[Q] netflix - Nook Color General

My Nook bricked when I tried to update to the new CyanogenMod build. SD card got wiped. Now the Market won't let me reinstall. Any work around for this? Thanks in advance! Yes, I am a Noob!

[Q] colornook zinio anyone?

Anyone able to get zinio magazine reader run on the nook color?
Following thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=827566 here I got the apk and installed, but the zinio app isnt visible and the readerhub isnt working either.
the zinio app is the last thing I need to say woohoo and be satisfied with the root.
Thanks to all who have done so much with the nookcolor to root and share the information!
Thanks
I tried it as well. Got nothing.
Seems like a cool app but doesn't work yet.
I was just on the phone with Zinio today because I wanted to find out if they will be coming out with an Android app, and they told me they are working on one and should have it sometime in the first half of 2011.

works for me on Nookie Froyo, but dies on the stock firmware.
I tried installing on stock firmware with adb. I got the icon to show up but that's about it. I did try changing permissions but that did not help either. Works on my EVO. So something is missing the stock firmware.
Maybe it requires flash to work, it works fine for me on Froyo, booted of an SD card.

Anyone have this working with CM7 on the Nook Color? I loaded the three APK's but zinio just force closes as soon as it tries to connect. If the wifi is off the app seems to work. Tried fixing permissions and rebooting but it didn't help. Wondering if maybe it doesn't work with flash 10.2 perhaps...

Power/sleep button wont sleep after rooting.

Hey I was just wondering if anyone else had this issue and if there was a fix already available for this. After rooting the device everything is great except I cant force the sleep mode anymore. When I press the power button nothing happens. Now if I hold it down it will turn off and on and it will also go to sleep on its own just fine. I just can initiate the sleep myself. Ive been using it like this for weeks doesnt really bother me much just wanted to know if I was the only person to have this problem and if there was a fix.
(Sorry if this is posted somewhere else. I searched and searched)

That definitely isn't normal. I'd restore to factory and re-root . . . or just leave it un-rooted and run nookie froyo from an SD.
If u used auto-nooter, did u try to reformat your SD card after it was done?
I noticed some issues with the sleep button before I reformatted mine.

It actually ran great until I reformatted the card and the first reboot and thats when it started.

Yeah, you'll have to backup/ restore. A relatively easy way would be to back it up via Titanium, transfer Titanium's backup files to the SD partition on nookie froyo, and then restore via Titanium. It'd be best to only restore apps + data, not system data.

Ok I think Im gonna go ahead and take the plunge lol. Thanks for the help man.
i have the same problem, but it might not be due to the rooting, since mine was working fine also after couple of reboots but sudennly stop later.
please advice, i dont want to re-root everything again

You will need to give us a lot more info than that. What version of CM7? Internal or SD installation? What version of CWR did you use? Did you get the instructions from a specific site?
Ill get all of that right after class. Busy college student ftw
Sounds like a memory problem, or a memory card problem.
Nah I've heard of this happening a lot.
Running the latest nightly of cm7, did this last night to the T

NC with 1.3 update and rooted with manual nooter, problems??

I have a NC with a 1.3 update and previously had it rooted using the manual nooter 4.6.16.. until I had to reboot, and it stuck at the loop.
Is there anyway to prevent this?? I have wiped, restarted, wiped again, tried something else. I am new to all this, and have read everything on these website about rooting after the 1.3 update, until I have gotten myself very confused!!!
I want my orginial NC with 1.3 update, along with the market, so I don't want to install CM7. Any suggestions???
Thanks!
I was in the same boat.
I decided Market functionality & re-boot was more important than 1.3, so I opted to go back to 1.2 and now everything is fine/working.
I also used root explorer to overwrite "auto" updates for B&N in registry with "manual" updates http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=946969.
Hopefully it keeps things working and I won't get 1.4 -OR- someone will update manual nooter to accommodate 1.4.
Are you updating flash before you reboot?

See, I am so new to this, and I am not sure how to do these updates. I have the 1.3 update, so I just loaded the 4.6.16. that's it. How do you update the flash.

I have been through the same thing, and scoured XDA for a solution, with no satisfactory and permanent solution. In the end it seems the options are to do a Dual boot solution, with one for B&N stock and the other for CM7/MIUI/Phiremod, OR give up on B&N stock and move to CM7, MIUI or Phiremod; which is what I did. Very happy with MIUI from http://MIUI.US.
B&N are going to work tirelessly to mess up dualboots and rooted devices. Get them out of you hair.

You do not want to update flash. It causes a boot loop. Are you only using one MN file? I'm pretty sure there are two MN files you have to flash for 1.3

Yes... I am using the 4.6.16, only. Back when I was trying to do this for the first time, I followed the directions on this website to the letter, and it just never worked. XDA told me, that it was because I already had 1.3 update, so that since that was the case, I needed only to use 4.6.16.
From the MN thread:
1.3 Must do these instructions first with 4.5.18 then with 4.6.16.
You need both.

I had a Nook Color on 1.2, updated to 1.3. Rooted with ManualNooter and did the instructions with both 4.5.18 then with 4.6.16. It booted fine several times over a couple of days, as soon as I installed the CWR from Rom Manager it did the boot loop. I went back to 1.2 and did the whole thing again thinking I had done something wrong. Same thing again. I tried to do the CWR 3.0.1.0 zip fix but no dice. Mine loops on the Nook Co (clolored letters). So if anyone has any ideas, on what to do thanks in advance. I guess I am going to try going back to factory one more time and not install the CWR from Rom Manager.
If I can't get that to work - then Cyanogenmod7. I have done another Nook Color for my grandson with CM7 and it works fine. I wanted to try this on another one.

I faced the exact same "nook co" issue. Read through the MN forum and figured out it was because as soon as i booted up, i logged into the market and updated Flash. once i realized the issue, I quickly logged into the market and cancelled the flash update(it had already started an auto update). Never had the problem again.
Good Luck !
The problem is the flash and adobe air update. There's actually a zip file you can flash when you root your device floating around here somewhere. It fixes the problem and 1.3 is happy. There's still a few apps missing from the market.. but nothing major

I read about the updating flash, and yesterday, I finally got back to where I was before it stuck on the loop. Before I could figure out how to cancel the flash update, it updated!!
SO, I can either start over, and figure out how to cancel the update, or just not reboot!

I also found an update to fix the Flash and Adobe Air since it had updated before I could uncheck the auto update. Once I booted to CWR from an sdcard and then installed the fix file - that fixed my boot loop issue and it has been working fine ever since. Try it - worked for me. I actually found a file named FlashPlayer11.0_AIR3.0_Update_Fix_20111020.zip - I'm not sure where, but it worked.
I managed to root my NC once again, but this time...when Flash started trying to update, and I got it stopped!
If it updates by itself and gets stuck on the Loop page, I plan to use the file that is posted above !
Thank you everyone!!
Rather than waiting for it to boot at the wrong time, I would just go ahead and boot into CWM and run the adobe fix. Thats what I did and it has been working great since.
Help downloading outside apps w/nooter

I can do this on my phone, but with my nook, after the manual nooter I can't figure out how to change this so I can download outside apps.
Can any help me chang this setting?

yep got it. Now i feel kind of stupid for even bringing up something so trivial. thanks a million for taking the time out to answer. i guess because i was still trying to move the apps over to my external sd card instead of the internal sd card (which didn't work) and hadn't tried to install any apps for a little while i forgot what i was attempting before.
