How to Get Android 2.2 on a Nook
Barnes & Nobles' Nook Color natively runs the Android operating system. Barnes & Noble releases updates to the operating system periodically, such as the Android 2.2 update. The Nook 1.3 update contains the upgrade to Android 2.2, also known as Froyo. Your Nook should prompt you to upgrade your device automatically, but if it doesn't, you can manually apply the update.
