Hey everyone, I have a nook hd+ rooted with cm 11 nightly and was experiencing lag and crashes often. I tried to install twrp latest version through the play store as I had the cwm recovery originally. After the install process, as I was trying to tap boot into recovery, it rebooted regularly instead, and now my tablet is bricked. It keeps flashing the "nook" logo and turns off and on again in loops. Is there any possible solution to salvage this tablet by doing something with a sd card? Any help or ideas would be appreciated. Thanks
Make a bootable SD as described in the dummies guide and try reinstalling the recovery and OS from scratch. You must have done this to modify the Nook in the first place.

There is also some help about corrupt partition data in the CM12.1 thread
http://forum.xda-developers.com/nook-hd/development/unofficial-cm12-1-nook-hd-hd-2015-04-08-t3078260
I suppose it is possible the eMMC could fail but I wouldn't jump to that conclusion yet.
Thanks for the tip. I tried making a bootable sd card from the dummies guide but it still didn't go into cyanoboot screen and the "nook" splash start up screen goes on and off. I'm on a mac so the partition step of setting it to active is my one hiccup, not sure if this step is important. I may try it on a pc next to see if I get a breakthrough.
Finally got my tablet functional again. Loaded latest cm 11 nightly but seems less responsive and not as smooth. Are there any fixes or patches for this issue? Thank you

Hello.
I have a little problem here and need some advise please. I bought my nook and it came with v1.1.0 firmware. I rooted my nook yesterday and installed rom manager and subsequently CWR. When I flashed cwr I used nook color not nook color old. When ever I tried to make a backup of the rom using cwr it would not mount /system.
I then reflashed cwr and tried nook color old and was able to perform a backup (or so I thought). After the backup was complete the phone rebooted into cwr and now I can get the nook to reboot. It always reboots back into cwr. I have tried turning the nook off and rebooting as well as restoring the nand backup that I just made but it still will only go back to the cwr section.
Please any help would be greatly appreciated. I do not have any other backups saved on my computer that I can go to. Would you suggest taking out my sd card and installing something on it trying something that way?
Thanks in advance for any assistance.
Best,
Anything anyone. I have tried just about all I know and still cant get it. I am able to burn the honeycomb image and boot up with the sd card but of course as soon as I remove it and restart the nook reboots straight into CWM recovery.
I have tried factory reset and all but still nothing. Any ideas please.
here you go - post 7 in this thread has the fix:
Thanks smitty. I just found it as you posted. Much appreciated though. Now I am back to stock and am stuck on the registration. Attempts to register with B&N for some reason wont go through. Gonna search it a bit to see if I can find a solution. Am sure someone else has had this problem.

CWR Couldn't mount the system partition because there is a bug with the current CWR, you have to install the "kernel" manually. And don't use the "Old nook CRW" either.
Follow the directions found in this thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=971197
To make it short, using ROM Manager, flash the latest CRW 3.0.1.0 for Nook Color. (No flash old one)
Then use ADB to push the kernel file to the boot partition and you are set.
I flash my NC with CM7.0, now everything seems working fine, but I found there are sometime(not always) it stuck at boot animation, after touch the future of reading, it just stuck there.
this happens alot when I turn it off for long time, I am not sure what is the problem seems it doesn't happen every time.
I am having the same problem, but noticed that if i take the SD card out the NC starts normally. so i am figuring somthing is left on there from the install that is causing the hang up.... or maybe it is something else and i am too naive to realize what it is. Any help would be appreciated.
Using CM7.0 stable.
I tried to install CM7 on my nook color and i didnt follow the proper method and instead saved the CM7 file to the root of my sd card and installed the zip through clockworkrecovery without wiping or cache and now im stuck at the android boot screen. It isnt the CM7 skateboard android boot but rather the plain android root boot screen. If anyone could help it would be helpful thank you! IM crying right now about it

Hold power+n for 10 seconds to turn off
Clockwork bootable sd card, wipe system/data/cache (not boot), install cm7 from zip, install gapps from zip.
This is for a clean fresh install.
I made the same mistake yesterday going from stock nook to cm7 on nook #3 (so used to flashing nightlies on the other 2 i forgot to wipe system first)
Hi guys,
I just got two HD+ 32GB and installed cm-10.1-20130527-UNOFFICIAL-ovation-emmc following evergreen and leapinlar's instructions. The installation went well, and I can boot the tablets into twrp recovery. But I cannot boot one tablet into Android. It always hangs on CyanogenMod log (the rotating circle/wheel with CyanogenMod text at the center) when trying to boot into Android. I reboot the tablet several times now and still have the same issue.
I repeated the same procedure on another Nook HD+ 32GB and I can boot the second tablet into Android after several reboots. But I still have no luck with the first tablet.
Any suggestion?
Thanks a lot for the help!

I installed CM10.1 eMMC on my HD+ for the first time last night and the same thing happened to me. So I went back into recovery and installed the CM10.1 again and then it booted up normally afterwards. So in my case at least it seems like it didn't install right on the first try.

Thanks a lot for the suggestion. I finally got It to work by booting into TWRP to wipe system, data, and caches, then re-installing from zips.

Same issue, apparently (hopefully...) resolved
LIke many other posters here and elsewhere, I installed CM 10.1 on my brand new Nook HD+ 32gb, got it to boot into CWM after many trials and tribulations (I had to reboot about 30 times to get the device to boot into recovery from SD; it crashed halfway through backup in spectacularly frustrating fashion, and it took me about 30 more hard resets to get it to boot into CWM again. I used a brand new Amazon Basics 32gb class 10 card). I did a little victory dance, loaded up some apps (probably too aggressively: 50 or 60 of them), rebooted, and.... you know what happened then, or you wouldn't be reading this (probably whilst sweating and/or crying).
After uninstalling some resource-intensive apps, then booting into recovery and wiping both caches, I was able to reboot normally (aside from waiting a couple of minutes for apps to be "updated" or "optimized" or whatever), but the next and all subsequent reboots failed unless I first booted into recovery and wiped the caches.
Finally, after reading a number of posters with the same problem (including @Ravynmagi and @sean_nj here--thanks, guys), I took a deep breath, did a full Titanium backup, booted into CWM, did a factory data reset, and reinstalled the three zips from the bootable SD. CM booted quickly and normally. I rebooted a couple of times with no problems. I installed a few apps, rebooted normally. I installed a few more apps (including a couple which I sideloaded), again rebooted normally. In the last 18 hours, I've installed a few more apps, played some resource-intensive games, tested Netflix and a sideloaded video, etc.
As of now, the device works like a charm and boots quickly and without drama. If anything changes (and I'm still able to communicate like a civilized human being), I'll make sure to update here.
unable to reboot get spinning logo
I recently updated Nook HD+ to 10.1 w/o problems.Each time I have rebooted it take 2 -3 tries before it finally boots ups. Those other times if boots to the spinning Cyanogen logo. Is there something I can do to check with the system booted up correctly to figure out the problem. If not, what steps should I take now and how do you do a complete backup of all the newly added material since the initial update. Thanks again,
Al
I'm facing the same problems but with a different setup: latest CM 10.2 Carbon ROM release (both versions with and without multiwindow). I have random bootloops and I'm unable to track down the problem.
Are we the only users with those bootloops?
Was searching for this. I am not having a problem booting per se, but all of a sudden I am getting a weird booting thing. Where the logo comes up and spins but its distorted, then it becomes normal looking, then my Nook will kind of reboot. Not a complete reboot just the screen goes black for a millisecond and then the logo starts over again where its all distorted, then it goes normal and then it boots.
I guess you can call it a logo boot loop. The thing is, it doesn't happen all he time, just most of the time now. When it happens, my SD card is incorrectly mounted and I have to umount it and take it out physically and re-insert it.
Nook HD+ 32gb, CM 10.1.3 stable and mbg4ga emmc. Not sure if this is the same as you guys but it sounds related. I've re-flashed several times. I think if you guys can find a cure, then it would probably work for me as well. Quick question, any of you guys using auto-patcher to patch Pdroid? How about Xposed?
For getting caught in the boot loop try:
Settings>Launcher>uncheck wallpaper quick render.
This is for stock Trebuchet 1.0 Launcher. I hope the developers are aware of this.
Probably coincidental but, the glitch caused by the magnetic closure on my case much better.(when you try to unlock and it blinks and goes back to lock).
Good luck.
Hello. As per instructed, I have search the threads, but haven't found anything like the problem I'm facing. Most can get to recovery or hand on the cyanogen loading. As such I am posting this query to see if anyone can help me.
I have been using Cyanogen 10.1 emmc on my new B&N HD+ tablet for about a week now, installed by following the guide found here. I made sure to make back up at every step; before flashing Cyrogen, and after. Anyways Yesterday, the tablet refuses to boot. I can press the power button, the Nook hd+ and connect it using usb, but the screen remains blank (black). It never gets to the nook screen or the cyanogen loading screen. I have tried to restore a backup, but no matter what I do, I can't get the nook to boot into recovery mode. I have tried 3 different boot sd, but none bring up the loader, not even the one that work when I first installed Cyanogen.
I have drained the battery completely and recharge it about 2 times now and I have held down the N + Power methods. I installed TWRP as a replacement over stock recovery mode. Any help would be appreciated.

Kind of out of my league, but search this thread - http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2317500 for twrp. Reports of problems with backup/restore using twrp. Maybe try a bootable cwm card
Nook HD Plus has been running great. Cyanogen running fully on internal memory with no issues. I was using TWRP and wanted to go back to CWM. So I flashed it and all seemed fine. Then I rebooted, and now it is stuck on the First Nook Splash Screen. I have tried to reinstall everything using a bootable SD card but still will not get past the Nook Screen. I can use the SD Card to boot into CWM and it takes all the installs just fine, but still stuck on the Nook Screen. Any ideas??? I have tried to install everything from stock to Carbon with the same results.

Have you found a solution yet? I am facing the same problem since trying out cyanogenmod 11 (SD-Version) alongside CM 10.2. Always stuck on NOOK Screen TWRP and CWM bootable from SD, no installs possible.

I have not. I did find out that the main issue is the internal drive was somehow formatted and that is why it will not boot properly. Not sure how it happened, but I think the main bump here will be to try and reformat the drive so it can load the bootloaders properly......it works with the SD card because the bootloader files are on the SD.....driving me nuts.

Try and install stock plain rom and let your device charge (must be turned on!) for 5 hours.
Worked for me:good:

Beware that two of the HD+ partitions (see section #16 of http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=34168454#post34168454 for a complete list of partitions) namely /rom and /factory contain your device's unique factory-installed data such as WiFi MAC address, encryption keys, etc. You'd lose all this data, without which your HD+ cannot run, upon reformatting the entire drive -- unless you know how to backup and restore them.
Actually before doing any of those, you will always need to select the wipe data option when you boot to the CWM Recovery. Since you went from TWRP to CWM, you'll need to wipe it, and then flash it. Try that and see if it works.
