[ADV][DEV][ZIP] Froyo on eMMC - Clockwork recovery ZIP - Nook Color Android Development

This method is depreciated. Please use cicada's ZIP.
Hi,
After a very polite discussion with members of this community. I've simply decided to go back to my life without XDA.
Sorry.
I'll leave you these files which work for sure. These can be flashed using IOMonster's rootpack.
Overlclocked kernel 1100mhz FOR FROYO ONLY you could try out, but this kernel hasn't been exhaustively tested: -Download flashable 1100-froyo-test-kernel-install.zip here. -Download flashable 1100-froyo-test-kernel-removal.zip here. Kernels originally posted by dalingrin, found here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=925451
In case anything goes wrong and your NC won't boot anymore: Flashable zip (to copy to root of sdcard):
-Download flashable repartition-boot-with-froyo.zip here.
-Download flashable repartition-boot-with-stock.zip here.
If you use stock-boot after having flashed froyo, it will not be enough to boot entirely, it will only show you "touch the futur screen". For it to boot completely, you'll have to format system and data, then use complete-restore-to-stock-1.0.1 after that, or install froyo-emmc again. This should only repair your boot (mmcblk0p1) partition, allowing your NC to boot again. ​
See 'Restore to stock' thread regarding restoring/flashable zip download.
Thank you for your support.
Have fun.
Sam

thank you greatly! ill work on this on the morning!

Thanks!!
How hard was it to create?
Any chance of making a flashable zip with the Customized Nookie Froyo 0.5.9 Image?
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=922324

Awesome!!!
@above: i agree, that would be useful

Gonna pick a nook color up today this looks great thanks for ur hard work.
One think can a guy just make a backup via cwr?

Well that's a question you should ask IOMonster. But one thing is sure, the sd's size (1gb) wont suffice for a total backup of the nook. And I'm not sure nandroids are totally stable yet..

Anything is possible. Actually, all you would need to do from now on to make a flashable "mod", would be to make an .img of your customized system (with dd), making sure you leave all private data out of it. And then copy it to my existing zip by replacing the existing /tmp/system.img. The script would do the rest.
Well that's if you don't need to copy anything to /data. In that later case script would need just a few more lines...
That's all..

I've restored from a CWM backup several times to replace a development image that was less than functional . As long as:
1) you only need to restore /boot, /data/ and /system
2) your new update .zip doesn't break CWM (doesn't replace uRecRam)
It should work fine.
Even if it does break CWM on install, IOMonsters SD should still work fine. Just some thoughts...

Can anyone place these files on a mirror? Can't d/l from work....blocked by IT. >=(

I'm trying to download the files but the website won't let me. It's stuck in loop.

Superb!
Thanks so much. I've been really looking forward to this.
Also, fyi, I had to use IE to download the image, didn't work with Chrome.

I got hung up trying to dd the blocks (mmcblk0p3), then device rebooted on its own...then got stuck in bootloop...pulled the sd card and shut down for 5 - 10 mintues.
turned on to see and it booted fine back to Auto-nootered Eclair....
Now just waiting to be able to download file....

So, I have a CWM backup image that I've successfully restored in the past, that should suffice right?
Also, is it actually necessary to use this bootable CWM or is it possible to install the zip directly from CWM on my device?

For those who has done this (emmc), is it yielding noticable improvement over SD cards? One of my chief complaints about the current Froyo build is the lag (opening gmail can take upwards of 2 mintues sometimes, among a host of other complaints. How is the responsiveness now?

It should also work with internal cw recovery. But then you have no way back without an sdcard, because cwr dosent boot on nookie yet.

So cwr doesn't work with nookie froyo yet? Does that mean that I can't flash a kernel without using the sdcard and in doing so loose all data because it will overwrite the boot partition? I think I'm confused

Anyone know how I can get google apps, or at least the Market, on this? Preferably without ADB, since it doesn't seem to cooperate with my system. Root explorer's easy enough.
I flashed with zip over Auto Nootered 1.0.1 and everything works fine now. But the issue is that I cannot access Clockwork Recovery any more. I tried Power + N button, also boot to recovery from Rom Manager but it simply reboots back to home screen.
I tried flashing via Rom Manager again. It shows that I am currently running Clockwork Recovery 3.0.0.5 but yet reboots to home screen. Without CWR, I cannot restore the backup I took. Please help.
Can you share how this is different from samuels version. His froyo is 0.2 with gapps. Not trying to be a smart alec...would just like to understand.

Ok. But the iomonster version is to be booted from an SD card, right? My nandroid backup is also on the sd card. I believe I should use a blank SD to create the CWR bootable card. So how can I boot CWR from sd and access the nandroid backup as well?

[UPDATE ZIP] Stock 1.2 update.zip flashable from CWM

I modified the official 1.2 update to allow CWM to flash them. You can use these to upgrade to 1.2 or to return to stock.
There are two files. One replaces CWM with the stock recovery (good for going back to stock). The other doesn't replace CWM (but will replace uboot).
Other than that they are identical to the update from B&N.
update-nc-stock-1.2-keepcwm-signed.zip
update-nc-stock-1.2-signed.zip
Please note neither one of these are rooted yet.
Just curious as to if this is rooted or just fixed to allow use of CWM?
Nevermind just read the full post!!
So just to make sure, I could use the one zip to return to full stock but with the 1.2 update? Also will this work if I have CM7 and CWM on my emmc? So reboot into CW, format \system and \data then flash the update-nc-stock-1.2-signed.zip, then Reboot. At that point, I should be 100% 1.2 stock, sound about right?
I thinking about returning to stock and just run CM7 for my SD if this is an options.
Thanks,
Derek.

Assuming you haven't fooked up any paritioning by using the "dual-boot" stuff you can return to 100% stock by doing the folllowing:
Download the update-nc-stock-1.2-signed.zip above
Flash the zip with CWM (either from emmc or sdcard)
Use CWM to factory reset the device (wipe /data and /cache)
Reboot into 100% stock froyo
If you have modified your partitions this will not work.
This won't work off of an sd right?
I'd like to modify this so it just installs to my dual boot partition.
I've done this before with flashing kernels, but there are more partitions here to take care of.
I figure if I'm going to change the updater script to mount the correct block partitions then I should also have it wipe /data and /cache on the secondary partition.
Any ideas on syntax?

Thanks
Once we have a rooted version I'll probably check it out for fun.

I guess I wasn't clear the first time: if I use this method, am I stuck with B&N's version of Froyo until someone figures out how to root this one, or can I just reflash CM7? And I'm not sure I understand the difference between both of the zips that nemith has produced.
In any case, thanks nemith - I always appreciate the work that the devs do!

If you dont like this, just boot into a bootable clockwork recovery and flash cm7 or whatever you want. You wont be stuck on this.
One zip removes Clockwork Recovery and puts the stock recovery back. The other leaves Clockwork Recovery intact.
I'd assume, leaving it intact allows you to flash back to any backups or any other Rom if incase you do not like the official build.
I'm at work so I'm unable to test it out.
Or you can always just use a bootsble SD with clockwork on it to reflash whatever ron or backup you have.

Any way you could make something would allow you to flash 1.2 onto a secondary parttion for those of us who are dual booters?
So Ive got this thing rooted but I for the life of me cannot get the market to work. I have the vending.apk and googleservicesframework.apk under /system/app but market will not show up in my app drawer on the stock or adw launcher. Under manage applications, market or googleservicesframework arent there either. Does the nook have other dependencies? If anyone with some experience could throw some suggestions my way. ADB isnt currently working without the driver. Ive added other apps that are showing up and working perfectly.

The device code will have changed and prevent market access. Try pulling the device code from a froyo device with market access like Droid X.

Titanium backup from the market does a good job of backing up apps and system data.
Until we get Clockwork Recovery going, I don't think there's a way to do an image style backup.

Well, thanks to buawks and nemith we have CWM working and it can fully back up your NT. I've even used the recovery to restore my device (accidently got stuck in a boot loop).
You can either make an sd card and boot into CWM from there or you can install it on the internal memory.

If I have my NT rooted and set up just the way I like it right now, how do I create a recovery image before taking the next steps being worked by AO, Indirect, nemith, and the other great developers?

Well since you have a custom recovery the only way you can get to stock is to use adamoitlers total wipe flash back to stock and root from there. You could try flashing some stock recovery but it is a bit risky IMO.

I'm not sure to be honest. Try flashing a different rom and see if you can boot.
You could also flash the zip for internal clockworkmod if you like, via the sdcard clockworkmod.

Thanks for the help thus far, but none of the above work. I also tried the repart.img from Raywaldo tutorial and it doesn't finish.I also tried AdamOutler wipe/ubunto method and it gets stuck at writing zeros to mlo. The roms seem to flash ok, but can't boot into it without a loop. I suspect partitions are messed up if someone can point me in the right direction. So it looks like TWRP caused this when reverting to cm7 from cm9 Thanka again

The first method worked for me, although I did flash a clean CM7 install instead of 1.4.2 at the end.
Also, you shouldn't need to make a.CWM sd card, since you can reach recovery.
Just download "acclaim_update.zip" from XDA and then go in and navigate to "updater_script" which is located in "META-INF/com/google/android/" edit the first two lines and where it says "blaze" change to "acclaim" on both lines and update your zip file or rezip it whatever you do and you can now flash it in CWM or TWRP.

I'd recommend getting something like notepad++ as notepad will not display the file very cleanly, and wordpad will add extra characters. Extract the file out of the zip, to say your desktop. Open it with notepad++. Edit what you like, save the file. Drag it back into the original place in the zip. Winrar will update the file in the zip. Make sure you extract the file though, if you try opening it directly from the zip, you're just going to be working on a temp copy of the file.
If you suspect that your partitions are messed up there are some threads about repartitioning. You can follow them up until you're supposed to start changing partitions to see if yours are the same as what their original ones were.
Can you boot the internal recovery still? I've seen a few posts about the CWM that come with CM7 and CM9 not being compatible with the other version. Perhaps try Indirect's Flasher.
Next time though, you should ask your question in a new thread since it's not really on topic with the OP and thread topic. Your question refered to a bootloop... The OP referred to returning to stock. By keeping the threads on topic to their content, it helps make searching easier for other people who may need the help.
Yes, notepadd++ --> On its menu, go to edit, and then to Eol Conversion to choose between :
windoze - cr/lf - od/oa ( hex )
unix - - lf - oa
mac - - cr - od
.
( of course ) we want the second choice...

When I do a TWRP backup (default settings) and I target my external SD card (64GB SanDisk microSD), the backup succeeds and I can go back to the main TWRP menu and verify that the backup was created in a new folder called 'TWRP' on the SD card. However, once I boot into the system and get past the unlock screen, that TWRP folder is deleted from the SD card along with the backup.
All of the other files on the SD card are untouched, just anything to do with TWRP is removed.
Any idea what could cause this? I searched the thread for my specific ROM with no luck regarding this issue.
I have this issue as well running the stock rom. I also have the 64 gb card. Near as I can tell something about the way TWRP is writing the files to the file system (exfat) android doesnt like and corrects which removes the files. If I pull the card out of the phone before booting android I can see the files on the PC. The work around I'm currently using is to mount an external USB storage to do my backup, then copying the backup to the SD card in android.

Hey there guys...its happening to me as well and its annoying because you cant rely in your backups!
Any solution or just that SD take out workaround? Its kinda dangerous because you can corrupt the SD by doing this often!
What version of twrp are you using?

I'm using the 2.8.2.0.
I noticed this happened when I updated to 2.8. I went back to 2.7.1 and its works fine again.

Ive heard but it happen that I never came across a situation where I needed it...due to that, Ive never even saw it! However, Ive heard about it and I know its such a powerful tool!
Ill take a loo at it as soon as I have some spare time! Would you mind telling me what are its main uses? Im kinda advances user-mod-wanna-be. So far, Ive just needed to use Fastboot, RSD and custom recoveries!
Cheers man!

I would say odins main use is for flashing stock tars after you get your phone stuck in brickloop after flashing something you shouldn't have :laugh:.......very useful tool I must say.

My solution for this error:
--Device S5 mini G800F
--TWRP 2.8.1
--MicroSD 64Gb
--TotalCommander for android instaled.
Step by Step:
1. Boot in recovery mode.
2. Create and save your backup into extSDCard (TWRP/backups folder).
* Example: extSDCard\TWRP\BACKUPS\14001308b6ffd4cc\2016-01-01--01-01-01 XXXXX.YYYYYYYYYYYYY
-- 2016-01-01--01-01-01 XXXXX.YYYYYYYYYYYYY = my last backup folder name created automatically by TWRP.
-- 2016-01-01--01-01-01 = backup date and time
-- XXXXX.YYYYYYYYYYYYY = phone and rom model/version
3. Open File Manager in TWRP and copy your backup folder (2016-01-01--01-01-01 XXXXX.YYYYYYYYYYYYY) from extSDCard to internal memory.
4. Restart your phone (system restart in twrp).
5. Open TotalCommander and navigate to extSDCard/backup folder (extSDCard\TWRP\BACKUPS\14001308b6ffd4cc)
6. Create new folder and rename it with your backup name folder. *Example: extSDCard\TWRP\BACKUPS\14001308b6ffd4cc\2016-01-01--01-01-01 XXXXX.YYYYYYYYYYYYY
7. Go to internal memory (copied backup folder) and copy all files to created folder in step 6.
8. Restart in recovery mode, run file manager in TWRP and delete backup folder from internal memory.
9. Restart your phone (system restart in twrp).
10. Finish.
