Questions on Flash

mariel9898 · 02-20-2011, 09:38 PM

So I rooted my NC - yeah! Could not have done it without the postings of many of you so thanks!

Does anyone know if Flash will work on a rooted NC or if we have to wait for a major upgrade? I'm a newbie so bear with me - I rooted using autonooter 3.0 but Flash does not run which I guess is normal. Is my Nook now running Android 2.2? I have a Droid 2 Global which I just bought a few weeks ago and it's running Android 2.2 and I was able to download Flash for that. But Flash doesn't even show up in the Market with the Nook which means it can't be used.

Any enlightenment would be be appreciated.

No, the stock rooted Nook ROM is Android 2.1

Nookie Froyo is Android 2.2 but you won't get the Nook-based BN apps if you use it (nor read-in-store, etc). It runs somewhat slow from SD and although you can install it to internal memory, that's more of a project.

Thank you zartemis.

Now what happens when B&N come up with an update? Will it somehow unroot the Nook or cause other problems if it's done automatically?
