[Q] Cyanogen Mod?

What would happen if I followed the steps on the NCWiki on installing Cyanogen mod7 with stock autonooted NC?
Should O first unroot this and try installing it?
And will I be able to keep my NC books I bought?
Also: why does it say logicpd zoom2 instead of NC which it ahould

Apologies if this is the wrong section, no idea where else to post.

You will not lose books you bought but the read to me ones won't work anymore.
You can install right over stock root. No need to unroot.

Your Nook books will never go away they are safe on B&N Servers. however if you install CM7 you will Destroy all information currently on your nook. Including the Fancy B&N apps, that allows reading of Mags, and Children Books.
Once you have CM7 installed you can easily get the Nook App of the Marketplace but it can not read Magazines and children books. but you will still be able to sync you library and get all your normal books on it.
Keep in mind that CM7 is a completely New Rom and writes over all the internal Memory.
Also you just need to go to your options of the XDA App and change what the default Sig it set too.....

Does anyone know why rom manager premium doesn't show nightlies 14 or 15 yet?

New CNN App, others, not showing

I am getting tired of some of the quality apps not showing up in my Nook Market. I am using CM7.
eBay, Gowalla, Amazon, now CNN (and a few others) do not show up. I have to Bluetooth them over from my phone to get them installed (and even then it's a pain when they have an update).
Anyhow, will this ever be fixed? Can the dev's somehow fool the market into beleiving that the Nook meets all of the requirements so that all of the basic missing apps show up?
Just curious if there is ANY hope in the future on this....

I believe i see the problem. I went onto the web market, and looked at the permissions, and i think it all comes down to them requiring this:
"# Hardware controls:
take pictures and videos"
Somehow, you would have to make the nook tell the market that it can take pictures/video, which should then make it compatible. I don't know how easy this is though, so i will leave it to a dev..

There are 5 or 6 apps I use on my Droid (1) that I cannot locate in the market on my NC because of this camera permission. VERY FRUSTRATING! I'm sure the devs will create a workaround for this eventually (i hope!)...

I'll fix it. Thanks for pointing it out.

Please. I would really appreciate it very much.

Well, yeah it'd be nice if they could just disable the camera feature. Apps crash if you force 'em and they try to use the camera, so caveat emptor

I ported the .apk of the new CNN app from my Epic thru Dropbox, it won't install on the Nook....

I didnt try the CNN one yet (I tried it on my phone and it was ok, but nothing like the HC on the Xoom version) but I got Amazon on my nook with Cm7 without any problem, then loaded all my apps that I had from my phone.
I loaded it by going to Amazon.com and loggin in, then it loaded to my device pretty easy (maybe one more step, but easy).
Battery on Nightly 40 was not good, i left it at 64% last night and when got home from work it was 8%. Waiting for the recharge now and then will load #41 and see if anything is better. Sorry for the long Ramble on the amazon question.

CNN works fine on my Nook. Had to grab the apk from my Fascinate.

The eBay, Amazon, CNN, and Gowalla app all download and work on a stock rooted nook with the newer market update. The eBay, Amazon, and Gowalla apps are all on the amazon market, have to tryed to download from there? I am without my personal computer for a few more weeks or else I would look into the problem for you, it should be a simple code change to get it to work on CM7.

Here's the apk for CNN that works on the NC.

Dalingrin said he could fix this, does that mean I should be looking for a it in a recent CM7 Nightly?

Toshiba Thrive Apps?

Hey all,
was wondering if anyone has a thrive rom dump? has some interesting sounding apps that would be awesome if we could get them over to the xoom, such as:
Perhaps our favorite app -- second only, perhaps, to File Manager -- is PrinterShare, an app that allows you to find nearby printers and print documents, photos, and webpages over WiFi. We fell in love as much with its ease of use as its utility. Just open the app, select an application from which you might want to print something, and then find a list of printable documents (or, in the case of the Gmail app, messages). We wish every tab came with something like this out of the box.

edit: nvm - mods delete if you want, couldn't find a thrive section, but just did a search, :fail: on my part sorry

you found it then? Could you post it?

Printershare is available on android market. The version from the thrive system dump doesn't look any different.

All of the games from the Thrive sysdump install and work fine on my Xoom.
BackgammonToshiba.apk
EuchreToshiba.apk
HeartsToshiba.apk
SolitaireToshiba.apk
SpadesToshiba.apk
NFSShift.apk - HD Version Demo
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1165989

The Toshiba File Manager is worthless on Xoom, built for their device - stick with Root Explorer or ES.

i couldnt install backgammon, and printer share always hangs at 61% when openning a document.

Im having a really hard time downloading the whole system dump on my xoom. Could you possibly upload the apps that work well on our xooms?

"This app is compatible with your device" When browsing Play Store?

On all my other Android devices I can install apps from my laptop via the Play website. Can I not do that on my Fire HD even though it tells me I can, or am I missing something?

I am curious as well if there is a way to tweak the kfhd to download more apps from the playstore...like lie to it that ot is some other ics device

Ummmm. No, as far as I know. I don't see how or why this would work until the KF2 gets a real OS on it. Once it down, I do not see why it shouldn't. For now though, I don't know of any ways it's possible. Back to browsing on the device for you! [EDIT] I was wrong! The app is on my device. It was sitting in front of me for an hour or so when I turned it on to do stuff and found the app I pushed on it there! So it does work in theory, it may be slow for you, or some other issue, but it should work it seems!

Yes, this IS possible. I will look into it and post. It's a file you have to tweak, I did it before on tablets I just am completely blanking out since it's been a year or two. You will probably need something like RomToolbox. That's what I bought ages ago and use on every device I hack, just a personal preference but you will need a "build.prop editor".

Here use this app it will switch you device to make it look like a different device and allows you to download more apps.

[Q] cannot get gmail to sync

I apologize if this has been addressed elsewhere, but I'm extremely new to all of this! If it's answered somewhere else just point me in that direction
Anyways: I got my kindle fire hd (8.9) two days ago. I tried to use the stock email application to set job my gmail but after entering in my information, it says it does not have permission to sync with the server. My husband and I tinker around with it all day yesterday to no avail.
Also, since I do have Google play on here,I do have the gmail application, but when I try to open it, I just get a pop up that states gmail has stopped working.
I watched a YouTube video where someone was able to set it up (via stock) without issue.
Any ideas would be greatly appreciated, thanks!
.........
Note: chrome also does not work, and other launchers (besides go launcher hd for tablets which is what was on there after my husband finished rooting it) will not open/work. I'd love to be able to use Nova....
