Google map and Nook - Nook Color General

Why does Google Map sucks soo much on the nook? It constantly FC's and hangs on my Nook running CM9. I'm also dual booting CM7 on SDcard, it doesn't suck so much, but occasionally still hangs/FC.
I have the latest Google Map v. 6.1.1.
I'm guessing the lack of onboard GPS on the Nook has something to do with all the FC's. But I tether via TetherGPS, and it still FC sometimes. Waze seems to works fine on CM7 but FC on CM9.
Anyone can recommend a working navigation solution with CM9 Nook?

I'm not on cm9 but I use Sygic app for navigation on my cm7 nc using bt gps receiver. Try out, if it works plz tell me I plan to go to cm9 soon.

New version requires 2d acceleration.

FWIW Google Maps and Google Earth work just fine for me. I would not be surprised if a lot of things are not working correctly in CM9 on a NC yet. CM9 is very early.

Update: Google Maps now works smoothly for me on CM9. I updated to latest nightly (1/28), OC with Antutu CPU master, set gov to InteractiveX, and updated to Maps v6.2.0.
Not sure which one of those made it worked. I'm very pleased. Now to mount this bad boy in the car. 7" touch screen Nav! Muhaha

3d home run battle

I keep getting the error "information about your device cannot be retrieved due to unstable platform ". Then I have to hit the forceclose button. The thing is that I can see thegame running fine in the background. I don't understand this.

**edit** it also says "(According to your device, you may need to restart the application multiple.)"
What the hell is the Application Multiple??????
Hopefully someone will figure out a way to get this to work on the g tablet. It plays fine on my rooted nook color.
It even plays great on my lil Aria

Just to add to the list of confusion, another game, Live Hold'em Pro does a similar thing. It loads up, the splash scrreens work fine, but as the main screen of the game is about to comeup, I get the force close window. The funny part is how I see the game working in the background!

Homerun 3D was working perfectly before I repartitioned my drive. I have the same problem with it not working now and other games like Reckless Racing don't work either. Both worked perfectly before the repartition (2048/0)....any ideas?

See, Reckless racing has always worked, yet 3d home run has never worked

Yeah it really bites...but wait til the guys here get a hold of it, they'll make it work!
Don't mean to bump an old thread but wanted to know if a solution was found
Works fine for me on calkulins Tom. I want to say that is one of the apps I restored via titanium from my Droid backup though
Cant get it to work on BC
Works fine for me on Vegan GE 7.0.0 Stable RC1.
This is just a guess, but it may have something to do with HR3D trying to get some kind of device information from build.prop on what platform it is running on.
As more background info, I had this app working fine on Vegan 7 GingerEdition, and it works fine on VeganTab 5.1.1 Froyo.
I loaded AOSP Ginger with HC elements...modified build.prop with Sprint info to get some more market apps, and then restored HR3D and I've had this same message ever since...
I just haven't had time to play around with it quite yet, but I'm guessing that replacing the build.prop might get this thing working...
I would love to be able to play vs mode with my gtablet. I am running deck's 2.3.4 for gtablet. the game runs fine just no vs mode. Someone has to know how to get it to work.

Best/most stable OS for emmc

I was just wondering what people have tried and are currently running on their nook. I tried froyo and honeycomb but still keep going back to the rooted 1.1 because as much as I would love to run HC right now everything I need is still not working so I would like to hear comments from other users in case I just didn't know or use a work around. What I need out of my nook on a day-to-day basis:
- read books (stock nook reader is great but open to suggestions if using another OS)
- market (can't get this to work all the time on all the different flavors I try)
- comic book reader
- watching movies (this is not a must have but would be nice)
- screen stability (not sure if it is just me or a problem with my nook but I've ran into issues with ghost typing, meaning stuff will get pressed on its own and gets very annoying)
Thanks in advance! And keep up the great work!
Just using the honeycomb v4 release, with the 1.1Ghz overclock. Too much fun to play around with to go back to Froyo or BN 1.1
I did install HC v4 on emmc and liked it but do you have everything working on it?

I just flashed phiremod's rom and the 1100 Froyo kernel. Works great, flash player works for viewing web videos, copy and paste function works well, reading books with the B and N app is actually tolerable. It syncs with your account. No market issues. It is overall very stable.
Most stable on emmc? Rooted stock.
Currently rooted stock, though hopefully CM7 will be updated to remedy the problem of eclair being the most stable (its a problem I like new things)
Phiremod beta 2 is running great on mine.

Phiremod beta works fine for me. (except a non working youtube.) I use a 1 ghz kernel and "go launcher ex". It looks fantastic, the speed is fine and its stable.

[Q] [Google I/O] Music Beta not working on MT3G

The new Music Beta by Google app was leaked a few weeks ago, but it was a little buggy for me, so I was going to wait until the official release. well, it's out now, but it's not visible on my phone's market. It's visible on the web market, but my device is not listed as compatible. Requirements list froyo and up as a requirement, but nothing really else. Do you think that they're phasing out older devices again or could this just be a hiccup on the first day release?
Running
MyTouch 3G 1.2
w/ COS-DS 05062011 (2.3.4)
you could try installing it manually...

It still doesn't work in landscape mode for me, but thank you for the link. It will play music and I guess I'll find out later if it will sync music. After further research, I don't think that the Magic/MyTouch line is supported by this app because of OpenGL 2.0 being needed. I may be off though.
I installed the standalone apk and it installed and works just fine for me on my HeroC. Considering that the Hero and the MT3G are almost the same phones they should work fine.
Well, they're not exactly the same and there must be a reason it doesn't show up on the market. I get a FC every time I go landscape. I know it's not important, but I just want the album coverflow to work.
I can now confirm that music sync works just fine, but I want to know why it's not working with this model.

[Q] Accelerometer working in CM9?

I'm using CM9 nightly build & have noticed that although screen rotation works fine, I cannot use any games that depend on the accelerometer for steering etc. Is this a known problem with CM9 and is there a fix?
HI,
I also was wondering, I was trying to play wario ware twisted on my emulator which uses accelerometer but it didn't work?

Do your other accelerometer apps and functions work? Autorotate or other games? Mine works.
I'm using cm9 nightly too and it works for me. I think u have the version without acc and mic fix.

[Q] [Nook HD] Netflix performance on stock and CM10.1 - audio sync issues?

Greetings. Quick question. Does anyone else have audio sync issues using Netflix on CM10.1? Or can anyone running stock confirm whether Netflix is ok on stock or has the same problem? My audio runs behind the video by a second or so which is incredibly annoying. I tried different streaming settings but none improved it.
I am running Netflix 2.3.2 build 932 on verygreen 10.1 native EMMC
Thanks!
Chris
No replies so I just reflashed with the stock ROM and Netflix works perfectly - no audio sync problems like there are on CM10.1
Netflix works perfectly for both stock 1.2 and CM 10.1 for me. I notice Stock lags when I press the n button and CM 10.1 lags on subtitles. So I guess both have problems

I tried it today and mine seems to work just fine. I am using CM10.1-20130628 and Netflix version 2.3.2 build 932.
I also have the sound lag on Netflix. I'm using cm-10.1-20130706 and Netflix 2.3.2 build 932.

I have the same 10.1 & Netflix version 2.3.2 and Netflix goes to a grey screen with nothing shown except the Nook controls. I eventually get a Netflix isn't responding Do you want to close prompt. If I wait it does nothing.
Update: I installed 1.8.1 of Netfix and it works, then tried to update to 2.3.2. It loads run as far as letting me select program I want to watch, but when it runs the program the screen is chopped into 3 pieces with various parts displayed incorrectly. Went back to 1.8.1 but when played it will play for a period then stop and show buffering, then startup again. CM7 didn't have this problem.
FIX HERE
Problem persists but I have finally found a fix!
Install the following Xposed HACK and it will trick Netflix into thinking you are running Android 4.0 and this fixes the audio sync / lip sync / audio delay problems that I have experienced on the Nook HD with Cyanogenmod 10.1.

Note I have only tried this on a Nook HD using CM 10.1.3 stable. I have no idea whether it works or not on HD+ or other ROMs.
