Hello,

I have a Nook HD and it has been rooted with CM version 10.1-20130615-unoffical-hummingbid - android version 4.2.2. A few times the device has said there are updates that I should download. In settings, I see two updates available CM-10.1.3-RC2 and cm-10.1.3. My question can I just hit the download button and it will update automatically? Which one should I download? Will I lose everything that has been downloaded and I will have to reinstall everything (not a big deal)?

Thanks in advance for the guidance!

It depends on how you installed it originally. That is an old unofficial version. And it depends on whether you installed the internal CWM recovery, which I doubt since your ROM is that old.

The one you want to install is the CM10.1.3, that is the latest. If you install it over your old ROM, all your apps and settings will stay.

I recommend not using the auto update since so much is not known. But you should be safe to do it manually. Just go to the CM site and download the hummingbird CM10.1.3 zip and flash it with your bootable CWM SD.

Thanks Leapinlar - can you please provide the link to CM 10.1.3 and the instructions to install over my old ROM?

Go to the dummies guide for installing CM10.1. Follow the directions there for updating.

Leapinlar - I went to the dummies thread and found the link to the 10.1.3 stable version. But the updating instructions in the dummies thread says to update via the auto update in settings. You recommended that I don't do that and install 10.1.3 over the existing one. Do I just download the 10.1.3 and then boot into recovery and install 10.1.3 that way???

If you installed CWM to internal memory per the instructions in that thread, then you can use the CMupdater. If you have not, then download the CM zip manually and boot to your bootable SD and install it.

I believe I installed CWM to internal memory - is there a easy way to check this before I try the updater?

Just try the update, if it days install failed, it means it is not installed and then do it manually.
