I am running android 2.3 off the sd card and when i go to the market to download apps it says download failed. Could it also be that i dont have a sim card in the phone. I have already used the search function and that didn't provide any answers.
THANKS
try unmounting the sd card
Hey all - I'm running CM7.0.3 on emmc on my Nook, and I love it. I've recently purchased an additional Nook Color for my girlfriend. She isn't so tech savvy, so I rooted her device to give her access to the market, etc., but left the stock B&N ROM on the Nook. I bought a 4gig SD card and used the size-agnostic installer from these forums to make a bootable CM7 SD card for her, since I know she wants the Netflix app, among others, that will not run on the stock ROM. If I boot from the SD card in MY Nook, and install gapps and Netflix, will those apps be installed to the CM7 SD card? Or will they be installed to the internal memory of MY device and not work in hers? I'd like to be able to prep the SD card before I give it to her so she can pop it in her Nook and be off and running. Thanks!
For Netflix, as an App it would normally load to your Nook's internal memory. However, you can change a setting in CM7 to load it to the uSD and then it should do so; or you can move it over manually. Not sure about the Gapps stuff though, it might be the same.
Hi guys, long time reader and first time poster here with a question. I apologize in advance if this has been asked and answered, but I have searched throughout the nook forums and have not found a solution yet to my problem and any help is greatly appreciated.
I have been wanting to use CM10 as my daily driver on my nook for awhile now, however everytime I flash the ROM and get things set up, I run into an issue where the ROM does not consider my SD card to be mounted. I have adjusted the settings to be set to Mass USB Storage as one person suggested in the development thread, I have formatted it numerous times to try to see if that was causing the issue, and so far nothing has worked.
I know that the SD card that is in my nook is good as it shows up in ICS without any problems. Does anyone else have any idea on what I could try to get the SD card to mount properly in CM10?
Thanks again for any help, and many apologies if this is answered in another thread.

When you say mounted, you mean you cannot see it under storage devices within CM10? It does not show up in your file manager? That USB mass storage setting is just for seeing on your PC when you plug the USB cable in. It has nothing to do with seeing the card in CM10. And you tried formatting several times you said. How did you format it? In the PC with windows? You need to try SDFormatter which is a free windows program on the web. Other users have said that that makes them show up on the Nook. When the nook first starts up, it tries to read the SD and scan it, if it can't, it won't mount it. There could be something very simple wrong with the card that the nook sees and your PC does not.

Leap,
I have to apologize, I used the wrong terminology in my original post. It seems that the issue I am having is with the SD card being stuck in RO mode and not being able to write to it from CM10. Anything that I have tried to download via the Play Store fails to install with an error saying that it could not install to USB Storage or SD Card. I have formatted the card via Windows, CWM, and using the SDFormatter program to no avail. I have also tried to fix permissions via CWM and Rom Manager and that has not resulted in resolving the issue that I seem to be having. I love the speed at which CM10 runs, and if I can get the SD Card to be RW it would easily replace the ICS build that I've been using forever now, I just don't know what else I can try to get the card to be RW while running CM10.

The problem is CM10 is very finicky about the format on the card. If it does not like it, it mounts it read only. Look for SDFormatter on the web and format with that. Should fix it.
Edit, I just reread and said you tried that. That should have fixed it. Do it again but turn off quick format.

Leap,
Thank you for all the help you've provided, however it doesn't seem that doing a long format with overwrite in SD Formatter got it to work. I'm going to retreat back to ICS for now.

Just a question, after you format the card, do you move any files in it? I had the same exact problem and it must have been a defective file in my titanium backup folder because I had no problem using the same sd when I synch'd titanium via dropbox.
I installed the 19/11 nightly and it is better than anything I ever run on nook. even CM7
Tschumi,
After I finish formatting it via SD Formatter, I place it back into the nook completely blank and reboot the nook. After that, I try to download anything from the play store that requires SD install and it fails to install.

Use ROM Manager and select "Format SD card" which will allow apps to install. Nook will reboot into CWM and begin formatting SD card. Be FOREWARNED! You will lose anything you have stored on the SD card so make a backup and trasnsfer to your PC or somewhere you can later retrieve.
Ok so here's an update on this issue for me. It appears that no matter how many times I used SD Formatter to format my 16Gb micro sd card, it would not be recognized by CM10. I grabbed an old 8Gb micro SD card and threw it in my nook and it worked perfectly, so it appears that there's an underlying issue with the card itself that was causing the problems. Thanks to everyone for the tips and advice on how to fix this issue for me. I appreciate it.
Same issue here

I am having the same issue with my 16GB Patriot microSD card. The card is recognized, but always displays as full (26GB used) in the settings menu. I have reformatted numerous times to no avail. I have an old 4GB card in there now with no issues.

It is that Patriot brand and CM10. CM10 is very finicky about sdcards. If it does not like how one performs, it changes it to read only. You can try formatting the card with SDFormatter, which you can get free on the web. That may help, but it may not.

My TMOUS HD2 (rooted, running ICS 4.0.4 with 16gb Micro SD card) isn't reading my Micro SD Card, when rebooted or SD taken out and put back in, it says 'Safe to Remove' and all my apps that were installed in SD suddenly disappear in Trebuchet and appear as non-loading in Go Launcher. I read it on my TF201 and my computer and they all say it is supposedly empty, although I had installed Temple Run 2 just hours before on my SD. When I place it in my computer, it detects the card but it asks if I want to format (which I don't want) and in my Transformer Prime (TF201) it just doesn't read it. My card had everything, and I don't know how to get it back. I don't know if I have to get a new card and reformat or screw my rom and install JB. Is the card just dead and all the stuff deleted or is it unreadable? Help! Plus, It's NOT ROOTED according to my phone, which makes me really worried if I have to root it again ._. and if I have to reinstall a rom. By the way (I know this is a lot) I tried to take a screenshot, but, again, it doesn't work since storage is on SD thanks to editing stuff in ROM Toolbox. Please help me, it would mean a lot. Thanks!
I moved many of my apps to my SD card, and my tablet stopped recognizing some of them. Over half of them still work, but others register as not installed both in the Play Store and on the home screen. If I go to the Play Store and try to reinstall the apps, the Play Store crashes. They show up in the Application manager as 0 B apps, listed with names starting with "com." These apps worked for a while, and one day they stopped. I have tried formatting my SD card (exFAT) and replacing everything, but, while most apps still work, the ones that were not working still do not.
My tablet is not currently rooted, though it was rooted when I was on KitKat. I can provide screenshots of mounted SD card vs unmounted SD card if necessary.
