[NST/NSTG][ROM] 1337 ROM [Apr. 9]

[nmyshkin]

I am on 1.2.2 now is it possible for me to downgrade to 1.2.1 ? I really need a rom like this but i don't know how to do it :/

A complete factory reset (not just deregister) will take you back to the firmware version that came with the device out of the box. If it's earlier than 1.2.1, you can upgrade.

However, I doubt you can get the 1337 ROM to work properly for you. Start reading here.

I thought this was a new rom because of my excitement i couldn't noticed that op was date back 2014. Sorry about that. I looked at the message you mentioned and some others. So gapps, youtube and some other apps not working. All i need is to have an android rom that is working, yalp store and cool reader.

I read this message of yours and i think the best way for me is this. If i am not mistaken. Can i ask you a couple of questions about this ?

1- How can i know if my nook is a US device or not ?
2- Can i use nookmanager with 1.2.2 ?

If you have updated to 1.2.2 then your device has US firmware. You can use the updated NookManager to root it: https://xdaforums.com/nook-touch/development/nst-g-updating-nookmanager-t3873048

There are currently no versions of the Yalp Store (or its fork) that work on the NST.

Hey, what happened to the 1337 downloads section? All that I see attached now are pictures.

Yes, I think development downloads went away with the forum upgrade. I've noticed quite a few attachment apks missing too.

In any case, these fellows are long gone so unless another devotee of this ROM sees your post and has the original files, you are SOL.

That said, you would not get far with the installation and it would be stuck in FW 1.2.1 forever. For some suggestions on how to get at least the look of the ROM, see my earlier post here: https://xdaforums.com/t/nst-nstg-rom-1337-rom-apr-9.2931567/post-82222759

i can't see 1337 Rom in your post.
and i follow to here then flash my nook2 with Nook manager.img to root and disable the B&N app.
and now, i want to setup some .apk to read .mobi, .Prc, some manga .apk ..... But my Nook say : "can not extract apk not from Market"
How to fix ?
However i see a team can run CM11 in NOOK with Android 4.4, that name FastMode & USB Sound ROM. Do you think ?

This thread is for the Nook Simple Touch. Is that what you have?

However i see a team can run CM11 in NOOK with Android 4.4,

Are you sure that they don't mean the Glows?

Can not extract apk not from Market

You need to go to Settings > Application Settings > Unknown Sources (Allow install of non-market applications)

You can also install over ADB which ignores that setting:

C:\>adb install myapp.apk

Or on later Android you could use the setting command.

Or you can download my setvalues utility.

C:\>adb push setvalues /data/local/tmp
C:\>adb shell
# cd /data/local/tmp
# chmod 755 setvalues
# echo install_non_market_apps 1 >nm
# ./setvalues nm

I have finally managed to track down copies of the 1337 ROM zips.

Caveat emptor: If you decide to play around with these files first make a complete backup of your device. Then read the thread carefully. Be aware that this ROM is based on FW 1.2.1 and that means you will not be able to register it and may have trouble connecting to the internet. It is possible to remove all the B&N stuff with NookManager and thus solve the power drain issue caused by skipping OOBE (and the WiFi connection issue), but that means you will have to install your own reader app, dictionary, launcher, etc.

You've been warned.

Well....unfortunately that is the last correct URL I know. XDA either changed or deleted the whole shebang.

I'll ask around.

Alright, I hope there's still some good news to come or if someone has backups of these packages. Still, thank you for caring about Nook2 in 2023.

Hi folks, just confirming that the DevDB legacy backup is now gone following our recent server and domain migration. Unfortunately, it no longer made sense for us to keep the recurring cost given it was esentially unused, and only here for legacy purposes.

So there it went...into oblivion. I don't think I kept copies because I had no interest in the project, but I'll check later today when my PC is booted up.

Edit: sorry, I do not have local copies. Probably someone does, but it's not me.

but still, thank you . I'll search online again, and hopefully, someone else still has a backup.
