I modified the CM7 gapps file with some of the available fixes for those running Honeycomb on their Nook Colors.
Here's what's inside
- Installs the su files Chhaggerty posted found here to provide root access for apps like Root Explorer.
- Pushes the Cicada's wpa_supplicant fix that allows AdHoc Wifi support
- Install both "/system/framework/com.google.android.maps.jar" and "/system/etc/permissions/com.google.android.maps.xml." Both are needed to install the Twitter app for Android.
-Fixed FC Gallery.
Download: Latest copy: V003. http://www.mediafire.com/?mgo39i53n164x9z
- Changes: Reinstalls both Gmail and Google Maps 4.5.1
-Bugs: Unable to update to Maps 5.1. It installs, but FCs when opened.
Old Copies
V002. http://www.mediafire.com/?b2aa646k6he6h01
changes-Market fix.
Bugs:
-Uninstalls both Gmail and Google Maps.
Don't use. Missing a lot of appshttp://www.mediafire.com/?bj70u5zqp01blvy

Opps. Sorry about that.
Oh sweet, im going to try this as son as i get home to my recovery sd....i still cannot get clockwork to function properly.
Ran this and it wiped google maps from my nook and now its not visible on the market
so this is for running HC on emmc not an sd card, yes?

Thanks a million for this one, I have my r/w permissions back in Root Explorer!! As I'm still a noob at all this I haven't been able to get adb working so this is a huge help with the HC build.
Thanks again!!
P.S. This also completely removed my gmaps as one other comment mentioned. I haven't checked to see if I can find it on the market however. As far as I'm concerned it's worth the trade though!!

In my post above I hadn't really spent much time with the nook after installing your file and wanted to report that it also removed gmail and borked the market. I tried to clear the cache, etc. with no luck so I just wiped the nook and went back to a clean install of the hc emmc v4.
Would you be able to put a version of this up that just has the scripts for the root access and the adhoc wifi? It would be greatly appreciated!!
Thanks again.
Is anyone able to get Google Maps to locate via Wifi using these files?

Does this fix gmail too?
Edit: Yup, gmail still broken from v1 and maps just FCs as well. If you flashed the first file you will have to wipe and start over.
TY
This is really great news! Thanks for the hard work. I used your gallery apk a few days ago. Fantastic!

Confirmed. I tried to download a copy from market and it just FCs. Sorry about that. I was able to get gmail working by pushing a back up copy of the gmail.apk into my /system/app folder. I try to work on a fix tonight.
Not sure all the permissions are 100% correct, but if you put all the files in a single location, this is the script I've been using to install them on SDCard based installs of Honeycomb v4.
EDIT: Removed script, new one is on Page 3.
so i already had maps installed and it doesn't work now. honestly don't know if it worked before. LOL. i didn't install it myself, so i never fired it up. anyway, tested it out and i get the following FC:
(process com.google.android.apps.maps) has stopped unexpectedly. Please try again.

any ideas?
My google search on the top right seems to be missing now.

The wpa_supplicant file was causing an error for me. My wifi wouldn't turn on at all.
I deleted it and repushed it and it worked.

This worked great. The script ran with no errors or other problems. Gmail, talk and gallery all look good, but Maps is nowhere to be found, either on the Nook or in the market.
Any idea how I can pick it up? There's no maps APK that I can see anywhere on the device.
Like this, and appreciate the work, but out of my greedyness I shall ask for more; any chance that a modified build.prop or fix for not seeing apps (angrybirds,xplane,etc) could be included in an update?
Dont know if any one else has tried it but the new NetFlix app seems to work with out using the netflix fixer app here is here the link from androidpolice site if anyone else wants to give it a try.

Working for me! Thanks for the link.
Works great! No need for build.prop edits or any special apps.
No chipmunks, just smooth playback.
Did you have to root in order to use Netflix? Sorry if it sounds dumb but I'm thinking of buying one.

Not any more. I set my friend up with a SD bootable cm7 latest nightly and with the updated app it worked. No fast foreword audio or video, just pure goodness. His nook is a non rooted blue dot nook.

Yes sorry it is a rooted rom, what I meant to say is that you do not have to root the stock nook itself if you run an SD bootable version. Unless the sd bootable roots the device in the process? I myself run off rooted emmc so SD bootables are a little foreign to me.
Thanks for the link.
Latest nightly C7 and it works well without the build mod.

This worked well for me--Thanks! No fiddling with any other files, just signed into Netflix account and it worked.

Actually, it is not. Rooted means you have kept the stock ROM and simply opened it up so you can install the market and other apps not in the Nook app store. CM7 is a custom ROM that replaces the stock ROM. While the distinction may not sound important, it is if someone follows the wrong instructions when trying to return a Nook Color to stock form such as if they have a warranty issue.
Rooted means that you have root access to the OS.
"root is the conventional name of the user who has all rights or permissions."
- http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Superuser
I just installed CM7 to SD card, and then download the netflix app from here.
Works great!
I wonder why Netflix no longer shows up in the Market?

Really? CM7 isn't rooted? Wow. You're probably are one of the people who "bricked" a NC as well, eh?
Rooted (as joenathane says) means you can do w/e the hell you want to the OS (super-user/administrator rights). CM7 (and nearly all after markets roms) are rooted.
Thanks for the link. Working great on Phiremod MIUI.

No need for sarcasm. What I meant was when you follow the instructions for rooting your Nook Color you are really keeping the stock ROM and opening it up. When you install CM7 you are replacing the stock ROM with a custom ROM. Yes, it is still rooted but it is not the stock ROM. The instructions for doing and undoing this are different depending on which way you go and I did not want people to be confused if they try to undo what they previously did.
And no, I have note bricked mine. You can't brick a NC since you can always boot from a SD card. You can get it to the point where many would give up, but you cannot brick it.

Hehe...just making sure you know what's up
This is a noob question. I probably should know the answer, but I don't.
I downloaded the apk file. Where on the SD card do I put it to get it to run?
I know how to get to the root menu and/or to connect the Nook via USB. I have heard about "pushing" an app to the device, but I don't know how to do it.
Thanks.
PS. I also bought a copy of Root Explorer.
I simply downloaded the file using the nook browser, then tapped on the download to install it (the notification window at the bottom).

check in settings for auto brightness and sms as well look in settings enable the longer limits
I haven't tried this for the Photon yet, but disabling boot animation on the Touchpad simply gets rid of the unicorn animation and replaces it with a more generic boot animation.
Better if you don't want your homophobe buddies to see =P.
Just download the droid razr boot animation zip and replace in /system/media. Or use one of my cm9 ones .

I found a few things that aren't working right. the Performance option FC's Rom Control every time when you try to open it, not sure what all options are in there.
The boot tweaks does open and items are selectable however after you leave that screen the settings revert, there is no way to save settings.
And finally I was not able to find where I could change my default storage settings between internal sd and external sd.

performance is a known bug check op.. but what it does can be accomplished with most over clocking apps from the market..
the boot tweaks I will look into I'm going to try to see for myself if it works... if not I think I know already what to do.....
the storage is cm9 this is aokp so the options wont be exactly the same... however it can be edited.... but I have limited time to do these things so the storage pretty much will be set to default until I can get it done..... sorry

Considering you were unable to find it and it's the settings menu in CM, I think the question has been answered. It not working would imply you found a setting, tested it and it didn't function.

1-3: Flash clockworkmod onto your android and choose "Install from zip" this will allow you to manually update your phone as well as install apps. For the google play app, look for "Gaaps".

~EDIT~
Recently I rooted and flashed CM 11. Any time I try to go and play a video, whether it's from the internal storage, sd card, or stream from a website, I just get "Can't play video."
Does anyone know of any reasons why this would be happening and how how to fix it? Or any suggestions? Should I reflash?
Also, usually when you hold down the Droid Home button you get a list of all recent apps as well as a link to the Task Manager at the bottom. There is no such link now though. Is this an Android Kitkat thing or a CM thing? How do I get to the Task Manager?
varxtis said:
...
There seem to be pretty significant shortcuts/features missing and I can't tell if thats because it's kitkat, or because it's CM.
Example:
1.) Sound - ~EDIT~ Found "Sound" button. Wishing it had "vibrate" mode but at least now I can Toggle normal/mute.
2.) Brightness - On this one, there is a Button that takes you to a brightness bar, which is fine... but it won't let me select "Auto". It seems more like a glitch than anything when I tap it.

Thank you ^_^ Fair enough, She can definitely live without them.
Now its just a matter of understanding why videos can't be played. It wouldn't have anything to do with which gApps I used would it?

Videos cannot be played because of a kernel bug. The CM11 Official Nightlies have this issue fixed.
If you are running the official CM11 nightlies, what build number is it? Could be a regression.
I apologize,
Ive been checking for updates periodically, but Im not very familiar with what nightlies are. I figure these are updates/patches that are done on a nightly bases.
Right now my CyanogenMod Version is
11-20131220-UNOFFICIAL-acclaim
Build Number:
cm_acclaim-userdebug 4.4.2 KOT49H e9e3ba9b67 test-keys
Thanks to your post, I went ahead into "About Tablet" and then into CyanogenMod Updates to take a closer look. Since flashing CM11 Ive only been checking "New Versions (Stable only)", but I didn't even realize you can change which updates you can search for... so again I thanks to your suggestion I changed it to "Update types: New Versions (incl, Nightlies)"
Three options became available... so I downloaded cm-11-20140218-NIGHTLY.
Should I install?
I'd suggest trying the M3 snapshot: cm-11-20140210-SNAPSHOT-M3-acclaim.zip (http://download.cyanogenmod.org/get/jenkins/58498/cm-11-20140210-SNAPSHOT-M3-acclaim.zip).
Awesome,
As always, thank you very much
Now, Is that something I could just download and run straight from the tablet main UI? Or would I download it, put into same bootSD card I used to flash CM, reboot nook into recovery and then flash the snapshot zip? Either way isfine, just want to know which way to go.

You have to flash the zip via recovery (either TWRP or CWM, depends on what you have installed).
Make sure to do these things while in recovery, before flashing the zip. Do *not* touch /rom, /factory, /recovery:
1. wipe cache partition;
2. wipe dalvik-cache;
3. wipe data partition;
4. wipe system partition;
5. NOW you can flash the zip.
