Hello guys, my SD card stopped working today. It says it was broken, but I tried it in my friends HTC desire HD and it worked. Since i couldn't change ROMS i had to format it. It works for now, but I just wanted to warn you. Dunno if it had anything to do with CM7.
As I recall that's a known issue with some nightlies. Don't remember which, but its in the nightlies forum.

Try formatting the card?
I had the same problem a couple of times, a full shutdown and restart of the phone solved it. looks like some problem in mounting the fs after the 1st boot after flashing 2me
And how can i listen to music on the sdcard?

i just got my htc hd2 cause someone stole my old one, on my old one, it was easy 2 put android on the sd, with my new hd2 no rom will work, it loads, but when android turns on it will lag, and apps crash and say force close, and the market wont work, i tried this and mcc's 4.5 and its the same thing happening, what should i do?
Have you tried a full wipe in clockwork and then installed? Do that as your first option and if that doesn't work then Task29, reflash MAGLDR/cLK then clockwork and then your ROM.
im noob, i dunno what clockwork is and how 2 do that? and i never used mgldr/clk on my old hd2, i just did a simple drag and drop onto my sd card, then flashed it, and it always worked fine, now when it works, theres always problems, also, do you know how i can reformat my sd card? ty for help, appriciate it!

If you don't know all that stuff... you should not be trying to root or ROM yet. Go check out T-Macgnolia's post. You shoulld really read up on it before you monkey around with your phone.
Sounds like he's running from the sd card, not NAND. Have you flashed HSPL and radio yet? Please look around the forums. There are some excellent guides to get you started

This will help clarify. Did you load windows first on your old phone before launching android?

yes i launched w.m first on my old phone, and it always worked i would go to clrcad and haret and it always worked just fine, i used americanandroid, but my new phone when i put android folder on my sd card, it boots, but it lags alot, and forces programs to shut down, wifi is slow etc.

Yeah you need to install HSPL and a new radio. Again, there are several guides on how to do this. Search around a bit. One thing though, if it was me, I would just install on NAND and bypass windows altogether. The guide linked above should tell you all about it and how to do it.

I thought I'd post here since I'm having a problem with android install and I'm a noob as well (probably more noob than the person posting here). I tried installing nand android on my HD2 and followed the steps exactly. At least I'm pretty sure I did. I installed MAGDLR, then the recovery, and then android. Everything seems fine when booting except it just hangs at the HTC screen. I left it at the HTC screen over night since I heard the first boot would be long. So now I am wondering what are my options. I wanted to install WM again so I can retry the android rom install but since it stuck at the HTC screen, device manager doesn't see it. I didn't brick it did I? Thanks for your help in advance!
I followed this thread.

Couple things, did you first install HSPL and radio? Those go on before anything else. Second, how did you install the rom? Through usb or through recovery? Lastly, if you flashed via recovery, how did you transfer the zip to sd card? CWM has been known to corrupt files during transfers. I would recommend using a usb card reader or through magldr's usb mount option.
Actually one last thing. Make sure you have selected the correct recovery size. A ROM requiring 150mb will work on a 400mb partiotion, but not the other way around.

It's actually MAGLDR that corrupts files, not clockwork.
It's most likely that you don't have the right partition size though. You can change the partition by going to your clockwork file on your PC, opening it, then look for a file 'flash.cfg' and right click on it and open it in a text editor, then editing the line "system ya | 150" to whatever the ROM needs. The '150' will most likely be 150, 300 and 400 etc. so just change the numbers and save it.
ok i will try and do nand, what is one of the best nand to use, ty so much for help.
Hmm maybe you're right skelly, not sure. Either way it's best to use a card reader.
Fly, I'm using typhoon cm7 version 3.0.0. I found that it's the best for me

I would have always said one of the CM versions... great ROMs. Finally tried MIUI this week in preperation for putting it on my woman's G2 (always thought it looked like a girly ROM). OMG I'm hooked! I don't think I can ever go back to CM again. It's blown me away.
But you cannot go wrong with the popular CM ROMs. I tried the Sense one also for the eyecandy I love... but none of them ran smoothly for me.
I think did something wrong. I followed this tutorial:
hmm I can't post the youtube link. If you go to google and type in How to Install CyanogenMod 7 on the Nook Color and click on the first link you'll find it.
When I got to the part where it says to format the data, I got an error message. Then when it said to install zip from sd card, I got an error saying can't mount sd card. So I went back to wipe data/factory reset and did that. After that I took the sd card out and did reboot system now. But now it won't go beyond the screen with the N on it. What do I do now? At this point I just want to put it back to it's original state. Please help. I'm afraid I broke it. And I'm sorry if I sound like a noob.
I tried installing the latest version of CM7 nightly. By using a different method and memory card. I followed the guide here:
[ROM][CM7] [v1.3] Size-agnostic SD Card image and CM7 installer for SD Cards.
I installed the image file on the memory card. Took it out then put it back in like it said to. But now my computer can't find the memory card. In other words the card won't show up on my computer anymore. What happened? I'm so disgusted right now
Deep breath. OK? Happens to us all.
I'd suggest you start from the beginning. Format your uSD using this in your computer and not your NC. Often errors start with a bad format.
I'm using CM7 7.0 as it seems the most stable for me. It's often best to used signed versions as those are reported to be the most stable. Get it here
Create a good bootable disk with that has CWM ( http://androidforums.com/nookcolor-...workmod-version-3-2-0-1-recovery-sd-card.html), WinImage is fluky so I'd suggest this copy your CM7 ROM to it (on your computer), boot doing either a factory reset or wipe cache and dalvik. You can wipe data is you want but will have to reinstall all your programs if you do.
Keep in mind that often the first boot up after ROM install might take a few minutes. You might have to even hard reboot. It happens.
Again, most problems start with a wonky formatted uSD and just multiply from there.
Thank you very much! I got it working. Now I just need to know a few more things. Where can I download the latest google apps pack and overclock kernal for my nook? And can I still access the barnes & noble bookstore? If so how?

Okay I just downloaded the latest version of the android market. And now when I try to download adobe flash player 10.3, I get a message that says your device is not compatible with this item. So now what?
If you have CyanogenMod 7 take a look at their Site maybe someone else had the same problem and knows what to do.
They have a very good forum and i'm sure you will find a fix there.

Well when I go to YouTube and tap on a video, first it says loading video then I get a message saying Cannot play video sorry this video cannot be played. It's the same thing when I use the YouTube app. I have the latest version of adobe flash player installed because megavideo works.
Alright I tried uninstalling the YouTube apk and reinstalling it again. That didn't work. I tried doing the wipe data thing with titanium backup. That didn't work. I tried downloading the EVO HD YouTube app. That didn't even start up. I made sure that I was not signed in to YouTube. That didn't work. I'm about ready to give up.
Well guys I finally did it. I got YouTube working. I had to completely uninstall everything and install the latest cm encore nightly release. Everything seems to be working now.
Problem. N64oid doesn't work anymore. It was working fine before I did the new install. Now whenever I try to load a rom it freezes and I have to hard reset my nook color. Anyway to fix this?

Hi all,
I just had a question about upgrading to CM 7.2RC. I am currently running the stable version of CM 7.1. It has been awhile since I changed out the rom. Did I have to do a full wipe of the device before upgrading to the RC? Or can I just wipe the cache and install the update so it maintains everything else on the device.
Any help on this would be appreciated. Thanks.

Just do the second thing. No full wipe.
This thread down in the cyanogenMod forums shows you how to upgrade if you did not know how or want to gleam more information on this. Or for anyone else that is interested. http://forum.cyanogenmod.com/topic/40698-installing-nightly-builds-and-new-71/
Ok, but what do I do if I'm running off a bootable SD card? I was told to just copy the new rom to my F boot, then boot into recovery. I have done this over and over again with no success. I'm sure I'm doing something wrong. if I'm supposed to copy the rom to a specific partition, then Im screwed because I don't know how to do that.lol. By the way, till about 3 months ago I could count on one hand how many times I'd sat down at a computer. Got a nook color as a gift
,and have been in love ever since. I'm running cm7.1 stable, at 1200mhz. I've had to teach myself every step, every step of the way. So if I sound like a idiot, its because I know nothing about computers, but I am learning. Thank you for your patients

You are probably not renaming the zip to begin with update-. You must do that before the installation script will recognize it.
Sent from my Nook Color running ICS and Tapatalk
Yes I have renamed it. it was cm-7.2 and I changed it to update-cm-7.2 but still nothing. here's the thing, when I try to format this card on my PC, its saying its write protected, and to switch it off. I assume it means the lock switch on the sd card adapter. If thats the case, something is screwed up, because its not locked. I don't think its my adapter cause its not saying that with other cards. When I copy the cm7.2 it says its copying just fine and I can see it on the card but if I take it out and put it back in, its not there. Sorry for the pain in the butt question, and thank you for your time.

I had the same thing happen to one of my sdcards. I could not format it, or write things to it. I could read it fine, just not change anything. I tried all kinds of readers and software (formatters, partitioners, etc.) It would look like it wrote to it, but take it out of PC and put it back, it was not there. I finally had to throw it away and get a new one. This all happened on my phone, not my nook.
Dear All,
After losing my Samsung Galaxy Note in Amsterdam during a heavy weekend I am back on my girlfriend's old ZTE Blade and have been trying to update it a little.
I downloaded the KonstaKang ROM and GApps to the ext. Sd card and booted into clockwork mod recovery (I rooted and flashed a custom rom for her when I gave it to her originally).
I did the full wipe just to make it all as clean as poss and went to install the new rom but ran into some problems.
Firstly the sd card could not be accessed. It was if it was not mounted. I tried various things including mounting it in mounts and storage, restarting recovery, reformatting the sd in another android and the pc etc. Eventually (it felt random) it let me choose zip from sd.
Thats when the rom was selected but it then told me that the rom was (bad) and would not install. Again I redownloaded it and another rom and also a new version of cwm. Still nothing would work it was all (bad).
Out of frustration I kept trying and eventually it changed its mind and let me install the rom. After installation I attempted to reboot system but it just hanged at the boot logo and would go no further.
I have tried all the above multiple times and all combos of things I can think of to get it to work but no luck. The phone randomly seems to decide if the .zips are (bad) but at least it allows me to access them now. Ive also tried installing the other rom and new cwm but nothing will work. Boot logo and nothing more.
Anyone have any ideas what might be wrong? Whats the best way to get a rom on this old blade?!
Many thanks x

Well, first, you have an S3. Why use the Blade?
Second, have you looked into TPT + ROM? Also, what Gen blade is it? Once you can get something stable like cm7 booting, we can progress further

Well I believe it is a gen2 blade. I vaguely remember having to update it from gen1 but I cant be 100% sure. It was a long time ago!
I am using my girlfriends s3 to get on these forums so unfortunately I cant keep it!
I havent looked at tpt + rom and am unsure what that is at the moment . I shall have a read.
I must also say that I managed to install a new version of cwm but still no luck with any roms.
I am loading new roms on the ext sd from this s3 or through my pc I was wondering if the files were getting corrupted somehow. My pc doesnt see the phone so I have to use a card reader.
So yes roms are still saying 'cant open... (bad)' error when trying to install...

Hi,
So I got my girlfriend this gift basically right when it came out. I rooted it, and flashed CM 7.1 RC1 (literally came out that day) a long time ago.
She gave it to me yesterday to get her PDF's on there. I opened the market and nothing would pop up except for the like 5 total apps, while the Browser was working 100% fine. I go to my apps in the market and try downloading updates and they kept failing. I was frustrated, so I downloaded the latest Cyanogen Nightly and Gapps. I updated CWM to 6.0.3.1, then made a backup of the existing ROM. I went into recovery, and tried finding the Nightly and Gapps I downloaded, but the SD Card would never mount. I'm not sure how I can fix this.
Please help, thanks a ton!

Since you did it so long ago, do you remember if you installed the CM7 to emmc or SD? That may be your issue.
And how did you get 6.0.3.1? Rom Manager? That may be your issue too.

Thanks for the responses! To be 100% honest, I don't remember how I rooted/flashed. I know I had to buy an SD card for it though, and the SD card is labeled BOOT
I did get 6.0.3.1 through ROM Manager.

Do you need the SD inserted for it to boot to your CM7? If so, you installed to SD and with an SD installation, you do not use CWM to install upgrades. That is why you cannot see the zip you downloaded. If you want to upgrade a CM7 SD install to CM10, you need to start over with a newly burned SD. The old SD setup is not compatible with CM10. Use my guide linked in my signature.
You might just want to put CM10 on internal memory, replacing whatever is there. Just download the new CM zip to emmc with CM7, boot to emmc CWM, remove the SD, wipe data/factory reset and flash the new CM zip using the "install from SD/choose from internal memory" option. Then you need to flash the right gapps to match. Then reboot. Once you are sure everything is working, you can format your old SD with SDFormatter so it can be used as a normal data SD. Get it free on the web.
