Hello
I have had this Nook Color, BNRV200 (2013) for a long while, running CM11 off of uSD Card.
Upon receiving an email from B&N about the latest security update 1.4.4, I decided to give it a try.
Removed my uSD card with CM11 and rebooted to stock OS.
Booted to Stock fine, all my login info is correct, and connected to Wi-Fi.
Hoping the Nook would pick up the security update, I did reboot back to stock. Nothing.
Inserted blank uSD card, connected to PC with the original cable, copied the downloaded 1.4.4.zip to the card, rebooted. Nothing.
Tried copying the zip into internal storage, rebooted, nothing.
In the Settings, it shows stock firmware 1.3.0. If I remember correctly, long time ago, I had it upgraded to 1.4.3 (the zip I have saved).
Any suggestions as to force the upgrade?
Does it require incremental upgrades? What would be the next firmware version?
Thank you for any input in advance.

Hi guys, i really need some help here. I bought my NC at the beginning of this month and I'm pretty sure the version is 1.1.0
I wanted to restore my rooted NC back to stock but i accidentally restore it to 1.0.1 instead.
While running on 1.0.1
1) My device can't be registered. I think since I've restore it to 1.0.1, they won't allow me to register my device.
2) I've done the skip out of box experience and tried to do an update to 1.1.0 using the sideload update file (by connecting it to my pc and transferring the file directly)but nothing seem to work.
Can someone please help me?
Does anyone has the stock 1.1.0 file in full which I can try to load it in through clockwerk ?
Yeah, I'm kind of in the same boat. I tried to make a bootable sd card with froyo on it, and I ended up corrupting my Nook's system somehow. I followed the process to restore my nook to stock, but it went back to 1.0.1. Previously, I had updated to 1.1.0.
Now I would like to go back to 1.1.0 and use Autonooter 3.0 to reinstall eclair. But I wasn't able to sideload the 1.1.0 firmware.
Anybody have any tips? Thanks.
i've managed to reset it 1.2.0 instead. What i did was to skip out of the box effect in order to skip the need to register. I connected my NC to a pc and transfer the 1.2.0 update manually. After this ejecting, after a few mins it will start to auto update.
I'm having this issue on three separate Nook Color's that I've upgraded to dual boot with B&N stock 1.3 and CM7.1 following this guide:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1275859
(and I would post in there, but as you can see, I have less than ten posts )
After the whole install process I can boot into CM7 and the stock OS just fine, but I find that I can't download apps from B&N market on the stock OS side. It just sits at "downloading" for forever and doesn't do anything.
any thoughts or run into this as well?
were the nooks registered with bn and downloading fine before the dual boot installation? There are reports that registering with bn after moving to dual boot doesn't work properly.

I have this issue too - though with just apps. The books themselves downloaded just fine.
They all worked fine before I started with the whole upgrade and I re-registered them all after the re-partitioning step (the part where you change it from 5/1 blue-dot back to the old 1/5 partitions).
And yes, the books are downloading fine. It's just the apps that I'm having an issue with.
Having the same problem as op. Trying to install apps on stock side from b&n but they just sit there saying "installing"
I had the same problem. I got it to work by turning off the wifi after it says installing and then turning it back on. It usually began to download after that.

Not having any luck! Any one else have any ideas on what to do?
I just bought a Nook ST Glow. I just tried the nooter and the nookmanager.
I'm positive I followed the directions to the Tee. I even bough a second card reader in case that was an issue.
I booted the imaged msd card containing the nookmanager image. I booted into it correctly, then rooted it.. first time through the uramdisk failed .. so i did a factory install .. then tried it again.
this time everything worked fine as the root script ran. exit. removed the sd card. then i get the regular nook boot sequence as if its a new factory boot.
i did this several times and get the same issue. this is a firmware 1.2.1. i just don't get it.
i was so excited and bought this eink because the battery life is 2 weeks plus. i'd like to be able to check email and read news and possibly other bookstores.
can someone please help me? is this hopelessly strange?
yes, i did use winimage.. i'm sure the image appears fine.. because it boots just fine into nookmanager. did b&n include new protection mechanisms to make it unable to unlock.. i'm completely stumped.
please please!!
Hello,
I have a nook color with version 1.4.0
I rooted it when I bough it few years ago and didn't use is much since then.
Today I reset it to factory default with the 8 times restart interruption method.
It works ok but I'm not getting the version update through the WIFI and when copying the zip file nothing happens as well.
I tried to copy an old update, 1.4.1 but it didn't help.
Any suggestions?
Hi guys,
Searched quite a bit and cannot find how to update this. Running CyanogenMod version 11-20140117-UNOFFICIAL-hummingbird (Android 4.4.2). Rooted long ago and haven't updated anything on the tablet in forever because it was just how I liked it. I could boot into the standard Nook OS and view the Nook eShop (or whatever they call it now), or I could boot into Cyanogen Mod and run standard Android apps.
However now because they updated the Nook OS to include TLS 1.2 some many months ago (Transport Layer Security 1.2) I cannot load any of the Nook shop stuff without this update. When I try to update it within the Nook OS it tells me there's an update, proceeds to download it, tells me it will restart and apply the update, but then it never updates and just comes back into the Nook OS as if it just dropped the update. I used AFN to dual boot from the SD card - wondering if there's something in this setup that freezes out updates from happening.
Anyone have any ideas how I can get the TLS 1.2 update to take?
Thanks for ANY help... Really appreciate it!
So, I answered my own question by taking a chance. I pulled the SD card out and just booted directly into Nook OS and let it take the update that way. Rebooted after update (no SD card inserted) and the update took. Put the SD card back in and booted into Nook OS to make sure everything was still ok - no issues. Rebooted into CyanogenMod after that and still no issues.
I'll leave this here in case someone in the future comes looking for a similar question/answer.
Just a guess, but most of the B&N devices cannot be updated if rooted. So you might need to unroot, do the update, then root again.
Umm, I'm guessing you just overlooked my follow up post/reply up there ^^^ where I said I figured it out. It did update, even with being rooted.
