[Q] To the Software Eng. and hackers - Nook Color General

The process of placing programs on the NC is evident, yet there is still no two way communication or at least none that i have found. Please, if anyone can inform me on how to remove apk's and install the android market app so we don't have to look for programs and just download them, show me the way.

Trust me - everyone would like to see this happen, and there are several people actively trying to get the Market to work on the NC. The development forum has a thread about it if you want to follow along more closely.
As for uninstalling apps, you can use Astro, or if you have an alternate launcher installed (ADW/LauncherPro/Zeam), you can drag the shortcut to the trash can and hold until it gives you an uninstall option.

Hay thanks for the quick tips.

I second this, too many 1$ apps i'll never use again. itd be nice to clean things up a bit in the my downloads section
i got alot of the ahome themes before i found this site and will never use them again...
When you have a list of applications, press menu, and choose "change view" and check the "Free items only"
Add that to the running list of improvements to the Market... Ability to organize downloads into categories (including archive).

Application Missing

I've done a bit of searching on this, but, the terms are too generic and I can't narrow it down enough, so, i'm sorry if this has been answered before.
So, I'm an avid gamer, love the emulators for Android. Long story short, there is an app that will allow me to use my bluetooth controller with Android. This app has been used and downloaded by a number of different people, but, when I try to install, the app never appears in my drawer. It shows as installed in settings/applications, but thats it.
I've installed it via the market, and ADB, even rebooting after both installs. Running SuperD 1.11, this also occurred under Cyanogens new 2.1 ROM.
Contact the developer...
this application may not open on its own...you may have to open the emulator to see the affects of this app...i cant be sure as you didnt give enough info to properly diagnose. a name for the app might be nice. if the app shows up in your downloads in the market, then try clicking the "View developer's Website" link in the details page, if there is none then try sending an email to the developer to ask how to use the app.

Little help please...

I did use the search function, so let me get that out of the way.
I'm trying to find the apk for Citizen Sports app, Live Scores. I loved Sportacular on the iPhone, and was overjoyed when I found out they had an Android app as well. My problem is this, Android Market, QR codes, cnet downloads, I can't seem to find the file to put this little gem on my MyTouch. I had it once before, but since I've rooted it, I can't find it anywhere!
If someone can direct me to where I can download it (it's a free app), or possibly post an attachment, so long as it doesn't break any of XDA's rules, please help! I want my sports fix back!
Thanks ahead of time!
found live scores in the market place, its what you have described and is published by citizen sports
I understand the app exists, I've even had it installed on the phone once before. My problem is, I've rooted it since then, and now, as a result, I am no longer able to locate it (app market, online sources, etc.). I'm just asking if anyone has a means to point me towards the .apk file, so I can install if from my sd card, or on the device's browser.

not sure why you cannot see the app, i can see it, i downloaded it and installed it also.
i guess i can extract it from my phone and save the apk for you, PM me and i'll zip and email it to you.
I have been searching all over for this application. I use a Moto Milestone on the AT&T network and since it is not a "standard" phone I can not see this in the market. If anyone can help me out I would really appreciate it.
-Thanks

[Q] Have a few question...

And searching for them here brings up all kinds of posts that just... blow my mind.
Background:
I rooted my NC a couple days ago using Autonooter 3.0 for 1.1
My questions are:
1. Is there much of a difference between this and Honeycomb? I mean i'm aware of visual differences but does one run better or have any advantages?
2. What are all the different variations on the developer page? Not clockwork recovery but if you click over the entire first page is just a long list of different versions/different ways to root. Any of those better than the other? Or is it just 20 different ways of accomplishing the same thing.
3. Do any of those versions support web video? I know I now have a youtube app but I still can't watch videos on any other sites.
4. Why don't all apps show up in the marketplace? Is there a workaround for this? For example the first time I rooted from 1.0.1 I could access Angry Birds. Now the only one that shows up is the seasonal one...
5. If I go ahead and install the newest version of Froyo (6.6) will I have access to the Market from the start or am I going to have to go into command line and all that other stuff? I'm comfortable with the flashing and installing but as soon as you get into that I might as well be reading Russian...
I know I have more questions but I can't think of them currently. Any and all help is much appreciated.

I won't be too helpful here but since you have no replies yet...
1. Honeycomb is more functional for tablet devices, it has the notification bar on the bottom with back and menu buttons by default, it has multipane apps and new widgets and other new functions.
2. I am not sure what you are talking about here.
3. Froyo and newer support web video via flash player 10. If you can get it installed, some people have difficulties.
4. It has to do with your device ID. Google for some reason can block apps that they don't think you need on your particular device. It's good for somethings because you don't want to see GPS centric apps on a device with no GPS but it blocks lots of useful apps too. There is a way to fix it by tricking the market into thinking you have a phone like DROID. Not sure why devs don't do it thought.
5. Rom makers aren't putting the market into their roms. Google has a problem with it and has sent Cease and Desist letters to people who do it. You can install the market afterwards.

Amazing apps

I have found some really amazing apps for android and thought i should share if anyone else might need or want them.
8pen: The keyboard has been reinvented for mobile devices. Was intended for phones but works great on my tablet. going to be using this as my main keyboard.
freenote: I was looking for a note taking program that can be used for classes. college level physics mostly. so i needed something i can write/type words on as well as put in a far bit of diagrams or equations. This one was the only one i found that did it all at a bang up job to. the controls may be a bit confusing but can have multiple groups of notes per class. save it and back it up (to restore a backup i only know of copying the back up folder into the main folder).
Win-Remote and URemoteDesktop: both of these are great computer control programs. win-remote only works with windows, URemoteDesktop works with both windows and linux. can make win-remote hidden in the taskbar and start with computer to have some fun with someone. (i have played joke on my bro and everyone was laughing was great). URemoteDesktop shows up in the terminal as a java process so its even more hidden. batch file and shell can run without constantly being on screen.
Font Changer (Root): is a nice simple font changer program. there are others i personally found this to work the best and be easiest to use. can be used with any launcher, also changes fonts in web browser, many apps... basically everything unless the app says otherwise.
AccuWeather: i have found this to be the most amazing weather app. has nice clean non clutter widgets that link to the app as well as show information. the app it self is basically a whole weather channel in your hands. even shows radar and 15day forecast. also very nice eye candy. it also tells you more about the day then just sun or rain. there is a lifestyle forecast section that tells you risk of asthma, cold, flu, mosquito risks, migraine risk and much more, even a dog walking forecast. lol
that's what i found. if there's an app that makes you go WOW please share cause i would love to know of more.
FreeNote looks like exactly what I've been looking for for taking notes in my engineering classes. Tried a few last semester and they just didn't work out very well. I tried replicating a few things and looks like it works very well and is easy to switch between modes (typing, hand writing, drawing).
I searched for about an hour tonight and finally found my perfect math handwriting note taking app = handrite!

Sounds like you're facing a bug. On your gtablet you can download the apps from the market. If you're having trouble, remove your gmail account, reboot, and readd your gmail account to your tablet. This should fix things!
FreeNote FTW!
Wow... I just wish I had FreeNote when I was taking classes. Thanks for posting this OP!
Nice apps. FreeNote is very nice. The kool apps keeps coming and coming...Thanks.
