Nook HD - CM10 sdcard boot erratic - Nook HD, HD+ Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

FYI about erratic boot int cm10 I experienced.
setup
copied cwm image to SD card (Sandisk 32G class 4), booted into cwm, mounted /sdcard, adb push cm10 zip, installed zip w cwm.
Examined card with gparted and it appears to be properly formatted with five partitions.​
CWM screen is 180 degress rotated and pulses off momentarity every couple seconds, but it seems to function.
I can boot into cyanoboot, and boot into CWM recovery (with the rotation and pulsing issues noted above).
The first four times trying to boot into cm10, I briedfly saw the cyanogenmod logo (with the rotating concentric circles). Then it stopped, screen went dark, and the 'n' Nook logo appeared and it booted into what appeared to be the stock ROM until it got to 99%, then it was stuck.
Shut down device, removed SD card, re-inserted, and it booted into cm10. Perhaps the card was inserted not quite correctly?
In any case, great to have it working. Thanks to bokbokan for porting verygreen's CM10 HD+.

[Q] Can SD Card prevent power on

nook color running 1.2 did a hard reset on it to try and fix this problem
i ran CM7 off SD card fine for months till i did something stupid and deleted the build.prop and did not restore old one before rebooting.
sandisk class 3 4gb sd card formated in windows to fat 32 totally blan insert into nook it powers on.
now i redo all my steps i did few months back in this thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1000957
insert card into nook and now nook wont power on unless i remove it wait a few seconds. no reformat it back to fat32 and insert into nook and it powers on fine.
any ideas?
so after putting in a new sd card it still refuses to boot with sd card in. could they have put some kind of preventive for booting from sd card? it boots fine if sd card is empty but soon as i put a boot img on it nada
hardware/port failure?
or can it read the sd card after you boot into vanilla nook?
i was updating a daily once and it would just sit there and always boot into nook... then i realized that my install (copy zip, boot, reboot) wasnt finishing properly and it appeared to not be booting from the sd, but it was, just that the sd contents were corrupt...
it will boot fine if the sd card is out OR if i format the card and it is empty. if i put a boot image on it nothing. first i thought it was the sd card but now ive tried it with 2 different ones and the image being wrote from 2 different card readers

Try different image writing software or a cheap usb reader.

edit: the 1.2 signed i got from here did the trick

Nook HD+ willl not boot from SD

I created a CWM SD card (SanDisk 8GB Class 4) and it booted CWM just fine, I backed up and installed Gapps and rooted it. Everything was working fine except I wanted to get "incompatible" apps to work from the Play store so I edited the build.prop (it worked for me in the past).
Then the next time it booted it would just loop the nook boot logo, so I ended up resetting the whole thing (back to 2.0.2). Then I registered it and updated it and it works fine (just no root or gapps).
But the only problem is now it won't boot from the SD card no matter what image I use. It just boots normally as if there was no SD card. The only reaction I got was from using the boot files from N2A (last ditch effort) and all that did was go to a blank screen after the nook logo.
So that's where I'm at, I can still use the nook for what it is, but I'd rather have root and the play store
Thanks
Read my HD/HD+ Tips thread and you will understand why your edit to the build.prop did not work. You cannot modify any /system file without it resetting itself. In fact, I think I told you that in my universal root thread.
It can sometimes be difficult to get the CWM SD to boot from a cold start (powered off). Maybe yry reburning the card again. I find sometimes I have to just keep trying, reinserting the card and powering off immediately when you see it is not going to boot to the SD, and starting again. But don't do this more than 8 times in a row without letting it boot to stock successfully at least once or it will reset.

Funny you should say that, because I just tried over and over and reburning and eventually it took! haha I was trying all day and finally got it working.
Everything is going good now, is there any way to fix the incompatible app issue on the play store? For now I can just download them elsewhere, but it would be nice to get em from the store

Nope. Just get them from 1mobile.com or Amazon, etc.

I was having a hell of a time trying to get the new HD+ to boot. Finally got it working everytime on boot using a 2GB card. I was previously using a 16GB class 10 card. I'm fortunate to still have these old 4GB and 2GB cards laying around. So if any of you are having issues I recommended trying that.
I'm having a similar issue. I put the CWM image onto a 16GB class 2 sandisk card and my nook hd+ just ignores it and boots normally. I used winimage. Has anyone had success with the 16gb class 2 sandisk? I have a 1gb card but that did not work either.
I'm following the instructions in this thread.

When I try reading the sdcard in my laptop after putting CWM on it the laptop tells me it needs to be formatted. Is that normal?
Thanks

Follow the directions in my HD/HD+ CWM thread linked in my signature. That is for stock CWM, but the procedure is the same.
It is not normal for Windows to say it needs to be formatted.

I formatted the card in the nook and made some progress with the rev6 sdcard tool, but the nook still ignores it when booting. The sdcard can be read on my laptop. I have lost.dir, mlo, u-boot, uImage, and uRamDisk. Only 8.3mb of the sdcard is used.
I noticed that when I tried to root the nook from the sd card, it will continuously boot regularly. I remember trying like 7-8 times and thought maybe it one on the nooks that would not boot from sd card no matter what.
I decided to format the sd card again and re-added all the needed files and somehow it just booted into the cwm screen. You would not believe how relieved I was not having to return it for another one.
I can only say be persistent and the sd card will get loaded.

Rev6? On an HD/HD+? That sounds like my Nook Color version. Are you sure you went to the right thread? HD/HD+ CWM thread?

I spent a couple hours trying to get my brand new HD+ to boot from a new SanDisk 64gb or an older Samsung 32gb. Neither booted - it'd always just boot to stock. For $9.99 @best Buy I got a PNY 4gb card with adapter. Formatted with SDFormatter, marked the partition active with MiniTool Partition Wizard. Copied the files linked in this thread. Under the "Obsolete Zips" section, I used the file:
NookHDplus-bootable-CWM-6028-for-stock-BOOTFILES-r4-(05.15.13).rar​
Extracted, copied to the SD.
Booted first try and several subsequent times. Enough to get my recovery & CM 10.1 all set.
Oops, I was looking at the nook color thread. I got it to work today on my 1gb card. I quickly ran out of storage, but I saw enough to be convinced to install CM10 on the internal memory. Thanks for your help.

[Q] Installing CM 10 on Nook HD+

I was installing CM from verygreen thread "http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2032364" Nook HD+ CM10 development (sdcard) updated 5/11.
I am using a san disk 32gb sd, i followed the steps unzip cwm image and write it to your sdcard using Win32 Disk Imager as he linked. Did that and booted into the nook hd, mounted it no problems. I haven't used ADB so i turned off the nook as it says to do and went to put the cm-10-20130511-UNOFFICIAL-ovation-sdcard.zip on the sd card. One problem the sd card now shows 116mb only of the 32gb and with no option to reformat it to make it larger. I tried formating from CWM didn't do anything. Pleas help i read the forums link for about 30mins with no answer to solve this problem. Just seen pushing ADB which i'm not familiar with. Thanks for any help suggestions.
I have an install guide for that ROM. Look at my HD+ easy install guide linked in my signature. I have a new image file there to help you.

Thank you! One problem so far, i went and installed the cm10 and gapps on the internal sd. i rewrote the sd card with your 6028cwm.
Once i insert he SD it says on the bottom CWM v6.0.2.7 and it wouldn't mount the emmc to install Cm10. I rewrote the sd card again and it said it took and still same thing.
Also tried your newer ramdisk but i can not rename my old ramdisk.cwm once its in my computer.
EDIT: I was using the Micro to full size SD adapter and that was locking it. I took the Micro and put it right into a micro sd card reader and BAM! Installing now.
Ran into this problem where it just locks up on booting, I take the SD card out stock nook works great. Loads to 99% then nothing, just hangs. I let it sit for an hour even.

You are confusing me. This thread I'd for HD+. Yet you say the CWM said v6.0.2.7, which is for the HD. You should not be following my old guide if you are using verygreen's new SD scheme.... Oh I see your other comment was an old one....
The reason it stopped at 99% is the old SD version has too many partitions to allow stock to boot. It hands at 99%. To fix the problem, remove the SD before booting to stock.

With no SD card in it works great on stock nook. The problem i'm running into is it wont boot to CM with the SD in. I get the cynogen start screen then a laggy cynogen loading then it goes to the stock nook with the 99%.
So the problem i am having is i cannot boot to CM with the SD card in. Without the card it works fine.
With the card in its boots to CM screen and the circle loads choppy and then it swaps to the nook 99%.
I just want the CM to boot. Any help will be greatly appreciate it. I can boot to CWR and i did mount the SD card and still same problem.

You need to abandon that SD setup and start fresh with verygreen's new SD scheme. The old setup had some bugs. His new setup work much better. So go to his HD+ sdcard CM10.1 thread and start over with his early 7.1 cwm image. Then install his latest ROM and gapps and you will be very happy.

[Q] Cyogenboot cannot load emmc or sdcard

I was running CM10.1 off of an sd card on my nook hd+. After I charged it over night the nook was frozen in the native OS showing 99% loaded. I rebooted it and now the nook freezes on the Black screen with the white nook name. I am able to boot into the cyogenboot menu but when I select install from emmc it says that it cannot mount. I've tried several versions of cyogen and i've tried taking the sd card out to boot to native OS, however now the native OS does not get past the Black screen with the white nook name. I think the EMMC is bricked? Anybody with any ideas?

There is no solution yet . verygreen has made a rom booting off sdcard . you may ask him for help.
I can't believe that you can brick the nook just by running CM10 on an SD card. is this just some issue with the HD+? Does the n2d card pose the same threat? Or is it just best to not run android on the HD+. It sucks because I feel like stock is very slow.
