*Crosses fingers before asking next question*

Is there an emmc CWM for CM10?

Last time I installed CM10 to sdcard with the correct version of gapps, I still got the Android keyboard issue, but I've got a backup and I'm willing to try CM10 on internal memory.
[Nook HD, HD+ General] leapinlar:
CWM does not care which version of CM you run. But to answer the question that I think you want the answer too, CM10 cannot not run on emmc, even if you try to restore an earlier backed up version with CWM.

[Nook HD, HD+ General] MonaLisaOverdrive:
Yup. That was the answer I was looking for.

*sigh*

So, is there a version of CM that will run on emmc in a Nook HD?
[Nook HD, HD+ General] leapinlar:
Yes, look here:

Thanks very much. I've been searching and reading and parsing for the past two hours...this has (hopfully...I haven't looked at the thread yet) saved me another two.

EDIT: Sigh. Yeah, I should've checked first. Saw that thread already. All of the links are broken...host site must be down.

At this point, I'm willing to go with CM9 if it means I can get a downloadable ZIP that I can flash to internal memory.

EDIT: Ironic. Looks like I'll be trying out Carbon after all.

Nope, CM10.1 only. Be patient the dev will get the links working soon.

Hi,

It seems that the server hosting most of the files (nook.rootshell.ru/hd/‎) isn't working any more. :( Can anyone please post working mirror for CWM for Nook HD+? Thanks a lot. :)

EDIT: Got it .... :)
[Nook HD, HD+ General] Nucking Futs!:
So been using it for the last couple of days. Everything runs fine except once in a blue moon if I'm switching back & forth between portrait & landscape mode, I get a reduced screen. It shrinks the screen top/bottom sides ~20% (portrait) & left/right sides ~10% (landscape) but when I reboot, all is fine. Its happened only twice so no big deal however, I'd like to know what's causing this. Thanks!

BTW, the Sony 8gb class 4 microSD card wasn't recognized while the Samsung 8gb class 4 microSD card was recognized the first time.

Install CM10.1 with just 2GB SD Card is possible

Install CM10.1 with just 2GB SD Card is possible. Just put the NookHDplus-bootable-CWM-6028-for-stock-small-rev4 with Win32DiskImager to the SD Card - and boot into CWM.

Unfortunatly the Imager just write a 120MB partition on SD Card and it is quit hard to delete this partition scheme.

I had do use PartedMagic for this. So keep bootet in CWM, pull the card and format it.

Best would be to have an Imager that is adapting to size of SD card...

After reformatting you put SD Card into NOOK and do Backup and Install as described.

I just installed the Google Minimal Apps - everything else can be done out of the Market.

BTW: I found description in first post a bit confusing, especially with links to other posts and there to find right file. Maybe in the meantime a few other files has been added there....

This is not really for dummys. Nevertheless, thanks for this effort to describe the precedure, I got it!

Help verygreen, leapinlar,or anyone!

I got my new Nook HD+ on Father's Day and soon after that I rooted it with CM 10,1 (verygreen's 2013615 unofficial version, latest

at the time). After a couple of days of enjoying it, I ran into trouble. The Nook started flashing and rebooting and settings app was stuck at "Language and Input" . I was worried about the misbehavior and went back to Stock 2.1.

A couple of days ago I rooted it again to CM 10.1 (verygreen's 2013712 unofficial version). After a couple of days of using and enjoying it, this morning, the Nook again started misbehaving. the symptoms were, unstable, zooming in and out, misreading the touch inputs, and again stuck in settings app at "Language and Input".

I only have standard apps and only few of them. I did scan the tablet with Avira and AVG for any malware mischief but the scans were clean. I have not reverted to Stock ROM yet. Now it is behaving fine.

This bizarre behavior happened at McDonald's where i have my morning coffee everyday. I read my emails and news over my coffee. However, I have used the Nook at Mickey D's most mornings without problems (except the two times I mentioned), so that is not (hopefully) the source!

No issues here as it took a few mins at most. Download it again to see if you get a better connection.

Hopefully, I can live with the smaller screen until all the Haswell-based Win8.1 tablets arrives in a few months.

[Nook HD, HD+ General] DCForever:
Leapinlar,

I followed your new steps for creating a cwm sd card (format, partition set to active, copy boot files, and image zip). Okay so the HD+ boots to Recovery Mode just fine. But when I go to install zip from sd card I get the following error.

CWM-based Recorvery v6.0.3.2

E: Can't mount /sdcard/

Am I doing something wrong? I just purchased this Nook HD+ today.

Oh and I went with your new method because everytime I tried to burn the boot image to the sd card it would convert my 16GB card to 116MB card. Tried with my 4GB card and it was converted to a 115MB card. So reformatted the 4GB card and then followed your new directions.

Can you help me out? I've been at this for hours trying different things and searching the internet. About to give up. I don't want to install it internally. I wont to run CM10 on just the SD card so when I remove it and reboot I will be back at stock rom.

Is it true that HD+ has 768mb instead of 1gb ram?

It has 1GB of ram, but only 768 is available to you. The rest is used by the operating system.

Yes, you are doing something wrong. This thread is for installing CM10.1 to internal memory, not SD. And my new procedure is also for creating an SD CWM for modifying internal memory (like stock), not installing a ROM to SD. So you are in the wrong thread.

Go to verygreen's SD thread. When you burn the correct image from verygreen's thread for installing to SD, it makes the SD only 116MB. This is the way it is supposed to be. You put the SD in the nook and boot and it creates the rest of the partitions so the SD can have CM10.1 installed on it. Go to verygreen's SD thread and follow the directions there.

Sent from my Nook HD+ running CM10.1 on emmc.
[Nook HD, HD+ General] DCForever:
Okay I understand. So the SD Card is supposed to be 116MB after burning the boot image. Then his instructions say to download and copy image file to Nook. But the card is now too small for other files so how exactly do I get the other downloaded files onto the Nook? He left out a step or something for a newbie. Do I just go to the same webpage on the Nook itself and download that way or is there some other step a developer would know, but as a noob I don't?

Any help will be much appreciated.

Thanks.
[Nook HD, HD+ General] Sherip:
Easiest way to get it on the Nook is to take out the SD card, boot the Nook OS, open a browser and download it. After that boot your SD card and when you elect to load a zip file select internal SD card and browse to the file under the 0 and download folders.

As I said in my earlier post, the SD gets re-partitioned to be useful as an SD install. The rest of the SD will be available to CM10.1 once it is installed.

Problem is when I take the card back out and put it in laptop it is still recognized as only a 116 MB card so there is no way for me to copy apps, books, pdfs, movies, etc to the card so that I can sideload them. Is there a way around this?
[Nook HD, HD+ General] leapinlar:
Yes, do not take it out of the nook. Plug in you USB cable to the PC while booted to CM10.1 and you can copy files there with windows explorer.

Unable to Boot using SD Card

Hi All,

This is my first post to XDA. You people are awesome and it is a great knowledge repository. Thanks ! :)

Now on to my issue, I am trying to load Cyanogen onto my Nook HD+ as described. It's a wonderful easy process.

What I have done till now is downloaded the file and made the bootable SD Card (8GB Sandisk).

What I am unable to is make Nook HD+ boot from the SD Card. It is always booting into Nook.

However, once it boots stock Nook, it does detect the SD card and I am see the contents using ES File Explorer on the SD Card.

If you look at title of my post , you will see that I agreed with you and then added my observations. They were not meant as a criticism of what you said.
[Nook HD, HD+ General] leapinlar:
He does not have you do all that because it is already included with the steps he does have you do.

A factory reset/wipe data (which he instructs you to do) is the same as formatting data, wiping cache and wiping dalvik cache. It formats /data and /cache (along with the dalvik caches that are stored there).

And the CM10.1 ROM zip formats /system as it installs the new ROM.

So you can see what you asked about is done in his instructions.

I have an hummingbird (nook HD)

IF I use the cwm-recovery-hummingbird-1.zip, drop the recovery.img in the root folder (well copy it) it will never boot to the sd (I have been trying for 6 hours now). IF I use the ovation version of the same, it will boot to the sd and bring up a recovery menu, however when I try to run it, I get a black screen an there it stays.

IF I swap out the MLO file and add flashing_boot.img I can get a menu but goes in circles. Please advise.

Used the following files: NookHD-bootable-CWM-6027-for-emmc-stock-4GB-rev3-(02.03.13) -build the image

added cm-10.1-20130719-UNOFFICIAL-hummingbird-emmc.zip as told

added cwm-recovery-hummingbird-1

added emmc-cwm-early2.1.img

added gapps-jb-20130301-signed.zip

never boots into the boot loader menu.

Yes since this has booted to the cyanogenmod boot loader screen once, I am sure that the card is formatted correctly. The volume size reads ~4gb as per the .img file used to create it.
[Nook HD, HD+ General] leapinlar:
You are putting too many files on the SD. You do not want or need the emmc-cwm-early2.1.img file or those MLO and flashing_boot.img files.

Just burn the 6027.img file (that you got by unzipping my zip file) to the SD with win32diskimager. Copy the cm-10.1...zip, the cwm-recovery-hummingbird-1.zip, and the gapps-jb....zip files to the burned SD (don't unzip them). Boot, and using the CWM menu, flash those three zips. That should be all you need.

Couldnt do anything tho.

I use the files you mention (and in my second post you can see exactly what I had on there) and it would not boot.

One card is asandisk 16gb class 6 or 8 not sure which, i just know it is not a class 10

the other is a kingston 16gb class 10

went to thread: 21895025 and used their software to get the bootable sd

applied the update.zip which essentially rooted my device

rebooted it

with the same sd card

Select the option to wipe data/factory reset.

Selected to clear cache

Select install zip from sdcard.

Select choose zip from sdcard.

i chose the one directly from the cyanogenmod site stable

then i loaded the google signed apps zip i found somewhere. Solved the problem of no apps.

[Nook HD, HD+ General] leapinlar:
Well, you have me totally confused now. And you never answered my question about having an HD (hummingbird) versus an HD+ (ovation). The HD is 7" in diagonal and the HD+ is 9".

That failure to validate error is because when it tries to flash a hummingbird zip, it checks to make sure you really have a hummingbird. That error plus the ability to boot with ovation files, makes me suspect you have an ovation.
