Can your nook boot from SD card at all? If so use the repart.img from the stock1.4.2 file on the raywaldo site.

If the sd card is in I can get to cwm. But there it's no more space on the card to put a Rom. It seems like the nook os is missing.

Once you boot into cwm, you can remove sdcard and put another one with zip file.
Cwm runs in ram.

Can't find where ROMS on my SD Card are

Rooted and using TWRP recovery.
I know where the ROM is on my SD Card, I just can't get to it when I'm in TWRP. I can get there using Astro so I know its there, but those folders don't show up when in TWRP it seems like. I've fiddled with it for hours and can't find it, driving me crazy.
Going to try and take my SD Card out and download the ROM directly onto my phone and see if that works.

I believe with TWRP there is a selection for "mount" which allows you to search internal or external storage. Try switching it and see if you can find the ROM that way.

You need to mount the sdcard in the options in TWRP. Once you do that you will see the files

If you put the rom directly on the phone then it should show up.

Personally I never had to mess with mount. I just used the ".." link to keep going up a level until I got to the root, then drilled down into "sdcard2" YMMV

Help installing CM10

I'm having issues upgrading from CM9 to CM10...
I downloaded the zip file of the most recent CM10 experimental and when I try to install the zip in CWM recovery it says that no files were found. I can't seem to pull up any of my files on the internal sdcard.
I had no issues installing CM9 or any of the nightlies.
Any help would be greatly appreciated!

Is there anything I can do to check into this? I have never had any problems access my internal sd other than this issue...
Maybe you switched the mountpoints in CM9? Can you access your external SD card (if you have one) from the recovery?

I don't have an external SD. I have no problem accessing my internal SD when the phone is on but just not when I'm in recovery.

When I go into "choose zip from internal sdcard" I get the option to install emmcupdate.zip . What is this all about?

Just do it the hard way. I can't think of anything else. Flash a Samsung stock ROM, then check whether the same problem exists there.

What I do is create a file on the s/d card. I name it +Flash. Then whenever I download anything to flash .. It goes into that file.
When you go into recovery and look at your files .. the + makes it be the first file. Makes it easy to find.
Hope this helps.

You most likely have placed it on the external sd card. Check. If so, move it to internal.

Is this a new thing? I used to always put zips on my external and flash from there. Now mine is similar to the OP. Some roms I put on my external and CWM sees them no problem. Other times the folder is empty. If I go in and move the file back to the internal it shows right up. It was nice being able to dump the roms on the external which has more space than internal.
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I717 using xda premium
I have always used the internal. I use TWRP recovery. You can select internal or external sd card to view when flashing.
Before when using cwm, I never had to worry. Placed everything on internal and it was just there when I was ready to flash. You could always use a file app to move older roms
To your external to save space. Take a look at TWRP. Its very quick for Nandroid backups.

I second using TWRP; best Recovery program, imo. I had a few problems with CWM (even Touch version) back when I started flashing ROMs, but no problems with TWRP.
There's also an issue with the External SD listing coming up under the root emmc folder, rather than under Internal; can always check there for missing files stored on your External SD.

great that you got it working, i would recommend trying to s-off your phone just because... so flashing rom's and fixing problems if any happens in the future will be easier
yea I know, It looked pretty bleak for a while where i basically couldn't do anything with the phone,
I will look into s-off

Flashing from SD to internal drive

djd338 said:
Personally, I had trouble booting & running SD cards. I'm convinced it wasn't hardware but my noobness! Since then I've always loaded only to emmc. I also had trouble going directly & straight to CM10 roms from the B&N 1.4whatever OS.
So, looking for a recovery + rom that matched, I used Indirect's app to get cwm 5, then had no trouble loading a CM9 rom (all to emmc). Once CM9 was up & running good, I used Goo Manager to load an updated TWRP recovery suitable for CM10, then Cm10.1, etc. That's what worked for me & to this day I see no need to boot from SD's. Just me tho.

I'm currently running carbon ROM on my nook 8gb via SD card. If I was to download an internal version of a ROM would I be able to reboot to my twrp recovery on my SD card and somehow flash to the internal harddrive from there?

Alright. Once I flash to internal from my SD android I'll be able to just remove the SD card and run straight off the nook itself?

Yep, but once you flashed it will use the sdcard as default storage if you want to use the internal memory as default put this line in your build.prop under /system/build.prop (use root explorer or something like that)
persist.sys.vold.switchexternal 1
Paste it at the end of the file and you are done.

I've got a 16Gb SD card that I was trying to originally use but was having trouble setting up to do so. Could I just pop that in and use it for memory once I flash to internal? And also, if I was to back up my current build which is Carbon ROM, would I be able to restore to it once I flash to internal or would it not work since it was backed up through the SD build?

Once you change your recovery you must immediately make a backup using it. One recovery cannot access backups made by another recovery.
