No need to reset...Just uninstall them
adb shell ls /data/app ---- to get the full name of the apk
adb shell rm -r /data/app/APPNAME
Example for K-9 Mail from Market (I installed this, just an example)
adb shell rm -r /data/app/com.fsck.k9.apk
Then reboot, works great!

Too remove non working apps you can either use adb and delete the apk file, or install a file manager like Astro. It has an application manager than can remove apps. If you wipe the device you lose all the apps you've installed working or not, plus any thing you've stored on the internal memory, and you'll have to reroot.

google voice

same here... google voice freezes when trying to skip voicemail setup.

Firefox mobile (fennec). IMHO a big improvement over the stock browser (pinch to zoom etc)

I'll try this... is this functionally equivalent to "rm /mnt/app/<apk> -rf" do the same thing? I have been installing using the scp method.
Will install adb and android kit tonight.
Also, has anyone tried to reinstall an apk after doing the rm uninstall? Might that be why some of my apps that worked are now broken?
Cheers,
Rich

3 more for the working pile
Evernote
DiskUsage
Google Sky Map (partial usage, can't access the menu so you can only mess with the onscreen options)
And one maybe working. I've got Cyanogen on my phone, so I copied the superuser.apk off and was able to install it on the nook. It will start with no errors, but so far nothing has asked me for su access so I don't know if it's actually doing anything.
Also, how are you guys getting the apks to install? I haven't had much luck finding some of them online, so I've been using my phone. Right now this is my process:
1. Install app from market on phone.
2. Backup app using Astro.
3. Upload backup to Dropbox
4. Download from Dropbox on nook

It froze at the end of setup, but after a re-start it's syncing and appears to work for the most part. I can't get it to play voice-mails though.

Fruit Ninja works, you just have to hit back when Feint tries to load. Although it only worked after changing the sqlite3 database to allow unknown sources installs

Regarding the Dolphin browser, does it work with the latest version?

List of *Non-working* Sideloaded Apps

Let this be the list of software that needs some loving...
General Issues -- We need the statusbar to stay on screen at all times so that we have access to the menu and back buttons, or make the nook button a toggle for the status bar!!
Not Working:
Skype
Reckless Racing
NFS Shift
New Room
ebuddy
I have some apps that stopped working... (ASTRO, Dolphin HD, YouTube, ADW Launcher) and want to wipe and start over. Is there a way to do a wipe back to factory? Will it erase sideloaded books etc?
Cheers,
Rich
I have tried the following that haven't worked:
Skype (loads but you cant do anything once in the app)
Reckless Racing (Loads to title screen and crashes)
NFS Shift (One version crashes at title scene, other loads but with no textures)
NewRoom (Loads, but the button to add new sites doesn't work)
I think this thread will be better and much shorter than the "Working Apps" thread because MOST apps seem to work fine.
Anyway.
eBuddy doesn't even install for some reason.
Citrix Receiver connects and shows the hosted applications, but does not allow you to access any of them. Multiple versions were tried, including the latest 2.0.
Kayak
TripIt
OpenTable
XDA App
Lets Golf
UnblockMe Free

Not sure why they wouldn't see your SD card. I installed both of those with no problems.
Slingplayer - older version does not work but the current version from the market works fine. The lack of menu keys makes it a bit of a pain but if plays fine.
Roadsync gets in a loop for registration and wont even launch the program (current version from the market)
Touchdown (current version from Market) runs but will not sync with my exchange server 2003.
I can't get ADWLauncher to run. LauncherPro works fine. Also, ASTRO and K9 won't start. Anyone having problems with these apps? I had them running last night, but started experimenting and somehow they got broken. Is there a log file that I can check?
Cheers,
Rich
Sketch Online won't work for me. Is appears to start but then just closes with no error.
Raging Thunder 2 fail to download game data.
Chromemarks
3d pool
Both of these crash

Did you get these working fullscreen? Did you buy them from the gameloft store?
Sirius XM - won't move past checking channels
Beejive - times out
Grave Defense - screen issues
ZombieDefense - screen issues
wordfeud - ???
Devilry Huntress - never opens
Tiki Towers - screen issue
Beyond those not working I have put about 30 apps on works like a charm and loving it!
IMBD app doesn't open
Chase Bank won't install
Twitter won't install
I can get Flash Player 10.1 to install (says it installs successfully), but I cant get the B&N Browser or Dolphin HD browser to recognize that its there (tells me I need to install flash)

Same here...
I think this is hilarious. Nook Software will not run on the nook.
I can't get Grooveshark to run either... It launches, but as soon as you enter login information it crashes and doesn't open anymore.

[Q] some apps not to install

Hello,
just a beginner with Android and a happy owner of an archos 101 with froyo running, I discovered some strange behavior of the system. For the very first time I installed PocketCloud (but never used it) and a lot of other apps. I had also the patch for accces to the goole market applied. But I did not root the archos (don´t know how...)
Few days later the archos crashed and I had to reinstall the system (from the systemmenu).
With the app "app 2 SD" I moved some apps to SD.
Now some apps I could not not install or update, e.g. dolphin HD, world newspaper, MyPiano and PocketCloud.
Searching some forums I tried not to move some apps to SD (so redo) - that worked for MyPiano: I could update. Also for Dolphin HD.
But I cannot install PocketCloud . Now I am looking for a solution, because I think it is a very usefull app and convenient to access my multimedia PC via tablet in my local network.
Any suggestion what I should try?
Check this post (I don't want to take credit for Lolo's typing). It is how to do the "Market Fix". This is a pretty standard fix for Android.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=10684760&postcount=779
I use pocketcloud on a regular basis. It works fine, BUT it does not work with Zeam running....
Google Sky Maps is one that does not work for me.
I've tried more than once installing/uninstalling and still, nothing.
Yeah I'm trying to get the Polaroid Bluetooth POGO printer apk to work but its a no go an forget about sideloading it fails and when I download it from the market I get Installation error -17 wtf is error -17 I have no idea and apparently neither does google

G-Harmony-Gingerbread to TNT-Lite

Will soon give a last try to the ROM available on this site.
Currently running G-Harmony-Gingerbread
This one doesnt work for me:
- no video playback. Keep getting the "cant play this video" error
- Gallery FC when browsing picture folder with 100+ photos
- Bluetooth FC shortly after reboot
- when puting USB in mass storage, it makes the Gtab freeze. Need to reboot after that
I liked almost eveything about this ROM, except for the above mentioned.
Came form calkulin's ROM that had similar problems.
Will now try TNT-Lite 4.4 from roebeet.
My last try. If this doesnt work, the Gtab is going back to tigerdirect.ca
I would have prefer to keep it, but this device just cant be used for what it was meant to. (flashing ROM is a means, not a hobby, for me)
What do you use it for? I have been on TNT 3.1.4 since Jan and no big issues. Only problems i had are: gallery not showing any pics (i am using quickpic now from android market) and camera upside down.
I use it for multimedia:
- Video
- Music
- Photos (must have centralized access to picture on sdcard and picasa)
- Skifta app (DLNA controler/player)
and for general internet:
- Web browsing
- Picasa
- Facebook
- messenging
Nothing really exotic.
I am on Harmony gingerbread too... installed last night. Installed just to see and feel gingerbread... I am happy with it.
I too use it my GTab for games, mail browsing, music and youtube... I am GOOD!!!
Thanks "tjohnsonjr"
OMG!! I am unable to configure and check my gmail account using GMail App after upgrading to Harmony gingerbread (i also installed GAPP)? Am i missing something?
Anyhow i configured my Gmail account in "Email" app. But still want to know if i can configure my account in "GMail" app.

Please post how you installed them (& links to where they are), because you can't install a bunch of these through the Android Market yet
I've installed:
->CF-Bench (beating SGSII when TP is overclocked to 1.4GHz, woo hoo)
->PowerAMP 2.0 Beta (minor graphical glitches)
->ArchiDroid
->SetCPU
->GameBoid
All in (mostly) perfectly working order.
I flashed gapps after installing CM7 through CWM recovery, and installed all apps below via Market. No issues for me at all with the market except for apps like Facebook. There's a fix for missing apps in the market. Just flash the zip in cwm recovery.
Issue detailed here.

I was able to side-load a Facebook apk, but it FC's as soon as I try to open it. Did you guys that have it working do anything special?
Edit: I uninstalled Facebook and reinstalled it after fixing the market, and it worked. However, if I reboot the tablet, it starts FCing again. I have to install it and install it again for it to work. Weird.
Has anybody tried the Wii Mote app? Does the Wii Mote work?
Just so everyone knows, in case you haven't tried it, you can install apps from your phone by using Titanium Backup (Not sure if it's been mentioned already)...
- Backup using TB on your phone
- Copy TB folder from phone to Touchpad storage (Via PC/Mac)
- Restore using TB on Touchpad
INSTALL GAPPS PAK AND MARKETPLACE FIX FIRST (In Android Thread)
Apps I have working.
All google APPS Including navigator with BT tethered from my Atrix EDIT: BT No longer works after restarts and unpair/re-pair...
everything else seems fine..
EDIT:
Market
Zenonia 3
Destinia
PSX4Droid (runs but my BIN/ECM wont work. They work on my atrix so probably just not compatible yet..)
MKV movies
Facebook (crashes after first use)
Angry Birds
MIUMeet
Hanging With Friends

Are all of you getting Facebook to work normally. After I install and use it, I then back out of it to close it. When I open it again, it keeps force closing. Only solution is to uninstall and reinstall. But I have to do that every time I wanna use the app. I'm sticking to the website for now.
Also, the XDA app keeps force closing on me when I try to open any thread.
Six axis is compatible!
For Facebook Install fake GPS and set your location and then will work without problems... OMG NOVA 2 works (first of many Gameloft games that i tried)
I've noticed that few of you have installed the Amazon app store. i got it to install, but for some reason, I can't sign in. I can sign in fine on the Amazon website, but not the app. Is there some authentication issues with cm7? anyone else experiencing anything like this?
Did you try my app Task Changer PRO? it works perfectly. Perfect for cm7.
Tweetdeck works

In order to get Facebook working you have to install the app "fake GPS" from the Market and set a faked GPS location.
After i did this Facebook works fine for me.

[APP] Google Play Store (Android Market) v3.5.15, v3.5.16 ORIGINAL + MOD (NEW) 12.4.

Here is the ORIGINAL and MODED version of Google play store for our Android Devices:
Requirements: Android v2.2+
Overview: Play Anywhere, All your entertainment in one place, Google Play is your one-stop shop for all your favorite entertainment.
CHANGELOG:
- You now have the Installed and All tabs you can swipe between. The former one is what we used to have before - it lists all apps installed on your device. The latter lists all apps you've ever installed in case you want to download them again or travel down the memory lane. This is quite handy, and I've seen this list before in the Play Store on the web, so it's great to get it here in the mobile app.
- The All tab contains a handy dropdown with all your accounts (if you added more than one) and lets you switch between them very easily (as opposed to clicking Menu, etc).
- The list of apps you have purchased but uninstalled or haven't installed yet has moved to the All tab... which means it's now mixed in with the free apps you no longer have on the device. I'm not sure how I feel about that - on one hand, I like that it's gone from the first list, but ideally there should be a way to filter paid apps from free in the All list. Maybe someday...
- A few of the stock apps that apparently never got linked to the Play Store before got identified and picked up this time, and updates to such orphans were waiting for me when I fired the Store up. I've complained about this very bug in my last rant, and it looks like someone listened.
- Just like in the web Play Store:
# reviews now show the device used by the reviewer
# reviews can now be sorted by Most Helpful first or Newest first
# you can now filter reviews to show ones for the latest version of the app as well as made by only the device you are using
Credits to Deeco7 for changelog
MOD VERSION features:
Unlimited access to apps in Google Play Store
Removed countries restriction in Google Play Store
Fixed the issue which your device is not compatible with this item in Google Play Store
Credits to L.D.B.
INSTALL:
ORIGINAL - Just paste Vending (original).apk or GooglePlay v3.5.16.apk to your phone and install it...
MODED - first make a backup of your previous market first in system/app using Root Explorer (rename Vending.apk to Vending.bak or something) or just delete it, then simply copy attached Vending.apk or GooglePlay v3.5.16-mod.apk it to your system/app folder using Root Explorer (or similar app). After that set permissions how is showed in attached picture down, then restart your phone...and enjoy yourself.
PS: KEEP ***** SLAPING THAT THANKS BUTTON...

Heeelp! When I try to open Play Store it instantly closes! I have XMP old xperia project latest with naa-kernel 11. Shouldn't it normally get the market app when I get to play store? I tested many roms by now but noone had the original market.

You need to flash google apps (gapps). In CWM recovery First wipe data,factory reset,dalvik cache, then Install XMP rom, then install google apps : http://www.mediafire.com/?brzi261rxhp8rtr (The newest Google Apps by D3V!LC0R3).After that restart your phone...when it boots, sign in to your google account, open market (browse for minute, he will automaticli update to google play store)...cheers.
