Nook Color….. Nootered
So I recently got the nook, mainly to use as a budget android tablet as it was only a matter of time it was going to be rooted or nootered. There have already been a few apps that came out that solves the problem with the nook only having one home button and the volume buttons. It is possible to remap the buttons, like the vol up and down to menu and back. But another way is to have an app overlay the the basic buttons on the screen when the home/n is pressed.
With this limitation solved the nook is an awesome android tablet. I have yet to read any books on it yet but I have been having too much fun making it do everything else.
For those that have a nook color I would highly recommend rooting your nook. It is really simple to achieve this, all you need to do is download 2 things, an image file and an image write.
You write the files to a microSD card and stick it in your nook and that is all about there is to do.
Once everything is finished all you need to do is format the microSD card in your nook or else your microSD card will have a bunch of weird partitions. Restore all the files you may have had on the microSD card and your done.
All the instructions can be found on xda-developers.com, as long as you follow the directions there should not be any problems.

Froyo(Android 2.2) on HTC Hero(CDMA)
So I dumped CyanogenMod6(CM6) for Nonsense aospMod and it works awesome, granted there isn't any flash support on the rom the speed of the rom is just fantastic. Being able to answer calls without the sense lag, angry birds plays with virtually no lag. Anyone looking for a good rom for their hero I would suggest the aospMod rom
