I'm desperate in putting the page turn buttons to work on Koreader as it is the best reading app I have ever seen.

Actually while using Koreader as it is now the left bottom page turn button seems to be active in a way it brings up the menu. It doesn't bring any specific tab and it depends on which one has been used recently. So perhaps there is a way to program the buttons without having to root Nook.
As others have noted, the information as to how to root our GL4 is out there, but no one (that I know of) has pulled it together in one place. I'll need to remind myself how I achieved root and then translate that into a clear step-by-step guide that anyone can follow.

In the meantime, if you want to get started, you can root the GL4 by using Magisk. If that doesn't mean anything to you, wait for my guide - unless someone else wants to beat me to it and do one!

PS - I noticed that same thing with that left bottom button when using KOReader before I rooted my GL4. It's some feature unique to that app. Unless you know how to edit the actual apk for KOReader, you'll still need to root to get the physical buttons remapped!
