[Q] CM9 not booting past Cyanoboot? - Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet

Hi all,
So I have been using CM9 since 00 and havent had a problem. This morning I go to turn on my Nook and I can't get past the Cyanoboot screen. Basically it just reboots back into the "n" screen 9 times before it spits me into recovery. The only thing I have tried to do so far is wipe user data and re-install CM9, but I have had no luck.
Any thoughts? Thanks.

Which version are you flashing? If its not the latest, .03, then this it may have expired.

I have been trying to flash .02
I'll try to flash the most recent release right now.
Thanks.

Success! That worked. Thanks so much.

I've experienced this as well when a new CM9 build is released. Flashing the newest CM9 has fixed the problem and it boots right up.

CM9 self-flashing back to stock
So when cm9 alpha expires it just becomes unable to boot?
I ask because I went to bed last night with a working cm9 0.02, and woke up with stock nook 1.4.2; even cynogenboot has been removed from the sdcard
Little bit confused and possibly freaked out if this was BN's doing.
Oh well, time to try alpha 0.03 with kernel 3 I guess

Not sure why you ended up with stock ROM, but it looks like the old build did expire. Try reflashing the .03 build.

Nothing should have been erased from your SD card. Are you sure you didn't format your card by accident?

Very sure because my titanium pro backups and all other data was still there. It is possible that I wiped the recovery files from the sdcard sometime previously while cm9 was working.
However, my main worry is that I can't even get it to boot to cyanoboot so I can install alpha .03. I'll probably post on the thread I was using to make the sdcard (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1562130), but the normal re-partition, mark as active/bootable and copy in the files from meghd00t doesn't seem to be working.
Thanks for the help so far.

No they shouldn't. The devs of cm9 say it expires in their thread. They say they will provide no support. It is marked as a development rom for a reason.

I'm a little confused. Even if you can't get to Cyanoboot, you can still make a bootable CWM SD card and flash .03 from there.

Yeah, I agree with this. This ROM and even Fattire's great Cyanoboot is bound to have a for issues. That's why these forums and all these users are around here, to allow users to ask the community and help each other to learn about a device.

Agreed, I love this rom and miss having it already, but it is early alpha. Some kind of warning / countdown might be nice, but I'd much rather that effort keep being put into a working kernel 3
Maybe I partitioned wrong for cynoboot, going to try again.

Good point. I got CWM to boot so it shouldn't be more than a few minutes before I have alpha .03, and can install kindle app, and get back to reading my textbooks for finals tomorrow.
Sorry about that, a bit frazzled at this point in the semester. Thanks for all the help, I'll try and figure things out if this weird flashing back to stock happens again when .03 expires

Need help ASAP

Alright i need help badly. I consider myself an advanced noob in installing roms and kernals on a phone. I have the rezound. I unlocked it about a week about and went through the step by step instructions. I installed ziggys kernal. I was getting some bootloops but not to many until this morning. My phone kept bootlooping. I would take the battery out and put it back and it would do it again. I tried wiping the date cache and dalvik. Nothing. I then formatted all to ext3. After i did that it said i need to install a rom. I try to restart my phone and it just stays on the HTC screen. I tried to do the factory restore. Nothing. I have to put my sd card in after i get into recovery because when i go to the bootloader screen the HBOOT does something and then asks me if i want to do an update. I tried and hit yes and it did it then reboots but nothing. When i hit no it just wants me to reboot my phone, which does nothing for me. As it is right now my phone wont load. it just stays on the HTC screen. HELP please

The other half of the problem is that it sounds like he formatted ext3 and wiped his ROM. So, he'd have to reboot back into recovery and restore a backup or drop a new ROM on the phone via USB.
Grab the RUU and start all fresh again.

This is one of the reasons I have not tried to hack this device. Although I may unlock/root my Rezound I'm not in a hurry to. It's really a great device. Just too expensive for me to maybe mess up. Especially since its our own fault if we do. Can't blame the carrier/manufacturer for not paying to fix/replace either. Hopefully you get it fixed soon. I know I wouldn't want to have to go through all that either.
i just installed the CleanRom. Ill let you know if this works

You need to reflash the kernel in order to get wifi to work.

The answer should be in the CleanRom thread but as far as I know if you flashed Ziggy's Kernel, you should reflash it and that should solve the problem.

It shouldn't. You can't brick with unlock S-On. If you can get to HBOOT, you are fine. And there is no way to overwrite HBOOT yet.

And does it need to be said that this phone has been out for less than a month? Maybe we should give the devs a chance to work out the kinks before we start flashing.
I *really* miss WiFi tethering that I used to do with my DInc, but I am not about to root in the first two weeks of ownership before I see good, dependable feedback from the community.

Not trying to knock you but I don't see the point in waiting. Flashing a rom is fairly straightforward and even flashing kernels is for the most part. I had an Incredible prior to this and I am absolutely in love with my phone...that's why I read how to do things properly and learn from others mistakes.
Take the plunge! It's great on the otherside

There is a wifi tether app that doesn't require root. Koush is the dev. I tried it and it worked. That was the only thing I would have needed root for also. You should be able to find it if you search for it. If not, I'll find the link.

rooted phone 1.4 installed warmtwopointthree and now

it wont load past the HTC screen..
flashed WARM-3.5-evo3d-unofficial-r100.zip
from sdcard.
had down a factory wipe initially.. tried clearing dalvik cache again but still cannot get past htc screen. ugh
correction i flashed to r119.zip
Did you wipe system as well? How long are you giving it at the HTC Splash screen before you decide it's frozen? I haven't been keeping up to date with the Warm train lately, so I'm not sure if there have been any issues with the builds. I know back in the day, sometimes the build bot that myn used would bork a build from time to time and it wouldn't flash. Have you tried flashing any other builds, or just r119?
yes i did a complete wipe initially.. flashed.. got stuck at screen.. i left it there for 2-3 mins with no response.. just hovering at the HTC screen. I have not tried flashing any other roms as I wasnt sure what if any adverse affect this may have on the current problem

Before you go any further in trying to figure it out, I would let it sit at the HTC screen a bit longer than a couple minutes. I've had it hang there for 5 or 6 minutes on certain sense roms that I flash, especially on the first boot. Give it a solid 7 minutes or so, and if it's still hanging there..then yea it's stuck. After that, I would simply try flashing something else and see if it works. Perhaps you got a bad download as well, maybe try re downloading it.
suggestions on how to move rom to sdcard if phone isnt booting hence PC isnt seeing the drive?
is it possible to go back to stock rom if this doesnt work?

Transfer it to the SD card from recovery. I'm not sure what recovery you're on, but every recovery has the feature to mount the sd card from within recovery. It's like USB MS Toggle or something to that nature. In TWRP 2, I think it's under the 'mount' tab.
Did you just try turning it on again yet, and seeing if it will eventually get past the HTC Screen? Again, it could take a bit more than 2 or 3 minutes on the first boot.
EDIT: And yea, you should be able to get back to a stock ROM no problem, or at least get back to a functioning phone, lol. Did you make a nandroid of your stock setup right after you rooted, before you tried flashing warm?
no i didnt make a nandroid backup sadly. im letting it sit for 10 mins before i give up on tyhis version
I don't think that ROM will boot as I'm pretty sure it has no boot image in it. Joelz was doing some stuff on the later builds and removed the bootimage.
Go into the thread and look for Vin's post. He is on the front page or on post 2. He has been the one updating the ROM for Joelz. the last version I knew of was around 01/12 or so?

How's this for a noob/newb question?
So I'm using a Photon 4G, which is on SBF 198_7, is rooted and unlocked (obviously), and for some reason absolutely refuses to boot the CM9 Beta. Currently I'm flashing 0.3.3 but previous attempts with .4 had the same result. I follow the instructions step for step (meaning I format system, cache, and data as well as perform a factory reset in CWM (running 5.0.2.7-photon3, although I've also tried the newest of the versions posted by Jokersax). When I install and reboot the phone sits on the red circle screen.
My logcat says:
exec '/system/bin/sh' failed: No such file or directory (2)
which to me is saying that /system may not be mounted at all.... I've read the CWM 5.0.2.8 has this problem but not with 5.0.2.7. Any ideas on what I should try to get past this issue?
Thanks!

If no worky, then this miggghhhtt:
This are the steps to be able to boot into 4.0:
1. Wipe everything as usual in CWM by Joker
2. Flash 0.3.1 and only 0.3.1
3. Reboot, into 0.3.1
4. Let it sit for 1 minute, mess around in it for that time.
5. Reboot into Recovery(CWM by Joker).
6. Flash 0.4.0, gapps and or the usual.
7. You can now reboot into it.

Since the instructions for coming from another rom says to format system, should the OP on the dev thread mention the double flash issue or is this something that doesn't happen that often?

Odd. Can't imagine why it won't read mine. I've just tried v2 and v3. Several downloads and flashes of each.
No dice
I've also tried ext3 and ext4 sdcard.
Wonder if its because they are partitioned?
Its really not that big of a deal , just a few extra steps for me.
Edit : I take that back, it is kinda a big deal as nandroid won't work due to not being able to read my sdcard.

that is weird, maybe it is because you card is partitioned. You might want to try a different card or format your existing. I usually do that every month or so, just to clean it up

This has been a similar issue for me on .4 and the version before.
If it seems like you followed the instructions but you are still stuck at the motorola dual core screen try installing one of these kernels. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1520417
They are at the bottom of the post and I used the 1.0 ghz one.
It solved the problem both times for me! Idk if Jokers' CM9 comes with a kernel or if you are supposed to track one down but this worked for me ..
OK a couple things with CM9 0.4.0 i'm noticing. These may or may not be known. Camcorder lags badly and then crashes everything. No macro option in the camera. Also, is there a way in ICS to have USB storage enabled by default when connecting to computer as it is in GB?

the camcorder is a known issue, and i dont know about the usb. i dont use it much. i use wifi file explorer to move anything i need to my phone.
OK thanks. Sucks that you need 3 keystrokes to turn usb on. Another thing I'm noticing is that once the phone goes to sleep the backlighting on the soft keys does not come back on. I wish i was smart as the devs to help with this stuff. I don't wanna sound like i'm complaining. Just making some bugs known.

[Solved] CM9 Bootloop (Android Apps Update then back to logo)

Okay I have been trying to get a CM9 rom to boot on my Atrix for about a week now. I am coming from Nottachtrix 1.3.1 on radio 37p with faux GB24 kernel. My bootloader is unlocked and I perform all necessary wipes before install. The furthest I have gotten any of the CM9 roms to boot is the screen that states Android Apps(or something) updateing. It then states starting system and boots back to the booting logo. I have tried fastboot -w. Formating data, cache, system, osh, pre install in mounts storage menu, and clearing both caches before and after install and I get the same results. This only happens with CM9 roms. I cannot get the CNA, Jokers, Turls, or Atrix tablet past the screen stated. I have tried with the latest rom racer from http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1204500 and both recovery and touch recovery from rom manager and I get the same results. I have posted my issue in the dev section, but decided this was better as I did not want to clutter up the dev forum with my problems. Could it just be my Atrix or would the 37p radio have something to do with the bootlooping issue. Any help would be very much appreciated.
For some odd reason I decided to pull my external SD card before boot, and freaking BOOM BANG POW NO BOOTLOOP!

Okay I have been trying to get a CM9 rom to boot on my Atrix for about a week now. I am coming from Nottachtrix 1.3.1 on radio 37p with faux GB24 kernel. My bootloader is unlocked and I perform all necessary wipes before install. The furthest I have gotten any of the CM9 roms to boot is the screen that states Android Apps(or something) updateing. It then states starting system and boots back to the booting logo. I have tried fastboot -w. Formating data, cache, system, osh, pre install in mounts storage menu, and clearing both caches before and after install and I get the same results. This only happens with CM9 roms.

Did you flash twice ?

I believe the problem is with the radio, I had this issue (on stock radio), then I upgraded to the newest CM9 Kang (0.4.4) and it went away. I then flashed the 37p radio in an attempt to fix a problem I've been having with my WiFi and bluetooth (they both don't work and cause reboots, I assume now it's a hardware problem) and the boot loop came back. I'm gonna try flashing some other radios to see if that works.
Yes flashed twice to no avail. Gonna try the 36p radio and stock to see if that fixes my issue.

No need to flash any ROM twice. Not going to discuss other than to say its not require
OP......Not your phone or radio. There is something you are doing incorrectly. Quite possibly wipe procedure. If I remember when I am at my PC in the morning I will PM you exact instructions, start to finish, for flashing one of the CM9 builds.

Trust me, the CM9 kang (not turl's version, haven't tried that) didn't work unless you flashed it twice up to version 0.4.2 (I skipped 0.4.3 and installed 0.4.4 straight without wiping and only flashed once and it worked, so it's possible they fixed the bug). I don't think anyone knows why, but it's been confirmed many times.

That is what I am hoping, but I have tried every procedure I could find within the forums. Your start to finish is gonna be my last hope.
So I followed the same steps I use for other roms and managed to get this one working http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1580449
Hey CaelanT any luck on getting me a step by step.

Thanks for reminding me. Will get something to you here in a few!
<edit> Check your messages!
Gonna give it a shot soon as I get off work.
EDIT:
Unfortunately that was a no go as well. Followed everything to a tee and tried different kernels. I can only get the AOKP rom to boot, but its is currently without USB storage. Does anyone know a difference in the roms that would cause my Atrix to boot on one and not the other. I can also manage to get the MIUI to boot.

I think something is going on with the kernel. You may have a bad processor. That's where my train of thought is right now. Sorry I couldn't get you up and running!

Thanks for all you help. Finally got it to boot by removing external sd card.
[EDIT] Not sure but I believe the problem I had with m external sd is I still had an ext4 primary partition on it from when I was using Webtop2SD. Copying everything over to pc now and reformating external to see if my assumption is correct.
Looks like the ext4 partition on as was the culprit.

Twrp won't back up boot.img only data and system

I really need help, recently my twrp won't back up the boot.img so I can't restore any of my nandroids, has this ever happened to anyone else and do you know how to fix it. Yea I make sure there is a check in front of boot also, I even unchecked it and rechecked it... please help me
your boot.img isnt modified from a rom so just grab it from the .zip file and put it in the backups folder for your respective backup with the proper file name and it'll restore just fine

yep i'm strating to think its my sd card, i formatted it and now its sticking... idk how long it will work tho
What firmware are you using, and what version of TWRP? I had some issues yesterday with 2.4+, and I would've been stuck if not for my S-Off status. I took the new OTA to experiment and quickly realized that it doesn't behave nicely with the older versions of TWRP. 2.3.1 was the most stable for this device for me.

Well chances are that your good to go. However if you suspect that its your sd then I'd recommend getting a new one as soon as you can just to avoid the risk of this issue happening again. Amazon always has good deals "imo". Nevertheless Glad you got it solved.
