I tried to get my new updatefw.sh (not the one in previous post) script to work on the new kernel to update the touchscreen firmware but it’s just not possible right now, so there is no auto-update to new 5-touch firmware. You need to use an older kernel CM9 that support firmware updating. You can read more on XDA. I have another idea of doing it without typing command, but I have not test it yet.
*UPDATE: I have finalized two CM9 builds with auto firmware update/restore. All you have to do is flash the rom and run it once. The firmware will update/restore by itself. You will know if the firmware is updated when android load to the home screen and the touchscreen isn’t working. At that point you have to hold the power button until the device power off. Then you can flash a 5-touchs firmware rom. Conversely, you will know the firmware have restored when the touchscreen is mirrored.
*UPDATE 2: As of 11/14 ROM, the kernel support multi-touch up to 10 points. The kernel also allows firmware updating. The downside is that when you update the firmware, the touchscreen stop working, so you have to hold the power button until the device power off and turn it back on. I had to disable the auto-update on boot. Updating to the new firmware isn’t hard.
Open the terminal app.
Type,
: su
: sh /system/bin/updatefw.sh
Power device off and back on.
I’ve included both updatefw.sh and restorefw.sh script in the rom. You can run the script from either rom. Scripts are located in /system/bin/updatefw.sh and /system/bin/restorefw.sh.

Is Deep Sleep working? On other ROM, I got SD card autounmount, I’m crazing with this because must reboot NT again and again until SD Card mounted.
http://oi50.tinypic.com/2b7jfq.jpg
Deep sleep looks like it’s working.
Build 11/04, I got sdcard auto unmount after deep sleep but it auto remount sdcard afterward, but I haven’t seen it in 11/07. Waking from deep sleep with power button sometime there is a lag or you need to press volume key.
How many time takes the FW Update with in the cm9 rom way? I´m updating with this method and the ROM is in the cyanogenmod9 screen. I´m in this screen for more than 10 minutes and home screen doesn´t appear.
Thans in advance.
Finally I can update the firmware, but home screen of CM9 doesn´t appear. I shut down the device and the Touch Recovery didn´t work (that the reason I know the firmware update works). I flash with fastboot a compatible CWM recovery and later I flashed a compatible ROM. The new fw works superb. Thanks for your work.
Only one think more. I think you can advice other users about having a compatible recovery (CWM) before install the ROM. Is only a suggestion.
Thanks again for your great work.
Regards,
Diego.
Hi,
I successfully created a SD card version of cm-10-20121108-UNOFFICIAL-acclaim.zip. However, when I now want to run BN stock ROM the touchscreen no longer responses to touch. Is this because the touchscreen FW has been updated (even though the CM10 is on SD)? If so, how do I restore the touchscreen FW — by creating and running the SD version of cm-9-20120815-acclaim-restorefw?
Thx.
Yes.
I made the ROM auto-update the touchscreen firmware to 5-touches in the new build. I figure if people run cm10 on internal, they might as well have the new multitouch firmware. I thought the new kernel couldn’t update the firmware. Maybe the devs fixed it, IDK. I can put up a different boot.IMG tomorrow without auto-update firmware for 11/8.
While waiting for your reply, I went ahead with creating and running the SD version of cm-9-20120815-acclaim-restorefw, and subsequently the touchscreen for stock ROM (and older Chris Hoffman CM9′s) work again. I then popped out the CM-9 SD and put back the CM-10-121107 SD and booted up: the CM-10 touchscreen still works — I am happy my dual-boot setup is back!!!
I had inferred from this that the touchscreen FW gets installed as part of the process of ROM installation (on the SD), but from your preceding reply it sounds like it’s part of the boot?
I am trying to restore my touchpanel firmware so I can run stock FW. I downloaded the cm-9-20120815-acclaim-restorefw_sd_hd.zip and copied the files onto an sd card, but dont understand the part of the instructions about opening the rom file in winzip? What rom file am i supposed to use? The only things on my sd card are
boot
flashing_boot
MLO
recovery
u-boot.bin

Am I correct in assuming that this is an easier way of doing this upgrade: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1966894 ?
It’s auto-update.
I take it that’s a yes?
I noticed that in 11/14 vold.fstab has an entry for usbdisk, is this meant for OTG USB?
I tried to attach a USB Flash but Stickmount does appear to detect it.
I meant to say “… Stickmount does NOT appear to detect it”.
I think you need a y-cable and otg cable to provide power to USB device.
I tried connecting the NT OTG powered Hub Flash drive: no-go so far.
The great news though is no SoD after ~20 hours up time (compared to once every 5-10 minutes with 20121108, and couple of times a day with 20121107).
Thanks.
Thank you so much!
Where is the best place to post bug reports and experience with this build? I don’t see a thread on XDA-Developer.
On this blog. I am considered a kanger and we don’t post kang release on XDA. Chris already posted CM10 on XDA.
thx u gan….
Great work, thanks. I’m running succulent’s cm-10 11/8 from an sdcard. How do I update to the 11/14 or newer version? Do I just copy cm-10-20121117-UNOFFICIAL-acclaim_sd_hd.zip to the boot partition and it will auto update? if not where can I find the process?
I tried using the sdcard instructions posted recently, and flashed this rom (11/18). However, wifi doesn’t work, even though the wl1271-nvs.bin file was already correct. In addition, I am not able to flash the firmware using the terminal commands (update failed) nor does the firmware flasher app change it to 5/10 point multitouch.
clear cache/data. Post logcat with su.
Can I clear data/cache in recovery, even though this is sdcard based rom?
Wow, ok, so. The last build I had on my Nook was 11/17 and it was likely split, no sd or WIFI problem, until it woke from sleep. Then it took about a minute or two of lag and in responsiveness before it was usable. Was about to post here about it, then noticed the 11/18build and installed that instead. Played, with it, tested the Tablet UI, 10 touch, a game (Bards Tale) and Storage Settings, and it was quick as ever. Then I called it a night, hit the power to lock and kill the screen. Now it’s the next day, WIFI picked up quickly, and the SD card is there just fine. No wakeup lag, no problems whatsoever!
This is the most solid build of CM10 yet, and I’ve been playing with CM10 as my daily driver since October.
Thank you so much!
i try to upgrade (dirty flash) from cm-10-20121117-UNOFFICIAL-acclaim.zip to cm-10-20121120-UNOFFICIAL-acclaim.zip, crashed after logo cyanogenmod, try clean flash crashed too…
back to cm-10-20121117, kernel 1200MHz couse it crashed?
I am running cm-10-20121120-UNOFFICIAL-acclaim.zip right now. No crashes. Check the checksum and re-flash. Clear cache.
checksum same (a2375b94246ede64c289933c7f15ce46)… maybe i pass this update & wait for next update, btw your update include this?

thx u for your great work
It’s for cache ahead read. I’ve had it for several updates. It’s good for bootable ROM on sdcard.
With 1200MHz, 6500 on Antutu, with 1008MHz 5700. I don’t recommend 1200MHz and I might remove it since it’s a battery hog and heat up your NT.
cm-10-20121120 my tablet does not goes into deep sleep, SD card version, clean install, clear data
cm-10-20121118 deep sleep works fine
Good to know. You don’t always have to install the latest release. Stick to the one you like since I upload all my compiled builds. Certain test changes might cause problems.
Testing 11/20, dirty update from 11/18. Only issue I notice so far is that it seems to be frozen at 1200mhz, and drains the battery like a mofo. Flashed it this morning, and battery dropped to 40% from 90+% in about 10 minutes. Would a clean install fix something like that? Or a re-calibration of the battery?
Set the CPU to Conservative, seems a little better. Set to Powersave, seems really laggy and appears to be stuck at 300mhz.
Links for 11-21 rom?
I tried out 11/21 (on SD, fresh-install), the battery drains quite fast (it also appears to take longer to charge, which I assume is just another manifestation of the same faster-drain problem).
I am working on it. Testing take time. It take an hour to compile and not counting time for testing and uploading.
In the meantime I have your ParanoidAndroid 2.+JB to tie me over
There seems to be similar reports of battery-drain problem with others’ CM10 that were released in last couple of days.
Mik9 and I have reported to Kuzma30 and he reverted the change that causes this battery drain and it’s fixed. I hope.
I am tried out 11/23 (on SD & fresh install), battery consumption seems to be back where it was with earlier 11/xx builds.
One thing I noticed is that the NT when asleep does not seem to detect insertion of the USB cable (e.g., to charge the tablet) and go into charging mode, until one manually wakes it up. This is in contrast with the behavior I seem to recall in earlier builds in which the NT would automatically wake up upon the cable insertion and display “charging xx%” on the lock screen.
2nd this non charging phenomena if plugged in after sleep.
I can revert this.
Default -> Plugged in, screen turn on and charge. Device get hot while overcharged. Pulled plug, screen turn on.
Now -> Plugged in, screen is still off and no charge. Pulled plug, screen is still off. You want to charge, turn on and plugged in and turn off screen.
My experience with CM7 has been the default except I have never experienced any overheat issue when plugged in all night to charge. Is this overheat issue a CM10 issue?
11/23 works well in my 16GB NT with 1Gb Ram, It sleeps normally now. I have been using CM7 before this and I notice it is snappier in general with CM7 than CM10. Is that normal for NT? For example, PULSE and Dolphin Browser load quite a bit slower in my opinion. Is it normal that most of the time it is running at 300Mhz when using Pulse and Dolphin? (Reading, not playing video).
I can confirm that the sluggish performance of PULSE and Dolphin was contrbuted by the Microcenter Class 4 card that I was using. I reimaged it to a SanDisk Class 4 card and the sluggishness went away. Just want to share this with others.
my last update is cm-10-20121121-UNOFFICIAL-acclaim.zip, i don’t have lucky with all 1200Mhz build: always crash on logo cyanogenmod, maybe i missing something… or there are some procedure that i have to do ( i try update TWRP with 2.3.2.3 does not success either)
thx u
I’m using the 11/18. Everything seems pretty snappy except for my Olive Tree Bible program. The page scrolls so slow it’s unusable. None of my other apps do this.
Witch google apps its best used for this rom?
11/23 has been the best so far since the power problems started popping up, but it’s still really power hungry. A screen cap of my power profile can be found here:
https://picasaweb.google.com/lh/photo/VabbzZkcEMMyu6WDFu0AT3juIz9fv3nH8clhjmww_3U?feat=directlink
This is 24 hours (or so) on battery. About 4 hours of actually use that you can clearly see. But you can also see it has a hard time deep sleeping (it does so occasionally, but not consistently.) Wifi never sleeps. No previous problems, for sure, such as SDcard drops. But Wifi does drop, but a quick on-off toggle will bring it back (unlike before) but this could easily by my network (which has known problems.) Still power usage is much higher than stock, but better than the previous builds since about 11/18. With about typical use of 2 or 3 hours a day, I should get significantly more standby time.
Have you tried turning wifi off when not accessing the Internet (or your home/office LAN)?
I could, but I shouldn’t have to. Plus most of my reading is online, like Reader, GMail and G+, so that won’t help. It doesn’t look like the WiFi is the problem. Well, according to the Battery stats, the Wifi accounts for only 11% of the battery drain, while the screen is 50%. Is it possible the screen is active, though it doesn’t appear to be “on”. The steep drops are obviously when I’m using the device, but that second drop, seems too steep for when it’s in Sleep. That was the time I was asleep myself. It’s looks OK the first time it when to sleep, which was when I was away for the afternoon and evening.
Others suggested using Automateit from Google Store. Set a rule to turn PFF WiFi when screen is off and vice versa. I just installed it and it looks promising.
Bug report:
Lock screen delay (after sleep) isn’t working. Automatically lock only works under “immediate after sleep.”. Other settings such as 5s doesn’t trigger the screen lock. This lock delay is extremely useful if you read a lot and sometimes it takes a little longer on one screen and you didn’t move or touch anything and it goes to sleep due to inactivity. The delay setting allows screen to not be locked immediately so you have a grace period to hit the home or power button to turn the screen back on without having to enter password.
I’m on cm10 23/11 SD version, clean install.
Device show up serial in about tablet menu.
But I have a trouble in using skyscape app, install everything very well but I can not log in to my account.
I have heard that skyscape use imei to manage account
but our tablets don’t have a “real” imei number
I searched the internet for many days and I found that nook color have a way to add imei to device, but that program does not include our tablets
Do we have a way to control this problem?
Thank you a lot
Have not try it, http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1436486.
Sorry for asking you a problem that does not belong to the issue of the built. But by my knowledge I can not figure out this problem.
I was able to upgrade to v21. However I haven’t been able to go to 23 or 26. Both boot to a black screen after the initial boot screen. Any suggestions??? Please help!
Wait a bit and try to re bot I had luck on my 2nd try
There are no init logo in ice cream or jellybean, so you see a black screen in between cyanoboot and the boot animation.
Right, However I’m not getting anything once i get to the black screen. No boot animation ever comes.
I was finally able top upgrade from 21 to 28. I have noticed one thing. It’s not seeing of the sdcard partition. It see the first five hundred megs. So I’m not getting apps installed on sdcard. Any suggestions?
You need to edit the /system/etc/vold.fstab file in the ROM zip archive and change “auto’ to “4″ on the second dev_mount command, or simply just replace the file with the version in SD_Boot.zip posted on the companion blogpost http://iamafanof.wordpress.com/2012/11/11/how-to-guide-bootable-cm7cm9cm10-sdcard-for-nook-tablet/
Thanks! That seem to correct it. Does that cause the storage option in the setting to stop working?
The Storage page in my Settings shows space consumption for the “data” and “sdcard” (3rd and 4th) partitions of the SDcard, as well as the Nook’s partition allocated to user’s media.
can anyone confirm that this ROM works on a NOOK tablet 8GB whether it’s via a SD card or internal install? I’ve read most of the NOOK CM10 ROMs are based on the 16GB tablet. However, I only have the 8GB Tablet. any help will be greatly appreciated. thanks.

hi, can anyone confirm that this ROM works on a NOOK tablet 8GB (BNTV250A), whether via the SD or internal/local install methods? I’ve read that most of the CM10 ROMs are base on the NOOK tablet 16GB. Any help will be greatly appreciated. thanks.
I’ve been running 11/26 and battery consumption when idle is the best of all recent CM10 builds (including the other CM10 varieties on XDA): ~ 1-2% a day, pretty much on par with stock ROM and older CMx ROMs.
have you thought to upload to goo.im? Is your TabletUI switchable?
Does this ROM come with app to burn 5/10 touch fw and back?
I’m not complaining, just wondering. Why would you coupled ROM and recovery in one zip. I’m also wondering if you a place to report bugs. One for example, in TWRP it is really hard to type name of the backup. I’m on 2touch fw
TWRP is not working for me so I still use CW to install the new Roms 11/28 is working great for me. The battery life is much better. Thanks for all your hard work. BTW what left to do before it goes stable? Also youtube is working great. I have BMT 16 gig
GG
How were you being able to do that? I installed 11/26 and it did update my CW to TWRP.
I boot from a CW SD card and then install the new Rom saved on another SD card, I like CW better
But CWM doesn’t allow multiple flash zips and storage on emmc.
I like them both.I use TWRP on my xoom and it works great, but not on my NT. I don’t know if it’s because I’m on 2-touch fw or not, so I would like to use CW here. The only thing I would say is that rebooting into recovery from within this ROM with TWRP is working where it does not work with CW. It reboots back into ROM.
What do you mean “storage on emmc”? Let me just make it clear. This ROM is for emmc, right? I’m using cm-10-20121126-UNOFFICIAL-acclaim.zip to flash. I was just hoping it would keep whatever recovery I have and not replace it. Is there a way for me manually remove it before flashing a new version? TWRP is really unresponsive ion my NT. I don’t know if should try to update to 10-touch and see if it would resolve my issues with it. Thanks
Meaning you can store your rom on your emmc (media) partition and flash it from there. If you don’t like twrp, open the rom zip and delete recovery.img.
Am I going to get error, because install script is still trying to execute command? Also a Q. Does cyanoboot is build into recovery? Yours looks different than the one in CW. Is yours the latest?
Can you provide step by step instructions to upgrade a one OS bootable sdcard with working 11/18 img to your newer 11/28 build? Do I just flash the 11/28 zip after going into recovery or are there edits that need to be made to the ROM files?
To update a bootable CM10 SDcard to 11/28:
1) download both cm-10-20121128-UNOFFICIAL-acclaim.zip and cm-10-20121128-UNOFFICIAL-acclaim_sd_hd.zip
2) replace updater-script file in folder META-INF\com\google\android of the cm-10-20121128-UNOFFICIAL-acclaim.zip with the copy in cm-10-20121128-UNOFFICIAL-acclaim_sd_hd.zip
3) if you have a 4th (FAT32) partition (“sdcard”) on your SDcard, edit the vold.fstab file in folder /system/etc of cm-10-20121128-UNOFFICIAL-acclaim.zip and change the keyword “auto” to “4″ in the second dev_mount command (or just replace vold.fstab file with the copy inside SD_Boot.zip from http://iamafanof.wordpress.com/2012/11/11/how-to-guide-bootable-cm7cm9cm10-sdcard-for-nook-tablet/)
4) copy the modified cm-10-20121128-UNOFFICIAL-acclaim.zip to the boot partion of the SDcard
5) copy boot.img from cm-10-20121128-UNOFFICIAL-acclaim_sd_hd.zip to to the boot partion of the SDcard
6) boot into SDC recovery and flash both the modified cm-10-20121128-UNOFFICIAL-acclaim.zip and the gapps.zip
Digixmax,
Thanks for the detailed response
I assume that all my installed apps and data will remain intact, true?
Yes, the apps you installed and their data should be intact; I think the same holds true for the apps of the re-installed gapps.zip but I am not 100% certain.
@iamafanof The upgrade procedure seems overly complicated, seems like we need a utility like the 5/10 Touch one that will take your updated ROM files and pull what it needs and reboot the NT and flash the proper modified version. Unfortunately I don’t have the skills to do it, but I’m sure one of the talented people on this forum may have.
Hey Succulent can you help me with an NT 16 SD card issue? It can be here or in email if you dont want to spoil the thread with lots of back and forth. I have 2 NT 16gb units. I initially used the CM7 image file to create an SD card on them back when CM7 first came out. Since then I have been following with the various CM10 SD builds on only 1 of the NT’s. I needed to verify stability etc before upgrading the other one that both my wife and daughter use. So after the 1128 update I found it was working to my liking so I decided to upgrade the 2nd NT. No joy no matter what I do no matter what SD card I try to use. Which at this point has been 4 different cards. All of which work in the 1st NT, the one that will run CM10. The only card that still works in the second NT is the imaged burned card.
Either it just ends up shutting itself off, or it hangs at a back-lit screen for ever with nothing happening. I have managed 2 different times to start the CM process after letting the stock OS prepare the SD card with its folder structure. It shows the spinning logo for a few seconds then the spinning stops and the NT shuts off.
On the unit that isn’t working I have tried EVERYTHING. Hell I even tried to update from 1.4.2 to 1.4.3 because for some reason the serial number was showing all 0′s, I have factory reset it. I have tried to clear cache, dalvik cache, reset permissions. Factory reset it again, et al. I have done all of the usual steps to resolve the problems numerous times. I have wiped the SD cards so many times I am sick of looking at MTPW. I have tried different partition sizes. Still no joy. I have even tried taking the freshly created CM 10 sd card running it in the 1st NT and then putting it in the 2nd. Failure.
I don’t think I have missed anything but after being in the IT field long enough I have learned that frustration can lead you to often miss something. And after 10 hours of messing with this crap…. nope not frustrated not in the slightest!
F250 seller at gmail dot com if you want to email me directly and thanks in advance for any help you can shed on the problem.
OK seen as I like to punish myself I tried one last ditch effort before smashing the tablet. I downloaded the image file and created a card that way. It worked. Stupid POS worked. Grrrr. OK cool. So I then wiped the card with mini tool and recreated all the partitions the way I normally would. I downloaded the 1128 files and put those on the card. I then put it in the NT and launched. Success. Not sure why the 1126 files wouldn’t work but something in that revision just wouldnt work.
EDIT to my previous post. I meant the 11-26 file not the 11-28 file.
I notice that there is a new update dated for the 1203 but when you click the link. It gives you the files for 11/23? Is that correct or just linked in correctly?
whoop, corrected.
So, back on 12/1 LeoG asked if the 5/10 Touch drivers were in your 11/28 ROM. Now that your 12/3 ROM has been posted, do we need to install drivers or FW to enable 5/10 Touch or are they baked into your new ROM. If not, I only see a link to a 5 Touch firmware upgrade posted here. Are there different Touch FW updates for NT 8GB vs 16GB?
All the new cm10 rom have a touch panel firmware flashing app. Flashing the touch panel firmware is a one-time thing. You flash the new firmware into the touch panel memory. CM10 rom kernel supports both the new multi-touch firmware and the old 2 touch firmware. 5/10 touch uses the same firmware, it’s just that the driver is updated to support 10 point of touch. Yes it’ll work on 8/16 GB NT.
@George Bertoli: keep in mind though that stock ROM does not work with the 5/10 touchpanel firmware, so you’ll get a non-responsive touchscreen if/when you boot back to stock ROM.
Thanks, I found that out…LOL
I learned. the hard way that’s why there is a way to flash back the 2/touchpanel firmware.
Hello, 12/03 made few reboots in less than 1 hour. I went back to 11/28, which works very good for me.
TWRP 2.3.x.x seems to have serious touch problems. You can hit a button and nothing will happen. Touch anywhere else in the screen and then your first touch will happen. Have to touch twice for anything is pretty broken. I’m running the 10touch firmware.
This is my experience as well. I’m on 2 touch fw. Just FYI
I tried it with both 2 touch and 10 touch firmware… it’s equally broken
broke what?
I installed v12/03 on SD over a day ago. This morning I experienced a crash (and subsequent auto-reboot into stock ROM) while using email;this kind of crashes has not happened in recent builds (unless I counted manual (re)-boot due to Sleep-of-Death problems), so I am going back to using v11/26 for a while.
One odd thing I noticed is the battery % charge reading right after the re-installation of v11/26 went up by ~10% compared to the reading right before the re-installation, all over the course of a few minutes it took to boot into CWM to install the ROM & gapps and then reboot into CM10. Since we all know the NT does not charge anywhere near that fast rate (10% in a couple of minutes!!!), I am inclined to think that one of the two battery % charge readings — before vs. after, is wrong. This might also explain why I had thought that the battery drain rate for v11/26 was a big improvements compared to those in earlier or later builds
I noticed that. The problem is in the kernel, cpuidle44xx.c. 11/28 – 12/03 version uses the omapzoom version which resulted in faster battery drain. I changed it in 12/06. I have no way of testing for random reboot.
Thanks for returning to CWM, I could never get TWRP to work for me, I hope the battery life is better on this one, I keep an eye on it to see if it’s better. I don’t have any test equipment to prove it just my feeling.
Thanks for all your hard work I love what your doing.
GG
I see there is a new 12/06, was about to report about 12/03. Maybe I should, for reference:
SD cards remain solid.
Power drain on idle is better, not great, but definitely better. It can’t “just” be the 1200 OC, since it should spend most of its time at 300 when idle, right?
I still get Wifi drops, a toggle only fixes it for a few seconds. I think WIFI goes to sleep when the screen goes to sleep, but when you give the screen a touch after it does its initial “dim” to warn you it’s about to go to sleep, wifi doesn’t get the message and goes to sleep. And it doesn’t get its “cue” that it’s awake to awake, because it never “went” to sleep (does that makes sense.) This problem goes away after a REBOOT, but it returns after a few hours of Deep Sleep.
Will try 12/06 in a few. Will report after a day or so, after a few hours of deep sleep, some routine usage.
The 12/06 build has some issues. I rebooted into recovery from the power menu, and ended up getting stuck in recovery boot; rebooting to system dumped me back into recovery, presumably because the current method of triggering a reboot to recovery involves setting the bad boot counter to the right value in /bootdata. This wouldn’t be a problem except that CWM, despite the proper variable being set, does not start the adb daemon on the device side! I ended up having to use an SD card to load a version of CWM that did have ADB, and resetting the boot counter that way (since apparently CWM doesn’t set it back when it reboots to system). This should be fixed.
I am stuck in a Recovery loop using Rom 12/06. I end up flashing back to 12/03…probably go back to 12/06 but won’t try the new boot to recovery again…
I am aware, I am uploading 12/07.
You Just have to hold power button until device power off so doesn’t reboot into recovery again.
I tried that, and it didn’t seem to work. :/
I just installed 12/8 and WOW is it running HOT, I runs at 1008 all the time, I think I need to go back to an earlier ROM to cool things off. Any reason for this?
GG
oops it runs at 1008 all the time
post a screenshot of CPU spy.
I did a factory reset and re-installed 12/8 and every things looks OK now. I also I set the CPUgovernor to “Ondemand” and things have settled down quite a bit. Thanks again for all your hard work and for helping a Newbee like myself
Deep Sleep… 2:52 49%
1008… 39:24 11%
800… 8:06 2%
300… 1:39:45 28%
GG
I also just installed 12/08 and, after reading note above, checked CPU spy after initial boot and noticed the same – 1008 was above 65%. But, after almost an hour with the nook mostly asleep, the percentages changed and 1008 was only 5%.
I rebooted and 1008 was 26% immediately afterwards. After 35 minutes of reading with wifi on, 1008 showed 5% and 300 92% so it seems ok to me and all seems to work well.
Also the link for the download of cm-10-20121208-UNOFFICIAL-acclaim_sd_hd.zip again goes to the individual files – I noticed this was something you fixed on an earlier release.
I use google drive now. Any zip/rar file larger than 1xx MB doesn’t get scan, for smaller zip/rar it display all the files in it. You have to click File>Download.
duh – that was dumb of me! I didn’t even notice File. It was easy enough to download the couple of files I needed but it’s nice to have the whole zip – thanks again!
Screen shot, sort of… This is a pic of CPUSpy after a few hours taken with my phone of the NT with 12/8 installed.

I hope this helps others
GG
BTW how do you take a screen shot on the Nook Tablet?
in jellybean power button+vol down or hold power button and select screen shot.
Very strange all I have when I press the buttons is.. “Power off, Reboot, Profile, Airplane mode, Primary, some crazy entry called Pesky Kid, Toggle status bar and Silent mode”. No screen shot…. Hummmmm and I’m running 12/8
GG
Screenshot go to your sdcard/picture
settings>system>power menu>screenshot
Nothing will stick, when I select “screen shot it will not stay on the menu, I’ve tried it several times and nothing works… what an I doing wrong, I have the same problem trying to change the Temp on the lock screen from C to F… settings>system>power menu>screenshot etc.
GG
That’s more of what I am getting. I have a balance of 1Ghz and 300Mhz. Interactive governor speed up to 1Ghz fast but slow to 300Mhz. If you want better battery life, use conservative. It’s the opposite of interactive.
Hi, can I ask you a question, please?
What is the simplest way to convert boot.img from internal flashable zip to boot or alboot(1-3)?
By the way, the link you gave me to add IMEI to my Nook is working, I can using skyscape on my Nook. thanks a lot
I installed 11/28, and ran it for a few days, and I’v had 12/8 installed for a couple days; I just wanted to give you some feedback from someone completely new to flashing ROMS.
First of all, it is awesome that I am comparing an $80 refurbished, black Friday deal Nook Tablet 16 Gb to the $250 Nexus 7, and it’s not doing too bad!
I tried to use the original Nook installation, but it is derived from Gingerbread (I think) and even with it rooted and Google Play installed, there were a lot of apps that were not compatible. It is hopelessly locked into selling B&N media, and not really good for much else.
The Nexus 7 rooted with Jellybean 4.2.1 is great, and I wanted to recreate that experience as much as possible with the Nook; so I’ve tried a few ROMS, and luckily, stumbled on this page.
After installing 11/28 CM10 from this site, I was surprised at how well things work; it’s not bad for an Alpha – Unofficial version. I’m not seeing any appreciable performance or stability differences going from 11/28 to 12/8.
Comparing the Nook with 12/8 CM10 with the Nexus 7, most apps run nearly the same speed, and the only thing you notice is that the screen is not as nice. One great advantage is the SD card slot; I filled a 64 Gb card with movies for the kids, and installed MovieGallery, which works great.
I noticed that MX Player & Mobo Player both lock up using HW decoding; I think because the drivers in CM10 don’t support this yet for the Nook tablet? Anyway if you set these programs to software decoding, they work fine.
Things that work fine: Almost everything. Any text based app works perfectly (Gmail, Amazon Mobile, New Egg, the Nook app (go figure) etc. Netflix & YouTube & Pandora seem to work fine too, though I haven’t spent a lot of time with them yet. Angry Birds & Riptide GP & Temple Run run smoothly, and Google Earth works too.
Things that don’t work: Hulu Plus gets a 142 error, and states that the device is not supported. I also found that a kid’s game called Animal Puzzle for Toddlers also reports that the device is not supported.
Because of device constraints, Bluetooth & compass based apps do not work There is no camera either, so no Skype or scanning/camera app support.
I’ve had a couple of random reboots on both 11/28 & 12/8, but for the most part they are stable on my tablet.
That’s about all I have to report for now, if anyone has anything they want me to try out, let me know.
I have installed 11/28 follow by 12/08 but has experience a shut down to my screen whenever I pluck in my OTG cable for charging purposes.
Please advise what are the measures I can do to prevent this from happening.
I use the cable that came with the Nook to charge it, and it does not shut down or reboot when running CM 10 12/8. The Nook Tablet has a non standard charging port that looks like a normal Micro-USB port, but the it has 12 pins instead of 5. I’ve tried to use my phone’s Micro-USB chargers,and they don’t fit quite right, or charge properly.
Charging from phone chargers will charge the nook but it’s a much slower rate.
12/08 report. Been using it for several hours every day.
Power Usage has been acceptable, not as good as Stock, but way better than it has been.
No SD card problems.
Some Wifi problems, but I believe it’s typical for CM10 or the particular wifi chip. I’m on a Linksys router. Same problem as before. My theory is that after a Deep Sleep, the wifi will work for 1 minute or 2, and then drop, as if it’s going to sleep. Toggle Off & On will bring it back, but it’ll drop again after a minute. A reboot gets rid of the problem, until it goes to Deep Sleep, then it drops consistently.
New Problem: Settings > About Tablet > Status crashes Settings.
Everything else seems great.
Settings -> Storage crashes Settings as well
Settings -> Storage doesn’t crash for me after a wipe. Settings > About Tablet > Status DOES crash though.
Interesting – they both crash fro me but I didn’t do a wipe – just updated.
Same as Mike for me; Settings->Storage works fine; Settings->About Tablet->Status causes this error: “Unfortunately, Settings has stopped.”
From my experience 11/18 build works, it has a wake from sleep issue if you don’t turn off wifi first, but other than that works fine. I have heard from the comments that 11/26 build also works fine (may have wifi too though not reported).
This was super simple. Thanks for developing and putting up this site. After hours trying to use fastboot / emmc, this was a breath of fresh air.
I had an interesting experience/problem in using my CM10 SDcard I’d like to record here, both to solicit an explanation of what transpired from my mistake and its underlying logic, as well as to help others avoid making the same mistake I did.
I was running CM10 off an SDcard, and had wanted to shutdown the NT and remove the SDcard. I made the mistake of removing the card while the shutdown was still in progress; the NT then froze thus forcing me to power it down by holding the power button.
When I powered NT back on (without the SDcard inside) I was surprised to see Cyanoboot (in lieu of stock ROM) coming on, followed by CM boot animation, then the lockscreen with an error message something along the line “apps not found” — apparently some parts of the NT emmc got overwritten and the stock config became “corrupted”!
Fortunately I had recently done a backup of the NT’s stock config (using CWM “backup & restore”) and thus was able to completely restore it.
I am very interested in learning some explanation of how/why Cyanoboot & CM10 boot landed on the NT emmc.
The updater-script tell the rom to install JB onto the system. Unless you forgot to replace the updater-script with the modified one in the rom, JB shouldn’t be install on the system. You have to repeat what you did to see if the problem is duplicable because I haven’t seen that problem.
I had the same experience as digixmax at one point and time. I didn’t replace the updater-script like iamafanof said. You have to replace the updater-script files with each update. Once i redid everything and replace the updater-script. Everything was working again like it was suppose to.
You’re right: I had forgot to replace the updater-script during one of the recent builds, and since I no longer manually reformat the SDcard’s system/data partitions prior to each build, I ended up running a previous ROM build (and thinking is the new one
) and my mistake went unnoticed until by chance I return to stock config yesterday.
Incidentally I have been itching to go native with CM10, and as such have questions related to flashing ROMs:
1) Am i correct to assume that to install the CM10 internally I can just flash from SDcard the ROM and gapps zip files as they are (i.e., without replacing their updater-script and vold.fstab files)?
2) And to go back to the NT stock config, I can just flash from SDcard BN’s nooktablet_1_4_3_update.zip?
3) Does either 1) or 2) above require some particular version(s) of Recovery?
Thanks.
1. The rom is meant for internal so no messing with updater-script. Depending on which partition you want to store your contents on SDCard, you will have to modify vold.fstab. By default its partition 1 of SDCard. Bootable SDCard uses partition 1, 4, 7 or 9 depend on which method.
2. Create a backup of stock OS with CWM. If you want to go back to stock, just restore it with CWM.
3. Restoring CWM backup does need CWM, so it’ll probably won’t work with TWRP.
can you confirm that this ROM can be installed internally on a 8GB NT? Thanks.
What I meant to ask in my question #3 above is whether the same version of CWM on the SDcard (from SD_Boot.zip or one of those cm-10-……-sd_hd.zip) can be used both to flash CM10 as well as to backup/restore stock OS, or do I need two different versions of CWM for these two tasks?
IDK if the backup from cwm 5.x.x.x work with cwm 6.x.x.x. My assumption is no. It’s best to just use the newer cwm. I used 5.x.x.x because it works with CM7, which 6.x.x.x didn’t. I haven’t try flashing cm7 with recent release 6.0.2.2. You can flash cm10 with cwm 5.x.x.x.
Also, can I use the same CWM v.5.0.2.8 to flash CM10 onto emmc, or do I need a later version of CWM 6.0.x.x?
I tried out backup function of CWM 5.0.2.8 and 6.0.1.5 — they provide different coverages and use different approaches: 5.0.2.8 backups (to my surprise) user-media partition (in addition to boot/recovery/system/data partitions) and uses classic tar format, whereas 6.0.1.5 backups only OS partitions and uses BLOb format.
Also I’ve read on XDA some folks had backup problems with 6.0.1.5 and reverted to 6.0.1.2. Do you happen to have compiled and can make available 6.0.1.2?
One more question on recovery: which version of recovery is the one you included in CM10 zip archive?
Thanks.
12/8 have 6.0.1.9. i don’t have 6.0.1.2. i have 6.0.2.3, which is latest.
Well I took the plunge and went native with 12/08. The installation went pretty smoothly. The only thing “unexpected” incident was that right after the completion of auto-restore of my apps from Google backup the tablet rebooted itself and came backup with a different lockscreen/homescreen wallpaper — switching from the default purple+blue wallpaper (2nd screenshot at the top of this blogpost) to one of the CM10 wallpapers I had used. I assume this switch was part of the Google backup auto-restore process, though I kinda wish that didn’t take place as I started to grow fond of that default wallpaper and had planned on keeping it
.
@iamafanof — Thank you for this12/08 ROM (and all your prior releases along the way), its very reliable/stable performance crossed the threshold I was waiting for to make this jump onto the native track. Now I am ready for playing with your 10.1′s on SD as soon as they come out.
Have a restful and great holiday season.
Thanks for all your hard work. I was trying to make a bootable SDCard with your ROM. I wanted to try it out to see how well it would work on my Nook Tablet. I had an unaltered ROM and the one that had to path to install to the SDCard. I placed the wrong ROM on the SDCard then flashed my internal memory on my Nook Tablet. I realized my mistake on rebooting. I did the factory reset on the main memory and flash the ROM and GAPPS. When I rebooted this time something amazing appeared on my screen, a “HOME”, “WINDOWS” and joy of joys a real “BACK” BUTTON!!!! Oh how I have missed these buttons from my rooted Nook Tablet.
The OS is clean and has been running pretty smoothly. I have a number of my apps reloaded and have not had any trouble with it after I got it set up.
Thank you very much.
Can someone comment on the relative speed of running from SanDisk SDHC card vs. internal? I just upgraded to SanDisk and I’m amazed at the speed – but would it get even better?
Generally best SD cards for running ROM are those that are optimized for read/write of random short blocks as opposed to large contiguous blocks, such as SanDisk Class4 cards which as a result are frequently recommended. You can find lots of discussion and info on this topic at http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1005633.
Hi, I have 12/8 installed internally (emmc?), and it was working well (see my previous post) until today. I think this is the first time I let the battery discharge completely since I installed 12/8, and tonight when I try to turn the Nook on, it doesn’t do anything. I tried just holding the power for 60 seconds, then power + the Nook button, and neither method yields any response from the tablet. I plugged in the charger for 30 minutes or so, the “n” light on the charger is yellow, and the tablet continually loops displaying the “n” logo repeatedly, and that is it. I tried this with, and without the SD card installed with the same results.
I’m pretty sure I can format an SD card as bootable, and recover that way, but I’d like to know what the least disruptive solution is so I can boot back into the current installation.
Whew! I have finally recovered the original installation. Not sure why it worked, but after I removed and reinserted the SD card, the boot loop stopped, and the tablet now boots back into CM10 and is charging now. As an additional test, I tried booting again without the SD card, and that works now too.
is there a tutorial link on how to install this (non-SD version) rom?
Is there a tutorial link on how to install to emmc?
Go to recovery, install zip from sdcard, choose this file, then do the same for the gapps.
See http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=35669871&postcount=1.
Thanks!
I ran into a problem with 12/08: when I connect the NT to the PC I do not get the “USB connected” notification with option to “turn on the USB storage”, and thus cannot access neither the emmc media partition nor the sdcard. The problem exists with both CM10 running on emmc and running on sdcard. Furthermore when running on sdcard, hitting “storage” in “settings” results in a force-close of “settings”.
I am curious if anyone else has the same problem, or I am just missing some setup setting somewhere.
I don’t see your problems,

What you have is a residue problem. You need to clear data/cache. On sdcard, just delete data1 partition and recreate it. Google also restore settings, I don’t know what though.
I tried wiping data/cache with same no-go result. I also thought of the possible of Google auto-restore my setting, so I tried skipping over Google account setup and still no avail.
Is it possible the problem is due to the NT not mounting the two user-media and sdcard partitions (or not mounting them properly), and if so which system files can I look for settings that control if/how these partitions get mounted (other than vold.fstab)?
What changes did you do to vold.fstab? Post the file.
I found the answer to my problem: I was used to getting the full-screen alert “USB mass storage” (upon insertion of tethered USB cable), and didn’t notice the tiny alert “USB connected” on the status bar (which when pulled down would in turn launch the “USB mass storage” alert). Sorry for the false “trouble ticket”.
On the other hand, I noticed that whenever I try to access “About this tablet” -> “Status” (which would display IP/MAC addresses, Serial No., etc) , Settings would stop and exit.
I can mount USB just fine on 12/08. Maybe it’s a simpler reason like your USB cable is bad.
New to the nook but not to Android. Just tried this rom and I like it so far.
Two questions:
1) Settings > About tablet > Status crashes. (as others reported.) Anyone find fix or workaround ?
2) Is it expected to lose 20% battery life overnight? Screenshot: https://www.box.com/s/kbu4owi266csbqn4jf25
1. Read the to do list. It’s either status crashes or more battery drain during sleep.
2. Check the kernel date if it’s 12/08 and clear data/factory reset before installing the rom.
@iamafanof,
Thanks, I missed the comment in the to-do list about “Status Crashes”. For others, I can confirm that the following fixes it in the 12/8 rom:
/xbin/mount -o rw,remount /system
cd /system/app
mv Phone.apk.bak Phone.apk
/xbin/mount -o ro,remount /system
then reboot the tablet.
About battery drain, not sure I understand your comment. It looks like battery drain settings are still being tweaked, correct?
Just trying to understand in general from other people if the battery drain I’m seeing is typical/expected.
Many thanks for all your hard work on this rom.
I’ve tried 4 different builds of this ROM and I’m not having the greatest luck. Here’s what I’ve tried so far:
11/08 – Wifi works, sleep of death or reboots frequently, however, if I turn off wifi, it seems to be more stable and will occassionally sleep and resume.
11/18, 12/06, 12/08 – Wifi doesn’t work (won’t even turn on), sleeps ok, but since I have no wifi, I can’t do a whole lot.
I don’t see anyone else complaining about Wifi not working so I’m a bit confused as to why I’m having problems. I saw the note about renaming that file in the firmware folder, but that doesn’t seem to apply after 11/08 since there is no .orig file there. Any help would be appreciated. I’d be happy to provide logs or anything else if needed. Thanks!
a) Wipe data/factory reset – backup your app/data with Titanium Backup
or
b) Check for /system/etc/firmware/ti-connectivity/wl1271-nvs.bin, if it doesn’t exist check for wl1271-nvs_127x.bin or wl1271-nvs.bin.orig, and rename it to wl1271-nvs.bin and reboot.
I forgot to mention I was dual-booting an SD card. Finally I gave up and flashed EMMC instead. Wifi still didn’t work on the first boot. I decided to update the touchscreen firmware, rebooted, and was shocked to see wifi working at that point. But then the touchscreen was acting up. Touches were not accurate at all. I re-flashed stock, rebooted and everything was ok. I gave flashing the touchscreen another try and this time it worked just fine. End result is great, I just had some weird issues along the way. Thanks for maintaining this ROM!
The NEW Rom I see is HD….. Can we Flash our B&N Tablet with it or is it for the new HD Tablet only?
They’re initial so I can identify my ROM from others.
Holy crap I just noticed the HD as well, it booted, I upgraded the 10 finger firmware and NOW the POWER BUTTON on the Nook Tablet 16GB doesn’t turn this thing on…
Is this filed under the WRONG forum?
What should I do
.
Can I get away with just a “wipe dalvik cache” or is a “wipe data/factory reset” and restore data from a full back the preferred method? of installing this ROM and why?
Titanium Backup is great. Use it to do bulk backup or use CWM and make a full backup of your system/data.
If you don’t wipe data/factory reset, you get weird side effects that others complain about. No Wi-Fi, mac address is wrong, lagging, freezes, apps crashes, gapps doesn’t work, blah blah blah, etc. I don’t like responding to user errors.
I can understand that, I thank you for all your hard work . I just updated my NT the correct way and everything looks great. so far no problems it does everything I want it to do.
acclaim_HD works great, but how can i mount the sdcard/eMMc on my computer ??
There should be a portable device on your computer.
no sorry, and when i try see my Storage , crash it! :S
when connect the USB this Message Appears “Unfortunately, the process android.process.media has stopped” ,, what can i do?
I’ve been using the 11/28 build on SD and have only 3 minor issues:
1) Settings -> Storage force closes
2) Nook application screen goes black when zooming a magazine page on landscape (holding it portrait style works fine, as does reading books in either orientation)
3) Chrome crashes too often (switched to Dolphin which is far more stable).
Are any of these issues solved in later builds? I’d rather not update if I don’t need too. Like I said, these issues to me are minor.
setting storage… Fixed
Chrome works fine on my NT
All my e-readers work great
Time to update… it’s painless and very easy, if done right you wont loose anything.
Painless? Well I just over-wrote my stock OS instead of the SDCard! I thought I followed the directions but now my Nook is screwed up. Now I have to do a COMPLETE recovery. And this is why I didn’t want to attempt an update.
Could somebody here point me to the correct update procedure? I used the following:
Open your microSD “BOOT” drive on your computer
Replace boot.img with one inside “cm-10-xxxxxxxx-UNOFFICIAL-acclaim_sd_hd/p2″
Copy “cm10_xxxxxx_acclaim_sd_hd.zip” into microSD “BOOT” drive
Plug microSD into device & boot into Cyanoboot’s Boot Menu
Select “4) SDC Recovery”
In CWM, select “install zip from sdcard”
Install “cm10-xxxxxx_acclaim_sd_hd.zip”
Power off device
Repeat & install “cm10_xxxxxx_gapps.zip”
Done
@ Merlot,
The update procedure you posted assumes that you downloaded the CM10 (12/25) image from the following thread (http://iamafanof.wordpress.com/2012/11/18/cm10-0-jellybean-sdcard-img-for-nook-tablet/). ROM File (cm10-121208_acclaim_sd_hd_img.rar). Note the “sd” in the name which stands for SDCard.
There is an updater-script that tells the ClockworkMod recovery program where to install the CM10 ROM (either on EMMC or on the SDCard).
The SDCard image posted by the OP in the other thread has the updater-script install the CM10 ROM to the SDCard. Looks like you downloaded the CM10 ROM Image (cm-10-20121225-acclaim-HD.zip) from this thread and the upadter-script in this ROM probably points to installing on the EMMC (internal partition of the Nook Tablet).
@Joe,
Could you provide me with the proper link to the page which shows one how to update? I looked all over this site and I can not find it. Thanks!
@Merlot
I am going to assume that you are running CM10 off an external SDCard. If you are NOT ruunit it currently, please go here (http://iamafanof.wordpress.com/2012/11/18/cm10-0-jellybean-sdcard-img-for-nook-tablet/) and download the cm10-121208_acclaim_sd_hd_img.rar image file (http://tinyurl.com/b84e5n2). Then use WinImage to write this image to your external SD Card. This will now get you up and running a CM10 ROM off an external SDCard.
Now download the updated CM10 12/25 ROM (cm-10-20121225-acclaim-HD-SDC.zip (GCC 4.6) (http://tinyurl.com/au32v2l) and also download the GApps file (http://goo.im/gapps/gapps-jb-20121011-signed.zip)
Follow the update instructions below:
1) Extract the downloaded ROM to a folder on your PC
2) Use a SDCard reader connected to your PC
3) Put the microSD card into the SDCard Reader
4) Explore/Open to your microSD “BOOT” drive on your computer
5) Replace boot.img with one inside the ROM extracted folder you extracted in Step 1
6) Copy the downloaded ROM (cm-10-20121225-acclaim-HD-SDC.zip) into microSD “BOOT” drive
7) Copy the cm10_121011_gapps.zip file to the microSD “BOOT” drive
8) Insert the microSD card into Nook tablet device
9) Connect your Nook charging cable to your Nook Tablet
10) Boot into Cyanoboot’s Boot Menu by holding the ‘n” button on your Nook Tablet
11) Select “4) SDC Recovery”
12)In CWM, select “install zip from sdcard”
13) Select the “cm-10-20121225-acclaim-HD-SDC.zip” file. You can select by moving the Vol Up/Down button to get to your selection and “n” button to select the file.
14) Power off device
15) Repeat steps 9 through 12 & select and install “cm10_121011_gapps.zip”
16) Power off device
17) Power ON device by pressing the Power button (make sure your Nook charging cable is still connected) and you will boot into the newly instaeed CM10 12/25 ROM.
18) Setup your device and enjoy the new ROM!
There are other posts on XDA forums to create a brand new SDCard and install any ROM. For example here is a good one:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2061536
I flashed v12/25, everything appears to work fine including “about-tablet->status”.
Battery consumption while active seems a bit higher, I am curious if anyone else experiences the same.
How can I change the MAC Address to reflect each individual unit? I have 2 NT 16′s that are running CM 10, I tried 3 different build dates, via SD. I just recently updated the 2nd unit from CM7 and both units didn’t spend that much time on the wifi connection at the same time. However it has come to my attention that they do in fact share the same mac address in turn they end up getting the same IP address. Trying to manually configure the IP address wont work because the router registers the device via MAC address.
So I ended up installing it to EMMC on 1 of my NT’s and the MAC address issue is gone. However, that still doesn’t resolve the problem for others that want to run it from an SD card. Any input into it?
I tried to delete wl127 with no success
I ran into a minor but perplexing issue with v12/25 in trying to set the home-screen wallpaper using gallery jpg file: somehow the picture got mostly greyed out — see the screen cap at http://s1127.photobucket.com/albums/l624/digixmax/?action=view¤t=Screenshot_2012-12-29-22-32-04.png and the original picture at http://s1127.photobucket.com/albums/l624/digixmax/?action=view¤t=Sunrise.jpg.
I never had this problem before. Any pointer/thought on the problem cause would be appreciated.
Thanks again for your work on these Nook Tablet ROMs, iamafanof; The factory B&N installation is very limiting, and being able to install Jellybean 4.1.2 & fully utilize Google Play makes these tablets much more useful.
I have been testing cm-10-20121225-acclaim-HD.zip (GCC 4.6) installed to emmc since you posted it, and I haven’t had any stability issues. Overall, most apps run smoothly with no issues, and are comparable to my Nexus 7′s performance.
A 64Gb Sandisk Ultra is readable by the Nook Tablet, which gives it a big advantage for storing .mp4 movies vs my 16Gb Nexus 7 with no SD slot.
I only have a few issues, probably not related to the ROM, more to do with specific applications.
I noticed MX Player works only in S/W mode (software decoding). If I try to force it to H/W or H/W+ (hardware decoding), MX Player reports that it cannot play in hardware mode. MX Player on my Nexus 7 will play the same mp4 file in all 3 modes (S/W, H/W, or H/W+) Does anyone know if the inability to play in H/W mode is a limitation of the Nook hardware, or the ROM? I’m not that worried about it since S/W decoding seems to work just fine, but if H/W decoding should work then I’d like to know. I haven’t tried earlier versions of the ROM (CM7) so I don’t know if they have the same issue.
Another oddity… I have a puzzle game (Animal Puzzle) that my 2 year old loves, that does not work on the Nook Tablet. It starts, then reports a warning: ‘Not compatible with this device”. I contacted the developer to see why, and the initial response is that the version of the app I downloaded from Google Play is still detecting the tablet as a “Nook”, and it won’t let the “Android” version of the software to work. Apparently there is a Nook version of the app in the Nook store that should work if I could download it.
I have a similar problem with the Hulu+ app, it reports a Device not supported [142] error.
From what I can tell, these two apps out of over 50 I installed are the only ones that are looking at attributes of the tablet, and deciding not to start. Basically, I think they are white-listing specific hardware and/or ROMs to run on. I don’t know which attributes they are looking at (Model number, Android version, Kernel, CPU, etc) but can any of these be spoofed to something generic and accepted like the Nexus 7s info?
Hello i have cm-10-20121225-acclaim-HD.zip (GCC 4.6) installed to emmc aswell and everything works as it should, no problem with anything that other users are experiencing. HW+ oand HW work great. Just one thing the ROM sometimes lag, i haven’t set it to ondemand because interactive is more battery friendly. Also when im in one app sometimes it takes more time to think resulting in a black screen that sometimes drops a wait popup. Is there a way maybe by flashing another kernel to resolve this issues and make my nook perform bit better?.
I know by flashing Chris kernel from CM10 v8.0 i can get up-to 1200mhz but im not sure if that kernel have deep sleep fixed.
It’s not the kernel that’s causing lag. Are you using emmc or sdcard installation?
TBH, I don’t stay on one rom for long to test for stability. There are a lot of changes that goes into the 3 experimental builds. A lot of the cyanogenmod projects are replaced with one altered one for linaro/gcc 4.7. It could be those projects causing side effects. I might just release a regular gcc 4.6 build without those altered projects.
I am currently trying to get mic to work on cm10.1. cm10.0 is pretty much in the book.
as i said i have the latest cm-10-20121225-acclaim-HD.zip (GCC 4.6) installed to emmc.
Thanks for your reply, this ROM work wonderfully. I understand that as new releases come out you may want to move on and close some projects but CM10 is the only one that everything work so far and stable enough to make it a daily driver. I’m happy overall with this ROM so i’ll keep it, maybe i try the linaro version just to compare, if i do i’ll report back.
BTW have you thought on implementing smartassv2 CPU governor and SIO and/or VR I/O schedulers?
Have a happy new year and thank you for all your hard work!
smartassv2 CPU governor and SIO and/or VR I/O schedulers was suggested a while back by meghd00t. I told him I wasn’t going to bother with it because the negative outweigh the positive with those schedulers. Best schedulers is still the default and noop. Most people won’t even bother with schedulers so it’s pointless to implement them.
I thought deadline was better over noop, guess i’ll have to test them all. About Zram what do you think, i used to use it on my samsung captivate with devil’s kernel. Would you suggest to use it so far i have it on 26%. Thanks again
@iamafanof
Which governor do you recommend?
Thanks
Also, I want to report that CPU spy reports missing 800 frequency. It shows under All state < 1%
Interesting; I haven’t seen H/W or H/W+ work in any of these versions. I just tried again, wiping the data, performing factory reset, and clearing caches prior to flashing cm-10-20121225-acclaim-HD.zip (GCC 4.6) & installing gapps. Fresh install of MX Player still locks up attempting to play a video until I allow S/W decoding. I’m wondering now if I am installing the right ROM, or if I have a defective tablet? Maybe it is the type of video file I’m trying to play; they are .m4v files ripped via Handbrake, though I know the Nexus 7 has no trouble playing them with H/W mode in MX Player.
i’ll make a small video showing HW+ working with the latest build (GCC 4.6) via lan not lacally. I use CIFS+Mizuu beta+MX player apps to stream all my movies. i’ll post a link when i have it uploaded.
Thanks for all your hard work, Have a great new year. I’ll install the “final” and wish you well. No need to report any issues because after all it’s F I N A L….. Smile.
Thanks again
The model number in Settings->About Tablet is “NookTablet”. The model number on the back of the tablet is “BNTV250″ There appear to be a lot of variations of Nook tablets out there, so I hope cm-10-20121225-acclaim-HD.zip (GCC 4.6) is the right ROM for my tablet.
Can someone recommend diagnostic tools to test hardware acceleration on these machines? I tried Quadrant, and the full test came back with a total score of 2154, a 2D score of 292, and a 3D score of 1973.
I have that same model number and everything works fine…… It’s a 16 Gig Tablet I got it used from ebay a few months ago.
Thanks for confirming. Mine is 16Gb too; I bought it refurbished from ebay from B&N. HW acceleration is the only item I am having trouble with; I tried a couple video players. (VPlayer & MX Player) I am running the 12/31 ROM now.
I’m running the “Xfinity player” and everything looks great, I tend to watch a lot of Youtube things and I have no problems I don’t watch movies other that the ones from Xfinity so I can’t tell you about any problems with HW acceleration in anything other than what happens with Xfinity “if it uses acceleration”.
I just did a full backup using CWM and then installed 12/31 after doing the regular wipe data/factory reset and also wipe dalvik cache, then restored the data file and I was back up and running. So far so good. I don’t know whatelse I want this Tablet to do for me. After all it’s NOT an Ipad, …… Smile, and for the price I’m very happy with what I can do after installing this ROM. The battery is another issue, BUT all I really need to do is turn it off after I’m finished using it, not a big deal.
@joeschmo9000
I am using the 12/31 final ROM. Initially I had no issues using MX Player and HW+ decoding on a bunch of mp4 files. However I had issues using MX Player and HW+ decoding on one of the mp4 files I had transcoded using Handbrake. And then all my previously working mp4 files refused to use HW+ and had to fall back on SW for decoding. However a shutdown of the tablet and another start seems to have restored the HW+ decoding on the files. The only problem file still refuses to play using HW+. So looks like it is the transcoding with a particular software that is causing this issue.
I tried various other players like BS Player, Dice Player etc .. and all of them are having issues playing one of the files using HW decoding.
Can you give me the media info on the troubled mp4? If you have Media Player Clasic (MPC), just go to properties/mediainfo. I need the format and format/info or the whole video/audio info.
Thanks for taking a look at this…
I played the same video with MX Player in a Nexus 7, & a Nook Tablet with a the 12/31 CM10 build with factory reset & clearing caches prior to flashing.
The Nexus 7 plays the video fine in H/W, H/W+, and S/W modes.
Nook Tablet MX Player Modes + messages
H/W -> “Cannot play this video with H/W decoder.”
H/W+ -> “Cannot play this video with H/W+ decoder.”
S/W -> No error messages; works fine.

Thanks; this might help narrow it down, though all my videos are from the same source. I’ll see if I can find mp4 files from other sources to see if they work. I’m seeing the same thing as you; even after multiple shutdowns, and re-flashes, and re-installs.
I have a 30 second clip that has the issue here: http://db.tt/TMOFouWp
Well, I downloaded your sample video and it didn’t work on my Nook Tablet. I see that it’s created from HandBrake 9.8 x64, so I downloaded it and test covert a video with High Profile. The video did not work. So I downloaded HandBrake 9.4 and test convert a video with High Profile and the video work. So the answer is, use HandBrake 9.4 and your video will work on Nook Tablet.

@iamafanof: it is certainly limited to specific types of video files; I don’t think I’ll convert 60Gb of movies since S/W decoding works. It’s good to get to a common understanding of what is going on though, where we are all seeing the same result. Bottom line is that the tablet is able to do all I wanted, and more with this ROM. Thanks for helping all of us.
Flashed the final CM10 build (on the final day of 2012
), it works great …
@iamafanof: thanks for your CM10 builds, and happy new year!!!
Downloaded the letest 12/31 CM10 image file and made a new 32GB SDCard with this image. Repartitioned the DATA to 2000MB and rest of the SDCard allocated for storage. Card works perfect and everything run smooth.
@iamafanof … Thanks for the updated image file and Happy New Year!
I don’t see any *.-acclaim_sd_hd.zip” past the one from 12/8? I am confused as to how to use the final build in different partitions. I’ve been using two instances of CM10.0 (to keep them separate for normal use that I share with others that want to use the Nook and the other alternate boot for myself). I edited the void.fstab to give each booted OS its own partition for user data without sharing a partition to mount, which works fine.
For the latest release do I just use the stuff from cm-10-20121208-UNOFFICIAL-acclaim_sd_hd.zip, or is the one from 12/8 the last one for which the alternate partition boot files are posted?
I’m currently using the 12/3 version, and the only problems I have is that the screen will sometimes (rarely but not uncommon) go totally blank (though still with the backlight on) and I’ll need to force a hardware shutdown and reboot, and some of the settings options cause a “Unfortunately, settings has stopped.” message. That’s why I was looking to update to the final build here, to see if that fixes it. It’s not urgent enough that I’ll mess with it without asking about the *_sd_hd thing first though.
Many thanks in any case! Even with the system instability I currently have it’s still an amazing improvement over the limited stock OS, and I love that I can use this without messing with the internal OS!
Sorry if this is a noob question but how do you do a factory reset and wipe /system on the sdcard from recovery? When I tried to wipe /data it wiped the /data on the emmc and not the install on sdcard. I was trying to do a clean install.

hello all,
I have a question. I flashed the CM10 to internal emmc and it runs fine. is there a way to mount emmc as sdcard so that (in some cases) the Apps can put files and data in it instead of needing a SD card?
I have read about such discussion for Nook color but not for nook tablet.
thanks!
Edit build.prop with FileManager, change persist.sys.vold.switchexternal=0 to 1.
thanks. that did work. however, only 1GB of memory, instead all the available free (~11G) can be used. Is there a way to increase the size of the emmc partition?
thanks,
CC
Changing persist.sys.vold.switchexternal=0 to 1 swap the EMMC with SDCARD. What you are talking about is repartitioning your DATA and EMMC partition. Default Nook Tablet have 1GB DATA, and 11GB EMMC/MEDIA. The details is somewhere on XDA.
got it. thanks.
i also found the repartition thing. will give it a try. thank you very much for the useful tip.
Where you able to figure out how to do the data and emmc partition resizing? I have the CM10.0 12/31 final verson installed via internal as well and I found the xda threads about doing the partition resizing however I cannot get USB drivers for ADB to work and I was wondering how things where going for you. Thanks much!!
yes i figured it out. the link is here
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1531120
be sure to download the exact files as mentioned in the post.
i had a few glitches in the first try so i repeat the process and it went fine.
i think the internal emmc has speed equivalent to a class 10 sd card but would use less power.
on the ADB driver you have to *manually* changed the .inf file to match the current nook tablet hardware id so that the adb driver can be installed… this is the critical step, i think.
or do a search on google and you should be able to find solution for such problem.
@iamafanof,
I am planning to install the final 12/31 CM10 image to EMMC. Should I root my Nook Tablet before installing this CM10 image or is this CM10 image alredy rooted?
Thanks!
I installed mine from a root sd card with Clockwork Mod. Once you make a bootable sd card and install CWM then you can install this ROM. I’m sure there is someone here that can point you to how to make a bootable sd card. Check out this youtube vid it should help http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UCET91ElYmc
I installed the 1231 rom on SDCARD and able to boot flawlessly. However, I am faced with difficulty in turning on WIFI. Please advise.
So no feedback from my Dec 28 post on how to resolve the MAC Address issue? Deleting WL127 does nothing but kill wifi altogether. I have performed a clean install. Wiped everything and still the SD card Mac Address duplication issue continues.
Download the 12/31/12 rom build. Open the rom and copy /system/bin/fix-mac.sh and /system/etc/firmware/ti-connectivity/wl1271-nvs_127x.bin to the same location on your Nook Tablet. Delete /system/etc/firmware/ti-connectivity/wl1271-nvs.bin and reboot.
One issue with many recent CM10 builds is the NT while asleep will not detect USB cable insertion and kick into charging mode; I would have to wake it up with the power button or “N” button for it to go into charging mode (afterward I can put it back to sleep with power button and it will stay in charging mode).
I had not considered this a big concern (i.e., when connecting the USB cable I just have to remember to wake the NT up and check that it says it’s charging), until today when someone over at XDA reported that his NTs using a different CM10 build (SGT7) following a complete battery drain cannot be powered on even after having been plugged into the charger for 24 hours.
This makes me think that his problem might be a natural extension of the same issue I have: the NT so completely drained it cannot be booted up and go into active state such that it would detect charge mode.
Obviously it would be risky for me to try testing this. Short of going back to a much older build (with its other issues) I can only try make sure my NT battery does not run too low …
I’d like to note this problem here to get others’ and iamafanof’s thoughts on it. It seems that if my hypothesis is correct the problem needs to get addressed (even if not in CM10 then at least in 10.1)
I too experience this problem with the 11/18 build…I assumed this was taken care of in the 1231 build although I haven’t had time to upgrade my NT to it yet. I didn’t realize that if my battery got too low that there wasn’t a way to trigger charging mode….a scary thought.
Just to be clear: it’s purely a conjecture on my part, hopefully I am wrong in that charging in an off state induced by battery-drain is governed by a different logic.
Install CM10 on my 16gb Nook Table and it is running great. Plugged USB cable into my Windows XP machine and explorer shows a removable I and a removable J drive, but when I click on them it says to insert disk. I want to copy a epub book from my pc to tablet. Any ideas??
Thanks
Which build date? All of my new build uses MTP while the older one uses Mass Storage. MTP is what most android devices like smart phone/tablet uses and I find it transfer files faster. On Windows 7/8, the device driver automatically get install. On XP, I think you need to update your Windows Media Player to 11.
Else, google “site:forum.xda-developers.com mtp driver for xp xda”
Else, edit build.prop, “persist.sys.usb.config=mtp,adb” to “persist.sys.usb.config=mass_storage,adb” (without quotes)
Sorry for delay in replying.
Build is 11-24 and am running Windows XP SP3. I will try updating to the 12/31 build.
Many thanks for the replay
Installed 12/31 build on emmc last night. I was able to see the internal storage and the SD card but after a restart when I go to the storage setting it quits out back to the home screen. I thought maybe it installed funny so I wiped the NT clean and reinstalled but it’s still won’t recognize my card and when I go to download anything I get a msg saying I can’t because I don’t have an SD card.
Please tell me how to fix this. Thank you in advance.
Take your sdcard out and re-insert. Remount sdcard, if needed in storage setting.
Did exactly as you advised. This did not fix the issue. When I tap mount sd card, settings close and a message appears saying that “Unfortunately, Settings have stopped.” and I can click ok. A notification has also appeared it says preparing for sd card – checking for errors but it just stays there. Ive already wiped data and cache. I dont know what the issue is. I tried another class 10, 32bg card and a class 4, 16gb card and I have the same issue. Please advise and thank you again in advance for your insight.
I don’t have this problem and I can’t duplicate it. Format your card with SDFormatter.
What is the status of Bluetooth and USB Host in CM10? I have not seen mention of either one.
I thought there was a Bluetooth chip in the Tablet, but now I read somewhere that there actually isn’t!
Either way, if there indeed is one it’s not enabled in any ROM AFAIK.
I originally bought NT with intent of using USB Host with my application (with fallback of bluetooth) because of confusion on reading NC posts. If indeed neither are ever going to happen for NT then I need to look for another solution (tablet). Please forgive me if this is a newbie question as my software background does not include Android or Linux, but since both BT and OTG are available on NC, is there no way to port that software to NT?
Nook Tablet is asking for drivers. Where can I find one. Thanks
ps. I think it’s because it is set to MTP.
Details? I like to ignore these kinds of comments because it’s wasting my time trying to figure out what’s wrong.
Every new android device on the market now uses MTP. Windows natively support MTP. OSX support MTP with Android File Transfer. For linux, http://www.mossroot.com/worlds/2008/11/22/connecting-the-creative-zen-x-fi-to-linux/. I have no idea what OS you are using. I have no problem with MTP and I find it a lot better than Mass Storage.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Media_Transfer_Protocol
I have windows xp pro nothing special. I ussualy download stuff directly to NT, but this time I decided to connect it to pc and got standard dialog for drivers.
FYI
I just switched to USB mass-storage device and I can see both internal and external drives.
Thanks
Is there a way to mount a virtual SD card (using /system/bin/sdcard) to utilize the entire /data partition, similar to nexus devices?
Can you play asphalt 7 in this rom?
Asphalt 7 runs fine; I’ve used it on this ROM to race someone else via Wifi. The detail isn’t as crisp as a Nexus 7, but it is pretty smooth.
Thanks so much for making my nook fun again! I’m running the newest version posted and am having an issue with hulu plus- system reporting no drn to run it. Any thoughts? Thanks!
Btw- running android 4.1.2 on nook tablet.
I did an emmc install of the 20121231 update, 16gb nook tablet. It seems like the WiFi drops on and off, any help is appreciated. Thanks for the hard work.
One last question what does the10-touch driver do?
Sorry, i touched to Touchscreen Firmware Flasher and did an update. And my screen couldn’t touch anymore. What can i do to recover my Nook to previous ? Thank you!
