That's what I thought but I am not sure. I am not about to test out the 1.0.1 nooter on the new update. Has anyone tried re-rooting with success after installing the 1.1.0 update?

Ok for those that want to unroot and reroot after applying the 1.1 update...I would wait. It looks like they are working on a new auto nooter for the 1.1 over at xda, but they don't have one yet. If your nook is in good working condition and rooted just hold off on updating to 1.1
Those that are not rooted just follow the B&N instructions to manual update or wait for it over the air.
If you want to block the update it is located in the useful info and rooting stickie.

So is the otacerts.zip renaming defeating the 1.1 update? That's all I've done to mine, and so far it's not been updated. Do I need to do more?

Alright I have a question. I am not going to update myself, but there was this question in another thread....if one does not have CWR, but are rooted and want to manually load the 1.1 update, would it be better for them to factory restore first, then install 1.1 update or just run the update and break root then re root. Isn't a factory restore required somewhere in there? Sorry about the run-on sentences
I don't see how either would work, end result would be the same. You would have an un-rooted, or broke root NC with 1.1.

I believe that will stop the ota update. Installing clockwork recovery and making a backup may be a good idea. Read the how to on that carefully though if u do that.

Stelv, I seem to be stuck myself. My attempts to re-root have failed.
Guess I could re-install CWR, and restore myself back to 1.0.1.
Sorry to here that : ( I guess if people get stuck in 1.1 without root they could do a factory reset right? That will roll them back to 1.0 and then they could re-root?

I guess some people could, I prefer to use my backup if I can. I just need to get CWR re-installed. But yes factory resets always work.

Well looks like I spoke too soon, can't re-install CWR. So..... I will have to factory reset back to 1.0.0, re-root, install CWR, and then restore my backup.

You're like the scrubbing bubbles comercial "We work hard, so you don't have to-o-o-o-o-o-o-o!" Much appreciated.
Anyhow, I would personally vote against attempting this for rooted users - you lose more than you gain. I did the "edit build.prop" method to hopefully avoid an OTA update. This method does a great job at tricking the nook's OS into thinking it's been updated. But no one's sure the OTA process will go for the fake.

I would hold off on updating for now. You will loose root. I don't believe there is a solid method for re-rooting after the update to 1.1 yet. If you really want to update there is a method posted here http://www.androidtablets.net/forum/nook-color-technical/7127-rom-nook-color-v1-1-0-pre-rooted.html but you need CWR first. I would just hold off for now.
