I have CyanogenMod Version 10.1.3-ovation on my Nook Hd+ and I tried to update by going to CyanogenMod updates in the settings menu. It is set for stable only and I downloaded cm-10.2.1 and when I click the Apply update button, it says.......
"You are about to upgrade to cm-10.2.1-ovation.zip.
If you press Update, the device will restart itself in recovery mode to install the update.
Note: This feature requires a compatible Recovery or updates will need to be installed manually."
I click update and the device reboots but does not update. I want to know what do I need to do to update. Please let me know!
Do you have CWM installed internally? That is what it meant by having a compatible recovery. You also need to update the gapps to the 20130813 version. Your best solution is to go to the Dummies guide linked in my signature and follow that for installing CM10.2. But skip the step about factory resetting if you want to keep you installed apps.

Thanks for replying. I installed this about a year ago and I actually had to Google CWM to see what that was and I am not sure if I have that installed internally. I know I did something with an microSD card when I installed and there is no card in now. I'm still new at this as I haven't done anything to this tablet in about a year. I will check out the Dummies guide a little later but I want to know if I have to redownload the CM10.2 as well linked in the dummies since it was downloaded to the tablet when I tried to update, or do I just strictly follow the directions on the Dummies?

It is probably best to redownload the files per the guide. The only step to skip is to not factory reset per the guide. That way your installed apps still will be there.

Thanks a lot for the help. I will do this as soon as I find my microSD! One more question for future reference, so how do I update from the device in the future just by downloading an update straight from my Nook? Sorry, that's what I tried to do in the first place and I thought that cyanogenmod would update everything when I checked in the settings and there was an update to download. Once again, I appreciate your help greatly and thanks!
Well, first of all there will be no more updates to CM10.2, only CM11. Secondly, updates to CM11 will not work from CM10.2 using the update procedure because it requires entirely different CWM and files. Once you have manually updated once to CM11, you can use the update procedure to update to a newer nightly or version of CM11. The key that was missing for you and caused the update failure was you missed a step in your original install and did not install CWM to internal memory. That is required for the update procedure to work.

Wish I stayed with 4.2.2
This was allegedly a STABLE version as those are the only ones Im pdating to per my CM update settings.
I do not use nightlies.
Unfortunately I lost connection to GOOGLE PLAY STORE on both of my Nook hd+ tablets...same night I ran the update to 4.3 from 4.2
Im getting the constant *No connection..Retry* error.
Watched many *fix-it* videos on YouTube.....none of the tricks worked.
cleared, data, cache, force stopped, rebooted, unistalled, reinstalled......nothing.
unistalled again 4.4.21 and even istalled the latest 4.4.22 Gogle play store......still the same error.
very frustrated since this was allegedly a STABLE version.
Now I cannot access the Play Store with both of our tablets.
Any advice will be greatly appreciated !

That did the trick.....
I remember the need for new gaps when 4.3 came out a while ago.
I thought it needed to be done only then by those that wanted to upgrade early.
I (wrongly) presumed that the new gapps would be included with new 'stable' versions CM ROMs.
(Especially since no warning or instructions for new gapps popped up during 4.3 installation).
Now I know that gapps is something that always needs to be installed separately.
Thank you for your reply leapinlar !!

The guide you linked attempts to look for solutions to the issue, which may not solve the issue.
The best/only way is to update gapps if you upgrade your Android version.
You can download all gapps from here: http://goo.im/gapps (they are current changing servers which host the files, so you may run into problems if you try right now; later on should be perfect).
All the best.

To get back to a functional HD/HD+, go to my HD/HD+ CWM thread linked in my signature and make a bootable CWM SD. Use that to flash a plain stock zip from item 6 followed by a factory reset with CWM. That should take you back to stock and you should be able to start over.

Ok I'm not entirely sure where to start with rooting and flashing a new rom onto one of these fancy tablets and i'm used to dealing with phones where there are a bunch of sticky posts leading to wikis and such not of how to do this yet i see no such sticky posts so i was curious if someone could point me in the proper direction of where to get started with rooting one of these and then flashing cyanogenmod onto it.
Also a side question from the owner/user of this tablet, is there a way to install the stock rom onto a bootable microSD card to be able to keep the stock apps and stuff or should i just be able to make backups of the stock apps, namely officesuite, with titanium backup once the device is rooted?
Thanks in advance for any and all help.

Thanks for all the info leapinlar. A couple more questions. I haven't checked with root checker yet, but is the nook rooted by default?
Also i notice that when you go about installing cyanogenmod, that you make a back up of the stock rom, which is standard in any romming. However, I can't remember, is there a way to install certain apps from the stock rom backup once you've gotten into CM and got it running? I only ask because I'd like to be able to install office suite that comes with the stock B&N rom onto CM.

Just manually put back the apps you want after you do it.... Pretty painless. Also, after root you have the option to install apk's from anywhere so no probs
Also i remember my first root and while this sit is very helpful and the people are great i was still nervous to do it until i watched a few youtube vids on the process, i guess i am a more visual learner when it comes to things. Anyways though, watching the videos of the proicess helped me tons
Good luck
I have a Nook HD+ that had CM11 installed on it, but recently, the boot time on it went from just under a minute to five minutes (with a 50/50 fail rate). After a failed reboot, I forced it off and turned it back on, only to discover later on that the stock firmware installed it'self back on. Can this happen? What could have caused this?
If you still had stock recovery installed on internal memory the Nook has a boot failure repair mechanism where if it fails to complete a boot 8 times in a row it initiates a self repair where it reinstalls the factory ROM to itself. If you had CWM or TWRP installed to internal memory replacing stock recovery, it will still try to repair itself after an 8 failed boot but will not complete the repair without stock recovery.

If you are talking about the dummies thread, yes, the instructions say to download and install 3 files. One of them is CWM for internal memory. (Edit: But now after looking back at what you installed it was CM11 and my dummies thread does not cover CM11. You must have followed some other guide)

Yes, doing a Factory Reset. Also have tried clearing and not clearing cache, neither seemed to have any effect.
Thanks for your attention. It looks like I've found a build that works. cm-11-20140804-SNAPSHOT-M9-ovation.zip installed and booted rather quickly. None of the other nightly or official/unofficial builds seem to have worked, but I'm up and running now.

Help
Ok so I managed to install cm-11-20140706-UNOFFICIAL-bok-ovation. Installation ran smoothly and everything was fine (kitkat running ok and I was able to go into main menu etc.), until I powered off the device. I remembered the display sort of paused for a brief moment and the device powered down. As I turned it back on, it boots back to the original factory rom.
I've lost my back up rom and cynoboot now only allow selection of either no.1 (boot from Stock ROM), or no. 4 (boot CWM recovery).
I have tried installing the newer ROM (cm-11-20140804-UNOFFICIAL-bok-ovation) but it says E: Can't Open /emmc /cm-11-20140804-UNOFFICIAL-bok-ovation.zip (bad) -tried downloading the file again with same result..
Out of desperation I tried all the menu functions from wiping and formatting to hard resetting it, but nothing happens. It can still boot to Stock ROM fine though. Any help to get this thing rooted with kitkat running is much appreciated..
Patience is the key ...

Patience. No, I'm not good at it either, but combined with the slower operations on the bootable microSD card, I had to wait about 15-20 minutes for the revolving arrow to stop. Touch the screen occasionally, so that the processor stays up to speed (I shouldn't think that necessary, but it stopped revolving when I touched the screen after about 20 minutes).
Noob Questions
I realize these questions will likely seem obvious to everyone, but I couldn't find an answer looking through the forum, so I figured I would ask before proceeding to try this;
The instructions say to download the SD Card Image - I see the links under "SD Card Images", but I also see similar looking links under "Cyanoboot Sources"
Example: SD Card Images: HD: sdcard-hummingbird-cm11.0-v1.img
Cyanoboot Sources: HD: u-boot-hummingbird-cm11.tgz
My question is are these the same thing? Do I need both? One or the other?
Maybe some helpful info: I have a Stock Nook HD 8gb running 2.2.0, never done anything to it other than the factory updates.
Thanks in advance.
Thanks for the great posts
I want to thank everyone for the outstanding work here that allowed a complete noob to take my stale 2 year old Nook HD from blah to WOW in a few simple steps.
I really worried about getting a good SD card, but I was able to exFat format an ADATA 64GB Class 10 card which then tested to 1.62 MB/s on Random Write 4KB (QD=32) on CrystalDiskMark (5 iterations, 50MB). Already owned it as I actually purchased it for the nook, but it seemed like it would not store on the external card.
I followed the instructions exactly as posted on page 1 of this thread and I have the following results: (All confirmed with Screenshots I hope will post)
Total space: 57.12GB! (dramatic improvement over factory Nook HD)
Up time: 18+ hours and going strong with NO forced restarts

NookHDplus Universal Root rev3
I can't seem to get the device to boot into recovery mode, and I'd like to do a full wipe on it and install KitKat on it, but I don't want to screw anything up. All of the guides I've come across are for stock users building from the ground up. Do I have anything to worry about if I attempt a factory install on the device? Can anyone point me to relative resources or walk me through the process?
I also have the following, but haven't done anything with them yet

Those two zips did not put CWM recovery on internal memory. Unless you did something else the stock recovery is still on internal and you do not want to boot to that.
Your proper procedure is to go to my dummies guide linked in my signature and follow post 7 there. The fact that you have installed the universal root and unknown sources zips will not make any difference.

I don't remember the exact process we went through and files used, only that we rooted it January 2014 using instructions from verygreen.
