Just use leapinlar's revision 2 root zip and you shouldn't have any problems.

write your sd card with the cwm proded by lepinlar
then write the sd card with the cwm image after unzipping it
take it out of computer and put it in nook
you will see cyanoboot screen, after this it will go into clock work mod
after in clockwork mod scroll down into the mounts and storage
select mount sd card
then turn off nook manually and insert the sd back into computer
download leapinlar's revision 2 zip for your device
put the zip on sd card and DO NOT unzip it
then with nook off insert the sd
it will boot into cwm
now go to install zip from sd
select download zip from external sd
select the leapinlar zip that you already put on the sd card
now select yes on the screen with the no's and on yes
it will quikly install the zip into your nook and root it
now when finished remove the sd and THEN turn it off
turn it back on and it will turn on normally but with some more apps installed
if every thing is done right you will see the option to use zeam launcher when you press the "n" button
now select use as default and select the zeam launcher
go into apps and open super user at least once before using any sort of root apps
now that you have rooted you will probably want gapps so download the leapinlar zip for gapps on the nook (NOT any other gapps zip just leapinlar's) or do it the long way and install it to the sd card like you did before when you rooted it
now insert the sd into the nook while off
turn the nook off
turn the nook back on so it boots into cwm
go to install zip from sd
pick install zip from internal (the last option)
now pick downloads forlder and the gapps zip
select yes on the screen with the no's and one yes
it will install the gapps zip
now take the sd out and THEN turn off
now turn on
it will turn on then update apps then reboot and upate apps
when you go into the app drawer you will see the play store
if the play store is not there than you should retry the process

Oh dear, I made things a lot easier than that! I just burned the CWM card, copied the three zips I planned to install to the card, put it in the powered off Nook, booted into CWM, choose "install zip from card", picked my zips and installed them one by one in one go and then rebooted after all three where installed.. As per instructions in Leapinjar's topic.

[Q] Updating to the latest nightly on CM7 SD installation?

So I'm booting from a SD card into CM7 7.0.2 currently. I'm using a custom boot file so I can choose to hold down the home screen button if I want to boot into the stock 1.2 OS instead.
I only have this single 2gb SD card to use atm. What would be the proper process to update to the nightly 69 build from here? I need to make sure that when I update, my current SD card is in there and that's where the install is saved to. I had an issue prior where I booted with an alternate SD card (which I no longer have) and it installed to the eMMC. That wasn't fun as I had to do a complete restore.
Thanks!
I am booting from an SD card.
To update, I put the uSD card in the PC and then just copy the new build zip file to the uSD card.
Then I put the card in the Nook, press the N + power button and when I see the "Touch the Future of Reading", count to 4 and release the buttons. Don't count to slow. I noticed one time the TTFOR disappeared and it booted into the Nook software. I just shut it down and did it again.
The Nook will automatically see the new zip file, expand it and load the new build. Once done, it will delete the zip file from the uSD card.
I noticed the newer builds automatically reboot the unit but if yours doesn't, it will stop at "Flushing Cache" and sit there. Leave it alone until the screen goes dark (a couple of minutes) and then reboot it (N + power button). You should get the Android. and about a minute later the CM7 spinning logo.
You are updated. And you don't lose any apps or data either!
If you are overclocking, I would set it back to 800MHz before you do this as a precaution.
Finally, there is an easy way to add overclocking to a new build. You just need the overclock zip file, the new build and WinRAR 3.80. Let me know if you want that info.
Well that worked as you said, thanks! I did have one problem but I fixed it myself. As I mentioned, I have a modified boot file which loads the Nook OS if I hold the N button. So trying to get into recovery or have the CM7 noticed the .zip file by holding Power+N didn't work. Luckily I still had the original u-boot.bin file and was able to copy it back onto the SD card and then I was able to get the update installed.
As to the OC, I assume I'd just put it back on the same way I did with the original.
I've read your post, and a few others but I'm either not understanding (my money is on this one!!!!) or missing a step.
I'm running Nook Color Stock 1.2 on emmc and CM 7 on the SD card.
I've tried using ROM Manager as well as copying the latest nightly to the /boot partition of the SD card.
If I boot into recovery and update the zip from the SD, I always end up over-writing the emmc of the nook, losing stock and all my apps, instead of the CD card being updated.
What am I doing wrong?? Would like to upgrade to the latest nightly. But I don't want to screw up stock (hate having to restore and redownload all the apps every time).
Thanks
No matter what I do, I always end up over-writing the emmc instead of updated the SD card.

All you have to do is put the update zip on the boot part' of the sd card and boot up the sd install like normal and it'll see the zip and automatically flash it for you.

If you're booting CM7 off uSD, you can forget about the "ROM Manager".

You are probably using the install zip option. You do not do this. You just put the zip on the boot partition, boot into recovery and the reboot. DO NOT flash anything.

Let me try to clarify... when they are saying boot into recovery... they aren NOT meaning Clockwork Recovery... they mean using the boot menu (press "n" button when you see the Cyaonogen logo) and selectin boot from SD card and Recovery. That is the SASD rocovery (install) mode and will install the update zip file from the root of the boot partition.
Thanks for clarifying DizzyDen!!! That's the part that I was screwing up
Like I just screwed up the Stock again...but that's alright...live and learn
Updating the latest right now...then I'll be putting stock back on emmc
Thanks again for the clarification
Updating to the latest nightly on CM7 SD installation?
I'm a newbie so please have some patience. I'm trying to do the same thing, update my cm_encore_full-159.zip to cm_encore_full-177.zip. I boot from a microsd card to Android. When I install it I pushed a button during the early boot process and went to a menu. Changed "boot device" from "emmc" to "SD" and "Normal" to "Alternative". When I turn on the Nook Color after it installs, I do nothing and it boots to Android but if I put a button it goes to the menu where I push the volume down button 3 times and I boot to the stock Nook Color. So, if I copy the cm_encore_full-177.zip to my microsd card, go to the menu, change the "emmc" to "SD" and "Normal" to "Alternative, this should update my 159 to 177 without losing any apps, email, etc.? Thanks

1. in bold text above... select "Recovery" not Alternative...
2. you either move the SD to your computer to put the update on the boot partition of the SD or you have to mount /dev/block/mmcblk1p1 to a directory (I created /sdcard/boot for this) and push the update to the BOOT partition.
Nook Color How to Update to CM7 Nighthly
Good Day,
What a fantastic website! I am new to the forum. Could you please answer the questions or provide a link to the answers?
1. What utility and procedure would I follow to back up the stock Nook Color partitions in ROM to include the stock Nook Color apps I have installed?
2. What utility and procedure would I follow to back up the apps I have purchased from the Android Market place for CM7 running off the SD card?
3. I have update-cm-7.0.0-encore-signed.zip installed. I want to update to cm_encore_full-177.zip. Do I use win32image to "burn" the new nightly to the SD card? Or, do I drag and drop the new
nightly to the SD card? If yes, on which directory (folder) on the SD card do I place the new nightly build?
Thank you!
atl10spro
Try my best to help.
1. I don't deal with stock, so can't help here.
2. I never intend to run any backup when booting off uSD, can't help.
3. Assuming you're booting off uSD, then just copy the new .zip file (do not rename, do not unzip) into the boot partition (root folder) of the card. Insert it into the NC, boot it into Recovery. When it's in recovery mode, it'll fully automatically do the update then deletes the .zip file, you don't have to do anything, just wait until it shuts itself down then you power it up.
I am running the following - CM7 - nightly build 08022011 on SD - Dalingrin's OC kernel 2.6.32.9 @ 1200MHz NOOKcolor
I am trying to update to a newer nightly build. I have the file downloaded on the SD card but can't get it to update.
Where does the file have to go?
I tried to reboot into recovery mode and that didn't do anything.
Any help would be great.

[Q] CM7.1 on SD...CWM on eMMC...wanna update to 1.3

Well from following some instructions on here for running CM7 off an sd card I ended up installing CWM that I did not know would go to the eMMC. So I have stock nook 1.2 software and CWM on the eMMC (by mistake), and CM7.1 on SD. I want to remove CWM off the eMMC so I can update to 1.3 and to unvoid my 2 year extended warranty. I have read through threads about returning to stock, but I haven't seen anyone with my same problem using those methods to confirm if it would work in this situation. Everyone seems to have been running some kind of root on eMMC and want to keep cwm. Also with my CM7.1 sd card out I can't get into cwm even though its on the eMMC and I have tried many ways. Do I need to have an update file on an sd card in order to get cwm to run?
Might want to post to the thread for the SD card install.
Use the second file in the first post of the link below. It will restore 1.2 stock and remove CWM from the eMMC. You will have to re-register your Nook.

1. Do I need to de-register my Nook first?
2. Will CWM 3.2.0.1 work for this?
2. If I put the file on a SD card and power on the Nook will it automatically go to CWM?
3. Is the factory reset and option in the CWM menu?

1. Nope.
2. Yes.
2b. No. Turn off your Nook. Then press power & the N button together and hold for 5 seconds.
3. Yes.
I had the same issue and followed the directions in the other thread with success.

Actually if you have a separate bootable CWM microSD card (3.2.0.1 should be fine as 416 said) the Nook will default to booting from the SD card when you power on. No need to hold the N button. If the update file (zip format) I pointed to is on the SD card then you can pick it and install from the CWM menu that will come up. (I would make a backup of your current state onto the bootable CWM SD card first and copy the files to your PC just in case.)

EDIT* Ok guys here is my problem now. For the life of me it would not boot into recovery, so I tricked it by trying to install the 1.3 update which goes in CWM but fails. Once in the CwM menu after 1.3 failing I mounted the sd card and tried installing the zip that was on it. When trying to install it says installation failed and something else about verification failed similar to the 1.3 failed. Any help guys?
Would my next option be to create a CWM bootable SD? Anyone have the appropriate link?

Hrm.. seems like that may be beyond my paygrade...
Just to clarify (and sorry I can't be more specific as I just removed CWM, so I can't repeat my steps), when I did it:
1. I downloaded the aforementioned zip onto a spare sd.
2. I booted into CWM (it seems like your trick should be fine, after it gets you back to the main menu).
3. I selected "choose zip from SD" or something like that.
4. I selected choose zip from sd again (ignoring the "update.zip" option).
5. It did it's thing.
6. I selected back several times, to get main menu again.
7. I selected "factory reset" (wipe data & cache)
8. It did it's thing.
9. Reboot and I was good to go.
If that doesn't work, this thread has the instructions on taking it back to stock by creating a CWM card.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=931720
Hope it helps.
This is what I did
1. placed the zip file on a sd card
2. insert into the nook
3. power on
4. cant boot into recovery so placed the 1.3 update on emmc to fool it into going into recovery
5. 1.3 update failed but just used it to get into recovery
6. mounted sd card
7. select install zip from sd card
8. chose the file from sd card
9. yes install file from sd card
10. did not get a progress bar like the 1.3 update b4 failing
11. install failed...verification error (similar to 1.3 update error)
The problem with the thread you linked is that its using CWM 3.0.0.5 when the thread about restoring NC 1.2 says it need at least CWM 3.0.1.0
Hrmm... maybe the zip is a bad file? Have you tried downloading it again?
Beyond that, someone with more expertise may need to chime in.
Sorry about the out-of-date thread. It's just the one I bookmarked after I realized I had accidentally installed CWM to my emmc instead of my SD. I never got around to it; dtbrewer's post today seemed like an easier fix.
I got it guys. I used this site to make a bootable sd...http://mrm3.net/nook-color-updated-clockwork-recovery-bootable-sd/
Wrote the image to the sd installed the zip file and now I'm updated to 1.3 on the stock software and my 2 year extended warranty isn't voided anymore. THANKS GUYS!

Posted this in another thread, but thought I'd ask here as well. If you follow the fix listed in this thread, can you use the dual boot sd card and still have B&N 1.3? Or does updating to 1.3 mean you can no longer use the dual boot sd card. What I'd ideally like to have is dual boot from SD, but when I choose to boot to emmc, it will run the 1.3 B&N firmware. Is that even possible?

First, you'll need to insert your SD card into your computer; where you're in a position where you can write on the card. (Files links/sources/information was sourced from http://forum.xda-developers.com/show....php?t=2062613 by leapinlar)1.Write the CWM .img (NookHD+bootable-CWM-6023-for-emmc-stock-4GB.zip) onto the SD Card using "Win32diskimager in Windows or use the dd command in Linux or OSX".
2. Download NookHD+Universal-Root.zip and place it within the SD Card. Also do this for the GAPPS + EXTRAS (including ManualOTA and Unknown Sources) .zip file, which you can download here (put together by leapinlar). DO NOT extract the .zip, just place them into the SD card.
3.At this point, make sure you have registered your Nook HD+, updated and installed version 2.0.5. Also make sure you have launched the stock ROM at least once (i.e. turned on the device into the Nook software/modified Android OS).
4.Now, turn off your device (hold the power button until a message is displayed on screen, and press shut down, or similar on screen). At the bottom of the Nook, on the left of the charging port, there is a cover protecting the SD card slot. Take it out (not all the way, it's attached to the body), and place in your SD card (with the CWM and universal root, as well optionally the GAPPS; although recommend installed on the SD card).
5.With the SD card in, turn your Nook on. After a few seconds, you should load into CWM. Select the option "install .zip from SD card" (use volume up/down to move across the list, "n" button below screen to select, and power button to move up one menu).
6.Firstly, install "NookHD+Universal-Root.zip". Wait for it to fully install, then install the GAPPS + Extras.
7.After the last step, reboot your device and take out the SD card before reboot. You should now load into your stock OS, whilst being rooted and and GAPPs installed on version 2.0.5. Success!
There is something I'm not getting or it's too advanced for me.... Is there a step by step somewhere?

What you missed was installing the gapps + extras zip. Or if you did install it, it failed. Sometimes with some users their PC (anti-viral software) corrupts the file on download. Either try the unknown sources zip or try downloading the gapps + extra to your nook and use the install from internal option in CWM to install it.

[Q] Rooting a Nook HD?

I have some questions.
Do I have to root to put on a new ROM?
How do I put CWM on it?
How do I root?
Do I need an SD card?
Please help, would mean a lot. Thanks.
You do not need to root to put a new ROM on.
Go to the dummies guide to see how to put CWM on and a new ROM. Here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2317500
And yes, you need an SD card to do all that.
If you just want to root stock and not install a new ROM, go to my HD/HD+ CWM thread linked in my signature.

The issue is you used my older 6027 version of CWM. It does not ask that question. The solution is to use my Universal Root rev 3 zip and it uses verygreen's unlocker as part of the zip. So it does the same thing his does and adds a few goodies too.

[Q] Nook HD+ Install issue Status 7

Hi Guys, needing a bit of help to see if I can get my Nook HD+ back up and running.
A little background. Nook is 2013 model. Has worked pretty well in past, had added files last year to allow access to Play and flash, worked well, so I came back here when my nook went to the 99% reboot screen and has locked up there. B&N can't seem to help any. None of my computers will recognize the nook, so I can't sideload the NPK update that they said might fix the nook. So after laughing at their offer of an extra 10% off an ereader or the new Samsung, I decided to try changing to CM's Ovation. Have tried to follow Leapinlar's thread on installing CM and have tried 10.2,10.1 and a version of 11 along with another d/l of 10.2 from another poster.
I can boot from the SD card, but with really no currently working ROM, I need to use the install to internal version.
So I've used SD formatter on the SD card, copied over the files in order listed and then booted to the card.
Did a backup and restore, worked
did wipe data and factory reset
then install from sd card,
the system then gives me an error when installing the CM files:
Set_perm: some changes failed
E:Error in /sdcard/CM XXXX (no matter which CM I pick)
(status 7)
Installation aborted.
Any idea as to how I can resolve this?
I'm at a loss and can't find resolution.:crying:
Thank you!!
What recovery exactly are you using to try and install CM? The one you boot from SD card? What version is it?
Some recoveries are too old to install CM11, for example. I suggest you install TWRP 2.7.1.0 as internal recovery on your Nook. You can download it here. Just put that TWRP zip file onto your bootable SD card, boot the HD+ and install the zip file. Then remove the SD card and format it, or use a different one that isn't bootable. Put the CM11 install zip file onto the card, insert it, and boot the internal recovery by holding the "N" button and powering up the tablet. Keep the N button pressed until the TWRP splash screen shows. If TWRP doesn't boot, then something went wrong. If it does boot, you can try and install CM11 with it.

Yes, as the prior user said, you are using the wrong version of CWM to install the CM zip. CM10.1 and CM10.2 need v6028 or v6036. CM11 needs v6046. You can get them from the dummies thread linked in my signature.

I have tried to follow the thread instructions and used what appeared to be matching installers, if I didn't, I did see error for not matching. I'll go and try above recovery. Got to probably get another sd card.

Tried all three of these in that order. none worked. I'll go try above and see if it will work.
