May be just me, but I just downloaded the latest 4.3 update to the dolphin browser and it broke pinch to zoom on my nook color.
Just a heads up to those of you running dolphin.
Downgraded to the 4.2 version at this site:

Yep same problem here

Thanks for posting this. Worked great. It was killing me trying to browse the web without pinch to zoom.
Just updated and it broke. Huge thanks for the link! Samsung nexus s as noted above version works.
Restored v4.2 from Titanium Backup. Gotta love that app!

You guys should read the release notes. It says nook color useres don't download as it breaks the pinch zoom.
I didn't notice it in the release notes, whoops.
However, they provide this handy link to 4.2 to downgrade!

I don't think that was there when the update was first pushed to the market. I'm pretty good about reading the change log before updating. I bet that the note was added after the problem was discovered.

I downloaded the 4.2 apk from the above link, and tried to install it from the download directory. I got an error saying that installing downloaded apps isn't supported. So I tried to copy it to the dolphin directory, but I couldn't find it under /system/apps. What's the dorectory for dolphin called, and if I copy the file there, will it install?
I miss my pinch to zoom!

Go into the nook color tools, turn on "allow non-market apps" install with astro adb or what ever you method of choice is.
Knew I could count on xda to find the fix for this

make this browser default
I have my nook rooted and am not using a launcher pretty much stock with tons of apps loaded. when I click the quick launcher semi circle on the bottom of the screen I would like this browser to be the default one that opens when I hit "web" has anyone tried this or even cares. I use root explorer and have tried all different ways to successfully do this with no sucess.
Get thee to the marketplace and search for "Default Browser Selector". Works for me!
But the release notes a re a little ctyptic. It says, "not to upgrade for pinch problems" which could be read as not to upgrade to FIX a problem. Not because it causes a problem.

Wondering if anyone else is seeing this problem. This is with the stock Android Froyo Gallery. It is by far the smoothest gallery available and runs like a dream when it works, however, I have found that now it goes back to the folders listing whenever I rotate the nook to change from portrait to landscape.
Same here 1.1

Figured it out. There are a couple different APK's out there. check yours and find the other one that has a different file size. the one called FROYO will not work.
Can u attached it here?

I know this is an old thread but for anybody having problems I've not had any issues with this .apk running on my autonootered 1.1 nook color.
droidforums.net/forum/droix-x-hacks/62876-froyo-3d-gallery-droid-x. html
I installed directly with root explorer and noted that app didn't show in the launcher until after restarting (I'm using stock launcher). I'm currently running this gallery side by side with the stock one as well with no issues.
Hope this helps somebody. This gallery is a hell of a lot better than the stock one for sure!! I'm just to lazy to completely replace the stock one lol.

I've installed the memo app and it does work however there is a lot of force close.
More specifically, at every instance the app returns to the main screen after reading or creating a memo.

Because, for some reason, the facebook login will fail and give you a "please try again later" message. Does "Facebook for Android" App from Market work on your SGT 10.1?
The Facebook 1.6 apk floating around works fine on my tab

I downloaded Facebook from the market and it works just fine. I probably downloaded it the day the retail unit came out or possibly the day after. I have updated it to the latest version too.
Hey guys, just wanted to let you know I got android market to work on my nook tablet. Don't know if anyone else was able to yet. I pulled market apk off of droid charge and pushed it to nook, installed and it let me enter user info. I will post screen shot in a minute.
UPDATE:
Added photo and APK I used
UPDATE 2:
Upon attempting to download anything from market app forces closes, will not open again.

I tried to download NoLED for example and it forced closed. Is anyone else having this issue?
mine just closes when it asks me to add an account. I wonder if its because ive tried to install the market previosly....

I spoke too soon, it launches but force closes.
It is now force closing on me, on the plus side if I access android market from computer it now lists Nook Tablet as one of my devices.
I got it to run once, then it force closed when i tried to download something. Now it force closes on Start.
It also crashes for me when I try to install or update an app. I wonder if this has to do with the same storage issue Amazon Market had before I installed an SD card. Before installing an SD card, Amazon Market refused to install anything. It appears that Android Market might prefer to crash.
Op, can you change the title of the thread? I don't want to lead any one on.
Thanks for the effort tho, we shall keep trying.
Title changed =( Man I was so excited for a minute.
Looks like it quits on start because its still trying to download what ever app you last selected.
Does android generate an error report when apps force close? If so perhaos we could pull that and alter android market apk to work around issue. Just a thought.

Right guys. I had this issue on my D255 netbook when installing it. I'm trying to remember the solution, but if I'm right your logs should complain about a problem with download manager?

Hey all,
For some reason I can't seem to figure out how to copy/paste text on the NT. Long pressing does nothing and I don't think such an app exists.
Anyone have any tips or solutions?
Thanks!

the only thing i can suggest is using opera mobile as a browser. its working in there at least.
There is no native copy/paste feature in the tablet. You'll have to download an alternative browser or somesuch to do that. Its quite annoying tbh
Not the answer you wanted.

Hi, I can only cut and paste in to apps that have code for cut and paste on the NT. On the NC, with cm7 it is not an issue. I have been using Everywhere Clipboard lite, aNdclip Free and Copy Paste It trial.
ALL only work with apps that have code for cut and paste written into them.
Not sure what apk is blocking this or where to look for a solution.
Unable to paste, even thou it is in the clipboard. used opera mobile to copy url.

Thanks for answering. I understand what you say, since I run cm7 on my NC.
It is just frustrating on the NT. But I have been able to work around cut and paste issues.
I've found a way to enable copy and paste - instructions and video at forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1534757. Requires root.
XScope browser with adobe flash support. Uninstall any version of adobe flash before you install and you will get a popup to link to xda thread with modded flash apk. It has tabbed browsing and the pages stack within the tab, swype to left to go to previous pages without having to reload them.
Edit.. If you have flash player 11 on your phone already you are good to go. The link in browser is because you can't download flash on jb. Sorry for not doing my homework beforehand.
Thanks. Xscope is my favorite browser, but i haven't bothered to install it yet on JB because I've been flashing with full wipes so much lately. Appreciate the tip.
