Yesterday I put it on charging when I went to sleep. Today morning I tried to ON the tab and it just boots to a blank screen and stays like that. My Nook HD+ has stock rom and only modifications was one which allow third pary apps to install. I don't know what to do, please help me...
[Edit] It won't even boot to the CWM backup SD card. When long press power button screen's truning off and long pressing power button again makes the blank screen to appear. Once it reached till the nook 99% screen and then it became blank, twice the very first nook boot screen appeared and then it went blank... and now after several trying only blank screen appears.
After a lot of tries, it finally resetted to factory settings. But a couple of minutes after loging in to my account, blank black screen again appeared and it stays like that. I turned the device off and turned it on after some time, it again booted to the black blank screen for a couple of times. I decided to leave the device on like that. After about 5-7 minutes staying idle, the device booted to the nook os automatically. But the blank screen process repeated. I tried restoring my stock backup using CWM, but the blank screen process is happening in CWM too after some time.... After a lot of tries, I finally restored my stock backup using CWM. But the problem is still there.... Anybody know what is happening? What I do now?
Any advice is really appreciated... thanks.
Any of the experts here know, why this is happening and what to do?

It sounds like a defective device to me. Time for a warranty exchange.

I think this is different from the random reboot issues in the other threads.
I decided to wipe/reset (data and system) my Nook and start over from scratch with a fresh auto-nooter root.
All went well again. Except that occassionally the "Turn off NOOKcolor" screen just pops up out of the blue. I didn't press the button, my fingers was no where near it. And even though I don't even touch the "Power off" choice, it just continues the shutdown.
This is happening a lot. While surfing in Dolphin, browsing the Market, playing a game.
Not much is even installed.
Haha. I figured it out. My Nook has a hardware defect. If I shake it, the screen flashes on and off and brings up the power down screen.
Randomly powering off
My Nook color is randomly shutting itself down also. It appears to be a glitch with the power button because I get the message on screen to verify shut down or cancel. It just shuts down a few seconds later. I have done a complete wipe and reset which has not fixed the issue. I too believe this is a hardware issue, but am not 100% sure.
If I try to return the Nook after I do a complete wipe and reset to factory condition will there be any evidence that I have rooted the device?

Not sure. I bought my Nook at Walmart and returned it there. They didn't even turn it on.
Replacement working fine so far.
Hey guys,
I decided to reflash my nook by holding the power button down 8 times. It loaded the software update and proceeded to the white barnes and noble screen but since then seems to be stuck, the boot animation keeps replaying. Every now and then the screen turns black and it goes back to the white b&n loading screen. It's been this way for about 4 hours so far. Is this normal? I've never reflashed before so I'm not sure how long it's supposed to take. Does anyone know the time it takes to re-image the system partition?
Hello guys, I am in need of some serious help, but please excuse me if I ask too many newbie questions.
I was running SlimROM on my Nook HD+ (I came back from running CM10.1>CarbonROM>SlimROM>CM10.1>SlimROM) and browsing the web late a couple of nights ago when the nook turned itself off. It rebooted itself and got stuck in the CM spinning logo for about 5 minutes. Since this had never happened to me before, i hard reset(held on the power button for long to force a restart) and now it is stuck on the Nook logo until the battery is fully drained. I tried rebooting it many times, while trying to force it into CWM recovery by pressing the vol down/vol down+home while turning it on. No effect, it just keeps showing the Nook logo.
So I brought out my SD card using which I had first installed CWM and CM upon receiving my new Nook HD+ and tried to boot from it. It starts up, shows the Nook logo, then goes on to Cynoboot Universal Bootloader logo for a few seconds, dims, then lights up again and gets stuck there. It then shuts down the Nook itself after a couple of minutes or so.
I brought this tablet with myself to Afghanistan, where I am currently stationed, so I cannot even go into a B&N store until my next R&R (not that I want to take an EMMC flashed Nook to B&N anyway). Please advise.
Am I going to have to buy a new tablet?
Thankyou very much in advance.

I thought the normal way to get to recovery is to power up with the nook button held down? - have you tried that?

Yes, i tried that first, then the vol down+power and then vol down+nook+power. I guess I was desperate, and searched everything remotely similar to the issue.

That is not the way to boot to recovery. You boot to recovery from power off by holding BOTH power and n for like 5-8 seconds, releasing power first followed a few seconds later by releasing n. But be careful how long you hold power, if you hold it too long it will power back off.

Yes sir, that's what I meant I tried. I have (successfully) force booted my way into recovery a couple of times before, but this time it is just stuck on the Nook logo (or cyanoboot logo if I power up with the CWM/CM SD inserted)
Wow. So many views on the post.
Guess the tablet is done for then.
Anyway, thankyou devs of CWM, CM and other ROMs who made my short journey with my first Android so very informative.
Would love to come back here when I buy my new tablet. I think it will be the new Galaxy note 10.1. Or the Nexus 10.
'Till then.

I'm a real newbie to this stuff, so I may be talking rubbish and I'm not familiar with the ROM you were using, but is it possible you're emmc is damaged, for instance by trim. I know there are some people on the board running of special SDCard only roms, and some talk of possible ways to recover damaged emmc.
The reason I say this is it seems stuff is working up to a point, I think even the normal bootable SDCards and recovery partition probably try to mount some things from the emmc, and I wonder if this is where it's freezing up.
I bought a used Droid Turbo 64 GB and for the second time I am stuck in a situation where the screen went blank and now the device won't boot. I get to the silver/blue "Droid" splash screen where it sits for a moment or so, then the screen goes blank. After the first time I wiped and started over, it worked well for three days. Now it happened again. I tried wiping cache, did not help. I was thinking I could reflash Lollipop and would not lose data this time but can't seem to find the appropriate file to flash. Can someone point me to it, or let me know if that's not the right direction to go? As soon as I get a replacement I am sending this back but would like to try and get it up and running for the next few days.

Just trying to get it to be usable until I can get a replacement phone.
While I was researching and posting here, I shut the phone off and put it on a charger. It said it was 61%. It got to 98%, I took a chance and powered it on and it got past the splash screen and went through an optimization of 63 apps. Finished and booted. Lasted about 10 mins then went black again and I am stuck.
I'm not sure if this is what your talking about but If you press the power button when it is in sleep mode and you see the clock and notifications but the background is black. If you pull up it should unlock the phone but everything goes black. That happens to me every so often. I reset my whole phone once thinking it was broken. All you have to do is pull down rather then up and the background appears and all is well again.

Thanks for the info but this phone is locking up. We turned off that mode. The screen does black after 1 min (in display settings). In our case, there is no way to get it to come back on. And during reboot, it goes black and never finishes booting.
You're best bet is to flash the stock firmware. http://rootjunkysdl.com/?device=Droid Turbo&folder=Firmware
i have the same issue, did firmware flash with fastboot and the fix with the verizon software with no results
Hi all,
Putting up this post because I am at my wits end! I have had my Galaxy Tab S2 now for about a month. Just recently I would be using it and it would seem to start lagging a bit, and then without warning it would basically either power cycle, or just freeze and power off. Upon restarting, everything would go as per normal, and then after a few minutes it would happen again.
Went through the process of backing everything up so I could factory reset. This was a strange experience. The files would begin transferring to the backup media, and then the process would freeze, and the power cycle happen again. What made it strange was that if I kept touching the screen, the transfer would continue. Leave it to its own devices and it would freeze and power down or power cycle. Anyways, managed to get what I could off it. On to a factory reset.
Ensuring it was off, I pressed the power and volume up buttons, ending up with a screen with the android robot. Then it shows a screen with the android robot on its side and an exclamation mark above it. Finally to the recovery screen. Here things got a bit hinky too. I would use the volume up/down keys to move through the options available, and then found that the up/down buttons became unresponsive. Frustrated I touched the screen a couple of times and what do you know, the selected choice would move according to what volume button pressed. OK that's weird, and what do you know, after a while it reboots irregardless of choice.
Finally managed to get it to factory reset, wipe everything and on start launch into the setup procedure. "Yay" thought I, "Nay" thought the tablet. Now i'm stuck with a tablet that gets about halfway through the process, freezes, then reboots or powers off. Thing is, it ALWAYS seems to happen at a point in which keyboard interaction is required. I get about halfway through typing my name and snap.
So yeah I have no idea. I'm thinking it could have something to do with battery, however, this all still occurs even if it is plugged into a source. So before I go about trying to work out how to get the back off, I thought I would ask for some advice here!
Seriously, any suggestions would be greatly appreciated!
Cheers,
Chyr0n
Get a new one.

Yeah, it's new and is not rooted. Why not going thru warranty and get a new one?
