Nook App to Sideload on PB?

**JREwing** · 02-27-2012, 11:25 AM

Is there a .bar file for a Nook Android App that I can sideload?

Thanks

That would be sweet for those trying to dump their Nook ala the Kindle .bar

the Nook app doesnt work.

Where is this so-called Nook app?

Nook does NOT work on Playbook, its because of the handlers they used for the app not being Java, which is essential to running on the PB

Well, that was just poopie of them.

One more reason to buy my ebooks from Kindle. I hate Amazon, but many of the books in my profession are only released on Kindle and Nook formats.

The Kindle bar sideloads nicely.

Yes, it does. I grabbed 6 free books this morning from Amazon and they work like a charm. Still, too bad about the Nook. That's a bummer.

I have the latest Nook version running on my Dev Alpha, you guys are welcome to try on your PlayBooks. I've uploaded it here: http://apk2bar.unker.net/bar/c3/81/5..._v1.0.22.0.bar

I tried the build just before this: it installed, log in worked, the library worked, opening pdf worked but epub did not.

I just sideloaded the Nook app from goodreader via the Chrome extension method. App works fine so far. I can access my library and just ordered a new book. Haven't begun reading via app as yet so can't say about other functions.

i have the only known working version of nook for playbook on my site right now, its quite buggy but mostly works.

Update. I used the bar file from kozmonaut. Get a force close message when trying to open a book.

**djenkins6** · 12-24-2012, 12:58 PM

The only book I can open in nook is the National geographic, all the others give force close.

WOWOWOW! works for Bloomberg Magazines (all functions except 'brightness') and force closes any epub which is fine for me since i use my simple touch for those...i think my touchpad is gonna gather dust! THANKS!
