development] JeremyNT:
Hmm. So, becoming anxious for a new nightly, I built from source using a workaround posted elsewhere. The build process went fine - however, once I flashed it, the CM skateboarding android boot logo was a sort of yellow-green color, and animated really slowly. It's been like that for a long time now and doesn't seem to want to finish booting.

Is anybody having luck with building from source? Can you point me to how you got it working properly?
[Nook Color Android Development] nismopc:
Same here. The nightly's were so common it was almost 2nd nature for me to just root every night. Haven't seen any udpates since 8/31 nightly.

Anyone know if CM7 coming up to another final release or if they slowed down dev efforts...
[Nook Color Android Development] timmyjoe42:
The nightlys have stopped due to the security breach of the linux kernel on the main linux developement servers or something. It's been all over the geek based web news. I guess it happened at the end of August and they are working to determine damages and setting up new servers and security.
[Nook Color Android Development] JeremyNT:
To reply to myself, I think it was user error - I'd failed to execute the shell script: ./extract-files.sh

I tried the build again after doing so, and it seems like everything's fine.

Well, that ain't good. :eek: I must have overlooked it.

I've been quite busy with school and Touchpad development. Can someone give me the lastest of whats happening with the Market?

I'm going to change the LCD density to 160 to get greater app access since the market is borked. I know this will eventually kill "My apps."

Any objections?
[Nook Color Android Development] SCWells72:
I uninstalled the market updates to go back to the previous version, then I went into Titanium Backup and froze Market Updater to prevent it from auto-updating again. The older market seems to work much better in terms of accessing apps. Didn't have to change my LCD density with the old market either...
[Nook Color Android Development] timmyjoe42:
I edited mine to 160 and have had zero problems since.
[Nook Color Android Development] bigbob23:
The new market works quite fine with 160. When "My Apps" shows up as empty, wiping market data will restore it.

I often find that I cannot connect to the market but if I try again later it works (this happened with the old market also). Is the server a bit flakey?

Dal-- Joenathane and I have been experiencing a fully-working market (without needing to clear market data) for multiple days now. Using market 3.1.3 and 160 dpi. I don't know what Joe did particularly, but I noticed this after flashing the 0823 gapps version on Thursday. So I can't tell for sure whether it was gapps or server-side fix. Would like for others to try staying at 160 without clearing data to see if the apps list sticks like it should.
[Nook Color Android Development] descriminator:
Ok.. So i wiped cache on market after setting 160 - works.. go figure.

any ideas if thats on a fix list somewhere? 160 looks blurrier imho ....

Thanks guys!
[Nook Color Android Development] zequav:
I always set dpi to 160 before flashing. Clearing market data once every 3-4 days is better than not being able to install many apps.
[Nook Color Android Development] descriminator:
So here is the question then.. Market is not going to go into app killing frenzy when it auto-updates to remove what it deems 'incompatible' again, would it?

thanks!
[Nook Color Android Development] khaytsus:
No, it simply will not let you update them.
