Hi Guys,
I am trying to find Facebook and Twitter Application for NT.
Even though i have widget for both, i am looking for Application.
Can somebody help me with Apk..
Cheers!!!!
Im looking for this as well so I will be watching for an answer.
Thanks
Are you guys looking for THE Facebook app, because AFAIK, it does not work on the NT. I don't know about the official Twitter app. I use Tweetdeck (sideloaded from my phone).
I should have said the "roooted" NT
Try this for Facebook

you have to use an older version for it to work

No you don't, I have the latest versions of both and they're running flawlessly.
I'll post the apks in a sec.

I've attached the apks.
Flawless Victory! Facebook app works and Widget too! TY for this.
FYI: The newest versions of both apps work on the NT. The market just won't allow you to download them [another reason I'm returning this thing.] You need to sideload the apks.
even if you went with the KF, your stuck with 8GB without expansion....worse screen, more fragile, etc

Actually, I sideloaded those apks before I rooted, and they wouldn't work once I'd rooted. I went into the Market and replaced them with the Market versions and they work just fine.
@Torrential91
Did you lift the Twitter .apk from a rooted device and if so...what directory was it hiding in?
I spent 45 minutes this morning looking in my old Hero and couldn't find it. I came here to to get the treasure map and you have just delivered the treasure.
Thanks!
any idea where the Google+ .apk might be?

Thanks Torrential91 - downloaded and installed both. Facebook works great, twitter wouldn't install. Do you know if I need to edit the file name to remove the % etc?

@deralaand
I actually downloaded it from the internet, so no. Haha.
And for the twitter app, you shouldn't have to...but go ahead and try and let me know what happens.

EDIT: For those of you who are rooted, I just made a thread in this forum on how to install apps that aren't showing up in the marketplace. Maybe that will help as well.
I'm still getting FC's from the com.facebook.katana-2.apk.
Anyone else experiencing this/fixed it?

Are you trying to use it on a rooted NT? Which root did you use?
This time around I'm using the Snowball root.
Yeah, snowball-mod has some issues with Facebook and the XDA app... I'm looking into it now.
Hi,
I downloaded the apk via your link above from the browser on my rooted NT (basic root using Indirect's latest instructions), and the download completed. But when I select it (to install it) my Nook says "Cannot open file."
Any ideas?
Thanks!

Do not use the built-in file explorer. It was designed to prevent people from sideloading applications. Check out "ES File Explorer".

The Amazon Appstore works great on Cm7 just downloaded angry birds rio. Which is free for today!
It detects both my nook and my g2 just fine. and prices tend to be a little cheaper through amazon for apps.
if interested head over to amazon.com/appstore and get Rio it runs and looks great with no ads!
came to post this.
downloaded Rio with no problems. 1.0.1 auto-nootered, with the 1.1 pre-root
Running 1.1, auto-nooter 3.0...
I had to sideload this .apk to get it to install. Wouldn't install from the link.
But now it works, free Angry Birds!

Downloading from the link works. You need to move the .apk to your /system/app directory before you try to install it.
I also installed the Amazon App store and Angry Birds Rio. I'm also considering buying the original Angry Birds and Angry Birds Seasons to get rid of the ads! I hate in-app ads!!

Answering my own question:
1 - I went to http://amzn.to/getamazonappstore on desktop and download
Amazon_Appstore-release.apk
2- I moved the apk using dropbox from desktop to Nook and put it on root of SD card
3 - I installed with Apps Installer
4 - Sign in with your Amazon email and password
5 - Voila! enjoy
Get one app free daily! For today (3/22): Angry Birds Rio
Reported to work with CyanogenMod 7 as well...
maybe i'm missing something, but why would you want this on your NC? What does it offer that the market doesn't?
angry birds rio on honeycomb emmc
its crashing on me for honeycomb, already moved from sd to phone.
My nook is Autonooter 3.0 rooted.
I downloaded the Amazon apk file, put it on a sd card in the root, it copied. I inserted the card in my NC, opened Apps Installer and got this error:
Install blocked
Installation of downloads apks is not supported.
Any suggestions?

Mainly Competition, Lower prices and angry birds rio for free atm
Also sometimes the market says our nook isn't compatible with certain apps, while other markets like the amazon store will let us download the app just fine

Make sure you allow sideloading in your settings, settings-Applications-Check unknown sources

Go into your "NookColor Tools" in your app drawer. Uncheck/re-check "allow non-market apps". Then move the .apk to /system/app and try the install again.

Don't have "NookColor Tools". Can I dl it from the Market?
Was able to install market, but free apps fail to install. I get : Purchase Fail, and gives me a link to add shipping and credit card info.
2.1 Autonooter 1.1.0
Outside of US
Any ideas?
is that even possible? my friend wants to be able to video chat, so i pulled the latest gtalk apk from viper rom, but i just realized because her phone is not rooted, and she does not have write access to the system, so she cant install this over the one she has now? any feedback or workarounds would be greatly appreciated
(yes i already searched)

Have you tried just installing the apk itself using ES File Explorer or Astro? I am not too sure if that will actually work but I don't know why it wouldn't.

yeah it says application not installed. should i try signing it first?
I was able to install astro file manager via apk. I had to allow outside sites. I usd the package manager when prompted and open after install. I was able to see the system files but i tried to copy them to my sd card with no luck. This does not create a link on the shelf and i dont know how to launch it unless i reinstall from the downloads in the browser. I also attempted other apk some worked others did not. Not sure if this helps anyone I m not a developer just fooling around at Mc donalds playing with my new nook tablet. Maybe this info is already out their if so im sorry.
How about trying to install a launcher like Go Launcher? The Kindle Fire people have some type of success with Go Launcher.
Have you tried rebooting after installing to see if icons appear?
Sent from my DROIDX using XDA App
no but I will.
you'll need a launcher to be able to see your apps. The nook hasn't shown the BN installed apps and the user installed apps in the same place since 1.1.
Very interesting if Zeam or Go are installable. My memory is that the old BN app installer would not install non-BN apps.
I tried a reboot no luck. I Also tried to install the apps from the download location after reboot. I get a problem parsing the file. This could be because temporary internet cache is cleared after reboot not sure.
I have Go running right now on mine and it rebooted into it automatically. If I home button, it goes back to the Nook default UI and I haven't found a way to get back to Go yet.
same her go is running and my other installed apk's are showing up in the app menu
here are some bad pics of go launcher running on nook tablet
Here are some bad pics of go launcher running on nook. With installed apks in the app drawer.
I have File Expert, Market, G Books all installed as well as the Google services APK. Can't log into market yet. I'm a total n00b on this so if more experienced people have advice, let me know.
edit -
Nevermind.. must have been a bad file name or location.. i found another one and it works now.

Download the apk with your browser, then click on the notification in the bottom left, and install with package installer when it'd downloaded.

Yeah, I had done that.. I guess it just didn't like the file.. it was an attachment from here.
Thanks for the go launcher link.
Got the Google account info in via Youtube apk. Access to G+ works fine. Working on market now.

Market keeps force closing though the 2.3.6 market will stay open for a bit. In a twist of irony, the Amazon App store works perfect. Likely no more updates from me tonight.
Summary, download Go Launcher apk and install using Package Installer. Get a File management program, then go to town.
amazon appstore
I have installed amazon app store including all my free apps
from my account. plus opera web browser play on and kindle this rocks.
wave launcher
I have installed wave launcher and added go launcher this can help make up for moments when you need a home button and want to stay in go launcher. Hope this helps.
Is there anyway to get back to the page with "Install from unknown sources" again? I can't find a way of getting there through the settings, and I'm curious if it's even accessible otherwise.

I couldn't find a way. I hacked one of my test apps to launch it. Download the tgps_launcher, and hit "start".
http://comptonsoft.com/test/
I just found that double tapping the N button in Angry Birds will let you chose which launcher to use.
Now I can use ADW on this thing.
Is Kindle Reader app installable? That would make it worth it. Also are the apps all being installed in the 1gb or can they be installed in the BN partition?
I rooted my nook tablet with the SnowballMod root and everything is working fine, but some of the apps in the android market are missing. I have tried editing the build.prop file and clearing the market data and cache to spoof the market, but it still wont work. does anybody have ANY ideas?
theres not some, more like a lot and thats normal cuz its happening to everyone. apps that dont appear on the market have to be downloaded as .apk files and then transferred to your nooks sd card i use drop box and es file explorer for this procedure
how would i do this? how close are the people to fixing this and being able to install custom roms? i need facebook.
sideloading if it is not working from market.

Copy the .apk to the device and select it in a file explorer program.

It's not technically broken. The market should not show you apps for which your device does not meet the requirements. That doesn't meet they don't work, but that you have to install them another way. After updating my phone to ICS, I had to sideload Tapatalk, since it is not "technically" compatible with ICS, even though it does work.

1) Use the web app (it's pretty good, and doesn't have any background processes)
2) Look for the thread in the App section titled "[download] Facebook, Twitter and Google+ apk"
Hi all,
I've just rooted my tablet today. In the process of removing bloatware, I accidentally removed Gmail and really need to have the Tablet S's specific Gmail apk file to install it back. It's impossible to install from the market, probably due to the android version.
And hell, why can't Google update the market a tablet version of gmail instead of telling to my face that my device is "incompatible".
Thank you.

Try this link. I cant access the mediafire at work so not sure if it will work.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=944069&highlight=gmail+apk
No this can't work. The link you posted are the APKs for Froyo. Tablet S runs Honeycomb, and needs a specialized version for the tablet screen.
I will need someone with a rooted tablet to get the APK for me :-(.
Edit:
I can see that you have a rooted S. Could you mind grabbing the APK named Gmail.apk from /system/app/Gmail.apk and upload somewhere? That'd be great.
Edit:
Installed that random Froyo apk (just so the system are fooled that there is some Gmail app). But running it will lead to the app being forced closed.
However, I used root explorer to replace the Gmail apk with the apk from this:

And it runs beautifully

No. I use the APK from the link above. You need root explorer to access the system folders.
You can simply replace your current APK with this one, set the right permission and reboot your tablet. That should work.
But back up your original APK - I hold no responsibility if somehow the APK doesn't work on your tablet.
