Ok I rebooted and went to adobe.com/software/flash/about and it is showing the little blue lego so nope.
No go on my NC.

I gave it a go as well. It didn't work for me either.
I installed the apk. Rebooted. Even unchecked and rechecked the enable plugins option in the Nook's browser and still didn't get anywhere.
Dolphin HD didn't do anything either.
maybe sideload a .swf file.
i'd love to copy some .swf games into it for my kids
I believe that is Flash Lite, actually, not "real" Flash.
Nope.. doesnt work. installs but doent work on firefox/HD Browser/opera..

Does anyone know how I can get the apks for a couple apps that I cannot get in the market since I've updated to Froyo? I tried app brain and fast web installer, but for some reason, when I try it, it opens in the market. I've got the app installer, of course, but I don't know how to get the apks and my phone is not rooted (I'm afraid to bite the bullet).
I need the apk for
the Square app - squareup.com
Pure Calendar Widget - I have paid for it
Any help is greatly appreciated.
Thanks

airplane mode, then turn wifi back on. that should unlock the market without root. i think this still works.
Sadly, this doesn't work anymore

You have to edit the fingerprint in build.prop to pretend you are still on Eclair JH7, for which you have to be rooted. Bite the bullet man.
I'm so nervous about it. I rooted my old G1 without a problem, but this phone was a lot more expensive. Have you rooted yours? Was it pretty easy?
There is a One Click out there. Super easy and painless! I have done it several times without issue Root with reckless abandon!
Running Cog v2.2 beta 6 these work, maybe they will for you?

Easy as pie. On 2.1 it's one click. If you are on 2.2, it's slightly more involved, but if you were able to flash Froyo successfully, you can root it in your sleep.
appbrain
theres an apbrain app that allows you to push installs from market via webbrowser but Im still on eclair so......... but it works great you just enable it and browse the market from appbrain website,even from your phones browser pushed angry birds on today
This has been resolved in multiple forums
for everyone with this problem all you need is root explorer or something else that lets you view and edit the build.prop file. you need to replace the part that starts with ro.build.fingerprint to this:
ro.build.fingerprint=verizon_wwe/inc/inc/inc:2.2/FRF91/231334:user/release-keys
Good luck.
You're willing to install unofficial leaked firmwares (FroYo) but not root?
What?

That was so easy, thank you for your help.
So I've used root explorer and found the build.prop, but I can't do anything with it since it is a read only file (can't edit, rename, move, etc)...any ideas?
Did you actually look and tap the button on the top of root explorer as soon as you open it that says "Mount system as R/W" or something along those lines?
Long press on the file, that will open up a bunch of options.. Scroll down to open with text editor. Edit and save. The root explorer will automatically create a back up of the original

Anyone able to get zinio magazine reader run on the nook color?
Following thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=827566 here I got the apk and installed, but the zinio app isnt visible and the readerhub isnt working either.
the zinio app is the last thing I need to say woohoo and be satisfied with the root.
Thanks to all who have done so much with the nookcolor to root and share the information!
Thanks
I tried it as well. Got nothing.
Seems like a cool app but doesn't work yet.
I was just on the phone with Zinio today because I wanted to find out if they will be coming out with an Android app, and they told me they are working on one and should have it sometime in the first half of 2011.

works for me on Nookie Froyo, but dies on the stock firmware.
I tried installing on stock firmware with adb. I got the icon to show up but that's about it. I did try changing permissions but that did not help either. Works on my EVO. So something is missing the stock firmware.
Maybe it requires flash to work, it works fine for me on Froyo, booted of an SD card.

Anyone have this working with CM7 on the Nook Color? I loaded the three APK's but zinio just force closes as soon as it tries to connect. If the wifi is off the app seems to work. Tried fixing permissions and rebooting but it didn't help. Wondering if maybe it doesn't work with flash 10.2 perhaps...

Right you are, it was just worded differently than i expected.
For the rest of you guys, open Rom Manager, menu, manual flash override
Edit: I spoke to soon. That looked like it was going to fix it, but it is still not working
Well, after doing the above, I rebooted, cleared the cache for Rom Manager, and, from Titanium backup, wiped data for Rom Manager. Now it works as expected.

Well it seems that I can't remove the data from clockworkmod app. I accidentally didn't tell the app I already had a recovery installed and if I try to backup from app it trys to change my recovery to 2.5.1.4 how do I fix and get app to act like fresh install
I've autonootered the nook. The box that enables it is checked, but it still won't let me install any apps. Anyone ever have this?
Same here- have also tried to copy into the /system/app folder to install but it wont allow through astro. Appreciate some pointers.

Try unchecking then rechecking the box that allows installs from non-market sources.

And the step to do that is in the Rooting information on the Nookdevs Wiki. http://nookdevs.com/NookColor_Rooting#Enable_Market
So what if unchecking and rechecking non market apps does not fix the issue
I have rooted this device twice now and I have followed the directions to a T and I am still unable to download any apps from the Market. I can login to YouTube no problem...and Gmail. I am unable to connect to GTalk any suggestions or do I just give up on rooting my device.

I'm running on Dragon RC4 ROM and just uninstalled mine through titanium backup and then went to the beta.swype.com web site and registered and went through the whole process of getting the newest beta swype installer and then newest beta swype...success
Yeah, check forum. lowyat.net under the same nick.
Swyped from my Froyo-ed Captivate.
Thanks everyone, I removed swype with TiBu and the Beta then installed perfectly. I did do a reboot after uninstall and before new install.
I removed swype.apk and libswypecor thing via root explorer.
Then I went to the website and got my swype installer.
I opened the installer and logged in.
Clicked the full version.
It said downloading.
Then it went to the package installer.
I clicked install.
It said installing.
Then it says application not installed.
What's wrong with my phone
UPDATE: it somehow worked when i did it again. Now i have swype. But it still doesnt let me swype. I can only press on each letter for typing. If i swype the edges flash a blue light.... Help....

Blue moon, after you uninstall those files via root explorer you need to reboot...then run the swype installer.

it did not install completely. or did not install at all and you still have the previous apk. try to download uninstaller root app from the market it's much simpler to do, once uninstall install swype again.
