I had just finished installing Myns New Rom and Flashed the combo radios aswell, I ran Titanium Backup and installed my apps. I opened Rom Manager and said I had to flash Clockwork Mod and it updated to 3.O. I then proceeded to make a back up of the rom and then my phone went straight to boot loader, It would not reboot and would not enter recovery just reboots back into boot loader. I finally removed the sd card and rebooted after 10 mins it went back to my rom. I then tried to open my sd card on pc an nothing shows up, I tried 2 others and nothing, cannot even format. I borrowed my friends evo and went to recovery with sdcard in to format it say error can not mount and nothing. I tried within the phone, with cm6 installed and it said the sd card was blank or wrong something, (I forgot) No luck. I think it might have destroyed my sd card, Im trying to find a software that may allow me to do so any luck.
-not visible in pc
-cannot mount or format on phone or recovery mode.
-16gb Micro Sd card Sandisk class 2, bought when touch pro came out for 110 from bestbuy (got 100 back from Htc Touch return so really only 10)
-Had partitoned earlier to run mikifroyo app2sd, unpartioned by formatting.
Please any help would be greatly appreciated, thank you.
Ok when I Insert My SD card it just boots to loading and reboots over and over again. Any ideas?

try looking in the forums for the lastet recovery in .zip format.
Copy it to the root of the sd card. (if you think that you have an issue with the SD card, then take a fresh SD that is formatted to Fat32. Make sure it is not NTFS. If you formatted on the Mac, make sure the partition format is MBR and not GUID, if you don't know how to do this, I can explain further. The easiest way would be to make sure that you do it on a windows machine)
Start your phone, and hopefully it will install the recovery automatically.
After you install the recovery, and get your phone booted into android, you can locate a pre-rooted rom of your choice in the forums here or at the "other" place if you prefer.
You can read more about it in this other section of the forum. The information below is from that forum, in case you can't find it or are too lazy to search.

Thanks, I was planning to do this but Im more concerened about my sd card, The phone boots well with out the sd card now, So I was planning to install the zip later. Thanks though I really appreciate the help and thoroughness of your answer which is great. But do you by anychance know what I can to do to recover the card back?

All this on a new vibrant using the stock 2.1
I've rooted the phone with one click. I've used oneclick as admin to run the 3s update.
I have update.zip loaded onto the root of my phone(not sd card)
I have clockwork recovery on my phone and i have done a backup
I have booted to recovery mode from Rom Manager then when i try to install zip from sd it takes me to a directory.
I select zip from sd card
I select sd/ and my nothing is showing there just keeps taking me back to the directory and telling me "no files found"
Sooo then i tried flash rom from sd in rom manager and it starts to flash then give a message "no sd-ext found. skipping backup of sd-ext" then it tells me to reboot.
What am i doing wrong I've been working on this since yesterday morning with no success.
sd-ext is the external sd card not the build in 16gb.
Put one microsd in with the rom you want to flash.
You need to put the rom you want to flash in the internal sd card, not the external sd.

I had done that in the first place and then when i went to boot the screen was all distorted and i couldn't see what it said so i flashed the stock rom back.
I just tried again and it said to reboot so i did and now my toxic rom seems to be working just fine. Thanks for the input
Hello there i am just asking for some asistance i am new to nook i upgrated to phiremod 7.1 by doing a full wipe and now that i tried to backup my room it just doesnt boot or passes the boot screen i wiped all my system,caches,data,boot like i do with my phone now it desnt let me boot not even in clockwork recovery it just sits there any help will be highly appreciate it ...
same here, now made an uSD card and trying to restore...
What version of CMW are you using? Make sure it is the latest 3.2.0.1.
I had your same problem until I used the image from eyeballer. (Look for his thread in the android development section)
Here is my method that finally worked :
Burn eyeballer 's data image to SD card using win32diskimager. Use external card reader. Run as administrator.
Then copy whichever zipped rom you want to use on that same card.
Make sure nook is off. Insert burned SD card. Power on nook. If you haven't already done so, format data and system (in the mounts and storage section).
Then install zipped rom.
After rom is installed, Before turning off the nook, replace SD card with another unburned SD card. The rom usually will not boot without an SD card inserted.
Then select reboot on CMW. Usually takes 10-20 minutes for a first time boot.
Hopefully this will work for you. If not, you may have a faulty SD card
Sent from my NookColor using xda premium
so i have cm 7.3.0-encore installed and
1) i cant get the android apps to install
2)cm mod( rom manager 4.2.0.2 clockwork mod 3.2.0.1) will not let me updgrade to premium
when i try to download rom it tells me i must upgrade rom manager to latest version and when i press ok i get another box that says "the application ROM Manager process com.koushikdutta.rommanager) has stopped unexpectedly please try again" and when i press ok i get sent bact to the home screen.
3)when i try to reboot into recovery,1) with the sd card in,i get booted to the main cyanogen mod home screen
4) and when i try to install gapps i go into the recovery,/install zip from sd card/choose zip from sd card/confirm install/when it says install complete,i exit out(reboot system now)it goes back to the main nook color screen so i have to power the nook off and back on so it can boot into cm. once back in cm,i dont have any market.
Oh and my software version is 1.2.0
PLEASE HELP!!
As much as I or we want to help you, we are completely lack of info.
Please provide some basic info about your system and what you are trying to do.
1. Where did you get cm7.3.0?
2. On your very last sentence, 1.2.0. What is that?
3. How have you run "which ROM"? from eMMC or uSD?
Those info is a good start to get more help.

i hvae to pull up the site i got the mod from (i believe it was the cyanogen forum,ill get back to you on that)
2 1.2.0 is the stock nook firmware.(i believe they are up to 1.4 now)
3 i have no idea what your talking about.(im hoping your asking wether im running from internal or sd card. if that is the case,im running from the sd card
OK... to help you there are several things we must know... since answers to each can influence the method we need to get things working as they should:
1. Which method did you use to setup your SD? i.e. verygreen's SASD, racks11479 or another method.
2. Which ROM are you having issues with? i.e. CM7 on SD, Stock 1.2 on eMMC
3. What "android apps" are you having issues with? i.e. google apps (gApps) or another specific "android" app... since they are ALL android apps.
If you used verygreen's SASD then you CANNOT use the stanard ROM manager and CWM to install gApps... you have probably screwed up your stock system and installed gApps there... not that it will work... but you are now no longer "stock"
If you can answer these questions and elaborate as to exactly what you have done, and are trying to accomplish, we can provide informed suggestions to you... otherwise we can flood this thread with a TON of solutions that will EVENTUALLY work... but waste lot of time and cause you much frustration along the way.

4) put sd card in nook
5) let the install run

First off, you are running CM7.0.3, NOT 7.3 since it is not exist.
Secondly, I start following this post of yours. Pls note, whatever you did or have done described in your very first post were totally screw. Don't know who show you that.
Anyway,
Let's put it this way.
1. Your device is NC (NOOKColor)
2. Your NC is running stock ROM version 1.2.0 on eMMC.
3. You want to run CM7.0.3 on external uSD card.
4. You have problem getting Android apps.
Right? OK
1) got a sandisk 16gb micro sd card and fomatted it to fat 32. => good
2) used win image to burn generic sd card image to the sd card.
Ans: I strongly suggest you getting the Win32DiskImager since a lot of members reported having issue with WinImage.
3) once burned, i put cm7.3.0 encore zip file in the root of the sd card.
Again. It is CM7.0.3.
Assume after successfully done creating a bootable uSD using Win32Diskimager, put your cm7.0.3 (or suggesting using CM7.2-RC KANG) into the root folder, where you see those mlo, ramdisk, ... file. It should only 4 files there at this time.
4) put sd card in nook => correct
5) let the install run => it should
6 - after successfully install, it will automatically delete the cm7.0.3 zip file then shutdown.
7 - remove the uSD, put back into PC, download and copy GApps and put it the root folder, same place where you just put the ROM before.
Link: http://wiki.cyanogenmod.com/index.php?title=Latest_Version
Note: rolling all the way down and select one for CM7, not CM9
8 - remove the uSD off PC, put it back into the NC, power it up
9 - let it boot into CM7 first, do connect to your wifi at this point is a good choice, then reboot and choose reboot into recovery using the menu.
10 - after it boots back into recovery, it will install the GApps now and shutdown again.
11 - reboot and start using.
NOTE: the way I show you above is the easiest way. There are several ways that are so good and too convinience but it's far more advance for newbie. When you get used to the NC, you will find out more.

Did I just said whatever you did or have done, described on your very first post were screw up?
Why would you do that?
You follow to step 10, you are very close to get it up and running then you continue to do the wrong way. That's why you can't get your NC work.
On which instruction you got that shows you doing the "went down to "install zip from sd card,choose zip from sd card" when you are running CM7 from uSD?
My suggestion, start over again, go slow.
Since using the uSD, why not using the stable CM7.1 or CM7.2 KANG? Get rid of the 7.0.3
Ok lets start from the beginning:
I was trying to upade from 2.2.2 official to 2.3 official and now i'm messed up because after the step : "upgrade sd card" my phone restarted and my usb cabel was still on and phone started charging,after that i tried to turn on my phone.It worked but after 20secs my screens freezes and cant do anything even turn off i need to take battery out,also phone not detects my sim card...
Any idea? My phone is rooted,have installed CWM5.0.2.3,but have no backup only public one...But i can't mount usb storage because i get error like "E:Unable to open ums lunfile(no such file or directory)
ANY IDEAS????
I can get to pinkscreen aswell
If you have an external sd card put the public backup there and try to restore via cwm (if you get boot till there). You can also try the update procedure(the dload folder and stuff) but put them in the external sd card! The phone should boot from there.
Anyway,better wait for more answers since I'm not the best in here.I just know how to flash some custom roms.

sorry for dumb question but microsd = external sd? if yes - then i placed the backup in the card but in cwm only phone memory shows no sdcard...
Edit: external i got that
well it actually is an external microsd card
did you manage to restore via cwm?
P.S. if cwm doesn't see your se card go to advaced->reboot into recovery
should be able to see it now

When i do "reboot into recovery" my phone double restarts and 2nd time it turns on normally not into recovery...
Don't know why this is done,but I think we should be happy that your phone isn't bricked
Maybe someone else here can help you and provide better solutions than mine
Have a read through http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1639761.
Has a link in it to how I solved my issue of constant reboots.
Also , since you can load pink screen, you can connect through usb and change your recovery to 5.0.2.7. That's the one i used. Make sure that you have a cust.img file in the "image" folder. That is where the recovery should be too but am guessing you already know that.
If for some reason you dont have cust.img you can find and download a generic version in these forums. Did not need it so I did not bookmark the post I found it in but I think it was the Kalo's Honor Port thread in the pro development section.
Hi, so I've tried everything I can think of to restore my Nook to the stock 1.4.1 but nothing has worked and I've given up before I break anything else...
This all started when I was trying to install the CM7.2/CM9 dual boot from SD card - I burned the image to the SD card and booted but the device just hanged at a black screen (for a lot longer than it should have) after the CM "loading" startup screen.. I tried removing the SD card after holding the power button to turn it off but it then refused to boot to the EMMC stock OS... Somehow (I've only ever used SD card CM ROM's) an old CWM install (v.3.0.2 or something) was installed on the internal memory that booted when I tried to launch a factory reset (Power + N + vol+).
I then followed an older guide to restore to stock by formatting the /system and /data and installing a .zip from sd card (the nookcolor_1_4_1_signed.zip) but it failed with a (bad) error....
Now I don't know what to do. The device now hangs at "Read Forever" and the internal CWM is gone, as well as everything else I'm assuming... It will boot into CWM if it's installed on an SD card, but without that it will just reboot into Read Forever when I try to turn it off...
An aside, but now that I've checked with external CWM again, it appears there is now a "/system1, /system2, /data1, and /data2" file on the EMMC...
TL;DR: How do I restore Nook Color to stock 1.4.1 from CWM installed on an external SD card without flagging a "(bad)" error with the install?
Thank you for any help and I hope I haven't bricked this device... Hopefully this is just a case of ignorance on my part
EDIT: I've tried re-downloading the 1.4.1 and even a 1.2 signed ROM with out success. I haven't rooted the device, but I do not know how the internal CWM got there, as well as the fact that the external SD dual boot didn't work.. I'm using a new SanDisk Ultra 16GB SDHC Class 10 card if it makes a difference..
Could not having rooted the Nook be the only cause?
I had successfully dual booted the CM7.2 and CM9 for months until my old 16GB card broke... This was the new card I bought last week and it's been nothing but problems, exacerbated by myself, probably :/

Easy solution. Go to my tips thread linked in my signature and make a bootable CWM card per item A10. Then flash my format 567 zip. Then go to item A15 and download my 1.4.3 stock ROM and flash that. Boot up, register and you are golden.
If you want to put a ROM on SD go to my updated SD instruction thread also in my signature.

Thanks! I'll try that right when I get home..
EDIT - Awesome - It works! The dual boot card also works!
EDIT 2 - so... booting from the SD card still doesn't work... It just hangs at the Cyanogen7 boot video looping over and over (left to go to the store, got back and it was still looping)... holding power button down just resets the device while the SD card is in, doesn't actually shut down for more than 4 seconds or so....
Should I post this as a new thread? I'll try searching for anybody else having this problem in the mean time...

Are you using Racks' dual boot SD? If so, how recent is it? You might want to go to his special CWM and clear dalvik cache and try rebooting again.

Yeah, I used the Dual Boot image I downloaded a couple days ago from Techerrata (I used the one at the top of the list that had the most downloads, connection I'm on is blocking Techerrata so I can't get the exact name ATM) with burned with Win32DiskImager, popped in the card and turned on but it just hangs. I'll try clearing the dalvik cache with his CWM image and see if it fixes anything..
EDIT - Ok, I tried clearing the cache, but it gives me the following error:
E:unkown volume path [/data]
I checked the Mounts and Storage Menu, and it looks like I still have "/system1, /system2, /data1, and /data2" directories, did the 567 format.zip not take care of whatever file structure or partition these were kept on in the EMMC?

The format 567 zip was for clearing the partitions on internal memory (emmc). Those partitions you are looking at are on the SD card (system1, etc).
You might just try clearing cache with his cwm rather than dalvik cache. You also might get a better response posting your dual boot question on the dual boot thread. I don't know a lot about the dual boot.

Sounds good, I'll try that. Thanks again for all the help, though!
One thing to note... the initial boot does take a while and sits on a black screen while the cache image and formatted. Racks has put that into the dual boots with loop mounting so each bootable system will have its own cache space and avoid overwriting cache data from nother ROM.

Good to know, but should it really take more than 90 minutes to initially boot? I let it boot up to CM7 on a freshly burned Class 10 card and left for the store, when I got back it was still at the boot video, watched it for another 5 minutes and it still didn't do anything... I don't really know what the problem is, could it be the card?
I have seen it take up to10 minutes, but 90 is definately excessive... I would suspect the card being the issue... class 10 cards are not good for running any operating system from. While they have exceptional sustained read/write speeds... they (generally) have poor random small read/write speeds, and this is the types of files used by an operating system.

Oh.. ok, well good to know! I'll pick up a different card today and see if that will work.
I got the Mirage 7.2 to work, by writing the "generic_sd.img" to the card, the coping the .zip download to the boot partition (renaming it to "update-cm7-mirage.zip" so the generic loader would see it)...
I inserted the card, booted, and Tux showed up and it ran through partitioning the card, expanding the mirage zip, and shutting down. However, when I turned it back on, it showed the Cyanogen mod bootloader, and I selected "SD Normal" but Tux showed up again and it went through trying to partition again (which it said was not needed, so it skipped) and finding an update- / .zip file (which it deleted when it expanded it before), same with the SD recovery boot option... Should I just try a new card?
EDIT - So, I was sick of messing with SD card booting, and realized I really don't care if I have the stock OS on it anymore since my warranty is about to run out anyway, I just rooted it an installed Mirage 7.2 and it works! Thanks for the help with the SD Card problems, though!
