Hello, I am really new to all this Rooting stuff... I have some questions and I thought here would bee good to ask.


BACKGROUND:

I bought a new nook last month and its serial is 1005xx, I have read only one other person has been successful in gaining root access with that serial number {they seem to have disappeared}.

The 1500xx is unique as it comes preloaded with 1.5, thus, as was written here, none of the DNS changing methods seem to work. and downgrading to the 1.4 era does not seem to be an option.



QUESTIONS:

1.) Is there any way to downgrade to the 1.4 series without using the Nook's internal backup?

2.) Have there been any advances to gaining root directly from 1.5?

3.) Is there anything you might suggest doing or where i might be able to turn?


I have researched all the methods for the rooting the newer hardware to no avail.

any help would be greatly appreciated!
