[Q] MN won't take on NC 1.3 - Nook Color Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Searched but couldn't find anything to resolve..hence the question...
- Booted NC off of CWM 3.2.0.1
- Installed MN 4.5.18 successfully
- Remove SD and reboot
- Ran Zeam Launcher
- Powered off, insert SD
- Installed MN 4.6.16 successfully
- Ran Advanced/Fix Permissions
- Remove SD and reboot
Don't see the Market..just looks like stock NC... Am I using the wrong CWM version? Or am I missing something? I read and followed the [NC][1.2][1.3] ManualNooter 4.6.16 thread instructions...
Any help greatly appreciated.

You got further than me. I ran 4.15 successfully bit an getting stuck in boot loop when I tried installing 4.16.
Any suggestions?

If your nook came stock with 1.3, you might never be able to install 4.16 without it boot looping. Some (though I think not all) have that problem. You can either stick with 4.15, or upgrade to 1.4.1 and use one of the newer MN versions (or you can stay at 1.3 and try one of the newer MN versions, though there are no guarantees with that).

[Q] manualnooter 4.5.6 Market problem

Let me preface my question with some info:
I have tried the limited viability market fix detailed in the ManualNooter 4.5.6 no less than 10 times.
I have gone back to stock, side loaded 1.2, and did a complete redo of manualnooter (I followed every single word in every single step to a "T", BOTH times.
I saved, then uninstalled, and reloaded the market from Titanium.
I am not a complete noob (and by that I mean, I am not a natural at adb commands).
I have rooted an Eris, I have used autonooter, I have rooted my Incredible.
I have been reading through posts on XDA and other sites for 3 days.
I absolutely positively cannot fix the limited visibility problem with the Market.
Can anyone give me any guidance?
Is anyone else having this problem but me?
Thanks for your time!

I did the same and had no problems. Try the new MN 4.5.18 and post your results. Did you add any apps, kernels? What was installed prior to going back to stock BN and which version of BN? Did you overclock or dual boot?

Before doing Manualnooter, I wiped the device as per the directions (8 failed reboots, and factory reset, in that order...again, as per directions)
I did not add any apps (aside what was loaded natively via the manualnooter process before trying the market either time.
I have never overclocked, or dual booted my Nook.
From stock 1.1, I used autonooter to root. I never installed any ROMs. From that state, I unrooted, and rerooted with Manualnooter following ALL of the directions (including making the bootable sd with CM), and again, never loaded any custom ROMs.
Before I rooted, I had a pretty good number of apps loaded both from the market, and side loading. I never messed with the Nook too much (no tasker, no tether, never tried to get bluetooth working, and nothing where I had to alter any lines of code.
I'm at work right now, so unable to try 4.5.18 at the moment. When I have a chunk of time, I will try the entire process over again with 4.5.18 from complete scratch (including redoing the bootable sd, wiping with 8 interrupted boots, and factory reset, etc)
I will report back.
Thanks!

Did you remember to register the device following the wipe? Seems the device needs to be registered prior to rooting.
I started with a stock Nook and rooted it, then 1.2 came out.
My sequence was to flash with 1.2 with CWM peinstalled. Then I rebooted and registered the device on gmail and Youtube.
Next I downloaded manual nooter and put in root of sd.
Rebooted to recovery and flashed manual nooter. booted and tested, installed Nook apps, then rebooted into recovery.
From recovery I flashed the kernal fix to allow moving apps to SD. Tested Works!
The ONLY remaining issue I have is that some large apps are not found in market.
Market was fixed!, had to clear market cache, then kill it, then cleared data for the google frame work part and killed it. Rebooted and now see many more apps, especially the larger ones. This info is near end of first post; http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1054027

framitz,
I don't think I did. I don't remember doing that step at that point. And, I looked back over the directions I followed, and I didn't see that as a step. And I followed those directions like I needed to diffuse a bomb.
I'll follow your instructions when I get home, and let you know!
Thanks!!

Instead of unrooting, etc.. just install BN1.2 from http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1050520. I suggest using update-nc-stock-1.2-signed.zip.
From there MN should work fine...
My first MN followed the same process as yours (restore to stock, side load BN1.2). Subsequently, I used the nemith method.

I used update-nc-stock-1.2-keepcwm-signed.zip, which has the advantage of not needing to set up a bootable SD because CWM is already available.
To flash a new rom I just boot into recover, locate and install the zip file.

I did exactly this, then used MN 4.5.6 and had the same problem with "download unsuccessful" with the market. I was able to fix the limited market problem easily, but couldn't find a solution to the Market download problem.
Tired of beating my head against the wall at this point. Reverting back to my original ROM.

boot loops upon reboot, NC 1.2, MN root

I have a NC 1.2. I am able to root using a CWM 3.0.2.8 Msd card with Manual Nooter no problem. The problem occurs when I shut it off and then reboot. It gets to the part where the words "Nook Color" start scrolling across the screen. "Nook Color" completes one time successfully and when it starts scrolling again, it stops halfway through the first "o" in "Color", and just repeats indefinitely. The only thing I could do is completely reset, eight failed boots. At first I thought it may be an older version of CWM on my Msd card so I made a new one with v. 3.0.2.8 and rooted successfully, but first time I shut it off and rebooted, it happened again. I am thinking only thing to do is never turn it off. Any ideas would be greatly appreciated.

What version MN are you using? You’re not wiping anything when you flash MN, right?

Are you saying that after you flash MN, you remove the SD card, it will fully boot up into the OS, then when you turn off the device and try to turn it back on, it will then not boot up? Or, are you saying that after you flash MN, you remove the SD card, and then the device fails to boot?
It sounds to me like you are wiping the system before you flash MN, but until I get the answers to the above questions, I can’t say for sure. MN is a add on pack for the stock OS, not a full rom, so you don’t wipe before you flash.
I have latest version of MN. I do not wipe anything. I boot into CWM and install MN with a msd card. Upon successful installation of MN, I remove msd card and reboot successfully that one time into a rooted NC. I can use Gmail app, download and install from both Android and Amazon markets. However, if I power down completely and reboot, it loops as explained in my OP.

Are you updating Adobe Flash? You can't directly update Adobe Flash from the Nook Color. The most common issues that will cause a boot loop on a NC after having a fully working device, are installing the wrong kernel, and updating Adobe Flash from the Market. If you updated Adobe Flash, download the attached file, and flash with CWM. The file should delete the old flash player, and install the updated one. This should give you a working device again. If it does work for you, please report back here so others will know what the fix it.

I have updated Flash Player from the Market after rooting. If I remember correctly, I've powered down after rooting and installing numerous apps, including Flash, and rebooted . Maybe that's the culprit. I have not installed a different kernel. I'll go ahead and install the attached zip, with much thanks, but I don't know if I want to power off and reboot, for fear of dreaded boot loop.
Ok, I installed Flash Fix and rebooted, and the same boot loop is occurring. Looks like time to reset and reroot, and for now, never turn it off.

I just realized that I missed a step in the install script for that file, that is why it did not work for you. Yes, adobe flash is your problem. To update Adobe Flash on the nook color, you have to uninstall the old version, and then install the new adobe flash.
For all future references, I have attached the working Adobe Flash fix file. It includes flash version 10.3.186.3, that was released today. It has been tested to work, and you can allow auto-update in the market without future problems.
Ok, thanks, I will reluctantly give this a try when I get home from work.
Edit: Ok, now. I'm trying to uninstall Flash Player and having difficulties. It doesn't show up in the app drawer, so I go to Market to see if there is an uninstall option, but there is only an update option, so I updated, and then uninstalled to see if that would work, but it still showed up in "my apps", in market. I opened up app drawer and selected manage apps and found it, but selecting the uninstall button does nothing. I then tried installing Titanium Backup and after installing, Titanium Backup won't open and doesn't even show up in my app drawer. So, I'm a little stymied now. Unsure what to do next

Titanium Backup is going to be your best bet to do the uninstall process. When you selected update Flash from the market, then went and uninstalled it, you were only uninstalling the update. If TB installed, then it should show up in the app drawer of Zeam launcher. You can go into the market, and select to open it from there. Sometime it will not open on first attempt, because it is trying to ask you to give it root permission. If you still have trouble with it not opening, then uninstall it, and try to install it again. You can also open up the “Superuser” app to make sure that it has not been denied root permission.
TB definitely didn't appear in Zeam app drawer. I'm charging now and give it another shot in a bit.
Edit: Success. I got TB installed. I made a stupid error. I only installed the paid app, not the free also. I got Flash uninstalled and installed your Flash Fix.zip with numerous reboots with no boot loops.

Total noob question. This is my first time rooting. I got the root to work fine but updated Flash before finding out about the loop. I'm not sure what I'm supposed to do to fix this problem. OP in this thread said he reinstalled MN 4.6.16 via bootable SD with CWM and could get his nook to boot up. I tried that and rebooted but I'm still getting stuck in the loop.
Do I need to wipe my nook before reapplying MN?

Use the zip file in post #7 (in this thread). Drop it onto the same SD card you used to load MN 4.6.16. Put the SD card in and it'll boot to CWM....then flash that zip file the same way you flashed MN. Then, power off the NC, remove the CWM SD card and put in your regular SD and turn the NC back on. That should be it...no more boot loop.
I've got the same issue as the thread started and I downloaded the zip from post 7 and flashed it just like I flashed MN, but it's still boot looping. It gets a bit farther into the "Nook Color" logo but keeps repeating.

Thanks GMPOWER
I figure I will explain my problem in more detail. I am working with my girlfriend's Nook trying to get it rooted. The first time I did she had 1.2 stock and I rooted it successfully. She updated flash not knowing that it would cause a boot loop. I had no idea how to fix it so she set it back to factory settings and procedded to update to 1.3 to see if that would solve the boot loop. I rooted it again and it started boot looping again. I found this thread and the flash fix. I flashed it onto the Nook and it fixed the loop problem.
Well she found out that the marketplace has limited visibility with 1.3 and wanted to go back to 1.2 to have her full visibility back. So she factory reset it again, I rooted it again and it started boot looping again. This time though the fix from post 7 isn't helping. I flash it and then reboot and it loads the "Nook Color" logo once fully and then stops and starts it over again and gets stuck at "Nook Col".
Is there anyone who might be able to help me with what the problem is, or am I gonna have to reset it back to stock, use Titanium Backup to remove flash and then use the zip from post 7? I know that it's not a root problem because I successfully rooted my mom's Nook before my girlfriends and her's is working fine.
Followed your instructions and my problem solved, many thanks!

[Q] Nook Color 1.3 Boot Loop, nook shop error

before I start I really did search for days before... (>_<)
I have a Nook Color Stock 1.3
I follow the Directions from [NC][1.2][1.3] ManualNooter 4.6.16
I get the boot Loop when I install MN 4.6.16 and 4.6.16a
When I install 4.5.18, whenever I try to search the nook store I get an Error "A Problem Occurred"....
So I at the moment I have a (nook color 1.3/ MN 4.5.18) that wont let me search the nook store Dose anyone know how to fix the store or know how I can get the 4.6.16/a to not get a boot loop on me?
If you followed this guide, you should have installed 4.5.18 then 4.6.16 if you're on 1.3 (see "1.3 Must do these instructions first with 4.5.18 then with 4.6.16." mid-way down on post 1 in that thread). From your description, it sounds like you've done only one or the other.

First while I was in CWM I install 4.5.18 then 4.6.16 back to back but I got Boot loop
then I install 4.5.18 did the whole sign in and saw the market and it was all good then went back to CWM and instll 4.6.16 and got the good old boot loop again.
so now Im just on 4.5.18...(>_<)
what about 5.?.?? or something or whatever I haven't seen a post on what that dose...
also i was reading that if you want 4.6.16 to work you need to wipe everything and start with 1.2 but since my nook came fresh with 1.3 I cant do that right?

I'm in the same boat, system is stuck in boot loop after applying the 4.6.16 MN.
I'm somewhat confused about the sequence we are supposed to follow.
#1 flash 4.5.18
#2 reboot and activate tablet?,, or just reboot into recovery?
#3 flash 4.6.16
Do we need to wipe, or can we just flash away? No combination I've tried seems to work.
I experienced the same thing, first with my wife's NC and then with mine. I stayed with 4.5.18 at 1.3 and that got sick (no market). I installed cherry 1.2, rooted with 4.5.18 and was happy. I'm on 1.4.1 rooted and only problem is B&N archived books won't download but so what, everytning is cheaper or free in Kindle. However, as retired IT professional, this software isn't most robust I've seen, but hey, remember Vista?
Hi,
I have the same problem. I tried it several times. First, I flashed 4.5.18 without any problems, step 1-12. But when I did the same again with 4.6.16, I got a Boot Loop. Step 1-8 were possible without any problems.
I did a complete wipe again, it's always the same problem.
It would be great if anybody here could help me.
PS: Sorry for mistakes, I'm not a native speaker.
Hey guys thanks for the info!
Finally I just wipe and started with 1.4.1 wasn't to sure on 1.2
now...
I have the NC on 1.4.1 rooted with MN 5.12.20
and I have no problems from what I can tell!!! YAY!
I did a complete wipe with CWM "format/system format/data format /cache" and install "1.4.1 complete" not the "upgrade" boot it up and enter my Info and went back to CWM and install MN 5.12.20 and no BOOT LOOP! YAY! everything seems cool but I first made sure when it ask for Zeam lancher I tick the box to make sure its default and after the google setup I tick the box again for the "nook home" or something but its all good after that. I have to check the nook store about the archived books but the books I download seems to be good.

I also updated to 1.4.1 and used MN 5.12.20.

[Q] Stuck at "read forever" - ManualNooter 5.02.12

Hello!
I have some problems rooting my nc with manualnooter 5.02.12. Before this I unrooted my device (by doing that: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=szlGSBtWbKY) and then updated to 1.4.1 (working fine). Then I copied the manualnotter-zip-file on my "8gb_clockwork-3.0.2.8.img"-sd-card and installed the zip-file.
But at next start, my nook gets stuck at the "read forever"-screen forever. I tried this three times, always with the same negative result.
What am I doing wrong?
it seems your new image that you were installing may have had an error. I would try to download a new image, possible from a different site. It sounds like after wiping the boot not much else was installed
try wipe all, wipe cache and wipe dalvik cache, it's work for me
I had the same issue. I found that if I updated my sd card to CWM 3.2.0.1 and reloaded both the MN 5.02.12 and Dal's OC kernel zips I corrected the problem and didn't have to wipe or rebuild anything else.
edit the file in manualnooter-5.02.12.zip\tmp\scripts\uramdisk.sh
change the line below
mv /boot/uImage /boot/uImage.cwbak
to
#mv /boot/uImage /boot/uImage.cwbak
save and flash again,it work for me
sorry for my late feedback, had not much of time.
I will try your proposals later that day, thanks!
Ive been having the same problem as well. So I updated CWM , redownloaded mn, read some of the tips and finally got it working. I ended up having to wipe cache and i used the app2sd w/ the dalingrin kernel. Rebooted and then it was good. I assumed app2sd needs a sd card, but apps from the market saves to internal memory. I'm confused, but at least its working.

Black Screen after Read Forever on boot

My Nook Color was running the stock rooted 1.4.2 and tonight I decided to install CWM from Rom Manager and backup the rom so I could install CM10. The install of CWM through Rom Manager went well but when I did the backup it rebooted and now I get a black screen after the Read Forever screen.
I've tried the 8 interrupted boots which has worked for me in the past but that doesn't seem to work. I've also tried t use a bootable sd card - uNooter, per the CM10 wiki instructions for Nook Color here: http://wiki.cyanogenmod.org/w/Install_CM_for_encore
I know it's pretty hard to brick this thing, but did this actually do it? Any suggestions?

I was able to get it back to stock with A 15/A 10 of this post. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=25354258#post25354258
Just follow the directions and then once it's re-flashed I did a reset by holding the n and pressing power. It'll boot back into stock.
Now that I was able to get it back, I just need to find proper directions for installing CM10.
