I flashed a cm 10 nightly a few weeks back, I think it was built around the 12th, and for some reason I have all of a sudden began receiving multiple small texts from people, not to mention random soft boots, and Apollo won't work the first time it is opened but will after it force stops itself and you reopen it. Wondering if anyone else had this problems or could recommend another ROM. I was also wondering how to download video from the internet. On ICS it was touch and hold, now nothing works... Thanks
CM10, is an AOSP source build, and does not contain the touchwiz specific framework you are refering too.
Additionally, CM10 (jelly bean) is not complete, in that the kernel, is a modified ICS kernel. We do not have source code for the note 1.
Random reboots are a known issue with these builds, and will continue until source becomes available.
Many good ICS roms exist for our devices, and will give you the type of stability and features you are looking for.
Look at the "super everything thread" located at the top of the general section. There you will find several great running, and feature rich roms.
Please read, then re-read every OP in the rom thread, as they "all" contain important information on the proper setup for the build.
good luck, and happy flashing....g
Thanks for the info Greg. I knew this would be buggy but I wasn't sure if what I was experiencing was abnormal. I really like the ROM except for those reboots. Can you suggest any ROMs you prefer? I can't seem to find any that seem worth it.

Well ..
It comes down to user preference really...
I have 12 roms on my device in storage, and will restore several depending on my mood.
I actually use more GB than ICS, and do not use JB ...due to bugs and no source.
My top pick would be flappjaxxx ICS build #12....with his 3.0.2 kernel.
It's the touchwiz UCLF6 rom.
Since FJ is no longer here, the roms have been pulled. But they are still being made and supported on his site.
I can't link his site directly, as it violates the rules, but search Google for rootdev.org.
He has an Exceptional rom and is a fine developer......g
to fix the issue with having to force close apollo u need to edit ur build.prop on lines and change from true to false, then correct permissions to rw- r-- r-- then reboot
lpa.decode=true
lpa.use-stagefright=true

I had hear about cyanogenmod earlier and even tried to install it once when I was a rank noob without much luck. In my recent explorations of kernels and cifs I found myself at the cm site. It seemed pretty organized and I thought it might be interesting to have another go at it. I followed the instructions and installed it and it worked flawlessly. I restored my apps from Titanium backup and I'm up and running. I did some research in our forum and that, combined with some of my own observations, makes me wonder about the relationship between CM and some of the other roms like Vegan Ginger (which I really like) I get the impression that some or even all of our roms here are derivatives of CM that have been tweaked further by our devs. Is this correct? What is the difference between Vegan Ginger for example and CM7? I'm really puzzled because the kernels and the basic look and feel seem very similar. Someone even remarked that all of our roms are derivatives of CM. I'd be interested to know some of the background and the pedigrees of the various roms and their relationship with CM.
Cyanogenmod is one of the more known and talented group of Android ROM developers, developing for many devices and being a large team of dedicated coders, artist, etc...
They have taken the stock AOSP code and have modified, enhanced and added features far beyond the stock code. Most ROMs you see that have these additions are because they are forked from Cyanogenmod's github and then edited to look like their own (different graphic images, different text wording, etc..).
CyanogenMod was also one of the only ROM devs that I know of that got a Cease & Desist letter from Google early on and created the separated config of installing the rom.zip and Gapps.zip (Rom image and Google Apps).
As for how Vegan-Ginger relates...
Project Moving to Gingerbread
January 12, 2011 14 Comments
Just a quick update for everyone so you know where we stand at this point. Because of all the issues I have had trying to reverse engineer fixes into VEGAn, we have decided to move away from the actual VEGA system image. We have decided to move the project to a MODIFIED CyanogenMod 7 (aka Gingerbread) ROM with “inspiration from VEGA”. This will allow us to not only fix issues more easily but our work would also directly benefit the CM7 camp as well. This would give also give everyone the choice of a completely stock gingerbread like ROM as well.
THERE IS NO ETA AS OF YET FOR A RELEASE. When there is one…. you all will be the first to know! Exciting Times Ahead.

INTRODUCTION
Now that Fattire has lifted his request that everyone build their own zips, I've decided to make available the nightly builds I've been generating. I've got an OS X system cranking out a new build every night at midnight, so there will always be an up to date zip available!
Credit for this rom goes to Fattire, Dalingrin, keyodi, nemith, arcee and the the other hard working people over in the development thread, as well as the the CyanogenMod developers and anyone who's done work on the Nook Color. I wish I could list everyone by name but there's so many great people who've made contributions I can't even begin to do so. I'm just building zips from the source; we'd be nowhere without the contributions these great developers have made to this community.
As nighty builds, these zips may not always work. I'll try to remove any zip found to be broken, but you know the drill: All files provided here are to be installed at your own risk. I'm making built zips available, but no warranty is expressed or implied by the hosting of said zips. I'll provide what support I'm able to, but that doesn't mean that there aren't potentially unknown bugs. If you have questions, you should check the development thread or try the #NookColor IRC channnel on irc.freenode.net.
As posted by Fattire slightly further down, anyone feeling adventurous should definitely consider building from source rather than downloading the built zips. Here's his two cents:

Want to build ICS from raw source code yourself?
It may be a good learning activity, and will certainly make you more self-sufficient. Hundreds have built ICS for Nookcolor successfully, and understanding the process will make you an Android ninja-- PLUS you can try features and bug fixes as-yet-unaccepted-into-the-mainstream build.

However, if you're not quite sold on setting up a development environment but you still want to try the goodness that is Ice Cream Sandwich, proceeed on down to the...
DOWNLOADS
Without further ado: The Ice Cream Sandwich zips!
Ice Cream Sandwich Nightly Builds.
The rom does not include the google apps, so you can/should flash the lastest version of those, which is available here.
Finally, I've hosted a few flashable zip files to make small tweaks to the rom. These are all located in the misc. folder on my server. Below is an explanation of each zip and its purpose.
MISC FOLDER INFO
If you notice that some apps are missing from the market, this may be due to the fact that these ICS builds for the nook do not include support for apps which request phone permissions. Although this ideally would be fixed by developers not requesting phone permissions for their app unless it absolutely needs to be phone-specific, you can also fix it by flashing the telephony-permissions-fix.zip file located in the misc folder. You will likely want to flash this file immediately after flashing your rom.
Secondly, if you prefer the old bootanimation from the galaxy nexus, you can also flash the fix-bootanimation.zip located in the Misc. folder, which replace the new CM9 animation it with Homer_S_xda's fixed version. Thanks to Homer for the fix!
NOTES ON INSTALLING TO SD
I've fixed Verygreen's sd installer image to work with ICS -- you should no longer have to flash SP1 first, or rename the gapps to gapps-gb. If you test out this image, please let me know how it works for you! More recently, Leapinlar has stepped up in helping to fix the image further, increasing its size to allow for the larger size of the new nightlies. Thanks to him for his help -- It's available for download here. Huge thanks to Verygreen for helping me to figure out what needed to be fixed -- in the words of HacDan, "He's not just super helpful, he's a genius". Once you've got the new image, you can use Verygreen's original instructions from his thread on SD Installs, replacing "cm7" with "cm9" where necessary.
IN CONCLUSION
Please remember to thank the developers working on this project, as they've done seriously awesome things for us in an amazingly short amount of time. If you have questions/comments specifically regarding my zips, please post them here, but if you have more general questions regarding Ice Cream Sandwich on the NC you may want to head on over to the development thread. Finally, if you're really enjoying the rom I'd strongly recommend that you try setting up a build environment and building your own zips -- even though I'm making prebuilt ones available they're no substitute for the experience gained by getting familiar with the build process yourself, and Fattire has done a great job of making it an extremely accessible and rewarding project.
Thank you!!!!
What bugs can we expect as far YouTube, flash player. Boot loop . A breakdown of what to expect and not to expect. I don't expect anything but like to know for flashing
And you can build too!

So awesome!
Youtube missing in latest gapps ?
I installed the latest nightly with the gapps and found youtube app is missing ?
Thanks for sharing! I love nook color devs community! You did an awesome job!
Brilliant work! I upgraded from CM7 and all my existing apps that ive checked worked no problem, it kept all my settings too! Speed-wise I would say its very close to CM7, i use ADW EX in preference to trebuchet, and it just flies!
One thing ive noticed is that NFS shift doesnt behave properly when using the tilt sensor to steer, its axis sensor wants the tablet to be in portrait orientation when the screen is in landscape. Hard to know if its the games fault or the sensor. If thats all there is to complain about this early in the development then the future looks promising

I think you can just get it in the market, I removed it to save space. Let me know if you have a problem downloading it.
Dual boot ?
I currently have a dual boot environment setup so I can boot into stock (primary boot partition is currently CM7). Does anyone know if this still supports that ? Anything specific I'd have to do with the install then ?
TIA
Thanks a bunch for hosting these nightlies.....let the fun begin!
I just want to point out for the sd-card users using verigreens 1.3 boot image to setup cm7 to run off of sd card and retain stock for various reasons.
That process will also work for ICS/cm9. Currently, you need to flash update-cm-9.0-0-encore-emmc-sneakpeek1-fullofbugs.zip first. It's found in the ics/cm9 dev. thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1370873
Then, flash Samiam's nightly builds otherwise you will get stuck in a boot loop right now.
Ok just tested it and it works great.
Youtube works just not HQ, although I have to admit that for non HQ the quality and smoothness is very high.
Flash Player doesn't work but I think that has to do with 3D H/W acceleration.
Maps wifi location doesn't work allthough it did work on the normal version of the gapps so something is amiss there.
And I am also experiancing alot of hyper sensitivity especially when using two finger actions.
Otherwise all is well.
I'm gonna stay on cm7 for a while. But I love the progress were seeing with ics.. thanks guys

What version of the gapps did you have where the wifi location worked? If you link me to that I can see if there's something missing from my gapps zip.
YouTube is incompatible from the market. Actually, it appears any device I have that runs ICS is listed as incompatible.
youtube app missing in gapps

Unfortunately thats not the case when I search market it doesn't list YouTube app and when I

I salute you all dev. gurus.
Hat off and thanks for the ICS
Awesome thanks so much!
Hey,
awesome awesome work, thank you very much!
I have a slight problem with the GApps, though: I came from update-cm-9.0-0-encore-emmc-sneakpeek1-fullofbugs and just updated over that with some ics-apps installed. Unfortunately, I do not remember which ones.
Now after the update all my apps are there, but the home screen wiped (not so bad), but my Google Account vanished and I cannot add a new one. Neither in the Settings, nor by opening GMail, Talk, whatever. These will just crash.
Any suggestions?
Thanks again for all your work and energy, I really appreciate that.
Greetz,

+1 .
This is a call out to all existing and future developers of Xperia MDPI Devices.
For about a month now there is an app called Update Me Smartphone, which basically gives OTA update functionality for our Custom Roms.
From 01/05/2012 the developer of this app has given it a very interesting feature. You can view all Roms compatible with the Update Me Smartphone application. Even though you get a list a bunch of irrelevant devices, I suppose if we all "help" him with our suggestions he can make an application that will be on par with the Rom Manager app for devices that are fully supported by CWM.
To make this as simple as possible....
User "A" wants to download a new Rom for his Xperia MDPI Device. He has already downloaded and flashed a custom kernel (whether this is a Stock Kernel, or a CM kernel), then proceeds to download the app, install it and browse any compatible Rom's with his device... From then on his device will stay updated, through the Update Me application providing OTA updates of the Rom he has installed. If he wished to download another rom (compatible with the kernel he has - there are 3 Different Kernels AFAIK: GB CM, ICS CM, GB-ICS Stock Sony Kernel) he will just proceed to download the latest version of the rom he has selected straight to his device. No need to download to your computer, then connect the device, then copy it, then flash it. If you have the compatible kernel already installed, then its easy as pie.
Please let me know of your thoughts on this...
Edit: Link to the application's thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1590170
Edit 2: Apart from Rom's we can also implement various mods, tweaks, fixes, etc for our devices. Even though that would be extremely hard, due to the fact that all these files need to be stored in a direct download location like Dropbox, its is a viable option.
OMG I love the idea, that would be awesome!!
It's very interesting, thanks a lot for the info I will try it!
Some modification: In GB we have 3 different kernel (Stock Based, CM Based, MIUI Based [not released yet]). In ICS we don't have Stock based to Xperia MDPI, because Sony don't released yet the stock for us. So we have CM9 based, AOSP based (it's work with CM9 ROMs btw), and ported Stock based.
Some another notice: I saw a lot of thread (not only in this forum), but sooo many people trying to make ROMs. It's not a problem, but some guy don't know some full minimum things... So who will help this guys to add this app to their ROMs?
Are you using a different Kernel for the Sony ICS rom port? I mean the Ramdisk is the same size and you're using the same zImage from a stock GB rom correct?
Well nobody is forced to do this. All we have to do is provide the app developer a link with the update_me_check.xml so that he will sort of add a link for that in the application.
By the way, i now got my goo.im account, and this have own OTA app. I will try it, and I will report.
But I know, this is not only OTA app... Hmm... I need to think in it
So the only developer checking the thread is Expeacer?
Ok...

I also read quite a lot of topics, but I don't respond in every topic.
Out of curiosity i have been compiling CM10.2 for the last 2 days, and it now compiles successfully 100% (after many repo sync), but the thing is, when it's installed it doesn't even go past the S4 Bootlogo.. that's just sad, it's like the init file (ramdisk) is wrong so I tried the one from the aosp 4.3 ge builds, but that also didn't work, but it's probably not that. I don't know what it is, but of course without any logcat it's hard to find.
even my AOSP 4.3 compiled build went further than that.. it just showed me a black screen cause of the wrong egl libs but it showed a logcat at least. with the major errors of libc being faulty etc. (but it went further than CM.. in the early stage when there were almost no cm patches for cm10.2 yet)
Oh and yes I did include the proprietary files, and found that some of them don't even exist on the original 4.3 rom, so that's kinda lame..
here are the missing ones:
lib/libqmi.so
lib/libqmiservices.so
lib/libqmi_cci.so
lib/libqmi_common_so.so
lib/libqmi_csi.so
lib/libqmi_encdec.so
lib/libqcci_legacy.so
lib/libqmi_client_qmux.so
lib/libreference-ril.so
lib/libril-qcril-hook-oem.so
lib/libsecril-client.so
lib/libtime_genoff.so
lib/libWVStreamControlAPI_L1.so
lib/libidl.so
lib/libivxdrm.so (was spelled wrong by cm, it includes capitals)
that's a lot of libs, does someone know if one of them could be responsible for not going past the boot logo?
I can upload my build if anyone wants it but it does nothing so it's kinda useless
Any useful is appreciated very much! :silly:
just wait awhile..

Most of the low end devices have got 4.3 booting like HTC Pico and Optimus L5 etc.
PS: In HTC Pico CM10.2 Rom only BT and Camera is broken so I am sure we can get a fully stable one in a few tries. Obviously, we have to fix bugs

got it working
So it has been a long time in the works and feels like have been working on this forever. First it was an AOSP Rom, then Caf and at some point both. For now the Rom is AOSP 5.1.1 based.
Is still not 100% but have decided to just go ahead and post the Rom and improve and update.
If you have seen the Test Flight CM based version that had been posted with the Starship Kernel the overall theme is pretty much the same.
The mission now is to first go over a few parts of the theme that bug me or did not translate well in the CM to AOSP Transition such as lightening up some text so is easier to read with darker backgrounds. Second mission is go over every APK one by one and fine tune the theme and add in any extra features. Will post an update as each APK has been completed. Most of the work is done in some form or another but have spent ages nitpicking everything to death and have an external drive filled with already completed images, Colour XML's and lots of uncommitted features so updates will come rather quickly. Honestly at this point am just going to start with the APK's in Alphabetical order so if you like the Rom and theme but a few particular things bug you just let me know and I will not mind jumping ahead. Also with each Rom update not only expect app and theme improvements but kernel and other system enhancements as most are already lined up and just need to be tested in the Rom's new incarnation. It has probably seen some better days but with my constant picking and changing have gone back and forth with so many things I think its best to just post so Starship is out there and now start finalizing. What is currently posted is bare bones themed and featuring a Kernel I have also spent almost a year working on. If you had used the Kit-Kat version of Starship then already know how fast the Rom will be improved and updated based on legitimate feedback. I know I am making things out like this is an incomplete Rom but have been using and been very happy with what is posted as my daily. Yes still need to improve a few things but the truth is I am never happy with anything I do and would have kept changing direction until Android N.
Until next time keep looking up!!
Installing
This version was not compiled using the new block based zip format so will take a bit longer when flashing the Rom. Just a warning for anyone who may think something is wrong. It Just takes a minute longer to flash.
Otherwise besides first performing the usual Wipe of Caches, System and Data also recommend flashing the Rom first, Gapps second and SuperSU last.

I recommend using the Banks 5.21.15 version of Gapps and have posted a link below. I don’t like reposting someone else’s work but just now discovered the 6.17.15 version seems glichy during the set-up wizard sometimes needing to be in landscape mode when making a selection so have reposted the version used during testing. Have also posted a link to the 6.17.15 version but found for example during the restore option selecting done will only register the selection in landscape mode.
