Netflix hack and CWR - Nook Color Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Quick question, if I have used the Netflix hack (changing the device ID to HTC Hero) will CWR think that my Nook is a Hero when I flash the new CWR?

Only if you select Hero. Just select Nook Color and you will be fine.

[Q] Phiremod up and running on emmc, Original Nook Color Interface??

Hello,
Ive searched and searched but can not find a definite answer, I have Phiremod 7.1 up and running. I am curious if you can run the original B&N Home launcher, with the library and shop, is this possible or am I shooting blanks? I cant seem to access my books already on my NC's main Memory.
Thank you!
Short answer: nope.
I believe you can just install the B&N app and sync with the account you had previously (I don't really use mine for books). Doesn't the stock ROM store books internally? In which case would have been wiped out when installing Phiremod?
yes I do believe the books are wiped from installing the rom, but i was curious to see if i could get the B&N App and Launcher, and reload the books.
App from the market yes (but not same as stock), launcher no.

Liberty question

I installed Liberty3, v2.0 Gold on my D2 today.
I downloaded the zip from here: teamgummy.com/downloads?did=17 and installed using ClockworkMod Bootstrap Recovery.
The install went easily, but when I go into Settings -> Liberty Settings, the Mod version says v1.0
Anyone know what gives? The zipfile is called Liberty3D2-2.0Gold.zip
Seems like it should be the right file.
I've been using the same Rom, I absolutley love Liberty. From what I can tell, as long as you can change your lockscreen to Honeycomb & all the other options, you are running 2.0. It might just be small text things the developer forgot to change.

[Q] Installing an application on Nook Color

I have registered my Nook Color by using serial number of the device on nook developer site. I'm able to view the extras tab but the issue is that it doesn't show the NookColor Tools option. (Kindly refer the attached screenshot).
What i did next is to mail a copy of application's apk file on my email address and opened the mail from device's browser. I download it and then during installation, I get the option of Package Installer. When I select it and press "Install", I get the following error message: "For security reasons, only apps purchased through the NOOK Shop can be installed".
The reason behind this might be I have not checked the option which allows to install Non-market apps (which is available inside NookColor Tools and I'm not getting NookColor Tools Icon on my device UI).
Can anyone guide me as to how to install the APK file and not getting the security error mentioned above?
Extras? That does not sound like a Nook Color. That sounds like a Nook HD. And that screen shot looks like an HD. Are you sure you have a Color? If you don't, you are in the wrong thread. If you have a Nook HD, then look at my HD/HD+ Tips thread linked in my signature.
If you have a Nook Color, use the Manual Nooter 5.08.20 to root it and get Play Store to install apps.

I'm pretty sure that I'm using Nook Color only (I get that from About Device tab in settings).
Also, Screenshot is taken from my device only.
Extras are part of Nook Color also. Why would I need to root the device in order to get Play Store as I have the apk file of app I have developed and it's not on play store.
Can you suggest anything/any links for this issue?

What does the about device say the model number is?
You need to do Manual Nooter because it does more than root. It adds Play Store, Nook Color Tools, zeam launcher, and allows unknown sources.
If you don't want to do Manual Nooter, you can set up ADB and sideload install your app. But if it is a Nook Color, you need to provision it first per the instructions in the Nook Developer site.

Model Number: BNRV200
Software Version: 1.4.3
And I have completed the provisioning procedure and copied the provision file to root folder. Still I'm getting "extras" screen as shown in above thumbnail.

Have you tried connecting ADB? If you get ADB working, the next step is to install the Nook Color Tools app by typing "ADB install NookColorTools.apk" at the command prompt from the folder where you have the app. Then you can go to extras and nct should be there. You can install any app this way. I would recommend another launcher next.

By don't get anything, what do you mean? Unrecognized command or an empty device list. Do you have android debugging turned on? Go to the Nook developers site to see how to set up ADB.
I don't know why you don't do it the easy way with Manual Nooter.

Netflix: Menu Loads Fine to Black Screen Permanent

Hi guys. Anybody having trouble running Netflix on a rooted Nook Color. Pretty sure I'm still running CM7.2. The menus load without problem, then you select a show and it's a total blank screen. Thanks for any help.
What version of Netflix are you using? I've heard you can use the latest one with CM7, but I have always used version 1.8.1. If you Google it, you should be able to find the app file.

Yeah, from everything I've seen 1.8.1 is supposed to be the best option. I need to get the same for my CM10 installed Nook.

Just downloaded the .apk from the dropbox link. A couple of the others seem to not work. Haven't put it on the Nook yet (needs to charge).

Accidently messed up lockscreen... Please help!

Hi, I have a nook Color running cm7.2 and using the ADW launcher.
Earlier I downloaded an app that allows me to have an iOS type lockscreen after I unlock the primary lockscreen. I set up quick unlock where you use the home button to unlock the tablet, but it doesn't recognize the Nook button as the home button when it is.
Now I can't unlock my tablet.
Oops.
Is there any way to reset the lock screen or somehow fix this without formatting the card?
Thanks.
If it's a free app you could adb to /data/app and rename the offending lock screen apk. Just add ".bak" (without quotes) to the end of the filename. You may have to reboot it but the app should be gone after that.
If you at running CM entirely of the SD card you should be able to browse to it with the card plugged into a computer and rename the file there.

Thanks for your reply, but that's not exactly the problem I'm having.
The problem I'm having is that I set up quick unlock so it would unlock when I hit the home button. The nook doesn't recognize the Nook button on the tablet as home button. I don't have the home button set up on the screen as a soft button.
Thanks for your help.

Sorry I misunderstood.
You might have a look at this thread :http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=971768. If it is the home key you have as the quick unlock it should be keyevent 3 instead of 82 in the command.
Hope it works, good luck.
No problem! Thanks for your help! Il
Is there an easier way??
Would there be a way to reinstall the OS, like in an update?

Could I do that, but with CM7? I run CM from an SD card, so my NC isn't rooted.

I thought you were talking about stock.
You need to go to my tips thread and install the alternate CWM for SD in section B in the second post. Then use that to do a factory reset. That should remove the unlock.

Oh, okay. Thanks!
To reinstall, would I just copy and paste the .zip into the boot partition of the SD?
