[Q] Boot Loop 'process system is not responding' - Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet

Ooo

Boot into CWM and go to advanced and then show log. see if you have any errors. I would personally do a partition wipe. If this works, from a running system, go to rom manager and do a fix permissions.

Ooo

Yes, from CWM, 4th option down. 'wipe cache partition'
You will lose only things that are stored in the cache. Similar to clearing cookies on a PC. Android will create a new cache upon next boot (which will take a little longer than normal)

Ooo

Might be your sdcard. Backup everything and format it with SDFormatter then copy your files back,if you keep receiving errors about sdcard you could have a faulty sdcard.
You could also backup your data with titanium backup, boot into CWM make a backup of current ROM and make a fresh install of a new ROM, there are stock, CM7 and MIUI as CWM flashable zips for easy install in CWM pick the one you need, flash it and restore your apps with titanium backup (preferably only app not app+data as you're getting databases errors).
Make a backup of your new ROM in CWM once you finish setting it up as you want for precaution. Remove your old backup.
NOTE: If you install CM7 again make sure you have latest build (Internal: Alpha12 | sdcard: Final). Also verify the md5 of the download so you know its not corrupted.

Spoke too soon. TB still won't let me backup due to insufficient storage space. Now it says that my SD card is 200mb and I only have 1mb free??? I took SD card out and put back in, no change, reboots no change. Evernote is complaining too. WTF How can a card just go bad??
Laptop is saying the same. Considering reformatting and trying again?

You mentioned that you flashed CM7 sd image right? so you have to resize the last partition to the end of your sdcard. Last partiton is the one that will act as "sdcard".

Using easus partition master, resized the last partition to use unallocated space and nook said 200mb SD card anyway. I don't get it.
----------
Used different software and partition resized. This time set up started which I didn't see before. All seemed fine, started adding some apps from the market since I have no backup.
Suddenly it rebooted and bypassed/ignored the SD card and booted into the previous set up. I powered off, removed/replaced SD card then booted but same thing. I started to post HERE and it rebooted with the SD card! Then it rebooted into the previous set up without the card.
Was.thinking of doing the internal install. Does this indicate a bad SD card or problem with nook seeing it? Considering a surface scan in windows?

It looks like because seems that the Nook Tablet unmount your sdcard or it unmount itself randomly, so if you are running a ROM from sdcard it's logical it will reboot because no system is found. Try with another sdcard if possible to know better if its a software issue or hardware sdcard issue.

Nandroid backup doesn't seeem to work. Am I doing this wrong?

I should probably post this in the dev forum but I don't have enough posts. And I should probably search first but I'm in this panic mode of being cut off from having a phone so I'm terribly sorry if this has been covered elsewhere.
I was running CM7.0.0.RC4 and decided to upgrade to CM7.0.3 and since all the other updates have gone so extremely well I decide to do this while in my car on a drive.
So first thing I did was Nandroid backup.
Then I wiped the cache and the davlik cache because that's been my recipe for success. Not thinking I also wiped the data/system stuff. Then I installed the CM7 update from a zip file.
I didn't realize what I did until I booted the thing and came up on a screen with none of my icons on it.
So I went into the reboot recovery screen and tried to do a Nandroid recovery but when I did that I just get the HTC screen staring back at me they pops up before anything else and it never seems to go anywhere else. I had to pull the battery to reboot it.
Am I doing the backup wrong? Does the Nandroid ISO have all my settings, programs, etc on it? If it doesn't I might as well do a fresh start.
When you do a Nandroid restore it should restore your data and system partitions as well (including your apps and settings).
When you do the restore, does it give you an error?
First off thank you for the reply.
I didn't see an error so I just did another restore to check.
1 error message pops up and it says
"sd-ext.img not found. Skipping restor of /sd-ext"
When I reboot I get the same thing, it hangs on HTC screen and never goes beyond that.
It's ClockworkMod Recovery 2.5.0.1

This is normal if you don't have an ext partition on your SD card (for apps2sd or simple2ext support).

It's certainly strange. My suggestion is this:
1) Boot into Clockworkmod
2) Wipe data/factory reset
3) Wipe cache partition
4) Advanced > Wipe dalvik cache
5) Partitions menu > format system
6) Install Cyanogenmod zip from sdcard
7) Install Google Apps zip from sdcard
8) Nandroid > Advanced restore > Restore data (don't restore the other things)
9) Reboot
Good luck.
Oh that's brilliant. I'll try that.
I've done a install of the CM7 and teh google tools and it started downloading all the apps that I had stored on the SD card so the only think I think I lost was some settings and my text messages but I'll try that anyway just to see if it will work. I have all my settings just the way I want them.
So I tried that and it didn't seem to do any better. None of my text messages were saved. I had to redownload all my apps again.
Now my SD card is almost full which doesn't make a whole lot of sense unless somehow the old versions of the programs are still on the SD card in which case if they are how to I clear that space up?
The other thing is while reinstalling some of the apps failed and I cleared the notification list because it was too long to sort through them all but now I can't figure out which apps weren't installed correctly. Can I bring up that error list again?

When you make Nandroid backups, it saves everything on your SD card under the clockworkmod folder. Each backup is saved by the date (GMT) when you did the backup. On a smaller SD card (like the one the phone comes with) even a few of those backups can eat up your SD card space quickly, so you should just go in and delete the ones you don't need from that folder.
When you did the Nandroid backup and Nandroid restore, did you go into ROM Manager to get to Clockworkmod? If so, you should try doing it the proper way -- turn the phone off completely, then use volume down + power to get to Clockworkmod. In general I would avoid using ROM Manager on an S-ON device like the Aria.
Also make sure the USB cable is not plugged in. it makes clockwork act crazy.

I've been doing the restore from the Clockwordmod bootloader menu. Turns out I made a backup of ADW settings and the desktop settings so I'm right back to where I was before the install just in a more round about way.
I am using the SD card that came with it but I'm thinking I might go get a larger one now. Is there any easy way to get all my apps onto the new card? Will just coping the content work?

If your current SD card doesn't have an ext partition on it (i.e., you didn't repartition it), then you can simply copy the entire contents over from the old card to the new card. It's as simple as that.

[Q] Trouble running Backup from CWM 6.0.1.5

I have a 16 GB Nook tablet currently running CM7 that I want to upgrade to CM10.
I installed CMW 6.0.1.5 to emmc and booted to the CWM installed on emmc. I tried to run backup.
It starts, reports 5477MB free, backups up boot image, recovery image, and system. Then it says
Freeing space,
Done freeing space.
Then it starts backing up files. It gets about 75% done and stops at enroll.ok
It's been stuck there for 20 minutes. What can I do?
Maybe this will help.
I would try the backup on a new or blank SD to narrow down the issue.:fingers-crossed:

Well, there's the rub. I have tried backing up from both SD card (with CWM 6.0.1.2) and emmc (with CWM 6.0.1.5).
When using emmc CWM, I have tried both backing up to external SD card and to internal SD card. Both start, but never finish

Well, I just finished fixing perms and wiped cache. I rebooted, then restarted and enter CWM. I tried running both backup to internal and backup to SD card. Both got part way done, then froze [incidentally they froze at different spots]. I had to power down to reboot.
Im about to say "to heck with backups" and just go ahead and upgrade without it
Yep, that's what I did too and probably most of cm10 testers.

[Q] Talk, Trebuchet errors. Explain cm10 boot menu? iamafan's build

Hi all, I built my sdcard per: http://iamafanof.wordpress.com/2012/...r-nook-tablet/ (built by"Succulent")
My kids have two NT's. With two 16GB Sdcards, one class4 the other class 10. I know class4 is recommended, but one poster in forums said he's taken images of CM built on class4's and applied this image to class 10's in several cases and has had no problems. So I thought what the heck, can't hurt to try, so that's what I did (using Winimage). It booted fine 5 or 6 times for me, and I installed several APK's of games from Humble Bundle . I turned over the Nook to my little girl and she brought it back to me later showing she gets errors on boot, after swiping the lock symbol to unlock it. One is "Unfortunately, Talk has stopped". If you click OK on this, you get ""Unfortunately, Trebuchet has stopped". Clicking OK on this does nothing, it keeps popping up indefinitely. I don't know if the sdcard is hot pluggable (can be removed with power to the tablet), but she did admit to doing this. So I'm wondering if some corruption occurred to the CM build on the sdcard. Has anyone seen these errors? I could reflash it from the image I made off the class 4, but want to understand what happened so we don't run into it again. The funny thing is, I don't recall the startup wizard off the 1st class4 card prompting me with several screens regarding Google crap like it did on the 2nd card which was flashed from the same image. That was even after telling it I had no Google acct hoping it would leave me alone.
can anyone explain the boot menu you get when you press the N button? (I'm not including the faded selections) I'm wondering especially about the recovery options. Here's my menu:
INT BOOT ( I assume will boot to B&N native OS?)
INT RECOVERY ?
SDC RECOVERY ?
SDC BOOT (Iassume, boot to CM10 off sdcard?)
SDC ALTBOOT ?
START FASTBOOT ?

Yes,
internal boot - boots Rom in emmc
Internal recovery - recovery in emmc
Sdcard boot - boots your sdcard Rom.
Sdcard recovery - boots sd card recovery ( keep recovery.img in root of sdcard for it to load recovery)
Sdcard altboot - alternate recovery ( not necessary, unless you want both cwm and twrp at same time)
Fastboot - fastboot mode , fastboot commands to flash .img file etc with this method .
As for your problem, try entering recovery, wipe cache and dalvik cache partition (I've done this on emmc version, never tried sdcard version of any Rom) this may solve the issue. If not try factory reset.
And removing sdcard while device is switched on is called hot swapping , hot plug is a CPU governor. Not sure if sdcard roms are hot swappable, but I think not.

Thanks.
emmc=internal nook memory I assume?
Oh, and...just to clarify, I haven't modified (rooted) my tablet. (you mention factory reset). I should mention that with the sdcard out, it boots B&N OS just fine.
And the part you say about wiping the two caches, so I should go into SD Card Recovery to do that? Once you get into it, you have various choices like the ones you mention? (I'd read that this choice was to backup your NT to sdcard). And please, I want to be very, very careful not to wipe out the B&N stock OS, so please, any detailed instructions you can give so I don't make that mistake, I'd greatly appreciate it. (I see so many posts on these forums about people bricking their Nook tablets it worries me.)

Um I don't know much about how it works for sdcard Rom. I've always only used emmc version. I guess if you were to enter recovery, it would access the stock cache partition by default , and we aren't trying to clear that.
Try this - use titanium backup (only talking about your sdcard Rom here, nothing to do with your stock) and in options, you may be able to wipe your cache or dalvik cache.
Or,
boot into your sdcard Rom, in settings > backup and restore > factory reset. This will delete all user data and return Rom to original Cm10 that you flashed on sdcard.
Or if it's only google talk and trebuchet launcher issue, install a new launcher (go launcher, adw etc) , then use titanium backup to uninstall trebuchet and talk.

From what I see, titanium backup is an android app. If I can't boot to Android (Trebuchet error loops as I said) I don't know how I can install this to do anything? Nor can I install another launcher or go into Settings as the error doesn't let you get any further.
I guess if there was a way to browse files/folders on the sdcard partitions on the sd to manually delete the cache files.....but if they're linux partitions (ext3 or4) you can't do that under windows...

In cwm, enter mounts and backup, then (if) you see /sdcard /cache, mount that and format that ONLY.
Do not format anything else as some options can brick device (Rom, bootdata, factory etc)
Wiping cache is safe (99%)
Again, I have never used sdcard Rom so I don't know what will show up in your recovery. But if you see something like sdcard cache, it can be cleared. If it doesn't specify sdcard, let us assume it refers to stock emmc.

Why backing up now when it's not working? Fix your issue, then make a backup. So the next time there's a problem you can restore to working condition.
Sent from my ST27i
Well, backing up, I think, was a good suggestion by Digimax. So I'm glad I did it. and now i know how to do it for future. Just in case anything EVER goes wrong, I'll always have that image now on my pc. Bad thing was, apparently B&N nook OS apparently keeps lots of APKs around after installing them. I had to make my 1st fat32 partition over 2GB for the entire backup to process without running out of space. backup size=1.6gb
I ran into lost chains - convert to cluster msgs trying to delete the folder of the first failed backup, but it never would delete even after a chkdsk, so I formatted the card and put the original image back onto it, adjusted the partitions, and then ran into a new probem.....the Cyanomod spinning logo never stopping spinning so it won't boot up. So I give up. I don't know if it's that it's a class 10 card that all these problems are happening. barring any other suggestions, I guess I'll make sure the other NT we have runs stable for a few weeks and if so I'll order another class 4 like that one has.

I don't know about your bootloop issue, but I don't think it's a sdcard class issue.
Anyhow, now that you have stock backup, aren't you going to consider flashing cm10 internally? Do you actually use stock?
Sent from my ST27i
I'm a little leery of it, at least while it's under warranty. I don't know how reliable recovery is.? Besides, my daughter wasn't thrilled with it being down for several days with me fussing with it and asked if she could have her "B&N boot" back I admit It is a bit of a pain having to pull it out of it's case, lift the flap, pop-in or out the sdcard to switch between them. (& also to have to remember to always turn it off b4 removing/inserting)
I may do it in the future though. Thanks for the help
FWIW, you don't have to actually remove the card to boot into stock. Just reboot, hold "n" to get into Cyaonoboot menu and choos "int boot" or something like that, and it will boot to stock with the sd-card still inserted.
Great, thanks for that tip!
Card died
I think many of these symptoms could have been caused by a dying card. It did have a corruption error once, and then it finally completely died. Just for anyone else that runs into these.

FWIW, /cache does not need to be backed up, which should help reduce the backup space requirement.

[Q] Nothing Works..

Okay, so my phone wasn't sending messages all of a sudden. I have a P769 on jelly bean rooted. I restarted it and it got stuck in a bootloop over and over again after countless battery removals. I used CWM and tried to restore my backup of JB rooted, and all I got was a bunch of force closes. So I restored to my 10G rooted on ICS. All of my Google apps were gone and I went to take a picture and it said my internal memory was full and wouldn't read my SD card. I did factory resets and nothing works. I'm not sure what else to try.. any help would be appreciated!
Edit: I finally got JB to load and it would scan my SD card, then reboot itself while it was still up and running? I could see my backlights on my buttons flashing. So I took out my SD card, same thing. I wiped the cache and reformatted my SD card and now i'm getting an error message saying that my UIDs are inconsistent and it won't let me do a thing on the phone. My phone was fine 12 hours ago.. I haven't downloaded a thing or accessed anything at all.

How did you 'reformatted sdcard' ? Are you talking about internal memory(built in) or external memory (microsd)?
If you have some fresh backup system like 20x STOCK or whatever. (you can download it from XDA)
After this actions it will totally format your phone. You will no longer have system, apps, files that were on internal memory. It's kind of format C: on computer! So make sure you have backup on your external sdcard (microsd) and make sure to don't format your external sdcard.
I did it few times when I was messing around with custom ROMs so it's safe. I'm owner of P760 but don't think so if it will cause some problems.
1.Then you can go into CWM and mounts and storage and format following:
/cache
/data
/system
/sdcard - it is INTERNAL MEMORY (built in)
2.and then Advanced -> wipe dalvik cache
3. backup and restore -> restore from external sdcard -> choose your backup

I've wiped the data like the previous answer, and I also tried this.. I went into CWM and formatted all of this and wiped the dalvik cache, then tried to restore from external sdcard, which I tried my JB and ICS and neither worked. Right now I am on my JB and it just gets stuck at the T-Mobile 4G logo.
EDIT: I tried formatting everything and restoring from my external sdcard and my phone won't recognize my sdcard anymore. It says there are no files on it, but I try it on another phone and I can see the files.
I've had something along these lines before on my Huawei Honor. I never did work out what was wrong. I asked on xda and it was suggested that the partitions on the phone had resized/gone corrupt.
I'm not saying this is what has happened in your case. The sudden force closes and then no boot is what my Honor did.
Can you get software update mode to come on? Switch off, hold volume up and plug in usb from pc.

Yes I had the same problem when I upgraded from ics to jb. Never figured out what happened but I copied all my files to the computer then I formatted my external sd. After the format I just copied all the stuff back on the card. Also cwm doesn't work for the second partition. Good luck.

[Q] CM10, forgot Google password

CM10 on the Nook Tablet. My daughter forgot her Google password. Tried everything to recover it with Google, no luck. Created a new Google account for her. But how to "set it" (change it) in CM10? As soon as it boots it displays:
Too many pattern attempts
To unlock, sign in with your Google account.
Username:
password:
Nothing happens if I enter in the new account I created for her, it just sits there with the same info displayed.
Side question: What does SDC Recovery do in the boot menu?

Did you try deleting previous Google account and re-adding the new account under Settings->Accounts?

It's meant for rebooting into SD-based CWM recovery (assuming that your NT can boot off SD untethered with powered USB).
forgot password
That's the thing. Apparently after you setup your Google account, from then on CM10 boots auto-logging in, but if you'd setup a login "pattern" (grid of dots you trace a pattern on to login), CM10 will then demand the google id/pw) She did have one of those pattern login things setup before.
But basically, there's nothing on the screen besides what I described. If you can tell me how to get to settings when I see no icons or anything, I'd love to do that.
Re: the SD int recovery, I wasn't sure...I thought maybe that would let me access the backup I'd made long ago of the SD card via the boot menu, to maybe get it functional.

You will access recovery and be able to install a backup, but wouldn't that backup have the same password? The one you don't know. Do I understand it correcttly that you are running CM10 from sd card? If so, you can always start over with a freshly made sd card. Very easy if you use Succulent's ready-made image files.

(He has CM10.1 as well but personally I still prefer his final CM10. SOlid as a rock and I couldn't see any advantages using the CM10.1 I tried last week, but that's just my opinion))

I had a previous good backup on my PC, from right after I'd built the sdcard and before it was used. (& well before she forgot the password and got locked out like it is now) I copied it to the SD card and did Restore from SD. It restored, I rebooted, and we had the same screen demanding the google id/pw. So, all I can determine from this is that the restore does not FULLy restore what was on the SD card from you backup image.
I saw some other options on these menus, I'd like some clarification on, since I don't want to screw up the Nook part of the tablet!.
On the main CM menu:
"wipe cache partition": Does it wipe a cache partition on the internal Nook card? Or just the SD card?
Under Advanced, reboot recovery: what does this recover exactly? Does it mess with the internal Nook card at all or just the SD card?
Under Advanced, wipe dalvik cache: Does it mess with the internal Nook card at all or just the SD card?
Under Backup and Restore, Advanced Restore: There are 5 restore options here. Are any of them going to mess with the Nook card, or just the ext SD? When I choose Restore off the main menu, and select my image, is it doing all 5 of these steps during the restore ? If not, see below.
Restore Boot (is this what I need? Because the 1st screen I get at boot is this screen asking for the id/pw. What is it restoring FROM?
Restore System, Restore Data, Restore Cache: Do these mess with the internal Nook card at all or just the SD card?
Restore sd-ext: Not sure what this is? How is it different from picking Restore off the main menu and choosing your image and letting it run?
I'd appreciate knowing these things, at least for the future..... If nothing pans out, yes I'll rebuild, it's just time consuming since I customized the partition sizes.

Time consuming? I'd say a grand total of less than an hour to
1. Download and extract the img file
2. Burn image to sd card
3. Open for example Mini Tool Partition Wizard and resize the partitions. The ones you'd want to resize are the last two, and it's very easily done. The steps I took when I redid it just now:
a) Deleted last two partitions
b) created new partition 3, named it DATA (doesn't matter!), made it the size I wanted, made it EXT4 (according to instructions
on Succulent's site), Primary
c) created new partition 4 with all the remaining unallocated memory. FAT32, Primary
I already had the software for burning sd card ( I use WinImage) and MiniToolPartitionWizard installed, but I did a fresh download of the img file, extracted it and made the card. The whole process took about 35 minutes. Having said that, the download is kind of big, so it can take a lot longer than the 5 minutes it took me today.

/cache is always the internal emmc /cache partition, even when running ROM off SD card.
Except for sd-ext, backup/restore operations are relative to the internal emmc partitions (/boot, /recovery, /system, /data, /cache).

you have to go into settings and un sync the google account but since you cant do that cause your locked out i would just reflash the CM image to it all over again , if you have awesome internets it shouldnt take that long to restore your apps and stuff , esp if you already have titanium back ups of app data.
the sdc boots a second reovery image off microsd card ,
if your not gonna miss anything just reflash cm to it , and then restore from the google account once you get the password or if you have the apps backed up ,
