I've been trying to find information on how to get Zinio working on my NST. I have googled and looked everywhere for information on this. Does anyone have it working out there? I've tried to download Gingerbread versions of Zinio, but they don't seem to work. Am I missing something, or am I just out of luck?
The Zinio website states that the Android app is not compatible with the "Nook device". Presumably they mean one of the tablet forms, so if it won't run on those, it certainly won't run on the NST.
rooted

thanks for your reply. However, Zinio is compatible with rooted nook devices. I have a nook color and a Nook Tablet both of which have been running Zinio just fine. My question is about gingerbread compatibility with Zinio. I wonder if anybody has experience with that. Since my nook simpletouch is rooted, I thought it might be a possibility. the website is accurate about non rooted devices, but not rooted ones.
Gingerbread compatibility seems irrelevant, our NST isn't even close, we're running 2.1 Eclair.

Ok. So I got it wrong. How about an eclair version?

Can you elaborate a bit more, please? What version of Dolphin HD are you running? How did you access the apps tab from there?
Which image did you use for rooting?
The new Nooter image (2.12.15 released 14/Dec/2010) does all of these things for you. If you re-read the isntructions on Nook Devs you will see this spelled out for you.........
Interesting. The page must have been updated after I rooted. Very good tablet fr the price. May just reyurn my galaxy tab.

So are you saying that you actually used the new auto-nooter-2.12.15? And that you didn't sign into YouTube, then sync Gmail before firing up the Market?
I don't think I used the new version after all. I certainly did not follow the new steps. I had an existing account from my tab somaybe that made the difference. If there is any wayto tell which autonooter I am usingg I can check that. It was very sttage because at first I got an error message when connecting to marketplace directly but I was ableto getthere jsing the apps link from dolphin hd.

Does anyone know how to get either of these working?
have you tried it? i have a license from my old windows phone that i put on my galaxy s a while back, it was as easy as installing the apk and then registering with my existing key.
I have tried Copilot several times. Not loading
I am trying this on a XOOM.
Copilot will not load
iGO works, but the highest resolution is 800x400 so the nav screen is small. I am using the moto higher resolution version 8.4.2.
I called ALK yesterday. Their support staff told me that they weren't aware oof any device that had Honeycomb. They have not, yet, started testing.
How can you be a developer for Android, and not have Honeycomb to test with?
The tech checked with his manager. They NEVER heard of the Motorola XOOM!!!!!
Scary

Do you have the name of that person? What they told you is completely inaccurate.

Lets just leave it at "100%" not true.
Any more information you can remember about the call would be helpful.
How did you guys get CoPilot? It only shows up in the web android market and says that it's not compatible with Xoom?
I sideloaded it.had it on my phone beforehand

Does it scale well with the Xoom sideloaded?
Hmmm. I installed on my EVO so I can sideload. How do I find the apk on my EVO? I downloaded Astro and did a search and nothing came up.
As you know, Nook owner who are not in USA are unable to run Google Navigator.
Now, with Ownhere, google navigator is available to all android users anywhere round the world.
Anyone has it working in your Nook?
I tried but unsuccessful installation in my Nook.
Help appreciated.
If im not mistaken the nook doesn't have gps?
Sent from my SCH-I500 using XDA Premium App
No, it doesn't, but there's an app called TetherGPS that lets you use the GPS from your phone, or you can get a bluetooth GPS device.
I was saving this link to try it one of these days after I had my SC card issues worked out:

There was a free App on that came out on the Amazon App store that i wanted but for some reason I would get an error message says my device was not compatible. So i went to the website and click on the free App, the site told me to go on my android device to start downloading it. Went back on the Amazon App store on my nook and it notified me there was an "Update". Click on it and the App auto installed and worked perfectly fine.
What app were you getting the error on and what ROM are you running? I have "bought" just about every free app Amazon has offered and I haven't seen any incompatibility checks yet. I am running CM7 recent nightlies. I always "buy" from the app not the web.
Any chance you are running rooted stock?
I've seen this before as well - peggle I think. Like the op says you can still "buy" the app from the web site even if your device is blacklisted.

Bought Peggle from the site, but still doesn't show up on the app, as far as I can tell there's no way to download it. Shame.
EDIT: The app store first told me the game was incompatable and wouldn't download, but then a few minutes later it asked me to install it. Works great.

That probably explains a lot of your problem. IIRC, Amazon's compatibility check is based mostly on the version of the OS you're running. You've probably been running into apps that the developer wrote for Gingerbread instead of your Froyo. That's not to say they don't work (mostly) on Froyo, just that the developer either didn't /couldn't test his app on Froyo or knows of some small bugs associated with Froyo.
As you've discovered, it is possible to circumvent the compatibility check and run the app. Just don't be surprised if the developer chooses to not support the app on your Nook if you run into problems down the line.
I just flashed the newest CM11 build yesterday on my HD+. Its running great and many thanks for the threads on getting it done as painlessly as possible. I do have a question and not sure if there is a workaround.
Google Play still sees the device as a stock HD+. That means it still thinks I am running Android 2.2 Nook OS so a lot apps are "not compatible with your device". I hoped that one perk of upgrading to 4.4 was that I could now get the latest and greatest apps and other features that only work on the higher OS levels.
Any way to fix this? What I dont understand is that I have an old HP Touchpad running Tenderloin and it shows up as "unknown maker" cm-tenderloin device. When I updated the HD+ I went through the process of logging into my accounts just like any other droid device.
Thanks for any help.
There is not much you can do. Even when other users manually edit the build.prop file to change it to another device, Play Store still does not show many more apps compatible. That is because Play Store looks at more properties that name. It looks at screen size, density and whether it has a camera, GPS, etc.
What you need to do is enable unknown sources and either use another store like Amazon.com or get the apk file from another device and install it manually.

Thanks for the tip. I will try the unknown source route.
I don't see why it's still recognizing yours as 2.2 though. Before installing the 4.4.4 KITKAT OS, Instagram and iHeartRadio were deemed incompatible with my device. However, once I installed the new OS, they installed and ran flawlessly even without features such as a camera. Then again I AM using the HD instead of the HD+ so maybe that has something to do with it?

He is mistaken on that. It does see it as 4.4, he just assumed that was the problem.
