Nook software update, 53.0.36 & 53.0.66
53.0.36 update for the latest Glowlight+
53.0.66 for Glowlight 3 & earlier Glowlight+ I think the numbers are correct. |

Glowlight 3 — App Version 53.0.67 / 5.3.2.36 Shop Version v5.3.2046 Readouts Version N/A (?) Storage 6.35 GB Glowlight + — App Version 53.0.69 / 5.3.2.36 Shop Version v5.0.271 Readouts Version 5.0.1.4 Storage 2.81 GB For what it's worth. I don't know why there's no Readouts Version for the Glowlight 3. Don't even know what it refers to. |

What I'm seeing now wen I open my Glowlight 3. Maybe I'm wrong, but I don't remember seeing the Android folder before. Also the Glowlight 3 is ejected, rather than unmounted (and there's nothing about Internal Memory). The Glowlight +, on the other hand, is still "unmounted" rather than ejected and you still access it through internal memory? (Maybe these differences always existed and I just didn't notice?)
I can also access the Adobe Adept xml files? Last edited by rcentros; 02-28-2021 at 02:52 AM. |

I recently bought a Glowlight Plus from a guy on eBay who was selling a lot of them at a reduced price. I'd guess these are probably returns for one reason or another.
Mine creaks a bit if you squeeze the side bezels, but otherwise seems OK. I'm still learning my way around the reader, but am pleased to note that there are no problems so far with sideloaded content, including the ability to organize this content into shelves. Maybe this latest software release is responsible? Tried to find out if there was a limitation on the number of shelves you could create, but don't find anything on that. Only that the number of books you could put on a shelf was 100. Am enjoying the reading experience so far. Jim |

I have Nook Simple Touch with Glowlight. As far as I know only the Simple Touch is no longer supported. I have 1.2.2 as the last update. Wondering whether I should turn on the update or no? Any suggestions?

I do not believe it will get the 53.0.xx update. I'm pretty sure 1.2.2 is as far as the Simple Touch (Glowlight or no) goes. NOOK Simple Touch/Simple Touch with GlowLight - Software Updates By the way, treasure yours. Finding a Simple Touch with Glowlight that doesn't have scratches on the screen is tough and they are expensive. I have one that is perfect and one that has a few scratches.

Thanks, I figured the newer update probably wasn't compatible with these Nooks. I do love them, and why I am trying to hold on and use them as long as I can. I have a couple with little chips in the screen and one pristine one, got several off ebay a few years back.
I was able to buy a couple of books from B&N in June and load them just fine so maybe I can hang on to them for a while longer. Last update was 2018. Last edited by rhyta; 09-27-2021 at 03:09 AM. |

I have most of them backed up on Calibre but haven't been able to get it to work lately. Been checking the forums here on where to ask my question but haven't found it. I have version 3.40.1 from 2019, so I have some work to do.
