Same here. Sorry. I've never heard of and don't know the first thing about Moon Reader. Have you tried Moon Reader support?

First. No, this is not normal. I have never seen this. I can't say if your friend did this or of some other app messed something up but, no, it is not normal and you should not see this. Second. Yes, this is perfectly normal. The SD card is a second drive and it shows up as such. It will have...

Congrats. I am glad you were able to get everything taken care of. Rooting really unlocks the true power of these great little tablets. Welcome to the club! - Byron

I'm sorry. You didn't say and the 8GB is so new that I just assumed it was a 16GB unit. Yes, I'd heard that there were finally some root methods for these but I can't really comment on them. Good luck and steer towards anything from Albert Wertz or Indirect if they have anything available for...

I looked back at the beginning of this thread. Just as I thought, it refers back to xda-developers. I originally used this method on my NT back in December when I was version 1.4.0. This method still works but only for version 1.4.0. If you're running a later version, you'll need to revert back...

I haven't looked through the steps listed here but, even if I did, more likely than not this probably refers back to threads on the xda-developers site, the main home of the NT rooting scene. I used a method confirmed to work for 1.4.0, 1.4.1 and 1.4.2. You use the instructions to create a root...

Well, if her NT isn't rooted, that's a little more than I can get into with just a quick post. I'll need to steer you towards another forum with more details. From what you're saying, I'm assuming the NT is rooted. If that's so, depending on the method used, you should have the Android...

Can't she just add her rooted NT to her Google account and then download the apps onto her NT?

I have no idea what the full play store is. You don't root with a certain pastime in mind. You just root, period. Once rooted you can do whatever you want with it. It makes no difference what you want to eventually want to do with it, the root process is is pretty much the same regardless...

Yes, this can be done. I didn't debloat anything and left my NT more or less stock. I don't use the B&N Home screen or launcher for anything but have access to it and all B&N apps when needed. I have a 16GB SD card installed in mine and really don't feel the need to repartition and the procedure...

Personally, the biggest advantage is not being limited to B&N's pitiful selection of apps and having access to the full Android Marketplace and being able to install whatever you like. As far as disadvantages, I honestly can't think of a single one. And to answer your question, yes, it is...

Thanks. I've had it working for a couple of weeks now. I guess I should've posted a reply sooner so that it was known that I'd gotten it squared away. - Byron

I doubt that anyone knows if it's true at this point. True being a relative term at this point. I think it's true that they're looking into it. Most of the information that I've read said as much. I haven't seen any official articles stating that this is definite fact. As I understand it, this...

OK, that's good to know. Thanks for the info.

Do you mind shooting me that link? It might come in handy if I run into problems in the future or for passing on to others asking for help. Thanks. - Byron
