Do you still have update 1.0.1?

I have a brand new NC and still hasn't automatically updated to 1.1.0.. I want to use autonooter, and would like to do it with version 1.0.1, but it is no longer available at B&N site!
Can someone please upload it somewhere so I can upgrade my NC to 1.0.1 and then root?
Thanks!

ReRoot Help

So here is my situation.
Have a rooted Nook Color that is still running the 1.0 barnes and noble, does not update.
I want to upgrade my android os but can not until I upgrade to 1.1, so it looks like I will have to reroot it after I upgrade to 1.1
Am I correct in thinking this? Any suggestions of how i should go about this,
1.Do i need to erase and reroot after updating
2. Which android os should i root it with after this
3. Will I lose all my apps if i do this
4. Will this affect my books that I have loaded on?
Any other suggestions or links would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks in advance for taking a look at this.

Don't quite understand what you are trying to do here, but upgrading to 1.2 will get stock up to Froyo on the NC (ie an upgrade to Android). If you are running one of the other roms, then it doesn't matter what stock is.
As far as how to get there, yes, you need to wipe the NC, but you shouldn't lose any books actually, at lease I didn't. You will lose your apps, so use Titanium Backup first.
So, restore to stock, use the official B&N update, then go use Manual Nooter to root.

How to sideload 1.2 update to a 1.1 rooted NC?

Hey there Guys & Gals,
Searched throughout the forums and couldn't seem to find a straight answer on this.
I originally rooted my wife's 1.0.1 NC using Autonooter. That worked out great and then I was able to sideload the 1.1.0 NC updated using ROM Manager and CWR to apply the pre-rooted update ROM (this is where I got the pre-rooted sideload: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=932145). After that I used an SQL editor to turn all the software updates to manual. This manual switch has held the 1.2.0 update off and everything is working great.
However, I'm really interested in 1.2.0 and would love to apply another sideloaded, pre-rooted update IF that exists. Does anyone know if this is out there? It sounds like most NC owners are running CM7 now as opposed to going down the stock rooted (no ROM) version of the NC. Is there anyone who was successfully able to load up rooted 1.2 from rooted 1.1 without having to resort to an alternate ROM?
As a side question, has any 1.1 NC owners had success with the Netflix app or does that absolutely require at least 1.2 to work correctly?
Thanks for your help!!!

Wanted to bump this one again in case anyone had any suggestions. If not, I'll let this thread die.

Same boat here. I'm still running 1.1 with updates set to manual but I have CM7 on SD. I would also like to update to 1.2 but as far as I know, the only way to do it is to return to stock, unrooted 1.1 and then apply the 1.2 update from B&N. After that, you have the manual nooter option to root 1.2.
Have not been able to get Netflix to work on either stock 1.1 or CM7 with and edited build.pro file. It doesn't show up in the Market so I haven't even been able to try to get it to work.

I know there's a CWM-compatible stock 1.2 ROM floating around the dev forum, but I don't know about pre-rooted. It would at least save you unrooting 1.1.

Sounds like best option is to use the 1.2 CWM capable update and then autonoot again... hmmmm. Everything is working great now and I don't want to mess anything up, but netflix and flash are both very tempting...

B&N Announces 1.3 update on FB

Just wanted to get the work out that B&N announced on FB this morning (18 minutes ago as I post this) that there is a 1.3 upgrade to the NC.

Okay, I have an interesting situation...
I purposefully installed CM7 on a uSD (using verygreen's guide) to keep my NC stock while I am in my warranty and for other reasons.
At some point however, I must have used CWM's (ROM Manager) feature to Flash CWM Recovery. I know this because when I follow B&N's instructions to manually update to 1.3 the NC reboot's into CWM (I had previously removed my uSD with CM7 on it so there would be no trouble with the update process).
When the NC boots into CWM, it is with errors that it does not find a "signed" zip file and I can only reboot (which reboots back into the stock ROM just fine).
I haven't had much time (as I'm at work at the moment) to investigate this so my question is...does anyone know how to remove CWM that has been installed from the "Flash CWM Recovery" feature in ROM Manager? Or is there a way to bypass CWM during the 1.3 update process?
I was hoping to have this on 1.3 so I could play with it at lunch
Any ideas?
P.S. I am hoping to be able to remove CWM without resorting to flashing a new stock ROM if possible....

Saw that after I posted...I guess I'll have to follow them on twitter, heh

fwiw, I just loaded the stock rom over the top of my stock rom that had CWM flashed to the eMMC.
I wish that CWM had a feature to "un-flash" and that locations were not hard coded in the app (because it seems that it wants to install to eMMC every time) so it could be used interchangeably with the eMMC or a uSD installation of custom ROMs.

Perhaps verygreen's instructions should be updated. I have seen far too many people who ended up with custom coding on their eMMC and that is definitely a no no..... verygreen has not posted in over a month though he has been here.....

Yeah. I had PM'd him regarding his installer a while ago but he has not responded either...he has fallen into "lurker mode"
I don't even know what I was thinking when I flashed it, probably just to see what it did with regard to running from the uSD more than anything else. I had previously been using CM7 on the eMMC before I went the CM7 from the uSD route.
Verygreen very clearly outlines the update process though if we just read his guide. I'll be the first to admit that I usually skim through things and jump right to it, heh, I am sure others do this too. So I can see where it is easy to miss. Even seasoned IT people like me miss things.

Nook Semi-Rooted 1.4.1

I bought my son a Nook for xmas. It was running 1.2 out of the box. I rooted it and added a couple of apps and put it in the box for him. Xmas day, and the Market is not working. When I check the device info, it in now running Ver 1.4.1. What's up? What is my best way to Re-Root it? I tried putting it back to factory stock, and it puts it at 1.4.1.
Help??

Im having the same issue bought one for my dauther for xmas had root had apps and angry birds zeam launcher and so on....she played with it for about 6min then update now on stock 1.4.1 is there a way to root it like nook tablet where you can just have market place and some sort of launcher i really like the best of both worlds on my nook tablet

So, what neither of you did is block updates. Personally, I've found the most effective way is to update the database, but that's water under the bridge now.
Best thing going for your current situation is here

Where is the block update?
Thanks

Use the 3.0.2.8 CWM image and follow the link doncaruana posted above. Download and copy the MN 5.12.20 to the root of the CWM SD card. Then install the the MN file from within CWM. GMPower has laid it all out in his post in the NC Dev section in a post titled "[NC][1.2][1.3] ManualNooter 4.6.16" just use the MN 5.12.20 file instead.
