How to Skip OoBE Experience

OK, figured it out! :D

Enter the Factory Screen by holding the TOP RIGHT Button and slide your finger across the top of the Nook from left to right. A button labeled "Factory" will appear in the top left of the screen.

Once in the Factory screen, hold down the TOP RIGHT Button and tap in the bottom right of the screen.

A new button will appear labeled "Skip Oobe". Tap that and you're done!

Yes - that is what i need - i don't want a credit card entered there or even register to B&N ...

Has this "trick" any disadvantages ?

Any drawbacks ? Is it reversible by resetting the Firmware ?

I'm at the setup screen (WIFI) and i am scared to go any further without confirmation that i am not destroying anything on my new loved device ...8)

Thanks for an answer !

'rooting without registration'

Any success story on this?
[Nook Color Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] croques:
You do not need to register to root. I'm in the UK and couldn't register anyway but went ahead and rooted the factory 1.1 and upgraded to 1.2. Eventually I settled with a CM nightly running from the eMMC. You can always drop back to unrooted 1.2, and thus have the opportunity to register, whenever you like.

Just do it.

Wait, did you install CyanogenMod sucessfully on Nook Simple Touch (The e-ink one)? This device isn't listed as supported on Cyanogen website... everything went well?

Why would a unregistered Nook Simple Touch's battery drain faster than a registed one

Thank you crazy_jake for your post on how to bypass registration and I was able to complete that.

The thing is, I have read on other forums that bypassing B&N registration causes the battery to drain really fast... faster than the ~2% a day WITH registration.

Currently I am experiencing the same average of 20% battery loss per 24 hours with Wifi OFF and little to no use. 20% a day equals recharging every 5 days which is far from the advertised "2 months" or 2 weeks (claims from reviews) for that matter.

I have scoured the internet and I know others are experiencing the same battery drain with an unregistered nook, but I cannot not find the reason as to why this is.

Personally, I really dont understand how bypassing registration would have anything to do with the battery...but, I am not very tech savy.

I live in the US and could register the device, but it's the pricipal of the matter and I don't want to register it. I completely disagree with having to register a device when I OWN it, not Barnes and Noble.

I do not wish to root it. I do not wish to receive free books or content from B&N.

I just want my sideloaded Nook Simple Touch to have the "2 month" battery life that B&N advertises WITHOUT registering to a B&N account.

Any suggestions as to how to fix the battery drain issues on a nook that is not registered to a B&N account and an explanation of what is causing this issue?
[Nook Color Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] EEaudio08:
Hope I don't get blasted for resurrecting an old thread, but I'd also like to know if there's a solution/explanation to the massive battery loss on the Nook Simple Touch after setting it up without registering. I've only had it for 2 days, but I lose between 10-20% each day, and that's definitely not 2 months worth of battery life...

I don't want to root either, so an explanation would be most appreciated, if anyone is more enlightened than I!
[Nook Color Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] drrzvn:
Hello! I known this thread is old, but I could not find any closer information. I've just bought a Nook Simple Touch(in Eastern Europe - not sure if there are region specific devices) and I would like to skip for the moment the registration, since I'm not the intended end-user. However the above method does not work for me: I cannot even see the "Factory" button from 1st step...

So I'm wondering if anyone else is encountering the same and if anyone knows how to do this on newer Simple Touch Nooks(I suppose the method is not working since a certain newer firmware version...)

Thanks in advance!
[Nook Color Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] threebeers:
Thanks. Used this trick on a second hand NSTthat won't recognize any WiFi networks, including the BN store. This was after a factory restore so the wifi chip probably is toast. I plan to root. Has anyone who bypassed registration figured out what APKs to delete or freeze with Titanium to safely stop the battery drain issue, specifically allowing normal sleep? There,s a generic thread about deleting cell apks but I,m hoping for ideas from somebody who has actually done it without bricking. Thanks again.
[Nook Color Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] w_kn:
I know it's a resurrection to this thread, but I really would like to know how to do it... The method above just does not work for me :( I bought my Nook in the UK and needed to reset it after a boot loop. What else can I do? I do not see the factory button.

Yeah I know, but I wanted to see what it could really do while really using it with GB and EXT4, so divide that 74 hours by 2.2 (stock batt =1500mah, in test was a 3300mah, that's 2.2x's stock) and that's about 33 hours with 5% remaining and 6 hours screen on and that still beats noobnl...

Yes its a bigger back cover, but the best if you ask me (I still like OEM better)...

@ Tbob, its the stock deodexed EF02 ROM that Decadence made, then I added all the EXT4 support, as many init.d scripts that I thought would work with the kernel, and everything is freaking awesome, Ill have an all AOSP theme when I release the first version...

[Epic 4G General] RandomKing:
I've been able to rival that on EC05 with the stock 1500mah battery.

Using my own rom configuration. Unfortunately, I regularly plug into a computer for file transfers and what else, so I can never really keep the time since unplugged accurate, but that screen shot is 12+ hrs with only 8% loss. :rolleyes:

Currently I am at about 50 hrs, with 45% remaining. Texting, a couple short calls, and a few minutes of email/web browsing here and there.

Again, this is on stock 1500mah. Extended is in the mail, should be fun!

:D
[Epic 4G General] ecooce:
Damn, that's little over 5 days at that rate, probably 5.5, but the thing I see stand out the most in that is screen on time, normally in froyo "screen" would be around 80-90%, it was always wrong compared to everything else (even though I know those numbers can be accurate) but it looks like the screen was maybe on for 15-20m and the rest was idle... I still think my numbers can't be beat...

Edit::: That and I don't trust themed % icons in images anymore, I could get mine to say 100 the whole time, just saying...And I can't imagine how long the real standby of this phone/ROM combo would be from 100-0%, maybe 10 days, that's unheard of for any real smart phone, well until now...

Oh no, no doubt. What I have, and that is a legit screenshot (I can't be bothered to photoshop it, I dont care that much! haha), is the best battery life I've seen on Froyo.

What you're showing, gives me great hope for Gingerbread. Some of the people on here are lucky to get their phones to stay on for 12 hours, let alone 12+ hours of screen time!
[Epic 4G General] ecooce:
Sorry man, I don't mean to doubt you, but I can almost guarantee your screen wasn't on more than 30m when your wifi and standby are above screen, on FROYO. And there are plenty of ways to see if an image was modded with any photo program. I meant theme wise, I can make every icon say 100% if I wanted, but I'm not saying that's what you did. Its just a lot harder to fake and disput the numbers with all the screen shots I provided.

i'm getting similar performance on ACS freedom. But for me, its about real world battery usage and my screen stays on WAYYY longer than that.
[Epic 4G General] RandomKing:
No dispute. It was only on about 25 minutes actual screen time in that particular shot. I generally kill my phone in 1-2 days with heavy heavy use and gaming. :D

That particular test was mainly to know my battery can survive a vacation. (assuming I can actually stay off of it!)

EDIT::: I really only do idle testing. You can't fairly evaluate what any particular amount of screen time equates to in usage given the many many things these bad boys can do.
[Epic 4G General] ecooce:
I agree with your testing method, this also helps to see what background syncs use the most juice, or background apps, like I just noticed that GB keyboard from the market (I dint feel like adding support for the real deal at that time) keeps the phone from sleeping 90% of the time, it kills the battery, a KB lol...

You will love GB man, it has made this phone awesome...

I am interested in this too, it's rather annoying having all the lights on when reading an ebook. And the green one glows constantly over here (without using the pen, which IMHO is indeed quite worthless)
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] jmiller808:
Light isnt too bad

My company bought me one about a week after launch and I dont even notice the light. the color of it makes it less bright compared to the other capacitive buttons in the bezel.

You may notice it at first because you are aware of its existence and focusing your attention on it, but i can guarantee that the more you use it the less noticeable it will be
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] SpartanWarrior:
The pen button/light is next to invisible.

I did something with Spare Parts once and the capacitive lights were on very bright... As well as the pen light. It was very annoying.

I recommend it, its been a lot more reliable than stock for me. I THINK, dont quote me on this, but i think you can change the build.prop on stock or bravox and netflix will work, if you decide not to go with cm7. But i dont know, it might check for 2.3 too.

[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] paolo-red1:
suggest

I haven't understand what is your problem, so I reply with 2 problems and relative solutions.

1. If you want to change ROM, you have to verify the necessary hboot. Ex. For AceSmod007 you can use cm7 or stock hboot, but you must flash the right zip.

2. If you want to try flash roms with another recovery you can dowload the last 4Ext recovery (you can find it in development room): there is a version that can be flashed automatically in fastboot, just putting the zip in your SD-card's root.

Hope that I have been usefull. Someone corrects me if I was wrong.

One complaint though:

It doesn't make Chai Latte's and doesn't have a pull-out Solar panel. A solar panel could be close to the area of the phone, or it could be dual fold solar cell panel that slides into the device. :)

Actually, there is one complaint: It doesn't have indicator LED's for charging or message notification. I installed NoLED, helps, but the phone should have LED's.
