I have a Nook Tablet (NT) that I have installed CM10 on to the emmc successfully. So I understand that process.
Details:fingers-crossed:
I'm trying to install CM10 to my new Nook HD which only has an SD card install, per this thread:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2063968
I followed the instructions exactly and CM10 installed and "worked":
Instructions:highfive:
Download the compressed image file cm10-sdcard-installer.img. Posted: 12/28
Unpack and write the image to your sdcard. For more info on how to do it, see this post.
(optional) To install CM10.1 instead of CM10, replace 'CM-10-hummingbird.zip' of the SD card boot folder with any CM10.1 image file you can download here in this page (you need to rename the file exactly as above).
Insert into the device and boot (cold)/reboot (warm).
Wait for it to finish installation.
Enjoy your HD with CM10 (CM10.1)
CM10 installed properly, but it didn't install CWM or gapps. The boot menu does not have a "boot to recovery" option. :crying:
How do I install CWM and gapps to the SD card?
I assume that I'll need to make another SD card just to boot CWM. With that I should be able to install gapps, but:
Questions
How do I install gapps to one SD card when CWM is on a separate SD card?
Can I install CWM to the emmc on a Nook HD so it just comes up every time?
Is CWM supposed to boot from emmc or SD card?
Thanks for the help. I'll make sure to hit the "Thank" button for your replies. :good:
gapps install method
I ended up installing gapps.
Would be nice if bokbokan would put instructions similar to these on http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2063968
It's confusing coming from Nook Tablet(NT) land where you pretty much just put CWM on emmc and go.
Put gapps on CM10.1 SD card
Boot Nook HD with CM10.1 SD card installed.
Connect Nook HD while booted into CM10.1 to the PC via USB and move gapps-jb-20130301-signed.zip to the device (Computer\Barnes & Noble Nook HD\SD card). This is the directory that should have cm-10-hummingbird.zip already there.
Power down Nook HD.
Removed USB cable.
Removed CM10.1 SD card.
Unzipped sdcard-cwm-hummingbirdv4.zip to sdcard-cwm-hummingbirdv4.img
Created a CWM SD card by burning sdcard-cwm-hummingbirdv4.img wtih Win32DiskImager.exe
Booted Nook HD with CWM SD card into CWM v6.0.2.5.
Go to "- mounts and storage" in CWM
Remove CMW SD card.
Insert CM10.1 SD card.
mount /sdcard in CWM
Go back to "- install zip from sdcard" in CWM
"- choose zip from sdcard" in CWM
Find gapps-jb-20130301-signed.zip and install.

Hey guys, today i was messing around with my nook tablet and i tried to restore it and i acidently deleted everything. now when ever i boot its goes straight to CWM recovery. ive tried to flash recovery and stock reboot and nothing worked. Is there anyway to restore it using usb or anything else? thanks.
I ran into similar difficulty with this earlier today. What worked for me eventually was using
the CMW Windows installer on my SD card, which nerfed it down from 32GB to 2GB,
formatted that 2GB partition,
put the "acclaim_update.zip" folder in the root,
inserted the sd card,
plugged the tablet into the charger,
power+n cycled once, then regular boot and it went it.
Your results may vary, though. It took a few tries before I finally got it to boot from SD
How exactly do i do that?
Fix for the Cyanoboot CWM bootlooping...
It could help someone, haven't seen this simple fix around so i decided to post it up here.
1. boot into CWM from sdcard, see here to download the sdcard version , instructions to burn the image to your sdcard are there too.
2. once you have finished burning the image into your sdcard you will see the size of your sdcard will be reduced to less than 50 MB, CLICK on your sdcard and you will see some files in there.
3. Download 8gb-16gb_cwm_internal.zip from my thread and copy-paste it to your sdcard so you can flash CWM internal using CWM sdcard version. HOPE YOU DONT GET CONFUSED.
4. Safely eject your sdcard from PC, power off your nook(long press power button), put the sdcard back into your nook, power on your nook.
5. It will boot into CWM sdcard then flash 8gb-16gb_cwm_internal.zip, reflash the ROM of your like (It should be on Internal sdcard, you can also swap to another sdcard containing the ROM while in CWM sdcard or resize CWM sdcard [50mb] with a partition tool software so you can copy a ROM to it).
6. Remove the sdcard from your Nook and select reboot system now from CWM
Done!
Your Nook tablet should now boot normally!!!
NOTE: the 8gb-16gb_cwm_internal.zip made by @succulent has few options missing so consider to install another internal CWM later. This process will just make you fix the bootlooping process and boot your device normally.

Flash "acclaim_update.zip"
I recently made a thread on how to flash "acclaim_update.zip" in CWM so head on over to it and see if it works for you and remember do a factory reset from CWM. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1762024

Do the following:
1. Obtain root, see item 1 in my signature and flash the latest CF-Root
2. Make a CWM backup after the phone rebooted
3. Download ARHD 7.0.0 and place it on the external sd card, copy importants folders/files from the internal sdcard to the external sd card.
4. In CWM: do a data/factory reset, wipe cache and dalvik cache, in mounts and storage format system, cache and data.
5. Flash ARHD and choose full wipe and backup efs in Aroma, install the rom and tweaks you want and install.
6. Reboot and you`re done
I am so lost, I am reading and reading and can't figure out how to flash a new image to the Nook. What are the exact steps to putting CM 10.1 on it?
I followed this guide and it boots from SD Card into Cynagenmod swirling boot circle if I don't hold the Nook button then it just goes black and I can't do anything from there. If I try to SDC Boot it just black screens. I and boot INT and that is stock with ADW Launcher and Play Store.
I so want to flash a full Jelly Bean on this. Can someone step this idiot through doing that please?
This is development section. Your problem belongs to q&a,
nevertheless i will try to help you.
take this and put it in internal emmc (sdcard)
http://celticstorage.co.uk/cm10/CWM_v6.2.7_sgdisk_emmc.zip
then download your rom of choice and gapps and put them into the same place, preferable in root.
Find here a bootable to cwm sd card
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1640958
Use it to boot straight to cwm then flash cwm package into internal emmc. Remove ext-sdcard and reboot to internal recovery and fully wipe factory reset the nook.
Then flash rom+gapps
Reboot and enjoy.
To boot to internal cwm press N+Power button.

Thank you, I had finally figured it out but I couldn't get the nightly CM 10.1 to work. I went with and AOKP release (I had used it with ICS on the Kindle Fire at one time) and it actually worked. Was able to install the gapps also. I am now in the process of installing all my purchased apps from the Play Store.
This was way more difficult than the Kindle Fire to root and install a custom ROM but I should have it now.
THE PROBLEM: Can't get TWRP to install cm_acclaim_10.2_12NOV2013_HD.
So I am using the SD boot files (flashingb boot, MLO, u-boot, and recovery) with openrecovery-twrp-2.6.3.1-acclaim-sdcard.img renamed to altboot.img to try and install cm_acclaim_10.2_12NOV2013_HD and GAPPS (an October version?) to EMMC on my Nook Tablet. So what I've done:
SD Card:
1. Formatted card with SDFormatter
2. Partitioned 500MB space in FAT32, set to primary, set to active. Named partition "BOOT"
3. Put on the 4 SDBoot img files, cm_acclaim_10.2_12NOV2013_HD, AND GAPPS
Installing
1. Used recovery.img (pretty much stock recovery) to wipe cache/factory reset, wipe cache partition, wipe Dalvik.
2. Rebooted and opened altboot (TWRP), selected install >> external SD >> cm_acclaim_10.2_12NOV2013_HD
3. TWRP says it cannot install cm_acclaim_10.2_12NOV2013_HD (bad file). What gives?
I've tried several different zip ROMS, and I've tried reformatting the card several times. I'm stumped. Would really like to get this done and have 10.2 on eMMc. Any tips?
One more important thing, I am not burning the img onto the card with win32diskimager because I didn't think you could "burn" multiple images into one card. So I've been just dragging them in. Still takes me to boot screen, sooooo...........
I guess I am just stuck on how to get TWRP to accurately flash the ROM to eMMC. Should I move the CM10.2 to internal storage and point TWRP there to flash the system?
Is there a reason why that you opted to use TWRP v2.6.3.1?
I'd suggest that you try using CWM v6.0.2.8 (which should be available at http://goo.im/devs/succulent/acclaim/recovery), it's known to work: I used it successfully to flash 10.0 through 10.2 (see http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=43326042&postcount=123 for more info).
This is my first attempt at rooting and flashing a Nook Tablet. I have an 8GB version 1.4.2 Tablet that I've been trying to flash since 9pm last night. I have 3 different SD cards that I've tried in various combinations across using a guide from Sal Yanez on pureandorid with no luck. I'll outline the steps below in how i've tried to do so...
1) Downloaded and burned the NT16or8gbV47SDimagefile.img to an SD card using Win32DiskImager. The partition comes out to 70MB and I then insert it into my powered off NT.
2) Insert the USB cable into the NT and then into my PC which causes it to boot to CWM recovery (version 5.05.5 i believe.)
3) I select "install zip from SD card" and select the Root_8gb-or-16gb-NTV4_7.zip rom. After it has installed, I unplug the cable and select reboot.
4) The reflashed rom boots and I can access a pseudo-version of android with ADW launcher by pressing the 'n' hardkey. From here, I can access the android apps list menu and select ES File Explorer to install the Nook Recovery Flasher apk.
5) With that installed, I select "Flash CWM Recovery" and wait for it to say it's completed, then select "Reboot to Recovery" after ejecting my SD card.
6) I then copy a CWM recovery zip and a CM rom zip to a second SD card. The combinations i've tried are further below...
7) After rebooting into recovery, I insert the second SD card into the NT and then select "install zip from SD card" and select the CWM recovery file. Once it's installed, I reboot again.
8) After booting and getting back to the ADW launcher, I navigated back to Nook Flasher app and select "Reboot to Recovery"
9) After rebooting into recovery again, I now select "wipe data/factory reset" and then "wipe cache partition" before selecting "install from SD card" and selecting the CM rom file.
10) In all cases, i'll get one of two errors, either i get a status 7 error (presumably because my CWM version isn't compatible with the CM rom file) or it begins to install before the screen flashes white a few times, then tries to reboot and gets stuck at the "read forever" screen. I usually wait about a minute or so before powering it down and then restoring back to stock v1.4.2 via a bootable image i have on a third SD card.
Here are the combinations i've tried (CWM 6.0.2.7 + CM 10.2.1, CWM 6.0.2.7 + CM 10.1.1, CWM 6.0.2.7 + CM 10.1.3, CWM 6.0.4.3 + CM 10.2.1, CWM 6.0.4.3 + CM11 snapshot 11/24/2014, CWM 6.0.4.3 + CM11 nightly 1/5/2015)
So my ultimate question is this, am i just an idiot and I just need to wait longer in step 10? I've felt like i've waited upwards of 3 or 4 minutes, but as it was getting late last night, it might've been shorter and just seemed like I waited that long. Is there some issue with getting CM10 or 11 on the 8GB NT? I've read a thread which stated the 8GB does not play well with CM but i've also seen contradictory information from those who've gotten it to flash successfully. Could it be that the stock v1.4.2 needs to be updated to v1.4.3 first before trying to do the above steps?
Any help is very much appreciated as I've spent several hours now trying to do something that seemed to be fairly straightforward and should've been a 30 min job at the most.
If you are aiming to install a custom ROM like CM to replace stock ROM on EMMC, there is no need to first root the stock ROM with your steps 1-4, as it's going to be totally replaced with the custom ROM. See http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2575489 for background info.
See http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=51377882&postcount=163 and http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2692403 respectively for how to flash CM10 and CM11 on your NT EMMC.
Thanks for the assistance Digimax, I was finally able to get CM11 successfully flashed by burning a bootable SD image from succulent's blog onto an SD card, and then copying the other files from the guide you linked to onto the nook's emmc. Once booted into the TWRP recovery from card, I wiped and then flashed CWMchrmhoffman, CM11, and gapps all in queue, and that seemed to do the trick! Very pleased with the result and finally relieved to move onto other things after several hours of frustration. Thanks again! :highfive:
