I installed CM10 on a 4GB PNY SD Card and when I rebooted after installation, my HD+ got stuck on the Cyanoboot screen. I rebooted a few times but it never gets past the Cyanoboot screen. Any ideas? Thanks.

The problem is that PNY card. It is terrible with ROMs on SD. You need a SanDisk class 4.

I C. Thanks leapinlar. And oh the excitement over Eclair. Wow how far we have come. Remember when multitasking on Android was new (Recent Apps Window in ICS)? Even that feels like it was ages ago.
Sorry for bothering.
Tried with Samsung 32GB Class 10, no go. Was that one supposed to work? Considering it's a high-class, I assume not, but I'm not sure. Gonna buy a class 4 sandisk, I guess. The thing is that I'm not sure I'm doing the installation correctly because the first option is to adb but that doesn't work when the tablet is in recovery. It should be the same thing because the adb is just pushing to the root of the card. Sorry for bothering.

ADB is not working with CWM because the driver address is different. Search some of the HD+ threads for instructions how to fix this. You can also use a Mac or Linux to copy the file.

The screen dims, the logo doesn't. It says cyanoboot for as long as I leave the tablet on. The installation was successful. I'm using the "cm-10-20130120-UNOFFICIAL-ovation" zip. I still don't have adb working in CWM so I made a "CM10SDCARD" folder and put the zip in there. Then I booted into CWM and flashed it. I also tried just keeping the zip in the root of the folder.
Btw, just wondering, are we ever gonna get a full CM10 installation, on internal memory?

You made a CM10sdcard folder where? On the boot partition? And you were able to find it with CWM to flash? I'm concerned that you did not really flash it. You did use verygreen's CWM, not mine, right?
Edit: Now that I think about it, I know that is what you did, you used my CWM. That explains everything, the symptoms. Otherwise you could not have found that zip on the boot partition with CWM. And my CWM does not partition the SD for putting a ROM on it. The installation zip would install the boot files to my CWM but since the rest of the SD is not partitioned, not the CM10 files. So when cyanoboot comes up, there is no CM10 to load. So start over burning his CWM.
And don't get in a hurry for CM10 on emmc. It won't happen soon, if ever. Remember emmc has a locked bootloader.

Thanks leapinlar. I'll try today. Yeah, I know the bootloader is locked. I wish CM would pick up the HD+ and HD, but that's not gonna happen. Both are absolutely solid devices. WE NEED MORE DEVS! That's not to say that you're not awesome. Do you think a newer release of CM10 than the one I plan on flashing is satisfactorily stable?

I use 01-08. It is very stable. I get an occasional reboot, but the newer builds reboot a lot for me.
And remember, if CM picks up the devices, they still need a local dev to maintain the device specific needs. So you are no better off than you are now. The only difference is automatic nightlies, which are now weeklies now for CM10.

That is what I meant when I said earlier that you could not have been putting that CM rom on the boot partition. That is why you need ADB. Either that or Linux. They are both hard to do. Look in verygreen's thread over the last few weeks. There are instruction there by users. His instructions are not very good.

This too hard to explain to you. I hate explaining to people how to make it work. I spent weeks explaining and re-explaining how to do ADB. Everyone's system requires different steps. I recommend you look on the web on how to make an Ubuntu live CD. You just make that CD and put it in the CD drive and it boots to Ubuntu. Put your card in the card reader and it sees the partition it needs to be copied too.

Hello all!
New Nook Color owner here. Love the little thing but I'm not sure what to do next!
Ideally I'd like to root it, get the CM7 nightlies on it, and have a generally stable system. There's lots of resources and tutorials on it, but where do I start? What tweaks should I apply? What's the best nightly build so far (one with deep sleep working)? should I install on the emmc or on a class 2 sandisk?
Help would definitely be appreciated.

Starting with the SD card install of CM7 will let you try it without any risks, so try that first. Sandisc Class 2 is fast enough for it, although be aware there will be little lags here and there, particularly in the market.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1000957
The biggest problem for some people is writing the image to the card.. If it doesn't boot into CM7, it didn't burn right, period.
I suggest you put both the CM7 nightly and the Google Apps on the SD card for the initial install and it'll install both at the same time. When you get booted and you're setting up your Google Account hit the menu button and you'll be able to connect to wifi, then continue through setup normally.
yup having the right tools is the beginning:
SD cards probably 2 or 3, 4 gb sandisk cards Class-2 or 4
If you plan to move your stock B N to a bootable sandisk card, get an 8 GB one as well.
Then either 16 or 32 gb.
All of these of course sandisk.
You'll need a reader either small one directly for those disks or use a SD adapter.
Thanks for the responses guys. Long-term, would installing to the eMMCbenefit me more than on the SD, speedwise?

I think that if you have very little use for the stock software, which would be basically for the special ebooks that have some interactive aspects. i.e. the little elephant.
Then you might as well emmc the alternative rom.
Now, if you use the nook as a ereader a lot and have a lot of books already and some of them interactive, you have the option of dual boot, boot of the sdcard (either the alt rom, or moving the stock over to the SD card).
It really depends.
I haven't bought any books outside of the ones that came with the nook color and so, I just backed up my stock rom and nandroided it. Eventually, I came to a night where I wanted to let my kids check out elephant story, so I ended up reflashing the stock, pushing the stock over to an SD card, so if I ever need to boot up that book for them, I can do it.
Otherwise I use cm7 for everything I need.
FWIW, full instructions on installing to emmc are here. Don't bother installing Dalingrin's OC kernel though separately, as it is already included with the recent CM7 nightlies.

I have run it from both the eMMC and uSD. I really don't notice a difference.
I run from uSD using verygreen's "size agnostic..." guide now because I really like my stock B&N experience too so I put the stock ROM back on the eMMC. This way I can return it no problems if it needs warranty work...
Btw, putting CM7 on it is not rooting it, you are completely replacing the ROM on it. Rooting means leaving the stock ROM on it, and modifying it to allow for additional apps and marketplaces.

Wrong. CM7 is pre-rooted. Rooting means gaining SU (administrator) privileges. This is used to give you more control and functionality on ANY rom or phone.

Just wanting some opinions here.
I was wondering what the consensus is on running ROMs on Nook HD+ is. I heard SD cards were unstable (I have a Kingston Class 4 32GB), and I wasn't sure how easy it is to go back to stock from a ROM.
Any recommendations? Thanks in advance!
Edit: I should add that I do not have any real problems with the stock ROM except weird issues (ie: SoundCloud's app/webpage won't play the songs I uploaded to it).
I just took the plunge and did the full wipe and installed on internal memory. I tried the Sd method first and was not having good luck on a Sandisk 32Gb Class 4 card. So far everything is working great.

I say just do it without the SD card. I think I've seen the stock ROM around here somewhere if you really miss it.

The error was because you were using verygreen's small 1GB image, there is not room enough there for a backup. If you followed the 'Dummies Guide' it would tell you to use my 4GB image so you had room on the SD to do a backup of stock first.

For the benefit of those who might read this thread in the future and are less sure of what they want to do:
In my opinion, whether you should keep the stock firmware around depends mainly upon how much you enjoy the stock Nook app(s). The Nook shopping/reading app for Android which can be found on the Play Store is inferior, and is so in some ways that are important to me. If you use it, you lose the capacity for multi-color highlights, and the UI is generally clunkier. This may improve, though, and if it does, I'd wholeheartedly endorse always going straight for a native CM install. In general, it's vastly superior.
Greetings, I recently bought myself a nook HD and tried to install CWM recovery on it, but it doesn't take. No matter how many times I boot with the SD card, using the win32diskimager with CWM-6027 image being written. It just...doesn't take. Was 2.1.1 implemented to prevent the SD card from booting? Or is it something I've done wrong during the process (Currently lacking a Micro>standard converter, so I've been using my old android phone as a mount, could this be it). Please let me know! I really want Cyanogen on this locked down device! Thank you!

New HD SD card booting (rooting) problem?
Well, I have a microSD card for rooting that boots fine in the two HD+ models I bought last June (I just verified this today), but will not boot in the new HD units I bought today.
So, something is different. I'm checking it out, but I thought I'd post this in the interim ...
Edit: Like an idiot, I _ASSUMED_ that because rooting procedures work on both the Nook HD+ and HD, that the bootable SD card is identical. Once I installed the CWM boot for the HD card, booting and rooting were seamless.

Help
Ok so I managed to install cm-11-20140706-UNOFFICIAL-bok-ovation. Installation ran smoothly and everything was fine (kitkat running ok and I was able to go into main menu etc.), until I powered off the device. I remembered the display sort of paused for a brief moment and the device powered down. As I turned it back on, it boots back to the original factory rom.
I've lost my back up rom and cynoboot now only allow selection of either no.1 (boot from Stock ROM), or no. 4 (boot CWM recovery).
I have tried installing the newer ROM (cm-11-20140804-UNOFFICIAL-bok-ovation) but it says E: Can't Open /emmc /cm-11-20140804-UNOFFICIAL-bok-ovation.zip (bad) -tried downloading the file again with same result..
Out of desperation I tried all the menu functions from wiping and formatting to hard resetting it, but nothing happens. It can still boot to Stock ROM fine though. Any help to get this thing rooted with kitkat running is much appreciated..
Patience is the key ...

Patience. No, I'm not good at it either, but combined with the slower operations on the bootable microSD card, I had to wait about 15-20 minutes for the revolving arrow to stop. Touch the screen occasionally, so that the processor stays up to speed (I shouldn't think that necessary, but it stopped revolving when I touched the screen after about 20 minutes).
Noob Questions
I realize these questions will likely seem obvious to everyone, but I couldn't find an answer looking through the forum, so I figured I would ask before proceeding to try this;
The instructions say to download the SD Card Image - I see the links under "SD Card Images", but I also see similar looking links under "Cyanoboot Sources"
Example: SD Card Images: HD: sdcard-hummingbird-cm11.0-v1.img
Cyanoboot Sources: HD: u-boot-hummingbird-cm11.tgz
My question is are these the same thing? Do I need both? One or the other?
Maybe some helpful info: I have a Stock Nook HD 8gb running 2.2.0, never done anything to it other than the factory updates.
Thanks in advance.
Thanks for the great posts
I want to thank everyone for the outstanding work here that allowed a complete noob to take my stale 2 year old Nook HD from blah to WOW in a few simple steps.
I really worried about getting a good SD card, but I was able to exFat format an ADATA 64GB Class 10 card which then tested to 1.62 MB/s on Random Write 4KB (QD=32) on CrystalDiskMark (5 iterations, 50MB). Already owned it as I actually purchased it for the nook, but it seemed like it would not store on the external card.
I followed the instructions exactly as posted on page 1 of this thread and I have the following results: (All confirmed with Screenshots I hope will post)
Total space: 57.12GB! (dramatic improvement over factory Nook HD)
Up time: 18+ hours and going strong with NO forced restarts
Android Version: 4.4.4!

KK woks fine on my nook hd, except that I am unable to use kobo, as it can't find my connection to allow me to sign in, and also can't use another app because when I try to aces it's store for my previous purchases I get an SSL error. Is there any way to update this version of KK I installed, or is there a different way to do this so that I can update on a regular basis? Thanks

If you want to keep using this SD based kk, you have no choice but to wait for bokbokan to update to a new version. Other versions of kk will not work on the SD setup.

As Spock used to say, there are always possibilities

There is Verygreen's SD-bootable variant (HD+ only): http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2600572
cm_cache not on EMMC
Is there the option of moving the cm_cache off of the EMMC? My EMMC is trim bricked and doesn't work; I am trying to figure out how to move cm_cache to the SD card.

Search the forum for the term noemmc. Verygreen made an SD version of CM so it does just that for bricked emmcs.

I'm wanting to put 4.4 or what ever is latest stable on my HD+. I have a Mac so the win disk image tool won't do me any good.
Which thread should I look at? There are so many release and threads. I want to use the SD card for the new OS. Not to blow away my current Nook OS.
Thanks,
Steve

I'm not sure there is a version of CM11 that can run on SD, but there are many CM10 -CM10.2 threads that give files and instructions.

With the CM11 install that I have seen on here, does it boot straight into 4.4 no Nook at all? If so what happens to my current data?
I don't mind if it runs 4.4 or was even looking at the CM12.1. I have an iPad Air that I mostly use, but love this Nook and have had it for a while, I figured that I would make use of it.

If you run CM11 or CM12 it directly replaces the ROM and data already there. No stock is left. All data is wiped.

Actually either verygreen and bokbokan released sdcard builds of cm11 for ovation, but they were updated last november.

There are no instructions for SD card install in verygreenś thread, but I think you can follow the same procedure detailed in cm10.x sdcard instrucutions.
I did a CM11 install that is in leapinliar's post, was pretty easy to do.
If I wanted to update to CM12.1 or put twrp on what would I need to do?

I think leapilar listed almost everything useful to nook hd(+) in his signature.
IIRC, I took these steps to have both recovery and rom in my ovation emmc:
1) create a micro SD card with a recovery (you probably did it already when flashed cm11)
2) Download a newer (cm12 compatible) recovery and copy to sdcard (I'm using emmc twrp 2.8.6.0 built by amaces but there are older builds compatible, including cwm)
3) flash recovery (it'll replace nook stock recovery with the one you're flashing. People says it may be more difficult to fix your nook in case you experience emmc issues. I've never had any issues so I can't tell)
4) reboot to newer recovery, wipe /data, /cache, /dalvik-cache and /system, then flash cm12.1 rom with cm12.1 gapps (cm12 gapps won't work in cm12.1 and vice versa)
PS: I'm afraid .img files aren't flashable via recovery. To flash 2.8.6.0 I used Flashify. You can get it in play store and use it if you are rooted. This will make the process a lot easier since you won't need to prepare an sdcard.
