Flash rom from stock again.. ¿ - Nook Color Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I once had my nook with one of the roms on it I bought a Oxonian tap and gave the n.c. to her since she's been wanting one. So now she wants a tablet experience with her nook now that she sees me playing with my a500 so I know its rooted cuz I tried to do a update on it and it keeps going to cwm so my question is that can I just throw a rom on SD and flash to emmc?

[Q] HTC system update on phone with clockworkmod

Hi there,
I read a bit about jail breaking the HTC Desire HD and I'm quite impressed by the advantages I would get. However, before doing that I was wondering to what extend I can still use the System Updates by HTC. Would I still be able to install them? Or would I need to install a new clockworkmod version which includes the HTC System Updates? I'm a bit lost ...
Thanks,
Rlaf
Answer is if u root u cant get over the air updates anymore but u cood download and install custom roms which are better in my opinion. I rooted using a great tutorial i can try find it if u want

Sweet. The link would be great. Could you send me links about custom ROMs as well? Thanks!
I'm in the same boat as you, still considering rooting and using a different rom. From what I saw so far cyanogenmod seems the coolest and has a ton of users so community support should be plentiful. Still trying to read up on the custom radios.

[Q] In need of guidance!!

I recently bought a epic 4g and I got a guy to flash it to cricket for me.
I have had this phone for a while now and I feel like I'm in need of downloading roms onto it.
Before I do so I'm sure someone has already gone through this so ijust want to be on the safe sie that after I get a custom rom eveything will work. Now I know I can root but I need to know more.
1. If I clockwork mod it and what not will my service till work?
2. After I custom rom it will I have to put my service again?
Someone please respond and explain to me what I can and can not do or wht to have caution with. Please make sure though.
Everything will work as long as the ROM you flash supports it. Just read the ROM's bug list to be sure what you need is working..
So flashing it will work no problem, if I want ics anything bad there?
Sent from my SPH-D700 using XDA
There shouldn't be..the ROM doesn't interfere with the hardware that connects to your service provider that I am aware of..if it's for the Epic4G, it's for the Epic4G...lol just make a nandroid backup with CWM when you get it installed.
If your wanting ics.. cm9.. then there is an alternative carrier fix that needs to be applied for mms to work but yes it should work just fine on a new ROM.
Sent from my SPH-D700 using xda premium
Not necessarily, afaik AOSP roms like ics do not play nicely with data from other carriers. You might want to change the title of your post to "will cricket wireless work on ics"

I used the CM7 ROM from this thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1495754 to flash my brother's epic... for the most part it works, but he occasionally has some issues getting/sending MMS and (claims) he has to go into airplane mode to get internet to work once in a while.
I can confirm that MMS send/receive does work, it just doesn't seem to be 100% reliable. It could be the fact that he's dropped his phone numerous times, enough to crack the screen.
I'm thinking of just getting cm7, but I'm having issues rooting with odin. My computer doest wanna detect my phone.

Did you install the correct drivers? Do you have a better cable than stock. Have you tried other usb ports. =]

That does not get rid of root access and that is something which can be detected by experts (if you're selling your phone to a shop). But if it is just a local buyer then factory reset would pretty much erase all the apps and your sms + phone list...

[Q] paranoid note user wanting to install paranoid android

if you read my last threads you will know i mashed my other note to pieces....
on my desire i would flash roms 3 each week without messing the phone up, so after messing up my note through formatting through cwm while on ics i am a little/lot scared about doing it again..
so i want a little help if you guys would be so kind :laugh:
i dont have the new phone with me right now, but this time i am going to learn how NOT to brake the phone before i start playing with it.
so could you please walk me through this, explain to me as you would explain to a child LOL
so as i understand it, i need to keep to gingerbread then root it, go into recovery and flash the rom from there? do i use the normal phone recovery to do this or do i have to install cwm?
i am a little worried about using cwm again tbh, or can i use mobile odin?
i want to know the easiest way, the most fool proof....
damn i was never this worried with my desire.
your probably thinking "if you are so scared then why bother" right? its just the phone is so damn laggy, even compared to my desire which was built by cave men
cheers for the help guys, asuming i get some ofcourse :fingers-crossed:
Start from a gingerbread rom, then fully root it and install clockworkmod, next boot into recovery(volume up+power+home button together). First flash paranoid android rom then flash gapps, lastly wipe data, cache partition and dalvik cache. Reboot and enjoy

Yes, you can flash from one of the supposedly known safe ics kernels to speed the process up BUT if you want to be 100% safe in flashing to any cm9, start with a gingerbread rom.
Sent from my GT-N7000 using XDA Premium HD app
Cool thanks, I will just do that when the time comes then, for some reason this phone is no where near as laggy as the last one, and I have all my apps I had on the other device plus more....

So is it still okay to root through cwm and then use mobile odin? Are there any decent roms out yet that have decent s pen usage?
Sent from my GT-N7000 using Tapatalk 2
I also just received my note from samsung after bricking it with CWM. I am so afraid I might brick it again trying to install paranoid android since I have to wait nearly a month to have my phone back in case anything happen.
Just one question, as long as I'm on paranoid android, can I just format or factory reset my phone through settings or recovery or cwm safely? Thanks a lot.

If you want to install paranoid, its cm based which means no touchwizz apps will work on it as they need the touchwizz framework. That being said, s pen still works fine and there are plenty of alternatives to the s apps (papyrus, memo etc). Also I've read that one of the devs is working on getting the s apps onto cm9 somehow, but not sure who or how its going. Also the cm9 kernel included for the rom is safe from the superbrick bug as its has the cap wlerase command disabled.
PA has a slightly different installation to other roms. I would highly recommend first installing stock rootable gb, root it and install cwm. Once that's in place perform factory reset.
Then download paranoid and g apps and copy them to external SD card.
Then FROM CWM recovery, you flash pa first by "installing zip from SD card", then do the same for g apps straight afterwards.
If you have any fc's or issues, enter back into cwm recovery and wipe cache and dalvik.
Boom, ready to go for full on paranoia
Its a truly great rom, very customisable and as ics should be.

Thanks ST, so am I right in thinking if I go the cm route then I don't have to flash the kernel first. It will do it for me? So all I need to do is root it and get a safe kernel?
Is there a free mobile Odin app, I looked on the market but there is only the pro version...

The safe kernel is included in the pa rom, cm9 kernel. So long as you flash it from cwm in gb you're fine it installs it automatically.
Think mobile Odin is only a paid for app... well worth it though. Check the forum, chainfire usually releases free versions to xda community.

If you asked me. I like the stock firmware not cm9 paranoid. Because you will lose your S-Memo, S-Note and S-Planner and also your myfiles and also the MHL. All of this features are important for me. Paranoid is cool firmware but you will loose this apps...

Personally, I prefer Android.
Specifically for the market, apps, ect. Go with the one you feel more comfortable using.
