did you install the apk as a regular apk or did you move it to system/apps and rebooted.

In last case, did you set permissions right (rw-/r--/r--)?

If you post the apk i can give it a try (Arc Lt15i) if you want
[Xperia Arc Themes and Apps] martin132014:
I install using both method, regular and copy to system/app and set the permission to rw-r-r-...but fail also.

This is the link to the apk file. I hope you can solve this problem of mine..

sorry Martin, no luck here either.

I managed to install a widget i found on the www, but indeed it looks slightly different to what you are looking for.

i've attached my homescreen with it.

[Xperia Arc Themes and Apps] ShyamSasi:
I tried to decomplie the widget seems like it need the framework-res.apk file. So I don't think it's easy to port because it's just like our Timescale widget won't work in other devices.

Hi,

Does anybody know where to find custom lockscreens for HTC Legend?
[Legend Themes and Apps] johnson8cyl:
Have you tried this tool to create your own? You could always find custom lock rings already made and use it as your replacement per the instructions. It just uses the rom your'e running and creates a flashable zip for you. What are you looking for exactly?

Edit: I assume you are talking sense 3.0?
[Legend Themes and Apps] ovicornea:
Hi,

Yes, I would love to replace my Legend's original 2.2 lockscreen (the curved bar that you pull down) with this one (I don't know how it's called).

I managed to simply copy and replace the HTCLockScreen.apk and the new lock screen is working upon reboot, but the problem is that it also unlocks when I press the Menu button.

Any ideas? Some Settings will also be highly appreciated.
[Legend Themes and Apps] Asovse1:
Why would you need to press MENU on the lockscreen? ;)

Back in the days of Android 2.1 on the Legend, I remember that pressing MENU would automatically unlock the screen, with the stock lockscreen, on my unrooted device. I don't know about the official Froyo update however, and if it had that feature in it.
[Legend Themes and Apps] johnson8cyl:
Maybe an option to turn that unlock feature off? What rom are you running? I read that all you have to do is delete the htclockscreen.apk not replace it. Found this for cm7
[Legend Themes and Apps] rangers:
Use widget locker!!! Lots of skins and highly customizable!!!
[Legend Themes and Apps] ovicornea:
An option to turn unlock feature upon pressing Menu will be nice. i'm using Legend_Froyo_S_HTC_WWE_3.15.405.3, rooted

I would like not to install extra widgets or apps. Just system settings!

Is there some way i can fake my dpi for the purposes of the market. My phone's default is 240, but I like my dpi set to 190 as that complements my screen size really well ... however, when market looks at that, it assumes I have a tablet and removes most apps etc ... is there a way I can fake my dpi to 240 (it doesn't need to change it to 240, just make the market think it is 240) without having to manually change it to 240 and restarting the phone?

[Nook Color General] doncaruana:
Okay, if you have received the 1.3 update or you want to get it, this has worked for a few people now (thanks to billingdl for figuring our walking this path first!). This has only been tested for going from rooted 1.2 to 1.3. No idea on how it will fare with other changes.

You will need a bootable CWM card for this procedure. Look here for that. Then put these files on it:

manualnooter-4-5-18.zip

manualnooter-4-6-16a.zip

Note: Rom Manager is included as part of MN.

You'll notice that MN has an 'a' on it. I added two things there: the final fix for build.prop that was never updated and I also added a script to update the database to block OTA updates (this has worked for me) as found here.

Okay, so here we go...

1. Get the 1.3 update. YOU WILL LOSE ROOT! But don't fret - you shouldn't lose anything else.

2. Shut down your nook and boot with the bootable card.

3. Install manualnooter-4-5-18.zip and then reboot.

4. You have root now, so go launch the market and sign in.

5. Shut down your nook again and boot with the bootable card.

6. This time install manualnooter-4-6-16a.zip.

6a. If you want to, you can also install Dalingrin's OC kernel while you're here, which he recently updated with the 1.3 source. Your choice, but the file is here.

7. Reboot again.

8. Put your regular "data" SD card in for this step - Go into Rom Manager and run the 'Fix Permissions' option.

9. Go into Nook Color Tools and note the check box at the top. After 1.3 for most (if not all) people, the label is missing now. Uncheck and check the box anyway and close NCT.

10. Reboot

and Voila! All should be working!
[Nook Color General] n8w:
root seems to be back after step four, but I wasn't unable to open the market until loading up 16a. Looks good so far though!
[Nook Color General] sbrack01:
Your instructions didn't work for me :(

I purchased a Nook Color in July. It came with Froyo 1.2. I rooted it using Manual Nooter 4.6.16 shortly afterwards and was loving it!

Then last night, the Nook OTA auto-updated me to the Nook 1.3 firmware.

This morning when I picked up my Nook, I noticed that my Android Market, Google Email and Calendar apps icons had changed. When I tried to start them, I got a "App not found" error message. Then after some exploration, I discovered that I had I had lost Root access.

I followed your instructions. After installing Manual Nooter 4.5.18 and rebooting my Nook, I had root access again. However, when I tried to run the Android Market app I got a prompt saying "loading...", then the app closed.

I tried a couple of times with the same outcome. I then ran Rom Manager, was prompted for super user access and allowed it. I then selected the fix permissions option and rebooted the Nook, but the Android Market app still had the same issue as above.

I then figured I move ahead and install Manual Nooter 4.6.16a in hopes it would fix the problem. After applying it and rebooting my Nook, I again tried to start the Android Market app. This time, on the first attempt to run it, I was prompted to set up a Google account. I selected the existing account option and provided my account name and password. I received a confirmation that my android device was now associated with my Google account.

When I attempted to run the Google Market app again, I experienced the same issue as above. I got a prompt saying "loading...", then the app closed.

I again used Rom Manager and selected the Fix Permissions option and rebooted my Nook again. After rebooting I still have the same problem with Android Market app - starts to load then closes.

Now I'm stuck...

Anyone else experiencing the same behavior? Anyone have suggestions for how I might fix the issue?

For those of you who have been lucky enough to dodge the Nook OTA 1.3 firmware auto-update, I'd highly recommend you disable your wireless until you are able to turn off the auto-upgrade to avoid this unpleasant experience.

I'd be very happy to return to Nook 1.2 firmware with Manual Nooter 4.6.16. It was working perfectly for me and allowed me to access, load and run Android Market apps without any problem.

...Steve
[Nook Color General] GabrialDestruir:
ManualNooter was never about blocking updates, it's about keeping the device as fully functional as possible INCLUDING updates while adding more to the device such as a proper Android Market. Unrooting was always going to be a side effect of the update, which should of easily been fixed by by just reapplying 4.6.16. As for the build.prop "final fix", what exactly is that?

Also any indication on WHY this works would be more helpful than you repackaging 4.6.16 with stuff it wasn't designed to have.
[Nook Color General] doncaruana:
Wish I could say why it works. Like I said, the only thing I did with it was put the build.prop fix in and add the ota change. But others had it work using the last published MN of 4.6.16. I'd love to be able to say it was something I did, but it's not. I was just trying to pull everything together for folks...
[Nook Color General] sbrack01:
I decided to go back and give it a try again from the top. (I had nothing to lose).

The second time I applied MN 4.5.18 and rebooted, the Android Market started working. I was able to connect and I tested installing an app just to make sure it was fully functional.

Great - Then I figured I try to move forward and re-apply MN 4.6.16a. After doing so and rebooting, the issue with Android Market app NOT working returned, ("loading..." message followed by a shutdown of the app). I then realized that wifi wasn't working properly after applying MN 4.6.16a. Checking the settings panel revealed that wifi was off. Every attempt to turning on wifi resulted in a wifi error. Tried applying ROM Manager 'Fix Permissions' again just in case - but wifi problem persisted.

So, I decided to go back and reapply MN 4.5.18 once more. Voila - the wifi and the Android Market started working again.

So I'm now running with MN 4.5.18 and Nook firmware 1.3

I should note that I did apply the optional over-clocking update that you included in your instructions above after applying MN 4.6.16a. Don't know if that is related to the wifi problems I experienced.

Anyway - I've got my Nook Rooted again and running Android Market so I'm happy.

Hope the above info is useful to others who might have the same experience I did.

...Steve
[Nook Color General] sbrack01:
FYI... Did some more follow-up. Tried another version of MN 4.6.16...

Seems that MN 4.6.16 with Nook firmware 1.3 breaks wifi. After applying it, checking the settings panel shows "error" under wifi and wifi is off. Attempts to enable it result in a wifi error. Checking the Nook device info shows an empty MAC address.

So on my Nook there's definitely something incompatible between MN 4.6.16 and Nook firmware 1.3. On doing some googling, wifi improvements are mentioned as one of the optimizations included with firmware 1.3. So maybe that's where the issue lies.

Anyway it's easy to re-apply MN 4.5.18 and once that's done things seem to work fine with firmware 1.3.

...Steve
[Nook Color General] GabrialDestruir:
Try removing the Kernel from 6.16 and see if that works.
[Nook Color General] fpga_guy:
There are many variables in getting BN1.3 to be rooted and functional:

1. the method to get to BN1.2: upgrading to BN1.2 via wifi or restoring to BN1.2 via Nemith's zip file.

2. whether CWM is installed on emmc or not.

3. green dot NC or not?

Thanks to OP, i have my NC 1.3 rooted and functional. By the, Flash 10.3 is part of NC 1.3. This is how I got there:

- restore to stock BN1.2 via Nemith's zip file with no CWM on emmc.

-apply MN4.5.18

- get NC working with gmail, apks', etc... still on BN1.2 but rooted

- side load BN1.3 update

- apply MN 4.5.18 - but be sure to wait until it's done 10-15 minutes

- apply MN 4.6.16a

- fix permissions

- install Dalingren's updated OC kernel

Everything works like a champ.
[Nook Color General] Bearnut2:
Thanks don caruana! I followed your instructions exactly and they worked perfectly! Like another poster, I didn't have the market back until after I uploaded MN 4-6-16a but everything is back to normal now. Yay! :D
[Nook Color General] cmdauria:
If I am running cm7 off emmc, i should not even get prompted for this update, correct?

I am not dual booting, just straight cm7!
[Nook Color General] lexluthor:
I'm having a problem.

I was on 1.2 w/MN 4.6.16 and get the OTA to 1.3.

I just flashed MN 4.5.18 and rebooted.

When I launch market, I get a message saying "you must add an account to the device to continue. Do you want to add one now"? If I select either yes or no, it takes me back to my home screen.

What do I do now?
[Nook Color General] doncaruana:
Try going in to gmail and setting up your account there, then go back to the market. You could also clear data for the market and see if that helps.
[Nook Color General] lexluthor:
Gmail and Talk both automatically close immediately, clearing data for market doesn't change anything. I got into youtube, chose my channel and it took me to an add account option and when I click that it says "there was a problem authenticating."

Now what?
[Nook Color General] doncaruana:
That kinda sounds like a network issue of some sort. Try logging into your account from your pc. Also, can you browse the internet with the nook?
[Nook Color General] lexluthor:
Account works fine on the PC. Nook can browse the internet.

Any other ideas? Argh.
[Nook Color General] doncaruana:
You know, I had the issue where the market closed immediately on me when I tried to put mn4.6.16 on first. You could try a few things here...

Try going ahead with 6.16 and see if that works

or

Reapply 5.18

or

Reapply the 1.3 update and start over with the process

Unfortunately this thing seems to be a bit of a mystery (no one even knows why 5.18 first works for some), so just keep plugging at it and report back in case anything inspires someone more knowledgeable than me. :)
[Nook Color General] lexluthor:
I reapplied 5.18 and then rebooted, same thing.

I then applied 6.16a and rebooted. This time I got the same thing about needing to added an account, but when I said yes, it let me add the account.

I then ran fix permissions and rebooted one more time for good measure.

Things all look good now!

Thanks so much.

Hopefully this helps anyone else with the same issue.

I guess I don't have to worry about a future OTA forced upon me now since I used the "a" version. What exactly does the "final fix for build.prop" do though?
[Nook Color General] doncaruana:
Glad that worked for you!

The build.prop thing is an issue where the original intent of MN was to change the fingerprint of the device for improved market visibility. It was supposed to change to "samsung/GT-P1000/GT-P1000/GT-P1000", but the script had an error and it just got left at zoom2. I can't tell you what the difference in visibility is, but it was a fix that never got implemented, so I slapped it in there.

BTW, I'm sure you're skittish at this point, but you might want to look at Dalingrin's OC kernel, if you haven't already. Although the first thing I'd do is take a full backup with CWM!!

Happy "Nook"ing!
[Nook Color General] marckusdavis:
Thanks doncaruana!

This worked for me too, however, I had the same initial problem with Market as two other posters where it would FC when fired up as per your instructions. But after applying the MN 4.6.16a, it fired up fine. I'm wondering if it had to do with my SD card though. I did not have my "normal" SD card installed when I first fired up Market, but I did have it in once I had applied MN 4.6.16a, so no big deal. Just successfully downloaded/updated a dozen apps. from the Market with no problem and definitely have root again. System reports BN software version 1.3.0. Thanks again for all of your work on this, esp. regarding no OTA updates; obviously the otacerts.zip rename doesn't work since that's what I had in place and I still got 1.3 pushed!

One question for you though - does the DB OTA fix disable any BN features other than OTA updates (e.g. in store stuff, etc.)?
[Nook Color General] doncaruana:
Hasn't yet. I've been using that DB fix since early this year across 1.1 and 1.2 with no loss of features and still had instore access, etc.
[Nook Color General] marckusdavis:
Cool. Thanks!
[Nook Color General] GabrialDestruir:
Received a PM today from someone saying they got the update and reapplied 6.16 and it worked fine, so this seems odd. What exactly at the differences between 5.18 and 6.15?
[Nook Color General] doncaruana:
5.18 has the packages script change. 6.16 has a different ramdisk, adds a kernel change, and includes \system\etc\permissions\com.google.android.datamessaging.xml.

For some people, reapplying 6.16 works fine, for others it doesn't (sure didn't for me).
[Nook Color General] MIDI_Mel:
I had the 1.3 update pushed on me. I woke up found that a lot of apps were gone and e-mail and such wasn't working. Couldn't find anything on it online.

Did a stupid thing and I formatted the nook/card everything. Then did the 4.5.18 and the 4..6.16 update and repaired permissions and all of that.

Seems to be working fine now except I can't find a lot of the apps I once had. Checked the app store on my PC and it says it's not compatible with the Nook.

I didn't have them backed up (like I said I did a stupid thing) is there a way to fully repair the android market and get those apps? What can I do to fix it?

(cross posted from Here )
[Nook Color General] GabrialDestruir:
Hmm.... packages script change.... can someone try putting that in a 4.6.16 and seeing if that works?
[Nook Color General] nloding:
This is not working for me. I've tried rooted 1.2 to 1.3 and rooting; I've tried stock 1.2 to stock 1.3 and rooting. I've tried with 4.5.18 and 4.6.16 and 4.6.16a, just 4.6.16, just 4.6.16a, with/without the OC kernel, etc. Every time, it seems to going well until I run the permissions fix from the ROM manager and then I get stuck on boot - it hangs on the "nook color" screen where the animated line outlines the letters. It hits about halfway through the "c" then hangs, restarts.

I'm going to play around with this and see what I get but so far it ain't working.
[Nook Color General] doncaruana:
Once you get the market signed in with your same id, you should be able to see them again. Same goes for Amazon. You might want to try an older version of the Amazon appstore, people said that the latest one had some issues like that.

Here it is, if someone wants to try...I called it manualnooter-4-6-16p (note the 'p' for packages). I haven't tested it, so let the "buyer" beware...

Yes, they are in /data/app, which shouldn't go away. Your actual data/settings should be retained as well. You can even use most of them before regaining root.

You are booting in between applying *each* of these, right? What happens if you don't run the permissions fix?
[Nook Color General] MIDI_Mel:
I believe I am signed into the same ID and I'm running Market 2.3.6

still no go
[Nook Color General] AEBobby912:
Need help!

So for some reason im stuck on a black screen with the nook logo in the middle and on the bottom in white it says "Contains Reader Mobile technology by Adobe Systems Inc." Anyone know whats goin on??

Bobby
[Nook Color General] nloding:
I was, and even signing into the market. The permissions fix was the culprit - I was running it without an SD card inserted. In the end, I went back to 1.2 stock following the directions in another thread. Updated to 1.3 stock. I ran 4.6.16a, rebooted, logged into the Market. Rebooted again, logged back into the Market, still working. Inserted an SD card, did the permissions fix. Rebooted again, tested Market, still good. Booted to CWM and flashed Dalingren's kernel. Rebooted, tested Market, still good. Running stable since.

So a note to add - SD card needs to be inserted for the permissions fix. I think that's the issue. It's really the only thing I did differently. And 4.5.18 is not needed if you are rooting stock.
[Nook Color General] jerrykur:
Another success. Like everyone else I lost root when they pushed it out the other day. I followed the steps in the original post and now have root and the OC kernel.

Thanks!
