-Install Launcher Pro and launch it.
-Press Menu then Preferences.
-Select Behavior Settings
-Change Home Key Action to Show/Hide Status bar.
-Restart Launcher Pro.
Now when you are in a full screen game app like Angry Birds, hit the Nook button and you will see the status bar with the back button, menu button, etc.
Hitting the nook button just takes me back to LauncherPro. It only hides and unhides the status bar when I am IN LauncherPro.
Yeah... seeing that now. Could have sworn it actually brought up the menu when I was still in the game.
Oh well. Lets keep trying to find a fix.
any progress on this yet? i would love this to help with my games.
I have an idea for a workaround fix. I'm not really sure whether this is possible at all or how long it might take someone to program this:
A proxy home application:
1. When you press the nook button and you are not on the home screen (preferably only if you are in fullscreen mode, but I'm not sure if you can get this info easily) you get a popup menu that displays you all the Android buttons, and "settings".
2. In the settings you can set the "real" home's package name. AFAIK the HOME button sends something like a "show launcher" (can't be bothered to look it up at the moment) Intent to the system, so we can't just send it again when we press the virtual "home" button. Unless of course you "always" want to choose what happens when you press the nook button.
3. The other buttons (back & menu) would just forward the keypress event to the currently running Activity (the one on top of the stack). Now there's the thing I'm not sure about: is this possible at all? I believe there are remote control apps that forward input from your PC to your Android device, so I guess it should be possible.
Something like this... I guess if this is possible it should be fairly easy for someone who is familiar with input methods and launcher code to put something like this together.
Powerstrip behaves this way. It is a popup menu I retrieve by double tapping home. Single press of home loads whatever launcher is configured in Powerstrip's settings. Maybe something similar but when you double tap shows the back and menu keys overlayed onscreen. Shouldn't be too hard to program for someone versed in Android development (not me).
I remember early talks of changing the volume keys to act as menu and back. You could always change the volume in the UI.
I've mapped my volume keys to home/back. Works great.

wouldn't this remove all volume functionality?
Would I still be able to change volume while in a Music app?

It would remove the volume button functionality... I'm not sure if there's a software volume setting somewhere... There's talk over here about porting Cyanogen's Mod or something to enable a Home button-Volume combo that restores volume functionality.
For me, the volume is less of a concern - I'm pretty much always within reach of my EVO - and I use that for music primarily.

Home/back, or menu/back? I mean, we already have a home button ...
(but awesome, btw)
There's a bunch of widgets you can use instead to control audio volume.

Make sure you have a space between the g' and the * - I ran in to the same problem myself.
I noticed that when launching Root Explorer and applications like Maps actually have the Back and Menu button located at the bottom, Nook dock bar. However, no Search button was there.
Perhaps it can be switched on somewhere in the settings?

Space is there, still not working... Hmm...
You don't have to use sed, you can use any text editor which is faithful to unix file formats (IE, doesn't use CR/LF or CR, just LF). Vi is fine, or on windows, maybe something like crimson editor.

I just got my fascinate yesterday and I'm trying to root it right away. I let or upgrade ota to 2.2 earlier and now I'm trying the root method of the start root process on the pc and that's not working and I also tried the z4root and I have no luck with that either. Anyone have any advice?
Sent from my SCH-I500 using xda premium
I don't care for one-click style roots, I've always had the best luck using ADB.
However, are you going to flash a custom ROM? If so there really isn't a reason to root.
---------- Post added at 05:50 PM ---------- Previous post was at 05:46 PM ----------
These where my notes back when I rooted my phone originally, if it helps, the files necessary for this should still be fairly easy to find (If it helps any, I still say flash a custom rom and skip the rooting process):
- Install USB driver
- Install Android SDK
- On phone
- Turn USB Debugging on (Settings, Applications, Development)
- Allow mock locations
- Plug phone into computer
- Command Prompt
- adb devices (this should just show that the phone is connected)
- Unzip root.zip
- busybox
- rageagainstthecage-arm5.bin
- su
- Superuser.apk
- Command Prompt
- Navigate to the directory of adb.exe, in Android SDK, Platform-Tools
- adb push c:\[directory]\rageagainstthecage-arm5.bin /data/local/tmp/rageagainstthecage-arm5.bin
- adb shell
- Shell prompt should be $
- cd /data/local/tmp
- chmod 0755 rageagainstthecage-arm5.bin
- ./rageagainstthecage-arm5.bin
- Wait till prompt comes back up, will end adb shell automatically
- adb shell
- Shell prompt should be #
- exit
- adb push su /sdcard/su
- adb push busybox /sdcard/busybox
- adb shell
- mount -t rfs -o remount,rw /dev/block/stl9 /system
- cd /system/xbin
- cat /sdcard/su > ./su
- cat /sdcard/busybox > ./busybox
- chmod 4755 su
- chmod 4755 busybox
- exit
- adb install Superuser.apk
- This may freeze, wait till it says "Success", then Ctrl-C to exit.
- Reboot phone
- Download ClockworkMod Rom Manager from Android Market
- Turn Phone off
- Remove battery
- Hold volume down button in
- Plug USB cable in
- Should See Android digging.
- Open Odin
- Use PDA button
- Select the CWMrecovery_DJ05_DL09.tar.md5
- Click Start
- Should say pass when done.
- Put battery back in and turn phone on.
- Flashing only works from Recovery mode, not ROM Manager.
- Hold both volume up and down buttons in, Turn Phone on.
- First screen apply update.zip to get into Clockwork.
- First screen home button is "enter"
- Second screen back arrow is "enter"

Just two things I've observed with rooting my NT:
the /data folder on my Nook Table resets on reboot, to cause commands like 'adb shell mkdir /data/<somename>' to fail.
To correct, I have to execute 'adb shell' and:
Code:
$ su root
# chmod 777 /data
# exit
$ exit
then resume any adb commands
I have to remove 'Auto Mount' and uncheck-check the 'USB Debbuging' box (top one in list) in Development settings after a reboot/power down.
The 'AppMenu' apk http://suipre.com/AppMenu.apk is great for doing this, but it does need to be done if I power down/reboot
Hope this helps someone!
Extra notes or hints welcome!

-------------------------------------------------------------SYSTEM INSTALLATION-------------------------------------------------------------
How install CM9 on archos gen8
-Download CM9 image files from mediafire that i have shared, choose appropriate image.
-Download initramfs.cpio.gz (NOT MINICOM except i tell you to install it for a report)
-Download Kernel in attachment files (don't uncompress the Kernel file, just rename it like this: zImage)
-Download data.img.tar.gz and uncompress it - choose the data image that you want and renamed it like data_ICS.img
Install Kernel and initramfs.cpio.gz
-install kernel and initramfs.cpio.gz (don't install the minicom version) by SDE menu
-Don't uncompress the Kernel file, just rename it like this: zImage
-Just copy-paste, ONE BY ONE the kernel and initramfs.cpio.gz (if I paste together the files, it doesn't worked for me)
/!\ BUT BIZCUITE, I HAVE A PROBLEM, THE TAB SAYS ME THAT zImage IS NOT INSTALLED, AAAAAAAAH!!!!!PLEAAAASE HEEELP
=>You have WINDOWS please read this!!!
Install CM9 Image:
-uncompress image of CM9 downloaded
-copy paste image on the root of internal sdcard (like CM7)
-uncompressed data.img.tar.gz if it's not done, choose an image and rename it like data_ICS.img
-copy/paste the data_ICS.img to the root of the internal sdcard.
How configure menu.lst (See the file in attachment, just uncompress it)
-edit your menu.lst, copy paste my line
Code:
CYANOBIZ||/CYANOBIZ_BETA2.X_AX.img|/init|0Archos|ARCHOS|ARCHOS|/init
Change "CYANOBIZ_BETA2.X_AX.img" by the version and the type of tab that you have downloaded
Exemple: CYANOBIZ_BETA2.4_A101.img
If you haven't the file. Create a file named "menu.lst" with notepad++ under windows (not the windows notepad!!!) Or gedit for ubuntu.
And copy paste the line on it. Save and copy paste the file on the root of the internal sdcard.
-------------------------------------------------------------GOOGLE APP. INSTALLATION-------------------------------------------------------------
How install Google App.
If you have NEVER installed GApp:
-Download the file
-Rename the file like this "gapps-ics-20120429-signedremake_all_dpi_works.zip" ( just WITHOUT the "-" )
-Copy paste the file in the download folders of your internal SDCARD
-Reboot
-After the first reboot wait 5 minutes (the system uncompresses the files and install its)
-Reboot and enjoy
-------------------------------------------------------------BLUETOOTH ACTIVATION-------------------------------------------------------------
If you want to have Bluetooth
In a terminal enter:
Code:
hciconfig hci0 up
-------------------------------------------------------------SWAP CONFIGURATION-------------------------------------------------------------
SWAP / Zram / CompCache:
The swap is used with this priority:
Code:
[email protected]:/ # cat /proc/swaps
Filename Type Size Used Priority
/swapfile file 179156 5716 -1
/dev/block/zram0 partition 51192 0 -2
/dev/block/ramzswap0 partition 175464 0 -3
This the new swap_activation.sh
Code:
swapoff /dev/block/ramzswap0
swapoff /dev/block/zram0
echo $((50*1024*1024)) > /sys/block/zram0/disksize
mkswap /dev/block/zram0
swapon /swapfile
swapon /dev/block/zram0
swapon /dev/block/ramzswap0
Just change the order of this lines to start differently the swap.
First to start : swapon /swapfile
second to start: swapon /dev/block/zram0
last to start: swapon /dev/block/ramzswap0
Play with this lines to see if performance are better.
-------------------------------------------------------------OVERCLOCK-------------------------------------------------------------
HOW OVERCLOCK THE CPU
just change the value with a root explorer into the file at this path:
/sys/power/mpu_freq_opp5
YOU WILL LOSE THE CHANGE AFTER A REBOOT
but if you find your oc stable write the line in the init.rc, under " # Enabling power management features":
Code:
write /sys/power/mpu_freq_opp5 1100

How have a good Camera image :
-> just open camera app, unplug usb cable and press power button to activate deep sleep mode (wait the led turn off) and presss again power button. Re open the camera app and the image is clean.

If you have any problem with kernel or OS, download again all files and reinstall its.
If you have bootloop or crash of tablet, make me a report plz.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
/!\ To make a report /!\ MINICOM version of initramfs is required.
YOU DON'T USED ADB (select NONE option) .. JUST MINICOM (SERIAL option)
I used the initramfs.cpio.gz with debug by serial made by Divx118.
install minicom and enter in a terminal under root rights:
"minicom -D /dev/ttyACM2" (when you are after selection of debug types screen and when OS screen selection appears press "enter" don't forget to plug usb cable )
The minicom must be connected. and DMESG log appears on terminal.
CONFIGURE YOUR TERMINAL TO HAVE UNLIMITED CHARACTERS ON THE SCREEN (else log will be cut)

DON'T TRY TO COMPILE ATM, IT'S JUST A BETA VERSION OF THE HOW - I HAVEN'T TEST IT!!
How to compile CyanoBiz:
Make sure that you have Ubuntu 10.04 or 12 - 64Bits - 4GB of RAM - 100GB free on HD and a Quad core CPU is better to compile it (i have 4GB of RAM and a little Core2duo 1.6GHz - dual core on a T60P Lenovo - HD of 300GB).
Go to your work foder. i have put it directly in my home directory, done it as you want.
mkdir -p ./BIZ_ICS
PATH=~/bin:$PATH
curl https://dl-ssl.google.com/dl/googlesource/git-repo/repo > ~/bin/repo
chmod a+x ~/bin/repo
repo init -u git://github.com/CyanogenMod/android.git -b ics-release
repo sync -j16
Wait that the download is finished....
Download my github and uncompress the framework, device and hardware zip files (not update ATM).
Replace CM9 folders by mine:
-./framework/base
-./hardware/...
-./device/archos/g8

Hello,
ICS doesn't work on my A43. It stay locked on the OpenAOS screen after the .img selection menu.
Maybe my tablet isn't compatible.
Thanks for your great work

Have you any cable connected on the tab and have you seen this?
Others things:
If you want to power on your tab without make any debug, don't forget to disconnect the tab from the USB computer.
If you do that, the CM9 doesn't want boot.
DISCONNECT USB CABLE IF YOU HAVEN'T MINICOM RUNNING
Retry without cable please and with the new kernel!!
Try to see if you have any log on terminal if it doesn't worked

Please report about Touchscreen it's very important for me (and for you if you want a CM9 who works on your tab )
Make a report like this:
Model of tab: Archos xx
Touchescreen works: yes / no
Another bug (except if it writes on first post)
Remember: the first boot takes time the dexopt is active 2-3 minutes to have unlock screen.

Biz,
I've flashed the new kernel, booted back into CM. I've been sitting at the bootsplash for 20 minutes now. Attachment below.
Is it safe to try it on A70S with "kboot" installed? Seconds question that I'd like to know is that the touchscreen isnt currently working, right?

I don't know if it works with kboot, the kernel is based on CM7 kernel, if it works with it i think that yes!!
Touchscreen for A70S doesn't work (except if it uses Hanvon TS, it must work now), yes and i need a full log to fix it if i can (without tab it's very difficult).

You have a harddrive version, that's the pb, there is no error who permit me to fix it ATM.
I will pm you and see it later.
Edit: i have seen that all your log is cut, can you remake it with a more larger terminal (or more little char.) to have all lines
Bizcuite
the last thing that I see when I boot is some cyano guy who is traveling in space. Do I have to wait longer or its the unlock screen and my touchscreen isnt working?
EDIT: Rename your data.img to something else.
EDIT2: Can u help me run adb successfully, I've tried many times with guides but it was not for gen8 and I couldnt make it run. I really wanna join.
EDIT3: It booted. The touchscreen on A70S is working only at the upper left side (I can pull down the statusbar and enable/disable wifi). Nothing else is working on touchscreen. Hope it helps you cuz I cant run adb.

/!\ To make a report /!\
YOU DON'T USED ADB.. JUST MINICOM (adb cannot worked with this initramfs.cpio.gz, don't change it if you want adb, i have another version without serial debug)
I don't think that rename data.img is usefull:
look the init.rc:
Code:
mount ext4 /dev/block/mmcblk1p1 /mnt/storage
mount vfat /dev/block/mmcblk1p1 /mnt/storage
mount ext3 /dev/block/mmcblk0p2 /mnt/system
# mount ext3 /dev/block/mmcblk0p4 /data nosuid nodev
# mount ext4 [email protected]/mnt/storage/data.img /data nosuid nodev
data.img is not mount i used only data folder IN the image.
I need a log to see what's appened, i will retry my rom upload when i will be at home
If you have any linux machine you can try to see if there are crash errors when you mount the image in the data folder and tombstones folder
To mount image file enter:
mount -o loop /media/A70S/openaos-cm.img /mnt/
look the path of your tab, maybe it's not the same.

I can expand the terminal window, but I already changed the profile for unlimited scrolling. The entire log as it was recorded should be there. I can produce another one with a maximized terminal window if that will help. Log attached.

Your best bet if you want to get serious on testing and debug is to install a linux distro. Since android was born from linux, it's much easier to get the work done from a linux platform. Your best best would be to used an Ubuntu based distro, like Ubuntu or it's variants, or Linux Mint. If you use that, I can give you instructions on what you need to get rolling. PM me if you are interested in doing that.
Yes I am interested in installing Linux. Anyway I found something. On A70S the TS seems to be miss calibrated, I entered settings and enabled the cursor (something that displays my touch direction) and it seems like its miss calibrated for a bigger screed or bigger resolution. Hope it helps.

It is not related to kboot I think, i have A70S with kboot and the only difference between them both is the large screen that 101 has.
Hi,
I want to let Android OS to boot automatically when the charger connected (for HTC Magic) without pressing power button
I found this guide
---------------------------------------------------------------------
Complete boot when charging
If your phone only gets one of those ugly battery symbols when a charger is connected to a powered off phone this is because the init process is interrupted by /system/bin/chargemon. That file is a binary ARM program, I replaced it with a simple script containing only a single line:
echo skipping chargemon
The file was created and installed with the following steps:
Code:
echo "echo skipping chargemon" > chargemon.script
adb pull /system/bin/chargemon chargemon.backup
adb push chargemon.script /sqlite_stmt_journals
adb shell
$ cd /sqlite_stmt_journals
$ su
# mount -o remount,rw /dev/block/mtdblock0 /system
# cat chargemon.script > /system/bin/chargemon
# chmod 755 /system/bin/chargemon
# reboot -p
When the command su is given above, it might have to be acknowledged in a dialog on the phone screen.
The final command reboot -p shuts down the phone. As the USB cable is still connected it will power on again, and if everything has gone fine the phone will complete its boot process without halting with any battery symbol.
-------------------------------------------------------------------
But I can't find "chargemon" in System/bin
Please Help
Thanks for every one
chargemon file is only present in sony xperia phones. So you won't find it in other models.

Check out this video - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ViZ2uoc90zQ Here you will find a feature that starts the OS at a pre-defined time. We can replace that command with start-on-charger-connect.
Xperia Mini Pro does not start
I replaced the chargemon file and put my version with only one line(with 755 permissions):
echo startting...
but now, mi xperia mini does not start only shows the screen "sony ericcson"
any way to recover my phone, please ??
hi,
have anyone found a generic way to autoboot android phone?
Hi guys, has anyone found a generic way to auto boot android devices on charge?
I've been reading up on this and found various suggestions, all based on files within /system/bin such as ipod, playlpm , lpm or chargemon. My device has none of these files (yes its routed and yes my explorer is showing hidden files)
I've searched through all the files in /bin and cannot find any mention of "ChargingAnimation" in any of the files there..
I have found the charge animation image files which show when the device is being charged when powered off "/res/images/charger", but I can't find the code that triggers this image. If I could, I would add the line to reboot there.
Any help greatly appreciated.
I have a Tesco Hudl 1 with 4.2.2
