[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] Bewitching:
It's been awhile since I've done anything root/rom related, so I am just a bit rusty. (And I apologized for the long post).

I have no problems following directions, just need to find them. I have searched, but I have been on so many posts/pages, my head is spinning:p at this point.

Background:

Back in 2012 I rooted and installed everything internally on EMMC. (CWM, etc...)

I decided I wanted to go back to stock OS and run alt OS system from SD Card. I decided on this: CM10.2 Jellybean (Android 4.3) for Nook Tablet (IMG/SDC Boot) (22AUG2013) for an SD card.

(On that post, he has a boot zip and an image file for the 10.2.0-RC0_09AUG2013_HD_SDC_IMG. version. No image for the (22AUG2013) version.)

So, I used the file from this post: [Stock Firmware]Restore Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet 16G 1.4.0 from SDCard and was able to get back to stock, no problem. Currently running Nook OS version 1.4.2

I formatted a SD Card using SDFormatter, and burned the above mentioned image (10.2.0-RC0_09AUG2013_HD_SDC_IMG) using win32diskimager-v0.9-binary.

My dilemma:

The Nook will not boot from the SD Card. I put the SD Card in the Nook. I tried starting it normal, (power button only), and it booted to stock.

I tried the power & n (home) key, release power while holding n key, still boots to stock.

So, I added the boot file to the SD Card, first just the unzipped boot file, then I copied all the files in the boot folder straight to the card.

Same result, boots to stock. Tried booting with USB plugged into computer. Still boots to stock.

So, I read a little more, and flashed the repart.img, thinking maybe some of my previous root files were hanging around somewhere inside.

Did the same sequence burning the files on the SD Card as before. Same results. Nook always boots stock.

Can someone direct me to a post, or a solution, that I may have missed in my endless search on here? :confused:

I don't want to root if I don't have to. Everything I'm reading seems to indicate that I should be able to boot from an SD Card.

Am I missing a step? Do I have to run the Block OTA's first? At this point I am so confused.

Currently running Nook OS version 1.4.2

(Thanks to anyone who reads this whole thing. I just wanted to list everything I did.)

I can't see any mention of the standard boot from sd for troublesome Tablets: Turn off device, insert card, then insert USB cable connected to wall adapter.
[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] digixmax:
+1.

The power source doesn't have to be an wall adapter, PC or a connected USB hub would work just as well.
[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] Bewitching:
So, I tried the wall socket method, and same non-results.

I am going to partition the SDcard and build it with the cm_acclaim_10.2.0-RC0_22AUG2013_HD_SDC files and see if that works.

We'll see how that goes :D

Thanks for the replies from both of you. Glad to know someone is willing to help with my quandry :eek:
[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] Bewitching:
SOLVED

Well, it worked using the partitioned card! Maybe I just got a bad download of the rom image file.

Thank you guys again for the replies. Greatly appreciated !

I want to get myself a new SD Card for my Magician:

I will choose between a standard 1 GB SD Card and the SanDisk UltraII SD 1GB

First of all, does it really make the difference if i take the UltraII? How much faster is it anyway? It would cost me almost 50% more.

Secondly, can the Magician even handle the Ultra? Are cards up to 2GB even supported?

Or should I consider a bigger card?

Currently I've got a 256 Sandisk standard....
[JAM, MDA Compact, S100 General] divingsheep:
SD cards

In general you probably won't see the speed deference between the basic and ultra on a PDA, because of the speed of the interface.

If you use a card reader (using USB 2 interface) then you will see the speed increase.

Personally, I've just bought a Sandisk 1GB Ultra plus card:

http://www.picstop.co.uk/Secure-Digital-(SD)/SanDisk-Ultra-II-(USB)-SD-Plus-Card---1GB

Will have to wait and see how good it is!

Apparently 4GB sd cards are coming soon, which should drop the price of the 1GB cards even further.

[JAM, MDA Compact, S100 General] jklny:
If you going with a 2gb card - go with the sandisk ultra... I purchased an A-Data 2gb 150x and it does not work.

SanDisk Ultra are good cards.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bab88:
Hi

I have recently started having a problem with what I presume to be the battery of my Nexus 4. It seems to have started suddenly about a week ago, though was working absolutely fine before. I don't think it was due to any specific app having been installed. I have also done a factory reset on it, but that didn't solve the problem.

Basically, the battery will discharge to about 75%. The phone will then suddenly switch off; turning the phone back on, it simply shows the battery to be fully depleted and switches off. If I plug it into a power source, the phone turns back on and begins charging, from 0%, though seems to suddenly fully charge it within about half an hour.

My phone has not been rooted.

I would really appreciate any help/advice on this issue as it is incredibly frustrating having to have my phone almost permanently on charge.

I have attached two screenshots of the battery usage graph.

Thanks!
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] im4eversmart:
If you are on stock, try flashing the stock image(4.2 or 4.3 up to you) there's plenty of threads on here thatll guide you thro the process.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kcaan:
I've had the same issue about three times, during the first week of using my Nexus 4 (about half a year ago). I've already had my mind made up to RMA it, but waited for it's shut-off to happen once more to collect some evidence of this problem and... it never happened again. I'm pretty confident that I didn't install anything that might have helped (I only installed BetterBatteryStats to check the instant drain, but really doubt it could change anything, it's just statistics), and I've never factory wiped the phone's data yet.

I've been searching for answers around the internet back in May, but never found anything of value, so my only advice is... wait a little, and if it doesn't get better itself return it to the merchant. My previous HTC phone was restarting almost everyday from the first day I bought it, until a month later I returned it for warranty repairs and after they changed almost all internals of the phone it never crashed again (till today, since I still use it as GPS and media player when running).

Maybe it's CWM recovery s fault

Turning on the phone after charging, after LG logo the screen doesn't go on I can just unblock it with a hard reset. Any solution, to solve it? It s like I do it every time I turn it on after charge. what can be the problem the room (cyanogenmod 10.1.2) it seems working very well... I m a little worried

Flash the recovery.img for your device. You can do it via cwm(if someone made a flashable zip),use rom manager or rom toolbox or you can do it via adb.

Hi!

I´m trying to unlock my phone from my network provider, which is Three Sweden. However, to be able to unlock and use other networks, you have to be stock.

So does anybody know how to revert to stock with H3G_G04? Is there a RUU or nandroid available? I´m currently on Blade Sense 5 ROM with Hboot 1.39.

Please help!

Finally rooted my s3, when I first tried to flash cm 10 I was getting an install aborted message. A post on this forum suggested tryong twrp instead of clockwork so I downloaded goo manager. I downloaded cm 10 and gapps through twrp and started by wiping. When I went to flash couldnt find the files for cm 10 so went to restore so I could start over...discovered my clockwork backup wouldnt work with twrp(rookie mistake lol) so reflashed clockwork so I could restore and start over. Redownloaded cm 10 and gapps with twrp checking the filepath for the save this time. Problem is I cant get twrp to be my boot recovery so that I can save a nandroid with it and try flashing the rom.ive tried setting the boot recovery to twrp with clockwork itself,tried rebooting through goo, tried setting twrp to default with rom toolbox, tried rebooting with twrp manager and finally uninstalled clockwork ....no matter what my boot recovery is clockwork .how can I get twrp to load as boot recovery so I can save a backup with twrp and try flashing cm 10? Flashed roms on old devices before and never had this much trouble.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] DMF1977:
Did u have the latest cwm recovery (6.0.3.6) installed when u originally tried to flash? I have never had an issue with cwm, and until I do, I'm not switching to twrp. Which version of cm 10 specifically were u trying to flash?
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] tenpin416:
I had the latest version of cwm and I am trying to flash the latest stable release of cm 10, 10.1.2 I believe
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] DMF1977:
Is it android 4.2.2 or 4.3? Pretty sure u have to update to the latest bootloader for 4.3...
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] tenpin416:
After doing some reading I think the abort is caused by having the older ics bootlaoder.ive never had to update one before so im a bit hesitant. ..do you know if I update and try to switch back to my original restore or to a different rom (other than cm 10) Will I have to change the bootloader back again or will I run into a greater chance of problems in the future?

So I'm currently talking with Google and waiting on an email back to see their response...On any grey or dark surface, I have a white banding on either side of the screen that runs the height of it. I also experience some burn in with my calendar widget (due to the white boxes on it). You can see them in the one photo. It almost looks as they've burned in through the settings menu.

Has anyone else experienced the same issue?

I thought it might be normal at first but I compared it to my wife's N4 and her display is flawless!

From what I know, yes. As long as your status says normal and not modified.

[JAM, MDA Compact, S100 General] jammit:
This morning when I turned on my imate jam, it immediately went into a hard reset. Once I had a chance, I checked the battery levels and the unit claimed my main battery was at 67%, and my backup battery was zero%

I have had my Jam 9 months and have never had this sequence of problems before. The screen was not left on overnight, and there were no applications left running.

Can someone help me understand how the backup battery could be drained and the main battery be OK? Has anyone else seen this behaviour?

It will take me several days now to 'rebuild' my Jam with all its apps and settings......
[JAM, MDA Compact, S100 General] fgdt:
Had the same problem with my JAM. Happened about a month ago for the first time and then again today.

Oh man, that's the worst :( Coincedentally I've had a sudden HR myself only yesterday when I restarted my laptop with phone still connected via USB. Luckily I make a full backup every couple of days using Sprite backup. Works like a charm, not a thing lost, everything was put back as it was before the HR :D
[JAM, MDA Compact, S100 General] fgdt:
I upgraded to version 1.12.00 WWE.

Everything went well until yesterday

Still the same problem

No response on using the on/off switch only a clicking sound sometimes. LED indicator flashing red.

Soft reset no effect

Had to hard reset.

After booting up - backup battery 0% and main battery 75%.

I phoned the distributers in South Africa and they think it might be a battery problem :wink: . I am loading my new battery for the required 8 hours tonight. Will post again in about a week to report on progress

I also use Sprite Backup and set it to do a backup every night. It works very well a restore my system without any problems
[JAM, MDA Compact, S100 General] ringp3ace:
I have an MDA Compact, I am also on ROM Version: 1.12.00 WWE, and have the same problem.

There again, I had the same problem before I upgraded recently too, so I can't say for sure whether it is a ROM problem.

Like the other posts, I am very careful not to leave BT, incoming beams, backlight etc. on. I also shutdown any running programs I am not using.

Yesterday, I had to do a full restore (using the Backup.stg file over ActiveSync) which worked a treat. Still, I am very frustrated over this intermittant backup battery drain problem. Especially when the Main Battery is showing over 90% full.

This "feature" seems to be a common problem.

Any other thoughts?

One week with a new main battery and .....

So far so good. No need for any hard resets this week :D

Had a message of low backup battery once after installing SysWatch Trial but system power utility showed full backup battery. Hopefully this was only a software problem as i didn't get it again after uninstalling syswatch.

I have similiar problem since 3 weeks ago

HI,

My Imate Jam has rom version R 1.12 D 1.13 WWE

and since a month ago it started showing 0% backup battery.

I called PPCTECHS because they upgraded my jam to 128RAM and they told me to force a hard reset.

I did it and it worked for a coupled of days but jumped from 0% to 100%.

Then anytime I do a SOFT reset it shows me the message BACKUP BATTERY VERY LOW and the led is always flashing while the pocket is off or on 24 hrs a day!!.

I will buy another main battery and try your recomendation.

I am very desperated.
[JAM, MDA Compact, S100 General] O2mini_noob:
The led on my Magician is always flashing as well when the pocket is off or on

24 hours a day, on battery use.

The "backup battery" is the internal battery of the device and as far as I know is not user replaceable. The purpose of the backup battery is to give you 35-40 minutes to change the main battery before you lose everything in RAM. Replacing your main battery will not resolve the backup battery issue.

PPC Techs give 6 months warranty on their workmanship so if the backup battery issue occurred after the upgrade..contact them again and see if they can do something about it.

I already ordered a new battery, but will contact PPCTECHS anyway. Thanks

I think it's a common problem. I bought a O2 XDA mini in German last year. And when it was shipped to China. I flashed GER rom to CHS1.3 Rom. When I got it, this problem still happen. As I checked it, it's backup battery problem. So today my colleague brought it back to German. Because my O2 XDA mini still under warranty. Because there are two years warrranty for O2 XDA mini in German. I hope they can help me solve this disgusting problem.
[JAM, MDA Compact, S100 General] JamesManios:
I had a similar AND slightly different problem. My phone died to a hard reset and then turned off soon afterwards. Instead of a red flashing light, I had a CONSTANT red light, (I think this means hardware problem???)

I removed the battery and re-installed it, did the hard reset keys, everything and the unit would not turn on. I charged it for one day straight, still would not respond. I then charged it for another day. Still nothing, (except for the constant red light). I had plugged it into the USB cradle and the battery charger separately but nothing helped.

I then (2 days later) plugged it into the USB cable at work, and this is where it gets REALLY weird!

The unit turned on, but the LCD has flashing, (like a loose connection), alternating between difference brightness it seemed. Once the hard reset stuff was over, I check the battery and the backup was at 28% and the main battery was at 94%.

As I left the unit to charge, (with the screen still flickering like crazy) it screen got better and better, though it sometimes still flickers a little.

Now, (2 weeks later) the batteries seem fine, I haven't had a battery issue since but this is the STRANGEST part!!! I can not increase the brightness beyond the third tick. If I move the brightness beyond that, it doesn't get ANY brighter! So I'm basically stuck right now at 3 brightness level only!

I tried a friends battery, and it was exactly the same, (brightness level), so I don't think it’s the main battery. Anyone have ANY ideas???

Hello

I had this problem for quite a few months,i did what some of u did and i bought a new main battery, and the backup battery was back to life again from 0% to 100%.

But everytime that i take off the main battery all my data goes in the same way as before even when the meters say that is on 100%.

Can anyone tell me why?is that a hardware problem with the backup battery?

if it is how can i get this battery? i've being searching on the internet and i couldnt find any shop that sells just one unit of this battery (Varta V18hrt).

P.S : If you have backup battery problem and don't want to loose all the data, plug it to the wall out let and then remove your main battery to change simcard or what not... than you won't lose the data.
