Hello xda experts!!!!! I really need some help!!! The thing is like this : I have installed cm10 alpha 1 for nook on sd card!!! While i was installing it my nook color was also connected to the computer. So in WinImage i accidently chose the 1 gb of nook color instead of the 32 gb sandisk class 10 which i had inserted in pc via card reader. So it began writing on nook color's internal 1 gb memory. More to that, I interrupted this procedure and performed full format in minitool partition manager. i didnt knew the format of internal memory of nook color so i chose fat32 formatting style. But when i rebooted nook color after disconnecting it kept on showing message that system has encountered some issue and it requires the system to restart.But even after reboot the same error kept on showing up!!!!! And since yesterday the stock b&n OS has stopped working completely!!! Doesnt even show the error which it previously used to show!!! Plz resolve this error and help ASAP!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Use my partition repair zips in my emmc partition repair thread linked in my signature. Flash with my bootable CWM SD in my tips thread also linked in my signature. Then you can reflash stock back to emmc as also explained in my tips thread.

You need to use my CWM bootable SD. It has been modified to boot in bootloop situations. You can get it on my tips thread linked in my signature.

I dont know how but its on again !!! I think the device was hanged badly and when it was dicharged completely then it booted back up!!! However i still get system error in barnes and noble nook OS while cm10 is running like butter!!!
I still dont get it whether my partitions have been damaged in the nook OS. Beacause i had just formatted the 1gb of data which we get in nook and have nothing to do with partitions!!! However thanx leapinlar!!! You rock!!! Yur contribution in xda is noteworthy!!! Keep up the good work!!!::good:
Bricked while installing TWRP
Hi guys,
sorry to warm up this thread, but I think I have a similar Problem. I was running CMW with CM10.1 and I tried to install TWRP using the manager app, bit I think I chose the wrong model and now I am stuck with a loop of the nook logo at the beginning. I cant even boot from sd card or anything. Does somebody have an idea how to fix this?
Cheers!

You probably messed up you partitions. Go to my NC partition repair thread linked in my signature. But you will somehow have to get the NC to boot to SD. Also make sure you really have a Color instead of a Nook Tablet. Colors have a black bezel and Tablets have a grey one.

Thx leapinlar,
infact I do have an Nook HD+. Problem is I cant get it to boot from SD. I already tried the HD+ bootable CMW-Images u posted in ur other thread, however it never gets out of the nook-logo loop. It seems like the partitions are so messed up that it cant boot from sd... could one somehow solve this by connection the thing to a pc?
Cheers!

Hello everyone,
Im new to this forum but have lurked for a few years. I consider myself reasonably familiar with android and have installed custom roms on various devices in the past.
Yesterday I installed the latest CM10 Color Nook Rom to an micro SD and on to my wife's Nook Color. Install went great, Wifi up and working and I went to install Gapps via recovery. When it came back on the keyboard kept dying and I realized I had installed too new of Gapps. My bad. I shut off the nook and removed the micro SD with the intentions of wiping it out and starting fresh.
I put the nook off to the side and about 15 mins later went to install my fresh install of JB when I found the nook completely dead and unresponsive. The battery was at about 90% when i turned it off.
This was only supposed to be a install to the sd, I dont know why it's affecting the nook when theres no sd card in it.
So far I have tried:
pulling out the sd card
hard reset
creating a nook color restore micro sd and booting from that
charging
The nook remains completely dead and 100% unresponsive and I have no idea where to go from here! I keep reading its hard to brick these but im starting to think thats what happened!
I was thinking of taking off the cover and doing a battery pull. Any ideas?
If you truly have nothing happening, it certainly sounds like a hardware problem. Pulling battery to reset is worth a try. It's worked for me on several Android devices (never tried it with a Nook, though). Somewhere recently in the forum I read how to do a safe battery pull on a Noo, but don't recollect where. Search for it. If that fails, I'd say your Nook is kaput.

No, don't pull the cover. What happened is your boot files got corrupted on internal memory. It will not power on unless those files are there or a valid bootable SD is in the slot.
You need to get my bootable CWM SD from my tips thread linked in my signature. That should boot. Then you need to reinstall whatever ROM you had on internal memory. If it was stock you can get the CWM flashable version also from my tips thread.

Im going to try your linked CWM and create the SD from your tips first. The last I saw the battery it said roughly 80% and assuming it wasn't stuck in some loop it should be still good.
If the battery IS actually dead will the nook charge with no OS installed? My charger cord came apart months ago and I have been charging (slowyly; lol) off a generic cord plugged into the computer. Will this make a difference or should I wait to try this when I have a proper charger cord?
Thanks for everyone's help! You guys are lifesavers!

My CM10 went completely dead last week. I put lepinlar's v6.0.1.2 Bootable CWM Recovery on and SD card and now have some sign of life.
I get to the cyanoboot universal bootloader screen, but it just sits with a Loading.... note. I've let it sit for about 10 minutes and nothing else happens. I also tried the N key and it does load the boot menu...but no option gets me past that initial screen...
should it just boot directly into CMW? any other suggestions would be appreciated!

Not really sure what you mean. You say you put my bootable CWM on SD. You mean you burned the image to an SD? And it boots to the cyanoboot screen but gets stuck on loading...?
Does the cyanoboot screen have a small s0 in the upper left corner? If does that means it is trying to boot from the SD. It should boot directly into CWM by itself.
Try reburning it or use my 5.5.0.4 version. Once it gets to CWM, install a new ROM with it. The original reason it went dead was corrupted files on your internal boot partition. Reflashing the ROM should fix it.

thanks for the reply.
I've used Win32diskimager to burn both v6.0.1.2 and 5.5.04 to an SD card. I do see the S0 in the upper left corner, but the screen never moves past the initial Loading...screen.
I can get it to load clockworkmod using a '1gb_clockwork-3.0.1.0' recovery image (also tried 1gb_clockwork-3.2.0.1-eyeballer w/the same result). However, I get a message that states:
E:Can't mount /cache/recovery/command
E:Can't mount /cache/recovery/log
E:Can't open /cache/recovery/loginterrrupt
E:Can't mount /cache/recovery/last_log
E:Can't open /cache/recovery/last_log
I then attempted to flash your Nook Color EMMC Partition Repair zips....The NookColor-emmc-repair-partitions-1-4-5-6-7-8.zip will complete the 'repartitioning /boot /system /data /cache and media' step.
it sticks on the Repartitioning internal memory - be patient this may take a while'...i've let it sit for about 30+ minutes...how long should this take? My nook is currently sitting in this phase now...I guess I'll let it sit for a while and see if anything else happens.
thanks for the help with this...from what I've read, I'm hopeful there is a solution...

Which recovery are you using to flash the repair zips? It needs to be at least 3.2.0.1. Don't use that 3.0.1.0. Don't worry about those E: messages, it just means cache is not formatted.
It is sounding like the first step of the repartitioning is not taking. That is fixing partition one. I'll be right back with another zip to see if you can flash that.
Try the attached and see what happens. You can also try the bootable TWRP to flash rather than CWM. I have that linked in that partition fix thread.

I did try with the 3.2.0.1 recovery and the flash you posted above. It is still sticking at the 'repartitioning internal memory' step...I also tried your TWRP bootable, but that still sticks at the loading screen.
I can't find my external sd writer, so I've been writing/burning using in internal writer in two different laptops and a camera in mass storage mode. I ordered a SD writer from amazon...should get it on Wednesday. I wonder if my issues are just with writing/burning the SD card..
I'll report back when I get the new writer and guess I might as well try another card too.

It is possible it is the card. It might be good enough to start the boot, but not good enough to read and write the files that are needed. Definitely try a different card.
EDIT: Now that I think about it, I am almost positive that is what is wrong. Try a SanDisk class 4.

scthomps, you could get a NC replacement charging cable from ebay, just do a search, it works good for me.
I'm actually running into this problem right now with two different nook color tablets.
One I've had CM10 installed to the EMMC for well over a month without any problems. The other Nook Color I followed the same procedure to install to the EMMC off a bootable SD card.
Regardless of how little or much power the Nook has, it will not even power on unless I have a bootable SD card installed.
Once I get to the menu, I can boot from the internal EMMC without any problems. Not sure what I did to correct the /boot partition on two different Nooks. Least of all one that's been working.
Going to try boot into recovery to see if I can fix whatever corruption got introduced.

You need a complete set of boot files on the internal boot partition or it won't even try to turn on by itself without a bootable SD. You don't. It needs MLO, u-boot.bin, uImage and uRamdisk there. You obviously have the MLO or u-boot.bin missing or corrupted because uImage and uRamdisk must be there to boot from the SD menu.
This is all fixable by just flashing your ROM again. Those files all get put back on fresh.

Hi leapinlar I think I have the same problem as this guy except its on a Nook HD +, becuase I get that same error message when I boot into a bootable cwm. Can you help me out please?
I had created a CWM bootable flash drive before which worked fine. Unfortunately the drive got formatted accidentally. Now when I create the same CWM bootable following the exact instructions, Nook HD+ does not boot from it and goes straight to Nook stock 2.1.0. And I have tried two different microSD cards without any success.
Any suggestions? I am using Windows 8.

I was having this same problem. What I found is that if I let it boot to the stock OS, then shut it down and power it back on, then on the second boot up the CWM would start.

I tried your suggestion but without success. Just wondering once you let a CWM microSD boot to stock OS then Nook will prepare the card and very likely kill the bootable aspect. It puts its own directory structure.
The only thing I am missing is the ability to sideload.

The card does nothing to itself that would effect how well it boots. It is your device. Some HD+'s are just hard to get things to boot from a cold start. I have two of them and one boots reliably all the time. The other, using the same card, balks. I just have to keep trying.

what you have to do, that has worked for me, is after putting the CWM card in, if it boots to stock..just shut it down and try booting again.
Hey so I was trying to flash a dev build of Ubuntu Touch to my NC, and in the midst of excitement, I accidently formatted /boot.
Now my NC will come on, but hangs at Cyanoboot "Loading..." I've even tried flashing the 1gb CWM image to an sd and trying that. However, my nook will boot, I'll hold "n" to enter the boot menu, and I'll click "SD Card Normal". After that, it hangs at "Loading (SD)..."
Any ideas on how to fix my nook? I'd hate to have a $75 paperweight.

I dd'd the img file to the SD and it booted into Cyanoboot from the SD ONCE. After that, I had to format because choosing either option didnt work(?, I don't quite remember.) I figured I got a malformed download, so I redownloaded the file, extracted it, formatted my SD, dd'd the img file over to the SD, and now my Nook doesn't recognize it anymore. Turning it on boots me back into Cyanoboot on the EMMC.
Am I missing something? I've been flashing ROMs for over a year on 5+ devices and this is the first 'major' problem I've had.

I don't understand, choosing what options? It should have booted directly to CWM with no intervention from you.
The Nook family of devices are hard to get a bootable SD to boot. They have to be burned just right, especially if using DD on a Mac or Linux. Be sure to choose the whole device, not just a single partition.

The time it did work, I turned my NC on and it booted into Cyanoboot showing that it was ran off of the SD (by the SD0 label in the top left, currently, without the SD, it shows EMMC 01). I held down "n" to access the boot menu and two options were available, "SD Card Normal" and "SD Card Recovery". Neither option worked, so I ejected it and redid the whole process.
As for dd'ing, I'll look up how to write to the whole SD, as of now, whenever I dd the img file, it creates a seperate fat32 partition the house the files and leaves 15gb unallocated.

Don't hold n, just let it go.

I don't know why, but sometimes it makes a difference if the card is full wipe formatted with SDFormatter before reburning. Get it free on the web.

I can flash an 8gb CWM image to the SD, and Cyanoboot will recognize it, but won't let me boot into it. It stills sticks on "Loading (SD)..."

Where did you get an 8GB image? Or did you mean my image to an 8 GB card?
Edit: I was just rereading your first post, and you said you formatted /boot. If that is true there is no way you are booting to emmc cyanoboot (showing EMMC01). You must either not have formatted it or flashed something else there after you formatted it. In any case, emmc boot partition may have bad files so you should never be trying to use the emmc cyanoboot. That may be why it gets stuck on loading. You must get an SD to boot on its own so you don't have to use emmc cyanoboot.

I figured it out. I had flashed a modified Cyanoboot, and it had no ROM to boot into. I think it was my adapter that wasn't allowing me to boot into the CWM image. I got a new adapter, deleted all partitions off my sd and then dd'd your CWM image. Popped it onto my NC and it worked!
Hi, I'm a moron. I accidentally dragged some files that I meant to put in a different window onto my Nook's internal storage, and now I can't boot past "Read Forever"—it doesn't even continue to the N, shuts back down to black. It does this whether or not the SD card is in. Since I put CWM on it, now I can't restore from the 8 boot attempts, but I also can't seem to restore from anything else on the SD card.
I just erased everything on the card and put stock NC 1.2 on it, but I still have no luck booting up the NC to it.
How do I fix this? I can't even mount the NC on a computer to delete the files. (They were .just 2 zip files of CM10 and Google Apps.)
Hey, just to clarify, by "internal storage" I mean the same space where you can sideload files.

That still does not help me. You mean the drives that show up in windows explorer? That should not have caused any problem. Give use a bit more info. There must have been something else that happened.
If you go to my NC Tips thread linked in my signature, I have both bootable CWM SDs and a zip you can flash to put stock recovery back on internal memory so you can do the 8 failed boot. There are even instructions on how to do the 8 failed boot. See item A12.

Yeah, it was put into that space called "MyNook" (or such) where you can add other files. I also don't know what is going wrong, and I'm confused. I had just used uNooter and then CWM, and was going to load CM10 and GApps but I have not been able to boot beyond "Read Forever" since they were dragged to that internal drive.
I just put on the bootable CWM and a stock zip to the SD card but apparently now my Nook needs to charge before I can see if it works.

What is uNooter and where did you get it? I think that is your problem.

I found uNooter through the CyanogenMod wiki page for the NC. (I am not allowed to post URLs, apparently.) I followed that page and got as far as replacing the stock recovery, with everything working fine. Then I ran into issues with getting ADB to work with Terminal, so I never got CM10 or GApps onto the SD card. I dragged them to the internal storage and when I tried to reboot into the stock Nook, it didn't work. (I was able to reboot after rooting and replacing stock recovery before this, both with and without the SD card, there was only a problem after the files went onto the internal storage.)

It was not putting those files on internal memory that caused the issue. Something else happened with the uNooter after you installed it.
If my stock recovery zip and 8 failed boot does not fix it, I recommend you go to my NC partition repair thread linked in my signature and follow the steps there.

Thanks, I will be trying the NC partition repair next. It seems to be ignoring the bootable CWM & stock zip entirely (or at least it will not boot at all) despite being fully charged.
EDIT: It looks like I spoke too soon! I'm now able to boot into CWM after leaving the NC sitting around for a few hours! I restored the ROM, put on stock 1.4.1, then did 8 failed boots and went back down to 1.2.0.
So, now I am now to 100% stock and debating my next steps.

If you want rooted stock, go to my NC Tips thread, follow A15 and put 1.4.3 on it, then go to Manual Nooter 5.08.20 in the dev forum.
If you want CM10.1 on SD follow my updated NC SD guide.
If you want CM10.1 on internal memory, follow eyeballer's emmc guide.
