I need help!!! My Nook Color keeps freezing up randomly and often and i do not know why. I thought it was the launcher i was using but i went back to the default and it still does it. I recently reset my NC to factory default to try to fix the issue and it did nothing. Is there extra steps i should do like wiping emmc or anything along those lines?

What ROM are you running, and did you install to the internal emmc memory or onto an SD card?
Some things to consider. If on an SD card then the card itself can be the problem, particularly if not a SanDisk. Have you tried fix permissions?
I am running cm7.1 on the emmc. I was running the Kang build but that's when i started noticing the freezing so i reinstalled cm7.1. The freezing persisted so i reset to factory default then back to cm7.1. Still freezing
Are you using a weather widget i.e., beautiful Widgets, berry weather, weather and toggle widgets, etc. These all are known to cause random freezes. Also when installing your rom to the emmc, do you format data, system and cache (in cwm recovery)? Necessary for a clean install.

I would try uninstalling the flip clock and see what happens. If it still freezes try it without the BB Disk.

Can you recommend any clock or battery widgets or do all widgets freeze the nook?

I don't think there is a generic problem with widgets and the Nook. It is just that they are a common source of this type of problem and there maybe interactions with other services running on your Nook.
I use Digital clock widget (Maize) and it is stable on mine.
I use the transparent clock widget (it is not a digital clock as every digital clock I have tried causes freezing). New and weather widget (also called Genie widget) does not cause freezing problems so I use that for my weather. You have to Google search for the genie widget as it is not in the market. It is included in many roms.

Why do you need those?
Just for beauty the look of it?
Clock and battery indicator can be shown in the notification.

For the last week, everything on my home screen has been disappearing. Sometimes my apps and widgets will there, but usually they won't. If anyone has any tips/suggestions I would appreciate it.

U need to give more info than that to be helped. Did u put apps on the sd card?
I had this happen to me before too, shortly after I installed Launcher Pro. It was happening on the stock launcher (icons disappearing from the home screen). After I installed a 3rd launcher, ADWLauncher, everything seemed to finally work again. FWIW.

Hi there, so I have some annoying problems.
1. I have installed some clock widgets, about 3-4. But they are not showed in widgets list. But they are normally installed. I can see only when I uninstall and again install them.
2. There are also some disappearing apps in app drawer, for example "Buka lite", "VPlayer Advanced" etc. Sometimes they appear but after some time they again disappear ...

oops I hit thanks instead of reply lol
Anyway, if you move apps to sd widgets disappear.
They have to stay in internal memory
Yes, I tried that but nothing happens. After reboot are the widgets back and they are still available, so I guess the widgets problem si solved.
And the disappearing apps - I tried GO Launcher instead of the stock launcher, and yet it seems to be alright.
Thanks for the reply, the problems are solved

Sometime SD may not properly mount which may cause the problem you had.

Hi all,
a few days ago, all my widgets stopped updating anymore. The widgets I have installed are:
Beautiful widgets - clock and weather widget.
Mini-info - widget to show battery,phone internal memory, and sd external memory left.
Widgetsoid 2.x - switches for wifi, bt, mobile data,..etc.
Even the clock is not updating. I tried removing the widgets and re-attaching them to the home screen but not use. I also tried un-installing the apps of the widgets and re-installing them and also no use.
I don't know what seems to be the problem. I did not change any settings before this happened.
Btw, I'm on stock jelly-bean, rooted.
I am suspecting maybe one of the widgets is taking too much memory and blocking the auto-updates of everything else?
Any ideas guys?
Make sure task manager app if you have one installed does not autokill these widget apps.

I recently noticed that the widget I was using on my homescreen wasn't responding Digital Clock Widget and would no longer take me directly to the alarm when pressed. I checked and it was still set up for that in the settings so I tried to remove the widget and put a new one up but to no avail. I tried restoring it with Titanium but no joy as well as uninstalling and starting from scratch. But when I installed it again, this time I couldn't see the app's widgets in the app drawer.
I've tried another clock app and can't see the widget for that either. I had a go at long pressing a blank area on the homescreen but the only option it gave was to change the wallpaper. I had a play with that and changed the wallpaper I'd set up from one of my photo's but when I went to put that back on, that doesn't work either. I'm stumped!
ROM - NexusHD2-ICS-4.0.4-CM9-HWA V2.7 [Nand]
Kernel - tytung_HWA_r3.4
Launcher - stock Trebuchet
Thanks for any pointers guys - sorry if this has a rather obvious answer but I've tried everything I could and am very new and rather tentative when it comes to the whole modding thing!
I've installed PA rom 3.60..latest build with matrix kernel.
There are 2 issues,firstly the widgets menu is lagging to the core.I tried with all transition effects thinking that it will change,but no success.
Secondly the phone restarts on its own while playing music mostly but sometime even when the phone is idle or charging.
Tried wipe data,reflashed the ROM and kernel.
The applications installed are also very few.
FYI:there are 22 pages in widgets menu mainly because of Quicknote app and UCCW.
Also Im using Apex launcher.
Launcher wont fix this thing..You can try hiding the apps which has got too many widgets in the drawer eg UCCW,minimilistic text,zooper widget etc.I hope it helps bringing down the Lag

You can reduce lag in widgets menu with the app - auto-starts. Open it, then choose -widget updating, and then disable some widgets that you don't need. I also have PA on n4 and I only have that problem.

check md5 on rom and gapps. Maybe you need to redownload the rom and reflash.
