Chameleon OS.......Updated. - Nook Color Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I'm seeing this on goo with very current nightlies for encore. Their web site doesn't say anything about the NC.
I know what this ROM is all about, but does anyone know anything about it for our device?

Well, no one seemed to know about this ROM, so I flashed and installed it.
Runs very, very smoothly!!!

I just stumbled across it on goo. Under "browse compatible ROMs". I have seen threads in the N7 and Original Note but nothing about the Nook.....doesn't even show on their web site.

I wanted to post in the other more active ChameleonOS NK thread here, but I couldn't because it's in the developer's section (I don't have enough posts yet). Anyway, I noticed that you posted a bunch of times in the other thread and was wondering what version of this ROM are you running? There were a few links to newer versions in that thread; newer than what's up on GOO. Have you tried any of them? There really wasn't any feedback posted about them either. The only real issue I've had is that I get random error messages saying, "Unfortunately, ChaOS Launcher has stopped". Don't know if a newer version would clear that up or I'm having some other issue. Great ROM other than that. It seems nice a clean, optimized for the NK. And it doesn't seem like some half baked, slightly modified phone OS with a bunch of extra parts like some of the ROMs floating around are. One thing I did have issues with (I noticed a few others were saying the same thing in the other thread) was getting Netflix to work right. I found others saying that you need Netflix version 1.8.1 for Nook Colors using a different ROM so I gave that a whirl and it worked. Also got Hulu+ working too. The version on Google Play says that it isn't compatible with the hardware, but downloading it through the Amazon App Store did the trick. Thanks in advance for any input.

Right now I'm running Gummy Rom....it's extremely smooth but without the customization of the Chemeleon Rom. Also, the Nook Color has been dropped as an official device by Chameleon.

Thanks for pointing me towards the Gummy ROM, I may give that a try soon (especially if they get a KitKat version of it going for the NC). Unfortunately I saw your response a little late and went with CM10.2 instead. It's been running fine for a while now but I do have one annoyance; I hate that app data goes right to the SD card. And there doesn't seem to be a practical way to have apps use the internal storage for that or the secondary partition. I feel that this would slow the Nook down a little and most importantly this doesn't really allow the option for swapping SD cards with different media on them viable. Does Gummy or any other ROMs have that same drawback?

If you look at my NC Tips thread linked in my signature and read item A16, you will see there is an easy way to swap internal and external SDs. That way apps put their data on internal instead of external.

With gb miui, that only worked for one or two downloads, then the behavior would return.
Not sure which rom the op is running, but that was the case with some gb roms. Luckily, I've long since upgraded to ics and no longer have that issue.
Same here but it gets annoying having to clear data a few times a day

I'm also having problems with Instacrap, specifically the hipster talent results. Every time I try to edit a photo it turns out looking like a polaroid or a hemorrhoid. I keep hearing iprone users say they deleted photoshop and turned their real cameras into lamps and ashtrays, but I must be missing something. Is the android version different? I've noticed better results when I ran out of toilet paper and had to use people magazine to wipe! Maybe I could write an app that smears poop on photos...
Anybody have trouble posting pics? Mines keep saying its too small and I know that's not the case because I have my resolution up to the highest.

I feel the same way...personally I can't see why everyone is getting all frothy over an app that makes pictures that look like they came from cameras that need to be thrown away.
Not only that but it's a 12MB install!

it isn't about the filters, there are several Android apps with much better filters and more variety. Instagram is about the built-in community.

however
started looking at a few things in details for example the imei
there are a few websites where you can query your imei and see what output it gets
mine showed some other brand and model of phone
leading me to believe my phone is one of those cheap replicas
and yet the look and feel and performance seems legit

On the side note, this occurs in latest stable Chrome, latest dev build chrome, as well as latest stable FireFox.

[Q] Peel Working on Custom Rom

Hey guys I don't know if its been addressed somewhere else but I can't get peel to work on any custom rom I've installed besides the time when i rooted the tab and had the stock rom. Is there anyway to get the ir blaster to work on a custom rom or any custom jelly bean rom that actually has the ir blaster working?
well it has been covered, and is in the OP of just about EVERY custom ROM, IR BLASTER DOES NOT WORK ON CYANOGEN OR AOKP.
but all is not lost there are a select few custom ROMs based on the STOCK ROM that have working IR blaster, for the 7" model do a search for Romswell (4.0.4 ICS) or Tab2Lite (4.1.1 JB) and I believe there is another. Don't know what your choices are for the 10.1 model (if that is what you have, YOU DIDN'T SPECIFY).
I figured just thought I'd ask. another question you might be able to help me with adfree app doesn't work either says that the app is too old but I download it straight from the market do I don't know why....at the moment I'm using a host file I downloaded online and seems to be working fine but wanted to know why adfree doesn't work,I know there is other apps but I've always used adfree on my phones and I guess I stick to what I know.Lol

You can try sd maid which has a system cleaner. Or change the files permissions if you are worried about it transmitting data. But I wouldn't mess with it too much until you figure out what it is.

You guys could wipe your sdcard with twrp if you are worried, but back up all your wanted sdcard data to a computer first. And then put it back on right after. I do that with my Nexus 7 sometime. Not sure if it is the same process on Nex4. It may not be necessary, not sure.
