I dragged the bravo 1.0 file, my Nook downgraded to 1.1. Then i went ahead to drag the modified 1.2 file to Sim. Nothing happened. I thought maybe it's a problem with the timing of my button presses - hold down the start button on top, hold right side page turn button etc.
Now thinking about it, i believe it may also be because there is a defect in my Nook. The metal thing that holds the sim card is loose - I actually fixed it wiith scotch tape. Otherwise the Nook keeps telling me there is no Sim. The last 2 times when the system went to the legit 1.2, the Nook would tell me there is no Sim when actually the scotch tape is there holding the card in place. I have to open the back, refix and then it's ok. So perhaps tonite, before dragging the file, I will re-affix the tape. Fingers crossed!
Sigh - i toyed with sending it back but it seems a small thing when scotch tape does the trick!
What I don't understand is, why your nook downgrades to 1.1 instead of 1.0.
Maybe the file on the server isn't the right one? I'll send you a PM, so you can download the one I've used.
