Hi guys,
I've been running a few ICS and JB roms lately on my NT, but I can't seem to be able to get more than 4h of use out of it (video, music, reading etc). On CM7/stock, I used to be able to get 7-8h out it (especially reading stuff), with no sync or wifi turned on. At this stage I would like to request, if possible, a CM7 build or anything based on 2.3, that is flashable to EMMC with recovery builtin.
I have been trying some of the roms from iamafanof.wordpress.com and pretty much all CM7 NT builds on XDA, but they're all for SD boot, which in my opinion is suffering from performance issues (undestandable, considering it's running from a microSD card) and it's not practical at all.
I'm prepared to throw in a donation as well, just let me know please. I would like to get more use out if it, it's meant to do better than what JB/ICS roms are offering at the moment.
Please don't take this as offensive or anything, I didn't mean that at all, it's just my opinion and I strongly believe that the whole Nook Tablet community would benefit from having a CM7 build, flashable to internal memory.
Thanks in advance guys.

Yep, as i suspected this build bicked my NT, so I had to go through the whole lot... stock, rooting and getting CM10 back...
So NO, this is not for internal flashing.
Anything else?

The ROM was clearly labeled by its builder CelticWebSolutions as for "Internal". Which version of Recovery did you use to flash it? To flash CM7 you need CWM 5.5.x, see http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1640958.
The only other CM7 build I am aware of is Succulent's at http://iamafanof.wordpress.com/2012/11/11/how-to-guide-bootable-cm7cm9cm10-sdcard-for-nook-tablet/.

I have a Droid X that I've flashed from FroYo to GB and back several times.
I just returned a Chinese, Inc. tablet that I flashed from GB to ICS and back several times.
I want a vanilla Nook Tablet (ultimately with ICS on it) or a Samsung Galaxy 2 (7.0). But since I can get a "Certified Pre-Owned" Nook 16GB for $200, I'm leaning in that direction.
So-o-o-o...
By "vanilla", I mean I want an Android tablet with an Android UI. And I have no reservations about flashing the ROM. I'm here because I want confirm my understanding of the terminologies folks are using when they're talking about the Nook Tablet.
There are two methods for turning it into a vanilla Android tablet:
1) Internal
---a) Uses CWM installed from SDCARD to ahceive root, and
---b) Uses CWM to unzip an image and flashes the ROM
2) External
---a) Uses CWM run from SDCARD to achieve root, and
---b) Uses CWM to boot the tablet from SDCARD
Am I correct so far?
I need to ask these questions because I'm finding countless web pages describing very different methods for accomplishing the same goal. Life was easier with the Droid and the Chinese tablet;
1) Run this installer on the PC
2) Point to the ROM image
3) Connect the USB cable
4) Press ENTER
I may or may not even care about flashing it back to stock. But it looks like the option is there. True? It will probably come with 1.4.2, but if I restore it to 1.4.1, it will update itself back to 1.4.2?
My head hurts.
If the NT was manufactured early as 1.4.0 you can revert back to 1.4.1 or 1.4.0. You can block the update from automatically upgrading to 1.4.2. If it is a later NT and was shipped with 1.4.2 it can NOT be rolled back. The 16 GB NT's can be rooted and flashed to an Alpha Final CM7, gingerbread that is fairly stable with some bugs that can be worked around or an Alpha 0.03 CM9, ICS that in my opinion is a little rougher that is based on a gingerbread kernal. It acts and feels like ICS. Work is still in process on both roms.
I think you should read both the development threads for the roms and the support thread for CM7 to get the whole picture. Try the search for specific questions. You will find methods and videos for most of the options.

It's definitely the wild west here. I've never had an Android device where the experience was so diverse re: root, ROM, backup and what works and what does not.
For example, I got a later-model 16GB NT and had no trouble rolling it back to 1.4.0 w/ one of the stock root methods. I know the 8GB *can't* be rolled back because the ROM image for 1.4.0 assumes 1GB RAM (the 8GB nook has 0.5 GB). But I totally believe lots of people have not been able to do a 16 GB roll-back, because my NT's [I have both a 16 & an 8 for my wife] have their share of many of the quirks mentioned in the forum - - will/won't boot w. USB, work w/ some SD cards but not others, etc.
My advice is go ahead and get the NT - they are great devices, and the 16GB especially has way better hardware than a Kindle - and just get ready for a lot of patient trial and error. You have lots of experience w/ Android & rooting, so it's just being careful and keeping backups. There are a couple of full-restore methods for the 16GB if you really get in trouble.
But, yeah - - it's more of a challenge with an NT. I also have an HTC Inspire, and that was like "here is the best root method - do it! Here's the way to install ROMs - do it! Here's the way to back up..." With the NT it's been more like trying the 2 or 3 methods for each step of the process and finding which one works best on which tablet.
But, boy, do you feel like you've accomplished something when it's finally configured and running sweet - and I know I know this device better than anything I've owned before, after all that experimenting.
Good luck! ;-)

Actually to go internal, you don't even need to "achieve root." Boot into the normal B&N OS, mount to computer and transfer the internal rom zip file to the internal storage of the Nook. Next create the CWM bootable sd card, plug it into the nook and boot into CWM. Make a backup first thing.
Proceed to install from zip and navigate to the zip file you transferred to the Nook. Wipe data/cache and reboot. Ta da, vanilla android with whichever rom you choose.

As of now, the only rom running from sdcard external is CM7. And you don't need to fuss with CWM or anything internal to make this happen. All you need to do is burn the CM7 image to an sdcard, plug in and boot up and voila, external booting vanilla android. I should note though that some sdcards are fussy about this and some devices require you to be plugged into USB to boot from sdcard.
For simplicity sake, just go internal. You can always return to stock quite easily should you want/need to.

I agree - and strong second on having a couple of SD cards ready. I had a couple of good cards that just would *not* boot with CM7 on them, felt like giving up, then finally got a cheap PNY 16GB Class 4 and it booted right away.
[If you search far enough back in the forum there's a pretty long debate about which SD cards work best, and which don't seem to work at all. Of course, nobody ever actually solved that! ;-) ]
Just don't give up if the first card you use doesn't work. It's just another place where the NT's are quirky . . .
Just a quick update to say thanks for the help.
For a short time, I actually had both a Nook and a Tab 2 (7.0). I just sent the Tab back to Amazon. It had the laggy touch-screen that some people experience.
In contrast, the Nook is built like it was made for the military! What a difference. The Tab is nice, but kind of creaky, and a little too thin for my likes. And I kept hitting the power button, I had to hold it upside-down else the WiFi was weak, ...
I sort of suspect that all the glowing reviews about the Tab's build quality are shills (I'm going catch flack for that). There's just no comparison.
Do we know who actually builds the Nook?
Happily rooting, flashing and generally trying to brick my new (Certified Pre-Owned) Nook.

Link to the SD card test thread FYI.
Anyways, Nook is great.
I'd just root it 1st, then install CM7 to a MicroSD card (for portability and to keep the internals stock), then from CM7, block OTA updates from the CM settings.
The link in the Nook Tablet General forum with the 8/16GB MicroSD card image with Market is the one you want =D
First off, thanks to all the devs for making this NT awesome...(and other devices, of course) Just want to get that out of the way. :good: :highfive:
I just got the NT from a 1saleaday deal for really cheap a month or so ago, knowing the dev community has made it awesome. And now, I'm getting around to opening the box, and before i set it up, i turned it off, to do some good ol' XDA research. And, oh boy, I've read a lot.... And, I'm seeing this NT being a new beast. Almost overwhelming...
And before i ask a few questions, just want to mention I've had 5+ android phones with TONs of flashing and modding done to them. I normally don't have any issue, and never ask questions, always research and contribute...
SO, with that said: Normally with android phones, What I'm used to is: Root, flash recovery, flash rom, bam, new hawtness. It's usually a simple process, to me... This NT seems to have a lot more to it...
Now my main question is: Do i really need to use an SD card to flash a recovery and CM10.1? I havn't even set this thing up, (let alone care about what is on it...lol) Is there a way i can just use the root methods found on the forum transfer the files to the NT, flash a recovery, and in that recovery flash a rom, all on just the internal memory? (I guess there needs to be partitioning as well... Where would that come in? Probably before the rom flash...) Or does the BN software/bootloader make this difficult on the NT?
I guess I'm looking for just a run down for my situation, where i don't need a backup of the BN software or anything on the tablet, because i just want a sweet tablet with CM10... :fingers-crossed:
Thanks a ton for looking!

Congrats on your NT.
Now to your question,
No, you do not have to use the SD recovery method, but its really safe to keep a bootable recovery, that doesn't need any key persses or prompt to enter recovery.
Also having a bootable recovery , you can bypass the stock rooting, recovery flashing etc and directly get to flashing rom. So I'd suggest this. Even a 1gb (or maybe even smaller card) will do.
I personally feel partitioning is unnecessary.

Maybe you can do it another way, but WHY?????
That's what makes the NT so "mod-friendly": that you can do so much via sd-card.
If you want to repartition and the BN partitioning scheme (8 GB user space) is OK for you but you don't have store nearby, burn "repart.img" to sd and run it before rooting.
Burn another image and use that for rooting and flashing an updated recovery.
Start up to that updated recovery and flash your ROM.
Easy peasy!
First off, thanks for the responses. Last night i hit the NT head on, and am a proud owner of a NT w/ CM10.1 :laugh: I'm REALLY impressed with how it runs 4.2.1. It pretty equal to my Nexus 7 (Hisssss lol..)

Haha, I guess I'm just used to all my Nexus gear thats had no SD card slots, using an SD card is just awkward now. I had to end up pulling out my old netbook to image the cards, lol. But all is good on the NT now. I put CWM6 on the eMMC, and flashed CM10.1, couldn't be happier. It was stable enough, I ended up setting it up for the Girlfriend and calling it her Christmas gift. Smoooth.. :angel: lol.
Glad you got it set up! And yes, CM10 is so smooooth running on these babies!!
Hello I hope someone can help me with this. I rooted my daughter's Nook tablet with OS version 1.4.3 and put CM7 on there. Here is the link to the page I followed to do this, I used everything on there, http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2037368
Every once in a while the thing goes crazy and just opens things up on its own. It won't follow any of the buttons pushed or even when I tried to power off it took a long time for it to react. Any ideas or suggestion would be very helpful she's going back to college later today and would like this fixed before she leaves.
Thanks

That may be it, her battery was very low. Thanks for the info.
I'd suggest upgrading to CM10 next time you have her NT for a couple of days. CM7 for the NT got superseded by CM9 and CM10 well before its development got mature enough, its Android base (Gingerbread) is also ~2-year old and many new apps would not be backward compatible with it.
The easiest/quickest way to get on CM10 is to run it off an SDcard using a pre-made image from http://iamafanof.wordpress.com/2012/11/18/cm10-0-jellybean-sdcard-img-for-nook-tablet/. You can buy a 8GB class 4 microSD (Sandisk is best) for about $6 on ebay, burn the CM10 image and just mail it to your daughter to put it in and boot it up.
If you want to build the CM10 SDcard from scratch (for more customization) you can use the process described at http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=35786747&postcount=1, but you'll need to use the NT to "build" the card.
Just an FYI stock nook untouched freaks out with low battery as well. It isn't ROM related.

Is there anyway to keep the data already on my external memory? Or is it going to get wiped out? I plan on backing up my card anyway, but I'd rather avoid having to move everyback after I'm done. Thanks for the help.

1st thing i thought it was a known issue that gingerbread doesnt work well with NT's. and that there were always huge bugs when it is installed.
2nd thing u shud def update to newer cm10.2 stable with bexus-n kernel. works well even without kernel.just runs faster and saves more energy and charges faster.
3rd u should ALWAYS wipe data first especially if ur installing different android versions (exp: gingerbread to jellybean and such). even going from stock nook to a rom u shud wipe.....chance of leaving residual data from past rom might brick it or mess up the internal partitions. then ur in for a long drawn out recovery process. good luck :good:

if u are seeing anything unusual when in cwm recovery let me know. ANYTHING U THINK IS UNUSUAL.
Hello!
Firstly, I am not a noob, so you don't need to explain things TOO simply to me. I should know most of what you people are talking about.
So I won a Kindle Fire 2 at work, worked with the team to help with getting that rooted, and of course, android is simply amazing and makes the kindle infinitely better. My co-worker is requesting the same for her Nook Tablet. Now, my nook has been the most odd to root, but I also was talking to the dev team WHILE they were getting things to work, so I'm not sure if these tablets are harder to root with the botched OSs, or it was just because the devs were still making a solid method. That said, because it's not mine. I want to get the most stable OS running on it, and I REALLY do not want this to be the first device I brick.
Basically, what I am asking, is for the links to do things properly, and your opinion on the "best" ROM. I know for me, I have been wanting that freaking pie menu since it was announced from paranoid android. However, this is for my COWORKER and not ME, so I have to put my personal tastes aside and just go for stability/battery life.
From browsing the dev section, I found this which I assume is what I will be using to root, 8gb or 16gb model.
If that is correct, I can't seem to find for the LIFE of me find a recovery. I assume you guys use TWRP like the Kindle, or something similar, but I don't see guides for it. Maybe the nook doesn't need it? Maybe my root guide has in included and I couldn't see that?
So is that guide correct to use? I am NOT SURE if it's a 8gb or 16gb model unfortunately. I will be home in....9 hours, and will start working on it then. Assuming it's correct is there another guide to get a recovery? Lastly, favorite/most recommended ROMs?
Thank you much for your help!
Best of luck on your adventures,

Perfect and thank you! I assume all the steps work on the 8GB as well? That's pretty neat that you can use the SD card. One issue with the kindle was the difficulty putting things onto the device using fastboot.
So CM is the best choice again it seems, as usual. I MIGHT try the paranoid 3 if it's not too risky just so I can play around with it haha. I should look into porting ROMs so I can get myself that lovely pie menu on my poor kindle.
Thanks for the links!

Yeah I REALLY liked the EMMC/SD thing. I love the idea of, put on ROM, pop in SD, boot and test ROM. I wish ALL devices easily could do this. Does the Nook come with an SD card? I have no idea if she has gotten one for it. If it doesn't, and she didn't get one, I know I have a few although I'd not like to give them away haha.
Evening all,
I previously rooted my Nook Tablet 16gb using an SDCard and I believe CM7. I stopped using the nook for awhile and when I brought it back out CM7 would constantly crash. I don't know if I should start with the guide on the Android Developers sub forum as I don't know if that's current.
Could someone please point me in the right direction for where to get started? Is the SD card method the best? What launcher should I choose? I'll continue searching the forums but any help is greatly appreciated.
Thanks!

CM10+ is your best bet. It's based on Jelly Bean. Pretty stable also. CM10 released a stable version on 12/31 and CM10.1 is almost to it's stable release (RC4 was just released.)
The succulent versions are my favorite. Go to http://iamafanof.wordpress.com/ and check out some of the posts. Find something you like. If you need help just let me know.

Thanks to the both of you. Data, in my own research I have found the Succulent versions of which you speak. So far I've been following this guide here, but I've run into a pretty big issue. The images that I'm trying to download are hosted on this goo.im site, and I'm having numerous problems trying to download from there. If I can get the download to work, it slows to a crawl then ultimately stops. Any browser I use fails with this.
I'm still searching, however do you know of any other mirrors I would be able to download the releases?
Also, the Nook was already previously rooted. Do I need to update CWM or the root to be able to use CM10? And if so, how?
Thanks!
I managed to download the files that were necessary and got it running. The only problem I'm having now is the sluggishness that is being caused by CM10.1. Waiting to see if this is fixed via a reboot, but it's even taking a little while just to open the book on the Nook. I don't know if this is due to having previous files on the nook or anything. I need to start looking into ways to completely restore the Nook to factory condition and work at it from there as well. Even after the reboot just bringing the Nook out of lock can take awhile.
Also it appears some report that this can be untethered... and some report that they always have to reboot with power plug to get it to load CM10.1. Has anyone been able to force the issue one way or the other? Any idea why some have success and some don't? As always I'll continue searching, but if you get to the answers before I do I would appreciate it.

If you're running CM internally on EMMC I'd suggest you wipe /data (which will entail reloading your apps from Google Play) and /cache; if you're running CM off SD card you'd need to wipe the /data partition on the SD card (aka /data1 if you're using CWM version compiled by Succulent).

Digi I believe it's off of the SDCard. When I boot the Nook w/o power or SDCard it loads Nook software + root. I went ahead and formatted the data partition as well as the system partition (for some reason in my partition manager it was listed as EXT3)... got everything squared away. The OS part of it seems to be running a bit better right now... Loading a book in the Nook app still takes forever but I'm beginning to think that's because it's Game of Thrones, and it merged 4 books into one so it's like 3500 pages. It takes between 45-60 seconds to load each time I go in.

/system's partition type is supposed to be ext3.

You might want to take a look at this thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1005633 which discusses comparative performance of different brands and classes of SDcard for the purpose of running ROM.
CM10.1 is a speed demon on my mom's NT. I've never ran on anything but emmc, however.
