I cant get CWM or anything else to boot from my sd card anymore! I had CM7 running and used the NT format command to start from scratch and install new things fresh-like, (curious noob move, yes.) upon restart i get the "n" symbol on the screen, then a pic of the box from CWM, and it just hangs. all i get is pic of box. i tried booting cwm from my sdcard and it just wont do it. i also tried the CM7 bootable from sdcard, which also did not boot. i cant get factory restore or adb or anything working. can anyone help me? i learn very fast! Thank you. i am cursed with noob. noob curse. yup.
So what exactly did you do to cause all this? Format your SD card?
Something to try

You might try from powered down state, hold N and power till NT powers on and then off. Place your boot cwm sdcard in slot. Plug power cable into nook then into computer usb. This will auto power on your nook so don't touch anything till after boot. Let the usb connection handle the power on for you.
good luck!

So, i was in the final stages of loading a custom rom to the eris, as ive done a hundred times.. finished it, rebooted the phone, edited nam in cdmaws.. rebooted.. now im effed.. the phone will show the three android skaters.. and then vibrate 5 times and turn off and then it just sits there with a black screen and green light flickering at the top, i have to remove the battery to get any response from the phone, hitting the power buttin, and then it just does the same thing.. ive tried master wipe, its successful, but when the phone reboots, i get the same result.
it wont talk with the pc so i cant communicate with it..
and ideas? ive honestly done more eris's than i can count.. well, my quickbooks can count it for me.. but thats irrelevant..lol
its just this one fone im having the issues with.. hard reset is successful in its process.. but no successful in fixing the problem. and i have no other ideas.. i have access to the sdcard and have tried starting over at the PB00IMG.zip point.. and no luck..
you fix my problem - i got a trigger happy donating finger.. (im very generous)
you cant boot into recovery, wipe it, then flash a new rom?
i can boot into recovery and either fastboot - which lets it talk to my pc, or recovery, which is the stock recovery option, and it fails.
i can load the PB00IMG.zip from the sd card..
i wish there was something i could put on the sd card - for the normal stock recovery to recognize and install.. i dont know why i lost my custom recovery it doesnt make sense..

Take the sdcard out of the phone and put it into a usb reader?
Have you tried formatting the sd card? I know in the early days of root some people were having problems with the .zip being read, they formatted and worked with no more issues

omg help this is serious. i tried to do what it tell me to do to install megatron rom. i wipe data partition sd card and wipe data/factory reset. then when i reboot my phone. everything is like normal choose your language and all that stuff and finally press 'use phone' then my screen goes blank. i cant press anything. though the notification bar with wireless 3g wireless and so on are still there but besides that nouthing is pressable. i cant switch off my phone with using power button so i had to remove to battery.
then i switch it on again, then after the lg logo the the android logo, that is when its stuck forever. though i still can access custom recovery. i cant copy my rom to my sd card cause like i said, i cant press anything when the phone boot.
now i cant do anything with my phone it just stuck with the android logo forever. i think theres a way is to install a rom. but i cant find a way to copy my rom from pc to sd card to install it from 'flash zip from sdcard' in custom recovery.
HELP!!!!
Look for the option called "Toggle USB-MS" in the custom recovery menu. This will let you access the sdcard from the computer (like a memory stick) while in the custom recovery. Copy the zip you need to flash, then disconnect the phone and un-toggle the usb-ms connection before flashing.

Hi guys,
I installed viperMOD PrimeTime froma guide on Redmond Pie.
Anyway after doing it im stuck in the CWM-Based Recovery v 5.5.0.4 every time it reboots.
Anyway i try restarting it and holding down the volume buttons to get into the standard recovery mode it isnt even there.. I tried installed the loop fix on a SD card but the CWM does not even pick up the card have tried different ones.
Tried Nvflash but a screen flashes quickly and then goes again..
I can get the device in APX mode what can i do from here? Please i dunno what i did wrong but i followed that guide from Redmond and now its stuffed.
Any help pleaseee
Do you have the prime or the regular TF?
cwm5504 doesn't see the external sdcard, you have to use the internal sdcard- either boot into the rom and copy it over, or use adb and push it to the internal card.
I'm not sure what the loop fix is and why you need the sdcard for it, but did you see this thread?
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1530337
nvflash will work, but you need the correct sbk. for the tf101, it's serial numbers below b70. I don't know squat about the tf201.
Ok so i followed Dimondblacks guide and managed to stop it from entering the recovery menu. Now i can get to the 3 symbols page (USB,Android,Wipe) I have tried all 3 and still dosnt boot.
If i let the device boot as normal now it just hangs ont he asus logo screen... Now someone said use recovry menu to flash a rom but no SD card i use will make the recovery pick it up. Is there anyway to access the internal memory and place the update there?
What does fast boot do?
Thankyou for the reply!
Its a transformer prime
How do i push it to the internal sd card? what are the commands. i have tried to follow.. So does that mean i can download the update file and just push it onto the internal memory?
DO i have to put the update on the sd card first then adb it to the internal memory?
Never mind it seems to be bricked with unrecoverable bootloader error
ffs
There is a transformer prime forum, did you try posting there?
Good luck

Hi Guys,
I really hope someone can help me out with this issue. I searched the forum and the internet but did not find any solutions.
My friend successfully rooted the Nook Tablet yesterday using a method that did not require an SD card. Today I was trying to install CM9 with ICS so I downloaded Nook Recovery Flasher.apk and flashed cwm. When I restarted my device got stuck into autorestarting loop. It shows the gray "n", which quickly followed by the clockwork recovery loading splash screen (the picture of the cardboard box). The device then shuts down and starts the cycle over.
I've tried holding the power and n button method but that doesn't work. I've also tried creating a bootable sd card but the device won't pick that up either.
I would appreciate any suggestions!
I've ended up bricking my 8GB NT a similar way. Ended up writing over my mmcblk partition with something I wasn't supposed to. Now stuck in a reboot loop, can't do adb, my phone isn't playing nice enough to where I can make a recovery SD.
BTW OP, from what I've read CM9 is only for 16GBs and will brick 8GBs.
Same thing happened to me a while back. I was able to create a bootable CWM sd card. From there you should be able to restore. If not, use the Ubuntu recovery.
Short answer: You're going to have to create a bootable SD card.
My 8gb nook boots but is stuck on the box screen. the screen has this kind of weird screen like it was broken or something. I just want to know how to fix it before my parents find out. i dont want to get in trouble. help!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Can you take a picture?
It may be just hung. Press and hold down the "power" and the "N" button for about ten seconds and release. That 'should' un-hang it and power it off.
Nook tablet
this is how it looks like i want it back to normal help! it happend when i installed the nook recovery flasher app. then i got on. then when i turned it off it started doing this forever.
I'm betting its a broken recovery. Can you provide a link to where you got the app from?
There's a few things you can do to fix it. What I would do is create an sdcard with the clockworkmod recovery img on it so you can boot into that from the sdcard. From there I would restore albert's stock rooted recovery via clockworkmod. Then you'll want to flash the internal clockworkmod recovery zip file via the sdcard version of clockworkmod.
I have the same thing but with a working recovery... I REALLY need to figure out how to fix this, any ideas?
If you can get into recovery, try flashing a rom and booting.
The new ROM gets stuck in a CWN bootloop on the white N screen.
Anyone know where I can find a flashable CWM file?

16gig NT recovery installed to 8gig NT. Here's a link to help you recover. Nook Tablet recovery is 16gig only.
