Hi guys,
I'm in trouble with my OP3T and would really appreciate your help here.
I dropped the phone to the ground and broke the screen and digitizer
I would like to cast the screen to my chromecast to recover my files and maybe later repurpose the phone as a media player through a displaylink adapter.
I have connected a USB keyboard and mouse and can interact with the phone.
Can someone guide me through the steps (keypresses) to enable the cast to my chromecast?

Just login into your One+ account , demand an RMA, follow the instructions and for around 120 euro you will be all good within 2 weeks with a fully functional phone.
Yeah sure I thought about that but I've been a fool and bought the phone on gearbest, hoping to save a little bit at that time...
As the phone was not bought on the oneplus website, it's a bit tricky for the warranty.
Furthermore, I wasn't aware that it was a model made for the Chinese market so the 4G reception has always been horrible here in Europe.
The local repair shops are asking 160€ or more to replace the screen, it's not worth it especially knowing about the non-existent 4G.
Ok I managed to cast another phone to my chromecast using only the usb keyboard/mouse... but I guess the menu structure is not the same on the OP3T as that doesn't work.
Here is what I have thus far:
- Unlock the phone with fingerprint
- Open the app panel with the mouse (move to the bottom of the screen then drag it up)
- Type "param" > this will filter the list, only the parameters app will remain
- Press TAB twice to highlight the parameters app
- Press ENTER
The next part is tricky but doable:
- Move the cursor at the top right of the screen
- Move the cursor slightly down and left and click on the search icon (you have to fish for it a little bit, but you can hear a "click" once you've succeeded)
- Type "cast"
- Press TAB
- Press ENTER (that brings you to the display menu)
- Go at the bottom (Press the down arrow until you stop hearing click sounds)
- Press ENTER to select the cast menu
- Press TAB to select the chromecast device (only one in my case)
- Press ENTER to start casting
I would be very grateful if someone could try on his OP3T and tell me what differs and what key sequence I should press :good:
Hi bronderb,
Yes stock rom (rooted).
Unlocked bootloader and TWRP if that matters.

If your version of TWRP has USB-OTG enabled, then you can boot into recovery and use your mouse to take a full backup.
TWRP also enables MTP and you can retrieve the backup to your laptop.

Except I can't really use the mouse to create a backup in TWRP as I don't see the screen :laugh:
I did recover some files with using ADB while in recovery mode, but I didn't manage to do a full backup.
And that won't help me in re-purposing the phone to play prime video and local media files through a displaylink adapter

For a full backup, you can create an openrecoveryscript which is recognized by TWRP and upon boot into recovery, TWRP will automatically make a backup as specified in the script and you can pull that over MTP.

It's cheaper than that. To be more precise it costs 88 EUR. Just sent mine last week
I still would like to reuse the phone as a media center.
If someone can guide me to enable chrome cast or setup a display link adapter without replacing the screen...

Installs su and Superuser.apk
Installs Busybox
Installs Button Savior
Installs Go Launcher
Installs NookColor Tools (To Enable Non-Market Installs)
Installs Gapps (Gmail, Market, Youtube, Others)
System Files that get Modified:
/system/build.prop - Enabling Google Check In
packages.xml - Allows Gapps to install properly.
framework.jar - Should allow a proper Android ID to generate.
Changes:
June 24, 2011 -
Removed: Multitouch Permission
Added: Modified framework.jar
June 22, 2011 - Fixed: Script not running at boot.
June 20, 2011 - Initial Release
Before you begin:
You must already have a registered Nook Simple Touch
You must have a Gmail/Youtube linked Account. IF you used a Gmail account for B&N Registration you should use that one for this process.
You must either have dd (Linux) or WinImage (Windows) software.
You must have an external microSDCard reader or this will not work. Do NOT use the Nook Simple Touch.
You must have enough intelligence to follow instructions.
Let's get started:
Download TouchNooter from here: touchnooter-1-6-24.zip
Linux: Unzip and use dd if=touchnooter-1-6-24.img of=/dev/sdcard
Windows: Unzip and use WinImage to "Restore Virtual Hard Disk Image" to your SDcard.
Windows Alternative: https://launchpad.net/win32-image-writer/+download
Power off your Nook Simple Touch.
Insert TouchNooter SDcard into your Nook Simple Touch.
Power on your Nook Simple Touch.
You should see the screen "Rooted Forever".
It will boot like normal and you should be asked to select a launcher now. (If not use Button Savior to go home. This will bring up the launcher chooser.)
That was the hard part, now to the simple stuff.
Upon boot unlock your screen.
At the Android Welcome Screen skip Sign In.
Enable Location Services when given the option.
Connect to Wifi and launch Youtube from Go Launcher's App Drawer (Or the App Drawer of your Choice).
Click the Menu button (The right one in the middle of the status bar).
Select "My Channel" and Login using your Gmail Account.
Exit Youtube and Launch Gmail from "Extras".
Sync your Gmail Account and Exit. (If it fails to sync that is fine.)
Open up Market and Accept Terms and Service.
If you made it this far your nook should be successfully Rooted. Go Download an App to make sure.
Enable Non-Market Installs by running the NookColor Tools App.
If your Youtube fails to launch Uninstall and Reinstall Youtube from /data/app
Go to Settings > Device Info > SdCard > UnMount > Format
Thanks To:
Arnold Snarb - modified framework.jar
nemith - helping me figure out getting it to run at boot.
JesusFreke - For getting root.
MrMuffin - For the original Market Hack that we're using.
Currently Working On: TouchNooter 1.11.x
I've probably screwed up, but perhaps not too badly. Tried to follow all the steps and got the system files copied to media, and then to replace the main system files, but there I got confused. I ended up rebooting without attempting to install the youtube app, which I didn't find in the download. Even now, a lot looks like it is working, but I can't even attempt to sign in to google cause I can't get a keyboard to come up to allow me to enter my user name and password. Is there any help for me, or am I a total dunce needing to start over? thanks!
EDIT: I see I am screwed -- no keyboard is coming up for me anywhere. I guess I can go through a major reset but if anyone has a suggestion to just get the keyboard back I will appreciate it.
EDIT2: Well I got past that, simply chose multitouch keyboard instead of Gingerbread in NookColor Tools.
EDIT3: But now I am stuck again as I can't sign in to a google account... says can't establish a reliable data connection to the server, even though my wifi is fine. But at least at the moment everything else is fine, though the keyboard isn't working very well (but it does work; lots of ghosting)
An .img file is being uploaded for TouchNooter 1.6.20 It'll do all the copy and edit stuff, the only thing it can't do is create an android ID.
In the "GappsAndMore" there was some keyboards which were from the NC it was just a raw pull from AN. This is more refined with things that could cause issues removed. (Like Keyboards, Framework.jars from the NC, etc.)

I'd suggest a wipe and running TouchNooter... GappsAndMore had Keyboards and stuff in it and removed the stock keyboard =\
is a wipe in the nook touch holding down the power for 20 seconds?
No you need to do a complete wipe by triggering recovery, but I don't know how to trigger recovery yet.
oh well the perils of early adoption. I'll follow the thread with anticipation!

You could try 8 failed boots. Basically you power it on and then power it off before it fully boots. Do that 8 times and it might trigger recovery.
Confirmed this works great. I'm going to find a fix for the calendar.

I did a reset of the device back to the out of the box experience, registered with my BN account, shut down and followed the directions to the letter. I had no luck at all. It just shows the Rooted Forever screen, then boots normally is if nothing happened.
Sorry Guys and Gals. Entirely my fault. It seems a combination of my own forgetfulness and bad scripting (I forgot proper codes and methods used in AN) caused this just to do nothing. I'm uploading a version as I'm typing this and will remove "BROKEN" from the title when it's up.
Still broken. init.rc isn't running it's script properly.
Script can be ran manually with:
Code:
adb shell sh /sdcard/nooter/tmp/scripts/Nooter
Will be working on getting it to trigger properly
*Note: By using this method you don't have to worry about re-imaging with someone else's nook rom and overwriting your mac address and serial # with someone else's.
There are two parts to the re-flash, you must do both in this order
1. Re-imaging the PROGRAM portion of the nook.
2. Re-imaging the data portion of the nook.
Part one: Re-image the Nook Touch /system partition
Your nook must already be properly rooted for this to work. Install adb on your PC if you don't have it already. Prep your nook by installing "adb wireless" from the app store and run the app. (if you don't know how to use adb, google it)
Run the "adb wireless" app on your nook and press the "big button" and take note of your nooks ip address.
We now can connect the nook through the adb shell and manually change the BootCnt file so that the boot count is 8. This avoids the pain of manually interrupting the boot process 8 times.
connect to your nook by typing "adb connect (nook ip)" from your pc
Once you have connected to your nook, use the following commands:
adb shell
echo -n -e "\x08\x00\x00\x00" > /rom/devconf/BootCnt
reboot
Thats it for part one. Your nook will reboot and start the re-imaging process. Let it finish and reboot again.
Part two: Re-imaging the data portion of the nook
1. Go to Settings
2. Select "Device Info" under the top "Device Settings" section
3. Select "Erase & Deregister Device"
4. Select the "Erase & Deregister Device" button
5. Select the "Reset Nook" button
A Deregistration message will appear and the nook will reboot.
Upon reset a Clearing data message will appear
This may take a few minutes. The nook will reboot again once complete.
Thats it! Smell that Fresh clean stock nook!
I must give credit to nookdevs dot com. They posted this process for unrooting the nook color. The process is exactly the same for the nook touch. I am a noob on this board so I can't post links yet. I have verified this process works. I had to unroot my nook to get the Shop to work again. Hope this helps. Good luck!
Is it normal for the nook to at the very end of the process bar ? What do I do ? Did I screw it ? I am afraid to try powering it off ?
Please edit your question. I don't understand what you are asking.
Thanks

If you rooted with TouchNooter than you shoud have the ADB packages installed. Using the ADB wireless makes things easier, however you can run ADB over usb. Just google "ADB over USB nook" and you will see the link for the nookdevs forum. It gives the instructions for windows, mac, and linux.
I would post the links, but I can't as of yet because I am a noob. One more post should get me to 8.

Oh yeah... I almost forgot...try this first... There is a known problem where you can't search in the android market. Just go to amazon and get the amazon android market instead. That is what I did.. and if all else falls...you can use the ADB over usb.

open up your browser on your nook and go to:

My Unroot Method
Maybe this will work for you all too. It worked really well for me (but this is assuming you don't have the 1.0.1 update):
1 - Turn nook off and turn on pushing power button than 2 bottom buttons.
2 - Press home twice to clear data
3 - Login as normal and then go to Settings and Erase and DeRegister your Nook
4 - When nook comes back up login and register nook as normal
5 - Download http://su.barnesandnoble.com/nook/n...Dpomf5qvKtTeXxjxcgaa2cS/nook_1_0_1_update.zip and put it on the root of your nook (not SD card)
6 - Let nook apply the update
7 - That should be it.
I deregistered it after that. Rebooted. Reset. Rebooted. Every time came up stock for me to register.

You can reset the phone to Factory settings.
1. Turn off your phone.
2. Press vol up+vol down+power buttons till it vibrates. Now you see a dead android.
3. Navigate with your volume buttons to "Recovery Mode" and select it with the power button.
4. When its booted you should see a soort of menu.
5. Select "wipe data" (or something like that). THIS WIPES YOUR DATA AND YOUR INTERNAL STORAGE (music, pictures etc..)
6. Select reboot system now.
7. Done.

In ADB or some other way to access the file system in Recovery Mode
navigate to /data/system and

You can use AROMA File Manager in Recovery (would have to sideload it if you didn't pre-install it)

How can I make this (run logcat)?
Thanks for the advices.
Im not sure the clear data/cache works right in CWM. I have not tested it. To access the menu in the stock recovery hit the Home key.
To output a logcat open a command prompt and run "adb logcat"
If you want to output it to a file use "adb logcat > filename.txt"
so there is some querrys:
- torch app does not work as a flashlight, while it stay in status bar and even task killer wont help
- led notification light does not work at all, i guess there is no app for that and original is missing
- it wont unlock sim card, or lock it while it's unlocked. message is "incorrect pin". previously unlocked on other phone sim works fine. pin correct.
- the reboot menu list wont operate with joystick, only touch.
- both cameras wont work in skype, when forced induce crash.
- dev tools options become a force close
- voice dialer started by long press call button opens in wrong screen orientation and does not work. it work if started from all apps.
- superuser does not ask about allowing su permissions, there is no app listed as allowed su perm. while all super su apps works fine as usual.
- yandex maps app issue. rendering map result is quite not what it should be
I did it! Thanks for stock recovery main key (Home) .
And now some my notes (first, I use Russian language and CM7 has it).
- torch app doesn't work - this right for me too;
- about led - not work too;
- about sim - not check this yet;
- the reboot menu OPERATE for me with D-Pad;
- I don't use Skype;
- dev tools work in full for me;
- all correct about voice dialer;
- it's right too;
- don't install yandex maps yet.

Any updates?
edit- specifically, does CM7 fix the poor bluetooth A2DP quality of the stock ROM?

Great NEWS
I've been bricked for few day now.
While searching the web I found this OUYA forum post and thought it might work on th FTV too.
http://forums.ouya.tv/discussion/1380/recovery-mode
I just had to try. IT WORKED!
1 - Plug in a USB keyboard. May have to be wired.
2 - While booting - Press Alt+PrintScreen/SysRq+I
3 - Repeat 1-3 times. You should get to Update screen.
4 - Press the HOME button on the keyboard.
5 - YOU HAVE RECOVERY MODE!
I selected Factory Reset.
It took a little longer to boot. Prompted for missing remote & press Home.
Signing in NOW!
Will add pictures doon.

Update:
I rebooted to see if I could get into recovery again.
I got back on the update screen but the Home button wouldn't put me in recovery mode this time. The KB seemed dead.
I was using the keyboard connected through a hub this time. Would that matter? IDK
Could not reboot with Ctrl-Alt-Del
Pulled the power plug & replugged and it booted fine.
Hey, dude, thats amazing!
Did you tried another options?
It's possible with mac keyboard, may be alternative combination exists.
There's not printscreen button on keyboard.
Great Find! :good:
EDIT: I just got to recovery by doing this:
1- boot up normally
2- adb shell
3- su
4- reboot recovery
5- at update failed screen press home
6- PROFIT??

Thanks -
No, on the other options.
I thought for sure the factory reset would let me boot my FTV again - and it did.
I don't k know about mac KBds

I'm sure your way is the preferred way.
It feels good to be able to boot up normally again.
Glad you got back to working condition

This is nothing new (using adb to reboot into recovery). But it's not useful when you brick the OS and there is no ADB.
The OP found the way into the recovery w/o an OS, which is pretty key to unbrick your firetv, as long as you have a working recovery partition. Now we can also do complete flashes via update from adb (which probably allows sideloading the OTA packages).

Can someone give precise instructions to navigate the "update screen menu" blind? On my TV, the menu is completely cropped out. I don't even know if it's appearing when I press Home.
Does the menu come up instantly when you press Home on the Update Failed Screen?
Is it okay to press Home several times, or does that make the menu go away/toggle?
When you press Home, is the first menu item already selected or do you need to press down once to highlight the first menu item?
To get to the factory reset options do you press: Home > Down > Down > Enter?
Also, has anyone tried the "update from ADB" option? Does this enable ADB? Is it ADB over wifi or usb only? I ask mainly because factory reseting doesn't help those with a "host file softbrick" (where a modified host file is blocking initial registration). Those people need a way to get to the host file, which factory reseting doesn't touch.

On the Fire TV, do you navigate the recovery menu with the keyboard up/down arrows?

Stock recovery does not work with ADB over USB. And it doesn't have ethernet or wifi drivers. So "update from ADB", which is sideload, will not work on stock recovery.

You can use the keyboard arrows, but the keyboard must be plugged in before recovery starts.

I thought alwaysbless was host softbricked, actually.
Maybe the factory reset in recovery is more thorough than the one coming from the gui?
