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.
paste using windows yuk: http://kschang.hubpages.com/hub/Android-Softkeyboard-Shootout-which-input-method-should-you-use

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.
This will work on any android tablet or phone.
Do this from your device.
1) If you dont already have it download es file explorer.
2Here is the dropbox link to the zip with the apks: Kindle fire app apks
3)Extract the folder or unzip it. Inside the zip you will find system apks and the amazon app store,amazon mp3 store,amzon kindle, and amazon instant video. Install all of the apks.
5) Install "com.amazon.kindle.otter-20075-2.75-65666d03259704bd-CDZvVy-164.apk" if you do it using your tablet it will just say launcher.
6) Now download the nook color app manager and install it in order to add it to your nooks homescreen.(normal android devices are
skip this step.The silk browser is below.
If you would like amazon silk you need to be rooted (I dont recomend this because it will require you to root your tablet which will disable amazon instant video)
Download and install these two apps
root explorer and vodoo ota root keeper.
download this zip silk.
step 1) Go to root explorer and go to where you downloaded your zip to. This may be on your nook tablet /mnt/media/my files/my downloads and find the zip. unzip it or extract it to the same my downloads folder.
step 2) Then you will need to go to the apps folder in the extracted silk folder and long press one of the apks. a popup menu will apear. click copy. The click the back button or the ... (it may varie) and work your way back to the mnt directory. Click on the system folder now instead of media. Now select the app folder.( Be very careful not to alter your system files it will be permanent. However there is a fix. just pm or email me if something goes wrong.) On the top right of the screen there should be a white or greyish button. It should say Mount R/W. Click that and you will see it change to Mount R/O. On the bottom of the screen click paste.
step 3) Do this to each apk inside the silk/system/apps folder. (There are only three of them)
step 4) Go back to the extracted silk folder folder and instead of the app folder click the lib folder. Do the same process for each of the four libs. However instead of pasting them inside of the system/appfolder paste them into the system/lib folder.
step 5)When your done exit out of root explorer and go back to es file explorer. In there you go back to the silk folder and in the app folder install the three apks. Next, reboot your device.
step 6) You arent done go to the launcher apk and silk should be working and there is a noticable speed difference from the stock nt browser.
FINAL STEP) Since you have a rooted device amazon instant video will not allow you to playback vdeo.Thats where vodoo ota root keeper come in to help. You can easily unroot your device and restore the root quickly. unroot it when you want to watch a video and restore the root when you do need it which should not be very often. Now you are completely done. Go to each of the shortcuts on your kindlefire homescreen and sign into your amazon account.
I f you need help contact me and I will walk you through it Email or pm me anytime.
The kindle fire is basically a launcher and then amazon kindle apk, amazon app store apk, framework, amazon mp3, amazon INSTANT VIDEO apk, and the silk browser anlso known as com.cloud.9.apk, and the silk browser's libs.
PLEASE NOTE THAT YOU WILL HAVE TROUBLE TRYING TO HAVE THE SILK BROWSER AND AMAZON INSANT VIDEO RUNNING AT THE SAME TIME?
To place the libs in the system/lib folder you will need to root your tablet and use root explorer and install the com.cloud.9.apk(silk browser).
This contridicts the amazon prime instant video because you will need to be unrooted in order playback video otherwise you will get an error message "your device is no longer configured properly..bla.bla.blaa"
However the fix for this would be to either someone make a signed zip with the silk browsers libs and apk that you could install using cwm (boot from sd card) or us voodo ota root keeper. That is suppose to let you backup your root on the sd card and temporarily unroot your device. I HAVE TRIED TO UNROOT AND THE AMAZON INSTANT VIDEO STILL DIDNT WORK, SO I HAD TO DO THE ACCLAIM UPDATE ZIP TO RESTORE BACK TO STOCK(THE ULTIMATE UNROOT). Some people got theirs to unroot so it may varie. I CHOSE Amazon Instant video over the silk browser bexause I had found someones kindle fire setup apk(or whatever its called find it) and it said welcome to kindle fire and when I made my amazon account I still got the one month free of prime. Its more valuable than silk untill the trial ends and i could just do the regristration apk again. I will post a list of all the apks you will need and a download link for the folder including all of the apks and files.
Note- Do not install the amazon silk com.cloud.9.apk until you use the rootexplorer to move the four libs to the system/lib folder and the 3 apks to the system/apps directory. Make sure you mount and then unmount when finished. Delete those files if you will do a system reset or something goes wrong.
Also for those who really could care less about amazon instant video you could still use the setup/regristation app (please post the name or apk) to get the free month of prime and use the nooks web browser to go to amazon.com and go to instant video for streaming through the web browser. Then you could still have your root. THE ONLY DIFFERENCE IS THAT WITH THE AMAZON INSTANT VIDEO APP YOU WILL NEED TO UNROOT HOWEVER IF YOU KEEP THE ROOT YOU CAN STILL STREAM IN THE BROWSER BY SIGNING IN?
If you dont have problems with the unrooting then after you move silks libs ana apks to the system/lib and system/app directory then just unroot and you can install the instant video apk and have the whole kindle fire interface.
THE REASON WHY I SAID ITS A KINDLE FIRE APP WAS THAT THE LAUNCHER APK IS THE HOME SCREEN OF THE KINDLE FIRE AND FROM THERE THE NEWSTAND! BOOKS! MUSIC! VIDEO! APPS! AND WEB ARE ALL SHORTCUTS TO THE APKS. THATS IT AND IF YOU USE THE NOOK COLOR APP MANAGER YOU COULD ADD THE APP CALLED LAUNCHER TO THE HOMESCREEN.JUST PRESS THE LAUNCHER APP(THE ICON IS A PICTURE OF A KINDLE FIRE WITH THE ORANGE KINDLE LOGO ACROSS IT)And youll have a kindle fire on your nook tablet no dual booting or flashing needed.
IF YOU HAVE QUESTIONS POST OR EMAIL ME @[email protected] or pm.

Where is the link for this app that makes the nt look like a fire. Just curious.
Its the launcher apk in the kindle fires system os. It will only be a woden bookshelf if you dont get the amazon apps then the shortcuts will work and the carosel will work. Also it doesnt just look like a kindle fire it basicaly is one without the kindle fire kindle app. I will post the dropbox link for a folder with all of the apks. Then I will post the silk browsers apks and libs and root explorer apk so you could have silk browser also. And I will post the kindle fire setup apk or whatever its called so you could get the first month of amazon prime for free.
The final apk would be the nook color app manager so you could add the launcher apk to your homescreen.
Also you will need vodoo ota root keeper if you root your tablet. If you are not rooted then you cant get the silk browser.
Can anyone post a signed zip with the silk browser or com.amazon.cloud.9 apks and libs files so you could use cwm to push it to the tablet without root. I will edit the main post with a simple setup for rooted and unrooted nook tablets.
I will post the dropbox links later on.

They wont let me upload the full screenshots from my nt. It actually looks very sharp. The nook app icons will be pixilated but anything you get from amazon will look sharp on the carosel.

I opened this thread just to check it out. I really had no plans to get the Fire apps on my Nook, but wanted to peek. I'm really glad I did. I'm new to the Nook Tablet, and was unhappy that when I rooted, my sideloaded apps couldn't be added to the nook screen. I'm a longtime Android user, and consider myself a power user. That said, I want to say THANK YOU for posting the Nook Color App Manager. It is such a awesome little app! Can't believe I'd never seen it mentioned on the root threads. It's a shame that they include a seperate launcher and not that as well. I'm all for choice, but not including it seems like a HUGE oversight!
I am actually going to try this with my Kindle Fire... I have CM9 on it currently and would love to have the carousel and bookshelf back, as well as the Amazon videos since I'm a prime member!!

I just stumbled on to this thread. I dont use my nook tablet much because my girlfriend is always on it. I am interested in doing this mod because my nt has some major motion lag. I am currently running 1.4.2 rooted with dual home screen, nook/adw launcher android. Would i have to go back to stock setup?

it only works on kindle devices but i thought that if i was running these apps (including the launcher) it would trick amazon lol
maybe it does and i did it wrong.....
Well I just did this to my nook and its kind of cool. I dont currently have any amazon accts so got to get that set. It was a pretty easy process and thanks to OP for great detailed instructions. My only question is when I press the home button I get four option nook, adw launcher, kindle launcher and another kindle provision? It fc's on me
Sent from my BNTV250 using xda premium
Same thing happens to me.. i think its what nook does with a launcher, it blocks the other one and keeps it own launcher. Thats why devs createdhome catcher.. so i guess thats what it is.. i love these apps! Thanks

Has anyone managed to install Whatsapp on their tf300?
Try backing it up on your phone with Titanium Backup, copy the backup file to your tablet and restore it there.
Did just that. It wont come out properly. The app just wont show up.
Ok, how about this - get the apk of WhatsApp from your phone and put it on your tablet and install it. Then go to Titanium Backup and just restore data from the backup you made on your phone.
This is what I've done (just remembered this now, thought you just had to copy the backup and restore it) when I was experimenting with Android on my netbook a couple of months ago and it worked
The app actually checks if it's a tablet trying to run it. Prolly need to dig out the manifest and change it since that has nothing to do with user data and can not be altered via titanium or any other backup tool.
Works for me! (see the attachment)
Here's what I did:
- copied WhatsApp's apk from my phone to the tablet
- made a backup of WhatsApp in Titanium Backup on my phone
- installed WA from the apk I just copied on the tablet
- copied the 3 files Titanium Backup made for WA's backup from the phone to the tablet (obviously you need to put those files to /sdcard/TitaniumBackup)
- ran TB on my tablet, only restored data for WA
- ran WA and it worked

can you do this with a non rooted phone?
Does the phone used have to be the one you want to send the whatsapp messages from?
how do i copy the apk?
Sent from my ASUS Transformer Pad TF300T using XDA
No, you need root on your phone as Titanium Backup won't work otherwise. The apk is in /data/app, but you'd also need root to access that folder.
You'd need a backup made on your phone, since WhatsApp uses your phone number to send/show messages. If someone else would send you their backups, you'd see their messages and would send messages in their name as well, so that isn't a possibility.

You'll need a file browser that can go to the root "folder" (not sure if that's the right expression, hah) your phone, like ES File Explorer or Root Explorer, as the data folder is there.

Got it working thanks a lot Yeah I forgot to install the app first before actually trying to restore data.
@ w3by Thanks!!! Successfully installed!
I think i know the answer to that, but i'm going to ask anyway...:silly:
there's no way of copying my WA files the same way from my iPhone to
my TF300...right?
so just wait for a supported version, should it even be released...?
thanks
That I don't really know because its an Iphone. I never use apple products. But if its an android to android thing then something can be done
it works quite easy but you can only use it on one device otherwise WA bugs you do death with verifying your phonenumber.
if you backup with TB all i needed to do is restore it and it worked - but my gnex was also running it at that time so both devices went bezerk with the verifying your number. i killed it on my gnex and used the sms verify and WA worked like a charm on my tf300 - tho since i use my phone on the road mosty i deleted it again on the tab - but it definetly works - tho ofc updates will have to copied over via TB backup since the playstore wont update it (same with LBE privacy guard - not available for tabs but works the same)
cheers
PS: for iphone:

get the apk for your tab and enter your phone number and get the sms actication us the pin you get by sms and enter it on your tf300 - bear in mind tho that you still face the same probs i mentioned above- WA cant be used by more than one device simultaniously
(it goes without saying that you prolly should install with TB - so you need root)

You can't remove the password with a pdf reader. Adobe Acrobat allows you to remove the password and make the change permanent. Of course, Acrobat is not free. However, the pdf reader/viewer you are using should be prompting you to enter the password. Once entered, you should be able to view the file. Worst case? Download Adobe's own reader app from the play store.
Maybe try this program http://www.pdfpasswordremover.com/

Your original post stated that you wanted to be able to read the pdf files. I've got password-protected files on my phone and tablet. Installed the Adobe reader app on both and it works like a champ. Yes, if you really want to edit and modify pdf files then you do need to look elsewhere. Not trying to bust your chops, but you need to be more exact in your post so your time and others are not wasted.

+1 adobe reader works fine for me when reading password-protected files
It has to do with the DRM security of it. So found this program a couple of weeks ago and never got it to work properly as far as being able to unlock the book called PDF factory. It was a simple matter of print to file using adobe and printing to the program. Then it opens in PDF factory reader and I save as. It is a free trial version so it leaves a tiny watermark with a link to their website at the bottom of each page.

It depends on a few things.however if you can email me the PDF I have had mostly success removing these passwords for transferring pdf's to my phone, i can't imagine it is that much different for tablets. I've got some perl scripts laying around somewhere.

Hi, There are many other users also who are facing the similar problem. Many times users are unable to copy, print, or edit the PDF document. Therefore, in such cases it becomes necessary for the user to have some applications like Softaken Unlock PDF Tool to unlock password protected PDF. With this software, user can remove security from PDF documents easily on any Windows OS.
To unlock PDF file security you can use Softaken PDF Unlocker Tool. A few days back I was also searching for the tool that can unlock and remove PDF restrictions. However, after a lot of searches, I came across this utility. It really helps me to remove restrictions from PDF documents and enable all PDF permissions, This software runs on all Windows systems.

Strange as mine are in the kindle folder. Have you got system files hidden and they are not showing for some reason?
