Firstly I am on Dev Rom 6.12.29 (I am trying to unlock and I keep getting the "can't verify device error").
For whatever reason weblinks automatically open in the stock browser.
When I try to clear defaults in the app section the option is greyed out as if the stock browser is not even set as default.
Any ideas how to change this?

This may work,more of a work-around than a fix (if one isn't available):
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.aboutmycode.betteropenwith&hl=en
When initially prompted to choose a default,select "Better Open With".
Afterwards,you should get the typical options of apps available & not locked into a default app.

Do you have another browser installed? Sorry had to ask if the power is plugged in.
Then,
Settings -> Installed Apps -> Defaults -> Browser -> ?? Choose that browser?
does any other browsers show up? If not, I suggest uninstalling Chrome, if that's your app, then going into defaults click on the system browser, then reinstall chrome, and then go back and choose that Chrome in that settings.
See if that works.

So I flashed the zip asop provided for the new market then I instantly got a force close error when I started my phone. So I used root explorer to delete the apk. I flashed the old gapps back. But I'm STILL getting the force close error and my market won't open. I thought flashing the old gapps would fix it but it didn't
I want to avoid nanding back.
Nevermind I found a fix.
Go into settings -> Applications -> Manage Applications -> All tab, scroll down and click on market, then hit clear data.
That should reset the market app, when you open it again it should review the terms and conditions.

Did you check your settings for the one that allows non-Marketplace apps to install?

Yes, you have to enable non-marketplace apps in the settings or else it wont allow any apps other than those downloaded directly from the android app store. Its under Settings - Applications - Unknown sources.
Trying unchecking it and then checking it again. That worked for me when i was on auto-nootered stock.
I was able to get past this message by checking and unchecking Allow Non-Market Apps and rebooting, but I also created a system/app directory on the sd card and put my apks in there, this may or may not be necessary as I am still experimenting. I also made sure USB Debugging, Allow Mock Locations and Auto Mount were checked under the Development panel in NookColor Tools.

Where exactly do you find Settings - Applications - Unknown sources on an autonooted 3.0 Nook Color? If I go into Settings from the stock launcher, there is no tab for Applications. If I go into NookColor Tools I see two panels for Settings - one is for GSM which is all greyed out and one just reproduces the stock settings page. There is also a Manage Applications panel, which just shows installed applications.
update; no love
Thanks for the suggestions, but nothing's worked.
I have checked "Allow Non-Market Apps" under NookColor Tools (it was always checked). Interestingly, I am basically not able to uncheck this setting. I can uncheck it, but when I navigate away (or reboot) and then return to NookColor Tools, the box is checked (even though I unchecked it before).
I also made an /sdcard/system/app directory and confirmed that "USB debugging" and "Allow mock locations" are checked under settings>development.
No luck. When I try to install apps from the amazon store etc., I get the same error message: "Install blocked. Installation of download apks is not supported."
Thanks.

Try unchecking... then checking it again... without navigating away... then reboot (not really necessary)... and try it again.
Could it be that because it's a NC and the Apk is from Amazon?
If i were them, I'd make sure that my major comp didn't get the same love everyone else might get. i could be waaaaay off base tho.
I unchecked, and then immediately rechecked, without exiting NookColor Tools. I then rebooted, since the first time I did this without rebooting, I was still unable to install anything. I also found that I didn't need the dummy system folder on my sd card.

Here's my question to you. Do you have another Android device? If so try instaling it on that, if it doesn't work then you know it's the Apk file. And if it does then it might just be a compatible issue between Amazon and B&N.
Until you try everything, rule nothing out.
Swordsaint, I was expanding on my previous post for LanceNem's benefit.

Brothers,
Need ur help to enable power save for wifi ( hence running wifi make battery drain), also how i can stop automatic update service, each time i uninstall the new market its reinstalled again !! I hate it its so bad, also it take a lot of space of device memory.
with thx
Yea, it automatically updates the market and other google apps. WE can stop app form automatically updating by going to My apps and then choose a app and then deselecting the option Allow Automatic Updates --it can be done while installin apps too-- in description or similar. You can try it for market too. But, I don't think we can stop google from updating its system app.

The option allow automatic upgrading is available while installing an app from market.
Go to My Apps> Select a app> Uncheck Allow automatic updates.
I have attached images files if you want to see. Sorry for the zip file didn't have time to post image here.
It is good if you don't want other app to update automatically. Also, I searched for market but it is not there, think the OS manages system apps upgrade. You can search for if you want --may be you will find it.
All the best
Market app will install the update automaticly, no matter how many times you downgrade this app.
Maybe there is way to that, but i don't know how.
For other app, you can open the market app, then press menu button and select My Apps. Choose any apps that you don't want to automatic update, then uncheck the Allow Automatic Updating option.
Hope it help you out.
So here's my problem. I successfully flashed my Galaxy S GT-I9000 to ICS Infinitum but I have a problem. I tried installing apps which is root required but my phone says I need to root my phone in order to use that app but when I check, I have superuser access. I can't even see my sim contacts. And I tried disabling 2g but 3g won't come up. How will I fix this? I wanted to post this to Infinitum thread but system won't allow me because I'm a newbie. Please help
Go to recovery mode and wipe data and cache

EDIT: Thank you. I have my 3g working now And with the root problem, I went to superuser preferences and allow it always. Thanks dude! Is there a way to go back to my old gallery? I like the 3d gallery.
I had a bug on CM9 where Superuser permissions wouldn't pop up, going into superuser and changing the setting to automatically allow worked, but I don't recommend doing this for obvious security reasons.

Did you find something weird about the camera? I think mine is a little bit dark. And yes I know about that superuser permission. But the thing is, you wouldn't install that app if you don't want it to be allowed right? Of course you always allow those apps that you want to install that's why I set it to 'always allow'
EDIT: Is there a way to set my notification tone and ringing tone?
Funny. Can't even send a message. Can't add recipients. Tch
Make "Fix permissions" in the recovery.

Good to hear that is working now!=)
If you mean Android's stock gallery, I attach it. Download it to your sdcard.
Download File Manager (Rhytm Software).
Then open it-->settings-->scroll--->check root explorer-->click yes--->check Mount system folders.
Now copy that .apk to system/app and reboot.

I just want always choose browser app by myself！
Even when I go to chrome's app info page, and clear open by defaults, then when I go to configure apps page the browser app still set as chrome by system again.
The Browser app page show "Chrome (system default)"
I'm using OxygenOS 4.0.3 , Rooted , How can I fix it ?

On configure apps page you must choose the browser you want to use. If you only have chrome installed it will allways say chrome by default

Not sure it will work, but give it a try.
In developer options change webview to stock.
It sets to chrome when chrome is installed.
Maybe it. Will work
