My's NT can't boot to OS, it's screen is freezed at image a box and can not go to CWM's menu.
Before that, I'm used app called "Nook Tablet Recovery Flash" to install and reboot into recover mode.
It can't boot to OS, I mount image CWM into SDCard to boot from SDCard, but not changed...
All time it can boot to CWM by app.
Please help me, My's NT is version 16GB, it has been rooted.
See Post #1 in NT Reference Thread
Are you saying you can boot to recovery, but not to normal android functioning? If so, just follow the directions in "How to recover my system after i messed up and i have access only to CWM" at http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=20774737&postcount=1
I couldnt get past the box either. I tried several methods, and could not get anywhere farther than loading cwm from an sdcard (anything with adb just would not work for me) until I tried Albert's method (see after item 6 for windows method, which I used.

[UnBrick]TOTAL WIPE and reflash back to 1.4.0 via Ubuntu Recovery --Now Easier!!!!
similar problem! help!
i cannot seem to get CWM to run from sd card, and cannot use my NT. i have a rooted nook tablet 16g, and recently switched to CM7, now when i power on, i get the "n" symbol, and then the pic of the box, but it goes nowhere from there. i tried to boot with no sdcard, got "n" then pic of box. i ran CWM before from sd, i dont understand. have i totally bricked my nook? i saw the post about the ubuntu wipe fix, but this didnt work for me either. can anyone help me? i miss my NT.
It doesn't seem real common, but I seem to have permabricked my nook. I can't connect to it via adb, can't boot to recovery from sd or the emmc, and can't seem to get it to recover via sdcard. I've tried Adam's Unbuntu Unbrick, copying the recovery to the sdcard, and trying to recover to 1.4.2 via the sdcard.
How I broke it:
I installed Goomanager and installed TWRP, and then flashed to CM9 with the 3.0 kernel. The recovery and CM9 were working as well as could be expected, but CM9 had too many Sleep of Death issues so I decided I wanted to roll back to a nandroid backup of CM7. TWRP couldn't see my backups, so I decided I'd flash the recovery back to CWM via indirect's nookrecoveryflasher.apk. This was the end.
The symptoms:
I rebooted after using the nookrecoveryflasher flashing back to CWM, and now it just displays the n with the copyright info. It then flashes white briefly, then a slightly bigger n is displayed, it gets brighter, then dimmer, then a black screen (still backlit). The charger goes from red-orange to green after the screen goes black, and charging appears to be halted. If I hold down the power button for 8 secs, the backlight goes off and the charger light turns back to red-orange and it seems to charge. ADB lists no devices.
Are there any suggestions for things I should try that I haven't already? I thought this was pretty much unbrickable but something went really badly, and this should have been a relatively "safe" operation.
Update:
I'm now able to boot to CWM from the SD card, not sure why I couldn't previously. From here I did a nandroid restore of CM7, but after restore/reboot, it gives me the exact same symptoms. I also tried to flashing the CM7, CM9 roms, but still doesn't seem to actually boot into them. Is there a way to complete unroot/reset from recovery?
Did you try removing and inserting the sdcard back in while in twrp?
I stayed with cwm and I was able to flash both kernel versions of cm9 just fine. Since u already tried the 1.4.2 revert to stock, your situation seems quite troublesome indeed

I can't get into either TWRP or CWM now.
Hm sounds like your recovery is screwed up...

Do you know what kind of bootloader you are using? Is it cyanoboot?
Sent from my Nook Tablet using xda premium
Cyanoboot was installed when I installed CM9, but after trying to flash back to TWRP, it doesn't seem to be coming up any more.
Wow that's unfortunate. I was thinking if u were using cyanoboot you would be able to hold the n button to choose where to boot from...

Have you tried burning a clockworkmod recovery image to an sdcard and booting into cwm via said sdcard? If you can get this to work, you can flash the internal cwm recovery zip to overwrite the internal recovery partition.
Also try the 8 failed boots method. Each time you see the gray n logo dissapear when powering on, pressand hold both the n button and the power button until your nook tablet shuts off. Repeat this 8 times and your tablet should be forced to boot into recovery mode. Good luck!

I don't think that will work, as it sounds as though the recovery partition was broken with indirect's app (it happens and I think there is a thread he made with 1 method of fixing broken partitions but it requires you to have drivers set up properly for it).
I had this same thing happen to me when indirect pushed his new app that supports the 8GB and 16gb models out. I got the big N and I ended up flashing cwm via sdcard cwm and then flashing cm9 again via the newly flashed internal cwm.
Yes I've tried putting CWM on the sdcard but the same thing happens. I've also tried 3 different sdcards 2,8,16Gb. I've tried meghd00t's repart.img and it all behaves the same. It's as if the code that gets called to read the sdcard is broken now.
It sounds like after that white flash is when CMW should load but instead I get a bit bigger n, and then it goes black.

I also tried to flashing the CM7, CM9 roms, but still doesn't seem to actually boot into them. Is there a way to complete unroot/reset from recovery?

try locating the stock 1.4.2 rom in the development section and flash that. see if it works.
In general if you are in CWM you have adb access at that time. The world is at your wish when adb works. Push stock recovery, etc., etc. Instead of trying to flash (which continues to fail) use adb to recover by of the many methods available. I would begin with pushing stock recovery and boot recovery (by command or power + N).
Good Luck.

Did you flash TWRP using the .zip from the 1st-2nd page? That TWRP .zip is bugged so as not to recognize an external sd. I had a problem like this until I used a recovery sd (ill put a link in here in a sec)
I had a terrible 13 hour run of trying to fix it before I finally got it to boot, then I opened up my gmail inbox and found out that I had won a Transformer Pad 300 from Phandroid.com, needless to say after 13 hours I was nearly hysteric when I found this out, hope your issue gets resolved.
I also couldnt mount sd, couldnt adb, couldnt fastboot, couldnt get sd to show up in TWRP so maybe this method will work:

Hi Guys,
I've tried installing Superuser via this method.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2038464
Everything was going good, I ran the commend to flash twrp blob, i rebooted the tablet and it booted up.
I copied the SU.zip file on my sd card slot and I tried botting back into recovery.
All that happens now is that the tablet just loops at the the device is unclocked screen..
Help please?
Thanks

can you get into recovery ?
(hold volume down while booting)
I have a 16GB Nook Tablet running the latest Liquid Smooth 4.2.2
To boot up my nook I have to reboot into recovery 2 times before I can reboot system into my tablet. The first recovery is 5.00.x - blue CWM recovery and then when it boots up into recovery again it boots into 6.x CWM recovery - orange with carbon fiber background. Why is it doing this? Any way to stop it? Any help on this issue is appreciated
I suspect this has to do with how you installed your ROM. Did you by any chance do it from CWM 5 without installing CWM properly?

Perhaps you have a bootable SD card with CWM in the slot?
If so remove the card and reboot to see if the problem goes away
If it's not the case, you can try flashing one of flashable_CWM_6.0.x.y.zip from Succulent's recovery repository http://goo.im/devs/succulent/acclaim/recovery.

See it booted properly know. Funny thing is I was trying for ages to get a bootable sd. I eventually gave up and just flashed on my internal sd.
I did an internal flash of 10.1. It works and boots however I forgot it include gaps when I did the flash. Now when I boot to recovery on the universal boot loader it does not recognize the sd and I only have the following options: internal emmc normal, internal emmc recovery and start fastboot. cyan can does acknowledge when I insert and remove the card however I can not read from it when I goto file manager. So reflashing in cyan wont work as far as I know. Card is formatted to fat32.
When I connect nook to computer via usb, it says failed driver installation.
I have tried to boot then put in the sd [didn't work]
I have tried to hook up the usb, to nook and computer to force recovery mode,[didnt work]
I have tried flashing a new rom onto sd and booting [didnt work]
I have tried flashing new rom and using the touchscreen firmware flasher but the os cant see the card when inserted.
Use FAT?

I'd suggest you try burning a pre-made CM SDcard image from http://iamafanof.wordpress.com/2013...id-4-3-for-nook-tablet-imgsdc-boot-09aug2013/.
If it fails to boot your NT's card reader might be faulty.
If it boots successfully, you can proceed to reflash CM using pointers from http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=43326042&postcount=123.

Thanks that worked. Thanks so much!!!
Was having the same issue with mine and used this same procedure to fix it so...double thanks.
