[Nook Color General] bartonkt:
Um, if you installed Auto nooter you can then grab market apps. I recently got the Nook color, and that is part of the process I used to upgrade to honeycomb directly on the device. You can go on the market and download "clockworkmod" free version, and then use that to install these "emmc" installs which will completely overwrite the BN firmware with whatever firmware you want - 2.2, 3.0, etc.

It's not terribly difficult. You just download the emmc update you want and put it on a SD card, pop it in the Nook, and then select to flash that file - usually it will say its a "CWM" supported .zip install. And, there are much better directions than what I've outlined in most of the guides on the Dev forum.
[Nook Color General] cpkresch:
I guess that makes sense. Any regrets with updating to HC?

The only thing I miss about froyo is flash for the 'play on' app... Otherwise the UI is amazing and perfect for buttonless tablets... I also don't like the not sleeping thing, drains battrry fast

Anyone know where our free apps for this month are?
[Optimus 7 General] kapanak:
LG has never stated there will be new apps every month. Rather, there will be 10 new apps added every 60 days...so check back in March...
[Optimus 7 General] A Dustman:
Ah, my mistake, I thought it was every month.
[Optimus 7 General] kapanak:
However, what I am more worried about the the updates to currently released apps...most are a few versions behind their regular Marketplace counterparts...

EDIT: It seems 4 new apps were added to LG apps store...nothing to get too excited over, but they are free, and you might find use for them...

"There was a problem with authorization. Please wait while we reset your device"

OK - I have a Nook that was purchased at 1.00. I registered with BN.

Then I used NookColor_v1.1.0_r2.zip to root it.

I installed Market and got ADB to work. Life was great.

I think life started turning south when I went to the BN marketplace and purchased a book. In the middle of reading it, I got the dreaded "There was a problem with authorization. Please wait while we reset your device".

Fortunately, I had backed up my ROM using ROM Manager. So, I re-installed my ROM and it wasn't long before I got the message again. I feel like I'm now in an endless loop of resetting my device. I'm not sure how to get out of it. I've read several threads on this subject that simply leave me confused at this point. I'm looking for guidance. I LOVED my rooted Nook Color while it lasted. I don't like it stock. I'm looking for help.
[Nook Color General] scottanious:
I've been rooted on 1.0.1 since Christmas, and shortly after I first rooted, I had this happen to me too. There were others affected as well. Back then, we didn't have the recovery image, so I just set everything back up by hand. Since then it hasn't happened to me.

I haven't dug further, but I would guess that there is something that B&N doesn't like in the rooted image, but after a reset, it was happy again. Again, this was with my 1.0.1 root and an earlier rev of Autonooter, but this may be a way out of the loop you're in.
[Nook Color General] jeffgarret:
I had the same problem and assumed that it was because BN authorization puts a file on your NC that is date sensitive and if you do a restore (I was using titanium backup) and put an older file in place it will trip this reset scenario. I did a reroot with autonooter 3.0 and restored everything but any BN apps or data and the problem is gone.
[Nook Color General] ski2dude:
Same thing just happened to me too. Going to restore and re-root later today. :(
[Nook Color General] racks11479:
I just went through the same problem as well. Tried out Nookie Froyo on emmc. Liked the Nook stock interface better. Tried restoring via CWM and get the "There was a problem with authorization. Please wait while we reset your device" error. Tried it twice and got the same error twice as soon as it connects to wifi.

Ended up having to flash back to stock and start the rooting process all over again. And now it seems to be fine.
[Nook Color General] khmerwunder:
Happened to me two weeks ago and I kept restoring. That's the problem, when I restored back to an older rom. Just root it again, restore the apps manually by dling off the market or through Astro. Don't restore the whole thing through CW. It worked for me because I haven't had the problem since then.
[Nook Color General] bobo12:
It happened to me as well funny thing was that I had a 1.1.0 never rooted Nook Color and I rooted with AutoNooter 3.0.0 and it happened within 24 hours. There was no restoring backups or anything. Any ideas?
[Nook Color General] scottanious:
Again, my guess is that there is something in the rooting process that trips the reset. If you allow the reset to proceed without restoring the whole rom (Titanium restores should be fine) then you likely won't see it again. It's a little tedious, but should be ok... I've been running rooted for over a month with 1.0.1, and aside from the first reset, it's been smooth sailing.
[Nook Color General] bobo12:
I allowed it to reset but when it came back I was missing several crucial applications such as gmail, the android market and youtube. The rest (that are included in the root) were there. But I was lost without those applications and believed that a full rom reset was needed. Would there have been another way?
[Nook Color General] Homer_S_xda:
Using Titanium Backup, backup only User apps and data. Do not backup System apps and/or data. When you get back up from the reset and re-root, only restore User apps and data.

Maybe you can restore the ROM and backup just the User apps and data. Remove the SDcard. and then let it reset, or reset it to stock yourself. Get it back to how you want the base, root, install TiBu then restore your User apps and data.

Shameless plug: if you haven't already, buy Titanium Backup. It can be a life saver, or at least a sanity saver. I have no affiliation with the author, just a fan of the program.

"the openness of Android will not play a decisive role in the future success of the Google phone"

Not quite...

Overall, a very entertaining read, nice find.
[Fascinate General] Daswolven:
It was a bit of nostalgia for me. I was waiting for the release of the G1 quite eagerly, and grabbed one on pre-order. I held on to that clunky monster until the N1 rolled out, and only reluctantly let that go because I actually needed signal at my new home when I moved. lol.

I just remember vividly reading the cornucopia of negative articles about why Android was doomed and holding fast to my "wait and see" opinion. It's just kind of nice to be on the far side of that equation now. :)

"Eventually, so the argument goes, these Android advantages will overwhelm the iPhone, similar to how Windows overwhelmed the Mac.

This prediction is about as likely to come true as the proverbial pig flying."

Hey guys, ive made myself some custom icons as i wasn't really happy with what was out there. Ive set them up with Desktop Visualizer so they are bigger.

If anyone else is interested id be happy to upload them and share them to the community.

im also in the process of making a hancent theme to match, and the app market

If anyone does end up wanting them and you need a icon i'll make it for you, only if you request it like this

Application name

[image/link to icon]

Colour you would like (if other colours end up being made)

So i guess this is my contribution to the community lol :)

My home screen setup with them

All the icons i have currently made

Actual size of icons in .psd, so you can have them pretty big on the homescreen if you want.

Thanks.
[Android Themes] natious:
INSTRUCTIONS

You'll need

- Home Screen replacement adwEX / Launcher Pro ect... ( I use adwEX so ive only tested on that)

- Home screen setup to 10x10

- Desktop Visualizer + config tool (both free in market)

- Folder Organizer (optional)

First setup your home screen to 10x10 and install DVR

Copy all the .pngs to the dvr folder on your sd card

Long Press the home screen and create a dvr config widget, place it in the top left corner and tap on it, set it to 10x10, exit out. Move it to the bottom right tap on it. It will confirm itself. You can delete that widget off the home screen now.

Long Press the home screen and create a DVR widget 2x1 for the size on my home screen or resize the widget 4x2 to have it double the size, or 8x4 for a HUGE one.

Tap on the widget to set it up, under "icon" select image and navigate to the dvr folder and image of choice.

Under action you can choose what you want the widget todo, ie; Launcher an app.

Leave the label blank, and touch effect to whatever colour you like. (im using blue)

When you are done, tap OK and your new icon/widget will be set up.

If you have folder organizer you can setup the app draw icon to link to the app folder via "other/folder organizer link/applications" in the DVR action menu. ( its how i have it setup)

[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kenvan19:
Hey everyone. I realized today that my phone is one of the few that can handle almost all clock speeds (1.6GHz with Trinity VMax causes a reboot on setting it) so I decided to do some Quadrant tests and show you. My process was simple: Flash the kernel, boot, set the clock speed and run Quadrant until the scores stopped going up. All the tests were done on CyanogenMod7 nightly release 29. Here are my results:

Netarchy 1.4GHz BFS

(7 tests)

2703, 2843, 3174, 3209, 3216, 3248, 3297

Netarchy 1.4GHz CFS

(4 tests)

2775, 3248, 3276, 3308

Trinty Max 1.4GHz

(3 tests)

2820, 3474, 3476

Trinty Max 1.6GHz

(1 tests)

3891

Trinty VMax 1.4GHz

(5 tests)

2854, 3227, 3525, 3550, 3694

Trinty VMax 1.5GHz

(4 tests)

2819, 3416, 3667, 3773

PS: The only reboots suffered during these tests were when I set the clock speed to 1.6GHz on Trinity VMax.

I guess no one was interested in this. Mods can close.

Now, everything is working great!
[Atrix 4G General] PixoNova:
I don't know if the DX or D2 has root or not, but I'm aware of the bootloader problem. Will the locked bootloader block the attempts for a permanent root?

Also, if we do manage to get rooted on this device, will this allow us to remove bloatware, and the sideloading of apps? I'm aware I can use an app on the PC to do it, but for the sake of convenience I would like to sideload apps from the SD card.

I'm not worried about custom roms or anything like that, I'm fine with MotoBlur. But will I be able to install ADW Launcher or Launcher Pro or anything like that?

Either way, this phone is a monster, and I will definitely not go back to the boring old iPhone once this baby is in my hands.
[Atrix 4G General] holyevilcow:
Everything will get rooted, eventually, regardless of the state of bootloader. If you are REALLY curious about what a community can do with a locked bootloader, check out the xperia x10 forum here on xda. Sony stopped development for this phone shortly after they released 2.1, yet there are several extremely stable 2.2 Roms floating around, and a few 2.3.2 in development, thanks to the devs and a supportive community. A locked bootloader really doesn't concern me much, that's why we have xda, as long as the community is behind the devs, pretty much anything is possible.
[Atrix 4G General] johnnydeathmatch:
Rooting shouldn't be that big of a deal. From the review on gdgt, all of the bloatware can be removed without root, anyway. The reviewer also installed ADW with no problem.

Custom ROMs will most likely come eventually. Give it a couple of months. With how awesome this phone is, there will probably be quite a bit of hacking going on.
[EVO 4G General] dirkyd3rk:
Im letting you know ahead of time that this is a random rant. So I have been wondering what's the real deal holyfield with sprints so called wimax. I read somewhere that wimax really isn't TRUE 4g as it doesn't even max out at true 4g speeds. The most I've hit was about 5mbps. So is it really even 4g? And tmobile hspa + network is that faster that our wimax? My sister comes to my apt in my 4g area and her g2 gets about 6 mbps with her hspa. Why does it seem like gsm has way better data. We all know sprints 3g isn't really 3g its piss poor. If this LTE is supposed to beat out wimax why did sprint roll with it over LTE. I'm thinking sprint wanted to get a **** ton of subscribers so they just went with wimax cause it would roll out way before LTE but I definitely don't think wimax/clear is true 4g. I also heard the clear ceo jumped ship or something lol. If the national standard is supposedly going LTE what would sprint/clear do, will they adopt new technologied in their phones and leave wimax phones out to dry? So the real 4g is LTE and wimax just seems like it should be labeled pre4g, cause I hear LTE will be able to get 10mbps down and 3-5mbps up. That's stronger than most peoples internet eh? I am kind of pissed for paying an extra 10 bucks for 5mbps in a strong area and in my area my 4g hits only about 2. Is sprint going to be the only provider using wimax? The moral of this pointless rant is just to get my knowledge and others about the future/truth of wimax. I just want to understand how this service compares to this new LTE and tmobiles and atts new 4g network. It would be nice just to come in and drop comments on any question asked in this post instead of flame me, or post non sense.
[EVO 4G General] DirtyShroomz:
A small search woudl have answered all questions....

First, nobody has a "true" 4G network as no 4G network reaches 100mbps yet. Another thing, Sprint is working on a WiMax/LTE hybrid network, or so it goes. Speed depends where you live. I hit 10mbps easily here in Orlando, some people can't hit above 1. Some goes for ANY network on earth.

[EVO 4G General] xHausx:
The server you use on speedtest makes a huge difference as well, try to use one that has an internet backbone near it like Atlanta, DC or Chicago for the east coast. I get maybe 2 or 3mbps on speedtest with a server that is not 30 miles from here yet I get 8mbps on another that is almost 1000 miles away.

WiMAX and LTE are still considered pre-4G atm but it's an actual 4G network, all we need is a firmware update to have true 4G. at&t & t-mo on the other hand will Never have real 4G with HSPA+. btw, I get 8mbps in Orlando and on the east coast near there all the time using the atlanta and harold, ky servers, actual speeds during use vary though.
