really screwed up??

:shock:
I was using the XDArit utility to write to the SD card and selected Disk0:Memory Card Adapter.. got a message stating it was my boot disk but I ignored it since it listed as the memory card adapter... guess what.. now my PC won't boot, says no operating system found.. I tried booting the win XP disc and doing a repair but it doesn't see anything on C:
anyway to recover my drive? I am sure the stuff is there somewhere right? Sh*t.. I wish I had done this on my home PC and not the office PC.
any help appreciated

Haha!
you overwrote your harddrive!

Since I don't have any idea what the tool you used does, I will (randomly) suggest http://www.partition-recovery.com and their program PR.exe. If the tool does a lazy format or bootsector write (just rewrites the 1st few sectors) PR may work. You can download a test version which won't operate fully but which will say if it finds anything to recover. If the XDA tool actually writes substantial amounts then this won't help.
There are quite a few tools which will scan the disk for anything that looks like data and recover what they can. Of course, if the tool you used actually overwrote the whole disk then you'd have to go a specialist company - and data receovery might still be possible - but this is likely to cost.
Good luck.
PS
I don't think "Haha" was a very kind comment. Not my idea of a "solutions provider" to go to - no matter how expert they might think they are.
Still, it did make me decide to sign up to the forum to post this in case it helps.

I downloaded the demo of PR.EXE and after scanning my drive, it appears that all data is still there... so I have purchased the full version of PR.EXE and it appears promising that I will be able to recover the most important stuff and simply restore my system (needed a restore anyway).
Thanks for the tip!

thx mate ... I appreciate such attitude ... hope others will learn someday! ... welcome on board

where did it go?

So I downloaded some ringtones from myxer.com they show up and play through the settings fine. But I can't find the actual files themselves. I've looked in the sd download area. And internal media file and the stock ringtone file. Does anyone know where it would be?

how did you 'download' them? browser? mms?

I just looked, looks like through MMS. What ROM are you using? If you have cupcake, just open the message that you got the file from and save to the SD card, and it will be in the download area. If you don't have a cupcake ROM, then you are missing out on some features.

I'm using haykuros apd 1.5hr3 rom. I downloaded it through the browser. I'm a little new but I know the basics and some advanced since I've bricked my phone repetedly time and time again through trial and error . But I just can't seem to find it. Someone should try to download a ringtone from myxer.com dirctly from the g1 and let me know if u can find it

I see what you mean dude, I'm trying to find it now too.

Hmm.... Usually if you download anything it ends up in the Downloads folder. Next time make a copy of it or move it to your SD Card if you can.
Also the technical term of "bricking" means the device has rendered itself useless (no boot, no recovery etc, won't turn on at all), effectively turning it into a paperweight, like a brick ^_- Most likely you've meant that the device has "boot looped" instead.
I only say this because people are not using the terms correctly, confusing others. Its like people on Windows saying they've got a "virus" when a program crashes... Most likely that isn't the case.

Gotchya. Not bricking then. Infinate loop. Regardless, I've downloaded programs and roms dirctly from my g1 and using 2 sd cards flashed and etc. But this specifically doesn't go to the download folder

A guide to tweaking your X2.

Disclaimer: I am not knowledgeable about phones. I do not code and nor do I usually do what I describe in this post. The contents herein was put together by me in order to avoid confusion for people with the same interest as myself, making my X2 work better/faster or just plain customized. Because of this, I've made a few assumptions and also only described the way that worked for me.
This guide is based on the collective work of forum users, I take no credit or responsibility for its accuracy other than the fact that it worked for me.
This is only the installation steps, they are not specific to my knowledge. There are other guides out there for changing your language and doing more advanced thing, but this is just the basics. At least they are to me. Let us begin.
-----------------
Hello and welcome, this post is meant to guide you through the process of customizing the installation of your Xperia X2. My hope is that it will make your phone more responsive, but more importantly give you the option of deciding what you want installed.
The first thing we're going to be doing is to get ahold of the right files to install on your X2. Thankfully these files have been made availiable to us by PavelX1 in his post "NEW ORIGINAL X2 ROMS + Extracted CABs update 14.6.2010"*
Don't let the number and letter jumble intimidate you, on your own X2 the information you need to find the right package is found at Settings -> System -> Unit Information**. Here you'll find a bunch of numbers and letter combinations, if you look closely some of these will correspond to the names of the files availiable by PavelX1. Find the one that corresponds to your unit.
In my case it said that the following:
Software ID: 1230-2397
Software Version: R3AA035
Customization ID: 1231-4911
Customization version : R20A
Language Region: GENERIC_SE
I therefore searched for the following file which matched my information :X2_1230-2397_GENERIC_SE_R3AA035_CDF1231-4911_R20A.rar. Below that file was the file we're interested in for this particular guide. The GENERIC_*your language*_*version*_CABS.rar which in my case was named GENERIC_SE_R3AA035_CABS.
Now what we're going to do is get your computer prepared. Please download the Sony Ericsson Update Service (SEUS) available at their website.
If this is the first time connecting your X2 to your computer it might want to install some drivers in order for your computer to communicate with your phone, this is irrelevant to this guide but I mention it in order to let you know that this is normal and you have done nothing wrong.
Once we can connect to our phone and use its memorycard (which I assume you have) we will open the GENERIC_*your language*_*version*_CABS.rar and extract its contents into it. It has been suggested that you throw in an extra file together with the others availiable in the post "Want a fix for the X2? Only us can do it." on page 3.
We may now move on.
If you already have SEUS installed it was suggested by royalbloodvi in his thread "[TESTED 100% WORKING] Quickest way to get MR2 for those of you who can't get it!" that you remove the following folder C:\Program Files\Sony Ericsson\Update Service\db from your computer. I haven't tried any other way so I'll leave that bit of info as is.
Now we can begin the install process, this will take a little while so don't be in a hurry. It's important that you do not do this on a phone with an empty battery as it may interrupt the install process and cause problems, charge it before you do this. You may also want to backup any files important to you on the phone as they will be removed in this step. As an extra precaution you may want to remove the sim card as well.
Now that we're ready, go to Settings -> System -> Clear phone memory and press it. You'll have reset your phone to its original, empty, state. Connect your phone to your computer, if you haven't already, and begin the update process. SEUS might tell you that your phone is already up to date, this may be true, but we don't WANT it to be up to date, we want to decide what it is updated WITH so click update anyway.
Your phone will reboot. Disconnect your phone from your computer and open the backside of your phone by sliding the lock switch and removing the cover. Remove the stylus and you will see a small depression at the top left that was shidden by it. This is the hard-reset button for your phone which we will be using in a moment. Untill then you wait. Your phone will ask you to calibrate it after the sony logo has shown up. Calibrate the screen and your phone will start installing .cab files. quickly go to the hard-reset we mentioned a moment ago and press the tip of the stylus to it. A click was heard on my X2 when I pressed it and I assume the same is true for yours.
Now your phone will reboot, you will notice that it looks markedly different from what it did before this procedure. Don't worry, we can fix that if you like, but first we must address the window that has popped up and asked if you wish to try the install again. No, no we don't. Click no.
We are now freed from the shakles of oppression that is preinstalled and unremoveable software and may begin installing the files we WANT.
GO to the file explorer and select Storage Card and you will see all of the files we extracted to it previously. In order for you to know which ones you want I suggest that you go to the second page in the thread "Want a fix for the X2? Only us can do it." to get an overview of what the individual files do. Installing them is as simple as clicking them and selecting to what part of the phone you want them installed, I choose to install all of these files to my phone and not my memory card.
Now, to get your phone looking like it did before you did this (assuming you didn't use a panel but a standard theme) you will spot three theme files called X2_Saturn.cab (which is the one I use that looks like the stock one) X2_Saturn_Light.cab (which I don't know what the difference is) and X2_Titan.cab (which I also don't know what it looks like).
And that's that, you're done and hopefully your phone is more to your likeing.
--------------
Here is a shorter step by step guide without the filling, unceremoniously "borrowed" from royalbloodvi and slightly reformatted. Please read the full guide and use this only as a quick procedure guide.
1) Reset your phone.
2) Unpack the GENERIC_*your language*_*version*_CABS.rar to your phones memory card and add the multifix.cab found on this site.
3) Open SEUS, start a new update. Even if it says you have the latest version you want to do it update anyway.
4) Once your phone reboots the calibrations screen will appear. After calibration it will start applying .cab files. Now push the reset button that is hidden behind your stylus and battery cover and it will reboot again.
5) You may now find the files you wish to install on your phones memory card in the file explorer.

Dummy's Guide to update your I9000 from the stock software to the Official Froyo

After successfully;
researching, upgrading to the official build of my choosing, getting it to work and typing this tutorial out (for those that like me weren't knowledged in this),
I stumbled across this thread. I thought I should also share it here aswell.
Here's a N00b's (Dummy's) Guide to how to update your device from the stock software to the Official Samsung Froyo ROM (software/operating system) OF YOUR CHOICE!!
Why do this?
You get Froyo. So you get the latest version of Android to support more Apps.
It comes with some UI-tweeks, JIT-compiler, and FLASH 10.1 PLAYER!!!
Also you get a newer (better) kernel on your phone with some of Samsung's fixes for the lag and for the GPS.
You can get features/Apps not available in your native rom build and/or remove the bloatware.
This method (not incl E) can also be used to install custom ROMs (I personally can't wait for the Official English MIUI ROM).
** Denotes steps which I skipped, or was unable/unwilling to follow, or didn't quite understand
Here's the comprehensive, step-by-step, easy-to-follow breakdown/walkthrough (Section E only works on Windows Computers):
A) Remove your microSD card (this will prevent some weid issues later on)
A2) Make sure you have Kies downloaded and installed on your computer
A3) Make sure you have an extractor installed (for Windows 7, winRAR is a great free solution)
B) We need to root your device, for this goto "One Click Root/Unroot" by TGA_Gunnman at http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=742403
B1) Download (2.5MB) the software (depending on your computer, mine is Win7 Home Premium 64-bit) into your computer not phone
B2) Make a folder somewhere in your computer labelled "OneClickRoot" (or anything) and drag the .rar file (the one you just downloaded) into it
B3) Extract the contents of the files by Right-Click then "Extract Here" (If you don't have this option install WinRAR)
B4) Set your phone to USB Debug mode (on your phone goto MENU > Settings > Applications > Developement > USB debugging = Checked) and then connect the phone to the computer via USB cable.
B5) Open the "Galaxy S I9000 One-Click Root" application. (This step didn't work for me, so I instead opened "rootme" batchfile which started the command prompt).
B6) Your phone will shut itself off, and then turn on in a "recovery mode". DO NOT REMOVE THE CABLE. Use the Volume Up and Volume Down buttons to get to "install from " and then hit the Home button.
B7) Now your device should be restarting again but this time it will actually go to your lockscreen.
B8) Now, you have ROOT, Congratulations.
B9) Not sure? We can test to see if you have root. Goto Market on your phone and download two Apps (Superuser and Titanium Backup, use the search to find them fast).
B10) Install both and launch Titanium Backup. As soon as you turn it on it will come up with a pop up and say something like "Your device is not rooted" or "Root is not accessible" ... if you didn't get Root.
B11) If you have root it will say something like "Titanium Backup needs to gain permission from Superuser" here click Apply. If you get to the App, well done you have indeed Rooted your phone
C) Now if you want to Backup your device before the update (recommended) you can follow steps C, otherwise skip straight to Step D.
C1) On Titanium Backup if a pop up notification comes with something like "Download an updated BusyBox" allow it to do so.
C2) Now first thing you will want to backup your Apps (all paid and free and the levels/hiscores) make sure you don't have any emulator ROMs on there (they consume too much space) and delete all those unwanted Apps
C3) On Titanium Backup, hit the Menu button > More > Create "update.zip" ...
C4) On this screen select "User application" and "TitaniumBackup-3.6.2.zip" and UN-TICK the "Sign the ZIP file (with ZipSigner)"
C5) Hit the Create "update.zip"... on the bottom and Please wait
C6) Once it finishes it, exit Titanium Backup, go back to settings and disable USB debugging (as posted on B4).
C7) Connect your phone to your computer (through Kies or PC link) and then browse your My Computer until you find Galaxy S I9000.
C8) Open that folder and then open phone. Find "TitaniumBackup-3.6.2.zip" and copy that to somewhere on your computer.
C9) Now that we have backed up your applications, lets backup your ROM.
C10) According to TGA_Gunnman you can use Clockwork MOD Recovery to do this, but this is for a different (Galaxy S) device ie "Samsung Vibrant"
**C11) Follow the steps on http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=734164 to do so, personally I skipped doing so out of fear of bricking the device (there may be subtle differences between the devices that can make your phone a paperweight/brick)
C12) Now if you did follow the Clockwork MOD, be sure to copy the "update.zip" file somewhere into your computer (better be safe than sorry)
D1) Now we need to apply the 3-Button-Combo Fix (this is the only reason for steps A-C because it is highly recommended to have this before flashing ANY rom)
D2) I recommend the Fix by RazvanG http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=821698 because it seems to be the *safest*
**D3) Firstly check if your device is compatible. I wasn't successful to dump my BML1 block, so I couldn't test if the block reads "[email protected]"
**D3) RazvanG has provided some instructions on this method see his post for more information http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=9595936#post9595936
D4) So I took a leap of faith and continued anyways with the risk of bricking my device. I have it on contract/plan so if it fails I would just return it and say Kies was updating and it failed
D5) I followed the steps on the thread but I'll reitterate it here for your convnieance
D6) Download both files (RAZ-FiX-SGS and adbRecovery) from the thread.
D7) Make a new folder (adbRecovery) on your computer and extract the adb .zip file into there
D8) Connect your phone to the computer and copy the RAZ-FiX-SGS.zip into your phone's memory
D9) Delete the old Update.zip file AND rename the RAZ-FiX-SGS.zip to Update.zip
D10) Again, turn on USB debugging (you know how) and open "Recovery" batch file from your computer
D11) This will initiate a command prompt (on Win7) and restart your phone
D12) Your phone will go into recovery mode (like we've seen before)
D13) You need to navigate (Volume buttons) to "apply sdcard; update.zip" and hit the Home button
D14) Your phone will turn off and restart and should get to your lockscreen
D15) So you're at the lockscreen? SUCCESS! (mine didn't brick *pheww*)
D16) Now let's test to see if the 3-Button-Fix worked
D17) *IMPORTANT* Firstly browse into your phone's internal memory and delete update.zip (the one we put there from RazvanG)
D18) Now that you have done so, you can safely just turn off the device
D19) Hold the Volume Down + Home button ... then hold the power button, as soon as the device begins to turn on release the power button (keep holding Volume Down + Home)
D20) If you get a Yellow triangle with the Android robot and "Do not turn off Target", well done, you have the 3BF so you have a means to ensure that you can always recover your phone if you do brick, well done!
D21) You can *safely* remove the battery and restart your phone ONLY if you don't have a Update.zip in the root of your phone
D22) If you don't want to take a leap of faith try this method (safest method but doesn't work for some people): http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=860773
E1) Now is the fun part (we've just past the difficult parts)
E2) You need to hunt down the version of (official Samsung)software you wish to install ... just go through member's reviews and recommendations
E3) You need to find the product code of that build, you can do this navigating through this thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=846913
OR by asking members (they can find out with http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=787163)
E4) For me this was the Virgin mobile Australia build (XSA - an unbadged, no-bloatware, unlocked Froyo build with a free copy of Navigon Navigation)
E5) Make sure you update your Kies to "ver 1.5.3.10103_102" (latest as of the time I'm writing)
E6) Go visit this thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=835628 for information (the software may have been upgraded)
E7) Download (300KBs) the Kies Registry patcher 1.6.0.0 (latest as of writing) <<This only works on Windows computers, sorry Mac'ners>>
E8) Launch the Kies Registry Patcher WHEN KIES IS OPENED
E9) Click on File > Backup (and save this somewhere in your computer - this is your original product code - better safe than sorry)
E10) Make Enable Spoof to True
E11) Now where it says "Spoof Product Code as" type in the product code of your desire (mine is XSA)
E12) Hit Write Registry and it should say "Registry pathed successfully"
E13) Connect your phone via USB cable to the computer
E14) On your phone select "Samsung Kies" when the pop up comes ... it should be at the "Connected" screen (DO NOT HIT HOME BUTTON)
E15) On Kies it should find your phone, and a pop up on the corner will say "There is a firmware update available for your phone" hit that pop up
E16) Now you will see another pop up and it's asking if you want to "Back up contacts before upgrading firmware" ... seems like a good idea, tick the box and hit Upgrade
E17) If the screen on the phone shuts (ie standby) don't be alerted. Hit the power button to wake it up. DO NOT HIT THE HOME BUTTON!
E18) Another pop up will come to name the contacts file - I just hit save so its the original filename in original (Samsung)folder
E19) Another Pop up will come to say "Save to PC completed" - hit OK, its just letting you know the contacts saved properly
E20) Now you get another Pop up to start the Firmware Upgrade - This is an important area, note down the: Model Name, Current Version and Latest Version (if something goes wrong this info maybe valuable for developers)
E21) Mine is (model)GT-I9000, (current)PDA:JG4 / Phone:JG3 / CSC:JG2 and (latest) PDA:JP5 / Phone:JP3 / CSC:JP4 ......... notice they are diffirent, this is what I was looking for
E22) Hit Upgrade! (Allow Kies to function when Windows 7 or Windows Vista prompts you)
E23) Tick the "All information has been verified" and Click Next
**E24) Let Samsung record your phone number in their database? I don't care (I'm on insurance/contract/plan) and I hit "Allow saving" ad Clicked Next
E25) Wait patiently, its downloading the rom from the server, DO NOT UNPLUG THE DEVICE
E26) A progress bar will appear, your USB will get disconnected, reconnected several times, the phone will be stuck on the yellow triangle screen - these are normal
E27) The progress bar will slowly be filled from grey to blue and a progress bar will appear on your phone - almost there!
E28) The progress bar on the computer will finish and the pop up will read "GT-I9000 Upgrade completed" - Click Close
E29) Your phone will restart and will enter "recovery mode" some yellow texts will appear and scroll forward
E30) The phone will reboot again and you will see the boot image with the Galaxy S logo
E31) The phone will be stuck on that logo for awhile - be patient
E32) The phone will now get to your lockscreen, unlock it
E33) You will have to go through your initial setup firstly its the Swype tutorial, then data settings, and finally the account settings emerges
E34) If the Kies connection screen comes up: hit the home button
E35) Now you should have come to your Homescreen go and test everything (all your passwords, all your bookmarks, all your contacts, all your images/music/videos and all your apps (except bloatware) should be there but the order of all the widgets/apps in TouchWizz will be reset to abc-order)
E36) Goto Settings > About Phone Does it say Android 2.2?
E37) Well done you have passed Android Hacking 101, you are officially smarter than 50% of iPhone and Blackberry users
E38) Donate me a beer, nah just kidding, enjoy everything for free but feel free to donate to the developers that help make this possible

Hopefully this might help fellow xdanians

Aww Mate this is awesome, I have the same Carrier and I had OPTUS crap on my Phone from custom roms, Now I'm back to Stock Froyo!!!!
A great tool to Start from afresh.....
But
At Instruction E11 - Select your product code from the drop down Box and it will populate the next field for you.

Gonna put into my favorites

Wow.
I don't think anybody that don't now much would read that.
I know allot and i would never use it either.
You should stick a warning sign on this tread.
I did read about half of it and then i just stop and shake my head.
I hope this tread is a joke.....

Can you elaborate?
Joke? No it's no joke but I should disclose (as always) this is a tried-and-true way of getting you to update your software but in no way can I be held responsible for damages.
Things may vary slightly in between different phones which is why the links for each source/thread is up there.
I found myself knowing what to do, but always guessing how to do it.
This is a step-by-step process of how and what I did to upgrade my phone to any ROM I want.
If this was posted up before I attempted my upgrade, I would've been so happy that someone really simplified it for me

This is a noobs guide??!!! Simplified??!! I think that everyone will appreciate the time you have spent typing this up and trying to help, but I'm with DamianGto, dude this guide is scary and just explains how YOU got YOUR particular phone running froyo and lets face it, you certainly didn't go about it the easy way!
Once again I think the time you have spent and the willingness to help is admirable, but there are much simpler and noob friendly guides out there

Well you need root + busybox to get the 3 button fix.
If anything a n00b did, they can recover with 3 button trick otherwise they will have a brick.
This is why this guide is long, to ensure things are a-ok.
If you found a friendlier guide can you post the link, much apprecated ;D

How do I exit downloading mode if I forgot to erase update.zip ?

What is it ? Kies
A2) Make sure you have Kies downloaded and installed on your computer
Thanks

Well I think this is an excellent guide that has great potential!
However, a couple of crucial mistakes, which if fixed could help make the guides less confusing...
At beginning of (D) you talk about (A-C) being solely so you could fix your 3 button download (which I don't think is actually true!)
.... But, you should mention 3 button download at the very start of the guide anyway!!
Also, you should include a quick test at the very start to check for 3 button download, because mine is already fine, so a newbie might run all those extra steps when they already had working 3 button download anyway! (The more sections that can be skipped the better!). You can then steer people to the sections they uniquely will need.
However, titanium backup isn't needed for 3 button download fix, but is a wise step before running a rom update. And this works best with root anyway. Hence I don't think your opener for (D) is very accurate. You didn't just complete those steps JUST to get download mode. The backup was important anyway!
Do others think there should be a stage added for backing up contacts etc?
A stage for backing up efi?
Anything else wise that should be in here?

NOOK: encountered a problem that requires a system restart

Hello, from Spain. (Sorry for my English)
I have this problem in my nook simple touch: appears on the screen: "encountered a problem that requires a system restart"
I've tried all sorts of things I've seen in this forum and in others (update to 2.0.1; recoverys, formatting, etc. and nothing works.
I would like to try installing version 1.0.0 of nook, but I can not find the .iso.
Could someone help me? Thank you very much.
Luisa

Do you have ADB working?
A logcat will tell you exactly what the problem is.

Hello
Thank you for contestarrme.
1. The Nook can not be opened.
2. Nor is turned off completely
3. After it seems a restart, the message "Encountered a problem That requires a system restart" appears
4. Nor do I make the PC recognize it.
5. I tried to fix it using this software uy following the instructions of the forum to do so, but without success: "sd_2gb_clockwork-rc2", "Alpha-FormatTouch-2", "touchnooter-2.1.31", "install_stock_1.1_recovery "" NookManager-0.5.0 "
6. Unfortunately I can not find the original Nook software, to introduce it, but would not know how to do because the PC does not recognize the Nook
7. If you have any idea and can explain it, I will be deeply grateful.
8. Final note. I've been looking for "logcat", as I say, but I have not found the way to do if my computer does not recognize the nook. Is it possible to do another modo¿ give me a link where you explain?
9. Many, thank you very much !!

The good part is that the NST is almost unbrickable.
The bad part is that to get things going is a bit complicated.
(I've also lost track of where the stock images are.)
See the thread on OmapLink. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2579521
When you get that error, does it restart itself or do you have to push a screen button?
If you're using Windows, does it "bong" when you plug in the Nook?
Does Windows ever say "unknown device" or ask for a driver?
What happens with a long push on the power button?
I'd stay away from these "super-one-click-nooter" things, they aren't very good when something is wrong.

Hello
I try to understand the link you sent me.
Meanwhile, I answer your questions:
1. When you get that error, does it restart itself or do you have to push a screen button?I am the one that presses the button, to restart. If I do not push it, it does nothing
2. If you're using Windows, does it "bong" when you plug in the Nook? Effectively, when connecting the nook you hear the typical sound, but it does not appear between the connected devices (although once it appeared ... I have tested the cables with other devices and they work perfectly)
3. Does Windows ever say "unknown device" or ask for a driver? Never:
4. What happens with a long push on the power button? If I hold down the button, the display remains frozen (read forever). As soon as I stop pressing, it starts to start (nook.by Barnes ...)
5. More: I tried to press the lower left and right buttons, and a message appears that says install failed
thank you!!

Hello
I have been reading the link you mentioned above. The truth is that I find it difficult. If you have any idea (I do not mind putting the Nook at risk) I'm ready to take it. Thank you !!

Hi.
I've been this weekend trying to figure out how to fix my nook. After trying noogie "and not getting anything (the screen freezes with the message rooted forever) I have come to the following conclusion: maybe I could fix the nook with a backup of some person who wanted to give me yours, and then put it in The nook with the program Roadkil's DiskImage.What do you think the idea? Do you think someone would have a backup of their nook that could lend me? Thanks

Sorry, short response for now.
You know that the point of Noogie is just to put up the splash screen, then mount the entire internal SD card over USB?
It doesn't have any user controls after that.

No, i did not know. I thought it was to restore the nook to an original version.
Thank you

Hi.
I guess the silence indicates the few solutions that exist for my Nook.
Thank you very much for everything, Renate. It has been a pleasure.
Gracias!!

Maybe this?

Awhile back, XDA member @the_alternate posted a link for a region reflasher. If you can get the NST to at least reset, you might be able to rewrite the innards by that method. The link is https://sites.google.com/site/xcdguides/nook/nookregion

Sorry for the speed of my response.
It can be a little tricky to get things working, especially:
If you never turned ADB on.
If you never got the Windows drivers working before
If you never made a backup.
Can you get Noogie to work?
Do you see new disks on your Windows machine?
Do you see any "unknown devices" in the Device Manager in Windows?

Hi, Renata. Before writing I tried the solution you give me about the region change, but it did not work. I think I'm asking for something impossible and, besides, making you waste your time. I very much appreciate and very sincerely the help you have given me A way so disinterested, but taking advantage of Christmas I will buy a new Nook.If you think, we finished this topic. Thank you, thank you. I hope you enjoy the year 2017 and everything is wonderful in your life and in the lives of people around you.
