Hello,
Question about my rooted B+N nook.
Currently has Phiremod v6.3.
When I go to website that has flash, I get a message the instructs me to install flash.
I click on the link and it opens up Android Market to the Adobe Flash 10.3 page.
However, it does not display the “Install” button.
Is flash supported on PhireMod?
If so, how do I install Adobe Flash on Phiremod 6.3?
Do I need to install Cyanogen Mod 7 for Flash support?
TIA!
From what I know, it is still supported. On my other NC, that is running Phiremod 6.3, I do have Flash. But I am also using the old market because I froze it with Titanium Backup. My advice, look for a guide on how to get the old market back and. Download it using the old one. (I would keep the old market and not upgrade to the new one either)

Im installing cm7 on a friends nook, but i was wondering if i have to go through autonootering before installing cm7
You do not need to go though autonooter, just install CWR and download the flashable zip and flash it, that's it!
thanks man, that means i can hack his nook at school
Did it work? Mine has gone through rooted, froyo, honeycomb, and now cm7. Just want to find out if it works from a unrooted device.

It should work without having to root. Before installing you might want to back up the original OS with CWR though.
I may have made a huge mistake.
I just purchased a Nook Color version 1.2, and successfully rooted it using ManualNooter 4.5.2. Everything was working pretty much, and I didn't think to check, but went into ROM Mananger, downloaded CM Mod 7.0.2 I believe, and installed it.
It rebooted, installed, and now is stuck at the boot screen (where the word color is rainbow flashing).
No backup (yeah I know...)
Where should I go from here?
Is there a way to flash the Stock 1.2 via CMW? I can get to that screen, but I need a way to install a .zip that will work...
For now I am going to flash to 1.0.1. I can just upgrade over wifi to 1.2 and then re-root, correct?
Figured it out. Flashed to 1.0.1, and then upgraded to 1.2. Now to re-root again haha. What a process!
If you just want to play with CM7, you don't need to root. You can install to SD without touching the 1.2 installation: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1000957
If you want a little simpler, step-by-step version of those instructions, google "anamardoll nook cm7."
The bootable SD you make can also flash CMW to your NC without rooting or otherwise disturbing the 1.2 install. Just make sure you get a suitable SD if you're planning to run CM7 off of it--this thread breaks down what to look for:

Just finished the manual nooter process. Downloaded setcpu. Just reead that I need a custom kernal for overclocking? I assume I am still on stock android system because I can still get to the nook home screen....???
Do I copy the overclock .zip to the sd. Boot into CW and install it? If so, anyone have a link to the kernal I need?
Yes just put the file in the root of your SD card boot into cwm and flash the zip. Since you are on stock 1.2 you should he using dals 06302011 stock froyo kernel on emmc. To get it just go to the development sub forum and click the kernel thread posted by Dal.
Ill ask one more question. I want to get n64oid but it wont show up in market. Do i need a froyo rom or is there a different method for making it show up in market?
Um Im not running stock 1.2 so not sure if your talking about the nook market or the android market. But I believe that all the emulators made by the maker of n64oid have been pulled from the market anyways. You can get the app directly from the developer at http://slideme.org/application/n64oid
Trying to download sam app and it says my phone does not allow non market installs. How do i fix this?
Also, when people say the "root" of my phone. Do you mean the sd?
You have to enable nonmarket app installs. It should be under settings ->applicatiins. Then check allow non market installs. I'm not sure how the manual nooter for 1.2 looks like cuz I never used it. You'll have to be at the android home screen not the nook home screen (assuming its similar to 1.1 when I had mine auto nootered.)
i got a 1.2 nook in today.
wrote an image to my 8gb to get clockwork recovery. after that, i used manualnooter.
reboot and everything looked good. i could open android market and whatnot but since im an android cell phone user, i wanted cyanogen mod on my nook
flash the latest nightly/gapps but couldnt get past the "touch the android to begin screen." did the four corners trick and it worked but there was no android market and googletalk wouldnt work (i would press it and it would auto close itself)
then i flashed miui, got a bunch of FCs.
then i flashed phiremod, same problems as the latest CM mightly.
my questions:
1. whats the most stable rom?
2. im use to everything working on my phone, are there just some things that are not going to work on the NC? obviously text messages and phone arent.
3. how do i get android market on there (so i can get google maps/youtube/etc)?
thanks
You probably need to repartition your nook if it came with 1.2 pre-installed

i dont know why but im about to partition it
any reason why i should be doing this?
The new nook colors have a different partition system than the old ones. Sometimes affecting installs.

This is the guide I followed and everything went smoothly:
[GUIDE] Install CM7 + Clockworkmod to EMMC - ALL NOOKS! (Updated:7/30/11)
eyeballer said:
This guide is intended to take you through the (mostly windows-based) steps needed to replace your internal nook rom with CM7, gapps and clockworkmod recovery 3.2.0.1 (latest as of 6/5/11) all on EMMC. This will work coming from any previous rom, including the latest stock software (excluding dual boot set ups, not supporting that here), no previous rooting is needed for a new nook, however don't forget to boot stock and register the device before flashing to CM7.

sweet! repartitioning did the trick. market is up and running
however, some applications i cant install. i can search for it and click on it but there is no install button => Facebook, Groupon
did some google searching, says its a problem with the new market. can anyone confirm this? one solution was to force stop/clear data on the market application. tried that and it didnt work. help would be appreciated
edit:
found a thread for my problem: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1207811
for future nc searchers: uninstalled market updates under manage applications in the settings.
I installed manualnooter-4-5-18 with no problem. But when I install manualnooter-4-6-16 device gets stuck on colorful Nook Color logo show.
My version is 1.3.
I also need some advice:
1. Isn't it better to use cm-7.2.0-encore instead of original OS? I can't decide.
2. Shouldn't I update to more recent versions of nook software (higher than 1.3) then mod it?
Thank you for software and support

It depends on what you want.
If you are invested in the nook store with lots of purchased apps or want to read interactive kids books, stay with stock. If you stay with stock, upgrade to 1.4.3 (you can get a CWM flashable version by looking in my tips thread linked in my signature) and root with Manual Nooter. I think it is up to 5.08.20.
If you are not invested in stock, definitely go to CM7.2. It is smooth and very stable.

So I decided to go with CM7.2 but
http://wiki.cyanogenmod.com/wiki/Barnes_&_Noble_Nook_Color:_Full_Update_Guide
says it only works with 1.2. I got the link to wiki from here.
And one technical question, does CM7.2 remove original Nook Color OS completely? If so why its version matters?

Yes, if you install CMx on EMMC it will replace B&N ROM on the device.
That is an old instruction... The reason that method only works with 1.2 is because they have you rooting it and installing CWM on EMMC. By making a bootable SD and installing CMx from there, there is no reason to root the B&N ROM before installation... so you can install it regardless of ROM on you NookColor.

So I just copy the CM into the flash (that I had made it bootable with CWM) and install CM from there. I create a backup using CWM.
