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

[Q] Where to get stock launcher APK???

I really like the launcher APK used in the HD/HD+. Where could I get it? Or, could somebody get it for me? I don't have a nook HD, but want to use it's launcher. Thanks in advance.

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

Thank you but, I meant the STOCK home screen. I already know how to get trebuchet.

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.
Sent from my Nook HD+ running CM10 on Hybrid SD

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?

No. It is a waste of time anyway. You will never get it to work on CM.

[Q} 16GB HD+ lags on every ROM. Suggestions?

So my Nook HD+ lags on every ROM I've tried. Both Carbons, CM 10.2, and CM 10.1.3. I have the 6th revision of the Samsung eMMC. And I ask, any suggestions are to what I can do to eradicate or minimize lag? If you have any ideas as to why I'm getting so much lag, please let me know, as well. Thanks!

Ok. I know how to do that, but idk what that means/what it does. Could you explain please?

Instead of focusing on just the read speeds or the write speeds
It does both simultaneously

Will the processor be able to handle that?

Yes
It works on virtually any tired device
And the processor doesn't handle it
It's the kernel and the flash storage of the device

[Q] Nook HD+ cm10.1-10.2 tablet UI

Is It possible to set Tablet UI for this? I saw another thread where the answer was yes, but I don't have system after settings and I'm running cm10.2-20131228-NIGHTLY-ovation.

App to SD?

I want to move some apps to my SD on my rooted Nook HD but with all the app moving tools I just get errors like the path is the same as internal storage blah blah blah. Can anyone help with this?

You say you are rooted, but that can mean many things. Are you running rooted stock or are you running a version of cm?

Wow.. I feel stupid. I don't know what version, except that when I turn on the Nook, I get Cyanoboot screen.. I really should pay more attention to these things... ?

Maybe I'm using rooted stock.. All I did was flash some files from your thread.. I feel really dumb.
EDIT: I went into my downloads folder and found the file l flashed. It was your HD/HD+ universal root.
