Yes, that would be the nightly from the 24th according to:

Actually I just tried the latest nightly and it does not yet include that change. Soon though!
Press and hold volume down and power at the same time. It takes a second or two, but if you do it right, it takes a screenshot. Standard ICS.

If I install ICS onto the SD card successfully, I can't get into the CWM recovery to flash a zip file with the gapps. Is that making sense?

Am I missing something?
After you have installed ics and put the gapps zip on the boot partition, boot and hold the "n" button until the boot menu comes up. Then select "SD" and "recovery" and tell it to finish booting. It will boot into the penguin recovery and install gapps.

Edit: Maybe an even more straightforward way is after booting into ics, press and hold the power button, choose reboot followed by recovery.

I have 2 questions, First is I have CM7 installed on my emmc and CM9 booting on an SD card using verygreens install method. So how do I wipe the cache and davlik without disrupting the CM7. I have a boot SD that was for the CM7 install that does the recovery menu but that seems to affect the CM7?

2nd. Also if I format and wipe the SD and start over is there anything that needs to be done?

Thanks,

The recovery on the boot SD will just do things to emmc where you have CM7. Don't use it unless you want to change emmc.

Reflashing the verygreen SD image installer will be enough to reset everything. By doing that everything on the SD is erased and you can start over. I recommend you use the new installer referenced in the first post of this thread. It has been updated to work better with CM9.

I used that installer in the first post. So how do you flash the zip files in the first post and ones like the wifi fix to CM9?

Omap3 thats on the nook color is exactly the same as nook ebook and Motorola Droid X. These two devices are they not already rooted and hacked? Just a thought.

Thanks for the tips. I've tried the press and hold the power button but I did not get an option to boot into recovery like I do on CM7. It just powered off.

For the hold the "n" button, is that done inside ICS or done while the nook is booting?

Thanks.

For builds prior to 1/24 (which appears to be broken), the extended power menu comes up with a long press of the power button, only when you're in phone mode. You can get phone mode by increasing the lcd density as described in post 355 of the ICS/CM9 Discussion thread in the General Section. Note, you'll lose the back and menu buttons.

To get the boot menu press and hold "n" button as soon as you see the CyanagenMod logo and before "Loading" comes up.

Man, I don't know why there keep being so many issues with the builds not working right. I'm going to do a clean build from scratch.

That must be it then. I was using a nightly from the 24th.

One more thing, is the process still the same if I'm running this from an SD card?

Thanks!

Nightlies since Sam started from scratch (5-6) days ago are fine, just the extended power menu doesn't work on tablet ui....As far as I know. Last nights is fine for me.

So are the two of you saying that you flashed the nightly from the 24th or 25th and it worked, just didn't show the extended power menu? 'Cause I think what sextonma is saying is that the nightly didn't work at all. In either case, I'm rebuilding from scratch right now so there'll be a new, scratch-built zip dated as the 26th uploaded as soon as this build finishes.

Hi, wanted to setup ICS on my Nook Color and have a spare 1GB card. The way I understand it .

Step 1. Flash the image over the SD card from this link : http://sphsolutions.net/android/Encore/Nightlies/Misc/generic-sdcard-v1.3-ICS.img.zip
Step 2 : Copy the latest ICS nightly to the SD card (boot partition) from this link : http://sphsolutions.net/android/Encore/Nightlies/CM9/
Step 3. Boot up Nook and it will install ICS and shut down
Step 4. Copy the gapps file to SD card (boot partition) from this link : http://sphsolutions.net/android/Encore/Nightlies/Misc/gapps-ics-4.0.3-sam-noinit.zip
Step 5 : Reboot into recovery, gapps will be installed.

Q1 . Is this correct?

Q2. If I want to flash the latest nightly then what steps to follow on top of this install?

Q3. The process for flashing files like : http://sphsolutions.net/android/Encore/Nightlies/Misc/telephony-permission-fix.zip is to simply copy to the SD card and reboot into recovery? Or do we get a proper CWM menu and have to install zip from SD card?

Yes, i haven't had a bad flash since you wiped it clean. I am however on 1/25 and CWM(4.8.1.4) is saying I have an unsupported device. Build prop looks fine.

I used to hold Power and "n" at the same time and CWR would start. With ICS that went away at least for me but, I just tried this method and I get into the Boot Menu which I didn't expect at which point I scrolled down to the second option and selected recovery then "Boot Now". Worked like a charm.
