Hi all,
I rooted my Nook tablet using NT16or8gbV47SDimagefile.img and it worked fine.
My only problem is that when I'm using the android portion of it and try to use Google Market to install an app it keeps taking me to the Nook screen saying "Install blocked". I go into settings from the install blocked screen and tick the "Allow installation of non-market applications" but it does not seem to remember this choice and I keep getting the same error over and over.
Any solutions to this problem?
Thanks,

I've found the same issue. It seems as the updated my hidden settings broke the option. I reflashed from the SD card. Backed up nt hidden settings through titanium. Good to go again.
Use a file explorer, go into system/app and replace with the one I attached might be the easiest way.

Ok so I succcesfully rooted my NT using indirect's method but some issues have popped up
1) not all of the google apps are showing up. Not in the app drawer or desktop.
2) titanium backup will not run. I can use root explorer and change to the r/w method though.
3) its no longer seeing my sdcard
4) I'm using ADW launcher and all the menus are white font with a white background(I know this hasn't been resolved yet)
Anybody know why some of this stuff is happening?
Sorry, I would post this in the development forum but don't have enough posts yet.
Thanks!
1) not all of the google apps are showing up. Not in the app drawer or desktop.
Not all GApps are installed via Indirect's tools. Just the basic "foundation", so you can get other tools in the Market, and/or side-load.
2) titanium backup will not run. I can use root explorer and change to the r/w method though.
Try a different APK, and make sure you're rooted.
3) its no longer seeing my sdcard
Reboot. Make sure it ain't corrupted. Sometimes clicking it back out, and back in will help it register with the hardware.
4) I'm using ADW launcher and all the menus are white font with a white background(I know this hasn't been resolved ye
You can press and HOLD, and it'll change color to one you can read. If you slide off the key, it won't "press".
Good luck.
I also rooted my nook and am having some major issues
I followed all of the steps. I was only able to access the App Market by running the debugging app again, however my nook updated and now its telling me I can't download the debugging app for safety reasons. I know I still have the apps because my kill task app is in the bottom corner, but I can't access them.
Also, I tried to unroot and start over and my nook won't allow me to download the unroot app. HELP pls So if I can't start over and can't uninstall, what can I do? I even tried to restore it to factory settings and it only changed my keyboard back to the nook keyboard.
I figured I could download what I wanted from marketplace but I did want to make sure something didn't go wrong there. As for titanium, I've unistalled and redownloaded it several times without any luck. I'm not having any problems accessing SU so I'm assuming I'm rooted, correct?
Btw, sort of off topic but the XDA app force closes on me whenever I click on a topic lol
I have an 8 gig NT (running 1.4.2) that I have rooted using jichuan's method. I then installed the NT hidden settings app. I have tried to enable the "Unknown sources" so that I can install some APK's I use frequently, and I cannot get the setting to stick. I can install apps by moving them into system/app with root explorer, but that is a little more frustrating than using the package installer. I even tried to modify the settings.db file, but that ended with a bootloop. Does anyone have any ideas on how to fix this annoyance?
Never mind, reset to stock and started over and everything is working the way it should.
Hello!
I rooted my NT (1.4.2 8gb) about one-two weeks ago, but I'm still having problems trying to get apps from the browser. I downloaded the NT Hidden Settings apps and when I finally managed to make the "Unknown Sources" box stay checked by immediately turning off my nt right after clicking on the "Unknown Sources Hack", it didn't make any difference.
This is what happens: I download an .apk off my browser, go to Downloads, then click the download. It'll pop up with a message asking to complete the action using the App Installer or the Package Installer. If I click the App, it'll will say, "Unable to intall. This application was not able to unstall onto your device. Please try "Archive" and then "Unarchive" the application to start again." If I click Package, it'll say, "Parse error. There is a problem parsing the package."
And it will do this with every .apk except for the one at http:comptonsoft.com/test/ called "AppMenu" which does basically the same thing as NT Hidden Settings. I've tried using ES File Manager, but when I go to the App Manager, the downloaded file isn't there for me to move/backup/fiddle with.
Also, I'm not sure if his is related to the issue at hand, but when I try downloading other apps I know for sure have an android version, it tells me it's incompatible with my device.
Can somebody please let me know how to fix my problem???
Thanks in advance.
You should be using the package installer, not the app installer, based on my experience. The package installer gave me the same results you see.
In 1.4.2 you can't sideload that way but by installing/pushing apps with adb might work. That is why many 16GB NT users prefer going back to 1.4.0 where sideloading is not an issue but the thing is 8GB NT users can only have installed 1.4.2 internally otherwise you will brick your device.

I can no longer download anything from the play store. It says insufficient space. I have plenty and can download from amazon. If I go into to settings there isn't any app settings. I don't know what to do...I feel so dumb with this Nook, its nothing like my Evo which I can root and mod blind folded.

try clearing the data and cache from the play store app. under manage apps look for google play store and clear data and cache. go into play store and see if anything changes.
if not you probably need to wipe your caches through cwm recovery.
insufficient space...
If anyone has had this issue recently, this is what worked for me:
in ES File Explorer:
navigate to /data/dalvik-cache/
long-press to get the menu
select "select all"
at the top, hit the "delete" button.
navigate to /cache/
long-press to get the menu
select "select all"
touch the folders to deselect them
at the top, hit the "delete" button.
I had thought in /cache/ there was a folder called either cache or dalvik-cache which I also emptied, but right now it is not showing.
**you will get app force closes**
power off the Nook, then power it back up and retry downloading apps.
This worked fine for me with no consequences. Previously I tried deleting the play store cache and data every way I could find to do so, including with Titanium Backup and several reboots, SD card removals.

Help Me please!!!
Hi I have a NOOK TABLET 8GB and since the software upgrade to 1.4.3. stopped working the Android Market and I could not download any application. What should I do to enable it again?
If you upgraded a rooted tablet then you lost root (along with any gapps you had installed, like the Market). You'll have to re-root and reinstall the Market.

I have a Nabi 2 4GB that I have rooted. I have installed Link2SD in order to expand the storage to load more games.
I just noticed when the tablet is in Daddy Mode, the "Add Apps" icon is now the green Android guy. When I click on the icon, I get an error that the "App is not installed". I have searched the internal sdcard storage for the "App Apps" app but I can't find it anywhere on the device.
Does anyone know where Fuhu stores the native apps on the device and if there is a way to reinstall the "Add Apps" app?
Everything else seems to be working normally, but now I have no way to add apps to Nabi Mode once new apps are installed.
I had decided to restore the tablet back to stock then re-root the device.
The last thing I tried was resetting the tablet to factory defaults. After resetting to defaults, the "Add Apps" icon returned and the tablet is now working normally again.
So the solution was to reset to factory defaults!
