Restoring ?

I'm currently running phiremod nook V3 found here(followed the instructions too):
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=954902
I'm trying to get the OC kernal installed but can't get adb to recognize my nook. I'm guessing this might have to do with me not hooking my nook up to install the correct drivers.
Can I use this guide to get my internal partition back to stock software?

Thanks for helping a NC noob out.

Does your Nook boot at all? Or does it just stay on a black screen?

Go there for help.

Thanks for the quick responses. Im currently still running phiremod. No problems with it yet. Just flashed the app fix.
I more curious if I went by those steps I mentioned above if I could get back to stock.

Yes, they would work, burning an SD card, and copying the 1.0.1 (or whichever version you want to restore to) zip file to the SD card, and flashing that.
As for the OC kernel, Dalingrin has a .zip file that you flash from Clockwork just like how you installed phiremod. You'd want the one that is for CM7.

So I was looking at the right thing. D'OH!
So from my reformatted SD card I'll download this to root of SD with CWR
-Froyo and CM7 Only
DOWNLOADS:
eMMC:
Froyo and CM7 (eMMC installations only) CWM update: http://www.multiupload.com/IJK50K41GG
Power NC on
Install from SD
Select file and install
Remove SD
Reboot?
EDIT: Do I unzip that file or leave it as is?
Many thanks.

Do not unzip. Copy that zip onto your SD card that has CWM burned to it. The actual process of flashing it takes only a few seconds, not as long as flashing the whole ROM takes.

Got it! Thanks again for clearing things up for me. Things are a little different than my dx.

[Q] Gingerbread on SD card?

I have seen all the instructions for putting Gingerbread on the internal memory.
However, I would like to put in on an SD card and boot from that.
I have done this with Froyo and Honeycomb but I don't see files or instructions to allow me to do that with Gingerbread.
1. Is there a Gingerbread image I can burn to an SD card and boot from that?
2. If not, why not, when the other versions have that capability.

there's a gingerbread cm7 sd image in the development forum that I'm using right this second. Works fine for me so far

Can you give me the link to the Gingerbread image you mentioned please

[Q] Gapps problem in verygreen's CM10 for Nook HD+

Hello,
I've scoured the internets and the forum to no avail.
After what can only be described as an ordeal, I finally got verygreen's CM10 to boot from an SD card for my Nook HD+
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2032364
However, I cannot get gapps, which is the whole reason one would switch to cm10.
I also could not get adb to ever work, so I just put the zips onto the sd card directly (not the boot partition, but the CM10SDCARD partition), and then loaded recovery mode.
Then I mounted the sd card. Then install zip from sd card. Then choose zip from sdcard. Then I choose the gapps zip.
Then
E:Can't open /sdcard/gapps-jb-20121011-signed.zip
(bad)
Installation aborted.
I don't know what the problem is. I know there were a lot of problems getting CM10 on there to begin with, but now there is no problem.
Which gapps was I using? Xda people pointed me to http://goo.im/gapps/gapps-jb-20121011-signed.zip which is where I got it from.
Please any help or advice.
Thanks,
DG

i suspect a corrupted gapps zip file. perhaps it didn't download fully, or didn't transfer fully to your microsd card ?

Yes, I agree. Download the gapps file directly to your device and then install via CWM. Sometimes PC antiviral software will corrupt a download on the PC.

Thank you both. So, I downloaded gapps directly to the internal memory. Could you advise how to go from there in CWM? Is it mounting the emmc, or the rom? Then is it choose .zip from internal card? It can't mount the emmc...I don't know if there is something I need to do first.

No, not to internal memory, to sdcard. Copy now from emmc to sdcard. Then you can flash with cwm.
Edit: BTW, I meant to download with CM10, not stock.

I saw where this was posted, almost verbatim as how you mentioned it.
Does anyone out there ACTUALLY have experience with this happening?
In the 13 years of working on this stuff (tinkering with gadgets, etc) I have never experienced this.

Update:
Today, I finally got it going. Downloaded gapps from CM and it installed like a charm. Now I've got a pretty darn good android tablet for the price. Thanks leapinlar, much appreciated.
abense, i'm, also skeptical that it was actually my antivirus software. I would imagine the software would prevent the download entirely as opposed to just corrupting it. However, it did work when downloading from the nook itself.

Look at this exchange below. He kept getting corrupt files on download until he turned off his bitdefender.

gapps from sdcard for HD
Might be a dumb question but...
I used OP's auto-install version of his HD version of Verygreen's HD+ CM10 sdcard. It installs CM10 to the sdcard no problem. Works like a charm. My Nook HD runs CM10 from the card great. But no gapps.
Would this method you've described work for me? Is there an easier way I'm just missing?
If I load gapps to internal memory, do I then mount the sdcard in CWM and flash gapps to the sdcard that way?

The install from internal memory option is broken in the SD versions of CWM.
Boot to CM10, browse to goo.im and download gapps-jb-20121011-signed.zip to sdcard. Then use the power menu to boot to recovery and choose install zip from SD, then choose zip from SD. It will probably be in downloads folder.

Thanks. I don't remember seeing goo.im in the apps, but I wasn't really looking. I've used it before in other circumstances. I'll take a look when I get home. Thanks for the help.

Thanks. Never realized it was a web site. I always used goo manager from the app store. Should have realized it was pulling from a web site. I've rooted a bunch of different devices but I'm still finding out how much I don't know. Thanks again.

[Q] CM 10.2 flash with Windows for starters

Hello everyone!
This is indeed my first thread and i am totally new here. I ordered a new nook hd+ and read on a thread, that it runs a lot smoother with CM 10.2 on it. So i read some other Threads... some seemed out-dated and the development thread was quiet full of infos but nothing to start with. I hope, someone can help me and this thread maybe of help to others, who start from scratch.
As far as i understood, i need
* an appropriate SD-Card (want leave the original/stock ROM on it for warranty reasons) . I buyed a transcend 32 GB class 10 microSD card as i read, it is quite compatible with the Nook HD+.
( http://www.amazon.de/Transcend-Spei...id=1382202139&sr=8-5&keywords=transcend+32+gb )
* an Image i want to boot. From the development thread, i downloaded cm-10.2-20130923-UNOFFICIAL-ovation-sdcard.
( http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2389813 )
* a bootable SDCard. There some systemfiles in the zip file and a ramdisk.img. I use Win32 Disk Imager, choose this ramdisk (?), write the files to the (unformatted) sdcard and copy the systems files after that.
( http://sourceforge.net/projects/win32diskimager/files/latest/download )
* a optional package for the google apps (gapps). From the "flash for dummies" thread i took gapps-jb-20130813-signed which has the same file structure, so i assume, i need to copy that to sd card too.
( http://goo.im/gapps )
-----------------------------
I hope, there is no flaw in this procedure so far What i missed is: What comes now? Does the Nook automatically boot from the sd card? I would assume, that it does not. I read some hints, that i should copy the "install files" (i assume all of the unzipped files) to the Nook first. Some say, you need root, some say you don't actually and yeah... this is the point where it starts to become misty :fingers-crossed:
Can someone assist me? I would say, i read most threads as far as i could but at some point i was lost. TWERP? USBHost? Set permissions manually? Superuser app? I have an idea what to do but it is no straight line anymore
Thanks in advance

You have it right except for the making a bootable SD. You need to go to verygreen's CM10.1 SD thread referenced in the post you got the cm zip from. Look for early 7.1 zip and extract it and burn that with win32diskimager.

I would not recommend side loading as your first ROM experience. just follow the guide and before you flash the rom make a back up of the device. That way when you need to revert you have a complete image ready to just load.
SO make sure you log into you B&N account and get the Google play app update(i.e. latest update, just search for updates, just to be sure) before you start. This will save you loads of time later if you need to revert.

What do you mean sideloading a ROM? You mean installing a ROM to SD? Why recommend against that? It is the safest way to go since it does not modify internal memory.
And what guide are you recommending he follow?

Thanks for the replies! I am a little bit unsure what to do but i think, i want to give SD Card a try.
I will try it according to your suggestions! Thanks alot!

Installing CM11 on Stock Nook HD+

Hard to find a good step by step guide on here.
I have a stock 32GB nook HD+ 2.2.0 and want to install CM11 on the internal memory. Started reading this tutorial http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2062613 but getting a little lost. Whats the difference between the emmc version and the non emmc? Are they just different version for running CM on sd card instead of the internal memory like the old nooks?
Do I need to root first or is cm11 already rooted, if so how? getting lost on all these tutorials.
I have a 4GB microSD should I use the 4gb version on the stock small?
So here's what I am thinking for the internal nook install.
Use win 32disk imager and format the sdcard using the NookHDplus-bootable-CWM-6028-for-stock-small-rev4-(05.15.13) or 4gb image?
Then transfer cm-11-20140118-UNOFFICIAL-ovation-emmc.zip or cm-11-20140118-UNOFFICIAL-ovation-sdcard.zip to the sd card still zipped up and use CWM recovery to flash it? I'm thinking the stock small CWM should be used so I can fit the CM zip on the 4gb sd card.

Do not follow that guide for installing CM11. That is for stock mods. There are two other guides for putting CM11 on internal memory.
Here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2602796
Or here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2679899
And yes you can run CM11 either on emmc (internal memory) or on SD, just like the older Nooks. Those guides above are for installing to internal. Be sure to use the correct version zip for the one you want.
