Following GMPOWER's instructions (LINK), I used ClockWorkMod 3.2.0.1 and manualnooter-5.08.20.basic.block_updates.zip to successfully root my Nook Color. (It's an original, non-blue-dot model which I wiped clean, re-registered and updated to 1.4.3 before rooting.) After rooting, I had a problem with accessing the Market app, but I gained access by following the "Market has limited visibility" solution in GMPOWER's OP. The Market app updated itself to the Play Store, and everything's working great. So far, so good, and thanks to GMPOWER!
I then executed the same process on my son's Nook Color, which I also wiped clean, etc. (It's also a non-blue-dot.) The root process worked, and everything went the same, except that I can't get access to the Market. I've gone through the "Market has limited visibility" solution multiple times, but always get the "An error has occurred. Please try again later." error message. I've gone through 3 cycles of completely wiping the device, reloading to 1.4.3, and rerooting, but without success. Except for access to the Market, it's running fine - that is, I have access to all of his books and apps in the B&N garden, I can run other apps from the drawer, and I can install new apps from B&N's app store. Just can't get it to run the Market. Any suggestions?
Noob apologies if I haven't provided enough information to address the question.

Did you happen to update to the 1.4.3 firmware through CWM, or using the stock update process? Throughout the hundreds of times that I have flashed the stock firmware, most all of the market issues have happened while flashing the stock firmware from CWM. One of the best ways to get back to the stock firmware, is to follow the 8 failed boot process, then download the most current B&N firmware from B&N, rename the file to "update.zip," place in the root of the media partition, and turn the screen off.
Just for my two cents worth of experience...
If you've lost the 8 failed boots for whatever reason, you're better off flashing back to an older stock firmware and then doing the update from B&N to the latest...

Thanks for the suggestion, but unfortunately I haven't made any progress. I've been resetting to stock firmware using the 8 failed boot process, and I've been using the stock 1.4.3 update (not CWM) to bring it current before running MN5. I have also been erasing and deregistering the device from settings before resetting to stock. I've gone through the whole process at least 5 more times since your post, always with the same result. After successfully completing the MN5 installation, I enter the Market app and follow the prompt to link the device to my son's Google account (which reports success), and then when I continue to where I would accept TOS, it gives me the error box. Following the procedure you posted doesn't get me past the error.
By the way, I started out using the same SD card that I used to successfully root my own device. The last time I went through the process to root my son's, I reformatted the card and rewrote it (using Win32DiskImager with the card in my laptop's slot) with freshly downloaded copies of CWM 3.2.0.1 and manualnooter-5.08.20.basic.block_updates.zip. No difference.
Sorry to be a pain - any other ideas? Thanks again for any help you can offer.

It's no pain, I would also like to find out what is causing the problem just in case it come up again in the future. Every time that I have experienced the problem that you are describing, that method has worked to fix it. Download this modified version on MN, and give it a try, LINK. I updated the market version in it try to get past that step, and also included an app called "Market Device Info." Sorry, I hosted it on mediafire, not my googlecode account just so people wont be downloading it, and trying to use it.
Once you have signed into the market, if it fails, open the app "Market Device Info," and check to see that you have a registered androidid. If this version of MN fails again on you, I will attempt to reproduce the problem on my device tomorrow to try to find a fix for you.

That did the trick, thanks! I wiped and reset to stock again, manually updated to 1.4.3, then ran the modified MN5 you provided. After the root completed, I opened the Play Store app, linked to my son's Google account, and it then prompted me to accept TOS with no errors. I've installed a couple of apps, and the only thing I had to do was untick and retick "Allow Non-Market Apps" to convince one of the apps to install. Everything seems to be working great now, thanks again!!

Please pardon this stupid question but I have tried to find a clear answer b4 coming to this thread. I am attempting to root my NC 1.4.3 w/ the Mannoot 5.08.20 and CWM 3.2.01 per the instructions. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1494901
The two questions remain are:
1) You must do a complete wipe before installing this package.
What constitutes a complete wipe
2) YOU MUST DOWNLOAD ALL YOUR B&N CONTENT BEFORE YOU CONTINUE,
Is this archive, to a SD or just download books from Library marked New?
Sorry to be a pain but If I screw this up... I'll never hear the end of it from my 'loving' wife..

1. There's a good description of how to do a complete wipe at http://nookdevs.com/Flash_back_to_clean_stock_ROM.
2. When I rooted my NC and my son's, I first downloaded all books, magazines and BN apps that weren't marked as archived with BN. In other words, there wasn't any BN content in my library with a "download" link attached to it. That's my interpretation of GMPOWER's instructions, and you should take what I say with a grain of salt, but I haven't had any trouble with accessing content after rooting.
I think I'm having a similar problem. I used MN 5.08.20 to root from 1.4.3. Everything rooted fine but whenever I try download an app from the market I get an insufficient memory error. I have tried all of the market corrections stated above. Does anyone have any suggestions? Thanks in advance

Use CWM on an SD to wipe cache. Play store uses cache to temporarily store downloaded apps. It may be full.
Edit: I did a little research and Play Store temporarily stores the downloaded file to /data/data/com.android.providers.download/cache as download.apk, download-1.apk, etc. And it installs it to /data/app. So if you somehow have problems with that download location it will say not enough room.

I cannot get the market to install any applications, though it is working and searchable.
I rooted my nook2e with Xboxexpert's nooter.img and script package, and updated the vending.apk with no results. I ran touchnooter 1.6.24, and now the market works and is searchable, but none of the apps i pick will download, or install.
It's been incremental gains here and there though this whole process... just one last step to get market working!
(also, the youtube app wont run, and gmail says it must be synced with an account, but in the Settings tab for the nook, you cannot add any of the facebook/twitter/google account information, it just flashes the screen and goes back to the previous setting screen.
I had a similar problem. If you can get vending.apk it will fix the download problem

This is the one i updated to, didnt fix the downloading problem.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=15084704&postcount=51
ok, so, i fixed it, and here's how!
I cleared the nook, using the menues to do a factory memory wipe...
Then i put TouchNooter on an SD card, and installed that. Then i ran XboxExpert's batch script to install apps and change settings etc. Then i put the updated Vending.apk file on the sd card and ran that update twice... the first time it made the market not work at all.
but now it works and downloads and searches and everything!
I recently bought a new Nook N2E. It actually came with firmware 1.0.0 strangely enough. I did slap 1.1.0 on there.
I want to root this baby. My question is should I revert to 1.0.0, upgrade to 1.0.1, root with touchnooter and proceed with everyone else, or just manually root it noogie style? Or I could stay at 1.1.0 and rip out of touchnooter the things that are not working. I'm just looking for opinions.

There's no simple answer to that.
In regards to Market things are a little messy on 1.1.0 right now, but we're working on it.
Some people claim they got Market working on 1.1.0, but GabrialDestruir is having trouble with finding a reliable solution for that and so do I.
If you absolutely want Market right now, then save you the trouble and go back to 1.0.1 + TouchNooter 1.6.24
If root is all you need atm, then just check out the updated uRamdisk thread.

If he does go back to 1.0.1/TouchNooter 1.6.2.4, won't the B&N update eventually download automatically and force the unit to update?
there is a way how to (successfully?) block OTA updates, just google it out. It is simple sqlite3 db update.
Thanks for the replies. I decided that since Ive never seen the N2E running android, I would go 1.0.1 and Touchnooter and it worked like a charm. Only thing I cant figure out how to do is change Google Sync from Push to Manual
Updated my rooted Nook touch to Ver 1.1.0, after reverting to factory version as received. Used the two modified files in the SD image, and after the third boot it worked. I get Youtube, Gmail, and Market successfully. Now I cannot install any non-market apps. Somewhere I saw a menu and accepted permissions which I thought would allow installation of many non-market APK's. Guess I need some help, but close to success.

"Install blocked" message appears "for security, your phone is set to block... Android Market", I had earlier checked accept non-market apps.

NookColorTools, even if non market apps is checked, uncheck and check it gain.
I've had success three times rooting it with full Market and search.
Here's what I did:
1) Backed up with noogie.img on SD and Roadkil's DiskImage.
2) Used nookRestore on SD to restore /system.
3) Erased and Deregistered to wipe /data.
4) Skipped B&N registration (I don't need/want it).
5) Applied 1.1 firmware update.
6) Used TouchNooter 1.6.24 on SD, modified with 1.1 uRamdisk and framework.jar.
7) Triple booted TouchNooter (gave it five minutes each time), removed card, rebooted, skipped Google registration.
8) Youtube --> GMail --> Market. Downloaded a program in Market.
9) Installed SearchMarket and ADB Wireless Widget. Enabled non-market apps with NookColorTools. Uninstalled YouTube (someone said this helps).
10) Used ADB over wireless to push Vending.apk from here. SearchMarket is no longer needed.
My original thread (with links and other details) is on MobileRead in the nook sections. As ros87 noted, GabrialDestruir hasn't got it to work, but I see no reason why it shouldn't if I've done it successfully on different devices. My guess is that some part of the process is being done differently.
TouchNooter's three boots went like this for me:
1st) Infinite loop of nook dots. I reset after about five minutes.
2nd) Complete freeze either on "Rooted Forever" or nook dots screen.
3rd) Success! and boot to Android Welcome. From here I removed the SD and rebooted.
Right, let's delve right into this. Though I warn you, it's quite long.
I recently purchased a Nook Simple Touch in the hopes that, after rooting, I would be able to install the Amazon Kindle app.
Things have not gone according to plan.
I am by no means technically inept, I revel in subverting electrical devices into doing things in which they were never designed.
This is why it pains me to have to come here, asking for assistance.
What I Did:
I used TouchNooter 2.1.31 to root my Nook, which was at version 1.1. I followed the somewhat detailed instructions to the letter, and was happily greeted with the Android screen. "Huzzah!" I exclaimed in my exuberance, all was as it should be, my buttocks finally able to unclench itself.
I proceeded with the setup, when I came upon the choice of if I wanted Google to be able to find where I was located, and if they could have access to my Nook, I unchecked both options, even though the instructions recommended not to.
The setup seemed to proceed unhindered. I put in my Email, and I was shown the desktop. I then proceeded to open Youtube, and logged in.
This is probably where I made a mistake. instead of trying to sign into Gmail, I went straight to the market. It didn't work as I anticipated. So I shut the Nook down and chose to wait the recommended 24 hours.
After 24 hours, I returned to my Nook, and attempted to log into the Android Market. It Worked! Goody Gumdrops.
However, attempting to download anything resulted in a message first stating "Your app will now download" And after a few seconds, a notification would pop up, telling me the download has failed, and to try again.
I chose to give up, and instead try the Amazon App Store. It booted up fine, and everything seemed to work. However, upon attempting to download something, it would start, then immediately stop, without any trace of it happening.
Now I was pretty sure, the reason for all this, is I hadn't synced my Gmail account with my Youtube account. I went and attempted it, only to discover it would supersede my Yahoo account if I continued. I chose to make an entirely new account.
I then went back into Youtube to log into my new account, and after doing so, I was greeted my a 401 Loading Error. I exited the app. and was going to try again by clicking on the Youtube App. Only now it wouldn't show up."Fiddlesticks" I mumbled, what now?
I went back to the instructions, and found that the Youtube App can sometimes flake out for unknown reasons. So that's where I left off.
I figure the easiest route to fix this would be to re-root the Nook.
And that's where I could use a bit of help.
How you can help:
I'd like to know the easiest way to re-root a nook that ISN'T Bricked. If it's not too much trouble.
Can I just use the menu inside the nook to reset to factory settings?
Or should I use this method? http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1289233
What do I do once It's fixed?
After I re-root it, I'm reading that, because it runs on Android 2.1, many apps no longer work, and older versions must be obtained.
It seems like I need the file ES File Explorer to be able to install these old apps, but how does one go about getting said file explorer on the Nook in the first place?
So if anyone would be so kind, as to take the time to not only read, but answer my questions, I would be eternally grateful.
If all you really want is the kindle app, I would suggest you root using 'tinynoot'. No Google apps or appstore, but you can download the Kindle for android app .apk and install it using EZ Installer, which you can get from the Amazon Marketplace. If you actually want to read email and install apps from the Google app store, you will need to use an different method however.
I beg of you: do a reset to stock and back up your device using noogie if you have not already got a bog-standard, unmodified state backup of your device. Your backup should be ~2gig in size, and a really careful person test-fires that backup on a 2-4 gig storage medium other than their NST to be sure they wind up with a disk that has 8 partitions on it once they restore.
This weekend, I decided to try manually updating my rooted glowworm to 1.2.0. I was more-or-less successful but still saw enough unusual things that I went ahead and did an image based restore. Time to backup and restore was less than 15 minutes all told. Time to **** around with manually copying in the files, rather longer
You can indeed use tinynoot which installs the Amazon appstore (much less complex than getting Play going) and I'd think that you could get Kindle installed via Amazon?
FWIW, the Kindle app on the Nook e-ink devices, ahem, fellates gangrenous goats.
I recommend using Calibre and the de-drm tools to manage your own DRM and open the possibility of migrating most or all of your Amazon library to any format you like.
Hey all,
I've rooted my Nook stock before, and had it work just fine, but after awhile it became very unstable and slow. I recently re-rooted, using GMPOWER's method, everything seems to be working, except the Android Market.
I followed the steps for limited market visibility, but there's been no change. The Market won't update to Google Play, and when I access it, it doesn't show any apps - just a message stating, "No matching content in Android Market." I am able to search for some apps, but very few show up. (I've installed File Expert, and updated it just fine, but that's about it.)
For the life of me, I can't figure out what's wrong. My Gmail app works fine. But my Amazon Appstore .apk won't install either. It'll ask if I want to install using App Installer or Package Installer, but both give an error message. App Installer says, "Unable to install. This application was not able to install onto your device," as if my device were not rooted. Package Installer says, "Cannot parse the package." I tried downloading a newer version of the Google Play Store, and got the same errors.
I feel like I might be missing something obvious, but I can't figure it out. I'm tempted to revert back to 1.4.2 or earlier and re-root again, but that's a lot of work (mainly to download all my B&N content again).
Any thoughts or suggestions or mere stabs in the dark? Anyone?

Have you tried installing Rom Manager via sideloading and wiping the Dalvik cache? If that does not work try installing a custom ROM.
Hi Everyone,
I tried to post this question to the NTGAppsAttack thread itself however the website didn't allow me to.
So, I've installed NookManager on my U.S. version Nook Simple Touch and all is good there.
After some fiddling I got NTGAppsAttack to run on my nook. However, when I went to sign in, I got an error message telling me that my nook could not connect to the server, and there was no cancel button. As I could not get back to the relaunch homescreen, I rebooted the device. I then tried to uninstall the market, but this was "unsuccessful."
Following this I tried to reinstall NTGAppsAttack, but on rebooting I was not brought to the page with the android dude and the hand. I still could not uninstall the market.
I re-rooted my device but the NTGAppsAttack apps were still present and I couldn't uninstall the market.
What can I do to get NTGAppsAttack working on my device?
Thanks in advance everyone, and sorry about my inexperience.

This sounds like you never ran NTGAppsAttack from the NookManager menu. Are you sure you made it through step 9 OK? When you ran NTGAppsAttack from the NookManager menu did you get the messages "Install started" then "Install complete"? Go ahead and run it again to see the messages.

Yes I have installed it via this process over ten times to see install complete, When I then exit remove SD and reboot it starts up to re-launch where there is only 18 apps! No one else seems to have this problem! Is there anything I needed to allow or disable between rooting and installation. Where do the apps from ntg appear?
Many thanks,
OK, then your install of NTGAppsAttack to the NookManager sd card must be missing some files. What do you have in /custom/files/NTGAppsAttack/gapps/system/app on your NookManager sd card?

I see. The first image shows the files in that folder. However upon closer inspection upon extraction with alzip this is the output message I don't know whether this has any relevance?
Many Thanks,

All those corrupted archive file messages are the problem. You didn't get a clean download of the zip file and need to download it again,
this should work

Hi Everyone,
I tried to post this question to the NTGAppsAttack thread itself however the website didn't allow me to.
So, I've installed NookManager on my U.S. version Nook Simple Touch and all is good there.
After some fiddling I got NTGAppsAttack to run on my nook. However, when I went to sign in, I got an error message telling me that my nook could not connect to the server, and there was no cancel button. As I could not get back to the relaunch homescreen, I rebooted the device. I then tried to uninstall the market, but this was "unsuccessful."
Following this I tried to reinstall NTGAppsAttack, but on rebooting I was not brought to the page with the android dude and the hand. I still could not uninstall the market.
I re-rooted my device but the NTGAppsAttack apps were still present and I couldn't uninstall the market.
What can I do to get NTGAppsAttack working on my device?
Thanks in advance everyone, and sorry about my inexperience.

what you have to do is complete the registration steps faster. I know it sounds weird, but in the background it is updating and if you finish signing in before the update finishes your request will time out of the server. Reboot and uninstall the market (try again) then repeat signing in quicker. NO FILES ARE MISSING. I hope this was helpful
Install NGTAppsAttack frozen Nook
Hi all,
I have installed NGAAppsAttack through stages 1 to 9 on http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2086582
and ejected the card and waited for the Nook to reboot and got the start up screen.
I was getting ready to quickly follow the next steps and sign in and then install some apps but the screen remains on start up several hours later.
I have tried holding down the power button but no change.
Any advice?
Thanks
Chris

Usually holding down the power button for 20-30 seconds to ensure the device is powered off then holding the power button down for 5 or 6 seconds to power it back on works. If not try booting back to NookManager, restoring your backup and starting over again.
