can't deregister Nook Classic

willaful · 11-22-2020, 02:10 AM

My Nook Touch has gotten too old and funky to be worth using, so I want to deregister it and donate it to e-waste.

Unfortunately, one of its funky traits is not being able to tell that I'm connected to the network. It tells me I'm connected and I see the full bars, but then it continually tells me that I can't deregister because I'm not connected.

I don't want to just toss it in the trash -- any ideas how I can get it wiped? Do big magnets still work?

Tried: turning it off. Changing networks. Logging into my B&N account (which just tells me to do it on the Nook.

)

I just found another thread about this issue: https://www.mobileread.com/forums/sh...d.php?t=329250

so I'm giving that solution a try. Perhaps my nook will even be vaguely usable if it works! If not, I need that big magnet....
