[Nook Touch Android Development] case-sensitive:
contact provider?

No problem!

I did run into problem with another (google) contact for which there seems to be no substitute. As a number of people have noted, the Contact app that comes with NST stops working after root. So the first thing I did was to copy from the Contacts.apk and ContactsProvider.apk and move them to /system/app (and with the appropiate permissions) using root explorer. No dice. Next, I copied these two apps from another android tablet running android 2.1 and moved them to NST, and still no dice! Now, NST does come with its own ContactsProvider.apk, and I've tried to run the 2.1 Contacts.apk with or without this NST contactsprovider (in the latter case, by rename the NST contacsprovider).

After I copied the 2.1 contacts to NST (and nothing happened), I used ES File Explorer to check if the contact app was installed, and surprising it was not. And when I tried to manually install the 2.1 Contacts.apk I got an error message. Here is what I got from log collector. Any suggestions?

THANKS!

(NOTE: I already got rid of the Nook Color contact apk before I ran the 2.1 Contacts, so I don't understand why it complains about /system/app/Contacts.nookcolor.apk)
