I rooted my phone yesterday with the help of the folks in the chat room.
Everything went smoothly. I had Clockwork 3.0.0.5. I tried to install Royal Liquid rom but it got stuck on the splash screen. Then I read about the problem with 3.0.0.5.
I have since download and attempted to install CM7, evil-4G-HD, Royal Glacier, and a few other roms but they all get stuck on splash screen. Before I install each rom, I wiped data, cache, and delvik, and formatted boot, system, and SD card.
I can get into recovery fine, but I keep getting stuck at splash screen. I have left the thing boot for 10 minutes and nothing.
Is it possible to install Clockwork 3.0.0.6 or higher (3.0.1.4) through Clockwork Recovery since I can't get into a rom and into Rom Manager.
Any suggestions?
Ok. Finally solved it at 4:41 am!!! Downloaded Royal Ginger, went through the motions, and finally got pasted the boot screen. Downloaded Rom Manager and updated Clockwork to 3.0.0.6. And now I'm in Royal Liquid!!! Can't wait to go flash crazy.
Download 3.0.0.6 from dev section and install via recovery. Then wipe data/cache, boot, system, and davlik and try again.

I am trying to restore my nook color to stock and am running into an issue with it hanging at the N logo on reboot.
I've gone through several different recovery docs which basically point down the same path of
boot from a CWM recovery SD
Format /system and /data
apply the stock ROM
I've also formatted /boot and applied several different stock boot partition images (including the repartition-boot-with-stock fix). I'm _pretty_ sure the boot partition is OK because I get past the "Touch the Future of Reading", the inital N logo, and gets to the N logo with the "Contains Reader Mobile technology by Adobe Systems".
Unfortunately it simply hangs there forever (I've left it overnight).
I have also tried the
I'm sure it's something simple I've missed here, but at this point I'm stumped.
Any thoughts on what I can do to recover my nook would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks!
I was having the same problem. The "8 failed boots" method here got me back to stock. I'm feeling MUCH better now!!

Thanks so much for the suggestion, unfortunately my Nook is now hung @ the "Touch the future of Reading" screen. Time to try and re-flash the 1.0.1 recovery images.
As an update I was able to get back to working stock 1.0.1. From a recovery SD I formatted /boot, /system, and /data. Then applied the "repartition-boot-with-stock.zip" and then "nook-complete-restore-1.0.1.zip". reboot and I'm all good.
Thanks!
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?
Description:
in the video I'm showing you what I think is a boot loop or stuck animation where I've gone from a custom rom to stock 1.4.1 using a SD bootable ClockworkMod.
I flashed stock ROM after wiping system, data, and cache.
I was on emmc installed CM10 with u Boot and ClockworkMod recovery.
Will post more as I think of other things you might need to know in the comments below
