So I try to install Astro through the market. It downloads and start the install process but always fails with no details. Ideas on how to fix?
Froyo 0.6.8 on SD
Related
I am rooted via autonooter and firmware is 1.0.1. I don't have the option of installing to SD or transferring apps to SD. the option simply isn't given in the application manager settings. is this option not installed via autonooter? is there a workaround? if I reset and bump up to 1.1.0 and root again is it likely to make a difference? what version of android is actually installed in the autonooter 2.12.25?
should I be able to install and tranfer apps to SD once rooted with autonooter 2.12.25?
sorry if this question is recycled. I cannot find a similar question or problem on this forum.
I got my new Nook Color today, and installed Nookie Froyo 0.6.8 CWR for eMMC Update (2/25) on it. I get access to market and able to install and run apps fine. I don't get all the apps I have on my DROID2. I was looking for Facebook, Fox News and some other, and can't find. I changed my build.prop to see if that helped, rebooted, nope. I ran the permissions manager on ROM Manager, rebooted, nope. Any ideas?
I'm running CM7, and I'm Canadian. Whenever I try to install the Nook Android App it says requested item not found. Is there some way I can install this?
I got an SD card with honeycomb on it (I hated it) so I wiped it and install CM7 with apps and I cannot for the life of me get the nook android app back on it like he did (he was American) Does anyone have a trick to get this to work?
Probably the easiest way: (Search how for each of these steps)
Make your SD card bootable with Clockwork Mod Recovery
Download to your PC the .zip file of the ROM you want to install
Place the ROM in the root directory of your SD card
Turn off the Nook and put the card in
Turn on the Nook. It will Boot into Clockwork
Once in Clockwork, Wipe the Cache, Dalvik Cache and Data
Flash the ROM (install the .zip file from the SD card)
When it completes, remove the card and re-boot. (The first boot can take quite a while!)
RECOMMENDED: Also download and install the GoogleApps.zip the same way you installed the ROM
(As I mentioned, you'll have to search for the exact directions for these steps, but that's how I'd do it.

Nice. Is that google apps + nook app + other apps I assume?
I completed manual nooting and was restoring the apps from TI backup.
However, I wasn't able to restore Angry bird. I get "Unable to Install" error.
I could not install through the Amazon market either, it had same error.
All other apps are installing just fine all 3 flavors of angry birds won't install.
It isn't that crucial, but it would be good if I can get this working.
Thanks.

Potential fix for Angry Bird install after manual nooter
A lot of people are saying that you can't install angry birds with the SD card installed. This sounds like the problem that I had with my Droid X. To fix it I had to delete the file left from the prior install under .android secure on the SD card. I guess that Froyo sometimes has issues with this file getting corrupt on the micro SD and then it can't install correctly during updates and reinstalls. I think you lose all previous data but at least you have it working normally now with the SD card installed. I'll try it on my nook and post back. I would have put this in the manual nooter thread but I don't have enough posts to post there.
I formatted my sd card and it had no effect. I also tried several times with the card in and with it out and it still failed. What I ended up trying was using adb command line (adb install XXX/XXX.apk) and it worked perfectly. I now have Angry Birds 1.53 installed and working. I don't know why the app store can't install, but the command line method did work. Of course this will only work if you have adb setup on your computer correctly.
Note: I initially tried to do a copy and paste the apk to system/apps to install via astro file manager but the directory seems to be read only.
had the same issue - had to install it manually.. took my backed up copy and using adb
adb install "Angry Birds 1.5.2.apk"
not sure what the issue is... some people said it was the 4mb issue, but i was able to get some >4mb files installed no problem... hopefully one of the devs can figure out why.
Try to remove sd card, that was the only way I could install angry birds. I did pay for the one that B&N has. I have all installed now. Hope this helps.
The way I got them to install was to copy the apk file in the /data/app folder and then set permissions to rw-r--r-- then reboot
BN bug
To install angry birds, you need to get the apk on your nook and then install without an SD card in the slot. BN has acknowedged this is a problem in their FAQ. http://bookclubs.barnesandnoble.com...estions/m-p/979622/message-uid/979622#U979622
"Q4: When I try to install “Angry Birds”, I get an error. Help?
This issue is being investigated by our engineering team.
WORKAROUND: Please remove any microSD cards from your NOOK Color and try again. You can reinsert the card after installation has completed. "
This is how I got it to install:
1. go to settings, device info, unmount SD card
2. remove SD card
3. download the apk from my dropbox account and
4. install
The catch is that market requires an SD card to download
Right now, I am on CM6. I have tried CM7 but most games don't run well. On CM6, games run much faster, but sometimes apps don't install. For example, usually if an app is above 10mb in size, and you have some apps moved to the sd card, it fails to work. Also, I have installed a game, and I tried to move it to sd card, it failed so I uninstalled it, and whenever I try to re-install it, it says "Application not installed" Does anyone have any advice as to how I can fix this?
Thanks, and any help is appreciated.
Edit: Fixed, plugged into computer, deleted files in android.secure folder which had messed up sd card data probably and reflashed cm6 and installed. (Not sure if the reflash is necessary)
