Hi
My HD+ downloaded the latest stable Cyanogenmod upgrade file, but it fails to upgrade it. I tried downloading it again, but got the same error. I think it's having problems booting into recovery mode. Is it possible to boot into recovery and select the upgrade file manually?
Thanks
Tom
What kind of error message do you get?
You can just download the zip manually from the download page and the go into the recovery to flash it:

If you look at the dummies guide for CM10.1/CM10.2, you will see a warning there about using the update function. It has to do with where cmupdater stores the file vs where CWM is expecting it to be.

I try to upgrate to cm-11-20140308-SNAPSHOT-M4-ovation (directly frome Nook) today but it always fails, saying (status 7) installation aborted. I tried reboot system and recovery several times but they didn't work. So I just gave up and wiped data to turn to factory setting. Now I can't wake my device up with power on, after showing cyanoboot, it just truns black.
Don't know what to do now QAQ.
You probably used an old version of CWM to flash the CM11 zip. It requires v6045 or newer. And wiping data does not return it to stock. You must flash the stock ROM. Go to my HD/HD+ CWM thread linked in my signature and get the stock ROM zip from item 6.

You are talking two different ROMs, first CM11 them CM10.2.1. CM11 is the one that needs v6045 or newer. Not sure what you succeeded with.

I see~ I think I rewrote my SDcard last month, so SDcard works. And maybe I didn't do the recovery when upgrading at the first time, which leads to the following failure.
Thank you so much for your patience and time!

You need to be using an older CWM.

I'm not sure what you mean by 'you did that'. You did what? Use an older CWM? Did it install the zip properly? You need to be more specific. The 8 failed boot will not work without the stock recovery installed. If you just want stock back, use an old recovery to flash the stock ROM zip I have linked in item A15 in my NC Tips thread linked in my signature.

You said the stock recovery zip failed when you tried to flash with an error about the number of arguments. I suggested that you use an older CWM. You said you tried that. But you did not say if it installed then without the error message. And you do not describe what it does when you try the 8 failed boot procedure. And did the stock ROM install complete successfully?
What are your symptoms? What does it boot to?

Hi - I hope this will be a simple answer but just checking in case I knacker my HD up. I have a HD running on 10.2.1 and am looking to update it to Kitkat. Do I simply download the latest snapshot from here - http://download.cyanogenmod.org/?device=hummingbird - and copy it to the SD. Then boot into recovery and update using the zip file? Or do I need to do something a bit more complicated? I read on another forum (hotukdeals I think) that you couldn't go from jellybean to kitkat as an upgrade as it sticks in a boot loop. So thought I would ask the experts instead!
Thanks in advance for any help.

No, you cannot do that. Kitkat requires a new set of files to install it. You need a new CWM and new gapps in addition to the ROM you download from that link. Go to the dummies guide linked in my signature to get the files and instructions.

CM11 requires a newer version of CWM than CWM versions used by CM10.x
The process in a nutshell: use your current recovery to flash the new CWM recovery version (the flashable zip file "recovery hummingbird recovery image (CWM)" posted at http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=49192422&postcount=1), then just boot into the new recovery to flash CM11 and corresponding new Gapps (http://wiki.cyanogenmod.org/w/Google_Apps).
It will only boot into CWM-based recovery v6.0.2.7-stock.
I have tried to install zip from sd card. It installs. I installed Nookhd-CWM-60460-for-internal-memory-rev0-(07-13-14).zip. Then I installed cm-10.2.1-hummingbird.zip. Lastly I installed Gaaps-jb-4.2.1-20121128-signed.zip.
I restart the Nook and it boots right back into recovery.
PLEASE HELP.

Try taking it back to stock per my HD/HD+ CWM thread linked in my signature. Sometimes this clears this issue.

i tried to flash the stock zip. And status 7 appeared.

You are using too new of a version of CWM. Use the one made from the instructions from item 1a. It has to be older than version 6045. Then use the CWM to do a factory reset and to flash the plain stock zip.

it worked but my touch screen won't work
It was working flawlessly on cm11 however my little boy said it will no longer boot up correctly and has started to only load up Cyanoboot. I assume he may have done a system update that has made it go wrong. I followed the tutorial for how to unbrick a nook (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1663836) with the idea of starting fresh however I cant get it to boot from the SD card. I have restarted it countless times but only ever end up back at Cyanoboot.....could anyone help me out?

That tutorial is for a Nook Tablet. Those files will not work on the hd. Go to my hd/hd+ cwm thread linked in my signature and make a new CWM SD per item 1a. Then flash the plain stock rom from item 6 followed by a factory reset.

sorry for the delayed reply - only just got round to attempting this - I have followed along fine but everytime I try to flash a zip file i get "Can't open ....."
(bad)
Installation aborted.
I have redownloaded the files multiple times to rule out a bad download - any other ideas?
EDIT: Disabled anti virus and redownloaded the zips again - can flash unknown sources etc but still cant flash a stock rom (same problem of (bad) install aborted)
Thank you

What cwm are you using and what zip are you trying to flash?
Sent from my SM-T707V using XDA Premium HD app
CWM running from the SD is from your thread - 6.0.2.7 - stock
I have tried to flash the roms from your thread 2.1.0 plain / 2.2.1 plain / Full 2.1.1 Stock with Root and succulent cm11 all end with the bad installation aborted error message.
Thanks for getting back to me.

Are you using the hummingbird versions of the roms?
Sent from my SM-T707V using XDA Premium HD app
succulent was - the one from your thread was just "NookHD-factory-2.1.0-plain-stock" not usre if it's hummingbird or not?
Nook HD means hummingbird. How are you copying the zips to the SD?
Sent from my SM-T707V using XDA Premium HD app
Just a copy / paste in windows explorer which worked fine for the unknown sources zip (admittedly it's a much smaller filesize)

Only the anti-virus thing and you said you tried that. Ordinarily I would say to try downloading with the tablet but I don't think that your tablet is booting. Try another PC.
