[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] Depardieu:
Well I guess all I can really confirm was when I fixed the partitions, and ran a parted command, my Partition Table came up, and It had no mention of errors or told me to "type Y to fix corrupted partitions". I cross checked the partition sizes and they looked very similar to this:

Number Start End Size File system Name Flags
1 131kB 262kB 131kB xloader
2 262kB 524kB 262kB bootloader
3 524kB 16.3MB 15.7MB recovery
4 16.8MB 33.6MB 16.8MB boot
5 33.6MB 83.9MB 50.3MB fat32 rom
6 83.9MB 134MB 50.3MB fat32 bootdata
7 134MB 522MB 388MB ext4 factory
8 522MB 1164MB 642MB ext4 system
9 1164MB 1611MB 447MB ext4 cache
10 1611MB 2684MB 1074MB fat32 media
11 2684MB 15.9GB 12.9GB ext4 userdata

Which is, from what I've read, correct or what it should look like.

Perhaps I overlooked something within the repartition process, but from what it seems if I did do the repartition correct, I'd be good to go and get my nook back to working order? If so then obviously I must of missed something which I suppose can narrow it down considerably.

Thanks for your time by the way, it means a lot to actually talk to someone about the issue after being a bit frustrated.
[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] Depardieu:
Ok I want to say I'm really close to fixing this now, I'm currently in ubuntu, since that was the only way I could ADB, I have the repartition files, I'm pretty sure I have it all mounted properly, and I can see my device ID come up, when i type in

parted /dev/block/mmcblk0 print

Then it tells me

WARNING: You are not superuser. Watch out for permissions.
Error: Could not stat device /dev/block/mmcblk0 - No Such file or directory

Which immediately leads me to believe I must be missing something important, or perhaps I haven't mounted everything correctly? Should my nook tablet be in CWM if that really matters?

*Edit*

To clarify to my previous post about my Partition Table, when I run the parted command, the file size match up, and it doesn't give an error saying its corrupt, but under the File system column, there is none, its just blank if that matters.
[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] danimalmanimal:
My device shows up in ADB with my serial number, however it gets stuck on "first need to make sure you didn't lie about it showing up, I also need to check for root incase you want to run any updates!" I was using Nook&Zergy for ADB.

Hopefull the fact that my serial number still shows up in ADB is a good thing? Any help?
[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] Depardieu:
Well, I figure I'd just go for broke with this, and I started this guide for Completely Dead Nook's and fixing the Partition Table. Everything worked great up to the part where you recreate your partition, when I input that command, I get a "Permission Denied" error. I went back to the start but this time enabled "su" and I still get a Permission Denied.

Essentially I think I could get this working, except I'm just stonewalled at this one part. (Although I guess I could dig in for the long haul and manually recreate using the parted way...right?)

*edit*

OK I finally believe I've made some headway. While I got the "Permission Denied" error, I figured I could just go a manually recreate all my partitions, which I went and did going off the guide. Now when I boot back into CWM I no longer have the string of E:Mount Errors !

I'll report back on progress, I assume I'm heading in the right direction if the errors are gone no?

*Update*

Well the errors are gone in CWM, but I still am stuck with a bootloop/constant restarting at the grey/silver "n" logo. I tried Ray Waldo's unbrick, which has the whole green check mark stuff, but I still get a red x. Perhaps I missed something, any clues?

Another update, Adam's Ubuntu Recovery is no longer stuck at "writing zeroes to MLO". This seems to be a very good sign

Another update, It's working! I used Ray Waldo's unbrick method, got the green check, but now I get an error when it registers the device, which I know is tied to partition 5 which i recreated, I thought I had made a proper backup, but I guess I made a backup of when it was already formatted, so is it possible to get my Serial Number, MAC address what-have-you back, if not what are the options I have?
[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] ShinnAsuka:
well since you redid your partitions, most likely the rom partition is missing files. that partition has all that info: serial number mac address,etc...

you can get the serial number easily if you registered your nook with b&n. just go to their website and log in to your b&n account and under my nook you should see it.

if you didn't register your nook, then that might be a bit more difficult. there is a thread in the dev section i think on getting back your original serial number.

also you can bypass registration if you want to get your nook back in working order with a custom rom and the like. just do a quick search on youtube and there will be video about it by albertcwertz
[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] Depardieu:
Alright, I can confirm I have the serial, I just don't know how to put it back into the device, so the registration page picks it up. Any advice?

Thanks for the reply by the way!
[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] ShinnAsuka:
sorry i am drawing a blank there. i restored my nook tablet using adam's total wipe and i had the problem your having now. not being able to register. i decided to just screw it since i won't use b&n software anyways. i bypassed regsitration and rooted again and then installed custom rom and all is fine lol.

even now when i use adb to get serial info it comes up as all zeroes, but when i go into my rom partition and open the serial number file, my serial number is in there. so i don't really know why registration doesn't pick up the serial number.

maybe b&n has a specific location for the registration process to find out where to look for the serial number info.

all i know is that the rom partition contains information pertaining to the device itself (serial num, mac address, etc).

hopefully someone else will be able to answer your question in more detail.
[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] Depardieu:
Well, I think I can just say case closed for now, I guess I didn't want to use stock B&N (Why else would I be here in the first place) I have found a rom I'm starting to really like. Thanks for your help though it is greatly appreciated!
[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] spacetwin4:
Alrigh Nook gurus, I desperately need your help...please note that I'm only a few degrees above a noob:

*

NT 8GB, formerly running CM7 Beta.

*

I've accidently formatted my emmc and it's causing all kinds of mounting issues, mostly when locating or mounting the cache. Whenever I try to install anything (e.g. backup, new ROM, stock recovery, stock repart) the error "can't mount /cache" comes up and prevents me from doing most everything. When I power the unit on the 'n' splash screen appears for about 3 seconds, then the cyanoboot universal loader comes up states "loading emmc recovery" and goes right into TWRP. Although it states "hold 'n' for menu" it will continue to boot TWRP. Therefore I do not have the option of accessing fastboot, and even if I did it would likely result in the usual "can't mount /cache" error that I get when trying to flash anything. Here's what I've tried and a summary of the result:

*

I've tried the "repart.img" stock recovery method. It will load the downward arrow and say "updating", then it states that it will reboot and reminds me to remove my sd card. It does not reboot automatically, and when I manually power on it goes right back into TWRP.

*

I've tried the Ubuntu boot method, but after I downloaded the 1GB file, unzipped it, added .img to the file, flashed to SD, inserted into NT, power on...then goes right back into TWRP.

*

Everything else involving flashing recoveries (cwm, twrp, stock) I've tried, always resulting in cache mount errors and no change boot up. I am able to boot CM7 Alpha Final via SD card, but only when I insert the card and power the NT up via PC-USB connection. Also, I can boot into CWM recovery via SD card when powering via PC-USB connection. When I power up normally (with the power button) its as though the tablet disregards what is in the SD slot and goes right into the emmc recovery. If anybody has any insight as to what might fix this, please let me know.
[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] ShinnAsuka:
Your tablet is basically in recovery mode. So you most likely have your partitions screwed up. Look at the thread in the development section about repartitioning your internal memory
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] evaworld:
ok , now my note just got back from jtag repair,

the story is that

i am using jelly bean, and all of you know that jb has memory leak problem, so i wa looking to use swap file to increase my ram

and i found that note core v4.1 has swap support, so i installed it and used swapper 2 [stupid aha?]

after that i choosed to use swap partition after i partitioned my sd card via recovery,

and then i just choosed the swap file to be put in mdbl0ck3, don't know why i choosed this partition, i think i see it in an article over the internet

and then all things go fine, the swap file is running, till i restarted my phone, and then it just dead, no jig, download mode, or any sign of life,

i knewed that it is the hard brick, but i never knew it will occure while using swap file, any way, i just recieved my phone from jtag, thanks gud that there are some few people can use jtag in Egypt, and all things is fine now, i just wanted to warning u to not try to use swap partition, or any swap to be 100% safe
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jonpaslim:
I think its not emmc bug, because in the first place you said its jtag repairable and 2nd you use notecore that will not trigger emmc erase. Emmc bug is no way can be repaired by jtag at the moment. When you mentioned about jb rom and emmc bug i was alarmed, i thought, the jb rom has emmc bug issue again, you know its my last hope of resolving this issue.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] little-vince:
Yea. Just cuz you got a brick doesn't mean that it's an emmc brick bug.

Like a tree is a plant, but that doesn't mean that all plants are trees.

Anyways, I'm sure this warning might be of use to others.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Eluviet:
Disagree

ROM: Liquid Black

Kernel: Hyrdacore 4.3b - STD

Used Swapper for the entire duration i was on Jelly Core Build 2, Build 3 and V2.

Question: Where did you save the swap file?

Swap files are rumoured to kill off SD cards. Your Internal Memory card is nothing more than a glorified SD card.

try Dr.Ketan's method and see if you can revive your phone. All the best.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] evaworld:
OK it may not be emmc brick, but my phone was dead and survived only with tag, I used sawpper and frist I chossed to save it to my sdcard, but the kernel was deleting the swap file, and was killing the program, so I decided to use swap partition, and after I restarted my phone, it just dead, don't know what exactly happened, I tried to save the swap in mdblck03, and 2, but I think it is killed by saving in mdblck03, any way I though this may help others to not try swap partition.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] misterhide:
The brick is fault Swapper 2. Don't work at all. I've bricked my i9001 with this stupid app. Many negative comments in the store confirm it.

[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Boombastical:
Look here please

Hi Evaworld,

I heve been using Swapper 2 with CM 10.0 and with Hydracore 7 and Nirvana core N6 without any problem for a months and i have made with a partitioning tool the swap partition on the end of my SD card. If you read my post here:

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2209526 ,

you will see that I have ecountered already two soft bricks but I still don't know the reason for it and I forgot to mention that I used in both cases of brick the swap partition too, on same manner as you did i,t because it worked before without any problem with CM 10.0.

With original stock ROM it wouldn't work and it could only make swap file on internal memory and it wouldn't use swap partition because it wasn't supported by the stock kernel. But I also had enabled to save swap to "mdblck03" as it's by default in the swapper2 advanced settings.

Even more I have ever used swapper2 for one of my colegue at his LG optimus L7 with a same result, and there was also swap not supported by stock kernel, but there I used and "V6 supercharger" to gain at speed, and it happened the speed and responses of the phone was much better but when the phone fist time was powered off it was bricked. It was repaired for free by LG service by reflashing software.

So, just same as in my story about the brick of my N7000, I don't know what has caused the bricks and I didn't suspect of Swapper2 but now I'm really curios what it caused ?

And it wasnt EMMC brick, same as it wasn't by your phone, but it's just a soft brick and it will be nice if someone who has more experience to enlighten this for us ...:good:

Greetz !

hey man, HELP-ME PLEASE ! I have a galaxy s3 with the same problem, I'v used swapper2 for get swap, and puf my phone sudenly turn off, and stuck at bootlogo, i tried pit partition, flash new firmware on odin, but nothing happen, please tell me what did you do ?! PLEASE !

thank you !

JTAG needed

Hi Evaworld,

I just need to know where you fixed using JTAG as I have a Galaxy Tab 7 plus and it is dead now and I live in Egypt. I went to an Authorised Samsung Distributor but they couldn't fix it.

Thanks in advance.

[Samsung Captivate Glide] lambgx02:
Success! Ladies and gentlemen, we are in business! :good:

I've rebuilt ICS from the 4.0.4 + Samsung patch tree, with the a2dp max bitpool set to a more appropriate 64. For the first time ever, let your Glide sound the way it should over bluetooth! :)

Updated library (and source patch) attached. Simply push audio.a2dp.default.so to /system/lib/fw (root & rw /system required), or use the CWMR flashable update provided by thegreatergood (CWMR_a2dp-bitpool-fix.zip).

Please note this binary is only compatible with the official ICS (IMM76D/UCLH2) and the leaked ICS build! It will have no effect on the previous Gingerbread build.

Take a nand backup with CWMR before you begin! If this library is corrupted, your phone will hang during bootup!

6 root@glamb-i927:/system/lib/hw# logcat | grep -i bitpool
D/A2DP ( 3768): min_bitpool: 2
D/A2DP ( 3768): max_bitpool: 53
D/A2DP ( 3768): bitpool=53

53 is the max supported by the headset I'm using, and it sounds great!

Note - if you want to apply the source patch yourself, the target files are in external/bluetooth/bluez/audio.

Thanks to thegreatergood for creating a CWMR flashable archive!

Enjoy!
[Samsung Captivate Glide] dudejb:
Ya that is one thing that really is bothering me with the leak is it takes forever to connect with Google maps I Mean close to 15 minutes!! Perhaps I should start looking at switching to the release if you say this is fixed....Just wish someone would make a CWM version.
[Samsung Captivate Glide] jayjayjoker2:
This should be in the general section
[Samsung Captivate Glide] lambgx02:
Why? I'm working on a solution to the problem that could involve binary or source patches, recompiles, and some complex debugging and/or side effects. I don't think it's good to expose everyone in the general section to this process.. :confused:
[Samsung Captivate Glide] jayjayjoker2:
Well if you are developing then that's fine
[Samsung Captivate Glide] reinbeau:
Thread moved

This does not belong in Development, until a file is ready for downloading - that's what belongs in Development. Until then, it belongs in General.
[Samsung Captivate Glide] lambgx02:
Just so we're clear here (I wouldn't want to make the mistake twice) - you're saying threads of technical nature that involve potentially pasting code snippets, log dumps, modifications to /system and other risky procedures which may (soft) brick devices belong in the general discussion forum, unless the first message contains an attachment?

If so, when my 4.0.4 source tree build finally completes and I upload a modified /system/lib/hw/audio.a2dp.default.so and diffs, should I expect complaints that the thread belongs in the development section?
[Samsung Captivate Glide] reinbeau:
Development discussion, once something is developed, takes place in the thread if the developer allows it, since there its no Q&A section.

[Samsung Captivate Glide] taiber2000:
can the fix be done on GB? i'm still using it until i'll have custom rom that will support my language.

i know it been compiled for ics but can we use the source to change the gb version?
[Samsung Captivate Glide] lambgx02:
Sadly, no. This is the main reason I was so excited when the ICS source was released.

The problem is the Gingerbread build uses a proprietary Broadcom binary for managing bluetooth, and I wasn't able to hack the binary itself. Tried for weeks.

I hope an ICS build comes out for you soon!
[Samsung Captivate Glide] Necc86:
Greetings.

After overwriting the original file, and rebooting the phone, i noticed a minor audio quality improvement (minor, but clearly noticeable) by using a Nokia BH-905 headset, and listening to music files, however i do not tested calls yet.
[Samsung Captivate Glide] lambgx02:
The quality improvement depends on the headset, which can also set the maximum bitpool size. If the BH-905 limits the bitpool to 45, that would only be slightly better than the stock 35. If you're interested, you can check the negotiated bitpool size with:

logcat | grep -i bitpool

.. shortly after connecting A2DP.

Note that this patch will have no effect on voice calls, since they use a different profile (HSP / HFP).
[Samsung Captivate Glide] bakageta:
Using Motorola S805's here, and a very noticeable increase in quality. Looks like mine support a max of 53.
[Samsung Captivate Glide] taiber2000:
damn, thanks man. i hope that a port of aosp/aokp or cm9/10 will be out and then i will upgrade to it - and i believe there isn't a problem in those roms with the bitpool. btw how can i know the maximum bitpool of my headset? i have a sony erricson mw600.
[Samsung Captivate Glide] lambgx02:
Just connect them and start playing some music while running:

logcat | grep -i bitpool

Even with the 35-limited stock library it should tell you what headset requested.
[Samsung Captivate Glide] brunobbarcelos:
How i do install it? Flash CWM? Both zips?
[Samsung Captivate Glide] lambgx02:
They're not CWMR flashable images. You can either do an adb push of the .so to /system/lib/hw, or copy it manually using something like root explorer. Note that you must remount /system as read/write (mount -o remount,rw /system) before you begin.
[Samsung Captivate Glide] bakageta:
Specifically, for anyone who isn't familiar with how to do this, I'll give some newbie-friendly instructions. Copy the .so file to /sdcard, which is the internal memory unless you've changed something. Open a terminal emulator on the phone or an adb shell, and do the following:

su
mount -o rw,remount /system
mv /system/lib/hw/audio.a2dp.default.so /system/lib/hw/audio.a2dp.default.so.bak
cp /sdcard/audio.a2dp.default.so /system/lib/hw/audio.a2dp.default.so
chmod 644 /system/lib/hw/audio.a2dp.default.so

Reboot your device, and you'll be set. Make sure that you didn't get an error about a file not found or something before rebooting however, you don't want this to be missing. The only reason that would happen is if you didn't put the modified file at /sdcard/audio.a2dp.default.so, the root of the internal memory.

If for some reason you DID get an error, and can't figure out where you put the modified file, there's no reason to panic. Open up the adb shell or terminal, and you can put the original file back with the following:

mv /system/lib/hw/audio.a2dp.default.so.bak /system/lib/hw/audio.a2dp.default.so
[Samsung Captivate Glide] Necc86:
It's 53, like on most headsets:

root@android:/data/local # logcat | grep -i bitpool
D/A2DP ( 111): min_bitpool: 2
D/A2DP ( 111): max_bitpool: 53
D/A2DP ( 111): bitpool=53
[Samsung Captivate Glide] brunobbarcelos:
Can somebody make a ZIP to flash?
[Samsung Captivate Glide] thegreatergood:
done! :) .... Warning this will not make a backup of your current audio.a2dp.default.so .... tested on my device and it still boots ....
[Samsung Captivate Glide] lambgx02:
Thank you sir! :highfive:

For some reasons, it apparently also improved the data transfer speed on BT 3.0 hardware (hoping it isn't a placebo effect. :P ).

Since voice dialer is not included in ics 4.0 i was bummed out because I use my blueant q2 alot at work. It worked very well with GB but having updated to ICS CLH2 it doesn't work anymore so I purchased Cybertron Voice commander, but pressing the bluetooth button on the blueant q2 still did not work. I have to manually press the phone to launch the app. Seeing this thread I saw the cwmr fix(#3 on the list) and flashed it just to get the great sound. I'm not sure if anyone has discovered this but after the successful flash my blueant q2's command button on the headset now brings up the cybertron voice commander! Thank you OP for this awesome fix! With ICS, the keyboard fix and now this fix, my captivate glide is now usable my work! Awesome!

My nokia bh-503 didn't get any improvement. Hight treble sounds make a "sand" feeling on android. While on hp ipaq214 with a registry linespeed=400 key, I get sound with a much better quality without any distortion.
