I rooted my nook using MN 4.5.6 after I updated to 1.2
My device failed to reboot after I updated the flash player to 10.3, I suggest that no one does that.
Flash only works with built-in browser, for example if you install Dolphin browser it won't work on it.
I'm unable to update the market app like i have done in the past, thus the problem with tilting the device sideways to load more apps still remains.
Anyone has a solution to any of these issues?

I wish I could be of some help, but at least I can reply as to whether I'm having the same issue.
My (well it's technically my wife's) NC came with 1.1
I updated that to 1.2 from the barnes & noble site, then rooted it with the latest manual nooter (4.5.18 I think.)
I did not update flash however, and flash works just fine in Dolphin HD.
The easiest thing to do would probably be to just flash to stock and then re-root it. You'll end up losing stuff, but it's probably the most sure-fire way to get back to a working state.
Edit: I have no idea what can be done about the market issue. I'm having that as well and it's kinda irritating.

Ok, so I've had a rooted NC for a while with no problems. I even flashed the quickie screamer overclock mod. Well, after I flashed the 1.1.0 update (using Decad3nce's method on the Development Forum), I started having a few problems:
1) My overclock seems to have disappeared. I was stably running up to 900 Mhz on overclock before the update, but after the update, I noticed the browser to be more sluggish. When I ran SetCPU, it reverted back to stock 300-800 Mhz. Can I safely reflash the overclock rom?
2) My Market seems screwed up. When I checked out the new 2.2 market, I noticed that 2 of my apps required updates (Kindle and Titanium Backup). I tried to update, but the apps didn't seem to want to update. In fact, when I looked at the My Apps section in the Market, I could see them on the list as "FREE" instead of "Installed" even though they were, in fact, installed (just the unupdated versions). I managed to even run these apps successfully. I decided to uninstall and redownload. However, when I tried downloading again from the Market, it would appear to try to download but it never does. In fact, when I tried to download other apps that I never had on my NC (Tweet Deck), it would not download at all (but it would also appear in My Apps list as "FREE").
Help please.
1) Yes, it is infact safe to flash the oc kernel again, I recommend the 1100mhz kernel as I have been stable on it for some time.
2) Try clearing the data for the google framework aswell as the cache for the market.

WiFi frequently disconnects on rooted NC (1.1)
I updated my autonootered NC from 1.0.1 to 1.1.0 using the Clockworks mod.
Everything seems to be working well except often when I wake the Nook up, there's no WiFi connection and it doesn't find the connection unless I turn WiFi off and then back on (in which case it'll find it and connect).
Any suggestions?
Thanks.

The 'wifi sleep bug' is reported by many and seems to be unresolved by most ... it is the primary reason many are staying on 1.01 until a really stable root comes around .. the advantages of 1.1 aren't really of much use to me, but YMMV .. the devs here are great!! but be sure you read the whole thread on something before you go for it and be sure if you are one of the first to try someone's work to realize that there is a risk ...
nookcolor 1.0.0 with official update to 1.0.1 then with autoroot, that enable android market, and run smoothly
after update to 1.1.0 use the following rom [ROM] Nook Color V1.1.0_r2, market won't run anymore, I tried to
use http://market.android.com to install new apps, but it doesn't work too. does anyone have the clue?
[ROM] Nook Color V1.1.0_r2
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=932145
tried to restore to origianl 1.0.0 rom, but it boot to Clockwork Recovery everytime
what do you mean market wont run? if you are getting the server error message just wait eventually it will work. it seems like with the new market, google is changing settings on peoples accounts which will block your device from accessing the market. i had the same problem but the next day it was gone.
if you tried to put your nook back to stock and now its only booting into CWR go to the developers thread and they have multiple ways to recover your nook
here
and here
To restore to stock you need to remove the SD card and then press and hold the power button until it powers off and then press to turn on, wait until the N appears and press and hold power until it turns off and then repeat this process for like 8 times or so and it will then update the firmware to stock.
Im seeing the same thing.. Ver 1.1.0 and get the Market Server error everytime i try to launch the Market.
I updated to 1.1 and then booted with Autonooter 3.0 image. The Market works fine setup wizard was all I needed and all my apps are there. So, it's not definitely not the B&N 1.1 update causing the problem.
Also couldn't get the market to run after upgrading to 1.1.0
Press the icon and it would flash a white screen then back to the app folder. Youtube was doing this as well and I was able to fix it by removing and reinstalling, but I can't do this with the market apparently (just keeps running the install then saying market not installed)
I tried to make anflashable evrsion of the vending.qpk but it didn't even run because I have no clue how to make flashable packages for CWR.
Any ideas? Kinda sux not having the market

Don't use CWN and that ROM then (not that there's anything wrong with it).
Backup anything you don't want to lose by copying it your computer in any way you can / want.
Instead try going back to stock like described here...
http://www.nookdevs.com/Flash_back_to_clean_stock_ROM
Then update to 1.1 from official B&N update found here...
http://www.barnesandnoble.com/u/nookcolor-support-software-update/379002520/?cds2Pid=35758
Then boot with AutoNooter 3.0 from here...
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=942424
Connect to WiFi and then just follow the setup wizard.
After that...run the market, agree to market terms and you're done!
FYI, I didn't have to use Youtube to get the Market to work. The Setup Wizard worked all on it's own.
Ok, let me rephrase. Any ideas on why I can't instal the market. Tips to get it reinstalled? I did this once on my phone and I had to remove all traces of the market first, hurt I can't remember where all the files and folders were located.
I like using CWR as it is what I am familiar with

Market runs -but not well...?
Total newbie - seamlessly rooted NC 1.1 yesterday - (so grateful to developers!)
One of the only problems I have encountered is with Market -- I've searched and searched these forums to see if anyone else is having a similar problem -- but have yet to find anything.
I am able to access Market, and download apps with no problem. The only issue is when I view anything in the Market, it only shows roughly 10 results in any list I view. If I do a search, it may indicate that there are 754 results but will only list 10-12 of the results. Not a dealbreaker of course but if there's a work around, or fix, I'd love to know.
TIA

Use AppBrain app. You're on older android market.
Took the gapps zip from the Monster package and removed all files except the contents of META-INF and the vending.apk and flashed in CWR, market back .

Turn your NC to landscape.
Can anyone help? Here's what happened. I rooted my nc then I was playing with for a while. Then I clicked on one off my files that I installed myself, clicked on it and my nc restarted. When it turned back on it had the nc boot screen instead of the customized boot up screen. When I tried setting it up again and signing on to my gmail account it was working. So I had to unroot the whole thing. Now everything works. But can someone explain why it restarted and kind of unrooted by itself? Thank ill really appreciate it.

Perhaps a Software Update reset your NC.
What file did you run? Also, what firmware version is your Nook currently running vs what version was it running before?
My firmware version is 1.0.1 right now. It hasn't changed. I used autorooter 2.12.25.
I actually just had the same thing happen to me with mine. It's a 1.1 from the box. All I was doing was changing some wall papers, then re-booted to try and install a different keyboard but didn't get there before seeing there was an "authentication problem" and needed to reset. I noticed some quirks after I was playing in rom manager and tried to reboot into recovery from there...whoops. I flashed nookie froyo and didn't like it, and I think reverting back gave me some issues. I've unrooted and re-rooted as of last night. I think I may just exchange it while I have the option. I used the 1.1 image posted somewhere here to un-root and used auto nooter 3.0 to root.
This just happened to me. I think it had to do with verifying my books, making sure they are legal copy's or something. or maybe updating one of my subscriptions. (Don't know)
My Nook is updated with 1.1.0
I rooted with autonooter 3.0
My thinking is that I should de-register and re-root
Than access my nookbooks thru a market app.
I have a nook that I rooted with autonooter 3.0. It has been running great with no problems but the last two days I keep getting the download unsuccessful in market app. My question is should I flash it and go back to the original, update with barnes and nobel 1.2 update and then root it again? I have looked on forums for fixes for the market but cannot seem to find what they are talking about. I am new to all of this so am not sure what I should think about doing....Any help would be great!

Could you tell me if you can go to the B&N shop and purchase/download a free book like you normally can? I have a hunch that the device in some form or another is deregistering itself, and clearing some of the system file information. A number of people have started experiencing this problem, and I believe that it did not start until the B&N update came out.
reply
Yes I can go into B&N and download a book and late last night I was able to download Rom manager from the market...Not really sure what to do with that now that I got it...but was able to download it. Still cannot get the Root explorer that I paid for...
After the original 1.3 update broke the root, I re-flashed 4.6.16 and all was well, I downloaded & installed from market and everything was just fine....until recently.
I am still using my 3 installed apps without issue (overdrive, kobo & kindle), but I am unable to download new apps or updates. The download seems to happen, but I get an "!" in the notification area telling me that the app/update was not downloaded.
Last night, I used settings to clear market data, I uninstalled the market update (rolled from 3.0.27 back to 2.3.*) and re-booted, and still no luck. Then I tried a full restore from Titanium backup of all settings/app data from when it was successfully re-rooted with market working, re-booted and still nothing.
Could I flash 4.5.25 over what I have? Then re-flash 4.6.16, would that fix things? Does anyone else have this problem?
I searched the threads but no one else seems to have lost all market functionality.
Any help is greatly appreciated - I need to update some apps and I would like to add some more. Now it's just a reader and....a reader. I would hate to wipe it and set it up all over again.
Thanks!
I Gave Up....
....Restored 1.2, Flashed 4.6.16 and market is back and operational. I deleted the pre-installed flash 10.* using TB, then downloaded flash 11 from the market.
I then changed "auto" to "manual" to block the ota 1.3 update which I assume is inevitable. I followed the instructions found here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=946969
All seems well -- but that last thread is kind of old, I am hopeful nonetheless.
Does anyone know if my problems are solved? I did not reboot for fear of the boot loop.
I don't care about whatever B&N 1.3 does, 1.2 with full market is much happier for me.
