Download, Install HoneyComb ROM on Nook Color

Android Honeycomb made it to the popular ebook reader Nook Color, and within a week of the hack, its now available to general public, even before Android Honeycomb has been released to public.

Now here is good news for those Nook color owner eagerly waiting for instructions & honeycomb image file for Nook Color.

The complete Honeycomb Android 3.0 image file along with instructions on how to flash on Nook Color is available at XDA forum.

What works:
-Graphics acceleration
-Accelerometer
-Wireless!
-Touchscreen
-Buttons
-Sleep/Wakeup stuff

Doesn’t work:
-Sound (sadly! Despite my efforts the last hours I didn’t get it working properly yet)
-DSP e.g. no hardware video decoding

The whole thing is based on the honeycomb emulator images, the B&N V1.1 kernel+modules+driver, pieces from the upcoming CM7 and manual patching ARM assembler in libraries and writing ugly scripts to hack around various issues.

Use this on your own risk! I’m not responsible for any damages!

The unzipped image is around 4gb. I recommend using it on a 8gb sd-card. In principle the image should work on a 4gb card.
