Funny guy hey?
Go to System Settings - About Tablet, scroll down until you see "CyanogenMod version"
I am asking because ad-hoc tethering was only recently implemented into the CM9 for Touchpad. Updating your ROM could be the first step to take in troubleshooting the problem.

Bought the Tablet used on ebay.Sorry I'm new to this completely.It's Classicnerd
build number is classic_tenderloin-eng 4.03 IML74k eng.leoisright.20120319.184132 test keys

If you want to stick with Classicnerd, it's at 4.04.5 now; latest is from 06-05-12. Updating it might help; I'm not familiar with Classicnerd. If you want something more updated, try CM9 Nightlies. I believe CM9 Alphas still have wifi issues.

Can you link me?I bought the tablet used installed with Classic nerd.Thanks

Right now I am running Oat CM9, and I highly recommend it. Just reboot into recovery and install .zip from SD card.
I don't even have wireless, just an unlimited data plan that I tether to 100% of the time... it's like I have a 3G touchpad because I am never without my phone :good:

What do I have to download in order to install it from the SD?I'm in recovery right now.Like I said in the previous post,I'm a complete noob.

Download the ROM and GAPPS on your PC
Boot your TouchPad into Recovery
Connect your TouchPad to PC with a microUSB cable
On the TouchPad, navigate to "-mounts and storage" with the volume buttons and press the home button to select.
Navagate to "-mount USB storage" and select
On your PC you should see the prompt for connecting a USB drive called HP TouchPad, click "Open folder to view files"
Copy "whateverromyoudownloaded.zip" to the SD card without placing it into a folder
Unmount the TouchPad from your PC via "Safely remove hardware and eject media"
On the TouchPad select "-Unmount" and navigate to "-+++++Go Back+++++" and select that too
Navigate to -"install zip from sdcard" and select it
You will be in another menu where you will select "-choose zip from sd card"
Navigate to "whateverromyoudownloaded.zip" and select it
In the following menu navigate to "-Yes" and select it
You will see the update installing
Once finished navigate to "-+++++Go Back+++++" and select it
Use the same install zip method to flash GAPPS
In the main menu navigate to "-advanced" and select it
Navigate to "-Wipe Dalvik Cache" and select it
In the following menu navigate to "-Yes - Wipe Dalvik Cache" and select it
The Dalvik Cache will then be wiped and you will see a new menu where you will navigate to "-+++++Go Back+++++"
In the following menu you will have "-reboot system now" highlighted, select it
You have updated the ROM.
You will now boot into Moboot where you will select "boot CyanogenMod"
Done!

Thanks!It worked

what in theee hell am i doing wrong? :( NT 8GB

just picked up a NT 8gb...
it's running v1.4.2 but i still got it rooted...i got Android Play Store (market) working... i installed the 'NT Hidden Settings' app and selected allow installs from uknown sources...yet, this doesn't seem to stick when i exit the setting...so this may be my problem #1
problem #2...i have read tons of posts from this and other sites and i can't for the life of me get CWM installed so that i can install CM7 or any other rom...a lot of the links i hit are for just the 16gb version and some say i should downgrade to 1.4, yet there is a method for rooting if on 1.4.2...very confusing...
do i need to downgrade to v1.4? what is the easiest method...
i currently have the recovery flash apk, google apps and cm7 on an sd card but this really doesn't do me any good if i can't get into CWM...
btw, if i select the .apk from withing the NT, it tells me that it's not a supported file type...
*heeellllpppp*
Read my faq, setup adb and come back when you have done that.

My reading is that the 8gig never was 1.4.0 so you can't downgrade. You say you are rooted and then ask about rooting. I have never had NT hidden settings stick. I would set it, leave it on the screen, hit home, search my file browser run it and use that to install my apk. This left NT hidden settings running and worked for me.
Good Luck!
oh, the reason for the confusion while searching is most threads were started before anyone dreamed of an 8gig and they have not been updated to reflect that it now exist. Most probably never will be updated. Look for specific 8gig info and assume if it is not spelled out that it does not apply to you.

Use adb push command or adb install to push the recovery flasher app, once done use adb kill-server and unmount safetly nook tablet from windows. Then in your nook tablet search for the app an open it once there let me know. You have to wait 10 seconds after you click on the flash recovery button for precaution and before you click on the reboot to recovery button.

well, i was defin frozen.... held the power button and that got me back in to the NT...no CM7 installed...
almost feel like returning this and spending the extra $50 bucks for the 16gb version and not have to go through the stuggle...
is there something different i should be doing besides just installing the cm7 zip??? i don't get why it's not running...

try wiping data, cache and dalvik cache and try again.
Verify the md5 of the file to make sure the file is not corrupted.

no dice... tried that....
now i can still get into CWM from the power+N button press but it's still not letting me install..just hangs...
if i just power up, the NT hangs on the "Read Forever" screen...
i think i need to somehow revert back to the B&N rom and return this thing...

Did you make a backup of your stock rom before attempt to flash cm7? If so flash that if not you will have to download official stock 1.4.2 from B&N support web page, copy it to your sdcard and make it boot (like the acclaim_update.zip process) it should flash automatically.
~ Veronica
Sent from my Nook Tablet using xda premium
no, didn't.... i'm an ape and totally messed this thing up....
if i grab the official 1.4.2 from B&N support, i can just flash that from CWM then, if i place it on the root of the sd card?
not sure why i couldn't get any of this to work...have used CWM before and messed with quite a few roms on my samsung epic pretty easily...

Known Issues:
After 4 touches, touch driver freaks out
Epic Citadel ( Unreal Engine 3) FC on touch.
Notified Mik_os about them (something went wrong from 4.1.2 ->4.2.2)hopefully we will see them squashed when and if he finds time....
Reserved for happyness. Thank you sooo much!
Thank you! im downloading right now :fingers-crossed:
Thanks Demetris.
Couple of 1st impressions:
1) The ROM seems to have reversed the mounting for internal (emmc) and external sd cards. Is this by design or is it a bug?
2) I really liked the large status bar icons in your CM10 rom as they are easier on the eyes. Is there any way to make the icons (clock, battery, etc) larger in this rom?

All data is defaulted to internal sdcard by design and imo this is the correct way and if you search around you will find that when otherway around when there isnt one ext-sdcard in the nook the mounting has bugs.
How to add and remove tablet quick setting, I can't find the option for it, the rom only allow me edit the default JB tiles and layouts
Because the sdcard was mounted as internal storage, so all data and installed apps will disappeared. How to reversed it without reinstall again.
I currently have your other ROM installed (SGT7+CM10+Cherry Picks), can I update to this new one without a full wipe? And also will the sdcard switched to internal storage mess up the currently installed apps like the previous posters have mentioned?

It is under development options, which may not be enabled.
To enable it go to about tablet and tap build number 7 times (from memory) I think.
It has been hidden by default for some reason.

The EMMC/SD swap has made it so that games and other things that require the SD space will not install.
EDIT: Yeah, the apps themselves will install to "internal", but wish to store their massive obb data on the SD card which now only reads as 1GB.

You obviously need to repartition your nook.
Runs beautifully for me. Just to let you know, if you drain it to 0 and it turns off, and your nook cable has broken (as they easily do), it will take ALL NIGHT for it to turn back on with trickle charge. I plugged it into a cell phone charger, which didn't work at all, but then used a cable for external 2.5" hard drives, the type that has two usb plugs, one for power and the other for power and data, and left it overnight.
THAT worked. Just sayin'
But this seems to be the case with the slow charging (whether Nook cable or regular usb) with ALL of the 4.2 roms that I have tried (even 4.1). Oh well. Not a problem for me, but just in case someone else has that problem.
On the other hand, I have not used a rom on the nook yet which I like better or has been more stable for me than this one. Good job demetris!

Sorry, it wasn't as obvious to me because it was never an issue with any other rom that was ever released. ever. Thanks for your help. I do enjoy your mods and the time you put into it.
Far and away my favorite ROM. There's nothing out there that's as stable for me as the SGT/Cherry Pick ROM.
Re: [ROM]{WIP} SGT7+CM10.1+Cherry Picks,By meghd00t. 31/01/13
Meghd00t- will you be updating based on kuzmas 2/06 release? I ask because I saw you released a kernel in that thread, and I was wondering if it should be flashed over this ROM, etc. I prefer to stay with your versions as they are always speedier for me. I have noticed, I am again experiencing that when plugging in to charge, I have to turn on the screen until it says or shows charging, though this is a very minor issue. Thanks again!

[HOW TO] Get Mozilla Firefox OS working on i777

YOU WILL NEED:
The B2G nandroid
Siyah JB
The b2g_i777_keyfix.zip file attached below (created/modded by myself)
1. Hook up your i777 to your PC and put it into USB storage mode (if it doesn't do that automatically)
2. un-7zip the B2G nandroid and place the b2g-0602 folder in the /clockworkmod/backup/ folder on your external SD (create the backup folder if necessary)
3. Place the two zips at the root of your SD card for easiness later on
4. Boot to CWM and install the Siyah Kernel JB zip
5. Reboot recovery
6. Follow the steps in the thread with the B2G nandroid download, although they may not work for you.
6(a). If those steps do not work, attempt to clone your current ROM to the second ROM under dual booting options OR create a nandroid backup of your current ROM (so you can easily go back to it)
6(b). After that, restore nandroid b2g-0602 from backup (this will wipe the first ROM so be careful)
7. Reboot recovery
8. flash b2g_i777_keyfix.zip to make the volume rocker work as the home key (as the capacitive keys do not work as is)
Q&A
HOW WILL I CHANGE MY VOLUME LEVELS?
You can change your volume levels from settings
IS THIS NICE AND PERFECT?
Nope, not at all. If anything this is a step down from Android currently. The DPI is screwed up, navigation is odd because of inability to use capacitive keys, lack of Google sync, and this overall isn't a daily driver.
SO WHY WOULD I WANT TO USE THIS?
I don't know? Why don't you tell me?
WHAT DOESN'T WORK?
Everything that is listed as not working in the i9100 thread, calls probably don't work, camera doesn't work, and probably many other things
WHAT DOES WORK?
SMS for sure works, WIFI works, data might work
SPECIAL THANKS TO EVERYONE WHO HAS WORKED ON PORTING THIS OPERATING SYSTEM TO THE I9100!
Why not reserve a post for stuff and things.
Screenshots can be found here!
Please read this! I would not recommend flashing anything not meant for our device in heimdall or Odin. Please stick to the nandroid, where you can easily go back to recovery.

Sadly I do not know how to take screenshots in Firefox OS! I can, however, link to a thread with screenshots of Firefox OS at a similar DPI and whatnot... thanks for the suggestion!
Yeah, it's pretty interesting to say the least. Not good enough to be a daily driver (or even close), but it still works okay (no random reboots, etc.)

Well on the website there are build instructions for this, but really no downloads (unless you count what I believe is a desktop VM image).
Basically Mozilla uses Github and lets you pull things from their Github (via terminal) to build for your desired device.

[ITUTORIAL][FAQ]ViperDNA ROM Discussion

ViperDNA ROM Discussion & Support Thread​
Due to the popularity of the ViperDNA rom, and wanting to better assist the users, we are opening this thread to allow for non development related questions and discussion, support questions, advice, help and how to, all that good stuff.
I am not the developer of ViperDNA, I'm simply maintaining this thread so that the main developer is not overwhelmed with too much general discussion and not able to focus on the development aspect of the rom. Many of you know me, my niche has been and will continue to be trouble shooting, support, and helping new users get started in the custom world of Android.
In the thread, you can post questions about installations, discussions of potential bugs as well as user errors, and general Q&A related to the ViperDNA ROM. I will be updating this OP to look much better, and will also be adding sections and subsections with important links.
I urge all of our users to participate and help out with this thread, this is a community effort not just me alone.
ViperDNA 1.2.0 Info
ROM NEEDS A CLEAN INSTALL
Instructions for Clean Install.
Note S On users will want a copy of rom zip on their computer desktop and a copy on the DNA's sdcard, s off only needs the rom zip file on the sdcard
1. Make a Nandroid backup just in case
2. Reboot to Recovery
3. Wipe these INSIDE recovery: Factory Reset, System, Dalvic cache
4. Choose the flash zip menu and select zip file from the sdcard and install the rom
5. S-Off users say yes to the reboot after installation is complete.
*5b. S-On Users will need to extract the rom zip file in a desktop folder and find the file boot.img and copy to their working adb/fastboot folder (For me it would be C:/Android-sdk/Platform-tools)
*5c. Right click while holding shift, in a blank space in the folders where fastboot.exe is located and choose "open command window here" from the right click menu
Run the command "fastboot flash boot boot.img" without the quotes and press enter when its done type "fastboot reboot" without quotes and press enter.
That's It, Setup is Complete
Note: Factory Reset in recovery means wiping the data partition except for media (internal storage, or sdcard) and wiping cache.
Radio and Firmware Information: You do not have to be on the latest firmware (2.04) to flash Viper 1.2.0. I recommend that you achieve s off and try the 2.0.4 radios if battery life is a concern especially because one will work better for your unique phone's hardware and network, signal strength and usage pattern.
Kernel: ONLY RUN THE KERNEL THAT'S INSTALLED IN THE ROM. Zone also has a stock 2.04 kernel posted in the android development section.
Do NOT run custom kernels with this rom until custom 2.04 kernels available, which will be after HTC releases the kernel source.
1.2.0 Important Tips
For instant help you can use the IRC Channel: http://chat.andirc.net:8080/?channels=#droid-dna
Just click on Docnok63 and select PM
For Google maps to work you need to open settings/location and check to enable the new Google location settings. There's now four options instead of three.

I have two questions. How can I add more apps on the home screans. And is there anyway to change up the app drawer. I prefer scrolling vertically rather then horizontal. Everything is running perfectly just looking to tweak things a little.
Re: [INFO][FAQ]ViperDNA ROM Discussion
I'm not sure if this is the rom or the app but when I plug in my otg usb into my phone SwiftKey constantly shows crash error reports... I'm not sure if you guys have seen this before or not... It does not effect moving files or anything it is just weird...

I have two questions. How can I add more apps on the home screans. And is there anyway to change up the app drawer. I prefer scrolling vertically rather then horizontal. Everything is running perfectly just looking to tweak things a little.

Long press the app in the app drawer and move it to the home screen.
Install a different launcher, I highly recommend nova, apex is another good one

I have some similar issues too, but not until after I unmount the drive.

Exactly what I was looking for thank you! Switched to apex and will have to tweak it until its just right.

The error reports on mine come after un-mounting. I am not sure yet as to the cause. I had the same issue prior to rooting

Im having the same problem and after some research it looks like people are having the same issues on stock and custom roms.
I'm using stickmount pro. What I've found is that after unmounting or removing the device a reboot is required because my apps go haywire. The only time I've seen similar issues is when people use something like apps2sd and their phone boots before the sdcard is mounted, so the shortcuts on the homescreen or widgets disappear and the app force closes all over the place and disappears from the app drawer.
Obviously the problem with us is not because the apps are installed on an external directory, but the symptoms are very similar.
I will be doing more research and its going to be a focus of mine. I'll keep you guys and gals updated and would love to hear any input or see links that you run across involving DNA and OTG.
Something else with OTG is that when I unmount the USB drive in stickmount, and then I unplug the drive, I get the warning message about the drive being removed while in use or something like that. So its almost like stickmount isn't unmounting, it just thinks its unmounting, and that improper unmounting is what sends the directories haywire.

I get an error on connecting otg about not being a valid charging source. On disconnect, several processes crash, which trace to specific apps, including Battery Monitor Widget Pro, Pure Messenger and Gmail Label Notifier. If I disable those apps, then no crash, so I'm pretty sure this is not ROM related.

Interesting indeed... I've also had this same issue with the SwiftKey error while utilizing otg. Thanks for looking into this Charlie.

Used the search in the other thread but didn't quite find the answer I was looking for.
Do I start with 1.1.0 and then use the OTA to update to 1.1.3? Should I just wait till 1.2 comes out and then flash, if it makes any difference?

Download 1.1.0 from the original page.
Download this zip file to PREVENT the VERIZON ota. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2149417
Install 1.1.0. reboot.
IMMEDIATELY after it boots reboot into recovery and install the zip file above.
then boot and let venom take you through all 3 updates on it's own.

If I'm on wi-fi only and will be on wi-fi only for a few months, do I have to worry about the disable ota verizon part? Just curious really, sounds easy enough

You really don't have to worry about it. Worse thing that would happen is that it auto downloads, it can't install on a custom recovery. And 1.1.3 has the ota removed so you don't even have to worry about it installing.

[Q] Rooted and Flashed with CM 11. "Can't play videos"?

~EDIT~
Recently I rooted and flashed CM 11. Any time I try to go and play a video, whether it's from the internal storage, sd card, or stream from a website, I just get "Can't play video."
Does anyone know of any reasons why this would be happening and how how to fix it? Or any suggestions? Should I reflash?
Also, usually when you hold down the Droid Home button you get a list of all recent apps as well as a link to the Task Manager at the bottom. There is no such link now though. Is this an Android Kitkat thing or a CM thing? How do I get to the Task Manager?

There seem to be pretty significant shortcuts/features missing and I can't tell if thats because it's kitkat, or because it's CM.
Example:
1.) Sound - ~EDIT~ Found "Sound" button. Wishing it had "vibrate" mode but at least now I can Toggle normal/mute.
2.) Brightness - On this one, there is a Button that takes you to a brightness bar, which is fine... but it won't let me select "Auto". It seems more like a glitch than anything when I tap it.

Thank you ^_^ Fair enough, She can definitely live without them.
Now its just a matter of understanding why videos can't be played. It wouldn't have anything to do with which gApps I used would it?

Videos cannot be played because of a kernel bug. The CM11 Official Nightlies have this issue fixed.
If you are running the official CM11 nightlies, what build number is it? Could be a regression.
I apologize,
Ive been checking for updates periodically, but Im not very familiar with what nightlies are. I figure these are updates/patches that are done on a nightly bases.
Right now my CyanogenMod Version is
11-20131220-UNOFFICIAL-acclaim
Build Number:
cm_acclaim-userdebug 4.4.2 KOT49H e9e3ba9b67 test-keys
Thanks to your post, I went ahead into "About Tablet" and then into CyanogenMod Updates to take a closer look. Since flashing CM11 Ive only been checking "New Versions (Stable only)", but I didn't even realize you can change which updates you can search for... so again I thanks to your suggestion I changed it to "Update types: New Versions (incl, Nightlies)"
Three options became available... so I downloaded cm-11-20140218-NIGHTLY.
Should I install?
I'd suggest trying the M3 snapshot: cm-11-20140210-SNAPSHOT-M3-acclaim.zip (http://download.cyanogenmod.org/get/jenkins/58498/cm-11-20140210-SNAPSHOT-M3-acclaim.zip).
Awesome,
As always, thank you very much
Now, Is that something I could just download and run straight from the tablet main UI? Or would I download it, put into same bootSD card I used to flash CM, reboot nook into recovery and then flash the snapshot zip? Either way isfine, just want to know which way to go.

You have to flash the zip via recovery (either TWRP or CWM, depends on what you have installed).
Make sure to do these things while in recovery, before flashing the zip. Do *not* touch /rom, /factory, /recovery:
1. wipe cache partition;
2. wipe dalvik-cache;
3. wipe data partition;
4. wipe system partition;
5. NOW you can flash the zip.
