Trebuchet.apk under /system/app
Not sure it works by just copying it though...

It's named Home.apk (funny I know) and I can't seem to get my bkup to open to grab it from /system. I can't seem to do it manually either. If you have another method for me I can grab you any package you wish

You are trying to open the nandroid backup file? Just rename the .tar.a to .tar and you can open with winrar or some other archive program.

Thank you both, but may I ask: why is the download a .zip.exe?
Sent from my NookColor using xda app-developers app

Noooo. There is an error parsing the package?!?!
Thanks anyway. Is there a way to fix this?

It is probably because the home.apk for the HD/HD+ is ics and stock Nook Color is froyo. If you modify the androidmanifest.xml file in the apk to change the expected version of android, it might install. But that does not guarantee it will run.

Thank you leapinlar. You are the most helpful person in the nook community on XDA. :happy:

What line in the manifest.xml do I edit?

The line that says minSDKversion. And I don't remember what version froyo is. Look at your other apps. And before you ask, you have to decompile and recompile the apk before you can edit it. Use APK-Multi-Tool. Search web for it.

Thank you again. By the way. I'm on CM7.2 (2.3.7 gingerbread) not froyo.

You are wanting to run the stock launcher on CM. Good luck.

Ugh. I've been looking at APK multi-tool confused::sly: ) and I'm thinking that I'm both too nooby and busy to do this. I'm scared I'll break something or have to stop in the middle of a process. I know this is asking a lot, but can you recompile this APK to work with gingerbread for me?

Newbie at rooting nook

Hi. I got a nook last week and I've been wondering how to root it. How can I install cm7? Or is there any other "room" like for my Droid incredible (skyraider, cm7, unrevoked, etc). How do I double booted? Any guide for noons?

Cm7 is the only rom worth installing. Check out this thread on how to install http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1030227

You rooted ? You could copy to data/app with permissions and then see if it runs?

Is anyone else having weird behaviour when making apps go full screen? Before it would work perfectly but now I've noticed in a few games it doesn't work properly (Odd screen tearing and muddled graphics are displayed).

File explorer such as es explorer (free to get in market) browse to where you have the adobe air apk and copy, browse to the /data partition (you have to go right out to the root of your phone) copy to /data/app and paste the apk, long hold, scroll to properties , then you will see a change button beside permissions , change to same as scree shot
In screenshot, then see if it works

(Q) cm10.1 kindle app with tts

Really excited about cm10.1 on the kfhd but my wife I fear has an understandable deal breaker, she lets the kindle read aloud to her using the tts ability in the kindle app but the play store kindle app does not have this ability...
Has anyone ported the app or does anyone know a work around other than stripping drm and using a second app?
Sent from my GT-P3110 using xda app-developers app
You can pull the .apk from the Kindle and install it on CM10.1, try to see if that will work. If you've got Hashcode's TWRP installed, make a backup of the ROM you're on, then use a file manager with root access to go into the /system folder, copy the .apk and move the copy to /sdcard, then transfer it to your computer. After you load CM10.1, move the .apk to the tablet again and install it. If it works, you're good to go. If it doesn't, and you're not happy, boot into recovery and restore the backup, and you'll be back to where you were before CM10.1.

Changing fonts?

Hello fellow AHD users! I was wondering if there were any way to change fonts on this phone? I've used quite a few apps from the play store, but they all end in a soft brick. I'm running on Carbon 4.3 nightly. Thanks

Also, this was meant for Q&A if someone feels the need to move it. Sorry about that.
Sent from my MB886 using xda app-developers app
There are a few on the clockworkmod application that I like, you can download those and flash them via recovery. Other than that, try "iFont" on Google Play.
Ifont works good.

Nexus_5 Bootanimation w/ Powered by Android

I modified the boot animation modded/ created here http://forum.xda-developers.com/google-nexus-5/themes-apps/-t2697912 to fit our resolution.
I really like it so I thought I would share with everyone else. Thanks to sgosiaco for allowing me to modify it and share it. This is not a flashable zip, you need to install it with a root file manager.
Edit: I fixed the zip so it should work now.

I already used this one on my AHD about 1 month ago and love it too but mine dont have the text at the bottom and I think it's more beautiful
Yea this one has the powered by android in it that's what I was looking for. Resolution was so high I couldn't see it so I reformatted the images to work with smaller screens.
Edit: I modified the subject to include the change to the animation.
But WHY THE RUM??!!!
Is not a flashable zip or am I missing something? Tried flashing in recovery. Did not work.

Not sure why, it works great for me. I've flashed a few roms since making this and I drop it in system/media replacing the one from the rom and it works. I usually forget to change permissions. Did you remeber to rename it to bootanimation.zip? I put a name in front of all the boot animations I use to remember which one is which.
