Classic Folder creation for softrooted Nooks?

zardoz73 · 08-30-2010, 08:51 PM

I got my Nook about two weeks ago and I'm happy with it other than the fact that I can't create folders and subfolders on it. I've been looking to see if softrooting it will solve this, but I can't find proof of it.

For softrooted Nooks, is folder creation an option?

I have many folders and subfolders on the Secondary SDcard of my softrooted Nook
Calibre and Calibre2opds create a folder for each author in my library then subfolders for each book.

The Nookdevs version of "My Library" is happy to display index and covers of all the books no matter where they are.

Hi, I softrooted my nook but aside from making the icons look more cool and adding, chess and B&N home, I don't see any of the things I assumed would be there after softrooting. I don't have the ability to add or remove things I don't want, I can't organize or cover flow my documents. Am I supposed to add those things manually? I'm very confused. Thanks for any help.

Just keep pressing on one of the icons and the settings menu will pop up.

Here is a video of it-

If the Icon marked "My Library nookdevs" is not working, you may have to reboot once or install it separately.

It's weird, I pressed one of the icons and am able to rearrange them but My Library, Trook. . .etc. were not installed on my Nook when I did my softroot. I thought they were part of the installed bravo_update.dat.

OK I'm an idiot!

They are all there when I click the + button.

Thanks so much for your help!
