Hi,
Hope someone can help, about this problem. But I think all it's comes down to now is getting ADB access via Amon_RA recovery rom, as I've tried everything I can do... link to previous post here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=642468
I'm running Window 7 Pro x64, previously the ADB was working, but after setting up some ext partition option accidentaly, (I think that it's linked to that), i've tried all options I know of by trying to manually install the drivers and removing them completely etc...
Main points, I can still access recovery image, and also the bootloader. I've succesfully flashed custom roms etc... before. And phone does not boot to rom(that's because I think it didn't install correctly, not sure)
So, i'm sort of lost now, just wondering if any developers here would kindly help or put me out my misery!
re partition your ext(2/3 for Eris base rom) ext4 might not work on Eris.
if you still facing problem remove the swap & only remain the ext partition for A2SD.
edit: and please update to v1.6.2 for the recovery***
Thanks for you response but I can't do anything within the recovery image, some options keep saying please use adb to carry out the process, but I can't get adb to detect on the phone anymore. Also I can't update the latest recovery image, as i'd need adb access....
I can't see why this is happening... perhaps its the SD card that's messed up? I could repartiotion using linux using gparted or something, but I don't know how the Hero set's up the partion.
When I try to recover using nandroid I get messages like unable to mount E:SDCARD etc...
Any clues?
did you do a dalvik wipe? y not try remove the ext partition & try restore previous nandroid?
I busted my Nook Tablet, tried a hundred different things to fix it, and was about to give up, when I finally found the solution. This is my story.
Seriously, though, this forum has been a huge help to me, and I'm posting this in the hope that it will help someone.
First, a little background on me. I'm a software developer, and I've even contributed a bit to the development of the gingerbread-based CM7 for the Droid X. So I know a bit about Android, but I don't pretend to understand everything, especially on the Nook Tablet. That will become clear as you read the rest of this because I can't really explain some of the things I experienced.
Using several of the helpful guides here, I successfully booted ClockwordMod Recovery off an SD card, rooted my tablet, and installed the CM7 alpha (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1481826). Since booting CWM off the SD worked so well, I didn't feel the need to install it internally. It was a beautiful thing.
By the way, in order to boot CWM from an SD card your tablet must be plugged into USB! At least that has been my experience, and it hasn't always been made 100% clear.
Then, I bought a new SD card - the one I used originally was borrowed from another device. The new one was 16 gig. I wanted to make sure I could still use it to boot into CWM, so I started out as before by writing the image found at
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1488035 to my SD card using Win32DiskImager.exe, which I acquired from http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=21895025&postcount=14. But this repartitioned my 16 gig SD card down to 2 gig, so I used gparted in a Ubuntu VM to resize the partition to 16 gig.
I had all sorts of trouble getting into CWM with this new SD card. I don't really know why. Maybe the partition resizing was an issue, I'm not sure. But after lots of attempts, including plenty of failed boots, I started getting the dreaded black screen saying, "Please restart your device and try again. If you encounter the same issue, please contact customer service or visit: nook.com/tablet/support." I couldn't boot up CM7 anymore.
At this point I switched back to my previous SD card, plugged in the USB cable, and was thankfully able to boot into CWM. I tried the usually stuff. Reset data. Reinstalled CM7. Restored the backup of the factory ROM before I installed CM7. Nothing worked, I always got the "please restart" screen. Then I tried the 8 failed boots method to restore the factory state. It wouldn't go into the restore mode, just the same garbage again. At this point I figured I had really and truly bricked my device. This thread (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1397262) describing a similar problem didn't give my any confidence.
But since I could get into CWM, I realized I should at least be able to get into a shell via ADB and have a look around. Getting ADB working was a challenge, but eventually this post (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1363652), installing the USB driver attached to this one (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1354487), and adding the necessary line to adb_usb.ini (see the runmefirst.bat in the previous link) got me up and running with an adb shell.
I suspected my problem had something to do with triggering factory reset mode with so many failed boots, and somehow that factory reset mode was broken. With that in mind, I eventually stumbled upon this post (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1444630). I use CWM to mount /bootdata, logged in from my computer with "adb shell", and issued the dd commands the post described to reset the BootCnt and BCB files. I had to remount the bootdata partition read/write with "mount -o rw,remount /bootdata". If you do this once and still get a "Read-only file system" error when you do the dd command, just try the mount command again. I don't pretend to totally understand why that would be necessary, but it seemed to be necessary for me.
The first time I tried this and rebooted, I still got the same "Please restart your device error." It took me a couple of tries to figure out that I had to issue these commands and then remove the SD card before rebooting. It seemed as if booting from the SD card somehow re-poisoned the device so that even once I removed it I was still in a bad state.
Once I did this my device booted back into CM7. I shut it down, used the 8 failed boots method, and was able to reset to factory successfully. So apparently I was in some sort of badd BootCnt/BCB state, but it wasn't just the regular 8 failed boots state. I'd love to hear an explanation of why this might be, if anyone knows.
TL;DR: if you get a "Please restart your device and try again" error and nothing seems to fix it, try this:
1. Boot into CWM off an SD card
2. Mount /bootdata via CWM
3. Log in from your computer using "adb shell"
4. mount -o rw,remount /bootdata
5. dd if=/dev/zero of=/bootdata/BootCnt bs=1 count=4
6. dd if=/dev/zero of=/bootdata/BCB bs=1 count=1088
7. Remove SD card
8. Reboot
Thanks Kring789 so much, i have a same problem like you. I do step by step as you wrote, but at step 4, i have a error message from adb shell "remount /bootdata
/sbin/sh: remount: not found". And i can't reset my nook to factory default, it still display "Please restart your device and try again". Help me!

Can you copy/paste the exact command-line you used? It sounds like you might have a space somewhere it doesn't belong, or something like that.
Yes, i copied command-line from your first post. I don't understand my nook tablet. It'll lost all the data and program that i have installed after i reboot it. It keep the data and program 2 months ago. I have copied some mp3 songs to internal card, after reboot it, all of songs disappear. I bought it from internet so i can't know what happened to it.

If I am reading your comment correctly, it looks like you're using the wrong command: typing 'remount' instead of 'mount', is that correct?
Yes, "mount -o rw,remount /bootdata" is one command, not two commands separated by a comma.

Paste your entire adb shell session in here and let me take a look. Also, did you remember to remove your SD card before rebooting?
NT8 will not boot except via SD
Thank you so much for posting this.
I have the 8gb model NT and (mistakenly) tried to flash CWM & CM7a to the EMMC of my tablet. At that time, there were no warnings about how it would brick the NT8.
Now, my tablet will not boot to ANYTHING on the internal memory. I do NOT get the warnings that you mention - or even a flash of light. No matter how I try to boot it (with or without cable, with or without the Nook button) or how long I hold the buttons down, it still remains with a BLACK SCREEN.
However, the SDCard will boot properly. I followed your instructions in the O.P. precisely and I did NOT receive any errors. However, it still will not boot internally.
I then tried Veronica's process to flash CM9 to the internal (which is supposed to work on NT8). The flash process (via SD/CWM) went properly and I did not receive any errors. However, I still cannot get anything to boot (except my SDCards).
If I put my CM7a (bootable) SDCard into the NT8, it boots and runs great! Likewise meghd00t's recovery/CWM sdcard boots and runs properly.
I can do ADB & FASTBOOT and I have even done the dd to download my partitions (for backup) and then dd copies from online. Still no joy.
However, even after dd'ing p5, ADB still reports my TRUE serial number? It seems that the dd to part5 did not take?
The only other thing that I have found, that seems significant, is the fact that when I am in CWM, I cannot mount the EMMC. I can ADB/shell into the device but that did not allow me to mount the emmc either.
Any ideas? How can I force the device to mount the emmc?
Unbrick & return NT8 to STOCK
This process did NOT clear my Nook Tablet (8GB). Neither did any of the other (previously existing) methods clear it. It was bricked and would ONLY boot with a bootable SDCard. Otherwise, it remained totally black.
However, Meghd00t's recovery SDCard did the trick. It should work for either NT8 or NT16 devices and restores the Nook to Stock configuration. I did NOT lose my serial number.
Find Meghd00t's thread here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1562130

And I don't know what to do...(
Maybe that
I can't download CWM on SD. Can anybody help me? Please, give me some instruction.
alright i have this problem and i am quite panicking now.
i will set everything straight , i hope someone reading the forums can help me asap !
- have a sgs2 unbranded (hk)
- has ICS 4.0.3 stock rom, rooted.
- i don't remember if usb debug mode was enabled
- i messed up in some way with the file /system/build.prop but there is a backup in /system/ called build.prop.bak
- phone doesn't boot anymore as it's stuck at the logo
- recovery and download modes work however
#need a way to delete the build.prop and replace the bloody file with the one backupped. I would like to avoid having to format the phone as i do not remember when was my last kies backup...
what i tried:
-adb shell: it doesn't work. for some stupid reasons the drivers won't be recognized (i have download android sdk and usb drivers), but when i plug the phone in recovery windows just says Device Unknown and even if i update drivers manually it would say that current ones are functioning so no need to update.
if i connect the phone to usb while it's stuck at boot logo, it would recognize the device through samsung drivers (except MTP of course, that would give error).
in both cases adb shell doesn't list any connected device: even if i kill-server and start-server it still doesn't list anything.
-tried using droid explorer in both frozenboot mode and recovery mode, doesn't see anything.
-tried using that other program called SuperOneClick or something like that, that has a "check drivers" button in advanced: if the phone is in recovery pressing the button doesn't do anyhing; if the phone is in frozenboot it asks to download and install some drivers but when i press yes a message appears with " no more data is available " !
i tried this procedure on both win7x64 and winXPx86: same results. reading around , someone says that adb shell will never work if usb debug is de-actived, like i said i cannot remember if that's the case.
-zip package: i created a package to try and overwrite the file with a custom working one i got. i put the package in the root of the micro sd , put the sd in the phone and booted in recovery.
but when i am in recovery the bloody CWM 5.0.2.7 says error to mount /sdcard, or E: could not mount /sdcard , same if i try to mount/unmount /sdcard. if i go to mount external usb card or whatever it says that a file or a lib (cant remember the exact message) was not found.
i have no more ideas of how to solve this, please be patient :<
edit: is there a way to soft format the system folder so that i don't have to properly wipe all my user data and it only affects the system without other contents?
If adb doesn't work hen you are in trouble, better download some non wipe rom and flash it over the existing rom so that your user data will still be there.

can you expand on this?
give any suggestion/example?
isn't there a soft temp rom for emergencies like this that you can just start, make modifies to fix and reboot (similar to the process to boot ubuntu on windows, fix issues and then restart normal windows? )
i would so like to make adb work.. but how.!!!
probebly will not work but try backing up of your ROM from CWM working or not..then just back up current one...
you can restore apps & data lateron from nandroid backup with some application like titanium backup donated version.
i made a backup . but since the external sd card isn't found by the recovery, now the backup is sitting on the internal memory.
the problem is that, if i flash something with odin now, won't odin wipe everything in the internal memory killing my backup as well?

nope....it will be there dont worry,
just check one more option, go to storage and mount, there is one option mount usb storage, after connecting your phone to PC just mout that and check, are you able to access the SDcard from the computor ot not, if yes, just copy paste your backup to the computor.
then flash a firmware from ODIN
Did the very same thing myself yesterday.. Most ICS-roms from Samsung is non-wipe, so you can just flash it over again with Odin.. Then you just need to root and make customizations (if any) again

could you be more specific on the process ? can you suggest me one to flash with odin ? i need to enter the OS , transfer my backup on my hard disk and then restore the whole thing.
currently my kernel is CF-Root-SGS2_XX_XEO_LPQ-PROPER-v5.4-CWM5.tar

you try to reflash once more CF-Root (.TAR)only from odin
then check "E: cant mout...error" is rectified or not.... also check booting or not,
still no hope...you flash the same firmware again and Cf-root, your SD card data will be there for sure as far as our expereicne till now..
first part of your comment: i tried reflashing the kernel; no changes. same errors
second part: shall i try using the same firmware from my previous post then?? not other roms? after that i will put the root and check if internal memory is still there. if it is i will copy it on my hd and restore.
if it is not there anymore..............
so the end of the story.
thanks to anyone who helped.
the resolution was much easier than everything else.
opened odin, pda loaded my same firmware which was the HK stock update to ICS and reflashed.
what it did was apparently and overhaul of the system folder, that's it.
any data was still there, as well as the backup that i did and all my apps etc etc etc.
however especially at first it looked a bit unstable, with processes failing randomly. now it seems it has stabilized a bit, but still when i try to run a Kies backup, the phone kies process dies and the backup gets stopped.
i still don't know how to fix this, but i'll be looking into it.
so, the morale out of this was at least for me: if there is some **** up within the system folder just reflash the same rom installed. i feel so stupid now for having made such a fuss when the solution was so easy and straightforward
NICE that you finaly came across and able to boot , now you make the Titanium back of your all apps and data transfer to PC....forget the system data.
and move to a nice stable ROM
"Unfortunately, wssyncmlnps has stopped"
anybody knows about this?
Hi all.
I've just installed some app that broke down my S3 stock OS.
The OS was rooted, and I gave the crappy app superuser access...
It was supposed to change the DPI setting, but now it's boot-looping over the Samsung logo.
Now I'd like to recover my data, photos and stuff...
CWM Recovery 5.5.0.4 is installed.
I can start a backup, but it won't complete since I don't have a large enough SD card at hand (it's a 32 GB SGS3 with a bunch of large videos...).
I don't care about the movies, just the photos, but there's no option for a selective backup...
I also tried updating CWM to a more recent release with Odin (downloaded .img and tar'ed it...), but it won't go further than SetupConnection.
I've not tried a factory reset of anything else yet...
Is there a way I can still recover my data, or should I just get over it and try to flash the whole thing back with Odin?
Thanks for your help.
Adb backup?
maybe reinstalling the ROM can fix it ?
The other thing you can try is adb pull /build prop, edit LCD density back to 320 and adb push it back
Thanks for your answers.
adb looks like the way to go, but I never managed to get it working on my computers.
"adb devices" won't list any, "adb shell" returns "error: device not found".
USB debugging was enabled in the OS.
Is the phone supposed to be in recovery mode or download mode? None works... (Also tried with the OS running before it started crashing)
Is there a setup guide somewhere?
Actually, working with Android on Windows (XP x64) has been a total nightmare so far.
On my main computer, Device Manager loops forever on device detection / driver installation, and successive driver installation/uninstallation/reinstallation mangled WMP10 completely (and since it's tied to Windows, I can't reinstall it).
On other computers, driver installation went fine, I hardly managed to copy movies to the phone through MTP / WMP, and never managed to copy anything back.
I only ever managed to move files over wifi, but that's at wifi speed, not USB2 speed...
And now that I gave Kies a try (stayed away from it so far), it keeps eating 100% CPU whenever I run it.
I had that adb problem then I installed android command centre, and bam, it worked! Will try and find link for you....brb
Finally managed to run adb on the computer with Kies installed.
I'll look into this.
Here go

Can't use adb pull/push anymore: in a previous attempt to reduce the nandroid backup size, I formated the system and cache partitions.
Then I managed to run a full backup with CWM Recovery, but can't find my files in there.
The backup files only contains application data, but the sdcard folder is totally missing.
Well, it appears the problem indeed was in build.prop.
My backup has 2 files: build.prop.bak and buid.prop.temp.
.bak has the old density, .temp has the new value.
Somehow the app failed to rename build.prop.temp to build.prop, and made the system unbootable.
adb backup won't work either: it's waiting for a confirmation on the phone, and doesn't seem to work in recovery mode.
Now browsing /data/media with adb shell !
I had to mount /data manually (in recovery), I guess the same is true for a recovery backup, and that's why I couldn't find my files.
Think I'll manage to get it all back now.
Thanks a lot slaphead20.

Hi, Because of the issue I described below. I need to have a custom recovery to have acces to the internal memory from the recovery menu.
Currently my phone is not rooted. If I understand all correct I need to flash a recovery like Philz.
Will this affect the data which is now stored on my phone? This since that's my main goal, regain access to that data and copy it. If flashing my phone would erase this, there is no need for me to flash it at all.
All i need is access to the internal SD memory.
Thanks for any replies

I have a replacement phone, so would like to transfer some data from the internal SD memory to an external SD card. Problem is... the phone is not powered on long enough to do this!
I tried to clear the cache, also booted in safe mode (also shuts down in safe mode).
My only concern is to get some data from the internal SD memory. Any suggestions for a workaround?
I've so far followed these instructions:
Pre requisite is having adb "installed" on your windows PC. Download THIS file and follow the instructions in the readme.
You need to observe the following. For android 4.1.x and earlier, /data/media for android 4.2.x and newer, /data/media/0 - I will assume 4.2.2 for this guide,.
1) Boot into recovery, connect usb and go to "mounts and storage". Toggle the "mount data" options to mount these partitions. Tip, when mounted, the option then becomes "unmount data"
2) Open "cmd" in Windows and type the below code, which will copy all your data to a folder called sdcard on your windows desktop
Code: adb pull /data/media/0/ c:\users\rootsu\desktop\sdcard
Also note, this assumes you have windows vista or newer. Also, it assumes your windows username is rootsu.
That's it, simple.

Since I'm a new user i cannot post links yet, so i've put a screenshot here postimg.org/image/ngflqe3yt
I did read: General > Sticky roll-up thread > S3 storage (data recovery)?
I was a great help and pushed me approx. 90% on my way. Now i'm stuck on the last part.
thanks again!
Does the folder "ff" exist?
the directory ff is existing. However the subfolder Samsung was not. So i now created this and ran the same command again. And... it's copying all data from my mobile!!!
Now i can go back to factory settings or try a custom ROM since i'm not that happy with touchwizz.
Just awesum! I thank you for this forum and the help provided.

Oh ok. Thats good. Its odd you had to create samsung though but never mind. The weird thing was how after samsung, the \ turned to /
The Samsung folder justy contains some sample music & video.
I could have seen this myself, guess it just got a bit late yesturday.
Anyway, great help. I will now see if i can bring my S3 back to live or turn it in for repair.
