A few weeks ago I came into the possession of a nook that someone had previously left up for target practice. Evidently, they were a poor shot as the nook as unscathed (aside from a single bullet hole in the case.) After bringing it home, I tried to unregister it, when I was informed I couldn't do that without the accounts password. So, I did a hard reset where I held the power button for 20 seconds, 6 times. It seemed to have worked, as it reverted to software version 1.3 and it /said/ that there was no account registered to it. It even prompted me, telling me I needed to register an account before I could do much of anything with it. I attempted registering my Barnes and Noble account, at which point it asked me to unregister first. The settings menu doesn't display a registered account, and no longer has an option to unregister, even.
So, I'm left with the only option I have left, going through the process someone goes through after bricking a failed rooting attempt. Unfortunately, I can't seem to find anything for the First Edition nook on google. Which leads me here.
Any resources would be appreciated, or actually explaining it here. Thank you in advance.
