I'm having the hardest time finding some program to be able to open and edit the system.img and data.img on my Mac, or my PC or in Ubuntu. It's pissing me off hardcore.
When I try to mount them in OSX it says there are no mount points. In Windows it just gives me an error, alone with Ubuntu. If anyone can help me out, that would be great. It's impossible to port anything without being able to edit these. Thanks

I dont really know, if i should post this here, or in an ubuntu forum; but anyway:
I "installed" Lite'ning Rom v3.6 XWLPG with LitePro kernel v3.2.
In windows i can connect to the sd card(s) when using the usb debugging modus, but when in ubuntu, i cant.
Both sd cards are mounted (although they are not in fdisk -l or mount -l, but in nautilus) and i can see the "root" directorys in every one of them, but i cant write data on them.
When trying to copy something, the phone pops up a short notice of "MTP application" but then in ubuntu/nautilus i get an error:
"While copyping a file to gphoto2://[usb:001,006]/store_00010001 an error occured."/ "Error while writing the file: -108: Unknown file or folder" (translated from german)
Anyone got an idea?

Could it be file system issue? i.e. FAT vs ext?
Probably you have USB issues? Download/Install Linux USB driver for your phone.
I dont think, that there is an issue with the filesystem.
It did work with the original kernel etc. (should have mentioned that...)
And ubuntu recognizes the phone: Bus 001 Device 006: ID 04e8:6860 Samsung Electronics Co., Ltd GT-I9100 Phone [Galaxy S II]

Before yesterday when powering up my nook tablet I would get the "Installing factory Software...Do not Turn off your device" but immediately after I would get the error message "Please contact nook support." Now my nt just turns off after powering on and displaying the n screen. I have absolutely no clue what is wrong with my tablet or what steps to follow in order to fix it. I would greatly appreciate any input from the knowledgeable members here to point me in the right direction in terms of what procedures need to be followed. Thanks

Okay! Step one, you need to make a bootable CWM card.
Get yourself a microSD card, format it, and copy the files from HERE (download, unzip to your SD card).
Power your NT completely down, plug in the card, and then plug in the USB cable.
You should boot to a "cardboard" box screen.
After that, its going to boot into CWM recovery. Now you're not going to have alot of tools on the card at this point, but you may see some errors about stuff not being able to be mounted, etc.
Once you've got that done, post back here, and also include any errors you see!
From there, we can try to figure out exactly what's gone wrong, and the best approach to fix it.
--Also! Include the information about your NT, Is it rooted? What firmware or Rom? Other than powering up, what had you done (If anything) previously before the error!
^ Thanks for your quick reply!
As I wrote in my first post I'm a complete noob when it comes to rooting or hacking any devices. I have not once tried rooting my NT. What I did do though in order to have android as an option on my tablet is buy one of those Nook2Android cards. Now I think I may have accidentally pressed Format SD card or something like that when trying to do something else. That's all that I can think of that I may have done to cause the error.
I'm going to try and make the bootable CWM card right now. I'll make sure to report back!
lag0matic,
I now have a bootable CWM card.
So when I boot into CWM I get this error:
E: Can't mount /cache/recovery/command
E: Can't mount /cache/recovery/log
E: Can't open /cache/recovery/log
E: Can't mount /cache/recovery/last_log
E: Can't open /cache/recovery/last_log
What needs to be done now? Thanks

Erf. Okay, you've managed to bork your partitions.
Lets hope this goes easily!
First, lets get Parted (and some other tools) on your CWM recovery card.
Download this file here then unzip them to the root of your CWM Sd card.
Then you need to get ADB up and installed.
I used This forum to get the drivers, however, I couldnt get ADB to work right off the bat.
I'll copy/paste the steps I used and helped others get ADB runnng.
First, google this application: Usbdeview
Download the appropriate one for your system.
Unplug all USB mass storage devices (USB HDD's, Card readers, Memory sticks, etc)
Run USBDeview, delete anything Google, Android, Nook, Barnes and Noble, and Mass storage.
Reboot.
Open device manager
Run the "Runmefirst" or whatever its called from the ADB directory
Plug in your NT.
Go to device manager - look for a broken driver on the tablet, and tell it to install the drivers (you may have to use "have disk" and point to the usb driver directory)
This should install the driver for your NT.
You may also need to edit a file in the .android directory, at the root of your windows username folder.
in which case, drop to a command prompt and type
echo 0x2080 > %username%\.android\adb_usb.ini
after that, switch to the directory you unziped the ADB files to (I used C:\ntroot) and try to connect to your NT by typing "adb devices"
you _should_ see something like
1234567890 Recovery
Or
000000000 Recovery
Now, once you see one of the above messages
in the same command promt window enter the follwing commands
adb shell
mount /sdcard/
cd /sdcard/
parted /dev/block/mmcblk0
you'll then get a prompt that looks like
(parted)
type "print"
and hopefully you'll see a few errors, and it will ask you to fix them, choose fix for both.
Once you get this far (Or, if you run into troubles) post again and i'll see what I can do for you!
(I have successfully un-bricked my NT, but I did it in a way I want to avoid fo you, as we want yours to run stock roms)

So I'm currently going through the process of installing the drivers but I keep getting OMAP4430 under Other devices while Device Manager keeps refreshing.

^ wow.... that is exactly what i got after the second time my unit barfed.
can you right click on the "omap4430" entry in the device manager and update the drivers by pointing to the folder that has the "nook drivers" folder in the adb + driver + fast zip file?
I imagine you will get a error telling you the drivers are not for this device.
Question to you, did you happen to try formatting the "internal sdcard" ?
@ Lag0matic. this is what killed my unit *dead* today. but it only occured *after* using the 2.3.7 memory managers (not rom-manager) to format the SDcard and the internal SDcard...

The good news is I have now installed the drivers! My NT under Android Phone appears as Android Composite ADB Interface in Device Manager.
Sadly,though, after getting this far it seems adb still does not recognize my device?
After imputing "adb devices" in cmd in the directory containing the adb files what I get is:
List of devices attached
I don't know if I have missed a step or did one incorrectly.

couple different things to try
#1
adb kill-server
adb start-server
adb devices
try this a couple times. my nook did not get hooked until i did this 2,3 times
#2 with the unit booted from cwm recovery *on the sd card*, reboot windows while leaving the device plugged in.
once back in windows try the adb devices command again.
failing that you are where i was. but at least you can get into cwm, mine ceased booting from sd entirely. heres a thought and a test. can you make the bootable-apla SD card and still use the nook via sd card only? or does it freeze up... ?

i have had that happen a few times and the problem was that my drivers were not installing correctly. sure it appeared as android adb composite device, but it most likely installed the wrong driver for the wrong device.
this is where things get a bit complicated because you need to look for the product and vendor id's for the nook tablet and modify them correspondingly in the android_winusb.inf.
also make sure you execute the runmefirst.bat
that creates a .android folder in your user folder. that was the step i kept missing when i had your problem with the drivers... ironic right? "runmefirst" and i run it last haha...
Does anybody know of a good method to mount android file systems (4.0+) on Linux? I want to be able to mount my sdcard remotely (TCP) and manage my files on my desktop. I've tried http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1821601 but this is very buggy. I'd prefer a way to integrate mtpfs and mount to a directory.
http://collectskin.com/adbfs/
this is IMHO best solution
Hello
Can someone tell me how I can mount my Prime in Ubuntu 11.10? I use Ubuntu as a VM (Virtualbox) and I can't get it to mount.
I tried sudo mtpfs -o allow_other /media/Transformer but the only thing I see in the file manager is the device (called Transformer) and in this device there's only one folder "playlists" w/o any content. Can someone help me? thanks in advance!
