Do we know if it is possible to modify the content of B&N update zip file so that we could use it to root the device for instance ?
Sorry to bother, eded, but I'm also on a free day. It would be good to finish that today.
Thanks
Go through all the steps manually with something like noogie. The reason TouchNooter can't do it is because to get the script to run requires the the system to boot, replacing the files while the system is active will cause the system to crash when you go to reboot it to complete the steps for Market. Because of this to install Gapps you have to use a method that doesn't require the system to be active like Noogie.
Another method which would allow us to add Gapps, is if someone completed a version of CWM for Nook Touch.
You mean, if the content of the zip is modified, it is not applied ?One of the first things I tried when I got my NST, no luck.
I'm certain it's doable, but some re-engineering of the update process will be needed to figure it out as they're not using the stock Android one.

But, if I burn touchnooter 1.6.24 on my sdcard and replace framework.jar and uRamdisk (as it is said here), it works for me, that's strange.
And +1 CWM would be very interesting
BTW, out of curiosity, I'm wondering, if I burn touchnooter 1.11.11 on my sdcard, I can't see any Nooter directory as in TN 1.6.24. How does it works ?

Dear GabrialDestruir, download link on the TouchNooter 1.11.20 is down (The requested URL /files/touchnooter-1-1-20.zip was not found on this server.) Help please
I borked my upgrade/root. I didn't follow the steps in order. I know
I erase/deregistered and it appears that the system stays 1.1.0. Good. Reapplied TouchNooter 1.11.20 and it craps out on Market. You Tube & Gmail sync fine. I get an error when starting Market after the TOU agreement. Cancel/Retry popup comes up and an infinity of retries does nothing. Tried it again (deregister/wipe, TN) and same result.
Anyone else getting a market error?
I tried to reapply 1.1.0 update but the NST would not take the update again. Can't find a method to downgrade or restore to 1.0.0.
Any thoughts?
Dave
Did you try this?

It worked for me (I only used the first file of the two) to go back to 1.0.0.
I just tried to root my daughter's new Nook Simple Touch (1.2 firmware) with the touchnooter-2-1-31 image written to a microSD card but it just hangs at the Touchnooter instruction screen forever. If I remove the SD card and try to reboot it hangs at the "Your Nook is starting up..." screen. Can anyone offer any advice? Thanks
This thread is deprecated, however you should be able to use GlowNooter on the normal TouchNooter (based on how B&N does their updates it should work for both). If anyone can confirm this I'll change the front post to properly link to the current update.
No it will not revert to stock. But if you go to my website you can download an mSd card Image that will restore everything back to the original factory firmware image. nook Root (Just click on the "nook Touch" link on the nav bar)
