I'm really sorry if this is in the wrong place, but because I have less than the 10 required posts I am not allowed to respond directly to the thread I needed. I wasn't really sure where to put this.
I've been trying to root my Nook Tablet to CM10 unsuccessfully. I found this http://blog.the-ebook-reader.com/2012/01/02/nook-tablet-rooting-guide-complete-walkthrough-video/ which led me to believe that downgrading to the 1.4.0 update would be helpful. :good:
I followed the link from this, http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1402190 and downloaded the .zip and put it on an mSD. I proceeded to place it in the tablet, turned it on, and the update went through and my screen went black. After a minute or so I hit the power on button, and nothing happened. Nothing works on it now. I've tried hitting the power button for 20+ seconds then the 2 seconds, as well as the power + N button. The screen remains black. I can connect the nook to my computer and the power cable lights up, as well as when it's placed on the wall.
The Nook Tablet (it's a BNTV250) isn't turning on and I'm kinda freaking out. I need to get it to work, and if there's anything you guys can do to help me I'd really appreciate it.

Can you enter to recovery mode or download mode? If not, you probably have a hard-brick.
Are you sure that the files you have downloaded are for your device (this is the cause of the hard-bricks)?

Looking over the link, saw something that I missed last night. "This is for the Nook Tablet 16Gig version only. Do not use with 8Gig version". Mine is the latter.
Well this sucks.
I can't enter any mode because the screen won't even light up. The only evidence that there's anything alive in there is that when I connect it to my PC I hear that the computer recognizes it, then unrecognize it. And the cable lights up. That's it.
Is there anything else I can do? I mean, I brick computers all the time but they never stay bricked. Why would the nook be so irreversible?
EDIT: I just tried the instructions from here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1663836 and it just booted and is working its magic. Thanks! Super happy right now.

If your phone was bricked in any way, but still shows something on the screen when powered on or plugged in, try this.
1. Take out battery, put it back in. (to turn the phone fully off)
2. Don't turn it the phone on!
3. Plug the phone into your PC, do not hit the power button!
4. See if the phone shows anything on the screen
IF the phone screen does show the battery charger or something else on the screen after being plugged in without you hitting the power button, so far so good.
5. Now while it's on like this, hold the volume up and volume down buttons.
6. Hold the power button as well as the volume buttons until the screen goes black.
7. As soon as the screen goes black, let go of the power button! But DON'T let go of the volume buttons!
When done properly, this will always get you into Download mode. After that you should be able to use Odin to revert to stock, tar and instructions here:

This fixed my 'odd' bricks. Over and over again.
I'd say it's impossible to truly brick this phone.
I have been researching this most of the day, due to some testing I was doing, and the one thing I have come to realize is that this phone recovers well from "brick" it's not a true brick it's just scary. One of the posts I read, here on xda, said that unless the blue progress bar started advancing while using Odin, you can unplug, pull battery fairly safely.

Haha well that's exactly what happened to me. I flashed wrong with Odin and it failed halfway through, and I had no choice but to reboot the phone.
And when I did I got a truly odd screen. All I could see was a picture of a phone connected to an exclamation point connected to a laptop. That's it. Lol.
And I fixed it by doing this.
omg, i love you This totally fixed my problem XD
Everyone kept saying go to download mode, but no one ever said to "7. As soon as the screen goes black, let go of the power button! But DON'T let go of the volume buttons!"
super life saver... thanks alot
I actually did find someone else say to do that but it was out of luck as it was deeply buried. Don't remember where it was here lol
Its nice to have people who help us newbies

Yea, last night I was messing around with the latest lag fix, but it ending up causing a lot of FC's, so I had to revert to stock a few times. I tried to make it work using ext2 and ext3, but it still wasn't stable enough. I didn't enjoy the noticeable speed increase, but it wasn't worth it since launcher pro was one of the programs that was FCing.
Anyways, so after I gave up for the 3rd time, I flashed stock using ODIN and it got stuck. I left it there for awhile with no progress and the phone's screen actually just went completely black. I pulled the battery and got the weird cell phone pointing to computer icon. I almost crapped my pants at that point. Very scary moment since I had not seen that screen before.
A quick google search for "bricked Vibrant" led me to this thread and voila! My Vibrant is alive and well again.
Thanks a bunch.
PS: After reflashing stock that many times, I still find it strange that after a fresh flash, I still get a noticeable speed boost by wiping the phone through the privacy setting. Not sure if it's a placebo effect, but I swear it makes a noticeable difference every time.

Glad I could help!
And that's intersting. I'll make sure to wipe the privacy settings. I actually haven't ever wiped them yet.
No go for me.
I used the stupid partition tool in rom manager. partitioned the internal memory not the sd card.
Saw a few others did this, and this worked for them, either right away or after flashing eugene's froyo rom then reverting back, but that rom just hangs on cache.fsd or something like that.
Trying to repartition through odin, with no download files selected right now. It does not appear to be doing anything, just set pit file, then do not turn off target in odin.
Will leave it for a bit, maybe try to flash this again, i think the issue might be deeper for me though. need kernel and everything else.
I did that but my phone locked up and now all I get is a picture of a yellow cation sign next to a little phone and pc pic.. anything I can do at this point or??
tried going into recovery and download mode but it wont let me past that screen.
Thank you so much for this, I received a replacement set 2 days ago and was playing around the the phone and I bricked it, it thought it was frozen so I pulled the batter and it bricked.
I followed your instructions and it works like a charm. What I did find though is that i can't seem you use odin on a mac even with a virtual machine. I had to use an actual PC.

has anyone found a way to unbrick a flashed EU rom then the person flashed to US rom? and then the power wont come on? But the unit does get hot when plugged in?
Im trying to see if i need to jtag this thing. or if anyone had success?
Thanks
ok so my vibrant gave me the cell phone and computer screen i got it back in download mode. started odin to get it back to stock but no matter how long i let odin go nothing happens i got the files that i need for odin out of a thread on these forums and i have followed the directions to the letter and still nothing. any help some one can give would be great. thank you for your time.
How do I know if my phone is being picked up by Odin or being flashed?
did the same thing the clockwork partition wiped my internal memory
F**k!
woop guess im going to tmobile in the a.m. and playin the whole
idk what happened it wont turn on
thank god for the 14 day return policy!
I ran into "brick mode" myself 2 nights ago and could not get my phone into download mode. Any possible combo of volume key up/down and power had no effect. Just that phone exclamation point pc icon slowly blinking in the center of the screen. I did finally get it into download mode but it wasn't using any of the previously mentioned methods, so I'll add one more to the growing list to try. This one worked for me after almost 4 hours of experimenting.
BTW....my phone would never display the battery charging image when powered off and plugged in. Just this same annoying image.
Pull the battery. Put it back in. Hold the just the volume down button. Do not hold the power button. Plug in either a wall charger or USB cable. The cable will power up the phone and voila. I was in the download screen.
I also highly recommend the stock ROM from the thread
"[ROM] OFFICIAL T-Mo Vibrant JFD ODIN/Nandroid Backup Images 7/29/10 (Tested/Working)" In Vibrant > Vibrant Android Development
I tried another ROM found out on the internet and ended up with a shell that crashed and restarted every 60 seconds.
For those running into Odin stuck on a message about verifying the file system, I had no luck when the phone used COM3. I suggest moving your USB cable into different ports on your PC. Each new port will "install" a new instance of the phone using different COM ports. COM5 and COM6 both worked as I was reflashing the day away yesterday.
I recieved my gtab in the mail today. First think I did was put clockwork mod on and then Caulkins rom. Everything rebooted fine but when I tried to log into the market something strange was happening. My number keys (that I was trying to use for my password) were acting as a "back" button. Then it forced closed and will not turn on. When I have it plugged in, it's taking a charge. I don't even know where to start!!!! Any help will be much appreciated!!!

Sounds like initially your touchscreen calibration may have be off. Do you have a microSD card installed? If so, put an empty file called calibration.ini on the root directory of you microSD card. If you don't have a microSD card installed on your gtab, you can try to put an empty calibration.ini file on the /sdcard directory of your gtab device, although I read there has been some mixed success. The biggest thing is that you don't touch the gtab touchscreen during the reboot. Wait until the launcher of your choice is fully available for use.
If it doesn't startup, you may have to wait for the battery to drain. Can you get into ClockWorkMod?
Have youcheld down the power button for like 45 seconds? Are you sure it didn't go into apx mode?
Did you charge it all the way before modding it?
If nothing happens when you hold power for 45 seconds it may be booting into apx mode and that means its time to get comfy with nvflash. Good luck

Same thing happened to me. I was able to boot via nvflash, and it seemed like it restored everything. (But I notice that nothing comes out of the upper menu windows, where it previously shows news or weather kinda stuff), But when it powers off, I cant power on anymore. Any help out there ? I can only power it On when I use nvflash.
Mantara,
I don't think you meant it the way you said it.
Holding down the power button for 45 second by itself will not activate APX mode.
It may turn off the tablet permanently. (And if the tab malfunctions APX mode might
actually appear).
But to activate APX mode you have to hold down power and volume - until you get the "birds" and eventually a black screen. I know from other posts you know that, but
wanted make sure the new folks understand.

Thanks for clarification brother. I was checking the forum while battaling some serious insomnia and even with a pre post readthrough it made sense in my head.
Wanted mainly to know if battery got charged all the way. Lots of stories of really odd issues commingle from modding with low batteries. One of those issues being it randomly booting onto apx.
Like I said, my original post made sense in my sleep addled brain XD
Thanks for turning my insomniatic forum vomit into something potentially constructive

Hello,
I was wandering if my tablet is hosed or not because of the following information after I tried to install early preview
of ICS and I have opened it. I have taken to a repair shop but they would touch because 'they think it is a software issue.' Software would not cause the followine:
A:My Tablet will not turn on.
B:My Tablet is not seen by my pc(I have tried every plug)
C:Master reset button does not do anything
D:When I try to run APX, it says that there are no usb connected.
E:When I either try to charge with/without dock, it will charge for about 30mins max then the charge light will shut off.
F:Windows does not recognize my tablet when connected to my PC.

Perhaps you have been here but this site helped me out many times.
http://viewsonic-gtablet-for-dummies.webs.com/
See this post.
I would use this thread if my tablet could actually turn on. I have tried to see if it will show up in APX mode.
Have you checked to see if you are actually just in APX mode?
There won't be a thing on the tablet screen, will look like it's off (no color change of the black "off" getting lighter from being "on", etc..).
If you were able to nvflash before, have you tried nvflashing again?
Just as a test, plug the tablet up to your PC (that you have used nvflash on before....so we know your USB config is valid for the Gtablet), go ahead and hold the volume - down and then press power for just a second. Now try to nvflash the device.
My tablet was stuck in an APX boot only process for a LONG time (about 9 months). I could nvflash it with different ROMS to test, just couldn't power it off because once I did....it appeared to never come on again. Reset button did nothing, Power button did nothing, screen was just "off" black period. I could still nvflash....

You should go through those links a bit more carefully. Watch that youtube video for a start.
I got home after school and tried all suggestions and I still could not get it into apx mode. I watched the youtube video but I could not get my computer to recognize it like it does in the video.
If you've checked your USB cable
and done the HW reset procedures in the posts correctly
and also tried the nvflash on Linux
and if the tablet still doesn't go into APX mode,
then you might have truly bricked your gtab.
They say it is unbrickable--but, really, it is not.
You got an SOD. Fosser warned people that tried the ICS alpha about this. The only thing you can do is unscrew the back and press the reset button on the mainboard. If that don't work... sorry you killed your Gtab.
Thanks for the help
Well,
It does look like I really did brick my tablet because I have TRIED everything. I knew what I was getting myself into when I flashed it.

You could try installing Ubuntu on a spare computer, and see if Ubuntu detects your gtab. Ubuntu does not need apx drivers. All you have to do is plug in USB open a terminal and type lsusb and hit enter. You will need to attempt to put your tablet into apx mode with power and volume down first. Doing it through Ubuntu will eliminate the possibility of a driver error.

I already had similar situation. Used power consuming USB HDD to train my battery.
After 24h - my G-tab is back
Hello all I was hoping I could receive some assistance regarding my Nook Tablet. Yesterday I tried to upload CM7 onto it and in my haste I may have bricked it. I first put CWM on my sd card and booted into that and then in turn tried to put CM7 onto my Nook. I hit install CM7 in CWM and after it installed the screen when black yet still had a glow indicating it was on. I proceeded to let it just sit all night and in the morning it was dead. Now the problem has come that it doesn't seem to want to turn on. I've charged it all day and it still says that it doesn't have enough battery to turn on. I've searched the fourms on how to do a factory reset and they all seem to be good options. The problem I'm having though is that I can't even get my Nook to turn on to even try these options. I've even done hold the power button and N button method but again it just tells me it needs to charge more. Any help would be appreciated. Apologize if forgoing any fourm rules this is my first post and kinda worried about my Nook. Thanks again.
Make sure it's being charged by the official Nook AC adapter.
It is in fact being charged by the Nook charger. The thing is I'd love to try these factory resets I just can't seem to get past nook isn't charged.
with the usb cable plugged into the pc, it will ( should ) get a trickle charge.
.
sorry if you know this ( gotcha ) already. power is a 'software/logic' button. sometimes it'll look like its off when ( in fact ) it is "not" off. . i think you can see the display back light glowing if you look at it with a sharp angle. if you see a glow its hung in a false off...
I have gotten it to in fact turn on now, but it still hangs at the black glow screen after seeing read forever.
Well nevermind it ended up turning off again and I've come full circle with it.
Well I have ended up fixing it by doing the factory reset until it worked! Sorry for making a some what pointless thread was just a very worried nook owner. And again thanks for the insight on everything.
Glad you fix it,please add SOLVED tag to the OP title

So my Prime is completely stock from an OS standpoint. Not rooted, just a handful of apps. I got the JB firmware notification this morning and I went ahead and kicked it off. Things seemed fine and the android with the blue progress bar popped up after a reboot. I left it alone and when I came back it was sitting on the ASUS boot screen. It has been on that boot screen ever since. I let it sit that way for over an hour and finally tried to power it off. I can power it off but it automatically tries to restart and gets stuck on the ASUS screen again. Tried holding the volume button down during power cycle and no luck. Anyone have any ideas?
Thanks

adb and fastboot are different things.
adb you will be able to use while in CWM and fastboot you can use while in fastboot.
You need to be able to push a rom onto your device thru adb while in cwm.
There could be a few things wrong. It could be a faulty cable or it could be that your usb ports on the computer don't like it.
Have you tried using usb ports on the back of your computer and seeing if anything shows up in device manager when you are in cwm?
If not can you try it on another computers usb ports and see if anything shows up in device manager when you are in cwm?
Please come back with a bit more information when you have tried this. Once you can see the device in device manager you should be able to install the naked drivers and I can help you from there.
edit.. can you please also tell me what happens when you just try to let it boot.. where does it get stuck, what is on the screen?

Thanks for the response. vol down and power don't do me any good. It won't let me into the stock recovery mode. I've been down that road before and entered it successfully so I'm pretty certain I'm doing it right. It just loops me back to the ASUS screen.

The only way to do it is to have it powered off. Then hold the volume down button first and while holding it start holding power button also.. Then don't let go of both buttons until it appears.
If that don't work I'm not sure what you have done sorry mate.

I guess I'm looking at an RMA then because it is powered off when I do the vol down + power. Still only get the splash screen. I wouldn't be upset if I was trying to load a custom ROM or something but all I did was let the blasted thing try to install the OTA. Oh well, thanks again for your time.

I think there must be some serious issues with TF201 and JB. I have got into exactly the same position by trying to use Protato's method to update to WW JB - and so have at least 3 others. But if the genuine update is doing this too!!
I'm going to request RMA. My tablet has gone to hell and this is just the seal of approval. Have a feeling I'm Infinity bound now. Good luck to all.
I am definitely going to have to RMA at this point. 3rd for me. Mine started off with the wonderful Serial Number unknown and was then suffering from pretty bad wifi/bluetooth fallout. ASUS has made good by me on both cases so far and I felt pretty good about my Prime but I must say I'm a bit disappointed that I need a 3rd RMA. I'll be happy overall if they get it back to me in good working order in a timely fashion.

How long foes RMA take for you usuallly? I was an idiot before to an opened up my Prime. I didn't mess with it just peaked to assembly if my camera fell out. Think this will matter? Do we have to pay the shipping?
