What happens when you combine mind-blowing speed and talent?

You get VANIR, b*itches.

So, from this announcement, are we to assume that they finally got it to work on the HD/+? I know that for a while now, we've been told that it wouldn't boot and that they are working on it. Should we take take this announcement as evidence that it is now working?

Just curious, cause I'm lazy and don't want to flash it if it won't work.

Thanks for confirming.

I initially spoke with Prime Directive when I saw the first build for Ovation by nuclearmistake and informed him that it wouldn't boot past the bootloader. He told me to get in touch with DHO and DHO said he was working on it.

Anyway, I notice that the builds you have linked are from nuclearmistake and not DHO. So, going forward, which builds will we see and are you going to be the maintainer for this device?

Looking forward to getting this going, as it's an awesome rom on my N7 grouper.

Thanks,
Mike T

Going to look further into it after work, can't get far enough for adb to recognize the device though.

Same for me, DHO asked me to get him a logcat but being unable to get past bootloader prevented device from being recognized. I hope you can get further. ;) Btw, just for the heck of it, I tried substituting the boot image from CM 10.2, Carbon 4.3 and your Slim rom but it still failed to boot.

Although I figured that the boot image was the same( same filesize) for those 3 roms, I tried all 3 anyway.

Still nothing? Or has this been working and I just never heard about it yet?

I have been using the Vanir rom on my GS3 for a couple days and I love the speed and smoothness. I look forward to using this on my Nook HD if it gets working. Any updates?

Here is an unofficial build I did that boots up fine:
vanir_ovation-UNOFFICIAL-20131023.zip - 151.04 MB

However, the ROM is very glitchy on our devices. In addition to the usual rotation bugs (and the Wi-Fi bugs introduced by a recent CM commit), there seems to be a whole new batch of graphical issues.

If anyone wants to start bug fixing this, you can PM me for some suggestions on how to resolve some of the typical problems our devices have.

If you want to build this yourself, you only need to replace Vanir's proprietary vendor repo with the proper one from TheMuppets, like so (this is pulling from my fork on github):
Code:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<manifest>

  <remote  name="github_kimjisoo"
           fetch="git://github.com/kimjisoo" />

<remove-project name="vendor_bn" />

<project path="vendor/bn" name="proprietary_vendor_bn" remote="github_kimjisoo" revision="cm-10.2" />
</manifest>

Vanir's build system is a little odd, and took me a few tries to figure out. Basically, you need to run "make -j# otapackage" after lunch, or it doesn't give you a flashable zip. There was no brunch option...

How's the lag compared to other available ROMs? Thanks!

I wouldn't be worried about lags, as the only bootable version of this rom is the unofficial one posted one post above yours by jisoo. LOL It's very glitchy and quite unusable, also with the OP nolinuxparty's account currently disabled, I don't think we'll see anything too soon from Vanir...if ever.

    Tried it this morning, no go, I get a dark screen at reboot and nothing else. I did a full wipe as usual. Going back to Carbon.
    Working on it =)
