I'm concerned why Ek02/2.3.6 isn't being pushed out by now ?

Cant this end up being another EG31 if we don't see it fly out soon...

Oh right, durrr. I meant Eclair. I'm just going to stick to referring to them by their numbers instead of delicious names.

i also hope the gaming problem is fixed.. how maddening is it to see how perfect a game runs and have it suddenly close for no apparent reason?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] quick99si:
I haven't had this happen to me yet. Can you give me the name of a game that does it consistently so I can see what happens exactly?

Does anyone know of a widget or a way to port this onto the nexus, I have moved from an iphone and really miss the favourites section, when I was looking at the Razr I came accross this app / widget and think it would look amazing on the nexus.

If anyone can help me it would be greatly apprecated
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Evostance:
You could just tag friends as favourites and add the widget
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Big-A-Rob:
There are a ton of contact widgets in the market. Android Pro Widgets is good and what I use. You can star your favorite contacts and tell the widget to display only your favorites and sort them by most contacted, alpha, etc. It also has an ICS theme which works well on the Nexus.

Hey All

I got my Neo yesterday and I absolutely hate the unknown caller picture (the gray silhouette), so I decided to change it, I recently had an X10 Mini and a Galaxy Mini and both of them had that picture in their respective Phone.apk, but on the Neo I can't seem to find it, can anyone else point me in right direction??

[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] markp1989:
I have had my SGS2 for just over a week now, I have noticed something odd.

if i go to Settings>about Phone>Battery usage>Cell Standby It shows "time without a signal" to be very high compared to the actual figures, some days it says 100% which I know is not true as I have been receiving email notifications etc.

the strange thing is, that i have definitely had signal most of the time as I have been using actively using the phone.

My actual time without a signal should read about 10-15% as I travel on the Underground to go to university most week days.

I haven't noticed any other problems, just seems a strange reading.

any one else had this problem?

Thanks in advanced, Mark

got the same problem right now on vivo and glacier.
[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] Indirect:
Alright. This is for people who have followed instructions EXACTLY and cannot see "Nook Tablet" when they plug it in with the little /!\ next to it.

First, make sure that it's not loaded as an android device because generic drivers have taken it over.

Next, be sure to check for USB Mass Storage in Universal Serial Bus controllers. This is where some people have difficulties so I took the liberty to snap a picture from my desktop with what you need to uninstall and put a border around it to get my point across.

All you need to do is uninstall those drivers and you should see "Nook Tablet" /!\ when you scan for hardware changes. I know this because I had to do it.
[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] Indirect:
Actually added in the guide for you folks. :)
[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] jerrykur:
Doesn't work for me. Tried it on two systems.

Did you have the drivers for the Nook Color installed previous to installing the drivers for the Nook Tablet? Now about the development environment for ADK.

I have both of those on my system(s).

I think I will create a new VM and do a fresh install there. Thankfully with a USB install you can install Windows 7 64 in about 10 minutes.
[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] Indirect:
I haven't had Nook Color drivers.
[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] tonyp22:
Jerry, when I tried this before I too had troubles. I had to do a System Restore to a state previous to my having plugged in my NT. My thinking was along the same line as yours - once you have any semblance of a "normal" Nook installation (even a Color, it seems) you have to find a way to completely back out of that state. Your VM approach should get the job done. Just be sure to do the runmefirst step and check to make sure the .Android stuff is all done before plugging in the NT.
[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] yumms:
Here's how i fixed this issue on my system. Download Usbview www.nirsoft.net/utils/usb_devices_view.html

Disconnect NT, open Usbview, remove all references to Nook and Android. Reconnect NT...as long as auto mount is off Windows will allow you to install the adb drivers.
[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] kbs24:
in usbdview, do we "disconnect" or "uninstall" or "disable"? I'm going to try this method, if I can't get it all going I just realized I have a dual boot with WinXP on this machine so I will try doing it there.....Thanks to EVERYONE who has contributed to this issue, especially Indirect!!
[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] yumms:
You need to uninstall the drivers from Usbview.
[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] jerrykur:
Good find. I created a separate install and it worked fine.
[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] kbs24:
That worked! In Usbview there were like 10 instances of various android and nook which I uninstalled. Also with Usbview, as soon as I connected the Nook Tablet, I could see which mass storage device it was I had to update the drivers on. Perfect. THanks again to everyone. Now I know I will keep the tablet. It is much better deal than the Kindle Fire which I also tried out.
[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] kbs24:
Sorry, this is probably silly question, but how do I get Windows to recognize my newly rooted nook in explorer? It is connected and the nook says it is ok to move files to pc, but I can't find it in windows.....I'll try rebooting the pc....

OK, I rebooted pc but still not showing up in windows. I opened usbdviewer and there is an entry, actually 3 entries that seem to point to it, in fact one names it, says it is connected, and says it is drive letter u:. hmmmmm. The two other entries are "unknown" and also both "unconnected" and they refer to the same usb port that my nook tablet is plugged into. I suspect that they are the nook and its sd card and should be showing up as drive letters in windows, but they are not. I should be able to figure this out but I can't seem to.

GOT IT. Was in device manager as composite device (I could tell by the port) so I let windows automatically update the drivers and it reverted to a mass storage device and now is showing up in windows. Thank god.
[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] kreott:
I am trying to root my Nook Tablet, and seem to be stuck because my system is recognizing the preexisting Nook driver. I've used USBDeview to uninstall Android and Nook drivers, and tried (not sure if successfully) to disable automount. But every time I connect tablet, it automounts and installs drivers. So I'm not able to update driver to 'usbdrivers' that will enable me to root the device. I've looked online various places and cannot so far find a solution.

UPDATE: Every time I connect the nook tablet (after uninstalling drivers in USBDeview) win7 (64bit) says 'Installing Device Driver Software' and then installs tablet as 'USB Mass Storage Device' - I assume I need to turn something off to stop this from happening, so I can update the driver manually?
[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] Dfroelich:
Recheck to make sure that both USB debugging boxes are checked on and that the Auto-Mount is unchecked.

That was my first problem, and those boxes fixed it. Later on, I could install the drivers, but the nook and zergy script would never recognize my nook, so I used another computer that has never had android drivers. (I even used USBDeview to uninstallall android looking drivers.)

Later, I reset the nook to stock and then followed the "Troubleshooting" section at on the article: "How to root the NOOK Tablet, install the Android Market" at lilliputing.com

I was then able to recognize the nook on my original computer.

Good Luck.
[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] phil0sophic:
where do you set usb debuging and mount onte tablet?
[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] kdraw:
Many Thanks!

Not to sound like a lot of others, but here goes anyways...

This site has helped me out more than a four-year degree in IT has! You all rock. Many thanks to everyone. I now like my new Nook. The B&N interface was way too limited.

I am absolutely a noob, but still learning.

[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] Tel864:
Same here. I've been digging in Windows and building computers for years, but as tablets go, I'm a noob. I've lurked here for a long time without joining, so I felt like it was time to signup and give my thanks to the folks that do the impossible here.
[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] Dfroelich:
Did you download the apk for the tgps launcher app? When you open it with package manager, click start, then development. Those boxes are on the next screen.

I don't have enough posts to add links, but you can download (directly from your nook) that apk on the main root page under: "here is an app to pull up usb debugging menu"
[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] FloridaPhil:
OMFG! I am going to throw my laptop out the F***ing window!!

Every time I delete the drivers for Mass USB storage and the Nook, Vista just automatically reloads them as soon as I refresh the device list.

If I do not refresh the device list then there are no devices showing to update the drivers for.

If I try to install the drivers manually I get the infamous 'Windows has determined the driver software for your device is up to date'

If I try to force load the drivers by telling Windows I have a disk and point at the drivers provided it tells me it didn't find an appropriate driver.

6 hours straight - this is killing me!

Anyone?
[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] jreed012:
Ok, I think I know what might be happening here.

There are 2 (yes two) "USB Debugging" settings in the settings on the Nook. I wasn't able to get the "Nook Tablet" to show in Device manager. I FINALLY went back in, and saw the second (well in my case the first) USB Debugging option. Originally, I checked the second USB Debugging option. I went back in, and saw the first one on the menu. Once I checked that I saw the Nook Tablet device in device manager.

Edit - Note of clarification. Yes, these two USB Debugging options are on the same settings screen. If you see one, you'll see the other.
[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] suicideclown:
if it were me i would try uninstalling the driver and clicking the box that says to also delete the driver from your computer so it wont auto install back.
[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] FloridaPhil:
Well, having exhausted everything trying to get the Nook listed with a ! next to it, I just ignored everything else because I had an ADB device showing. 10 minutes later, ROOTED!!! Yay.
[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] Dfroelich:
I see you got it fixed...congrats!

If anyone else has the issue:

I had the same problem (on win7) and that article I referenced above from lilliputing solved it for me.

In a nutshell:

1) make sure usb debugging is checked (both)

2) automount is not checked

3) uninstall all android looking drivers in USBdreview

Try again - if still no ! by the nook in device manager...

redo 1-3 above

4) follow the steps in the lilliputing article

Otherwise, just find a computer that has never had android drivers installed on it before.
[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] brices21:
just one more thing... make sure windows is configured to NOT try to automatically install drivers from windows update. see my description here: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?p=19573474#post19573474

Otherwise, I completely agree :)
[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] rcchusid:
One more thing made it work in my case. After multiple failures I read a comment that it is necessary to uncheck and then recheck USB debugging for it to work properly.

if possible, i think that my nook is half rooted. when my nook it on is is still in the old format, however, when i plug it in it shows up as android on the device manager. how can i just get rid of it all and start over? i have tried your one step unroot and it says unsuccessful
[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] Indirect:
Emlee, force 8 bad boots. Turn on the tablet, wait until the white screen with the n (after the black screen) and then hold power+n for about 15 seconds until it powers off and repeat until it formats itself.

[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] rvr350:
ok, my NT was rooted previously with another laptop. That laptop died and i just got a new laptop.

Due to some user error, now i have to re-root. I did a factory restore (8x interrupt boot). I am unable to see the big device number that is required to root.

I went into control panel and make sure i can override the best suitable driver for the device that i pick. Then, i uninstall any android like usb drivers using usbdeview, and scan for new hardware. I got the nook tablet with ! next to it. I then update driver, and it came back as an Android Composite ADB Interface.

I tried to run zurgy again, but still no numbers to move forward for my root. And i have uncheck/check the 2 distinct debug options, and automount off.

EDIT: just have to do a system restore, and wipe all instance of android driver, and somehow it worked...

Any help is much appreciated. On my last laptop, it all took like 3 minutes, and i'm getting frustrated why the new windows7 laptop isn't corporating.

Does anyone know how to get the device to show up in the cmd window when it searches for a devices after running the "NookandZergy" . batch file.

following the instructions from

My Way

I Went through two Windows 7 Pro Machines one 64 bit, and one 32 bit, then tried Ubuntu, none of these worked.

On a last ditch effort I booted up a Windows XP Virtual Machine in VMware Workstation 8, and it rooted without a hitch, as soon as it saw the device I told it to not check with windows update for drivers and pointed it at the Drivers in the USB directory, they worked perfectly, after which Zerg saw my nook and within minutes I was rooted de-bloated and installing mm apps from the Android Market

Now this is just a sugestion as it work perfect for me, it was a clean install of Windows XP SP3 with no Firewall, AV or anything, only updated with latest patches from Microsoft

Thanks to all the Devs for there Work!
[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] n8w:
I had similar issues with not being able to get my old drivers to go away, consequently blocking my efforts, but once I followed directions, used the 64x version of usbview, opened as administrator, removed the drivers, and switched driver mode to manual (no more automatic driver installs), my root process went smooth as could be.
[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] osiris31415:
hello, i am new to the site and need help. i want to say thank you first for everyone making all the info for rooting the NT available.

that being said, i am having trouble. i bought my NT with the sole idea of rooting it. i have gone through the process about 8 times now and always get stuck at the same spot. i set the NT to usb debugging mode, both selections checked, uncheck auto-mount. i do the runmefirst.bat and install the drivers, properly according to my computer and the runmefirst.bat which says to run nookzergy. but when i run nookzergy it does not find my attached NT. i have used usbview to make sure my computer is clean of android drivers, i have system restored, and repeated several times. i am stumped. i am running Windows XP Media Center Version 2002 SP3.i have looked through the forums and seen tha question asked, but most people either figure it out or it just works before an offical answer is posted. i would greatly appreciate any ideas, thoughts, help or advice anyone has. thanks a bunch!

[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] curtislanham:
Cause - Windows Default Drivers

I had the same problem too. My problem was that no matter what, Windows installed its own drivers automatically. I could always update the driver after the fact, but that never worked. I could never get device manager to show a "composite" device. I decided to take the next step. I let Windows install the default driver. If I remember correctly, one shows up as a mass storage device, and the other as some ADB device. I right-clicked on both to get the name and path of those drivers. Next, I uninstalled them through device manager. After that, I found them on the hard drive (one was called usbstor.sys, I can't remember the other one). I removed them from their default location to my desktop. After making sure the USB debug and automount options were set correctly, I connected the Nook to the computer. This time, Windows couldn't find the driver :) and I was able to point it to the customer driver folder. This time, device manager installed both devices, including the composite device. I remember having to go through two "add new hardware" wizards. I chose the same driver for both. After that, the script recognized my device and listed the serial number. The root worked flawlessly after that. Finally, I moved the default drivers from my desktop to their default locations. I did all of the above on Windows XP SP3. I hope that helps.
[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] gregmacdonald77:
I've tried my desktop, two laptops and a VM. Get the same resault with all. I see Android Composite ADB Interface under Android Phone in my Device Manager but no devices are listed when I run the NookandZergy bat file.

cutislanham method looks like it may have some promise. I'll try that later today when I more time to spend on the computer.
[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] Darksun280:
I don't think his idea is going to work I have the same issue as well and I can get it to come up as a nook color tablet with an exclamation point and then load the drivers and it changes it's name to "android composite ADB interface" but 4 computers and 30+ tries later Zergy is still not able to detect it.

That usb mass storage shows up in the list with the nook table listed as well. If you go by instructions you should only have to mess with the usbmass storage one IF the nook tablet is not showing up as a choose able device.
[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] gregmacdonald77:
Well I tried curtislanham's solution on my Win7 Starter netbook and my XP 64-bit desktop with no joy. It was worth a try. One difference from my problem to what curtislanham was having was that he couldn't get "composite" in is ADB entry. Once he did it worked. I had "composite" in my ADB entry before trying his methed, and still do after reloading the drives but still can not get nookandbergy.bat to recognize my nook tablet. This blows!:mad:
[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] BikerRick:
I had the same issue with not getting the Nook device recognized. What I found was that the info in the file %USERPROFILE%\.android\adb_usb.ini was empty. This file is created when you run the runmefirst.bat file. So I just ran the following line of code from runmefirst.bat file from a command prompt to write the info it needs:

echo 0x2080 >> "%USERPROFILE%\.android\adb_usb.ini"

After I did that, when I ran the nookandzergy.bat file, it recognized my Nook with the device number and I was able to root.
