Hi All,

I want to root my Nook Tablet .

Please show me the way how to do.

My Tablet version is 1.4.0

I was tried to root according to this instruction as below.

1. Enable USB debugging mode:

If you’re accustomed to rooting Android devices, then you know that USB debugging needs to be enabled before engaging in the finer points of hacking. This setting is typically easy to find, but it’s hidden on the Nook Tablet.

Download this APK (for Titanium Backup)

Open the app, and click “Package Installer” when presented with the first menu.

Then it will bring up a message, saying “Install Blocked.” No worries, just hit “Settings”. You’ve now just accessed your Nook’s hidden Android settings menu.

Check the box up top to allow installations for unknown sources.

Then hit “Development” at the bottom and check the two boxes for ‘USB Debugging.’ Finally, uncheck the box for ‘Auto-mount’ at the bottom of the development settings menu.

USB debugging is now successfully enabled.

2. Download & Extract

Download USB drivers and Nook & Zergy

Create a folder c:/ntroot on your desktop (obviously change the drive letter if c: isn’t your default drive)

Extract the contents of both zip files (USB drivers and Nook & Zergy) to the ntroot directory

3. Install drivers

Open that folder (c:/ntroot) and run the file runmefirst.bat.

It will ask you to unplug your Nook. Do it.

It will then ask you to plug it in (meaning connect it via USB to your desktop). Do that.

At this point, open your Device Manager on your PC. On Windows Vista and 7, simply type Device Manager in the Start Menu search. If you’re on an older Windows, right click on My Computer > Properties > Device Manager

In Device Manager, make sure you see an entry for Nook Tablet. Right click on that entry, hit “Properties,” click “Update Driver,” then “Browse My Computer,” and select the c:/ntroot/usbdrivers/ folder. If Windows gives you a warning, hit “Install Anyway”.

If all went well in the previous step, Device Manager will now list your Nook Tablet as Android Composite ADB Interface.

4. Root!

Now go back to your batch window (runmefirst.bat dialogue), and press any key to continue, like it says.

It will tell you to run NookandZergy.bat. Go ahead and run it (it’s also in your extracted c:/ntroot folder).

The dialogue that pops up should display a device number. When it asks, hit “Y” to continue (if there is no number, your drivers probably didn’t install correctly).

Hit “Y” again when it asks if you want to root it.

It will now display a list of commands, as your device is rooted!

5. Install Android Market and Google Apps

Continuing with the same NookandZergy.bat window, it will now ask you if you want to install gApps. Hit “yes.”

This will automatically install all of it for you, and will then restart your Nook Tablet.

6. Install a third-party launcher

After it’s done rebooting, disconnect the Nook Tablet from your PC.

Now open your Nook’s settings menu, and select search. You will now see that Google Search comes up, instead of the stock B&N one.

Now hit the settings button on the bottom right of the search screen, and then select “Search Settings” from the pop-up.

Select “Searchable items” and check the box for Library.

Go back to your search, and search the web for your favorite launcher. ADW Launcher, Launcher Pro, and Go Launcher are all quality options with free versions. On the Google results page, click on the Android Market link (it should be near the top if you search for the launcher’s name).

Click “Install” from the launcher’s Market page, and its entry will automatically open in the Android Market. Install the launcher.

I was used the following 3 files.

(tbp421.APK)

(usbdrivers.zip)

(Nook&Zergy.zip)

But i can`t pass root .Please see the attach photos.

Please teach me how to root this.

Best Regards,
