Hi,
I installed CM10.2 on my Nook HD+ but left the stock recovery on. I figured that it would help to reinstall the stock rom if something goes wrong.
Is there a way to install CM10.2 updates on my tablet without removing the stock recovery. The sdcard-based CWM worked on the stock rom but it no longer works on CM10.2. I have tried a couple of recoveries but none of them worked.
Do I have to install a custom recovery on EMMC to be able to do updates? If so, how can I install the custom recovery after installing 10.2?
Any help would be appreciated.

Just follow the "Make the CWM sd" guide from here .It works for the cm emmc install also.
Also why would you not flash custom recovery? If something goes wrong or if you want to go back to stock you could just flash the factory stock ROM from the cwm SD you made. You can get it from the same thread.

The same CWM SD you used to flash CM10.2 should still work with CM10.2 installed on emmc. You must have somehow modified the original SD. Try making the SD from scratch again. You can keep stock recovery on emmc if you want so that you can easily reset to stock if you want.
But once you have that SD working you can still flash the CWM or TWRP zip to emmc with it, along with the updated CM you wanted to install.

I have carbon ROM installed. However the power menu and ROM manager options to reboot to recovery do not work. They just take me to the nook install failed screen. I like to mess with ROMs and I would love to must be able to install ROMs on the fly. I can get into recovery if in install my origal boot SD I used to get cwm into the device. Anyone have any advice for that?

It is booting to recovery, stock recovery.
If you want CWM or TWRP recovery internally, you must install them. Go to verygreen's emmc CM10.1 thread and he has flashable zips to put one on your internal memory, replacing stock recovery.
Or, as you said, you could just boot to your CWM SD that you used to install Carbon.

Yes I have it fixed now. Thanks. Finally can reformat my 4gb sd card back to 32gb
Thanks for the quick reply.
I've updated my nook HD+ to 'Nightly CM 10.2 ver. 9/13' then it has a problem now.
It can't normally boot. It was totally slow with cynogen boot screen.
so, I tried to flash former rom but I couldn't do it. I could see same situation after flashing other roms.
I tried to format emmc partition via cwm recovery but I also couldn't.
I don't know what happen with my nook. Please help me.
Hey! I just got my Nook HD+ tablet today and I want to root it and enable unknown sources, I have been following leapinlar's thread for sometime and really appreciate his work! I am not really ready to flash to CM because of certain app stability issues i have heard (correct me if I am wrong) Thus, I thought stock is more stable and I can just use nova launcher with it. I don't really want to spend time trying to root it and I have seen he has a stock 2.1.1 file with root, unknown source, busybox, etc right? Will the bootloader be unlocked if I flash it? and how do I flash it? I have already downloaded the file and have a 32gb class 10 transcend card ready. Do I have to install CWM or can I use stock recovery to flash it? and do you have the instructions to flash CWM and replace stock recovery? Thanks!
To flash anything you need to make a bootable CWM SD per my instructions in my HD/HD+ CWM thread. You cannot flash things with stock recovery. Once you have made the CWM SD it is just as easy to flash the Universal Root rev3 zip and enable unknown sources zip as it is to flash the stock 2.1.1 rooted zip. Even with the full rooted version you still need to flash the enable unknown sources zip. And you end up exactly the same no matter which way you go.
All of the zips get flashed the same way with CWM, including the full stock zips and custom recovery for internal memory.

Hi,
Just attempting to upgrade to CM11, and have hit a hurdle at the first step.
Having prompted via the power button to reboot to recovery, the device is now stuck alternating between the default nook load start screen and the cyanboot bootloader logo.
Any ideas please how to force a proper boot either back into the OS or recovery as intended?
Thanks!

At the moment, do you have CyanogenMod installed or the stock ROM? If CM, why not try creating a bootable CWM Recovery on a SD card. Using that SD card (turn Nook off, insert SD card and turn on), boot into CWM Recovery and install EMMC recovery + CM (and optionally Gapps). That should hopefully solve your issue.
You may not be able to boot into CWM Recovery instantly with the bootable CWM Recovery on SD, as newer Nook's often have problems; but keep trying.
All the best.
I'm running CM 10.1.3 at the moment,
Thanks, will try that as I think that's how I originally installed (was a while ago!).
Only issue I might have is that I don't seem to have a 4Gb card around, so may have to purchase one and then get back to you.
Will try with a 32Gb card for now.
Cheers for your help!

Of course, you can try with your 32GB SD card; it shouldn't be a major problem, it can still work too. Apologies if it's a silly question, but are you able to boot into CM10.1.3 at the moment? And if you power the Nook off completely, then turn it back on, does it still freeze at boot up?
Also, did you install a newer version of CWM Recovery for CM11, before flashing CM11? If so, that may make it harder for you to boot into a bootable CWM via SD card, as some users are reporting issues. If not, then once you have this issue solved, downloaded and install the latest CWM then try flashing CM11 again; and hopefully you shouldn't have any issues.
All the best.

Nope, can't boot into 10.1.3, literally all I did was select to reboot into recovery and it locked up in this booting loop without ever being able to load.
I had CWN Recovery 6 and CM11 on the internal memory ready to update, following upgrade instructions here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2600572
Was I supposed to install the latest CWN Recovery version from the OS rather than from recovery mode?
I've now loaded up my old bootable SD used when first installing 10.1.3 and managed to get into the bootloader.
It says I am in Recovery 6.0.2.8...
How is best to proceed? Try and recover 10.1.3 first or continue trying to update to CM11?
Cheers.
I'm glad you managed to boot back into recovery using your SD card. From here, I'd install CM10.1.3 and install CM11 after; so at least we have the Nook working for certain.
In the bootable SD recovery, install CWM Recovery and CM10.1.3. Then boot into CM, and hopefully that should solve your issue. We can then move forward to CM11.
If you have a Nook HD, download "CWM Recovery" from: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2319000 (5th paragraph)
Or if you have a Nook HD+: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2263553 (3rd paragraph)
After downloading the CWM Recovery, download CM10.1.3 for either Nook HD (Hummingbird) or Nook HD+ (ovation). Put them both on your internal storage or SD card; and using the recovery you're able to boot into using your SD card, install both the CWM Recovery and CM10.1.3. Eject your SD card, and reboot your Nook. Hopefully you should be able to boot into CyanogenMod; thus solving your issue(s).
Now, we'll concentrate on upgrading to CM11. The guide you're following to update to CM11 is correct, and should be good to go. So, download the latest "recovery image (CWM)" for your device from: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2600572 and also download CM11.
Place the "recovery image (CWM)" onto your internal storage/SD card;
Boot into your current recovery, and install the recovery image (similar to how you install CM);
Now reboot your device back into recovery;
Now install CM11 (and gapps if you desire).
That should be it hopefully, and you should be in CM11. Just make sure you install the newer CWM at step 1.
All the best, and I do apologise if I didn't explain everything clearly.
My Nook HD+ keeps rebooting to my EMMC recovery (currently CWM 6.0.4.6) no matter what I try. It all started with a botched CM11 install from a while back. Since then I've tried installing CM11 M8 and CM10 RC2 through both the emmc recovery and the bootable sd card recovery. Even when the install goes smoothly, my Nook will just reboot back into whichever recovery I have installed.
Not sure what the problem is but would really appreciate any help. Thanks!

You need to go to my HD/HD+ CWM thread linked in my signature and make a new bootable CWM SD per item 1a and use that to flash a plain stock zip from item 6, followed by a system reset with CWM. That should get you going again and you can start over.

I got the similar problem on my nook hd (version : CM10.1). Someday, it automatically upgraded and i interrupt it, then a tragedy comes. It always get into cyanboot and recovery 6.0.4.6 when i rebooted. And i try flash newer CM, but it always reboot. Then i try many ways during several days.
When i just wanted to give up, the miracle showed. My nook was connected on PC with internet, the screen is stuck on cyanboot as usually. Then new screen pop up to ask me set language.
I quickly flash recovery, CM11 and google market. In this time, recovery 6.0.4.6 was worked but i didn't why and how. BUT when i reboot it, it still went into cyanboot and recovery 6.0.4.6. In recovery menu, i try advanced-->reboot to bootloader. Yes, i got into new CM11 :crying:
Now, although my nook get into recovery 6.0.4.6 when it rebooted, but tap advanced-->reboot to bootloader, which get 100% into CM11.
It really a tough work, and i still don't know how i solve it~~
See this thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1444630 for an explanation of one common (but not the only possible) cause of the "recovery boot loop" problem. Although it was written for the Nook Tablet, the same mechanism also applies to the Nook Color, Nook HD/HD+.
For the Nook Tablet (not HD/HD+), there is a flashable_fix_bootloop.zip created by XDA developer succulent (and posted at his Blog http://iamafanof.wordpress.com/2013...-1-jellybean-sdcard-img-for-nook-tablet-0110/) that can be flashed (using CWM/TWRP) to reset the two files BCB and BootCnt and thereby getting the NT out of the recovery boot loop condition; with a little tweak this tool can be adapted for use with another Nook device type such as HD or HD+.
