I make some test to install the google calendar on my Nook Touch.
First follow the instruction to install the Market.
Then download the 2 apk files on this post
Then install the 2 files on your Nook Touch with that command:
Code:
adb shell mount -o rw,remount -t ext2 /dev/block/mmcblk0p5 /system
adb push Calendar.apk /system/app
adb push CalendarProvider.apk /system/app
adb shell
chmod 775 /system/app/Calendar.apk
chmod 775 /system/app/CalendarProvider.apk
exit
It works for me but there is some problems:
1) a big picture of the SD-card on top of the screen
2) some text are not visible on settings
3) sync works from google server to nook
Enjoy
Some trouble, anyone a idea how to fix?
I've never gotten the Calendar app to work effectively. Instead, I've opted to use a third-party calendar application (i.e., Jorte). Much better and has loads of options; also works/looks flawless on the N2E.
You might want to try Synker if you want manual sync ability with the Google calendar cloud app as well.
jorte
I don't know why but I could install Jorte but it does not run. Screen just blinks and that's all. Anybody have some idea? Thanks.
Truth is I could not run any google application.
I have same experience with Jorte. It installs but only blinks the screen when I launch it. I haven't found any calendar app that works with rooted Nook Touch and syncs with Google Calendar web app. My Nook Touch is running software version 1.1.0 which was installed in the factory on the new device purchased on Black Friday 11/25/11. Maybe the people who report that Jorte works for them have an earlier version of the operating system installed. Does anyone have a calendar app installed on version 1.1.0 which syncs with Google Calendar? I can use Calendar online through Opera, but I'd like an offline app that syncs, too.

I bought Nook Touch, immediately upgraded to 1.1 and use SalsichaNooter. I was not able to use any calendar apps. So I installed both files from this thread and I am using Calendar Pad and it's great. I also tested Jorte, but it just closes.
I've been using Simple Calendar Widget on both my android phone as well as the NST and I think it works just great for both. You have to adjust the settings a bit to get it just right, but in the end I found it best for the e-ink display.
I've also been using Minimalist Text Widgets as well, but I haven't figured out exactly how to configure them. Works great on my phone though...
A. market stops working
When I install calendar.apk, calendarProvider.apk my android market stops working - when I run it, display just blinks but nothing happens. After deleting both files from system/app market app works again normally.
Howdy,
Does anybody know how do I remove a system app on Samsung ATIV S?
I have installed the following system apps (one that appear in Settings|System).
Samsung apps:
Contacts import
Additional call settings
Advanced text messages
Nokia apps (managed to install them via SysApps Pusher; some one them work, some don't):
Audio
Glance
Storage check
It is possible to remove these components without re-flashing the phone?

Yes, go to date & time, set the date 100 years in the future, try to open one of the system apps you want to delete, a prompt will open that you need to either buy or delete the app (Windows Phone store DRM). Click delete and voila, the app is gone. Set the date back to the correct date after you're done. Be careful with this.

Fantastic. Worked like a charm, thanks pal!
1. Went to Settings|date+time
2. Toggled Set automatically off and set the date to 100+1 years forward.
3. Switched to Settings|System and tapped system apps like Beats Audio from HTC one by one
For each of the tapped apps I've got a message like:
Problem with app
There's a problem with <TappedAppName>. You can first try to buy the app, but if that doesn't work, you'll need to uninstall the app and then install it again.
uninstall buy

4. Clicked uninstall for each one, and voila! they were removed without me needing to restart the phone.
5. Moved back to Settings|date+time and changed the year back to 2013.
Many thanks!
The only issue is that after that I've got a message when I started Mail app that there's been an error syncing my mail, whoa, the last time it synced was 100 years in the future, Restarting the phone seems to have solved the problem.
P.S.: Too bad Glance doesn't work with Samsung. I live the feature a lot, it's available on my wife's Nokia 620.
Glad it worked, It's indeed a shame Glance doesn't work on the Ativ S, Nokia uses special drivers for this. The only way we could have this feature if someone made a third party app that could do this or that someone manages to interop-unlock the Nokia Lumia series so we could copy these drivers to our Ativ S, but even then it's not a guarantee it will work.
Hi everyone.
I'm at a bit of a loss here. I've had 2 issues with Google apps on this phone. One is regarding Calendar which was force closing as soon as I tried to edit an event. Others on here had the problem and advised a factory reset which I wanted to avoid.
Yesterday however, Google Drive seemed to stop seeing Sheets, Docs etc as when you try to create a new document, those options don't appear. This also means I can't use Drive to edit any document however if I open Docs or Sheets directly I can access the same files and edit them.
I use Drive a lot so I bit the bullet and did a factory reset this morning.
Everything was okay and both apps seemed fine again, however for no apparent reason (I rebooted just now), Drive is broken again.
Calendar is still fixed but I have no idea what's going on. It's like Drive can't see that Docs and Sheets are installed.
Has anyone experienced this or got any ideas?
Aaaaand Google Calendar is broken again. I changed the colour of each if my calendars and unselected my Hotmail calendar. Force closes now every time I try to open an event to edit.
Just checked my Google Drive and it's allowing opening of Sheets files, also never had the Calendar issue, I have multiple shared calendars in action with my account as well.
no problems with either - if you have an o365 account you could install excel and onedrive to see if any issues
The problem isn't that I can't open the files though as if I open the apps Docs or Sheets, they'll open and edit fine. When in the Drive app though, if you try to create a new item, I only get options for an upload, photo or new folder and no sheet. Likewise when clicking on a text document, it opens in the built in Drive viewer but not the Docs editor.
It's like Drive isn't seeing that the other apps are installed.
Very odd. Not sure if it's related to the calendar issues other had. I've tried all sorts of combinations of changing permissions and battery saving etc but to no avail.
So I figured it out and it was my own fault - I was in the Google Play Services beta.... Latest update broke maps showing in other apps (that's what helped me work it out as it gave an error about play services updating) as well as giving my calendar and drive issues.
Posting in case others come across this issue!
That's a definite bummer. I have not yet experienced that. I certainly hope I won't.
One of the first things I did when I got my P20 Pro last Saturday, April 28 was to STOP all auto-updates, including the auto-update of apps.
What I have in mind, if was in the same situation, would be to factory reset the unit. Then deactivate the auto-update feature. I'm not sure if it'll work with others, though.
Have you tried getting in touch with Huawei yet?

So the effect I am getting is when I open the sheet from google drive it shows a previewed sheet, but not actually a valid file you can edit (i.e. it's still using drive not sheets) - you can choose 'open with Sheets' and then it does open in sheets. You can also open the web browser version and it prompts you to 'Use App' with a button. I can't get it to open into Sheets without an additional tap - it definitely did before...
If you look at the recent reviews, it's not just P20 pro which has issues with maps

Something was not right, for me, when scrolling in browsers and play store. It was laggy as hell. In other apps like facebook, tidal, instagram, youtube it was fluid and fast. But not on browsers. Tried all, chrome, opera, firefox, bromite, but all was stuttering like crazy. Play store also. I tought there are few rougue apps, twilight theme, fluid nav gestures and smart files manager, but I was so wrong. I also blamed the LG UI skin, but again was so wrong! So how did I resolved?
Guide - possible for any LG out there:
1. Remove SIM
2. Factory reset your phone in the way that doesn't require Internet to go through activating the phone. If you cant do this, it will fail. You should NOT put the email account. (I did reset from phone settings, not by keys. Also remove phone security such as pin, password, face id etc for this to work - just select unlocking the phone by sliding up)
3. DO NOT connect to internet, do not insert SIM.
4. Settings - apps - show system apps also.
5. Disable, remove permissions, set modify system setting to NO and draw over other apps to NO for all korean bloatware (screenshots attached) and for Google play services, google play store, google, and google service framework.
You must do this for each app. Example in screenshots.
6. Connect to wifi. Do not put your email in play store or gmail. Not yet.
7. As soon as connected slide down the notifications pannel. A pop up will apear after few seconds with Google trying to update some libraryes!!! Hit CANCEL!!!
8. Restart and connect with your email on Play Store. Disable asap app updates.
9. Your contacts won't sync now. Don't worry, its normal, you just removed some permissions.
10. Update and install all your apps from play store.
11. Re-enable that 4 google apps, give permissions to all for contacts, phone, wifi etc, enable also draw over other apps and modify system settings for these apps.
12. Insert SIM.
Enjoy! Hope it works for you all, V40, 30, G8, G7 etc
Weird, but its like I have stock vanilla now. Rocket!
It seems that with every restart this rogue korean app pop up asking for access, even though i have disabled and removed all of its permissions. Attached screenshot.

im gonna try this method of yours. thanks for sharing. i can't wait my v50 to be delivered today. i'll update guys if this trick will work
Hi,
unfortunately I had to change my password for my Google account for various reasons. Since this account was previously set up with the Googlefier on the smartphone, it can no longer be used or the new password can not be entered on it, it is not accepted. So i deleted the account on my phone because of the various error messges from all the apps which are using this account.
I still have a second Google account, which is also already available on the smartphone and which also still works. Nevertheless, I would like to use the other account also, because it is my main account. But when I try to add the main account as a new account on the smartphone, that doesn't work either ("An error occurred, we could not create the account").
Hence my question: googlefier is still installed. Can I use it to subsequently create the second account without having to reset the firmware on a 10.x version? Running 11.0.0.168 currently....
As a workaround i'm using Dual Space already, in which i can access my main google account, but thats not the "real thing"...
thx, jennix
Yes, you can, here is a very simply away:
- Uninstall Google Play Service.
- Install Micro G, then add your new account.
- Uninstall Micro G.
- Install Google Play Service again.
thx, but does uninstalling and reinstalling Google Play Service work without downgrading the firmware?

Yes, you can do it on Settings -> Apps -> Apps. (Just only remove 1 app: Google Play Service)
You don't need to downgrade or restart your phone.
Can anybody confirm if it is working.
No, it doesn't seem to work like i need it. But first, something reassuring: The smartphone will still run afterwards, so nothing will break.
But the real purpose, to bring my main account back to the device, didn't work. I have made several attempts. I uninstalled Google Play Services, installed Micro G, added both accounts (both were then visible under Vanced G account), then uninstalled Micro G, installed Google Play Services, and all that happened was that only my secondary account was available again. I couldn't log in with the main account, e.g. in Play Store or in maps, there were always error messages like "we are having problems with server communication" etc.
In another attempt, I created only the main account in Micro G, and still afterwards only the secondary account was operational in Google Apps.
I did this several times, sometimes also with restarting the phone between the steps, but it's still the case: my secondary account is working, the main account is still not there.
OK, i can live with this, but...

Because you mentioned you changed password for 1st account, so I think that you have to remove it first by going to:
- Settings -> Users and Accounts -> Google.
- Access your 1st account here, then click on the recycle bin icon to remove it.
Then you can do those steps again (Remove Play Server, Install Micro G, add account again, remove Micro G, install Play Service).

Hey @Shymmy, thank you very much. Even if it was a bit hard to follow the video because i'm not able to understand the spanish language i could follow the steps and finally: It works! Even with EMUI 11.x while in the video it's still at 10.x. So now i have again two working google accounts at this phone! Thanks again!
Does Google play Works?
Yes.
But depend on what method do you use for having GMS. I have an old one, all works; with Googlefier I think you can have notification or Google Play (freeze framework or not).
