Hello,
I want to boot SD ROM with MGLDR Boot AD SD and after some tests only too ROMS work.
[SD] BOYPPC_SHIFTPDA GINGER 2.3.4 Sense.s V9 (14.May) freezes always on lockscreen
[SD.Magldr] isaiah12345 v3.2 200 haven't mobile data (APNs dont work)
Others ROMS haven't data.img but system.ext2.
fot this ROMS, I've found any informations like "modify system.ext2 or rootfs.img" but i haven't init.rc in bin directory or haven't the line to modify.
What is the most simple way to successfull work the SD ROMs ?
Thanks a lot
Everytime you want to try a new rom, format the sdcard first (quick format)
If the new rom doesn't include the data.img, it will created by itself on the first boot. The first boot will always take longer times to boot (probably around ~30 mins), the second boot and after will be around ~5 mins.
if you are booting in magldr sometimes you have to edit the startup.txt. for magldr it is nand_boot=1. and if you have more than one build edit the path like this rel_path=what you name it. hope this helps.

for BOYPPC_SHIFTPDA: you have to download the special rootfs.img, the Boot MAGRLD. and than like [email protected] said "you have to edit the startup.txt. for magldr it is nand_boot=1"
if i understand,
- if there is a data.img, i just boot AD SD whith nand_boot=1 and rootfs.img modified if needed,
- if there is not data.img (system.ext2 ROMS), i wait around 30minutes after boot AD SD whith nand_boot=1 and rootfs.img modified if needed.
A last question, i've test to copy a data.img in a folder whith system.ext2 file and the boot AD SD boot my nand ROM bootscreen and freeze and my nand ROM don't boot no more (thanks recovery backup ^^), why ?
i wiil note this thread resume when my test will be finish.
Thanks a lot for everyone

alot of sd builds will have either folders saying roof.img-winmo or roof.img-magldr use the right one or sd or magldr. sd being winmo and magldr self exp. and if it is not stated in the thread that there is more items needed, than just edit like stated before.
thnaks for answers,
"a lot" ? i've found two and the others with systeme.ext2 i've nothing else.
i've test with your informations and fort wo ROMS with system.ext2 and that don't find any modified files the result is the same : the Boot AD SD boot finally on my NAND build and crash it.
i will test the others with modified files and give feedback
btw, This is teh dev forum, not the Q&A forum.
The only topics that should be in here are from devs posting their work, not from general users like you and I.

Check if your Android Partition (FAT 32) is set to Primary and not Logical.
Use "EASEUS Partition Master" or "Minitool partition wizard" to change partition type.

Remember: this is NOT final. It may not even install. It may eat your device. IT the clown may come after you... I can't really do much about that...
Before anyone gets upset about a -KANG build released, it's okay, I have permission from the devs, since now all the source is publicly buildable.
If something bad happens, don't blame me, don't blame anyone. Not even your dog.
Be careful: to get back to anything relatively stock, you'd need to use my bootable SD (non EXT4) to apply uninstallclockwork.zip, then format /system, /data, and /cache from the non EXT4 card. Reboot and the device should bootloop 8 times before deciding it's useless and begins to restore the factory.zip.
That should leave you with a completely stock NookColor.
I think.
To install: boot from the ext4 cwm from this thread, format /data and /cache, then install this zip. Done.
DO NOT post here questions about this build. This thread is for the Clockwork card only...

Usage notes after 20 minutes of use:
* Feels very snappy.
* Wifi, sound work.
* Switch to the Sliding Tab lockscreen style at Settings > CyanogenMod settings > Lockscreen > Style Options > Lockscreen style. Defaults to Revamped Rotary which doesn't scale right.
* Google apps work. Install from http://wiki.cyanogenmod.com/index.php?title=Latest_Version/Google_Apps (go to the bottom, CyanogenMod 7 part of the table). Market doesn't show anything under My Apps, but searching does find most of my purchased apps. Some apps don't show up (e.g. ADW Launcher Ex) - I am guessing this is because of the device signature.
* Menu, back buttons in the status bar work great so far.
* Too early to say much about battery other than it doesn't drain the way HCv4 did.

Noob questioning
Sorry but you said "usual instructions are the usual"
So how would I go about making a bootable SD card for CM7?
and what's the buildenv file for?
no bootable sd for CM7, its an emmc rom only.
Nook Color CM7 install instructions
There are a couple of ways to install Cyanogen on your Nook Color. Either of these work fine. I use the ROM Manager approach so I that I don't have to slide out the microSD on every reboot.
Install the recovery using ROM Manager from the Market. You need to root using http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1054027 first.
Create a bootable recovery SD, boot from it and install Cyanogen.
Step by step instructions for installing Cyanogen using ROM Manager. Up to date as of 2011-10-02:
Follow the instructions at http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1054027 to root your Nook Color and install the Market.
Using the Market app install ROM Manager.
Launch ROM Manager, install the recovery.
Download the flashable CM7 zip of your choice. I recommend the CM7 nightly from: The CM7 nightly builds.
Download the google apps from one of the links at http://wiki.cyanogenmod.com/index.php?title=Latest_Version/Google_Apps
Copy the cm7 zip, the uBoot .zip and the google apps zip to your SD card.
Use the reboot to recovery option in ROM Manager.
Flash from .zip the cm7 zip and the google apps zip.
Reboot.
Step by step instructions for creating a bootable recovery SD and using it to install CM7. Up to date as of 2011-10-02:
Download the 3.2.0.1 bootable SD recovery image from http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=14462733&postcount=120.
Extract the .img from the archive
Burn the recovery img to an SD card as explained at http://nookdevs.com/NookColor_Rooting#Steps
Download the flashable CM7 zip of your choice. I recommend the CM7 nightly from: The CM7 nightly builds.
Download the google apps from one of the links at http://wiki.cyanogenmod.com/index.php?title=Latest_Version/Google_Apps
Copy the cm7 zip, the uBoot .zip and the google apps zip to your SD card you created.
Unmount the SD card from your PC, insert it into your nook color.
Reboot your Nook Color. It should boot into the SD card recovery. Should read version 3.2.0.1.
Under mounts Format /system, /data, cache. Do not format /boot.
Flash from .zip the cm7 zip and the google apps zip.
Remove the SD card.
Reboot your Nook Color.
Enjoy CM7.
I keep this microSD in my NookColor all the time. When I reboot I remove it just long enough for the uBoot screen to show (Read Forever or the Cyanogen Mod logo) and then put it back in.
Downloads sometimes get corrupted. Verify md5 checksums where possible. Redownload if you have a problem when md5 checksums are not provided.
To be able to use the Netflix app, modify your build.prop to make the device claim it's an HTC Vision.
just flashed this and so far so good. the lockscreen was a little wonky on reboot (it wasn't properly sized and it took a few tries to get the rotary unlock to work.) I might need to futz around with it though.
i was successfully able to boot into CWM, wifi works great, i'm about to flash gapps and play around a bit more.
what can i say: it's CM7! this just made my day and is about to make me late for a business meeting!
▐▄▀▄▀▌ TUTORIAL CWM roms are the way to go right now!!!
THIS IS A TUTORIAL TO GET CWM ROMS UP AND RUNNING ON UR RHODIUM
SO i felt completely compelled to share my amazing experience and results with my CWM rom!!!!
i almost always try to keep the development process here away from other sites
if you want a REALLY GOOD WORKING version of android on your device without trying NAND ... follow my instructions...
first off i have a ATT Tilt 2 i have been using with this..
to find anything you need to know on android for our phones go HERE
(Neopeek site)
any size card should do for runing CWM builds,,, i however am runnig an 8gb class 4 sdhc and all is well
MY recommended partition sizes... (i set 300mb as all my EXT2 partitions just to make calculating it easier...)
(primary) FAT32 - storage for music videos pics etc... rest of space
(primary) EXT2 - 200-300mb (system) holds rom build... none are over 250mb
(primary) EXT2 - 200-300mb (data) data for android... i believe is the space for app install... so bigger is better..
(primary) EXT2 - 50-100mb (cache) like ram sorta...
with these sizes... worryin about the size of the rom will not matter ..
look on the site link i posted above on how to install and use CWM if you havent before... (dont worry newbs... its easier then everyone makes it seem...)
with CWM builds the standard Gapps are not included...
THIS SITE is the repository to go to... i am using "gapps-hdpi-20101114-signed.zip" but feel free to try others to see if they load...
this is the the most frustrating part of CWM, finding GAPPS that install...
u install them the same way you do a rom... by installing the zip from the sd card...
i do recommend installing gapps zip after you have already installed the rom and booted and restarted android a couple of times
otherwise i recommend THIS ROM as it is the one i use... i know it is only Froyo but it has a themed gingerbread taskbar with black pull down so it still looks nice!!!
lastly
((((technically test kernel.. so not recommended!!... but proven to fix screen not coming on problem...))))
for you crazy tester ppl waiting for the day you brick your phone(im totally kidding dont worry newbs) i use the WIS-Tilt2 kernel the newer test one to be specific...
GO HERE
With this kernel my device goes in to deep sleep with the GReen light and wakes up perfect every time!!!!!
the zip is just modules package and a zImage.. just have to replace and boot...
WARNING... when i updated with the working kernel it looked like it wasnt going to work.. didnt seem to be anywhere enough scrolling text and the boot animation barely played and then the screen went black... i played around with the buttons and found the device to be opperating with out the screen on i kept pressing buttons and the screen finally woke up!!!! be patient!!!! after that it worked perfectly everytime...
other tips... for people experiencing wifi unable to scan problem ..
use the Wifi-nvram.txt trick look it up in xda... once command is entered no need to reboot just turn on wifi and connect!!!
i hope that this has been helpful i couldnt find any where that had all the tips and tutorial in one place to get CWM up and running at least once... had to do it trial and error.. hope my hard work will help you newbs out!!! hahaha

Here is the CMW version of the normal FRX06 by arrrghhh. Credits to arrrghhh for the build and to preston74 for making it ready for CMW.
G-apps are already included in this build so you don't have to flash them separate.

Yes you are doing a good job
I first made a cmw version of frx06 without gapps, but argghhh told me it was ok if I include the gapps, so I did
You may also integrate my link in your first post, then I'll delete my post.
Forgive me here... I am new to the CWM builds. If I have a CWM build on an SD card, with the appropriate ex2 partitions and all, can I use CWM to put on a different build? That would be a whole lot easier than having to reformat and start over...
Well if you run in to any problems the support here is going to be limited.
On the other hand if you use XDAndroid the support here is maximal.
For testing and dev reasons, I will stay with my current build. I quite like my bluetooth.
For any beginners I would very much recommend that you use 'standard' (see intro to android sticky). Well, at least until you are confident you don't need to be hand-guided through this and know what to do if something goes wrong.

It actually is pretty easy - you can backup your current system & data partitions, and throw a new build on - if you don't like it, wipe and revert to the backup.
The only problem is if you have CWM installed, other 'normal' (looped mount) builds will not work - the rootfs will see the partitions and think you want to run from partitions - of course, this results in a failure to boot... I like having many builds on my card at one time so I can flip between them - this also makes testing a heckuva lot easier, so heads up folks!
Nice tutorial and thanks for putting my build in it,but you should put proper credits as Neopeek(and his team) made cwm and i made the build you linked(you can avoid doing this)
And it's gingerbread like themed and the theme name is minimal green..
You can avoid doing 300 mb system as almost all the builds are less than 100 mb,so doing it 150mb is good
CWM and loopmounted builds can co-exist.

To avoid this you can just add the "no_partitions" (without the quotes) switch to your cmdline on your startup.txt of the loopmounted build and you should be good to go.
It may depend on your rootfs, but I'm using F22's rootfs and it works like a charm.
i'm trying cwm with frx6 and it keep saying fail rootfs., what am i doing wrong?
Do you followed the tutorial on how to set up your sd-card for cmw? I think you are using a wrong rootfs. As far as I know you need the rootsf from neopeek's cmw.

I think you are choosing the wrong item in cmw, you need to choose 'Install zip from sd-cart' and then 'choose zip from sdcard'. Don't choose 'apply sdcart/update.zip' or something like that.
And if that doesn't work, maybe try another build. There is a (really small, because I tested it myself) option that the frx06 cmw build doens't work well.

No thats not it. i did just just what u are saying. I even tried the CherryPieV3 and it still installation aborted. I'm using CWM 1.8 could that be the problem
If you already have CWM files on your phone, then do not just install the CherryPieV3.zip file. You must extract the zip file which has another zip file inside that you should use to install in CWM.

Yes, you´re right. But he said that he also tried frx06, and that doesn´t worked for him too, and with the frx06.zip bundle, you don´t need to extract it first (if i'm right ;p)

I tried to install your CMW version of he Arrghhh FRX06 build but it fails on installing.
I have followed all the steps closely but still can't get it installed.
In the CWM tool when I choose Install zip from SD card and then choosing the FRX06 update the install process starts and within a few seconds aborts.
This is what I see on my screen:

Hello you DualBooters and Triplebooters out there!
SDCacheMount for SD-Roms
Well, this idea came to me because many users of my triple-boot SD were getting tired of the rebuilding of system-cache when every time they had to switch between roms. What I have here is a small script that will install to /system/etc/init.d The script will run at boot time and create a 100mb .img file to be used for /cache. This way each rom will have its own dedicated /cache partition so to say. This will also benefit anybody that dualboots (eg. EMMC / SD-Rom). I've prepped two different versions. One for my triplebooters out there and the other for anyone running a rom off an SD card.
Things to note:
-This will dd a 100mb .img file to your /sdcard partition of your sd-rom on first boot. What this means is that before the system progresses any further the img file needs to be created so that the /system can use it as the /cache partition.
-It will sit at a black screen for up to 1 minute possibly. So please be patient!!!
-The dd'ing of the .img only happens on first boot. So once the cache .img is created. Boot time will be normal on successive boots.
-Make sure you have enough space on the /sdcard partition of your sd-rom.
-So for Dualbooters you will need at least 100mb free
-For Triplebooters you will need at least 200mb free
-Now you can switch between EMMC roms and SD roms without having to wait for /cache to rebuild every single time.

Great job! gonna have a try on this
So the main advantage of this script is smaller booting time?
And this is the case when you switch Roms only between emmc and sd or also 2 different roms from same sd?

The advantage of the script is that each AOSP will have its own dedicated cache and not all be utilizing the same space for all the cache.

The most obvious effect is that booting between the various ROM's is seamless (except for the minimal wait at the blank screen) and fast. It makes switching between the AOSP's very easy. The less obvious, behind the scenes effect is as Dizzy describes.
It should be noted that if you flash an updated or newer ROM, you will also need to reflash the SDcacheMount.zip.

Yes correct, thank you. I'll make note of that in the OP. Also note that once the .img cache is created, although you have to reflash the SDCacheMount after flashing a new rom. It won't have to create a new .img. The script will detect if one exist already and if so, proceed to boot. But if you don't flash the SDCacheMount right after flashing the new ROM. /cache will default back to /emmc

There are two versions, one with original ACA .35 kernel which only works when booting from magldr, and the other with tytung's r16 which boots from both haret (wm6.5) and magldr.

To change DPI edit the line ro.sf.lcd.density=160 in /system/build.prop to whatever value using root enabled file explorer and reboot, but you may get market issues at custom DPIs (HD2 default 240), if problem try clearing Market cache (thanks zyclone)

yes, it plays simpson's movie trailer 720p with native video player from magldr (aca kernel), haven't tried it with r16 kernel.
Edit; also works using r16 kernel from magldr

Boot Problem.
Hi at all,
today I installed ACA NativeSD on partition EXT4 into my sd card. I copy and paste the 2, zImage & intrid file which I fund in NativeSD/ACA folder, into root of my sd card. I rebooted and when I choose Boot AS SD in MAGLDR the ROM do not boot.
What I do wrong?

If you used 4ext recovery to install, you should have a folder called NativeSD on your fat32 partition, point ad sd to this folder, it should have zimage and initrd in it already.

yes, I have it and the first time I didn't copy any file and the android did not boot anyway.
How point AD SD to this folder? Probably I miss this part...
Tha way I did is to choose option 2.Boot AD SD. Nothing else.

10 services > 1. bootsettings > 3.ad sd dir > NativeSD

try re-starting magldr.
Does the nativeSD folder show up on pc?
Make a full backup of your sd card and format it according to the native-SD tutorial.
Then format the ext4 partition from recovery and reflash the rom.
You should be fine if you follow letter by tutorial the guide for flashing native-SD roms.
Hi people. I've been browsing a lot lately and Reading about roms, kernel, and other stuff related to customization of Android devices. I consider myself enough tech-savvy to understand technical things about hardware on this devices but when it comes to all the thing related to flashing roms and kernels and related things i have no clue of what you're talking about, lol.
However, I'm really interested on "installing" Cyanogenmod 10 on my Galaxy Player 4 just to see what happens and how flashing roms feels like, so i can try different roms later and enhance my device. But no matter how hard I try to find a tutorial about how to begin from total stock (as the device comes from the store) haven't been lucky finding one. As far as I know the first step is flashing a new kernet with CWM, so then i can flash the roms. But I'm stuck on Step One :s
So, if there's a link you can post here to help begin with this flashing trend it'd be great. Or if you can redact a "custom" tutorial for me, a total programming noob but interested as hell about modifying my GP4 that would be a thousand times better.
Also, feel free to recommend me kernels or roms or whatever you feel i could use
Thanks!!!
PD: not native english speaker
I just finished doing this exact thing myself, so its fresh in my mind First, BACK UP!! there are different methods with varying degrees of how much they back up, search the forum for them. Definitely backup the efs. Instructions are in the first post for the CM10 ROM. Then, I began by flashing a custom kernel using Odin. Instructions on how to do this can be found in the Tips and Tricks section of this post:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=27615927
Kernels can also be found in the appropriate section of that post. Make sure you get one for your device. All of them include CWM (ClockworkMod) which is what you need to easily flash a full ROM. The kernel won't actually effect your current operating system accept to maybe improve performance.
Next, download the ROM file(s) onto your device. ROMs are also in the above post. Again, make sure you get one for your device. Read the instructions in the ROM thread on how exactly to flash them, but the general procedure is to boot into CWM by holding some set of buttons during start up (probably power + volume up) and navigate the CWM menu to flash the ROM.

Now a question... When you tell me to make a backup, what exactly should I backup and with what program or app? Installed Titanium BAckup app and all i see is the option to backup individual apps. I expected to find something like "total backup of the device" or a similar thing that bacups the whole thing...
please tell me what to use and what to do
thanks a lot again

Ok i downloaded both Odin and the Terra Silent kernel. Samsung kies is already installed so Odin is detecting my galaxy player.
But the terra silent kernel is a zip file, if i extract it the extracted file has no extension, only says zlimage and i have no idea what it is. Then, when I open Odin, there are the next options:
PIT
BOOTLOADER
PDA
PHONE
CSC
where should i upload the zlimage?

That's because you're suppose to flash it via CWM. If it's a tar file, you flash it via Odin. And you're not suppose to extract it, lol.

Is Terra Silent compatible with CM10??? Reading the thread of Terra Silent a user made a comment on this asking the developer (i guess) to make Terra Silent compatible with CM10.... :s
ok now i have some problems...
got to flash the Terra Silent Kernel. After rebooting everything was ok. Installed Rom Manager in order to install CWM. Rom Manager installed CMW and then came back to main menu. There was an option for creating a copy of the stock rom, thought it wolud be a good idea to make a copy. When i did it, phone went black and then reboted. after rebooting came back to the lock screen but changed language (spanish -> english). Algo noticed there was missing the google search bar. When entered to the apps menu there were a lot of icons of the android robot with an SD card symbol over. When clicked them it says that the apps are not installed on the system.
installed rom manager again, and went to recovery boot. flashed both cm9 and cm 10 included in the cm 10 thread. Now my playr is stuck in the recovery screen...
what do i do?

You internal SD card is probably switched for the external.
Find "vold.fstab. (system/etc)" open it, and change "/mnt/sdcard/sdcard1" to "/mnt/sdcard/sdcard0."

Wait, before doing any changes like this, have you tried on going mnt/emmc or storage/sdcard1? @TheKryptonite he have a 4.0 and the sdcard is working without changing the paths.

I did this change, switched numbers and now i can see the files on the sd card. Only that before flashing CM 10 the access to the sd card was through a folder calles "externa sd", now the sd card files and folders are scattered on the home screen of any file explorer i acess the sd card with. It's not a big ideal but i dont like it.
When i edited the file you told me there was a 1 after where now says sdcard 1. Shoud that number be erased or better keep it?
