Nook HD+ hard restart

Sadly, the only cure is to do a factory reset. BEFORE YOU DO THAT, realize that you may lose what you have put onto your Nook since you bought it. The good news, is that you can reclaim all the stuff you bought from Barnes&Nobel (nook.com). You only really lose the stuff you put on yourself. I suppose you have a backup of your personal stuff stored onto your computer. How do you do a hard reset? You press and HOLD the power button for about 20 seconds.

Shows 99% won't open and can't shut down

You can first try doing what's called doing a Soft Reset. It's the first and preferred method to try as you don't lose any files or settings. Hold the power button until the Nook turns itself off. In most cases that will be twenty seconds or more. Then turn the power back on by holding the power button down for about two seconds. Hopefully this will allow you to complete a normal boot process. The second and more dramatic way to get a working Nook back is what's called doing a Hard Reset. This process will put your Nook back to "Just Out of the Box" mode. You will lose any files and settings stored internally inside the Nook itself. The good part in all this is it won't touch anything stored externally on your external SD Cards. To do a Hard Reset Turn the NOOK off completely. Hold the Power button and Home (n) buttons. The device will turn on. Continue to hold both buttons until the device shuts off once again (~15-20 seconds). Turn the device on normally. It will prompt for a factory reset. Press the Home button twice to confirm. ------- The important part in the above is to be sure you start the Nook via holding down both the power button and the Home (n) buttons at the very same time and keep them both pressed down until the Nook turns itself off.

I cant not use google play store on my nook hd plus i used too but now it force closes

When you uninstall updates to Google Play Store you are actually uninstalling updates to the Google Play Store app itself and not your other installed applications and their settings what you're actually doing is downgrading the Google Play app itself to the version that came shipped on your nook HD Plus. I know this Uninstall Updates wording tends to freak a lot of folks out because they think it means all updates to everything. In the app itself sometimes this is necessary if a bug is introduced into the most recent version of the Google Play app. Don't worry over time the Google Play app itself will automatically update itself again. If newer versions still have a bug on your system just uninstall updates again until they get it fixed. Over the last two and a half weeks a minor bug was discovered in Google Play that the very second you entered an apps description page Google Play would immediately stop responding to the system and crash. I sent a blind email to a Google support email address I hoped could forward it to the Google Play staff. I sent the email in about this problem about a week ago. It least on my Nook HD plus for the past two and a half days this problem seem to have corrected itself. Knock on wood.

You are the second question in a week about this very same problem between the Google Play Store app and Nooks. Hope this answers both questions and provides a solid workaround should Google Play Store ever get buggy again in the future.

How to delete book?

If the o.s. is android, open the application page, then "parameters" or settings, then in "personal" paragraph open "save and reset" (or so, my tablet is not in English). There you will find "factory reset" which erases all data.
It's easy. Good luck!

Nook won't go past turn on screen

You need to do what is called a HARD RESET.
This resets your Nook back to factory (Just Out of the Box) defaults.
It will erase your internal storage but will not touch any external sdcard.
Turn the NOOK off completely. Hold the Power button and Home (n) buttons. The device will turn on. Continue to hold both buttons until the device shuts off once again (~15-20 seconds). Turn the device on normally. It will prompt for a factory reset. Press the Home button twice to confirm.

Nook won't stop shutting on and off,how do i fix it?


You will have to do what is called a HARD RESET
This will return the Nook to full factory defaults (Just out of box mode). You will lose anything you have saved in the internal storage but it will not touch any external sdcard contents.

Turn the NOOK off completely. Hold the Power button and Home (n) buttons. The device will turn on. Continue to hold both buttons until the device shuts off once again (~15-20 seconds). Turn the device on normally. It will prompt for a factory reset. Press the Home button twice to confirm.

How do you unlock your nook, when you forget your password?

From what I have found on this issue it looks like you will need to restore your nook back to factory settings. Any books you bought and backed up from Barnes & Nobles should re-download once you have restored the device and re-registered.

To complete a factory fallback:

1. Turn your device completely off.

2. Power up the device while holding in both the power button and the physical "n" button at the bottom of your NOOKcolor.

3. The device should begin to power up and you will see the welcome screen however keep holding both buttons down and the device will power down.

4. Repeat step 2.

5. When the welcome screen comes up, release both buttons.

6. The device will begin to power on and then a window will pop up asking if you would like to restore your device. Press the "n" button once and again to confirm.

7. The NOOKcolor will restore itself to full factory defaults and will startup as if it were brand new.

8. Re-register your device (while connected to a WiFi network) and you will start over fresh
