Android 3.0? Are you talking about Honeycomb? In most cases you don't need ADB to get the Android Market on to your Nook. You should be able to flash it using the Clockwork Recovery.
What version of Android do you have installed? Where to you have it installed to? Exactly what is your end goal?
I have android 3.0 Honeycomb installed on a 32GB Micro-SD. It works fine. My end goal is to just use the nook as much like I do my phone as possible. So i want to download Gmail, Kindle, Facebook, Google+, Music, etc.
I do have a 2 gig clockwork recovery SD already setup and did a backup of the Nook before I started. How can I use it to get Google Market and Amazon Market installed?
Using Honeycomb on the Nook isn't recommended, it is far from completely functional and there is no on going development on it, the devs are waiting for Ice Cream Sandwich.
I recommend using CM7, the nightlies seem to be the most functional and stable and are actively developed and supported.
That said if you are intent on using it anyway I would recommend going with the latest effort by Divine_madcat, from what I understand it is the most up to date and functional of the ports, here, it installs on the internal memory and comes preinstalled with the Market.

I would be happy to just use Android 2.2 like what is on my Thunderbolt. Can you point me to a guid that would walk me through how to get it installed as easily as possible?
The reason I went with Honycome was that it was so easy, I just wrote the image to the 32GB SD and turned it on.
I would like to install to the internal mem but the first one i tried using my 2GB Clockwork SD didnt work...
Oh and my Nook is V1.2.
Burn the CWR image here to your SD card, once you've done that you can grab the latest nightly here , throw it on your SD card and flash it by booting up the Nook with the SD card inserted and choosing "install zip from sd card". Remove the SD card from your Nook and boot it up, then open the Rom Manager app and go to "download rom" then download and flash gapps. once you've done that you'll be all up and running, you can then use a program like mini tool to repartition your SD card.

Clean format ur SD card.
Download this.
Unpack it.
Write it to the SD card.
Download the latest stable release or nightly build of CM.
Put the downloaded ROM to the "boot" partition of ur SD card.
Boot the NC.
Let it install and reboot.
Connect wifi on successful boot and turn off the NC.
Download Gapps here.
Reboot it to the recovery by pressing "N + power" keys at the startup
It will install Gapps and reboot thats it.
Hit thanks if it helps
Ok that worked great!! Thank you!
But I dont understand what "Flash Gapps" is and I dont see it... I have a 2nd SD card so I dont care about repartitioning the one I used to get the image on...
It wont let me mount the SD card that has the GAPS on it. And it keeps saying "only premium user can mount..." etc.
So I reboot and install GAPS the same way I did the image??
I'm confused again

Copy ur Gapps to the "boot" partition of ur SD card having CM7 and power it on holding the "power and N" keys together till it says "loading recovery" it will install the same way like it installed CM7 ROM.
Thats all.
If this doesn't work let the CM7 power on and hold power off and check the option "Reboot into recovery".
Hit thanks and raise my thanks meter.
So I got GAPPS installed but now it’s just riddled with errors. Every time it tries to download something from the market it says it was "stopped unexpectedly"... I cant even get Gmail to install.
wht did u download? the latest nightly build or the stable release?
I turned on Dbug.... now I think its working!!
Sweet!! Thanks guys!

Alright here's my whole story...
Was running Froyo 6.8 flashed to internal memory. Was going to update to latest Phiremod. Booted into clock recovery and formatted system and data. Then went to install the Phiremod zip and it wouldn't work. I forget what it said now because i've been trying so many things. Either way wouldn't go more than a line or two before saying it couldn't install. Now after reboot it won't go past the blue android line in the upper left corner. I can still get into clockwork but now it says it can't mount sd card. Someone please help. I knew I should have left it alone...
Well as long as the hardware itself is ok there should be no need to worry. I wish I had enough experience to help you through this but Im afraid at this point it would be like the blind leading the blind. So just relax and be patient and im sure someone will be able to help get you going again.

I've had a few instances where the sd card just stopped talking to the nook. Usually just taking it out and reseating it seemed to help. Could be this is the issue with not mounting, either that or the card just needs to be reburned with an image. I would start with just popping it out and back in, and if this doesn't work relfash the image to the card. If I'm not mistaken Phiremod is based on CM7, and you need an EXT4 aware CWR. Make sure you have the right version for what you are installing.
just purchased nook and flashed to autonooter.
was gonna hold off until the B&N update to see what it brought and didn't want to lose the magazine capabilities but can't wait anymore to go full cm7.
question: since i 'nooted, i already have cwm and the market. do i need to install again, or can i just download cm7 from the teamdouche link to sd card and boot up?
thanks in advance
anyone? little help?

Yep - you can install CM7 by getting the update.zip from teamdouche, copying it to your SD card, booting into CWM and selecting Install update.zip from SD card. This will overwrite your stock with CM7.

Are you sure of this? If you look at the steps described here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1030227 you have to first prepare your SDCard and then install from that. I tried just installing from cwm in stock root and ended up getting assert errors and aborted installation... and if you wipe the caches like it explains needs to happen, you are stuck booting into cwm untill such time as you follow the instructions in the thread I posted, which work without a hitch if you are able to follow instructions,
migrax
What special preparation? The image being burned to the SD card is just clockwork mod, which isn't necessary if he already has CWM. Once in CWM, that guide just has you flash the CM7 update off the SD card. I don't know about the assert errors, but I don't think it has to do with how you've prepared the SD card.

Sk8house911 is right. Just make sure you flash the correct cwr from rom manager, which is 3.0.1.0 And make a backup before you do anything.
Sent from my DROID2 using XDA App
If you want to keep the stock B&N reader, you can install CM7 to a SD card per http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1000957. I did this and also installed a dual-boot menu, http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=962708, and can select either stock on the eMMC or CM7 on the SD card.
I'm quite happy with this arrangement, although I may change things around after the B&N Froyo update arrives.
Hi all,
I hope this is the right place to put this - I'm not sure if it's a Nook Color, Cyanogenmod, ROM Manager, or Clockworkmod issue. I just rooted my NC to CM7 using Clockworkmod and it seems to work fine. I tried installing the GoogleApps .zip file at the same time. It said it was successful, but I don't see any of the Google apps in the apps drawer.
So, I went to ROM Manager to try and fix this. When I first opened ROM Manager it said I needed an SD Card installed to use it (I had removed it after the successful flash). So I inserted the card and mounted it in Settings->Storage and tried again. Now when I click on anything it says "You must have ClockworkMod Recovery installed before continuing! Install the recovery through ROM Manager first."
If I click the Install button, the dialog closes and nothing happens. If I click the menu option "Flash ClockworkMod Recovery" the title of the screen (ROM Manager v4.2.0.0) flashes for a split second. That's it. Nothing is installed.
If I reboot while holding the upside-down U button I eventually get an "Update failed!" screen that looks like it comes from the standard Nook UI. If I try to reboot into recovery using the Power button it just reboots as normal.
I've found a large amount of resources online regarding the "unable to reboot into recovery" issue, but I feel like I don't know enough about what I'm actually doing to implement them. I also don't know how the inability to flash ClockworkMod fits into this. It's especially strange how selecting the option to flash it actually does nothing.
Anyone have ideas?

Question, did you have clockworkmod installed on your sd when you flashed cm7 or was it installed internally? Can you boot into recovery with rom manager? If clockwork is on sd, find the newest clockwork zip and flash it with your card internally. That should allow you to update to the newest version in Rom Manager. Try reflashing gapps.

Clockworkmod was installed on the SD card.
I cannot boot into recovery using ROM Manager. It just restarts the device as normal.
I believe I have the latest CWM because I grabbed it from their website yesterday (4.2.0.0). How do I flash it internally? That's what I was attempting to do with ROM Manager. I followed the steps listed in thread #922870 on this forum (still can't post links) and I believe that results in CWM on internal memory, but ROM Manager still behaves the same way.
I did reflash gapps twice, but there is still no Maps, Market, Gmail, etc.
I just noticed something else. When I mount my SD card on the NC it shows up as empty: /mnt/sdcard has no contents. Does this indicate an error with the SD card and/or partitions? I am using the 8 GB image of CWM on my 16 GB card (because there is no 16 GB version).

Your SD card has clockwork burned as an image which the nook cannot read. You can format the card later for use (go to nookdevs website). I am attaching a zip file for clockworkmod 3.0.1.0 (credit goes to Mistar Muffin). Put that on your SD card, insert it into the nook and boot it up. It should take you into recovery. You can then flash the zip file and get Clockworkmod on your emmc. You should be able to update to the new version 3.0.2.8 from Rom Manager at that point. I think the nook is confused with the absence of Clockwork internally. As far as your rom goes, I would boot into recovery when the Clockworkmod issue is resolved and reflash the CM7 build, reboot, go back into recovery and flash the gapps. You can repeat the process with an overclocked kernel if you choose. This zip is a file that floated around the forum for awhile. It was removed when Clockworkmod got an update. I have used it on my nook. It should be safe. Good luck

Thanks for your help; unfortunately this did not work. Nothing has changed. I placed the zip file in my SD card that already has CWM imaged. I went to "Install zip from SD card" and installed the zip. It completely successfully. Then I rebooted and entered ROM Manager, which told me I needed the SD card back in. I mounted the SD card and am encountering the same issues as before.
What could I have possibly done to mess this up? I followed all the steps listed on the Cyanogenmod website and they never mention anything about flashing CWM internally. Another question - why do I need the SD card for ROM Manager if that app is downloading things from the internet?
Thanks!

Sorry, my bad. I forget that Rom Manager is part of the CM7 package. You should not need the sd card for Rom Manager to work properly. I am not sure why it is calling for it. Can you reboot into recovery with the power+n method, not the SD card? If you can do that, it tells me clockwork installed correctly. If you can get there, I would do your formats (data, system) and reflash the rom. Another option, if Titanium Backup is part of the rom package try to wipe data in rom manager and give it another try. You may can do that in manage applications (I don't have my nook with me). The link below may or may not help. Look at option 3. The 3.0.1.0 zip it is calling for is the one I sent you prior. I am about out of options. Good luck.

AHA! I solved it, and it wasn't directly an issue with anything except my stupidity. I was connecting to my company's guest wireless, which as it turns out requires a username/password before you get anything other than the login screen. That is why the ROM manager was failing to flash itself - it had a worthless wifi connection. When I switched to another wireless access point it works just fine.
Thanks for your assistance bdcrim! Sorry it wasn't a more satisfying conclusion.

Thats okay, glad you got it going. Made me dig a bit, which probably helped both of us be a little more educated for future issues. Have a great day.
Hi all
I have been lazy all these days & currently on CM7 version 72 I guess. Now I want to update it to latest nightly, 208.
I currently have ROM Manager 4.4.0.7. And I think the ClockWorkMod installed is no longer exists. Because in ROM Manager when I click on "Manage & Restore Backups" it says I must have CWM installed. SO I guess earlier version of CWM is gone now.
Earlier I used to update CM7 by preparing SD card, moving the ZIP file to it & flashing in ROM Manager by booting into recovery.
Now I have forgotten every damn thing, so I want to know how to update to latest nightly. Thanks in advance
Was just there.
I was actually in a similar situation as you earlier this morning, and was able to update just now. To recap what you have to do:
[Since I'm a new user and can't post URL's, just add http colon // to the following addresses]
Get Eyeballer's clockwork image: tinyw.in/0Vw
Decompress the image.
Burn the decompressed image to a microSD card with this: launchpad.net/win32-image-writer
(As I'm sure you know, that'll erase everything in the card, so back it up first. Also, it'll show up as 1GB. When you're done with the upgrade you have to reformat it to get the full space back)
Copy onto the microSD card's root directory the following:
The newest multiuboot: dl.dropbox.com/u/20480343/multi-uboot-v0.4.zip
The newest nightly image: download.cyanogenmod.com/?device=encore
Don't decompress them!
Boot the NookColor with the microSD card inserted. A pair of skulls should show up, indicating that Clockwork is booting.
Once booted, one of the menu options is "backup/restore". From there you can do a backup, which I recommend.
(In case you don't remember, like I didn't: Use the volume buttons to move up/down, use the "n" button to select a menu item, and use the power button to go back to a previous menu)
For the actual upgrade, choose "install from zip", and select the nightly image zip file, and then confirm.
After the upgrade, repeat the "install from zip" with the multiuboot zip file.
And you're done with the Nook!
As for your microSD card:
If you did a backup, you'll find a folder named after the date and time in the microSD card, in clockwork/backup/. I'd save it to the computer just in case.
Now, reformat the microSD card to get all your space back.
Finally, copy back the original files that where in the microSD.
^Thanks a lot for replying ! You have pretty much explained everything
The earlier method was also like this only & I thought there may new methods like flashing from ROM Manager etc. Anyways here is the guide - link
I didn't get one thing, why multiuboot needs to be used ?
TIA

I bought my Nook through a friend at work and as I look at the CM7 mod version it is...
CyanogenMod-7-0409211-Nightly-encore
It looks like the last nighty was done in Apr 9/2011, so it's due for a well deserved update.
1. with my mod version being so old, do I need to do incremental updates or the latest nightlies is good enough.
2. I have the rom manager but not the clockwork, where do I get this.
3. is 2gig card enough to update, i rather not format my existing card in the nook to use for my update.
Thanks

Woops, totally forgot that my Nook is dual-booting CM7 and the original B&N android OS. Either way, I'm under the impression you have to re-flash the boot code every time you change the kernel, but I may be wrong.
I guess you can try without flashing the boot code, and see if it works. If not, just reboot with the card in and flash the boot. The great thing about the Nook is that it's pretty much brick-proof.
I'd better wait for someone for more clear instructions. Anyways thanks for replying

make sure you have the latest rom manager(4.5.0.1) you can update it from the market. While in the rom manger hit "flash clockworkmod recovery" select the nook color from the list, once you've done that you can go to "download rom" and download and flash the latest nightly.

make sure you have the latest rom manager(4.5.0.1) you can update it from the market. While in the rom manger hit "flash clockworkmod recovery" select the nook color from the list, once you've done that you can go to "download rom" and download and flash the latest nightly.

That's it ? No need of preparing SD Card to install CM7 ?
and also I have downloaded CM7 build 208, so where can I place this ?
I have two NookHD+ but bought a HD for one of my sons. Got it yesterday and went about trying to figure out how to get CM 11 or 10.2 on it.
So took me forever to figure out it won't boot to SD without the power cable plugged in, even if battery is full. Whatever.
1. So created boot SD with NookHD-bootable-CWM-6027-for-emmc-stock-4GB-rev3-(02.03.13).img
2. Wiped and then installed cwm-recovery-hummingbird-5.zip
3. Tried to install cm-11-20140117-UNOFFICIAL-hummingbird-emmc.zip but failed saying something like "System 7" (not sure about "System" but 7 I'm sure about.)
Gave up on CM11, decided to try 10.2
1. Did a restore, wiped, then installed cm-10.2-20140117-UNOFFICIAL-hummingbird-emmc.zip and gapps-jb-20130813-signed.zip
2. Now with SD card removed it boots to CWM. I thought it might be something to do with cwm-recovery-hummingbird-5.zip so I tried cwm-recovery-hummingbird-2.zip but it still boots to CWM with the card removed.
Previosuly I screwed the pooch with one of the HD+and I had a stock ROM, but can't seem to find one for the HD.
Anyway, I hope someone had the answer please, son was using it a little stock and it's just plain broken now, so I feel like a jerk. HELP!:crying:
If possible, try starting from the beginning. Installing CM11 for many users has been problematic; so I'd recommend CM10.x for now.
Insert your SD card into your computer's card reader, and format it using SDFormatter. Now using your preferred tool, burn the .img file to your SD card (NookHD-bootable-CWM-6027-for-emmc-stock-4GB-rev3-(02.03.13).img).
Once burned, download a stable version of CM10.2.1 (or 10.1.3 if you prefer) from: http://download.cyanogenmod.org/?device=hummingbird&type=stable and download gapps from: http://goo.im/gapps for the version of CM you download. Also download "CWM Recovery zip" (cwm-recovery-hummingbird-2.zip) for Nook HD at: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2319000 (on the 5th paragraph). Once you have downloaded all three files, place them on your SD card.
Now eject your SD card from the computer. Turn your Nook off. Place the SD card in, and turn your Nook on (if your Nook does not boot from the SD card, do whatever method works for you to get it to boot). Once booted into CWM Recovery via SD card, install "cwm-recovery-hummingbird-2.zip", now reboot your device. Make sure you're in this version of the recovery. Now clear your cache partition, and install both CM and Gapps.
After flashing/install, try rebooting. Hopefully you should be able to boot into CyanogenMod. If not, reply back please and I have another definite trick up my sleeve.
All the best.

The reason the CM11 did not install without an error message is it needs a newer version of CWM to flash it.
And you may need to go to my HD/HD+ CWM thread and flash the plain stock zip from item 6. That aborted CM11 install probably messed up your internal memory. Then you can start clean with CM10.2.
Sent from my BN NookHD+ using XDA Premium HD app
Thank you, I'll try it now, Formatted with SDFormatter and Burning NookHD-bootable-CWM-6027-for-emmc-stock-4GB-rev3-(02.03.13).img now (takes a while for whatever reason, class 4 card)
I'll then install...
1. Install cwm-recovery-hummingbird-2.zip - Reboot
2. Clear Cache, Wipe then
3. install cm-10.2-20140117-UNOFFICIAL-hummingbird-emmc.zip And gapps-jb-20130813-signed.zip.
Thank you, stay tuned for results!

Yeah you saved my HD+ with the stock image last time, but I can't seem to find the link or I don't recognize it. I must be blind, I'll go look closer...
Thank you
Edit, found it! thank you, helped that you told me "Item 6"
Ok, got it working and I got it working with CW11.
HiddenG, I tried your steps as best I could and no love from the Nook. After getting NookHD-stock-2.1.1-rooted.zip and installing it from the CWM that was burned on to the SD, the unit appeared to be back to stock. So I'll document the rest for others trying to install CW11 on the NookHD.
1. Burned a SD card with NookHD-bootable-CWM-6027-for-emmc-stock-4GB-rev3-(02.03.13).img
2. Copied cwm-recovery-hummingbird-5.zip, cm-11-20140117-UNOFFICIAL-hummingbird-emmc and gapps-kk-20140105-signed to SD.
3. Booted from SD and cleared cache/wiped. Installed cwm-recovery-hummingbird-5.zip. (Cleared cache/wiped again because I'm never sure on the order of such things)
4. Removed SD card and booted from the internal CWM (the one installed from cwm-recovery-hummingbird-5) by holding down nook sign and powering on.
5. Installed cm-11-20140117-UNOFFICIAL-hummingbird-emmc and gapps-kk-20140105-signed. Cleared cache/wiped again because figured it was good to do ensure it was done.??
6. Remove SD card and Rebooted via the CWM menu.
7. Enjoying CW11
Thank you both for leapinlar & HiddenG for your help. You've saved the day and made my son a happy little guy again! :victory:
Haha, glad you got your son's Nook working again. Restoring to stock firmware/ROM was actually my last "definite trick up my sleeve." Anyhow, I'm happy for you!
Enjoy.
