So the old NookColor was gathering dust. I could not get the Zombicide app, Handsome’s PocketDM app, nor the Zombie Burbz app to run on it.
The warranty is now long expired, so I thought it was a good time to root the darned thing, and try for something with more functionality.
Linux can be made to run on just about anything including dead badgers, so I thought I’d give it a shot. After reading about CyanogenMod, I figured since it was Stable, it ought to work.
You will need one or two Micro SD cards, an installed copy of the Astro app, and a copy of the Zombicide-80004111.APK file (working or not).
I had all of these on my Motorola X2.
First off, follow the instructions located at:
http://wiki.cyanogenmod.org/w/Install_CM_for_encore
To ‘side load’ the application itself you will need to have a version of Zombicide-80004111.APK downloaded.
Go into Astro and Back Up the application. Back up anything else you will also be using on the rooted NookColor.
Navigate to Backups, and copy the folder to the Micro SD card.
For added insurance, copy the .APK files to a safe place also.
Put the SD card in the NookColor, and navigate to the Micro SD card >Backups>apps
Copy these apps to the internal Micro SD card if you want to remove the SD card.
Double-tap the Zombicide.apk file, and it ought to install.
BONUS -- Handsome’s PocketDM-4.apk also works now.
