Flashing from SD to internal drive - Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet

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.

Question About Recoveries

I have 5.5.0.4 on a micro SD and 6.0.1.3 internal via the flashable recovery in the SGT 7 + CM 10 post. The 6.0.1.3 has crashed on two different nandroid backups and so far appears to be ok on restore. The Micro SD recovery 5.5.0.4 has never crashed. Should I reflash 6.0.1.3 or just keep using the micro SD recovery?
Thanks,
Bill

I say go with whatever works best right now. I've been using the first ever CWM released for the NT since it was released and have had no problems. The only reason you'd really ever have to use a newer version is some users have reported flashing CM10 only works in the 6.x.x.x CWM versions.

I would go twrp 2.2.2.1 ext and leave 6.0.1.3 as it is :thumbup:

Agreed! I've been using TWRP (version 2.1.4, though) for a few months, and it hasn't ever had a single hiccough. It's flashed every ROM I've thrown at it without problems -- it's probably one of the most bullet-proof pieces of software I've ever used on a mobile device...

I also have been using the original CWM and have had no problems. I'm currently on CM10.

Hey Nikkie,
did you use the original CWM to flash the 3.x kernel, too?

i must of got on the wrong board, i have the nook color, is there a similar thread for nook color
thanks
Probably but I'd suggest getting your fundamental understandings down first. Cwm is a custom recovery; the recovery is a completely separate partition on any device and that's why you can't just install an app. You could possibly find an app like ROM manager that you could install and from there flash CWM to the recovery partition.

Help! Accidentally erased my Nook's internal SD card instead of my removable one!

I'm currently running Cyanogen Mod 10.1 but I accidentally erased my internal storage. I'd like to go back to stock but I have nothing to go back to.
Any ideas?

Use the repart.img from here. http://raywaldo.com/2012/06/how-to-un-brick-a-nook-tablet-8gb-or-16gb/
Write It to an SD card. It will return your nook to stock.
When you say internal storage did you delete all your partitions?
I accidentally formatted the internal storage when I was trying to format my removable sd card so I suppose so.

I'm pretty sure all you erased was the user partition, so no real damage done.
Like suggested, use the repart.img and your'e back to "out-of-the-box" nice and clean Nook Tablet.

Do you have a working sd card. TWRP will see external as well as internal storage. Place sd card into computer , download rom onto card, place back into your galaxy then boot back into recovery and flash from sd card.

If you have a rom in your computer you can adb sideload from recovery and will flash.
Probably too late tho since you replied 4 hours ago lol

Returning to stock ics from cm10.2

After trying cm10.2 I decided to go back to ICS, it appears that I now have two lots of directories some in root and others in 0 directory.
Is there a way I can use Odin to reformat and put all back in its place? Di I need a PID file to repartition back to ICS partitions.

No, your SD card is messed up due to the jb 4.2+ file system. If you don't wanna waste time moving them to the correct places, backup what you need to your computer and format your SD card in cwm recovery. If you do not want to format, then move all your files out of the /0 folder to /data/media(which is the SD card partition), i.e. /data/media/0/blabla to /data/media/blabla.

Thannks for your help. I ended up formating all, using Odin to reflash stock, reinstalled root and cwm then used my previus backup.
Thanks for your quick response.
