Hi,
I was happily using my blue-dot NC with CM7 Nightly-177, as suddenly it started to boot ONLY to recovery (CWM 3.2.0.1).
I had used the NC, then put into a neoprene type cover, and put all in a soft bag, and carried it in the car and when I wanted to power the NC on, I was in recovery..
SDCard was intact, could read and copy the contents in my PC.
Tried everything including trying to install CM7 from the sdcard anew multiple times.
It boots from the sdcard, I wipe data, I wipe cache, I wipe dalvik cache, I find and install zip, I install gapps, everything goes OK.. I power down, take the sdcard out. I powerup.. I have the green logo, then the recovery...
What could I be doing wrong?
I'm really pissed off, and thanks for any help.
I wouldn't have wiped data. (I hope you have a backup.) Since it will boot into recovery off the eMMC, put a nightly on a non booting SD card and try again and only wipe Davlik. Normally when updating with ROM Manager that is all you need to wipe. You also might want to flash the gaaps .zip again if you find the market missing after you get back into CM7.
Seemed like you flashed ROM manager into eMMC.

Well, I had asked the same question at androidtablets.net, few days ago, and I was told do take this route, wiping the data and all.
BTW, I have a backup yes..

Yes, multiple times with different zips..
It is always, the green Cyanogen logo, says loading, a little flicker, and the amber menu..
That is very odd. Possibly you have a corrupted image on your card. Have you tried creating the bootable image all over again?
Dumb question..... is it fully charged?

It is even on the mains.
I have tried creating the bootable drive more than once. The image is the one that I have used for the first time..(1gb_clockwork-3.2.0.1-eyeballer)
I will try reverting to stock, and then install once more. If not, I will try to boot from the sdcrad (double boot).
Either I am missing some very basic step, or it is really odd..

Patruns, now I have a nook color e-reader ver 1.2..
Before trying once more I want to check with you which image, which nightly, and which gapps should I use, and maybe from where to download..
I have a 4 GB Sandisk sdcard.
Do you want to install CM7 to the internal memory (eMMC) or just running it off the uSD?
You have to know what you want to do first.

Of course I would like to install to emmc..
I assume you have a brand-new (or like brand-new) v.1.2 NC and you don't want to deal with its partitions.
1. I never try that 3.2.0.1 from eyeballer, but it should be good. Just make sure you not get the corrupted one during download
2. Get the Win32DiskImager old version, r0.15 or something
3. Create flashable uSD (i'm sure you know how to)
Make sure it's good (there should be 4 files in the boot uSD)
4. Get the stable CM7 7.1 and the latest Gapps (0811 or 0821)
5. Drop both in the uSD
6. Fire the NC up.
7. It should get into the CwM R, from there
a. format /system
b. format /data
c. format /cache
Note: I didn't format /boot when doing mine.
d. install CM7 first
e. then install Gapp
8. perform wipe data/factory reset
9. after done, remove the uSD before reboot system.
Give it some times during the first boot.
If after 10' and still not up, then force reboot.
Keep fingers crossed.

So I was going to try and change roms. And I couldn't boot into recovery, so I made a recovery bootable sd card. Me in my glorious thinking decided I would just use it to install the internal recovery and my rom.
Once the sdcard booted into recovery I did a system/data/cache wipe. then installed clockworkmod. It succeeded, so I went to the rom I had on my card. It failed. I said I know, I'll power down, take the sdcard put cm on it and try again. wrong.
Now I can't boot into recovery on either an sdcard or without and turning on the nook regularly flashes loading and goes to the page that says android with the flashing underscore.
so as far as I can tell I have no operating system, because I wiped system. and I'm not sure what is up with my recovery.
I'm looking at this page,
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=914690
but I'm not sure how I would flash the zip if I can't boot into anything?
any ideas would be appreciated

what OS are you using? Linux? I don't know anything DD in Linux sorry.
I have been using Windows and Win32DiskImager
I think they are Fat32 images.
Maybe try Reseting the computer, and trying again.
Yeah it keeps writing phantom images to the directory that is supposed to be where my sdcard is located... and not on to the sdcard itself...
and yeah it's linux... I'm baffled... I think I will try a restart not only on my computer but on my day...
if any linux users have any advice on writing this image I'd appreciate... goodnight all I will try again tomorrow at some point
thanks for the help though!

Make sure your Burning to the device directory and not the mount folder. (ie: /dev/sdc not /media/cardstick )

well at least you boot Partition is intact, but sounds like you have no system or data partition.
Its very odd that the Nook wont boot off the SD card, it should look for that first in the boot Process, all i can think of is that your SD card is still not right.
I tried two different cards. The clockwork 4gb version and the 8gb version. Both looked right with the appropriate files. :/
So I don't think, though it's still a possibility, that it's the card itself
I think in the morning I'll try this http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=922870]

Silly question as I haven't been able to find the info as of yet. Could you explain how we can go about burning the newest CWR ( ie 3.0.1.0 ) so we have a bootable sdcard running it ( 3.0.1.0) instead of the older 3.0.0.6 that all the burnable imgs are currently. I looked threw the thread and I don't see any instructions or talk about how to update a bootable sdcard. It only seems to discuss updating the recovery of the eMMC using ADB or the *.zip file that is linked. Any input,advice, or link would be greatly appreciated. Peace
I must say that the monster rootpack is amazing, and I am up and running

anyway problem solved, running cm7 rc1 right now!
I have a Nook Color that was running the Cyanogenmod nightlies. After shutting it down, it would not boot again.
Since it still boots into recovery, I tried reflashing cyanogenmod, a recovery zipp that was supposed to restore the boot partition, dding boot.img and system.img to the internal memory, a total wipe of every partition, flashing with the latest version of clockwork, along with .7, the stuff mentioned here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=949699, and flashing "nook color return to stock".
Although all flashes completed successfully, the device still won't boot without the sd card. Is there a method I'm missing?
Been in the same boat myself as well as many others. I found that to get it to boot correctly again do this. Use this link (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=914690) and downlaod the "Remove CWR" file, you'll also want to download the repartition-boot-with-stock.zip which is the last link in the OP right under the Remove CWR link. Once you download each file copy them to a bootable sdcard. Then pop the bootable card into the nook and power it up to into CWR off the sdcard. After that install the Remove CWR zip first, then follow up by installing the repartition-boot-with-stock.zip. Once all is said and done power the Nook off by holding the power button in. take the sdcard out and then power it on. Odds are it will get stuck again but you should be stuck on the N screen. If so power it off and then put your bootable sdcard back in the device so you can start fresh reinstalling CM7 & gapps.
If you repartition boot, cwr will be removed in the process. No need for the second file..

In theory it should and you are totally right on but I've personally seen it where even after repartitioning the boot it still will not boot correctly for whatever reason. That said personally I've found it just as easy to take the extra step to make sure it gets cleared up as it takes a matter of a couple extra seconds to do it.
Thanks, I'll try that.
Followed instructions exactly, but the thing still won't boot. I must have F'd up my /boot partition pretty badly.
Edit: Wiped every single partition and cache, then flashed, now it works. Thanks guys
I am having this same problem and have a question about the options to fix it. I have CM7 stable on my NC and it worked untill I formatted the SD card and rebooted.. now it just gets stuck at "touch the future of reading" screen.
Is it possible to remove CWM without harming the CM7 install? and still be able to boot to CM7?
All I see are instructions on how to use ADB or to use CWM to flash to the external SD. Is there a way to use CWM ready CM7 for the internal flash?
Hi,
If I understand your question, you would like to run CyanogenMOD7 off the
internal memory also called emmc, rather than running it off the external
memory or uSD card.
Though a bit dated, I found this walk-through to be very detailed:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=960542&page=16
Hope this is what you are looking for.

It is helpful, however I am looking for a CWM ready version....so far no luck.
Hi,
The instructions in:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=960542&page=16
Are assuming running from uSD version of CWM.
Following other CWM install instructions you can end up with CWM installed
on the internal flash, emmc.
For example:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=971197
Minor issue to watch for: the versions of CWM that support EXT4, required
for CM7 also require a different kernel.
I'm not quite sure what you mean by CWM ready version of CM7... the CM7
nightlies are in a .zip file that is flashed by CWM running off the EMMC boot
partition. The first time you install CM7 you also have to use CWM to
reformat some of the partitions on the EMMC (to ext4), but after that you can
use CWM to update the flash each time.
ROMManager can also be used to download ROMS and start CWM.
I am in 'updating' mode, I usually download a recent CM7 nightly and
recent overclock Kernel on PC, then share to Nook using Dropbox.
On Nook, I download .zips from Dropbox and move to root of the data
SD card. I also have latest Google apps (GAPPS) in Dropbox or SD card.
I then use ROMManager to run CWM to backup entire ROM.
Then I use ROMManager to boot into CWM and individually:
Install from .zip: nightlyxxx.zip (Current CM7 version)
Install from .zip GAPPSxxx.zip (Current google apps version)
Install from .zip kernelxxx.zip (Current OC kernel, overwrites the CM7 version)
Then I wipe cache partition.
Then finally wipe dalvik partition - CWM freezes here.
Reboot and wait a while (5 mins) (I assume it is rebuilding dalvik cache here)
Often seem to need another reboot and wait.
Hope this helps...

Thanks, that does clarify things. I'm new at this and do it was a little confusing to me how to do it. In the captivate forum they're a little more forward on how it's done. I appreciate the help. I tried using the rc4 encore signed but it seems to stop at the startup with N color on it. I thought I formatted all the partitions properly. Is there something I did wrong?
Hi,
I haven't had the problem of being stuck at 'N', but I'm sure there are plenty of
others that have... it will be something simple, probably missed one step in install.
Perhaps check through the list you followed and try and remember if you forgot
one step, or didn't understand one of the steps.
My install no longer shows the "N" at all when booting, so I'm guessing that
there is a missing piece somewhere!
I get:
"Touch the Future of Reading"
Brief flash of "Loading"
Few seconds of sideways "android..."
Then an animated CyanogenMOD logo for more seconds.
Here is one (long) thread about booting problems, but there are other ones too.

Got the problem fixed. Had to boot to a different CWM and format as ext4. Now all is well.
Speed Comparison
I have CM7 flashed to a class 4 sd card and it seems a little slow compared to the stock elcair build. Does CM7 installed to the internal memory speed things up a bit or does the system still seem a little slow. I'd like to know before I flash to my internal memory.
It should be faster on the internal, logically speaking, but perhaps with the right SD card you'll get comparable speed.
Hi there,
i'm having huge problems getting my HD+ fixed.
what happened: shut down out of nowhere, didnt boot the ROM, just TWRP recovery loops. Flashing and wiping did nothing good to the device. I always got errors when trying to install zips (data1 not found or something like this), but somehow the installation of CWM worked.
At the moment: CWM 6.0.4.5, when booting into recovery, under mounts/storage it says that system, data rom and bootdata arent mounted (but i can mount them from there).
trying to flash a new ROM or other zips doesnt work: Status 7.
I've read several threads over here, but I'm still confused and dont know how to save my HD+. Which exact files should i flash in which order? How to get rid of status 7?
Thank you so much.

That v6045 of CWM is causing the status 7 errors. You need an older version for older zips. Go to my HD/HD+ CWM thread linked in my signature and make a bootable CWM SD per item 1a. Then you can flash whatever you want, including that plain stock zip from item 6.

Hi,
thanks for your answers.
I made a CWM SD as described. I put it into my HD+. But how do I avoid my Nook booting into the already-installed emmc-6.0.4.5? I rebooted it several times and always landed in the 6.0.4.5, so I assume i'm not in the SD-CWM which i desperately need. I also pushed "NookHDplus-CWM-6036-for-internal-memory-rev1-(09.22.13).zip" to the internal memory and tried to flash this, but no chance - status 7.
As I see it, the problem is to get into the older CWM-SD because the 6.0.4.5 won't let me install earlier CWMs (status 7)?

On my new replacement Nook I can't boot to any SDcards no matter if they are CWM or CM unless I boot into a working OS unmount the card I have in there eject it and put another one in while still booted then do a reboot it then boots every time off the new card.
Now the stock OS is installed. But I have problems getting into the SD-CWM. At the moment, it doesnt boot at all when the SD card is my Nook. Very strange behaviour.
I don't have a second SD-card, so I can't try that.

Create a bootable SD card: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2062613
- format SD card with SDFormatter
- set the only partition to "active" with MiniTool Partition Wizard

- add your CM11-zip to the SD card using your windows explorer
- add flash_recovery_ovation_CWM_6.0.4.5b_internal.zip from http://goo.im/devs/succulent/ovation/recovery
- put it in your Nook, boot it up, if you're lucky you see CWM
- flash the 6.0.4.5b CWM, then you're ready to flash the newest CM11. If you want to flash an older version of CM such as 10.1 or 10.2, you need a lower CWM version to avoid status 7 errors.
- flash CM11
That was my way to CM11, but there is one huge problem at the moment: CM won't boot, it loops the CM-bootlogo infinitely. several wipes did nothing, still looping. My CWM always says on bootup that /system/ (besides others) isnt mounted, but I can mount them without a problem, flashing the CM-ROM doesnt produce errors.
I don't know how to avoid the CM bootlogo-loop
Had to reboot about 8 times to get my nook to read 32 gig SD card.

I had to reboot my nook at least 8 times to get it to read my SD card so I could install succulents 07FEB2014, using TWRP, because I was getting error 7 when installing via CWM.6.0.26 If I had known better, I would have copied the 07FEB2014 (stable) build to my internal memory and installed with TWRP from there. I somehow got into a loop where I could only boot into TWRP, finally being able to install seemed to fix this. I am loving the 07FEB2014 build. Keep up the good work gentle men and women! I really love this build.
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.
