[Q] Anybody else have trouble with HBO GO? - Nook Color General

I installed the HBO Go app on my Nook, but when I try to open it and log on, it force closes. I have an HBO account through DirecTv.
Has anybody else gotten this to work properly?

There's a thread under android development that contains information about generating and IMEI number. After doing that, HBO works

If you pass along your login info, I would be happy to check it out for you.

My HBO Go app updated today, and now it works! Before, it would force close when I clicked "sign in," but today it's working perfectly, with no other modifications!

Missing Android Market for Rooted Nook Color

I rooted my nook color and it works perfect, but i noticed when i unzipped the gapps file using clockwork nothing loaded. I was wondering if there is a way to get the android market without having to root all over again?. Any help would be
greatly appreciated.
Same Problem!
Gods I HATE that my first post is a ... " ME TOO! " but what can you do?
I just got the NC yesterday, and of course rooted it right away with CM7 using huskermania's videos. Every worked fine EXCEPT no google apps! Removed the hacks ( thought I did it wrong ) did it again....no luck!
Are the current zip files bad? ( Ive tried both gapps-gb-20110613-signed.zip and gapps-gb-20110307-signed.zip )
any suggections ?
Tom
I've got the same issue, followed eyeballers instructions and used gapps-gb-20110613-signed.zip.
Besides the missing market icon, everything seems to work fine.
EDIT: Found a fix for the issue on my nook; Went to https[://]market[.]android[.]com, tried to install something. I was prompted to accept the license agreement and set up my Google account with market.
Then I was asked which Google apps to install (youtube, google search, gmail, etc.), ticked what I wanted and confirmed.
Now I have the market icon available, also some more icons in the menu. As the WiFi was pretty unstable (Restaurant during lunch break) not all of the apps were downloaded, but so far it seems to work.
Thank you for the quick response. I tried going to the market and install, but when it ask where to download app the drop down menu does not give me the option of my nook color. Did i miss a step somewhere?

While you are connected to wi-fi try going to settings > accounts > add account > log in > and see what happens.

Are you running the stock nook interface or a google interface?
I am running cyanogen mod 7.0.3-encore. I don't know if that helps any?
I believe it is a google interface.

I found it, and when i try to register it gives me an error-unable to open connection to server. I used the right gmail user account and password. I know it must get frustrating dealing with noobs but i really appreciate your help.
I rooted my nook color as well, using the same instructions. I don't have the Android Market either. Did the instructions above work? I've tried going to the android market place and set up an account, but Im getting a msg that there are no android accounts associated with my account...please help!
Thanks!!
Bump. My friend has the same issue. He is an iPhone user and has no Android phone associated with his account

[Q] DirecTV NFL Sunday Ticket

Has anyone had any luck finding a working version for the G Tab? I have CM 7.03 installed and the market says it's incompatible with the device. Not sure if any apk of the program will work.
Man..it would be over if i get something like this on my Tab. NBA Pass also. Is this even possible i wonder.
I loaded the tablet version, it crashes as soon as it opens on FB Honeycomb 8.1. It would be great to have it working!
Im running mountain laurel and it shows up in the market. It runs and comes up to the point where it asks for name and password. I don't have direct tv so I couldn't tell you what happens after that. I wont pay $350, that's just crazy. So i'm going to get slingbox for nfl if I can confirm its running on a froyo rom ok.
The first time I opened sunday ticket I was able to enter my login and pass word. It then crashed after I hit enter. Now it crashes as soon as it opens.
Ill test it for you, just give me your info....hahahaha. just kidding...I think.

The reason for it FC is it acts the same as HBO Go. You need to read up on IMEI spoof for the Gtab. I am running Beast 2.2 with the IMEI spoof and don't have a issue running NFL ticket app, HBO Go or Max Go. Each one of those apps require the use of a IMEI number.

I uninstalled sunday ticket and installed the imei spoof. after installing sunday ticket for tablets and entering my login info it still crashes. I uninstalled again and installed the standard version. This time it loaded fine but it takes the live video several minutes to buffer and the live video is so small its almost unwatchable. What version are you using and what size is your video? Do I need to switch to Beast 2.2?
well..
I was able to get both the Tablet version and normal version installed and enter my credentials. The tablet version crashed after that. the standard version though, I was able to pull up scores. I will try to stream the game tonight and will update this post after that.
I'm running Flashback 1.2 newest release 10.0
well, again...
I fired it up last night, and when I tried to launch "watch live" I got an error that said "Sorry this game is not part of NFL Sunday Ticket"..still not sure if it's going to work or not.
i have used the nfl sunday ticket and watched many live games on my g-tablet so far this year with no problem. im using running cyanogenmod 7 and using the regular app i downloaded from my hd2.
hmmmm....

you think you could upload the APK for us to try? doesn't make any sense!
edit: I tried to get the SundayTicket for tablets to work and it didn't. The standard app worked for a little while, and then began to force close and freeze up.
I had it working on Vegacomb vesion 8 but upgraded to 9 and now I can't find the APK. Anyone want to help.
Confirmed working on Vegacomb 9n and 8.1 but for those looking for the apk file you need to go to the market with marketenabler app if you don't have access to the us market. from there its typing in directv as your search word and then looking around until you stumble upon the app, it never showed up any other way for me.
Good Luck
Im so sorry i forgot to check this thread back for replies. Anyway, attached is the apk that im using:

CM7 installed, but nook app won't work right

I'm loving CM7 and having netflix is amazing but not having the nook app really hurts.
I can log in fine. It sees my library but when I try to download the books from my library I get the message "Problem downloading this item. Please try again Later."
I'm able to download the free-be books just fine, just not the one's I've purchased for other devices. Also, I can't seem to find any books I've side loaded onto the nook.
Any ideas?
Btw, I'm on the nightly 217 though I had the same problem with an older version as well.
Try installing CM7.1 as the stable is out now.

No dice. Still forces closes for me on 7.1 and the newest nightly too (217).
Ok, 2 people with different issues.....
cinciblue6, try fixing permissions. If that does not work you need to tell us more. Any other apps causing force closes? What version of the Nook app are you using? Did it ever work? Can you recall when it stopped and what you had recently done?
Tapiozona, when you sync it do all your books show up? What version of the app are you using? Sometimes I find if I long press the book and choose show details and then the download button from the new screen if goes through anyway.
@patruns
My problem is slightly different. Mine can download books just fine but when I try to open them, it force closes. Not sure when it stopped working. I would guess sometime after nightly 197 (though I went straight to 210 after that.) VLC Remote also does not work (though I just dled that last night so it never has.)
Tried fixing permissions but it didn't do anything to help the situation.
Edit: I may have updated the Nook app recently. I'll check to see.
Try signing out of the B&N app, then reboot and sign back in. You will have to re-download any books you wish to read though. This was also required when updating the app last month.

Did it before and just did it again and still no dice.
I'm gonna do an uninstall and reinstall and see if it works. If not, I guess I'll just wait to see if it ever starts working. I have a regular Nook so it's not a big deal but for magazines I prefer the NC.
Thanks for the help.

I fixed this issue for a customer the other day, it happened because the credit card associated with the account had expired. Log in to the B&N website and try changing your credit card on file and see if that helps.

[Q] Installing Gmail Problems

So, recently I rooted my phone following this page

and got the safestrap to work as well
but then I rooted my phone from this thread
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2709701
so, I noticed my gmail disappeared. So, I went ahead and tried to install it from the Play Store. But, it's not installing or not installed properly.
The GMail app does show up on the Menu. And I would have to go through the play store to open the app. Even after opening the app, the loading bar in the gmail app would keep going and going and nothing would show up.
Note: My default email works though.

Stop chrome from opening apps from links?

Does anyone know how to stop Chrome from trying to open or install an app when you click a link? For instance, I get an email from TurboTax for a monthly update on my credit score. If I click the link on my computer, it goes to a webpage. If I click the same link on my phone, it tries to install their app and I can't find a way around it.
Any ideas? I googled for a how-to and I couldn't find anything helpful. It's not a default app thing, as far as I can tell.

Try to open the chrome in desktop mode... Then click the link
Edit: just realized what you were asking... If u already have the app see if u can remove the defaults.. Also you can make another browser like Firefox as your default one and see if that makes a difference
