Hi,
I´m writing this post to notify that there is a new official update from toshiba.
I cannot give more information, because my folio is in SAT, but the version number might be "18/02/2011 (2.2.5.0131)". I have no info about changes yet, but I´ve red something about preparation for the new flash player and more utilities.
My source:
htcmania.com/showthread.php?p=1874046&posted=1#post1874046
(Sorry, I can´t still post urls, you may add the usual www to check the adress)
Maybe we have new materials for our favourite mods (for me, Folionotion and foliomod, I can´t decide).
Any additional info will be wellcome, thanks

Is there support to market place?
Will we have it in mods ???
I have installed it.
It seems to be more performance in 3D games.
Flash plugin preinstaled, and it can run the flash animation in Toshiba's web page .
It solves some bug about brong accelerometer axis in some games.
But no Android Market, only the same *sigh* Toshiba Market.
The question is whether we can install FolioMod on top of this update or not. For me,it's not worth updating this without DexterMod, which is already very good imo

if you wantt custom mods, you avoid the update!!!!
THIS UPDATE WILL BLOCK YOUR UPDATE OPTIONS, AND BYE BYE CUSTOM ROMS
I confirm that the root of 5.0131 is ok yessssssss !
I'm guessing this updates the recovery kernel, and the recovery kernel is the only place that the recovery kernel is visible from to write? So root access is not enough for a simple way of updating the whole OS partition.

they might have blocked it on the new update as well, making it really hard to get revert.. but on previous editions you can easily write a new recovery.
the partition is visible at partition 7, but this might have changed.
i have not had the luxury to look at the actual update, so what is inside, is for me to find out.. then we get all the nasty details.
ok guys... anyone having installed this update pls kindly report the following:
1. stability status
(crashes freezez sod)
2. software issue - can sideloaded applications be installed and used?
3. root ability ?
4. 3d games like dangeon defenders working ?
5. custom flashing ability?

5 custom flashing ability yes using adb to instal first the old kernel
basicly the tablets works has it was ment to be i think that toshiba might even suprise everyone by realeasing honeycomb for this tablet in future
When I go to Toshiba Service Station, there is no update available(using Dexters wonderful foliomod). How do I get to see it and if I want to install how do I keep all the wonderful stuff on it already. This is my wifes and not mine so she will get pissed off if she loses everything on it again?
Thanks.

unless it got market, gmail and syncing support, its not like its meant to be yet..
and honeycomb will not appear as display is just 1024x600, so no chance of a google certification for folio100 here, same as with gapps support. so forgot toshiba solving that..
Saw people got honeycomb running on nook color with the same resolution screen... no certification does not mean that is not possible...so we still can have our fingers crossed on that

Just read about the new update and the issues with it. I have my Folio sent in for repair and they always update to the latest firmware before sending back to customer, so it looks like im in deep ****. I know how to use adb and fastboot, use them all the time on my desire hd and my VEGA. Maybe someone could write a good guide on how to flash this old recovery and which of all the rooting procedures that works with the new firmware. I also dont know how to get Folio in fastboot. But if we have a working root we can flash the old recovery or clockwork recovery, is that right? Because if not i might as well throw it away. No use in trying to sell it, no one will buy a useless tablet anyways. HOPING FOR A GUIDE CALLED: HOW TO RESTORE YOUR FOLIO WITH FLASHABLE RECOVERY

I have removed all the files from this post and I encourage everyone to migrate to DizzyDen's superior solution. If for some reason you are unable to use Dizzy's tool you can PM DizzyDen or myself (Martian21) and one of us should be able to get you want you need.
********************************************************************************
[Original Thread]
I have seen several threads regarding this topic and thought I'd try to consolidate as much as I can in one place.
Credit for the original IMEI work goes to mthe0ry His original thread is here.
Because the NOOK Color is not a phone it does not have an IMEI number. This is why some apps that check for an IMEI number do not work on the NOOK.
Thanks to the work of mthe0ry and now DizzyDen it is possible to modify the framework.jar file in order to create a fake IMEI number on the NOOK Color. Doing so will allow programs such as Swype Beta, the free version of the XDA app, HBO GO, and the Xfinity app to work on the NOOK Color.
Unfortunately you need to have a framework.jar file that matches the ROM you are running as changes to the framework between ROMs can (and probably will) cause problems.
[See DizzyDen's thread for the IMEI generator tool]
*** This is mostly obsolete now that Dizzy's tool handles replacing the framework.jar file and backs up your original file - but I will leave it here just in case it is still useful to someone. ***
Installation:
You will need a file manager with Root access such as Root Explorer.
Download the framework.jar file for your Rom.
Unzip the file and transfer the framework.jar file to your NOOK Color.
Navigate to /System/framework using Root Explorer.
Mount the /System/framework folder R/W.
Rename the original framework.jar to framework.jar.bak.
Using Root Explorer, copy the new framwork.jar file.
Paste the modified framework.jar into /System/framework.
Long press the newly copied framework.jar and select "Permissions".
Change the permissions to match framework.jar.bak [rw-r--r--].
Mount the /System/framework folder R/O.
I recommend you reboot your NOOK although resetting the launcher may be enough.
For those that used my original files or the ones from mthe0ry, the original IMEI used in those files is "12-34567-89012-45". If you wish to continue using this IMEI number [NOT RECOMMENDED] you can manually enter it into Dizzy's tool.

I know that nightly 78 was the last nightly that runs on .29 kernel all the new nightlys 80,82,83 and 84 need uboot 1.2 and .32 kernel. I have read that some people have been experiencing problems on these builts. Also being that .32 kernel is still label beta i would like to ask you if you could please make a framework for nightly 78. I have attached the framework file from my nightly 78. Thank you
Finally was able to reboot after copying framework82. Was able to sign in but have yet to play a movie. I get stuck in the spinning circle.

I did a total wipe, stock 1.2 install, then a second total wipe before n82. I then added the modded framework and HBO GO worked really well! But, after adding Dal's 5/13 OC, I then got the spinning circle problem you describe.
I tried re-flashing just n83 to fix it (without Dal's OC), and re-installing the modded framework, but the spinning circle problem remains.
I can't say for sure that the OC kernel broke it -- it could be one of a dozen apps I installed? -- but it's certainly the leading culprit in my case. The 5/13 OC kernel also appeared to break a few of my other apps as well (360 Live failed too, but started working again after I returned to vanilla n83).
I'm going to start the entire process over again tonight to try and narrow down the problem...
I have the 5/13 OC installed but HBO GO is now working on my Nook. Just need to uninstall and reinstall HBO GO. Worked like a charm for me.

I do appreciate your warning (and, as always, all your hard work), but Dal came out and stated plainly that an IMEI solution would not get added to cm7 builds, so the rest of us took his word for it and had to solve the problem some other way.
Now, if you're saying that the solution WILL be built into one of the next few nightlies -- with unique IMEI's -- then that's fantastic!!
However, without it, there's currently no other way to run HBO GO, Swype, etc -- unless we compile our own framework.jar... which isn't an option for some of us noobs.
Has work already begun on a better solution?

This is great news!!!
I will cease and desist as soon as it it completed. Obviously the best thing would be for people to follow mthe0ry's instructions and do this themselves (it's really not that hard) using their own unique IMEI number. That said I'm happy to continue the "hack" method for those who don't wish to do it themselves.
Yes, having multiple devices with the same IMEI could become problematic but so far it's worked for the apps people want. I do appreciate the warning as I probably wasn't as clear about the "hack" nature of this in the OP as I should have been.

please disregard below. in reading the thread better I can see it's not for swype at all but for setting the nook up with an IMEI.
I don't mean to be rude, but why not just use slide-it? I'm cognisant of the simplicity of swype as I use it daily on my Galaxy S, but slide-it is nearly as good and works without fault on the nook (rooted stock and CM7) without any mods.

Concerns about unique devices make me wonder... I have a broken HTC Kaiser sitting on a shelf above my desk. It will never again be a functional device, but yet it has it's own unique IMEI.
Does the IMEI alone tell apps anything about what sort of device belongs to the number? If not, then it seems that I could use the IMEI from that Kaiser or the broken G1 I have.
It doesn't seem like these apps know anything about the device from the IMEI alone, given that people have been implementing this fix with no repercussions. That means apps probably don't check any hypothetical IMEI-device info against what's recorded in the build.prop, so this seems like a safe, workable solution for those of us with defective devices on our shelves.
Is there a way to make this work on a ManualNootered nook with 1.2, or does it only work if you have a custom rom.
Thanks
integrate in CM7
could you not ask the maintainers of CyanogenMod to integrate this in the future nightlies?
they would probably welcome the added functionality
Hello Guy's,
this is my first post after spending _hours_ with searching and trying to flash my 2 Year Old HTC Hero.
I want to give it a second live. Especialy my dad lost his old phone...
I'm very frustrated and I need maybe a suggestion from you to get startet.
Here are some fact's I tried:
Installed Rom:
HTC-Sense Android 1.6 preInstalled bei "Deutsche Telekom D1" (They told me!).
But Firmware say's "Firmware Version 1.5). So which Information counts?
Personally I guess I have 1.5 because your Device Database tells it's a T-Mobile G2 Touch (GSM i think)
SD-Card:
2GB with 1,6GB free
Tried to do flashing like mentioned in your wiki. And tried the CM-Wiki for the Hero
wiki.cyanogenmod.com/wiki/HTC_Hero_%28GSM%29:_Full_Update_Guide
But flash_image tells:
Illegal Instruction...
ROM Manager is not found in the market.
Tried to download it and install it via ./adb install <image>.apk
This tells:
OLD_VERSION..
Guess I'm dealing with wrong App-Versions. Now I'm a little bit "confused" what exactly to do.
I thought about reset the whole phone an do some fresh install.
But all instrctions I can find on google or here is doing the things with "Rom Manager" or doing it with other Android versions than mine...
I'm not the guy who wants a step by step help and wasting other peoples time.
But I'm at a point, i need some link and/or small advice how to start the right way...
Thanks a lot

What's wrong with RC7? I installed it successfully on my phone, and it runs. Can't tell much of a difference though.
Is there something specific installation error that you are running into, or do you have a way to check if the script is running correctly? If I try to run /data/99Supercharger.sh again, it tells me the my phone is already supercharged and to verify that "Ran_Supercharger" exists in /data, which it does.
After installing Balance 3, I see no difference in the Go Launcher. LauncherPro is better than ever, and my battery life is now really good.

I would love to install this. But.your instructions differ greatly..you suggest a busting install along withal file explorer install.. He suggests script manager.
And there is some question as to which pdt we should be using.

Its not clear which version of the script we need...or which set of instructions we should use.
Listing a set of instructions in a note specific forum (ones that differ from those elsewhere) implies that the others wont work on our device....or that something could be easier or go wrong.

Hello, new Galaxy Ace and curently in the process of customizing the **** out of it. Few questions:
1. Exactly what pre-installed apps can I uninstall safely? Device is rooted, on GB 2.3.5.
2. I plan on installing SaidyBoost, do I need to uninstall apps if I'm going to do this?
3. The thread is http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1561806, could someone please tell me how I install a kernel that supports init.d, and should I install ext4lagfix?
4. To install it, do I just put the .zip on the SD, then update from recovery mode, and do I need CWM, and does this void the warranty (I'm guessing yes).
I'm sorry for the spiel; I'm usually the one doling out the advice but I am a total n00b to Android. Any help and time taken is much appreciated, thank you

Hello, new Galaxy Ace and curently in the process of customizing the **** out of it. Few questions:
1. Exactly what pre-installed apps can I uninstall safely? Device is rooted, on GB 2.3.5.
2. I plan on installing SaidyBoost, do I need to uninstall apps if I'm going to do this?
3. The thread is http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1561806, could someone please tell me how I install a kernel that supports init.d, and should I install ext4lagfix?
4. To install it, do I just put the .zip on the SD, then update from recovery mode, and do I need CWM, and does this void the warranty (I'm guessing yes).

1. You don't uninstall.. It's impossible. Maybe possibru if you have a file manager and you navigate into /system/app then mount it as R/W (read & write) and delete them (not so recommended though)
2.No need to do anything, just install it
3. Get yourself a ROM, and see in the ROM thread which kernel runs best with that ROM. Many kernels support init.d
4. Dude, forget about the warranty. Get rid of your paper, your warranty was gone the second you rooted your phone
Press thanks if i helped

I'm literally retarded, I can't find the thank button >.> tell me where and you shall receive.
It is possibru to uninstall the stock apps, I already installed a few. Just want to know which ones exactly.
Could you point me towards what I should download?
And I am keeping the warranty because if I really screw it up, I can hardbrick it on purpose and send it back for a new one. How shly

I see you are quite new
Soo, get yourself a recovery,boot into recovery, make a backup.
If you want to learn ROM development, this is the place for you ..
It will tell you what to do, and how to do..
After that you will learn to delete apps you dont want(ex.Maps;if u dont use maps)
Then you make a flashable zip and install it through the Recovery you installed previous
The thanks button is below the post im posting now
One better (IMO) option than uninstalling pre-installed apps (as this has been known to cause problems with updates and stability/performance for some) would be to use an app like Gemini App Manager to turn off Autorun settings (usually just turn off "On Boot Completed", but some other events can help also) for the apps you don't want to use. That way, these apps will not use up resources in the background without running the them yourself. That way you can keep the apps around in case some future update or something else requires their presence.

It's simple. Just more use of the geek-ish part of your brain.
If you don't want to mod a ROM, then just grab one from the Android Development Section of your phones thread, because they already have many useless apps removed, and some tweaks applied
If you want to learn more about ROM cooking PM me

Literally all I want is to install that ROM. THat is all. Nothing more, nothing less, I don't want a kitchen on my phone, I don't want to learn more developemnt, I know too much crap already. I don't want to edit the ROM, or any other stuff.
Are you telling me I need to do ALL that to my phone just to speed it up? Are my choices walk the tight rope of the Android kitchen or be n00b and download the pre-made one? Plesus Jesus let that be all.

Praise the lord thats it
Just get ur ass on a good ROM, and see watcha like in your rom. There is also the newest version of Android, the 4.0.4 for your phone. Just check it out in the Development Section. Search for AOKP (Android Open Kang Project) . Or you can always stick with a better 2.3.x ROM for your phone
Cheers bro
