Classic "Invalid Update"

shrktank · 02-14-2010, 06:11 PM

I went to softroot my nook today. I downloaded the files and renamed the signed_bravo_update.1.0.0.dat to signed_bravo_update.dat

I followed the directions. However when the nook restarts in the bottom right corner it says "Invalid Update"

Any ideas? I am using a Mac, which should not matter. Also I have a microsd card installed in the unit already, but I unmounted both drives prior to reboot.

Thanks for your assistance

Hmmmm, it should not even restart. It should directly do the update, right after ejecting.
I only can speculate. But I'd say, download again, might be corrupted.

Re-downloaded and it seemed to work. I also removed the microsd card just in case.

Now to part two!

BTW: You don't need step 3 anymore. You still can use ADB, but you don't have to. Everything you need already is integrated into the modified 1.2 firmware.
