Ok, I was running 1.1.0 nootered and saw that Auto-nooter-3.0.0.zip and thought it was the ROM to install Android 3.0 Honeycomb... So I download it and root my 1.1.0 Rooted nook with 1.1.0 ROM. I confess, I am a newb, and this is a rookie mistake, but I just wanted to let everyone know so they don't make the same mistake... this is not the Android Honeycomb ROM.
This is not the android you are looking for, move along. (If you are looking for Honeycomb)

I have the samsung captivate at 2.1 and it is rooted and has sideloading enabled where I can install non-market apps from my usb card. I want to update to Froyo 2.2. I have been reading but getting different answers about rooting and sideloading Froto 2.2 original leak. Also I have backed up my phone.
1.Can Froyo 2.2 original leak be rooted and sideloaded with this file?(superoneclickv1.5.4)
2.Is this the file for the original Froyo 2.2?(I897UCJI6-OCD-REV02-Low-designgears)
I want to say this is my first android phone and these things are nice. I used to only use windows mobile phones, but now...... hello android.
I would like to say thank you to all the people for the guides and help that make it possible for me to play with this fun phone.

To be honest, I think the latest cognition ROM is way better than the leaked froyo. Faster, smoother, just better. And cognition of course has sideloading enabled.
Coginition question?
I read a little about the coginition roms. They seem really nice but could you answer a few questions.
1.Can you start out with the lastest rom first?
2.I read that it is really hard to go back to your original flash enev if you have a backup.(I did make a backup.)
3.I am not being a smartass but, could you please answer my first questions in my first post please.
Thank you for replying so fast.

If you update to the latest Cognition roms,you wouln't even have to root and enable side-loading.Everything is already built in.

Yes that is the leaked JI6 Froyo firmware, and is also one click odin.
Thank you
Thank you for answering my question.
If i was you I would leave 2.1 and add side loading, lagfix remove blootware and you got a pretty good set up, I have flashed most of the Roms here and I wont say with one is the best becouse each one has it flaws and I think just the leaked Frito has the most bugs tho design gears is basing his cog on it so he fixes stuff as he goes

Thank you for your reply. Which lagfix would you recommend?
Hi,
I can't find this answer online for some reason. BN came out with a port for Android 2.2 on the Nook Color. Why isn't there any roots for that? For 1.1 and 1.2 NookDevs came out with one pretty quickly. For 2.2...nothing? Am I just not finding this?
Thanks!

Ok...figures. After I posted this I answered my own quest.
I think I found the 2.3 root...would this be where people go? cyanogenmod-7 ?
I have done the Cyanogenmod-7. I installed the App ROM MANAGER after I rooted the Nook. From there you can choose what Rom to install on the Nook.
Nook software update 1.2 IS Android OS 2.2. A good list (though probably sometimes outdated) is at http://nookdevs.com/Portal:NookColor.
B&N Calls Their Android 2.2 Port "NOOKcolor OS 1.2"
Hi So I've been searching all around on how to do this but I'm having no luck. I know I know why don't I just turn my nook color into a full gingerbread?
Well here's the thing.... I like the Nook Color OS. What I'm running now is 1.1.0 It allows me access to the market and install market apps while still keeping my nook color OS.
But I could just install Nook Color app from the market.... I could but it doesn't work as well as the OS. I like my nook color for the E-book experience mostly. But I read magazine and not all magazine are availble in PDF.
Recently Zinio now is on Android but only in froyo 2.2 and up. I would like to just upgrade the market so I can take advantage of the market and installing amazon app market
I update once but it didn't work. It changed my screen resolution.
Please help

I prefer the version that puts CWM on internal memory.

Links are fixed, I made the mistake of copying part of an earlier post I had made.
Thanks But the links don't show up
Stock 1.2 and ManualNooter is FroYo.

You're right, the links didn't work, but it has the thread numbers, or you could just do a search based on what he said they did.. anyways, here are the links he tried to post, but you have to read them and make sure you follow directions, because if you don't do it right, we aren't going to do the searches for you how to fix it. (Sorry if I sound jaded, but we all have to learn how to do it ourselves)

And in my opinion, I would do a few other things UNLESS you use the nook reader app on a daily basis..
This is a must

Dual boot the stock rom with a more functional rom(like cm7) if you want more features than 2.1, go for 2.3.4. It is much more of a jump than 2.1 to 2.2(froyo)
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1053780
or if you are willing to archive your stock nook color, copy it to a fully working sd card, and have nook stock on demand
[ADV][DEV][CWM]Copy Nook Stock to SDcard Image[5/9]
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1061523
Then you can install any rom you want on the main memory, but have a fully functioning bootable sd stock rom(which I did, and now it just sits on my coffee table)
or, if you are feeling really crazy, find the latest honeycomb rom.. but you can find the link yourself.

Hey thanks I'm really sorry to ask all these noob question. So I tried to upgrade to froyo once and it change the screen resolution. Like you could tell things were slightly bigger is that auto manualnooter?

Maybe, but I doubt it. It MAY have changed the lcd density setting slightly to make the market work better, but it would be barely noticeable. Seriously though, as someone who didn't want to give up the stock rom, get clockwork mod recovery on there, no a nandroid backup, and try cm7 if you want stability and lots of functionality, or miui, or maybe android 3.0.
Personally, the only thing the stock rom does well is read books, but once I found moon reader + I didn't need that anymore, and I can't think of a single other reason to keep the stock around anymore.

^^^^^
This
but don't use honeycomb (android 3.0) It's full of bugs and glitches because google will not release the source code.

What's the newest version of CM7? Preferably Nightly, I've seen it includes a good OC kernel. Also, would that version install to an SD card or to the Nook itself? I don't know exactly how the Nook Color works but I'm buying one off a friend for cheap, and want to flash it. Please and thanks alot in advance
EDIT: Sorry all I hadn't seen this thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1030227

There are so many NC's topics that got me really confused, I only have a question that I hope someone can give me some advice. I just got me a NC with with firmware 1.2 and I want to be able to multiboot with GingerBread, HoneyComb as well as the NC stock OS, could someone tell me the steps that I need? Thanks in advance.
I would recommend avoiding the HoneyComb builds as they are buggy. We do not have the source code for HC so it will alwys be buggy. As for Gingerbread, I would recommend CM7.1.0, the latest stable build. As many folks here hve detailed the best route to dual boot cm7 and stock, I will refer you to the excellent threads on that topic. I do not run dual boot as cm7 serves all my needs. I have not had the stock firmware on my nook since the second day I had it. Good luck with your new nook and don't forget to have fun.
