I have been using [ROM] SGT7+CM10+Cherry Picks,By meghd00t. New 24/11 Multitouched! on my wife's 16gb nook for a bit over a month and really like the results. I wanted to give it a go on two new 8GB NT's that are in the mail but I saw that very few ROMs were actually supported. Is the warning thread just drastically out of date? Others seem to have had success with 8GB and that ROM, but there are 68 pages to look through.
Thanks in advance!

I have the same question
I am running CM7 on a Nook Color, but have picked up 2 NT8's and am trying to figure out what to use.
The real problem is that each device seems to have a mind of its own. Some 8GB work fine some don't. However the same applies to 16gb versions also. Some refuse to boot from SD without being plugged in.
To break out my geek hat, and because I'm having a BSG marathon, basically the nooks act like different versions of skin job cylons.

This is a good rom..im currently using it on my NT

I'm in the same boat coming over from the Color. My 8GB NT should be here next week. I have been running CM10 on the Color but am leaning at going with the CM7 mentioned above initially on the NT. I'm very confused with all the warnings the OP mentioned but seem to see people running many different roms on the 8gb NT. I'm also confused by the firmware updates for 5 touch and 10 touch and how that affects what roms and recovery options you will then work. I'm not even sure why I would need more than 2 touch. Hopefully we can get some updated guidance on this thread.
what are the specs on the NEW NT your going to get???

well what are the specs on the NEW NT your going to get..(is it rooted?If so, does it have a rom already flashed on it? If so, what rom?and what recovery is it running?) dont tell us about the NC cuz that would be on another forum.
If the nook tablet is stock then you have nothing to worry about.
The one I'm getting is factory refurbished through B&N. Only reason I mentioned the NC was so that you knew I had some experience with rooting/flashing, but far from an expert.

I just read my previous post and I sounded like a jerk...didn't mean for it to sound that way...I would like to apologize (sorry bro)...but on the other hand If you're coming from stock none of that (firmware,5 touch stuff) shouldn't effect you....

8Gb NT options
I just recently purchased 2 8GB NTs during the Black Friday rush and from what I've seen there are several good options(roms) that work with our model. They typically spell it out in the 1st post, but sometimes you have to skim through all the posts to find the one where someone asks the question directly. I haven't delved into the touch(2/5) issue much, but it seems like some games are designed to utilize the 5 touch feature. I came across an app paired with one of the roms that tells you whether you're at the 2 touch or 5 touch firmware and then will potentially give you the option to upgrade on the spot...pretty painless.

I think I'm going to wait awhile on mine. I'm beginning to see others having certain issues that a n00by like me would probably not enjoy All & all I'm happy with my rooted 1.40 Nook. I may just wait for the SD card version of CM7 to play with it. I sure do admire these guys that know how to work with this code and develop OS systems Sure wish I knew how to do this stuff.
I'm perfectly content with the way I currently have my NT set up. Rooted, OTA-blocked, using an alternate launcher, and having a shortcut to the default launcher if I want to read something or browse the Nook Store.
Now if CM9 becomes available on the NT, I might have to give that a shot.
I think some of the main features that a custom ROM such as CM7 can provide are bluetooth and multi-touch (which isn't available yet but currently under development). I'm not sure that's available for a rooted stock ROM. I saw some video of someone using a PS3 controller to play emulated games on their Nook Color so I can imagine that would be a great freature to add on.
I'm going to wait until they do further testing with CM7, at least until they get to a beta stage but I think it's the way to go for me.
I'm just waiting for a sure way to access the nook library. I have some magazine subscriptions that I don't wanna give up.
One of the main reasons I got the Nook Tab is because I saw that people were working on getting CM7/9 going on it. I had a $250 gift card from work to B&N, so it was a winning situation for me. I doubt I would have bought it if CM7 hadn't been on the horizon. I've actually never used it stock, I had it rooted and all B&N stuff stripped off within hours of buying it.
I definitely recommend flashing CM7 unless you are completely married to the stock B&N Stuff, then wait for the SD install method. Flashing CM7 is easier than most of the steps required to root, side load, fix unreadable menu's, etc, all the dumb crap I had to d to make this thing usable.
Almost everything is available in the market. No sideloading, no finding apps with your browser and tricking the market, almost everything works. All my important apps and favorite games have worked with no issues.
Menu's are all standardized, everything is readable, all options are open, just fantastic having all those little pieces working in every app with no fuss or hacks.
Rebooting is so much faster, not sure if it was all the apps I had or what but my reboots took forever with my stock rooted, now are 3 times quicker.
The thing just feels snappier, not sure if it is a placebo effect or not, but definitely feels faster.
Overall it feels like a tablet instead of a hacked e-reader. There may be some bugs that surface and a few things are being looking to, but so far so good
CM7 was the reason why I'm going to get a NOOK... well and the books lol
I installed the B & N app from the market and everything works great. I have been able to use my existing account to purchase books i have been able to move books over onto the Sd card in .epub format and read them. Make sure to fix permissions andcormate cache anddevlick cache if you are updating from first CM7 alpha.
Yeah i love cm7
I was nervouse when i first did it but it turned out all right in the end. Now ive got CWM and titaniumbsckup functionality and i can flash any rom or anything. Not only is cm7 a great new version of the OS but it opens the door to all the other roms that you could ever want to install. Only complaint is that the HD youtube videos lag, but the devs know about it and are fixing it. Id highly recommend it. Hope you take the plunge!

the only thing that worries me is that I have 1 week left to decide if i want to buy the 2 year warranty. what would happen if i need to send in for repairs if it has cm7?
Lined up all the tools I might need if disaster were to strike. Stuck the zip onto an SD card & went for it. I'm not looking back. Warranty? I won't be needing no stinkin' warranty.

I installed CM7 and messed around with it for a day or so. It worked great - with the exception of streaming video. Where HULU and Vulkano (slingbox-like DVR that works with my Directv) were smooth as silk with rooted NT on CWM, the CM7 vers. video would briefly "hang/stutter" from time to time - a bit annoying. Others have reported this same issue, and I know that the Devs are working on this.
Also, I lost all of my B&N stuff - not a huge loss - but think I may wait for the SD card version which, if I understand correctly, will allow me to hang on to that.
That said, I reverted back to the stock 1.4.0 using the "magiccard" method, and then re-rooted with Albert's SD card method (vers 4.50). So, assuming the unit keeps working (will boot,) does anyone know if there is a way for B&N to tell that a unit has ever been on CM7/rooted? I thought the magiccard method basically wiped the partitions and put the stock rom back on.
Thanks! Bob

I purchased my nook tab specifically to tinker with and have no investment in BnN ecosystem. So far I've have some really frustrating problems that took a week or two of research and tinkering to work out. It has been a great learning experience. I now know a little about the inner workings of the Android OS and have a functional tablet to play with while the wife watches Netflix. Getting CM 7 working gave me a real sense of accomplishment. Before getting the tab for xmas I only had experience rooting my Droid 3 (one click method at that), So I am a real n00b too. I just went into this wanting to tackle my own problems. My advice, if you like what you've got, don't fix what ain't broke. - yes I am a hillbilly thankyaverymuch!
2nd post in xda sent from nook tab CM7
I'll try it out if/when an SD bootable version comes out. I read and buy a lot of graphic novels and comic collections that are only viewable via the built-in reader.
For awhile I was just following on the developments and waiting till a stable version was released of CM7 because I was able to do what was needed with stock + root. The other day I decided to do some catching up in the NT scene and figured the CM7 Alpha12 looked pretty stable, so I gave it a shot. I am really glad that I did this, the NT just runs so much better than it did using the stock firmware + root. I am loving CM7 Alpha12 so far. If you were skeptical about installing CM7 due to it's Alpha status and possible bugs, as long as you haven't invested a ton of money into the B&N Store or stream a lot of video content. I think you should give it a shot because TEAM-B has been doing a great job.
Changed my mind and glad I did! !!! Loving CM7
I think I am going to wait for the SD version.
I think after a stable method to root/ block/ flash comes out that us non-devs can execute with consistent success I will try CM7. I am rooted - Thanks Indirect! - but I also had problems with the last time I tried CM7. At this point it's just not worth the extra work to try and fix a borked NT. Having said that, Veronica's ROM here:http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1512373 is pretty awesome looking and I can't wait to try it out.

put cm9 on nook tablets, all of the sudden both went into boot loop, don't know to get out. Someone said that the "ROM has a time limit" & suggested "mod delete"...what's that & how...
Was going to give 1 nook tablet to a nun who'll leave for Ghana soon, but this happened...
2 questions:
1. should I leave it in stock mode...this nun does not know how to fix it...besides, she'll be in Ghana...don't know if she'll have access to internet.
2. if not, which version of cm...cm7 or cm9 should I put it on for her... reason for rooting & putting cm7 or cm9 is so I can utilize most if not all of 16gb of the nook tablet...since I heard that BN only allows 1gb of storage...
Thank you & God bless

Moved to Q&A
Don't go with CM9. It is really not for production yet. Also CM9 has a timer and will stop working every month or so and you have to download and install the next version. I am running the SD version of CM7 and it works well. I have heard the internal is also stable.
B&N will reformat your partitions if you are stock so you get more storage. Probably the best route if the tablets will only be used as readers. Then, maybe the simple touch was a better choice. Way longer battery life. If any hope of internet the CM7 will give a better tablet experience.
You also can add an SD card for additional storage and the sd card can be swapped around and one can be preloaded and mailed..

This is bad advice in my opinion. CM9 is plenty stable enough, its more a question of whether the missing features will affect a given user and this will vary from user to user. Honestly, I think anyone who is flashing roms should at least check it out.

In the OP it was stated the NTs were going overseas with some nuns who are not tech savey and may not even have internet. What do they do when CM9 expires?
Why does it expire? I rooted the HP Touchpad for my brother & I don't think it has same problem...or at least he hasn't complained to me...
so why is there an expiration for the Nook Tablet? & is there a way of fixing it?

Completely different developers. CM9 is open source so people can use the code to adapt it for other devices. The developers for the nook have decided to make it expire. Its still a rom in development though so anyone using it is likely checking the forums pretty regularly. Its not exactly difficult to reflash the rom once a month.
Also, just to nitpick a bit, you didn't root the touchpad as its not a Linux based device. You likely pushed the custom bootloader moboot and then pushed the custom version of android, cm9, allowing it to have dual boot setup.

Go to the general thread thread 1059 is a link for CM7 internal. Has been fine for me and it has deep sleep and the wifi doesn't appear to die. Stay away from CM9 in your case. Rooted stock would also be acceptable.
Bill
I'm sorry to ask this but actually it's hard for me to see what I'm gonna gain by installing a custom ROM.
I'm saying this, being the owner of two android mobiles, fully rooted and with different ROM's in it.
I'm also one of the unfortunately who bought the 8gb version, which is harder and have few options for a non-stock ROM. I'm rooted, but seeing how faulty some ROM's look to me, I'm still worried that moving to a custom ROM will only give me problems instead of resolving stuff I don't like in the stock. But then, I look at the 16gb version and there isn't more abundance in options, maybe some things are just easier.
So please, tell me that I'm wrong, that going for CM9 is no worst that staying with the stock and so on that I'll find the light.
Cheers
Well I'd have to say I am enjoying CM9 much more than the stock ROM. If you still aren't sure, I would just make a bootable SD card with CM7 or CM9 and try that out for a while. That way you still have your stock ROM untouched internally.
I second the SD cm7 option. I did that for a while. Soon discovered I wasn't using the stock so I experimented with all the ROMs available. I liked the cm9 that crashed as it had the location by wifi working. Cm7 SD does as well. Since a couple of weeks I am running the April 24 build got cm7 internal. When cm9 is stable I will switch.
Bill
Definitely a good idea using the SD card idea to check it out. That's what i ended up doing and now I'm running CM9 internal (the most recent 2.x. kernel one). It's marked as an alpha but it's still really good. From what i've seen on the forum, they are still working on some major fixes on the 3.x kernel.
I am similar in that i have the DroidX and have tried out most of the major custom roms over the last 2 years.
I ended up trying out CM7 on an SD for about 2 days. Then loaded up CM9 internally and haven't used stock or cm7 since. I find ICS to be a much nicer tablet OS.
But my use of the Nook may be diff than yours. So check out the SD versions and decide if u can live with the issues each may have.
Sent from my NookTablet using Tapatalk 2
I tried for a while the CM7 on SD. Maybe it was the SD, but the experience was very laggy, not smoth at all...
Since I'm with the 8GB version I can only install the CM9 internally, but I'm not sure after reading the thread if by doing it in the 8GB I can revert back to stock easily. And this is my main fear, that I'm jumping into an unstable thing and then I can't go back. So if there is some stupidity in this remark please let me know.
On another point I see people eagerly to move to the new google tablet and this is sad, because only with a lot of people we can get ROM's and developers. If that would happen and if we could install a custom and stable CM rom this whole idea of mass migration from one tablet to the other would be halted.
A small question: video playback in the CM9? Is it any good? I do travel a lot and use the tablet to check some movies.
If we can revert to stock after installing the CM9 on the 8GB I'll definitely try this weekend.
Cheers
I'm in the same boat. I rooted my SGS2, but I haven't seen any real big reason root my NT. I got it just before Christmas and have been fairly happy with they way it runs stock.
Something that runs a better browser would be my biggest issue at this point in time, but other than that...
I suppose it just depends on how you use it.
I have the 16gb version, but I had to install it internally also. Here's what i did: got root on stock, did a nandroid backup to my SD card, then installed cmw9 internally. I figured since I have the back up I would be able to restore back to my rooted stock.
But, like you say, it may be diff for the 8gb model.
As far as video is concerned, yes cm9 may be an issue for you. Video acceleration is a problem. In YouTube, you need to turn off HQ to be able to watch the videos. I don't watch any movies on it, but i would think it would be an issue. I'm pretty sure this is something they are working on for the next version. But cm7 plays videos fine, i believe.

The SD CM7 plays HD YouTube flawlessly. But you don't have equivalent quality for Netflix or Hulu Plus (which requires a sideloaded apk) compared to stock.
Since getting a Galaxy Nexus I've actually had less need for CM7 myself, particularly since some key apps like Dolphin, Twitter and Flipboard are on the Nook App Market. But it depends on your own usage.

Check out @succulent's thread in the Development sub forum about dual booting SD cards. I believe there are even step by step instructions on his blog, which is linked in that thread.
Let me preface this with the following (usually stated by the biggest idiot in the room) I am not a total noob when it comes to computer related stuff. I have been building and maintaining networks for better than a decade. Android is a bit new to me but I can follow directions and get things working without fail... usually. Also, Please let me state this is in no way shape or form a bash against the devs. This is an honest to god post looking for others feedback to make sure I am not missing something.
I guess this is a question for others that have run both CM 9 and CM 10. Has anyone noticed a degradation of performance when running CM 10 vs CM 9 from SD on a 16gb NT?
I have tried several versions of CM 10 and all have the same issues. SOD, games don't work, frequent power downs... the usual complaints. I originally skipped CM 9 because hey I wanted the latest and greatest but decided after reading some other threads about stability to give CM 9 0.5.3 a try. Wow what a night and day difference. Everything that didn't work in 10 works perfectly in 9(using the same card and partition layout).
On my CM10 installs I tried reformatting the SD card numerous times (Transcend 8GB/CL4). I tried the last 3 updated versions posted by chrmhoffman(SP?) I've wiped and re-wiped dalvik and cache, though to be honest from the SD version I am not sure if it does anything. I have tried re-downloading the files in the event they were corrupted. I've verified that I properly placed updater-script for the SD install. I have spent hours verifying and re-verifying I didn't miss something. Other than the B&N repartition I have nothing special done to my nook. I haven't even installed a recovery or rooted the stock OS.
So perhaps I'm doing it wrong? Will an internal install make a difference?
I have read many a thread and haven't found anything comparing the 2. If they exist and this has been mentioned please direct me to the appropriate reading material.

Take a look at the CM9, CM10 and the kernel 3.0 threads in the developer section. There are two flavors of CM9 out there, one compiled with the GB kernel and one compiled with the ICS kernel (sorry, but I can't recall at which point chrmhoffman moved his CM10 build to the newer kernel). All of the problems you mentioned are well know bugs in the 3.0.x kernel at this time, and the devs are working feverishly to resolve them. In the meantime, running CM9 with the GB kernel (2.65.x) will give you a more stable platform, but no access to the advanced features in the newer kernel -- hardware video acceleration being the most obvious of the new features.
With all of that being said, I've been switching between chrmhoffman's latest CM10 build and demetris' latest CM10/cherry pick build for the last couple of days, and they are both tremendously improved over their earlier builds in terms of stability. I would confidently use either one as a daily driver at this point.
Ugh, see I'm an idiot. I totally spaced on the fact that it wasn't running 3.x kernel.
OK beyond that I still find CM10 really unusable and I'm not sure how others are getting it to function so well. I've tried the last 3 revisions with the same results on each of them. Could it be a matter of not running it from internal? Has anyone tried the SD version then switched to emmc? If yes what were your results and observations?

I actually find that ROMs run better from my SD card, but that's probably due to my SD card having pretty good speeds. As for the problems that currently exist on the CM10 ROMs, there isn't going to be much difference in BSODs and random reboots between running from internal and SD.

Yep, the biggest improvements I've seen is from turning on "Don't Keep Activities" in the Developer Options and setting the CPU Governor to HOTPLUG in the Performance Options. With these set, I'm actually able to run for days at a time without getting an SOD failure.

Are you ****ting me? Days? With those settings I am lucky to get mins! Seriously the reason for the post was that I get 20 mins tops before I have to reboot it. Then it takes forever to reboot stating it is optimizing applications.
I did a clean install of 04/10 the day it came out and I haven't had a single reboot or SOD. I do have some minor issues with video playback but YouTube works as does MX Player (with software decoder). Battery life has been great too with about 2 1/2-3 days on a charge.
This is with the ROM Installed to internal emmc.

No ***ting at all. I let my son run my NT until the battery died yesterday. I plugged it in for a few hours (probably more like 6 or 7 hours, to be honest). Powered it up 12 hours ago and unplugged it to check on battery performance. Now it's been running for 12+ hours without an SOD, and is at 85% battery...
I hate you! hahaha Just kidding. I think I hate my nook right now though.
Hey guys, all well and good but I would recommend you due to serial number implemented now be careful when you show it on public forums. Maybe b&n is watching you :banghead:

Some of you are really making me feel like this! haha It seems that all of you running solid appear to be running it internally. I'm starting to get the funny feeling that the SD modified version may be the problem.

Hey guys, all well and good but I would recommend you due to serial number implemented now be careful when you show it on public forums. Maybe b&n is watching you :banghead:

Thanks for the warning/reminder... I hadn't even thought about that...
I have a Nook Tablet 8GB and as soon as got it I rooted and put CM7 on it. I wasn't too fond of gingerbread so I went ahead and put CM10.2. I found it very laggy and allot of fc's.I'm now back on CM7 and I still don't feel it runs very smooth and some bugs that really annoy me at times. The 3 center icons where I access my app drawer disappears at times, sometimes freezes when browsing the net or when my son is playing his games and a few other things I can't think of off the top of my head. So I've been looking here on xda at other possibilities. I am looking at liquid smooth or giving CM10.1.2 stable a try but trying a different kernel thinking that may be the cause of the majority of my issues.here are the few questions I have.
1. Which Roms are supported by the 8gb and a recommendation on which would be best all around?
2. Is nook on fire kernel supported by the 8gb and if so which version should I go for?
3. I remember when I went from CM7 to CM10.2 I had some issues with CWM. I believe I had to flash a newer version to install CM10.2 then had to downgrade in order to put CM7 back on. I can't remember or find where I found this solution. If someone could shed some light on this that'd be great .
Right now I am running kernel 2.6.35.7-team-b+
CM7-201220703-team-b-acclaim.
Thanks in advanced.
I have an NT 8GB running very smooth wth Succulent's CM10 dated 31 Dec 2012. I experiment with other ROMS on various devices, but this is my "always go back to" ROM after I've finsihed playing and see that the other, newer ROMs doesn't add aything to it. My opinion only, of course. http://iamafanof.wordpress.com/2012/11/03/cm10-0-jelly-bean-for-nook-tablet-uploading/

Thanks. I was actually looking around last night on the forum and came across another thread where you recommended that Rom. i downloaded it just haven't flashed it yet. Hoping for a beter result in this one.
Edit: running cm10 that you recommended, already much smoother than the others. I get clock has stopped msg on boot and the clock widget closes but that's no biggie. Thanks again
