[Q] Nook tablet running nook hd style rom? - Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet

hey everyone,
So i got a nexus 10 for Christmas and decided to use my nook as an ereader again... So i was wondering if anyone had given any thought to back porting the nook hd rom to the nook tablet.
With all the advancements with jellybean on this device, i was thinking it should be possible, though probably not all that easy.
Any thoughts? Would anyone be interested in this besides me?

I think that is a whole 'nother animal intirely.
However if it can be done, I for one would be interested in trying it myself.:good:

With CM 10.1 and several other roms working towards stable JB 4.2.x builds I don't see the interest being there for a stock restricted as hell ROM being ported.

MIUI on prime?

This may be a dumb question but has anyone ever seen a tablet run miui?
Is it possible once the boot loader is unlocked?

MIUI = IOS with a clock widget......
Ive had the a500 and the G tablet and neither had it. Maybe you can ask one of the phone dev s. I'm sure it's possible.
MIUI is far from iOS, it has some really nice features. I probably wouldn't use it but it would be great to see on the Prime.
Some tablets have had MIUI ROMs hacked onto them, like the Nook Color and Kindle Fire, but they were gingerbread versions. I don't think a properly tablet optimized version of MIUI exists.
MIUI V4 is the ICS version of MIUI, and therefore optimized for tablets. There are pictures of the Kindle Fire running it, just google image kindle fire miui v4.
Nook color also has it.

hp touchpad and galaxy tab 7" gsm both have it too. answer? totally possible. likelihood? im not sure... aosp is always a bit tougher to get everything to work on devices that arent aosp stock. example, my epic 4g touch STILL doesnt have an official version from miui, and the port on that forum, while awesome, is still missing hotspot and video camera only works on lowest settings.
however, MIUI open sourced their code recently, so porting, or building miui based roms should be easier than ever. i REALLY would like MIUI V4 on my prime... been a huge fan since OE Evo launch
kinda bumping my own thread hehe...pathetic but now that the bootloader is unlocked is any dev looking to get miui on the prime?

Well when CM9 comes out it will make it easy for MIUI to be ported. MIUI is based from CM work.

there are 3 developers from Miui.us working on it, Project_Fien_X, leeech and wizard0f0s. That's their twitter names. They keep telling me it's coming, but thats about it lol. I have been following this for a couple of months now and I keep asking the developers questions.
Thanks for the heads up! I'll make sure to follow the progress.

Looking for helpers for ics :)

Haven't been reading the forums lately, so I don't know if somebody's already working on this, but I want to port over ics android 4.0 to the nook tablet. I need one tester, but not for a little while, mainly because I don't even own the tablet.
The tester is going to have to be there when I need him and be able to report bugs, logcat, etc.
This is my first attempt at developing, so expect things to be slow
Also, if some of the devs are willing to help when I need it, that would be amazing
This is not a guarantee that you will get ics. But its a hope
I would love to be your tester, and yes some guys are already working on CM 9. They even wanna get the 3.2 kernel working...

http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1440438 has the latest progress from ics porting (plus the 3.x kernel thread you posted).
Yeah, both the CM7 and CM9 development here are pretty closed...CM7 insists they want a polished product before release and CM9 is going above and beyond with their kernel work, but I know for a fact that they had it 90% a few weeks ago, so I don't know why the news is slow in coming.
I'd gladly help you if you need some work, I not only have a NT but I have an 8-core machine for compiling, I'd be more than happy to build from your github as well.
Hmm... Well if they're that close to being done.. :/
But, the only thing stopping me is having the proprietary libs, which I can't get without the NT.

I can't help you now, but here is some tips.
Use Clockwork Recovery, you can restore and backup and install
Use some drivers from Kindle Fire Android 4.0 Firmware, not too many though.
Rest of the options should be Nook Tablet-based. You might be able to use some Nook Color drivers, but I highly doubt it.

New Nook Tablet Owner

Hello all just got a new nook tablet today after my nook color went dead (rest in peace ) im currently rooting it right now Im glad to now be apart of the action in this part of xda
Welcome to the realm of the Nook Tablets! I am NookTabletsPower, a moderately experienced member. Well, hope you have a good time here!
Thanks I know I will! I'm now experiencing problems rooting my nook dissent want to boot with sd card in it, I found slot of similar posts on that issue but now I'm just trying to fix my problem
Sent from my new LG Optimus Elite
If you aren't attatched to stock at all I'd recommend flashing ROMs to the internal storage as opposed to an external card. The ROMs will run faster and usually they are updated/released for internal sooner. Some people are scared of internal flashing and I dont know why. Ive done only internal flashes and its really nice!

Yes I like internal better, when I had my nook color thats all i ran was internal, sd to me was to much for me IMO

JandyCane Port (proper Google Play Support), Fast, stable (so far) tablet mode

Hello everyone! I was here at work in the nursing home doing absolutely nothing and decided to try and port the Kindle Fire Jandycane JB 4.1 rom over to our tablet. I worked meticulously and was able to get the port to work and it seems rather stable except for our kernel limitations. I do not however get the updater script edited properly so a couple of features specific to the UI on the rom do not function but it is a nice alternative to the CM10 rom and it works fairly well. I especially like the baked in file browser and theme support! If anyone would like to add anything to make this rom better, PM me. We have a great community here and we all cant wait until the CM10 rom is as smooth as butter! I build this rom for fun and unfortunately I cannot provide any support since i dont really know what I am doing This rom is hosted on Mediafire and will only be available for thirty days as of 7/29. If a couple things get fixed such as proper mic support and location services, then maybe someone could host it on Goo-im. Thanks and I hope you like. P.S. Use Jelly Bean gapps and go check out the original authors page at xda developers kindle fire jandycane.
This is the link to the file. http://www.mediafire.com/?a3dzbc21v0tyfcd

Here are some UI pics. The rom is set to tablet mode which is the default with Jandycane. The other pic is of the baked in filebrowser. I believe this rom also has root access yea!

Everything seemed to work fine. Liked the home screen layout. Switched back to miui. Still had random reboot and blank screen issue. I know this is because of the kernel. When thoes issues get fixed this will definitely be the rom I would go to. Thanks!

looking good
Well, i have just installed this, and it seems to be as good, if not slightly quicker, than the other JB rom on the site. to be honest, its just niced to actually see a new rom pop up. im not dissing anyone obviously, but, i (still) have a htc desire, and the rom choice on xda is staggering, so, ive been hoping a few more devs/roms will start appearing!
good work so far, not had one prob with it so far an hour in
About to try it out. If its as good as it looks I'll see if I can work on it a bit, and I can host it on my goo.im account.

Will be giving this a run over the weekend, I'll be stuck at work with hopefully not much to do.. I have been looking forward to seeing more devs pick up on the Nook Tab, surprised that the Kindle has so much more following given it doesnt have the SD card expandability of the Nooks
Well, the Kindle Fire has a pretty-much finished kernel, while ours still has it's holes in it. More developers should arrive when problems are fixed.

This port was quick and dirty. I will be more thorough once the 3.0 kernel is fixed. In the meantime i am thinking of porting over another Kindle fire rom based on 2.3. Any suggestions?
Just one tip: Anything you port that's 2.3, use our CM7 as the base.

Isn't this 4.1 based?
Sent via moon rays...
No, I'm talking about his next port. He said it was Android 2.3 based.
Ive been using this for over a day now, only had 2 or 3 reboots, so, love it. Well done again. Both the ics rom and other jb rom reboot too much for me for some reason.
Another problem ive noticed, is that whenever I do a nandroid of anything other than cm7, thwy always either have md5 mismatch, or they just boot loop. This rom did as well, so I'm just sticking with this for the minute!

Project AOSP! Let's do it!

Hi gang.
Here is an idea brewing in my head. I know it will spin your head. I am embarking on a mission to bring AOSP to this forsaken land... Fair warning. As you see, there is no "recognized developer" tag underneath my name and for a good reason, I am not one! An average newb here as far as AOSP deving is concerned. I do know the very basics, I did build a couple AOSP builds for the Dinc2 and Transformer prime, but that was trivial as those devices were already supported. This device is not. So, I'll need to figure out how to first setup the environment for this and then learn to make a kernel from the source HTC has (if they released it that is).
So, anyone here who can point me to the right direction to kick this off!?
This thread is intended to be a platform for all those interested in helping bring AOSP to our device. Any and all helpful suggestions in this regard will be appreciated!
Hell yeah! I'm pretty sure if we all pull together we can get something cooking. I was wondering though obviously we aren't on jelly bean. Would it be easier to build an ics cm9 and then add select features like the lock screen, camera, animations etc?

Dunno. I was actually thinking if it is better to build Jellybean 4.1 rather than the latest and greatest 4.2.1. But if there aren't significant changes, may be we can pull off a 4.2 build. I just want to first learn to compile AOSP so that it even boots. I believe I need to mod files to build it for our environment... I wonder where I can learn this stuff..
Nits, Andy, help please!
My new laptop is running Windows 8 and I believe it will be a PITA to get Linux running natively on that due to the UEFI fiasco... I wonder if VM linux will be as fast as native... If not, I'll use my current machine to build and use the new one to due my regular stuff...

My new laptop has just arrived. I wanna ask, will building android be significantly hampered on a virtual machine instead of natively? This new machine comes with windows 8 and potentially will be a pain to load Linux on it. Plus this laptop is meant for someone else and I dont think they will be pleased with Linux on their PC...

OMG! First build in progress. The damn thing is ACTUALLY building, I think! But still, if I were you, I wouldn't hold my breath. 99.9% sure the end result will most likely not boot!
EDIT: Of course, all that I said before is of any value only if this thing finishes compiling without errors. And I already had a few errors (which I was able to fix). God, I hope this thing compiles! :fingers-crossed:
Update: Several compilation errors. Failure guys :/ Will retry tomorrow...
