[Q] Nook wont boot.. stuck in boot loop! - Nook Color General

On 1.0.1 I rooted using autonooter.. then I installed clockwordmod 3.0.0.5 selecting "nook old".. then I tried to boot into recovery and it keeps going to the page that says "touch the future of reading" with the logo, shutting off, turning on and going back to that page.. and so on..
Any help would be greatly appreciated!
[Update]
- Tried to run the solutions listed here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=914690
- Doesn't Work. Nook just turns on to "touch the future of reading" screen, shuts off, and turns back on to that page.. and continuously does that.. Tried to do a factory reset and the 8 restarts..
Any advice? Thinking of trying to bring it in to B&N to return. Would they know it was rooted? I can't even get past that screen

There should be a repair file on this forum. Did you by any chance, ever "format boot"? If so, this might be the culprit, as it removes the ability to enter CWR because the boot sector is modified.
It's worth a shot...

hey, thanks for your reply!
I don't think I ever did format boot.. i don't even know what that is.. hehe

Ever figure this out? I really don't want to go back to stock. I didn't format boot either.

Never mind - found it elsewhere. You have to use cwr-removal.zip and remove the recovery. It happens if you flash the recovery and then immediately go into recovery mode before rebooting.

My G1 will only boot up sometimes showing up the screen???

I have never encountered this issue... have been flashing roms for years.. on my windows phones and my G1 since it was possible..
The other day I went up update my phone to the latest CM ROM.. my phone finished and then I booted up the phone.. the screen was black.. i waited for a long time and not even the G1 screen showed up..
I booted again.. and same thing.. i booted again for days and tried getting into the recover with no luck..
I read someone had a simliar issue on here and they went into recover (though no screen or text shows up on screen) and proceded to hit alt w to wipe..i did that aswell and the next boot up the G1 screen showed up. I then did a complete wipe from there and began to install the new HTC recover and CM rom from scratch.. then same thing happend.. i kept getting the black screen...
I then tried to install the original SPL and install the original G1 rom and start all over.. i was able to install the original SPL (which I think is part of the issue) and then turned off the phone.. I placed the dreaimg in the sdcard and went to hit CAMERA and POWER.. and nothing shows up..
I can't for how many times i tried am able to get the phone to go into the install screen from holding down CAMERA and POWER..
I am able to restore the phone using the nanback up from the recover but since I installed the SPL it went away.. not sure if they are connected somehow.. so now i don't have those options either..
Can somebody help me with some ideas on how to fix this?
If you can't get into recovery? To me it looks like a brick phone.
As far as been here and read some post about not able getting into recovery or tri color screen not working as well and not getting any response from phone

I am able to get to the Amon Ra recovery.. and do things from there.. the problem is that when I reboot..it sometimes shows up the G1 and sometimes it stays black..
I tried reverting back to the original ROM by putting the dream on there at that point i noticed that when hold camera and power nothing happens..im' still able to reboot and go into Amon Ra recovery though..
Just an update.. i noticed that my phone only boots up properly if I slide out the keyboard before I press the power button to turn on the phone.. same thing applies when getting out of standby mode while the phone is on...

[Q] Stuck at the n splash screen

I have been running Froyo for a while. I decided to restore to stock and do some other stuff.... well I got back to stock but now my NC hangs at the big n splash screen and will go no further. What can I do now ??
Any ideas ?
PS. I can still boot to CWR if needed, but seems adb doesnt work atm.
If you can get back into CWR, then flash the stock image again. There may have been some issues the first time.
OR... there is a boot restore file on here somewhere. Did you happen to "format boot" by chance? If so, that might be the culprit.
Fixed it ... thanks : )

HELP!!!!!!! Stuck in boot loop on STOCK

Hi everyone,
I am honestly at a loss. I tried to flash back to stock using Odin (not the one click) because I was having multiple problems with my custom ROM. However, after Odin did it's magic (I got the green sign with PASS) my phone rebooted into the blue screen (Samsung recovery I assume) then I hit reboot phone now, it got stuck in a reboot loop! It won't go past the Galaxy "S" logo at all, or it flashes the "S" then the screen just goes black. Fortunately, I can still enter download mode but about nothing else, not even a recovery screen or anything. I am running a Rogers Captivate 2.2 (or at least I flashed back to stock 2.2 successfully according to Odin) but I can't actually check since I am on a reboot loop.
Can anyone PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE HELP?
Thank you so much!
Just reflash stock. Unless there is a good reason you are not using the one click odin I would use it

HELPPP!!! Stuck in Bootloop Nokia 8 TA-1004

I would like to ask some few solutions from expert people here. My phone was stuck in Boot loop for no apparent reason and cause. So, here's the chronology: I was playing Vainglory and it was still drafting heroes in ranked match. During that time, the phone just got freeze and unresponsive for several seconds. Then, it restarts and there we go. It starts boot loop cycle. I don't know what causes it.
How do I solve this? I need help, please. The Phone is Unlocked Bootloader and it is in root condition. As for the version, it was using 4.88B. I would require step by step detail in solving this boot loop before i decided to go to service center and have it fixed which is possible to remove Unlocked bootloader and root which I do not want that to happen.
Thank you so much in advance.
PS: After shutting it off for 30 min, I tried turning it back on. It does bring me to the home screen but then few seconds, it reboots again and causes boot loop. Nevertheless the case, once Powered by android logo came, I won't be able to bypass that.
Try to hold Volume up and Power while launching the phone - it will bring you into the recovery mode of android. From there you should wipe your phone data - sorry there's no viable solution for you, if it's a software bootloop then it should help you bring the phone to factory state and get rid of issues.

Sir, It doesn't show the recovery mode. It is like no recovery exist. It just shows Powered by android logo and then keeps restarting.
did you solve your issue? trying to reboot?
How did it happen?
and How did it solved? Did your phone start then?
I think from TWRP you choose to boot different slot.
So I think you have different Kernel-boot to another system-version

Nook HD (hummingbird) stuck in boot loop after botched ROM install

Several times, I tried (and failed) at installing CM on my Nook HD. It went through all of the motions of installing the ROM (no errors, nothing), but when I rebooted, it went straight back to stock with "Hi, welcome to your NOOK."
I thought maybe my version of CWM was too old. I finally found a newer version (6.0.4.9, I think). I flashed TWRP first and then tried to flash CM. This time it crashed in the middle of the installation! Now, it won't boot at all. It just shows the Nook logo, then goes to the Cyanoboot screen, then goes black, then back to Cyanoboot, and so on. It won't boot from the SD card, either. I tried holding N and power to get into TWRP, which was allegedly installed, but that doesn't work, either.
Every web page that I could find discussing the issue of bootloops says, "First, boot into recovery..."
So, what do I do if I can't boot into recovery? Or is there a way I haven't tried yet?
Okay, I was able to restore. I inserted a bootable SD card and held down the N key and the power button. It takes a few times to get it right. So, now I'm back to stock.
