un-rooting is a 2 step process; but I think the 2 steps you did were really 2 different ways of doing the same thing; so you missed one step
The first time I "un-rooted" I missed the step too, and it was wierd that everything wasn't gone. I was surprised to see my wallpaper still there!
Once I saw that 2nd step - it was fine ... and there was NO trace that I had rooted at that point - at least no trace that anyone at a B&N store could have noticed. You would have to root the device to tell that it had been rooted.
Anyways, as long as you do the 2 step process in the correct order, you don't have to worry ...

In fact, when I took it back the Nook rep at B&N called tech support and they had him reset it and he couldn't get it to work because he didn't know how (he wasn't holding all three buttons).
I didn't know about the 8-count reboot method that SCION mentioned earlier in the thread. I'm wondering now if that would have cleared everything off. I'm assuming it would since it "re-images" the /system partition.
I was hesitant to root my replacement because of this, but this puts my mind at ease a little more  |
