booklover, up to now, no, I rarely used the Nook reader. I use Mantano Premium for reading epubs and Calibre Companion for managing the books. I really didn't need to fix the issue with the "ghost" books, as it didn't impact how I use my device as an e-reader. However, I just hated the idea of how the native library showed over 1000 books on my device that weren't there. It might sound odd since I only very rarely use the native library (primarily for viewing my B&N books in the cloud) but I guess I'm a little obsessive with things like this. So I went ahead and spent the time fixing it.
Fortunately, it's easy to root the device so that I could backup both the apps and their data before I reset the Nook. I didn't lose anything -- including game stats! I used the free app MyBackup Root. It is excellent for backup. You need root in order to backup the app data. Without root you can only backup the apk file.
As for the native Nook reading app, I have started getting into reading more pdf magazines, and I found it to be very good for pdf navigation. So I may be using it more in the future. But that will be mostly on the HD+ which I bought primarily for easier PDF reading.
