Question.
I decided to try Deeper Blue's HC. I was running CM7. I loaded the image on my SD card and used ROM Manager to load HC off the SD card.
Everything worked fine but I overlooked the fact that flash and YouTube don't work, so I decided to bail on HC and recover my backup I made of CM7.
The problem is, I can't get the Nook to boot into recovery. I also can't get the recovery to work in ROM Manager when I select the backup file I made today. I've tried removing the SD card. I've tried it with the card in. I've tried powering the Nook down and restarting with the volume button held down.
Can anyone tell me how to recover my CM7? Or at worst, load a new CM7 flash?
Nevermind. I just noticed the handy dandy utility INCLUDED in HC just for this reason.
Restore is running now.
Thanks!

... you installed a G1 cyanogen rom? or do you mean you installed darch's 2.0.1 cyanogen?
try downloading a rom(fresh 1.1, gumbo 1.5c) and put it to your sd card. enter recovery mode(home+power). wipe/format your phone and flash the rom.
my bad mistype i ment
2.0.1 cyanogen
I am relatively new to this but I have tried a few versions of phiremod.
I actually had the dual boot Phiremod with HC running on my Nook for a week and loved it and want to go back.
My current situation:
I did an emmc bootable HC and now I am stuck. I have no stock boot, I have Clockworkmod 3.0.2.8 on an 8gb SD.
I tried to flash to the dual boot Phiremod and it didnt work. I am not sure what i need to do to prep for it.
Do I go back to stock first? If so, how?
When I tried to flash it, I just keep booting into CWM.
What I am looking for is someone who can explain to me how to get back to the basics and then get a version of HC on my nook. I loved 3.1 that I had even though it was just a little glitchy here and there.
Does it boot up to HC without the sd card inserted? If you are trying to run Phiremod off the sd card I would just redo the sd card. If you are trying to get back to stock use this thread. It will put you on 1.0.1 then once you boot up you can do a system update and it will take you to 1.2.

Hi all,
After using stock for a bit, I realized I will never, ever need it. I've currently got the SD dual-boot going from ikingblack's instructions and have a CWM backup from my stock install, so if I need to go back I can.
How could I remove dual-boot and go CM7 only?
PS Also, I ALWAYS boot into CWM with the SD card inserted. Not holding any buttons. Did I miss a step?
I'm wondering same thing. Been running dual boot with cm7 on 16 gig card for a week and found I like cm7 better then stock. Will it work if I make a CWM nandroid, flash just clockwork to emmc with a spare 8 gig card then install my 16 gig card with cm7 on it and boot into recovery and restore backup? Seems the easiest way without setting everything up again but not sure if it will work. Also never flashed recovery yet from rom manager, should I do that first? Appreciate any help.
Two options pop up in my head.
1. According to many members, Titanium Backup will save your work (apps and settings) or
2. Re-fresh installing CM7 on the uSD card.
Hi. Ok so I rooted my NC to CM7 sometime last year, and now with all the blah about markets not working and having to do more about it, not to mention the PIA it is to get books on, I decided to put it back to stock. Which apparently was a big mistake.
First I mounted an older version of clockwork to the SD card, then when I figured that out (having format data error) I did the newer 3.2.x.x one. So that went good, I went through the steps and reformated data and system, and then went to upload the zip from the choose zip part, but it says there are no files. So I backed out, took out the SD and put it in my computer(Macbook pro) to try to put it in again but it wont show up at all? I tried looking in Disk Utility too and its not there. Any ideas where my card is? What do I do next?? I have nook complete restore 1.0.1, 1.0.0 and nook color update 1.4.1 on my desktop, I thought I had 1.0.1 on the SD card.
I've been reading and googling all over, I can't find what could've made my SD card disappear?
Thanks, I know you must get these all the time and I really appreciate your help-
Ok I didn't do anything, but it just started up to the little silver N and is now sitting there? Is that a good thing?
Don't panic. The NC is very hard to permanently brick. From what you've described, it sounds like your SD card may have gone bad or been corrupted. I'd just try again.
The 'n' logo is a good thing, but if it hangs there, be sure you've followed all the steps carefully. That's typically a sign that /data wasn't formatted, though from your description, you got that step.
Sorry I can't offer up anything more specific. Do be aware that you can restore back to 1.3 if you don't want to go back to 1.01
It happened to me and what I did is plugged my sdcard into my android phone and format it and start over again.
I did that couple time during first attempt to install CM7 on my nook
Hope this helps ! Good luck!
Try plug it into different computer(s) along with using usb-adapter.
The Eausus Partition program works well to wipe/format cards too...
I have a Nook Color that I've used for some time with CyanogenMod 10.2 with no problems. Last night I was looking at the fixes for Netflix since CM currently has a problem with it, and followed the instructions on XDS for the xposed installer (loading Liquid64's NetflixHackPersist.zip). Things appeared to go fine, and it booted into CM again and I ran the app as instructed. Everything seemed fine up to that point.
But on rebooting, the Nook will not go past the Cyanboot screen. Whether I let it boot by itself, or go to the boot menu and select any of the emmc or SD card options, it just sits there saying it's 'loading xxx' whatever option I've selected and never gets past it. I cannot find a way to force it to boot to the SD card to try anything that way.
I've tried 2 SD cards, reformatted and reburned an 8gb clockwork 3.0.2.8 image to make them bootable...so I don't think it's a card problem.
I'd appreciate some help if anyone knows a way around this. I've had experience with rooting and loading from the SD card, but if it always gets to Cyanoboot and I can't get it to even boot the SD card, I'm stuck. (The 8-reboots trick doesn't seem to work..I've likely reworked too much to still do that.)
Thanks,
JT

Hallelujah! I followed your link and (though what I saw suggested trying CWM 5.5.04 for CM 10.2) it WORKED!! It booted to the SD card from Cyanboot, and I had a CM 10.2.1 zip that I was able to install and I'm back in business.
Out of curiosity, is Cyanoboot something unremovable, meaning I can never simply boot straight to an SD card as in the past? It did let me get to the recovery on this SD card, so I guess Cyanoboot was actually working and my problem was something else...but if I simply did a factory reset and wiped everything, would that have removed Cyanoboot as well?
If anyone has suggestions, I'm trying to decide if I'll keep this thing or sell it, so I'm curious what the most fully functional ROM (CM or ?) is considered to be these days, if I didn't put it back to stock?
I've loved this Nook, and only got into the earlier predicament because I thought, if I sold it, a buyer might want to use Netflix...so I was hoping to have it working with a ROM that would please the average Joe user who might hit up Youtube, Netflix, etc.
Thanks for the help!

If you installed CWM 6.0.4.7 to emmc and want to return to stock go to Leapinlar's tips item A12 on how to return to stock recovery. Or item A15 to flash BN stock recovery using CWM.
