I'm completely new at this I just rooted my nook color today with Stable CM7. I wanted too overclock my nook so I flashed the kernel from this thread onto my device http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1064095 now whenever I go to turn on my device it's a blank blackish screen. How would I get it back to how it was before I installed this (I must've done something wrong, I'm an idiot). I just tried to install the stock kernel from here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=908515 but same thing is happening for me.
This exact problem happened to me today. I found some link to a stock 1.1 Nook Color software or something like that, got the Nook Color back to essentially factory settings, and then repeated the whole process of installing CM7, with the added step of installing the kernel along with the ROM and gapps.
Could you link me to this stock software you found?

You used the wrong kernel. That one is apparently for rooted stock, not CM7.
Since your screen is black you might have to revert back to stock OS before reflashing CM7.
Can you boot into CWM from a SD? If so you can just try and redo the install procedure for CM7. This guide is recommended. (Also containing a link to a guide for reverting to stock, if needed...)

Alright I'm going to try to re-flash CM7. Thanks bro.
Well I reinstalled CM7 and when I pressed 'reboot system now' in CWM it just takes me back to CWM so I'm still lost. Going to try to install stock now.
_
Ok I installed stock now and it seems to be working, but It's just stuck at a screen saying 'contains Reader Mobile technology by Adobe Systems Incorporated.' and then the nook symbol in the center of the screen. It could just be loading but it's been 3-5 mins atleast so idk.
Yeah it's not going past that screen where it says 'contains Reader Mobile technology by Adobe Systems Incorporated.' not sure if I should try rebooting though. I tried going into recovery mode and get 'Install failed' so I tried installing again but same results.
I got my nook working with cm7 again, thank you for the help!
weird, my mom called me last night with the same issue. will see it today to see what it was.
Just to add on to the part where you said it took you back to CWM after reboot (for anyone who might come here for answers), you have to take the SD card out before you reboot.
I will post the long version here, mainly because I have nothing better to do.
Here is the situation. I bought a NC about 6 months ago. I rooted it using Auto Nooter. I have no idea what ROM I installed to be honest. I'm very much a novice at this. And I'm quite stupid to boot, I might add. It has worked relatively ok since then. The ROM seemed a bit buggy and I had some initial troubles with constant reboots, in addition to some basic things not working and way bogging the thing down, but in general it was ok. I haven't used it much since unless I was traveling.
Today....I was traveling. Traveling to BFE. As such, I decided to bust out my trusty NC and download a new book while I was waiting for my flight. I did so, and something went a bit haywire. It seems that somehow, without prompting, the device has restored itself to the stock B&N ROM (1.1 maybe?). Yet - the Android OS is still there. For example I can click on my task manager app in the lower left corner of the homescreen and it shows that all of my apps are running and I can even switch to them. But my homescreen is defaulted to the B&N one showing my eBooks and I can't figure out how to get my Android launcher back. I have tried to reboot and it does the Droid boot up but reverts to the same B&N home screen.
I was thinking about trying to update to a new ROM since it had been awhile and I figured there must be something better/more stable out there now - Honeycomb or whatever. I guess this is the kick in the ass that I needed.
So now here I sit in a hotel room in BFE. There are no restaurants open past 9. There are no bars. There IS a Super Wal Mart but I think I'm gonna pass on that.
I figured I would look into this. Where to start? Should I re-set this thing to stock and then just pick a new ROM and re-root? Can I do any of this without having a SD card slot in my laptop - just using a USB cable? Will I lose any eBooks that I downloaded?
I await your sage advice.
rooting actually means gaining super user access to the current android rom. B&N, i believe is Froyo, so you did not install any rom so to speak. you were probably just rooted.
I think the issue is with the launcher and not that it is back to stock. What happens when you long press on the home screen?
If you plan to do anything, you will definitely need an sd card reader.
If you autonootered, then you were running stock, but rooted. With a custom launcher replacing the stock launcher, it sounds like.
At any rate, you were probably hit with the automatic update to B&N 1.2 (which is Android 2.2, iirc.) You almost certainly aren't rooted anymore, but it may allow you to run any apps that you already had downloaded, just from the stock app launcher.
When you get an SD card reader, you can check out Manual Nootering. It's basically the same as the old Auto Nooter, but for B&N 1.2. If you change the rom entirely (install CM7) or just run a different rom from an SD card, you'll avoid having B&N overwrite your root access in the future.
Thanks for the responses. I believe that you are correct. I actually was running 1.0.0. I used auto-nooter to root the thing and had it working with a custom launcher. I don't think it updated to 1.2. In fact I know that it didn't update to 1.2. I am trying to get it to do that right now.
I would like to install a new ROM or root or do something after it updates to 1.2 so that I have access to the Android market. What is my best way to do this? Should I just root again from 1.2? Should I install this CM7?
Can you help me understand the differences? Thanks again.
I could Super Wal Mart tonight for a SD card reader if I'm feeling frisky.
I've got all kinds of problems.
I went to update to 1.2 from 1.0. I removed my SD card and erased and deregistered device. I booted it back up and it thinks it's a phone. I put the 1.2 file in the root drive via USB, as I have read over and over that the thing should recognize the 1.2 file and reboot itself. It's not working. I erased and deregistered again. same deal.
Any advice?
I'd do a full factory reset, then try the update to 1.2 again.
A couple of things about the 1.2 update -- do not unzip the update file or rename it. Just drop it as-is into the nook. And make sure to eject the nook from your computer and unplug it.
Thank you aka. I got it to take. I am now at 1.2. Now back to square 1(.2). Any help on this?

ETA: lol, congratulations! I guess just skip to that link at the end.
I'd agree with akaCat that you should do a factory reset, BUT you can only do that if you still have the stock recovery utility, and it seems possible that you do not. Try to get the NC to reset by interrupting the boot 8 times. If it doesn't work, you may have installed ClockworkMod Recovery on your Nook Color in place of the stock recovery utility. You may have done so while rooting, or later from the ROM Manager app, perhaps even by accident.
Have you attempted to boot to recovery by holding down "n" while you power on the device, and continuing to hold power + n for about six seconds (1-one-thousand, 2-one-thousand, etc), then releasing both? If so, do you get a factory reset dialog (series of yes/no options) or a longer menu including items like "mounting and storage" and "flash zip from sd card?" If you get the longer menu, then that's ClockworkMod Recovery, and neither the 8-failed-boots-reset nor the automatic update are going to work.
If you do have ClockworkMod Recovery, don't do anything yet. Hopefully somewhere on the screen it tells you the version number, in the format 3.0.x.x. Just let us know that version number and power off the NC.
If you still have the stock recovery utility, then do the factory reset, boot into the stock OS, connect USB, drop the update file straight on the Nook (not in any folders), safely remove the NC from your PC, and let it sit. Hopefully it will reboot itself.
If not, the next step is probably going to involve preparing a bootable ClockworkMod SD and manually installing a CWM-compatible version of the update, or of a different ROM. This article may help you wrap your head around the different options: http://quinxy.com/guides/how-to-pick-your-nook-color-operating-system-and-install-options/
ETA: lol, congratulations! I guess just skip to that link at the end.
Thank you, Tao. I seem to be a bit stuck, though.
I'm at 1.2 stock. I was able to reformat and erase my sd card. I went to load the .gz image onto the card (for CM7, per instructions here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1000957) and I also loaded the nightly build. Then inserted card into NC and booted. Nothing.
Any idea what I'm doing wrong? Should I unzip either file?
One thing that might/might not matter....when I went to eject the SD card from my PC, I wasn't given that option so I just pulled it.
One more thing.....the instructions at the link above instruct you to "write the image to your SD card" but then go on to say "eject the SD card" and then further "insert the uSD card into your computer"
Huh?? Isn't it all on the same card? Why do I need two different cards? What am I missing?
This blog breaks down the same process a little more step-by-step, with videos: http://www.anamardoll.com/2011/04/ereader-running-cm7-firmware-on-nook.html
You can skip the long preamble down to "Ready? Let's get started."
You do need to unzip the disk image, and write it to the SD using a program like Win32DiskImager or WinImage. It's also definitely a good idea to safely eject the SD card from your PC.
Hi Tao and others. Thanks again for all of your help. I'm almost there!
I followed this Ana chick's directions and I have CM7 booting up. I am now at the stage where I am trying to boot up in recovery mode so I can get the google apps and wifi thing going. I can't get it to work! I am holding down the "n"/home button and then the power button and it keeps booting up with CM7. I've tried it probably 20 times. Any help? Thanks!
Can someone also tell me how to access the book I just purchased and was in the middle of reading? Do I have to go somewhere and re-download?

I should add that though I can get CM7 to boot, I never get "The Power of Reading". It's just kind of a flash.
That's all normal--verygreen had to make a new uboot, which no longer shows "The Power of Reading" and also flies through a recovery boot so fast you could miss it. If gapps didn't install, just make sure the .zip is still in the boot partition and keep trying. I'm pretty sure holding power > reboot > recovery boot works now from within CM7, but I would go into Settings>Accounts and try to sign in to Google before assuming it didn't install.
If the book was a B&N purchase, once you have the market working, just install the Nook app and sign into your account, and you should be able to re-d/l the book, possibly even still synced to where you left off.
Thank you so much Tao and others. Up and running with CM7. Any additional mods I should be messing with?
btw, you can also boot into recovery through rom manager, its easier.

Easier than holding power a sec, poking "Reboot," then "Reboot to Recovery?"
Really, it's about the same either way, depending how handy ROM manager is on your system.
Hi everyone! Please help me! I've spent most of the last 18 hours on this, rested, and have come back hoping to start today off positively.
I have a new "blue dot" nook with the new partitioning scheme. Not realizing that, I tried to install CM7 internally using a youtube video from huskermania (sorry, XDAforums will not let me link). All went fine, I assume, except for an error in Clockwork that read: Error: can't format /data" error. I believe, after researching, this is a result of the change in partitioning.
Frustrated that I had bricked my nook, and not really wanting to run an internal anyways so I can revert back to regular ROM if I want, I tried to unroot using directions from huskermania again. I really thought it had worked, but it is now stuck on the rainbow Nook Color screen, which will disappear and come back repeatedly.
Please help. My goal is to reinstall the original ROM, then try to install another using SD, but that's not my main priority right now.
HURRAY!!!!
Ok, success!!!! I cannot believe something finally worked. The 8 step reboot did not work, but using power, home, and +volume did.
I am saving the SD card I used to reboot this. Any thoughts on the best way to root a new "blue dot" nook using external so I don ever have this issue again? I know I need to change the partitioning, but I'm still not sure how, even after reading what Maurice Mongeon has to say in his post "how to repartition a blue dot nook color." Thoughts?
How exactly did you finally get it to work? I've done the exact same thing and I'm not sure what to do next. I have a refurbed NC that came with 1.2 installed and I rooted it with manualnooter and immediately flashed CM7.02 stable from CWM 3.0.2.8. It had all kinds of force close issues so I tried to restore to stock but keep getting stuck on the boot animation. I re-flashed CM7 and it still works but I still have all kinds of force close issues. When I try to format data in CWM it says can't format /data! I'm kind of at a loss right now...
UPDATE: Got it working. I had been using the wrong cwm...
Hello all. I've tried to install Cyanogen mod 7 installed on my NC for a few days now. Every way I do it, it seems to install alright, but when it boots, it hangs at the loading screen indefinitely. I've started seeing that darn blue arrow in my nightmares. Any ideas?
Thanks

Seeing that you were able to reach those blue arrows, it means you were able to follow the instructions correctly. But just so we can identify what was done wrong, let's do an isolation test.
Does you NC have a blue/green dot in the box?
Where did you install the CM7?
What specific ROM did you install--is it experimental/stable/nightly? What build?
Did you install gapps?
Did you try to check the MD5 Checksum of the file you downloaded?
>Keep me posted, I'm willing to help out.
Alright!
I followed the instructions given at the youtube video titled "How to Install CyanogenMod 7 on the Nook Color (PC Version)"
(Sorry can't post links yet)
The rundown...
Installed CWM on SD, placed latest stable release of CM7 and gapps on SD root, booted into cwm, format/factory reset, clear boot, system, cache and data, (I was having trouble clearing \data, so i ran the repartition and reformat zips on his links.) flashed CM7 then GAPPS immediately after. Rebooting, I got the load screen, but it didn't go anywhere after waiting at least 15m.
My box has a blue dot on the back.
I haven't checked the Checksum of the file, not sure how to go about that/what that means.
Thanks for the help!
Can't help with the rest... but md5 sum is a code to go along with files so you know nothing got corrupted and the file was downloaded completely... there is a program you can get to check the md5... best I can do to help

I have a NC 1.2. I am able to root using a CWM 3.0.2.8 Msd card with Manual Nooter no problem. The problem occurs when I shut it off and then reboot. It gets to the part where the words "Nook Color" start scrolling across the screen. "Nook Color" completes one time successfully and when it starts scrolling again, it stops halfway through the first "o" in "Color", and just repeats indefinitely. The only thing I could do is completely reset, eight failed boots. At first I thought it may be an older version of CWM on my Msd card so I made a new one with v. 3.0.2.8 and rooted successfully, but first time I shut it off and rebooted, it happened again. I am thinking only thing to do is never turn it off. Any ideas would be greatly appreciated.

What version MN are you using? You’re not wiping anything when you flash MN, right?

Are you saying that after you flash MN, you remove the SD card, it will fully boot up into the OS, then when you turn off the device and try to turn it back on, it will then not boot up? Or, are you saying that after you flash MN, you remove the SD card, and then the device fails to boot?
It sounds to me like you are wiping the system before you flash MN, but until I get the answers to the above questions, I can’t say for sure. MN is a add on pack for the stock OS, not a full rom, so you don’t wipe before you flash.
I have latest version of MN. I do not wipe anything. I boot into CWM and install MN with a msd card. Upon successful installation of MN, I remove msd card and reboot successfully that one time into a rooted NC. I can use Gmail app, download and install from both Android and Amazon markets. However, if I power down completely and reboot, it loops as explained in my OP.

Are you updating Adobe Flash? You can't directly update Adobe Flash from the Nook Color. The most common issues that will cause a boot loop on a NC after having a fully working device, are installing the wrong kernel, and updating Adobe Flash from the Market. If you updated Adobe Flash, download the attached file, and flash with CWM. The file should delete the old flash player, and install the updated one. This should give you a working device again. If it does work for you, please report back here so others will know what the fix it.

I have updated Flash Player from the Market after rooting. If I remember correctly, I've powered down after rooting and installing numerous apps, including Flash, and rebooted . Maybe that's the culprit. I have not installed a different kernel. I'll go ahead and install the attached zip, with much thanks, but I don't know if I want to power off and reboot, for fear of dreaded boot loop.
Ok, I installed Flash Fix and rebooted, and the same boot loop is occurring. Looks like time to reset and reroot, and for now, never turn it off.

I just realized that I missed a step in the install script for that file, that is why it did not work for you. Yes, adobe flash is your problem. To update Adobe Flash on the nook color, you have to uninstall the old version, and then install the new adobe flash.
For all future references, I have attached the working Adobe Flash fix file. It includes flash version 10.3.186.3, that was released today. It has been tested to work, and you can allow auto-update in the market without future problems.
Ok, thanks, I will reluctantly give this a try when I get home from work.
Edit: Ok, now. I'm trying to uninstall Flash Player and having difficulties. It doesn't show up in the app drawer, so I go to Market to see if there is an uninstall option, but there is only an update option, so I updated, and then uninstalled to see if that would work, but it still showed up in "my apps", in market. I opened up app drawer and selected manage apps and found it, but selecting the uninstall button does nothing. I then tried installing Titanium Backup and after installing, Titanium Backup won't open and doesn't even show up in my app drawer. So, I'm a little stymied now. Unsure what to do next

Titanium Backup is going to be your best bet to do the uninstall process. When you selected update Flash from the market, then went and uninstalled it, you were only uninstalling the update. If TB installed, then it should show up in the app drawer of Zeam launcher. You can go into the market, and select to open it from there. Sometime it will not open on first attempt, because it is trying to ask you to give it root permission. If you still have trouble with it not opening, then uninstall it, and try to install it again. You can also open up the “Superuser” app to make sure that it has not been denied root permission.
TB definitely didn't appear in Zeam app drawer. I'm charging now and give it another shot in a bit.
Edit: Success. I got TB installed. I made a stupid error. I only installed the paid app, not the free also. I got Flash uninstalled and installed your Flash Fix.zip with numerous reboots with no boot loops.

Total noob question. This is my first time rooting. I got the root to work fine but updated Flash before finding out about the loop. I'm not sure what I'm supposed to do to fix this problem. OP in this thread said he reinstalled MN 4.6.16 via bootable SD with CWM and could get his nook to boot up. I tried that and rebooted but I'm still getting stuck in the loop.
Do I need to wipe my nook before reapplying MN?

Use the zip file in post #7 (in this thread). Drop it onto the same SD card you used to load MN 4.6.16. Put the SD card in and it'll boot to CWM....then flash that zip file the same way you flashed MN. Then, power off the NC, remove the CWM SD card and put in your regular SD and turn the NC back on. That should be it...no more boot loop.
I've got the same issue as the thread started and I downloaded the zip from post 7 and flashed it just like I flashed MN, but it's still boot looping. It gets a bit farther into the "Nook Color" logo but keeps repeating.

I figure I will explain my problem in more detail. I am working with my girlfriend's Nook trying to get it rooted. The first time I did she had 1.2 stock and I rooted it successfully. She updated flash not knowing that it would cause a boot loop. I had no idea how to fix it so she set it back to factory settings and procedded to update to 1.3 to see if that would solve the boot loop. I rooted it again and it started boot looping again. I found this thread and the flash fix. I flashed it onto the Nook and it fixed the loop problem.
Well she found out that the marketplace has limited visibility with 1.3 and wanted to go back to 1.2 to have her full visibility back. So she factory reset it again, I rooted it again and it started boot looping again. This time though the fix from post 7 isn't helping. I flash it and then reboot and it loads the "Nook Color" logo once fully and then stops and starts it over again and gets stuck at "Nook Col".
Is there anyone who might be able to help me with what the problem is, or am I gonna have to reset it back to stock, use Titanium Backup to remove flash and then use the zip from post 7? I know that it's not a root problem because I successfully rooted my mom's Nook before my girlfriends and her's is working fine.
Followed your instructions and my problem solved, many thanks!
