If you softroot the Nook does the B/N bookstore and The Daily still work over 3G as it did before the root? What about in the store wifi?

I've softrooted and granted, I don't have the 3G but I do have the wifi and that still works just as perfectly for me.

I have the 3G nook - yes - all the standard B&N functions work with a rooted nook

Thanks for the replies. I am now softrooted and the process went smooth except one step. I actually softrooted, went back to stock 1.4 and then softrooted again because of the problem. After I reverted back to 1.0 and the Nook rebooted on its own, I could not get it to shut off to put my sd card in. I would hold the power button down for 5 seconds like always but the screen would not go blank. The tulip and clock bar at top would stay there. If I touched the power button after doing this the device would go blank for a split second and then go through the start-up. After trying repeatedly to power down, I went back to stock 1.4, powered down no problem and added the sd card. I then reverted back to 1.0 and again could not seem to power off. With the tulip wallpaper and top status bar still on after holding power button for 5-10 seconds I treated it like it was off, held the < button hit the power button and it did the update to softroot. Anyone else had a problem like this. Very strange. Now I have to try to try to learn about ADB and averything else I can do now.

You don't need to know anything about ADB
Everything can be done using Trook and app manger.

Thanks for the info. I've looked at Trook a little. Where do I find and how do I install App Manager? Is there any guide for using Trook?

Step 1
download any app .APK files you like to your PC
Step 2
Connect your Nook to your PC via USB cable and copy .APK files to your Nook main SDcard
directory "my packages/unknown"
Step 3
Disconnect Nook from PC, run Trook, navigate to "my packages/unknown" and click on the app you want to install.

Pretty easy!

Thanks for the simple explanation Sarahsbloke. I didn't know about ADB and App manager either, tried to find information on nookdevs, maybe I just missed it, but it all seemed over my head!

Step 2
Connect your Nook to your PC via USB cable and copy .APK files to your Nook main SDcard
directory "my packages/unknown"


Thanks for the instructions. One question. When you say "main SDcard" do you mean the internal sd that came with the Nook or the external one I installed? Thanks.

main = internal
second/backup = additional (sort of external)

Thanks.
