I've tried two different roms in the last week with the same end result. The first was caynogenmod 10.0 stable and nightly. Now i just tried with slimbean 4.22. Installs are both successful but when the nooks gets passed the caynoboot screen and shows the splash screen from the rom, it freezes then powers completely down. I've noticed an error in wiping data/factory reset which says "E:format_volume: make_extf4fs failed on /dev/block/mmcblk1p2", i was wondering if this may be what is causing my issue? I'm using clock work mod recover version 5.0.2.8. My wipe methods are data/factory reset, cache partitions, and dalvik cache. Any suggestions or opinions would be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance.
I have no idea if this is causing your problem, but as I understand you're supposed to use CWM 6.x.x when installing CM10 or 10.1.
I will try that then, I haven't messed with the nook in sometime now and had actually thought about updating the recovery. Any recommended version or just whatever is the latest?

You can find Succulent's recent compilation of CWM and TWRP at his recovery repository http://goo.im/devs/succulent/acclaim/recovery. Use "***sdcard.img" for SDcard based recovery (rename it to recovery.img before copying over to the SDcard boot partition). "flashable[recovery].zip" are recovery image you can flash onto emmc.
FWIW, you can find pointers on how to install CM10 internally at http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=43326042&postcount=123.

So...I can't install either of the two CM based ROM's I've downloaded. However, on the first try, I installed VEGan, and then tonight TNT Lite, with no issues. Any CM ROM I try to install just sits on the loading screen, regardless of how long I wait. Is there something special that needs to be done to install them, different than what I do for other ROM's? (Clear data/cache, flash the ROM, clear data/cache again, reboot.)

I believe you have ClockworkMod 0.8 recovery, since you were able to flash Vegan Rom.
In general, before you flash the different rom
1. Back up your current rom
2. wipe data (factory reset)
3. wipe cache
4. flash the rom
5, flash gapps
6. reboot
Hope this helps
There have also been some reports of G-Tablets coming out of the box with incorrect partitions.
Using NVFlash has cured those issues. You should then be able to flash CM7 Roms through CWM like everyone else.
I repartitioned with 2048/0, shouldn't that rule out any partitioning problems?
I'm trying it again right now with flashing the rom then gapps.zip, waiting for it to boot...or just stay on the boot screen.
Format system and data, then follow those steps again. I ran in to similar issues when I hadn't formatted.
Also, do the three wipes again after installing the ROM and gapps.
Holy crap! I see the CM boot screen now! Thanks for the help guys. Now, do I still need to do the market fix (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=865245)? It looks like from their changelogs that the latest version of Flash is cooked into the ROM so I shouldn't have to do that part from the guide, but I'm wondering about the market.
Well, the market seems to have everything, including an app (power control plus) that none of the other rom's let me see, so I seem to be good to go! Thanks again guys!
Thanks for the suggestion - and I'll readily admit I'm WAY out of my comfort zone with Android.
When I format the /system /data do I have to mount first?
What order do the steps run in? Do I partition and then format /system /data?
cannot install cm based roms
I was trying to reset from factory rest but failed when my gtablet stucked and apparently did something wrong along the way. Now when I turn it on, I get the 3 birds screen, followed by G-Tabdevs screen, then dead. I do have clockwork mod installed on it.
1 when I clicked factory rest, it just return to the manue and said cannot find the file.
2 when I did a back up, it went through boot image,recovery image,system and then taskbar stopped in the half at settings.apk and then dead.
3 when I tried to followed this link http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=865245
to use the external tf card to flash, Gtablet doesnot recogonize the external card, while I can read all the files in gtablet. I can copya single small file but cannot paste a recovery and update.zip on gtablet. Each time I copied a file from gtablet, then it is dead. I have to return on by pressing power and volume+.
4 I tried adb to push update.zip to gatblet,also failed. I feel my gtablet can only allows me to read it and refuse me to do anything on it.
Any ways to reboot my gatblet brick?
Please help! I've been reading forums all weeks trying to figure out how to fix it and am not having any luck!
Appreciate any suggestions
So I followed this guide to install CM10 on my nook tablet http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=35669871&postcount=1
Went great except now whenever I boot up my nook tablet it goes directly to clockwork recovery. There is currently no microsd card in the nook tablet.
I have also tried using AOKP from here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1975214 and I have the same issue.
I also tried this build of AOKP http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1641145
You should try to use SD-based CWM and flash "flashable_fix_bootloop.zip" posted at http://iamafanof.wordpress.com/category/cyanogenmod-2/.

Try this : http://www.mediafire.com/?4s77jvehqvsuruu
1)Download it
2)put the files ( flashing.boot Mlo etc...) on your sdcard,
3)completely turn off your nook ,
4)put your sd card on nook and turn it on.
5) press the ''N'' button when you see ''cyaogenboot'' (it also saids press ''n'' button for BOOT MENU)
6) in Boot Menu just choose option #1 (Internal Boot) it should boot into cm10
I had the same issue, but after a time (after making some supid things) i bricked my tablet, I figured this out with some help, It worked for me so it should work for you too.
So I was able to randomly boot into the bootloader and boot into CM but now it keeps rebooting into clockwork.
I have also attempted installing CM10 using the following link including using the flashable_fix_bootloop.zip that I cannot sadly can't link to due to being a new user
and the only difference is that now CWM went from blue accents to orange.
The function of flashable_fix_bootloop.zip is to reset BootCnt counter and BCB flag (see http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=21381141&postcount=1) in the event they do not get reset properly in some installation/recovery process. It seems that your "recovery boot-loop problem" might have a different underlying root-cause, hence re-setting these counter+flag by itself will not cure the problem.
Which particular build version of CM10 and AOKP ROM did you try?
Also, did you do "wipe data & factory reset" & "wipe cache" as part of the ROM installation?
Have you tried reflashing the ROM once you're in CWM? (As I underestand you may have, but just making sure!)
Maybe download it again (or try another one) and the flash it again (after the usual wipes) with your new recovery.
I took your advice and attempted to reflash. I did a factory reset, wiped the cache, then installed cm_acclaim_10.1_21APR2013_17_HD.zip and gapps-jb-20130301-signed.zip and I have the same problem. I continue to boot back into CWM

When you boot from the SD card have you tried holding down 'n' to get to the menu then selecting SDC boot? It should boot cm10.1. Try selecting SDC recovery also and see what it does. You might be doing something wrong during the process.
You can also try renaming your boot file for cm10.1 to altboot. Then try it.
I am not attempting to boot off of SD, I am trying to install the zip files that are stored on SD to the internal memory. Holding down the "n" button just brings up CWM as it did before. I also downloaded an image designed to be booted off SD and renamed it to altboot like you suggested and it booted directly into CWM again.

May be nothing, but what version of CWM do you have on your NT, will be at the top of the screen in recovery?

6.0.3.1

Still may be a shot in the dark, but try downgrading CWM to an earlier version, but not so early as to be unable to flash CM10. Maybe 6.0.2.5 to 6.0.2.9
Not ensuring this will work but it may be worth a shot. At least it won't put you in any worse condition than what you are in now.
Good Luck
Another thought, did you make a backup of your last ROM before flashing CM10? If you did I would assume you tried flashing your backup already, but have to ask.
It looks like you may have used two different builds of CWM based on one of your earlier posts - change of font color.
You also try the repart image if you don't have a stock backup. Find it on raywaldo site. It will re write your internal storage with stock ROM. Then flash cm afterward.
Woot I got the factory rom reinstalled, time to install cynogenmod again
I had the same problem

However I was still unable to install any 4.2.2 ROMs + gapps.
I was on cwm 6.0.2.8 (or whatever the exact numbers are)
updated to cwm 6.0.3.7
wipe data
install rom
install gapps
wipe cache
wipe dalvik
everything works now.
Hi,
I am starting from rooted stock with emmc CWM v5.0.2.8
As always before flashing any ROM I backup, wipe data/factory reset, and wipe dalvik cache.
I have tried flashing SlimBean, LiquidSmooth, CyanogenMod unofficial, and CyanogenMod nightly; all with the same result.
Cyanoboot comes up just fine, then it proceeds into the ROM boot animation, sometimes it displays the boot animation for a few seconds,freezes then loops, others it just loops.
I have tried flashing "flashable_fix_bootloop.zip"
I have also tried flashing from CWM 6.02.7 but that recovery for me is very laggy and cannot access sdcard
I am really confused I would love for my tablet to be on jellybean the stock B+N is terrible
Any help is much appreciatted,
thatsnailguy
You could always do what I describe in the topic that at this moment is right below yours. Not the most elegant, but almost fool proof! The CM10 I use is better than any 10.1 I have tried. Either way, it's better than stock.

To flash CM10 you need a newer version of CWM v6.x.y.z. See http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=43326042&postcount=123 for more pointers.
If you still cannot boot past the boot-animation try flashing Succulent's fix flash_kernel_acclaim_30MAR2013_HD.zip at posted at http://iamafanof.wordpress.com/2013/02/18/cm10-1-jellybean-android-4-2-2-for-nook-tablet-0218/ (under the heading "Flash this if your NT doesn’t boot newer kernel").
Thank you apparently I downloaded a wrong version of a 6.x.x.x cwm its all working now.
So, I was able to successfully unlock my bootloader, got TWRP 2.6 on it, and put a few different ROMs on my machine; however, I have yet been able to install a ROM and get it to move past the boot animation.
I have tried the latest nightly ROMs for CyanogenMod 10.1 and 10.2 for my TF201, both of which get stuck in CM's boot animation. I just tried the same with the newest Baked ROM, only to be stuck in its boot animation as well.
I'm trying to figure out if there was something I forgot to do. I have been able to revert to a backup of my stock Jellybean 4.1.1 that I stored using TWRP, but haven't been able to use anything else.
Are there any thoughts on this? Have I missed something? I was able to use the unlocker utility and each boot offers the confirmation in the top-left that my bootloader is unlocked. I am able to enter TWRP from the recovery mode. Shouldn't it be as simple as selecting a ROM's zip archive and installing it from TWRP?
Have you done a full wipe before installing, including cache and dalvik cache partitions?

Try installing twrp 2.5. AS I just read in another thread there are problems with 2.6..

Factory reset
After flashing CM 10.1 nightly last night i had the same issue. I booted into my recovery console (flatline cwm) and performed a factory reset. This seemed to clear whatever issue was bothering the tablet. Still sat there for about five minutes on the animation after the reset but then progressed into setup.
Doubt if it makes a difference but mine was connected to the dock too.
If you're still stuck the method that worked for me yesterday was:
Used Flatline CWM as the recovery, installed using fastboot
Used an external memory card to copy the relevant zip files to my sdcard, recovery couldnt find them otherwise using adb push
Installed from zip using Flatline CWM
Installed gapps using Flatline CWM
Booted, got the issue you had
Booted into recovery, performed a factory reset
Told recovery to restart the machine
Booted into setup screen after loading for a few minutes
Been using twrp since rooting note II. I wanted to try out 4.4 PA but they said to only use cwm. It was late so I decided to be lazy and since I used to use rom manager all the time I installed it to flash cwm recovery then booted into recovery to install touch version. It wasn't showing the touch version so selected to restart to check to see where I saved it to it would not boot past the first "note II" splash screen. Battery pull then back into recovery and went ahead and flashed PA 4.4 and now it will get past the splash screen then shows boot animation but then starts all over.
Is this a rom manager issue?
can I flash twrp from within cwm recovery?
will I have to basically reroot it?
Any suggestions on how to get back to twrp and to a usable phone?
thanks
If you download a .zip of twrp and flash it you will have twrp for your recovery.
As long as you flash a rooted rom, you will be rooted.
Not sure what happened with the boot loop, did you by chance wipe the system without flashing another before booting?

Nope did my standard wipe cache, wipe dalvik, and factory reset then flashed rom then gapps. Going to go back to twrp and wait for 4.4 to be more stable before I try it out again and maybe then I can use twrp to flash it.
thanks for the help

Have you wiped data at all? You need to wipe data / factory reset when switching roms, and it sounds like you havent.

As stated above, on both cwm and twrp I wiped caches and did factory reset and still having the issues. Once back on twrp I even formatted internal memory thinking maybe rom manager messed something up on it and still can't get passed the splash screen.

Copy a ROM to your SD card (external not internal)
Install cwm and format data (actually full format, where /data/media gets wiped) and system
Install rom
Reboot
TWRP has some issues randomly with corrupting /data, that's why I no longer use it.

Finally got it. Thought using odin to flash back to root 66 and start fresh would work but after that it was still going to the splash screen then black and a battery pull had to be done. TWRP back ups would fail when trying to restore, so I reverted back to an older version of twrp and it finally let a back up be installed and it booted up just fine!!
thanks for all the suggestions
Im having a similar problem to yours, I am using twrp and flashed PA 3.99 the phone works great, but if my battery dies or i restart the phone or shut it down it automatically wont get passed the samsung logo, or sometimes the PA logo, the only work arounds ive seen to it is to wipe the cache and dalvik to boot, but when that fails i have to install the whole rom over again. any ideas?
