Nook HD not charging since CM11 install
This morning I installed the latest CM11 build (M11) on my daughter's Nook HD. Prior to that I was using the stock ROM with no issues. Since installing the ROM the tablet will not charge; rather than showing an orange light the device shows a green light whenever the charger is connected.
It seems possible that my cable has failed at the same time as performing the install, though a little unlikely.
Thank you for your help.

CM11 - TI OMAP drivers going to get updated?
As seen here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/nook-hd/general/updated-ti-omap-video-driver-sluggish-t2912381
Just curious if we'll see these get rolled in...
Thanks for all the hard work!

I updated my Nook HD+ from CM 11 snapshot 10 to 11 OTA , now there is frequent automatic-touches or ghost-touches on the screen without me touching the screen. Any help?

Newbie Questions - B&N HD+
Hi - i am going to flash my B&N HD+ for the first time. i have been reading the forums and instructions and have few questions.
i want to do this without SD card (i can go buy one but i if not needed, i prefer not to use it). is this possible? in the EMMC thread, i still see that the SD card must be used for the flashing/booting. so essentially, to flash CWM 6046, is it possible to not use SD card? and if so, can someone tell me how to do that?
Thanks

No, you must use an SD. There is no other way. And I suggest you use the dummies guide linked in my signature.

NookHDVolumeAdjuster for CM11 or CM10.2 ?
Is there a version of NookHDVolumeAdjuster that runs under CM11 or CM10.2 ? I am using version 1.0 under CM10.1.3. When I tried CM10.2, the sliders were all stuck at the far left. I need the sound higher volume, so I can't upgrade to CM10.2 or CM11. thanks.

Nook HD plus and Gapps error status 6
Good morning,
I was working on flashing my nook last night with
cwm-recovery-ovation-6.zip
cm-20141224-NIGHTLY-ovation.zip
I have tried many different versions of stock, modular-full, modular-mini and gets a status code 6, I have successfully flashed gapps-kk-20140606-signed, but when I try to use it, the playstore just hangs like it is loading. Can someone advise the steps I need to take to successfully install a working version of gapps?
I have tried factory wiping several times and flashing the various versions of GAPPS.
Thanks in advance for any assistance that you provide.

I'd suggest that you try resetting the Google Playstore app: go to Settings->Apps->Google Playstore, and do a "force stop" and "clear data" (after which you'll need to re-enter your Google (Gmail) account login/passwd).

CM11 M12 - Device Temperature
Hi all,
After staying around on CM10.2 for a long time due to a few issues with earlier snapshots of CM11, I've decided to upgrade to M12. Finding it runs great on everything I'm doing - definitely smoother performance. One thing I am concerned about is the temperature hike of my tablet, particularly when charged and running a game (in this instance, Terraria). Is anyone finding the back running quite hot? Can feel it on the screen and the left side of the device, but the temperature reading of 32C/90F doesn't seem that bad... it does feel worryingly hot though. Not sure if it's something on my end or a common thing with CM11, but I never had this on any other build.
As a sidenote - do the developers accept donations?

Audio stuttering in Rayman Jungle Run
I just did an SD card install of CM11 on a Nook HD+ and it's been working well (thanks!), except that I've noticed that the audio in Rayman Jungle Run and Rayman Fiesta Run tends to stutter / warble, making it unpleasant to listen to. Youtube and Great Big War Game sound are good. I'm using cm-11-20141129-UNOFFICIAL-ovation-sdcard.zip with its initial sdcard image for ovation (sdcard-cwm-early9.img) from the first post. The micro SD card is Samsung class 6 16GB.
Any ideas on how to fix this?

Well, what I did, is I found the thread here that describes how to put B&N's OS v2.2.0 on a bootable microSD card. Once I had that working (it's not like B&N is ever going to update the firmware), I did a backup of the Nook's internal storage, and then installed CM11 on the internal storage.
That should solve your performance issues.
Note: You mention an HD+, but then refer to "Ovation", which is the name for the HD, not the HD+. You may want to edit your message to clarify the situation.

Thanks for taking the time to reply. I would have done an internal install, but when I tried to backup the built-in firmware 2.2.0 using CWM 6.0.4.6 (from the OP), I got an error due to the /system partition being unmounted (I'm recalling this from memory; I hope I got it right). I tried using the mount option in CWM, but that failed too. I then said "screw it with the backup... I'll find another on the web", and then tried to do an emmc install of the latest milestone (M12) from the cyanogenmod download site (using SDCARD CWM-based 6.0.4.6 booted from SD... not internal memory), but the install failed with a "status 7" error (IIRC). I also tried using an earlier microSD image (sdcard-cwm-early7.1.img) and tried to install a backup of stock 2.2.0 firmware that I found from another thread here (thinking that maybe I had borked my own from an attempt at installing recovery CWM), but that finished too quickly (yet no errors), and on reboot it didn't appear to have overwritten my own stock firmware. After these efforts spanning a half dozen or so hours of reading, experimenting, etc., I was able to at least get the SD card install working, so I said screw it, I'll just use SD card. But I would really prefer an internal install as you suggest.
I wasn't able to get CWM to boot from internal memory, only SD card (Samsung 16gb class 6). I didn't try very hard though. Maybe this is the reason I can't do an emmc install or backup? Can you only backup internal memory after having booted from CWM recovery (on internal memory, not SD card)?
I was able to find a post somewhere that related the /system problem to rooting, but I never have rooted my Nook HD+ (manufactured Dec'12).
After reading more about the slow 4kB random write performance on most SD cards, I'm thinking of getting a Sandisk class 4 card, but I'd rather not go there if not necessary.
Thanks again.

This worked! I now have an emmc install of cm11 M12 from the cyanogenmod site. Since I'm running Ubuntu GNU/Linux, not Windows, I replaced steps 1 to 3 in your instructions in the above link with (at terminal prompt, with microSD card inserted but unmounted):
gunzip emmc-cwm-early3.1.img.gz
sudo dd if=emmc-cwm-early3.1.img of=/dev/sdb
I then mounted the microSD card and copied (as root) the zip files as in your link, all with terminal. The unmounted /system partition error did not appear, and the M12 install went fine! When wiping I had an error related to sd-ext missing, but from some more searching I concluded that it was benign.
Thank you for helping me out. I was starting to give up before the help I've received here. I'm generally really pleased with the performance of cm11 on Nook HD+ so far. I'm not yet noticing much difference between emmc and sd-card installs, performance-wise.
Unfortunately, the earlier performance problem (sound stuttering/warbling in Rayman Jungle Run) is still there using this internal / emmc install vs. the earlier SD-based install of cm11, which suggests that the problem is in cm11 itself. On stock firmware (version 2.2.0 I believe when tested), Rayman Jungle Run ran fine (no sound problems at all). The sound problem may be a slowdown problem, but it's not severe.

Been trying for a week

How do you know the card has a problem partitioning the sd card. Does it give you an error message? You say it goes no further. What are you expecting it to do?
And the card being a small size is normal.
I guess I don't understand what you are asking.

got it working, followed the tips of another poster that you have to reinstall the drivers when you are in cmw to make adb work and then i used that to install cm10, but another question now that i have cm10 can i just sideload apps by copying and pasting to memory or do i have to flash install them? since i noticed not even gapps is installed

You go get gapps from goo.im using you cm10 browser and select jb-20121011 version and download to your sd . Then boot to cwm and flash it. Reboot to cm10 and register play store and all your apps are there.

FYI, if you didn't already figure this out, the version from bokbokan didn't work because it's for the HD only, not the HD+.
not sure all these install problems are sd cards..I used two elcheapos, worked flawlessly

[Q] Nook HD, CM 10.1 w/ CWM earlyaccessv4 - How to diagnose mysterious reboot(s)

Hi All,
I have a Nook HD, recently purchased and then updated to BN 2.0.6 firmware during the BN registration process. I used the sdcard-cwm-early5.img.gz as referenced in Verygreen's post here to create a bootable CWM SD. I then installed the CM 10.1 build posted in thread by Bokbokban here. Finally, I installed latest gapps from goo.im. All seems to be pretty good, excepting that sometimes, seemingly randomly, the device will reboot itself, at which time it bypasses the SD during boot and goes straight for the stock BN rom on the emmc.
Any ideas on how to proceed? I haven't seen a pattern in the reboots yet, so I am not sure what may or may not be causing them. While I'm not exactly a newb with all that is involved with rooting/flashing various android devices (I own 5 of them), I could use some guidance on how to troubleshoot or diagnose problems like this.
I am confused. You used an HD+ image from verygreen and an HD ROM from bokbokan. How did you make that work? They should not have worked.
But if you really only used HD files, the reboot problem is probably the brand and class of the SD you used. It needs to be SanDisk class 4. We have that problem a lot on the HD+. It is cause by a kernel panic when trying to write to SD.
The solution is to get a better SD or use bokbokan's new Hybrid SD setup that puts /data on internal memory so SD speed does not matter.

Thanks for your prompt reply. To be clearer, I did not use the HD+ image, but I did use the CWM image Verygreen posted, 'sdcard-cwm-early5.img.gz', as that version supported using CWM to read .zip's from /emmc (in other words, those that were downloaded via BN stock browser).
At the risk of sounding like I am second-guessing you, I think it's worth noting that I had no trouble with many things related to writing to the SD card: writing the CWM image, booting into CWM from the SD, writing the CM10.1 image onto the card, booting from the 10.1 rom, etc... So if it is, as you say, the card having write issues and causing a kernel panic, I'm wondering how I can prove that. I will check the kernel logs when I get home.
I'm using a Sandisk 'ultra' class 10 16gb... I get that 'class 10' generally means 'crappy for small random write requests', but I've had good luck with this particular card on other platforms that are sensitive to consistency of write speeds (G2, Nook Color). However, I'll try a class-4 Sandisk per your suggestion.
Follow-up question: I can't seem to find a solid guide that shows how to install to emmc... is that a new frontier for this device? Is it just that nobody has bothered, or is there a problem with original bootloader supporting that?

The internal bootloader is locked down pretty good. Some day someone will be able to break it, but for now no one has.

[Q] Cannot downgrade to 10 from 10.2

I have tried like 3 times and every time nothing happens. I put the gapps and a file named "cm-10-20130511-UNOFFICIAL-ovation-sdcard" onto and sd card. Reboot it into recovery, delete system files, install those two etc, and it always is still cyanogen 10.2 every single time. I want cyanogenmod 10 so that I will be able to play with wii remotes and bluetooth and stuff and yeah. That was one of the main reasons I wanted my nook. If there are any other ways to do that, that would be great as well. And then two more things, when I reinstall and delete system files, all the stuff ont he internal memory are still there and I don't know if it is supposed to be like that? And then another problem with my nook is that sometimes when I try to unlock it the screen just blinks and won't open no matter what and I just have to reboot. And lastly, when I am charging the nook it always jsut keeps blinking no matter what I try. If you could respond asap that would be great, I kinda need it for school and don't feel like installing everything if it won't be permanent. Thanks a lot!
TLDR; I have a lot of issues with my nook!
Yes, you have a lot of questions in that post. First, explain a little better what you are running. That CM10 zip is for an SD install and I am betting you are running CM10.2 on internal memory.
And wiping with CWM usually does not delete media files from internal memory.
And the unlock screen problem is probably the magnet in you cover. Open the cover twice to get around it.
Don't know the problem about charging/blinking.

All I remember is that what I installed the cm 10.2 with is 2 zip files from an sd card, and did the same as I did when I tried 10. However, when I did 10.1 (What i weas running before all of this) I installed through a bootable sd card with zip files. And how do I get rid of stuff on internal? Do i need to? Thanks for all the other answers too. And is the file name I even sent you cm 10? Just want to make sure so I am not being stupid. Also the stuff on my sd card is still all the same I just used a different external sd card for the install. (Which I would rather do if possible)
You probably installed CM10.1 and CM10.2 to internal memory. That is why that one marked sdcard will not work. I don't think there are any CM10 zips that will work on internal memory. They are all for SD. (You can tell because the say 'sdcard' in the name.) Why is it you think you need CM10? If you want it you must install it on SD. There is a thread for it in the dev section. See here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=35087686
If you want to wipe the media files off of internal with CWM, go to mounts and storage and choose 'format data and datamedia'. That will clear the media files. But you do not need to do that unless you are worried others will see it. It makes no difference to installing things.

Ok, is the emmc one the one that I can install on the internal memory? And i dont get it because it says to use the same install method for the one that I did and you say that that install message is wrong. And then, can I still have stuff on my sd card while it has the install on it or does it have to just be for the install. And then for gapps and cwm do I have to install those again? sorry for my stupidity
Yes both the SD install and the emmc install use a bootable CWM SD to install them. But the CWM SDs are different. The CWM menu is the same, but one is coded to install the ROM on internal memory (emmc) and one is coded to put the ROM on the same SD that the CWM is on.
For a long time only SD installs were available, then the developer figured out how to install to emmc. Now almost all ROM zips are for emmc.
You did not answer my question about why you think you need CM10. You said something earlier about wii. I don't think CM10 on the HD supported wii.
You are just too confused to be helped. I suggest you read a lot more.

Sorry I wrote this whole thing to you and then accidently deleted it, the only reason I actually need it is for wii remotes to work via bluetooth. The newer cyanogenmods and android builds broke it so it supposedly only works in cyanogenmod 10
And then in response to the last one, all i need to do is install the emmc? Do i need the newer gapps or cwm? And i just do it the same way as i did before?

If you want CM10 you must install to SD, not emmc.
But your wii information for CM10 is for other devices? Do you know if wii ever worked on the HD+ with CM10?

Nook HD+ recovery loops, status 7 and so on

Hi there,
i'm having huge problems getting my HD+ fixed.
what happened: shut down out of nowhere, didnt boot the ROM, just TWRP recovery loops. Flashing and wiping did nothing good to the device. I always got errors when trying to install zips (data1 not found or something like this), but somehow the installation of CWM worked.
At the moment: CWM 6.0.4.5, when booting into recovery, under mounts/storage it says that system, data rom and bootdata arent mounted (but i can mount them from there).
trying to flash a new ROM or other zips doesnt work: Status 7.
I've read several threads over here, but I'm still confused and dont know how to save my HD+. Which exact files should i flash in which order? How to get rid of status 7?
Thank you so much.
Greetings

I've read several threads over here, but I'm still confused and dont know how to save my HD+. Which exact files should i flash in which order? How to get rid of status 7?
Thank you so much.

Hi there,
i'm having huge problems getting my HD+ fixed.
what happened: shut down out of nowhere, didnt boot the ROM, just TWRP recovery loops. Flashing and wiping did nothing good to the device. I always got errors when trying to install zips (data1 not found or something like this), but somehow the installation of CWM worked.

That v6045 of CWM is causing the status 7 errors. You need an older version for older zips. Go to my HD/HD+ CWM thread linked in my signature and make a bootable CWM SD per item 1a. Then you can flash whatever you want, including that plain stock zip from item 6.

Hi,
thanks for your answers.
I made a CWM SD as described. I put it into my HD+. But how do I avoid my Nook booting into the already-installed emmc-6.0.4.5? I rebooted it several times and always landed in the 6.0.4.5, so I assume i'm not in the SD-CWM which i desperately need. I also pushed "NookHDplus-CWM-6036-for-internal-memory-rev1-(09.22.13).zip" to the internal memory and tried to flash this, but no chance - status 7.
As I see it, the problem is to get into the older CWM-SD because the 6.0.4.5 won't let me install earlier CWMs (status 7)?

Can you boot 11? I have found my new nook won't boot from the SDcard unless I boot unmount the old card and mount the new one before booting.
Seems as if i have the problem lots of other users have encountered: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2288688&page=6
When I installed CWM/CM the first time, I didnt have any problem with this, using the exact same hardware. Is it even possible to boot right from SD with my emmc-installed 6045, or is it just bad luck like those other guys in the thread mentioned?
Sideload doesnt work neither, CWM 6045 tells me to begin sideloading, but ADB gives me the whole "help"-listing instead (as if I used a wrong command or something: adb sideload filename.zip) of a working sideload-process. When I start sideload in CWM, "adb devices" gives me "host", dont know if this is good.

You mean I should try to boot CM11 from SDcard (i assume i end up with the same problem that the Nook doesnt want to boot from SD-CWM)? Where should I unmount the card? I dont think i'm getting your idea
Thank you!

On my new replacement Nook I can't boot to any SDcards no matter if they are CWM or CM unless I boot into a working OS unmount the card I have in there eject it and put another one in while still booted then do a reboot it then boots every time off the new card.
Now the stock OS is installed. But I have problems getting into the SD-CWM. At the moment, it doesnt boot at all when the SD card is my Nook. Very strange behaviour.
I don't have a second SD-card, so I can't try that.

My Nook has Version 2.2 of B&N Software. I have to restore the Nook to get it to boot from SD Card. I am new so I am having issues finding the right combination of files to install the nightly build of CM11 without getting a status 7. There are so many builders and files on this forum and everything I have tested so far has been a no go. Can someone give me a specific set of files that will work with the nightly build of CM 11? It would be greatly appreciated!
Create a bootable SD card: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2062613
- format SD card with SDFormatter
- set the only partition to "active" with MiniTool Partition Wizard
- "flash"/"burn" a bootable-CWM-image, for me it OINLY worked with "NookHDplus-bootable-CWM-6028-for-stock-small-rev4-(05.15.13).zip" (boots every time to SD-CWM, using the 4GB-version didnt work even after 30+ trys
- add your CM11-zip to the SD card using your windows explorer
- add flash_recovery_ovation_CWM_6.0.4.5b_internal.zip from http://goo.im/devs/succulent/ovation/recovery
- put it in your Nook, boot it up, if you're lucky you see CWM
- flash the 6.0.4.5b CWM, then you're ready to flash the newest CM11. If you want to flash an older version of CM such as 10.1 or 10.2, you need a lower CWM version to avoid status 7 errors.
- flash CM11
That was my way to CM11, but there is one huge problem at the moment: CM won't boot, it loops the CM-bootlogo infinitely. several wipes did nothing, still looping. My CWM always says on bootup that /system/ (besides others) isnt mounted, but I can mount them without a problem, flashing the CM-ROM doesnt produce errors.
I don't know how to avoid the CM bootlogo-loop
Had to reboot about 8 times to get my nook to read 32 gig SD card.

I had to reboot my nook at least 8 times to get it to read my SD card so I could install succulents 07FEB2014, using TWRP, because I was getting error 7 when installing via CWM.6.0.26 If I had known better, I would have copied the 07FEB2014 (stable) build to my internal memory and installed with TWRP from there. I somehow got into a loop where I could only boot into TWRP, finally being able to install seemed to fix this. I am loving the 07FEB2014 build. Keep up the good work gentle men and women! I really love this build.

[Q] Nook HD keeps booting into CWM/Cyanoboot

I have two NookHD+ but bought a HD for one of my sons. Got it yesterday and went about trying to figure out how to get CM 11 or 10.2 on it.
So took me forever to figure out it won't boot to SD without the power cable plugged in, even if battery is full. Whatever.
1. So created boot SD with NookHD-bootable-CWM-6027-for-emmc-stock-4GB-rev3-(02.03.13).img
2. Wiped and then installed cwm-recovery-hummingbird-5.zip
3. Tried to install cm-11-20140117-UNOFFICIAL-hummingbird-emmc.zip but failed saying something like "System 7" (not sure about "System" but 7 I'm sure about.)
Gave up on CM11, decided to try 10.2
1. Did a restore, wiped, then installed cm-10.2-20140117-UNOFFICIAL-hummingbird-emmc.zip and gapps-jb-20130813-signed.zip
2. Now with SD card removed it boots to CWM. I thought it might be something to do with cwm-recovery-hummingbird-5.zip so I tried cwm-recovery-hummingbird-2.zip but it still boots to CWM with the card removed.
Previosuly I screwed the pooch with one of the HD+and I had a stock ROM, but can't seem to find one for the HD.
Anyway, I hope someone had the answer please, son was using it a little stock and it's just plain broken now, so I feel like a jerk. HELP!:crying:
If possible, try starting from the beginning. Installing CM11 for many users has been problematic; so I'd recommend CM10.x for now.
Insert your SD card into your computer's card reader, and format it using SDFormatter. Now using your preferred tool, burn the .img file to your SD card (NookHD-bootable-CWM-6027-for-emmc-stock-4GB-rev3-(02.03.13).img).
Once burned, download a stable version of CM10.2.1 (or 10.1.3 if you prefer) from: http://download.cyanogenmod.org/?device=hummingbird&type=stable and download gapps from: http://goo.im/gapps for the version of CM you download. Also download "CWM Recovery zip" (cwm-recovery-hummingbird-2.zip) for Nook HD at: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2319000 (on the 5th paragraph). Once you have downloaded all three files, place them on your SD card.
Now eject your SD card from the computer. Turn your Nook off. Place the SD card in, and turn your Nook on (if your Nook does not boot from the SD card, do whatever method works for you to get it to boot). Once booted into CWM Recovery via SD card, install "cwm-recovery-hummingbird-2.zip", now reboot your device. Make sure you're in this version of the recovery. Now clear your cache partition, and install both CM and Gapps.
After flashing/install, try rebooting. Hopefully you should be able to boot into CyanogenMod. If not, reply back please and I have another definite trick up my sleeve.
All the best.

The reason the CM11 did not install without an error message is it needs a newer version of CWM to flash it.
And you may need to go to my HD/HD+ CWM thread and flash the plain stock zip from item 6. That aborted CM11 install probably messed up your internal memory. Then you can start clean with CM10.2.

Thank you, I'll try it now, Formatted with SDFormatter and Burning NookHD-bootable-CWM-6027-for-emmc-stock-4GB-rev3-(02.03.13).img now (takes a while for whatever reason, class 4 card)
I'll then install...
1. Install cwm-recovery-hummingbird-2.zip - Reboot
2. Clear Cache, Wipe then
3. install cm-10.2-20140117-UNOFFICIAL-hummingbird-emmc.zip And gapps-jb-20130813-signed.zip.
Thank you, stay tuned for results!

Yeah you saved my HD+ with the stock image last time, but I can't seem to find the link or I don't recognize it. I must be blind, I'll go look closer...
Thank you
Edit, found it! thank you, helped that you told me "Item 6"
Ok, got it working and I got it working with CW11.
HiddenG, I tried your steps as best I could and no love from the Nook. After getting NookHD-stock-2.1.1-rooted.zip and installing it from the CWM that was burned on to the SD, the unit appeared to be back to stock. So I'll document the rest for others trying to install CW11 on the NookHD.
1. Burned a SD card with NookHD-bootable-CWM-6027-for-emmc-stock-4GB-rev3-(02.03.13).img
2. Copied cwm-recovery-hummingbird-5.zip, cm-11-20140117-UNOFFICIAL-hummingbird-emmc and gapps-kk-20140105-signed to SD.
3. Booted from SD and cleared cache/wiped. Installed cwm-recovery-hummingbird-5.zip. (Cleared cache/wiped again because I'm never sure on the order of such things)
4. Removed SD card and booted from the internal CWM (the one installed from cwm-recovery-hummingbird-5) by holding down nook sign and powering on.
5. Installed cm-11-20140117-UNOFFICIAL-hummingbird-emmc and gapps-kk-20140105-signed. Cleared cache/wiped again because figured it was good to do ensure it was done.??
6. Remove SD card and Rebooted via the CWM menu.
7. Enjoying CW11
Thank you both for leapinlar & HiddenG for your help. You've saved the day and made my son a happy little guy again! :victory:
Haha, glad you got your son's Nook working again. Restoring to stock firmware/ROM was actually my last "definite trick up my sleeve." Anyhow, I'm happy for you!
Enjoy.
