A device so pristine that it could have been unboxed yesterday has come into my hands :-)

So...lots of stuff hard to find....

What I have now is rooted 1.7 (nice that it was fully updated and clearly cared for all these years).

I've been doing some experimenting with the various nookdevs apps, but several other things have caught my attention in reading over old threads here and in the development section. I'm thinking/hoping maybe someone out there might have the files... Maybe?

Anyway, I'm looking for the files described here: https://twll.blogspot.com/p/nook-fir...rovements.html

That would be a patched ReaderEpub.apk, android.policy.jar, and libpdfhost.so

Also, copies of the original ReaderEpub.apk and android.policy.jar from FW 1.5.

I've already asked the original developer (still around here by another handle), but he has nothing :-(

I think that's it...for now :-)
