I just installed CM 10.1 onto my Nook HD+. Pretty much everything works great.
However, I have a problem with the multiple users. I am able to create a second user, and switch between the two, install apps on either one, etc. But for some reason, I am not able to access the settings in my created user. Whenever I do, I get the message "Unfortunately, settings has stopped working". I can open the settings fine in my owner user account, but not on a created account.
Anyone else have this problem or have any ideas on how to fix it?
EDIT: I believe this may be related to the second user not having root access. How do I enable root access for the second user if I can't access the settings?

So, bought a nook color yesterday. It came loaded with 1.2, and the first thing I did after registering is root. No custom ROM, but have superruser and official Android Market access. I can even install a few apps. However, there are a few that I expected to see (Kindle, Astro in particular) that dont show up via a specific search for them in the Market. Did I do something wrong? Did I somehow half-root this? Any thoughts would be appreciated!
There are issues with the market after rooting. One of the devs seems to have finally figured it out (apparently it's been quite a ***** to sort out), but he's validating it before publishing it.
Same problem
I have the same problem with the market place. Where will the fix be posted?
After manual rooting Calendar issues
After doing the manual root the one application that seems to be the trouble for me is Calendar. The Google Calendar does not allow to add an account calendar to use. I have tried several other applications with no luck either. One indicates there is a issue synch information.
Then the other minor issue is within the Market has been fun. While in the Market it will decide to either go back a screen, go to the main area of the Market or exit completely out of the Market. That created issue when I was in the middle of downloading an application.
Any suggestions? The Calendar is more important but it would be nice to get both issues resolved.
This worked great for me.

The Calendar issue was resolved with CalenGoo. It is able to synch and update information.
Market is getting better with the steps.
Let the fun begin.

Someone may help me out with this annoying problem...
I bought a Nexus 7 32GB grouper recently. Installed the most recent CyanogenMod nightly and setup my account. All running fine and happiness takes place.
Now, my girlfriend arrived from a trip overseas and i wanted to give her a second account on my N7. On a fresh nightly this is working out well, but when i have my full configured account, her account keeps showing a blank screen with all apps in it FCing. Is this related to any root apps or something? Do i have to use supersu? I configured superuser to have root access from all user accounts and deleted all my beloved root apps, but her account keeps crashing completely! I found no solution on Google.
Any Suggestions? I bought the N7 to drive it with CM =( The stock rom is simply boring if you used CM for years...
EDIT: Solved! It is the Theme Manager that goes mad if the first account changes the theme. Cheers, i will send a bug report to CM.
I've tried two clean installs of milaq's 10.2 nightly (the latest two)... with the correct gapp version (and tried others), but I get a no connection error when trying to access the Play store and syncing isn't working. I seemingly successfully added my google account with 2-step verification and everything.
I'm connected to wifi and can surf the web just fine. Just before this I was on some CM9 nightly and everything worked fine. This is frustrating and time-wasting. Any ideas?
I just did another clean install using the recommended install package (10.1) from the easy install guide. Same exact issue. Dunno what the heck is going on.
UGH, I figured it out. So stupid, so lame. The touchpad thought I'd entered the right password for my google account, I thought I'd entered the right password for my google account, in fact I HAD entered the right password.
But it didn't work for whatever reason (and didn't tell me the password wasn't working). I had to create an application-specific password in google account settings and input THAT password. Now it works. And I wasted too many hours.
I had exactly the same issue yesterday. It was the right password (I re-installed Android TWICE). Seems that the authentication DOES require a 'one off' password to be added to your google account security, which worked fine for me. Two factor auth has worked fine for me before. Maybe someone needs to make a note of this on the relevant ROM pages. This was CM10.2 20140303 I installed to (and I asked this question on pafe 83 I think).

noob can't use play store
Hi all, I am having the same problem. Could you please explain in noob terms how u resolved this issue? What is one off??? And how do you set an application specific password in google settings?
If your logged into google.com visit: https://www.google.com/settings/security
You then have the options for "App Passwords".
Give it a name (I just used touchpad), doesn't matter. Click generate, and it'll make you a password you will only see once.
Use that password to login to the touchpad. I had to remove my account in settings, and re add it, using this password instead of my usual.
Pain in the bum two factor not working anymore, but at least it works.
I could use some help setting up a secondary user profile for my tablet.
I recently bought the $50 Fire tablet. I immediately used RootJunky's batch files to install the Play Store, remove lock screen ads, disable OTA updates, root, and replace the stock launcher. I then logged into my Amazon account to set up the main user profile. I removed a bunch of Amazon bloat and the tablet is working perfectly as a proper Android tablet.
I ran into trouble, however, when I tried to set up a second user profile for my wife. She logged in using her Amazon credentials and went through the standard set up processes. After finishing all that, the lock screen showed up, she swiped up, and nothing. No launcher or anything. Just the home screen wallpaper.
While logged into her profile, I tried re-running RootJunky's Play Store install batch file. I got errors, though, telling me all of those files were already installed on the device.
Navigating through the settings, I managed to get into the Amazon app store and install OneDrive. From there I was able to install some APKs. I managed to install Nova Launcher so she has a working launcher. I also installed the Play Store. The Play Store, however, wouldn't open. It just flashed a white screen and then shut down. After installing the Google Login Service it now prompts to enter Google credentials to log in. After doing so, however, it says it couldn't connect to Google's servers. I am unable to install either the Google Play Services APK or the Google Services Framework APK. After not being able to install them from OneDrive, I downloaded them to internal storage and they wouldn't install from there, either.
I have confirmed that she has root access. I have Root Browser installed to her profile and can access the entire device storage.
Can anyone help me out? Something tells me there's a simple solution here, since the device is rooted and all of the programs/services necessary for logging into a Google account are already installed on the device. Would locating the necessary files and copying them to system work?
Any help would be appreciated. Thanks.

I think you should re-enable temporarily the stock launcher, that might be your problem. Then, you can set up another launcher and re-hide the stock one.

Thanks for the response.
The launcher isn't the problem. I managed to get Nova Launcher installed on the secondary profile, so I do currently have a working launcher.
The problem is that I can't get logged into a Google account, therefore I can't get into the Google Play Store. That's the problem I'm trying to solve. And as I mentioned originally, the Play Store and other Google apps are working just fine on the primary user profile.
If anyone has any ideas I'd love to hear them. Thanks.
So I’ve discovered when trying to use apps that use the display over app function crash instantly and I can’t find anything else where online. Does anyone else have this problem? Any suggestions would be great thanks I don’t want to return the phone but I use some of these apps for work.
What apps? Because some time ago Google made changes to how this works and apps must ask user to grant them permission to draw over other apps.
When upgraded to a newer version of Android, permission was not removed for already installed apps. But on new device, you most likely have to grant this permission after reinstalling your apps (and if you used old apps that do not check it this permission is granted, they will crash when trying to use it).
You can manage this permission in Settings > Apps > Special access (I other language on the phone, so can't say what exactly this section is called in English)
So I'm using octopus for customer keyboard mapping for some of my work apps. But I also have modded among us for custom servers and both apps crash even tho I'm granted permission.
