Read in store works on rooted 1.1!
Woah! I'm posting from my Nook color at a Barnes and Noble store after successfully using read-in-store on my 1.1 rooted nook.

Sweet! That's with the pre-root rom zip?
I did the clockworkmod recovery install and backed up, just now I feel safe from auto updates and was dragging my feet on the pre-root install.....may have to go ahead and get that going... |

Yes.
Saw the in-store badges on books and read-in-store button and gave a try. Download wouldn't go at first. So tried to download a free book. That worked, then read-in-store downloaded. May be unrelated, but worth a try if downloading doesn't seem to start. |

I can confirm that read in store worked for me too after the update to 1.1. I am rooted. Actually, I am dual booting with froyo on the emmc, too.

I have 1.1 now. Where are the instructions to root it? I would love to do it if I can keep the in-store feature.
Edit: I found how to do this in the Color 1.1 Update Prelim Review thread. I'm still not sure what I'm doing but I'll keep reading. Last edited by love2read1357; 02-01-2011 at 09:35 AM. |

I also can confirm Read In Store works via the pre-rooted 1.1 update. Not a big deal since there is nobody saying it doesn't work, but since this was the only original feature that didn't work with rooted nook colors, now that is also not an issue....
So, feel free to root your nook colors and enjoy all the B&N applications, but duck in fear for your life in case you will be thrown in prison for "illegally" modifying your devices operating system..... |

I finally got around to my local B&N specifically to test in-store reading like I was going to do a week ago. I used the pre-rooted 1.1 using CWM and everything (including last book read button and market) have worked flawlessly.
Alas, in-store reading didn't work for me. I connected to the B&N network, pulled up 'Shop' and browsed but never saw the in-store badges or buttons or anything else. Could I be missing something? I had originally auto-nootered, then used the pre-rooted 1.1 instead of going back to stock first. Anyone else have any thoughts? |

Read in store doesn't work for me either. I used the older manual method for 1.1.

Was anyone able to read-in-store and then use a root file browser to find the file that downloaded.
