[Nook Touch General] nmyshkin:
Are you confusing the wallpaper with the screensaver?

Wallpaper

is what is visible when you are on the launcher home screen. It should be white, have two horizontal lines and the phrase "NowReading..." on it. Nothing else. The image you describe is the Bronte Sisters

screensaver

image from "Authors". For now, if you don't want to look at them any more, find the Settings app in the app drawer and go to Display. You'll see a Screensaver setting. From there you can select "Nature" as an alternative. If you want only ONE image

always

as a screensaver, create your own folder in /media/screensavers (you pick a name) and place in it a png or jpeg of your choice, greyscale, about 800 x 600. Then go back to Settings>Display>Screensaver and select that folder as your option.

Do you like the work of MC Escher? I have a screensaver folder of his art that I think is pretty good, even if you only wanted to use a single image. But you may have something already in mind. Also, when you are done the NSTG will be able to use the current book cover as a screensaver, so that's another option.

Not yet. Maybe you'll want it later, maybe not. It's a more complete realization of the settings for a typical Android device and this one in particular.

If your wallpaper (as I described it above or as shown in the images in the instructions you are following) is correct you do not need the Wallpaper Changer app and can uninstall it.

Once the app is initialized any more taps on the icon are like tapping on the "reading now" status bar button (top left). Since you've not opened any book yet, nothing happens.

OK, so that's what I'm talking about just above. You want "Modify Button Actions" but you can certainly look at the others. For example, the slide-to-unlock is disabled by default. You can re-enable it there, and do other things.

But for now you want the "Modify..." There you'll see all the hardware and software buttons laid out, along with additional long-press options for the hardware buttons. The status bar "reading now" button is near the very end of the list. You want to change its activity to NST UI.

Yes, especially as you have a glowlight.

Well, you obviously know where the app drawer is. In the upper right corner of the screen is a three-dot menu with these options:

Setup Group

Manage Groups

Manage apps

ADWSettings

A "Group" is like a tab in the app drawer. Right now all the apps are in a big "group". There are some there you will never want anything to do with (mostly the B&N stuff). You can choose to

hide

those apps to unclutter the app drawer.

If you want to subdivide the apps into tabs, that's what "Manage Groups" is about. You can create and name your own tabs and show only the apps in those groups you want.

"Manage apps" is a shortcut to the App Manager (one of only two ways to get there because B&N removed access from the Settings app). That's how you can uninstall apps, clear defaults, force stop, etc.

I don't like a lot of stuff in my app drawer. If it's on my home screen, I don't need it in my drawer. If I never need to access it, I don't need it in my drawer. I have three tabs, the main one has only 7 apps in it. The second tab is only for the UI component apps in case the system kills one (happens rarely) and I need to restart. That contains another 6 apps. A third tab has the strictly Android tools that I sometimes use when I'm trying to fix something or figure something out. Three or four apps there.

So you can see I have a lot hidden, but that's just me. You may want to leave things as they are by default.
