So what does this mean for all stuff I've added to my NC?

Means nothing to all your apps other items you've added so far. The update will most likely break the root your have on your NC and you will probably just need to re-root.


Update:

NOOKcolor 1.1.0 update was just released on B&n site
http://www.barnesandnoble.com/u/nookcolor-support-software-update/379002520/?cds2Pid=35758

Details:
* Improved performance of Wi-Fi connectivity, Home and Shop.
* Ability to pinch and zoom in browser.
* Enhanced reading experience for magazines and children's books.
* Access helpful NOOKcolor related information and support tips on the new default browser home page.
* Reduce mistyped passwords with "show password" option during registration and Wi-Fi set up.
* Easily identify NOOK kids Read To Me™ books with a new text banner next to the titles in Shop.
* General bug fixes and performance improvements.

Hi I have never updated my rooted nook color. Is there a 'how to' thread I need to use?

So how does one re-root? I did the renaming otacerts.zip to otacerts.zip.bak thing.. Will that keep my NC for auto-updating?

Not needed for b&n updates. You will automatically get the update over wifi unless you decide you want to block it. Or you can manually download the update and install from your pc. See "helpful link" thread if you wish to block updates.

You re-root like you did the first time you rooted. :) See above for your second question.

It's back up now.


I'm downloading the 1.1 update now and will install.

You can block updates, click on "useful links and rooting info" in Rico's signature.

Rico let us know how you make out with the update. Doesn't Clockwork Recovery block updates?

Yea, so far CWR is preventing me from manually installing the update. Still working on it....

If you have clockwork recovery installed it will prolly block the update.
