No. I know dizzyden was working on a way to make that happen, but as far as I know, stock only works on emmc.
But you could put stock back on emmc and your Kang on SD.
Ah ok, thanks for the help

Would it be possible to just do a cwm backup of my current Rom then restore it onto the sdcard install?

No. Apparently there is some code in the ROM that expects it to be on emmc. It fails if on SD.

Well in answer to the original poster in this thread, I now have a way to get Stock on a verygreen SD. Look at my tips thread linked in my signature and look at item B11 in the second post of that thread. You can even have rooted stock with OC and apps2SD support.
I am still working on a method of having stock on SD while still using data on /dev/block/mmcblk0p2... I have not given up... just gotten side tracked a time or two.

Mine does that. Just had to modify the ramdisk.
Thanks for all the help and Info leap and dizzy ....ill go try it out and let you know
edit: Its been awhile since i made a sd rom....so far i have made the sdcard from This and i dont exactly understand how to do the rest of it properly, my nook color is on the cm7.2 kang build with mirage kernel and in Leap's instructions it says
leapinlar said:
So the procedure to get this working is to prepare a verygreen SD using the image file attached to my SD installation instructions thread here (generic-sdcard...). Then boot it at least once with the SD installed in the Nook so the SD can partition itself. If you have an existing verygreen SD prepared, you can skip those two steps. Copy the zip files to somewhere that recovery can find them. If you use the newest versions of CWM or TWRP recovery they can read files from emmc media storage. Boot to recovery and insert the prepared verygreen SD into the Nook. Flash the ROM zip to the SD. It will format the system and data partitions on the SD and install the ROM. Boot to the SD and the new stock ROM should load. Follow the directions to register with B&N. Once you have registered you can stop there if you are satisfied with plain stock. But be warned, if B&N decides to update to a new version in the future, it may mess up whatever you have installed on emmc. Therefore I recommend that you flash the Block Updates zip which blocks OTA updates. If you flash Manual Nooter you do not have to flash Block Updates separately since it is included in Manual Nooter. To install Block Updates, Manual Nooter or OC/apps2SD support, flash the zips to the SD with recovery just like you did the ROM. If you flash Manual Nooter, it has gapps and Market with it so you must register them with Google. And you need root if you want to the OC and apps2SD support, plus you will need a program like SetCPU to adjust the processor.
You can get the modified 1.4.3 B&N stock ROM zip here, the modified Manual Nooter zip here, the modified OC/apps2SD zip here, and the modified Block Updates zip here (all four modified for verygreen SD installation).

I have done the partitioning on the sdcard so it now has the 4 partitions in it....the nook is running CWM 3.2.0.1 emmc recovery. I've downloaded all 4 zip files, but i only plan on putting the stock nook, and manual nooter (leap says it includes the update blocker) on it
Sent from my R800x using xda app-developers app
You need to update your emmc recovery to a newer version so that you can flash those zips from internal memory (emmc media). You will run into problems finding the files with 3.2.0.1 since you have to take your normal SD out and put your verygreen SD in.
So flash this zip:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=23537853
Then copy the downloaded files to emmc media, boot to the new CWM and select the files from internal memory and flash them to your inserted verygreen SD.
EDIT: I just updated my instructions in my tips to make that clearer. Thanks.

Im running the cwm you linked and i can now select them, my questionnow is: when it says install zip from sdcard i scroll down and select the choose zip from internal and it finds both zips....after i booted to cwm i inserted the verygreen sdcard, how will i know the stock nook will flash to the sdcard and not the internal?

I have built in safeguards to make sure that won't happen. If no SD is in the slot, it won't flash, if the SD in the slot is not formated with 4 partitions, it won't flash. And when it finally does flash, it is hard coded to go to SD. Flash away. First ROM then a little later after you have registered and let it finish loading books, the manual nooter.

It took me a very long time to download the books and I have a fast connection. I think B&N just pushes them out slow for stock. Other stuff downloads fast, like once you are rooted and you download apps from play store.

Brah....dang it...I messed up by accidently hitting the erase and deregister button.....it didn't seem to erase anything, but it did deregister it...would I have to remake the SD and then reflash the rom again? (Not that it is a big deal or time consuming to do lol)

I used ManualNooter for my nook. As I recently installed a bunch of apps and ebooks, I thought I should back up my device. I went to Rom Manager for back up which then brought me to CWM when it was done to reboot. When I reboot it was stuck in boot loop. I turned the nook, then back on and whenever i reboot i get black screen of death. I can boot to CWM by holding all three buttons down. I tried wiping data, factory reset, reinstalling nooter zip, yet every time I reboot, I get black screen of death. Can someone help me figure out how to fix this? Thx.

My computer no longer recognizes the Nook (I have an HP laptop running Windows 8). Prior to the black screen, the computer did detect the nook when plugged in with the USB cable. How can I now copy the zip file to flash through CWM recovery? I have version 3.2.0.1 installed? I don't understand why trying to make a back-up file through the ROM manager would cause such failure? Thanks for your help.
EDIT: Should I now be trying the verygreen method via SD card? Apologies for the panic.

Make a bootable CWM card as described in my item A10. Then copy the 1.4.3 rom zip downloaded from A15 to the card. Put the card in the Nook, boot to CWM and flash the ROM zip.
Sometimes files get corrupted when writing them to the Nook. Obviously that is what happened with ROM Manager.

What size SD card do I need? I tried copying the 1.4.3 rom zip (unzipped, used 7 zip to extract the other files) onto a 8 GB sandisc and a 16GB and both tell me the card does not have enough space. I've used Win32diskimager-v.07 (the link from manual nooter no longer works), I copied the CWM-5.5.04 image to the SD card. I had no trouble copying manual nooter onto the 8gb sandisc. I used a SD formatter program to format and wipe the disk before using it for this. Thanks.

I guess I should modify my instructions. The 1.4.3 zip is so large that you need to use the 6.0.1.2 version of the bootable CWM SD. It has a little more room for the zip. It does not matter which size card you start out with.

I'm back in business! It worked - whew! I had trouble with the 1.4.3 zip, so I used DizzyDen's 1.4.1. I was stuck in boot loop the first time I rebooted, then used the 5-6-7 partition fix zip, reinstalled the 1.4.1 zip and it worked like a charm. I also used the newer version of CWM you advised which was smaller in size, it's all on the 16gb SD card with no issue.
One last question, now that the stock rom is in order, am I safe to flash CM10? I'd prefer not to use manualnooter again as you said in a previous post, CM10 is leaps and bounds above nooter. If you think it's okay to flash, do I have to do the 8 count reset to fully wipe?
Many, many thanks for your clear, detailed instruction and patience!

When I was last working on this, I had my external hard drive plugged into the computer via the usb port. I was backing up the files that were on my micro sd card, I had a 16gb in my droid bionic, I swapped it with the 8 gb I had in the nook when I couldn't get the older version of CWM on the card. Now when I plug in my external hard drive, all I see are the win32 imaging files on it. I take it, this process formats over everything plugged into a usb port? I've lost all my kids photos and videos, I can cry I'm so mad at myself for letting this happen. I've tried the two laptops we have and I get the same list of files in the folders. I guess this is one of those mistakes you only make once.
Oh no! Yes, burning a card writes over everything. There are some utilities that may let you rescue your old files, but maybe not. I would set it aside till you find out. I think the free MiniTool Partition Wizard has some paid companion products that may help.
Edit: just reread your post. It does not write over everything plugged into the USB. You just made a mistake when you burned once and selected the external drive letter. The same solution applies. Find a disk partition repair utility.

Am I able to copy files to the SD card while it's running CM10? I wanted to copy some pdfs and ebub books to read and when I try to copy to the SD card it says the Nook is not responding or disconnected. I don't think this is a driver issue as I can see the Nook on my computer and can see the files stored either on internal storage or SD. When I'm in CM10 and go to file manager, I can only see what is on the SD card, I can't access any of my files that were on EMMC. That's fine, I have copies of my ebooks saved on my laptop, I just can't figure out how to read them now. Any thoughts?
Thanks.

You need to be a little more specific.
There are two methods to connect to your PC with CM10 using the USB cable, MTP and USB mass storage. They are selectable in settings. Go to settings, storage, menu and USB computer connection. MTP is default and shows the Nook as just devices in Windows Explorer with no drive letters. If you choose USB mass storage, they show as drive letters in Windows explorer. But they do not contain anything until you activate them by touching a button on your Nook. And the button does not show if Android degugging is activated in settings.
So that is why I say you need to be more specific.
You say you can't copy to the SD. What are you seeing on your PC, drive letters or just labels that say internal SD and sdcard? And describe a little more the errors.
The reason you can't see emmc with the file manager that comes with CM10 is by default it is in safe mode. You have to change a setting to get it in root mode. Either get a different file manager like the free Root Browser Lite or change the setting in the CM10 file manager. To change the setting, press menu while it is open and you will see three dots in the lower right. Touch that. Go to settings, general settings and access mode and change it from safe to root. Then you will be able to see emmc.

I think my quick reply didn't post. Anyway, thanks, again, for your help. When I went to transfer files from my external hard drive to the Nook, I was using the wrong lap top and then realized I had to update usb drivers which helped. I then followed your other steps to change settings, including safe to root, and I can now see all my files.
Can you recommend a file manager? The default one is a bit cumbersome.
Thanks again for everything.

The 5/4 nightly is CM10.1. The version you were running earlier was CM10. You should be able to just flash the 5/4 nightly with only wiping the dalvik-cache. No other wiping or partition zips. Since CM10.1 requires a newer gapps (20130301), you should flash that too.
Yes, I still use ADW, but only because I am used to it and do not want to try something new.

Is there any difference in performance running CM10.1 off emmc vs SD card which I'm presently doing with the April 7 nightly? I have some vague idea that I read a while back once you put CM10 on emmc you could no longer return to stock?
If I stay on SD card is there any harm in trying (I think the name is Dean) method to adjust internal partition for more room for apps? I've run out of room on SD card? Or is using Titanium to move files a safer alternative?
My kids are now using the Nook, I won an ASUS tablet from livinginkaos over at the Droidrzr forum. He had a give-away while fundraising for a root exploit bounty for JellyBean which Dan Rosenberg created. Method works using Linux Ubuntu, that forum is awesome. I was singing your praises to them. Android forums have the greatest support! Thx.

I have discovered an apparent reason for sporadic lag issues is the random library syncing. I want to freeze the app with Titanium.
What is the process just to get permanent root so I can use Titanium? I have the image card I used to install the Extras.zip to allow unknown sources. Can I use that for the process?
Update: After reading more, it is maybe too easy when rooted with 2.1 stock to alter the system and cause a stock reset. I wonder if something as simple as using Titanium to freeze the Library and other apps is enough to cause this? Perhaps just installing Titanium alone could as well....
Perhaps another option would be to start from scratch and install 10.1. Is there a way to install 10.1 and still let apps install to the internal storage?
The answer to the rooting question I think you figured out. It is possible to root, then make some changes while rooted, then disable root when finished. Then there is not a danger of inadvertently resetting later.
But I think that TB needs root to be able to freeze apps. Actually some system apps can be disabled in settings/applications without being rooted. It is the same as freezing in TB. And just freezing an app does not cause a reset.
If you want to install CM10.1 so that you use internal storage to store installed apps, use the Hybrid SD. You do not say whether you have an HD or HD+. There are different threads for each.

Then follow this procedure I just wrote for another user. It will install CM10.1 on internal memory and you can use an ordinary SD to store your media files.

You can actually quadruple boot. You can put two systems on emmc (like stock and CM10.1) and two systems on SD (CM7 and CM9) .

Is there a way to get the nook reader app from B&N to work on any rooted mod? I need it in order to read the book I had previously purchased and I don't want to dual boot. I just want the app to work. I keep getting an error say "SD Card Not Detected. The NOOK application needs an sdcard to function properly. Please verify that an sdcard is installed and mounted" even when I have an sdcard installed. Thanks in advance for any insight to this problem.

You can either use a SD card, or edit /system/etc/vold.fstab to use the second partition in the Nook internal memory as a SD card. To do the later, edit the file (e.g. using Root Browser, or doing sdb remount && sdb shell vi /system/etc/vold.fstab), then change sdcard0 to sdcard1, and sdcard1 to sdcard0, save the file, and reboot your Nook to get the second internal partition mounted as if it was the SD card.
I hope this helps

The error message makes it sound like you do not have your SD formatted properly. If it is not, then the app would not read it properly. Try formatting it in your PC using SDFormatter which you can get free on the web.
However, you are confusing me. That error message comes from the Android version of the nook app, not the stock version. Are you running something besides stock? If you are running something else, try CM7. It has a setting to allow the apps to use internal memory for those users that do not have a working SD.

I have tried using several different mods in CM7 even though I would prefer CM10. I want to be able to use the nook app without inserting a sd card if at all possible. I am a teacher and I am trying to create a class set of rooted NOOK so I can have better control over the using app from Google Play but they have books they need to access using the NOOK app.

Is there a option in TWRP that will do that before I install the rom?

No. But if you install CM7, there is a setting for it.
Edit: if you want to use apps without an SD, CM7 is your best bet. While you can hack CM10.1 to do the same thing, it is flacky. CM removed the setting in CM10.1 just because of that.
The setting is in cyanogenmod settings, something about allowing apps to use internal memory.

I got it working on CM7 but I really need it to work on CM10.1 in order for the other apps I need to work for my students.

Then do the edit the first responder told you to do. Edit vold.fstab.

It may be considered as flaky, but at least for me editing vold.fstab has been working fine consistently from CM9 onwards. And it works fine for me not just with CM, but also with mateorod's AOSP and ParanoidAndroid builds. Something I try to do every 2-3 months is to run FSTrim to balance the wear-leveling of the EMMC — not sure whether it really helps making things a bit snappier or it's just placebo effect
