I used Nook Manager to root my Nook Glowlight V1 early this year. I love it, but I've been having a small problem that I haven't been able to figure out.
Most of my titles show up fine (using ReLaunch), but a few are garbled. . . most of the garbled ones display as "%t" (photo demonstrating this available via email if it's needed. . . I'm too new to post a link to the photo ).
But a few will show the author and then "%t", a few show "Unknown", and a few seem like just strings of characters.
I tried changing the text of the file names themselves. That doesn't seem to have any effect. I've looked at the metadata in Calibre, but I don't see anything that looks amiss. Frankly, I'm stuck, and that's why I need to ask this question! Could anyone point me toward a possible cause (or, even better. . . a solution)?
Thank you!

Hi Maneki!
I'd love to help, but I need a few more specifics.
1. Is your Nook Touch Glow on firmware 1.1.5, 1.2.0 or 1.2.1?
2. Are the problematic books signed with Adobe DRM?
3. How long have you been having this problem?
Later,

Of course!
1. It's on 1.2.1
2. No, they're not.
3. Since I first rooted, so since February. I thought I'd eventually find a thread here or elsewhere so I could fix the problem myself, but I suspect that I just don't know what I'm looking for.
Thanks!

Great, thanks for the info.
Have you already tried completely removing the offensive books from your Nook, rebooting, and then adding them back? If not, try that.

Sure thing.
Reply to your PM
Then I believe this solves your problem AND provides a cause.
In the Advanced Settings menu of ReLaunch, there are several file association settings. Look around in there and see if anything works.
I actually got rid of ReLaunch quite a while back, and am currently using ADW with the Minimalist theme. I absolutely love it. But, if you need me to look around in ReLaunch, please post the .apk for me and I'll temporarily reinstall it.

I tested the stock Library, and the titles do show up there.
An important element of the problem, which thenookieforlife3 kindly diagnosed and I neglected to mention, is that I'm using ReLaunch! So the problem is specifically that they're not displaying correctly in ReLaunch, not that they won't display correctly at all.

I must have messed something up while playing with settings when I first rooted (honestly, as is probably obvious from this thread, the level of versatility is kind of over my head!). . . I poked at a few things, and then I just restored the ReLaunch settings to default, and the titles show up again.
Thank you so much; that was massively helpful!

My Blockbuster app loads well, shows the movies I've rented, but returns the error code 0xc00d2713 in a white box when I try to download any of the rented movies. I have...
*Deactivated my TMOUS HD2, soft reset and reactivated it.
*Uninstalled the Blockbuster app, soft reset and reinstalled it.
*Reset my modem and router (just incase).
Can anyone figure this out? The only help T-Mobile had was trade for like new or new phone. I've taken loving care of my HD2 and I don't want someone else's problems.
Has anyone any idea what could cause this or am I once again doomed to the hard reset?
After looking, that error seems to be related to DRM.

I don't use the Blockbuster app at all (I don't think we have the same access in the UK), but are you supposed to be able to download a movie that you've rented?

Sorry, don't play with fire . But, yes, once you rent the movie you are suppose to be able to download it and play it. Have any ideas how to fix it? The app works if I do a hard reset; however, once I restore with Sprite backup, it will not download. The tmobile My Account "will be downloading soon" forever, too; although, I've fixed that problem.

Bizarre.
If it works after a hard reset, but stops after a restore with Sprite Backup, then it sounds like another app is conflicting with it. I was all for going with the DRM theory before, as mentioned by rr5678, but I'm not so convinced now.
I don't know how you could figure out what's causing the problem other than to re-install the apps manually, 1-by-1, and check after each install if you can still download. Obviously once you can't then you've found the problem.
That's not really a helpful suggestion though, if you've got a shed-load of apps to go through.
It's a bit of a clutch at straws, but I think having a thread here is the best thing, and to hope that someone with the same experience and a solution turns up.
Sorry to be so vague, but that's all I've got!
Hope you get it sorted.
Thanks, I've got over 60 apps (down from 100)! Soooo please don't make me reinstall them! I set aside days for ROM upgrades. Strangely, this thread shows how I solved the Tmobile My Account problem: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=880250 and the problems seem to be related.

Edit: Just out of curiosity, have you flashed a custom ROM since you got your phone, or is it still an official TMO one?
Okay. I too Googled, and all I could find were references to Windows running on PCs. With that in mind, I REALLY don't know if this is relevant, but I do know enough about the WinMo OS to suspect it may help. If you're happy with registry editing, have a look at post No.2 on this page...

I was 50/50 as to whether it would exist or not. Windows CE is VERY similar to the PC based Windows OS, so it was worth checking. As I know you've seen, there's nothing coming back from Google with regards to this error on WM.
I'm definitely done here now. As I said before, I hope you do get a solution though.

Galaxy Tab 7.7 Speed Tweaks ADW EX [ROOT]
Thanks, some nice stuff in there, even if a lot of it is really a ADW.EX tutorial.
Just fyi, you have a typo in the video description--you say ADX EX launcher.
About Customize Menu--you can reorder (or remove theoretically, but this was buggy for me) the items that appear on the top bar and in the drop-down when you push the menu button. I use this so that I can have Add in the menu, because I keep the top bar hidden and there is no other easy access to add/remove/move home screen pages.

I have to try this when I get home, the homescreen redraw drives me nuts, and its completely unecessary imo!
EDIT - OMGGGGGGGGG finally, the tablet has no effing homescreen redraw lag, thank you Jade Eyed Wolf!
Oh, oh. Just did this and now the tablet won't start!!!! I just get the initial "galaxy tablet 7.7" screen and then it stays black....
Any ideas? The only thing I changed was this
"Add this line to "/system/build.prop":
ro.HOME_APP_ADJ=0"
Help!!!!!
can someone post a copy of their build.prop (6810)? Would that help?
I can get into recovery, but rebooting form there doesn't do anything.....
Anyone with any bright ideas?
I can get into recovery, but I can't connect to the device via the pc to get at the files. well, that isn't quite true, I can see them if I use a pgr called DROIDEXPLORER, I can copy from the device to the PC but not back the other way. So I tried to edit the build.prop locally and push it back (using droidexplorer) but the one on the device just stays the same with the edit above in it...
I'm now considering flashing a new FW as the only way to get the tab going again.
Any help?
followed instructions and still couldn't write to sd card with ES File Explorer. Can't tell with homepage redraw... What's bad is that this killed my internet connection. After rebooting, the status bar shows me connected to either my home wifi or my H+ service provider but I can't access the internet nor my local network... Restarting the 7.7, deleting the relevant lines, restarting my router/cable modem (still have internet on my main comp and ipad) all didn't help.
I guess I have to reflash my 7.7.
OK, so after a sleepless night (the little one was on full song) I reflashed my Tab this morning and way hey! It is back in the land of the living.
Pheww.
Jade, I think the hack to keep the homescreen in memory might need to be revisited? I followed the instructions to the letter. After applying the hack the device just would not come to life. It wasn't a case of screen-off, device on either. I plugged it in to a PC and there was nothing. The only way I could get the PC to see it was to start it in recovery.
Maybe it is just a combination of things on my machine and I guess these things can just happen, but I think it might be worth checking?
I'm totally happy with flashing now though

It worked for me (Galaxy Tab 7.7 wifi) so you probably entered something wrong... Actually I realised that after entering "ro." the keyboard inserted a space after the dot, so it looked like this: ro. HOME_APP_ADJ=0 and it is like this: ro.HOME_APP_ADJ=0 see the difference?
I realised right away and fixed it. If I were you I would try it again....
It works for me alright, I don't know if at the end uses too much ram and slows down other things, if it does I'll just delete that line and that's it....

Nope, just tried it again, result dead tablet... My tablet definitely does not like this line in build.prop
So, I would advise caution with this line. Take a backup before trying it or get comfortable with reflashing.

Hi, everybody!
I tried to search for a similar thread before I created this one, but I couldn't find one. So, if there really is one (or several), you have my apologies.
I've been playing with the side buttons config using the app NookTouchTools. First, I set them as if they were volume buttons, and they worked nice. Then, when I changed my reader app, I tried setting one of the buttons back to the way it were, to see if it worked. When I rebooted, none of the buttons worked and I've been trying out new configs since then to make them work, but it's useless.
Please, someone help me (it's really frustrating)!
PD: if you need some info about the software, ask me so I can ask my cousin, who rooted my NST.
So you're not having luck changing them around with Nook Touch Tools anymore? Are yu rebooting after changing them in NTT?
Ask your cousin if he blocked OTA updates. Unlikely anything happened recently, but an update pushed by B&N can break your root access.

You could try uninstalling, then reinstalling. There are no error messages or anything useful being shown? Do all other root functions work properly?

I think I didn't change the default reader (not in purpose, at least), but I'm not really sure. When I use the B&N library to choose a book, it asks me which reader it is to use.
As for the other question, the buttons do not work at all. It is as if they have lost their config (in fact, in NookTouchTools no config appears).
P.D.: I'm going away on holiday again on Tuesday, so I will be long in answering again. Thanks for your help!
We have tryed wiping dalvik caché, fixing permissions, and reinstalling NookTouchTools. Any ideas?
I was having some other problems, probably concerning permissions, so I decided to re-root the device. The problem is, when I try to boot into ClockWorkMod, it doesn't load, but boots as usual, even though, in theory, CWM is successfully written in the microSD.
Any suggestions as to why that happens?
EDIT: The NTS was successfully re-rooted, after several hours working on it. The side buttons work correctly and everything is OK. Now, just to make sure this doesn't happen again, how do I block these OTA updates bobstro talked about?
Thanks for your help!

It is broken probably because BN made some patches to make it compatible with their apps, however, it might be just incompatibility with the "scrolling" thing (framework-res/framework. apk)

Hi, Can't seem to find an answer on this, when I go to setting in magazine ux, say as an example on the news widget, I click the three dots to customize the widget, it just spins and spins, no options to select which news I would like to add.

it might be good to keep a record of who is having the issue and if they rooted or not. Might be a connection. I am rooted with this issue..

well there goes that theory.
I remember that it was working for me- (hitting the 3 dots and having choices) when i first got it, but did not try it again until you posted this which was after i rooted and now it does not work for me..

Works for me
Same problem here. New out of the box, no root. I've tried factory reset, deleting all widgets and re-adding them, restarting flipboard, etc. This drives me nuts!
Ok so the changing language thing works and the options now display; in spanish, or whatever language I select other than english! It works in ever language but english! Why is this and any ideas? thanks

it seems that we're going to have to wait for a fix from samsung, hopefully they are aware of the issue
I've been talking to Flipboard support to see if there is anything they can do. I'll post if I find anything new. So far they have just told me to reset everything, etc.
Frustrating!
I also have the same problem straight out of the box. So I sent it back and this is the third device I have received with the same problem. I contacted Samsung and they said there is nothing they could do need to send it back for repair and it would take two weeks. I'm thinking it's a software issue maybe with flipboard app, I got a flipboard error at some point. Hope to see fixed with patch or update. Don't want to send a brand new tablet back for repair with a two week turnaround.
Also on another note when I called Samsung for an issue with the back just below the camera there was a hump they told me that the tablet I had purchase from Best Buy was not a valid SN and that the tablet had no warranty. After that I mad it a point to verify my SN with Samsung to make sure I was covered by the 1 year warranty.
Also change language to Spanish and it works but not in English
