you can do it more than one way, but the easy one is to download AIO tool then use the root button, or just go into the install directory and copy SuperUser 0.99.zip to sd card then flash it from recovery

If you have su.zip in your card, flash it from recovery and see if that helps.

Don't appologize for asking questions-we all need answers to one thing or another
The first thing you want to do is go to the android market and search for Rom Manager. You already have this installed if you are running CM7, but you need to update it to the newest version.
Then, Just open your app drawer and open up Rom Manager. When it opens, the very top line says "Flash Clockwork Mod Recovery". Tap on that, choose Nook Color, and it will update to the newest version 3.2.0.1.
Hope this Helps!
What's the best way to update recovery on sdcard? Mod manager only updates the internal flash..

I downloaded an updated version located HERE and extracted the files and attached them for you. Just download and unzip the files to your current CWM SD card.

Ok, thanks! So you can indeed copy the files as-is.. with Paleolithic dos 3.2 origin, I tend to expect you need to use special app to copy the system files. In any case, I've installed the boot menu on SD card so by defaults I boot internal flash. No need to lose sanity removing the easy-to-lose usd card.. I can also start the recovery from internal flash..

Yes, I have updated a couple times by just transferring the updated files onto my bootable CWM card. I have done a number of back-ups and restores without a problem. The files are self-contained file systems, so not much damage from a simple transferring of them. If you want to install a special app for windows to be able to update the SD card in the future, then I would download this very handy tool, ImDisk, it will allow windows to mount the updated img file and extract the files from it.

[Q] Make an image from a rom

Hello all,
I'm wondering if there's any way of make an image from my phone, with all the softwares and data already installed and configured (just like Macrium Reflect do on Windows). Just like a backup, so if I have any kind of problem, I just have to flash my .zip into the phone again.
Thanks in advance.
Have you tried ClockworkModRecovery?
Fruit cake maker is a better solution for your question. Plus if you name the .zip it creates pg58img.zip and place it on your SD card root. Then you don't even need cwm.

just make a backup through CWM menu, it will backup EVERYTHING on your phone and save to clockworkmod/backup/..... in your sdcard. The backup included few .tar files instead of a single .zip, but the result is the same --- you can restore it (overwrite everything) to your phone at anytime.

When you backup with the recovery menu(power+volume button simultaneously pressed until u see the android picture), you will find this backup files either in the EXT SD card or the Internal SD depending the CWM version, in the clockworkmod/backup. All you have to do is to get into recovery mode and restore.....it works perfectly
It worked!
That was just what I needed!
Many thanks for your help guys....

[LB][TWRP 2.6.0.0][CWM 6.0.3.2] ZRDualRecovery

Again I'm not the dev of these custom recovery. Just that I pack them together and modified a theme to work with our ZR phone.
Installation procedure:
1. Just unzip lockeddualrecovery2.6.0-RELEASE.windows.zip in your PC and run either supersu.bat or superuser.bat.
2. After all files are installed, your phone should reboot automatically into CWM.
3. If you're unable to see CWM and your phone just reboot normally to Android, then you might be suffering from remount-reboot issue. Just run the fix for remount-reboot first.
How to enter CWM/TWRP:
1. During a reboot, when the LED turns green, press VOL-UP for CWM or VOL-DOWN for TWRP. The LED will then turn purple before entering the selected custom recovery.
How to apply the proper theme in TWRP to fix UI issue:
1. Copy the TWRP_theme_720_play.zip into /sdcard/TWRP/theme and rename it as ui.zip
How to restore stock recovery
1. Delete the following files:
/system/bin/recovery.twrp.cpio.lzma (or .tar)
/system/bin/recovery.cwm.cpio.lzma (or .tar)
/system/bin/charger
/system/bin/ric
/system/bin/chargemon
/system/bin/dualrecovery.sh
2. Inside /system/bin/ rename chargemon.stock to chargemon
3. Change permission for chargemon (chmod 755 chargemon)
Credits:
- Team Win for TWRP
- ClockWorkMod for CWM
- z31s1g for the beautiful Holofied theme. I only rescaled some images and edit the xml for 720p display.
excuse me for my ignorance noobish question, but why do we need a dual boot recovery? whats special about twrp if we already have a fine working cwm? or perhaps if one prefers twrp why whould be need both?

This is actually a valid question. Personally, I prefer to use TWRP since it's touch based and support more functions. Maybe someone does need CWM for some reasons.

Are you using the INTERNAL SD card to store the ui.zip?
What do you see in TWRP? Similar to the Holofied them in this link?

TWRP folder is on internal sd card so i copy the ui.zip into internal sd/TWRP/theme.
But when i entering into TWRP mode, i can only see the partial screen which contain install, wipe and backup buttons in big icon.
And no way to get out of recovery mode except removing the battery.

So it seems TWRP is unable to read the theme file. Can you check if your ui.zip file is corrupted?
MD5 checksum is: 20B934657DB6E7F19E9D603DA7529B35
FXP compatible?
Does this work with FXP?

I guess the easiest way is to use something like 7zip in PC and use the Test function.

Simply put the root.zip file in your extSD without moving it in any folder just simply move or copy it in your extSD
Enter the recovery (cwm) menu by pressing Vol+ Home and power key and simply flash the root.zip file
You must be on CWM recovery not the stock one

Ohh sorry I did'nt knew it...
I never tried anything with stock recovery and never recommended anyone to use it for flashing purposes thinking that might cause the device to misbehave
Until I'am successful in trying any new thing with my device I don't recommend it to others thinking it may harm his/her device which was the reason I recommended him to be on CWM recovery...
BTW that you senior, I'll remember it in future
