Is there an app that works a bit like the "sudo" command, that lets you root the tablet, do whatever you need to and then unroot? I could go for that. I've always disliked the idea of having my tablet on permanant root access - one of the things I like about Linux is the fact that most of the time you're not on root. I may try the second one, though it looks kind of involved. Or it could have been the book - Guns of the Dawn by Adrian Tschaikovsky - which is a Tor book and so DRM free - maybe they don't like people putting DRM free books on their computer. They're notorious for treating their UK customers really badly. Re the Nook for PC, when I complained about it to Nook, they did say that it wasn't going to be available in the UK - I'm guessing you're American? - so it's possible that they've just removed the ability to download for the UK. Your books are in "apps/bn.ereader/f/B&N Downloads/Books". That will create a directory named "apps". Java -jar abe.jar unpack backup.ab backup.tar You then need to convert the backup to a tar file: Once you have the above software downloaded and installed, type the following in a command shell:Īfter you confirm the backup on your device (don't use encryption), adb will create a backup file named "backup.ab".

If you're only using adb, you only need to install "Android SDK Platform-tools".
Adb, which is part of the Android SDK (the installer is available here).Otherwise, you can still get to them if you're willing to install a few software packages to your PC.
If you can't (or don't want to) root your device, the easiest solution is probably to try to find an older version of the NOOK app. That said, the latest NOOK app stores ebook files in "/data/data/bn.ereader/files/B&N Downloads/Books", which as you feared, is only accessible to root.

Yet when i open the app - without WiFi - it allows me to read the book.ĭoes anyone know where the file might be or how to find where a particular app stores its data? Preferably without rooting it.įirst, I just tried NOOK for PC and it's working fine for me, so maybe try that again. I've searched for epub files using ES and it still hasn't shown up. I looked in the Nook folder frst in Contents and then in all the other folders, i've tried the Data folder under Android and i've not been able to find anything. Now it does seem to have downloaded to the tablet - i turn off the WiFi and it's still readable - but i can't find the file anywhere. But I'm trying to download it to put it on my kobo. I have a Hudl 2 Tablet and i installed the Nook for Android app on it as i wished to buy a book from Nook and this seemed the only way to download it (I used to download it to Nook for PC, but they seem to have stopped this, at least for this book.) So, I bought the book, opened the app and it read fine.
