Cannot create anymore users?

[intaglioman]

Hi there,
Ive just grabbed a Nook HD for my Mom for christmas, We got it running to discover all her prior purchased .mobi books will not work.. So I took it to factory, rooted etc did the OOBE bypass and discovered its called "TESTs Nook" now.. To cut a long story short.. How do I either change the user name or add another account as its just got a circle that spins for litterally hours (unless it restarts!)

Thanks

You can't change the test name. And you can't add an account that has B&N access because the device is not registered. But I think you can just add a profile by tapping the test name at the top.

If you skip OOBE, you cannot change the Test's name. You also cannot create another profile, as you have explained, the waiting icon will just spin for hours, until the end of time, or when the battery dies out (whichever comes first).

If you'd like to change the Test's name, or create another profile, you need to register your Nook device. You cannot skip OOBE. I'm not too familiar with the Nook HD (I'm only accustomed to the HD+), but do you need to skip OOBE to root? If not, then go ahead register (remember the credentials, they are extremely important, you will not be able to register the device again without the same credentials) and then root. After that you can probably get a reader off Google Play which reads .mobi (of course, I'm sure that was your plan all along).

Best of luck, and unfortunately with skipping OOBE, you cannot create profiles or change TEST's name.

All the best.
