I know you're not super-douche like some. My point is this, 6 months ago if you would have asked me to decomplile an apk, modify m10s, edit XMLs, read smali, build a ROM, I would have told you I didn't know how. Now I do. Because I agreed with you, there wasn't what I wanted here. You are not beyond learning, that's the beauty of the human mind. I don't have some awesome computer setup, just a laptop. I don't have a lot of free time (full time job, wife, friends, etc.) - and yet, I mod stuff and share it. You are not "incapable", you are content. If you were *truly* upset, you would seek change by your own hands. I hope you do, it would be nice to see another "super-noob" (like me) pick up the torch and learn how to mod, then share it. Themeing is cake btw. Peace.

I mean..honestly. You're right...I would love to get into theming and such. It's just extremely over whelming whenever I start looking into it. I like to think I'm computer savvy..but I build Crane trucks for a living. I'm a grunt

[HTC EVO 3D] sgt. slaughter:
Lacking???????

Wtf are you talking about. You must be blind to say we have a bunch of stock roms and crap. Most every ROM has a ton of tweaks done to it. What development tweaks are in the evo4g roms that we don't have in ours? Besides the whole CM and ICS thing which we kinda still have.

I'm just lost as to what tweaks and development you think is lacking here. Hell we have one of the damn best kernel devs I've seen here doing crazy stuff every day.
[HTC EVO 3D] Serren:
il Duce is 100% spot on. If you think development is lacking, switch phones or keep your needy wishes to yourself. You do sound like a demanding, whiny user. If you cant dev worth a crap, how do you justify calling out those that do?

Dev's do what they want. If their goals and yours line up, then your in luck. Otherwise, complaining about it only makes you, and the other complainers look disrespectful. Because there is no way your negative words on a screen are going to influence them. Just the opposite most likely.

And there is almost nothing anyone can do until source for our phone is released. We already have everything we can have until source is released. If you don't understand that, then there is no hope for you. Unless you can pull code out of your butt?

So sit back, relax and wait. Or get a phone where things are more exciting for your tastes. Just know that in three to six months afterwards, most of those devs will find a new shiny phone to play with. That is the nature of this hobby at this point, like il Duce also said.
[HTC EVO 3D] Rippley05:
Oh god.

Thanks for the input. Run along now..

[HTC EVO 3D] pstevep:
I will chime in real quick. I agree with Duce 100%. Also let's not flame Ripley for his opinion, he isn't as duce said a super douche. There are far far worse people here. My mantra has always been, be the change you want to see. That's how our team started. Ripley if you want to learn we would all love to help, we have a guide thread that is nothing but love and knowledge.

Yeah, it's easier said than done. We're not on a GSM provider and don't have a bucket full of other Android devices to choose like T-Mobile, VZW, or AT&T.

I'm just excited in general :) I know sooner or later cm9 will grace us. And I'm happy with my miui right now... (which no one mentioned btw) I think there is a ton of activity for those phone compared to others. I root and mod phones for people all the time and some phones have the crappiest selection or none at all. And don't forget, it IS A HOBBY for a lot of these guys. **** I barely have time to flash a rom let alone build one... so just be grateful people are dedicating their time for the rest of us!
[HTC EVO 3D] ssojyeti2:
I also tried to get in to theming but when I went to your guide, just like every other learn-how-to-theme thread, it just seemed like it was it was a bunch of links to things that you need but not any tutorial on how to use them. I didn't really find what I was looking for. However I did learn in the MIUI theming thread by hockeyfamily (I'm pretty sure you helped with that) because he went in depth and showed step by step on how to get started. I think we need more guides like that.
[HTC EVO 3D] il Duce:
here's what's cool about that thread, super theme gods hang out and help, so you read the guide of choice, then ask your questions, we've helped out quite a few people :)

Sorry for opening a new thread on this, but as new users can't post - for a good reason, I am sure - in the dev's section, I, being a new user, can't as well...

I have the same problem as described by haggardh and arko.amit, which is the nt not showing up when running the NookandZergy.bat after following all the steps mentioned, hopefully, properly. Running the NookandZergy.bat as admin gives an error message stating the command "adb" is unknown.

Just hoping to emphasise that this issue might be statistically significant (and worth looking into)...other than that this is just another me-too-post. Sorry once more.

[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] kerry63:
My Solution to Root

I experienced some of the same problems you and haggard wrote about and even some other users that were experiencing no serial number showing up when running the Nookandzergy.bat. After reading and a little experimentation of my own I got mine rooted last night. My test machine was Windows XP SP3 I am skipping the tgps.apk part on the Nook because I ran into no problems with it. It did goes as the instructions said. With that said make sure you put all the checks in the right place in the debug menu.

First of all if you can't run adb then you have the adb.exe in the wrong folder or you are trying to execute with the wrong path. Should be in the C:\ntroot directory. Open a command line up (Start > RUN >CMD)

You will need to change to directory c:\ntroot

Once your cmd prompt reads C:\ntroot you should be able to run adb. You really shouldn't have to unless you are running into a problem with the serial number not showing up after running zerg. If that is the case you can always run "adb devices" that will start the adb daemon and then run the command and tell you rather or not your computer is seeing the nook. If you get no devices connected then you are back to the driver issue.

My solution for the driver issue I got the same USB Mass Storage Device and then would try and change the driver to the Android one, but kept getting the above problem when trying to run zerg.

So I uninstalled the driver (Android and USB Mass Storage) and unplugged the Nook.

Then in Windows Explorer went to the usbdrivers folder and right-clicked on the file android_winusb.inf and clicked "install"

I then plugged the nook back in and the driver showed correctly in Device Manager as an Android device.

I then ran zergy again and it all worked an the ID showed up correctly.

I hope this helps.

[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] Wurstwarenfachverkäuferin:
Thanks for the suggestions. The OS is Win 7 64 if that matters.

I have de- and reinstalled the usb-driver several times in the device-manager (installing by "install..." from explorer's context menu doesn't work for this file and this OS) - the device just doesn't show up in command line, regardless whether I use the adb devices command or run the nookandzergy.bat.
[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] kerry63:
Sounds definitely to be the driver. I read the link posted by AugustusBot helpful, but not sure it would work for sure. I had to uninstall and reinstall until finally I ran the INF like you mentioned that didn't work for you.

Does the device show up with an exclamation or as a USB mass storage device?
[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] Wurstwarenfachverkäuferin:
With no specific driver installed (intentionally, that is), the device is shown as both usb mass storage device and "nook tablet" with the yellow exclamation mark within the device manager.

I also used that usb deview tool mentioned in the other thread to wipe all usb devices. This doesn't do a permanent uninstall - as deleting the driver would. Unplugging a device and plugging it in again and it would just show up as it did before... Either way, the tool doesn't help here.
[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] kerry63:
Have you right clicked on Nook tablet within device manager clicked properties > driver > update driver software > update driver > browse my computer for driver software > Let me pick from a list of device drivers > Have Disk > Browse > C:\ntroot\usbdrivers\android_winusb.inf

I just tried that process on a Windows 7 64bit and got an error saying the device driver is not compatible with a 64 bit OS. If you get the same error you may have to find the 64 bit version of that device driver or if you are familiar with working with XP classic within Windows 7 you may have better luck using it through that.
[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] dodgepot:
Try right clicking on the mass storage device and select to install manually then install from a specific location, have disk, then select the inf file for the driver... might work.
[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] Wurstwarenfachverkäuferin:
I did install the driver both ways using the bat-file and manually through device manager, pointing to the folder that contains the inf-file. Actually, you can't point to a file but only to folders (saying "you", I mean "me", of course; is that different on your machine?)

(Why do I get a prevent-spam-wait-5-mins-message editing my own post? Weird.)
[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] armysean77:
I have successfully updated the drivers under Device Manager and it changed from nook device with exclamation mark to android composite interface and and it still does not show up when running the nookandzrgy.bat file. I tried the methods listed here to no avail. Any new info out there?
[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] dodgepot:
Download the settings file listed in the post via your tablet, install using the package installer, enable debugging (checking both debugging options) run the script to root.
[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] rling:
I had no end of difficulties with the root process.

Running Windows 7 32 bit.

Procedure to root instructions neglect to emphasise the NEED to DROP the Nook Tablet into debug mode first before connecting it to the PC. I didn't do this, and so Window drivers were installed automatically on first connect, and this started a long trip trying to replace the drivers to no avail. Eventually managed to removed the drivers from all USB using the tools from another thread.

After that, I managed to install the USB drivers and have the Nook show up as an Android phone.

Unticked/ticked all debug mode a second time to ensure they are locked in place.

Run the Zergy.bat and get the numbers for ID of the tablet, and the thing starts to proceeds and then stops with an error stating that it is not a Tablet device... 8(

Gave up and re run the entire procedure on a Windows XP laptop (fresh install) and everything went through without a hitch. I now have a rooted Nook Tablet.

I suspect something in Windows 7 is interferring with the second script.

Key point:

Put Tablet in debug mode first.

Untick and retick the USB connection on Tablet before each attempt to run Zergy script.
[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] rling:
Make sure the Tablets is in debug mode and automount is unticked. Even if it is set correctly, untick and retick the settings BEFORE each attempt to run the Zergy script.

In my case, I manage to get it ot recognise the tablet, but the scripot aborted with an error stating that it is not a tablet device... 8(

Running the same procedure again on another laptop running xp worked.
[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] Wurstwarenfachverkäuferin:
If I got that right, you changed the paths replacing %userprofile% with c:\ntroot. Sorry for asking, as I should be able to find out myself, but... are there more changes made? (The runmefirst.bat you used is not the same (anymore) as in the root-thread by indirect.)

However, I replaced %userprofile% with c:\ntroot in both scripts. The outcome was an empty .android folder being created in c:\ntroot by the runmefirst.bat - this didn't happen before. Other than that still no device listed by adb.
[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] Wurstwarenfachverkäuferin:
I gave it one more try and used the runmefirst.bat from the usbdrivers.zip - after that the nook was listed and more or less rootable (more: it kind of worked; less: the root script's command line just closed at some point within the debloating leaving the device in Idontknowwhat state... but it still seems to work)

However, as there are two files named runmefirst in the whole package, people should be told which runmefirst.bat to actually run first (or at all).

Thanks for all the advice! It did help.
[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] joe9999_19:
Solved

I tried several computers and could not get the nook to install with the unknown devise question mark. I finally figured it out. I had an SD card already installed in the Nook. It kept getting registered as a mass storage device. I removed the SD card and started with a fresh install of XP. Everything worked perfect.

This does seem to show my rss feeds but it isn't the same as the reader it takes me too when i subscribe to an rss feed.Under the news app when i hit feed manager it don't show any my folders or feeds im getting.When i subscribe to a feed the app it takes me into shows everything,but when i close that there is no way that i have found to get to the same app unless i subscribe to a new feed.I can try to post screenshots if you like.

If anyone is interested, I built a tool to root the Lenovo K1

I tested it on K1_A301_04_04_111017_US.

This is a stock image with SU installed. However, you could replace the system.img image with any custom image you want to make, if you don't like the stock one.

Warning: This will delete everything on your tablet.

It would be possible to change the Nvflash to only load a rooted boot image, if that's what you wanted. You could just flash in the boot.img which would give you a ADB root, but that's your call and you'll have to change the loader.

Also, if you hook this up and want to use ADB to connect then you will need to build driver definitions and add 0x17EF to the adb_usb.ini. Here are the driver definitions.

[Google.NTx86]

;Lenovo

%CompositeAdbInterface% = USB_Install,USB\VID_17EF&PID_740A

%CompositeAdbInterface% = USB_Install,USB\VID_17EF&PID_740A&MI_01

Unless you found a new set than the one already circulating, that set of Lenovo leaked keys does not work on the Thinkpad, unfortunately.

[Thinkpad Tablet Android Development] O_G:
Unfortunately this is true, Forum request thread had been temporary closed. We have had a massive increase in devices being released. Having a forum for all of them would be a tall order.

The forum request thread was set up in good faith, to try to highlight the popular devices so forums could be opened. But as pointed out it quickly went down hill by people demanding things (put politely). I myself have been a target of some trolling on not opening sub-forums. Even though it is totally out of my hands (its down to the site admin) Its a growing issue here on XDA Developers. Hope fully the admin will come to a good solution to the issue.

If anybody notices before me that that thread has been re-opened, please let the good people of this forum aware of it. I am sure others will want to post there interest.

Sorry to the OP for taking this thread off topic, but i wanted to answer that as quickly as possible. I will add this to the read before posting thread to take all other questions. So please no more about this in this thread.
