[ROM][PORT] *** NookieJoyOS! v1.2.2b *** [6/14] - Nook Color Android Development

Hello Again Nookers!
I present to you NookieJoyOS!​
Using Mirage's CM7 as a base I ported over the Defy 1.2.2 version of the JOYOS ROM. All I did was port it, thanks to the CM team et al as well as the JOYOS team for this rom. This rom is a straight emulation of the iOS look and feel.
Take it as it is, not sure how much or any tweaking I plan on making to this rom. However, if there are updates from the JOYOS team. I'll try my best to keep the rom up to date. I did this for fun, just to see if I could and it worked!
Tips & Issues?
-Recommended to format /system & /data as well as clearing /cache before flashing this new rom
-This comes with market pre-installed so no need to flash gapps
-For soft buttons download Button-Savior from market. Or you can go into settings and enable tablet tweaks for CM soft buttons.
-Some JOYOS apps has chinese characters in them, not sure what I can do about that Fixed!
-Recent apps screen shows kinds of, what's that technical term for it... oh yeah "wonky"
-There is an annoying "System Update" pop-up stating that this is not an official JOYOS release. To get rid of it, just remove "JOYSystemUpdate.apk" from /system/apps and it should stop. Or rename it to "JOYSystemUpdate.apk.bak". However you will now get a Force Close when trying to enter the System Update menu (not that you need it anyways) Removed!
-Please report anything else you find so I can post it here for other users as well
-See second post for CHANGELOG
And last but not least. Love it or hate it, just hope you enjoy it!

Sweet! Its great to see so much development going on still.
If i may though, have any screen shots you could post for us?
DOH! Never mind... I missed the coming soon... Heh

---

Based on your post in the other thread I have to ask, are the screen shots in 240 or in 160 DPI? The "About This Phone" screenshot is making me ask.
Also, what did you note as different between the JOYOS v1.1.9 and the JOYOS v1.2.2?
Regardless, thank you very much for this!

It's in 240 dpi. The only way for it to fill up the whole screen correctly is to set it to 300 dpi. But then the icons and screens gets blurry. It's sharper at 240 for me so i left it there. I'm sure there's edits I can make in the framework-res.apk, but I haven't gotten that far yet.
Really didn't use it much to notice any difference between 1.1.9 and 1.2.2. But there are info on the updates on their website. You an find it at www.joyos.cn. It's in chinese so use google translate to translate it.

I have been using MIUI for quite a while on my NC and this looks very similar. Can someone tell me what the differences are between this and MIUI?

---

Looks good (excepting those alignment issues you mentioned might need a framework edit) but something really needs to be done about the update errors detecting this is an unapproved port! I've attached a screen shot so you can see what I mean.

There's nothing that states this is an "unapproved port". It just states that the rom is not an Official release form JOYOS themselves. I'll see what I can do to disable that on next update.
EDIT: If you want to avoid the "System update" error that keeps popping up, just remove "JOYSystemUpdate.apk" from /system/apps and it should stop. Or rename it to "JOYSystemUpdate.apk.bak". However you will now get a Force Close when trying to enter the System Update menu (not that you need it anyways) I'll remove it on next update whenever there is one.

It runs pretty smooth so far. How do they theme this wherever it is that it came from(China?)
It looks strangely like ios..

You may want to use the Atrix port by stevendeb25. It does not have this issue and is fully translated(chinese in notification clear button only). Great work though. Really like it in the Nook.

---

FWIW, I converted it to dualboot primary with the cache scripts, and I works like a charm. Nice!

this looks like iOS wayyy too much

lolol! I feel the same way. It was more of a, can I port it kind of deal for me. And it worked. So thought I'd share it for the few that do enjoy it. Options never hurt.
My kids like it though!

Well, that's the idea, right?
Yo racks, your script posts are awesome, btw. That's the true spirit of this place, right there.

Well i forgot to post what Mirage build this was based off. So guess i'll tell u now and update OP later.
The base I used was Mirage 5-09 build I believe. Not sure why I didn't use the latest one. But on next update I will.
Now to answer your question. I would recommend a full wipe /system & /data before installing this rom. However since this was based off a Mirage build. You could go ahead and try just flashing over the Mirage build and then wipe /cache and /dalvik-cache and see what happens?
Let me know how it went.
Thanks,
Racks

Have you had a chance to look at the Atrix port e07015 mentioned?
