Hello.I just wanted to install some apk files, but nook simple touch glowlight tell that there is no free space.
Believe me, there is some free space there . How can I solve this?
Um, there is a solution/reason for this that has been posted here.
This does not happen if you just install with adb install (which I always do).

Hi I just can't run ADB via wifi or USB, so I leave the ADB idea. Will be great if you have a link with a solution

It would appear that even on the website (which shows At&T blocked apps) that the sideloading wonder machine is gone.
Dang! wish I had got the sideloading machine.
isnt it still available at android central? Those are the guys who wrote it, I thought...
if at was at androidcentral then you would have to sideload it, completely defeating the purpose.
Why don't you just put the .apk on your phone and install it?

that's sideloading. Anything other than a direct market download is sideloading, and blocked by At&T

Yea...that's what I'm saying. Enable side loading it takes like 30 seconds. It's more of a hassle to use wonder machine.

They moved it to only be available on their forum. You have to create a username/password, but the links then become available for download.

But I can't Sideload due to At&T so how can I download it from their website. That's sideloading?
I'm confused....

lol....The Side load wondermachine stays on your computer. You download an .APK file oyu want, plug the phone in and it will side load it to your phone for you. You do not place the APK on the phone at all.
There is also a video on how to use the program:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zzs_1DeSgWI&feature=player_embedded
Quote from the website:
"Installation:
Unzip the SWM folder to a conveinent place on your Windows computer. The program, and all files inside the SWM folder need to stay together.
You will need to install the USB driver for your model of Android device. Information about this can be had from your carrier, or from your device manufacturer.
Usage:
Ensure that USB debugging is enabled on your Android device. For most devices, this can be found in menu>settings>applications>development
Plug your Android device into a high speed USB port on your computer.
Start the application, and browse to the apk file you would like to install by clicking the "Choose a file" button.
Once you have chosen the apk to install, the "Go" button will be enabled. Click it, and you'll see the command window which prompts you as it installs the file. "

Root the phone. It's completely safe. If you follow DG's instructions on the thread it's pretty much idiot proof too. And then sideloading will be enabled!
edit: a bunch of other things will be enabled too. and he also has an unroot script there for you.
Yeah, I don't really get this. Download SuperOneClick. You can root your phone and enable sideloading all at once. If you ever want to go back SuperOneClick will also unroot your phone as well. There's no danger doing it this way.
SuperOneClick isn't the best way to root and enable your phone. There is an issue with Busybox. Designergears recommends using aroot to root and enable sideloading. If you used SuperOneClick to root...simply unroot it.
I'm afraid I don't know enough about software to use superoneclick and such.

Hey, i think the best way for you is to do it like it says in this thread:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=981866
except if you have a bell atrix, i think than youll have to wait a bit so the devs make it for it (im not sure if its a problem tho)
use aroot. I rooted with super one click and also clicked enable outside apps but it didn't work. I then used aroot and everything worked fine.

You didnt try the Sideload wonder machine? Check out all the links and instructions I posted. It is really easy, especailly if you dont trust yourself enough to root the phone.

Seriously, he posts that the SWM is down but I don't think he even knows what the SWM is.
And for everyone telling him to root, transferring files with SWM is so much easier that rooting just for side loading is kind of a waste.
You can also sideload via adb without root.
I've used wonder machine and worked beautifully.
you can always use Droidexplorer or adb
and if you can navigate this website and consciously comprehend what is being discussed (aka process the text on the screen in your mind) you should be able to follow DGs root method
Sorry for the noob question but I haven't been able to figure this out. I just bought my son a Nook Color and I'm trying to root it. I can't get the drivers to install. I already have ADB installed from when I rooted my Kindle Fire. Every time I plug in the Nook, Windows installed the drivers automatically. I tried manually updating but it always says the best driver is installed. I tried some of the batch files other people created but nothing has worked. Any help would be appreciated. I hate being locked down.

Just a question why do you even need to install the drivers? They are not needed for root and then after you root you can use wireless adb which is a lot easier to set up and use.

Thanks for the reply. I basically just want the amazon app store. The Nook app store sucks. I was following some directions I found. I'll try some other methods.

If you just want to installthe Amazon app, then why you head into the ADB over USB thingy? Who lead you through that way?
I can help but it's irrelevant to get the Amazon app install and running.
Hey guys,
I've searched high and low in this forum and others for a solution to my problem, I have been unable to find one. I'm looking for a way to sideload apps onto a Kindle Fire so that, after the third party app has been installed, I can clear the Launcher data and the next time I start the device it boots to the setup and welcome screens like the very first boot.
The reason I want to avoid rooting or having to download a file manager app to the device is that I am planning to create a script for the process.
Any advice or links to a helpful guide?

Now I'm confused, on the Android Forums you said it was so you could give it to someone as a gift and you wanted to give them the "first-time use" experience. I really don't see anyone needing a script for something like this but I may be wrong.
It's more of a fun project for me than anything else, a Kindle Fire loaded with apps makes for a great and affordable gift and I have other family members who I intend to give the Kindle Fire to as a gift. But I don't want them to feel as though I've been mucking with it

I completely understand, I still think the easiest way would be to just use ES file explorer, or something similar, to install them and then just delete the app. Maybe someone here will have a different idea.
I may be confused, but couldn't youbjust build a rom with the apps loaded in and flash it?

Perhaps. Can you link me to any guides on this?
Are you trying to make a script that will be run on a computer or on the Fire itself? If you're running the script on an actual device (terminal emulator, gscript, etc):
Code:
pm install /path/to/file.apk
In that case the .apk will need to be copied onto the device first. If you're running a script from a computer and have the device plugged in via USB you can use:
Code:
adb install /path/to/file.apk
...and for that one the .apk needs to be on your computer somewhere. I know 'adb install' doesn't require root. I don't remember if 'pm install' does, but I think it doesn't. Either way, you just need to get a copy of the .apks you want to install.
Cant you just reset the device to factory defaults from the settings?

That gets rid of your apps as well.

I don't have any experience using adb, but I'll start looking into it.
hello,
i read there are different way to install application , i wish to try to understand all the way and how they work, could you help me in this ? i am a noob but i am perfectionnist
- open the market from your rooted nook, select the app , install
- open the market from a computer , connect with your google account, select the app, install
- find the apk , download on sd card , use a file explorer to install

i am just in the middle of looking for that in the forum, i don't understand what it is and how it works... can't find easy explanation...
The first three steps of one of my manual tutos:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=20069222&postcount=3
Helps you get ADB running on windows.
ADB is Android Debug Bridge. It provides terminal-based interface for interacting with your phone’s file system.
And this makes a small simple script to easily connect to your device.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=20069359&postcount=14
Check my other manual tutos if you are interested in some examples of what you can do with ADB. (On my sig)
thanks eded333, i will have a close look to that. I like to understand, but i feel like my computer skills are to small to go ahead in that step. but anyway, i will try
Unless you want to use your e-ink device as a tablet, you don't want to have a market app (even Amazon) on it. Or to have mail programs. I personally prefer to use it for reading though I have a normal tablet for other stuff.
Anyways, my point is try to get used to adb way, this one is keeping your nook less bloated than anything else.

Hi everybody
Apologies if this is already somewhere on the forum but I could not find it.
I have rooted my nook using nookmanager. Is there a way to install apps now without needing anything else? From what I read I need to install NTGAppsAttack. The problem is that I currently don't have access to any SD card. Is there a way to install it using ADB ? or any other way to install applications?
Note: when I tried the amazon appstore it told me that it was not available on my region :/
Thank you!

Look at the NTGAppsAttack install script. You can emulate what its doing by manually renaming & pushing the files with ADB. You can also install .apk files via ADB without installing the market.
