[Q] SO confused w/ ROMs/images/kernels/uggh. Need help w/ what to do :(

My head is aching with the sheer amount of information it is trying to process. I got a Nook Color about a month ago but have been putting off using it because I am still trying to figure out how to do what I want to do.
I've been going over the threads on the dev forum and after reading a lot of the threads, I still can't find exactly what I need (or maybe I've found it but I just haven't realized it yet).
My Nook Color is running latest official update from B&N (meaning 2.2 and B&N apps).
Anyway here's what I need:
1. I need to be able to dual boot into either HC or a rooted gingerbread-based version of android (is this the clockwork 7 thing?) solely from an SD card
2. Should not do anything to the Nooks internal memory (meaning: won't void warranty)
3. The dual boot manager, HC and and gingerbread-based version of android should all run on sd card. nothing will be placed/done on the nook (is this it? i'm so confused i'm not even sure anymore --- http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1045018)
4. The dual boot manager will still have the ability to install other custom roms on to the sd card when i put the zip file of the image on to the sd card (something like this: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1000957)
5. Should have the overclock thingamajig
Anyway, are there any solutions to this? the "Dualboot Phiremod / Honeycomb Image for SDcard" seems the closest so far but I can't figure out if it installs a rom manager into the SD card with which I can install newer versions of the overclock kernel or newer versions of the custom ROMS based on HC preview or newer version of the CM7 nightly image. gaaaah.
Please help >_<. I promise I'm not stupid. This is just like information overload and I seriously am having a real headache (not just figuratively) right now.

Follow the thread below. From it, you can install plain CM7 (the best known gingerbread rom) strictly onto your SD card. If you have multiple cards, you can try out the different flavors of CM7:
CM7 Stable (latest is 7.0.3); OR
CM7 Nightly (latest is 76); OR
Beta CM7 .32 kernel, though this one is still has some bugs.
Phiremod is a themed CM7 which I haven't tried, while the above are more plain vanilla android. Also use a Sandisk card if you have one as they seem to have better overall speed regardless of Class, at least 2gb size or bigger.

Hi LBN1, thanks for the quick reply.
Does this work process allow me to install HoneyComb as well as a separate boot option?

I just realized that I'm actually looking for an SD dual boot of HC and CM7 w/ OC. Does this exist? >.<

Oh, this process is not for a dual booting SD card. It allows a rom on a SD card, and then take out the SD card and you can boot to stock B&N software, so it is a quasi dual boot so to speak. There are some actual dual boot options out there but I don't have any experience with any of them...
Same thing with Honeycomb roms, never tried any of them since from what I read they are still in early, beta stages meaning they really don't work as well as CM7.

Hehe... yeah I kinda figured that out What I had in mind was something along the lines of dual booting HC/CM7 via SD card and removing the SD card if I wanted to boot to the stock 1.2 (so it's a quasi triple boot) >_<
But thanks for your help!

I think the easiest thing you can do right now is to try the Phiremod/Honeycomb Dual boot sd image which I see you already found out. It wont change or touch your internal system so you are safe. Also its already prepared for you so you just need to burn the img into the sd.
If inserted, the sd image will boot to either Phiremod (which is really a themed version of CM7 7.02 - with the update provided in the same thread or to Honeycomb). I use it and works quite well!!!! It is fast also (provided you use the recommended Sandisk class 4 sd card) as it is overclocked from the sd which you also want.
When I want to use stock BN I just boot without the sd and thats it! I also rooted the internal BN as well to add overclock to the stock BN 2.2 and it is quite snappy when OC to 1.1 mhz.

Hi Garoto! that's good to hear! can you point me to the thread for rooting the internal BN and adding overclock to the stock 2.2? i want to try that as well

Sure no problem:
1. To root the 1.2 version Nook just follow the steps in this thread, it is not as complicated as it sounds:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1054027
2. To install the OC Kernel I used this thread. Pretty simple process. After you root , go to the market and install ROM manager, then do flash clockwork and then reboot to recovery, then do update from zip in sd card and flash the OC Kernel. I used the 1,1 mhz as it is stable and really speed things up:

Keep in mind, overclocking definitely technically voids the warranty (as does rooting). Since you mentioned it. Just as bad as installing stuff on the internal EMMC.

I've Got a Few Noob Questions.

Alright, so after doing my research, I bought an SD card today (SanDisk 8GB, not sure of the class but it worked) and I am now running CM7 (the stable version) on my Nook Color. I had a few questions that I was hoping people could help me out on:
1. I noticed that people were commenting on the move of the notification bar to the top of the screen and its convenience. Mine is at the bottom--is there any way to change that?
2. I was watching a video on how to run Netflix on my NC, and I needed to use ES File Explorer. When I attempt to run Root Explorer in settings, it says test failed, and I don't know why.
3. Now that I have CM7 running on my NC without my SD card in, can I wipe all of that info from my SD card and have it work as a normal SD card (kind of how I use my SD card on my stock Droid 2 to save pictures, video, etc.)? If so, how can I do that?
4. The video I used never said anything about overclocking or kernels or any of that stuff, but I understand that it makes my Nook run faster--that would help, seeing as it has been a tiny bit laggy. Is there any way for me to install a kernel without reinstalling CM7, and if so, how?
Thanks in advance for all of your help!

Go into Settings/Cyanogen Settings, look for tablet tweaks. There should be a check box for bottom status bar.

Do you mean that you flashed the internal memory (eMMC) with CM7 now? Or that you have booted up CM7 off the SD card and want to use it as a normal SD card now? If you have moved to eMMC CM7, then yes you can format it and use as normal. If not on eMMC, then don't take it out, you will still have some space on the SD card to utilize (I believe, I have only run eMMC versions)

Here is the latest OC kernel for 7.0.3 (modified for ext4 so it works)
For SD : http://db.tt/3CnQxjo
For eMMC : http://db.tt/sMdWUs1
If you are still on SD version, goto the Development Section and search for answers on how to install OC kernel there, or maybe someone can help you with answers here, like I said, I haven't run a SD version yet.
Hope this helps,
Ronin

Thanks for the quick response. I managed to move my notification bar to the top, and that's a big help.
I did in fact save the mod to my internal memory, and my SD card is not in my NC anymore. How do I reformat it so that I can put it back into my NC?
And lastly, you provided me with a link to a kernel, but I am still not sure how to get it onto my NC without redoing the whole thing. Any easy to follow, step by step instructions?
And then, of course, if anyone else could help out with the Netflix/ES File Explorer, that would be great.

Do NOT use the format option inside CM7, it is a known issue that will F up your Nook and make getting things back up and running a huge pain in the a$$. Format it thru a card reader on your PC/laptop. Reboot with SD card installed in Nook, good to go.

Another option is to explore the zip for CM7, find the build.prop file in the zip, open and edit to whatever you need to. Reflash from CWR (recovery), then flash OC kernel afterwards
If thats too complicated, check this thread

Alright, so after screwing up attempting to get the kernel in, I rebooted to stock NC software and then again to CM7. Now I need to know how to get the free version of SetCPU onto my NC, or another free program that works just as well.

CM7 has a built in governor under Cyanogen Settings->Performance->CPU
SetCpu doesnt play well with CM7, it eats battery.

Alright, well I found it and it gives me 300, 600, 800, 1200 or 1300 MHz increments to use, but I thought that the highest that anyone uses was 1100. Does that mean I can't overclock mine?

Nope, the newer OC kernels have different speeds, the older one's limit was 1.1
set it 300 low, 12 or 13 high, and use ondemand as a gov or if it's in the build smartass. Download quadrant standard the market, try running the benchmark with different settings.

Alright, well I got a score of 2293 with max 1200 and 2674 with max 1300, so I guess I'll leave it at 1300.
Ronin, thanks a ton as you've been the only responder and you've helped tremendously.
Lastly, if anyone has a response for the question about Netflix/ES File Explorer, that would be great. It's telling me that the test failed and that my 'phone' can't run it.

Check this thread about getting the Netflix running. There is modified app out that doesn't require editing your build.prop

[Q] Cant overclock past 925 with dalingrins new OC kernel = ALL FIXED

Hey guys,
I am on CM7 i was on 7.0.2 official version. i downloaded and installed the beta update from dalingrin's so i am no on:
Cyanogenmod-7.1.0-RCO-encore-KANG
I then installed the OC kernel that i was under the impression should overclock to 1.2 but when i try to overclock in the CM7 settings, the most it will let me choose is 925. i'm wondering if i'm missing something?
i used the following zip for the kernel:
update-CM7-dalingrin-OC-sd-052311.zip
any help would be appreciated, i would post in the actual thread but i don't have enough posts.
thanks
EDIT: All fixed, needed to download and install the eMMC version so that it would install to internal memory instead of trying to boot off the sd card.

First off, glad you posted in the right section Already ahead of the curve!
So, did you install the beta to and SD or internal memory? I assume internal memory, in which case you need to download the OC that has eMMC in the title (which is the internal memory).

The zip for OC when you have CM7 installed to eMMC (internal memory) is update-CM7-dalingrin-OC-emmc-052311.zip
OC-sd nomenclature is for those who have CM7 installed and booting off their SD card, instead of just using it for storage space.

MIUI Nook Color 1.9.16 on SD Card?

I have searched diligently and have yet to find specific instruction for creating a bootable SD card for my NC with MIUI Nook Color 1.9.16 (or any version of MIUI for that matter).
I am currently running a fully rooted version of 1.3 on the emmc and "all is well" and I need it left that way so as to continue having access to "in store reading" which I use quite a bit.
Have previously had CM7 and Phiremod running both internally and on an SD card at various times and tried to do a previous version of MIUI on the card using the same process without any luck.
Thanks in advance.

You can use verygreens method here -

Important part is to rename the miui zip like this -
'How to update to a new build:
put the new build you want to try on the first partition. (the name must be update-cm-*.zip or cm_encore_full*.zip or just update-*.zip)'
..and it should work fine
cheers,

Many thanks as that did the trick!

Cheers,

What did you rename the MIUI file? I've tried it a couple different ways and checked the MD5's, but keep getting errors. Unless my SD card has been corrupted somehow (I used it for other SD boots before this, so not too likely), I can't think of anything else causing the problem.

Hi. I tried putting the MIUI zip in the root of the sd card and booted into recovery as stated. It was renamed as one of the cm7 updates and installation went as per normal. However, when I did boot up the nook was stuck looping the MIUI animation and did not finish. What did I do wrong?

Maybe just didn't wait long enough... the first boot takes a long time since the update script clears cache and dalvik cache.
Of course... this is just a wild guess since you didn't provide a whole lot of information... more information may yeild different feedback.

What kind of information? My nook color originally had the latest CM7 nightly on the sd card. I followed verygreen's method when I installed that. I used the NC normally. Then, I followed this thread and applied verygreen's method. I downloaded the MIUI rom from the miui thread, renamed it like the cm7 nightly zip ("cm_encore_full-253.zip") and put it in the root of the sd card. I put the sd card back in and booted via recovery. It installed and shut down. I turned it on again, and reached the MIUI globe thing. It was looping and stuck there for 30 minutes.

I've been thinking of trying miui.
If anybody has got.it running from SD please give the step-by-step procedure for the rest of us.
Thanks

I hate to revive a dead thread, but I have been trying everything I could read or download.
I am using the Size-agnostic installer from this thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1000957
I am trying to flash MIUI 1.9.16 (MIUI.us_encore_1.9.16_Eng_Deo_ZipA_Signed_andmer) (http://goo-inside.me/miui/encore/)
I successfully installed CM7 to this Sandisk Class4 16gig microSD. Every time I try to flash MIUI, I re-burn the size agnostic card image, copy over the cm7-renamed MIUI ROM, and boot.
The installer seems to work, just like my CM7 installs. Then, when I try to reboot, it goes back to the installer (linux penguin at the top, goes through the motions of trying to flash another rom, when not finding anything, it shuts down).
I know I am missing something simple.
Am I to install CM7, then MIUI on top of it (without reburning the card)? Am I just using an SD-incompatible ROM? For those who were successful, where did you download the ROM from?
I know I have lots of questions, I hope you guys see my effort (that I don't just want someone to give me a quick fix), and I thank you in advance for your help.
Kind regards!

I'm certainly no expert, but I have flashed two different versions of MiUi to micro SD cards adn then worked fine. You do not need to do i over CM7. Like you, I prepared a clean SD and used the size agnostic procedure. I renamed the MiUi file to some that started with update-cm-
I got my MiUi file here:
http://roms.miui.us/
I used a program called SD Formatter to format the card.. then I used the 1.3 version installer. I sometimes had problems using winimage to create this sd card . You have to select the drive letter for the sd card and then use the "restore" choice on the menu.

David, thanks for your response. I had already wiped it and installed CM7, but when I saw your post, I gave MIUI one last try. I downloaded from that site, and BAM, it installed perfectly! Thanks heaps!

Well in answer to the original poster in this thread, I now have a way to get Stock on a verygreen SD. Look at my tips thread linked in my signature and look at item B11 in the second post of that thread. You can even have rooted stock with OC and apps2SD support.

leapinlar said:
So the procedure to get this working is to prepare a verygreen SD using the image file attached to my SD installation instructions thread here (generic-sdcard...). Then boot it at least once with the SD installed in the Nook so the SD can partition itself. If you have an existing verygreen SD prepared, you can skip those two steps. Copy the zip files to somewhere that recovery can find them. If you use the newest versions of CWM or TWRP recovery they can read files from emmc media storage. Boot to recovery and insert the prepared verygreen SD into the Nook. Flash the ROM zip to the SD. It will format the system and data partitions on the SD and install the ROM. Boot to the SD and the new stock ROM should load. Follow the directions to register with B&N. Once you have registered you can stop there if you are satisfied with plain stock. But be warned, if B&N decides to update to a new version in the future, it may mess up whatever you have installed on emmc. Therefore I recommend that you flash the Block Updates zip which blocks OTA updates. If you flash Manual Nooter you do not have to flash Block Updates separately since it is included in Manual Nooter. To install Block Updates, Manual Nooter or OC/apps2SD support, flash the zips to the SD with recovery just like you did the ROM. If you flash Manual Nooter, it has gapps and Market with it so you must register them with Google. And you need root if you want to the OC and apps2SD support, plus you will need a program like SetCPU to adjust the processor.
You can get the modified 1.4.3 B&N stock ROM zip here, the modified Manual Nooter zip here, the modified OC/apps2SD zip here, and the modified Block Updates zip here (all four modified for verygreen SD installation).

You need to update your emmc recovery to a newer version so that you can flash those zips from internal memory (emmc media). You will run into problems finding the files with 3.2.0.1 since you have to take your normal SD out and put your verygreen SD in.
So flash this zip:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=23537853
Then copy the downloaded files to emmc media, boot to the new CWM and select the files from internal memory and flash them to your inserted verygreen SD.
EDIT: I just updated my instructions in my tips to make that clearer. Thanks.

I have built in safeguards to make sure that won't happen. If no SD is in the slot, it won't flash, if the SD in the slot is not formated with 4 partitions, it won't flash. And when it finally does flash, it is hard coded to go to SD. Flash away. First ROM then a little later after you have registered and let it finish loading books, the manual nooter.

And when it finally does flash, it is hard coded to go to SD. Flash away. First ROM then a little later after you have registered and let it finish loading books, the manual nooter.

cool ....i dont know if its normal or not but it does seem to take forever to download the books, when i wsa using the android app it didnt seem to take as long....maybe they are just have server bugs or something?
i think after the books are done downloading then ill root it.

It took me a very long time to download the books and I have a fast connection. I think B&N just pushes them out slow for stock. Other stuff downloads fast, like once you are rooted and you download apps from play store.

hmm...now im having problems redownloading some books that started to download, but i turned the nook off when i went out to dinner and now i cant tell if the books that were downloading are actually continuing to download or not...would it be possible to download the books on the cm7.2 android app and then copy them over to the nook sd?

Brah....dang it...I messed up by accidently hitting the erase and deregister button.....it didn't seem to erase anything, but it did deregister it...would I have to remake the SD and then reflash the rom again? (Not that it is a big deal or time consuming to do lol)
