As a newbie, I can't raise this question in Development box, so I guess I'll post it here.
My NC just arrived 2 days ago and I have installed the Dualboot CM7 & CM9 by racks11479. I am an absolute newbie on Android, so I just want to know which one is better in terms of battery life and stability/compatibility.
Many thanks.
right now cm7 is because its stable, but cm9is stable for everyday use but there are some bugs, i like them both but when cm9 is complete it will be alot better then cm7, both are good on battery i cant tell the difference
It seems to me that CM9 still has some bugs (Youtube, Earth and some games don't work on my NC). And the response is a bit slower than CM7. Anybody got the same experience?
I am using samiam's CM9 nightly with v6supercharger and am very happy so far. It is stable and very usable for daily use, in my opinion. But maybe I like to live dangerously.

I also cannot post in the Development forum. I have created the dual boot SD from racks11479. CM7 works great but in CM9 I cannot get the Gapps to work. When I click on Market nothing happens. The Gmail icon is there but when I click on it I get a message that the app is not installed.
I have re-installed the Gapps at least twice and get the same problem each time.
Any ideas?
Yup same thing

I had the same problem when I first installed the racks triple-boot. Hate to tell you, but the only way I got it to work was to wipe the whole card and start from scratch. 2nd install worked great, and later updates worked with a simple Gapps re-flash.

Like others, I'm finding CM9 preferable as a daily driver, but for all three items you specifically listed, CM7 has it beat. Well, I'm not getting force closes or anything, so I'll give CM9 stability, but no hardware video acceleration means certain apps are not going to work, and others won't work well (scratch compatibility), and I'm finding the battery drains much faster than CM7.
I have tried CM7 but it is not very smooth.
Is there any rom better?
For ICS rom, I have tried the Hashcode Zone one but after flashed the rom, my fire just stuck at the booting animation......so I have only flashed CM7 right now.
Personally I love running whistletop's cm7, it runs super smooth for me, and most importantly HW acceleration works as well as all video (flash, HD YouTUbe), which you currently loose with CM9 until the devs get HW acceleration working. Until then, I'm sticking with CM7.
I've been running Whistlestop's CM7 since late January and it's been great-- no wifi issues, SOD, etc. I'm holding out for hardware video acceleration (and hopefully USB OTG) before I move on to ICS.

ICS CM9 Kang ROM Themed recommendation
Since yesterday I am using the ICS CM9 Kang ROM Themed. Before I was using the CM7 barebones. The ICS CM9 Kang ROM is fantastic. It is extremly fast and responsive. The Hardware UI acceleration is not working yet for HD and some times the system frizes. But I can only recommend the use!!
Try this ics ROM at this link:

To me CM7 is the best ROM since everything works. The build in THIS post seems to be slightly better than the other CM7 builds that I've tried.
I've been using jackpot Clavins CM9 on my KF since mid January and love it. While the hardware acceleration doesnt work, everything else runs great. Very fast and newest builds have eliminated SOD issues.
Is there a specific ROM that is Clavin's CM9, or are you building yourself from his github. I see a lot of guys taking his source and making their own ROMs, but nothing specific from Clavin.
Any other opinions on this? I am looking for a ICS Rom which one works the best and is the most stable?
I'm using MIUI from the miui.us, and it's pretty awesome. Still needs some work but sounds like they all do - most issues just seem to be display formatting needing a little tweaking.
You kinda gotta be an MIUI person though, it's a little Apple-esque, not for everyone, though I find tablet usage may be a little less polarizing...

I haven't exactly tested ICS roms extensively, but I'm currently using...
NRGZ28 Energy ICS KANG Rom
I really like it, and the most recent issues fix the Sleep Of Death issues they were having. I would definitely suggest it if your interested in ICS. Get it, flash it, see how it feels and if there's anything that you do that the lack of HW Accel effects. If not then your good.
It comes with NovaLauncher, and since I have a copy of ADW EX, I tried putting that over top of Nova, but I found it to be more sluggish. I would suggest staying pretty much bare bones on what the rom gives you, maybe adjust the awake clocks a little (down clock to 1.0GHz for stock, or under clock it to press the battery out a little further).
MoDaCo would be my suggestion otherwise. It's just Gingerbread, so it's the same old Android stuff. I've never been a huge fan of CM7, but that's just me

I agree that's (IMO) the best ICS ROM at the moment. However, Sleep of Death is still an issue. I'm not sure whether I'm terribly unlucky or what, but I get it every single time I attempt to shut down the KF, no exceptions, ever since 3-15 came out. Never had a SOD on 3-13.
Either way, I second that ROM as awesome among ICS ROMs.
Me likey.

I am also using Energy's KANG. I have not yet encountered the SOD. I used CM7 for a while, but wanted to try out ICS, and am glad I did.
Very happy with it, but am closely watching hashcode's kernel development thread.

I have the Energy ICS rom installed right now and don't like it at all, its just not that stable, on the other hand I don't like the carousel concept. I would like to install something close to stock that isn't going to run my battery dead real fast and the best compatibility with the Kindle Fire's hardware. There are just so many different ones out there, it doesn't have to be ICS, Honeycomb is fine. I was just hoping someone might be able to point me in the right direction. Thanks

Tri4x, out of curiosity were you using the 3/15 version of Energy or the 3/19? I flashed 3/15 on my kindle, and I loved the interface, but once it started getting sleep of death I thought "well I guess I'm going back to stock".
When I saw the 3/19 update in action I was actually really impressed at the improvement. Lack of HW Accel does suck though.
b63 Already suggested MoDaCo if you would prefer a stock rom, I've considered flashing back just to get HW Accel back. It's a really good rom, feels very smooth.
I'm sorry but what is HW UI Acceleration ?
Don't really understand that....
Thank for explain it to me.

No HWA means no Netflix, no YouTube HD, no 720p video.
IMHO better for now to use CM7.
Cm7 is the best ever

If you want to be close to stock, install root and some launcher.
May be Go Launcher HD. You still be on stock but you will have limitation with Android Market and language of user interface, 3th party keyboard and tts, and thousands of other things.
Using CM7 and Go Launcher. No issues at all.

I've been using Energy ROM for about a week and not a single time have I thought about going back to stock, not even due to lack of HWA (yes, I miss netflix from time to time, but since I don't really watch that much TV/Movies on the go I guess is just a particular case where I am not that much affected) plus since changing to ICS I find myself using more my KF as a real tablet and not just a glorified e-reader.
Using 3/19 release of Energy and not seeing a lot of issues others are reporting (SOD only a couple of times)
Just my 2 cents
Hi all!
After reading around and searching for custom roms for the KF, I still do not completely get to the point. This is what I understand
- Stock ROM mods only play around with some installed apps, google market, root
- CM7 is Gingerbread and supports HWA
- Energy CM9 is based on ICS and lacks HWA support (currently on my KF)
What I don't understand is, why CM9 cannot use the kernel from CM7 or Stock.
Does ICS rely on certain kernel features? Or what is the reason?
Thanks.
P.S. If this is an RTFM in any way I'd appreciate being directed to the right point.
I'll put ashes on my hair myself, than.

The second I know. But I could not find out why it is so important to use a newer kernel.
The first link sheds some light. I'll dig deeper which parts of the Android framework are responsible for the userland <-> kernel connection and how they are "version" (GB / ICS) relevant.
Thank you for the links. I did my first Linux port for a custom ARM HW 13 years ago. Russel would never send links. Got flamed more than once ;-)
Dear everyone here,
I'm a newbie and bit of a n00b here.
My goal: I have Nook Color and want to put a stable ROM on it. It would be great if it can be stable, fast and Jelly Bean (CM10)!
I know the last official stable CM ROM is 7.2, Gingerbread. Didn't try it on Nook, yet.
I was following this thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1941247 and tried CM10 nighty (ver. 11. Dec 2012). This was my first Nook Color ROM ever. Everything I've tried was ok, but it's very slow and I can't really use it. Are there any ROMs that are faster, with no leg?
So, please guys, who have tried different ROMs, please suggest me a good working (stable) and fast (no lag). CM10 would be great, if not please feel free to suggest (with a link provided).
Otherwise, I would try CM 7.2, which is a "phone" OS, not that suitable for tablets.
Thanks a lot!
you have to remember that the hardware you have only has a stock, single core 800mhz processor. you wont get any smoother than the latest nightly. i suggest that you do a clean flash of the latest nightly and then go to settings>performance>processor and set your cpu governor to performance and set the max frequency to 1100mhz
you have to remember that this is hardware from late 2010, two year old hardware, it performes well, but it cant compete with the nexus devices.

Hello and thanks for your kind reply!
I've done what you suggested: CPU was already set to 1GHz in CM10, I've set it to 1100MHz and changed "on demand" to "performance". Not faster. Or not fast enough. I din't download another CM10 nightly since the one I'm using is just 3 days old.
I'm fully aware Nook Color is outdated in today's fast digital world. However, I'm disappointed it can't go any smoother since this is really to slow and even frustrating (waiting, click, waiting). What's the point of using CM10 if one can not really use it? CM10 nightly's general respond to basic operations (menus, settings) has a lag. Do the others report the same? What with the other CM10 ROMs, like Paranoid Android?
Would it be much better if I would switch to CM7.2 instead of CM10?
I also have ZTE Blade 2010. phone (600MHz stock single core CPU, OC to 800MHz) that works great on CM 7.2. Smooth and stable.
Once again, I didn't try CM7.2 for Nook Color, maybe it would work just as smooth as on Blade.
For the record, Blade and Nook Color almost have the same AnTuTu bench score (Nook is a bit better).
Please note I was using (testing) simple apps on Nook (not games or anything "heavy"):
- Opera Mini browser, News reading apps, ES File Explorer, etc -- works fine.
- Google Maps also works okay, no lag.
- YouTube is slow, it takes ages to swap from portrait to landscape when Nook is rotated. When finally starts playing it goes smooth even in HD.
- Chrome is a killer! Takes ages to load and is not usable.
All these apps, besides Chrome (requires Android 4) work just fine on my ancient ZTE Blade! :good:
I ask all of this since I saw posts on XDA regarding ICS and JB on NC saying "I'm totally thrilled with this version. Haven't had a bug at all, bluetooth functionality is flawless, and it's even faster than the stock software." I'd like the same!
Any hints now? Again, thanks a lot!
The fastest and smoothest ROM you'll find right now for your nook is going to be (mirage cm7.2).

Especially if it is installed on the EMMC, and not running off of an SD Card.
My NC CM10 ROM is installed on EEMC, not SD. Should I forget about speed and smoothness on ANY CM9 and CM10 and go back to a phone OS on a tablet, CM7.2, as suggested?
Should I consider ICS instead JB hoping to get a better result? CM9 instead of CM10?
Sent from my NookColor using Tapatalk 2
I would forget about cm9, and cm10 is still in the works(but making progress). So if your looking for the most stable and smooth ROM, I would go with MiRaGe cm7.2, at least until cm10 has got a stable ROM. Those guys have tweeked that mirage ROM to the point of perfection.lol

Just try the various ones and see what suits your needs the best. Everyone has differing opinions of the various ROMs based on their particular hardware, setups, expectations, experience and the particular apps used.
Only you can decide. It is easy to give them all a try. CM10 and Paranoid Android will perform similarly since PA is based on CM10.. so you don;t have to try both to get a performance feel.
This was in the CM 10 general thread:
soobah said:
Thanks to several people on these forums I now have the Nook color running CM10 fairly responsively, to the point where it doesn't feel all that different to the Nexus7. Huge kudos to the devs on that!
I hope these steps can help others get theirs in the same state. I am using EMMC boot. YMMV so do a backup first.
Firstly, I was having trouble with FC and really bad performance, I traced the issue to something installed on the SDcard (didn't happen if booting with SDcard removed), so I wiped the SDcard, problem fixed.
When installing via clockworkmod (3.2.0.1), I wiped data (aka factory reset), wiped cache partition, (under advanced) wiped dalvik cache. I did not do fix permissions but some suggest that also helped them, pretty sure you need to do that after install though and I've not gotten around to a reboot yet)
1. Settings->performance->interactive
This seems to be the biggest improvement overall. I am wildly speculating that the nook is too laggy at adjusting clock speed in 'on demand' and that is where a fair bit of the sluggishness comes from. I did run with 'Performance' for a while and that is better, and interstingly I didn't find the battery life too bad at all really, so that could be an option for some (I do turn off wifi when not using and that helps heaps with battery).
2. Settings->Performance->I/O scheduler->BFQ (YMMV but worth playing with)
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=22134559&postcount=4
3. System Tuner app from the Play store https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=ccc71.pmw
Tweaks->Sysctl->Recommended
OOM (scroll right past memory top line)->Presets->aggressive
I'm on the Nov13 build atm, not feeling like I need to try any later nightly but I might for interest.

It makes the nook run much faster and it has a much better user interface than CM 7
Also run the unofficial build that has a few tweaks that make the nook seem faster with GPU intensive tasks.
i still think the cm10 rom, while experimental, is still the best rom, cm7.2 is old software, it was good at the time, but android4. and 4.1 have alot of enhancements as far as speed, but try 7.2 and compare it. the only person that can tell you what the best rom is, is you.

Thank you, as always!
CM10 might be the best ROM on the paper, due to JB's enchantments over GB. However, this particular CM10 is just slow on NC. Basic use, like navigating through system options, settings, menus -- has a lag (w/o any apps). All the time, every time. I must say I didn't try last power settings your recommended on the previous page, since I gave a try to CM 7.2 (Mirage).
CM 7.2 makes NC responsive and fast. (It won't play HD videos in YouTube, only "normal", that's the only thing I noticed so far.)
Regarding CM10, I can give it a try once again if/when becomes faster. Do you think the power settings you gave me most recently would really boost it? I can flash it again. Or CM9 (ICS), I'm following that one as well. Until then, I don't think it's the matter of choice. After all, we all have the same HW here (even though two versions of NC have some differences, but not in speed).
Lastly, I'm a newbie and I can be very wrong.
I have tested all of them, also various nightlies.And although CM10 looks prettier and have better "menu" options (no need to mount sd card when connecting to PC for example), 7.2 is still the fastest rom on Nook Color.

Thanks for your reply! Great you've tested more ROMs so you're experienced with different versions, their benefits and problems.
Right now, I'm on CM 7.2 (Mirage) and like it, fast and smooth enough.
- What do you think about HoneyComb (Android 3) for Nook? If not, than only HC theme would be enough.
- Have you tried power options settings regarding CM10, discussed in this thread?
- What other ROMs except CM 7.2 (Mirage) are worth of exploring? CM9 nightly?
- How about making a dual boot, so I would have a working CM 7.2 on one, and experimental ROMs on second boot (CM9, CM10). Is that safe? Should I be aware of possible issues? I've never done this, but I saw a thread on that here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=17834691
Thanks a lot!
Also give v6 Supercharger a try for all ROMs. And, SD Speed Increase with a 2048 heap if you are on 7.2.

there were some tweaks in the thread (don't ask I cannot remember where...) that helped make CM10 very usable. Before that I was using MC-ROM...
For me it is a toss-up: either CM10-12/17/12 nightlie or stock B&N 1.4.3, rooted with ManualNooter 5.8.20.
I believe stock/MN is much faster and more reliable.
CM10 is feature rich, slighly slower, and the mail app is far better than stock B&N.
Hey, do both on emmc.
Install MN by following the instructions in the OP here.
Setup your NC for dual boot by following the instructions here.
And Install CM10 12/17/12 and the correct Gapps.
Personally, my NC has stock B&N 1.4.3 rooted with ManualNooter 5.8.20 on the alternate emmc partition and CM 10-nightlie 12/17/12 on primary. Then I can share the uSD card for data.

When I try to install this rom, I get stuck on a bootloop. After several minutes I manually restart my tablet, the set up menu pops up. The navigation bar is on the right side of the screen instead of it being below and all you see is a really small "back" button. Once I finish setting up, the tablet starts to lag and isn't usable. Anyone out there experiencing this issue & can I get a possible fix? I really enjoy this rom on my phone but it's frustrating that I can't seem to get it to work on my tablet. Any help would be great.

I don't think he can, there is a minimum post count to post in dev forum.
thefnshow66, I had this issue as well, I even wiped everything beforehand. I would wait for 2.9 if you really want to run Liquid. In the meantime Purity AOSP, Buttered Manta AOKP from mrRobinson, and Carbon ROM CM are the best ones to try depending on which flavor suits you best. Trinity and KTManta are the best kernels to use. (I prefer Trinity)
I have been using Liquid Roms since my OG DROID and they were always solid, but their quality control for Manta has been somewhat lackluster, last couple builds had broken bluetooth, and this one has some serious SystemUI issues.

I don't think he can, there is a minimum post count to post in dev forum.
thefnshow66, I had this issue as well, I even wiped everything beforehand. I would wait for 2.9 if you really want to run Liquid. In the meantime Purity AOSP, Buttered Manta AOKP from mrRobinson, and Carbon ROM CM are the best ones to try depending on which flavor suits you best. Trinity and KTManta are the best kernels to use. (I prefer Trinity)
I have been using Liquid Roms since my OG DROID and they were always solid, but their quality control for Manta has been somewhat lackluster, last couple builds had broken bluetooth, and this one has some serious SystemUI issues.

thanks for the reply. Every Rom I've tried has had some issue. I really like rootbox but I noticed that the menu button doesn't work for me. Buttered Manta AOKP is the closest Rom I've found that works great but it still doesn't halo added to it yet. I really liked that liquid smooth ran with Nova Launcher right away and it has halo now but the sysem UI after 2.5 sucked. I tried contacting the developer over twitter and I've gotten no reply. I might have to try Carbon.

Carbon's great, but I don't think it has HALO (unless I've missed an OTA or something, which granted is 100% possible). In any event, you may well get enough posts responding to this thread to go post in the Liquid thread.
Personally, though, if you can take Carbon, I'd run with that. It's been much kinder to me than Liquid, which was my daily driver for a long time on my Galaxy Nexus (and then my Nexus 7/Nexus 10 consequently).
