Now that Barnes and Noble has announced that Hulu Plus is compatible with the NC, will we be able to get it on a stable cm7 mod rather than modifying the build.prop file on nightly version? I tried modifying the build.prop file while running nightlies but could never get Hulu Plus videos to play. I prefer running a stable mod over nightlies anyway. Now that the app is officially compatible with the NC, will I be able to run it on a rooted version running cm7 stable or will I need to flash back to stock?
I posted this in the themes and app forum for nook how to do this without modifying anything

What is everyone using? Seems like CM7 is 90% what people are using based on the posts.
Dammit...the last one is supposed to be stock but I can't edit the poll now...
Cm7 baby! Works great.

CM7 from a 16G SD card here!
Tried them all...for me..I am using build 64 of cm and 1.3 kernel from a few months back. Honeycomb was to damn small even with LCD adjust..to slow and not all programs would run.
Cm7 nightlys with the overclock kernel. Honeycomb looked good, but was a little to slow.

CM7 nightly 121....Dal's oc 0618.....on emmc ....SWEET COMBO!!
I say the best setup is Cm7 latest nightly with OC kernel and then dual boot NC 1.2 Rooted Stock.
Useing Phiremod 6.3! Which is a themed Cm7 7.0.3, with dal's 1.3ghz overclock
Might switch to the nightlies though, I wanna try dal's nook tweaks but it doesn't work with my nookie. It also doesn't have usb host support, and for some reason bluetooth no work
CM7 latest nightly with dalingren's kernel off of a 8gb sandisk Had it for a week and it's amazingly smooth and looks awesome!
Been playing with CM7 on an 8GB class 4 Sandisk for a few days now. The more I play with it, the more I like it. I'm starting to consider flipping this around - put stock on an SD and flash CM7 to the emmc...
CM7.1 RC1 with dalingrin's 063011 kernel. It's amazing.
BTW: you've got two options for Rooted Stock.

I've been playing with that one on SD and am liking it more and more. ANd, yeah, I know about the two options for Rooted Stock but I can't figure out how to edit the poll. If you know how, pass it on please.
Go CM7!!! Seriously great work on that, everyone. I've moved it from sd to emmc since it's gotten so stable and the sleep issues were cleared up (also I seemed to be having issues with the sd card). I couldn't imagine going back now.
Sporting a fresh install of CM7.1 RC1 with OC, IMEI patch, Chainfire3d.
I love everything this thing can do and the battery life is awesome!!
I have a new nook on its way to me and ive been reading up as much as I can on the potential this device has.
From what I have gathered so far it seems best to install Phiremod on this device.I dont have any real interest in the Barnes and noble software as I prefer Alkido and use this alot on my current tablet. I also want as trouble free experience as possible.
Questions I have are as follows:-
1) Is phiremod v7 worth going for yet? Or should I stick to 6.3?
2) Is it worth upgrading the tablet to B&N 1.2 update and using ManualNooter 4.6.16 to root it or should I stick with 1.11 and use something else? What is best here or does it not matter?
3) Can I use phiremod as my main rom installed to the internal hd and have say one of the honeycomb mods or cm7 run from a sd card? Naturally the sd would need a menu for this.
Many thanks to any help in advance
1) Phiremod is kinda old. I suggest the latest CM7 nightly, or MIUI (which is extremely simple to use)
2) If you install custom ROM, the BN Software is trashed. What's the point upgrading?
3) Stick with a good functional OS on the internal hd (call it the emmc) and put an OS you like but is not stable on the sd card.
1) But what about the latest version? I understand its based on a recent cm7 nightly anyway? Maybe you were not aware of it.
2) Yes this was what I wondered. Thanks for the confirmation.
3) Yes I was thinking this.So I can have say cm7 or a variation on main drive then honeycomb on sd then from what your saying. Thats great. Thanks
I believe Phiremod was built on cm7 and development has either stopped or is well behind. I would also recommended CM7 though. It really makes this device very useful.

Phiremod is just a themed version of CM7. The stable release of Phiremod is based of CM 7.0.3 and the test version of Phiremod is based off cm nightly 110 or something like that.
So yes Phiremod is outdated and the CM 7 nightlies and Miui releases are the most current roms you can get.
Thanks alot for the info guys I will go with cm7
Can someone give me a link that will be compatible with my nook color it is currently running cm7 and gingerbread version 2.3.7 the original nook version was 1.3

I would think you need to do a full wipe from whichever CM you are on.
Hockeyfamily has a thread for this in the dev section. He and others are working on an ics version so don't know how often updates will come thru'. The current version works fine for me right now, tho'.
Cheers,
ROM Manager v5.5.1.7, CM10-20130203. Download ROM shows only CM 7.2. Choosing Cyanogenmod shows only CM 7.0 thru 7.2. Where are CM10 nightlies? Oh, yeah, my PC. Downloaded CM7.2 stable & gapps on wife's NC, like to do similar on my CM10 NC.

You can get at http://get.cm/?device=encore
Or, use the CM updater, settings > about tablet > Cyanogen Updates it's pretty easy
I have CM11 installed on my nook hd+ at the moment and its decent.
I feel I would like to install the quickest and most efficient rom and kernel.
Does anyone know what rom is quickest/ most responsive.

Ok I'm going to answer my own question.
I have tried the cm 11 rom and it gave me funny flashing screens, not particularly fast.
Cm 10.1 seems to be better stability and speed wise. I am upgrading to cm 10.2 now.
The screen flashing is caused by wallpaper, as users has guessed. Are you using Nova launcher by the chance? As for the question, I use succulent's CM11 for some months already, best rom here. I also run Trim one a week.

I am currently running CM11 snapshot version. Previously I was running 10.2 stable. To be honest, I don't notice any significant difference in performance.
My tablet is new and I have not yet had the need to run trim. Can someone guide me how do I run it if I want to? I couldn't seem to find this info in the trim thread.

I think it is automatic with CM11. You don't have to do anything yourself.

Succulent's CM11 is the best ROM out there, imo.
(And yes, screen flashing is because of a bug in the wallpaper settings. It can be avoided by setting your wallpaper using the "Full Tool" instead of the "Portrait Tool".)

Trim is only automatic if your tablet is plugged in and idle. If you have apps that run in the background it will prevent trim from working. It can be run from the terminal if needed you will need to double check but I think it is Sudo fstrim -v /

I am curious to find out more about Succulent's CM11. His changes etc.
Is there a link to a forum post where this ROM is posted? This is better then just a download link in case he posts newer ROMs.
Cheers,
sb

Yes, here you go: http://iamafanof.wordpress.com/2013/12/20/cm11-0-kitkat-android-4-4-2-for-nook-hd-xx-20dec2013/
I would recommend the 3/7 build with the 8x8 fuzz kernel.
His latest build has the CM Theme engine bug (which sometimes FC's systemui etc.)

I am no expert. Is there something specific he has done so the UI is more responsive? Why not merge this upstream with Cyanogenmod? Especially all browsers (CM11 M6) could be better/faster.

Bummer. I tried to read the install description for http://iamafanof.wordpress.com/2013/12/20/cm11-0-kitkat-android-4-4-2-for-nook-hd-xx-20dec2013/ including the 8x8 fuzz kernel several times. I already flashed CM11 M6 using a tutorial so I thought I will figure it out. But the description just confuses me.
Could somebody please write a short step-by-step tutorial including links to files needed?
To be honest, I'm still using CM 10.1.3 (Android 4.2.2) on the Nook HD+. I'm not too bothered about being on the latest Android version, as long as my current build is stable; which I find CM 10.1.3 is; a stable version of CM 10.2 has been released, and although the TRIM bug is non-existent now, I'm still not risking anything. CM 10.1.3 has not caused any problems whatsoever on my Nook HD+.
The Nook HD (the 7" model) is not affected by the TRIM bug, so I've updated that to CM 10.2; and that does offer a more responsive OS, most likely due to TRIM. I don't think I'll be updating these two tablets any time soon, especially as CyanogenMod are no longer releasing stable builds.
10.2.1 has wifi scanning quirks and I find that the web browser crashes often. So I'm on 10.1.3 as well. Maybe CM11 will be solid one day.
It blows my mind how much work it takes to make Google's Android drops work right.
By the way you can TRIM with 10.1.3 as long as you don't have a bugged EMMC chip. There is a app in the store called eMMC Brickbug Check that will tell you if you do. CM10.2.1 and newer have a kernel patch to workaround this bug but 10.1.3 does not.
