Greetings,
I'm running Myn’s Warm Donut build on my xv6900, and it's running like a champ. Excellent work! I'm using the Market Enabler, and am able to find almost everything I am looking for in the Market. One app is eluding me, however. An up-to-date version of PhoneFusion's VisualVoicemail+ app. It's a free download, but for some reason I am just not able to find it. Would anyone have a link to a newer build of the app they would like to share? The version I have is 1.0.0, and I believe the latest is 2.0.4.8. I'm guessing that some of the issues apparent on v1 will not be present in the later build.
I used the service on WinMo, and would like to have it on the Android side.
Thanks in advance!
Still no luck
I've used Market enabler, changed my resolution to 320x480, and still no luck. I can find just about every other app there is in the Market, but not this one. Has anyone had luck finding it, and if so, could you give me a nudge in the right direction?

Simply changing the resolution to hvga won't work. You must backup your data, then wipe your data, then change your res, restart, and sign into google services and accept market terms to see all apps. That is, if the app you're looking for is only for 320x480.
Thanks
I'll give it another try.
Got it
If anyone is interested, let me know. I'll post it here unless it's against the rules somehow. I also grabbed the Youmail app while I was there, just in case.
I had a spare microSD card laying around. I copied myn's SQSH build onto it, booted up at 320x480, signed into Google, installed Market Enabler, and went hunting. Once the apps were installed, I used Astro to back them up to the SD card, rebooted into WinMo, swapped back to my SD card I've been using, booted up and it automatically installed Fusion Voicemail+. Nice. I also threw the apks on my FTP site so I can grab them in the future if I need them.
So, since I went through this crazy convoluted process, all seems to be well. I would love to run 320x480 permanently (there are a ton of apps that aren't available to us peewee 240-320 users) but it's just a little too fuzzy for me.
And once again, a million thanks to every developer who has gotten us this far. This is a fantastic OS for this phone, and I couldn't be happier.

Wow, talk about confusing, the A7 is a whole new world to me.
I've had computers for years, currently I have two running XP & 7, plus I have two laptops running XP & 7. I understand a lot when it comes to computers, but the A7 is so different.
I've downloaded & printed the User Manual and I have read it several times. I've read numerous posts on this forum and now I'm confused. I feel so dumb. Too many words that I don't understand. I want to learn everything I can about running every aspect of this tablet, but it's like just as I learn one thing, the next time it doesn't work that way.
I need more reading material. Whether it be links to posts, books to read, anything to help me understand what I am doing. I make notes of things I have read so that I will remember what to do next time. Post something to help me, PM me or even email me.
I will be so greatfull for any help given.
Thank you
The user manual you can download on elocity's site is useless because there is a lot of things that were never edited out to match the actual release version of the tablet.
As far as computer knowledge and relating it to the a7 or android in general, windows knowledge will not get you very far. A good working knowledge of Unix/Linux will give you a much better idea of what's going on behind the scenes since android is based on Linux (loosely, in my opinion) but still functions very similarly.
If you have any programming or web design experience, I would recommend downloading the android sdk and do some playing around with simple programs. Also with the sdk you can make a virtual android device to monkey around with without fear of messing up your new $300 toy I use eclipse as my development environment in Linux, not sure what a good windows alternative would be, but the structure of an android app is pretty easy to follow. There are example programs and source available on the android developer site developer.android.com if I remember correctly (same place to get the sdk). And the language itself tends to be pretty similar to writing a Java app.
I've probably missed the mark completely on the information you were trying to find, but if you are anything like me, you'll find hours (years if it gets you going down the Linux/Unix path lol) of obsession with just this info.
Hopefully it gets you on the opensource band wagon (the reason I love Linux/Android)
Wow...where to start? Well, you got that you turn it on and slide the lock to the dot to unlock. Then you are in a "home page". There are 5 of them. there are dots at the top of the screen showing which home page ur on. Usually the center one. Touch the screen and slide one way or the other to move the home pages.
If you touch the square whitish pad at the right of the screen with a bunch of darker squares in it, it takes you to your apps - the programs that do what you want.
If you touch an app it runs. Touch the return arrow just to the right of the screen to close the app and go back. It always takes u back.
You have to "root" the machine to get the good apps. Usually with Dexters mod. This is easy. You download the file, rename it to upgrade.zip, place it on a micro SD card, and go to settings/About Device/System Updates/ then touch update device.
The home button at the right side of the screen always takes you to the center home page. - It DOES NOT close the app you have open at the moment.
you should get an app closer to close all of the un-closed apps for you.
Oh yea, android market place is the app you want to add all of the apps you want.
You get it with Dexters Mod (4.1 right now)
and there is tons more...............
Based on Linux ... now I understand why this is confusing to me. I've never worked with it before, but I understand from fellow users, they like it better than Windows OS.
I've never done any programming or web design, but maybe it's not too late to learn something new.
I thank both of you for your info and appreciate everything you have said.
mrpete2u I really appreciated the details of your instructions. I know I'm a dummy at this, and I'm sure there are more of you guys out there to help.
Thanks

Another newbie jumping in....and trying to figure this out. To "root" the machine do I need to update the firmware from the elocity site or can I jump to Dexters right away. If so, where do I find that?
Thanks for your advice.
your a7 is rooted already with dexters mod or elocity firmware.
My Kernel version is 2.6.32.9-svn2514
[email protected]#1
And Build # PBJ8000.2.0124
And ECv is 0.14
Would you mind explaining what these numbers mean, please?
Thank you

http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=890042
I have now updated to 2.0.0133
Now I need to figure out how to get the market icon so I can start looking for more apps & games. Tried downloading earlier and it keeps telling me that I have downloaded to my phone? I don't have a fancy phone to download to.
Here I am again confused, but what's new about that!!
There is a thread in the device section on adding market to stock rom.
Or you could just run elocitymod by Dexter.
I did run the elocity mod 1.41 and my firmware was updated to 2.0.0133
When I am on market.android's site, they want my phone number so they can download the app to my phone.
I'm trying to download the app to my tablet.
Am I confused or what
Thanks for answering me.

Yes, yes you are lol
For all intents and purposes (as far as Google is concerned at least) your tablet is a phone.
Install market enabler on the a7 and fake a cell provider. The a7 should show up on the Google market website after that.
You didn't install dextermod and then apply eLocity update over it did you? Just want to be sure.
Your laughing at me .... that's ok ... right now I'm so new at this, I really don't care, in fact I am laughing at myself for being so dumb.
I went to dexter's site and downloaded a file called elocitymod1.41 and renamed it to update.zip and that is what I installed.
OK I will install market enabler
Thank you again for helping this dummy .... LOL
From the perceived tone of the post prior to my last one, I thought you were already at the laughing stage. I thought I was just laughing along, sorry for the mix up.
Sounds like you are doing everything right. I just wanted to make sure that we were dealing with a clean install of elocitymod, and not something mixed together by trying to ally another update on top of it.
Needless to say ... I am still confused.
Installed the market enabler, but I am not getting anywhere.
Why I try to install an app I get a message telling me there is no phone attached to this account and they want me to log in with another account. When I try creating a new account, there is no place to give a phone number and I get all those stupid messages again.
Just wondering if I am too dumb, because you all make this seem so easy, that maybe I should give up and figure out other ways to get apps and leave the android market site alone???
Sorry if I have frustration in my voice, but I guess I thought this would be easier.

Why not just use market from the tablet? I wouldn't stress so much about trying to get it to work and remotely install from the web site.
Each time I go to the site, I am on my tablet. Mainly because it has a direct install button and not a download, so I want to be on the tablet to install on it.

So are you hitting the Market icon (opening the Market app) or are you trying to open http://market.android.com/ in the web browser?
I have a couple of quick questions. Firgive if already asked.
Why are the markets so different? Many of the appa I use on my phone are not there. For instamce I can't find words with friends. I did some google searching but could not fine the apk.. any help with that, I would be thankful.
I like the tablet just lots to get use to.
If I wanted to read about rooting this device what's the best site? Instructions. The only reason I would want to root is to get the real market ..
Sometimes it is because the apps aren't compatible. Other times the reason is hard to figure, because they work fine as they are.
One thing that you might try is to grab the app (.apk) from your phone and move it using something like a Dropbox app, or a simple file transfer through your pc would work too.
first things first. I need to find the apk. Do you happen to know where i might find it? There must be a repo of some sort somewhere?
I relly like the device tho. Seems a little disorganized ... maybe thats true of android as a whlole. Not Android s fault but manufacturers not sticking to the spec?
Anyway. Thanks for the help
if your phone rooted, u can install the app and grab pk from /data/app
could think of a few ways
Most devs have a web page for their product out there somewhere - a lot of them will offer the .apk for you to download there. You can also try browsing the android market via web browser or trying one of the many external markets available (Appbrain/Amazon are great!)
Hope that helps.
Hmm... I have words with friends, and it coordinates with my account on my Droid, up to date... I have no advice, but wanted to say it works great.. was on the market for the tablet for Me... still is I just checked.
I find the web version of android market to be wayyyy better than the app...
I've been collecting free apps from Amazon on my rooted NC for awhile now. At the time I got each of these apps, they were listed as "compatible" with my device.
Now suddenly a lot of them are not, and I am unable to go back and re-install the ones that I had removed.
Even worse, pretty much everything I've tried so far today to grab has come up as incompatible. Even really simple stuff that should have no problem running.
Oddly, at some point early on, Amazon listed my device as simply "Nook Color". Most of the apps are still showing as compatible with that device. Unfortunately, that's not what Amazon thinks my NC is anymore! I now have a second device on my list called "BarnesAndNoble NOOKcolor", which almost nothing is compatible with.
So then I wanted to check to see if Amazon was behind this, maybe to screw B&N fans. But nope! The Android Marketplace lists every game I've checked so far today as incompatible with my NC!!!
That's certainly news to me, considering some of the games I checked are currently installed on my NC and work perfectly.
I'm not sure what's going on here, but it's sort of scaring me. Who's locking down my rooted NC? If the official android marketplace says everything is incompatible... there aren't a lot of options for getting apps.
Do search with "Market" keyword, you will see about 10 threads with many responses and instructions how to fix this.

There are quite a few threads found that way, but none of the ones I read helped. I did the "stop/restart Framework/Google and reload" and nothing changed. Most of the others seem to be related to problems with the new market, which was working perfectly for me up until today, or problems run into right after rooting. I've been rooted for about 5 months with no market problems of any kind, and I haven't changed anything on my NC for over a month.
I also tried clearing the settings for the Amazon market and also deregistered the device from my amazon account, forcing it to re-register. Still no luck.
Anyone else seeing this, or have another suggestion?
My old market and new market were working fine too, just like yours, until a few days ago. If you try the 160 dpi/reboot/clear-data-from-market procedure below and that doesn't work, then you may have a totally unique problem that just happens to have the same variety of symptoms everyone else is having. (I'm doubtful.) This procedure seems to be fixing the problem for almost everyone else. Did you try it? It fixed mine.
1) set dpi to 160 in build.prop
2) reboot
3) clear market app data (force close first may help?)
4) restart market, accept terms, let it rebuild data at 160 dpi
5) profit
the above we all seem to agree on now. Next steps are more speculative
6) set dpi back to 161 (or whatever you had)
7) reboot
8) profit indefinitely (unknown how long this lasts; I rebooted >5 times including flashing a nightly w/o issue)
9) do NOT clear data again as this rebuilds data at the wrong dpi again.

Thanks, I had tried the first half, but not the second. I used manual nooter, so my dpi entries originally looked like:
ro.sf.lcd_density.xdpi=169.3333
ro.sf.lcd_density.ydpi=169.3333
I don't know if that makes a difference.
Anyway, I just tried the second half of the above process but I'm still showing as incompatible. I wonder if I need to re-noot.
Everyone trying to be helpful here seems to miss the poster's dilemma. He is talking about the Amazon Market, not the Android Market. Hopefully someone familiar with the workings of the Amazon Market will chime in with some suggestions.
My original problem was with Amazon's market, but it looks like that's just a symptom of the bigger problem that I noticed first because I use it every day, as opposed to much less frequent use of the android market.
But the Android market suffers the same problem and from what I've read online it sounds like the problem was started with changes by Google that Amazon also adopted.
Interestingly I noticed this for the first time last night on the Android market and this morning with the Amazon market. Ebook downloads presently are unaffected to my rooted NC. Amazon recognizes my device as an Android but when I tried to make an app purchase this morning it suddenly tried to download it to a BN Nook. Amazon emailed me this morning saying that unless I have their market preloaded by the manufacturer they do not support it. Collusion?
I got the "not compatible" message after installing the most recent update from the Amazon App Store. Fortunately, I have the very first app store apk. I uninstalled the updated app store, then installed the old apk, logged in and then updated it and for some reason that worked for me. You might try not updating also to see if that works. I am not using CM7 though and I'm not manualnootered. I'm minirooted meaning I can side load apps and have superuser access, but no Android Market access and some other things.
I have attached the apk I used. I hope it works for you.

A better question would be is Amazon trying to bork the Nook Color with their app?
Anyone else have a suggestion for getting the Android Market working again for me?
thanks for the APK, I'll try it when I have a chance... But since the Android market from Google doesn't work either I'm hoping for a fix to that.
If you make the change in your build.prop “ro.product.manufacturer=BarnesAndNoble” to “ro.product.manufacturer=samsung” then reboot the device. This seems to fix most of the device compatibility problems in the Amazon appstore. I went down the top 100 paid and free app list, and the only apps that came up with the compatibility problems after doing this are,
Soundhound
Peggle
Thumb keyboard
Trainz simulator THD
Chuzzle
Talking Tom Cat
flexT9
GrooVe IP
Ultra Voice Changer
TV.com
Compass
Also attached is the amazon appstore v.1.14, it has the double click buying fix, but does not give all the compatibility issues. With installing this version does fix the compatibility problem, but you will be constantly hounded with the update reminder.
I don't use Facebook, but I was able to find, install and open the Facebook app with the new market. Do the density change using 240. Its more stable than 160 for whatever reason.

Thanks for the suggestion. Unfortunately it had no effect. The first four apps i tried not on your list all came up incompatible, as did stuff on the google market.

The old version of the market is working! I was able to install a number of apps that didn't previously work.
Now if I could just get the Google market to work!
Thanks for that link!
I was having the same problem with the AMAZON appstore (but not the android marketplace, for some reason) but I couldn't find the old amazon appstore apk. Going back to it totally fixed the problem. But you're right, the constant reminders to update the apk are a pain in the whatsus.
Also try going into application management and goto market and tap uninstall updates. Also use titanium backup or similar program to freeze market updater.
By what I read, I bet amazon is trying to block the competition because they are fixing to come out with their own tablets and by horning something like the nook you might be enticed to buy their tablet.
I voided my warranty and your mum.
My markets all seem to do whatever the f*ck they want the moment i need an application that was perfectly available minutes before. What i've done to get around the issue if neither the market or the amazon store have what i'm looking for is: (i know its tedious but hey it works)
1) install astro
2) using your android phone assuming you have one, download the applications you want regardless of them being compatible with the nook color according to the android market.
3) once your files are installed on your phone use astro to create a backup of the .apk files you want (open astro > menu > tools > application manager/backup)
4) i then take my sd card out of my phone and pop it into my nook color and install my apps through w.e file manager it is i have on the nook color
all the games that i cant normally download onto my nook through the official methods i've been able to install and play through the method i've been using. not ALL apps will allow you to back them up though =/
I'm pretty handy around a computer, but after 4 days of frustration here's what I discovered:
1) From stock 1.3 - running manuNooter 4.6.18 then 4.6.16 (and 4.6.16a) won't get the market working (I had better success reverting back to 18, but it was still flaky and I had to reflash every few hours to continue seeing apps on my SD card). 16 and 16a kept crashing and wouldn't load the market at all.....it would populate then crash.....even after clearing all data and fixing permissions.
2) CM7 resulted in a hobbled market that wouldn't recognize my device as a 'legit device' on which to install apps. I could manually install apk's, but not from the market. I know that I could screw with the build.prop to change the type of device, but I wasn't keen to do so since people were having mixed results.
So is it fair to say that the market it toast atm? If so I'll let the ridiculously smart people work on it and check back in a while?
The smart people all used search and aren't here anymore.

Condesention aside - I did try the contents of that thread before I posed my question. That thread though is a fix for CM7. When I had CM7 on my NC the problem I had with the market was to do with the error that 'this device is not compatible' - not with the visibility of the market itself. Thus I reflashed with Stock 1.3 and used MN and 4.6.XX in an attempt to get market that way.

Sorry - I guess my question wasn't clear: I was looking at all the threads on market access with manuNooter - and tried most everything myself. As far as I can tell - there doesn't seem to be a reliable fix to gain permanent Market access right? 4.6.18 seems to lose access from my experience (plus it uses the 'old market'), and 4.6.16 doesn't get access for me for more than a second until it crashes (and the data clear trick doesn't work for me). That's why I was asking whether or not I'm just missing a solid solution or there just isn't one.
TIA
I've tried every possible solution to the limited Android Market issue and no success. I have a stock rooted NOOKcolor with MN 4-6-16. My husband has the same. Apps that we had installed previously from the Android Market, even ones we've purchased, show as not compatible with our device now.
I know I should list all of the suggested solutions I've tried... Maybe tomorrow... Just very frustrated right now!
...
Okay, I realize I can't post this without more info... I've tried:
- Changing the LCD Density to 160.
- Changing the device info in build.prop
- All of the clear cache/data, etc. for Google Framework and Market.
I've tried even more things that aren't coming to mind right now.
Fortunately, I had a backup of all the apps I need, but it is just bugging me that I can't access Facebook for Android, Friendcaster Pro, etc. from Android Market.
Curious if others are continuing to have a problem with Android Market like we are?
I have to say, I think I'm buying an iPad 3 when it is available, so I don't have to deal with a rooted device any longer! Arghhh!
Same issue. Stock rooted 1.3. Tried changing LCD density to 160, 161, 200, 240, etc. Changed build.prop to HTC and Samsung. Cleared cache data from market and Google Framework. Same problem. Missing some very basic apps due to compatibility.
Based on what I've seen in various posts, seems like there are two other options that I'm thinking about trying:
1) Downgrade the market. I have 3.3.11 right now. I could be wrong, but I believe I read that older versions have less compatibility issues. I found an apk for a 3.0 version (or something around that - I don't have it right in front of me). Problem is, I'm not sure how to a) remove the old market, b) install the new one, or c) stop it from updating (which I think has to be done).
2) Downgrade to stock 1.2 It seems that most of the problems are associated with 1.3 (is that your case?). 1.2 isn't available on the B&N site anymore, but there's a zip for it on this site. So I might try to downgrade to that and then root again to see if that improves the situation.
You could switch to CM7 (nightly 200 or higher or last stable release - 7.1).

I tried downgrading the Market by doing "Uninstall Updates" within NookColor Tools > Manage Applications and then used the "Freeze" option in Titanium Backup. I had the old green market, but still didn't see any more applications--at least not the ones I tried finding. I didn't wait to see if things changed if I left it at the old market for awhile.
I don't want to go back to 1.2, because I subscribe to some of the newer magazines that require 1.3.
Fortunately, I had all of the apps backed up, so when I got my warranty replacement NC (which I had to get another replacement for!), I'm not missing any apps, but I won't be able to update any of them.

With CM7, you lose the standard B&N features, tho. Like the delivery of periodicals, kids books, Library app, Shop app, etc. I subscribe to a daily newspaper and a few monthly magazines, so I like the automatic delivery feature; and I have a grandson who enjoys the B&N kids books on my NC.
Just seems like there should be a fix that actually works with a stock rooted/manual nootered device.
Well, that didn't work too well. I installed 1.2 and that brought back all my normal apps. Plus I was able to install netflix, which is why I started this whole odyssey in the first place. But the first time I went to re-boot it, I found myself in an infinity loop on start up.
Thinking about finally going to CM7 now.
I'm having the same problems. I'm just using a workaround of downloading/updating the apps on my phone, saving the .apk to my sd card, using wifi file explorer to transfer the .apks to the nook and then installing. It sucks that the market wont work right but oh well

The boot loop could be caused by Flash auto-updating, if you happen to have it set to auto update. I know that can be an issue with 1.3, anyway. There is a fix in this forum that includes uninstalling and installing from the market.
Yeah, if I didn't like the B&N features, I'd definitely go to CM7.
Good luck!

Good workaround! My NC is the only Android device I have, so not an option for me, unfortunately.
