adb frustration

[openallnight]

Hi All,
I have been trying to get ADB working on my windows xp PC for my HD+. I purchased this from staples and it is at 2.0.4. I followed 2 separate threads here in addition to info on nookdevs from BN. I am able to see my nook in ADB but as soon as I try to run the allinoneroot and the nook reboots its gone. no more devices. Even if I just disconnect the nook and reconnect to my PC i see same behavior. basically it looks like my PC is not able to retain the ADB setup after the nook reconnects.

Any pointers? I have another windows 7 PC which I am planning to try next but i have no clue why this isnt working? should i be deleting some existing installation from my PC? I am new to Nook HD+ but not really new to android or ADB. I already have a Nook color with CM7 running on it and have been upgrading etc for past 1.5 years.

this has been my most frustrating experience with ADB so far. Please help.. I am so close to taking this back to the store.

thanks!

Can you open up the shell/batch file and execute the commands one by one to see where exactly it's messing up?

I had the same problem. It loses the ADB after the first boot. I had to leave the cord plugged in and the command window open and go to device manager. I went to USB controllers and uninstalled the USB composite device. Another device popped up in other and I updated the driver to the nook drivers again. Then the command prompt took off to the next boot and same thing happened. Just went through that every time until finished.

thanks!. "I think" the root is done. I reconnected after each step and it said installation complete. But i dont see any apps at all. how do I access Google Play for the next update step per your post? thanks for guiding me through this.

If I go in settings->applications I see Superuser,Talk etc.
thanks!

Was able to open google play using the browser. Installed ADW Launcher and it looks good. a lot of apps come up as not compatible in play though. maybe dpi setting is incorrect?

There are many things that make certain apps incompatible. It have tried several things including dpi, modifying build.prop (which I recommend against unless you want to reset), and nothing seems to help. I just think the HD+ is not on its list so most things show incompatible. The only solution is to use other devices to download and sideload. There are web stores that let you use your browser to download but not all apps are available. Like 1mobile.com.

I've simply copied many of these apps from my phone to my PC then sideloaded. They work fine. It just seems to be that they aren't teed up for this sort of Bastroid 4.2.1 that B&N has deployed is my guess. Example, free angry birds works fine this way. Once loaded, you can backup with Titanium backup and reload if needed.
