[Q] Nook HD+ does not even boot from an image card - Nook HD, HD+ Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I just got a Nook HD+ yesterday, with firmware 2.0.6. I really want to get it work on CM10.
I have tried both the Original SD method here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=38153094#post38153094
and the Hybrid HD method as found here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=38153094#post38153094.
I used WinImage to write the image to SD card (Sandisk, class 4, 32 GB). Everything seems to work fine.
However, my Nook HD+ never boots from SDcard.
I also tried the stock root http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2062613, but nothing happens.
It still doesn't boot into CMW mode.
PLEASE HELP!! (

I personally do not like using WinImage. I like win32diskimager. And you need to use an external USB card reader rather than any built into your PC. And run the program in administrator mode and close all other windows apps. It sometimes is very difficult to get the SD burned so that it will boot in the Nook.

Thank you so much for your suggestions. I will change from WinImage to Win32Diskimager and I will also close all other programs while writing the image. I will tell you today whether it works or not.

Hey! My nook hd+ still doesn't boot into cmw mode though I've to Win32Disk Image. I've tried changing another SD card.
Nothing happens. It still boots from original Nook mode.

It took me a few days as well but I was successful today. The problem I was having was with an SDHC card that did not want to cooperate. What brand, size and class is the card you are using? Which method are you using to get CM10 running?
I used leapinlars Easy Install guide and tools for the original SD. I did not Root my device. I saved the Gaaps and CM10 images to the internal memory of the HD+. I used CWM that was part of the image that Leapinlars linked to in the guide to install them from there.

I am using Sandisk Class 4 32GB to operate. The first method I was trying was Original SD method, but it wasn't successful as my nook hd+ didn't boot into CMW mode. So, I wrote another image (Hybride SD) into my card, still didn't work though.
I also tried using Kingston class 4- 4GB, but the nook still failed to boot from SD. (

I have this problem all the time with my card, its such a pain in the ass. it eventually will boot into cwm, but sometimes i have to pop the sdcard in and 9 or 10 times booting into normal before eventually it clicks right and boots cwm properly. I have no idea why because the card is recognized when the system boots up to normal mode, but for some reason it just skips cwm 95% of the time.

My new device does this a lot. It is very hard to get it to boot from powered off (cold boot) at all with the card inserted. I have to remove the SD to even get it to turn on. Then I can get it to boot to stock. I have stock rooted so I installed Quick Boot and I tell it to reboot after I insert the SD. Since it is then performing a warm boot, it works. I do not have this issue with my old device.

What do you mean by 'I have to remove the SD to even get it to turn on. Then I can get it to boot to stock.'? So, I have to remove the card, turn it on, and then put the card back while the nook is power on?.

Yes. But if yours boots to stock anyway, you don't have to do that. Just boot to stock and use quick boot to do a warm reboot.

For those having troubles booting into CM10 at the first try - booting into stock and restarting with Quick Boot should work every time, regardless of the SD card. Not ideal, but at least consistent.

Yes, but I was going to add this to my earlier post, Quick Boot only works if you have stock roooted.

You can't.
Edit: The only other thing to try is to get ADB working on stock and go to advanced shell and issue the commanr reboot. Then it should warm boot to CWM. - nah, you have to be rooted for that to work too.

OMG!! After sitting in front of a computer hours by hours, my hd+ finally boots into CM10. I almost threw my nook away. I have been reformatting, rewriting, and reinserting the card into the device hundreds of times until it gets to work.
I was using the Hybrid HD method.
I already tried rebooting the device and it still boots from CM10. However, I unluckily powered it off and on again, the device booted into original Nook mode.
and now I cannot get it back into CM10.............................................

You need to get my stock CWM to boot at least once so you can flash root and play store. Then you can use quick boot to warm boot to CM10.
Sent from my Nook HD+ running CM10 on Hybrid SD

I think I didn't flash root yet because I follow the Hybrid method from your instruction.
My nook hd+ went into CMW mode once, so I flash CM10, hybrid converter, and gapps.
I have already set Google Play store and downloaded some apps from it including Quick Boot.
At first try, I rebooted it from Quick Boot and it started with CM10. Then, I tried power off from Quick Boot and I instantly turned it on, it still turned on in CM10 mode.
The last time I customized something, I power it off from the nook button, and now when I turned it on it went into Nook mode. I turned of and on several times last night and it was still in Nook mode.
Then, I powered it on with power adapter plugged in (I owned Nook Tablet and knew that sometimes we need to plug in to get it booted into CM7); however, it doesn' t work for nook hd+. I got upset last night and decided to go to sleep. Before sleep I charged my nook with power adapter. My nook last night was still in nook mode while charging.
Surprisingly, I woke up this morning and saw that my nook was in CM10 mode.
Any idea why it is like this? I don't dare to power it off again.

If you can get to the Hybrid CWM, you can flash my root and gapps zips with that and they will get installed to stock because they are hard coded to do that. Then you can boot to stock and install quick boot and use that to warm boot to CM10.

I already flash gapps zips and installed Quick Boot. But every time I power off the device, it always starts in Nook mode.
How to get back into CWM mode again?

Some devices just do not boot to SD well from a cold start. That is why I said to root stock and install Quick Boot since most devices will boot to SD from a warm start.
And to get to CWM from a warm start, once the cyanoboot logo comes on, hold the power and n key together for a few seconds and release (not too long or it will power off again). CWM should boot.

Nook color won't turn on, won't boot sd card

Well I don't know what I did but this morning when my nookie froyo emmc was at 20 percent it decided to turn off and not turn on and won't turn on when charged and will not boot any sd cards. I feel stupid but after my nook working on emmc froyo for a week and now its not even turning on I feel very stupid. All help is appreciated, thanks!
Sent from my ADR6300 using Tapatalk
Have you tried booting to the CWR card yet? And using Samuelhalff's zip that restores the stock partitions? This seems to have worked for many people experiencing the fatal Froyo crash. Take a look at the 'Easily Restore to Stock" thread found here in the Nook forums. And in the end if your device truly won't turn on, then chances are the guys down at B&N won't be able to either. *Warranty*
Well I have tried monster root pack as a card but I haven't tried stock partitioning,i dont know where the thread is. But will this let me even boot an sd card ?

I recommend flashing this ROM instead though (pre-rooted 1.1):
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=932145
And yes if you insert the CWR sdcard into the nook and hold the power button, it will power on. The reason it isnt powering on currently is because your froyo boot partition is corrupted, not because of the nook itself. The CWR sdcard has a different boot partition that your nook will see and boot to when you hold the power button down with the CWR sdcard in.

Thats my post from an earlier thread with someone having the same issues. It worked for him, it should work for you. Just make sure you follow the steps right and especially make sure your burning the Clockwork image to your SDcard correctly that way it will boot into Clockwork instead of staying black.
I'm gonna have to give these steps a whirl. The downloads are taking foreeeever.
Also had Froyo installed with CWM and just got finished installing gapps. I went to format an SD card, had no luck, and tried to reboot. Ol' Nookie decided not to come back to life after that.
edit: wait, instead of flashing the stock rom can I flash the pre-rooted 1.1 rom?
Just read this over on android central (in a thread about flashing honeycomb). I believe it is what I did and why my nook won't boot:
****While running Honeycomb from Internal Memory NEVER choose the option to format your SD Card from within Honeycomb. The files that were altered to let HC run internally will lead the OS to actually format your boot partition instead of your SD. If you need to format an SD, do it on your computer or in an Android phone, etc.*****

Drat. Just got my CWM image on my sd card. Here goes nothin! Will report back
OK, I have CWM booting off the SD card, i'm formatting system and data under mounts and storage, and then i'm installing the 1.0.1 complete restore. It goes through and then I got to reboot system. Then...nothing. Back to black screen. Help please!
I can pop the SD card back in and boot back to CWM. I've tried several times now with no luck
samuelhalff has a flashable zip that restores the boot partition for situations like this. Go look for it in the development forum. you should be able to flash it using CWR and your NC ought to boot.
eyecrispy, thank you! samuelhalff's boot zip followed by his 1.0.1 complete restore zip did the trick.
RileyGrant, thank you for your post as well. Much obliged!!
Mine just shows a blank screen. All I did was boot into ClockwordMod Recovery, make a backup, then reboot. I was going to flash the Honeycomb Rom, but decided to give it some more thought first. Now All I get is the blank screen, it won't power all the way off, and it won't power on or anything
EDIT: Managed to get it to turn off, but when I turn it back on it boots into recovery. I select Reboot System now, and it reboots back into recovery. Forgive me, I'm so new to this Nook Color thing lol
EDIT AGAIN: Tried using the Monster Pack or whatever, flashed the removeclockwork.zip, followed by the installclockwork.zip, then removed the SD card, rebooted, and went right back into Clockwork Recovery. What gives?
YUP Same thing happened to me. I have read all the posts in this thread and i did try to format the card i had in my nook in the brand new phiremod froyo rom. Now it wont boot at all. I have a CRW card on hand and it wont even boot that. Idk right now, nothing is working.
Try reading through the Dummies Guide to Fixing 'My Nook Won't Boot'.
I did it last night and I'm back up and running again. Here's my post for an abridged version of what I did last night: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=11374824&postcount=29
I had the same problem until I flashed the repartition fix.
Give that a try
I've got the exact same problem as the OP. Running Froyo on EMMC with no problems for a few days, then I left it for a while and now it wont turn back on or boot from uSD.
I've tried long presses on the power key, usb cable power up, but nothing works. I've tried the v4 HC image and the clockwork recovery image and neither are booting.
I verified the CWR image on my android phone and it does boot on my phone, so the image is definitely okay.
Hate to think it, but could this be a battery management issue in the 0.6.7 image and the battery is now screwed? Doesn't seem like boot partition corruption to me.
Any comments or suggestions are welcomed

Sorry for asking what's probably a silly question, but I haven't seen an answer. Is this known to the Nookie dev(s) and being addressed? Just had it happen running Nookie 0.6.8 off the SD card. I was really enjoying it and just telling the wife how I think I'll flash it to the eMMC, but I might have to reconsider if this might occur. Battery was ~80%, no goof-ups reformatting anything. Locked the screen around 1:10 this afternoon & hadn't touched it since. Got home about an hour ago to turn it on, nothing. Disappointing, Nookie is pretty good!
nook color wont turn on
so what to do if i dont have a sd card with cwr or honeycomb (what i was trying to run)ive already called for the replacement, but i would still like to know what to do.
I found this thread after suffering the same or similar problem to everyone else. I turned off the screen and set my nc aside for a few minutes, then it would no longer boot. Screen just stayed black and was completely unresponsive to any input. Working my way through some troubleshooting, I plugged the nc into my computer via USB and it booted into CM7 instantly. I have no idea why this happened, but it's working fine now.

Bricked My Nook

Not sure what I did while in recovery, but it was looping after trying to update Phiremod with a auto update. Screen went black and ever since my pc with not recognize the nook being plugged in nor will it boot into recovery with the appropriate zip and image on my sd card.
Any clues would be much appreciated

There's no way you bricked an "unbrickable" device. You may just have to create a CWM SD and restore your previous Phiremod ROM.
P.S. SD boot priority ROCKS!!

Challenge Accepted!
The first thing to try if you're getting no response is to hold down 'n' while powering on and see what happens. Otherwise, hit the pinned "My Nook won't boot" thread in General.
Try booting with no SD card in. If that works some Androids I have played with don't like to boot with the ROM zip on the root. The nook especially gets stuck trying to boot from the SD when there is nothing to boot on it.

yes everything has been done over and over, the nook is not recognized by the pc which in turn won't allow me to boot to anything.
wonder if the screen went bad
but then again, if it is powering on and the screen is bad, you should see it via adb
if the port and the screen went bad, then you didnt brick it per say, but its just hardware failure.
if its under warranty and registered, id say try to get it rma'd
if it is truely dead, they cant say that you voided the warranty
The sdcard adapter being used to burn the cwm or cyanogenmod install can influence whether or not the nook will boot from it.
Try burning the sdcard using a different adapter. I ended up using both the nook itself as well as my phone plugged into my PC as any attempt to boot from an sdcard burnt from the adapter that came with it will not even power on when inserted into the nook.
Hope this helps.

Try doing a 8 failed boot reset. Interrupt the boot without the SD in 8 times in a row. Just hold the power button for a few seconds after each boot try. It will format everything and install the factory rom. Then maybe you can boot the CWM SD and restore.

Dear Leapinlar,
Thank you very much for your advise. Have already done many power down and up etc. Just tried it again, see the Nook logo, press the power button until it disappear, press the button until it appear etc. Done more than 8, no luck. Is there some timing requirement? How does the home button come into play concerning some low level signal to which code? Tech support guy from BnN asked me to hold the two buttons for 30-40s, no luck there.
The fact that cyanoboot logo appear with the CWM does that mean code introduced by the SD card is gaining control but was stuck looking for something that was not there? Is there a version that can just boot up and let me do some restoring?

Without the SD in, the booting to n logo and powering off many times should kick in the reset. Maybe you are powering off when it is trying to reset. Let it go with booting for a few seconds before you power off, to make sure it is not in the reset mode.
EDIT: Wait till the n dims (or even a little longer) each time before you power off. That way you are sure it is not in the reset mode.

Try pressing N (or it could've been N + power button) without the SD card in, right after switching on the device. You should have a menu appear to hard reset the device.
EDIT: Actually, you might need to press N before turning on the device. I definitely seen this menu while playing around with the buttons.

I was a bit hasty posting that, but now that I can see that you can see 'cyanoboot' logo, it appear that it does boot from sd card, just not a successful one. So, at least it seem the bootloader partition on the nook isn't corrupt. So, I'm pretty sure trying a diff card should work. We have at least a few people confirming to have similar problem after running CM10.1 on the HD+.

[Q] NOOK HD+ Stuck On NOOK boot screen

Nook HD Plus has been running great. Cyanogen running fully on internal memory with no issues. I was using TWRP and wanted to go back to CWM. So I flashed it and all seemed fine. Then I rebooted, and now it is stuck on the First Nook Splash Screen. I have tried to reinstall everything using a bootable SD card but still will not get past the Nook Screen. I can use the SD Card to boot into CWM and it takes all the installs just fine, but still stuck on the Nook Screen. Any ideas??? I have tried to install everything from stock to Carbon with the same results.

Then I rebooted, and now it is stuck on the First Nook Splash Screen. I have tried to reinstall everything using a bootable SD card but still will not get past the Nook Screen. I can use the SD Card to boot into CWM and it takes all the installs just fine, but still stuck on the Nook Screen. Any ideas??? I have tried to install everything from stock to Carbon with the same results.

Have you found a solution yet? I am facing the same problem since trying out cyanogenmod 11 (SD-Version) alongside CM 10.2. Always stuck on NOOK Screen TWRP and CWM bootable from SD, no installs possible.

I have not. I did find out that the main issue is the internal drive was somehow formatted and that is why it will not boot properly. Not sure how it happened, but I think the main bump here will be to try and reformat the drive so it can load the bootloaders properly......it works with the SD card because the bootloader files are on the SD.....driving me nuts.

Try and install stock plain rom and let your device charge (must be turned on!) for 5 hours.
Worked for me:good:

Beware that two of the HD+ partitions (see section #16 of http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=34168454#post34168454 for a complete list of partitions) namely /rom and /factory contain your device's unique factory-installed data such as WiFi MAC address, encryption keys, etc. You'd lose all this data, without which your HD+ cannot run, upon reformatting the entire drive -- unless you know how to backup and restore them.
Actually before doing any of those, you will always need to select the wipe data option when you boot to the CWM Recovery. Since you went from TWRP to CWM, you'll need to wipe it, and then flash it. Try that and see if it works.

Try getting into CWM by booting holding the power and n keys together for a few seconds, releasing the power button first followed by the n key. That should get you into the new CWM on internal memory. Then you can use that to factory reset to start CM11 fresh.
If that does not work, go to my HD/HD+ CWM thread and make a new bootable CWM SD. Use that to flash a plain stock zip from item 6 of that thread followed by a factory reset with CWM. That lets you start over like it came out of the box.
The 8 failed boot procedure did not work because you had replaced the stock recovery with CWM.

Hi, thank you for your guide, it helped me immensely.
I would ask there, I can't post in development subforums (yet), but would it be possible to get an updated version of the SD CWM Recovery that can install kitkat?
Thanks again.

Try using a different SD card if you can.
From what I've read, a 4GB Class4 card is the best. My 16GB will boot less than 1 in 20 times, but my 4GB boots 9 out of 10 times. Also, make sure you have marked the microSD partition as Active using a partition tool.
Fwiw, I got a class 4 sandisk 8gb card. Total noob to android. Booted first time and every time since. Only trouble I had was with win32diskimager. Not only did it not work, it hosed my windows 7 install. I used a program called sdimager instead.

That was because you were not paying attention to what drive win32diskimager automatically chose.

No, I never got to choosing anything. Ran it and nothing appeared to happen. No GUI came up. When I rebooted windows would not start. Had to do system repair.
I thought wtf did win32diskimager do that? Hard to believe. So I downloaded it again from sourceforge, scanned it with avast and malwarebytes, ran it again, same thing happened. OK, better find something else.

That is the way these newer HD+'s are. They can be very hard to boot to SD. There is a whole thread that discusses that. See here:

I had the same issue today, just put cm11 on it and it worked fine, during charging it changed to cyanoboot loading image and it just stuck there. I can not boot to CMW.
any luck? did you recover yours?
Also stuck on cyanoboot screen
Hi all, very similar situation - my Nook HD+ is completely bricked too.
Been a happy user of CM11 on Nook HD+ for about 4 months. I used the guide here to install it.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2602796
Then one morning it would not boot - only showing "Nook" screen when powered up. I tried to reinstall CM11 but with no luck.
I created a bootable SD card with emmc-cwm-early3.img using dd command (dd if=img file of=/dev/sdc bs=1MB). When inserted, Nook would power up and go to Cyanoboot screen and but it would hang there
I went through 3 different SD cards (all type 4) and they are all same
I One interesting thing - I found sdcard-cwm-early9.img from http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2600572. When I create SD card from it, it actually boots up to CWM screen, and it lets me go through various backup/restore options. However, the image only creates about 120MB of free space in SD card and I cannot place any zip files in it.
The reason for bringing out the last point is that it does seem that my Nook HD+ would boot up from SD card, but not with emmc-cmw-early3.img.
Any pointers would be greatly appreciated. Thanks so much.

I'm having a very similar problem to yours suite800, only I was running rooted stock when it happened. Same thing though, normal boot freezes at the first Nook screen.
I've tried a number of different bootable SD images on a few different cards and all of them freeze on a screen with only the cyanoboot logo visible, with the exception of sdcard-cwm-early9.img. That image gets me to a cyanoboot menu but I can't do anything from there, if I select "Boot CWM Recovery" it just hangs on the cyanoboot screen with a message "Loading recovery from SD..."
