Another sad day with a Nook Tablet being bricked. I haven't been on here in a while since I had thought my NT died out on me, I've already bought a dell venue 8 and everything but today I was curious to see if I could get my little nook up and running again and I did. Turned out the battery connector had came loose and all I had to do is push it back in and now it works just fine. Although it is running up with lit screen and all, I do seem to have a problem with it getting to turn on completely. It's turning on then clearing data and doing system factory restore but around 80-90% of the way it's done, it shuts off. I know for a fact it's not the battery giving out because I've let it sit through Adam Outlers Ubuntu restore for well over 5 minutes. I've tried many things being reparting it and using system images to push to sd card and let it flash itself and no luck. I've yet to try a sd cwm (backup restore) or a bootable cm10 sd card. I just want to be able to run stock with no problems and i'd be fine. I'd appreciate any help and I hope all of you have a great day!
Edit: I've also tried flashing Roms, no luck there either.
I have been able to get CM10 Running with touchscreen working and all. I can confirm my tablet is on stock firmware for touchscreen. The recovery flasher won't work. The recovery is never replaced. I've tried many restoration files and none have worked as of right now. If anyone has any advice, it'd be nice. This is very time consuming and I would like to dev for the Nook Community again but what good am I with no tablet ;D .
bump...sigh
Sounds like you just need to follow the threads to make a bootable micro sdcard, unlock and root it (which gives you custom recovery), update to the recovery that works for the android version you want to develop for and enjoy it.

I am no expert but I assume you have rooted it? If not then could that be why it isn't accepting the recovery? For kicks I would root via SD then see if the recovery works? Also how are you doing the recovery? Internal install or CMW via SD? If you are doing CMW via internal, I would try the SD external version.
Also if it tried to restore the stock and failed, it might have done enough to unroot it which could (maybe) be causing your issue?
Personally I have the stock ROM (4.3) rooted as I like this method the best as well (gives me the best of both worlds and suits my needs currently)
I haven't been able to get my links to work but I have a solution.

Thank you, I'll test now and report back. I've bricked this thing so many times lmao.
Edit: no go, the drivers don't like to reason with me. (Win 8.1 might be reason)
Did u try going into the BN website and download them from there. It took me a while to do it from Win7. I kept connecting the nook and it finally took it. Don't give up bro.

I went to plug in my phone to my USB cable connected to my desktop, and and I noticed that my Note wasn't being recognized by my desktop, and but was still charging. Long story short, I deducted that it was an issue with the phone's hardware (tried different computers, cables, and ROMs). I have the $10/month warrantee from ATT, but just assumed that I could trust take it in because it was rooted and on a custom ROM. Is there a way for me to flash back to stock and unroot the phone without Odin or any other desktop utility, so that I can take it in?

I ran through the forums and didn't see a cwm flashable stock rom. So you may be out of luck on that one.
If you do find a stock rom you can flash though, you could potentially use this over wifi adb.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=23499670&postcount=133
That'll remove CWM. Best bet might be to say you lost it and pay the $199 deductible. I had to do that once - I'm using the old phone as my mp3 player.
Are we sure this isn't a driver issue? I know its supposed to auto detect but it might he worth trying to install the drivers yourself manually and try again.

I tired reinstalling the drivers and Kies on two different computers. I read somewhere just now that the issue was most like an issue with one of the wire strip on the USB dock part being messed up.

What about copying the original files onto a microsd from your computer and flashing from that?
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I717 using xda premium
Well that leaves me in a pretty bad spot I guess. I suppose my only options are to take it in to the ATT store and hope the guy can exchange it right then and not notice or care, and try to find someone who will sell me a single USB replacement part (looked everywhere though and only saw bulk dealers), and or just continue using it and never switch ROMs I guess

I didn't see a stock rom for him to do that with.
You can use the mobile Odin when you find a stock rom.
You can get a stock backup from someone who has stock rom and CWM and will reset to factory and make a backup and send it to you.
The at&t person won't check to see if you have CWM.

If the OP wants to do that, I'll be willing to get a backup for him. I'm still on the stock Gingerbread system with root/CWM. I'm about to install another rom over the next couple days, so just before hand I can get a backup.

That would be amazing. With that backup, I could just flash it, but and essentially be back to stock? Also, I how does Odin Mobile work? Will that unroot and flash me back to stock or is it just a way to flash like CWM without having to go into recovery?

I'm going to be spending the afternoon/early evening with the wife, so when I get home I'll get a backup for you.
And yes, you'd be back to stock. Make a backup of everything you have first though.
It just downloaded the mobile Odin, and and it said something about my device not being compatible, and that it could take up to 30 to generate some file that might make it compatible. Has anyone else used this on their Note before?

I used it, but I don't remember which phone.
So you will have a nandroid stock backup file soon. To flash that, you need CWM recovery. Do you have that?
I'm creating the backup right now..
I might find a server that can be used for downloading.. that way we at least have a completely stock cwm backup.
Good idea. Maybe Electron or another developer could host it for everyone's availability.
gagejbond, do you have PM's enabled? I'm going to send you a PM in a few with the link for the download. I'm testing the restore on my phone right now..

I just wanted to say THANK YOU! I stumbled across this thread, became intrigued by the idea a cwm flashable stock backup might get posted (would like to have one again after i accidentally deleted mine), but really stayed and read the whole thread because it was so great to watch you/gage/the rest of the thread interact and ACTUALLY help one another on this forum! No flaming, no bashing/bickering etc. Doesn't seem to happen enough in my opinion. Great work again people.

Friend has a Tab 10.1 running stock 4.0.4.
After an indeterminate period of time it randomly reboots back to what appears to be a former saved state, so you basically can't do anything with it. If you remove or update apps, or change settings each reboot will restore the previous settings and the apps you deleted. When doing a factory data reset via the OS nothing changes, it still reboots right back into aforementioned saved state.
After getting into the recovery menu with the volume down+power button and formatting the data and cache, it reboots and again into the same saved state.
What's actually causing this? What can be done to just restore it to its original factory state? Is it malware (Norton couldn't detect any)?
Could it be corrupted internal memory? (Ie hardware?)
OK this is really weird now.
I flashed CW Recovery via ODIN and the recovery mode remained as stock Android System Recovery <3e>.
When I go to access 'apply update from exernal storage' there is no path.
Factory reset still has no impact.
This thing's messed up.
Sounds eerily familiar to the cricket huawei mercury. Essentially, cricket sent an OTA muve music that bricked the device and made the system completely unwriteable...

Thanks so much for the reply. Will definitely look intp that.
One other thing I forgot to mention. It wont boot when connected via usb to my laptop. I can connect via usb after ive booted. Also when factory resetting there doesnt appear to be any delay into the reboot process.
Are there any diagnostics I can run perhaps via adb to see whats up?
When I was trying to get that Mercury working what I had to do, never did get it working mind you but, after all the basic Windows options I then decided to got the linux nautilus route... had to download Virtual Box with an out-of-date ubuntu, set up the system, usb, shared paths etc. Then after hours of troubleshooting finally was able to get my phone to read on the virtual machine in the right mode where terminal picked up the device. Tried to then push Superuser busybox and recovery.img (cwm)... files were picked up on the phone after booting but no root was obtained and like your situation custom recovery wasnt installed over the stock recovery. this is when I gave up
Sent from my SGH-T889 using xda app-developers app
No good. Just could not fix it.
Flashed new roms, old roms, tried to deliberately break it with re-partition on Odin (with no PIT file specified), but NOTHING changed, constantly:
a) fails to boot under charge
b) reboots randomly
c) fails to install apps
d) reboots to a fixed state, where apps and settings remain fixed in stone.
Have to assume that the internal memory is f**cked as the recovery mode cannot access with the message "unkown volume for path /sdcard".
Due to every reboot resulting in a reversion to the aforementioned fix state I can't flash CWM Recovery, and I can't root it (so cannot gain access to system folders even via adb shell). Have to assume that if there is a fix for this it would involve a hardware hack of some description.
Hope this helps anyone else in the future.
Hi All,
Let me preface by saying I'm appreciative of all the info and knowledge you guys so generously impart to N00Bs like myself. Never the less, I'm at wits end with this device and am ready to chuck it against something hard.
The Problem
After getting a few minor glitchy things with stock 2.2, I decided to revert to 2.1 using odin and try my hand at using a custom ROM. I tried CM10, and had a miserable time flashing it and had to unbrick the thing with odin, which of course I downloaded from the forum, followed all intstructions, etc.
Now the problem I'm having has to do with updating through Kies, which I'm resolved to do because flashing anything custom never seems to work out for me. When I've plugged in the phone and the drivers automatically load, I switch it into kies mode but the kies software on my computer will not recognize it. (windows 7 64). The phone screen will switch to a picture of a usb jack and say initializing, but it never says its connected. It will flash briefly to the home screen before going back to the initializing screen repeatedly.
Other Symptoms
-Rooting with the update.zip method isn't working either. No SU in the app drawer.
-Hard to get into download mode, only works if i press the 2 buttons with the battery removed then connecting usb cable.
Again, I'm very grateful for any assistance that can be offered.

DO NOT USE KIES it is notorious for hard bricking phones. I to had trouble with update.zip but then I found a correct one and it worked fine.

Thanks for the advice.
Is there a version and/or method you would recommend for a noob? Additionally, I tried your update file a couple of times and still no luck. Could that have anything to do with CWR? I had to install an old version of ROM manager earlier when I was rooted because 2.1 isn't supported anymore.

You certainly want to avoid kies, unless you want to totally brick your device.
As for obtaining root, I was partial to z4root back in my vibrant days

It works well, although it occasionally needs a second or third attempt if the first fails.

Hello all,
I will confess that I am an absolute noob. I have had my Sprint Galaxy Note 3 since November last year. I finally decided to go ahead and root my phone so that I could use the tether feature. I also like the idea of having control of my own device. I have been reading and reading, and reading on the forum and referencing information from a copy of the Android Hacker's Toolkit by Mr. Jason Tyler and Will Verduzco.. and I'm confused. The information is great however the vast majority of it is over my head.
I have used Chainfire's method for rooting my phone and have installed TWRP for the recovery, and have made a back-up. I have tried installing and using WiFi Tether by TopAppLoft and several other applications from Google Play. I am unable to get the wireless router to work.
What could I try in order to be able to use the WiFi router without having to pay the extra $ to Sprint?
Thank you in advance for any information anyone can provide

Thank you sir! I took a peek and the Odexed Blue ROM looks like a pretty cool ROM. Once I flash the ROM if I want to go back to what I originally had I can just use the Reboot Recovery command through Goomanager? I created a nandroid back-up file through Goomanager of the current configuration on my phone.
It will be a few days before I can get back home and flash a ROM but thanks again and I will let you know how it goes. :good:

I honestly only used goomanager a few times and never made a backup with it. I use twrp for backups and flashing as I believe most others in this forum do as well. I would consider making a backup through recovery unless someone can tell you otherwise. All the roms should have the 4 in 1 power menu and you can access recovery through there. The two easiest ways to go back if you were unhappy with a rom would be to restore a backup through recovery or Odin back to stock. However I think you will be very happy with strongsteve and his odex blue rom. I have used his rom since he released it and it really is flawless and very appealing to the eye. Good luck. Let us know if you need help.

Sir,
I selected Bonsai_BETA_v0.0.5 - 01.14.2014 as my new ROM to flash as it lists the native hotspot mod as one of the things it has included. I was unable to figure out how to install OdexBlue through Odin version 1.85 (this was Chainfire's autoroot application) and I was unable to locate OdexBlue through Goomanager. I made sure to do a nandroid back up and did a complete wipe as I installed Bonsai through Goomanager. I successfully flashed it however I do not know how to get the Native Hotspot feature to work without it telling me to "Call Sprint Customer Service" to activate it. Not sure what I should try at this point. Perhaps try another ROM or seek out the Native Hotspot mod from Mr. Micmars?
If you want odex blue download it from the rom thread to your PC then put it on your sd card. For some reason my phone will not download the odex blue roms. No need to use goomanager to download roms, you will find the download link in the original post where you find the rom description. Once it is on your sd card reboot to recovery, make a backup in recovery, wipe system, data, cache, and dalvic cache. Now from the main menu of recovery go to install, find the rom and install it. Reboot and it should work fine. These are the basic instructions for most roms but always read the developers instructions as some are slightly different. I'm guessing you may not have wiped system, data, and cache which may not allow you to use the hotspot mod. Report back with your results.

Should, by flashing the mj4 tar, it should clean up the phone, after you install the mj4, go back into dl mode, flash the cf root, the flash recovery and should take care of you.. Pretty quick process

At the same time, when you go back stock, you might just want to go to KK, MJ is making a mini rom for it as well.

Yeah I was thinking about doing that anyway, but I have to update my bootloader. That I have never done. All of this odin stuff is new to me, I've had tons of nexus devices and htc's so this is all new to me lol.

I hear ya, I was always an HTC guy until this, different learning curve but same concept, honestly though, Samsung is much easier.. Just look through the note 3 forum, read read read and then if you can't figure out or understand, then ask, most people will offer up help pretty quick..

I was actually just reading the steps in this thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2658315
Guess this is the same results, just with a different process
Yep, most people don't use mobile Odin though but it does work

Well thank you for all the help, I was hoping for a easier fix than doing all of the odin stuff again but if it is the only way, oh well lol.

Odin is as painless as it gets. Everything is automated.
You'll love it.
The One-click packages are even easier, some would aver.

So I was using the Minin3 Maximus 5.6 rom for quite a while now. But I was wanting to try out some aosp roms so I made a backup and installed Carbon rom nightly build. Used it for a few days but I have actually got really adjusted to touchwiz. Thus I wiped everything, installed the backup, now my internal storage is just not responding. Everything works just fine. However I can not download any images, save videos from youtube, basically anything that will save to internal storage. I have already tried going to twrp and rewiping everything, tried fixing permissions, everything I can think of. This happened once before and I had to completely wiped the whole phone and external sd card to get it to work. Really trying not to do that again. Any help is much appreciated.
