Earlier today I rooted ny nookcolor and have been playing around. I have been swtchibg back and forth between the zeam home and standard nook home. I switched bac to the standard nook home to find it downloading 6 random books?? Hopefully they are free. They were books like Little Women and othe random ones...anyone else experience this?
Also i can't seem to find a way to delete books from my nook itself

I accidentally downloaded some of those samples by scrolling around the Library - I guess it's sensitive.
I think the only way to delete them is under your account on the BN website, then sync.

same for me
I haven't been billed for the book and i'm not entirely sure why those books were downloaded
I believe they are standard barnes and nobels classics that are free and every nook downloads automatically cause mine also downloaded little women

Don't enter your credit card info when register B&N account. I don't think you can download anything without it. So far i have nothing on my book shelves. Somebody can confirm or tell me that I am wrong.
Hi, can everyone list the app you feel must have?
Google android market is not counted.
Aldiko, no questions asked. Allows Library eBook borrowing straight from the Nook without Side Loading through AdobeDE.

Thanks, Aldiko is great!
Ok, I've been frustrated by this one. I've got the gallery install in the system\app folder. It pulls my Google photos beautifully. The problem that I run into is that once I install google+ the photos vanish. Additionally, if I install the play store version, 1. something, the gallery says that I need to upgrade the plus version. Should I assume I'm lacking a gallery file or that I have an old version of the gallery?
Rather enjoying this new challenge.

Any ideas on this folks? To be a little more clear, if I install the play store version available to the Kindle the gallery says I need to update plus. If I install the current plus version the gallery only shows empty frames in my albums. I'd love it if anyone had a suggestion.
Peace

So my plan is to immediately put the CM10.1 on this tablet.
I mainly watch movies, read books, browse the web, and play a few games. But not too many games.
Will this tablet give me great performance in general? Or is it going to be limited? What kind of snappiness do you guys have with yours?
For what you will be using for the tablet performance should be perfect with room to spare. The Nook HD+ is a pretty solid tablet, only problems I've encountered are some minor touch sensitivity issues and a little bit of lag here and there but with some tweaking and customization it works pretty well.
Had mine since Wednesday. Great for watching TV/movies (avi/mp4).
Good for reading the web.
Great for comics.
Not got around to reading via the Kindle app.
Plays music fine.
Really enjoying it, but just like previous poster some touch sensitivity issues.
Well, I guess I will just need to try it for a bit and see if I am happy with it.
Hey I noticed that with it stock there are "incompatible" apps from the play store. Fandango for instance. If I put CM on it, am I still limited or is the buildprop edited so we can actually download these apps

No, most that say incompatible will still be incompatible on CM10.1. Your option is to download on another device, transfer the apk to the HD+, enable unknown sources on CM10.1 and install them. They usually run.

Actually, I just did CM to mine. My benchmark before was around 9000, with CM it went to over 10000.
And I found that several 'incompatible' apps became compatible. MLB At Bat works (only for radio, TV can't find my location). Also, a widgets app, iheart radio, and a couple others suddenly became compatible as well. But as they say, your mileage may vary. Of all the apps I have, the only one that is still incompatible is the Nook app... go figure! :laugh:
I can careless about the nook app. I honestly don't read much. I really bought this just because I got it so cheap

For reading of pdf books I suggest OrionReader, simple and smooth as hell.
For video MxPlayer could handle 720p animes on hd+
Really satisfied with the hd+, definitely a bargain to me
I am so glad you mentioned OrionReader. I use my Nook for reading music scores while playing piano and couldn't find an app that moved fast enough while turning the pages. Now I'm all set!

You're welcome Another good thing about it is you can customize behaviours for different tap zones, very convenient
I have a four year old and want to read him the interactive story books like How the Elephant Got His Trunk. I am running 10.1.3 and sideloaded the nook app (since it wasnt in the app store). Well it says that "this title cannot be viewed on this device."
Is there any way to fix this? Or maybe another source of books like these?

The problem is the Android version of the nook reader does not support kids interactive books. That is because the interactive books are really not books but applications that only the stock reader now's how to operate.

Darn.. Well let me ask you this. If I run the stock rooted software with the "enable unknown sources", could I load up google voice and hangouts at least?

Google voice crashes on stock. I don't know about hangouts.
I suggest you try dual booting where you have stock and CM10.1 each on either SD or internal. Put CM10.1 or CM10.2 on internal and use verygreen's stock on SD so you can put the SD in to run the kids books.
