I have the OTA

I have the OTA Notification didn't install it, who or which developer should i contact in order to find the installation path or log of it just so it could help people?

It was pointed out to me in another thread that an app in the market called Alogcat would do the job. BTW, thanks for asking. Let us know how it goes!

Please post the url to the update.zip file.

Apparently running a logcat does not help in the quest for a permaroot solution. The OTA writes to a r/w partition in nand. The bootloader checks the sig on reboot and flashes from there. The nand locks on reboot. Don't waste your time but thanks for trying to help!

Just wondering if people could see our check the sig checking thing btw I don't know how to get the update.zip
By the way in my opinion people want to use logcat because they want to know where the update.zip is stored

I installed the OTA, and just saw this thread. I haven't really been following everything...
What's the deal? Why are you guys concerned with the OTA? Potential post-launch lockdown issues?

It won't help with root since it's signed. I just want the update.zip url so I can apply the update without waiting for the OTA. Please post your logcats.

Ok gunna strt my logcat n update
Btw my update is auto

Need to fire up alogcat as soon as you notice the notification for update. Then save it to sdcard and post the txt. That way we can get the OTA link. Don't think running it on install will do anything since it boots into recovery and alogcat won't be running anyway.

So whats the point of using alogcat.. I need to charge my battery before updating.
Sent from my HTC Glacier using XDA App

Let me summarize the tons of posts about this.
1. install alogcat
2. wait for notification of OTA
3. fire up alogcat
4. save log as txt file to sdcard
5. remove personal information from log file
6. post file on XDA so that others can have the link and download the ota update as well without having to wait.
Thanks for being part of the community.

One problem tho, the file was downlpaded via boot loader, scanned my system for any zip files and files with update on its name, I didnt see any, btw im gunna upload the log when i get hoME

Custom MTD Partitions for the Wildfire, My Findings

Hi all.
I'm sorry first of all on creating a new thread as I'm not allowed to add to dev posts.
I have created Custom MTD Partitions of : 140, 5
using CyanogenMod 7 Nightly: 220
(New Market)
I have tried to download a game third blade and i get an error of insufficient space
like ''Hanakie'' in this thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1233340
I have downgraded the market now to an old one and now able to download this game.
I am going to try tonight to upgrade the market from old to new but not a fresh install of a rom and see if if Im still able to. I will post my findings when done.
ps I would like to thank all the Developers here for for making my phone awesome and interesting til my next upgrade and then will have 2 phones to tinker with.

5mb cache is too low i had the same problem
edit: cm7 should move cache files to data/local if they are larger but this dont work for me i got the low memory message

Only problem I had with 5mb cache was in clockwork recovery, I always got an error as there wasn't enough space for it to write a log.

I have tried these MTD Partitions: 140,5 140,10 140,20 140,25 and 140,35 with same results.
Im currently running at 145,45 as i know works great, but would like to see if i can get a little more space.
I like to try everything on here lol i love beta testing.

Hi apollo, can you please clarify whether you are using any sort of Apps2SD stuff? (Except for the built in one in CM)

You were able to fit the latest CM Nightly on a 110MB /system partition? Did you go for a barebones build? AFAIK, the standard CM will not fit on a 110MB system partition. (Unless of course, it is stripped)

its not bearbone as such ujst took out all ringtones, all but on each alarm tone and notification tone and removed some of the not needed apps from the rom like email, music player (got power amp), cm wallpapers, live wallpapers u get the picture

hi 3xeno (thank you for your hard work)
I'm not using any Apps2SD any more as wanted all my stuff on internal memory.
i did a
1. wipe/factory reset
2. MTD Partitions Guide but instead of restoring from backup i did a fresh flash of
cm7 nightly 220
3. Then flashed gapps-gb-20110828 for Market

I had it running with the market fine, just got a can't write a log error in recovery if my cache was full. Recovery still worked fine manually but wouldn't do the auto backups from rom manager etc etc....

2nd init recovery

Hi I posted a couple days ago about flashing a 4.5.1 full sbf. I now have it working but I cannot find a version of 2nd init that will work. Every time I put an apk file on sd card it says parsing problem. I have tried with various file managers and app installers but to no avail. Also 2nd init is no longer available in the market so I have no idea how to get into recovery to install nandroids or patches. Any help would be very much appreciated
Sent from my MB526 using xda premium

parse error comes mostly because of incomplete download or signing issues...
redownload and try...
Sent from my MB526 using xda premium

As nogoodusername said, this error usually occurs due to an incomplete download. Try downloading again but do it from your computer this time around and see if it works.

I did download from computer but didnt work. When I try with my phone it says content not supported and therefore wont download

Thank you everyone for your help. Had to format my sd card then everything worked perfectly. Should have done that first really. Thanks again

I'm currently using 1.4.2, should I update or update should be done only if I have problems?

Wifi problem

Well anytime I use stock rom the wifi wont connect. And when I was unrooted it still wourent connect. Im using royal glacier n I like it but wifi cant connect, only when im close to the wifi router it does.but miui and sense roms connect perfectly and being far away. Ive use apps like wifi fix and stuff from market and still wont work. And I googled build prop wifi fix and dirent find answer. Ands its not the kernel cause ive used a stock rom with tdj kernel...so my question is how can I make it work? And my problem is only with stock roms. Any way with the build prop or an app or tweak? And it connects only when im next to router but disables when im more away. Thanks
Sent from my HTC Glacier using xda premium

Try these steps:
Restart the router by unplugging for 10 seconds and then powering it back on again. (I'm assuming it's not a router issue but sometimes this can simply be the cause)
This may be a bug in the ROM or an error during the installation, so I would re-download the ROM, verify the MD5 sum.
In CWM, backup the current ROM. Do a factory data reset, wipe cache and dalvik cache, go to mounts and storage and format /system. (this is to ensure there aren't any files lingering on the phone)
Flash the ROM, and after the flash wipe cache and dalvik cache (just in case.) Reboot.
If you're still experiencing WiFi issues it's most likely is a bug in the ROM and I would contact the developer of the ROM for a fix/workaround.
If you want to try, you can download the Kick Ass Kernelizer script by Zepplinrox found here:
Kick Ass Kernelizer RC7
After you have the script on your phone, install script manager from the market, err, play store
Navigate to the Kick Ass Kernelizer script and tap it. On the dialogue the pops up click 'run as root' and run the script.
Follow the on-screen instructions and choose if you want I/O tweaks.
After this, in order to make sure the script runs, there should be a log somewhere that would tell you
If it isn't running from your init.d folder you may have to navigate to your init.d folder at /system/etc/init.d
Find the script usually 98 something Kernelizer. Click it and select Run at boot as well as run as root. This should fix that issue if it's not running.
And if the kernel tweaks there don't help you, it's a bug. Contact the developer or switch to a different ROM

Wow thanks for all that help!

nook root help

Hello,
I had just recently rooted and flashed my nook with cyanogenMod 7 and installed gapps zip file. Now at various times I get "android.process stop" any ideas on how to get this to stop?
Thank you

Please let us know what versions of each you installed. It is important to figure out what might be causing the issue. Also, if it is the first time you have done this, and you haven't spent much time personalizing, I would just flash again to see if it resolves the issue.

Go in to recovery wipe all but EMMC. Dont touch it. After a full proper wipe reflash. If you dont proper wipe you get klingons some times. Lol

Please download and install (flash zip from CWM) from here http://goo-inside.me/gapps/gapps-gb-20110828-signed.zip.
You have the ICS(CM9) version of gapps for the CM7 version.

I've downloaded that version of gapps and still had the same issue.

I would do what Hal suggested "Go in to recovery wipe all but EMMC. Dont touch it. After a full proper wipe reflash. If you dont proper wipe you get klingons some times."
Then flash the gapps version recommended in above post. If you are still experiencing issues, then start from scratch, make sure to wipe all caches (don't touch EMMC) and use only the gapps mentioned here.

So what is EMMC? Is that the primary operating system?

EMMC is the main partition for the Nook <where the main system resides>. When I clear up my system I 'wipe' "cache partition" and Advance> Wipe Dalvik cache. You access these from the CWM recovery.

I wipe /system, /data, /cache, and dalvik-cache. Then flash the new ROM. I would also suggest giving CM7.2 a try instead of 7.1 along with the gapps mentioned previously. Wiping /system is actually an important step for getting everything settled correctly,

I completed the steps that you recommended and install the gapps that you suggested and did all the wipes. As soon as I restarted the nook this is what I got "Sorry! The process android.process.media has stopped unexpectedly. Please try again. Force close"

Have you tried Mirage cm 7.2 yet?

no where can I get that at? and is a image file like 7.1 encore?

OP of this thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1344873
Scroll down to downloads. This is a very stable and usable ROM. Hope this helps.

Thanks for helping me out everyone with this I greatly appreciate it. Something else I am looking at now, is there a way to convert a java file (jar) into an android file (apk)? I ask this because I have found an app call andro lite what it does is it allows you to use your android as a keyboard, mouse, and others input devices with your computer but you have to download the server file which is a jar file. I'm think if it is possible to do this then I can have the jar file on my nook and use my droid phone as the input device.
Thanks in advance for the help and advice.

I use a VNC client app for that sort of thing. Valence acts as keyboard and mouse via VNC and lets me run demos while walking around the room.
VNC servers are available or even supplied for most OS's.

So I looked them up in the play store and from understanding of that it is more for android controlling windows. I'm looking for android to android type. I want to be able to use the keyboard from my droid 4 (whether physcial or virtual) to type in or operate on my nook.

I don't think you understand the differences between asking a question and development. This place is for posting a ROM. Check Q&A and post there. PM a mod and have them move this to the correct section.
