[Q] [+Problem] Can't boot into CWM Recovery

Hi,
I really love my Nook Color (firmware 1.2/blue dot on package) which I picked up two days ago. I Installed CM7 on the microSD card right away and it's running fine overall. -- However, I cannot boot into recovery. - DANG!!!#[email protected]#
I have looked allover this forum and beyond, but none of the other threads deal with my NC's CWM problem - or offer a working solution I could understand/use...
The ingredients I took to cook up my CM7 install:
1.) "generic-sdcard-v1.3.img" ('extracted' to SD using Win32DiskMgr)
2.) "update-cm-7.0.3-encore-signed"
3.) "gapps-gb-20110613-signed"
Everything installed OK, including CWM 3.0.2.8., which is showing as app.
BUT... no matter how [often] I try to boot into CWM Recovery, it always boots straight into CM7.
(And, yes... I've tried all the "N" + "Power" button press combinations, I think... but none of them worked).
MY QUESTIONS:
- Any idea what I did wrong? Why can't I boot into recovery?
- How can I fix this without having to use ADB? (Note: Yes, I am willing to learn, but command-line programming is not exactly my idea of fun). I was hoping there actually is a simple fix to this problem... something like "place this [...] on your SD card and boot", or so???
...Thanks for your help & suggestions.

Have you tried holding down the power from cm7 and selecting reboot into recovery?

I think i know your problem. The 1.3 installer image is not fully compatible with CM7.0.3. You might be able to update to the RC or a nightly and get it to work. Otherwise you are going to have to remake the SD card.

Thanks for your help, koopakid08! After flashing CM7 three more times in the meantime, I had that hunch, too...
Can you tell me what to use if one of my "components" is no good(?)??
I want to run CM7 off my microSD (not the eMMS install). -- So.. what do you recommend me to do, as I'm afraid I don't quite understand what you mean with "update to RC or nightly"...
Is my issue related to the CM7 version, or is it the "generic-sdcard-v1.3" image?? If it's the CM build (7.0.3), there is no RC available for the "encore" yet; just a nightly (#177) dated 8/31/2011.
If the problem is the sdcard 1.3 image, what else is there I can use to run CM7 off my microSD?
-- Thanks!

I can't believe it was THAT easy... [email protected]@##%$&$%@%*(!%%^& !!!!!!
It was indeed either the sdcard image, or CM7.0.3. Which one, I really don't care anymore, as I just flashed the latest CM nightly (#177) ... and CWM Recovery ...WORKS [:gasp:] !!!
It's a bit late now here in Chicagoland, so I better hit the pillow (it's a school night ..ha ha... tomorrow].
I will post instructions later; just in case someone else runs into the same issue.
Thanks, again, koopakid08, for getting me on the right track.
Good Night!!

Just in case you want to know what the problem was. It was the CM version you were using. The 1.3 image only works with cm7.1 versions. Glad you got it figured out.

Just an additional observation... You are using an old version of CWR. The newest is 3.2.0.1.

I don't know if you got everything sort out but, bear in mind: booting off uSD has NOTHING to do with CwM R., whatever version.
Moreover, you boot into "recovery", not boot into "clockworkmod recovery"
If you intend to run off uSD, you can completely ignore anything about ROM Manager or CwM Recovery since those are not go together and it causes more headache than help.

ICS beta2+ roms can't be launched, not partitioning problem

Hey every1,
i got weird problem with all ics roms, even SD <
I can successfully install tytung beta1 rom and run it, but beta2+ roms and similar ones, and SD build all have same thing:
i have random freezes/stuck at bootlogo(it doesn't freeze, it simply continues to do the animation forever), only ONCE it booted, but since i needed kernel fix(for headphones) to apply - i restarted, and wasn't able to boot in successfully again. Now almost all the time i get freeze/reboot after ~5-10sec after i get into ics rom, SD build doesn't boot at all.
Partitioning problem? - have tried many partition layouts.(like 190/10,200/10,210/10,200/20,230/20,210/20 and so on, also with different bootloader partition size up to 8mb)
Also i have always used task29 and fully wiped everything and reinstalled from scratch, still didn't helped.
Also tried to boot with plugged in usb cable/without it or with/without memory card in.
Maby it's radio version problem, or don't know, what else can cause the problem?(radio ver:2.15.50.14)
Between i have created big cache/memory sometimes(up to 250mb partition/44mb cache) - and still it didn't worked fine :/ also tried different clockworkmod versions(3.0.0.5 and 5.something), magldr 1.13
p.s. i have europian hd2(not t-mobile)
or maby i'm partitioning it wrong? i change partition sizes inside flash.cfg and after i flash clockworkmod(i do task29 before that, and install fresh magldr), maby i should change somewhere else/more?
Also formatted memory card many times(sdformatter) and redownloaded roms, still same result.
p.s. tried ~3ics beta2+ roms(not sure mb even more), and 1sd rom
Edited:
forgot to mention, when phone kinda freezes(the boot animation/startguide for ics) - when i press physical buttons - the backlight appears and after that dims away as it does on every other android rom, so it kinda feels that rom isn't frozen, only the screen. Also sometimes after getting ics welcome screen - after ~5-10sec it gets back to bootloading animation and does it over and over again...

hey
I'm having the same problem did you figure it out I'm having same problems with ics and cm7

What has worked for me is 5/230/5. Im using tmous but that layout should work for your version.

Thanks
You are the man bro I cant believe it was something so simple

problem
I just tryed that partition it worked then rebooted while i was trying to set up the device do you know why?

I am using the ICS beta 3 now, I have updated with every release and I didn't get this problem. It sounds like something crazy, you may just have to wait a little bit because ICS is still very beta... Check out HD2 Toolkit as well it makes it much easier flashing..
Wait, I didnt didn't see that you were having problems with cm7.. :-( I'm afraid I just wasted your time on my reply..
What Clockworkk mod recovery are you using?
And how are you transfering your data to your SD card?
---------- Post added at 05:15 PM ---------- Previous post was at 05:07 PM ----------
Try backing up your entire SD card, and then reformat it completely.
Then task29 and wipe everything.
I think you said you use magldr, since your having these problems try cLK
Use just a simple 220MB 5MB cache on HD2 Toolkit
Install ClockworkMod Recovery 5.0.2.6 as it is the newest one.
Transfer your zip file to your SD card using a card reader.
Install and see if ICS will boot.
Try that and see if it works. It should work.
Question. Do you have this same problem with any roms besides CM7 and ICS?
---------- Post added at 05:17 PM ---------- Previous post was at 05:15 PM ----------
Don't forget when using cLk you download the main zip file for the rom, and then a separate zip for the cLK kernal..

Aarrrgghhh!!

I am ready to throw my HD2 in the bin !
Took the big step to try and flash Android and been running into one brick wall after another. The latest.....
These are the steps I've taken:
Updated Radio to 2.15.50.14
Flashed HSPL 2.08
Flashed Magldr 1.11
USB Flasher option in Magldr and flashed DAF
When I do a long hold on the reset, I see 'NAND Kernal open Failed' error. It then goes into the Magldr options where I'm trying to go into Services->BootSettings->AD SD Dir to run my Data2SD folder from root of the SD card and then go into CWM choosing Boot AD SD but here it freezes at GO GO GO !
Please help - I am losing all faith in doing this :-(

Go to the NRG android build forum and follow the steps he provides. It went really smooth for me. You might have to flash back to stock WINMO first.

Look in the hd2 android development forum for the NRG ROM thread. I'm not sure how to post the link from this software (I'm on my Dell Streak right now). The process is described in the third or fourth post.
You flash back to WINMO by simply flashing a released ROM from the hd2 windows development forum.

Thanks Steve I found the thread eventually and followed it. I get the NRG Energize boot screen but it doesn't go further - feels like its locked in a continual loop cos I have to take the battery out to reset.
I've tried re-flashing it through AD Recovery but still same prob.
Can you explain what this means:
'For the SDEXT version, you need a CWM layout of 5/200/5. If your phone doesn't boot, try a higher than 200 partition.'
What is SDEXT and is there a download link?
Your help appreciated.

'SDEXT' just refers to an EXT 2, 3 or 4 partition on your SD card on which you can store apps. You can partition your SD card from CWM for this, and of course you will also have to flash the correct system partition for the ROM in order for it to work

How long did it stay on the boot screen? Mine took many minutes to boot the first time (it is also somewhat slow to boot even after the ROM is installed).
EDIT: I'd say leave it for 20 minutes. If it doesn't complete, then there is something wrong. Also, start with a full battery.

WoooHooo It's working !!
I used the Toolkit and (think) did 5/200/5 layout, flashed it and ran the zip with the ROM. Left it for 20-odd minutes and it sprang into life.
Had a quick play and is far smoother than my old crappy WinMo 6.5 but my batteries dying so will have a proper play tomorrow.
Thanks a bunch

Glad you got it working.
Download the Battery Calibration app from the Market and follow the instructions it provides - you need to recalibrate the battery after a flash.
Also, check the settings; I believe the standard settings are for performance rather than energy efficiency.
EDIT: That is for the NRG ROM; I don't know which one you flashed.

Well had a good play with my new NRG Android ROM and love it.
However, I noticed that if I swithch the WiFi off, switch Mobile Network on and try and browse the web it comes up with web page not found errors.
Is there a fix for this or is there some other setting I need to make ?

Every Android ROM stuck in bootscreen

Hi there,
I haven't flashed a new Android ROM in a while on my good old HD2.
Things got changed...
I have magldr installed, and I also just installed CWM and seems to work fine too.
And I partitioned my SD card with a 1GB ext4 partition.
When I flashed a ROM in CWM, and I want to boot it, it keeps being stuck in the bootscreen of the ROM after magldr loaded it.
And yes, I have been waiting like 30 minutes, because I know the first boot takes a while, but not 30 minutes...
I have this issue with every Android ROM, and I am wondering what the problem could be, because I'm already struggling with this for lots of hours, but still haven't find any solution.
Windows Phone 7 via DAF.exe seems to work fine though, so my guess it that there is something wrong in partitions? but I am not sure at all.
I hope anyone could help me, I would really appreciate it.
Thanks in advance!

Well I am not sure about that actually :O
I also tried a magldr partition of 445MB.
And I used the Recovery_400M.
But CWM looks to work fine.

I tried again.
Want to flash this ROM: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1275119
I made a 1GB ext4 partition before.
With HD2 ToolKit I made a 175MB System partition, and a 8MB cache size.
Guess what?
It seems that it's booting now
Still waiting till it's fully booted, but I'll keep you updated.
Thanks kylew1212, you made me understand the 5/175/8 formats.
By knowing this I actually succeeded now

You can do it yourself,open the recovery folder,right klick on flash.cfg,open with editor.Now you can change the values of "boot yboot", "system ya", "cache ya" how it is on the Discription for the rom you would to flash.Now you must save it.
That´s all !!

But for what is this?
Because I got the ROM fully working now with the way I described before.

I also get stuck on bootscreen with every rom that i flash with CWM.
Until i flashed a new kernel today i didnt have that problem (using ThypooN CM7). When it got stuck i did a task 29 to try and fix it.
Maybe i am missing something, this is what i do using HD2 Toolkit:
task 29
flash 2.15.50.14 radio (at first i didnt do that but i makes no difference)
install MAGLDR
install CWM
flash rom with CWM
I am using a 150/5 patiton for the ROM (recomemded in the OP), i also tried 160/10 but again it doesnt work.
CWM installs the zip normally. When i try to boot the rom it just gets stuck at bootscreen. I tried leaving it for 20 min and it still doesnt work.
I even installed wm6.5 and did the whole process of installing MAGLDR again to see if that helps but the same thing happens.
I also tried using cLK and got stuck again with every rom.
cLK, MAGLDR and CWM all work just fine, that is why i have no idea why the rom gets stuck at bootscreen.
It seems to me that the CWM doesnt install the rom corectly. The only rom that does work is AmeriCan Android becouse i doesnt need CWM.
Is there anything i can do to fix it?
Thanks

I'm not sure what's going on. I've flashed many roms with cwm. Never a problem. However if you think cwm is your problem try another recovery, there are a few more available now. I've started using team win recovery project (twrp)
One other thing. It is not necessary to reflash the radio everytime. Once it is installed it does not uninstall unless you change to a different radio.

I also flashed many roms with CWM and i never had a problem before.
Now i tried twrp with clk (clean install with task 29) and it flashes the rom normally. After i reboot i get the bootscreen, then i should get the boot animation and all i get is a black screen (the backlight is on). Few seconds later the phone vibrates like it booted but the screen is still black. If i restart the phone the same thing happens again.
I guess i'll have to use wp7

[Q] How to install Custom rom on HTC Tattoo?

Hello,I am newbie.
I just want to know how to install custom rom on HTC Tattoo because Android 1.6 is realy outdated and I realy like Gingerbread.
Let me notify you that:
1.I rooted my phone with Androot and flashed my recovery with Clockworkmod!
2.When I want to rebot into recovery i got displayed /!\ (triangle with exclamation mark in it).
Thanks ALOT!!!
Have a nice day.

http://wiki.cyanogenmod.com/wiki/HTC_Tattoo:_Full_Update_Guide
Take a look at the section Installing the ClockworkMod Recovery...

Can't get into recovery
I already have Clockworkmod.

You're actually in thè recovery.. but the one with triangle is the stock one. As kemoba pointed you have to install a custom recovery that is clockworkmod for our tattoo. Go further and read... here is full of instructions...

I flashed my recovery:Current Recovery: ClockworkMod 5.0.2.0.
Is there a simple way?Would ROM Manager do the job safetly cause I am newb and I don't want to brick my phone(that happend to me back in the time).

If you have the recovery working you've few things left to be done:
Donwload the rom you want in the sd
Optionally dowloand gapps in the sd
Boot into recovery
Make a backup- just in case: )
Wipe dalvik- in advanced menu
Wipe cache and data
Install rom
Optionally you may want to install gapps.
Boot and wait... be patient first boot in a new rom can take a while.. 10 mins generally.
Enjoy

Like I said,I can't get into recovery !

Ouch,this looks like an easy guide,but I need to create Gold Card,hard stuff bro.Its late in the night so I think I will continue this in morning.
PS. Thank you for helping me out!

Goldcard is somehow optional... I mean that you may not need it or not. In my case I never felt the need of it. On the other hand you are surely more safe with it if you know how to use it: ).

Yeah I know,but like I said my PC can't find my android and I can't use that method!
