broken SD card??? PLEASEEEE HELP!!!!!!

hey everyone, im not usually quick to ask for help but i am absolutely frustrated and stuck.
trust me ive searched and read everything i need to and its just not working for me
i have a 8gb micro sd class 6 card.... everything was fine and working perfect until i did a nandroid backup
then my card started having errors when repairing ext filesystems
so i put the card in my computer and formatted it.
then i deleted and repartitioned the card
then i did the command in the recovery console to fix the filesystem error
reflashed the radio image
none of that is working for me
i have another 4gb class 4 card and its working perfect for me
but ever since my 8gb did a nandroid backup, the roms wont load at all and i get stuck in a boot loop with the second htc splash screen
PLEASE HELP THIS IS DRIVING ME MAD!!!! thanks a bunch in advance!!
im using jacxhero v2.1
and i use cyan 1.4 recovery img

After you partition in Recovery, you don't need to fix filesystems... just exit Parted and type upgrade_fs in recovery console to upgrade to ext3.

this is a fault with the rom, the nandroid backup shouldnt cause a bootloop.
did you make sure the partitions are in this order?: FAT32, ext, linux swap?
can you see the card on your pc?

yes i did those 3 in order, ive done it several different times
i make sure that i do the upgrade_fs to convert to ext3
everything goes well when i partition and i can see the sd card in my computer. but for some reason i cant get past the splash screen with this memory card... my other one is working perfect, and so was this one until i did the backup thing
when i flash, it finishes and i reboot and get stuck after the HERO splash screen, the first time it shows the little android guy and then the screen goes black and i see the same spash screen again but with no android
what happens if i repair filesystems after i repartitioned??

it wont hurt to repair it, but it seems that the problem is more likely the hero rom. something is causing the rom to bootloop. did you wipe before you flashed? try that if you havent.
also, set up adb using the stickys in this thread, then use
Code:
adb logcat
when it starts to boot. that way i can see whats happening thats causing it to bootloop

yes i definately wipe before flashing. i still think its the sd card since my other sd card works with the same rom
ill try out the abd thing... ive seen posts about it but never really read into it.
thanks for the advice! ill be right back with the results
right now that i tried again, i cant get passed the tmobile g1 screen... seems to be stuck =[
the card was formatted and partitioned and then i booted (the rom is already flashed on here, i just took out my 4gb card and switched it out for this one so i shouldnt need to reflash should i?

now i deleted all partitions in recovery mode and rebooted....
i got both splash screens hero with android and then the htc splash... now it went to a black screen and has been like this for about 5 or 6 minutes
with my 4gb card it shows the two splash screens and then the black screen comes on for no more than 30 seconds and then the phone loads

well the hero builds put some apps and configuration files on the ext partition. if your 4gb card has those on it, then you probably wont have to.
Can you see the partitions on your computer?

no i dont know how to see partitions on my computer

if your using windows, format the whole card to FAT32 and put it in your card reader to see if it shows up as a removable drive.
what are you using to partition the card? Try flashing another rom that doesnt need extra partitions (such as cyanogen) and see if that rom can see your card as well.
if it doesnt detect it, then your card may have gone bad

=[ looks like i got a bad card....
i appreciate you two helping me out! wish it could have worked... i guess im just gonna pick up a new card

this rom wont even load when i dont have an SD card in it... and when the phone is loaded with my 4gb card, if i take it out, the phone freezes
weird....

like i said, important system files are on the sd card. you cant remove the sd card without crashing it. if you want a rom that you can use without an sd card, use JF or Cyanogen's rom. The hero roms have too much stuff to fit it all in the internal memory of the phone

what are those important files on the sd card?
are you talking about the partitions or something else?
if its something else like hidden files or something, then maybe thats what i need to fix my 8gb

they arent hidden, but thats what i was trying to say. after youve formatted your card, wipe and reflash the update. it will put those files on your card automatically.
they are located on your ext partition.
if you use adb, you can see them in
/system/sd/app_s
to get it to work, put the freshly partitioned sdcard into the phone.
press home+power to get to recovery. wipe the phone. flash the update (jachero2.1)
when it installs, it will find the ext partition and do it manually

[Q] Is my Nook Bricked beyond all hope

I was reading this thread [RECOVERY] Monster RootPack 0.7 / Clockwork Recovery 3.0.0.5 SD (1.1 Compatible!). But, since I am new to this forum I couldn't post there. I hope this is the right place to ask for help.
I upgraded my NC to 1.1.0 successfully. I put Autonooter 3.0.0 on a MicroSD card. With my NC off, I inserted the card and then plugged the NC into my PC. I got a black screen for over 5 minutes. It looked like nothing was happening, so, I disconnected the NC, removed the SD card and tired to turn the NC on. No joy, it won't turn on and won't boot at all. I think my Nook is bricked. Any ideas what went wrong?
I've read some other threads about similar problems. It seems there is a fix to get it back to stock (1.1.0). I hope the Recovery thread I mentioned above is where the answer lies. But, I'm a bit confused and don't want to make any more mistakes. I only have one 4GB SD card at my disposal right now.
My questions are as follows:
1. Is my NC bricked beyond hope of recovery?
2. If I follow the procedures in this post can I get it to boot from the sd card even though it won't turn on at all?
3. What is the difference between the Rootpack and the Clockwork Recovery Image?
4. This is the confusing part. Should I download the RootPack? Or, should I download a bootable Clockwork SD card (128mb, 1gb, 2gb, 4gb, 8gb)
5. Since I only have a 4GB card, what should I choose?
6. Should I opt for 1.0.1, or 1.1.0 where it was still working.
7. Can I get all of this on one 4GB card?
8. Is there anything else I should be weary of before starting this procedure?
If i have posted this in the wrong place, I am sorry. But, I hope someone can clear things up for me. Thanks.

This is the right place to ask general questions.
1. Most certainly not.
2. Yes, using a bootable CWR SD is the way to go.
3. Totally different. The Rootpack is the name given to a package that helps you root your Nook. CWR image is a recovery image. That means you can boot to this recovery utility and apply changes to you NC (like repairing stuff, making backups, etc.).
4. An image will adapt to the drive. If you have a 4GB SD and burn (dd) a 1GB image to it, your SD will suddenly present itself as a 1GB SD. If you format it with the right tool, your SD will be 4GB again. So don't panick, if it says 1GB after burning, it's jut "adapted to the image". You haven't lost any disk space.
5. 1GB would be enough, but you can go up to 4GB image with a 4GB.. It could sometimes be a problem to apply an image which is the exact same size as the drive. I would use th 1GB, which is plenty for what you are going to do.
6. That's up to you. Both should work.
7. Yes.
8. Just read threads exhaustively before attempting anything..
So what you need to do is read threads about this CWR Bootable img to learn how to burn it to your SD.
Then, find the appropriate .zip files to flash (apply) (1.1 recovery and 1.0.1 are available in dev section.
Copy them to root of SD.
Boot with the SD Card and apply zip files from SD.
If your NC should still have problems booting, you can also apply a boot repair zip file, that you will find on my Nook Color restore to stock tread in dev..
Sam

His Rootpack wont work on 1.1.0 You should have seen that in his instructions. It will only block 1.1.0 and fake it. You need to see this thread to fix your nook. It is 100% NOT bricked, just messed up atm. You can fix it tho. Read here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=949699

Thanks for thr quick reponse Sam. I'm at work now, but will be able to use your suggestions later this afternoon\tonight. So, if I get a 1gb CWR image on my 4gb sd card, plus the 1.1.0 zip file and put it in the root of the sd card, the Nook should boot up even though I can't turn it on now? How long typacally will it take to boot up? What should I expect to see?
I will post results after I try the procedure. Thanks again!!

Thanks Thiboi69. I have printed out the instructions from the link you sent and will follow them to the T. I'll post results later.

It will work. I have never heard of a 100%bricked NookColor to date. And I have read 1,000's of posts here over the past 4 months. IT is just your boot partition that is messed up and B&N made it check the sdcard first for a Boot partition, then fall back to eMMC. Thank you B&N !!!

I downloaded all the files, wrote them to my sd card, and put it in the Nook. When I connected the Nook to my pc, I got a messaage the the battery was too low to turn on. So, I took the sd card out, and put the Nook on charge. After a while, it turned on, booted up and when I checked my OS, I found that I had
version 1.1.0. Apparently, my attempt to root with autonooter 3, never got installed, partially or completely. And, my battery probably got to low to turn the nook on. So, I didn't need to use CWR after all. I apologize to all who have tried to help me. But, all replies were good and contained useful info.
Now, my question is: Should I try to use Autonooter 3 again, or is there an easier
(more foolproof) way to root v1.1.0?

I just got a nook last night with the sole intention of hacking it - and did so in a matter of minutes. Autonooter couldnt be easier! When you get to the part of putting the SD card in the nook and connecting it to USB to make it boot, just plug it in and go get a cup of coffee. Don't unplug or touch anything until it boots up by itself. At 1st I thought it wasn't doing anything as I didn't see a clockwork mod screen come up or anything, but just be patient and it'll tell you when it's done. Just make sure it's pretty well charged when you do it - mine was about 80% or so.
Honestly after less than a day of the rooted stock 2.1 Eclair OS, I'm ready to drop a fully customized Froyo or Gingerbread image on this thing. Autonooter it 1st and run it for a few days 1st and see what you think. I'm still learning the ins and outs of tinkering with this thing, but so far it seems much easier than the Epic and Moment I've been beating on. Seems pretty well unbrickable too thanks to the boot to SD 1st option B&N baked into this puppy.

Joe, I would recommend downloading the 1gb rootpack image and a restore to stock file. Make your bootable clockwork recovery image, place the resotre to stock file on the sdcard, turn your nook off, insert the sdcard, power on and flash the file. All this info and more can be found in my thread here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=949699

Thanks for your suggestion Riley, please take a look at my post # 7 above. Seemd my NC
had a low battery. When I charged it, all was ok. It booted up and I was back in 1.1.0.
But, I just now tried autonooter 3.0.0 again. When I pluged thr NC inyo my PC, I got some sort or warning message. I hit cancel and waited a few minutes. The message came up again. It said the device was not recognized. I unplugged, removed the card, and my fully charged NV won't turn on. And, windows explorer can not read the sd card. This is basically what happened yesterday to cause my panic. The sd card had all the files befor I inserted it into the NC. Now, it's unreadable and I can't turn on or boot the NC again.
Is it autonooter 3.0.0, or the card, or the Nook, or me?????

One correction to post # 10. I can read the sd card in windows explorer. But my NC won't turn on.

With sd card out of the Nook, I get a "Welcome to the Found New Hardware Wizzard"
What does this tell anyone about the condition of my Nook?

I am having a problem and don't really know what to do. When I start my NC its stops at the N screen and goes no further. I've tried a lot of the different ways to get it back to stock with no luck. When I try to write CWM to my SD card with win32 it either doesn't have enough room to put the stock file on the zip with it or when I open the SD card it says the card needs to be formatted. The file is a tr.gz or something like that is there a step between that I am missing or just download the CWM and write to SD using win32? I also tried adb with no luck. I am very new to rooting so any super dumbed down instructions would be greatly appreciated.

You can put the rom image to a separate SD card. Just swap it after you boot up from cwr. I did it before for flashing froyo to emmc.

Have you followed the restore-to-stock procedure outlined in this thread?
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=914690

Just a noobish advise!
After configure everything and become accustomed to some of the NC behaviors this should not matter, but I remember at my first attempts at rooting the NC, using a Win7 PC was much easier than using Win XP or iOS devices. Might fix your 'not recognized' problems, sd card recognition and formatting problems etc.

It has CWM on it. I can get it to recovery but it will not recognize the SD or not mount it and I go to mount it in the menu and it says something like can not mount SD card so I have been trying to do the CWM SD burn but I keep getting the above errors I am on a vista computer so I will try it on my windows 7 one and see how that goes. And the different SD card one I will try that as well after work thank you for the help.

[Q] Bricked, with Oddities

I went to install Phiremod v4 from the EXT4 CWR. It did something funky and wiped out my internal memory (dont know if its just boot or what.)
Oddly, before I was also using NF on a SD, but now it will not work either. I tried other SD cards, and other rom to boot from, with no luck.
When I power up, it is a blank screen. Oddly enough, when I power up using N+power, windows recognizes it as new hardware for a few seconds, but then fails.
Anything else I can do?
I can probably return it, since it seems there is nothing on the emmc, but want to tinker with it for a while.

I did try to, but it wont even boot from an SD card.
Trying again wont hurt, though.

Hold down the power button non-stop for over a minute straight. Then plug it in and hold it down again.
A few trys of this (mainly while plugged in) has always gotten me out of non boot. My computer shows the same things, even though my drivers installed.

My Nook will not turn on...
I'll bring it back to B&N and tell them the power button isnt working..
i've only had it for 3 days

When I dd'ed clockwork and then looked at it in GParted, it said nothing was there. But when I put it in my nook, it at least tried to boot this time. Then I tried NF again, but this time it wont fit on my SD for some reason.

Your sd image gets reduced due to the partition of clockwork. You can boot into the clockwork sd card, remove the card, (your nook will still be on and in clockwork) format the card via your computer, put the image you are going to flash, then insert the card back into the nook and flash your zip.
Edit: also make sure you're using the right booyabl we sd for your rom of choice. Nookie froyo requires ext3 format whereas cm7 needs ext4 format.

Odd, it got out of the Black screen for about a day, but I had trouble booting an sd card.
Now it is a permanent black screen (the screen is off, not just the color)

I was in the same boat as the OP the other day. Odds are there is nothing wrong with the device. Its almost next to impossible t obrick a Nook. Speaking for myself for whatever reason my bootable sdcard was hosed. I went and grabbed a buddies 1Gb card to test and after I redownloaded and burned a 1Gb bootable sdcard IMG all was good to go again. that said if you have a spare sdcard ( any size ) I'd downlaod the current 3.0.1.0 IMG and burn it to the sdcard. Once done toss the card in the device and power it on and it should boot directly into CWR off the sdcard. If it does power down and then move a ROM over to the sdcard and frie it up again so you can reflash it
Edit: Most current bootable sdcard IMG file can be grabbed from here Post#4

New Nook rotting issues

Hi guys,
This is my first time posting but I have lurked on the forum for a long time so I first want to thank all of you for all the great information that has helped me root my phones, my first nook, customs roms and all. You guys are amazingly smart and makes me wish I played a little less sports in school and studied a little more. So again, thank you for all the sharing of knowledge on this forum.
So to my problem. I have had a Nook for months, was running Cm7 and life was grand. It was on my dresser and my dog knocked it off and split the screen right down the middle. I went 2 days ago and purchased a new one. With the issues of the locked bootloader on the Nook Tablet I decided to stay with the Color that I had already grown to love.
I have been trying to root it but keep running in to problem after problem. I downloaded win32 and half the time when I try to put the CWR image on the SD I get error 8. I have found many ways on here to fix that but it still happens HALF the time. I am running it as admin and running the oldest version. The other half of the time it will look like it is burning to image and says it is done. But after it finishes my computer will not let me open the SD device to put the zip files on it. When I try it says that it must format the SD card to open it. Every time.
Also, just to check if everything is working right, after it says it has finished burning the image on the SD I have put it in the nook to make sure it boots in to CWR, it does not. It boots normal.
My nook is version 1.2.0, I use the correct file for my SD card size, I format it using Panasonic SD Formatter and I cross my fingers, click my heels 3 times and wish upon a star. Nothing is working.
I believe the issue is my computer. I am running 32bit Vista on an older computer. I believe last time I rooted my first nook I used the laptop, but that computer has since exploded in a ball of fire and is no longer available to me.
I'm stressed. I am at the point where I would be willing to pay for somebody to mail me a boot ready SD card.
Any advice is appreciated and thank you in advance.

I assume
+ you have 2 NC, one that been knocked off by your dog and one is new, v1.2.
+ you want to run CM7 off the uSD
am I right?

Correct. I have the broke one with a non working screen and the new one which is 1.2.0
I do not want to run Cm7 off the SD but install it to internal memory. I want to flash CM7 on it and for it to never know it used to be a nook.

Have you considered the possibility you have a bad sdcard on your hands? Thats what it sounds like to me, either that or a bad card reader.
Also try redownloading the image file and maybe pointing us to the link your using so we can verify its correct. I actually just mounted the usb once I was in CWM and transferred the zip files I needed over then.

I have considered that. I have used multiple SD cards, I am trying a different new one at this moment as well. It very well could be the card reader, if that is the case then I am in trouble because there is not much I can do about it.

Here is the version of Win32 I was using.

Trying that one now. Thank you.
Edit.
I downloaded the different win32 and it wrote the image right away. I then went to open the card to pull the zip files on it but again when I try to open it I am told that I need to format it before I can use the disk.
This is frustrating.
Once again though I want to say I am very appreciative of all the help.
Edit Edit:
I put the SDcard in to the nook just to see if it would load CWR from the SD and again it did not and simply booted as normal.

Are you running Win32 as Admin?
---------------------------------
Sent from my LG Optimus V using Tapatalk

I am running it as admin. I learned that lesson the first time I rooted. I am pretty sure the issue is my computer. I've updated my drivers but I am nit sure why there is such an issue. The computer is more than 5 years old so there could be a number of issues.
At this point, I would be more than happy to pay somebody to send me an sd card and return it to them. I travel often for work and it is such a geeat tool for my business and I did not realize how hard my every day work would be without it.

Once I write the image file my computer will not let me open the disk to place the zip files. If I could get past that it would be ok, I just can not figure out why it keeps wanting to format the disk before it will let me open it after writing the CWR image file.

Yep the issue is the burning if the image. Make sure you use one of the USB ports on the back of your machine when burning the image. I've found that the ones in the front can cause issues depending on the machine used.

It sounds crazy, but try formatting the card in your Nook first. I think it might solve your problem.

Alright we got everything working now!
So I tried a few different sd cards. I would use the size of image for the size of SD card. 2gb and 8gb. I formatted the 8gb and used only the 1gb image and it worked no problems.
I had followed some instructions that ended up giving me the black screen of death when it would start to boot up. I reformatted and flashed 1.0.1 stock nook, then re-flashed CM7 and all is well now.
Thanks guys!

[Q] Internal storage and ext sd wont read.

Ok first off I have read through a lot of different forums from here and different websites. Could not find a solution.
MY cappy was rooted and I was running cm9 on it for a while working great.. decided to give cm 10.1 a try. Well it worked for about 2 1/2 months. doing the updates that came out every day. Then the other I was playing a game on it. I stoped the game unplugged the phone from the wall charger went outside to smoke and went to check the phone. It was a black screen where it was semi light up though.
I of course tried hitting the power about 15 times no response. So I took out the battery and put it back in. It rebooted into recovery. So I hit reboot phone. Went back into recovery. Went in cleared cache and dalvik cache rebooted. Went back into recovery, so from there I went to install zip from sd card. there was nothing on sd card.
I then put it into download mode and using odin I brought it back to stock 2.3.4 after odin had suceeded it installed everything on phone. But it came with error no internal storage found. It booted fully. So then I tried heimdall one click it then did the same thing I cleared cache and did a factory reset. IT rebooted fully.
It only works when I have my ext. SD card in the phone though. If i pull my ext sd card out it will go into a boot loop. IF i put my ext sd card into another phone and back to my cappy Itll stay in boot loop. I have formatted sd card put it back into the phone and rebooted. and same thing. bootloop. So I then have to go through the process again to get it semi running. It wont read ext or internal sd card when phone is fully on.
So is there any way to get it to read internal storage again? Or even ext. I dont understand why it will run with the ext.
Any help will be appreciated Thank you.

Your issue is kinda odd, the only thing I can think of is the EU bug but that's on ICS and you said you were on JB. Either way, could be worth looking into, there's a thread for it in here.

Well I was on cm 9 then went to cm 10.1 4.2 I have no clue I looked into the EU bug tried to fix it no luck. I can put the sd card on it and flash the stock rom and kernel and it will run just without it reading internal or external sd card

the external sd card has probably got your .androidsecure hidden folder on it, possibly more. if your phone had the eu bug, then CM10 recognizes that and switches the mounts.
if you boot the phone, go into terminal emulator, type su, then type mount, and post the output, it would probably give us a clue.

No the android secure was on the phone, The external sd card was never in my phone but I was trying different things and if i format my sd card put it in the cappy then do the flash. It will work but as soon as I turn the phone off and put the sd card in another phone, It has no files. but when I put it in my laptop it says there is only 5 gb on it but it is an 8gb memory card. Then I have to format twice to get my full memory from it on another phone.
