I recently found my old nook and got a new battery for it so it’s working again!! My plan was to sideload some books, but there’s a bunch of old books on it I can’t figure out how to delete (not just archive).

Is there a way to delete them without deregistering? If I deregister will I be able to use it without registering or bypassing it to sideload my books? Any help is appreciated!!

I purchased a Lenovo M9 earlier this week, before I saw the post about the Nook app being unavailable. The M9 is now on an extended shipping delay which got me thinking more about my purchase.

Is there any chance the Nook will get Android 14? I can't find the answer for the M9 either.

Any reason I'd want to stick with the M9 over the Nook? I'd miss the Nook app (my books Nooks, Kobos, neither and a few kindle). I can probably get a gift card for the Nook to offset the price difference.

Someone is selling this for $100, I wonder what model this is? I can't find it on through google lens.

All ebooks I have are barely 500 mb, how to delete the extra?

to owning a nook over a kindle. Reason I'm asking is they just built a B&N 5 minutes from where I usually go to sit, read, and enjoy my coffee on Saturdays while reading a kindle or the occasional physical book and even signed up for something with B&N.

My son was wanting my Kindle and I saw the Nook station but I am not familiar with Nook anything. Are there any benefits to having a nook and a B&N account, is there like a kindle unlimited with nook?

I've seen a lot of YT vids recently and the nook isnt really favorable so not sure if its worth the investment or if I should get my son his own kindle. Appreciate any advice, experience and or suggestions. Thanks!

Looking at the Glowlight 4 Plus as my option, the physical buttons are intriguing.

Straight to the point - my Nook Glowlight got retired and I’m not sure if I should get a new nook or get a kindle and “start over”. I also have an iPad that I read from so it’s not like I will completely lose access to my nook ebooks if I go the kindle route.

Thanks!

I want a Nook 4 Plus for my birthday, but had a question about the audio book feature. Is it possible to listen to audible on the device and read the ebook at the same time? I like to listen and read. Thanks in advance.

Does anyone know of any clear case that’s compatible with the nook? I haven’t been able to find any on Amazon and Barnes and noble only has a few to choose from but they aren’t my style. I have a nook glow light 4 plus by the way!

Hi everyone,

I keep seeing people with Kindles get gooseneck holders that clamp to their beds with page turn remotes, but I can't seem to find any that aren't sold on amazon (as I'm sure is true of most people with nooks, I'd really prefer to not shop on amazon). Has anyone here had any luck finding something similar off of amazon that would work for a Nook Glowlight 4?

I received a nook glowlight 4 for Christmas and I’m so in love with it! But I have noticed that 1 of my bookshelves keeps disappearing, while the other two seem to ‘stick’. The books themselves don’t uninstall, and are still listed in the individual list, but when I create a bookshelf , it eventually deletes itself . Does anyone else have this issue?

Hey everyone! I downloaded an epub on my phone and could add it to my Nook app. I can read it and everything from my phone, but it doesn't show up on my nook device???? What am I doing wrong? Please help

I picked up the Nook Lenovo back when it was on sale in December. I finally had time to set it up and am greatly enjoying it. I got it to read manga and so far the screen has been great.

I’ve been catching up on Witch Hat Atelier and the art is really beautiful on this. The line work and colors are so crisp and vibrant.

The biggest negative so far is all the apps that come pre-installed. There are a lot of unnecessary game apps that I’ve had to go through and delete. But I am pretty happy with my purchase.

Side note: The clear case isn’t 100% clear, there’s a bit of a yellow opaqueness to it(like aged clear plastic has), I’m not sure if that’s from the material it’s made out of. The case is like a soft plastic; it bends easily without a nook in it.

I have a few Nook Simple Touches that I had gotten in ereader auction lots, it was fun to have one again since I had long ago sold my original one. The last one I received was after the cutoff to B&N for registration so I had to skip the OOBE to get it working. After hearing about the Phoenix project I decided to try it on my unregistered NST and I used Phase 2 - The stock B&N system, registered, rooted, with new UI and more. It took a while to get everything in order, but once i did, the process worked perfectly. Even though I won't use the NST much, it was such a fun project that I tried Phase 3 - B&N system removed, new software added, with new UI and more. This one didn't go quite as smoothly as the Nook locked up after each step, but was able to continue to the next step after rebooting. I am just getting ready to try playing with the different readers that are installed in that version. If you have a Simple Touch or a Simple Touch with Glowlight, I recommend giving it a try. Just follow the steps on the XDA thread and it should work no problem.

It’s nothing. Footer still contains the odd text.

Ever since I got a new mac, I can't side load my nook because the "nook" folder doesn't show up when I connect via USB. Any idea on how to fix this? Thanks!

This is a throwaway account so sorry for the low karma haha, but I just wanted to share my positive experience with the glowlight 4 plus, since I've seen soooo many negative and mixed reviews on the B&N website, and people wondering on here whether or not it's a worthwhile purchase.

I feel like the overwhelming majority of negative reviews, after reading am lot of them, are coming from people who see a new/updated version of an ereader and are expecting it to run like a tablet with an lcd screen. There is some latency when loading non-reader pages on the gl4+, like scrolling through the library or settings, but no more so and sometimes better in speed than other eink displays I've used. I've found the reader itself to be very smooth/without disruptions when turning pages, and the display is clear with or without the glowlight on. It's not a bad tablet, because that's not what it's intended to be. It's a well performing eink reader.

I've seen some complaints about battery life, which is fair, given b&n's lofty promise of "up to three weeks" of reading for a week on a single charge. This just depends on usage though, the three week claim is based on specific conditions of use; i.e, if I have the glowlight on for an entire day, or have it connected to WiFi to download a bunch of books, the battery drains faster. But if I'm strictly reading, and not connecting to WiFi much, I usually charge it at most once a week.

Overall having a really good experience doing the majority of my reading on this device and thought I'd share for anyone on the fence! If you don't already have a nook, I'd say it's definitely worth it.

I want to buy a nook, and I want to import my pdfs to read on them, I'm trying to save money, any advice on how and where to get one?

I love love love love loved my nook simple touch glowlight (gen1). A couple years ago, I couldn't see it on my windows 10 PC, but broke out my hand-me-down win 7 laptop and it worked for dragging PDFs/EPUBs.

Took a bit but I'm finally on the last stretch of my backlog of books. I want to know if there's some hack I can corce onto it that lets a newer win10/11 PC talk to it. Worst case scenario, I use a USB and transfer from my W11 PC to my W7 laptop and from the laptop to the book but that's not as "plug&play" as I hoped.

This was one of my first devices I bought with my own lawn mowing money (it still cycles though all the wallpapers I put on it when I was 12, it's my favorite "ancient" device lol) and it works perfectly aside from not talking to the latest windows.

How well does a micro SD work? Does it need to be formatted a certain way? Can I transfer files from an in-use microSD to the system itself or do I need a separate microSD?

Thank you

Are they supposed to? We have over 250 books on the account, but they're not downloading on their own. Under account settings, the books are all selected / checked. We have to go to the library page, uncheck the option that only displays download content, and manually download every single book. Is that really how this works? Or is there some setting someplace that we're not finding? There's something that looks like a refresh logo in the top right of the page, but that seems to do nothing.

I had a Nook when I was a little kid which I lost, and I want to read again. So, I went to a thrift shop, and there was a sealed Nook Simple Touch right there ripe for the taking. Without thinking, I bought it for 20 bucks, went home, started setting it up, then realized that B&N is greedy, so I can't register it.☹️

I'm thinking that rooting it using Nook Manager could work, but I haven't gotten it to work yet (I'm assuming I need to update the dang thing, but I can't find the files anywhere). So, if it's worth the time and patience to find the files and update my nook, then please help me out! 🥺🥺🙏🙏

When I try to slide my Nook Color on, it will slide to a green dot 3/4 way across, and not go beyond the green dot! Is there anyway to open it?

I am not able to set my gift card balance as my default payment settings. Does anybody know how to do this?
