I flashed CM7 RC1 this morning coming from an older version of phiremod. I formatted the system, data, and cache as usual. When I turn the nook on it gives me the Cyanogen splash screen with the loading text for a few seconds then goes to a black screen and stays there. If I try and boot into recovery it shows the Cyanogen splash screen with the booting recovery text and then also goes to the black screen and hangs.
I'm going to burn an sd card and try again with that when I get back from class, but does anyone have any ideas as to why this is happening?
Sounds like an incorrect kernel. Did you flash a kernel after RC1? You obviously have the right uboot so that isn't the issue.
Assuming you didn't flash an incorrect kernel then you probably just have a bad flash. I would re-download RC1 and try again.

I originally was trying to flash CM7 using a SD bootable version of CWM 3.0.2.8 and it wouldn't boot at all. So, after a bit of searching, came to find out my refurbished Nook was one of the "new" ones with the partition change and was told that custom ROMs won't work on it yet.
I then got a CWM flashable 1.2 stock ROM and flashed it back to stock. Now, it won't boot past the N screen. I tried holding the power and N button to get into recovery to restore it, but that process freezes up half way through.
Next, I tried the 8 times boot interrupt (which is only 4 on my Nook btw) and it too freezes up part way through while "Clearing Data".
Any ideas on where to go next?
Nevermind, problem fixed. Whew, I went from having a Nook that wouldn't even power on this morning to a fully restored one.
Turns out I needed to have the power adapter plugged in while doing the 8 boot interrupt process.
Hi everyone, took a friends Nook Color after showing him mine with MIUI on it (1.9.16). Told him I could get his 1.2 or 1.3 refurbished Nook to MIUI or CM7, and after using a SD Card CWR to install either (with wiping all data/cache/system/etc.), I can get the install to perform fine in CWR. However, upon booting, I get loops at any and all splash screens, MIUI stays on orbiting planet, CM7 stays on Nook Color rainbow screen, none can actually get into the OS. I've tried to replace partition with boot zip around here, to no avail. Anyone have any ideas what the problem is?
Also, when trying to restore 1.2 or 1.3, the keyboard will flash onscreen when trying to type info to register, then immediately hide; I'm unable to input text before it disappears again! Thanks for your help.
Nobody has any ideas about how to COMPLETELY format, and not get the boot loop? I can install any ROM fine, I just get stuck on the boot logo. Also, I tried the boot partition zip. Thanks in advance.
Turns out, because the keyboard was wonky, I couldn't ever get past the registering in 1.2 or 1.3, which for some reason, kept me in a boot loop after installing a different ROM. I guess, you either need to register, or bypass the Oout of Box Experience, in order to keep out of this boot loop. All fixed now!
I have installed Cyanogenmod on my MT4G, it was working fine for few months, but now it is developing a strange problem with the display. The symptoms include:
The screen is pixelated when displaying text, and colors are distored (at first a reboot took care of the problem, but now the problem no longer goes away)
No display of the myTouch 4G splash screen
When boot into recovery, I can see the recovery menu VERY briefly, then the screen goes dark, completely black
When boot into bootloader, the screen is completely blank. Can not see anything.
I was thinking the problem may caused by Cyanogenmod, however, because now the screen is completely blank, I can not even restore to stock using the Power+Volume down method. I do know that it still entered bootloader mood since I can see the device using adb/fastboot command.
Any pointer as to what may have caused this or help getting me restored back to stock would be greatly appreciated.
Note, I have wipe the phone, I have tried Cyanogenmod 7.1, nightly build 252 and 7.2RC1, and the problem is still there. I was not able to flash a stock rom using rom manager.
My tablet screen froze when I was using it. I pushed the reset button after the screen was unresponsive for a few minutes and it wouldn't go past the boot screen. I went into recovery but was unable to mount anything. Doing a little research I went and wiped the data but it still wont boot. I used APXflash tool, entered by SBK, and now the tablet turns on but no boot screen, no recovery, nothing.
Does this sound like the memory died, or am I making it worse by trying to fix it. I was running cwm recovery and omni rom light when this all went down.
Any help?
ok so first off this phone was brand new when i got it 6 months ago. no matter what rom i flash or kernel combo, my phone always ends up 'freezing' up on me. after sitting there staring at the unresponsive phone i will either yank the battery or keycombo reboot. upon trying to boot again it doesnt get past the red and blue writing about enforcing whatever just sits there. so i boot to twrp but it hangs at splash screen if i wait a long time it will eventually go but im talking like 30 mins. weird right? when i do get back in i can restore a backup or wipe, clearing cache and dalvik does nothing it just sits at boot logo. and flashing kernels does nothing. what could be doing this?
