[Q] My Nook Glow won't go to CWM (1.1.5) - Nook Touch General

Following this after I turn the Nook on with the flashed SD card, it just goes toward the normal booting path rather than going to CWM. I am using a Nook simple touch with GlowLight and on 1.1.5

typically that means you didn't make the sdcard corretly.
extract the clockwork image to the point where you have an .img file
on your desktop.
Use win32 disk imager, or dd, or some other disk imaging utility to write the image file to the card.
Once you're done with it, you should be able to boot from that card. Lots of folks wind up copying either the .zip or the .img file to the card rather than imaging the card.

[Q] Question about dual booting with micro SD card

I am following the instructions here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=987735
I downloaded the Image Writer, 3.0.2.8 bootable images, and the 0.7 image for my SD card. I burned the 0.7 image file on to my SD card and have 4 files, including the uImage and uRamdisk files. (I got here by following steps 1-3.) Step 4 says to rename these two files and replace with the new ones. Are these new ones from the 3.0.2.8 image?
I think I'm just being dense here, but I'm not understanding the instructions correctly. I burn the 0.7 image, correct? How do I proceed from there, to get the updated files, which I'm assuming are in 3.0.2.8. Do I rename the files on the SD card and just burn the image from 3.0.2.8?
Any tips are appreciated.
Anyone have *any* tips for a newb??
If you got the 3.0.2.8 image from http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=13283643&postcount=34 as hinted at in the instructions of http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=987735 then there is no need to replace any files.
Just copy this image to your SD card (use the right image for your size SD card) and put it in your nook and boot. You should end up in recovery.
Gotcha. I didn't try the card, was thinking there were more steps. Duh! Thanks.

Nook on sd not show partition and books

I tried to install the operating system on external sd card by putting on it the backup of the internal memory, patched boot partition with this pase.zip and activate adb with uRamdisk file in uRamdisk_usb_adb_init_1.1_1.1.2.zip , decompressed in the same partition.
This seems to work but I can not install books and I do not see the sd when I connect the player to my computer (linux).
Do you have any idea or know a version already prepared and simply to copy to sd?

[Q] Burning Backup SDCard

I am not technically savvy about burning images etc, but after successfully booting the NC with the Triple Boot SD Card, I wanted to backup the card and burn an image to another card. However, when I use ImgBurn it creates either a ISO/MDS or IMG/MDS files. I am trying to figure out how to write the "image" to another SD Card but thus far without success. I haven't been able to burn these with either ImgBurn or Win32DiskImager or at least have not been able to figure out how since ImgBurn seems to write optical drives only, and I don't think Win32 will write from a MDS file. Can anyone help??

Just use win32diskimager to create the image. Then you can use it again to burn to another card.

Thanks so much. I had tried before to write with Win32 but to the SD card. I had a problem initially writing to the PC ( Error 5: Denied Access) but I rebooted the PC with the multi-card attached and then was able to access, read and write. The new card booted up fine in the NC. Thanks again! Lesson learned. http://forum.xda-developers.com/images/icons/icon7.gif

Can someone tell me how to do a full noogie backup on Nook Glowlight (no SD card)

I have a Nook Glowlight (white) that has no sd card slot. The backup instructions I've found on here all seem to use a removeable sd card.
Can someone point me to step by step instructions on how to do a complete noogie backup of all 9 partitions http://dl-1.va.us.xda-developers.co....jpg?key=vHfXWBo_W6THEajnqbc9kQ&ts=1429887776 a Nook Glowlight? I'm going to try some partition modifications, but I want to be able to restore to the backup image if I dork it up.
Many thanks.
You need to have the internal SD card to present itself over UMS (USB Mass Storage).
I'd use omaplink to get noogie working.
noogie mounts the entire volume.
Once you have the volume visible there are any number of tools that can copy it back and forth.
Win32DiskImager is one, but I object to a simple utility that is 14 Megs because it uses QuickTime!
I prefer (obviously) my own sdcard.exe command line utility which weighs in at 70k.
omaplink and sdcard are in the signature.

SD Card ignored in all cases

I'm about exhausted looking for a solution. 1st the Nooter steps don't work, the NC boots into original system.
No matter what steps I follow nothing causes the NC to read the SD card. At this point I'm totally confused.
Here's what I've done:
1) format the SD card, title "boot"
2) Using Win32DiskImager Iinstall "generic-sdcard-v1.3-CM7-9-10-10.1-10.2-11-largest-Rev8c.img" which gives me a list of files on the SD card
.android_secure
Android
B&N Downloads
getjar
LOST.DIR
MyFiles
MLO
u-boot.bin
uImage
uRamDisk
3) Then I copy
CM-11-20160523-NIGHTLY-encore.ZIP
and
open_gapps-arm-4.4-nano-20160603.ZIP
to the SD card.
(What is the purpose of CM-11-20160523-NIGHTLY-encore-recovery.img? Am I suppose to change the name to just recovery.img? that doesn't help the situation.)
4) eject the SD card, insert into NC, connect the NC to the computer via the charging cable.
5) Result is boot of NC into original operating system as always.
What the H am I doing wrong?

Are you sure you have a Nook Color? You could have a Nook Tablet. A Nook Color has a black bezel and the Nook Tablet has a silver bezel. These files will not work on a Nook Tablet.
