Can not load Nook app after new rom - G Tablet Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi,
Having finally decided I have had it with the stock rom after this last update crashed my system I flashed Calkulin +Clemsyn Combo Overclock. I was not disappointed with it but I am running into one problem. As I am installing all of the apps I had before I can not get the B & N Nook app to reinstall. Actually it installs fine but when I try to sign in to the app it keeps saying I have no WIFI which isn't true. I uninstalled the app and deleted the folder from the SD card. I went to FreewareLovers and found the older versions of the app. I installed it and while I can at least sign in with that one it will not sync my library. I called B&N and they were of no help. They did say that it was not a problem with my account. This is the only app I have had problems with. I teach using e-books so I really do need this app. I have checked the date and time also which can cause problems with these e-book apps. If anyone has found a fix for this it would be greatly appreciated.

[Q] some apps not to install

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 (donĀ“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

[Q] Nook App on CM7 not working

I am running CM7 7.1.0 RC1 off sd card when I load the nook app and log in I see my newspapers Wall Street Journal and Barron's but when I try to download I keep getting error message indicating file format not supported.
Are yuo using the most recent version of the Nook app? I think at one point the app did not support newspapers and magazines.
I am running the latest download from the market version 2.6.2. Somewhere I thought I read something about a build prop file needing to be changed for certain devices in order to run certain apps like the new market app but I am not sure at all how that works or if it even applies.
I use the Nook for Android app pretty extensively and subscribe to several magazines. When I have trouble with the Nook app, and I haven't for some time, I do the following.
1. Go to applications
2. Click on the Nook app
3. Click on Clear Data.
4. Click on Uninstall
Reboot
5. Go to market.
6. Search for and install Nook App.
7. Sign in
8. Download content again.
I've done 10 NB installs since I had to do that, so I don't think it's a current issue if you get the latest version.
Market shows this as:
Updated: Juune 8, 2011
Current Version: 2.6.2
NB 143 is running smoothly enough for me to think it's good as RC2 for 7.1
Thanks for the information and suggestions. I have now updated to nightly 140 and things are running very good. However I still am having the same issue with the Nook app I have wiped data and uninstalled rebooted and reinstalled several times and it shows that I have purchased subscriptions to both the WSJ and Barron's but when I go to download it still gives me the file not supported error message. When I do a search using the app I see other newspapers available for purchase but not the Wall Street Journal or Barron's. However, when on go online through my laptop they show when doing a search for newspaper subscriptions. I have not tried to download any content through the nook app yet maybe that's the next step but I find it strange that these two publications do not show up in a search using the app. Any thoughts we be much appreciated.
Nook App goes straight to Library
Hope this is on point...
I have an issue where the nook ereader app goes straight to library. This is different than the nook app on my G2x and the videos that I've seen for others using CM7 show the same app as on the G2x. Any thoughts. I'm thinking that this might be due to the lack of an IMEI ?

Help understanding CM and Market

I can't find a definitive answer to this. My understanding of CM is Gapps need to be installed in order to get market, maps, etc... I installed CM7 on my touchpad today. Everything went very smooth. I never installed gapps. After the initial boot up it took me through the gmail account setup. After that was done it downloaded all of the apps I currently have installed on my phone from the market to my touchpad? Now the part that confuses me. When I uninstall an app from my touchpad, it also uninstalls it from my phone? Is there an option to stop this somehow? If it makes any difference I'm using a rooted HTC Thunderbolt, running a sensed Rom.
Ok after thinking about my question and reading more. I am not completely familiar with ACMEinstaller. I got to thinking that the installer reads what I placed in the cminstall folder and installs all of the .zip files I placed in it? If that is true, I did install gapps inadvertently, I planned on seeing what the device looked like without before I installed it. I was going to go back to the recovery and install it after I familiarized myself with CM a bit. Either way, if I did install gapps, is it possible to unlink these apps from the apps currently installed on my phone, or should I just make an extra gmail account specifically for my touchpad?
They actually shouldn't be linked as far as my knowledge. Even if you have back up this device with google account selected. I have that on both my devices Atrix on CM 2.3 and my Touchpad. I have not experienced what you have. I will look into it some but someone might know something exact before i reply
I thought it was odd. I uninstalled an app that was of no significance on the touchpad. Restarted my phone and it disappeared from my phone to?
I've been having like the same issue, if I go to the android market on the browser and check the devices assosiated to my account, it does not show my tp just my phones. Has anyone found a solution for this?? if somebody has, please share it... Thanks
If you hit menu button - settings - accounts you can click on your gmail account and unselect syncing.
I think that might do the trick with it syncing with your phone.
Or if all else fails, just create a new gmail account specific for the TP.

[Q] Netflix App Update

I updated the stock Netflix app via the Play Store and it seemed to work fine except it keeps downloading and installing the update over and over again. Sometimes when I run the app it is the 1.6.0 stock version.
So, I deleted the Netflix app out of /system/app and copied the newer version there to replace it. That didn't help. It isn't that it is a big deal, either version works fine but now I am really wondering where the old version is coming from since I deleted it.
I am seeing it download every day as well. I haven't spent too much time on hunting it down and removing it to make it stop, but it is quite annoying.
So, I have tried removing it from /system/app but then periodically the Nook copies the old version to /data/app deleting the new version from there. Even if I remove write permissions, it still happens. Haven't figured out where it is getting the original file from either.

[Q] Nook Apps not updating?

Alright, I've looked all over and couldn't find anyone asking the same question, so here it goes. Any help will be greatly appreciated!
Back in November I rooted my stock Nook Tablet. I did not install any other ROMs, I just rooted it and used the method to make the software version 9.9.9.
Due to some school things I haven't picked my Nook Tablet up until recently. Tonight I noticed that both the Fandango and Words with Friends apps needed to be updated. So I went to the "Apps" library and tapped "Check for Updates." When I did this, it told me that all apps were up-to-date, despite the fact that both the Fandango and WWF apps still said they needed to be updated.
I suspect this has something to do with the version 9.9.9 thing, but I am not sure, so I jumped on here to ask if anyone has any idea what's up.
Furthermore, I've noticed that if I install WWF Free from the Android Market, by Nook App of WWF no longer says it needs to be updated until I actually click on the app.
Everything else related to the Nook works fine. Downloading books, magazines, other apps, etc. But for some reason, no updates are showing up as available.
Anybody have any idea what's going on? I'm stuck. Once again, any help is appreciated!
Hmm. Ok, so I did some more investigating. It looks like you can force the app to update without using "check for updates" by archiving the app and then un-archiving it.
This is just a work around, but if anyone else has the same problem, this looks to be a way to fix it for now.
I have had the same problem.
I have a similar work around....I use Go Launcher to uninstall the B&N apps and then after a reboot I go to the Nook App Store and redownload the apps. MOST of the time it downloads the new updated version, but sometimes I have to do this process several times to get the new version.
