[ROM][DEV][CM10][Linaro] SGT7 Jelly Bean Rom 0.4

TheForceUnleashed · Aug 9, 2012

Linaro CM10 SGT7 Port For Nook Tablet
Don't Sell This, or you will be facing the RATH OF CHRIS!

This ROM was ported from the Kindle Fire's CM10 Linaro SGT7 build. After some lib tweaking for 2 days, it works!

I will update this every single time Chris updates his, or when another CM10 Linaro SGT7 build is released for Kindle Fire (a one with significant changes)

What Works:
Anything that works in Chris's build
Speed in UI increase-some

What doesn't Work
Anything that doesn't work in Chris's build

New Add-ins:
Multiuser support
Edge swipe navigation (can be used to quickly toggle the status bar with a single swipe)
Show/hide statusbar from power menu
Additional launcher settings
New Bootanimation
New Horizontal Phone Mode
I am not responsible for what happens to your Nook if it becomes bricked, or turns into radiation, or explodes. It's on you for choosing to install this. You blame me, Chuck Norris will become disappointed in you.

Instructions:

Go into CWM-TWRP Recovery (Yes, this is a 3.0 kernel port, the first of it's kind)
Backup your previous rom
Wipe Data, Cache, Dalvik
Flash Rom Zip
Install Gapps
Enjoy

Thanks to:
Chris (for making a build to base from)
Kuzma, Hashcode, Rebellos (for making a kernel for this to work on)
SGT7 developers

This works for 8GB Nooks! If you experience bootloops, try flashing with TWRP.

5 minutes in and ok,

on 1st boot, tablet shutdown before loading homescreen, turned back on, and it loaded fine,connected to wifi, had a look around, fine. rebooted to recovery which just black screened on me. powered off and on, just installing gapps. but whilst on, seemed stable. all other ics and jb roms seem to crash on me every 20 seconds for some reason.

That problem occurs with Chris's build aswell. It's because of the kernel. Random rebooting.

yeah im read that, its just done it again, but its still being more stable for me than the others, just had another good 5 mins, which is good for my tablet! haha, looks so much nicer than cm7!!

Thanks, man

I'm working on an Aroma version of this rom, hopefully it works

EDIT: Aroma's system ui is arguing with me, so no Aroma version

Great job, I just don't get... How is it related to Linaro?

TheForceUnleashed · Aug 10, 2012

Well, the original rom was built using Linaro toolchain. I ported that rom here, but I think Linaro was in the Kindle Fire's boot image instead of the system

It's somehow faster though...

hinxman · Aug 10, 2012

I'm noticing that it seems a bit more stable as far as kernel crashes or random reboots that the 0.4.1 version of cm10 was for me.

Only real issue I've had is that some apps "aren't compatible", such as hbogo, and that some apps fc when switching from vertical to horizontal, namely apex launcher or even the default launcher.

All in all though, a very nice job.

Edit: I noticed that it sees the sdcard as a usb device, which means when you reboot, you have to reinstall any apps that you had on the sdcard, and that you can't see the storage in the settings.

Flash does not work for JB in play store though. Check the forums for side loading it.
This should fix your problem with play store. I'll see if I can make sdcard work with some build.prop mods tomorrow. For now I need sleep

Interesting side note, discovered last night, changing the LCD density in the build prop to 130 enables tablet mode... not sure if it works on other JB builds as well, but I wouldn't see why not.

TheForceUnleashed · Aug 10, 2012

It works on other JB builds, it's just that everyone has it set at 160 in the build.prop in their builds. I'm using my rom right now in tablet mode

BTW, next version will be hosted on goo.im instead of MediaFire!

Swiissjokr · Aug 10, 2012

This ROM is awesome! Very very smooth, apps open in a snap, and rotation is on point! Just some problems with the screen going black then I have to force reboot, and also Google Now, does not work

I'm sorry guys but I have to go back to school Monday, and my Nook will have to go back to stock 1.4.3 for a long while. I'm not sure during the school year I'll keep my Nook, but I'll still try to port for you guys!

I'll still remember you guys!

I've tried to install 3 or more times. Re downloaded file, with and without gapps and i can't make it past the boot animation each time. Any suggestions?

You have an 8 gigger or a 16 gigger?
