Hello,
Could you please help me for a couple of questions?
- do i need an sd card to root my NC?
- is there a way to install .apk without rooting my NC?
- what is a basic and stable rom to start with? I am using CM7 on my Motorola Milestone

1. Yes, you need a 64gb card to root
2. yes, but you will need a 64gb card for this too.
3. At this time all roms have to be imaged to a 64gb card to run.
Sorry i was using my phone to post and i thought that i was in Q&A already... and beleive me i went through a lot of pages through Tapatalk but didn't find anything!

He's joking.
All you need is a 2gb micro sdcard or larger and you should be fine.
Their flaming you because you posted a general question in the dev forum. . Lol.

I have no idea what he's talking about. You can use any SD card 2gb or bigger. The ROMs currently available are CM7, honeycomb (based off the SDK), and stock 1.2 rooted. For honeycomb and CM7, you can install it on the eMMC or run it off the SD card.
Here are a few links:
1.2 rooted
SD Card installs (ROMs)
Dual Boot ROMs (eMMC)
NookDevs Wiki - Tutorials and other info.
Between those and this forum, you should be set. Extra bits are Netflix on the Nook, and running Tegra 2 Apps. I'd recommend overclocking if you do any of those though - once you overclock to 1.1ghz then everything is fast as can be.
Honestly guys sorry!
I used Tapatalk and wasnt able to understand where exactly i should have posted!
OK thanks i'll check it out. I was reading last week that you can have a ROM on th SD Card and just reboot through that, and if you dont want that, just take out the sd card and you have the stock ROM. Is that true, or not so much?
Because i live in Europe, i dont want to mess so much with NC, as if anything goes wrong i wont have a store near me to go and get some help!

The Nook will automatically boot from the SD card, so I would just pick up a spare sd card to try out one of the ROMs. If you like it, you could install it on the internal memory, eMMC, or dual boot.
The great thing with the Nook Color is it's almost impossible to brick, and everything I posted is completely reversible. Worst case is you take the SD card and run clockwork recovery to restore it.
Just to get the full experience, I would root stock 1.2 with Manual Nooter (look at the link I posted before), so you get the full Android experience with B&N's mods -- best for reading btw. Also, most of the apps on B&N are paid apps, but, on the market they're free. That's an incentive to root right there.
ok thanks for your time!
Great to be also in the Nook family of users now!
Will try it with my 2gb card first and then will buy a bigger one. Would the class of the card have any material differences on the Nook performance?

Check out this thread for the best cards to run from. tl;dr version: any SanDisk class 4, 8GB or 16GB seems to be the best bet.
I haven't found any post in here with this problem. Am I alone with this problem?
On every single ICS Rom i have such an horribly slow USB storage speed.
Read about 5mb/s
write about 0.5-1.5mb/s
In CWM Recovery i have Normal speed like in GB
I tried many ICS Roms and wiped everything a couple of times but still i have to go to Recovery if i want to copy big files to the phone.
Can Anyone help me with this?
Everything works fine for me...
ICS thing yeah, lets hope they fix that in a future build.

Something seems to be changed since ICS. In the GB ages, my write speeds used to be very fast.
But, one more thing...that time the format of the storage used to be different and CWM recovery backup was readable on PC with the help of archiving tools...not any more ( all backup files are unreadable and incredibly small in size )
My normal backup is 16-17Mb which used to be arround 400-500Mb in GB ages...
I hope someone could find a solution to this..mounting to storage from recovery is very frustrating all the time.
Then its a good thing Jelly Bean ROMs are now here!

OK, so the debate over partitioning in CM10 is all but done and I'm not going to discuss it here.
I've been building CM10 for my own use with the partition layout change reverted and this works nicely for me. But what about people who can't compile the source for themselves (for whatever reason)?
That's why I'm posting this brief guide to what I'm calling "fudgedating" (its like updating). Using the method below you will be able to stay up to date with all the CM10 nightly updates (except kernel changes) without compiling or doing anything difficult.
ALWAYS MAKE A NANDROID BEFORE FLASHING
I'VE TESTED THIS WITH CM10 NIGHTLIES FROM 23082012 & 22082012 BUT IF IT FAILS TO WORK FOR YOU THEN I'M SORRY, THAT'S LIFE. RESTORE YOUR BACKUP & MOVE ON
What you'll need:
1. My cm-10-20120918-FISHEARS-galaxysmtd.zip file (my nightly that has a working kernel with the old partition layout)
2. Any current Nightly zip of CM10
3. A computer with a Zip-capable archive tool
What you need to do:
1. Make a copy of cm-10-20120918-FISHEARS-galaxysmtd.zip and call it something like CM10-FUDGEDATE.zip
2. delete the /system folder from within CM10-FUDGEDATE.zip (or whatever you called it)
3. extract the /system folder from your official CM10 Nightly
4. add that /system folder to your CM10-FUDGEDATE.zip (or whatever you called it)
Now you have a CM10-FUDGEDATE.zip (or whatever you called it) containing the kernel and partition layout from cm-10-20120918-FISHEARS-galaxysmtd.zip and the system from the CM10 Nightly.
Copy CM10-FUDGEDATE.zip (or whatever you called it) to your SD card and flash it in CWM.
Reboot & profit
NOTE: currently you can NOT flash any custom kernels because there aren't any that support the latest CM10 while still having the old partition layout.
Whenever you want to repeat the process for a new Nighly, just do steps 2,3 & 4 again and flash it as before.
Please don't flame this thread. If you think its a bad idea then please state only technical objections to support your view.
All credit to Team Hacksung & Pawitp for the awesome effort that continues to go into CM10.
Well... old partition nightlies worked very good for me.So I will try this.
Anyway I noticed there are some jb ROMs with less changes than yours calling theirselfs stable so far etc.
Will you make thread of cm10 (or call it like you want) with old partition and newest nightly?
Thanks. Sorry for poor English.

Thanks but I don't want to start the hard work of maintaining a ROM thread. This is just instructions to stay up to date.
I do compile my own CM10 which you can download by clicking on my signature. Again, I won't be starting a thread for this as its really just for me but I don't mind sharing.
I will change the thread title though.

That's good to know. I think we both must have phones with the faster NAND because I didn't see any improvement when the official partition layout changed.

No need to wipe.
If you are flashing a new build over a previous one then you also don't need to reflash gapps

Managed to install your rom, and I got what I want. However I have a probler with Adaway said: /data/data/host not enough spare. Try Adfree solve the problem. Anyway thank you for the idea and rom.
Edit: Just discovered that System had only 300k free space out of 350MB. Maybe I have to delete some not important apk (like those live wallpapers) & unused ringtones.
Edit2: After deleting Chinese & Korean fonts Droidsansfallback , MTL* & Nanum Gothic, I got 12MB free space and Adaway runs smoothly.

That's fine. I think pawitp might get a bit lazy with the system size now that his build has a 2gb /system

A rom more in line with the Slim Bean philosophy (about 280mb system with google apps) would even allow you to create a larger datadata partition (at the expense of unused system partition space, circa 80mb) and improve usability. Using this mind-frame i guess we could gain some 50mb to datadata while still keeping 30mb free in system for people who want to add some removed system apps.
Nevertheless, this is your rom and ultimately your decision.

Its a good idea & perfectly possible. Pawitp just asked for some chip id data in the CM10 thread. It looks like lags could be associated with phones having the older Samsung MoviNand chip. Newer devices have a Sandisk iNand (same as Nexus S). I have the Sandisk so that's why the new partition layout made no difference to me. I'm not sure that increasing datadata would help. I don't use it because I don't see any gain in practice.

Good Question
Would also be interested if this is possible
WebOS is a different animal compared to Android. And Im sure this wont be possible with a locked bootloader. Messing with the partitions is dumb imo, thats the easiest way to hard brick a device.
Guys I came from an LG nitro and we had several issues with modified system partitions really screwing things up. Messing with your system partition is the fastest way to end up with a shiny paperweight. Don't do it.

Would definitely love for more free space especially since i'm running cm11 and the rom is practically a little over 200MB.
Probably some of the devs can have a look at this
Sent from my LG-D802 using XDA Premium 4 mobile app
The system partition is 3.2 GB. It isn't like you can go from 24 to 31 GB free. If your that desperate over an extra gig, you might need to reevaluate what you have on your phone, or invest in a microsd usb card reader.
Also, 200 MB is most likely the size of the zip file, you are using to install the rom. That is compressed size. Mahdi rom (I have on my pc at moment so could check), is 208 MB compressed.. The actual install size is 351 MB. That doesn't include gapps, which also installs to the system partion. The core gapps package is 18MB but installs to be 30 MB. And that is assuming you are using core, the full packages are MUCH larger.
So theoretically, you could free up maybe 2.7GB. Is it really worth a good chance at bricking your phone for that?
This might sound dumb, but I'll say it anyway...
There is media in /system/media, not sure about songs, but certainly ringtones etc
I wonder if one could dump a few gigs of mp3's into /system to make better use of the space, and less use of the media drive (/sdcard).

we need to unlock bootloader to be able to resize partitions
It would be nice to be able to shrink the system partition. I've attached a sample screen of my G2 that is running CM11 nightlies.
But yeah, dropping the system to 1GB would leave plenty of room and boost the 24.1GB up by about 2.2GB to 26.3GB (a 9% increase which is fairly significant).
As others have mentioned though there is the issue of the bootloader.
On a second thought...I recall the unroot/unbricking flash tool causing some issues for people related to phone storage sizes.
I wonder if someone creative might be able to create an image with custom partition sizes via this method.
If u cant resize the partitions, IT would be kind a awesome to create a custom recovery like safestrap or boot Menu Manager which can create multiple System Slots so that u have multiple Systems on ur g2. So Let's say a aosp rom and a modded Stock rom at da same time.
Like so that devs See that.

I would also apreciate that. Having a 16Gb phone with just 10Gb free is a waste of space.
Stock Roms may be 3.2Gb compressed and inflate to 6GB uncompressed, but I am running on CM11, which only should be 500MB at most, when uncompressed.
Also this phone not having a micro SD card really kind of messes it up.
i have 2 galaxy s variant (epic4g sprint usa & sc-02b docomo japan) both have long journey in development history from cm7 to latest cm-11
the partition size was change several times to accommodate bigger system files in newer version
afaik it can be set in kernel source for both device on mtd samsung onenand driver
I don't know about g2 because I just own this device for 2 days lol
I have 16gb, so find a dev who works on this will be a great news for me
Anybody found anything useful regarding shrinking the partition?
Hello XDA community!
As you know, Sammobile announced that I9300 won't get official Kitkat update from Samsung. You can get more information from there;
http://www.sammobile.com/2014/05/07/heres-a-list-of-samsung-devices-getting-the-android-4-4-kitkat-update/
But Samsung released official Kitkat update for International Note 2 (N7100) from OTA. Almost everyone believed in this update is canceled because of low RAM. I did not believe it. So, I started to work to boot N7100XXUFND3 on I9300.
The ROM is about 1.8 GB, we have 1.5 GB partition size for system. There is no way to boot on NAND without partition eMMC. I partitioned my 16GB sdcard and install the ROM to sdcard. I changed the kernel from I9300XXUGNB6. And it booted.
It's running pretty smooth even running on sdcard. Of course it crashes sometimes, but not a big deal. The most important things are not working too (like RIL, WiFi)
Here's a video of demonstration;
Here's RAM usage;
https://drive.google.com/file/d/0B3U72O5ZZ8z-YmJ6UWlMRmtGZmc/edit?usp=sharing
So, What's your opinion about canceling update?
Only commercials, if they update an with years old phone they don't sell more s4 and s5

Great job brother but huge disappointment as Google stated that kk can work on devices lower than 512mb of ram easily yet Samsung cancelled it due to ram limitations not genuine reason possibly they would bring a update in the near future neglecting a flagship device is seriously awful!
Sent from my GT-I9300 using Tapatalk
Well have kitkat, believe me. If you do the same with the KitKat update for the GT-I9305 instead of the Note2 firmware it will be better. Wifi will work, and RIL most probably too after some little changes.
I will try my best to port the upcoming GT-I9305 KitKat update to the GT-I9305. If you could tell me what you have done in order to port the firmware, that would be awesome! Maybe we can team up and start porting as soon as the update is available?
BTW: Why havent you debloated the rom to shrink it a bit? Removing all unnessesary apps from /system/app and /priv-app could make it smaller than 1,5GB

Ahh that makes sense amd im happynto hear that you want to team up! In the past i have ported several things and i think that we can do it together! The only thinh i worry about is the RIL. Lets hope samsung releases the S3 LTE firmware soon so we can start working on it.
Also a thing with the S3 LTE is that it has a different partition layout. We must take care of that and be very carefull in what we do. Unlike the note2 we cant just flash it and see what happens.

Thanks for trying to help all of us Kitkat wanters
Sam**** will definetly not release any Kernel source without releasing a rom along with it. Thats for sure. But we can take stuff from GT-i9305 and Note2 so were good for the next time....atleast till the next major Android version.

A few thoughts:
-RIL: I guess the baseband is loading modem FW from NAND even when booting from SD card. Could also be an EFS issue.
-WiFi is probably Knox interfering with module loading, as seen on the I9305.
-Storage is a consequence of booting from SD card.
-Sensors are either a HW mismatch between S3 and NoteII, or a failure to mount the Firmware partition.
Try to debloat and flash on NAND.

Ok. So let get this straight. what you actually did is that you modified build.prop (someone posted once here how it should look) and replaced the boot. (bin, I guess) with a stock kernle from S3, right ? And you installed it on the SD card because you needed more space ? If this is right, then please upload the ROM here, and I will debloat it for you
I will still try to do this. Also, the build.prop was uploaded on XDA with the news that S3 won't receive official KK. I will remove some Google stuff and then let the flash begin

Nope, the video is legit. Look at the lockscreen and the settings app. Baseband version is also unknown, which is a sign that this is a legit port.

I didn't said it is not legit. in fact, I wanted to know what to do to use it myself And I would probably end just by testing it for few hours, probably testing some random modems / (restoring EFS :-? ). And @henrylife , who is porting the S5 ROM said that every 4.3 kernel works on that, so... probably ending dual-booting it. Found on Note II's thread even ROMs with like 600-700MB.

-WiFi: Maybe KNOX, maybe WiFi modules (dhd.ko) causes the problem. We should try
-Storage: The storage problem isn't causing by booting from sdcard, I tried boot from sdcard with CM11 and I9300XXUGNB6. Those had not any problems about storage. I think I need to change mount commands in ramdisk.
-Sensors: Android Sensor Service is updated in Kitkat. So, we need newer sensor driver of I9300. Maybe we can use CM11 opensource driver.

Ok. So let get this straight. what you actually did is that you modified build.prop (someone posted once here how it should look) and replaced the boot. (bin, I guess) with a stock kernle from S3, right ? And you installed it on the SD card because you needed more space ? If this is right, then please upload the ROM here, and I will debloat it for you
I will still try to do this. Also, the build.prop was uploaded on XDA with the news that S3 won't receive official KK. I will remove some Google stuff and then let the flash begin

I didn't change anything in /system partition. I changed only boot.img. I can't upload it, but if you want to play with this, you can download the ROM from sammobile or samsung-updates.

I'm not gonna contiune to port Note 2 firmware. If Samsung will release Kitkat for I9300, I'll do my best

The Sensor driver should be easy, we can take blobs from the GT-i9305 Update. BTW: Im going to create a developer port thread this evening..lets see what we can do.
To get storage to Mount 100% you will need to modify the vold. Fstab file. Once done your storage should work correctly. If you need help With RIL let me know via PM. Also i Can help you get these bugs ALL ironed out TODAY. Just PM me thanks.

Also OP this is 100% usable With NAND. Just move some Google apps to /data when flashing And It will Fit perfectly atleast that Way your still able to test ram usage

This new kk build will be 100% NAND compatible. Thanks.
