hello everybody!!
i'll start from the beginning: recently, my TP (16gb) simply crashed. it was running webos and CM 10.1, and everything was fine until it just shut down while i was reading with it. then, when i tried to restart it, it went into a bootloop, and after a while it was just stuck on the cm boot animtaion.
i decided to fix it, so i took the following steps:
1. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=24047078&postcount=3 - tried it a few times - didnt work, but CM was no longer loading (there was an error message, something abuot memory, cant quite remember)
2. next step was going with the instructions on this thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1426244.
3. here i thought i've won! http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=33933466&postcount=10 i did that one, and 3rd time was a charm!! webosDR went to 100%, and my TP restarted. BUT!! while i was setting the wifi on, it crashed and it wont boot webos now.
does anybody have any suggestions?
thank you so much for the time you took to read it, and for any time spent to help!!!

I've had my NC rooted for 3 weeks. No probs. I decided to update to 1.0.1 to see if wifi was better and so I entered the adb command to force system update and all seemed to be well. After that it went into a boot loop.
I forced another "update" by powering down 8x during bootup. It reinstalled and then same problem. I then tried the directions at nookdevs to fix boot loops. I couldn't ssh into the NC, but to my surprise I could use adb, but I can't do the listed commands because I get "permission denied".
I did an adb logcat and I get nonstop info going by, mostly looking for stuff that shouldn't be there anymore, i.e. apps I loaded when it was rooted. Dalvik cache??
So, long story short, I've tried a system wipe 4x now and I'm stuck in an endless boot loop BUT I do have adb access. What now?

Haha. Good call. That did work. Bigtime brain fart. Trying all the hard stuff and not the easiest. What's the diff between the two methods?

Head over to Nook Devs for the breakdown of the two.. Both methods are requied for using the newest AutoNooter... Glad to hear the device is still in working order.
Stuck in Boot Loop
Noob here with a problem. I’ve had my NC rooted for 5 days and the rooting went well. I had all my favorite android apps up and running. However I was experiencing random reboots (2-3 times per day). So, I decided to unroot and let the 1.0.1 update install and then I was going to use Auto-Nooter 2.12.18 to get everything back.
I did the 8X reboot thing and after reloaded, the NC went into a boot loop. The first thing I tried to do was the n, volume+ and power button. It simply went back to the boot loop.
I immediately put the auto-nooter sdcard in the NC, plugged in the usb to the pc. As opposed to the other times I did this, I got no visual indication that the PC recognized or activated the NC. I waited the full 5 minutes and removed it. The boot animation had changed, but the NC stayed in the boot loop.
I then searched and found this on nookdev.com (nookdevs.com/NookColor_Fix_Boot_Loops ). Following the instructions there, I installed putty.exe in the same folder as adb.exe. Putty would start and the session window would open, but I could not type or paste anything into the ssh screen. I assumed I had a bad download so I redid that and the install – no luck. I then searched and found another site from which I could download putty.exe, same results.
Before I ejected the NC I opened the command line window and I did adb devices and it came back with nothing. So now my NC is not recognized by the PC (and was before all this).
Can anyone point me in the right direction? Any help with the putty ssh screen issue? Any help will be appreciated.

Out of desperation I downloaded putty.exe again and it worked this time. Using the script on the nookdev.com website, the NC booted. I then did the data wipe and the 8X reset. I'm now back to stock (mostly) and I'll see if it updates tonight. If not, I'll force it tomorrow and don the new auto-nooter.
I'm learning!!
Glad you fixed yours too. This device is nearly impossible to brick unless you deliberately try to. Definitely easy to undo hard work, but hard to brick.
I have the same problem. Minutes after rooting with autonooter, my Nook restarted and I didn't even set up ADB access. I tried reseting several times with no luck Please help!!
Mine is currently stuck in a boot loop as well. I did not update to the newer firmware it auto-updated and jacked everything up. Pretty upset right now.
I know I can reset the device but I need to get the data from it first. I have the entire storage full of data that I need. It will not boot at all and if this gets erased i'll more than likely end up returning the device and purchasing something that I won't have this problem with every update.
Unfortunately, there aren't many devices that will automatically backup all your important data to external media without you having to take some action on your own to set that up.

Well, I'm not an expert, but I have been through this kind of thing. I would think you have two possibilities. One would be to put the nooter sdcard back in and hook it to the computer again. If it isn't very corrupted, it may automatically reload from the nooter sdcard.
If that won't work, then I think it's time to do the 3 finger data wipe and then the 8X reboot thing. You can then redo the nooter sdcard thing.
Good luck.

EXACT Same thing happened to me and a friend when using autonooter and 1.0.1. I think there is a problem with autonooter or 1.0.1 messing up the booting process. I wonder whats wrong So I was able to do the 8X reboot thing and get back to stock 1.0.0 and from here I'll try to attempt to use autonooter for 1.0.1. But I'm staying with 1.0.0 until Froyo next month.
thanks! the 8x thing worked good, I did the whole auto noot process again and it works at all except by this market issue
I've tried repeatedly to install CM7.2 and keep getting stuck on a blank screen. I'll see a "CyanogenMod" then "loading..." right below that. Then it goes blank and nothing ever happens after that.
Some background info. I've had CM7 installed on this in the past without problems. Months ago I went back to a rooted stock. Then yesterday I decided to try CM9 alpha. That installed perfectly. But it was too slow, so I decided to try CM7.2.
I used the same CWM 1GB boot SD, copied "encore_CM72-MiRaGe-02012012.zip" along with the Gingerbread Gapps and CWM. Installed in the same order and wipe data/factory reset.
So I got stuck on that blank screen after the CyanogenMod loading... message. I then decided restore to stock. Installed the 1.01 stock image. It also wouldn't boot up, but I powered it on and off 8 times and it did a factory reinstall and then it booted up normally.
Once back at a factory fresh system. I powered it off and tried installing CM7.2 again. Unfortunately I'm having the same problem again. Ugh, why won't it load now.
Hang on... I might be in the process of making a newb mistake. MD5 didn't match on my SD card, probably the ROM.ZIP is corrupted. Trying again with a good copy.
That was it. It's working now. Please disregard my idiot on the Internet moment. Thank you.
You always figure it out five minutes after you finally give up and post for help/venting.
Been there.
Hi guys i been searching everywhere, all over forums and google and i cant seem to figure out this issue, the issue is that i have a demo version of a 32gb touchpad, and basically i followed all the steps to install clockworkmod and moboot and all that stuff, once all that was completed i choose to install an android rom from the development section, and no matter what i do in clockworkmod, it just keeps restarting, it begins installing a rom and then just automatically restarts. it does that when i wipe cache aswell, i redid the entire process again and i get the same issue, everytime i try to install a rom or do a gaaps update it just restarts and nothing gets installed, Please let me know how to fix this issue
Sounds like you need to completely restart fresh. It could be because of the Demo setup of the TP, it doens't wanna allow CWM to work properly.
What I would do is read THIS THREAD and follow the instructions - it'll factory reset everything, but it'll then be ready for you to install CWM, Moboot, and CM9 again. I know it works cuz I just did it last night.
thanks alot buddy, it WORKED!!!!! now my touchpad finally has android, and webos, oh man android is amazing, my kid luvs it
Hi guys,
I just got two HD+ 32GB and installed cm-10.1-20130527-UNOFFICIAL-ovation-emmc following evergreen and leapinlar's instructions. The installation went well, and I can boot the tablets into twrp recovery. But I cannot boot one tablet into Android. It always hangs on CyanogenMod log (the rotating circle/wheel with CyanogenMod text at the center) when trying to boot into Android. I reboot the tablet several times now and still have the same issue.
I repeated the same procedure on another Nook HD+ 32GB and I can boot the second tablet into Android after several reboots. But I still have no luck with the first tablet.
Any suggestion?
Thanks a lot for the help!

I installed CM10.1 eMMC on my HD+ for the first time last night and the same thing happened to me. So I went back into recovery and installed the CM10.1 again and then it booted up normally afterwards. So in my case at least it seems like it didn't install right on the first try.

Thanks a lot for the suggestion. I finally got It to work by booting into TWRP to wipe system, data, and caches, then re-installing from zips.

Same issue, apparently (hopefully...) resolved
LIke many other posters here and elsewhere, I installed CM 10.1 on my brand new Nook HD+ 32gb, got it to boot into CWM after many trials and tribulations (I had to reboot about 30 times to get the device to boot into recovery from SD; it crashed halfway through backup in spectacularly frustrating fashion, and it took me about 30 more hard resets to get it to boot into CWM again. I used a brand new Amazon Basics 32gb class 10 card). I did a little victory dance, loaded up some apps (probably too aggressively: 50 or 60 of them), rebooted, and.... you know what happened then, or you wouldn't be reading this (probably whilst sweating and/or crying).
After uninstalling some resource-intensive apps, then booting into recovery and wiping both caches, I was able to reboot normally (aside from waiting a couple of minutes for apps to be "updated" or "optimized" or whatever), but the next and all subsequent reboots failed unless I first booted into recovery and wiped the caches.
Finally, after reading a number of posters with the same problem (including @Ravynmagi and @sean_nj here--thanks, guys), I took a deep breath, did a full Titanium backup, booted into CWM, did a factory data reset, and reinstalled the three zips from the bootable SD. CM booted quickly and normally. I rebooted a couple of times with no problems. I installed a few apps, rebooted normally. I installed a few more apps (including a couple which I sideloaded), again rebooted normally. In the last 18 hours, I've installed a few more apps, played some resource-intensive games, tested Netflix and a sideloaded video, etc.
As of now, the device works like a charm and boots quickly and without drama. If anything changes (and I'm still able to communicate like a civilized human being), I'll make sure to update here.
unable to reboot get spinning logo
I recently updated Nook HD+ to 10.1 w/o problems.Each time I have rebooted it take 2 -3 tries before it finally boots ups. Those other times if boots to the spinning Cyanogen logo. Is there something I can do to check with the system booted up correctly to figure out the problem. If not, what steps should I take now and how do you do a complete backup of all the newly added material since the initial update. Thanks again,
Al
I'm facing the same problems but with a different setup: latest CM 10.2 Carbon ROM release (both versions with and without multiwindow). I have random bootloops and I'm unable to track down the problem.
Are we the only users with those bootloops?
Was searching for this. I am not having a problem booting per se, but all of a sudden I am getting a weird booting thing. Where the logo comes up and spins but its distorted, then it becomes normal looking, then my Nook will kind of reboot. Not a complete reboot just the screen goes black for a millisecond and then the logo starts over again where its all distorted, then it goes normal and then it boots.
I guess you can call it a logo boot loop. The thing is, it doesn't happen all he time, just most of the time now. When it happens, my SD card is incorrectly mounted and I have to umount it and take it out physically and re-insert it.
Nook HD+ 32gb, CM 10.1.3 stable and mbg4ga emmc. Not sure if this is the same as you guys but it sounds related. I've re-flashed several times. I think if you guys can find a cure, then it would probably work for me as well. Quick question, any of you guys using auto-patcher to patch Pdroid? How about Xposed?
For getting caught in the boot loop try:
Settings>Launcher>uncheck wallpaper quick render.
This is for stock Trebuchet 1.0 Launcher. I hope the developers are aware of this.
Probably coincidental but, the glitch caused by the magnetic closure on my case much better.(when you try to unlock and it blinks and goes back to lock).
Good luck.
Everything worked fine for almost a whole year, then my tablet started acting strange last night. It got really bad this morning so i was trying to install a antivirus thinking that might help, but it wouldn't open. Reports of program failures were popping up like crazy, so i turned it off and back on about five minutes later. Now its been over an hour and its stuck in the cyanodenmod loading screen, its never taken this long.
Is there any program i can use on my laptop to wipe everything on my tablet and install another os? I'm not sure how it'd work seeing as how its stuck loading. Do i need to let the battery die? I really just want to plug it in and wipe the whole thing but i haven't a clue where to start.
Please help?
I took the back off and unhooked the colorful wire thing from it to turn it off, and put it back. It restarted fine and now I'm attempting to wipe everything on it. When i first pushed the erase all button it didn't do anything, then after trying a few more times it restarted to a "teamwin" something (have no idea what that is) and it restarted again, so far its back on the cyanogenmod loading loop again. (I'm a little amazed i even managed to root it in the first place, considering i didn't know what "os" stood for before that. I really need help with stuff like this.)
If i can get it back to the normal screen, is there any program i can use to reformat everything and like an alternative to cyanogenmod for the program?
Which CyanogenMod version are you running ? The teamwin that you saw when it booted up was the recovery you flashed to install custom ROMs like CyanogenMod. Make sure you have the latest recovery before anything . take a look here and let me know when your up to date and we can put you device back in working form
