Alright I'll load it back up for further location testing. Any word on PIE controls or updated TWRP?

If you go to Succulent's blog post about CM11 for HD+, he has a link for flashable TWRP 2.6.3.0 if you scroll down a bit. It's running just fine. It tries to mount data1 every time like an sd install, but that's nothing that matters. It is a proper emmc recovery.
Sorry I don't have a direct link for you.

8x8 fuzz kernel
Ask and it shall be given. If you are lucky and someone feels like it.
Here is a cm-11.0 kernel, totally stock except for the fuzz being set to 8x8.
https://app.box.com/s/rthz1qb4iwyaijrprjdw
If anyone wants to mirror this, feel free. My account got maxed out for a couple months last time I posted a kernel. I expect this will be less popular.
Hope this satisfies all of you with very bad touch screens. Don't expect regular updates. Mine works best with 3x5.
No HD (Hummingbird) version is planned since I haven't heard nearly as many complaings about their touchscreens. And, I don't have one to test on.
New working file uploaded. Link above points to the new one.

Netflix and HDMI
Not a major problem, but one that I have:
Netflix video will lag on a monitor. On the Nook the video and sound is fine. Is there a fix? Or is it just the video processing unable to handle two screens at once.
Is there a way to save power by turning off the screen with using the HDMI cable? Running both screens limits the useful battery life to less than three hours.

Install failed on assert == "ovation". I definitely have an HD+ and am running CM11. Was using CWM from OP.
Which CWM from the OP? The SD or internal version? And what zip were you trying to flash when you got that message?

Emmc (6.0.4.6). Was trying to flash drmarbles fuzzy 8x8 kernel referenced in that post.
StatusBar brightness on HD+
To those folks who asked why status bar brightness control wasn't present I would like to say "Thank You!".
This was a bug in cyanogenmod. Nobody had noticed it. It was left over from cm-9 and cm-10.0 days when tablets didn't have status bars. Now, they do. I submitted a patch to cm to fix this and it was accepted today. From now on, all tablets will have the option to control brightness from the status bar. It was just an oversight that it hadn't been enabled before when tablets got the status bar forced down their throats with cm-10.1. All tablets will now have this option.
It may not be in tonights nightly but it will be in there afterwards.

That is the issue. You can only use that 6046 version to flash CM11 and the corresponding gapps zips. All other zips fail. You must use the SD version of CWM that you used to flash the internal CWM to emmc to flash other zips.

lsashing 8x8 kernel broken
I don't know why the assert isn't working. It doesn't work for me either. You could just edit that line out of
META-INF/com/google/android/updater-script
I won't do it for the uploaded kernel because Then folks could flash it to an HD or anything (motorola, lg, samsung).
I'll try to fix it correctly and upload a replacement. Something changed in cm-11 and the new CWM recovery we need for it.
Sorry that I posted a kernel that wouldn't flash.

It has to do with the update-binary in your zip. Use the one from the CM11 zip in your zip. Verygreen found the issue in a post earlier in this thread.

That is excellent news! Thanks a lot for taking care of this and getting it through the CM process.
The "statusbar" brightness control is back as of the 03/04 nightly.
However, while this may be a feature that was available in CM for years, it is not what I was expecting, not having seen what was referred to in the Hummbingbird. I was guessing we were going to have a brightness slide control, like the one that pops up when the "Brightness" tile is touched, to be shown in the notification area, similar to how it is on my JB-equipped Samsung phone.
Also, it appears the "swipe status bar" brightness, when enabled, doesn't work. But after years of using CMx equipped phones and tablets, I can honestly say I have never seen this work correctly on any of my devices. Maybe it's because I'm a device cheapskate (why do you think I have a HD+!).
How can we request an actual brightness slider controll be added like the one in Samsung ROMs?
I use the app Display Brightness to put a slider in the status bar. A single tap or swipe adjusts the brightness. It works great.

I just installed CM11 03/04 nightly, and indeed, the status bar slider is there now. And for my part, it works exactly as I expected and wanted: Slide your finger right/left along the status bar to increase/decrease brightness. I can do that quickly and easily, even in those cases when the screen is otherwise too dark too read.
I don't have experience with Samsung devices, but this is what I am used to from other devices, and how I want it to work.
Thanks again, drmable, for getting this fixed
FYI, what I am looking for is something like this:
Also, while I'm requesting features, maybe under Settings -> Device -> Buttons, it sure would be nice to be able to set the function of the "n" button and have CM remember that setting across updates. I have a hacked keylayout files that I always apply to swap the "n" and "power" buttons' functions but it'd be quite cool to have the option in the settings.

It's been working perfectly in my hummingbird since day 1. Maybe you just need to get used to it? I think it's better than a traditional slider bar, because with that, it will only work if you put your finger precisely where the button on the slider is -- which may be hard to do in bright sunlight. With how it's implemented in CM11, you can put your finger anywhere on the top of the screen near the status bar and slide right or left to increase or decrease the brightness. So even if you can't see the screen, you can adjust the brightness.
Also, thanks to drmarble for putting it in ovation. While my HD+ is still on stock (by design), I may decide to put it on CM11 one day, so this feature is greatly appreciated.
No, I must have been unclear.
It does not work on my HD+ at all.
Sliding your finger along the status bar doesn't adjust the brightness at all. It just does nothing, absolutely nothing.
I am not suggesting the feature on the whole doesn't ever work on any platform, but out of the past few I have tried, I have never seen it actually function AT ALL. But I admit I gave up trying it most of the time, and regardless of whether this works I still run CM on everything that I can make it run on. For the time being that is everything except my Rugby Smart which it seems is totally abandoned by the dev community.

138I see there's this new CM11 going, and thanks to @Hashcode who solved most of the complex problems already, here's my first stab at CM11 on our Nook HDs that installs into internal memory (EMMC).
The install is a lot similar to how it was done in CM10.2 days, but you will need a new recovery image (and a new sdcard image for those doing initial install):
So, For Nook HD+: Initial ovation sdcard image (cwm) | ovation recovery image (CWM)
For Nook HD: hummingbird Initial sdcard image | hummingbird recovery image (CWM)
I did some light testing and things seems to be working for whatever light loads I came up with, but still there are probably tons of problems that I have not yet noticed. Please write in the comments about what's broken and I'll try to fix it. Once it's good enough, I'll try to get official nightlies going for CM11 as well, I guess.
Latest CM11 EMMC images are now available as CM11 nightlies at:
For Nook HD+ get ovation builds
For Nook HD get hummingbird builds
There also might be experimental builds available referenced below in the history section.
(Also for completeness, For Nook HD+ sdcard image cm-11-20141129-UNOFFICIAL-ovation-sdcard.zip, | initial sdcard image for ovation )
For new Installs:
- Download the initial sdcard image
- ungzip and write to sdcard using dd (winimage or whatever for those stuck on Windows)
- Instert the card into your nook and reboot
- Flash the recovery image
- Flash cm11 image
- Flash whatever other extra things you need like gapps
- remove the sdcard
- reboot the nook
For upgrades from CM10.x (the only tested are 10.2 and 10.1). If you have any problems after upgrade - you'll need to do factory reset to clear /data:
- Download recovery zip and CM11 install and place it on the nook
- Reboot into recovery you already have installed
- Flash the recovery zip you just downloaded
- reboot into recovery again (This is important! Failure to do this will botch your upgrade and you'll need to wipe /data) so that the new recovery is started.
- Install CM11, install other stuff you need like gapps
- reboot
- enjoy
Useful apps:
Known problems:
- attempting to reformat external sdcard from android crashes volume manager - seems to be upstream problem of some sort. The sdcard is left in some strange state, so don't do it. (if you did, reformat the sdcard on your PC, all data will be lost either way)

My patch finally got merged. Nightly builds for ovation and hummingbird should start again.
Apparently I was just too polite in my efforts to get it merged. Next time we have an important merge I will make more noise to those who can merge it. I think we finally got noiced because our broken builds were preventing translations from getting through.
Anyway. We should be back to our normal nightly selves tomorrow unless someone triggers a build sooner.16It seems the initial release was surprisingly good from the get go. Here's a new one with some loose ends tied:
Enabled sdcard/usbcard filesystem autodetect, so now ntfs and ext4 should work too.
