Ok here you go.

Put your SD Card into your computer.

Download the CWM_SD_flash_and_exe from here and unzip them into a folder.

Right Click on the included Win32DiskImager choose Run As Administrator

Make sure that the drive link under Device is showing your SD Card. Change it if it isn't, then click on the folder.

Navigate to the cwm_sd_flashing_boot.img that was included with the zip, then click save.

Then click on Write on Win 32 Disk Imager. It will take ~5 minutes. Once it's done, click exit.

Download the update.zip from here and copy it to your SD Card.

(Optional) Download a Recovery zip image from this thread and put it on the SD Card as well.

Edit: Most recent CWM can be found here: http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=33730135&postcount=1

Eject the SD Card and put it into your nook.

Power on the Nook and you should see a white background with a box on it, then it should boot into the Recovery.

From there, go to Install Zip from SD Card > Choose Zip from External SD Card and install the update.zip you just downloaded.

(Optional) From the same location in the Recovery, install the Recovery image you just downloaded.

Power off your nook, remove the SD Card, and power it back on. It should boot normally and you should now be rooted.

Warning: I take no responsibility for broken nooks or other damage that may happen. This has worked for me, but that is no indicator if it will work for you.

[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] RhinoNelson:
try different sd cards

This goes back quite a ways in time, but I recall people having to try multiple SD cards until they got one that would work. And the method of starting mattered as well. Completely power off by holding the power button in until the Nook shuts down. Insert your card and then plug the power cord in and let it start the sequence.....

Okay I will attempt my 4 different sdcard. A 16gb one. I have actually tried to power it on with just usb cable and it does but takes literally 15 minutes.and just boots normally not from the sdcard.

I have an 8g NT running on 1.4.3. I followed your Instructions perfectly and I still cant get my device to boot to the SD Card. I have written the image on a 2G sd card and a 16g card and still. I press the power button and it boots up normally.

I also tried holding N+power button and waiting until the device boots and shut down again then I insert SD card with image on it and hit the power button and still it forces me to do a factory reset.

I want to install the same ROM you are running on your tablet. that is all i want to do! lol please help! sd

Did you rename the recovery file before you flashed it?

Like rename 'CWM_v6.0.1.5_emmc.zip' to 'Recovery.zip'?

Edit: I see that 'Recovery.img' is insidethe zip file. So I guess I need to extract the zip file, and then put the 'Recovery.img' file on the SD card to flash?

[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] hydeah:
After following above instructions, and getting the Nook rooted, which CM version should I get? Which download link? I really don't care much about features of Android 4.1 vs 4.2, I just need to get a smooth running android on Nook so I can get some games and app for the kids. Which CM do you recommend?

Thanks in advance!

EDIT: I understood that there are two different ones, SD version and internal.

So my guess is, i will go with this:

http://four-nineteen.com/veronica/X...RIES/flash_CM9-10_CWM_6.0.2.5_8-16gb_emmc.zip

Are these CWM versions?

CM9-10_CWM_6.0.2.5_8 Does this mean I must make sure I am using correct CWM version before I try to flash CM?

it says CM9-10, which one is it?

and follow below instructions:

But what do I have to do in order to take a back up before I do this? Or is it enough that BN stock rom is included there and I can go back to it if something goes wrong?
[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] scgt1:
No offense but your instructions don't help anything. Before you even get to step 1 it states the instructions are for linux only and to use the windows instructions. (These are the ones I'm talking about) Step outside as someone that knows nothing about development and tell me what the heck you are supposed to do with step 1 let alone getting to the point of flashing a rom to the NT. I did this before a while back to two tablets with CM7 My fiancees has since ceased to boot which it seems is because the SD card is dead as my computer won't even read it. So I was going to fix it up for her and also go with the newest CM but I can't even for the life of me figure these instructions out from step 1 on how to root the NT from scratch with a formated SD card.

On top of formatting the SD card in file manager in windows I only see a small partition. Where under diskmanagement I see several but they can't be deleted. My only thought is the NT did the formatting and it's something windows can't read. Which locks down the total 32gb sd card to just around 200mb usable.

I've been reading and reading this post for a long time now today and I just don't get it.

If it really matters (which it shouldn't since it states or any version at the top of the OP) out NT's are on 1.4.3. I remember when I rooted these that there was only one method to root that version of Nook but it seems the playing field has changed a year or so later.

Now Liguidzoo's actually got me somewhere. Everything as he stated could actually be done. Now my NT 1.4.3 boots back into Nook so I assume it's ready (after his instructions) to flash with a custom ROM. Although I don't know where the instructions that worked for me put the files and I don't even know if I'm actually rooted because the program just stated it was complete with running the update and that was it.

Looking for newest working method - Nook Tablet 16gb

Hello ... I know this is an old topic, but I have a Nook Tablet 16gb I was given and want to root it. It is version 1.4.4. I have followed instructions in this forum to no luck. Plus it appears the "update.zip" file is missing somewhere online. My question is: What is the newest method to rooting this version of the nook tablet and where can I get the instructions and needed files? Thanks.
[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] nmyshkin:
You won't get much mileage for your efforts if all you want to do is root the device. That leaves you with Android 2.3 and the crippled B&N OS overlay. Flashing any of the newer ROMs will give you root

and

an updated Android system to boot.

I am running AOSP 7.0 on my 16 gb tablet and highly recommend it: https://xdaforums.com/nook-tablet/general/how-to-installing-aosp-android-7-0-t3578665

Does your AOSP 7.0 have exFAT support? If not how difficult is it to add based on nathanchance's "[MODULE] [7.x.x] Enable sdcardfs - 7/13/2017" https://xdaforums.com/apps/magisk/module-enable-sdcardfs-t3603375

[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] nmyshkin:
You're beyond "late". Look at the date of the OP.

So what is it you would like to accomplish?
[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] LKJEFoi234:
I'm sorry. I spent about 10 hours trying to get this working. I'm trying to install the latest version of Cyanogenmod on the Nook Color. After factory reset, it says it's 1.4.3, and I was able to root (not sure if really rooted) something from YouTube, which allows me to use a different Home Launcher and Market, but that's about it.

My attempts to recovery boot using the SD anything larger than 70 MB have failed for some reason, so I can't install CM.
[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] nmyshkin:
Whoa there, pardner. Did you really mean Nook COLOR? If so, you are in the wrong forum and using anything from here will likely brick your device.

Why oh why yet another compression format ???

Why oh why yet another (and in this case proprietary) compression format (RAR) ??? (And yet another way to get a virus or trojan from closed-source software ...)

I have a couple of patents on data compression (5,371,499 and 5,406,278) and associated software, and I don't go around introducing yet another incompatible compression format into the utility mainstream. Let's stick to the standards of ZIP and gzip, guys!!!

I don't install/use 7ZIP for the same reason.

First of all I trust indirect. He has been here since the beginning. Why do people troll forums to bash someones hard work? You don't like the format, start your own build. People in windows, get a partition program, make the partition, right click and make it active. Paste files put in nook and reboot l I promise it works. There is a whole thread to this and tips in the comments on what to use. Pm me if you need help.
[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] Indirect:
chill, I'm uploading a zip archive of all the files in one so then you don't need to keep extracting crap. Happy now?
[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] mikestad16:
Thanks dude don't worry about his complaints.
[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] Indirect:
There, changed the zip with the rar and whatnot to a simple zip file. Happy now?
[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] DeanGibson:
Who makes the choice?

I don't want to change the original subject of the thread, but:

Windows 7 recognizes ZIP files but not RAR files.

The popularity of WinRAR and 7ZIP is a reflection of users being forced (by file providers) to download yet another decompression utility, not by user choice/demand.

WinRAR is apparently only free for 40 days.
[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] mikestad16:
Windows users use easeus paration magic or mini tool partition both work well after creating partition just right click and mark as active then apply. After created paste files to root of folder.

[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] DeanGibson:
I trust Indirect as well, and have credited him over on the B&N forums. Did you know that? It's the authors of the closed-source compression software that I have the issue with.

As for trolling, if you look at my contributions to repartitioning the NC or rooting the NT, you will find that I have the first root of 1.4.1. Did you know that? I also think Indirect's method here is superior to mine (because it is more general), which is why I am interested in it, and will promote it.

Before you go around with your tiny post/thanks counts calling people "trolls", you might try something even easier than trolling. It's called reading.

You could have made a request rather than bashing. I would have said indirect, can you use zips rather than spitting patents and bashing. That's the thing that makes people quit projects because its not worth the headaches. Maybe resstate bashes as suggestions it helps.
