[Q] Why won't my nook connect to my computer anymore? - Nook Color Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hey everyone,
My girlfriend recently bought a NookColor via Craigslist that was already running
Gingerbread. Now i'm new to the Android ROM being on a Nook so bear with
me.
Here's the Stat's:
Android Version: 2.3.4
CPU Info: ARMv7 Processor rev 2(v7l)
Mod Version: CyanogenMod-7-05102011- NIGHTLY- encore
Build number: GRj22
Here's the Problem:
There's a problem with the NC lagging and randomly pressing buttons. (i.e.
Angry birds randomly launching... Very frustrating >.< )
There's also a problem with the USB connection when I try to get into the Mass
Storage Mode. When i pull the Notification bar down and press the "USB Connect
files to Computer" button to get into Mass Storage mode it freezes and returns
to the home screen.
Can anyone give me some words of wisdom to fix these problems?

Honeycomb is very unstable, check out cm7 for it. Just Google it, or look in the stickies on android development here in the nook forums.

Since you didn't mention, I assume you ran CM7 on eMMC.
If that's the case, then it won't hurt to do another clean installation on eMMC again using latest nightly build

[Q] HELP - Stuck with DK18 with USB not working

Ever since I updated to DK28 (loong time ago) I noticed that my device become unrooted, and the USB is not recognized (already tried different cables, different PC, different OS) none of the OS even recognize that there is a device inserted to the PC eventhough on Epic, the USB menu appeared. Searching at the device manager and no new device recognized at all.
I tried to use Epic's stock recovery to flash any kind of ROM: stock ROM full, stock ROM update, but always give me errors: status 2 error and or verification failed.
My Epic is still working, however, I cannot do anything with it anymore. Cannot root, cannot update, etc, etc.
I need more advice on alternative solutions that I can use.
TIA
Have you tried the update.zip samsung had posted for the "mac users"? That could update yu to EB13, no root.
Do a search on the forum, I know you can find it.

Help...phone is acting up

About three weeks ago my phone crashed in the middle of an update. I thought it was bricked. After many attempts to flash different ROMs and it always getting stuck on the logo screen it started working....or so I thought.
When I connect the USB cable the MTP screen comes up, then the phone vibrates and goes back to the normal screens.
If I try to use the alarm feature, again, it vibrates once, pauses, then vibrates twice. I then get the "Force Close" screen with the following message, "The application Clock(process com.sec.android.app.clockpackage) has stopped unexpectedly. Please try again."
Same thing happens when I try to run the music player. I downloaded Poweramp and although it plays the sound is very low and sounds like complete ****. I then downloaded a different music player app and I get the same vibrate issues.
Any ideas what could be wrong?

Elelinux-7.0.0-Hero-v2.0 - issues

I am writing on this thread as i still cannot add to the development thread yet
I am using Elelinux-7.0.0-Hero-v2.0. Thanks Ele for a great rom.
So far the only problem i have had is once the unlock screen went invisible on me.
I had to use the patch which worked fine. no black screen. everything else works great so far.
Just trying to contribute to the developers what i can to help.
Any one else has any issue yet.
Elelinux-7.0.0-Hero-v2.0
RADIO VERSION:63.18.55.06SU_6.35.17.03
Kernel: Herokernel-12a
I've had the same issue with the lockscreen but like yourself it was a once off.
Generally the ROM is great (however, this is the first ROM that I've flashed to my hero)
The only other issue im getting is with linking facebook with my contacts; for some reason FB keeps crashing. But keep in mind that I'm a retard in comparison to what you lads know about custom roms etc..... but slowly learning!

same problems
I have had the same problems as you. lock screen went invisible a couple of times. and my facebook does not work quite right.
Apart from that has been very stable. no problems or reboots. works great.
Running gingerbread with honeycomb theme on my hero. running at 691mhz is well good.
I have got widgets running on every screen to.
Elelinux RC4 version 7.0 V2.0
kernel 12a
691mhz
clockworkmod.
Thanks Ele for a great rom
After installed 2.0 patch, I still get blank screen (wall paper ok, no any widgets).
The only way to solve is restart
Any thing wrong with my installation? (same spec as above post)
The Bug seems to affect some phones and not others. Might be due to different hardware but not sure.
I am a network engineer. Not a developer.
There is a patch that fixes the black screen bug which might help. You might have to delete dalvik cache first though. But as said not a developer.
I just wanted to try some different roms and loaded cronos rom yesterday and is very good. So running that at the moment.
It is really fast and stable. The fastest i have used so far. But i have not tested everything yet like GPS. But admit i am becoming a cronos fan.
Cheers.
P.s i always backup my phone first and do a complete wipe before trying a new rom. Otherwise could get problems.
I use clockwork mod.
Unfortunately the bug your getting with black screens, invisible menus etc.. is an aosp bug that affects some devices which Google are unable to fix, if you had read through the thread you would have seen this. Ele is working hard on a fix for this but as CM no longer support the hero, its unlikely many cm7 roms will see many updates.

Everyone is hoping that Google will fix the memleak and invisible manus problem. To fix it, one needs to undersatand the big picture on how these things are managed. I think it can be done only by experienced coder.
It's a real shame. i love gingerbread and did not want to go back to 2.1 or 2.2.
But might have to if they do not fix it.
I know Ele is working hard on a fix. using his rom at the moment. Was using cronos. But suddenly started getting random reboots and battery started only lasting a few hours and could not find out why.
Thanks to all devs and help.
Elelinux 7.0 v2.1 GPS reboot issue
Hi all,
I found Elelinux 7.0 v2.1 to be almost perfect.
The only major issue so far for me is that when running applications such as sportstracker that use GPS and are running in the background, that as soon as the GPS connection is lost (for whatever reason) the phone always seems to crash.
I wonder whether anyone else has seen this issue and whether there's a way to investigate it.
E.g. is it possible ot redirect logcat to the sdcard and then analyze the log file?
Regards,
MJ
Her0 V2.1 - USB problem
This is a weird one...
I flashed to Elelinux 's fab 2.1 the usual way....
I booted into the ClockworkMod Recovery V2.5.0.7
-- wipe cache partition
-- Advanced - Wipe Dalvik Cache
-- reboot
Then again within Clockwork Recovery I choose 'Install zip from sdcard'
I select the Hero rom and it flashes perfectly...
Now the problem ----> I cant get the usb port working to enable transfer of files?
When the phone boots up it shows 'preparing sd card'
Then when i connect usb lead to pc it shows 'usb connected'
When i then pull the screen down, i see 'usb connected - select to copy files to/from your computer'
When i select that tab, it just crashes back to the home page?
I see the icon at the top of the screen but when i pull down the screen and select as above, it crashes back to home screen again?
In settings, i have both USB debugging and USB debugging notify - all enabled.
Can anyone provide a solution to this issue for me..
thank you
The only way around this problem i think is to mount usb storage from recovery.

[Q] No USB recognition wit [ROM][JB 4.2.2][CM10.1] for Lenovo Ideapad K1 3G+Wifi

I updated my K1 with the [ROM][JB 4.2.2][CM10.1] for Lenovo Ideapad K1 3G+Wifi from [ROM][JB 4.1.2 JZO54K] CM10 for Ideapad K1 v6.1 3G+Wifi. Everything went well, I have the listed gapps also flashed in. No software issues at all, I finally have the rotation lock working again after 2 years of not having it. My issue is that after flashing in the new rom (file named: cm-10.1.3-RELEASE-k1-wifi) the USB connection from the tablet to the computer is no longer recognized.
-went into 'USB Computer Connection' under the Storage settings and ensured the "Media Device(MTP)" was checked off
-went into developer settings and ensured that the USB Debug settings was unchecked
-rebooted both tablet and computer
-unplugged and replugged in the USB cable multiple times.
Re-installed the kaschemme cm-10.1.3-RELEASE-k1-wifi, ensureing I did a complete wipe, cleared cache and DALVIK cache then installed ROM and GAPPS. Rebooted and went though set-up again. Plugged in the USB.. nothing. Checked USB Computer connection and it's set to media device.
The USB was working, that's how I got the ROMs onto the tablet in the first place. Does anyone know of a way to get the USB support working again??
Thx
Update:
I flashed in the kaschemme's cm-10.1-20130707-EXPERIMENTAL-k1-wifi_v1 and I now have the USB support working again. I'm going to test the build out and see if there is any issues.
Another Update:
I updated my K1 with kaschemme's cm-10.1.3-RELEASE-k1-wifi version of 4.2.2 to see if the the previous flash corrected the USB, and I've lost USB support again. I don't know if it's my tablet specifically, but it looks like there is something wrong in that particular ROM.

Powerdown Video
Hey there,
I was finally able to install this rom after a long Sunday of learning and failing and finally succeeding late last night. My question is in regards to the powerdown video that is supposed to play in the case of power loss. Is it supposed to play every time disconnect my nexus 7 from power? I haven't installed it in my car yet but I've been playing with it and it doesn't do anything when I disconnect it from the power source. Anything I might be missing? I have the following options turned on: Fixed install mode, fast charge in host mode, and firm sleep. Any help is greatly appreciated!
Need some help
Running Autodroid 1.2
Issue #1 Everything seemed to be running great rebooted on Sunday and now it no longer recognizes my usb charging cable or Otg cable. So power down can not take place as well as charging . What do you recommend? Should I re-flash the kangaroo kernel that is on the 1st page?
Issue # 2 I am using a usb hub with a charging port for my setup. I want to use a behringer UCA 202 dac . How should I set this up?
Any help on either would be great.
Newbie Autodroid summary and Nexus 7 car solutions in general
I apologize if this is the wrong place to post, but I'm trying to do a Nexus 7 in dash head unit replacement and I have some questions.
First, a little about myself. I'm an Android (and XDA) newbie, first post, but I have some programming experience (C and some assembly). I am rapidly learning about Kernels, ROMs, etc. I try to learn as much on my own as I can so I won't be a pain here. I know wiring, and am an electrical engineer.
My problem is this; I need a solution to allow the Nexus 7 to OTG charge, or maybe it's possible to use the side dock connector for charging? If I OTG charge, I read that Autodroid may not support that, but Oxydo does? I could really use a source of information (youtube video etc.) so I could learn how to make this work.
And, for that matter, how to program my Nexus. I've seen how to root it, and I think I can do that, but then should I flash it with Oxydo kernel and then Autodroid ROM?
Any help would be greatly appreciate. I'm trying to get this up for myself and for my 17 year old son's truck. Also, thanks for all your sharing of code and help!
Autodroid supports Otg charging as is.
What I would do is go to the play store and download MuliRom manager.
This will make it easy to set up MultiRom.
Multirom lets you install and uninstall multiple roms without messing with your stock rom.
Hope this helps
USB issues
Ok I have been running autodroid for a few weeks. So far it is good. I am having a few issues though with it.
Has anyone been having issues with charging since adding this ROM. Although it is charging it doesn't indicate that, so otg doesn't work. It can't see any usb attached items and such.
My setup includes a Behringer usb dac uca202. Although I plug the dac in the hub (sometimes without the hub) and reboot the devices from off I still get not response; the dac light does not light up, sound still comes out of the tablet speakers. Can Anyone using this setup help me figure this out or at least put me on the correct path
I want to add a backup cam to my system, but there appears to some real issues with this setup. Any help or advise would be great. I want to be able to have it come on as soon as i put the car into reverse

Thanks! That's an interesting idea. I may try that. Are there any disadvantages to this approach besides the extra storage space (which seems like it wouldn't be that big of a deal?)
I just rooted the device, so it's fresh and ready.
On the other hand, I found someone with Timur's ROM, so I have two options now. Autodroid seems a little more up to date, but I'm not sure. Maybe it's just a preference?
Thanks for your help. I know a lot about a lot of things, but in this area, I feel a little like I"m walking around blind! I'm just trying to learn as much as I can.
I don't see any disadvantages and the storage space is minimal.
With MultiRom manager you can also remove the rom as easily as you installed it.
It has a multi boot feature on startup so you can run your stock rom or any other roms that you have installed.
Autodroid is a rom and and Timurs is a kernel. With the Autodroid rom you will have a lot of features which are geared toward an in car installation.
If you decide to use Autodroid don't install it like they show in the op.
There is an easier way to do it using MultiRom.
Advice please
Can I plug in a FIIO D3 into a powered Anker USB hub. I have tried 2 behringer UCA 202 and both connect but no sound from either. I have read the USB ROM tutorial and I know that I must turn the devices off them mount the dac and turn the device back on, but still I get no sound. Help me

That sounds really cool.
I know Autodroid is a rom, but I thought Timurs is a kernel and a rom?
Autodroid can be had at the play store if you sign up to be a tester. I wonder if this is a different version, or I guess somehow it's changed into an app?
If I use multirom, how should I install autodroid?
Thanks so much for your help!

The first thing is to get MultiRom Manager installed and working and then we will go from there.
When you have installed the app and opened it you will see a box that says install/update.
If the first two boxes match what is in the status box above this you are ok, if not check these boxes.
If you see a warning in the status box about the kexex hardboot patch, check the third box and in the drop down menu pick which version of Android you have,
If you aren't sure of which version you have, on your tablet go to setting about tablet and it will show the version.
Tap install and follow the directions.
When this is susessful we will go to the next step
Is there any way to make navigation bar bigger ? I need it to be two times bigger.
What should the ROM look like when installed correctly? This is my first time doing a custom ROM and it appears to be installing correctly but the OS is not any different it seems. It just has Apollo and SuperSu. No additional features anywhere it seems. (Nexus 7 2012 Wifi)
It says....

I rooted and installed CWM. Downloaded the ROM for the first post, wiped dalvik, wiped cache, cleared everything, and then installed the ROM from zip. It doesn't appear to be working unless I am just missing a step. I tried using my new Behringer UCA222 with my OTG Y cable. UCA222 has power, tablet charges, sound plays from tablet speakers....
Any help to get this working out be nice. I don't know what I am doing wrong.
I have noticed a problem with power event manager!
I have disabled waking the screen on power because i can wake it up anytime using my remote control.
The problem is that if my screen is off and there is a power loss then power event manager sets airplane mode but the screen is switched on and stays on.
Anyone elese is having the same problem?
FI Problem
Hello,
i have a Strange Problem with my autodroid System.
In the Power Settings, it is not possible to set up the FI Option.
Everytime i change these setting, it goes back to off.
Because of this Problem, i checked the Autodroid installation an did a new, fresh install.
Changed the OTG Cable and the Power Adapter.
Nothing changed this
I tried again an older 4.2.2 Rom, here workes everithing perfecly with the same OTG and Power Adapter.
Because of the 4.4 Android, i would most likly use Autodroid.
But without a solution for this Problem, i could not use it in my Car.
And i read here, that other Users didnt have the Same Problem.
What did i do Wrong here?
Best Regards
X2 on a bigger navigation panel¡
I am having a problem with everything on the usb hub being restarted everytime I turn off and turn back on. So it has to rescan media, and i have to accept dialogs to use the FM tuner because it doesent remember it used to be there. Is it because i am using stickmount? I have it in locked mode, and I thought thats what it was there for...?
Edit: fixed the issue, I didn't realize the Rom had built in functions for mounting the external drives.
Rear View Cam
Hi,
I posted this in the ROM-thread before, but got informed to post it here in the Q&A thread instead, so it's kind of a double post.
Tried to search the thread but didn't really find the answer, but does this ROM still rely on Carcam as the app to show the video feed from the Easycap, or did someone actually write a new app?
Love the work on this ROM, as I loved the Kangarom before it. This is going in the car, if I can just get the shaky Carcam to actually work after a deep sleep as well...
nexus 7
Hello all, i have been doing a lot of reaseach about autodroid 1.2 and nexus 7. my nexus 7 (2012) is running 4.4.4, i finally got it unlocked and rooted. Than i downloaded autodroid 1.2 and when i went into recovery mode and started the install, and it gave me an error mess saying E:Error in /sdcard/0/autodroid.zip (i shortened the file name) (status 7) Installation aborted. when i restarted the nexus 7 it give me error on bluthooh and clock. any help would be great. I have done a lot of research. Maybe i missed something. thanks in advance.
Trouble Installing Autodroid 1.2 on Nexus 7
So I've been attempting to install Autodroid 1.2 on my Nexus 7 Grouper, but I can't seem to get the bugger going. The tablet originally had Lollipop (5.0) installed.
So here is what I did:
1) Installed the stock 4.4.4 ROM (Build Number KTU84P)
2) Installed Bootloader 4.23
3) Installed TWRP 2.7.1.1
4) Installed SuperSU (rooted the tablet).
5) Performed a normal wipe.
6) Installed Autdroid 1.2 for Grouper
After doing the above, and going to the "about tablet" setting, it displays the following:
Kernel version: 3.1.10-kangaroo
Build Number: KTU84P
So it looks as though the kernel installed fine, but the ROM itself doesn't look the part.
A few more things to note, OTG seems to be kind of funky. I can insert a USB drive and mount it using Stickmount, but the drive doesn't show up under Settings->Storage.
Oddly enough, charging with OTG works.
Any help would be very much appreciated.
Hi guys, can some one explain me how to wake up my nexus after disconnecting from charger?? What should happened is power event manager should wake up n7 when charger plug in but nothing happening so when i press button on side to turn it on it will on but system doesnt recognize charging, but when i plug same charger on working screen then everything is fine im using normal cable not otg, is it a problem that its not otg?
