Questions I still have:

  • What will Snape do now that he's no longer in love with Lilly?
  • How did Dumbledore hide in the mirror?
  • Why did all the different groups of people on the third floor corridor at the same time?
  • What's up with Cedric?
  • How was magical Italy ruined 323 years ago, or does it matter?
  • How will the Hallows come together?
  • How will the "rip apart the very stars from the heaven" prophecy play out?
  • Did Harry time-turn the day Hermione died, and, if so, what did he do?
  • Why did Harry say that he wouldn't let anyone obilivate everything he knew about calculus?
  • Quirrell teaching students the Killing curse...will it matter?
  • What happened to Narcissa Malfoy?
  • Why did the rememberal go off?

Did Harry time-turn the day Hermione died, and, if so, what did he do?

Yes. When he went into the room with Hermione's body, he turned the time turner and transfigured her body into a ring while also transfiguring something else (presumably something very small) into a copy of Hermione's body. He then hid from his past self and left the room just after his past self entered. After the transfiguration wore off, the 'body' dissapeared.

Yes, but he could do all of that with a single twist.
