Default [Q] How do I get .ActivityPicker to work?

Has anyone had any luck getting the android activity picker to work. Specifically when I go to add a shortcut in ADW launcher, it closes back to the home screen.

When trying the same thing using my G2 logcat mentions com.android.settings/.ActivityPicker

I'm assuming this is missing from the nook file system since they didnt intend on us putting any apps on it yet, but has anyone figured out how to get it working?

Here's what I do:

Download Desktop Visualizer, and install on the Nook: http://www.appbrain.com/app/desktop-...oid.app.dskvzr

Long press on launcher desktop, and add widget. Selected Desktop Visualizer widget in your desired size. Choose an icon from a picture or an existing application.

Then, hit 'Select Action', and then 'Other'. The list of options you're presented with after selecting other should be the same you'd see in the your shortcut list.

I did this and made two shortcuts/widgets to some gscript scripts I have.

Thanks! Now I finally have decent sized book shortcuts directly on my desktop, without having to switch back and forth between ADW and the default nook homescreen.
