Enable Multitouch

The NOOKcolor doesn't enable multitouch by default for Android applications (although it does work in apps that use the Native Development Kit, like Firefox or Google Earth). However, you can enable it easily.

  1. Download android.hardware.touchscreen.multitouch.xml to your pc. (Right click and save target as.)
  2. Open a command prompt window and cd to the location of the new file.
  3. adb shell
  4. mount -o remount,rw /dev/block/mmcblk0p5 /system
  5. exit
  6. adb push android.hardware.touchscreen.multitouch.xml /system/etc/permissions/android.hardware.touchscreen.multitouch.xml 
  7. adb reboot

This process remounts your system root as readwrite, copies the file into the right place, and reboots the nook.

The XML file you are installing is as follows:
