Ladies & Gents,

I've perfected Android 2.2 Froyo with working Flash off the internal memory of the Nook color. This version has been extensively tested and confirmed working perfectly by myself and numerous others. You think your nook was running well on 2.1 just wait until you try this build! This will void your warranty while the build is installed on your system but you can ALWAYS boot from SD and go back to complete OUT OF BOX STOCK. Below is a list of features/tweaks and installed programs.


DISCLAIMER:
If you break your nook I am not responsible. Wait, you can't break your nook! You can always revert back to complete STOCK. Follow the damn instructions and you will be just fine.



Requirements:
Dedicated 2GB microSD
External USB/Internal USB Memory Card Reader

Tweaked/Additions:

Full Superuser Access
Recovery Console (backup/restore your NAND) [Vol+ and "n" while powering on]
Removed Signal Bars from Status Bar & NoCarrier Message from Lock Screen
Volume UP is now BACK & Volume DOWN is now MENU

Wi-Fi stays active even when screen is off
Unknown sources (install non-Market applications)
Screen stays awake while USB is plugged in
adb debugging is active [mostly for developers/leave on for me to service]
Windows & Transitions animations are .5sec faster [really speeds things up]

Hang on... this thread is LOCKED pending an investigation. Not sure if the release is valid, and it appears that only by donating to the OP will you get access to the download. Not exactly in the spirit of the community.
