Shout out to Mistar Muffin for his script for other OS's. I've added my knowledge of DOS and some extra stuff. Enjoy guys it works perfectly. I've tested this thing fully it works....again it works. Run it over your messed up Nook and it should fix it. LOL, hopefully!
Prerequisites; Super user and adb working or auto-nookered! Enjoy I've tested this on Nooks DIRECTLY OUT OF THE BOX and with Nooks that have been partially modded.
Recommendations? Yea if you don't like the fact that I edited the volume buttons I've taken it out of the autonook.bat and added it to a separate batch file.

P.S - If you break your Nook I'm not going to take any responsibility. This will not format your system32 or deltree your windows folder...just enjoy!
Need to get back to stock?
WARNING: Make sure your battery is CHARGED before attempting!
Code:
adb pull /rom/devconf/BootCnt
echo -n -e "\x08\x00\x00\x00" > BootCnt
adb push .\BootCnt /rom/devconf/BootCnt
adb reboot
There is a batch file that runs the above code included its called (factoryreset.bat)
This will set the boot count to 8 and reboot your device sending it into Factory Reset mode. Once your factory reset is complete you can force shutdown (by holding power for 15 seconds) and hold then hold the "n" button and "Volume +" while powering the unit on to reset your data. After this is done its like you just pulled the nook out of the box for the first time.
Remove your SD Card and turn on your Nook Color, register your device and plug in the USB cord. Go DOWNLOAD the 1.0.1 update and save it to your "MYNOOKCOLOR" drive's root folder. Reboot your device should start to update your nook to 1.0.1!
Now that your Nook Color is on 1.0.1 firmware you want to root it with Auto-Nooter you can follow this thread to do so.
Enjoy
Didn't need the whole script, but I modded my volume buttons with your files and code. Thats a great feature. Thanks!

Eh...read the title of the code he posted. Do believe he modified the buttons to act as back / menu.
A...colorful post ;-)
"DIRECTLY OUT OF THE BOX" so it works on...unrooted Nooks ?
After two spontaneous resets yesterday I'm ready to try anything at this point, especially since I can't get mine to update to 1.01 with the manual method...
...which raises the question, does this work with 1.01 ?
1. "DIRECTLY OUT OF THE BOX" - no, still needs nooter for ADB, makes sense
2. Does not work with 1.01+nooter - it hangs on boot at the Adobe screen, like the original script and autonooter I understand.
Will have to do it the manual way or maybe keep some of the automation, must say the script is well documented ;-)
So I did the 8 finger salute and it flashed itself to...1.0.0 ! So after clearing the memory I am now running the script, currently installing the apps...
Seems to have worked pretty well, I did have a problem with the menu button not working until YouTube got fixed by the script, so I got around that problem by commenting on a video at which point it asked me for my log in info.
Now updating to Maps 5.00!
Hopefully the OTA killing in the script will prevent an update to 1.01...
post Maps 5 and ill update my script accordingly
should work on 1.0.1, any testers?
Whoa.....it installs flash?

Nope, like I said above it doesn't, fortunately a "factory reset" took my NC back to 1.0.0 so I was able to run it and no "spontaneous resets" so far, must have been something in Autonooter.
Not sure how to get the MAP 5 apk, would Titanium do that ?
I'll look into the map 5 app Maybe marketplace then download from /data/app. I'll get it when I get a change. I wonder if the reason why this doesnt workon 1.0.1 is because of my change of the bootanamation. If anyone would like to run this on 1.0.1 with out my boot animation change that would be fanstastic. I know alot of you guys are younger then me but I have to go xmas shopping with the woman
:edit
Also might be a problem with the framework but I replace the framework package with the hacked one on the main 1.0.1 so I dont know what could be the problem.
Girlfriend is wrapping some gifts I'm going to update the 1.0.0 version with new google maps 5.0 and I'm going to remove the 1.0.1 for now until I test fully
Does Flash for 2.1 actually work with this device? I tried loading the Flash for Eclair devices a couple days ago and it would load but no flash activity.
Thanks for the hard work.
Probably not I added it cause I saw it here. I'll remove it on mine and in the next version. Unless you find a working one. I think Java is needed for Flash to work.
I wondered why there was so much unnecessary swearing in the original post and then I saw "Xbox" in his name...
Fits...
I was hammered...which is probably the only reason I released it
Been stable since last night, more than I can say of my experiences with Autonooter (spontaneous hardresets at random), but I'm not getting WiFi location in Maps, something I had with Autonooter, anyone know how to enable this ? The location boxes were checked in the wizard.

Me3 This was my main reason for re-rooting..
Yes, Auto-Nooter must be doing something the scripts aren't doing, not sure whether it can be done manually via ADB...
If you guys want to stick with the old nooter and then I can just add enabling super user to my script....let me know if this is something you'd like me to add.
Hi friends, I have questions about the firmware MiniCMSandwich. First, why do not works the code service - * # * # 7378423 # * # *.
Secondly, tell me how to replace the standard Caller ID.what file apk is responsible for it?
Found, in the system there is no application (servicemenu.apk). I downloaded it from ICS, trying to establish. Error. ..
Help me, please.
Because it is Sony's own menu, which is not in other ROMs.

The handling of the Torch if an exception occured was very bad and
it was easy to break:
- notify the user with toast if the camera interface is not pressent
- catch the case that sys led controlled devices have wrong permissions
(eg third party kernel) and torch will completly crash.
Checking now if sys init is present.......if not successful
try to switch back to the camera interface.
- send broadcast change only if the state really switched
- when error occured turn off the service and the notification
- cleanup
- send broadcast with qualified users

2013-12-19: twrp: Correct screen resolution. <@Meticulus>
2013-12-18: LVMv2: initial implementation system(600M) <@Meticulus>
Code:
-Logical Volume Management
-The YP-G70 only has a 290m /system partition and this is not enough
to accomodate KitKat + full gapps. So, I'm implementing LVM so that
we can get dynamic volume resizing without having to change the under-
lying partitions.
-Partitions in Logical Group (Aprox 2.1G)
-- /dev/block/mmcblk0p13 (normally /system)
-- /dev/block/mmcblk0p16 (normally /data
-Logical volumes
-- /dev/lvpool/system (600M)
-- /dev/lvpool/data (100% remaining, aprox 1.5G)
-Installation Notes
--On the first flash, if the system logical volume is not present or
is less than 600M there is an assert error. This is so that if anyone
needs to backup information contained in /data, they can. In order to
proceed with the installation, the zip must be flashed a 2nd time.
--During the 2nd flash partitions in the logical group are wiped and
the logical volumes are created and formated then the /etc/fstab and
/etc/recovery.fstab are switched so that, when we hand everything off
to the normal rom installer, the new logical volumes are mounted.
-Reverting to a PRE-LVM ROM
--In the YP-G70 the "recovery", be it CWM or TWRP and in the kernel's
recovery-ramdisk. So in order to get a different recovery you just
flash a different kernel. So to get back to a PRE-LVM ROM, you just:
1. Reboot to recovery like normal.
2. Flash your PRE-LVM ROM like normal.
-- Note: All we really care about at this point is that the kernel
(boot.img) gets flashed. Ignore any other errors!
3. After the flash, Power off.
4. Hold volume up and power on, till you get to recovery.
5. Full wipe, including /system
6. Flash ROM + Gapps like normal
-Future Considerations
--LVMv2 allows us to quickly change the size of the system partition
as Android grows in size without having to manually repartition.
Manually repartitioning might cause unforseen problems with legacy
software.
-Meticulus
2013-12-17: recovery init: adb without /system <@Meticulus>
Code:
This allows "adb shell" to function when /system partition is not mounted
or for any reason /system/bin/sh is unavailable.
When /system IS mounted then adb uses mksh is used via /system/bin/sh
When /system IS NOT mounted then adb uses busybox via /sbin/sh

I didn't really solve it, per say. I put in a cheap hack to change the permission of the directory: in the init.venturi.rc. I'll got some clean up to do, but I'll be pushing my device tree tomorrow and submitting some changes to yours so we can get CM11.
Hello! Thanks for your work! I tested this rom, it's pretty nice. The only bug (except known) is that TWRP is not working on INTL kernel.
i'm having problems getting super user access, anyone else got this?

Hi Meticulus!
First, let me thank you for all your time and energy spent in making this mod for an old device! I love my Player 5, but it is show it's age. I'm hoping your SlimKat 4.4.1 will breathe new life into it. (A shame Samsung stopped developing this line).
I have a Galaxy Player 5 running a rootedGingerbread 2.3.5 with CWM v5.0.2.7 (no TWRP)
Do you recommend any special preparation before applying SlimKat 4.4.1?
Since I'm using CWM, will I be able to restore back to Gingerbread using a current backup (just in case)?
As you might have guessed, I am not a frequent "mod"-er so I've fallen behind a bit.
Thank you for taking your time to help me and so many others!
Based on latest KITKAT from @dsa8310.
Sharing with you my custom modified rom with KK image.
OPEN GAPS VERSION: DOWNLOAD 1024x600 and 800x480 image
To get root access, you have to type in Factory settings instead of 126 -> *#hct#root# and then ok (just once!).

- mtc screen clock
- mtc status bar
DISABLING THE SCREEN SAVER OR CHANGING TIME:
Edit on external SD/ GPS-Card : Mtc.Manager/settings.ini
# the inclusion of an alternative screen saver, when you specify false will work full-time mechanism:
screenClock=false or true to activate
# Time off the screen if you do not set out full-time settings will be used in sec:
screenTimeout=300
# The name of the screensaver program package
screenPackage=com.microntek.screenclock
# Name Activiti screensaver
screenClass=MainActivity
# If the name of the package and Activiti is not specified, it will use a standard screensaver
MTC MANAGER CAPABILITIES:
capabilities
All configuration files must be on the external map in the mtc-manager directory.
1. The module carries the functionality of xposed-mcu , which does not allow the radio to go to sleep during the scrolling of the starter.
- when receiving a signal to turn off the module delays for 5 seconds, if at that moment the power reappears, nothing happens, in the absence of power, the radio recovers into sleep.
Due to the features of the implementation of the inclusion in our MCU, the screen goes out for the time of voltage failure.
This functionality can be disabled in settings.ini:
Settings.ini
Mcu_power = false
2. The module has a white list of applications that does not allow the system to close necessary services and applications when going to sleep and when pressing the "Acceleration" button in the blind. Thus, the module allows to refuse from using mtc-wakeup-service .
Filename with exceptions whitelist.ini
The file name of the white list application packages must be listed.

3. Accelerated start of user services. The services are started when the system kernel is loaded.
The list of services should be on the external map in the mtc-manager directory, the file name start_services.ini
each line should contain the service name in the format package name / full service name,
#
example
4. An alternative screensaver with a list of exceptions, running in any (even a non-standard application). The standard screen saver mechanism is activated.
It may not work on all firmware.
Settings in the settings.ini file.
Settings.ini
# Inclusion of an alternative screensaver, if false, the standard mechanism will work:
screenClock = true
# screen off time, if not specified, the value from the
default settings will be used: screenTimeout = 60
# screen saver program name
screenPackage = com.microntek.screenclock
# screen saver activation name
ScreenClass = MainActivity
# if the package name and activations are not specified, then the standard screensaver will be used
The exception list is located in the ss_exceptions.ini file - the package names must be listed, for example:
Ss_exceptions.ini
com.microntek.music
ru.yandex.yandexmaps
Also the screensaver will not start when talking on the phone, the rear view camera, navigation and turning off the radio.
If instead of a beautiful clock MTCSreenClock.apk a screensaver with a standard digital clock on a black background is called, you need to make sure that the MTCScreenClock application is installed.
If the application is installed, you can try setting screenPackage and screenClass parameters in settings.ini
5. Also in the module there is a "backup" for correct sound adjustment in MTC-Volume and MTC-Service .
#
The adjustment of sound in firmware on Android 4.4.4
6. Re-designation of OBD-device bluetooth.
Device names must be listed in the settings.ini file in obd_device parameter, separated by commas, in the form in which they are visible in the standard hands-free application. You can specify not names, but parts of names, for example:
Settings.ini
Obd_device = OBD, DUAL-SPP
7. Set the list of programs that are switched by the MODE button,
In settings.ini, set
Settings.ini
ModeSwitch = true
Programs are switched sequentially one after the other.
For correct sound switching, the applications used must be managed (play / pause) programmatically via intents. If the player does not support the start and stop playback of external intents, then you have to manually switch the sound.
When you click on the MODE button, the active application is searched for in the running list. Next, the application is sent a command (configurable in mode.ini) to close or pause the audio stream. After that, the default activation for the next application is launched and the application is sent a command to start playback (also configured in mode.ini)
#
Mode.ini
8. Disable the launch of the last running program.
Settings.ini
Clear_last_app = true
9. GPS time synchronization.
Settings.ini
Sync_gps_time = true
10. Turn on w-fi at startup.
Settings.ini
Wifi.on = true

It's open gaps version because kitkat doesn't need micro g with 1 gb of ram. If someone else will be interested in MicroG I will give a try

I've tested the ROM and everything is working well.
Screensaver don't work, I've activate the modules and placed the folders on GPS Card.
But the Screensaver don't appear.
To get root acsees , you have to type in Factorysetings instead of 126 -> *#hct#root# and then ok.
Overall a good ROM with some cool futures, hope you can fix the screensaver issue.

Yes you have to activate root once that's it.
Check folder mtc-manager on gps card called settings and change
# the inclusion of an alternative screen saver, when you specify false will work full-time mechanism:
screenClock=true
# Time off the screen if you do not set out full-time settings will be used in sec: change this value to lower just to test:
screenTimeout=300
# The name of the screensaver program package
screenPackage=com.microntek.screenclock
# Name Activiti screensaver
screenClass=MainActivity
# If the name of the package and Activiti is not specified, it will use a standard screensaver
how long does it take to boot after initial flash? I been waiting like 20 minutes still on a black screen
Thanks @Johny DJ for sharing this ROM with us!
I installed and tested 800 x 480 version on my RK3188 unit. Most of the functions are working flawlessly. Noticed a couple of things that i wanted to let you know:
1) The bluetooth app appears out of scale on the screen. Number 0 in the dial pad is cut off, and the refresh button on the contacts is also not visible. Please have a look at the screenshots below:
https://ibb.co/cde7NQ
https://ibb.co/hwP7NQ
2) I'm quite new to xposed. I copied the folders to the SD card, but do i need to enable any modules for the screen saver to work properly ? The screensaver appears in the screen, but the speed indicator shows null.

I'm sorry yes, I used one, and I didn't write or mentioned yet because it's not working in other update I was planning to write if it will work, but I think it's related to your android settings so will not work on other image because it+s much more complex, that's why I didn't mentioned yet.
I created these utilities to help people complete some tasks faster/easier without having to resort to ADB or other methods. The purpose of these programs is to assist the user fine tune their watch & add functionality.
Amazfit PACE Tuner (Windows)
Amazfit PACE Tuner (Android APP for Watch)
FEATURES
PACE Watch APP
* Display enabled Keyboards on watch
* Switch between Minuum Keyboard & Stock Huami
* Test typing keyboard area
* Control WiFi & Bluetooth
PACE Tuner Windows utility
* Check for ADB devices
* Install Minuum Keyboard on watch
Since I am not the author of the Minuum Keyboard I will not be including it in the package (sorry). You will need to search online (plenty of places to download it from) and download the APK.
Download Minuum-Wear.apk and place it in the same directory as the PACE Windows utility. Make sure the naming of the file is as exactly mentioned earlier in bold.
Click on the "Install Minuum" button in the Windows utility and wait for the install to complete.
* Display PACE watch data (device name & total km's ran)
* Display Watch and paired phone Bluetooth Information
Tweaks
* # Root required # Allow 3rd party software to be installed directly on the watch (you would need a file manager already installed on the watch)
* Toggle between show battery % screen while charging or the watchface (you may have to wake the screen once after making changes to see them)
* # Experimental # Enable find iPhone feature from watch (works by default on Android, so only use for iPhone users)
* # Experimental # Enable Haptic feedback (app needs to support this for it to work)
* Super Brightness - Sets watch to maximum allowed brightness. Manual 'L5' allows for a value of '180' in the settings. By enabling this option your setting will be '255' (maximum allowable).
* You can force restart your watch by double clicking on the PACE watch picture (typically bottom-right)
* Kill all ADB connections (in case Windows get confused or something)
I currently own and test the utilities on a Windows 7 (x64) based machine only and a PACE International version on stock firmware v1.3.6d

Frequently asked questions
Q: I am trying to launch the utility on the watch but I am getting errors/exceptions.
A: You have to use the Windows PACE Tuner utility to install the APK since it elevates privileges required for the app to run properly. If you try to simply sideload it it will fail!
Q: I have some great ideas or need more modifications - can you please do them asap?
A: Unfortunately for you I am not a 'proper' developer. I do this as a hobby on my (limited) spare time, so I can't commit to time or my abilities to be able to do what you imagine. Your ideas are of course welcome - I will do my best, but I will do it at my time.

Could be because another service is already using ADB. Try hitting the big red "RESET ADB" button on the top right, wait a few seconds then try the "Check" again
It doesn't work... And pacefied ROM auto installation doesn't work either... It's probably the same issue...
Don't know why... There's no service running adb... Manual installation works for pacefied Rom, but you do not have a manual procedure...

Are you running the app from a folder with a patch that includes spaces, like "c:\users\my name\app"? Try moving the app to C:\ and make sure you have systemwide adb (adb.exe path is includes in $PATH).

Good point! If you have not declared the paths in Windows, calling adb commands from other folders will not work. Let us know if you need help with the declaration.
I had to move the program to "c:\adb" folder to get it to work. Then it worked fine. Enabling "* # Root required # Allow 3rd party software to be installed directly on the watch (you would need a file manager already installed on the watch)" allowed me to be able to update Watch Droid Assistant through the watch. Thanks for the program!
