[Q] Nook Tablet rebooting by itself on recovery mode - Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet

Hello,
First of all, if I seem to be rude or impolite, it's just because of my bad english, I apologize in advance...
I have bought a nook tablet 8G, cyanogenmod (android 4.3.1), as it uses to bootloop very often (and as it needs a simple wipe of data but a re-installation of the apk) every 4 or 5 boots, I thought it would be a great idea to re install a new cyanogen...I thought it would be as easy as on my samsung galaxy
But now, the only thing that it does is to reboot on recovery mode...When I try to power it on, it starts just like if it is ok, then it boots on TWRP mode (my CWM on galaxy seems to be more friendly). I have tried again to reinstall my rom, but it is said that it is "unable to mount data1".
I have also done a wipe dalvik cache but I prefer to stop and ask for further information before I do serious damages
I have also tried to install "flashable fix bootloop" but no way
Thank you very much !

Have you tried re-installing using SD-based CWM (e.g., see http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=51377882&postcount=163 or http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=50828000&postcount=1)?

Hello Digixmax,
Thank you very much for your answer.
Before asking, I have searched and I saw this post http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2692403, and I am very happy to have the opportunity to be helped by the one who posted it !
I haven't tried it because there are some parts that I don't understand very well but now I'm gonna try :fingers-crossed:
- I have a 32g sd card that I would like to use for my apk, shall I use it to install CM11 or shall I buy a new one ? Will a 2G sd card be sufficient ?
- What does "set the partition ID type for the partition to 0x0C FAT32 LBA and set its Active flag" mean ? To set = let it free ? "Set its Active flag", I have no idea of what it means, will I understand by doing the manipulation ?
- For the second part, I have to download next u-boot.bin and flashing_boot.img in boot.zip from https://www.mediafire.com/folder/xjwc1a482a6ll/Nook_Tablet but I don't know wich one to choose.
What does MLO means ?
For the other points, I think it will be ok.
Oh...Is it necessary to intall CM10 before upgrading to CM11 ?
Thank you very much Digixmax, I am sorry to bother you with such stupid questions

You can just use existing card.

It should be sufficient for installing CM.

You should see menu for partition type/flag settings when you're in a disk partition tool.

No. See http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2692403 for pointers/tips on installing CM11.

Thanks a lot, Digixmax, I'm gonna do this tomorrow (I've to go to work now).
I will tell you what the situation is as soon as I finish.

Since your NT is already on CM, you might want to try first the method to update from an older CM version to CM11 outlined at http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2670589.

Howdy everyone! It's thecubed / IOMonster again!
This time, I'm back with a MONSTER release
For all those asking "What's a Monster RootPack"? It's simple!
It's a SD card image containing a bootable Clockwork Recovery 3.0.0.5 and a set of .zip files that allow you to root your device and install Google Apps (market, gmail, youtube, etc).
All you have to do is read the instructions-- it explains the rest.
Please be sure to read ALL the instructions first before using this utility!
All the instructions can be found here: http://legacyschool.us.to/nookdev/clockwork/rootpack-instructions.html
Be sure to read through them!

I'm not one for huge forum posts, so keeping all the instructions on one URL helps me stay organized
Downloads:
Download the RootPack here: http://legacyschool.us.to/nookdev/clockwork/0.7/128mb_rootpack-0.7.tar.gz [mirror]
Or
Download a bootable Clockwork SD card (128mb, 1gb, 2gb, 4gb, 8gb) here:
http://legacyschool.us.to/nookdev/clockwork/0.7/ [mirrors]

Updated Zip Files:
Use these if you already have a bootable SD, or even CWM installed on your device:

Want to build your own CWM SD cards?
Download this: http://legacyschool.us.to/nookdev/clockwork/0.7/buildenv-0.7.tar.gz
It's a complete build environment for making bootable SD cards. Included are the source files for 128mb, 1gb, 2gb, 4gb, and 8gb SD cards.
Click to expand...

Updates:
Version 0.7
New build environment!
New CWR sizes, rootpack reduced to 128mb image. (We now have 128mb, 1gb, 2gb, 4gb, and 8gb images!)
1.1 Rooting and Google Apps support! (thanks D3cad3nc3!)
FIXED: backup/restore from CWM now works correctly!
Version 0.5
Well, packages.xml is in /data/system, not /system .. oops.
Release of 128mb bootable Clockwork SD card also
Adds block-1.1.zip and unblock-1.1.zip to block the updates the easy way!
Version 0.4r2
Bugfixes. Lots of 'em.
Version 0.4
Fix root.zip and googleapps.zip permissions problems (/data/app and /system/app DO have different owners and permissions)
Bootable CWM base: No change; version bumped to 0.4 just because.
Version 0.3
Update to most recent Clockwork Recovery 3.0.0.5 build (should have working backup/restore, and defaults to ext2/ext3 support instead of ext4)
Fixes root.zip and googleapps.zip bugs (can't believe I forgot a semicolon!)
Updates installclockwork.zip to latest Clockwork Recovery build supporting ext2/3
Version 0.2
Initial public beta release

This brings me to my final point: this rootpack has been tested on my device, but I'm sure there are still bugs! If you want a time-tested method for rooting your device, stick with AutoNooter for the time being.
BUT! I really need testers! If you'd like to test this, please let me know.
Questions/comments welcome!
woot! thanks iomonster! this will make my tinkering much easier, mwahahahaha!
CWR works beautifully booting from SDCard, you sir are the man of the hour I shall email you two internets!
However, I do not see the zip files you refer too (Does not really matter that much as by itself its amazing!)

The real credits go to the awesome dudes of ClockworkMod, nemith on IRC, FatTire on IRC, [mbm] on IRC, and a LONG list of other people that I am soon to credit with a rather large section in my instructions
Glad it helps!
EDIT: The zips are only in the rootpack_1gb.tar.gz -- they're actually in the sd image. Clockwork_1gb.tar.gz is just a bootable clockwork, for the people who just want a platform without any additions (and a speedy download! the rootpack is 24mb, whereas the clockwork card is only 8mb)
yeah, ive been too preoccupied with work to hop on IRC lately , i need to get my butt back in there... this weekend for sure.

something is up with the img file for the rootpack, it claims not enough space on my 2gb card and my 16gb card... cwr only img seems to be fine.. just a heads up
I take it back.... my work laptop is just a POS, my thinkpad does it just fine! whatever.... so much for Dell!

How big did it decompress to be? It should only be around 900MB... unless I accidentally compressed it wrong somehow...
Seems to decompress fine for me.. 941-ish MB.. should fit just fine on any SD 1GB or larger...
What If You're Already Rooted..
Can this be done or (groans mightily) do we have to revert all the way back to stock?
Ok, I followed the directions exactly, and the device went into a boot loop. It installed the Root, then tried to install the googleapps.zip and received an error 6. Tried rebooting and running the googleapps.zip again, same error.
Ultimately, I used the AutoNooter process and it worked perfectly.

Thank you for your feedback! I'll be sure to check out why the device was bootlooping.
As for the error 6, that'll be interesting to track down.. it's probably a missing semicolon somewhere haha.
One question-- when it was bootlooping, did you see the new boot animation? or did it just go to the "touch the future of reading" to the "n" screen and over and over again?
Well this is embarrassing! I forgot to include the modified ramdisk in the root.zip... your device started bootlooping because I renamed the ramdisk, but forgot to copy the new one in place! Gah! Oops!
This, sir, is amazing!!!!

partition tool questions, installing to the internal device...questions from the noob

Thanks everyone, i bought a 16bg nook tablet (for the 1gb ram) and booted from the SD successfully. but now have a couple more questions....
1) partitioning, i get, its easy in gparted or the windows manager, but for the life of me i do not see a quick guide on how to partition *correctly*. i see 5 partitions on the sd card, and the guide says to expand 4... but it wont let me. i have not tried gparted yet, but i assume if i cant expanded it now (in windows) that i am doing something wrong and will just bork it up in gparted. so.... any links to working partition guides ?
fyi, the partition tool in cm7 in the "cm7 settings" only gave me the option of "512 megs"... so not sure.. but i think the installer made the wrong partition sizes ? dunno... im new and assuming alot based on alot of windows crap and limited linux interactions...
2) installing TOO the device itself: in the one guide above it does not mention rooting, so i assume when you boot to cm7 off a sd, and then go to "install image" that it will root, lay down the new image and all is well... am i correct in that assumption?
3) recovery, i know i will kill the install eventually. im the kind of guy to tinkers and has to re-install windows and backtrack on a regular basis. what i have not seen is how to restore to factory. is it something like my htc glacier? like this link implies ? http://nooktalk.net/nook-faq/nookco...-how-do-i-do-a-hard-reset-system-restore.html
4) if i unplug the usb cable.... i no longer boot into cm7 on the stick... is there a way to not have this happen aside from writing over the image ?
thank you all for your patience!

[Q] NT 16GB always boot to Recovery Mode only

Hello,
I've searched many topics but still didn't work
My NT 16GB worked good till today. Today I want to flash a new ROM (CM10.1 rc5).
I though I made a mistake from here: from ROM Manager, I flashed the CWM to 6.0, but I might flash with Nook Color version :crying: and from this time, my NT is ALWAYS boot into recovery mode.
- I tried press Power and N button or 8 times fail reboots but it still boot into recovery
- I tried flash new ROM from sd card, and the status is shown Installing Update.... and then it shown Install from sd card completed!!! There was no any notification more (as usual). And after "completed" by this way, reboot and still went into recovery mode again
- I also tried flash new cwm version 6.0.x, wipe data, format system, data,.... and flash ROM again from sdcard but still didnt work.
- I also tried reset to factory default http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1663836 but it still boot into CWM again and again.
- and follow many topics on google search but still no luck
please anyone can give me a hint, let me see the way to escape the recovery screen :crying::crying: thank you so much!
I want to flash a new ROM, a fresh tablet to make a gift for my dad on father's day, but it is brick :crying::crying::crying:
I think using ROM manager to flash recovery may not work with our device (I may be wrong) but we don't have an official build of CWM.
Regardless.... Do you have adb set up? If so, does it recognize your nt?

Ok, no big deal yet. Lets try the following.
First you are going to need an extra SD card, one greater than 2G. Go to this thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=21895025&postcount=14 and follow the instructions. This will give you the files and show you how to make a CWM bootable SD card (ignore all the steps about rooting your device in this thread for now). Note that this will repartition your SD card, so you will not be able to use is for much else unless you re-repartition it yourself.
To tell if this is successful or not, note the version of CWM you are now booting into, I am guessing it will be 6.0.3.1 (newest version) since you tried getting this from Rom Manager. If it is booting from SD card it should show up as version 5.0.x.x (I don't remember the exact version but it is older).
If you got it to boot from SD card then lets pull an updated version of CWM from this site http://goo.im/devs/succulent/acclaim/recovery The older version of CWM may not work well with CM10.1. try CWM 6.0.2.9, make sure you download the flashable CWM zip and not the image file.
OK now you will need to put this zip file onto your SD card - there should be just enough room left for it, or you could put it onto a 2nd SD card (easier) Note: while in recovery you can take the bootable SD card out of your NT. Go ahead and flash the CWM zip. You should now have a working recovery. At this point try flashing a ROM of your choice.
Good Luck

Hello DavDic,
Thank you for your help,
I follow your link and I success to boot from SD card, and CWM version is 5.0.5, then I success install the update.zip too, unfortunately after removing the sd card and reboot, it still boot to CWM version 6.0.2.9 - this is the version that I flash from ROM Manager before my NT is bricked (I flashed wrong device when I choose Nook Color in Rom Manager)
So I try to reboot again from sdcard, cwm version 5.0.5, then flash new CM10.1 ROM, and reboot and still go to CWM 6.0.2.9
and again, I boot from sdcard, cwm version 5.0.5, flash to new cwm version 6.0.2.9, flash new ROM and still boot to CWM screen
So, I can create and boot from a Sdcard, But can not boot to OS, always go to cwm 6.0.2.9 screen (that I think the wrong file since I flash from Nook Color file ). Thank you!

I think your problem most likely has to do with BCB/BootCnt not getting reset properly, as described at http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=21381141&postcount=1.
If so, the easiest way of resetting these files is to flash Succulent's flashable_fix_bootloop.zip at his repo http://goo.im/devs/succulent/acclaim/recovery.

You should have an adb connection then. Before you jump into the total wipe attempt, try getting an adb connection. Use this first and see if it works http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=36650082&postcount=171
You will need the driver files for this though, let me know if you don't have them.

@digixmax, I am at work and don't have an NT in front of me, do you remember which partition the recovery is in. I wanted OP to see if those two files were even there. He may have gotten rid of them completely inadvertently.

These two files are in the /bootdata partition (see http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=37515697&postcount=31 for a list of the NT partitions and their content).
But if OP's flashing Succulent's flashable_fix_bootloop.zip (which basically re-install a fresh copy of these two files) didn't fix the problem then he might have wiped out some other critical components of the system.
I follow Adam's guide, unbrick my NT, and then flash new CM10.1 ROM perfectly.
Thank you again DavDoc and digixmax for helping me so much! :good:
Glad you got it working again

I have followed the directions to a T (several several times) and everytime I turn on my Nook it goes to the cyanoboot screen and goes to (SDC) LOADING BOOT and is stuck there, or if I hold the N before it get to it it will allow me to choose my boot option (I've tried the SDC recovery to use automatic partition zip provided on iamafanof's wordpress site; please note I have tried it with manually partitioning, and just leaving image as is and same results).
I have did a complete factory restore via the repart.img method, tried different SDC image versions, bought a new SD card just to make sure it wasn't the card.
The weird thing is I can create a CM7 SD card and it loads fine (so I don't think its the SD Card).
I am at witts end with this; I work in technology as a career (on a bit diff side) and this thing is driving me nuts not working.
I have tried booting tethered as well; the only thing that may be different is that I bought this used and it has an aftermarked (Griffin) charger.
What really sucks was I was originally thought I bought a NC b/c I heard it was easier to create a bootable SDC and found out I had a microphone
Can someone recommend a next approach? The only other thing I could think of was to try the alt boot files on "iamafanof" wordpress site but the links are dead.
I don't care if its 10.1 or 10; just really interested in Android 4.0 period.
Also this Nook was 1.4.3 when I first tried to boot from SD; since then I went through process above and now is 1.4.0 factory reset.
I have looked through the forums EVERYWHERE and I decided to join here to get help - thanks in advance!
I hdon't know why this happens, but just to be clear, have you tried Iamafanof's ready-made CM10 bootbale sd? http://iamafanof.wordpress.com/2012/11/18/cm10-0-jellybean-sdcard-img-for-nook-tablet/
If you decide to install CM10 internally this image can be used as a bootable CWM card even if you don't want to run CM10 from it.
And FWIW, why does it suck that you got a Tablet instead of a NC? The Tablet is so much better, and certainly not any harder to mod.

Well guess it doesn't suck considering I payed 50 for a better tablet, I am just annoyed with it at this point. Yes I did, I formatted a SDC and burned that image to it after unzipping ( cm-10-20121231-NOOKTABLET-acclaim-HD-SDC-img.rar ) as well as other versions and they don't work even if I don't mess with partition tables. My only guess is that the boot files in the boot 1st partition of the image aren't compatible with my device which could be explained since I'm sure mine is a late model ( but why does CW7 work ? )
At this point I wonder if its possible to use the CW7 SDC and just copy gapps and the 10.1 Rom over. I'm extremely new at this so hopefully that isn't a stupid idea.
I do want to stay away from rooting internal for various reasons.
Any ideas ?

Which direction and which ROM zip file did you try to use?

I'd suggest you try flashing flash_kernel_acclaim_30MAR2013_HD_SDC.zip at http://iamafanof.wordpress.com/2013/02/18/cm10-1-jellybean-android-4-2-2-for-nook-tablet-0218/ (under heading "Flash this if your NT doesn’t boot newer kernel" in SDC section).

That's for if your doing the internal root though right ? I don't want to do that. I listed above one of the exact zip files I tried, I've tried several of them ( the pre done SDC images). And none of them will boot past cynogenmod .

The version of the kernel fix that I referenced is for SD-based ROM (the file name contains the "SDC" string).

Ok I now see it (flash_kernel_acclaim_30MAR2013_HD_SDC.zip) but how do I flash it if I can't boot into SDC Recovery from the Cynogenmod screen? Does it modify internal ROM - can I put it on a blank SD Card or on the CM7 and go into recovery?
Sorry if this is a noob question.
Well I've now tried it manually > forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2098419
and I get stuck at the same place (booting into SDC Recovery in steps).
I have ruled out it being the SD card (unless I some how managed to get two bad ones that still boot into CM7).

Did you extract and copy to SD the two files boot.img and recovery.img as prescribed in step #6 of http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=36685310&postcount=1?

Yes I did. I have another larger flash drive coming in the mail, I do not think its the flash drive though. No one else has ever had this issue? CM7 works fine, I may try to boot into CM9 later this weekend.
Just to clarify I have done manual method and burned image, they boot to the cynogenmod boot menu and if I pick SDC anything it just hangs there.
I almost want to say I don't think it's cynogenmod bc I can choose internal boot from it and it boots into nook fine

This so odd! It seams like there is something wrong woth the boot section on your sd, but I don't see how that could be the problem if indeed you have tried ready-made images that we know work for "everyone else"!
Clutching at straws here, but have you tried Iamafanof's readymade CM10.1 image as well? http://iamafanof.wordpress.com/2013...-1-jellybean-sdcard-img-for-nook-tablet-0110/ (I'm guessing you have, but like I said, clutching at straws...)

If you pick SDC Recovery from Cyanoboot menu it should say "loading SDC recovery" but it will take some time (up to between 1-2 min) before the CWM menu appears. Same thing with SDC Boot: it will take a bit of time before you see its boot animation. But neither should not take more than a couple of minutes to appear.
Also, for the manual method I'd suggest checking to make sure that boot.img and recovery.img on the SDcard /boot partition are not corrupted in the process of copying them to SDcard.

I am about 95% sure I have; I will try it again just to make sure; I tried several different versions of the image for 10.0 and 10.1 as well as the manual methods for both thinking it may be the build.
I will try to boot CM9.X and see if it works since 7 works. Really strange that no one else seems to have the issue.
In addition, I have left it well over 1-2 minutes at the cynogenmod screen and it never boots into CWM or the image (depending on boot option I pick).
So quick update.
I tried building a CM9 card and I got Cynogenmod to boot into SDC recovery (maybe I can use the same boot.img file?) However when trying to boot into SDC (after installing gapps.zip / ROM.zip) it reboots and boots into the normal INT nook.
Granite I may have messed something up with the process since I only did it once; but atleast I got past Cynogenmod screen.
Followed these directions and used these files:
http://iamafanof.wordpress.com/2012/11/11/how-to-guide-bootable-cm7cm9cm10-sdcard-for-nook-tablet/
ive had similar issues , one thing that hit me was that my downloads were incomplete . when you download the images of cm 10.X verify the file size vs the download page stated size and make sure that your downloads are complete. also i would try re downloading them all over again thats what i had to do , and follow the instructions to the dot but give us a link so we can see which ones your reading too , ive learned alot in the past three weeks of non stop hacking and modding on my tablet, its bricked itself three times so far and ive been forced to un brick it ,
the reason why i said that is , sometimes i get so worked up and over whelmed, take a five minuet break and go to the fridge and grab a drink and dont think about this for five minuets , clear your head and calm down then look back at the work you have already completed and examine it step by step fresh , you prob just missed one little detail ,
"it reboots and boots into the normal INT nook. "
if upon reboot it goes to nook , hold power button until its off , then hit power to turn it on , once N shows up hit the N button on the tablet if you have CWM installed to internal , this is like a short cut key to force it to boot to sdc , OR with tablet completely powered off plug in charger cable , it should turn tablet on ,and with cable inserted it should boot to sd card first , if it takes a while then goes to nook OS your sd card is incorrect ,
checked your link this isnt the one i used , i used this link
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2056626 yes its for 10.0 but once its installed internally you can connect to wifi and update to 10.1.2 4.2.2 in software on device , just remember to get the right Gapps before hand
forwarning , dont play with the touch screen firmware editor without reading , if you do pm me ill tell you how i crash coursed through that and how to fix it once you break that too lols 10 point is nice though
SD card version works nice too

First, make sure to have rom zip (badadroid v4.x) on SDcard OR on bada user partition and the good zImage (the zImage given with the rom, inside the zip) on bada user partition. If this is done, flash FOTA and Bootfiles (for s8530, not s8500) from Badadroid thread. once done, you should be able to access recovery mode. From recovery mode, you just have to choose "flash zip/flash zip from sdcard0 or sdcard1 (if you choose bada user partition fo ROM zip), wait the flashing to be done, and reboot holding call. Android should boot.
(I assumed you tried to flash badadroid, and not another rom, instructions may differ)

BUX is old and not allowed on XDA, but it offer good perf.
Badadroid is stable and run good but can't handle lot of apps in background (such as Gapps).

Best for games is either BUX, Zendrokat on ICZen, depending on the game, not Badadroid (even if all these are based on Badadroid team work.)
