CM9 / Ice Cream Sandwich For Nook Color [Download]
Here’s what the developers have gotten working so far:
- Bluetooth.
- Wi-Fi (full it seems but it’s brand-new to the kernel so who knows how stable anything is).
- Backlight.
- Accelerometer.
- improved stability (but not perfect)
- Google Apps.
- SetCPU / overclock.
- Real data usage info (not stubbed out).
- Battery levels / charging.
- Physical menu button.
- Touchscreen.
- 3D games.
- USB gadget in kernel (i.e, mounting your SD card to your computer).
- Screenshots.
- Build system (to auto-create upgrade.zips).
Sound, video, full 2D acceleration and possibly much more is not working right now. Again, the ROM is a work in a progress and not meant for playing around by novice users.
