I can't install the cm7 repository to compile (instructions per the guide) because kernel.org is down. Is there another way to do it? Thanks.
[Nook Color Android Development] harpo1:
Try this.

http://synrgi.wordpress.com/2011/09/07/android-repository-remedy/
[Nook Color Android Development] newellj79:
trying now. thanx.
[Nook Color Android Development] andyrubin1:
Tried Nook Screen Calibration, screen facing up or down.

Running CM7.

Max CPU speed 1.2GHz with ONDEMAND scheduler.

Anything else I can do to make the screen more sensitive? Using AluPen but still lots of broken lines.
[Nook Color Android Development] patruns:
Why would we want to spend $300 on a device that you are not going to develop dal? :rolleyes:
[Nook Color Android Development] newellj79:
I was going to get the 101 250gig 1.5ghz but it keeps getting pushed back. I sure wish he was going to dev for them.
[Nook Color Android Development] skwalas:
Nothing else you can do. Screen sensitivity is not good enough for more than coarse drawing.

Search is your friend. this has already been addressed with many other stylus types.
[Nook Color Android Development] dalingrin:
The 101 does look nice.

I think the Touchpad will satisfy my tablet cravings, especially when ICS is released.
[Nook Color Android Development] newellj79:
I check every day to see if there are n e more available. I'd sure like to be along for the ride to see what you can make do. it would also save my family and I cash probablly better spent else where. ill keep hoping....
[Nook Color Android Development] andyrubin1:
I did search, the last post seems to be 1-2 month back then, and I'm hoping some new development or driver may have come to improve the situation..
[Nook Color Android Development] patruns:
Not really....
[Nook Color Android Development] joej:
Sorry, I have set my default browser in CM7, is it possible to unset it? Thanks.
[Nook Color Android Development] newellj79:
yes. either install or uninstall a browser (this will prompt to pick a new default). or, grab one of the many apps from market for setting default browsers.
[Nook Color Android Development] Barleyman:
Or go into settings manage apps and reset default picks for the browser..
[Nook Color Android Development] wallsg:
Here ya go. Just $89.99. Per month.

[Nook Color Android Development] paleh0rse:
LOL!! That's just ridiculous...
[Nook Color Android Development] newellj79:
Dalingrin, for those of us who may not be lucky enough to get a touch pad will you be developing ICS for the NC?
[Nook Color Android Development] Colchiro:
He said before that he'll be developing ICS for the HP Touchpad, and possibly for the NC.
[Nook Color Android Development] newellj79:
thanks. missed that one.
[Nook Color Android Development] Colchiro:
That was in the Touchpad forum tho.
[Nook Color Android Development] psychoace:
I will buy 3. I just need to sell my car
[Nook Color Android Development] BitingChaos:
How old is that ad??!
[Nook Color Android Development] tsddave:
From what ive seen the HP touchpad cannot be worth having for much more than $99.Seems like many people are selling them off on ebay and the 3 people I know who bought one wish they hadnt.
[Nook Color Android Development] swaaye:
If they can be made to run CM7 or Android 4 eventually, that will change perhaps. I know I would not want to be stuck with WebOS simply because it is a dead end.

Free Thumb Keyboard in Amazon Market

Everyone should get the free thumb keyboard today. Works great on the NC.

http://www.amazon.com/mobile-apps/b/ref=sa_menu_adr_app4?ie=UTF8&node=2350149011
[Nook Color Android Development] koopakid08:
Yep, best keyboard I've found.

---------------------------------

If this post helped you don't forget to say thanks!
[Nook Color Android Development] gadzooks64:
Agreed. Don't believe it when it says it isn't compatible with your device.

I'm a Swype fan but it was just rendering so huge on the nook. I'm liking this Thumb Keyboard. I will try it out on my ASUS Transformer that is arriving tomorrow too.
[Nook Color Android Development] ponyboy82:
I got it and tried it on the NC last night. It really is nice! I could have sworn I tried a lite version before and didn't like it. I have been using the Hacker Keyboard before and really missed the text prediction, plus you had to stretch your thumbs quite a bit for the middle letters.
[Nook Color Android Development] talz13:
I just flashed my NC this morning... I have a blue dot one, so I flashed the zip to repartition to 1g/5g, followed the required reboots, installed cm7 nightly 209 and gapps... Now I was about to load some stuff up on it from my desktop, but both drives that mounted from the nook keep saying "Please insert a disk into drive X:.".

I am not seeing the normal "press this to enable USB storage" on the menu bar like on my EVO running cm7.

Any clue why the storage is not mounting, or prompting me to mount it?
[Nook Color Android Development] leapinlar:
Nightly 209? For the nook color? The latest is 207. Are you sure you flashed the right version. Or maybe you are just confused with the version for your EVO.
[Nook Color Android Development] jgaf:
Nightly 209 is not showing through rom manager, but if you go to cm7 website you can download it from there
[Nook Color Android Development] talz13:
Yeah, I got it from the website since I didn't have rom manager available to me at the time:

cm_encore_full-209.zip
[Nook Color Android Development] koopakid08:
Do you have USB debugging enabled?

I would say just use dropbox. Then you don't have to deal with cords.

[Nook Color Android Development] SCrid2000:
210 is up now, no sign of it in rom manager either. I'm downloading it from http://download.cyanogenmod.com/?device=encore&type=nightly. What's up with rom manager?
[Nook Color Android Development] miniaturepeddler:
Yeah, its rather strange, the rom manager does not list any C7 rom update since 9/30/11 for the nook nor my HTC Evo.

I'm not sure if this is a Rom manager bug or simply a disconnect.

If you goto the C7 download pages directly (or any of the mirrors) via a browser you can see that C7 has been updated for the nook (and other android platforms) several times this month already.

[Nook Color Android Development] TheValk:
I'm not able to download anything from the Market on any of the even slightly newish nightlies.

Any tips?
[Nook Color Android Development] nukeruss:
You may have to re-install Gapps. If you have been updating using Rom Manager, I've had it break the market a few times on both my NC and Droid X. If you download the Nightly and then manually update in recovery then everything works fine when your done.
[Nook Color Android Development] swaaye:
I don't even use ROM Manager. I always download the nightly and the gapps and boot to recovery and install both at the same time. I usually format /system just to be sure. I don't know if that's part of the install process by default and want to make sure any tweaks I've done and forgotten about get wiped out.
[Nook Color Android Development] boxcar8028:
just flashed n210 so far so good. super smooooth.
[Nook Color Android Development] tsddave:
Sounds like alot of work to me!

I just wipe the dalvik cache and install. I have several Android devices and have never had an issue.
[Nook Color Android Development] TheValk:
I've tried that but will again just to be sure. I don't use ROM Manager for flashing either. I learned a couple of phones ago to use recovery and that's what I still do.

Thanks for the help.
[Nook Color Android Development] patruns:
That is actually 2 issues. First, the nightlies are not in the market. You can find them here: http://download.cyanogenmod.com/?device=encore

Do a search for "market fix" for the other issue or install a 200 or above nightly.
[Nook Color Android Development] leapinlar:
Formatting system is not necessary. It is part of the installation process built into the nightly.

A simplified description of the nightlie's install process is: backup existing gapps, format system, install new nightly on system, restore gapps, then some housekeeping things like fix permissions, etc. and finish.

So you can see you don't even need to reinstall gapps.
[Nook Color Android Development] bigbob23:
ROM Manager uses Clockwork Recovery to accomplish any upgrade actions.
[Nook Color Android Development] swaaye:
Thanks for detailing it. I've been wondering about how it installs for a long time.
[Nook Color Android Development] newellj79:
it appears that some of kernel.org is back up. still can't initialize cm7 repo though.
[Nook Color Android Development] TheValk:
Thanks for your willingness to help, but perhaps I'm not clear. This is 1 issue. Of course the nightlies are not in the Market, my issue is downloading anything FROM the market with a newer nightly. I have a few other ideas to try.

Again, thank you everyone for your help. I do enjoy the B&N community.:D
[Nook Color Android Development] Awats:
On any build over 200 I get "No Connection - Retry" on the Market. I can't figure it out. I can go back to 200 and it works. I've tried clearing the history. No Help. Weird. I will stay on 200 until I figure it out.

Edit: And after trying a bazillon times, 212 is working. Geez ...
[Nook Color Android Development] bigbob23:
I was getting this for the past several months. Usually if I waited a bit a retry would work. It's been working every time for several days now.
[Nook Color Android Development] topcaser:
Hi, I installed the update of gDocs (don't know the English name since iam in germany. It's the official google app) and this app gets a forced close at once at start.

Do you have the same problem? Is it 160 dpi which causes the problem?
[Nook Color Android Development] andyrubin1:
After upgrading from 197 to 210, the screen's sensitivity is MUUUUUUUUUUCH improved. :D:D:D:D:D:D:D:D:D:D:D:D

THANKS!
[Nook Color Android Development] tsddave:
Why go to 210 when there are better nightlys out there that are much newer?
[Nook Color Android Development] Thirtybird:
So he's like 2 nightlies behind... what would you say to me when I tell you I still run and love nightly 98? (not 198)
[Nook Color Android Development] boxcar8028:
you may want to flash a newer nightly. so mush has been improve since n98:) lol

oh, and you'll need this to.

https://market.android.com/details?id=com.dalingrin.nookcolortweaks&feature=search_result
[Nook Color Android Development] tsddave:
Well firstly its 5 nightlys behind and secondly there have been some big changes since N212 that make a huge difference.Thirdly...why the hell would anyone still be using N98!! You say you love it...you will simply want to marry the latest nightly builds then!

Get with the program please! Are you still wearing platform shoes also ?:P
[Nook Color Android Development] patruns:
Actually, it is 3, not 5. What's the deal man? What "big" changes are you referring to?

cm_encore_full-213.zip (Fri Oct 07 2011 07:25:11 GMT-0400 (Eastern Daylight Time))

Chill out friend! :)
[Nook Color Android Development] cincibluer6:
213 is nice and smooth for me. I had 176 and went to 210 and it seemed to slow up a bit. 213 seems decent and I have yet to have problems with Youtube HQ playback. Maybe I'm just running a real old version of Youtube.
[Nook Color Android Development] tsddave:
Im chilled to the core I can assure you! :P

Its actually five namely 213,215,216,217 and 218.

Heres a link:- http://download.cyanogenmod.com/?type=nightly&device=blade

The big changes are things like a new kernel and an advance is Android version.

The new version brought about changes as did the kernel. The one thing I like above all is the better battery life.

Chill out friend! :) heh
[Nook Color Android Development] skwalas:
dude, you're linking to a completely different device. NC is "encore", not "blade", and follows its own nightly numbering.
[Nook Color Android Development] tsddave:
Ops ya ok , I have a blade also and mixed the two.

But my other comments stand. Updates are well worth having in comparison to others because of the new upgrades previously stated.
[Nook Color Android Development] patruns:
I think we have beaten this horse enough tsdave. The Encore (NC) has not had those big changes that you refer to and not as many updates. There is little reason at the moment for someone who is already on 210 & happy to jump to the latest nightly? I am on 201 and have not found a reason yet. 98 worked for him and so did the market when he originally installed the ROM. Now it didn't and he moved up. Not everyone here updates every night when we don't have issues. ;)
[Nook Color Android Development] tsddave:
Ok dont listen, I really dont care!
[Nook Color Android Development] koopakid08:
Patruns speaks the truth. There has been nothing specific or helpful to the nook in the latest nightlys. I only upgrade when there have been improvements that directly affect the Nooks improvement.

To each his own.

The new google docs app is FC with the latest nightly. Is it possible this issue is related to GPS issue that broke facebook?

214 is at least 30% faster than 210 and there are so many new features for the nook, too!!

I've installed this and I get booted all the way up to the "Touch the android to continue". I get a force close on "Process com.android.vending" and then when I try to touch the android to continue I can't do anything. It's like it's non-responsive. What am I doing wrong here? I wiped/factory reset in CWM and then installed the ROM, powered off, took out the SD and powered back on and it booted up to this.
[Nook Color Android Development] Colchiro:
vending is Google Apps. Did you try reflashing them?
[Nook Color Android Development] cowman4000:
I didn't install GAPPS...

I just wiped everything and reinstalled and now I still get the same force close but now I get a second one "Process com.android.mms" and I still can't get past the touch the android to continue screen.
[Nook Color Android Development] Colchiro:
You neglected to mention this is an sdcard install. I'd try a different CM7 build.
[Nook Color Android Development] cowman4000:
Yes I am installing CM7 from my SD card (to the internal storage) which I stated in my first post. How else would you install it?

I tried a different nightly with the same result.
[Nook Color Android Development] koopakid08:
You need to flash gapps.

Encore: New GPU drivers and userspace libs

Encore: Adjustable clockspeed and voltage - Dalingrin

Encore: Working mem sleep

Encore: USB host support - Verygreen
[Nook Color Android Development] Thirtybird:
Of course its on the one day I leave my Nook at home...

Happy to see this though!
[Nook Color Android Development] BitingChaos:
If you've been keeping up with the nightlies, then nothing, really.

There have been a dozen or so Encore-specific changes. I don't really know where to get the list of changes from, since the nightly build-bot page cuts off old entries.

There have been way more changes than the 7.1 changlog lists. It only lists some of the big things since 7.0.3.

Big changes from 7.0.3 to 7.1:

- deep sleep works

- new boot/splash screen

- new overclock kernel (old stock maxed at 925 MHz, new stock goes to 1200 MHz)

- new kernel supports lots of tweaks with the Nook Color Tweaks app (available from the Market), such as 16/32-bit color mode, overclock control, voltage control, USB host control, Sound boost control, etc.

- default DPI change from 161 to 160

- battery stats are written correctly (every hour and on boot, I believe) so you get a more accurate battery reading.

7.0.x was basically an Alpha for the Nook Color (in my opinion). It worked, but there were just so many quirks, screwy things, and stuff missing. Dalingrin (and others) have done amazing things with it. Every few nightlies had something cool in them.

7.1 is definitely a Beta (again, my opinion). Everything is there and mostly works, but it is still rough around the edges. But it is WAY better than any 7.0.x release.

I can't wait to see what is possible with Android 4.0. (CyanogenMod 8?)
[Nook Color Android Development] bigbob23:
Downloading now, but ROM Manager's "Check for ROM Updates" feature didn't find 7.1. :confused:
[Nook Color Android Development] harpo1:
It's not a nightly so you have to go to download ROMs in ROM Manager and get it from there.
[Nook Color Android Development] residentorca:
I've been using the nightlies for so long I forget: Is there any special consideration going from a recent nightly to an RC?

1. Is a factory reset/data wipe recommended?

2. Is it recommended to reflash latest GAPPS?

3. Will the EMMC/SDCARD swap still be intact?

Any information would be greatly appreciated!
[Nook Color Android Development] Colchiro:
It's just another build so backup your current rom, wipe Dalvik. Installing gApps is usually a safe move, as is fix permissions.
[Nook Color Android Development] cincibluer6:
That's what I did and haven't had any problems. Nothing really seems that different from my limited testing but then again I was running the latest nightlies so it's not a big surprise.

Who knows, I may just stop here and wait for the CM team to release ICS before upgrading again.

A big thanks btw to the team. CM7 has been a joy.
[Nook Color Android Development] topcaser:
How can I wipe Dalvik? And you mean that I should flash gApps again? Never had problems when updating to a new nightly..
[Nook Color Android Development] Larry94:
Any reason to update if I flashed Nightly 214 last night?
[Nook Color Android Development] jasons1004:
the reason is.....its the new one! updates are almost always improvements

ha

all i did was wipe dalvik and flash no prob....but make sure you clear dalvik

(CWM/advanced/clear dalvik)

just got my nook two weeks ago and i think its great but will sell it sometime and get

a streak 7 or touchpad(once android gets working only...ha) or whatever shiny new thing is new at the time.....but i always check xda before i buy any phone or tab to make sure i dont get stuck with stock

im coming from the HD2 forums and ive always been a flash addict

right now i am using CWM to install roms on nook and HD2 at the same time.......hd2 with nexus_3.1a is one of the best

GAPPS for 7.1

Do we use Gapps 0613 or 0828 for the CM7.1 Stable. I see that over on the Nook Forum at AndroidCentral there have been some posts regarding market not working.
[Nook Color Android Development] Ronin3178:
I personally stay with the older market circa 6/13, and use TB to freeze market updater so you don't get the newer market.
[Nook Color Android Development] waylo:
I did the exact same thing too! It is overall better. But...

1. Youtube HQ videos didn't work. Downgraded to an older version of youtube and it works fine.

2. Experienced the sleep of death! First time, so I finally saw what people have been talking about. Will try the release version tonight.

[Nook Color Android Development] Larry94:
Can someone explain exactly what Sleep Of Death is?
[Nook Color Android Development] koopakid08:
When your nook gets stuck in sleep mode and the screen will not turn on until you do a hard reboot. Caused by wifi in deep sleep.

To completely fix:

Set up 2 profiles in tasker, one for wifi on with screen on and one for wifi off with screen off.
