Hi!
Im new with this of craking, and im not a native english speaker so forgive me if i dont explain well my self.
I just root my NookSimple Touch (version 1.0.1), with touchnooter-1-6-24, during the hacking every thing was going fine, the "root forever" logo showed up, and then it got stuck in the barnes and Noble loading screen, so i waited like for 20 minutes and nothing! it remains in the same loading screen. So i took out the SD card, and re boot the nook, it started up well and i could complete all the steps of the rooting procedure normally.
Now im having troubles with some apps, cant use the browser, and cant use well the wallpaper app, it dont allow me to select any of the images, and even worst when i select one of the Live Wallpapers (only one live wall paper was working), the next time i turn on the nook it got stuck again, but this time on a diferent screen, on the unlock screen at the starting up. After many rebootings could use the nook again and close the Livewallpaper app. Now is working fine.
Now im scare of using other apps and crash the system again. So i have some questions:
Is it normal that the apps that i mention dont work well on the rooted nook? Or is it concecuence of the failure i mentioned during the hacking procedure? Do i have to root again the nook?
I didn´t do a backup, does it worth to do one now? Or just save some information of the system that could be use in the future for an emergency?
last question, when one uses the set fabric settings option, does the nook goes to original version (with out the root)?
thanks a lot in advance for the soon answer

Do a backup, if you screw up, its the best way to have a copy of the unique information on the factory partition of your NST.
You need to do a Reset and a Restore to get rid of root+Gapps+Apps, use this:

"set fabric settings option"

I've suddenly developed a problem with my rooted Nook Color 1.2.
I soft rooted it back in April using ClockWork and apk-enabler-1-1a-signed.zip.
Everything worked as expected.
For the past few weeks I haven't needed any of the andriod apps. I have just been using the Nook as a reader and I have not made any changes to it other than loading and removing books.
Today I realized that it was booting to the stock user interface and pressing the N key did not bring up the menu list of alternate managers that I installed.
I have tried re flashing the NC with apk-enabler zip file. When that didn't give me back access to the andriod apps, I tried flashing with the newer MiniRooter from NookDevs. Now I have a new flyout menu on the right side of the screen, but there really isn't any response to pressing the icons.
I'm sure that I'm leaving out an obvious step or doing something else dumb and I really appreciate it if someone could point it out to me.
Thanks!
Hi.
I have a serious problem using my Nook Touch.
I imported my Nook the last November.
As soon as it arrived at my house I rooted it and then after using it for a week I decided to make it back to the default factory state using the backup I had made before rooting.
I think the unrooting itself was successfully done but when I try to boot my Nook up, I can not get though the initial setup section (the sign part), it says,
Sign in
Error
Sorry we're having trouble setting up your Nook. Please shutdown the device and try again.
If the problem persists, contact Customer Support at 1-800-THE-BOOK (1-800-843-2665).

Then I have no choice but to power it off which doesn't do anything to solve the problem.
Now I have a Nook which is completely unusable in my hands.
I have not read a single book yet after I paid an extra money to import it and waited for it to arrive for 3 weeks...
I am at a loss as to what to do now, so if you can help me in any way I would be really grateful for it.
Force reset it by shutting it down, then starting it up, and when the screen flickers press right and left bottom buttons, hold for 5+ seconds.
This will resolve the problem, if not:
Use nookRestore to restore /system (http://forum.xda-developers.com/show....php?t=1289233)
and then:
Update to 1.1 (http://www.barnesandnoble.com/u/Soft...uch/379003175/)

Thank you for the reply.
I am sorry, I forgot to mention that I used both the forcefully reset option and the nook restore software, both of them did not change anything.
And it seems that you can not update your firmware unless you completed the initial setup.
So virtually I can not do anything right now.
Just do a data reset (the forced one) without the restore and try it.
I think you can update to the 1.1 not registering, getting into the factory mode:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=20121721&postcount=17
and copying the 1.1 update the Nooks flash (not sdcard)
http://www.barnesandnoble.com/u/Software-Updates-NOOK-Simple-Touch/379003175/
Thank you for the advise!
Now I can go to the Home screen and at least can read something which I put into my Nook.
I am pretty relieved that my Nook is not complete useless.
But I still have that problem of not being able to sign in.
The same message appears every time I try to sign in or create a new account.
It would be great if I could get rid of this problem...

Click to expand...
Click to collapse
Try this:
Log onto the B&N website with your account (same as you try to sign in on)
Go to My Nook hover the picture and select "Erase and Deregister Device".
Now try to register from the NST again.
complete noob here, so sorry if i am posting i the wrong place. I tried rooting my nc 1.2.0 but it didnt take, i think i unplugged it too soon. so I did a complete wipe and afterwords the nc was showing my software rev as 1.1.0. I then followed the instructions for auto-nooter 3.0.0 and i got to this point:
6 Your NookColor will reboot when it's done.
That was the hard part, now to the simple stuff.
7 Upon boot unlock your screen.
8 At the Android Welcome Screen skip Sign In.
9 Enable Location Services when given the option.
10 Connect to Wifi and launch Youtube from "Extras".
so here is my problem. After enabling location services(step 9), when i hit next I get a prompt saying:
complete action using
home
softkeys
home simply takes me to the normal nc home screen and softkeys asks for superuser permission the first time and afterwards also goes to the nc home sceen. i have wiped and re-rooted 3 times now with exactly the same results. am i missing something or doing something wrong? is there a different method for rooting that I should be using instead? should i attempt to go back to vers. 1.2.0(not sure how I would do this)? any help anyone could give me would be greatly appreciated as my kids are dying to use the nook and for me to be done "hogging it" thanks in advance
its fixed
ok not sure what gives, but i rebooted again and it seems to work fine now, other than not many apps in the market. I dont know how to delete this post so i just replied. mods feel free to delete
Have searched the forum and couldn't find any discussion about a similar problem to what i'm having with my phone. This is super weird.
I'm on an official B928 rom. It started some time ago. Whenever i reboot my phone it "resets" to a particular state. Which means - everything i do with my phone before a reboot gets reversed back to a particular state at which my phone "froze". If i delete sms, they come back, if i install programs they are gone, if i uninstall programs - they come back and so on..
I've tried to flash B928 and B552, but i always get an error at the second stage (have tried all possible combinations - with/without the battery, formatting the card). Pink screen is blocked - can't unblock it, because my phone deletes the necessary files after reboot. Can't install CWM for the same reason.
Is that it? I'm out of ideas. If anyone can throw any idea at me or direct me in the right direction i would be very grateful.
Thank you
reboot recovery
advance menu
format /data
take a look if it help
I only have the standard recovery, not cwm, it doesn't have advanced menu.
But even if i try the wipes in it, it does nothing, meaning it doesn't even delete my data.
Thanks
I'm having the same issue with my u8800-51. My thread is here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2331209 but no suggestions therein have helped, yet.
Ok, i see. I've seen some people restoring their phones with Acronis, but for this you need a working pink screen, which is a no-go for me..
Hi all. I used to mess with my Nook Color a lot around a year and a half ago but recently was just using it to read and occasionally browse. I'm 99% sure I was working with just a nook which was used with manual nooter, so that I had the Google Play store and Zeam launcher with stock B&N as well. I was having issues with things "not being able to update" so I tried to mess around, only realizing too late that I wasn't really interested in cm10 and wanted to stick with zeam. Since then I've been trying to get back to how I started but I'm failing miserably. I've so far tried wiping/factory resetting my device. Installing cm7 from zip, resetting everything using the guide here and installing 1-4-1 cam oc zip from here and still I fail. I can get into the set up screen, but when the device will not find any wifi signal and then freeze without allowing me to type it in under "other". Honestly I'm not sure what else to do now. I just want my nooted device back -__-.
Please let me know if I can submit any more information that can help solve this problem. Thank you for your time.
I'm literally infinitely stuck staring at this screen.
Managed to fix everything. Used section A15. Enjoy anyone who ran into similar trouble.
