How Do You Know...
That the only change is better browsing/wifi? There may be other "unannounced" tweaks. It's no big deal to wipe/reset

I don't plan to wipe, re-root, and re-configure for every minor update that comes along with the hope of there being some hidden gems. If you discover unannounced tweaks please let us know. Last edited by SCION; 12-18-2010 at 11:24 AM. |

With a good back up program reinstalling all your apps shouldn't be an issue. From there it's a matter of getting preferences back in place (and with a good back up program even those can be easily added). Just saying...or rather I think I'm trying to convince myself that I need to wipe, update and then reroot. |

I'm not sure why you're pointing this out. My response was directed to Noah who was inquiring about those who rooted already. And I re-addressed it in post #18.

Let us know if the new root fixes the "Browse in Store" issue.
This is a feature that allows you to read a book for up to one hour in a local B&N. Those with original root are no longer able to access this feature. We can connect to the store WiFi and access the Internet with no problems. We can't read books for up to an hour. |

New out of the box process.
So, let's say I purchased a second NC, and am just taking it out of the box. I assume it has 1.0.0 as it was manuf/shipped prior to the 1.0.1 update. So, I'll need to go through the usual activation process, and then when B&N activates the auto-update, the NC will likely update itself to 1.0.1, and then perform the new automated nooter process.
Or, if the automated B&N update isn't yet active, I could download and install the update prior to auto-nooter, and then use the most recent auto-nooter. That sound about right? (Although not stated, I can't help but wonder if there were some improvements in battery life that may be coming along with the wi-fi improvement) |

That's my understanding as well.

Thanks. The thing that concerned me, was firing up the new NC, and having it auto-update, leaving me with the "manual" nootering option only. I'd prefer to use the auto-nooter, and now that it's fixed for the update, I guess that should work fine.

I'm seriously considering it, my NC is being a real pain about connecting to/staying connected to WiFi.
At least the new AutoNooter script includes stuff like the Market which I had to do manually the first time around. And I haven't loaded too many apps yet, so re-installing those won't be a big deal. |

Someone who does it, please report on how much fun it is to unroot & reroot.
Thanks. |
