Hello all, I did this rooting http://nookdevs.com/NookTouch_Rooting and I'm not happy with that.
1. I cannot make Market working. It fails due to missing library.
This did not help http://nookdevs.com/Honeycomb_Google_Apps_and_Market I installed two files at the bottom of the thread as suggested. Vending application still not working.
2. Search in many aplications doesn't work.
3. no matches found for: null shows when I try to download a dictionary in colordict or even Opera showed this couple of times.
Many other apps work as expected but some of hey features are still missing.
Is it a good idea restore the backup and root with touchnooter? http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1132693
I don't know if I can re-root with touchnooter without restore?
Market fix
because of this error this Market fix does not work either.

Installing the SearchMarket App
From the Nook Touch, open the Opera web browser.
Type “searchmarket app” in the Google search box located in the upper right corner.
Google will automatically show results for search market as two words so you have to select where it says “Search instead for searchmarket app”.
Then the first listing will be for the SearchMarket app at AppBrain. That’s where you want to go.
At AppBrain, tap the QR/more icon. Then scroll down a little and tap where it says install. It will re-direct to the SearchMarket listing in the actual Android Market to download and install.
Once installed, it will appear in the Nook’s app drawer where you can use it to successfully run searches in the Android Market.

Market
Hi, Yesterday I deregistered the nook and rooted with touchnooter which works better than root image I used before.
Google apps work so far except Market which cannot connect. I'll try Vending.apk which you posted.
edit1: Newer Market works just as expected and I fixed also search with SearchMarket app. I thing touchnooter is a good choice.

I have rooted my Nook Touch and found I could not search market. I read several articles and attemped to get Market to search. In the process I removed the vending.apk (with adb) and attemped to install a new market that reportely was working with the Touch.
This prompted several errors and finally installed the new Market, however the Market would not run, only allowing the credit/accept page then returned to the main menu. I have uninstalled/attempted to install via ADB and also used Push with no suscess.
Apparently I am missing some step and now need all the advice I can get
THANKS!

This is a working version of market: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=15084704&postcount=51. I just install it over the one that comes with TouchNooter after I've TouchNootered the nook. I copy the vending.apk from my computer to a download directory on my SD card and then, using Root Explorer to access it on my Nook Touch, install it. Works a charm. HTH.
That was the answer! THanks
Hi
my market dont work,and i have not root explorer& file manager
how install apps & market ?
Access market on your computer (PC/Mac/Linux), choose programs, and then enter market. The programs you downloaded on the computer will be downloaded to the nook.
I can't access the Market site; it complains that I don't have any devices registers and tells me to start with the device first :/

Jago, It seems Google has blocked the nook from being able to access the market, from PC. Read this thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1294723&highlight=android+market
Hi All,
Rooted my nook, market worked on the second day as posted on threads all seems well..
Installed multitouch app thanks to this site, and downloaded ES file explorer from Google Play website straight to my nook in hopes to install the norefresh tool here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1568560
Just 2 issues.
1. When trying to install norefresh tool, I get some message that for security, no non-market apss can be downloaded. I found a thread saying to initiate the process of downloading an Amazon App to find the "secret menu" in order to change this setting.. However, see problem #2 below...
2. No browsers work.
Opera Mini doesn't open, and I tried pushing into my nook from my desktop by re-downloading Opera Mini.. Install looked fine, when I try to open Opera Mini on my NST, I see it start but then it ultimately fails when I try to open.. For the generic browser, it opens, but when I try to search it just brings me back to the Android Homepage.
Any help is appreciated, thanks.
Did you enable non market apps using "Nook color tools"?
Remember the box is checked when nook color tools comes up.
You need to uncheck it and then recheck the box.
Opera mini does not work for me too. Opera mobile works fine.
Searchmarket is useful to get market search working
Hope this helps

The default browser doesn't bring you back to the android homepage, it just crashes
I have rooted my NST v 1.1.2 with TouchNooter. I waited a day and Market now comes up and gmail will sync. While I can download from Market as long as there is an app in the "what's hot" or 'new" lists, I cannot search. If I try to search for an app, nothing happens.
Also, I can search on Amazon market place but the files will not download; on Amazon when I try to download an app I get an empty dialog box with nothing in it except a button labeled 'ok'. I did get into NookColor Tools and unchecked and then rechecked 'Allow Non-Market Apps."
SuperManager will not launch so I can't install any apks (is there any other way to install an apk?)
I saw a hint on another thread that 'Fix permissions' in NookColor Tools might be an option, but I cannot find how do do this.
Any ideas on how to fix without restoring and re-rooting?
Is there a terminal loaded by default so I can enter commands? If so, how do I access terminal?
Edit: I discovered that "Fix Permissions" is actually in the NookTouch Tools. I had to go into SuperUser to allow NookTouch Tools and then I could run "fix permissions". However, it had no effect on the problems noted above.
Thanks!
Try to install SearchMarket Ap by youten and use that to search for apps in Market.
Launch the Opera Mobile browser or whatever broswer you have and type “searchmarket app” into the search bar.
The top listing will direct to AppBrain.
Tap the big install button and it will direct to the Android Market to install it.
(this is a fix we are given for NSTGL so hopefully it will work for you also)

Hi,
I am kind of new to Android (not linux) and I am asking myself, if it is even possible to enable the search function somehow in Google Market.
There are several attempts to do so and some report it working. Unfortunately, the working reports are so old that I am confused weather it is still possible or not.
I have tried several Vending.apk's, even the ones reported working as http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=15084704&postcount=51
I am on 1.1.2. Maybe someone could confirm/disprove Market search working or not. Then we would know if struggling is worth the task getting it to work.
Thanks for the reply

Use SearchMarket.apk to search for apk's in the market.
It work's if you have registered your gmail account correctly (that is your market.apk works/connects to google play).
http://www.appbrain.com/app/searchmarket/youten.redo.searchmarket?install=appwidget
yeah no, that was not what i meant.
Of course Market is working with a proper gmail adress. I was talking about it being possible to search the market w/o searchmarket app. Like people telling it would work, but most posts are still of 2011. So my question is: Is it even possible to search the Market in nowadays Google Play time w/o 3rd party apps?
Why is searching not possible? IMO, it is because of server restictions, not because of the Vending.apk. Right?
So I assume these "claimed to be working" Vending.apk's are not working anyway anymore, are they?
Thx
How can I get the SearchMarket.apk file for manual adb installation? My Nook Market app won't let me install any app.
Edit: Managed to get it installed by searching for it from within the Browser and installing from the web interface. Weird but after that the SearchMarket app was shown topmost on MyApps in Market and could be clicked, which begun installation.
The problem is Market for Nook only displays a limited # (~15) of MyApps (given I have a Galaxy S3 with 350+ apps installed and that the Nook Market doesn't restrict to Nook installed ones).
just download market search from gstore ....... log on gmail acc that u root ur nst with and go to google store and search ur appz ur desire and download to ur acc ....... once u connect ur nook to wifi ur appz will download successfully , between that i am use market seacher on my rooted nst 1.1.2 and works great till now , try methid above with reinstall market searcher
good luck

Just in case.
youten.redo.searchmarket.apk
The apk itself is free so i guess uploading it here is not illegal.
I recently uninstalled (deleted) the apks of certain android apps like gtalk, calendar from my system/app folder on my rooted NST using root explorer.
Not sure if it is related, but, unable to install any app now from the app market. I use app-brain app market for downloading apps.
I'm able to find the apps, but on clicking on download, it doesn't get downloaded and instead says it is 'downloading' without any apparent change.
Is the problem related to the deletion of certain apks?
Note: haven't deleted any apk even associated with the word download/market.

I'm having the same problem. I was a able to download apps from market a couple days ago but not yesterday or today. I don't think I uninstalled anything in the meantime. Anyone have any ideas?

Solved it. I Had uninstalled gtalk thinking it was unnecessary on the NST but it broke the market.
Installed gtalk and the market started working fine again.
You are sure you didn't uninstall anything?
What is the error btw? It takes you to the download page but the download doesn't begin?
The search in Relaunch usually finds only a small fraction of the books that match my search string, whereas the standard Nook search always works reliably. I have a few thousand, sideloaded books on a 16GB SD card, and have rooted my NST with NookManager. Have others seen this search bug?

I have Relaunch v1.3.8, which I suspect is the version installed by Nook Manager as part of the root.
On Google Play I can see a Relaunch v1.4.3, so clearly Relaunch is not one of my many apps that are automatically updated on my NST. Is there a good reason why Relaunch has not been updated? Should I attempt to update it manually or will I do damage?
mergen3107 said:
I have contacted with the person who is working on the Realaunch right now (username haron) and he said this issue appears only when you are in process manager. The Relaunch itself consumes very little amount of memory - as reported by vast majority of the users.
Yeah, you should update it manually, because actually it is being very actively tested and updated regularly at the forums here (however I don't know what Relaunch on Google Play you are talking about. If you this then it is completely different app)
The forums are in Russian, but you can find the links there which are constantly being appeared. For example, this is the latest apk.

I don't understand what you mean by process manager. I do my book searching from the Relaunch home screen.
You are quite right about Google Play's ReLaunch - Launcher. It did install but is a completely different app.
Main_test.apk, which I've just downloaded from your link, does begin to install, after asking permission to replace the Nook Relaunch. Unfortunately, the install fails with the error: Application not installed.

Please excuse my ignorance but am I taking a risk in removing relaunch, in order to update it? Without relaunch, I presume I can't launch any apk.
Can I do the delete and update from within ES File Explorer without risk? If ES File Explorer crashes, how do I restart it without a launcher installed?
