HOW TO RESET YOUR NOOK COLOR

You may be one of tens of thousands who attempted to adapt your Nook Color by installing a hacked version of Honeycomb or Gingerbread or Froyo on your new Nook Color.

Then- after you did it, you realized you did not want to mess with the original Nook Color operating system.

That happened to me. And my Nook was bricked, and stuck on a black page with a flashing "android" in the lower right corner.

But before that even when  with Android Honeycomb, and then Gingerbread (Froyo 2.3) I couldn't file manage, couldn't get Android SDK to do anything it was supposed to do, I couldn't even get the Nook Reader application to work properly.

But even if I could, I quickly found both Honeycomb and Gingerbread far more confusing and less user friendly than the plain old Nook Color original operating system.

and it worked exactly as promised, WITHOUT destroying my original Nook Color OS.  It is what I should have stuck with.

Okay- so now that I experienced, Honeycomb and Gingerbread (i.e. Froyo 2.3 instead of 2.2), and the rooted original Nook OS (with Android Market and all the goodies in that)- my preference after all was said and done-  I then had the job of

RESTORING THE ORIGINAL NOOK COLOR Operating System.

That was a major stumbling block. My Nook was indeed stuck with Gingerbread, and no explanation clear how to get back home.  Be it the web to confuse things.

I finally came upon the solution, and for your ease- here it is.
