Hello,
just a beginner with Android and a happy owner of an archos 101 with froyo running, I discovered some strange behavior of the system. For the very first time I installed PocketCloud (but never used it) and a lot of other apps. I had also the patch for accces to the goole market applied. But I did not root the archos (don´t know how...)
Few days later the archos crashed and I had to reinstall the system (from the systemmenu).
With the app "app 2 SD" I moved some apps to SD.
Now some apps I could not not install or update, e.g. dolphin HD, world newspaper, MyPiano and PocketCloud.
Searching some forums I tried not to move some apps to SD (so redo) - that worked for MyPiano: I could update. Also for Dolphin HD.
But I cannot install PocketCloud . Now I am looking for a solution, because I think it is a very usefull app and convenient to access my multimedia PC via tablet in my local network.
Any suggestion what I should try?
Check this post (I don't want to take credit for Lolo's typing). It is how to do the "Market Fix". This is a pretty standard fix for Android.

I use pocketcloud on a regular basis. It works fine, BUT it does not work with Zeam running....
Google Sky Maps is one that does not work for me.
I've tried more than once installing/uninstalling and still, nothing.
Yeah I'm trying to get the Polaroid Bluetooth POGO printer apk to work but its a no go an forget about sideloading it fails and when I download it from the market I get Installation error -17 wtf is error -17 I have no idea and apparently neither does google
I rooted the NT and installed the Amazon Kindle app just fine.
It runs okay, but I cannot add any books to my device. It'll say it's downloading my device but it never shows up. Attempting a sync fails with "Sync failed. Please try again later." Yes, I'm signed in and connected to WiFi.
Has anyone gotten this working?

Works for me, i install the Kindle app directly from the google market. I was able sign-in, bring up all the books I brought, and is able to read them. So try reinstall your kindle app.
By the way, accidentally click thanks instead of reply, so looks like you got your "tx" hehe.
Okay I reinstalled it, went to re-download Sherlock Holmes... it said I already had it, but it doesn't show up in my list. I clicked "Read It Now" on the store page and it opened the book, but it says "Downloading Interrupted" even though it's at 100%. Only buttons are resume/cancel and neither resolve the issue.
I always get "Sync failed" still too.

Is your NT rooted? Also after download, have you try restarting your NT?
Yeah it's been rooted since day 1, and I've restarted it multiple times.
Did you install the Kindle app from the Google market or the Amazon app store? Just curious. It might matter, I suppose.
Installed via Google Market, which should work since it works for gordon1hd1...

Do you insert an microSD card into the NT? I know that some app won't work without a microSD (Dropbox being one of them). I put an 16GB mSD card into my NT since the first day i got it.
I haven't, I wasn't planning on buying a microSD quite yet.
Any chance you could use a file manager to see if you can find where your books are? This might be the cause after all, I wish the app would actually report why it's getting errors.

I am not at home, so i can't check my NT, but on my Samsung Galaxy S2, the kindle files are stored on /mnt/sdcard/kindle folder.
So i think that is your problem.
For whatever it may be worth, the Kindle app works fine on my non-rooted NT. I do have a microSD card in the slot.
The kindle app works on my nook but it looks like u have to read those books via that application.

Yep, it's the only app that officially decodes their drm. You can transfer those files off and remove the drm (don't ask me how ;P) and import it into another reader though (or convert it around with calibre - great ebook manager software; I definitely recommend it for managing your collection and conversions).
A lot of things won't work properly, save properly, or download correctly if you don't have an SD card inserted into an NT (or NC, afaik), so it's definitely a requirement (@OP) and will be useful for a lot of other programs as well.
I just experience this and I wonder if any one else has had this happen. I tried to read a book I already downloaded to the Kindle app and the app refused to open it. I investigated and found that the Amazon app store and Nook app were experiencing the same thing. The rest of the apps I have seem to be fine as long as they where not loaded from the Amazon app store. Just recently the stock browser has started saying that well known sites such as Google and Amazon have certificate errors. I tried to download and reinstall the Amazon app store app and found I couldn't. It wasn't Amazon this time since I could download it on a PC and slide it to the tablet. It still would not work correctly. I am running stock 4349.
The only problem I am having is logging into my amazon app store through the programs app. I can login to the Amazon mp3 app fine. Also can login to webpage for amazon app Page... JUST not the app login. Frustrating because apps I bought through them require the functional login to be correct.
Anyone know of a solution?
I am running rooted, verizon version of artic. Just updated to 2.3.3. Just to point out, 2.3.1 also failed similar fashion.
Oh and bluetoith doesn't reboot device... So things are looking good. Who ever is working on this tonight, nice job!
BN now has the Nook Reader App 4.0 on the Play Store. It even runs Kids books just like the stock reader. But Play Store shows it as incompatible with the Nook HD/HD+. It does run fine, just Play Store will not allow it to be installed so that it cannot be installed on the stock software and interfere with the stock version. The solution is to manually install the apk file to CM yourself. I have uploaded the apk file to my Dev-Host server account here:

Thank you for sharing.
Edit: will not actually load any of my side loaded content. Sees it. Let me add to library, but won't let me open any of it. Alidko opened them fine.
This app was eating my processor time and battery, slowing down my device. I finally traced it to the nook service trying to keep me informed of things. I was able to fix it by going to settings, apps, and selecting the nook reader app. There I unchecked the show notifications box and all was well.
Edit: well spoke too soon. All was well because I force stopped the app also. As soon as I opened the app again that service started to eat me again. May need to go back to prior version which I had archived.
Edit2: I think I found the problem. First, I uninstalled and reinstalled the 4.0 app. That fixed my inability to see my sideloaded books. Second, I went to settings and in downloads unchecked both newspapers and magazines for automatic downloads. I subscribe to a magazine and the service was automatically downloading a new issue. That is what was eating my processor. All ok now. I love how the new version displays the magazines.
