I found another way to bypass the GL4's UMS and have access to the full storage capacity of the device. (Whenever you connect your Nook and the USB mode screen comes up, tap the X to send that screen away.)
First, you need to install another Android launcher by ADB on the Nook. Once you've done that, look for the Settings icon in the app drawer and tap it. Then, look for "Connected Devices" and tap that. You should see a few options (I have four), the last of which is USB. Tap USB. You see three options: Charge this device (the default option), Transfer Files and Transfer photos. Select "Transfer Files". You should now have access to the full storage of your Nook.
This was confirmed for me on my Mac. I have an app called Android File Transfer which should automatically start and show the contents of the device's storage when an Android device is connected by USB. It never came up for my GL4 before. When I choose the "Transfer Files" option, it immediately comes up on my Mac when connected.
I do not know of this Transfer Files option works with MTP or FTP. But it works!
