    Nook Color with Froyo/Netflix

    Yes, it will work for you. Just make sure you use the correct rooting method - as you said above it should be Manualnooter and not Autonooter, which was for the older B&N firmware 1.0 and 1.1 (Eclair). I do not know the process for using the Manualnooter, but it is detailed on the xda threads...

    Power Supply for international travel for NC

    Yep...you just need a plug adapter, which you can pick up for a few bucks down at at the Walmart. Make sure you just get an adapter...you don't need a power converter.

    Having hard time connecting Bluetooth GPS receiver with CM7

    Download a free app from the market called 'Bluetooth GPS'. Start this first and connect to your paired GPS device. Once this is running and connected, you should be able to use just about any program that uses GPS data.

    Can't get past Touch the Future of Reading

    From your description above it appears that you do not have a bootable SD card, but rather booted into CW Recovery from within ROM Manager installed on your device. I am not sure why this should matter, but in general the directions for flashing CM7 (Gingerbread) request that you make a...

    Water in/under screen?

    If you would like to try and return your device, you can easily return the device to the stock B&N firmware/ROM and they will be none the wiser. There are lengthly descriptions on how to do this both here and at xda: Dummies Guide to Fixing 'My Nook Won't Boot' - xda-developers...

    New NookColor won't update to 1.1.0

    Please Convince/Help Me

    You can run the custom builds either from an SD card or internal memory. If you have a fast SD card, then it seems from people who run one of the custom ROMs things will work well booting from the SD. However, the general consensus is that all of the custom builds run better/faster from the...

    GMail crashing, causing mini-reboot

    I have the same setup, and this exact thing has happened to me twice...most recently last night. I eventually just ended up rebooting the device a few times, and eventually the GMail app started working correctly again. I haven't changed anything with my setup, so don't know why it seems to do...

    Rooted Nook Stock - Add apps to Extras menu?

    As jeregano says...they appear in the extras menu after you reboot your device. You have to completely power down and reboot...not just sleep and wake.

    Getting Adobe Flash to Work On The Nook Color

    As far as I know, nobody has been able to get Flash 10.1 working on the Nook with the stock Eclair (Android 2.1). However, it is possible to get an older version of Flash working in Eclair. I have installed it, and it works well. Of course, all recent Flash content on the Web requires Flash...

    Most stable option?

    The stock Eclair (Android 2.1) is by far the most stable build available. Both Froyo and Honeycomb are still in early stages. They will eventually get the kinks worked out, but there are a lot of issues with compatibility and stability with either of these builds. Although some of the users...

    Need help badly

    It sounds perhaps like you should have done some more reading before jumping ahead to Froyo installation. When you install Froyo, you are installing a whole new operating system...not just upgrading the stock Eclair. It is as if you were to install Linux on a computer that used to run...
