Ok. I have put up this thread because I need help with the ROM, I am making.
I posted on other threads to get my answers but all i'm getting is irrelevant information.
I need real help and on topic answers.
I am creating a ROM through Dsixda Kitchen
This is what I've tried so Far
1) After doing all mods, I try to build ROM from working folder.
2) Go to Interactive Mod, convert the update-script to updater script. Sign the ROM.
3) And try to flash it through CWM after wiping data and cache.
4) But i get Error, Status 7. Mount expects 4 args got 3.
I tried getting emmc-update binary and renaming it to update-binary and replace it with Meta-inf\com\google\android\update-binary.
After trying to flash again it gets through cwm but stays stuck at the splash screen.
I tried something else.
1) Don't convert the updater-script to update script at the start.
2) Do mods, and build rom
3) Flash with CWM. No errors.
4) Stuck at splash screen.
Can someone please help me? What am i doing wrong. I know how to mod system, and the apks but no knowledge about Meta-INF. So, i'm a total noob at updater script, update-binary and so on.
I tried something again. Without changing base rom alot. I just changed boot animation. And I get Error Status 7 in CWM.
Please Help. Quick.
Use the update script from some other rom!!
Don't be a noob. Be a newbie..!!
Details here.

I used it succesfully, but now I have a new problem. I flashed it wiping everything but now it's stuck at the Android Logo Screen.

I didn't complete it thoroughly. I wanted to test it when I was halfway done. Anyways:
EDIT: Simplified.
1) Changed Kernel
2) Modded Framework-res.apk and SystemUI.apk
2) Changed Boot Animation
3) Updated Apps
4) Added Tweaks
5) Modified Some Apps
7) Changed System Sounds
11) Added Extra Apps.
14) Tweaked init.d
15) Build.prop tweaked
16) Modded Lockscreen
I'm sure that's it if i haven't forgotten something.
Version for no-BN account devices in post #5
This version of the app is for fully registered devices.
5-14-22: Updated to v1.5. Uninstall any previous version to insure all variables clear.
--removed Google accounts section
--removed Network Location setting (relied on Google accounts).
Over the years a few new "Settings" apps have been cobbled together from the ruins of what B&N left on the device. Starting with the original listing by @Renate NST which revealed the scope of what was hidden on the NST/G, people have rejiggered the app in a number of ways. Each of those attempts relied on actually changing the app or the framework and had limitations as to the type of installation they would run on and things that needed to be added, deleted, disabled, etc.
The Nook Settings app is my effort to create a utility that would encompass all the good ideas and none of the less good. But as I am no Java programmer, that meant Tasker (surprise). The result is a frankenapp, using screens from the B&N Settings app (you can't delete it!) as well as completely original pages I assembled from screen images and many, many invisible overlays to hijack the Back button and the return arrow throughout the app. My goal was to eliminate anything that did not work (USB debugging in the Development section, for example), try to fix what I could (USB debugging, for example!), and add in features that just should be there, mundane things like wallpaper and keyboard changes. I also wanted to re-organize the app in a more traditional way. A few representative screenshots below.
Disclaimers
1. Transitions are sometimes a little scrappy. It all depends on what the device is doing in the background and how difficult the item is to access.
2. Rather than introduce a lot of forking with many permutations, I elected to only separate the NST from the NSTG at first run. As far as accounts go, I included everything from B&N: Shop, Social). There is error trapping, so there should be no issues.
3. My number one goal in herding all these electric sheep was to keep what happens in the Settings app within the Settings app. This proved to be impossible in a few cases (keyboard swap is one) because of the way the native Android system was handling the main window. Those cases are clearly indicated in the app menus as "Exits Settings".
4. This app cannot be totally localized. That is, if you have a different display language (say, German), the parts of the app that are actually parts of the B&N Settings app will be localized, i.e., the phrases will be changed to the language you have selected. However, the custom pages I created are just images with invisible touch overlays so.... If anyone is seriously interested in localizing the app for themselves, they should contact me and we can discuss creating a custom set of images which I will then compile into a custom app.
5. I'm sorry to say that the App Manager was one of most difficult nuts to crack. It is part of the B&N Settings app but has an activity that cannot be opened via shell commands. Somehow ADW Launcher does it, but I was never able to come up with a method. Luckily, Tasker has a generic call to the App Manager and it actually works. Still, it is sluggish on the Back arrow where it must be tested against which screen is being displayed. Just not a happy camper. Be sure not to tap the Back arrow more than once or you'll end up who knows where. Consider it a free lesson in patience
6. This app is only for Portrait orientation. Oh, you can rotate your screen, but all the touch coordinates will be off and images distorted. This is not a priority for me, but I may look at it someday. It requires a redesign and right now, I'm sorta sick of working on this :silly:
Requirements
1. This is a Tasker app and has a dependency on two library files which are part of a GApps installation. If you don't have GApps or one of my other Tasker apps already, you need to copy the two files in the zip as below:
/system/etc/permissions/com.google.android.maps.xml
/system/framework/com.google.android.maps.jar
Set permissions for both files to rw-r--r-- and reboot. Without these files resident, the app will not install.
2. Root/SU. Right off the bat. Many, many shell commands, settings.db, accounts.db, etc. manipulations.
3. Sqlite3 (for the database manipulations), provided in the zip below. If you don't already have it, move the file to /system/bin and set the permissions to rwx r-x r-x.
4. Busybox. If you rooted with NookManager, you already have Busybox installed. A few other special packages probably include it. If you have it, you will find it in /system/xbin. If it's not there, copy the file from the zip to that location and set permissions to rwx-rwx-rwx
5. The original B&N Settings app installed
Edit: 6. I've discovered while working on a no-B&N variant that a kernal enabling multi-touch is needed for some of the "sendevent" sequences to execute. Lacking multi-touch does not mean the app will not function or that you will not be able to access some settings.
Installation
The easy part. This is not a system app, but a user app. Just install as normal. You don't have to disable or remove or change anything. If you don't like it, just uninstall.
On first run the app:
1. determines if you have an NSTG and adjusts the menus accordingly.
2. sets ADB debugging via TCP (for WiFi apps like ADB Konnect); This is the default state for rooting with NookManager. You can change to USB in Developer options.
Just to be clear, in every case in which there is a "return" arrow as part of a Settings screen, its function is identical to the Back button in the status bar (i.e., both have been hijacked).
Problems
If you have some issue and end up crashing the app or exiting unexpectedly (has not happened to me, but.....), there may still be invisible overlays present that will impair the function of your device. The easiest way to deal with these is to repeatedly press the Back button until the main Settings menu appears and then disappears. If there is still an issue, force stopping the app via the App Manager will clear all overlays. A power cycle is the last resort.
Acknowledgement
Wow, this was tough... I'm indebted to the generous folk who hang out at the Google Tasker group. I'm sure they all think I'm daft spending so much time on an Eclair device with an ancient version of Tasker, but they have nonetheless been helpful when I've been stuck.
Wow, @nmyshkin that looks like a bit of work.
On a different theme, I have an Android (Linux) executable for doing settings.
It's handy if you want to set a bunch of devices all the same (and you have root).
Settings are stored in different tables for global, system and secure.
Even worse, individual setting moved among these three categories for different versions of Android.
Even worse, they used to be stored in an SQLite database, then they moved to separate XML files.
Fortunately, if there is a setting "klaatu_barada_nikto" it is unique even though it might be in system or secure depending on Android version.
The executable takes an input file of settings.
Here is an example (just what I had at hand, I'm not saying that these settings are the right one for you (or even me)).
Code:
adb_enabled 1
airplane_mode_on 0
auto_time_zone 0
bluetooth_on 0
development_settings_enabled 1
dim_screen 0
heads_up_notification_enabled 0
immersive_mode_confirmations confirmed
install_non_market_apps 0
lockscreen.disabled 1
mock_location 1
package_verifier_enable 0
screen_auto_brightness_adj -1
screen_brightness 5
screen_brightness_mode 0
screen_off_timeout 1800000
skip_first_use_hints 1
stay_on_while_plugged_in 3
transition_animation_scale 1.0
usb_mass_storage_enabled 0
user_setup_complete 1
verifier_verify_adb_installs 0
window_animation_scale 1.0
wifi_frequency_band 0
If the setting exists, it will be set.
Notice, that you don't have to specify category (global, system, secure) since it can figure that out itself.
(No, I didn't attach the executable. I have to double check it.)

Yeah, this is another example of why humans are not allowed to know the future. If they did, they would shy away from attempting many things!
I'd be interested in the executable. From my work on this app I can imagine what it must involve to ferret out the appropriate entries. On the NST, at least, values in settings.db for some things appear to be artifacts only and don't actually seem to have any effect. It just made things more interesting...
nmyshkin said:

Well, here it is (in the signature).
Park "setvalues" in an executable directory (like /data or /data/local/tmp), chmod 755 it.
It takes the name of the values file as the only argument.
It's verbose in telling you what was and any changes done.
This also should run on any version of Android and any device.
Custom version for those without B&N account and/or apps
5-11-22: updated to 1.5. Uninstall any previous version to insure all variables clear.
--removed Google Accounts section
--removed Network Location setting (relied on Google Accounts)
This version is only for devices which either bypassed OOBE and then removed all B&N stuff or went through registration and then removed all B&N stuff
I've been playing around with a third (my last one, I swear) device and have finally hit upon the method for removing B&N apps without causing a constant drumbeat of protest in the system. More on that in a future post.
No B&N apps means no B&N account, whether you start with a registered device or skip OOBE, so my Nook Settings app had a lot of fluff in it for such devices. Also, the "About" stuff did not work so there was no information such as serial number, MAC address, etc.
This special version of the app addresses these issues. References to B&N stuff are removed and there is a custom "About" section which includes an editing option for those items the app could not dig up on its own (like your name, if you didn't register). See screenshot below.
Hint: if you skip OOBE, you will need to jot down the serial number, model number, and MAC address for entry into the "About" page. You can find these values on the screen where you elect to skip OOBE. Failing that, they are contained in text files in /rom/devconf
The zip below includes all the stuff from the zip in the OP with an updated custom app. Follow the installation instructions in post #1. If you are updating, you only need to uninstall the previous version and install the new one.
Great job!
The app dosen't install on my rooted NST fw ver.1.2.1 but at least I removed all unnecessary B&N apps. Thanks

It should install and run on 1.2.1 without any problems. Did you remember to copy the two maps files? It won't install without those present. Also be sure the permissions for each file are set correctly. If not the installer may register them as MIA and refuse to run.
I'm not sure if the same level of dependency is present at installation for sqlite or busybox, but you do need both (with correct permissions) for some parts of the app to function.
Edit: I can confirm that the app installs and runs with FW 1.2.1, following the directions in the first post.
Hey, I find myself unable to put the com.google.android.maps.jar and com.google.android.maps.xml files in the required locations via ADB push due to the filesystem being readonly, and I'm not sure the safest way to remount readwrite on this device, please could you advise?

Did you choose one of the NookManager options with ES File Explorer? If so, you can mount /system as RW from within its Settings and just transfer the files to either your sdcard or /media (the "Nook" drive) and then move them with the file manager from there. You can even set the permissions (long-press on file and select "Properties").
Otherwise...hmm....let me see if I have that bookmarked...
Code:
adb shell mount -o rw,remount -t ext2 /dev/block/mmcblk0p5 /system
I think that's it. Then for permissions:
Code:
adb shell chmod 644 /system/wherever/whatever.xml
(I'm not suggesting it's 644--you'll have to check that.
ES File Explorer is by far the easier method.

I went for the classic so no ES here! Just ReLaunchX. The mount command worked, and I can confirm 644 is the correct numeric for the required permissions. Busybox already existed from the root, and I installed sqlite3 with correct permissions, 755.
Copied those 2 google files over, set permissions, rebooted then installed the APK fine.
Sorry for being such a noob here, but how do I now run the app as superuser? Running it without just refreshes the screen (I assume that means it crashed after trying to open?)
Opening the Superuser app shows no apps in list.

Sometimes SU is slow to respond. I'd reboot and try again.
No luck waiting or rebooting unfortunately. Superuser has no app list and the screen refresh flashes when trying to launch still

Ok, I've shut down my PC for the day. Let me try a clean install of the app tomorrow and refresh my memory on exactly what happens. SU can really be a pain on this device sometimes.

So instead of reading till I get drowsy I have downloaded the zip right on the device! I uninstalled the app and checked Superuser to be sure any entries were gone. Then I extracted the app from the zip and installed it. The moment (or nearly) I tapped the app icon I got the Superuser permission request.
I'm baffled.

Well...
I opened ADB connect, as I knew that asked for super user too. It did, I accepted and it launched fine. I went back to ReLaunchX and decided to look at Superuser now. It won't open at all.
Okay, fine, I'll reboot the device.
Nope, still won't open.
So I decided to open ADB Connect again. Well now that's broken too! It gives me a black screen, so I decided to tap back. Nope. Okay, I'm stuck now.
After a few seconds I get "Sorry! Activity ReLaunchX (in application ReLaunchX) is not responding. [Wait] [Force Close]
I have since forced closed, uninstalled the settings app and rebooted. Superuser still broken. ADB works once and then subsequent times black screens me.
Edit: Got a logcat of superuser:

Most disturbing, as Jeeves would say.
Here's where my lack of depth shows. I can see there is trouble in the logcat. The word "CRASH" being a clue. But as to the rest..not so much.
I would, at this point, uninstall and reinstall SU--you can get the apk from your NookManager card.
I've got a fairly busy day but my aim is to back up one of my devices, revert it to an unrooted, registered state, root with the "classic" package and try to reproduce your situation. That's one step short of converting to UK and going through the entire process. Which I hope not to do.

The reinstall has certainly fixed Superuser, however, no luck with NookSettings still even after another reinstall. I feel reverting to UK on your device wouldn't particularly help you, however going from stock to rooted might. I am wondering at this point if that might do me any good.
It clearly shows a lack of resilience of Superuser although the instigation lies elsewhere.
There is absolutely no reason that an app should bomb doing a layout.
Personally, I've never liked su. All I need in life (before the advent of system as root) is a rooted adbd.

I have just found a new APK for Superuser, 3.0.7 which I have attached in both the unextracted ZIP form and the extracted APK form. Source is https://forum.xda-developers.com/t/app-superuser-2-3-6-1-now-on-the-market-2010-09-05.682828/page-49
Not sure it will be of much help, but it certainly works with ADB Konnect perfectly fine.
Still no luck with NookSettings. I decided to logcat that too, here it is:

I have tried other SU apps in the past but they were always complaining about updating binaries (not going to happen). But if you have something that works, good.
That logcat seems to point to the two maps files that are expected by Tasker or any of its kid apps (like Nook Settings). So much stuff about maps, like it can't find what it wants. I've never seen anything like that on my devices (not that I sit around watching logcats scroll by all day). Check that both files are in the proper places. The jar file belongs in /system/framework and is rw-r-r (or 644, as you said). The xml file is in /system/etc/permissions and is also rw-r-r.
In short, if the old SU popped up with ADB Konnect, it's probably not the problem. The Nook Settings app itself is not the problem. I have it running on three devices and the fresh install last night went without a hitch. I've tested it on both FW 1.2.1 and 1.2.2.
Getting one of my Nooks ready for a backup now.
