Sounds good. Can I apply this if I have the perm root 9.9.9? Also, what is meant by flashable/not flashable? Thanks, your screens always look great.

If you want to change to this modified version then boot into CWM wipe data and advanced> dalvik cache, restore this ROM and reboot. Do not perform a hard factory reset if you have CWM or you will fall into a bootloop. Flashable zip is a package created with a different technique (RUU) and can be used for flash not only ROM's but apps, mods and a CWM backup is when you make a backup of your entire system including data, cache, boot, etc images and is just used for ROM's.
Also another pro of a flashable zip is that you get more flexibility with the package, you could modify its content to your taste adding/removing apps, files so from a custom ROM you can make your own custom one.

With NT Hidden Settings, there's the option of "Accessibility Settings", there you can choose which keyboard to use at "Input Method"
I'm running Swype with no problem

Update 15/2/12

Alright UPLOADING v2, will be a flashable zip now no more CWM backup folder and a standar Apk_Package_Installer.zip with:

* Androzip
* Anycut
* App cache cleaner
* Dolphin Browser
* ES Bookmark Manager (to create shortcuts of your media on desktop)

... These apps are included in the v2 of this ROM.

As i have mentioned in this thread with a flashable zip you get more flexibility.
What does that mean? It means that you can delete apps that you don't want or add others by drag and dropping it/them within /system/app of the .zip

Edit: OP UPDATED!

I added a download link to a B&N_rebloat_FULL_1.4.0.zip i just made if anyone is interested. As the title of the flashable zip say it will rebloat your Nook with all B&N apps.
I placed the modified version of Hulu+ instead of the original one, that is the only "change".

do you get an error if so what was it, did you select Allow when su request pop up?

Edit: gapps are already included and for get more memory space you have to reformat your nook there is a guide for that.

Look again or reflash please i added all gapps (tested), uninstall ES File Eplorer with the Root App Remover i added , reboot your device and install it again from Android Market (there is a new version anyway) that will fix it.

EDIT: REFLASH AGAIN THE ROM AND DO NOT FLASH THE REBLOAT .ZIP I RECHECKED THE UPDATER-SCRIPT THAT I HAD "MODIFIED" BUT IT DID NOT SO DO NOT FLASH THAT UNTIL I FIX IT
EDIT2: FIXED, LINK UP AGAIN

    Different but still no go.

    1) The B&N reader & store are availible in the stock launcher but are missing in from Go Launcher. Is there a way to migrate the app from the stock laumcher?

    2) Not as but an issue but annoying. The unroot app force close appears after every reboot.

    3) The 'N' key at the bottom reverts the launcher back to the Book default. I think I know why & how to fix this one.

    I was sure to clear the user data and cache this time!

    1. Is normal and why you need to keep stock launcher, you can tap on a book and it will open directly with reader or prompt a window with the option to choose between reader and 3rth party apps that you have installed.
    To handle better the back and forth launchers use HomeCatcher.apk

    2. Move the unroot app from /system/app to /data/app using a file explorer or just uninstall it if you think you won't need it with app for uninstall I have added

    3. Use HomeCatcher

    PS: Read my FAQ for tips

    Just to let you guys know i update OP with a full version (means with B&N content already included) so you don't have to use the re-bloat if you want to have B&N content.

    Also im almost done modifing a CM7 Soft-mod ROM with Ribbons ICS theme!

    @cgdash now i understand your request and that function got deactivated once i change SystemUI and framework-res apps that i got from this thread and here you can see some modifications that users have made. PM @xecuter or post in that thread for help and hopefully it can be done.
