My wife and I have Nook Colors and I recently decided to root mine using AutoNooter. I went through all the steps, crossed referenced the steps with other sites, and went through the steps again. Here's the problem I run into; upon inserting the microSD card into the NC(while off)and plugging it into the computer using the USB cable the darn thing won't boot up.

Everything I've tried:

-a different SD card(I have now tried a 4GB PNY microSDHC and a 2G Sandisk microSD.....and a generic microSD card from my cellphone)

-I've tried loading the image from different sites and using different browsers

-I've tried different imaging software

-I've tried using BOTH mine and my wifes NC.

-I've tried it from 2 different laptops(a Toshiba and a Gateway)

-I've tried downloading the image from both laptops integrated disk reader using an adapter and I've tried loading it using an external USB card reader that reads/writes a microSD directly without needing an adapter.

-I've tried de-registering the NC and re-registering.

-I've let the NC sit for an hour while plugged in.

NOTHING. The light on the USB cable goes from amber to green....which is where the whole process ends.

-I'm running firmware v1.1.0 therefore I'm using AutoNooter 3.0

-I tried it a while back when running 1.0.1 using AutoNooter 2.12.25 with the same results. I'm getting impatient waiting for B&N's rumored update so I decided to try again.

-I do know how to format the SD card so that is not the problem

It's gotta be something simple. PLEASE HELP! Thanks for taking the time to read this. So frustrated:confused:

I used autonooter yesterday on my nc, and it never did reboot. I waited awhile, then just unplugged, turned it on and the android came up.

I did not care for it so I then did the emmc version of custom froyo 6.8 (as I will never use the NC for how it was intended) and am in hog heaven.
[Nook Color General] donballz:
Sorry if you already know this but nothing happens when you boot the autonooter image. The screen stays black. All the magic just happens in the background. All the basic nooter does is enable side loading apps. Some of the others to more. Find your favorite apk and try

adb install myApp.apk

If it works then so did nooter. Find a launcher and go nuts.
[Nook Color General] Kayak83:
Same here. I thought I botched the install but the android showed up eventually when it finally booted and I'm running market apps so i know it worked. Very weird though.
[Nook Color General] Taeseong:
I don't think autonooter has any coding in it to prompt the screen to turn on to let you know its installing, but usually (at least in windows) when you plug in your Nook you can hear it mount to the computer...I usually wait for this, leave it on then unplug//remove the uSD card and boot up my Nook.
[Nook Color General] chris peas:
What are you using to "burn" the .img to the SD card? If you see the same file written to the card after burning, its not imaged properly. I had this problem the night I bought my nook and it drove me nuts. Use WinImage. From the top menu select Disk>> Restore virtual hard disk image to virtual drive>> select SD card>> select file. The burn should take about 10 secs and you should see a file system structure on the card when opened. If you get an error that the file is in use when you go to burn it, log out, log in and try again or reboot. Burning the image is key, the rest is cake.
[Nook Color General] rmbriggs:
I've used WinImage 8.5 and Win32DiskImager. I know it has to be an issue with the image but the files on the sd card after it's been written look identical to screen shots I've seen of the image on multiple "how to" websites. How long did you wait before the NC booted up?
[Nook Color General] rmbriggs:
According to NookDevs when using the latest autonooter for use with NC firmware v1.1.0 the NC will boot up automatically once it's connected to the usb cable after a few minutes. Not to be confused with the previous autonooter for use with firmware v1.0.1 where you connect, let sit for 10 minutes, then boot after removing from the usb cable and the sd card. Tried that one too with no luck.
[Nook Color General] rmbriggs:
I never get to the point of seeing the new boot up process, skipping log-in, logging in to youtube, enabling softkeys, etc. It's funning that I quote the sequence without actually having done it. It's because I've read the steps so many times.. So frustrating!
[Nook Color General] chris peas:
You have to connect it to a PC to initiate the boot from SD. You should connect it to a pc where its NEVER been connected to before. A few things you can try. Connected to the PC, hold down the nook's power button for up to a minute. Did you hear a chime on the PC as if you connected a device to it? No? Next, open device manager on your PC with the nook connected. From the Action menu >> scan for new hardware. Did it find anything new? Do see anything with the name "gadget" or portable gadget in the device list? Right click, delete it. Again, scan for new hardware. Did windows find new hardware now? Did it boot from SD? Try plugging into a different PC. This is THE ctritical step.

I had this problem when i wiped my device and rerooted. Because the device drivers were already installed, my nook wouldn't boot n root. Chances are you connected it to your PC before attempting to root. You have to get windows to detect as a new device and the PC should fail to load the drivers. If you get that far with no luck, keep deleting the device from device manager and reconnecting it with the cable. Hope this helps...
[Nook Color General] rmbriggs:
Went this route and couldn't be happier with the result. Thanks so much for your input!
[Nook Color General] icepixie:
OP I have the same issues as you, very frustrating!

How did you solve the problem in the end?

edit: NM figured it out. :D

I went from bionix v 1.2 to frost and then went back and now 3g is really slow I am not running a lag fix and have tried different modems and have not been thoddeled any ideas thanks
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] oka1:
Try speed test and try different servers (change in settings) Also, make sure you do not have anything running the background. If the problem persists, you may need to Odin back to stock and then reflash, that will clear it up for sure

[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] patrick92260:
Im interested in getting the atrix from att, however I know of the issue where custom ROMS may never happen for this phone because of the locked bootloader.

Since att has locked down the mobile hotspot app to verify you have a tethering plan (I have unlimited data) and since they also disable the option to install non market apps, would it be possible to flash the firmware from the Bell version of the atrix when it is released in a few days onto the att version? The only reason i think this would work is because technically it is still an official ROM, just for a different region. Does anyone know if this will work? This will probably be the deciding factor in whether I decide to get this phone...
[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] NguyenHuu:
any reason why you do not want to root? it only takes one click of the rooting program and you can do both of what you want (tether and sideload). There's really no harm in it, plus the rooting program lets you unroot if needed. clean simple. way safer than trying to flash a rom meant for a different region that could possibly brick your device.
[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] patrick92260:
will superone click root put the option to install non market apps back in the phone settings or do you still need to sideload the apks? the only thing i have heard with getting around the tethering restriction was to create a new apn which many people have said is unreliable...
[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Saschwatch:
There is an option after rooting to make the phone natively install non-market apps.
[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] NguyenHuu:
To install non-market apps is what sideloading means. you do via other sources such as the sdcard, from email, or adb if you want. you dont need an option in settings to allow you to do this. the root program will set it up for you if you select it after you are done rooting.

For tethering, it will depend on the APN set. so even if you install bell's rom, you still need to setup apn's to access at&t's network, the same apn settings you are gonna use anyways.
[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rajeshr:
The one advantage would be that upload speeds (hopefully) won't be capped on the Bell version as they are on the AT&T versions.
[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] neotekz:
i dont think it would even be possible to flash bell's atrix firmware with the bootloader locked...
[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] patrick92260:
I hope just because it is still an official firmware there is some way to trick the phone into flashing it. I am very familiar with HTC phones and on those all you need to do is remove the CID (Carrier Identification) protection to flash any official (not custom) ROMS from another carrier or region. Does anyone know if Moto phones have something similar to this?
[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] DarkRyoushii:
A similar thing with my OLD Nokia E63 running symbian.. all I had to do was change something called a Product Code to one of a different carrier/region and then run nokia's updater which would then flash that carrier's/region's FW onto my phone, I know android is different as well as different brands, but if HTC and Nokia have a hidden backdoor, who's saying moto doesn't? ;)
[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Athailias:
Even if we cant flash the whole rom, we can use it's dump as a source for apk mods.
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] mwilleman:
I see there are a few threads about rooting this version of the hero, but for a new person like me, I have a more questions. What do I need to do to my phone before I start the rooting process? Do I need to back stuff up, if so, how? any tips or thoughts would be helpful.
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] pulser_g2:
You would be best to check out the hero forums and ask in Hero Q&A.

As you are on android 1.5, there's a few ways to root it :)
[Nook Color Themes and Apps] adunofaiur:
Hello!

I'm using Autonootered 1.1 and Asphalt 5 HD showed up in the marketplace for $1! It failed to load the intro video, so I deleted LOGO.MP4 from the directory it was stored in (I think sdcard/data/gameloft/games/asphalt5, but it wasn't hard to find) and it loaded perfectly! It is very smooth, and I have a feeling that if any other video problems arise deleting them should work.

Hurry to buy it while it is on sale!
[Nook Color Themes and Apps] xBryan:
thanks for heads up, just picked it up for a buck
[Nook Color Themes and Apps] avi!:
Thank you ! gotta try this now
[Nook Color Themes and Apps] zeebone:
I tried getting it working on nookie Froyo 0.6.8 but no luck. I even tried deleting the video file, but it just kicks me out saying it can't load the video.

Any ideas on how to get it working on Froyo?
[Nook Color Themes and Apps] Hubmanx:
I bought this today . Installed then wants to download additional files. Tells me it cannot download the data apk . Not compatible blocked.

I have N/C auto-nooter 3.0 1.1 .

Any ideas why ?
[Nook Color Themes and Apps] Cheese Masterj:
Version 3.1.8 works fine for me, I'm running 0.68 Froyo emmc. I had no luck with other versions of Asphalt, including both the one dollar version from the market, and the 5 dollar version from Gameloft's site.
[Nook Color Themes and Apps] Paul22000:
Anyone get this working on CM7?
[Nook Color Themes and Apps] capnblackleg:
downloaded, installed and it says I need to install another program in order to run it, I hit ok and it fails. Anyone seen this?

Edit- got it to install, needed an sd card in. Kicks me out at launch, no error. Deleted the intro vid, didn't work.
[Nook Color Themes and Apps] Hubmanx:
How exactly do you find sdcard/data/gameloft/games/asphalt5 ? I am new to the android world any help pointing me it the right direction would be appreciated.

Update : Found it connect to computer using usb cable look at contents of sd card , gameloft . deleted logo.mp4 now loads and works although froze on my 3 rd lap on first run . Will try again .

Okay , need another work around running auto-nooter 3.0/2.1 , Uninstalled , reinstalled , removed logo.mp4 . But now game wants to download missing file to continue , once download will not open . Looks like for me only worked the first time. any other ideas to get this to work .

* / For those who get the error message incompatible file or device will not load apk , go to NooK Color Tools , and check , uncheck , check again , Allow Non-Market apps , then totally shut down Nook and reboot .

[Nook Color Themes and Apps] KabutoTX:
I got the .99 one working. If I deleted the video file it usually worked but would want to redownload when I re-ran the app. Also tried converting the mp4 to baseline and the app didn't like it. I now have the following..

1. Make sure the Nook status bar is hid when running AW by doing the swipe.

2. Don't delete the video file.

3. Run app. It usually will kick right back out but I keep trying and usually around the 4th try it will give me an error about the video file failing. Click OK and runs fine.
[Nook Color Themes and Apps] bretzke:
AW? Sorry for the noob question.

Sorry. Typo. Meant ADW. The default launcher. To hide the bar just swipe up.

i have a friend with an og Droid and he was saying that after rooting and going to 2.3 from 2.2 it wasn't a huge huge update but there were a lot of nice features that he really liked. it might be worth saying that he jumped ship to an verizon iphone when it came out but messes with the droid still.
[HD7 General] lyicon:
I need help please people. My friend has hd7, and he spiled some wather on it, and mobile worked for atleast 1hour. And then it went off, and could not be turned on again.. I tried to put it on charger and screen turns on displaying htc on it, but it restarts when it needs to boot windows. When i enter bootloader it stays on. But soon as i unplug the charger it wents off again. Any help or ideas is very much appriciated.. My friend is desperate.. :) (sorry for my bad eng.)
[HD7 General] lyicon:
correction: it was vodka, not wather :D
[HD7 General] hukkguai:
Generally liquid in the phone can permanently damage the device. If the phone was in water you can still save it sometimes by putting it in a bowl of rice but other times you are just out of luck.
[HD7 General] lyicon:
puting it in a bowl of rice?
[HD7 General] dcuk7:
Rice absorbs liquid and can work in some circumstances. You should have turned it off as soon as it got wet and either do the rice trick or use an airing cupboard. You may just be out of luck on this occasion.

Hey people, I am using a TMOUS version of HD2 and I am looking for a good looking TPU case for it. I am looking for the TPU cases that have protection surrounding the lens, speaker and the flashlight. I don't want the ones with a big opening in the back.

I want something like this (see link)but better looking and fits the TMOUS version.

[HD2 Accessories] stevedebi:
I take it the Otterbox defender is too bulky? It also protects the screen from impact (that is a glass screen on the HD2).

Personally, of the two I always prefer black.
[HD2 Accessories] dcheng11:
i have the first one. it doesn't fit perfectly, but you can stretch it out to make it fit. mine fits very snug.. honestly, i find it kind of ugly.. i really only picked it up because the ebay page said it would fit the tmo usa hd2, but it didn't. complaining didn't work out well, and it was only $5, so i just kept the case. i'm looking at buying a capdase xpose soft jacket or a momax icase. i'm hoping both fit! if you want to know how it goes, just pm me, and i'll be sure to let you know (if you comment here that you want a review or something, i probably won't see it haha).

Mine works the normal way. R to R, W to W, Y to Y. and the cable is called 3.5mm to RCA A/V. Been using it on my projector since i got my vibrant. Works really good for watching movies. Get the SCOSCHE one. Really good cable.
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ptJeffree:
TV-Out Cables

Hi All!

TV-Out is definitely awesome. The only downsides are that you will not get HD picture due to RCA connection and not every application supports TV out. I'm not sure if its app specific of the OS selects which apps are capable, could also be because of DRM. Sadly GunBros does not work with TV-Out, Angry birds does.

I would like to recommend these cables. They are designed for the ZUNE but work perfectly on my Vibrant. 2.2 stock

:( I can't post links yet, but on Amazon this is the items title "Microsoft Zune 30GB, 80GB, 4GB, 8GB AV ( Audio Video ) RCA Cable - 4.5 Feet" at the time of writing this post, they are priced at $2.30. so worth it!
