dkp1977, I had the same problem until yesterday. Got the update now, but can't explain what was going on before. Might have been a bug in marketplace.
[Windows Phone 7 Apps and Games] dkp1977:
I downloaded it via the phone. And I uninstalled and installed it again as well. The game is full version, not trial and it states it's version 1.0. So unless there's no newer version on the marketplace, I assume that there has to be some bug whatsoever. Maybe it will disappear with the next update. I'll wait and see. Thank you guys. :)
[Windows Phone 7 Apps and Games] jabberworx:
new game I'm working on: http://twitter.com/#!/JabberWorx/status/53697952463593472

let me know what you guys think!
[Windows Phone 7 Apps and Games] Foxandxss:
The free update worked for me. I had the game since beginning and now that is paid, I have the last version without pay.

btw, I like the BSO of the game.
[Windows Phone 7 Apps and Games] tiny17:
:p Made me laugh.
[Windows Phone 7 Apps and Games] jaraya13:
Hahaha, good one!

One question, are you planning an update for C&V? I already won the game, and I will like new levels. Thanks!
[Windows Phone 7 Apps and Games] jabberworx:
I'm doing some major code re-writes for Meteor Mania and building up tech, I'm hoping I can do the same for Chicks'n'Vixens soon afterwards.

I made some major design mistakes when building the game the first time which is the cause of some of the lag.

So yeah, hopefully I'll do a major update (by which I mean HUGE) including new levels and stuff but probably not for another three or four weeks (sadly).

Still hoping to get the update out before Angry Birds on WP7 :D
[Windows Phone 7 Apps and Games] dkp1977:
Take your time, the game is great. And I'm looking forward to the update it will recieve. But still, no hurry. ;)
[Windows Phone 7 Apps and Games] nowei:
Good luck, hope that doesn't cut into your downloads.
[Windows Phone 7 Apps and Games] lynxinteractive:
Good one! Got a little chuckle out of that one.
[Windows Phone 7 Apps and Games] jabberworx:
Rovio should be more worried that I'll cut into their downloads :D
[Windows Phone 7 Apps and Games] jabberworx:
New verseion of chicks'n'vixens will be getting released soon: http://wmpoweruser.com/chicksnvixens-being-updated-to-no-donuts/

Keep an eye out :)

Yes I know Angry Birds will be released around this time, but I'm hoping people still find this update, I've poured a lot of love into it and smoothed out the rough edges as much as I can.

It will initially be a free ad-supported game HOWEVER I will convert it to a paid version, those who download the ad supported version will get the full version free (just like the first time).

The reason I'm not releasing it as an update is because the levels have all been redesigned and new gameplay elements have been added. Suffice it to say it broke backwards compatibility with saves both technically and gameplay wise.

I hope that won't be too much of a problem, like I said if you download the ad supported version it will eventually become an ad-free paid version so no hard feelings to anyone :)
[Windows Phone 7 Apps and Games] RoboDad:
That looks great! I'll be anxiously waiting... :D
[Windows Phone 7 Apps and Games] jabberworx:
Just letting everyone know the game should be on the app store now :)
[Windows Phone 7 Apps and Games] andycted:
Cool, but I wouldn't have noticed really... can you update the first post ?
[Windows Phone 7 Apps and Games] jabberworx:
oh sorry about that. Just updated the main post :)
[Windows Phone 7 Apps and Games] RoboDad:
You should probably also update the Zune link to the new game. When I clicked the link, it brought up the original. Of course, it was easy to find the new one using search :).
[Windows Phone 7 Apps and Games] jabberworx:
oooh, thanks for the heads up!
[Windows Phone 7 Apps and Games] jabberworx:
I just submitted an update to make the ads smaller. Also added an option in the settings screen to switch to the 'classic' arrow/trajectory dot system instead of the newer trajectory display system :)

I've noticed a review saying the game lags a bit, anyone expereince this? (I honestly don't, I spent ages optimizing it so it's aa bit disheartening when it still lags on some peoples phones)
[Windows Phone 7 Apps and Games] aussiedog:
Hi Jabberworx,

First let me say that I have loved Chicks 'n' Vixens since day one and still continue to play it frequently. The soundtrack alone makes me smile every time I hear it. Great work.

Now, having said that I think that something is 'off' with the new version. I don't know programming 'speak' so I don't know if it's screen sensitivity or what may be causing it, but here's what I am experiencing:

On the 'main menu' selecting the 'play' button is fine; but then all subsequent screens are very hard to select anything (i.e. city selection, levels, pinch to zoom on levels). I must very slowly and deliberately make a selection to choose anything. If I tap a selection too quickly (a normal tap in my mind) the screen jitters (moves slightly) acknowledging some kind of input, but not accepting it. It's a little frustrating and is taking away from a great user experience that was not prevalent in the original release. The 'cannon' itself seems to work just fine. I hope that explained that well enough for you. I am using a T-Mobile USA HD7.

Once again, thank you for a great game. Take care.
[Windows Phone 7 Apps and Games] jabberworx:
Hmm, interesting problem. Do you notice it when you click on options in the pause screen?
[Windows Phone 7 Apps and Games] aussiedog:
Here's the strange part; I had to press the 'pause' button three times to 'get' in, but the 'return', 'settings, 'replay', and 'exit' buttons within worked as designed and effortlessly.
[Windows Phone 7 Apps and Games] jabberworx:
Ah no worries. The buttons all use different systems (for some reason :P) and some of the buttons still need updating (notably level select button, pause button, next button, etc).

I will DEFINITELY fix that for you in the update coming after the next one. The next update is already submitted so I can't override it (as much as I'd like to) but once it's done I'll submit the fixes you so desire :)
[Windows Phone 7 Apps and Games] jabberworx:
The 0.10A update has just been approved for the marketplace, version 0.11A with the fixes to the buttons mentioned int he last post along with a few tweeks to levels and hats (for the foxes) has just been submitted, so hopefully it will be approved by mid next week :)

[Android Apps and Games] convolution:
Just a little thing I figured out that can give you the ability to save the progress of ANY game.

This can be helpful if you are playing games like where you are about to do this level that is very hard and you want the ability to restart the battle if you die and it's game over.

STEPS:

1. Make sure you have Titanium Backup installed.

2. Where ever you want to restart at, go to that spot or stage or whatever in the game, and then save the game and exit.

3. Go to Titanium Backup, go to the backup/restore tab at the top, go to your game, and click it and press "backup".

4. Then go to your game, and either beat the boss or stage or win the poker game or whatever or lose everything and die.

5. If you died, you can go back to Titanium Backup, go to the same tab and click on the game, and press "restore" data only. Congrats, you get another chance at doing the stage again!

6. If you did beat the stage, you can make another back up!

+1 Thx if this saved you time on your games!
[Android Apps and Games] deathsled:
What's the point in saving your game, making a titanium backup, and then restoring the data?

Why can't you just load from your save point again? That's pretty much the idea behind save points....
[Android Apps and Games] Namuna:
As one example, this is a great option for Gun Bros, as far as shopping for which Guns you want.

In the game's Store, you get to see the weapons' stats, but the only way to see it in actual action is to buy the thing outright and then start using it.

Right now, there's no option to sell anything you've already bought, which is a pretty big frustration especially later in the game when the decent weapons take a pretty long time to get to because you have to build up the money...So if you buy a weapon and end up wishing you got the other one, then you're SOL.

This Saving and restoring fixes that.
[Android Apps and Games] convolution:
Tonnes of games don't design savepoints.

For example, in "World Series of Poker Holdem", I am playing in the final table of the WOSP tournament. I have pocket Aces, and this guy goes all in. If I call and lose the hand, I will be knocked out, and the $250k I put in will be gone.

Therefore, I save the game, call his all-in, and if I lose, I can restore the game and NOT call his all in.

[Android Apps and Games] dEris:
Well yeah, but some people cheat before the beat it and some people cheat after the beat it. All in all, it doesn't matter. He is just telling us how there is a loophole with games on Android. That's all. :rolleyes:
[Android Apps and Games] khaytsus:
Probably the same kind of folks that buy a game, the walkthrough, and find all of the cheat codes before even starting.

I've given myself more gold in games before to decrease the PAIN of moving through a game, and a few I've bumped up Experience to reduce the tedious "go outside town, fight until you're nearly dead, come back and rest, repeat until you're level X" but otherwise, it's no fun if you cheat every step of the way.
[Nook Color General] emiliemadison:
I was running 1.1.0 on stock NC and tried to root today using autonooter 3.0.0.

I followed the instructions to factory reset then erased data/deregistered. It worked as far as I can tell. Here comes the confusion.

1st issue- it says to re-register your device using the B&N (gmail) account. Ok, but then it just adds all my B&N books back onto my NC. Is that ok? If not, how do I register it without having it just put everything back to what I had originally?

2nd issue- The root didnt work. It got stuck on the android startup screen (large robot with android underneath, but that's all it did, never changed from that screen).

I ended up doing something (I know, I know...) but not sure exactly what, and had to do an entire factory reset again. Now I'm back to 1.0.0. and it's registered again so all the books are back.

I can't sideload or update to 1.0.1 or 1.1.0 and I have no idea where to go from here.

**UPDATE** I got 1.1.0 installed! So I'm back to where I started.

So now I need to resolve my issue #1. Am I still supposed to do a factory reset AND re-reregister? Basically- WHAT do I need to do to my NC before trying to root again (with autonooter 3.0, right?) Should there be books showing on my home page? Bah. I feel like a dunce.

If it's not totally obvious, I'm a major noob to this and while I can certainly follow directions and the instructions actually made sense to me while following them, I still need "instructions for dummies".

HELP?!!?
[Nook Color General] bugeyed1:
Why can't you sideload the 1.1.0 update? BTW When you get to the point of redoing A-N 3.0, follow the instructions on nookDevs. the xda instructions are incomplete!

Cheers,

kev
[Nook Color General] zdrifter:
Assuming you are 'reset' and at v1.0 you should follow the steps outlined in this post AND this post AFTER you have upgraded the Nook to v1.1 and registered the device (the fact you get your books back is a good thing, not a problem).. read over the process more than once to be sure you are familiar B4 you start.. go step by step slowly.. .... good luck!!!
[Nook Color General] khaytsus:
http://nookdevs.com/NookColor_Rooting
[Nook Color General] emiliemadison:
Thanks everyone!

Ok, so since I've re-done everything and it's all back to "out of the box", with 1.1 and registered, I dont have to re-do the factory reset etc AGAIN, right?

I just follow (to the T) the instructions from NookDevs and proceed with A-N 3.0? And are the instructions on NookDev the same for 1.1, even though it indicates only 1.0.0 or 1.0.1?

Thanks for being so patient and understanding with me :)
[Nook Color General] zdrifter:
Follow the steps outlined in the two posts mentioned in my earlier post and you'll be fine .. be sure you have the linked accounts for YouTube and Google PRIOR to starting. Cheers.
[Nook Color General] emiliemadison:
IT WORKED!

Thanks so much, everyone! I am now officially rooted! Now, I just need to figure out how to use it ;)
[Nook Color General] bugeyed1:
Do not follow the steps on xda!! There is a step missing between 3 & 4, It is to turn off the Nook & then insert the SD card & proceed. If the Nook is not turned off it can cause the unit to not boot from the SD card when you plug in the PC. I wish someone would fix the instructions. NookDevs has it correct.

OK, zdrifter, I see you referenced my post. Thanks, it's am important step.

Cheers,

[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dvdy:
USB tethering worked fine for me in the past but recently when I enable the USB tethering option, it'll disable itself after a few seconds. I've found that if I disable USB debugging it fixes this but since I use USB debugging quite a bit, it is a hassle and I don't think that I had to turn it off before. Is there something wrong with my configuration? I'm running gingerbread and I've tried CM7, Amethyst and Oxygen and they all have the same behaviour.

didn't you find a hint in the logs? this would be a starting point to debug
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Desotho:
Hey guys,

First of all, I would like to thank Darky for this great, great rom!

I recently installed the Resurrection version, just to be sure it was an absolute clean install. I love it to the bone, but I got one problem. Whenever I try to use Adfree and update it's hosts, I get the message:

"Unable to locate a partition to remount to write the hosts file to"

Could anyone be so kind to tell me what I have to do to fix this?

Thanks in advance!

EDIT: Seems that alot of apps that need root access, have trouble getting it. Droidwall gives me the same sort of error message, and now Busybox aswell.
[G Tablet General] case-sensitive:
Hi,

I just tried to download OI File Manager from the market, and I got the error message "Duplicate Provider Authority". I was able to download another app with the same session so market is (partially) functional. Any suggestion?

In case that matters, for several weeks now every time I fire up market I was asked to accept the android market term of service. Up until now this has not affect market function so I didn't pay attention, and I can't remember what triggers this (TOS) issue, other than that it happens after I got switched over to the new 2-panel market.

Many thanks for your help!
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] EVOme:
I was advised to rename a file and I did. My phone will not boot. Can you tell me how to use adb to rename the file back. It's in /data/data/com.android.providers.telephony/telephony.db I renamed it to telephony.db.old

I got to the data/data directory, but now I am stumped on how to get into com.android.providers.telephony
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] EVOme:
It's telling me that com.android.telephony/providers is not a directory..
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] xHausx:
Try wiping your dalvik-cache/cache from your recovery
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] lovethyEVO:
Try:

adb shell mount /data<enter>
adb shell mv /data/data/com.android.providers.telephony/telephony.db.old /data/data/com.android.providers.telephony/telephony.db<enter>

This is assuming you renamed the file in question and kept it in the same directory.

i rooted my NC with 1.1.0 and everything was perfect. installed and backup with CWR v 3.0.0.5. I have been stuck in the two screens of cwr. I CANNOT TURN off the nc so 8 aborted on/off s do not work. I cannot restore from sd card since it boots back into cwr, so i have not been able to use any removal code. the Monster pack is not for 1.1. I think I may be bricked. How do I get out of this clockwork recovery program (i have tried all of the options in it too, including fixing permissions, recoveries and endless useless reboots. HELP!
[Nook Color General] lifeisfun:
Hold the power button and it will turn off.
[Nook Color General] ddd22:
i have done that but it turns itself right back on again. it will not stay off. when it does go back on, it goes right back into clockworkmod recover (orange menu screen, landscape only)
[Nook Color General] zdrifter:
Try going here and see if that gets you out of trouble .. Hope it helps
[Nook Color General] TJNooker:
I can't say for a fact that this will make a difference for you, but it certainly can't hurt. Make sure you plug in your Nook Color to the charger, then do the manual power off (as in hold the power button). That should force it to reboot.

Those were the instructions I was given when CWR froze up on me during a kernel flash and it worked. Good luck.
[Nook Color General] ddd22:
got any mortar-bricked!

got it tuned off. now totally dead.. does not respond to power switch at all now. beware of CWR!!!
[Nook Color General] jianglai:
Boot CWR off monsterpack SDcard and restore stock system.img/boot.img. This saved me. This is definitely auto-nooter 3.0.0 related because pre-rooted BN 1.1.0 flashable does not have this problem.
[Nook Color General] ddd22:
no can do...cannot be turned on. stone dead
[Nook Color General] jianglai:
It is not. Trust me, I've has this thing twice today. boot partition on emmc is messed up I guess. You CAN boot from CWR on SD card.
[Nook Color General] ddd22:
With all due respect, I dont understand how that can be. When I press, or press and hold the power key, nothing at all happens. no screen or light activity of any kind... like someone removed a battery.

After your reply, thinking perhaps my removed micro sd card might make a difference, i put it back in and tried again to power on the NC.. nothing happens still. Are you telling me that somehow if i change the content of my SD card to the Monster Pack that somehow that firmware code is going to turn on the Nook even though i cannot power cycle it at all without that magic? I dont understand how this could be and creating that card is a fairly steep search and discovery mission for me which i am willing to do if it has a chance of working.

btw, the battery is fully charged according to the green N on the usb cable.

Thank you so much for your response.
[Nook Color General] thedjo:
What he/she said.. Happened to me once today. Remove the CWR and you should be good to go
[Nook Color General] ddd22:
how do i do that when no matter what i do the NC will not power on at all...zero. I can no longer even establish a usb connection to the computer.. it detects something and then tries and fails to install required drivers (which were previously installed and previously working). As much as I wish you all are right and I am missing something, I think I may be the first fool to brick the unbrickable!
[Nook Color General] Pinesal:
You will need to make a bootable SD card and boot off that.
[Nook Color General] ddd22:
i made a bootable cwr sd from the monster rootpack. same nothing happens. will not power on in any way shape or form. will now remake the card with the full rootpack and pray that i can eat my words.
[Nook Color General] ddd22:
chomp chomp chomp

(the glorious sounds of words being eaten). you both were 100% correct and trust you i should have even more. I followed your advice despite my doubts and I wrote the rootpack image to the sd card and held the power button for about 15 seconds and alive she came! now i am at least back to my cwr that i cant get out of. i now could use a little more of your wisdom as to the best next steps. should i remove cwr then reflash with say 1.1.0R2 or should i figure out how to use cwr to do that flash, and remove it after the flash is completed. obviously a newbee to flashing this device (less than a week old), but have been following Energy on HTC flashes for long times. There is so much information here, it is almost too much when you first step in and your collective willingness to help this doubting thomas is extremely appreciated. my apologies and my deepest thanks. more reading coming up..
[Nook Color General] ddd22:
resolved!

i added the zip for 1.1.0 -r2 to the monster sd boot card and installed the rom from there. setting it up now. thanks to all for not listening to my doubt and telling me to continue as instructed. forever grateful
[Nook Color General] jasoraso:
ddd-22 - did you install from CWR after rooting 1.1 using the modified Autonooter, or did you sideload the rooted 1.1?

I installed CWR from a 1.1 that was rooted using Autonooter (modified for 1.1) and ended up in a CWR reboot loop similar to what you had.
[Nook Color General] yan2000kee:
Yeah- I attempted to run the OC rom after autonootered to 1.1 and got into the loop. Has anyone had succes in loading the OC rom after autonootering to 1.1? Thanks
[Nook Color General] pasqualebambino:
Thank you for this thread. The exact same thing happened to me after trying to flash a kernel using CWR and autonooter3.0. Thought I was bricked for sure!

I am back to business and glad not to have an expensive paper weight!:D
[Nook Color General] ddd22:
though i am on the way to recovery, not fully there yet. the r2 prerooted version was great except i could not log onto gmail... it kept seeing the NC as a phone and was looking for a cellular network, and gave me the message "a reliable connection with google servers could not be made" or some such verbage.. In the pre rooted 1.1. r2, i followed the directions going through youtube etc, but that did not work. so i decided to try to restore the backup i made when i first got caught in the doloop. which i did again, so it is back to monster to start over again and clear out the NC. I have been scouring other sites and many people have been having this problem. I wish i could remember how i installed cwr (method) but cant. however, what i found fairly consistently, and i believe i made the same mistake, was not restarting the NC before i made the backup. seems that is what got a lot of folks into this doloop crisis. if anyone has a plan of how i should get back to my previous state of bliss, let me know. I am remaking monster pack again and clearing out my machine.
[Nook Color General] cal3thousand:
Glad you got it figured out.

I was in a bind like this about 3 weeks ago. NC was sooooo dead from constantly rebooting itself that the battery was ICU status.

Had to recharge with Nook charger overnight. Made a Nookie Froyo card and reinstalled CWR.

I thought I was the first to brick it too... looks like we're still searching for a champ :D
[Nook Color General] ddd22:
now there is a contest that makes me glad to be just another loser!
