[Nook Color Themes and Apps] dct3416:
I'm not sure about the gray boxes but as far as the ability to select the search button, it seems to be a common problem. Try recalibrating your screen: http://nookdevs.com/Recalibrate_the_NookColor_touch_screen It's still not perfect but much better than it was before calibrating.
[Nook Color Themes and Apps] thereddog:
I am doubtful about the calibration issue, I have no problems with accuracy anywhere else. The market app is just a bit off..
[Nook Color Themes and Apps] dct3416:
Well it won't hurt to try it. We have two Nooks and they both had this same problem. After recalibrating the screen is much more accurate. The market still isn't selected each and every time but it's 80% better than it was before.
[Nook Color Themes and Apps] MkFly:
I'm trying to revert to the old market so I can use Fast Web Installer with the AppBrain market.

Re-mounted /system as RW, moved Vending.apk to newVending.apk, and then replaced the oldVending.apk as Vending.apk.

Permissions are OK:

# ls -l /system/app/Vending.apk
-rw-r--r-- root root 1045694 2011-01-11 08:24 Vending.apk

But after rebooting, there is now NO Market! :(

Can anybody confirm the MD5 hash for the OLD market (which was installed after Auto-nootering):

# md5sum /system/app/Vending.apk
a5a995692cf28f132d5864b23209624d /system/app/Vending.apk
[Nook Color Themes and Apps] tboothie:
In the OP, there is a reference to use a different vendor.apk than what is included in the post. I had originally downloaded there apk that was attached to the OP and had the exact same problem. Once I switched to the apk that he links from another thread, all of my market issues are gone.
[Nook Color Themes and Apps] wvcachi:
Has anyone gotten a new version of the market running on nookie froyo? The version I tried didn't work . . .
[Nook Color Themes and Apps] nicbennett:
Thanks. Worked perfectly with posted instructions
[Nook Color Themes and Apps] Homer_S_xda:
Which APK did you try? I had this one running on Eclair and was about to try the Froyo version.

Homer
[Nook Color Themes and Apps] nmhusa:
I was able to run and install the new APK without copying to the system/app folder by simply using Root Explorer to browse to system/app first and change permissions to R/W. After that when I used Astro File Manager to install the new APK, I selected the option to UPGRADE and it installed perfectly.
[Nook Color Themes and Apps] phirephotog:
I installed via ADB and it's working great for me.

*EDIT

I should add that ADB is a steep learning curce. I'm windows savvy, mac retarted, unix stoopid, and android ignorant (i'm working on it). I've been trying for about a week to get ADB up and running (drivers mostly, but then command lines) but the marketplace represents the first time I've been able to actually use ADB properly. That being said there is one part I'm still in the dark about, the /dev/block/mmcblk0p5 /system part of a remount. Is that the system folder that has to be allowed to rewrite? Sorry if it's a dumb ? but well, I refer to the above list of my shortcomings.
[Nook Color Themes and Apps] Masterface7:
I auto nootered my nook today and it did not have the new market.
[Nook Color Themes and Apps] phirephotog:
Masterface the new market has to be installed. I don't think its in the auto nooter yet.

sent from my nootered nook color
[Nook Color Themes and Apps] A. Nonymous:
Damnit. One more thing to put on my to-do list for this weekend.
[Nook Color Themes and Apps] dalkor:
I have a strange problem with updating market as described in the first post. After I turn off my Nook it will not respond for power button for a while and after it turns on, there are no signs of new Vending.apk, only old Vending.apk I replased before rebooting.

I use autonooted 1.1.0.

UPDATE

Problem solved, I have forgotten to format/eject my SD with autonooter.

WHAT THE ****???

All BB stores in NYC only sell prepaid phones, so this is a bad sign!
[Nexus S General] neok44:
it's on average, one store may have more than another, and in some areas where no stores sell t-mobile they will have more because there is no alternative.
[Nexus S General] tekkitan:
Now I am not sure if I want to go to the store or just order online. Not sure if there is much of a buzz around here for the phone but I could be completely wrong and be empty handed if I go there physically...

Plus I don't get off of work until 9am so I can't go and wait in line

[Nexus S General] slowz3r:
What store actually has a booth set up?
[Nexus S General] krohnjw:
I know all stores are supposed to get 4 - the store nearest me has said they are getting none....so unsure. I'll call them Thursday morning to find out for sure if they have any - otherwise it's a ~20 minute drive to the next nearest store (that has confirmed they will have them)

[Nexus S General] deprecate:
if it is important you have to have this phone, order it online at 8am EST and go back to bed. :)
[Nexus S General] nxt:
I posted the AndroidAndMe URL to BB Mobile's Facebook Page and they confirmed it that 4 is the minimum a store will get.
[Nexus S General] slowz3r:
great to know :)
[Nexus S General] demo23019:
They didn't confirm you said that all stores will only get 4 if they dont have tmobile and then you just said minimum a store will get is 4 ...minimum

that doesn't mean only 4 per store
[Nexus S General] DOHCtor:
I live in Norco. Gonna be at the best buy off of Limonite before they open. Gonna buy 2 off contract :)
[Nexus S General] slowz3r:
Ill be getting one so you can be behind me, but really ill be there early as hell, before you *glare*
[Nexus S General] DOHCtor:
I work night shift. Get off work at 5am and gonna clean wash up before heading out to best buy with my brother. Make sure you put an "XDA Member" sticker on your car so I can recognize you lol
[Nexus S General] slowz3r:
Ill be dressed up as winnie the pooh ;) no but seriously chances are if you see a 19 year old with shaggy hair bout 5"11 that will be me :)
[Nexus S General] DOHCtor:
When you see a guy holding 2 nexus s box, that would be me.

[Nexus S General] nxt:
You guys are hilarious... No chance of me going to Riverside/Norco now that you guys are there. Hopefully no one else is at San Bernardino Best Buy. Still don't know when I'll be there, I probably won't be able to sleep Wednesday night.
[Nexus S General] slowz3r:
There is the Corona best buy off Cajalco as well if you wanted to hit that up

But the way i see it, if you cant sleep might as well go wait in your car ;)
[Nexus S General] ap3604:
LoL this is like black friday all over again... I could just imagine at one store an employee opening the doors getting trampled by a bunch of Xda'ers ;)
[Nexus S General] tks989:
my local best buy said they're getting 35. I'm not worried, just excited to get mine ASAP.
[Nexus S General] mingkee:
Does it sell contract and prepaid or sell prepaid only like stores in NYC?
[Nexus S General] onthecouchagain:
Is anyone planning to eBay theirs (whether their first box or a second one)? Think this will be a hot and rare commodity?

[Droid X General] overfiendx2:
Hello all,

While messing around I found a folder on the root of the phone named "root". Is this supposed to be there in a stock setup? If anyone could provide the directory structure of a fresh 2.2 OTA flash I would really appreciate it.

I'm ultimately looking for any differences in a rooted and stock directory structure. I'm trying to avoid an unnecessary flash, was hoping somebody had it handy.
[Droid X General] overfiendx2:
Even if you only answer the question of the" root" folder at the root of the phone file structure. I really appreciate it.
[Droid X General] drewbe70:
That is always there...has nothing to do with rooting the phone...
[Windows Phone 7 General] quinstar:
So,

I'm waiting for the Dell Venue Pro to be released, but it keeps getting delayed...

I'm wondering if some manufactureres would be releasing new phones close to the release of the dvp, thuss, maybe there would be some better phones by then...?

Anyone read something interesting?
[Windows Phone 7 General] MartyLK:
That's truly an interesting question for one reason: MS will be doing updating and all phones are suppose to be similar hardware wise...to avoid fragmentation. I believe, with the exception of screen types and camera res, that every WP7 phone currently released, and likely the CDMA versions included, use the same processing hardware.

The reason this is interesting is because, how will MS handle hardware evolution. These WP7 phones certainly can't remain the same forever. Eventually there will be 1.5GHz CPUs and higher res screens. How will MS handle incorporating phones equipped with higher speed CPUs and higher res screens into WP7 filled with the current tech. The whole point of WP7 is keep things level across the board. A current 1GHz SnapDragon certainly would not be level with a 1.5 or 2GHz FlamingLizard dual core CPU.
[Windows Phone 7 General] Calene:
Windows Phone 8 in a year?
[Windows Phone 7 General] Jim Coleman:
It'll be like games consoles, a new one every 5 years or so. After all, with the OS being as fast as it is on 1GHz processors, nobody cares about 1.5GHz ones. Except geeks.
[Windows Phone 7 General] FL5:
As a geek, I can say that I would insta-buy a FlamingLizard device. That name is just pure awesome.

Seriously though, certain hardware was specified because MS is providing the correct drivers to use that hardware correctly (glowers @ HTC). When new stuff hits, MS will pick a new item they like, make drivers for it, and tell OEM's what to use, just like they've done with the current line. MS has way too much invested in WP7 to let it get relegated to second-rate hardware. Even if Metro doesn't ask for a huge level of processing power, MS is heavily pushing live integration, and I believe that they will be all over stuffing powerful processors into phones in order to sell them as gaming platforms.
[Windows Phone 7 General] Hirnteri:
MS could go apples way.

Every year in november for example, ms could allow to use higher hardware.

Like: iphone 2g, 3g, 3gs, 4

And ms give us a wp7 version for each generation of wp7 phones
[Windows Phone 7 General] The Gate Keeper:
i think the best way for MS to give the hardware manufacturers more capabilities would be to set up benchmarking for all the different components. have the current components as the benchmark for example, and if they want to change say the CPU/GPU, it has to outperform the current benchmark. this way, it becomes a lot more like Android in the manufacturers can make the devices the way they'd like using the parts they'd like.

the only issue is, MS would need to be involved in creating every driver for every different component. i think at present it's quite restricted down to particular components so that you get a good boot up time and running experience, because there isn't redundant/generic drivers on the phone.
[Windows Phone 7 General] brummiesteven:
As far as I know the requirements aren't as specific as what people are saying, but more "Minimum Requirements"

From what I can remember it's something along the lines of

AT LEAST a 1ghz Processor

AT LEAST a 3.5" Screen

AT LEAST 8Gb Storage

etc etc.

So new devices can come out with faster processors, they wont though... Manufacturers will milk the cheapest hardware for as long as they can. I would expect a rehash of requirements each year.

The whole point of it all isn't really to keep things level, it's to make sure that underpowered devices aren't released that run the OS like crap (Eg Wildfire, Tattoo) and also so that devices aren't released running a version of the OS that's over a year old (Xperia X10)
[Windows Phone 7 General] cbebop7:
yeah thats what I was wondering. Those were the minimum requirements not specific reqs as people assume. The hardware manufacturers just stuck to those to save costs. I'm sure if MS did not have these then they would have used even lower end crap, thus destroying any chance WP7 has of attaining success.
[Windows Phone 7 General] ohgood:
+1 for the flaminglizard dual core cpu. or even blazedmonkey dual core cpu. or bullsballz dual core cpu. so long as it's dual core, i'll buy it. hell, i might even buy it if it ran windows, then dump a android rom on it and have a flaming-dog-ballz rooted/ unlocked dual core cpu smash phone.

HA :)
[Windows Phone 7 General] MartyLK:
LMAO...funny stuff! :D
[Windows Phone 7 General] brummiesteven:
I think what certainly would have happened, at least with HTC is they would have 1 premier device, probably the HD7 in it's current iteration. The rest of the devices would then go from Bad to Absolute ****. The Trophy or Mozart would probably have a smaller screen and a severely slow processor by today's standards.

What will happen eventually is someone will realise that the majority of the handsets are the same and release something with better specs than the current bunch in an attempt to stand out from the crowd. My guess is it will be LG
[Windows Phone 7 General] Cruzer1:
Here's my take on it.

First half of 2011:

* Chassis 2 handsets start appearing, being technically the same as launch devices.

Come November 2011:

* WP8 devices come consisting of second or third gen snapdragons and/or introduce another SoC like Hummingbird or OMAP.

* Chassis 3 handsets also start appearing (tablets or gaming style deisgn like PSPhone maybe?)

My wishes:

* Resolution bump for tablets and smartphones

* Hero phone introduced by Microsoft (much like the Nexus series), Zune/xbox phone anyone?

edit: looks like WP8 will actually be coming out end of 2012 http://pocketnow.com/windows-phone/windows-phone-7-mango-rumors

Please help,

My hd2 will not boot, I get the message "this device is unable to boot because you have turned it off incorrectly or tried to install an application from an untrusted source. press volume up to reset.... ...this operation will delete all data".

Memory card is okay, but I had important documents and photos on the phone which i need before I reset the phone. How can I access these? I have tried active sync but it is not detecting the phone.

thanks for any help
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] conantroutman:
I really dont think you will be able to, if you cant boot then you have no access to the device memory..............

If this phone belonged to Osama BinLaden, I dont think the FBI would reset it, im sure they would find a way to get the documents off. I am so frustrated.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] arzin:
lol try booting without the memory card or hacking the device with hspl and see if that works..
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] fred_up:
Maybe OBL would do regular backups and not rely on just one device for important documents.

Since he does his blogging on cassette tapes, I think he will still be using a Nokia 3210.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] conantroutman:
Looks like an iPhone user to me..............

@ the op

I wasnt suggesting that its impossible to get to the data, but I dont think it will be possible for you to get to the data..........

if you still have no success after booting without the sd card inserted and applying HSPL ( not sure that will work but its worth a try.....) then I would give up if I were you.

I suppose a repair centre may be able to remove the internal memory and copy the data for you :confused: maybe not but that would be about the only option left if you cannot get the phone to boot.........

Either that or you impersonate an FBI agent and try to blag access to a facility with the technology to access your phones memory under the pretense that you believe the handset contains information which may be potentially dangerous to national security, begin a romance with one of the lab technicians and attempt to sweet talk him/her into giving you the contents of the phone....

Good luck.........

you don't need an app. you select dialer-> contacts-> import/export->import from simcard.

have you tried MyPhoneExplorer to pull the numbers from your phone to PC?

probably not what youre looking for....
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mariosraptor:
Even with newest oxygen? Are you sure you have contacts in sim card? Try it in a simple phone. Ie sonyericsson.
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] vtmb:
I had a similar problem when I imported my contacts from a vCard file on my SD card. They didn't show up in Contacts but did show up in SMS and the call log.

The problem is that by default unsynced contacts are hidden from the list. To show them, hit Menu > Display options, tap your Google account, put a check in "All Other Contacts," then finally tap the Done button. Your unsynced contacts should show up now.

Although i could solve gps localisation it still needs more fixing like hw button leds and root issue etc.

And i think there are few permission issues as well.
