This version I have confirmed works fine - thanks for the link, I need my swiftkey asap can't take the stock keyboard anymore
If someone could post when Amazon updates the app store so it doesn't nag you to update all the time that would be great. You can't disable it or your amazon installed apps quit working already tried.

I have the same problem. Downloaded mine from the Amazon website. I contacted them and the guy said he will put in a "ticket" for the problem since he was unable to figure it out or fix with all the usual tactics. Says he will get back to me on Tuesday. Until them, I plan to use that link and go download and instal an older version cause I really need my Swiftkey and a few other apps to be on my One ASAP!
I did the same thing. The amazon app keeps prompting for a critical update.. Will it work or have the same bug as the "current" that displayed a blank screen.
I finally found it in the Play Store and it works. Find and dl an app called Amazon Free App Notifier (something like that) sign up and you have to dl the App Store from there. Then you can uninstall the Notifier app.

I submitted a ticket yesterday, and Amazon replied it was a known issue and they were working on a fix. Also, apparently the new 1.29 patch released in Europe solves the problem as well.
I just updated and the new app store is like the one on my Kindle fire hd.

I can't get any of the various versions to work. I have a feeling that, in my case, it's related to the Viper 1.03 ROM I installed today. The Amazon appstore was working fine yesterday.... As of now, it almost seems like I'm only seeing the middle of the app - there's no way for me to get to the settings, e.g. to get to "my apps." Frankly, I wish I had the hard button back for menu. Anyway, I suppose it's worth the tradeoff to have the Viper ROM, but still....

Did you try wolfpack kernel? It gives logo to menu button mod.

OMG, <facepalm> -- you made me realize that the problem is that I turned on the "press and hold for menu" back button behavior in viper, which then hides the menu icon. Duh! Well, the good news for me is that I hadn't noticed the whole logo2menu hack before, so I installed wolfpack anyway. Thanks!

Works MUCH better than the previous version. I'm getting no force closes or weird behavior anymore. The UI is also cleaned up quite a bit.

It just updates the original music app. If you want to get rid of it you can go into manage apps and uninstall the update just like all the other system apps.

I am getting tired of some of the quality apps not showing up in my Nook Market. I am using CM7.
eBay, Gowalla, Amazon, now CNN (and a few others) do not show up. I have to Bluetooth them over from my phone to get them installed (and even then it's a pain when they have an update).
Anyhow, will this ever be fixed? Can the dev's somehow fool the market into beleiving that the Nook meets all of the requirements so that all of the basic missing apps show up?
Just curious if there is ANY hope in the future on this....
I believe i see the problem. I went onto the web market, and looked at the permissions, and i think it all comes down to them requiring this:
"# Hardware controls:
take pictures and videos"
Somehow, you would have to make the nook tell the market that it can take pictures/video, which should then make it compatible. I don't know how easy this is though, so i will leave it to a dev..

There are 5 or 6 apps I use on my Droid (1) that I cannot locate in the market on my NC because of this camera permission. VERY FRUSTRATING! I'm sure the devs will create a workaround for this eventually (i hope!)...

Well, yeah it'd be nice if they could just disable the camera feature. Apps crash if you force 'em and they try to use the camera, so caveat emptor

I didnt try the CNN one yet (I tried it on my phone and it was ok, but nothing like the HC on the Xoom version) but I got Amazon on my nook with Cm7 without any problem, then loaded all my apps that I had from my phone.
I loaded it by going to Amazon.com and loggin in, then it loaded to my device pretty easy (maybe one more step, but easy).
Battery on Nightly 40 was not good, i left it at 64% last night and when got home from work it was 8%. Waiting for the recharge now and then will load #41 and see if anything is better. Sorry for the long Ramble on the amazon question.

The eBay, Amazon, CNN, and Gowalla app all download and work on a stock rooted nook with the newer market update. The eBay, Amazon, and Gowalla apps are all on the amazon market, have to tryed to download from there? I am without my personal computer for a few more weeks or else I would look into the problem for you, it should be a simple code change to get it to work on CM7.

Yep same experience here... Gameloft is the king of GARBAGE!
The one from the market from what i hear it doesn't work.
Whats odd is they dont even list the game being available for NS when you visit the website from your phone
The i9000 version works fine on NS i got from their website a few months ago never had any problems
I got it to work by opening the game, letting it force close, then holding down the home button and selecting it from "Recent."
Got Nova2 this morning for £1 and was going to pick up this too but it disappears when you select the nexus S as your phone, so they know it's not compatible
Same problem here... it may be the ROM we're running... what ROM are you all running? latest MIUI here...
I got the galaxy s version from gameloft.com and it works great for me

As posted in the other thread.
I just checked my market and it has mysteriously updated as well.
All I did to update my apps was click the far left capacitive button, select "My Apps" and update nearly as usual. The cool thing was that it actually updated without having to cancel and re-initiate the update download again.
The new market is fine by me!!
While reading this thread my market just sent me a push notification that updates are available. Something the old market never did. Yay!

AOIP meets Growl = The Best of Both ROMs
This is a port of Jb 4.3.1 Growl v5 (DarkLiquid/Smooth/Gaming/Battery) Samsung Galaxy W i8150 by @ipromeh, I am using @camcory’s Team Insomnia AOIP 2.0 (4.3) alpha for Galaxy Exhibit SGH-T679 as base. I didn’t make too many changes to the ROMs as i like to give credits to the original Developers, they put so much time and efforts to gives this, Thank you
This ROM has the Camera and Gallery working with no freezes
Everything else works from the original ROMs
Installation:
Please Backup your ROM using either TWRP or CWM (i use both)
Wipe Data, Cache…etc 3rd time is always a charm
Install Growl_AOIP_4.3.1.zip (If you have a better name please let me know)
Install Google Apps for JB 4.3
Reboot and give the phone few minutes to boot
Enjoy

Nandroided my setup and checking this out for the hell of it. I'll report back when I get an idea of how this performs. Love the boot animation!
Far as a name change, how about "GNAoIP" (keep the "O" lowercase and "gnaw" on AOIP instead of "growl" which is harder to incorporate into one name with AOIP). Noticed the notification drawer FC fix isn't included, so anybody using this ROM will need it: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=46284485&postcount=1327

Well I have to say this is pretty stable and fairly fast. Unfortunately some minor annoyances are too much for me, and the sad thing is it has nothing to do with the ROM but the android version I'm sure. Latest Viper works but doesn't play well with 4.3 IMO. You can get it to work with your music players but you can't get it to work with system sounds at all. So if this app is controlling sound you won't hear any notifications/ringtones unless you turn the app off. Tried a million things but nothing changes that situation. The other problem is that ad blockers like the one @BSDgeek_Jake comes out with don't work, although maybe Crossbreeder could do the trick but it is really for 4.2. The developer has been working on a 4.3 update for 3 months. This is what is so frustrating when new android OS are released, it takes FOREVER for everything else to catch up.
Anyway nice work porting this and anybody who doesn't need some of the things I need would be pretty happy using this ROM.

For me everything works great, looks like a great and buttery ROM, however most of the market apps wouldn't download for me including Facebook, what's app, Google search update just to name the few. What happens is download would start for a spilt second you would see the download animation in status bar and then stops right away. Play store would show that's it trying to download forever with no result. Please help.

I had trouble with Play initially, same problem you all describe. I just hit stop on the downloads while in progress, then started them again. They downloaded fine after that. Weird but simple solution. BTW a fix for V4 may be incorporating it into the ROM. If you decide to just ask @zhuhang first.
Tried stopping and starting but no downloading of apps from playstore
