Are you using a custom kernel? Check to ensure that file exists using a root explorer. Also make sure the app has root access.

Its telling you what file isn't there, which may not be there on a Stock everything. But just get a root explorer and navigate to the root of the phone then to the folder named dev then look for a file named uinput. If its not there you might need to flash a kernel. However, I am pretty certain that file should be there on all linux systems.
EDIT: If you need, i could write a simple app to look and test if the file is there. But it should be simple enough using a root explorer

OK. What kernel should I flash to get the file there if its not. Also the BT/ Joystick app works fine when I flashed CM11. I'm trying to get it working on Stock though.

I personally use and LOVE ktoonsez's TouchWiz kernel. However, any TouchWiz kernel found in the T-Mobile Android Original Development thread should work. Also, before you do that, if you really wanna stay truly stock, run these commands in a terminal window:
Note: Every new line means you press enter after the typed text.
su
ls -l /dev/uinput
and then paste the results here. that should tell you everything about the file, including if it exists or not.

Ok thanks. I'll have to flash back to stock first. Im currently running cm11.
Edit: I flashed my restored my phone back to TouchWiz stock rom I had backed up. Then just flashed ktoonsez's latest kernel, now it's working. But the file was there when I checked before I flashed the kernel. I think with the stock kernel the app wasn't getting full root access or something to find it.

That could be possible. Or that the kernel was denying any inputs to it that weren't from the system or something. But glad you got it working!

Yes I got it working. But now I'm having the same problem I had with my Moto X where everything works fine then after a minute or 2 il (if that) I can't longer go in to edit mode and none of the mapped touch input works at all. Ex. I start the app, click ime to BT/joystick center turns yellow then I search for controller it finds the controller, I then click JT on turns yellow and everything it's suppose to do. I then back out like it says to do. I'm then able to go into edit mode and set up things as normal. Now here's the problem. Once I set the button I wanted mapped and place it over the the touch button I want it to control it saves and everything but once I go to play it's not even registering anything when I push the controller. Then after a few minutes I can't even get back to edit mode. When I go back into the BT/Joystick center app the JT is now off.
So basically I'm not able to do anything after I mapped the touch buttons to the controller. And then some how the JT turns off by its self. Now one ever helped me when I had the Moto X. Seems the only way for this app to run is with stock. Cause it was working flawless with cm11 on this phone and the Moto X.

sounds like the app is getting garbage collected. Instead of backup out of it, try pressing the home button.

Tbh, it sounds like poor programming. Never used the app personally though. And you say it always works on CM11? It wouldn't surprise me if the kernel is killing the app due to memory loss or something. CM11 probably uses less memory.

If you want to give me the apk i could probably mod it to hold a notificiation while you are using the app, that way it can't get killed. Is the app paid or not?
It's paid.
I am also having the same issue (cannot get access to /dev/uinput). I searched for the file using es file explorer and found that file inside sys/modules/uinput. can i just copy paste that inside dev/ ( i am using paranoid android on one plus one.).

Here is a little workaround or fix, either way, for the EC09 download problem. I have tried it on stock EC09, replace apk and remove odex file. It also works on TSM and Nameless, I have tried it on all of them.
There are some apk's provided here that if you replace what is currently in your /system/app folder they will fix the download issues.It also makes youtube and netflix work reliably, at least in my case. I have not had others test this out, I wanted to get this out to the XDA community to try out. You have to copy these into the app folder, if you try installing it will fail, I have used root explorer, available in market (not free), and Android Commander, Google it (requires Android SDK setup) to copy these strait to the app folder. your phone will vibrate through most of this it's just complaining about the change. Now for what you really want, the files, ok fine here they are. Please feel free to post results, good or bad, here.

BTW: after every reboot i get a DRM has stopped working message right as everything finishes loading, just click on the Force Close. It only seems to happen on boot and after you close it the app will work fine.
Now you can also get this in a flashable zip courtesy of BakedTator, thanks for the hook up on that.

Meh, if this zip isn't flashing a kernel then it can be flashed pretty much immeditately after commrom. The system update text that flashes everywhere is produced by redbend_ua during kernel flashing. bmlwrite doesn't do that. Soo flashing this after flashing the should be fine.

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.

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?

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.

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).
After leaving stock for 4.0.3 (phone bricker 2.7) I no longer had allShare, app that I find great.
Is there an apk I could install to get it back?
Use root explorer and open a rom with allshare in it, copy the apk to your sd card, then go back to root explorer home find your copy, long press, then select copy again, then mount as r/w and paste it in the system/apps bin, voila you have allshare working like a charm

Interesting...everything I had found seemed to suggest that Allshare would only work with TW also. I'm running Task's AOKP also and have never been able to get it to work on my phone. I just tried with the .apk linked in this thread...placed it in the /system/app folder and made sure permissions were RW-R--R--. Rebooted, even tried to clear cache/dalivk but still nothing.
I wonder if there is anything else to try? Next time I'm ready to flash an update, I'll do a full wipe and try to place this .apk in the system/app folder before doing anything else.

You can get Skifta to use as a free alternative but I feel it doesn't work as well as AllShare did when I was able to use it (when on stock). Still hope to figure out how to get it working eventually though.

Depends of the file manager/explorer you must mount /system as r/w. In SE file explorer open left side menu, scroll down to root explorer, enable and tap it, you'll get menu with mount r/w option, select rw for system.

I undestand what you say, I have already done that, that is why I can get to the system folder but when I try to overwrite the file it says permission denied. why? is it because the superuser app is updating its binary? I will wait until the update is over and try it again. Thanks
You may try to move file to safe location (BACKUP!!!) and then copy new one. Set permission as before.
yes man, Everything ready

the binary just finished updating and I just overwrote the files. Is this it to fix the calibration problem? or do I have to do something else?
Reboot your phone (will reboot itself if you try to use gps), go outside and test with GPS Status & Toolbox. Maybe you need to select internal gps in phone settings.
Good luck
a little something

Man, sorry about this but before I replaced the file (with its original file) the g-sensor on the bubble app use to give me the number 00,1 and 04, but now it gives 01,7 and 05,9. So I think that must be something in that file that I can change to fix that problem. Please can you xplain to me how to change the code of that file or if you can can do it for me it would be wonderful. thanks again.
Have a nice day
So still doesn't work?
I know from bitter experience that SkyGo (UK) doesn't work on a rooted or jailbroken phone (something to do with counters) but has anyone here found a way round this? I realize that the official release for this is November, but the principle of whether rooting can be detected is the same.
Thanks
I used to temp unroot when using sky go and restore root afterwards. All this can be done without a reboot.
Use hidemyroot or voodoo ota rootkeeper to make a copy of the su binary, unroot device, uninstall superuser app, force close sky go if its running and then reopen.
I wonder if you could used the multi user function of 4.2.2 to run sky go under another user

Now that's a brilliant idea - I hope one of our more technical bods can answer this!

Why go through so much trouble?
I have this problem with an app from my cable provider which enables me to watch live tv on my tablet, it also fails when it detects root.
The only thing I need to do is open the SuperSU app and disable root, it's as easy as that for me.
Maybe this also works for you?

Do you mean you select Full Unroot option?

No, that would also be to much trouble for me, I like things simple.
Just open the SuperSU app, go to settings -> Enable superuser -> uncheck the box besides it.
It disables root access.
Works like a charm for me but I don't use the Sky app, I use another app provided by my cable operator/isp which also checks for root.
Good luck.
Unfortunately it didn't work. Sky really are on the ball when it comes to securing this app.
Looks like I'll have to try the only other thing I can think to make it work, flash back to a stock image using clockwork mod.
Thanks for your help anyhow!

Judging from this thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1506967 they're not only checking for root but are also checking for custom roms.
The bastards!
Good thing Telenet (my isp in Belgium) isn't doing this crap.
Good luck finding a solution, to bad it didn't work.
