I thought DCDs 2.3.6 comes with the task manager that lets u kill processes with holding the X? It doesnt seem to be..
If thats the case, where can i find the latest version that works with 2.3.6? the latest one i have that worked with 2.3.0 was Task_Manager_2_0_30995_1?
I'm running 2_0_30487_2 with 2.3.6 just fine without any problems.
So I'm assuming mine is newer? Is there any newer version? And can you confirm that DCD 2.3.6 doesnt come with its own built in task manager? (well, other than the regular windows one)
Just to be sure, you're not talking about DCD 3.2.6 right?
As I used the HTC Task Manager that was included in the kitchen.
The DCD 3.2.6 pre-built ROM did not include HTC Task Manager. I loaded V2.0 Build 304487
as it was already on my storage card. It works fine. A later build should work also.

All those look pretty darn old to me.
anyone know why DCD left out the task manager? The rom does still run fast even though programs are open.

I have Vegan-tab gingerbread 7.0RC1 pershoot bl1.2.
Flash no longer shows up on my installed apps. When i search for it, It says it is not compatible for my device, google maps does the same thing too. Does anyone else have this problem too. I just noticed it last week.

Yeah, that was the only problem I had with that ROM. It seemed to always happen for me when the tablet would hard freeze and I had to reboot. Once it boots back up, anytime I access the Market, everything was not compatible with GTab.
I never found a solution other than returning to HC. It was a good ROM and that was the only prob I had with it.
Does [BL1.2]VEGAn-TAB GingerEdition v7.1.0 solve this issue?
Yes, it is much better running Vending 3.1.3.
If you have superuser rights, use AntTek App Manager to backup flash, than delete it from system (even sys application version), the Hulufied version from ASOP Ginger posts. You might need to install, update from market, remove, and install Hulufied version to stick.
Just download it on the PC..then hook up your GTab to the PC...drag the Flash 10.3 (Yes that one will work) into the storage on the device. Then download it from there.
All the apps (And there was ALOT) that shows up Non Compatible with your device in the Market...will actually work if you do it that way.
Thank you for all the responses. I went for the upgrade option to Vegantab 7.1. I am very pleased.
I'm looking a bit more at rooting via manual nooter on OS 1.4.1.
As of now, the Android Market is not working
In my hands, the BN shop is also not working. Books cannot be downloaded. (The reader does work, though, so you can shop and then download to your PC, then push the files in manually if you like.)
Together, those two elements not working argue against rooting 1.4.1 for anything other than study and development, I think.
- 1.4.1 installs on a device which had already been rooted (this device is rooted but not overclocked.)
- boot from a manual nooter 4-5-18 disks works
- after applying MN 4.5.18 and the APK enabler, the device booted. Root was retained and SU works fine (I was able to use adb wireless)
- install via ADB works
Other things to be aware of:
- this is not a Gingerbread release for the NC.
- the home button behavior is changed a LOT. Home Catcher for the Nook Tablet will also work here, though.
- the device automagically snarfs Google contacts if it's registered to a gmail address, it seems. There is no warning on that. I think that behavior is a Big Effing Problem.
About to try hopefully it works. I know I couldnt install update on 1.3 with CWM going back to complete stock and then update and then MN.
Yes, if CWR is written to your boot, you cannot install BN updates.
It might be possible to use a flashable 1.3 installer to write only /boot, reboot, then update to 1.4.1. I know there is a flashable 1.3, but I do not know where it lives.

Yeah I went back to 1.3 stock and then to 1.4.1 update.
It would be nice if some one conforms about Market
"It would be if some one conforms about Market"
Yeah, wouldn't it?
I'm figuring from the lack of screaming it's probably working.
Market is up. Some apps still missing. Having a bit of problem with Zeam launcher. Nook launcher is taking control.
Straight from my ICS i897 Sonic Screwdriver!!!!!
So from a rooted 1.3.1 you:
Use CWM to install a vanilla 1.3 ROM, then update to 1.4.1 via B&N download, then root using only 4.5.18? I seem to remember to root 1.3.1 you needed to root with 4.5.16 and then 4.5.18.
I have been able to use 4-5-18 without any problems on both 1.2 and 1.3.
You may not even need to install the vanilla ROM - you may well be able to install to a rooted device, so long as you have not meddled with /boot, either by installing a CWR boot internally or by overclocking.
My fast experiment this morning involved updating a rooted 1.3, then rooting that resulting 1.4.1.
Anyone check to see if it will still boot from an SD card, just want to confirm before update, but because it is still rootable I can always downgrade.
Edit: I am in the process of updating as I type this, I will post the results in case anyone else needs them.

Others have tested and confirmed, but that's not something they can change on this device with a software update anyway
Good to know, I hadn't seen it yet but my testing confirms this, thanks for the reply

In my case the Market runs but it's totally useless: I can't see my apps, it doesn't find most of what I want to install and when it does I can't install anything (it just goes back to the Apps menu). So it totally sucks since the B&N market is really lame!

For whatever reason, many Nook Colors that come stock with 1.3 installed just bootloop if rooted with 4.6.16, even if rooted first with 4.5.18. I can confirm this with a new NC purchased for my girlfriend's mom. Runs OK if just rooted with 4.5.18, except for it having the ancient market. Haven't been able to update the market yet, though gmail will update itself.
Updated to 1.4.1 (had to return to stock 1.3 to install the update, even without CWM flashed), using homecatcher to overcome the new "n" button "feature", but market is hit and miss. Was able to download and install Astro, but Titanium Backup doesn't want to download and install. I'll try sideloading it later.
What's the new n button feature? Is it possible to make a flashable update, like with 1.2 and 1.3?

If you press it once, it brings up the B&N "dock" that used to be at the bottom of the screen. If you press it twice, it brings up the B&N launcher.
Correction, I thought I was able to download Astro from market, but apparently I didn't. Now I've got no way to sideload apps, which makes this pretty useless...

ADB commands are your friend! Pretty much as long as you can enable ADB you can sideload with zero issues.

I realize this, but this nook is a gift for my girlfriend's mom, who lives out of state, and I know there's no way she's going to sideload everything using ADB... I need to get her a working market, even if I've got to go back to 1.3 and disable the update.
Ended up using 4.5.18 on my stock 1.3 NC. ADB Sideloaded in the Kindle app and a couple others and used the Nook App Manager to drop icons out on the main stock launcher page. I was really looking to add teh Kindle app so I could read all my purchased books on a single device, so I'm quite content. I'd like to see better market, etc but it's not a dealbreaker for me.
Just in case someone follows this thread, rooted 1.4.1 is working well now. manualnooter-5-12-18.zip does it for ya.
Market works. You can add non-B&N apps to the B&N app and home screens using Nook Color App Manager. Putting the Kindle app on there is no problem. Netflix, HBO GO and Max GO work. Hulu Plus refuses to run on the device. B&N subscriptions download and update the dock. B&N enhanced content (e.g. Wired magazine) work fine.
If non-techie friends and family want an enhanced B&N Nook Walled Garden experience, this will do it!
Hi, I'm on the standard HTC software, so no rooting, no custom ROMs, etc.
In the most recent update (a few weeks ago), the device was taken from (I think) Android 4.0.4 to 4.1.2, so from ICS to JB. However, in doing that, the ability to access the SD card via USB mass-storage seems to have vanished and has been replaced with MTP. This means that I can no longer access the filesystem on the SD card via USB, which I do with Picasa, DoubleTwist, as well as the audio system in my car.
HTC tell me to install the (rather useless and bloated) HTC Sync Manager, but this doesn't give me what I need. They say there is no way to go BACK to the previous version of the OS.
So, my wise friends, I'm asking if anyone has any idea as to how to solve this problem and again get back to being able to see the SD card as a USB mass-storage device.
Many thanks for your help.

Possibly that can work, but it's not going to help me in the car! I need the SD card filesystem to be visible, as it was before.
The thing is, that HTC removed UMS completely on JB in favor of MTP. MTP allows you to connect your device to a PC without the need to unmount before removing as it uses push / pull commands directly. So if your device in the car supports MTP, you are good to go. Otherwise, you can try to connect it via 3,5 mm audio clinch cable if your car radio has an auxialiary port for that.
well, theoretically you CAN go back to ICS, but you have to unlock your bootloader (might be a problem when it comes to warranty), flash a custom-recovery (for jellybean hboot 1.25) and flash a custom- or stock-rom based on ics.
i recommend ckpv5's myONEdx RC4.0 FX+, imho its the best and most bug-free ics custom-rom.

Hi guys,
I have a car stereo device made by Pioneer and it supports Android devices up to version 3.2 via USB connection.
I can not stress it enough how much I would like it to communicate with my galaxy which runs a v4.1.2.
The best I got was to download a USB Mass Storage enabler and access the SD card via the USB cable but that's not what I need.
I need the Pioneer device to recognize my phone and to be able to hear whatever the phone is playing.
Any help, advice or redirection would be really appreciated.

That's an option but I really prefer more of a moderate solution that doing that - if there is one.
Besides, I don't know any GB roms and starting testing one after another is really a painful thing to do right now, as I just recently finished configuring everything to match my like, using a sammy based wanamlite rom.
If there is a solution, my question is, well, what is it?
If not, my question is... what GB rom are known as popular, stable, well working and "support USB Mass Storage Class specifications" (that is what Pioneer stated in the car radio device specs)?
So...
Does anyone know how do I go about doing that?
Can anyone please take another look at my question?
About your 'popular GB rom' question: have a look at Checkrom (and make sure you check the GB version, because the ICS version has the brick bug).
