App Installation Help - Nook Color Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I rooted my NC running 1.2 using ManualNooter-4.5.2 whenever I try to install an app that isn't from the B&N store it says to archive and try again. Also whenever I search for an app like angry birds on the android store it doesn't show it just a list of other not related apps. Please help a newbie out.

[Q] Issue with Installing Angry Birds on Rooted Nook Color

Hey guys - quick question on Angry Birds (its driving me nuts!)
I just rooted my NC running 1.2. Everything is working fine, except for Angry Birds. When I try to download the app from the android market, the download finishes and then i get a prompt that installation has failed.
Same thing when I try to install via ASTRO - i get an installation failed prompt.
I have tried everything: check and uncheck the 'allow non0market apps', installing with the SD card mounted/unmounted, clearing cache, you name it!
The stupid thing is that I have been able to install rio from the market, but cant install the original and/or the seasons.
HELP!
Temporarily removing the SC card should allow installation.

Tried that as well - doesnt work...
Any help on this? some apps are installing like a charm (dropbox, Angry Birds Rio, Fancy Widgets) while others like Angry Birds (original and Seasons) and Live Holdem Poker Pro are not installing.
Im going crazy trying to figure this out!
See below but for Android market browse to the /data/com.goggle.anroid.app.maps/cache on the SD card and then follow the steps in first and last posts.

[Q] Rooted Nook Color 1.2: Amazon App Store Purchases Failed

Good Day
I just rooted my nook color 1.2 and everything works fine. I successfully downloaded Amazon's app store, now I when I attempt to download an app from the Amazon App Store (Kindle, Angry Birds, Bible ect) all say "Purchase Failed".
I tried this with a blank SD Card installed and without.
I've clicked an unclicked allow no market apps under nook tools.
I've attempted to search here and I have been unsuccessful.
Would someone please lend me a hand?
Thanks in advance
Okay so after playing around with it, I have to purchase it online then download through the app store. I cannot purchase and download it from the app store app in the nook.
Sorry for my ignorance.

I have no trouble using the app store app to install or purchase apps directly from my nook.
Your original post left me confused about whether you have the "allow non-Market installs" checked or not.
How did you root your nook?
I am having the same issue. I used to be able to installs Apps from Amazon. However, as of about a week or two ago, whenever I go to install it, I receive an error message that says, "Application Not Installed". I rooted using MN 4.5.6.
Keep in mind that most apps downloaded from Amazon require the Amazon App itself to be installed. Have read that this was uncovered recently.
If this is what you were referring to that is.
I'm having same problem... Mine says problem parsing package.. My android market is very limited and doesn't download either! Can anyone help me?

[Q] NST GMarket search

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.

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?

App not installed error,error-24,error 403,insufficient storage space(solved)!

So I've seen this error coming up in many forums, mostly people advice a factory reset, reflash of the ROM or something else. As far as I know this solution has not been posted in any other forum(please correct me if I am wrong). Now, this error usually happens to me when I've installed the app before, uninstalled it and I'm trying to install it again(or) when I try to install a paid app from the play store I get an error (-24) or the insufficient storage error. All these errors have the same solution. I've tested it on the HTC One, Note 10.1 and the S3.
Ok here's the solution(I take the app Modern Combat 4 as an example here). I also assume that you are rooted.
1.) Download the app Root Explorer or Root browser or any other similar app from the play store.
2.) Next in root explorer go to /data/data.
3.) Look for the package name of the app you're installing. Eg. For MC4 com.android.gameloft.ANMP.GloftM4HM.
4.)Delete the package.
5.)Try installing the app now, it SHOULD install.
Note:If it still doesn't work for you, go to /data/dalvik-cache and try locating the file and delete it.
I hope I helped someone here because when I had this problem it pissed the s**t out of me and I couldn't find any real help. If it helped you please press the thanks button!!
