[Nook Color Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Nora D:
Hi, I'm really sorry if this is considered cross posting, but I'm starting to get desperate here and really need help. I'm on a deadline and running out of time, I need to figure this out somehow and have been bashing away for almost 24 hours now.

My question is in this thread - and is the last post.

I am actively online and working on this. I'm starting to consider just reverting to stock from the recovery partition and then building everything from scratch, but if I can avoid that time vampire I would like to. Does anyone know what's going on, have some ideas, or anything?

Next step, I'm going to try the 1Gb 5Gb repartition that Dean originally developed. Though with my Nook broken already and my inability to restore it to a working state despite having a ton of perfectly fine Nan backups, I have doubts as to whether anything will change there.

I'll monitor both threads. Thanks in advance for any guidance/help.

Edit: Still plugging away, last steps mentioned above didn't work. Next steps: I'm reading Leaping Lar's partition fix thread and getting some ideas. am going to try:

Flash Partition > Boot to CWR

Format > Flash to CWR

Flash Dizzy Den's signed 4.1 zip > Boot to CWR

Flash my Registered Nan backup of Stock 4.1. > Boot to MMC, get a look around

I think I already did this, but left out the last step. Might work as it should restore my registration data instead of starting me from an unregistered account. If it seems worth trying at that stage, I will then flash my registered Nan of 1.4.2 and get a look at that.

Speculation: I just realized, I've been trying to restore a backup of a rooted 1.4.2 over an unregistered 1.4.1 - which is what I keep getting reverted to. I don't know if that matters, but my hope is if I flash my registered backup over what I'm reverted to, then build up to registered 1.4.2, that will help things... We'll see.

Failing all of this, I will try Leapin' Lar's partition repair.

I have finished reading the Partition thread I linked to above (where my original post is) and found that one other person reported my issue, almost to the T. His/Her user name is Blondie. Blondie seems to have quit without a fix, or if ever got a fix it was never posted. It was quite some time ago, but if any of those who helped him/her can remember if there was a fix would you let me know what it was?
[Nook Color Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sagirfahmid3:
Screw the original nook firmware. Go install CM7 Mirage ROM.

Rooting a stock nook is pointless. CM7 is better, faster, more efficient than stock and it comes rooted by default.

Now that your serial number is probably gone or corrupted in the /rom partition, you most likely cannot register your nook with the B&N servers, and that is probably why you can't install apps.

If you need a complete partition table wipe, follow this guide. http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1759558

Next time you decide to mess around, be sure you backup your ROM and factory partition before doing anything.
[Nook Color Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Nora D:
I do have backups of everything. As I said above, they aren't wholly functional.

I never said I was completely unable to install apps, or that I couldn't register with B&N. I can register fine, and in some scenarios I can indeed download my apps just fine, just not if I try and restore a MN Nan backup. That is not because of a missing SN but because of a registration issue that can be caused by the MN process - otherwise I would not be able to download them at all in any scenario.

Also, if you know the MN process you know my factory partition is intact. Perhaps the partitioning messed with it a little, I'm not sure - but nowhere did I say I have yet tried to reset to stock from the factory partition, so we have no real way of knowing yet.

I understand that my OP is starting to get tl;dr because I don't want to double-post, but actually reading what has been done so far and reading the post at the original thread I linked to might be more useful in trying to give people advice. A little less snark would be useful too, I am not a n00b at this by a long shot and talking down to people tends to get hackles up instead of being productive - especially when you clearly haven't read their thread - as an example, if you had read it, you would have seen I already know about Leapin' Lar's partition fix and it's one of the next things I plan to try..

On the other hand, I may take your suggestion about installing CM7 Mirage. Honestly, I had my reasons for not doing that in the past, but those reasons are largely moot today. I will get a look at the thread. Thank you for the suggestion.
[Nook Color Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sagirfahmid3:
You're right, I apologize for not reading thoroughly. I had a derp :eek: moment.
[Nook Color Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Nora D:
No worries Sagirfahmid, I owe you an apology too. I'm sorry to have jumped on you, I am a little bit... stressed, and tired. Not that it's any great excuse. I need to take my own advice about talking to people. :p Sorry.

And fwiw, I believe you are right and the original partition did mess with the factory partitions, I've just been avoiding facing it. I really ought to get off the fence and run the repair and then follow Dean's guide to using fdisk on the emmc, but I'm getting OCD about trying every other thing first - even down to considering a flat reset to factory and rebuild from scratch. Stupid, I know.

Thing is, there is at least one other person out there who had this exact problem, and it didn't sound like her issue ended up being a corrupt partition as the partition repair didn't help her. Unless it was too corrupted. I know there were a lot of people running the same system as me, and it was very stable. Someone besides me and one other person has to know what this is and how to deal with it. That's what I'm hoping anyway. LOL

And seriously, thank you again for the reminder that there are other options out there that might better suit me now. The more I read the more I think if I can just reset the darned thing to a fully working state, I may well just do an SD CM10... or should I just stick with Mirage? Is there an advantage to Mirage over 10.2?
[Nook Color Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sagirfahmid3:
Yes definitely. It's faster--that's the most obvious advantage. (I disabled all the fancy animations and removed a lot of useless system apps like the phone, contacts, calendar, camera, and GPS app via adb).

Also, CM7 Mirage has USB host mode, so if you get a male microUSB to female standard USB port, it is very possible to use a keyboard or mouse, or a flashdrive or harddrive (if you get a powered hub). AFAIK, the max current it can supply without a powered hub is 100mA (enough for a flashdrive or keyboard/mouse that isn't too fancy--skip the ones with LEDs; each LED uses around 15mA).

Oh yeah, CM10 runs in phone UI (there's an extra bar on top taking up space).

In CM7, there's only 1 bar, so you have a bigger area on the screen. Of course, there is a patch to get CM10 into tablet mode, but I don't like all the hassle.

On CM7, you can overclock the CPU to 1.2GHz, but on CM10, it's limited to 1.1GHz AFAIK.

=====================================================

Right now, I'm hoping to get Debian ARM natively installed on the Nook Color. I've been making progress thanks to the devs and users here. Android is still required, but it will be on top (instead of the other way around, which is Android on top and Debian chrooted). SInce they'll be using the same kernel, I think I can get Debian to use the Nook Color's USB port to connect devices like printers or scanners (that would be so awesome...).

If you're interested in running full blown Debian on the NC, and assuming that you are able to fix yours, you can check out this thread: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2422518
[Nook Color Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sagirfahmid3:
I'm a cheapskate, that's the truth. I am a geek, I want to do **** with my devices and I don't care if I end up bricking them so long as there are ways to recover. I also care about my privacy. I don't stick with the stock firmware because:

1. B&N wants you to REGISTER with your CREDIT CARD to be able to actually USE the Nook Color. Why the hell?

2. B&N possibly has BACK DOORS to your Nook Color. They might DRM lock apps or something. They can obviously force updates onto their users unless they root. They might also decide it's time to brick your tablet if they wanted, so you would go buy another one (yes, this is more of a conspiracy theory, but hey, if they can force updates, they surely can also do this).

3. B&N's custom Android is crippled unless you root. You can't use the 5GBs of space. Why the hell not?

etc etc...there are more reasons I don't stick with any stock firmware, be it for a tablet or phone.

(I use Debian on my computer most of the time now because Windows is a piece of crap. You can't do whatever you want on it, except game. Did I mention the useless startup services and apps you need, especially antivirus, for Windows to function without worries of getting a keylogger or some nasty virus? Valve has made Steam for Linux very usable, and I rarely use Windows for gaming now. Linux is tons faster, and I can do almost anything on it).

Have you ever used a T-Mobile smartphone? the apps that come installed are numerous! It makes me want to puke every time I use a stock Android phone from a phone company. I like and want my devices to only contain the apps I want. That means NO BACKDOORS, NO FISHY BACKGROUND PROCESSES, NO **** APPS, NO RESTRICTIONS.

======================================================

Backup the documents and whatever you have on your B&N firmware. Install CM7.2 Mirage onto INTERNAL SD card.

Stop being a wuss :silly: and start enjoying a better Android experience.
[Nook Color Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sagirfahmid3:
Nah, CM ROMs have great battery life these days. I get 10 hours on my Nook Tablet (CM10, 4700mAH battery AFAIK); 8 hours on my Nook Color (CM7, 4000mAH battery. Obviously, it's going to have a slightly lower battery life). Also, keep in mind the li-ion battery is almost a year older than the Nook Tablet, so it has a decreased charge capacity. Li-ion's have a lifespan of 3 to 5 years--after than, you're gonna get crappy runtime on battery. Good news is li-ions are very recycle-able and non-toxic. I think most major electronics stores accept li-ions for free.

The only issue with stability is that, if you have wi-fi set to "always on" in CM7, sometimes you'll get a SOD (screen of death) after an extended period of sleep. Basically, your screen will fail to turn on--you must force power off and restart the NC. The guaranteed workaround is to set the wi-fi setting to "only when screen is on." You can safely overclock your CPU to 1GHz (+200MHz past stock 800MHz) guaranteed, and 1.2GHz almost guaranteed (I have mine at 1.2GHz, no freezes or crashes at all, and I run Debian chrooted in it currently, which takes a lot of power).

All CM builds can transfer apps' storage location to the external microSD if you wish. I have all my games and non-essential apps on my 32GB class 10 microSD, both on my NC and NT. Again, don't forget, the CM7 build for NC has USB host mode (so if you were really crazy, you could possibly plug in a 3TB+ mechanical harddrive, with a powered hub of course). Don't forget, the Nook Color also has bluetooth (which isn't there on B&N software). I have successfully transferred files between my netbook and my NC via bluetooth (but you have to be within 1 to 2 feet distance lol, unless you tear apart the NC and mod an antenna or something). You can also use an external bluetooth GPS receiver and bluetooth headset. Go look on the NC accessories thread if interested.

Good idea. Install CM7 on your niece's NC (INTERNALLY :silly: ) and see how you like it. I guarantee you'll like it, and so will she. Since you messed with the partitions, I would suggest you visit the CM7.2 Mirage thread and post if the changes in partition sizes should make any problems with flashing.
[Nook Color Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Nora D:
Thank you for all this great info! I had read about the SOD issue, but I usually keep my wifi off when not using it, so I'm not too worried about that - it helps battery life some too. Interesting, I hadn't realized lion batts had that limited a lifespan. I haven't noticed a whole lot of change in my own NC's life, but to be honest I haven't looked either. I should.

Regardless, great to know CM is better at battery life.

Actually, that brings up the issue of class 2 vs class 10 cards and stability. There are a few threads that have benchmarked SD cards for running CM ROMS and have found the best and most stable - especially for large cards - is a 16 Gb Cl2 SanDisk... it looked by recent discussions that this is still the case, have you noticed this at all? My card is also Cl10, and as of now I think I would want to run CM off of an SD, at least until I'm used to it.

Turns out I didn't mess with my partitions after all. Gotta love computer systems! LOL Turns out the issue was version of stock I was running, and only that. I re-registered, updated to 4.3 stock and all is fine. You would think I would learn one day to read, step away and consider, instead of banging my head against a wall repeatedly. I should have figured it out much sooner, Leapinlar basically spelled it out for the other member who had this problem. And it completely explains the issues I had too. :p I may end up messing with them correctly again though. :)

I did not know the NC ended up having a blue tooth after all! I remember the speculation but the teardowns had only begun then and I never followed up on them. Now that IS interesting!

My Niece's on the other hand does have a corrupted partition, but from something she did to it. I think I will flash CM to the emmc, nice idea! :)

Active Notifications on the X and Mini act differently because of the Mini's LCD screen. I posted a short video showing the difference: http://youtu.be/UWZUy_arQf0. I posted same video on Android Central, but thought it might be of interest to folks on here debating between the Vzw X and the Mini.

I returned my Droid maxx on vz to go a family plan att moto maker. I loved the maxx but solo plan was too pricey, on the family plan i dropped my sprint plan, returned the maxx and got a moto x custom on att. To be honest if other carriers offered the moto maker i would have kept my sprint plan, droid maxx was great but not worth the price unless i could get users to share the price. I hope moto gets the nexus 5 and offers the maxx and x at nexus pricing.

imagine the motorola droid maxx battery with kevlar back - on a slightly larger moto x form, 4.9" screen curved kevlar back, i can do without moto maker to get the off contract nexus price structure. I dropped the motorola droid maxx which many people dont realize is motorola droid ultra maxx to not confuse with previous lines. to get the moto x. They have the same specs but i find the smaller phone provides more stable camera use, i miss the extreme 2 day battery use i got on the maxx but like the shared family price on att.

[7" Kindle Fire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] stunts513:
Oh you have twrp, you could just "adb push" a stock rom on there from the development section, but if you're going to take the kffa or kfsrt route with flashing stock, just go into twrp, hit reboot, then hit bootloader, it should go into fastboot. It will probably restore stock recovery though, not sure i haven't use either of the tools mentioned before, so you might have to reinstall that.

just pulled it back from the FIRE

Ok just got it back working, followed your advice and started looking for post about using the sideloading option in the TWRP to push stock OS 7.4.6 to the SD card, found one that gave the adb code to push, im new so i dont know stuff like that "adb sideload C;/desktop/kfhd7-amizon-os-kfhd7.4.6.zip"

Don't know why all the file locations were empty when i tried to use TWRP consol the instructions in the post said reboot after everything else

when i did it would not reboot into system and if i tried to install a zip could not find a file in there anywere witch is wieard because all file came back when i pushed the kfhd7.zip to the sd card even the disk img on my sd card?

anyway all's good that ends well ..........

dont think ill try it again soon on my 7hd

maybe one more time on the one im sending back to amizon its dead i should have a cable by tus so ill try and bring it back to life if only to make sure theres nothing there for techs to refuse my warenty just a big blank space.:good:

i"ve been flashing roms since 2011

installed viper4.0 , flashed boot.img from the zip file

and the phone keeps rebooting to recovery !

All other roms work perfectly !

tried flashing it 3-4 times , same problem

its the 1st time i encounter such problem !

i really like viperx and its the only rom thats actually worth having !

Please someone help me t fix the Problem :crying:
[HTC One X] elsworth1983:
Hi, what's your recovery version, Try DL a fresh rom again. Extract the boot img from the viper zip and place it in your fastboot folder copy the viper zip over to your SD card on your hox. Reboot Into bootloader in terminal/cmd prompt navigate to platform-tools folder and terminal type fastboot erase cache then fastboot flash boot boot.img , then select htboot on your hox then recovery should show up hit recovery. In recovery do a factory reset (not SD card) then go to install viperX zip when aroma pops up follow on screen prompt with the kernel ? Select viper supplied then hopefully reboot and enjoy some venom.

Hey Bro thanks for ur time ..

i do know all what u said , i've been doing this for the last 2 years ..

i flashed the boot.img from the Viperx Zip

am currently on Blade sense 5 rom
