So I've flashed back to a stock 1.0.1 and i'm noticing strange behavior with some of my side loaded content. It seems that only some books will properly load with the keep reading link of the open book icon at the bottom of the screen. I've played with a few different books and i can't seem to figure out why it's selective. If i open the library and pick the book from there it loads to the last page every time. Has anyone else seem this? or have any suggestions on what to check. If i need to root again and pull the DBs to figure out why I may if i get bored sometime this week.
Thanks
I have the Customized Nookie Froyo found here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=922324
I downloaded Amazon's Kindle app and it won't sync with a free book I tried to get. I uninstalled, rebooted and reinstalled the app figuring it was worth a shot but that didn't work.
All the other apps I've tried appear to be working correctly.
Any suggestions/help greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance.

Do you have an SD card inserted? I noticed I can't get Kindle to sync or download books if the SD is unmounted or if there isn't one. The App must download books to SD instead of internal memory (kind of annoying considering how tiny books are...going to try tricking it into downloading to internal by creating a symlink)
Yes, the SD is inserted. The OS is running off the SD card and there appears to be plenty of memory. I'll have to double check that when I get home though.
I had a similar problem to this. Sync would not bring up my books. Then in the menu I found "Archived items" and all of my books were there then I was able to (re)download them and that brought hem into the main section in the Kindle app.
This is going to sound silly but how do you get in the menu? I don't see a menu or info button of any sort on the main Kindle screen. I'm sure it's probably really obvious and I will kick myself for not seeing it.
ETA: I just switched the Kindle app from the unit to the SD card and tried to send a (free) book to my NC again. It gave a sync error message and told me to try again later.
2nd Edit: I'm such a dork today. I found the menu. *smacks self V8 style*
I rebooted my NC and tried to sync again. This time it at least recognized the book but still wouldn't download. I'm on the wi-fi at work so I'll try this again when I get home where I have more control over the amount of bandwidth available.
ETA: I don't want to bump the thread but I do want to leave a note about the fix that finally worked in case others have this problem.
Go into settings>applications>manage applications>downloaded
Select Amazon Kindle
Under Data select move to SD card
Reboot
Open the Kindle App and it should sync after that.
Im having a problem syncing the Amazon App store to my nook table. i had my nook rooted and it was synced but i procrastinated and didnt put titanium on it and stop the OTA so i had to fix it. now everything is back to what it was but i cant get Amazon to sync this time. Is there something that i did to mess it up and can i fix it?
I read a lot of threads, about using ADB to push the google apps onto nook. I couldn't get it to work, probably because i suck at linux.
I ended up just putting the microSD card back into my card reader, copied the vending.apk etc to the apps folder, and stuck it back in the nook.
The apps were there when i rebooted, and work fine. (a few force closes elsewhere, but seem to only be after i've changed a setting. and the setting change stayed.)
Did i miss a thread about this, or get lucky? Maybe ADB has other uses but easy is worth a lot when hard doesn't work.
Hey guys,
Did a search and found people with a similar issue but no solution. I bricked my NC last Friday trying to install a kernel. I got it back with recovery but now my Nook library is empty. I've tried uninstalling and reinstalling the Nook app multiple times but no dice. When I look at my account from my computer, everything is still there.
Anyone know what might have happened?
66 Views and nobody has an answer???
Come on guys, somebody has to know something. It sucks because I can't read the book in any other reader because of DRM or some bull**** like that. When I try to open the epub file in any other reader I just get symbols.

This is totally just a guess, but you may want to try going to settings/applications/manage applications/ view all and find nook then clear data, clear cache. I read somewhere that this sometimes helps with apps that are acting up. I hope this helps. good luck.

Thanks dude. I have since given up. I started using the Kindle app and that's working for me so far.
Luckily I can finish reading the book I was in the middle of because I have a Pandigital Novel at home.
I basically had the same issue, but it started a little different.
My library showed all of my books, but when I clicked to download them, it said something about could not download, call 1-800-the-book. Obviously I wasn't about to do that.
I searched around quite a bit and never found an answer that worked. I uninstalled Nook app, re-installed, and updated. That made it worse. Now I don't see any books in my library. I signed out, signed in, refreshed, etc. No luck. I moved the app to sd card, that didn't help.
I never did find an answer, so I just switched everything over to Aldiko. They even have steps on how to import books you bought from B&N.
Interestingly, I have the Nook android app installed on my Evo. Both my Nook and my Evo are on CM7. I have no problems at all with seeing my library or downloading books on my Evo.

I tried Aldiko as well. But when I try to open my B&N book it asks for a password. Moon Reader opens the book, but all I get is gibberish I guess due to DRM. Lame.

Here are the steps I followed to get B&N content on Aldiko. Found it on Aldiko help page.
I was able to use the SD Card feature in Aldiko to import DRM'd Nook books on my Android Device.
At the Home screen in Aldiko, tap SD Card.
Navigate to the Nook folder on your device
Navigate to the Content folder within the Nook folder
Tap on the book you want to import (not on the check box, just tap the title)
You will be prompted to open or import, tap "open"
you will then be prompted for a username and password. The user name is the name on the credit card associated with your Nook purchase. The password is the credit card number itself, no spaces.
Once you have been able to open the book, go back to the home page and follow steps 1 through 4.
This time, when you are prompted to open or import, choose "import". The book will be imported to your Aldiko Library.
The reason I open before importing is that there is no password prompt when importing. I did find that once I had entered my credit card info for one book, I was able to import all of the rest of my Nook purchases without opening first, the app seemed to just need this information once.
Enjoy!
Im having the same problem. I completely erased and rebuilt my whole nook - most recent CM7, and the most recent nook app, and still no librar. Tried Aldico and it does not work as there is no content on my card. I downloaded off my pc to the card and it would not read it.
This has happened to me before, I posted in the B&N forums how to fix it.
What worked for me after (a lot of headache) is simply this: on your online B&N account on the PC, move every single book to Archive, then move them back to the library. They should then show up in your NC.
It seems to be a server refresh type of issue.

B&N support had me try moving one book to archive and back and it didn't show up. I guess I can see if moving them all makes a difference.
EDIT: Nope didn't work
UPDATE:
With the Nook app update on the on the market this morning, suddenly my library is back! Not sure what they updated but it seems to have solved my issue, for now.
I'm having this same issue. Nook app one my rooted NC was working fun until one day, poof, library is empty.
I've tried uninstalling, rebooting, re-installing, signing out, moving the app to SD card, etc etc. App is version 2.6.2. Anyone else experiencing this? I tried to engage B&N support but it's pointless.
Hi all
A couple of days ago I got a nook hd and I put a couple of nzb format comics on it and it worked great. Now with the new 2.1 I can add the comics and get the nice cover on the desktop but when I try and read, I can't open and get a messege that DRP reader failed.
Anybody had this? I've triedmultiple files

Yes, I've had the same problem as have many others, based on what I've read at the B&N Nook forums. Some think it's a bug that'll get fixed soon, others are screaming and saying they're going to demand their money back. I just worked around it by reinstalling some Play Store comic reading apps that I bought to try out when I originally rooted my HD+(I'm trying it out as unrooted stock 2.1 for a while right now).
I do miss having all of my reading material accessible from one library by one app (stock reader), but I'm okay with using Comicat or ComicRack too...nothing worth getting too angry about, in my opinion.
One weird thing: when I originally pulled up my comic shelf in the stock library app just after updating to 2.1, i was able to add comics from my external sd card to the shelf and they stuck around and actually showed the correct cover art, neither of which was the case before 2.1. Seemed like an improvement...Too bad I couldn't, y'know, open and read these comics, though...
