HI; I have an old Nook ST with the 1.0.0 firmware - I rooted it last year.
I'm wondering whether it would be worth updating to the latest firmware and re-rooting? Or are there no benefits to be gained?
If this is answered elsewhere, perhaps someone could point me to a link?
Thanks!

first time using this site so i apologize in advance if this question has already been answered. I am currently running leaked build .588 GB and would like to get the new OTA installed without whiping the whole phone.
What would be the best way of installing the latest update without having to lose everything?
Thanks
CHECK HERE
Hey guys sorry its been a long time on the SGS thread. I wanted to ask something quickly (need a quick response for my friend)
What is the latest OFFICIAL stock U.K (via Kies) firmware out for i9000? is it 2.3.3? or is 2.3.4 out yet?
And also has there been a final final stable version of Cynogenmod7 out for SGS too?
Thanks don't have time right now to search through threads since I'm out of the country.
cheers
Read the latest news on GSMArena. 2.3.3 is official current version from Kies
Unrooted my tab and trying to get it back to the latest official version, but I'm having loads of trouble. Please help. Thanks!
My model number is A500, Android version is 3.0.1, kernel version is 2.6.36.3-00001-g44a8bac and build number is Acer_A500_1.145.01_COM_GEN2
This is the tab that best buy had on sale a few weeks/months on sale. Only 8GB of on board storage.
I have found threads with official updates, but don't know which is safe to install. They are all the same version but have different build numbers so I don't know which build number corresponds with my tab
I think I know the answer to this already, but can I jump from 3.0.1 to 3.2.1?
Anyways please help. I do appreciate it.
Thanks!
EDIT: 99 views and no replys? Do you guys not know the answer or are just being jerky? This is seriously my first post let alone question on the acer threads. I usually get things pretty easily, but I am having trouble on this one so it's not like I'm being lazy or asking a stupid question. Can someone help either by providing some answers or let me they don't know how to fix this??
Thanks

Not sure if you're still with us -
interested in knowing why you have not rec'd any OTA before now -unless you've been rooted from the start like i was when i got mine!!!
you also have to be stock, as in factory stock! the update checks a whole lotta stuff before it will install . If the system doesnt stack up the update will fail. So if you have deleted or frozen bloatware apps they will need to be restored, along with modded build props etc. factory data reset and full wipe fixes that problem, but Most people want to keep their data if they can and isn't an option. The update itself should leave everything in place. Mine did.
u need a Gen_2 build. I'm not familiar with your build number or upgrade path for 1.145, but you should receive an OTA for 3.1, 3.2 and the latest 2 for 3.2.1.
if u just wanna install one of the updated custom stock roms with root or cwm, you should be fine with any build and yes you can go straight to 3.2.1 from 3.0.1, but no OTA with these roms

This is a known issue and too many reasons to list. But, basically you are not 100% or it thinks that (checksums different) etc.
So, just flash directly to 3.2.1 GEN2
Mods please close. I was able to fix the issue
I was rooted and had to flash to 3.0.1 or 3.1 before unrooting with the iconia apk. Then I used the acer recovery tool to flash stock recovery. But after flashing stock recovery and unrooting I couldn't get any OTA updates. I re-read some the posts and manually updated to 3.2 after decrypting the zip. After updating I checked for new OTA updates and sure enough found both. Now I'm back to stock 3.2.1. Patiently waiting for ICS
Glad you got it working.
Has anyone been able to find the latest version of the ATT Nougat S7 Edge firmware? I took the OTA earlier this week but would like to have a backup of the software. The version I have updated to is G935AUSC4BQE1
Or am I asking too soon? I know they post the latest on this area of the forums, but was just wondering if anyone has seen it yet. I have checked the sammobile and android file host, but no luck.
Thanks
I'm new to the tablet upgrade process and I'm looking for guidance.
Details...
- GT-N8010 purchased in Canada
- I believe the Android version is 4.1.2 (Have to check)
- Can't update certain apps as a newer Android version is required
- I don't believe I need a version greater than 4.4.2, but I'm willing to upgrade even higher if the firmware is stable.
Can someone explain to me in layman's terms, what I need to do to improve the usability of this tablet with a newer version of the Android OS?
For example,...
What info besides GT-N8010 and 4.1.2 do I need from my tablet to ensure it is compatible with a newer Android version?
Can purchased Play Store apps compatible with the newer version be downloaded and installed in the same typical fashion?
Are there any potential country or localization issues where general usability and apps are concerned?
Did I miss anything?
Any help is appreciated.
Thanks, Steve.
No response? The tablet worksgreat just the android version is too old. Damn capitalism
