If a MR is labelled "rollup" then it will include any prior MRs. I think this happens 100% of the time.

Hotfixes do not include prior hotfixes, so you would have to install those in order.

Google or BB Maps won't reroute you if you get off course, Telenav will. I find the downside to any of the BB-based navigation products is that you can't be on the phone while using the navigation.
