I rooted my 1.0.1 nook. Everything worked fine except the home key no longer takes me home. It doesn't do anything now except bring the nook out of sleep mode. I unrooted it by turning it on and off 8 times to reset it. Rooted it again and it is doing the same thing. At first I didn't think it was an issue. I can still use the taskbar to bring up library, extras, web etc. But then I downloaded angry birds, it worked fine but then I found out I couldn't exit the game. I'm assuming you normally exit by pressing the nook button. Since the game is full screen and I can't use the taskbar to take me elsewhere I was stuck on the game until I powered off my nook. I don't want to have to power off my nook everytime I want to exit a game on any other apps the disables the taskbar.
The Nook button worked fine when I bought it, and it worked fine again after I unrooted it, so I don't think its a malfunctioning button, it only happens when its rooted.
Also, after rooting my nook doesn't go into USB mode when I hook it to my PC. It brings up a new removable storage drive, but when I try to access it it says to insert a disk in the removable drive. I can live with this issue as I can remove my Micro SD card and put it in a card reader to transfer files. While that is a pain it is tolerable. The home button not working isn't. I love the rooted nook, but not being able to return home to exit out of full screen apps is unacceptable. Please help me to fix it. Thanks
