Is usb host mode enabled by default or do I have to use a utility to get it enable ? Is there a thread somewhere that deals with usb host mode and CM9 ICS ? Also from what I gathered from searches in the forum so far block devices dont work right ?
You have to use an app ( Nook Tweaks )
There is a thread on CM7 ( verygreen's ) , most of it is the same on CM9

I'm planning to open a new thread for CM7+CM9 with updated info and some index for the original thread , hoping to finish this soon

Ah thnx for the info. I've seen verygreen's thread but I thought that was only for CM7. Will download Nook Tweaks and start experimenting with it

Oh and the thread you want to start will be quite helpful :)

Location services fix

This is my first post, so I hope this is the correct place to put this. Our problem with location services on the ICS nightlies is the same problem as discussed in this kindle fire thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1414582&page=2

I made this change to the 1-18 nightly and now location works using wifi networks in maps and weather apps.

Please note that the aapt file that comes with apk tools needs to be updated from the android 4.03 sdk.

EDIT: installing the gapps without the installer or at least the gapps for ICS the file I have is both. Everything is running good off the card now and leaving my internals alone. (I hope. LOL)


Not sure where to put this... I'm running Mirage 7.2.0 kang internally. I've built several sdcards to boot 7.1 and ran them before taking the plunge to internal. I've never had any problems I couldn't fix on my own by reading more.
This had me stumped though. I want to keep running Mirage and boot CM9 off an sdcard. I've built the card using the recent img from samiam's new post in the nightlies thread. Every thing went fine until the final boot. I'm stuck on the screen that says press the android to continue. When I press it an error comes up saying it failed. I press OK and it repeats. Rinse and repeat...
I just had a thought that I may have used the gapps with the onetimeinitializer which could be the problem.
I'll check back in after I redo this.

I have noticed that a lot of the issues we seem to be having with the nc are also issues on other cm9 ports to different devices. So hopefully the cm team will work it out for everyone.

I'm running the 20120113 build that was posted when the build restriction was lifted, and it's fantastic. What's the best way for me to understand what the other nightly updates are including/fixing? I found a link on the development thread but wasn't sure if that is what I should be looking at.

I'm having issues with Nook Color Tweaks. Currently running build 119 and have installed Nook Color Tweeks. The problem I'm having is that Nook Color Tweaks crashes when I try to adjust the DAC or the Headphone volume controls. Anyone else having this issue???

I had the same problem, but got past that point by using the modified Gapps from the 1st post of this thread, http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1444943 . That should work for you.

Turns out that the device ids have also changed on my NC, which is why ADB wasn't working for me. I had to add new entries into android_winusb.inf with USB\VID_18D1&PID_D002 instead of USB\VID_2080&PID_0002.
Thank you so much for the insight. I never would have gotten ADB working on CM9 without this hint. I had ADB working on CM7, but not CM9. Turns out they do have different device ids.

My device id was a little different yet (USB\VID_18D1&PID_2D02), but I was able to get it working by putting that id in the inf file.

For those that are still having trouble, make sure you have USB debugging selected and connect the Nook to your PC. Then open device manager and look for the "Nook Color" under "other" that has a question mark beside it. Right click on properties and look at the "Details" tab. It will show the device id that you can copy and paste to the android_winusb.inf file. The id should replace the one listed in the quote above under "B&N Nook Color". Save the modified file. Then you can update the driver by right clicking on it in device manager again and select "update driver". Then find the inf file you just modified and select it. Should work.

Sorry, but this might be a stupid question, but I'm a bit confused. I am running the ICS nightly off an sd card and I tried to flash the telephonypermissions zip by changing the name to update-cm- and booting into recovery, and it seemed to actually install, but the apps are still not showing in the market.

Any help? Thanks.

Is there another way to-correctly-flash these files?

Thank you in advance.

its 'update-cm-*' and whatever else comes after is fine.

Tried it, seemed to run fine but didn't work?

I tried it, both with the star and without (because I wasn't sure if the star denoted where the name of the file goes or that there should actually be a star), neither worked. Still can't see the Economist app.

Any advice?

Running the 118 build from samiam303. Haven't had any problems to speak of, had the sleep of death once and tasker keeps FCing when I use shortcuts but aside from that... Best. Alpha. Ever.

I planned on just booting it up to see how it was then reverting to a CM7 backup, but its stable enough that I think I'm just going to stick with it. Thumbs up to the devs!
