here i am again :P

i've finally solved te market problem (retry/cancel screen)

after hours of testing, rooting, restarting (:eek:) i went to school and connected my nook to their wlan, et voila! the error message didn't show up!!

back home again i've tested it with my wlan again (apple timecapsule) and i didn't work at all !

so i dont know what it is but maybe it has to do with the network setup in the nook......:confused:
[Nook Touch Android Development] GabrialDestruir:
Sounds like something is blocking your access to the android market..... doubtful it's the nook's fault if it's just fine at school.
[Nook Touch Android Development] XorZone:
Server access error - I've seen it trying to access search enabled market first time, instead I,used old market w/o search, downloaded any app with it and then push search enabled market.
[Nook Touch Android Development] XorZone:
BTW, I hope I deserve appropriate credit or thanks for my work on tools ;)
[Nook Touch Android Development] apeine:
Maybe some blocked port? And before updating to 1.1, I was able to run market - but even on 1.0.1 it stopped working. There are several ports blocked by standard on regular wifi router. Does anybody knows which one market uses?
[Nook Touch Android Development] bretzke:
Market worked fine (no search of course) for me up until the 1.1 upgrade, just a few days ago. I have a NC running BN stock (rooted with MN, thanks GD!) running now without any Market issues. I don't think it's a router issue unless this APK (or BN 1.1) uses a new/different path to get to Android Market. No troubles connecting to GMail, YouTube or other internet sites so far on my NT.

It is wierd that it did work some time. Any possible app conflict or any other changes between working state vs. Server error?

[Nook Touch Android Development] apeine:
BTW, as I couldn't get my nooter 1.11.20 market to work properly, so I went back to 1.6.24 with 1.1 uramdisk/framework.

When I finished, market original was working (even downloads), but not vending.apk (upgrade). After I returned from my backup, downloads from market original was not working (server error) and vending.apk started working, but still no "my apps" working (server error once again). All the rest is ok. As a good side-effect, my nook is showing up again on my PC's android market website. Go figure. Besides that, apps that weren't showing as compatible with nook STR before are shown as compatible (namely twitter app, google maps, my bank in Brazil app - itau - and some games). At home I'll test them.
[Nook Touch Android Development] henel321:
Did my update to 1.1 today as well and I also get the "failed/retry" error when activating Market. I looked at my Cisco ASA verbose logs for the Nook and this is not a network error.

The Root works well though.
[Nook Touch Android Development] CSX321:
Same results for me. I also can no longer connect with adb, and as others have reported, YouTube no longer loads after the initial log in.

Frustrating, because it seems to be working well otherwise. I need adb to work, though, because I'm testing my apps on it.
[Nook Touch Android Development] eded333:
To regain adb use this:

To gain wifi adb acces use the wifi one :p

If you aren't afraid of adb and are in a hurry, the manual method of installing Gapps is working as it should.

Allthough I am confident this will be sorted out shortly.
[Nook Touch Android Development] CSX321:
Oh, of course! That works, thanks.

USB Debugging issue

Hello,

I just tried installing two different versions of Titanium Backup, one from the market and one from and apk I had (regular and pro). Both install fine, but when I run it, I get the message that I have to turn USB debugging on (or obviously the app is severely limited). USB debugging was already on, but I unchecked and checked, and restarted TB and it still thinks USB Dbg is off. Rebooted device, and still no go.

I know I had this working on 1.0 nook with previous version of TouchNooter.

Any thoughts? Thank you.
[Nook Touch Android Development] eded333:
check if you have adb connectivity, if not you haven't got usb debugging enabled, use this to enable it:

[Nook Touch Android Development] kevincool:
voila

like i already posted on this thread i didn't get the retry/cancel errir at school and i thought it could have maybe been some problem with the nook it self,,, some users here reported that it has to be the router, but it makes absolutely no sense because i can connect to the google market with all my other android devices.

anyway today when i powerd up my nook it suddenly gave me an error message: unable to connect to wifi......

after some research i ve found out that it s the update s fault.....

(because i m not the only one with this prob)

the only way i ve found to fix this was by assigning a static ip to the nook (in my router s settings)

and this did also fix the market error...

so i m not completely sure but i think its the updates fault and not anything else

sorry for my bad formulation/english i dont have much time and english is not my native lang.

good luck ;)
[Nook Touch Android Development] eded333:
That would be very easy to disect.

If wifi dosnt work, youtube, gmail, opera, etc, market wouldnt either, so if those work, why market dosnt? The problem isnt the wifi, it seems more of a timing issue (example, somethings gets installed or modified when the system is not yet prepared), that would explain the ramdomnes of the current automatic methods.

I have only read 1 post about wifi not working correctly....
[Nook Touch Android Development] kevincool:
yesterday when my wifi still worked all apps worked fine! (at school)

here at home this wasn t the case because i did always get the error message.

today the wifi isn t working at all,,, no idea why,,,, but anyway after setting up a static ip all of it work again....

but like i said before, i m not the only one with this problem and in fact all of them are reporting that it came with the update.
[Nook Touch Android Development] eded333:
If that is a response to my post, you didnt answer the important question:

If wifi dosnt work, youtube, gmail, opera, etc wouldnt either, so if those work, why market dosnt?

Did gmail, opera etc work when market didnt?

If they didnt work, nothing is wrong with wifi (maybe yes but nothing related to market)

If the answer is no, opera, gmail, etc worked perfectly but to get market to work you had set a static ip thats another case.

The majority of people that have market problems have Gmail working correctly, Youtube also, and have acces to the internet, but market isn't working, so if they are connected correctly and market dosnt work, it isnt wifi relate.

If your dhcp server isnt working correctly and it dosnt give you an IP without setting it staticaly, of course market wont work, you dont have an internet connection.

So the majority of people having problems with market, had nothing to do with wifi, read other threads as the salsichanooter one or the manual rooting to find how they solved it.

Respond when you can, if I'm wrong and everything (internet related) is working but market, and when you change from one SSID to another everything still works and also does market I'd like to look into it.
[Nook Touch Android Development] endor43:
Thanks for taking the time to answer me. I have actually tried both the wifi and the usb uRamdisk from this ^ page, but neither allows TB to sense that I have USB debugging enabled, (though it seems button saviour thinks i do) The checkbox is checked, but is it possible that it is not actually enabled? I'm not inclined to think its a TB issue as it has worked before.

On a related note, I cannot adb using usb with the usb Uramdisk (thought wifi abd on the wifi uRamdisk works fine). I have written all the correct udev rules and such (using the nookcolor nookdevs example as a guide) and still nothing. Is that possibly related to the usb debugging issue? On the uRamdisk page someone mentioned something about dbus rules, do I need to do something about those?

I would think I should maybe reset and reinstall, but I've already done it once, though I'm not sure about the debugging problem in the previous installs, I definitely still couldn't use USB ADB.

Thank you again.

I've seen DB errors in logcat trying to use updated market on tn 1.6.x right after rooting.
[Nook Touch Android Development] XorZone:
I had no problems on Linux, but had to wipe and reinstall drivers on windows after 1.1 update.
[Nook Touch Android Development] endor43:
I am running linux (Ubuntu 10.10 x64) though, and have never been able to get usb adb working.

However, this does not seem to be the root of the issue, as USB debugging has in the past worked, but now it doesn't. Anyone?

Thank you.
[Nook Touch Android Development] eded333:
Probably, havent tried touchnooter :) (or any other automatic version)

and that is what I suposed, and helped people recover market by regenerating them.

Still, that hasnt got much to do with wifi.
[Nook Touch Android Development] cceerrtt:
adb over usb is working fine, are you sure you have uRamdisk with adb over usb enabled (not adb over wifi)?
[Nook Touch Android Development] GabrialDestruir:
It seems odd that the Market doesn't work for some in some places but does in others. But this is obviously completely unrelated to the Nook Touch or TouchNooter, if it were related to either it would be a consistent problem. I'd put money on the fact that if you took any other rooted NookTouch to a network where this issues occur those would have Market issues too. This is clearly something wrong within the network as stated before most likely issues with DHCP or settings inside the router. I know my NookTouch doesn't have a static address and therefore gets it from the DHCP so I know it's not an issue with the Nook itself.

I also noticed that at some point my USB debugging became disabled I'm suspecting after a reboot and I suspect that if I open up the uRamdisk I'll find that the proper lines haven't been changed to keep ADB persistent. The "fix" to this is that you have to reenable via NookColorTools etc. Anytime you reboot it'll go away again.
[Nook Touch Android Development] brashmadcap:
Trouble!

First of all thanks for going to all of this effort to do this. Looks like it's working really well for a lot of people. I am on 1.1.0 and ran everything according to the instructions exactly. Unfortunately I can't wifi ADB or USB ADB or use the market so I'm having a tough time getting any apps on my device. I tried emailing the amazon appstore APK to myself but it said it couldn't parse the APK. The market says a server error has occurred. Retry or cancel and return to the previous screen. Every time I try to download the APK from the browser, it crashes. Tried fixing permissions, etc. Any ideas anyone? Thanks.
[Nook Touch Android Development] ryanpl:
Gabrial, One of the apps I've been unable use has been Jorte. The nook refuses to load the app. I've rooted using touchnooter 1.1 and was wondering if youhave any idea why it doesn't load? I know apeine has had a similar experience. Do you think it's an issue due to changes B&N made to the software or is it a file you didn't include with Touch 1.1?
[Nook Touch Android Development] bretzke:
Possible fix for TouchNooter? Worked for me!

I found a possible fix for the TN problem. Hopefully someone else can verify.

I had done this multiple times (wipe, run TN, etc) all with no success, always hitting the server error. I had GMail and YouTube working, but no market.

This doesn't make sense to me, but I looked under BN settings and Device info and found my NT was no longer registered with BN. It was registered properly prior to running TN and not sure why it would blank registration or what caused this to happen. After seeing the missing info, I just ran the Oobe Reg app that's shows after rooting, which is just the BN registering app. Plugged in my info and submitted, and fired up Market (same home network, no changes to settings). It worked as did search within Market.

Not sure if I had a unique, jacked up NT.....but I hope it helps for someone else!

Good luck--

Stuck in Boot Loop...1st root attempt

So I seem to have bricked (more or less) my day old reader.

When I restart after screen turns black the device turns on but wont get past the load screen.

Tried to put the SD root card back in and reboot. It goes to the Touchrooter page and turns black but again doesnt boot past load screen after i take out sd card.

I tried to re WinImage the SD card but not luck.

Any suggestions or I guess I will have to exchange at Best Buy.
[Nook Touch Android Development] XorZone:
Do 8 failed boots cycle (boot it hangs, press power long 20 sec? until it reboots and again 8 times) it should revert to factory 1.0 firmware.

Then update to 1.1 again...
[Nook Touch Android Development] ros87:
Or simply boot the n2T-Recovery image or use CWM Recovery :)
[Nook Touch Android Development] dj_Duff:
Yep, same problem with Market: "A server error has occured. Retry, or cancel and return to the previous screen." Cancel and Retry.

My SE Xperia Market works ok with my wi-fi router, but Nook Market doesn't.

Gmail and Youtube works.

My Nook is registered.

So, how can i install any .APK?

There is no file browser (like ROOT explorer) to open and install apk.

What should i do?
[Nook Touch Android Development] Dopedangel:
The hard way learn to use adb wifi the easy way would be just add a filemanger apk to the touchnooter sd where all the other apps are.

I added dropbox, total commander and coolreader to my touchnooter sd card and when I used the card all the app were installed automatically.
[Nook Touch Android Development] dj_Duff:
yes, thanks! It helps :)

Well, still we need to find a solution with non-working Market (wi-fi problem?).

i have 2 wi-fi routers in my house, tried both (1 with disabled security) - still retry\cancel market error.

What is also interesting, that NOOK doesn't see my iphone wi-fi hotspot (made with Pdanet app) - though my android phone can see and connect to this hotspot and everything is working!
[Nook Touch Android Development] azmtbiker:
Is 1.1 firmware needed for this?

I am trying to sort out whether I want to reattempt root. My first try resulted in a bricked nook that I had to exchange. Trying to figure out where I went wrong.

Do I need to be on 1.1 firmware to make this work? The nook does seem to download this automatically.

Thanks

hi, I just rooted my simple touch and while everything works fine, market and adb do not work so I cannot install anything on it. youtube launched first time but now when i launch it, nothing happens. With market - I get error that it cannot connect. Gmail works fine though.

I have samsung phone as well and adb works fine with it. I did install usb drivers for nook and swithed usb debugging on.

Any ideas? i just need to install a couple apps and be done with it.

I received another PM today that the "Wait a day" method works.

Also I found that Multitouch (at least for me) is working with the latest Google Maps version as I was able to zoom in and out using it. This is just using the latest TouchNooter.
[Nook Touch Android Development] LastSilmaril:
Wait, so the NST hardware actually *does* support multitouch? I don't know, I'm not sure if I ever tried Google Maps. It's not something specific to the nooter, right? That doesn't make sense to me, anyway.
[Nook Touch Android Development] boriskey:
i take that back - after reboot market stopped working :(
[Nook Touch Android Development] yves84_2000:
root and registration

is it absolutly necesserary to be registred for root ? I can't registred my nook and so I'm wondering if that step is negociable ?

thanks
[Nook Touch Android Development] GabrialDestruir:
Theoretically if you skip the OOBE, instructions are probably on the wiki or something, that you once you were past it rooting would work. You could then when you wanted to register at a later date just run Oobe Reg.

I never made any changes specific to Multitouch, but I was definitely able to pinch zoom in Maps the other day. Testing it now the pinch zoom does work, but it's shoddy at best. Sometimes it'll zoom in when you want out and vice versa, but it's definitely there.
[Nook Touch Android Development] :
Seems you don't need to register.

Coming from a NC to a NST, the posted nooter worked, but lost market and adb. Installed after that following the guide from NookDevs, and have adb working. No real need for market, just needed to "adb install" root explorer and dropbox :)

EDIT: Market starting working today.
[Nook Touch Android Development] vulcan195:
I have the same problem (firmware 1.1) ... Market does not work. Youtube worked the first time and then did nothing. Gmail works and syncs fine.

So what did you have to do to make Market work.

Also ... can you enlighten me on which site hosts the apks for "Adb Install" "Root Explorer" and "Dropbox" ? I ask because Android Market will not allow you to download apk directly to a PC. I own a Galaxy S smartphone. I wonder if there is a way to download the apk to it and transfer ... any suggestions?
[Nook Touch Android Development] :
I waited ~12 hours before the market came up. That is all. Well, I'm also running a different uRamdisk that I got from NookDevs so I can have adb access.

Also, google. Duh ;)

http://bit.ly/rHOWxP

Then get adb working. Follow the NookDevs guide.

Just rooted my NST a few minutes ago, and same issues...

[Nook Touch Android Development] thomasmayer:
I also had problems with the market. Replacing Vending.apk with an older version gave me access again, however, in the version I have searching does not work.
[Nook Touch Android Development] insajd:
you had to wait till the next day, then the Market starts to work. Searching also does work in it.
[Nook Touch Android Development] GabrialDestruir:
I still find this whole wait a day thing to be odd.

On another note, has anyone who's used TouchNooter been able to access the in store content like "Reading Now" when at a B&N I was there just last night and mine came up showing all the right stuff when it first connected but later when I went to use reading now it refused to acknowledge it was in store. Curious if they've got something going on to block root devices from using In Store.
[Nook Touch Android Development] GabrialDestruir:
Interesting development, it seems, for the moment that while I'm unable to do the whole market thing (waiting for a day/12 hours/whatever) that the browser doesn't work. Can anyone else confirm this?
[Nook Touch Android Development] Jiv_au:
Not sure what you mean by browser doesn't work.

I've just used this TouchNooter to root my NST1.1, and as everyone has said the market is not working. Then I went and had a go with the stock browser and that seems to be working fine, except FC when I try to bring the keyboard up (touch the fields where you fill in stuff).

(in case there's is a remote chance of affiliation, I'll mention that I've done partition resizing as per --> http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1225196)

ED: Just adding that 12 hours later, market begins to work for me and everything is good.
[Nook Touch Android Development] kunchers:

Hi ,

I am new to nook and ANDROID. I have recently got one Nook Simple Touch. Upgraded the firmware to 1.1

I followed the procedure given in post 1 for installing TouchNooter 1.11.20 , and done. After reboot, logged into YOUTUBE, then GMAIL , syncd gmail account, everything mentioned in steps.

But as with others I found finally my Market not working. Can you people guide me how to make it working.

Also If I want to UNROOT the device now , how can I do it ???

Thanks
[Nook Touch Android Development] GabrialDestruir:
If you paid attention to this thread you'd know that the best way to make market work if it doesn't immediately do so is wait a day.
[Nook Touch Android Development] eyecannon:

Yup you are right. Market started working after a day ...................

Hello i am new to the device . after rooting and following all the steps. market says cannot connect to server, i guess it will work after a day but how can i install .apks as i dont see any file explorer in app drawer. plz help
[Nook Touch Android Development] LuVi:
Hallo everybody.

I unpacked my new NST 1.0.0 then i tried to root with touchnoter 1.11.20 from the first post.

Just a question... how many time i have to wait to the screen to flash black? Actually i wait 10 minutes the first time, then i removed the sd card and rebooted, and the NST fails to boot, several times.

Then i tried the nook reset, worked, and i upgraded to 1.1.0 before tryn g again to install touchnoter.

The upgrade went ok.

Now i'm trying again to install touchnoter, and again, i'm blocked at the boot screen, waiting to flash black since 15 minutes...

Is it all ok?

Updated: Ok, i pushed the power button, then the screen flashed black, and after the reboot i saw the device rooted, with the android settings.

I followed the instructions, setting up channel with gmail account on youtube, worked, then i try to sync the account on gmail, but after showing up briefly "loading conversations" my NST goes back to home android screen with google search bar.

And if i launch the market it shows me a generic "A server error has occurred. Retry, or cancel and return to the previous screen"

Updated: reinstalled touchnote, and now all works fine :) Just installed an app from the market, for testing purposes, amazon kindle :D.

Somewhere i read to install a modified vendor.apk, is necessary?

Any hint?

Thanks,

LuVi
[Nook Touch Android Development] GabrialDestruir:
The Market error is the infamous "Wait A Day" Error I'd guess, but there is no need to modify vendor.apk or use a special one, the vendor.apk that comes with touchnooter does everything including searches.
