[N2E][1.0][1.0.1] TouchNooter 1.6.24

[GabrialDestruir]

If you're pre-1.1 rooted this SHOULD work:

• Run a Factory Restore to wipe /system only - 8 failed boots, or nookRestore image
• Run the 1.1 update as is from B&N
• Open TouchNooter and remove framework.jar from the TouchNooter disk
• Run TouchNooter without 1.0.1 TouchNooter
• Go through all steps for Market/Gmail/Youtube
• You SHOULD be rooted with working market now

This is a theoretical method. The idea being that once Android ID is populated in 1.0.1 it should persist through 1.1 as long as /data is untouched. This would allow market to work in 1.1 without a new framework.jar

However we still need a modded framework.jar so that it can be used in an updated version of TouchNooter.

Gabrial, thanks. I get it all except step 1- how do you factory reset to only wipe system?

Cymoze,

When you turn on your nook, keep both lower side buttons pressed. When screen flickers, it will go through the wipeout routine (press physical n button twice), and you are done.
Usually they tell you to do it when the screen flickers, but if you miss it you have to start again.

No, "Factory Reset" will reset /data and it's not what you want!

What you want is "Factory Restore", which can be triggered with 8 interrupted boots or simply by booting the nookRestore image.

I am at work now. When I get back to hotel i'll try it.

Right the 8 failed boots one will wipe /system which is the one I meant.

The one already in TouchNooter should work fine, but if you want to be safe use one of the 1.1 uRamdisk versions

Hi!
Tried this method (however didn't quite understand this step:
[*]Run TouchNooter without 1.0.1 TouchNooter
Restored, updated, removed framework.jar, replaced uRamdisk. rooted fine, rebooted, but market says server error. My GAccount is connected, gmail/youtube works, but market doesn't.
before the factory restore i've already updated to 1.1.0, could that be the problem?
Should i fall back to 1.0.1_rooted and start over?
Thanks

[*]Open TouchNooter and remove framework.jar from the TouchNooter disk.

Any suggestion on which utility to use to open the .img file? Or better, can anyone post the framework.jar-removed Touchnooter image?

Gratefully, cymoze

Remove from the sdcard after flash the image.

Hi,
I patched the framework.jar, but had no time to test it. Hope it works.

/edit: Tried it, and it works for me.

tried, doesn't work
now i'll revert to the pre-root 1.0.1 backup i have and try again.
now the serial number is 000000...00 :/

Can someone clarify what "patching framework.jar" will get us? I've been trying to do much of what the nooter script/files do manually and have superuser working properly along with nookcolortools and some other apk's. Sideloading seems to be okay too, along with adb over wireless.

The issue i am having is with the market. The apk included in the nooter package doesn't work - it starts and says that it cannot connect, and i tried another vending.apk that was included or linked in the thread and it's a similar problem.

edit: k so now youtube and gmail both don't work, so i think there's something more wrong. doh.

I get "A server error has occurred. Retry, or cancel and return to the previous secreen." when i try to launch market.

I think what's going on is that BN has a fair amount of authentication services they need on the device, to be sure that you're properly accessing your account and syncing your reading position, etc.

Google has a lot of auth services they need, too, to lock down access to gmail and the credit cards tied to your account.

Although in the Nook app for Android, BN kept all of its ducks in a row, on the NC and NT BN decided to set its auth services up as the dominant auth services, and getting the Market and gmail to play nicely in parallel is challenging.

Mind you, I'm not a dev, just a semi-informed observer who's seen a little of the discussion and tried to figure out why the Nook for Android app will no longer install on the NC.

 

[nickveldrin]

K I went through the steps again, and it looks like it's after doing youtube where it does not want to go past. I am able to authenticate to my account on youtube, but when opening gmail and trying to sync, it just closes.

 

[roustabout]

Sounds a lot like the early attempts at getting manual nooter running on the NC without doing a complete device wipe - if you only formatted /system the root kinda worked adn the market didn't at all.

For me, I'm happy with where I am on the Touch, because there are only about 5 applications I want to add: adb wireless, fbreader + fbsync, Newsrob and Tasker. I'm sure there are others also, but those are the biggies for me, plus a launcher.

So the sideload process works fine for those apps as need it (and most are actually still installed, since I didn't wipe /data.)

 

[mali100]

Just tried, and it works for me. I can install apps from the market without problems (I got the nook today and updated immediatly, so I'm sure there is no device id from a previous patched framework).

On your normal android device, you'll have something called an Android ID, this ID I think is connected to your Google account and allows you to access your services such as Gmail, and Market. In your normal phone, and I may have this wrong, it responds to the servers that it's a phone and therefore can be assigned an Android ID. On your normal unhacked framework.jar within the Nook Simple Touch, this doesn't exist, so Android ID doesn't properly get generated.

Without this Android ID, Gapps will not work, you won't be able to check Gmail, you won't be able to use market, etc. This framework.jar is only required if you want Gapps working. If you don't care about Gapps then you don't need it.

 

[GabrialDestruir]

Okay, got a new version of TouchNooter put together, I will be trying it and seeing how it works.
