Changing user on Nook Color (Android in general)
Pretty simple question I think, with Android in general. If I wanted to give my Nook Color to a family member, is it a fairly straight forward process to create a gmail account for them, and unregister myself, and register them?
What about the apps that I've purchased and installed that are tied to MY gmail account? Would they remain on the unit? |

Well, clearly there was a part that I missed in my estimations. Registering a device with Barnes and Nobles always occurs prior to rooting, so de-registering a device will work in the rooted state, but you can't re-register it under a different name rooted.
Ended up having to start from scratch. Fortunately, the Autonooter 3.0 makes things go a lot faster these days. Unfortunately, B&N update 1.1.0 + Autonooter 3.0 yields strange wireless cut-outs coming out of sleep that I've never had problems with on previous B&N updates. |
