FROYO DESIRE ROMS ARE EXPERIMENTAL, AND MAY NOT BE RELIABLE
http://rapidshare.com/files/396857330/brafrorom6b.zip
This is essentially the same as DeFroST, but with no kernel mods. I'm also testing if SetCPU is really needed any more, with those mods disabled.
v6b
- Fix for a kernel bug, and corrected the driver. Remote key now works.
- Added compiler optimisations.
- (b) fixes broken wireless in 6
v5
Microphone now working in calls.
Credits go to:
Kali- and deovferreira for the kernel source
Paul @Modaco for the base rooted Nexus rom
Richardtrip for some of the config and userspace drivers I pinched from DeFroST
Me... well I'm just the chef ;-)
Working:
- Wifi N & Tethering
- GPS
- BT
- Digital compass
- Proximity sensor
- Optical pad
- Camera
- Keypad
- Headset
- Remotekey
- Touchscreen
- Vibrator
- LED
- many others
- APPS2SD
- SetCPU
- MIC
Not working:
- Ambient light sensor (works, but not calibrated)
- Camcorder (reboots the phone)
- Dock on USB
- Facebook contacts sync
Bug:
- Echo
SetCPU - Battery life
If you are experiencing battery live issues, then you should probably set up SetCPU. There are possibly still issues with the display, as some people are reporting high display battery usage. However, these steps can make a BIG difference.
1. Find SetCPU in your programs.
2. If you are asked to choose a device, choose the bottom item "Custom Frequencies..."
3. You may be asked for root access. You should allow this.
4. Tick "Auto-refresh" and "Set on Boot" and ensure CPI Governor is set to "ondemand"
5. No profiles are needed. I'd say you need a good understanding of how processes and threads work, and what the impact is to do any use here... and if that's you, then you won't be reading this guide.
6. Confirm your settings against the image (attached).
APPS2SD - Install apps on your SD card.
First of all... this is not APPS2SD. It is a new feature build into FroYo. Secondly, yes, it does work... just it hasn't been enabled in many apps yet by the developers (see the background posted below).
Some background
The Android platform now allows applications to request installation onto the device's external storage media (such as the SD card), as an alternative to installation onto the device's internal memory.
Application developers can express the preferred installation location for their applications by means of a new attribute of <manifest> in the manifest file, android:installLocation. The attribute supports three values: "internalOnly", "preferExternal", and "auto". At install time, the system checks the value of android:installLocation and installs the application .apk according to the preferred location, if possible. If the application has requested external installation, the system installs it into a private, encrypted partition in the external media. Once an application .apk is installed externally, the system lets the user change the storage location of the .apk and move it onto the device's internal memory if needed (and vice versa), through Manage Applications in the user settings.
By default, the system installs all applications onto the device's internal memory, except for those that explicitly request external installation. This means that the system will always install legacy applications onto internal memory, since they do not have access to the android:installLocation attribute. However, it is possible to configure and compile a legacy application such that it is installed internally on older versions of the platform and externally on Android 2.2 and later platforms, if necessary.
Note that requesting installation onto the device's external media is not suitable for all applications, particularly because the external media may be removable and unmounting/remounting may disrupt the user experience and system settings.
For more information about setting a preferred install location for your application, including a discussion of what types of applications should and should not request external installation, please read the App Install Location document.
Note: By default, your application will be installed on the internal storage and cannot be installed on the external storage unless the developer defines this attribute to be either "auto" or "preferExternal".

Install ALL apps to SD
However, it is possibly to force everything to be installed on external SD. I think this is the ONLY way you can do it, and then you have to move anything back to internal memory (such as widgets) which need to be there.
Using adb.exe (this is part of the android developer kit, but is also part of r5-desire-root (which you used to root your phone), available here: http://android.modaco.com/content/ht...-1-21-support/
adb will be called adb-windows adb-mac or adb-linux, depending on your os.
1. Install the ROM
2. Reboot the phone
3. Open up a cmd/bash prompt, somewhere you have access to adb
4. run: adb-<youros> shell pm setInstallLocation 2
To anyone who types "adb-<youros>"... you shouldn't be here!
This will force all apps to be installed to SD
Other options are:
adb-<youros> shell pm setInstallLocation 0
- This causes apps to be installed to their preferred location. For 99.9% of current apps, this will be internal memory, and it won't be possible to move them.
adb-<youros> shell pm setInstallLocation 1
- This causes ALL apps to be installed to internal memory. For 99.9% of current apps it won't be possible to move them.
MAKE SURE YOU MOVE YOUR WIDGETS TO INTERNAL MEMORY, OR THEY WILL DISAPPEAR
Hi, can you add a mirror please.
Great rom, I was previously using DeFrost, but now with BraFro I have wifi-tether working
I look forward to this, but wont flash it before its proofed good and the release log ofcourse

It's a completely different approact to DeFrost. This is a new kernel, hacked for the bravo board (desire), whereas richardtrip ported froyo kernel stuff back to the 2.6.29 kernel.
Basically, functionally, you're getting wifi hotspot, but we should hopefully progress further with this kernel.
Flash is in sync

Is a wipe necessary when changing from DeFroST 0.6 to this?

My understanding (which isn't great!) is that this is a less "hackish" way of getting Froyo to run on the Desire. DeFrost uses the kernel from a standard Desire ROM with the Froyo bits bolted on. This way of doing things actually uses a proper Froyo kernel thats been tweaked to run on the Desire, so should be more stable.
Is there any specific radio version this should be used with?
So the Kernel is the one posted here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=696846 ?
2.6.32.9? So WiFi 802.11n should work?
Also i assume it does not have oc/uv? :/

Added a script as an attachment to this post that walks user through the removal of applications from /system without the user knowing how to use ADB.
I'm very happy with my purchase of the HTC Desire back in April this year, but have always thought battery life could be better and believe it should be the main aspect to improve with custom software.
I've read and experienced good things in regards to battery life with 2.29.405, so decided to make myself a ROM that's based entirely on it, with only removing applications I don't use, adding undervolt for even more battery saving and adding AP2SD which is essential due to the low internal memory.
I thought I would share it in case others may wish to try it out, I highly recommend the new radio.
With thanks to:
Paul - for rooting the HTC Desire
UnrEVOked - for making the above easier and finding ways around the new bootloaders
IEF and co - for the S-OFF hboot
Cyanogen - His Wiki on compiling all things Android and guides on how Android works
Richardtrip & snq- - helped a lot with questions I've had
Teppic74 - Getting me interested in ROM cooking, his modified AP2SD and scaling scripts
iscaela - Undervolt driver
dsixda - for the Kitchen
What you get:
ROM based on 2.29.405 WWE RUU posted here
Busybox (1.17.3)
Bash
Init.d support
NOT deodexed
AP2SD+ via EXT partition (Supports EXT2 and 3)
Read ahead value changed to 128, improves reading speed from the SDCard
Undervolt driver with -100mV on all freq's (Hex edited to support the Kernel from the RUU)
Moved hosts to /data to allow updating via AdFree Android application without the need to have S-OFF (do not use the symlink in AdFree Android)
Perflock disabled (Hex edited to support the Kernel from the RUU)
Updated applications
- REM GSD
Installation Guide
If you do not have an EXT2 or 3 partition on your SDCard, create one before going onto step 2
Copy the ROM .zip file to your SDCard
Reboot into recovery
If you've come from a different ROM, wipe data, ext, cache and dalvik-cache
Flash the .zip file
If you downloaded the ROM Editor script and wish to use it - do not reboot and proceed to step 7. Otherwise reboot as normal
Extract the contents of the ROM-Editor.zip
Run the ROM-Editor.bat file
Select option 1
Read the warning
Follow the prompts on screen
Once applications have been removed, press 3 to exit and reboot
If you've not already installed the recommended Radio, reboot into recovery and install the radio
Download link:
http://www.multiupload.com/SAEPLNMOG7
Recommended Radio - one that comes with the RUU
32.49.00.32U_5.11.05.27
Addons (Attached to this post)
Reduce Undervolt - Reduces undervolt from 100mv to 75mv, flash if you're experiencing stability issues.
ROM Editor - Run ROMEditor.bat as administrator and follow the on screen instructions. Recommended to run after first flash.

thanks for the update
i'll give it a try
Sorry for my english and for my stupid question but hboot upgrade or not, and is german language supported?
Hi, I installed it 3 hours ago and I'm trying it. It's very fast at now (I put LauncherPro Plus)! So, some question for you:
1) Can I put SetCPU? It will work?
2) If i'd like to uninstall some features like facebook, footprints ecc can I do it?
Thanks in advance.
i waited this really thnx good work
just a question if i am not a fan of a2sd+ and i didnt make an sd ext
if i install this rom it will take more memory than the base rom or what ??
i mean in some roms if it's a2sd+ and u dont have ext after flashing the rom u find that the memory is very low and that's what i'm asking about now..

It's not a stupid question. According to the language menu it supports:
English
English Irish
French
Italian
Spanish
It doesn't contain a hboot upgrade.
You can use German via More Locale2 from the Market, failing that I can try and add German support. I'm surprised a WWE ROM doesn't list German.

1) SetCPU should work yes, this ROM doesn't support overclocking but will allow underclocking.
2) You can remove any applications you want by booting into recovery and removing the .apk and .odex file via adb shell.

It won't take any more memory than the base ROM. Nothing gets installed to the /data partition until you setup phone preferences via the setup wizard, install system application updates via the market or restore backups. Also due to the removal of peep etc, the ROM takes up less space on the /system partition.

thnx 4 ur reply
so now when i flash it even if i dont have an ext it wont take more memory ok
then i install like i always do modinstall location and choose to sd it will work normal like my last rom any thing i install will be in rom and phone remains like it is..
another thing plz
do u know that till now i am trying to download from rapideshare and i have to wait and to use firefox download so i asking if it's not hard and urnt busy to upload the rom on a better site than rapideshare like megaupload or mediafire cuz i want it i like ur work updated to the last ruu=)
Thanks for reply. Overclocking not interest me, I want to set only governor "ondemand" to increase battery life. Many, Many thanks!

I've never used mod install location so I can't say how well it works, I do know that:
1. Not everything can be forced to the SD Card
2. Some applications like flash, third party keyboards and applications with widgets you use, don't like being installed to the SD Card
In regards to the Mirror, does the multi upload link not provide you with more choices that RapidShare? Unfortunately I'm away until the weekend so there's not much I can do until I'm back.

Hi, I'm here again! Can I deodex your ROM with autodeodex from AmonRA? If I deodex it, then I can remove Application like facebook ecc simply from phone...but shall I remove HTC sense too?

Push the bootanimation.zip of your choice to /system/customize/resource, via adb. As its in /system you'll need to do via recovery, unless you're S-OFF and you know how to mount the system as R/W whilst phone is running.

Unfortunately, no.
Installation
1. Flash a recovery image
2. Copy the .zip file to your MicroSD card and boot the phone into recovery mode (call+volume-up+power)
3. Choose "Flash zip from sdcard" and choose the zip you just copied.
4. Wipe data+cache before rebooting. You should wipe unless you are already on a Froyo ROM.
Swap:
To enable swap on partition 3 or partition 2 (it will check partition 3 first and if it doesn't exist it will try partition 2)
$ su
# sdswap.sh enable
$ su
# sdswap.sh disable
Compcache:
If you are using are already using a swap partition on your SD-card, then you most likely shouldn't enable compcache. But if you do not want to partition your SD-card then compcache can be a good alternative.
Read more about how Compcache works here: http://wiki.cyanogenmod.com/index.php?title=Compcache
Enable compcache
In a terminal or using an adb shell type this:
$ su
# compcache.sh enable
Type free to confirm you now have 32Mb swap
Disable compcache
In a terminal or using an adb shell type this:
$ su
# compcache.sh disable
Type free to confirm you now have 0Mb swap
Advanced users
Compcache size, settings and swappiness is setup in /system/bin/compcache.sh
If you are an advanced user, you'll know how to proceed from here...
Some questions before putting this on, since I'm always a noob with installing new ROMs...
1) Is this in a stable and smooth stage yet (with everything working properly) or is this still in developmental stages? What is the difference between this and cas_xp's?
2) I'm currently running The Celestial Teapot at 652mhz, will this be noticeably slower considering it doesn't have overclock (does it?). What's the deal in regards to overclocking?
3) I can install this fine (flashing it) over Kalt Kaffe's TCT ROM (replacing it with this one) or do I have to somehow get TCT off first?
Forgive me if my questions are nooby, I always prefer to overask (woohoo new word) in regards to ROMs
Whatever the case, thanks for working on this! Awesome (really) if it works perfectly, but even if not, I like seeing any development with U8100.
Unfortunately, it won't boot on huawei u8110.
I've tried to delete data/fatory reset, but it didn't help.

1)This is @cas_xp's but modded.
2)I haven't tested yet. But the previous version wasn't as laggy. I'm going to try to bring OC in. To reduce lag.
3) You should probably wipe before coming to this ROM . I should probably put a short flashing guide in.

Guys, I just got my XT720 and I'm going to either flash it for Wanted's froYo or keep stock Eclair + Jit and App2SD. From what I read, wanted's lastest ROM seems the best option for me me once I don't use Wi-Fi, but I got some questions that I din't find in the release topic:
1. Does the native App2SD for FroYo works?
2. Flash Player Works?
3. If the native APP2SD doens't works, can I apply this method :http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=7909401&postcount=52 on this ROM, or if I do this before flash for 2.2 will it keep JIT em App2SD?
4. How do I check wich stock ROM I'm using? I just got the phone, bought it in USA, but I guess it's the Euro version coz MotoNav has only Euro maps.
I guess is it, thanks in advice.

1. yes
2. yes
3. I know Dexters ROMs will automatically move the user apps to an ext2(3?) partition if it's there. In addition Mioze7Ae patch to 1.3 offers additional configurations as to how this works, I'm not sure about XAVs ROMS in this respect.
I am watching XAVs ROMs & once he fixes the bugs in the 1.3 beta I'll be giving it a try. Kahlpowers also has some nice themed variations, you can check out his builds in his post in the theme section (you'll want to look towards the end of the thread as the themes at the beginning are based on 2.1 eclair).

Thank you very much, so I'll just flash Dexter's or Xav's ROM. I'll read a bit more about Dexter's lastest release, I was going to try Xav's coz people said it's faster than Dexter's and actually the only bugs reported aren't that bad ( at least for me) but Dexter's maybe a better option while Xav's doesn't fix all bugs. Thanks again =)
Guys, I flashed my phone to Dexter's 1.3 ROM, it's working fine, but I have "2" new questions:
1. I want install that Honeycomb Theme from Kahpower http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=11986041&postcount=192 how do I install it, same way I did to install Dexter's or gotta flash for stock and redo the whole process?
1.1- I NEED TO create that ext3 partition or is it optional?
1.2- Is this ROM the same as Dexter's 1.3 but with the new theme?
2- What's yours phone avarage temperature? Even with stock ROM I think my XT is a too hot near the camera, it says 41°C Avarage, is it normal?
Thanks in advice!
You download the KPs nandroid file & unzip it then copy the xthoneycomb folder to the /nandroid/openrecovery/ folder on yours sdcard & then just boot into OpenRecovery & nandroid restore just like the installation of Dexters Froyo, no need to flash back to stock & the ext3 patition is optional it will use it if its there but its not necessary. Khalpowers themes throw in a few other tweaks but are generally built off Dexter's Froyo.

Thanks again man, I feel safer now to do it, got this phone there isn't even a day and I'm already flashing it, so I'm a bit scared of doing any mistake and Bricking it..
And a final question, Quadrant and Milestone Overlock show CPU defaut Clock as 550 Mhz, shouldn't it be 720?
Edit:
Just flashed it: OMG this is so beatiful ! The collors match perfectly with XT720's collor (Graffite front/blue rear) ! And the way that the pages/tabs pop in on the screen is so cool ! It's a completly new phone, much better. Now is just install my apps and have fun! =D the only thing that is worrying me is that fact that the phone is very hot, even at 550 Mhz.. dunno if it's the XT720 normal temperature, but I don't think so.
I have the questions regarding the installation of the ROM Dexter,
1. ext3 will need to take before making the change in ROM, or that I can do next?
2. To work App2Sd is necessary to partition the SD?
Thanks for the help
1) you can do that after you flash the Froyo
2) you don't need to if you plan to use Froyo's Apps 2 SD
but you need to if you want to use Link2SD

@ Lezherus
Check here for info about Milestone OC settings (I run 1GHZ @ 60vsel, governed with SetCPU).
@ Tavinsky
It is my understanding that the check for an ext3 partition happens at boot, so you I think you could "add" this feature later & yes you will have to partition your sdcard to take advantage of the apps2ext feature. Note that Froyo native apps2sd which can copy compatible apps to a hidden folder on the FAT32 works without any re-partitioning.
HTH
Thanks guys, I'm about to change the ROM, their responses are very helpful.
Greetings!

I know, that wasn't my point.. I mean, thats like my XT's processor orginal clock is 550Mhz, even at 2.1 stock it was 550 Mhz, but isn't the stock 720Mhz? or there are differents types of XT720? And thats totally weird, but at 550Mhz my phone was a firebar ( 41°C at no use and 45 at common use ), I overclocked it to 1000Mhz and it's normal now lol (38°C).
BTW, someone know how to disable the new voice mail notification on status bar? It's stucked there and I can't remove it.. I've already read all my voice mails, tried everything and it still there =(
It should just automatically disappear. Delete everything from VM?

Wantedrom 1.3 screen rotate/youtube upload
So I've tried all the variation from Dexter's first 2.2 rom and have stopped with the latest Wanted Rom1.3
Two things I'm not liking...
1: my screen will not rotate if I am using the keyboard for a text message and would like the larger button layout.
2: I no longer have the option of uploading a video from my phone directly to Youtube. Youtube downloads were only done using stock2.1 so maybe I missed that this was missing from the roms I've previously tried as well.
anybody have any thoughts?
Wanted 1.3 - no screen autorotate
No rotate for anything.

Of course, it's "on". I even reflashed this ROM again and wiped all cache and set to factoty settings before it. Problem stays the same - no autorotate.
Tried Wanted ROM 1.2 and Dexter 1.3, everything works there. The problem seems to be in this Wanted ROM version.
no real wheel...
Sent from my Milestone XT720 using XDA App
Autorotate
The screen will rotate for games and applications that require a landscape view instead of portrait but not for anything where it is an option.
I backtracked a little and set my phone to wantedrom 1.2. I didn't even do a factory reset as everyone is always insisting is necessary. Autorotate fixed, all my applications stayed loaded and functional as before.
Overclocked at 1200 MHz , 80vsel and the phone is screaming fast.
After I typed this, I checked the wanted forum and found his solution to the sensor issue...

Hi!
I don't quite know how to start ;o) so...
This ROM is compiled from CyanogenMod 6, AOSP, Ezterry's and mine source code repositories . This ROM is not repackaged, moded, ripped, stripped, whatever version of any other ROM available on the Net.
Overview:
- 2.6.36.4 kernel from @Ezterry
- Native Apps2SdExt (also called Magpie) with Effdee fix (this also contains fix to pm/pm.jar used by f.ex. Titanium Backup when restoring app)
- xVold - mounts SdExt partition (if it exists) with data 2 SdExt
- Poor man SetCPU (as known from f.ex. Froyo by Laszlo) with safety valve logic by @hrk (CPU OC settings are not restored when phone crashes; you can safely try to push your CPU to the limit)
- CA Certs without compromised Diginotar keys
- CACertManager from Guardian Project
- long click on PowerWidget icon launches Settings (backport of CM7 feature)
- black bar theme (most of gfx were taken from @Sisterchick's themes but if you see your gfx used please let me know so I can give proper credits)
- uses AnyKernel so should boot on 2708/EBI0/EBI1 devices (tested only on 2708)
- stock Froyo Launcher (aka Launcher2)
- can use Swap or Compcache (both disabled by default and I don't really see the point of using any of them)
- no Gapps
2011.10.06 updates:
- Firerat's cache management ;o) script in /etc/init.d (https://gist.github.com/1182265)
- updated APN list
- Superuser 3.0 (upgradable via Market; please consider buying Elite version to show @ChainsDD some support)
Backports from CM7:
- RotaryRevamped, Lense and Ring lockscreen styles (Phone ui follows lockscreen style)
- Battery percentage on Lockscreen
- Restrict system packages to protected storage (this is security fix)
2011.10.13 updates:
- fixed bug in Phone app that caused crash when dpi setting were anything but 160
- fixed bug in Phone app that caused on screen Accept/Decline buttons not always show up
- Compcache/Swap is working again (note that activating/deactivating need reboot)
- Camera app with DCIM patch courtesy of @hrk
Known bugs/misfeatures:
The ROM runs perfectly OK without Ext partition. Only drawback is requester that pops up informing about unmountable SD card. What it's not telling is that only Ext partition is unmountable
No DCIM patch in Camera app this time (patch is against GB sources and I had no time to fix this; It's not hard just need time =o( This patch will make it into next release, sorry.
Apps2SdExt in this ROM is implemented at framework (system) level. Please do not use any scripts/apps that deal with applications installed on SdExt. Each and every application can be moved to and from SdExt using "Manage applications" under Settings. At some point in time I might add way to mass-move applications between SdExt, Internal and SdFat storages.

First install instruction:
1. Boot into Recovery
2. Make a backup.
3. Wipe all and everything (including SdExt)
4. Flash zip
5. Flash GApps
6. Reboot
Installing updates:
1. Boot into Recovery
2. Make a backup
3. Flash zip
4. Reboot
(I do my best so that all updates are of no-wipe type)
On first boot give the Dream some 10 - 20 minutes to settle.
Enjoy the ROM =o)
Credits:
CyanogenMod Team - this ROM wouldn't exist without them and I'd be stuck on Dounts =o)
Firerat - without him I'd never dig that deep in the Android code
Ezterry - always helpful and all that excelent work on kernels and GB for D/S
Sisterchick - your themes are great (hope you don't mind taking some gfx from them)
hrk - always helpful and skilled coder
And special thanks to all those who made Android the way it is now =o)
Sounds good! Will try it someday if i have spare time
I'll try it, will download when I have a chance.
Nice!
Very nice job...thank you!

If you had data 2 sdext and were using Magpied ROM, you might try to skip wiping SdExt. Not sure if this will work when coming from GB to FroYou but.... =o)

I used CyanogenMod 6 MDPI 20110501 from http://wiki.cyanogenmod.com/index.php?title=Latest_Version#Google_Apps
I think that is the newest gapps pack for 2.2 Dream. Market is updating to 3.1.5 after first market open.
EDIT:
Anyone has a problem with random restarts?
I'm looking for a Stable ROM for my Brother, he's taking control of my OG G1 I like the settings back port. Nice touch, I'll check it out when my phone isn't needed.
thanks for this new modded cyanogen rom.flashed,booted and running normal.
love the honesty of it too, Nameless Froyo, laughed a lilwhen I saw the boot screen xD
OKKIE! D/L and flashed last night. Looking good at first glance. I love it.
Niceee! on the move apps to SDExt/SDCard options. Now I get to move everything to SDExt.
59MB Internal spaces free? WOW! I am loving this , still got that and more even after about 5 - 6 apps installed. Usually I ran out of room by now and had to decide which apps I want to keep.
GGRRRR! Just got my first reboot (just now). I hate when that happens. Got to figure out why it does that.....
Wifi, Bluetooth works well.
Network connection even works in the building at my office. (cool) I get a constant signal finally (well not it about 85% stable)
Overall the system seem to run pretty fast, we'll see how it deal with my usage...
Battery life with wifi on, and used not so good. But I guess that's how it is. I am used to constantly keeping it charged up anyway, so no worry there for me.
just started getting reboots. 3 in last 15 minutes.must find problem.
ok' ran this thing all day at work with no more reboots. don't know why they just stopped.lol

You find out let me know... Only one for me so far. For me I think it was when I have apps open and minimized in the background. (no sure though) I have not had any reboot since then. Hopefully it stay that way for me...
I've nbeen bootlooping for approx 30 minutes now...

WOW! Did you ever got to the lock screen at all?
What SPL/radio do you have?
---------- Post added at 11:42 AM ---------- Previous post was at 11:38 AM ----------
WOOHOOO! With thinning out the apps that I don't need, my internal spaces went up to 66MB, with 9 apps extra apps already installed.
Still running as fast as the first boot up. So far so good.
All those that have probs with random reboots pleas try flashing kernel from this post: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=14768272&postcount=2427
Theoretically they are the same (same sources were used) but Ezterry uses GB toolchain to compile and that might be the diff.
@Eutherin well you could as well hook G1 to some usb cable and grab logcat for me, right?
If you want to report a bug/bootloop/etc at least try to grab a logcat. This will help solve probs.
By popular demand, I am bringing to you CM10.1 that you can install into Nook's internal ROM.
Note, this version totally overwrites your ROM, so back up everything important before proceeding. This is not a dual-boot solution, you do loose B&N ROM for good after installing this.
This is work in progress, yadda yadda.
Follow this install guide substituting various filenames with filenames below if you don't understand the below instructions
Get nookhd-emmc-cwm.img.gz, gunzip and write it to an sdcard of at least 1G in size (all content on that card will be lost). (use dd under Linux and MacOS, use Win32DiskImager or similar tool under Windows, use 7zip under windows to unpack).
Download CWM recovery zip if you want internal recovery to be replaced with CM one (if you don't know what is it about, then you need it). As another option there's a graphical TWRP recovery available. (you can only have one recovery option)
Also download latest nightly from http://download.cyanogenmod.com/?device=hummingbird
You can write installation zips for recovery, cm binary + whatever else you need and transfer them to Nook user storage (if you have it activated and all), OR add all these files + whatever other packages you might need right away on to the sdcard.
Insert sdcard into Nook and reboot the Nook, next install recovery (if desired) and the cm10.1 binary and whatever else you put there.
Use Install zip from sdcard, if you copied installation zips to sdcard, otherwise use "choose zip from internal sdcard" - both options are in "Unstall update from zip file".
Erase /data (only on initial install, this is important to avoid crashes on bootup! Naturally, make sure you have copies of whatever important info from there before you remove).
Remove the sdcard from the Nook. You might need to use this sdcard for your recovery needs in the future should EMMC content become badly damaged, so probably a good idea to have a copy of it somewhere.
Congrats, now on reboot you'll get into cm10.1 on your Nook HD.
When you need to get into recovery, you can either do "reboot to recovery" in reboot menu (need to enable that in settings) or reboot the nook, and when you see original nook boot logo, press and hold power + home buttons for about 4 seconds.
If you plan to use USB Host feature, you will need a gender changer, as B&N decided not to release a special cable so far. The control to enable USBHost is in quick settings panel (slide down in the top right corner of the screen to bring it up).
Known problems:
- Nook app reports incompatible in market (workaround1: just sideload it ; workaround2: change ro.product.device to nookhd in build.prop) - This is because they specifically blacklist Nooks! For workaround #2, revert the value back to hummingbird when done installing, otherwise you'll lose sound.
- Certain sdcards still remain unstable.
- Google Earth crashes when you press "my location" button, but works fine otherwise.

oh my god
finally, :laugh:
Works great.
Sent from my Nook HD running CM10.1 on emmc.
Sweet!!!!!!
Will test it out.
I guess this means we will have access to a working repo soon so we all can start building from source.

Woohoo! Fantastic work! And thank you so much for posting source.
New binary release: cm-10.1-20130612-UNOFFICIAL-hummingbird-emmc.zip
Changes:
- Fixed HDMI audio
- Fixed HDMI video upside-down picture
- Added usb audio support
- Enabled tabbed view in Settings app. (This seems to be looking ok, but if you find it's too bad, let me know and we certainly can try to roll it back or only have it for landscape or some other stuff).
Thank you!! :victory:
Running fantastic for me. Thanks.
AMAZING! I just wanted to cruise by the forums because I was bored with nothing new until I see this post! Awesome work is all I can say. Does this mean no more reboot restores with /system and complete control and customization of the device without the unlocked bootloader?
Haven't look at the code yet, but I believe if you change "ro.product.device" in "build.prop" you will loose all the sound.
Can someone test it?
Niiiiice! Thanks, been waiting on this.
Now, quick question: There is a stock ROM to flash, right? I just exchanged another HD & it was easy enough to just remove the SD card. I've only had this HD a week.
Thanks!
Oh yeah, I remember now: Yes, there is.

This is a ROM to replace the stock on emmc. You should back up your stock first. E.mote has an excellent tutorial that verygreen links in his OP here. Then you can restore that backup to get back to stock if you need to return it.
Edit: Guide is here. Just substitute the files from the OP instead of the ones listed in the guide:

I guess I wasn't clear in my question (too early). I just needed to know if there was a stock ROM to flash back to stock in case I had to return it. Of course, I could just Nandroid my stock install too (DUH, didn't think about that, just like you said).
Updating to latest ROM?
Folks,
I picked up a Nook HD+ 16Gb last night and followed the guide to install CM10.1. Everything went smoothly. A big THANK YOU to verygreen and lepinlar for all the work in creating this and the guides/instructions on how to install.
I've got a couple questions:
I installed the cm-10.1-20130608-UNOFFICIAL-ovation-emmc ROM and have made some changes on the tablet (added my daughters as Users, downloaded some apps, etc). How would I go about upgrading to the cm-10.1-20130612-UNOFFICIAL-hummingbird-emmc ROM? Would I lose the changes I've already made? Is there way to install/upgrade to the new ROM and keep the changes I've already made? Thanks.

First you do not want to flash that ROM to your HD+. If you look at the filenames you will see ovation (which means HD+) and hummingbird (which means HD). But if you want to upgrade to a newer ovation ROM, just flash the newer ROM over the top of your old ROM. It will keep all your changes you've made.

Lepinlar,
Sorry about the post. I didn't read it close enough to realize it was for the HD (not the HD+). Should I delete my original post so it doesn't confuse anyone else?

No, it might actually help others users who are confused by the issue. Leave it there as originally posted.

Awesome ROM, thanks for doing this. Battery life vs stock is amazing, UI looks much better, more customizable, great having root to back up apps and etc.
I had a small issue with the 06/08 build on my HD+ where the battery would not recharge. Power cycling (turning it off and then on again) seemed to fix it. Is anyone seeing this issue with this 06/12 build? Thanks!
