    Thread Downloading APKs

    I'm frustrated with Google Market because a decent handful of apps that I want to download show incompatible with my device. But I can't seem to find anywhere to download the apks now either to side load them. I used to use an apk downloader extension with Chrome but that no longer works and I...

    Post Location services for nook hd+

    I do. I'm rooted, running Google Play, Gmail, YouTube and Movies & TV. Maps installs fine and will function to look up a location or map directions but when I tap the icon to find my current location I get a small white box on the screen but I can't read it because it must be in white font.

    Post Location services for nook hd+

    I never get any pop up dialog box when I enable mock locations. I've updated my settings to network and tried uninstalling/reinstalling Maps before updating the mock locations but nothing happens when I turn it on and Maps isn't finding me. Any ideas?

    Post (OUTDATED) Nook HD+ root, modified 2/15/13 RIP

    Thanks, I saw that today and went ahead and ran it. Truthfully it doesn't look like anything has changed since the db value was already set to manual but fingers crossed that this will stop any further updates. As it stands, though, I'm running on 2.0.4 just fine right now...

    In my frustration I wiped the device w/the 8 boot method and started from scratch. I realized that I had forgotten to do the step the first time to block OTA updates so after I got everything back up and running I downloaded SQLite Editor and followed your instructions to change the...

    Thank you @skyhawk21!! I installed your apks right over the ones that I used earlier in someone's instructions. I DIDN'T reset anything and it worked like a charm! I've got Google Movies, YouTube and Gmail all synced and working now. Thanks so much!

    Thanks! Thanks so much for your work on this! I can access the Google Play Store along with the Amazon App Store now and have loaded up my new Nook with my favorite apps.

    Post [Q] Rooted now apps fc

    I rooted yesterday and had the same issue with my bible app, eBay, flixter and others I had sideloaded previously. I still had the apks on my SD card so I uninstalled/reinstalled and in most cases it resolved the fc issue.

    Post [Q] Android market question

    Is there a work-around for apps that the Market doesn't think are compatible? Looking for a few common apps like Flixster and Facebook and the Market says This item not compatible with your device. But I can pull down the apk from another site and it works fine.

    Thanks for the replies everyone...I'll be rooting shortly. On the upside, now I'll be able to use my Thumb Keyboard app! In answer to the question above..I don't care for the Nook app at all.

    Sorry if this has been answered elsewhere...I've searched but couldn't find the answer. I'm using an un-rooted NT and have sideloaded many apps.
