I have a rooted stock with GAPPS+Extras+Locations. It worked perfectly. The biggest reason I rooted is because I got the error when I would connect to the internet where it required me to agree to terms, put in a username or just confirm anything. So, I would switch the the Android Launcher, use the browser and connect to the internet without a problem.
Now, due to the update 2.10? It removed the original nook browser, which I used in the other launcher and now nothing will connect me to the net. How can I fix this? The specific error is called: 405
The original nook browser is still there, you just need to activate it in your profile. Tap your name at the top of the screen and select edit profile, then manage content, then apps. Then put a check mark in browser.

It still wants me to use Google Chrome and when I unchecked it it still says "Application not found" for the original browser So that didn't work? Unchecked the browser, so now what

The 2.1.0 update may have replaced the android browser with Chrome. So I don't know how to help you. Maybe someone else does.

To get it to work like it did before, would it be better just to root it for CM10? ? I really liked the interface but i cannot connect to wifi

I just updated my NOOK app and it does not run. I have tried uninstalling and reinstalling with the same result. Anyone else gotten the updated nook app that came out today running under CM7?
EDIT: Never mind. I cleared Data and then it was able to run. . . It does require a complete reload of all of your books due to a new architecture. . . so bear that in mind. . .
Hopefully this addresses the general crappy performance the old nook app had under cm7. I swear every other app I use works flawlessly. The old nook app constantly forced closes, is very insensitive to touches, and just plain old sucks. Eventually when you got it to load a book it is pretty stable but will still lose your spot every so often.
It drove me to set up dual boot stock/cm7. I am booting back to CM7 now to test the new version out!

agreed, not really impressed with the nook app, it does work though (newest update). irritates the hell out of me when it loses my place, i've found that the bookmark feature seems to work if I can remember to use it lol.
The only reason I use the Nook app is to show off to my little niece about the page-flip feature, that's all.
I read .epub using either Cool Reader or Aldiko while using Adobe Reader for .pdf.
How did you install the the 2.7 update? While the nook app shows up in the Market, there is no option to install or update. When I go to the web based Market interface, it claims that the nook app is not compatible with my CM7 Nook Color. I've tried the usual fixes like editing the build.prop file for screen density (160/161) and also to make the device/manufacturer appear to be HTC. No luck. I found a 2.6 apk that works fine, but have yet to find a 2.7 apk outside the Market. Any assistance would be appreciated.

Uninstall the market update and you can search it and it will have a download button.
I wish the nook app supported the "read to me" books that I bought and now can't use unless I put stock back on my nook. I'd like to also be able to read them on my phone or another tablet.

I am running into the same issue with Phiremod'd 6.3 and the B&N android app.
However in my case, once uninstalled (original was corrupt and would not work), returning to the Android Marketplace and selecting the app does not bring up a download button. Gives me all the info about the application, but no app download or uninstall.
Any thoughts as to why this is happening? If it were windows, I'd say there was a registry setting left that was making the system think the app was still installed...

I have a quick question: is it possible to lock the old market down so it doesn't auto-upgrade. Every now and then, out of the blue, I fire up the market only to find that the app has updated. I can then stop the Market and uninstall updates. But it's a pain in the a$$ to do that over and over and over...
Uninstall the market updater app. (I used Titanium Backup for that.)
I cant seem to find a way to back out of screens that don't have back arrow. Most apps/screens have a back arrow that I can ack out of of to return to where I was. However, not all screens have this and I don't know how to back out of them. On my Nook Tablet, I could swipe from right to left on the lower screen to back out of these windows but this gesture doesn't appear to work on my new Nook HD+.
One example is in File Explorer ES. When I load File Explorer, go to App Manager and then pull up a particular app, it's details screen comes up. From there, I have no idea how to back out of that screen. I can press the Home button and get back to Home and go to other apps but, if I try to go back to File Explorer, it's still stuck on that same screen, and I'm assuming it will be until I find some way to back out of it.
I've searched online and haven't had any luck finding any help with this one.
Anyone have any ideas?
Thanks.

Once again, thank you very much leapinlar. I really appreciate your assistance. I will definitely check out this app. Hopefully this won't be one of the apps that sends the rooted Nook HD+ into the 8 reboot tailspin of death.

It doesn't. But if you ever have that problem and you have backed up your device with my cwm (you have, haven't you?), then you can temporarily turn off the device while it is bootlooping and insert the CWM card and let it boot to that. Then you can restore, fixing the problem. I did not say in my thread, but it is a good idea to periodically back up the device before you make major changes so you don't have redo a lot of stuff after you restore.
I think I will add this advice to my thread.

That would be a cool app if it worked properly. It hides the bar nicely, but does not let you bring it back without a reboot. At least on my rooted stock HD.

The same problem for me.
It seems trivial but not being able to exit nook apps such as "reader" is keeping me from using them. I currently use coolreader for that very reason. I acually think the default font and formatting is superior in the nook reader.
My nook HD automatically updated to 2.0.6. However, my web browser disappear after update, as well as several applications. I use Apex launcher, which is my default home screen. However, on my NOOK home, all the application icons disappear. I can still see most of the applications under settings/applications, but they will never show on my NOOK home application window. Besides web browser, my NETFLIX has also disappeared. I tried go to SHOP and reload the NETFLIX, and it showed failed because it said that I already purchased this application. Now I can not use NETFLIX.
I find a kidsBrowser icon under my APEX application window and I tried to open it, and it showed that I don't have permission to open browser. To be able to use internet, I went to NOOK SHOP and installed the Dolphin Browser because it is free. It works perfectly and I prefer this better than the NOOK browser, Now on my NOOK APPS screen, there are only 2 icons: "Dolphin Browser" and "Settings". Very strange.

How?
For example. My NETFLIX is gone, I can not find it on my NOOK, and I can not reinstall it. I even tried using APEX launcher to find it from past activity. I did successfully add the icon back to my APEX home screen, but I can not open it because it showed that the NEXFLIX is not installed.
Go into settings. Deregister device. Then re-register it

Thank you very much. It works.
When I first power up the device I can see the the dialogue window apps gve you when one is asking for permissions as it installs. It is then covered up by the nook 'desktop'
is there any way I can identify / force this process to the front so I can see what it is ? its 2.0.6 rooted with cwm.
thanks
I'm not sure what it is, but if you flashed the location services zip, it could be that dialog box asking for permission to use location services. But my experience is that only tries once and, if not acted on, does not come up again.

I know adblock plus is for Firefox, but be careful if it is asking for permission to write to /system.

I'm on the latest update. Google Earth starts up but then crashes.
Does it work for any of you?
Same here... just got one for my wife for mothers day (after confirming that Google Play store worked on mine when updated) and we have found that anything requiring gps or location access does not work or is "not compatible" with our devices. Google Earth, Google Maps, Fandango, Weather Channel, and countless others.
It is a shame, because I love the hd+, but hers is going right back if she can't get the first two apps she wanted.
Any ideas to keep it stock and fix the location problem?

Yes, go to my HD/HD+ CWM thread linked in my signature and make a CWM bootable SD and flash my extras zip. It adds GPS permissions so those apps show as compatible.

Make sure you have the latest version of extras. I updated it to add GPS permissions.
Sent from my Nook HD+ running CM10.1 on emmc.
I just reflashed with the 5/6 Extra. Google Earth works except when I ask it to locate me and it then closes. Other apps do the locate like Google Maps and streetview. It is not a problem for me, just a note for you.
And a big thanks for all your work on the Nook HD series.
@leapinlar
Isn't the 'extra' zip only for the stock ROM? I'm running into the same crashing with Earth in CM, and am wondering if there's any downside to having enabled GPS permission bundled into CM. If need to, we can use a fake-GPS app.

Yes, extras is for stock only. CM10.1 already has the GPS permissions XML in it. You could try removing it and see if that helps with Earth (or just comment out the GPS line in the file). It is in /etc/permissions.
