The geniuses at nookdevs are the one that came up with this hack. I am no way affiliated or taking credit for this hack. All the thanks should be given to them for their hard work and effort.

THIS HACK MAY VOID YOUR B&N WARRANTY (MORE THAN LIKELY THE CASE) I TAKE NO RESPONSIBILITY FOR ANYTHING THAT GOES WRONG, IF YOU BREAK IT, IT'S YOUR FAULT AND NO ONE ELSE'S. IT IS HIGLY UNLIKELY TO HAPPEN AS THIS IS PRETTY EASY TO DO BUT AGAIN, I AM NOT LIABLE FOR ANYTHING THAT MAY GO WRONG.

  • @NightSailor Thanks. No one cares. I have an iPad too. HATE reading on it. But I'm so impressed that you in fact bought one and decided to share the fact that you did with us. Actually, I lied, I could give two shits. Keep your retarded and blatant unrelated comments to yourself...you ninny.

  • i alreadu tried to do this about 3 months ago. BUT THEN I FOUND UR VIDEO AND IT WORKED!!!! UR THE BEST. THIS MADE IT EASIER.

  • @LiverpoolHajduk thank you. I'm glad I was able to help!

  • I would recommend that people AVOID doing this mod. I followed the instructions precisely, was able to get it installed, but then my nook was turned into a brick by some of the software included in this process. I have found zero help when I looked for it. I would not root this device unless I had a working copy of the software on another SD Card so I could restore it.

  • @NightSailor You must be doing something wrong...I have done this many, many times with many, many different nooks and I've never had a problem. I would recommend doing this as it opens up a whole feature set not possible with the regular nook software.
