Steps to make your New Nook Color Awesome [rooting, oc'ing and custom roms]

Also note that a new one may not come with 1.0.1 on it, check your version first. Mine was a 1.0.0 which I just bought a week ago new.

 

You may want to update your OP and don't force people to stay on 1.0.1 for the initial update

There is an 'official' auto-nooter for 1.1 now which would actually remove the step about the Pre-rooted ROM.

If this is going to be a stickie, we shouldn't lock people into a single pattern of doing things.

 

Thanks avi, nice post. Don't let um knock your post, as all posts and thread are "work in progress", you didn't say your suggestions were mandatory and this is why the edit button was created. We'll see where this thread going, how well you update it and perhaps a sticky would be warranted. Again I applaud you for your effort. We need more tutorials, how to's", and instructional threads.

 

Big difference between knocking someone and offering suggestions there Rico. If my suggestions are not wanted, I will simply quit making them.

 

wow geat -- sounds like even a novice could do this --- am i right???

 

Yes, it isn't difficult. The hardest part is burning an image to a flash card, which just takes the proper program or two. That, and being patient enough to let auto nooter finish and not panic when your screen stays black for several minutes.

 

All suggestions are good. Do not quit making them. You and Rico both offer good advice. We are all friends here Its all good.

Sorry if I offended you by my comments, that was not my intention. My post was more of encouragement to avi than anything else. Perhaps a poor choice of words on my part and for that I apologize.

You can't write 20+ posts per day without putting you foot in your month or misspelling a word from time to time.

 

My apologies for over reading your post Rico...I had to bury my dog this morning before work, and frankly was in a foul mood...Not exactly how I wanted to start my day.

*Note to self* Stay off forums when in a foul mood

Feeling much better now though.

 

Very sorry to hear, I love dogs. No apology to me, I was clearly out of line when you two were just offering suggestions. Sometimes I play too much "mother hen" around here, when we have a nice self sufficient group (family) here in the Nook section and I shouldn't try to oversee and nitpick over every single post.

Here is my home screen to hopeful cheer you up a bit on this sad day.

 

It does...thank you.
