[Nook Color General] Turmith:
I'm not so sure it's the sdcard reader(which is internal to my Dell Laptop)

I switched from a 8gb sd card to a 2gb sd card(to make sure the SD card wasn't causing a problem) and pulled down a SD version of Nookie Froyo 2gb(to make sure CWM wasn't the issue either) just to see if i could get the thing to boot.

Same thing as occurred again.

It's become apparent that Winimage is either not doing it's job or I've somehow miss-configured the thing to not work correctly.

Winimage seems to only be writing one partition to the sdcard. In addition the Nook won't even attempt to boot off the sd card unless it's been formatted by either the nook or my droid prior to imaging. To me this indicates winimage isn't actually writing a image as much as it is copying files(and only the 1st partition at that).

Next step is to Uninstall Winimage, removing an left over configuration files and re-installing. If that doesn't work I'm going to try switching computers.

If that doesn't work then i'm going to look for a new Imaging program.

If anyone has any insight, it'd be welcome.
[Nook Color General] Turmith:
Well I can officially state my opinion that WinImage sucks...

I downloaded WinDiskImage and within 5 minutes I had my Nook 2.1 Rooted.

Thanks for your help.

[Nook Color General] Izord:
A friend who's nook is neutered but not updated wants me to update her nook to the latest Barnes and Noble Rom.

On my nook I run the latest CM7 nightly with OC kernel, and have no problem with CWR etc.

On hers, I want to keep it as stock as possible. Just want to update it to the latest stock ROM. And neuter it so she can use market etc.

What's the easiest way to go from a neutered 1.1 to a neutered 1.2 (or whatever is the recent B&N ROM update)? Thanks, and sorry if I got those ROM version numbers wrong.
[Nook Color General] Izord:
Will it update itself?

Just wondering if I leave her alone for a week or two will she receive an OTA update automatically? (over wifi I guess?) (even if it's neutered?)
[Nook Color General] Turmith:
I would wait for a autonooter to come out for 1.2 before doing anything unless you like living on the edge.

I was using a nootered 1.0.1 this morning, had to format my system and Data partitions to restore the nook back to factory. Then i had to manually update to 1.2.

Now I've lost root capability and access to the market. The market that BN does offer is not very impressive.
[Nook Color General] Izord:
Will Autonootered nook receive OTA update?

Anyone who Nootered their nook received the latest update? Thanks.
[Nook Color General] japzone:
If you rooted your Nook won't update. If you want to update you have to perform a Factory reset. Go to Nookdevs and find the Remove Root page.

If you are using a rooted 1.1, you will need to

1.) Flash Clockwork 3.0.1.0 (or newer) to a micro SD card (Google 'clockwork bootable' and look for a result from mrm3[dot]net)

2.) Download the compatible 1.2 signed image (plain, not keepcwm) and put it on the micro SD card that you just flashed. LINK

3.) Turn off your nook color, put in the micro SD card, and power it up.

4.) You will need to 'flash zip from SD card'. Choose the 1.2 file and flash it.

5.) Go back to main menu (the power button functions as the back button) and do a factory restore (this will clear cache as well)

6.) Pull the sd card from your nook color, then choose "reboot"

7.?) I got an install error on first boot. I waited until the screen turned off on its own, then powered back up. It properly booted to the initial registration screen

****Note, you need Clockwork 3.0.1.0 to flash the 1.2 image, otherwise you will get stuck at the 'n' screen when you try to boot.

I just got done flashing from a rooted 1.1 to stock 1.2. Now to tackle rooting 1.2 :)
[Nook Color General] criley:
I don't think that's the case.

My rooted 1.1 nook has been sitting untouched for about a week. I turned it on today and it looks like I got the OTA update (I am being asked to register when I turn it on as if it was a new nook). As I said, it was rooted and had the 1.1 update only.
[Nook Color General] fpga_guy:
Not quite true. There's been anecdotal evidence that a rooted NC with CWM installed in emmc may prevent updates. But as others have mentioned many rooted NC have been updated.
[Nook Color General] skeeterpro:
Finished rooting after 1.2 update on my stock backup NC. The MN works just fine. I would suggest backuping up files and flashing back to stock (1.1.0) the rooted NC. Only way I know of to ensure a clean eMMC.

Then load the 1.2 downloaded file from BN and update. Then snag the MN to root.

Side note: Use latest CWR 3.0.2.8 and not 3.0.1.0

Once the 1.2 is rooted you'll probably need to do the "standard gapps" reset (clear cache & FC Apps the Google Framework). Then the entire Market will show.

Note also: some apps will fail to install (for me Angry Birds and Aldiko) Use Root Explorer to download the cut/paste file from downloadnull folder to sys/apps, rename and install using package installer.

Above worked for me earlier today.

[Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Strike_Eagle:
Hi, i am a student from Vietnam, but studying at United States right now. This is my first year at United States, so i haven't signed a contract yet because i know i will be back Vietnam for a little bit (for about ~4 months). I will be back here on September, 2011 and i think i am going to sign a 2-year contract and get a Windows Phone 7 Device because my currect monthly-contract with T-Mobile is kinda expensive i think...

i am current having the HTC HD7 T-Mobile T9292, bought on ebay. Work perfectly,i am loving it. And September seem to be far away, and HD7 is not a "failed" device, somebody would wonder why i create this thread.

But today, when i went back from the school, i suddenly dropped my HD7 to the ground quite hard and it had no cover at all ( i forgot to put the black-silicon cover for it because i was leaving in hurry in the morning). The phone was damaged physically outside, top right corner ( but still working, no problem while operating the phone) and it looks ugly. I am kinda a person who have a "eye-infinity", want to own something look sexy :D (that why i bought the HD7). So, when the phone is damaged and cannot be fixed, i get mad (not really, lol :o) and there is one thing run across my head, "I am going to have a new phone" .

basically, i know nothing about signing a contract with a wiress-provider. If someone can give me some info that would be great. I am a Microsoft-Fan, and Windows Phone 7 is great to use. But now it get me really confuse. I don't know which phone i am going to get.

HTC HD7 is fine, since i have some special respect to HTC because they always make cool phones, but it has some issue, like "Pink-Camera", TFT-LCD only... Now, we even have a HD7S from AT&T. And again, i don't know which carrier to choose. People said AT&T is expensive, but has a better coverage than T-Mobile...blah...blah...blah. Even Android is not that bad. I am really confuse.

If someone can help me out, that would be great!

PS: I will be at St.Peterburg, FL next year, if someone are going to answer my question about coverage! Thanks!

or put a cover on it ?

or buy anything off craigslist... a two year contract with the devil, for a phone you can pick up for $200 locally ?
[Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Strike_Eagle:
Thanks for the link. But i have another question. If i sign a new contract (to T-Mobile for example), can i use my old phone? Or i must have another one?

I want to sign a contract because i cannot handle $50 /month plan for the whole year (Unlimited Talk and text, 100mb data). I choose that plan only beacause i want the "Data", i use the EGRPS/3G more than talk and texting. My friend who have a iPhone 4 AT&T, pay $25/month, and has 2GB Data, 2year contract.

I have the silicon cover for it. It cover the damaged part pretty well. But the idea of signing a contract here is having the Data Usage ( i am a heavily 3G/EGPRS user). I don't need Unlimited talk and text but i need EGPRS so that why i need to choose the plan $50/month...
[Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] drkfngthdragnlrd:
Plus, remember, most likely AT&T will be merging with T-Mobile within 12 months or so. So, being with one or the other in the long run won't matter & signing a contract with T-Mobile, you may be able to cancel your contact free of charge in a yr. In the USA, you're allowed to cancel a contract free of charge when there's a merger of this type. Also, T-Mobile is cheaper than AT&T & in my experience has better service. I've seen many AT&T users not have signer where I do with T-Mobile, granted non of this matter once the merger is complete.
[Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] drkfngthdragnlrd:
First thing to mention using an existing device, AT&T & T-Mobile have different 3G frequencies so a T-Mobile device won't get 3G on AT&T. Now they both are GSM & so have SIM Cards so you can reuse your device, just get a cheap free phone with your new contract.
[Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Strike_Eagle:
I look at the Windows Phone Chart today, and i don't think any current device is better than HD7, since i have already gotten used to the 4.3 inch screen, it is hard to switch to something smaller than 4 inch.

Dell Venue now is a good choice, but i actually don't like the design that much, and Dell is not really famous in Smartphone category.

ASUS also has a plan for a Windows Phone 7 Device, same as HTC ( a new ad about Windows Phone 7 HTC Device with 16mp Camera and Front Camera for video call) ... and i think they are quite sexy to compare to the HD7.
[Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] drkfngthdragnlrd:
I was just checking both AT&T & T-Mobile's plans & the cheapest Talk/Text/Web I see is $60 for T-Mobile (500 Mins) & $75 for AT&T (450 Mins w/ Roll Over, $39.99 Talk/$20.00 Text/$15.00 Web). Both have Unlimited Text & 200 MB Data.
[Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Strike_Eagle:
So, you have signed the contract to T-Mobile? What is your current plan? (How much per month?) and What is the cheapeast plan that T-Mobile provide?
[Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] drkfngthdragnlrd:
I have Unlimited Talk/Unlimited Text on 5 lines & Unlimited Web on 1 line. Our bill is $314.05 (With Taxes/Fees/Etc.). T-Mobile does have an Unlimited Talk/Text/Web deal for $80 for a single line.
[Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Strike_Eagle:
Do you have any suggestion? 200MB Web is not that bad if i use EGPRS only... but 3G maybe a little bit different, since i am not always home or any cafe' to have Wifi... I may get crazy one day and use all my data in watching video on YouTube!

But i can't believe that my friend can get $25/month, and 2GB Web Data on AT&T for iPhone 4!
[Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] drkfngthdragnlrd:
I highly doubt he's only paying $25 a month. I believe that to be just for Data, not including talk/text. I pay $30 a month for my Unlimited Data, the 200 MB Data is only $15. AT&T does not have an Unlimited Data plan. They have the 200 MB & 2 GB plans.
[Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Strike_Eagle:
So, if you sign a contract, you can pay separately between call/texting and Web Data? That sould really cool to me... :rolleyes:

Are you having unlimited data for your HD7?
[Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] drkfngthdragnlrd:
Correct, my plan is a shared family plan of Unlimited Talk/Text for all 5 lines. My line has it's own Unlimited Data. I prefer to be safe for the extra $15 & not have to worry about data usage.
[Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Strike_Eagle:
Thank you very much about the T-Mobile's Plan sir!

Look like i am going to have a contract with T-Mobile... The problem now, is waiting for some Cool Windows Phone 7 Device come out... and hopefully... t-mobile will have it

I have seen to many users run into problems with unrevoked. I did it manually using adb commands and it took a while but I knew what was going on if something messed up. That said, I watched a vid on that autoroot tool and it gives you a decent step-by-step with log if something messed up. I would recommend it, or of course, you could still use the manual method in the dev forum. The title says they are no longer updating it, but no releases have occurred since then so everything in it still applies.

I did root like some year or so ago. Using Unrevoke.

Is there a need to root, or reroot if you will, on a constant basis, or as new rooting methods come up?

Also, when I first did the root, I believe Unrevoke had a regular and a forever method. I used the 'regular' root, and since I had no problem since, I do not know what advantage the forever has. Is it necessary, or advisable for me to go back and search for the meanest, badest root method and root the hell out of my htc evo 4g all over?
