Rooted with multiple questions
I have rooted my Nook touch. As an aside, I am not familiar with the Android or Linux operating systems. If anyone can help even with just some of these questions I would appreciate it. I used the easy root approach and had the GO launcher automatically installed.

1) How do I find out what version of Android I have? Some apps that I tried to download say that I don't have a recent enough version.

2) I have the standard problem of not being able to search using the market app. I tried downloading a later version and was told that I couldn't with my level of Android. I thought I had seen a fix somewhere in these forums but I sure can't find it again.

3) Trying to access the Android market via the web gives me the common issue of "There are no Android devices associated with this account.". I tried the remove and add phone number recommendation and that didn't help. This is really causing a problem because I can't download anything at the moment.

4) I am looking for a basic reader app that only needs to read non-DRM epubs. I want to be able to control what happens when I tap on the left and right of the screen. I often want to page forward when I tap on the lower left of the screen which isn't usually the default. Cool Reader does about everything I want in terms of basic reading. Problem is that I also want to be able to find my books via series, genres, recently opened, recently loaded etc. Aldiko does this very well. At the moment I am trying to use Aldiko to sort and find my books and Cool Reader to actually read them. I LOVE Cool Reader's ability to use my cover page as my screen saver. That is worth a lot. I was going to try and download the Mantano trial in the hopes that it would give me the best of both worlds. Thanks to the issues above about no devices registered I can't even download this app to try.

If anyone can help with any of these issues I would really appreciate it. I have been working on this all day and got nowhere, well not quite true I have got a major headache!!

Thanks.........Jackie
