[Q] Simple process using clockwork to install new ROM?

I want to put CM7 on my nook color. I am VERY confused by everything that is out there because I did the same with my G Tab in a very straightforward manner. I didn't root my G Tab because as it was explained ClockWorkMod (CWM) did the rooting for me. I think that a lot of my confusion is due to the fact that people here are creating bootable SD cards, and I really don't want to do that at this point.
Basically, all I did with my G Tab was to install CWM and copy the ROM file over via USB and installed it with CWM. And that's it. I had CM7 up and running. I did no rooting beforehand - CWM took care of all of this. I did no flashing or writing of image files.
People here are mentioning ROM manager apps, and rooting and downloading apps from the market for this, and all sorts of things. No apps were involved when I installed CM7 in the G Tab. And I could use CWM to select ROMS if I had more than one.
So, basically CWM did all the work. Is there such a simple procedure for the nook color? Where can I get clockworkmod for the nook?
Thanks in advance.

Thanks for the link. But this still involves playing around with bootable SD cards, and if I do that, I might as well install CM7 to a bootable SD card.
Is there no way to avoid SD cards?

I looked into this when I installed CM7 on my NC. I think the answer, basically, is no. You can pick up the latest clockwork recovery from the official site here:
http://www.koushikdutta.com/2010/02/clockwork-recovery-image.html
You may be able to install it with ADB, or maybe you could install ROM manager on the rooted stock Android OS and go from there.
I just decided to go with the flow: make a bootable CM7 SD card, install CM7 on internal memory with ROM Manager, remove card, reboot, install CWM Recovery on internal memory with ROM Manager, reformat SD card using my phone.

[Q] Root Nook Color 1.2 with OS X Lion?

I just bought a new Nook Color that's got the latest 1.2.0 Firmware. I've already registered it and I'd like to install the latest version of CM7 on it.
I've got a newer iMac with OS X Lion installed. What's the best way for me to Root this and install CM7? What's the latest version of CM7?
I've got a 4 GB MicroSD card and reader for my Mac. I think that I've got all the correct tools, just not sure what would be the easiest method to do this. Thanks for any advice!

It really depends on what you want to do. Do you want to install on emmc? SD? Do you want to run the 7.1RC or the nightly releases?
I recommend reading through the two guides linked below and seeing exactly what you want to do with the device.
As far as using OSX, I believe you can use the *nix commands the same to set up the cards however you need.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1030227 - Emmc
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1000957 - SD

Thank you for the links. I was able to get CM7 installed using the second link. I'm going to play around with it now and see how well things work. Thanks!

If you're interested in going eMMC, it's pretty simple from OSX. I got it done in about 15 minutes, and most of that was waiting for the clockwork image to burn. What I did:
Download clockworkmod, repartition zip, reformat zip, cm7 zip, gapps, and oc kernel zip (though if you use the latest nightly you don't need to install the kernel seperately)
Extract the CWR .img file, insert blank sd card into Mac
Open terminal and run the command "diskutil list". Figure out which disk is the SD card. Your HD will probably be /dev/disk0 and your sdcard /dev/disk2, but double check to make sure. You don't want to reformat your HD by accident.
Now run the following commands- assuming your SD card is /dev/disk2, otherwise substitute the appropriate location:
diskutil unmount /dev/disk2
dd if=<drag CWR image here to auto fill in the location> of=/dev/disk2
Now wait. There's no progress bar but the SD card is being burned. Allow about 10 minutes, it's done when the next command prompt line shows up. When it's done, pop the card out then reinsert to mount it. Drag all your zip's onto the card, then eject and put it in your Nook.
Reboot the Nook and it'll boot into clockwork. If you're repartitioning, do those zips now then wipe data and reboot, because you'll probably need to re-register the Nook. Then go back to clockwork and wipe cache, dalvik, data, and flash CM7, gapps & kernel. Don't reboot yet!
Take the SD card out and put it back into your Mac. Open Disk Utility and reformat the card to MS-DOS (FAT32). Then take the card out and put it back into the Nook. Now you can reboot.
That's it! Super easy. At this point I would recommend opening ROM Manager and using it to flash clockwork to the internal memory, makes it easier to upgrade in the future.

[Q] Manual Nooter vs Auto Nooter

Ok so I did some research and got the question answered about the difference between the two.
My next question is:
To update to the 7.1 encore file on my nook color do I place it in the same place I had put the update for the froyo and delete the froyo update file? then when I boot into recovery then choose the update file 7.1? As far as the nightlies I have no clue how to do those. Are those just through the ROM manager app? or added to the sd card nightly?
I notice the file for the 7.1 says update so do I need something before that to ensure that everything runs smooth? Here is what is on my sd card as of current:
Old boot file
manual nooter 4.6.16
mlo
u-boot.bin
uImage
uRamdisk
update froyo1.2 file
Thank you for any help!

It isn't clear from your post if you are wanting to run CM 7.1 from a card or install it on the Nook's internal memory. All my advice assumes that you want to keep internal (emmc) running rooted BN and run CM 7.1 from a card.
The word "update" in the filename will cue verygreen's installer that the file is supposed to be installed. One thing though, are all those files visible on the card when you remove it from the Nook and read it on your computer? Normally the boot file, nooter, and update should disappear after they are applied. You can try removing them and adding the CM 7.1 file and booting into recovery. If that doesn't work you need to follow the instructions in this thread. Installing nightlies just involves dumping the new file onto the card and rebooting into recovery.
Again, this all assumes that you have the rooted BN OS internally and intend to install CM 7.1 on a flash card. If you're trying to dual boot, either from internal memory or from your card, I can't help you. You'll have to try the dual boot threads. Good luck!

Files on sd card
Yes these files are visible on my sd card after they are booted onto my nook. All the times that I have updated they have always been visible once I remove the card. Does that mean something? I also do want the files to run internally on my nook not from my card. So since I want to do that then do I take out the nooters or just not worry about them? And just load the update cm 7.1? Also the nooter I am running is the 4.5.18 because at the time the (a month and a half ago) the 4.6.16 since the market and google kept force closing so went back to the 4.5.18 or is there an update to the latest one that fixes this?
I soooo appreciate the help!

[Q] Please help!!! Noobie messed up NC (big time)

I have a Nook Color. Somehow (and I really can't recall how), I can no longer get to the B&N side of my Nook. Even with the micro-SD out, I still go directly into CYANOGEN. To make matters worse, every single app I try to get from the market will not download. Once I 'Accept & download', the app starts to download then I get an Error overlay screen: "name-of-software" could not be downloaded due to an error.
So I have a V--E--R--Y generic tablet that can't do much. Please help.
Thanx in advance...................................

How did you go about installing CM7? Did you install it to the internal storage?

Please help!!! Noobie messed up NC (big time)
That's part of the problem. I did not consciously install to internal memory, I wanted it to boot from the SD card.

That's what I did...
That's what I did once. I unwittingly installed it onto the internal memory. It also happened to be really buggy. I restored it to stock using Clockworkmod Recovery. Did you use the installer for the SD card?

On a 16GB microSD, I used Win32DiskImager to write 1gb_clockwork-3.2.0.1-eyeballer to a newly-formatted SD card.
I put the ZIP file for: gapps-gb-20110828-signedgapps-gb-20110828-signed, and gapps-gb-20110828-newtalk-signed.
I tried the home-power key combo. It asks me if I'm sure that I want to restore to the factory. I say "Yes" but when the Nook starts up, I'm still in cyanogen mod.
Should I (re-)format the MicroSD, write 1gb_clockwork-3.2.0.1-eyeballer (or another version) then move recovery-clockwork-3.2.0.1-encore?
Aside from not being able to get back to B&N-supplied software, I can't do anything with the NC as an Android tablet.

OP, do you intend to install CM7 into the internal memory?

All I'm trying to accomplish is to get back to the factory NC settings. Once I can get there, I'll decide.

How to hard reset and Factory Default Nook Color - http://goo.gl/pSFui
Power down your NC. Wait approximately 10 seconds or so-- just give it a bit of a break between shut down and factory reset.
Press and hold power button and your "N" home button almost simultaneously-- press Power first and then the N.
Hold these until your screen flashes the "Touch the future of reading" message; hold for a second or two afterward, then release. You will then get a prompt asking if you want to reset your nook to factory. Press the home button to continue. It will ask you to confirm. Press the home key again. Your nook will deregister, reset, and when it reboots, you will see "Kate" in her tutorial video, as if you'd never registered it in the first place.
(Obviously your account info will still be valid-- simply register with your email/pw combo instead of creating a new account.)
Hope this helps- if so please click thanks

I did this (more than once - grrrrrrrrrrrrr!). I never see the "touch the future....." message. Instead, I get a cyanogen mod 7 screen with the message "Booting into Recovery". Then I get a sickly yellow-greenish screen that asks (twice) if I want to teset. I confirm both times then it "wipes" the data. It then boots into a cyanogen mod 7 screen (and the skateboarding 'droid) and I go through the registration process.
Now, when I select a Google app, the downloading (Google Maps) seems to be taking forever, but at least I'm not getting the error I got before.
Also, I do not see the progress of the download that I'm used to seeing on my phone. All I see is "movement" under the "Downloading..." message. How long do I leave it before I abort the download?

Your micro sd card is removed right?

Eyeballer is a clockwork recovery bootable SD image which is used to install stuff (e.g. CM7) to internal memory.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1030227
VeryGreen (size agnostic thread) is the SD image which creates a full OS on the SD card itself leaving the internal memory alone.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1000957
You have used the Eyeballer method and have therefore done an internal install. You must also have installed a CM7 zip not just the gapps zip as they are just google apps and not an actual ROM.
You have 2 ways forward.
The simplest is if you want to end up with internal CM7 and are not interested in running the B & N ROM. Start again by creating the Eyeballer SD card using win32diskImager. Make sure you use a real USB SD adapter and not a card slot on a laptop. Put onto the card the CM7 ROM zip. I recommend the one from the KANG MiRaGe thread in the development forum. It is the most up to date and stable version available at the moment. Also put on one gapps zip (20110828). Now put the card in Nook, Power up and when in recovery then use the menus to format system, data and cache. Do NOT format boot. Then flash the CM7 ROM zip, then the gapps zip. Power down and prepare a clean SD card either by reformatting the eyeballer card with something like the HP USB card utility or a partition manager in the PC like miniTools. You could also use a different SD card if you want to keep the eyeballer one for future use. Put the card back in, power up and you should now be in a stable CM7 environment where you can set up wifi, register with the Google market and download apps.
The second way if you really want to return to stock on the internal and run CM7 of the SD card then use the eyeballer method but instead of flashing CM7 and gapps you now use a return to stock zip. Make sure you still format the partitions as before.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=914690
Once you have it back to stock and upgraded to whatever stock you want then follow the VeryGreen method from the link above. Once the SD card has put CM7 on itself, do not worry that there is only a 114MB space if you ever put the card back in the PC. That is normal; it is just the boot partition that the PC sees. The rest of the card can be seen if you USB connect the Nook to the PC.

Yes it is. Also, even though I'm not getting an error, no apps are loading.

You absolutely rock!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I'm back at the NC "baseline". I tried to go back to a 1.2 (which is what it came with) using "update-nc-stock-1.2-signed". Once I re-booted, it kept returning to the NOOK COLOR screen. Then I used a 1.0.1 from your last post. It came back fine with 2 exceptions. 1) I now have a message that I need to install a SD card. When I do, my (Windows Explorer) "Computer" screen only recognizes the SD card and not the Nook. These are piddly little issues, but if I can get them fixed, great! (Right now, I cannot upgrade the NC or move any books or load any apps.
Thanks again!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I had this same problem. Since I am a new member, and can't post links, I'm going to try to help.
Install Clockwork Recovery to an SD card. Yes, the same way you did when installing clockwork to the SD the first time.
There are some threads on other fourms (google is your friend) that have links to Update files that allow you to update while keeping clockwork recovery, and some that will remove clockwork recovery. If you can remove the SD card and boot into the Stock Nook OS, then don't worry about installing 1.0.0 or 1.0.1 like some of the forms say. Just place the .ZIP file of the hacked update (usually 1.3 or 1.4 I think) into the root folder of the SD card, then Install it on your NC just like installing CM7 onto the internal memory. Your nook should start working again. It restored mine to full functionality. I can now pay 3 Dollars for angry birds, but at least its not as terribly slow and laggy as it was with CM7.

I had the same issue last weekend, somehow my internal memory had become unrecognizable to anything, and the local Barnes and Noble store had a SD card that repartitioned the internal memory, and I was back in business. And as an added bonus I now have the 4 GB app/BN partition and the 1 GB mostly useless partition.

The instructions I see when googling around where I see that image mentioned are instructions for installing onto the Nook Color internal memory.
In the simplest case, making an n2a card is much less complicated than that ~ all you need is on the PC, write the size agnostic image, then drop in the CM7 build you want to use, then put the card in the Nook and it creates itself. There are upsides and downsides to different n2a methods, but that one seems to be the easiest ~ I've done it successfully several times, and I'm certainly nothing like an expert when it comes to these Android systems.
A recovery card image will make a bootable recovery card ... and while that might not have been what you needed to get what you want, its what you need to get the nook back to stock.
You might want to go to
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=22809801&postcount=148
... to get a version of the 1.4.1 upgrade that your recovery card can install. You'll probably have to wipe all sorts of partitions, which means you'll have to sign in with the B&N store again and you'll get to download you B&N apps again, but that's pretty straightforward.
This OP in this thread:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=10623716&postcount=1
... says that it will be necessary to format ("wipe") the /data and /system partitions, but it doesn't seem like you'll lose anything you want to keep. After all, you've either overwritten or completely tangled up your stock B&N info.
That post above has 1.4.1. There should be a signed 1.4.2 lying around somewhere, but if not, once its back to stock, you can update to 1.4.2 the normal way, download the B&N update file, drop it in the root of the Nook, make sure its at least 30% charged, and let it go to sleep, which will run the update file.

[Q] A Few Problems.

so i have cm 7.3.0-encore installed and
1) i cant get the android apps to install
2)cm mod( rom manager 4.2.0.2 clockwork mod 3.2.0.1) will not let me updgrade to premium
when i try to download rom it tells me i must upgrade rom manager to latest version and when i press ok i get another box that says "the application ROM Manager process com.koushikdutta.rommanager) has stopped unexpectedly please try again" and when i press ok i get sent bact to the home screen.
3)when i try to reboot into recovery,1) with the sd card in,i get booted to the main cyanogen mod home screen
4) and when i try to install gapps i go into the recovery,/install zip from sd card/choose zip from sd card/confirm install/when it says install complete,i exit out(reboot system now)it goes back to the main nook color screen so i have to power the nook off and back on so it can boot into cm. once back in cm,i dont have any market.
Oh and my software version is 1.2.0
PLEASE HELP!!

As much as I or we want to help you, we are completely lack of info.
Please provide some basic info about your system and what you are trying to do.
1. Where did you get cm7.3.0?
2. On your very last sentence, 1.2.0. What is that?
3. How have you run "which ROM"? from eMMC or uSD?
Those info is a good start to get more help.

i hvae to pull up the site i got the mod from (i believe it was the cyanogen forum,ill get back to you on that)
2 1.2.0 is the stock nook firmware.(i believe they are up to 1.4 now)
3 i have no idea what your talking about.(im hoping your asking wether im running from internal or sd card. if that is the case,im running from the sd card

OK... to help you there are several things we must know... since answers to each can influence the method we need to get things working as they should:
1. Which method did you use to setup your SD? i.e. verygreen's SASD, racks11479 or another method.
2. Which ROM are you having issues with? i.e. CM7 on SD, Stock 1.2 on eMMC
3. What "android apps" are you having issues with? i.e. google apps (gApps) or another specific "android" app... since they are ALL android apps.
If you used verygreen's SASD then you CANNOT use the stanard ROM manager and CWM to install gApps... you have probably screwed up your stock system and installed gApps there... not that it will work... but you are now no longer "stock"
If you can answer these questions and elaborate as to exactly what you have done, and are trying to accomplish, we can provide informed suggestions to you... otherwise we can flood this thread with a TON of solutions that will EVENTUALLY work... but waste lot of time and cause you much frustration along the way.

heres what i did step by step
1) got a sandisk 16gb micro sd card and fomatted it to fat 32.
2) used win image to burn generic sd card image to the sd card
3) once burned, i put cm7.3.0 encore zip file in the root of the sd card
4) put sd card in nook
5) let the install run
thats pretty much it it will not let me update the rom manger or install gapps
im trying to include pics of my rom manager and settings screens
so i have the cm mod running i just want to be able to install gapps and upgrade my rom manager

First off, you are running CM7.0.3, NOT 7.3 since it is not exist.
Secondly, I start following this post of yours. Pls note, whatever you did or have done described in your very first post were totally screw. Don't know who show you that.
Anyway,
Let's put it this way.
1. Your device is NC (NOOKColor)
2. Your NC is running stock ROM version 1.2.0 on eMMC.
3. You want to run CM7.0.3 on external uSD card.
4. You have problem getting Android apps.
Right? OK
1) got a sandisk 16gb micro sd card and fomatted it to fat 32. => good
2) used win image to burn generic sd card image to the sd card.
Ans: I strongly suggest you getting the Win32DiskImager since a lot of members reported having issue with WinImage.
3) once burned, i put cm7.3.0 encore zip file in the root of the sd card.
Again. It is CM7.0.3.
Assume after successfully done creating a bootable uSD using Win32Diskimager, put your cm7.0.3 (or suggesting using CM7.2-RC KANG) into the root folder, where you see those mlo, ramdisk, ... file. It should only 4 files there at this time.
4) put sd card in nook => correct
5) let the install run => it should
6 - after successfully install, it will automatically delete the cm7.0.3 zip file then shutdown.
7 - remove the uSD, put back into PC, download and copy GApps and put it the root folder, same place where you just put the ROM before.
Link: http://wiki.cyanogenmod.com/index.php?title=Latest_Version
Note: rolling all the way down and select one for CM7, not CM9
8 - remove the uSD off PC, put it back into the NC, power it up
9 - let it boot into CM7 first, do connect to your wifi at this point is a good choice, then reboot and choose reboot into recovery using the menu.
10 - after it boots back into recovery, it will install the GApps now and shutdown again.
11 - reboot and start using.
NOTE: the way I show you above is the easiest way. There are several ways that are so good and too convinience but it's far more advance for newbie. When you get used to the NC, you will find out more.

Did I just said whatever you did or have done, described on your very first post were screw up?
Why would you do that?
You follow to step 10, you are very close to get it up and running then you continue to do the wrong way. That's why you can't get your NC work.
On which instruction you got that shows you doing the "went down to "install zip from sd card,choose zip from sd card" when you are running CM7 from uSD?
My suggestion, start over again, go slow.
Since using the uSD, why not using the stable CM7.1 or CM7.2 KANG? Get rid of the 7.0.3
