I have my nook rooted and all of that and for some reason I decided to wipe the thing clean in CWM recovery and now it won't boot to anything unless I boot from SD. I've tried booting into a rom from SD and installing CWM recovery again through rom manager and it says that is has flashed successfully but when I tell it to restart it goes back to the rom on the SD of course, so I tried taking the SD out and holding down the N and booting into recovery and I get nothing no loading screen no nothing, am I not getting CWM installed? Is there a zip I can flash from CWM on SD to flash it?
EDIT!!!!! If i had remembered to format the right things then I wouldn't have had an issue.
If you are having the problem described above remember to format BOOT, System, and Data. And then flash your rom.
See post#4 here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1205047
Thank you I don't know what I was thinking, if I had just formated the right things it would have worked just fine, I am a tard sometimes.

Try installing a different ROM, besides the two you installed, I had the same problem when I flashed HoneyVillain to Taboonay then to Lightspeed, I was stuck on a bootloop, couldn't flash back Taboonay, but was able to get HoneyVillain.
Still has the problem
I tried as you said, Installed honeyvillain 1.2 rom, and still has the same problem.
2 things which i realized is that,
1. there is sudden blink of loop screen that is different from boot loop that i have seen before.
2. there is error when i tried to do factory wipe
error moving data/data/com.estrong.android.pop/lib/libes_dropbox.so
hopefully anyone can help me
have you tried using acer recovery app to reinstal CWM, then use it to download just a basic 3.2 rom if possible and see how that goes
I am having the exact same problem error removing data/bluestacks, bootloops with little flashes in boot animation. tried every option in recovery and like 4 different back up restoration and the boot animation changes to that of the new restore but same thing.Help!!
thor's 13 then updated to 14 and this started
If you want, go to www.tegraowners.com . Thor's site. He made the recovery. If you go to his forums, Rom section, you will see he posted some steps to completely wipe internal memory. More than what the usual steps we take.
I suppose, there is some residual data left, which is why some errors are happening.
Also, any files named "update.zip", should be removed from SD.
Then you should be able to flash a new rom.
Here are the steps....
go to in recovery enter Backup and Restore and click on Toggle backup and restore of internal storage (/data/media)
should say enabled....
then go into Mounts and Storage and format /data
this will REALLY format data and you will loose all you have in the in the internal memory
then reinstall the rom and everything should work as expected....
im currently having this issue as of right now , idk wat the problem is
EDIT: and i cannot access CWM either
Hi, I just flashed CM7.2 MiRaGe - KANG build, from the recovery, and now i`m stuck at it.
I did a dalvik wipe before flash it.
Now, every time reboots into recovery. (CWM 3.2.0.1)
I did a nandroid restore, i flashed again, and wipe all and restore, and wipe all and flashed again... :/
Is there any solution, before I search the "back to stock and root again" posts?
Were you trying to install onto the SD card or the internal emmc memory? Give us some more details of which method you were using. I don't understand your reference to a Nandroid restore as part of this. That would normally be used to restore a previous back up.
If you were installing onto SD card then just removing the card should get you back to stock and then you can start again.
If you were installing to internal then it sounds like you have somehow managed to flash just Recovery and not the real ROM. In that case you should be able to just check you have a good ROM download, put MiRaGe back on the SD card, wipe, and reflash it from recovery.
Sorry, I'll start from the beginning
I was on CM 7.1 RC, on emmc (always on emmc) and i downloaded 7.2 mirage, copied it to SD card, reboot to recovery, wipe dalvik, and flashed (and gapps too).
Then rebooted, and rebooted into recovery.
Then i downloaded 7.2 mirage again and flash it, nothing.
Then i did a complete wipe, and flashed again 7.1 rc, reboot, nothing.
Then i restore a previous backup of my 7.1 RC, reboots to recovery.
I turned off for a while too, nothing, it boots into recovery.
That does sound strange as your first steps sound like they should have worked fine, although I probably would have done a data and cache wipe when doing a major ROM change.
What may be worth a try is to power up with N key held down so you get into the boot menu. You can then select the boot source (emmc) and the boot type Normal and then see if that boots into CM7.
If not then it sounds like your Normal boot image has got overwritten with a clockwork image but the flash should update that unless something is failing.
I think you have to try the flash again and watch for errors.
I flashed a couple of times again, and then i make a sd-bootable card with cwm recovery and a new rom and everything goes well now (already installed ics)
A detail: when booting into boot menu, n+power, the source always is set to SD, then I change to emmc, reboot, nothing. Go to that boot menu, and again is set to SD...
Thanks for your time
ooops... it happens again!, how can i fix this, how can i format the boot entirely and start from 0 ?

Two ways I think you can go.
1. Make a clockwork SD card from eyeballer image. Put MiRaGe ROM on. This should boot and allow you to install ROM onto emmc. If card is then removed and replaced with a clean single partition non-bootable SD then this should then boot into CM7 MiRaGe and allow you to install gapps and you can then also download ROM Manager app and use that to flash CWM onto emmc as well.
2. If you have a running SD CM7 system, get ROM Manager app from the market, then use Flash CWM function to get a decent 3.2.0.1 Nook Color CWM onto emmc. Then you should be able to power + N select emmc, recovery and be able to boot into recovery OK. From there you can then install a new ROM (e.g. MiRaGe) onto emmc.
If your internal partitioning is completely screwed up then you will need to check out
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=914690
and maybe use the repartition-boot-with-stock.zip to get you back to a stock boot set up.

A fundamental question.
After flashing and before rebooting, did you remove the uSD card off NC?
So today I wanted to update my ROM to the newest edition
While doing that I wanted to clean my SD card
So what I did was
Go into recovery
Factory recovery
Clean cache
Clean davick
Clean SD
Went to `reboot now` and device is stuck at Google logo
I can access bootloader and recovery
Usually I would have the rom on a external-SD which I forgot to realize there isnt one on the Nexus 7
So I tried to flash everything back to factory default using the methods here
http://forums.androidcentral.com/ne...1477-guide-nexus-7-factory-image-restore.html
and using the toolkit v4.0
I keep getting stuck at flashing the bootloader
saying `fail` flashing bootloader
I am really stuck
PLEASE HELP :crying:
edit: just lost ability to go into recovery mode
will stop doing anything till some advices..
edit2: turns out it works on another computer
NVM
SOLVED!
anyone?
dont mean to silly bump when you already solved your problem. but in case it happens again-
if you wiped the SD card by accident(i too on several occasions forget the nexus doesnt have external sd card) you can just access the sideload option in clockwork recovery
just sideload your rom via your computer, and problem solved
Hey Guys,
i have a big problem with my new S4 (i9505).
Ive rooted the Stockrom with Odin and then i flashed the Recovery, thats works well.
After this step ive tried to flash CM10.1.
The first boot works well, ive setup my phone, take a reboot and then i have a bootloop.
Ive go to the Recovery and i see that /data is destroyed.
Ive formating /data, flashed CM10.1 again, first boot works, second boot, /data is destroyed.
Then i flashed the prerooted XXUBF8-Firmware, flash the recovery, all works well. Then i flashed a alternative Kernel, my /data will be destroyed again. I have to format it, and to reflash the stock firmware.
My last try was to flash the minit-Framework. After this flash, i cant boot in my system, becaus my /data was destroyed.
I dont thought that my device is destroyed, because the Stock prerooted F8-Firmware (with custom recovery) works 2 weeks long without any problems (ive rebootet many times in the 2 weeks).
What i doing wrong?
And sorry for my bad english
Best regards
Just to follow you : what do you mean by "destroyed" ? Formatted partition ?
If so, try to do the following : flash stock ROM, then the recovery (I personally use Philz Touch based on CWM), do a factory wipe and then install the rom you want.
Hey,
thanks for answer.
When i have a bootloop and go to the recovery and want reflash a rom, the installer say: cannot mount /data, unknow partition. and then the setup breaks up.
After a format of the /data-Partition via Recovery, i can reflash the rom, and boot onetime.
Ive go "your way" and i have the some problem. After one Reboot my /data is destroyed.
Mmmm...in the Philz Touch recovery (based on ClockWorkMod but with a lot of improvements), there is an option called "wipe data for new rom install" or something similar... give it a try !
I will try it
Ive tried it with CWM / TWRP and have the same error.
But i will try it ) *flash*
Till later

Good luck ! As you can normally flash stock rom, you don't seem to have hardware issues so don't worry
omg Oo
I dont believ it -.-
All the trouble are only fail from CWM and TWRP??
Now with Philz it works perfectly.
Ive installed Bobcat, reboot, flashed minit, reboot, flash another Kernel, reboot .. and it works Oo
Great )
Thanks
Hi guys
(SM-N9005)
So yesterday I had liquid smooth rom installed for the past month or so (I have been trying a variety of roms for the last year or so) and I was getting some bugs occuring and decided to put a new rom on.
I booted into recovery, did the normal backup, factory restore, clear cache and dalvik, installed the rom and restarted my phone. It then went into a boot loop.
At this point I assumed it was no biggy, so I just went back to recovery and chose to restore with the backup... except it wouldnt. it couldnt recognise the file it had just made.
So I then coppied some previous backups to the external micro sd, stuck the micro sd card in, booted in recovery and tried to recover with them... couldnt recognise them.
I also noticed that when trying to reboot, it came up saying that I didn't have root access... even though I certainly have for the past year.
I tried flashing an updated version of superuser as that was the suggested method on some forum - didnt help the situation.
Now when my phone boot loops, it goes straight to android system recovery <3e> and nolonger have access to CWM
No idea what to do, and my uni work greatly depends on me having access to my phone :/
Any help would be greatly appreciated
my baseband version is LRX21V.N9005XXUGBOB6
i got some problem ... it freak me oute but i founnd how to back my stock firmware backk
