Nook fails boot into recovery ... - Nook HD, HD+ Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

My Nook HD plus will no longer boot into recovery.
An error message that an install failed and to contact Barnes & Nobel tech support.
I have CyanogenMod version 10.1.3-ovation and would like to upgrade to 10.2 ovation (Jelly Bean).
I tried TWRP Manager but itdoes not work either.
My Nook will boot up normally and I can use the Cyanogen version rather than the stock Nook OS.
How can I fix my Nook?
Thanks
Carl

The problem is you did not install CWM to your internal memory. That installed failed message is from stock recovery which is still installed. Go to the dummies guide and install CWM to internal memory.
This comment assumes you installed CM to internal memory replacing stock. If you installed to an SD and stock was left intact, then the answer does not apply.

Been so long since I did this, I forgot the details.
In addition, my Micro SD card is corrupted with me messing with it.
Can I install CM to internal memory without an SD card?

I borked my 32gb micro SD card.
I can format it but when I write data
On it, the contents is scrambled.
Seems like it needs a low level format.
Any fixes or do I need a new SD card?

How are you formatting? You should be using SDFormatter free on the web.

I originally used Win32DiskImager on my 32GB MicroSD card and it transformed into a 4GB card.
But, it did allow me to root my Nook and install JB.
Later I learned about SDFormatter and through some manipulation got it back to 32GB and allowed
me to downgrade from JB to ICS. At the time JB was nightly and I had some problems with it.
But, now the microSD card is acting flaky and I've delt with "lost semaphores", "read only", and "unsupported device"
messages.
If there is no program to restore the SD card to its original state, perhaps I just need to go out and purchase another one.

If this doesn't work the card is dead. When you put the image on with Win32DiskImager it was supposed to make the card look like a 4gb that is normal.

For the record, I figured out how to fix my 32GB MicroSD card.
I had trouble with it not working with thiese type issues:
- read only
- SDFormatter failed several times
- when I did get SDFormatter to work and then put the boot files on the SD Card, the filenames were scrambled.
- "lost semaphone" error
- "unsupported card type"
- etc.
What I think I did that fixed my SD card:
- used a different adaptor for the Micro SD card - I started with an SD adaptor, then got it working with a USB adaptor
- CHKDSK /F on Windows PC reboot
- Run SDFormatter → Option → FORMAT TYPE → FULL (Erase) (took 3 hours until completed)
- Ran MiniTool Partition to set the partition Active to make it bootable
- Now I have a 32GB MicroSD card that will boot my Nook HD plus
The reason I wanted to upgrade from CM 10.1 (ICS Icream Sandwich) to CM 10.2 (Jelly Bean) was that
when I started using my HDTV adaptor to display Netflix on my TV using the HDMI cable, the screen
would pause quite a bit on the TV during the video, but continue to play on the Nook.
Upgrading to CM 10.2 Jelly Bean fix this screen pause issue.

Just a point of clarification, CM10.1 and CM10.2 are both Jelly Bean, just different versions. Stock is ICS.

Hey thanks. I'm still a nube with all the version of CM and Cyanogen.
I've done some Java programming using the SDK on my Android phone
but never spent enough time learning all the intricacies - too many other distractions.
Thanks for your help and clarifying things for me.
BTW, what is "emmc"? I see it in ZIP filenames.\

EMMC means Embedded Multi-Media Card. It is the internal chip that comes built into the device where all of the operating and data files are stored. It is identical to an SD but is embedded into the device. The term gets loosely thrown around as applied to anything that is internal storage.

That is what it is supposed to do, be 120 MB. And that 120Mb includes the CWM so you can flash the CM ROM. When you boot it in the nook, it further partitions it so that CM can be installed on the SD. Don't worry, the rest of your 8GB will be available.

Ok, the problem I had was that I was confused regarding where to put the rest of the files, apperantly I'm and idiot and didn't realize I'm supposed to put them in the internal memory... Ok let's see how it goes, thanks!
jmstrat said:
Thanks but how am I supposed to copy the cm10 zip file and gapps/converter file if they wont fit onto it? Also do I just insert the sd card in and then it automatically reformats it and then I'm supposed to plug it back into my pc drag the cm10 files and then put it back into the nook again? Forgive my ignorance I really want to try this out though! I also forgot to mention that I haven't done anything with my nook, it's non rooted and then only thing I've done is sideloaded the playstore on there, that's it. My nook is completely stock.

I'm not sure you read my instructions. I said to put the CM zip, gapps zip and converter zip on the internal media SD built into the nook, not on the external SD inserted into your PC. So it does not matter if the SD is only 120 MB, you are copying nothing there. Just download the zips with stock to internal SD or hook your cable to the PC with stock booted and copy to internal SD.
EDIT: I just edited the OP to clarify all this.

Oh no I figured it out!!! I thought I deleted that comment I didnt want to embarrass myself.. I have another question, I'm using an 8gig card, but I want to get a 64gib card, what should I do when I get the new card, reburn and do the same steps? Thank you for replying to my question so quickly you're ****ing awesome! Wow I'm just messing around with cm10, it's like a new tablet, holy ****. Sketchbook pro appears to have less latency, finally I can draw! So what else is possible with cm10 now, what do you like about cm10 that wasn't possible before? Also what build prop is the tablet being seen as now?

If you want to move to a larger card, use win32diskimager to read the 8GB card to a file. The file will be 8GB. Then use win32diskimager to write that file to your new 64GB card. Then use partitioning software like Mini-Tool Partition Wizard to expand the last partition to the full size of the card.
The build prop is set as a B&N Nook HD.

How to make SD card CyanoBoot menu work?

I have Leapinlar's SD card image installed on a SD card that I used to then install the EMMC version onto my HD+ which is working great, thanks to Leapinlar and Verygreen for that. Since I don't want to misplace the SD card I've left it in my Nook, but then whenever I reboot it, it boots off of the SD card and goes into the CWM on the card. I was wondering if anyone knew of a way to activate the Cyanoboot menu on the card so that I could choose to boot from the card, or the EMMC, and possibly change the default so that it boots to the EMMC instead. I realize that this might not be the right forum as it isn't necessarily a Nook question, so thanks for any help.
Edit: I should specify that I used the 4GB CWM SD card image in Leapinlar's thread, and is the one I'd like to modify. Thanks.
Ask and Ye shall receive.
Attached below is a .rar file that has four files in it. Extract those files to the boot partition of your CWM SD, replacing any duplicates. It will add the cyanoboot menu to it. It will by default boot to CWM, but if you want to boot to emmc (stock or CM10.1 on emmc), hold the n key and the cyanoboot menu will come up and you can choose stock. If you want it to boot to emmc by default, just change the Default Boot Device from "CM10/10.1" to "Stock". Then it will boot to emmc if you do nothing. Then you can boot to CWM by using the cyanoboot menu.
You rock, thanks!

I have the Stock BN rom on DS card and have 10.2 on native install.. but an i think as far as installing the dual boot menu i got that right..
but when i try to switch to the Stock BN rom living on the SD card it just says loading SD... but never continues to the BN boot animation.. or loads continues to login... it feels like a boot loop... do i have to have root access to get this to operate... i have 10.2 root but BN SD is not rooted... confused...
i would just like a boot menu to allow the option to boot to the BN SD card or default to native 10.2..
help?

Right thread this time! So this is dual boot thread (sorry about earlier Leapin!).
Took me about five minutes to get where I'd made my mistakes though even after finding this and trying again. Now that I understand how this installs, and that stock must be in emmc, I just have one question....do I place CM 10.1 on the root of my SD card as a zipped, or unzipped, file for it to load from the menu? Or is there still more to do other than just "sticking the file on there?"
I know this much...every day I have greater & greater respect for xda developers. To be willing to explain things so even myself can understand it a little - and put up w questions - has to be a chore in and of itself. Thank you!

First you need to go to verygreen's SD thread and make the early 7.1 CWM card. The put the CM10.1 zip on internal memory using stock. Then boot with the CWM SD you just made and after it finishes preparing the SD, install the zip from internal memory. Then you can use the files in this thread to put the cyanoboot menu on that SD.

Ok, I seem to be / was good until I got to installing zip from internal memory. This is what has happened so far.
1. Created 7.1 CWM SD with win32 disc imager ...No probs
2. Not enough room on external card to place CM 10.1 zip file even though I started with 16 Gb....so I assumed you meant load CM 10.1 to Nook HD+ internal memory from my PC...no problem there.
3. This is where I got stuck: 7.1 card booted up just fine, but then I wasn't quite sure what next step was...found "install zip from internal SD" and tried that, but of course it sent the update - apparently - to emmc, as Cyanogenmod spinner logo now comes up after reboot.
So my question is how do I need to go about installing from internal memory once CWM 7.10 is running. Is there an adb command I'l need, or did I just choose wrong option?

You used the correct menu item.
If you used an sdcard version of the CM zip, it should have put it on the SD. You can tell by popping the SD out of the slot and booting. It should still boot to stock if you used the correct version. Then when you put the SD back in the slot it should boot to CM.
If you have it correct, then use the files in this thread to add the cyanoboot menu so you can boot back and forth without taking the card out.

Missing memory on SD CM10 boot
First post so I hope I'm putting this in the right place.
I have a Nook HD+ 32GB
I' ve started with Leapinlar's
[CWM/ROOT/EXTRAS] HD/HDplus Stock Root and other Mods
I've then used verygreen's
[Nook HD+] CM10.1 development for sdcard last update 09/04
All that seems to be fine but in CM10.1
Settings - storage reports internal memory 1GB and no SD memory or available mounts
x-plore reports /storage/emulated/0 and /Root as 850MB free of 1GB
Without the SD card - reverting to stock - I have 2.44GB used and 26.56GB available.
Is the 1GB apparently available on a partion on the SD card? I only had a 2GB SD going spare - this now has three partitions, the boot files and two others, one of 1GB. If I'd used a 32GB card would I have 31GB free?
But, more importantly, can anyone tell me how I get CM to give me my 32GB of internal storage back?
Please?
FWIW I expect to run CM10 from internal memory in the long run, but want to be sure that a couple of critical apps run OK before replacing the B&N stock.

Everything is as it should be. You only have 1GB for 'sdcard' since you only used a 2GB SD. If you had used a 32GB, you would have close to 31GB for 'sdcard'.
And on an SD install, the internal memory is still there but not as 'sdcard'. It shows as a folder named 'emmc'.
Since you are planning on installing CM to internal memory, it will be even different yet. 'Sdcard' will be your internal memory and your external SD will be shown as ext_sdcard.
And do not pay too much attention to the settings/storage. People get very confused when reading that since it mixes apples and oranges. (Media storage and app storage).

Finally...it worked! Thanks leapinlar, for all your help!
I encountered the situation above and am wondering if, say, instead of the 2GB card I use a 16 GB...that gives me 16 GB of storage for the CM 1.0 tablet, and my regular flash storage also stays 16 GB? Or all the apps are by default stored on the emmc?

On the SD install, both media and apps get stored on the SD. If you use a 16GB SD to install CM to, it will have about 15GB available for media and app storage instead of 1GB on the 2GB card. But 2GB is really too small to be running CM. You will be running out of app and media storage very quickly.
Since you will be dual booting, when booted to stock the media and apps will be stored on internal memory. You will either have 13GB or 28GB available on stock on emmc depending on the size of the device (16 or 32GB model).

Updating SD version of CM 10.1
I know I've seen this elsewhere, but can't find it...if I go to update the rom on the SD card, it makes sense to me that I would need to load the latest SD version from verygreen's page...or can I just update from settings and not lose dual boot? Also, will a dirty install work so that the data is not lost? (backups are always good )
Man we're enjoying dual boot. My Acer a500 is unreliable so I backed the "build a city town park" up with Helium app. Long story short, with dual boot my kid and I get to continue building and enjoying our monsters in "Monsterama Park" by booting to CM 10.1and restoring data, yet I don't have to give up some of the reader features that I really like with the original Nook OS. Marvelous find....again, thanks y'all for the hard work!

Do not use settings to update an SD install. It will try to put the new ROM on internal replacing stock. Go get the latest SD ROM from the verygreen thread. You can dirty install it with the SD install's CWM.

[Q] Having Trouble Creating SD Card with CM7 for Nook

I need some help with creating an SD card to boot android from on a Nook HD.
I tried this guide:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1000957
I used an old 8gb sandisk micro SD i got from a cell phone
Used win32 disk imager and flashed generic-sd card image onto the root of sd card
Then I took out the card and re-inserted it to get it recognize the new image as F:boot which has 4 files on it MLO U-boot, U ram disk, and u image
Then I went to install CM 7.2 files onto the SD - that's where i ran into trouble. It gave "Error No Room on Disk". I looked at the space on the Sd card and it said it was only 113Mb. _Please help. What did i do wrong when flashing the image file onto SD card to make the sd card smaller?
Thanks in advance for your help.
You have really got things mixed up. This is a Nook HD/HD+ thread and you linked to a Nook Color thread (they are different devices). CM7 does not run on the Nook HD. No wonder things are not working for you.
If you truly have a Nook HD, find a Nook HD thread for installing CM to SD (has to be CM10/CM10.1/CM10.2 though).

If you truly have a Nook HD, find a Nook HD thread for installing CM to SD (has to be CM10/CM10.1/CM10.2 though).

Thank you for the reply. I checked and yes I do have a Nook HD 8GB. I got it from walmart for $129.
So just to confirm - No CM7 will run on Nook HD?
Can you install CM 10 without rooting the device? And if so, is a non-rooted install that runs directly off the SD Card significantly slower than it was flashed to internal memory?
If CM 10 has to be installed to the internal memory, are there dual boot options that would keep what i have on the nook saved?
Also, I noticed when i tried to put CM7 on the SD card, it created a 113 image file, and left the remainder of the disk as "unallocated" - so during the install process how does that unallocated space get turned into usable space?
Any link for the build I need would be very appreciated. Not trying to get anyone to do the work for me, with all the different builds and install files, its complicated for a first timer.
Thanks for help

No, CM7 will run on the Nook HD.
You do not have to root stock to run CM from SD. You can run CM10.1 from the SD and leave stock intact. So you can boot back and forth. If you do, I recommend the hybrid install here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=36668001
It runs more quickly and has more stability. But be warned the instructions can be confusing.
There are no dual boot options that allow you to fully install two systems to internal memory.
And that old Nook Color SD that you used is different than how the Nook HD SD is installed. But you do have to follow directions to get everything to work and fit.

[Q] DIY for emmc-less Rom

My nook hd+ got bricked by the infamous lagfix app.I dont live in the US so I cant replace it. Verygreen made a special sd card install for me that worked on a emmc less system.It worked but since then I am stuck on a single Rom. So can someone please tell me how can I tweak a Rom to work on my emmc less tablet.Any help would be greatly appreciated.

No, the updates are for internal memory only. They will not work on any SD. That is why the OP was asking for some way to convert them to this scheme.

Another question regarding the Nook hd+ tablets without internal memory, whether the use of the application lagfix / trim can cause more damage and may lead to the inability to boot or damage SD card or SD card controller inside the tablet.

You should not need lagfix on an SD setup, especially a no-emmc one. And nothing you do should effect the ability to boot from SD.

[Q] External SD card will not mount

I've had this problem with both Nook HD+ and Nook HD. I've seen it addressed in the forums for other devices, but not these. Forgive me if I missed it.
I'm running the latest stable build of Cyanogenmod for Nook HD+ (cm-10.1.3-ovation). I've had the same problem running hummingbird on the smaller device.
When I insert a micro SD card, it does not prepare or mount the card for usage. The option to mount the card in the settings is grayed out. When I remove the card, the device does notify me that an SD card has been removed, but when I reinsert it, nothing happens. If I re-boot with the card in place, the device will boot, but when I attempt to get at the storage settings, settings crashes.
As I said, I've come across this with different devices, all with the exact symptoms described above. Am I missing something simple?

Try formatting the SD with SDFormatter free on the web.

Figure it out. Had to format the card in recovery first.
