hello all,
i recently tried dwnloading the F1 GS2 ROM, i havent got a custom recovery so i changed the kernel to support clockwork recovery, then after i tried to install the Rom, everything started up correctly and then when it came to the samsung logo, the robotic voice (that tells you that it is enabling lag fixes etc.) said that i have to convert sd card partition, after which it continuously kept bootlooping, so what do i do to convert sd card partition on galaxy s?(i have no idea what this means so an easy to understand detailed guide would be nice, lol (newb question, i know.....)
i have since reverted back to XXJVQ 2.3.4. and everything is stock again....

Hello,
firstly, i am very sory for posting this two times as i already posted this in this thread:

Please do not flame me.. i'm only doing this because i'm getting desparate, and maybe it could, to some extent, help some of you to at least make your phone usable as a dumbphone.
I have a problem with my internal SD.. it's very complicated how it came to all this so i'm going to give you a short version..
I've had the phone for over a month now using darkys roms (with voodoo enabled) and then my cat peed on the phone which resulted in me opening it up and cleaning it with alcohol as it went into a restart loop. the phone then booted into recovery but i couldn't mount the sd card.. i then used the JPU 2.2.1 firmware and instaled it with odin. and it worked.. i could access everithyng normaly, but then:
I tryed to do a wipe version of darkys 8.0 and the phone froze when installing.. afterwards i tried to install a stock 2.2.1 JPU firmware and it kept restarting, then i tried the 2.1 again and after the boot animation it booted into a black screen with buttons working (LED).. after some research i installed 2.2.1 again and used speedMod 256 Hz with odin.. now it boots normaly to the system but the internal sd can't be mounted any way so i cant install any apps or use the camera, etc.. it's strange, cause i can't even mount the external SD not in the system and not in recovery (clockwork or e3) (it seems the ext SD is recognised only as a subfolder of the internal SD.. it sucks) so i can't format it.. i still have some hope because the phone boots every time i flash speedmod over 2.2.1 firmware and works as "normal", even if i restart (except some settings not being saved like my google account info..
I guess i hope there is some way to make the phone recognize the external SD card as it's default with some custom kernel, that is why i posted in this thread..
My phone is Europe I9000 non carrier version..
If someone can help me i will be extreemely grateful!
Thanks

Hello, I guess I went in blind and screwed it up. Here's exactly what I did.
1. Created a bootable CWR SD card and used ManualRooter on my stock 1.2. Everything went perfectly. Checked Market and full app list etc.
2. Copied phiremod 6.2 to CWR card. Booted into Recovery. Wiped data/factory reset. Installed phiremod. No error so far. Wiped dalvik cache (not sure if I ran wipe cache partition). Then I turned it off, rebooted and the Nook is now stuck at the loading screen.
Of course, only then did I realize I got a nook with the new partitions (blue sticker). What should I do now? I was planning to try repartitioning but not sure if that would do more damage.
Any input? Thanks.
Fixed it Went ahead and installed the 2 repartition/reformat zips and installed phiremod on top. Everything is just peachy
hey itaintrite, i'm have a similar issue.
burned my working rom to sd so i could flash emmc to 1.2 manual nooter. prob now is when i boot from my sd it hangs at 'touch the future of reading.'

Similar problem....could use some help please!!
OK. Noob who is eternally grateful to all the awesome folks here. With your help I successfully rooted my EVO last summer. Now I have a problem with my new Nook Color. I successfully rooted (NC 1.2) it with ManualNooter, but now it won't accept any other ROMS. Runs MN fine, but I used ROM Manager to download and flash CM7.0.3, but it hangs at the "n COLOR" boot screen. Same exact result with Phirerom. I was able to restore to MN by somehow achieving the CM Recovery and restoring the Nand backup. Meanwhile, while I am unable to flash CM7, I AM able to boot into it from an SD card. Help, please.

The repartition/reformat are in the thread that helps you repartition your 1.2 refurb nook to the older partition format. You can't install any custom roms otherwise.
I am having a similar issue. I rooted my new Blue Dot NC, I made my microSD card image with CW 3.2.0.1-eyeballer and ManualRooter 4.6.16 followed all instructions, and everything came out fine. installed apps, copied over books etc. all running fine. The problem is when I reboot the NC it will start rebooting and then get stuck cycling in the NOOK COLOR animation. I have to reset it, and re-register it with B&N and install ManualRooter again.
Any ideas why this happens? Could it be an app causing this??
I am rooting again and testing the reset before I add any apps, then app by app and see if something comes up.
Any help would be appreciated.
I was running Obsession Rc2 and went to update to the new Rc3. Downloaded to ext sd card, flashed via CWM, and everything booted fine. Restored just apps from Titanium, and that went fine. then a couple minutes after that, the phone just restarted itself and got stuck on the talon kernel boot screen after the status bar went all the way across. Tried a couple of battery pulls and and stratups but it kept sticking on the after kernel load. So I brought up my odin v3 1.7 to flash it back to stock GB with i9000 BL and everything passed in odin. Now though when the phone tries to boot up, it loads into the Android Standard Recovery and comes with all these errors saying it cannot mount the sdcard. Anybody know what is going on and/or how to fix it?
Try flashing stock with a pit file.
Hello everybody,
I have a particular issue with my Note:
A few months ago I had a emmc brick because i tried to wipe on an ICS Stock Rom (can't remember which one)
Since this week I am trying to revice the device.
I used Philz latest Kernel to connect with adb and partitioned everything around 2200MB to 7200MB - I have checked my emmc and found out I have bad blocks beginning at 2159MB to 7111MB.
Formatting the partitions and simply flashing via Odin or CWM did not work out, sometimes the ROM didn't boot up at all (glowing samsung logo) or I got a boot loop.
Then I decided to flash with ODIN using a .PIT file, I used Option 3 from this thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=26285877&postcount=12
Afterwords I was able to format /data /cache and so on - but when I try to flash a Stock ROM with this .PIT (XXLT4) it freezes either at bootup (configuring applications...) or during the unlock / usage process.
Another interesting fact: CM 10.1 (latest nightly) booted up succesfully but took somehow years to boot and could not find the internal sdcard...
Does anybody have an idea what is going on there? I found the bricked blocks, partitioned around them, but could not get a ROM to work.
Is my Note completely bricked?
The other day i took my HD+. I havent used it for two years, and had been running the hybrid boot from the sd card, which was awesome! Well, I wiped the SD card and wiped the tablet. So essentially it was stock.
I formatted a new microSD card with verygreens recovery, booted it, flashed the rom and google apps, and thought everything was fine. Well, I kept getting a google services stopped working error so I decided to just experiment with Marshmallow. I went into the recovery, wiped everything, and flashed amaces ASOP rom. Then tried flashing gapps, and got an error that said that I didnt have android 6.0.x
Must have failed. And when I booted from the SD, sure enough it booted to KitKat, the one I had flashed previously. Well, eventually I took out the SD and to my surprise, cyanoboot was installed to the tablet and not booting from the SD card. And the marshmallow rom launched (without gapps). I tried booting into the internal cyanoboot, but it was the old one. I held the power button and the home button, but to no avail.
This is probably where I messed stuff up. It started booting and started booting stock, which I didnt want. Where it has the little white loading bar. I force shut it down. Well then it started acting weird and not even booting with the internal cyanoboot. It now just flashes the nook logo.
Luckily, I can boot to the external cyanoboot, but it has an error mounting the emmc. Should I reflash the stock rom and recovery?
Thanks!

Running CM internally on EMMC and on SDcard use different CM ROM image versions that are not interchangeable. Currently there is no SDcard build for CM12.x or CM13, so your only choice is to flash and run them on EMMC.

If you plan to go back to stock ROM and recovery, see item #6 of http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2062613.
I don't really care about going back to stock, but I can't mount the emmc, will flashing the original recovery fix that do you think?

I don't think the cause of your "can't mount emmc" problem is due to not having the original recovery. And there is no point in restoring stock recovery unless you want to re-install stock ROM.
So what do you suggest? Try to flash to CWM recovery and hope it fixes the mounting emmc problem?
Great news! Luckily the rom was still intact. I was able to run a "factory reset" and that fixed the emmc mount problem. The CWM recovery was still installed too and it booted into Marshmallow like I had before!
At this point, can I install a different resident recovery utility? I dont see why not.
Thanks for your help
