[QN] Upgrading from Phiremod 6.2 to CM7 Nightlies - Nook Color General

Hi all,
Currently my nook is running phiremod 6.2 and i believe my b&n software is 1.1 as when my nook start up it says the future of reading is here.
The question is do i need to upgrade my b&n software to 1.2 before i install CM7 after wiping out my emmc?
When people says wiping out all data it means formating the system, data, cache and dalvik cache right?

anyone can help?

Phiremod is just a themed version of CM7. All you need to do is flash a new nightly, no need to wipe anything. A custom cyanogenmod 1.2 uboot is included since an earlier nightly, so having 1.1 or 1.2 previously doesn't matter.
Nightly 98 is the newest: http://download.cyanogenmod.com/?device=encore

Install Dalingrin's OC kernel but no 1100 settings

Hi all, this is my first post here, I have just installed CM7 and it works flawlessly, but when I tried to install Dalingrin's OC kernel, everything seems installed fine, but when I go to the CM7 settings, the fastest CPU speed I can choose is 925, is there any one who experiences the same things and successfully solve the problem?
Thanks in advanced.
are you flashing with cwm 3.0.1.0 with the proper updated kernel to write to ext4 partitions?
First of all make sure that your downloading the corrent kernel the one for CM7.
Also, did you wipe your cache partition and clearn your dalvik cache?
If not then reflash.
*edit* Im sure you have it but here is the corrent link for froyo and cm7 builds: http://nook.handhelds.ru/dalingrin/kernels/
Hi, thank you for the replys, much appreciated!
Unfortunately, I redo the whole things again and pay extra attention to the things you mentioned, but it still didn't work.
I used CWMR 3.01 to remove cache partition and dalvik cache, although nook hangs after cleaning up dalvik cache, I force power off nook and reenter CWMR and install the Dalingrin kernel again, I did check the kernel version, SD/CM7...
No luck..
Any other thoughts?
The problem you describe is indicative of flashing the wrong kernel. If CM7 is installed on the internal memory, then you need the EMMC version of the kernel. Please confirm that this is what you are doing.
Thank you, you are right, I am using the wrong kernel, sorry for the stupidity, I follow several install guide, but I have no idea what I need is the emmc one.
Thanks.

[Q] CM7 Nightly Won't Boot

Hey Guys,
I'm having trouble with my NC and CM7. I decided to upgrade from the most recent stable version cm7 to the most recent nightly (149 I believe) I am installing to emmc, and using the clockwork bootable SD to do the install. I have wiped the system, data, cache then installed cm7 then Gapps. I go to reboot, and pull the SD it will get to the cyanogen mod boot screen and says loading... under the cyanogen logo. I figured first time it was booting it would take a while, after 15+ minutes of the same screen I realized its not going to work, so I tried an earlier nightly (146) and same story.. Is there something I'm doing wrong that would be different from how I installed stable to how I install a nightly? I can't see how it would be any different, but I could be wrong.. thanks in advance everyone!
Did you try to power it off, then power it up again?
Sometimes after a install it does not complete the first reboot.
If you just do the upgrade, then why you wipe /system and /data?
Wipe /cache is enough.
You know if you wipe /system & /data, then you lost everything and you have to redo the whole thing, right?
Not sure why you went through all that when you can just update through ROM Manager. In any event, did you wipe the Davlik cache?
As a data point, I installed n149+gapps this morning, wiped Dalvik only, all via Rom manager, and I'm running just fine.

[Q] SD Card Removed???

Ok, so I went from Classicnerd to CM9 Alpha 2 to the CM9 Unofficial Nightlies and I am having an issue with the latest update. It seems that when I upgrade to either the CM9 Official Nightly or the most recent Unofficial Nightly, I am getting an SD Card Removed error. It seems to be linked to the upgrade from 4.0.3 to 4.0.4. All the apps that have been moved to my SD Card partition are not accessible. Anyone know why? I haven't wiped completely, because I am happy on 4.0.3, but I just wanted to see if there is an answer for this?

It sounds like something got corrupted. If you have a good backup, restore it, then wipe cache and wipe dalvik cache and install the latest nightly. That should do it. If you don't have a good backup, try wipe delete factory reset, wipe dalvik cache and install the latest nightly. You'll have to restore your data, but that's what you get for not having a nandroid.........
Good luck.
Edit : Rereading your post, I think you'll have to do a clean install of cm9. ClassicNerd uses different source. If you have a good backup, you can try advanced restore > restore data, or Titanium.
Yes, he's right.
When going from one release to the next in the same style of series (Alpha2 => Nightlies => more nightlies), you can get away with just a wipe of the /cache and the Dalvik cache. If you go from CN => Nightlies or Nightlies => CM, or any other combo that isn't the same series, you are best set to do a full backup, then a full wipe and start fresh. You can try an Advanced Restore, but be aware it might not work.
I too am having the same problem... it first occurred with the upgrade to 4.0.4. I wiped every thing restored cm9 backup and wen I'm instcalling apps and moving them to sdcard after about five apps my sdcard is removed and will not mount. So I reverted to cm7 (got to have headphone jack) and after moving some apps the samething occured again...

Since we are talking about wiping, I would just like to chime in and ask how that is done on the TouchPad. The only other Android device I have ever owned is my Droid X2 that I use now. And when I want to wipe that, Motorola has a method of doing it to where it sets you back to stock factory settings with a file they provide. Since the TouchPad isn't an official Android device and all, what do you use to wipe it and start over? A link to a thread that explains it would be helpful. I'm sure there is one. I will look.
for an answer to the OP i found this on rootzwiki....dunno if ok to post link but ima do it anyways...remove if frowned upon:
http://rootzwiki.com/topic/13277-cm7-fixes-for-sdcard-issues/
to fix my sdcard issues i AMCEUninstalled android and did a clean install of the latest moboot, gapps, clockworkmod, and cm9 A2. As for fixing the sdcard issue it also fixed alot of other things....no more Google maps constantly opening and wat not....much more stable.

Use ClockworkMod to wipe data/factory reset

[Q] How do i flash a custom rom?

I have been searching around and can't find out how exactly I should go about flashing a custom ROM on the Hero. Yes, before anyone says it, I am a noob at this, and this will be my first time flashing a ROM(if i could ever figure it out). I have the latest stable version of CyanogenMod 7, which i believe is 7.1.0, and the GApps package to go along with it. Both are on the root of my SD card. I rooted with Z4root, downloaded ROM Manager, and chose the setting to flash Clockwork Mod Recovery. Should I flash using ROM Manager, or should I boot into CWM Recovery and flash from there? If possible, does anyone have a video that could help me along with this? The video posted in the video thread for this device is down. Any help is highly appreciated. Thanks!
Boot into Clockwork Mod Recovery and flash from there.
BTW, I'm running the latest release candidate for 7.2. Works perfectly for me.
I ended up finding a video on how to flash through CWM. I also later downloaded one of the CM 7.2 RCs, believe RC2. Now my next question is, do I need to wipe data, cache, and dalvik cache if I update to a newer version of CM, like a newer RC of 7.2 or one of the early beta versions of CM9?
Sent from my HERO200 using XDA
Wipe cache etc. when flashing a later version of CM7 over an earlier version. Do a wipe data/factory reset when flashing CM7 over CM9.
It has always been a safe route whenever you flash a new rom to just wipe data, wipe cache, and wipe dalvik.
Yes.

Update to latest Milaq's Nigthly build

Hi,
I have the Touchpad installed with Milaq's nightly build 08/25 and the jb-app 2013/03 build.
Is there a way to update to latest Milaq's nightly build and latest jb-app 2013/08/12 without resetting the configuration in Touchpad and will have to re-install all the apps and their config/settings?
I was thinking to install the update via CWM-Clockmod, but afraid that I will have to re-install and reconfig all the apps.
Thanks,
Well, if nothing else, an app like MyBackup Root will be able to save all of your apks+their data. Plenty of other apps do it too, that is just the one I've used. Good luck.
You can try a dirty flash, meaning that you only wipe cache and dalvik (not system or data) when you flash it in recovery. Make sure to do a nandroid first.
There shouldn't be any issues when flashing the new nightly from the recovery (CWM or TWRP). Just remember to wipe cache and Dalvik cache before rebooting to CM.
I did an dirty update to the newest cm10.2 nightly coming from cm10.1 - no bad issues so far.
Be sure to make a backup of your old rom and simply try
