Hello,
A couple of weeks ago I decided to change my boot animation on my Archos 101. With Super Manager I copied a bootanimation.zip file to the right folder. When I rebooted my Archos, I saw that the boot animation was very slow and that my tablet wasn't booting anymore. I tried to reboot a couple of times, but still it wasn't working.
Then I went into the BIOS and I saw an option to reset my tablet. I chose that option and after that I booted my Archos. The boot animation was still there, but this time it was booting (after a couple of hours). I tried to delete the boot animation, but unfortunately my tablet wasn't rooted anymore. I tried to root it again, but I couldn't get in the BIOS. I've tried dozens of times, but I still cannot enter the BIOS.
Can someone help me with this issue?
Bought 2 16GB Nook tablets last week (one for wife) - used indirects method to boot CWM from SD http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1466583 however got same error as Land Master and a few others where instead of booting CWM the unit booted a factory reset prompt instead. The suggested workaround is to boot while plugged into a computer however this did not work for me. In the end I did get CWM to boot and installed CM7 which is going great on both tablets (I'm in the UK so could not register or use the stock OS).
The workaround for me was, from a failed CWM boot that has gone through a factory reset screen (which is declined) to boot the stock OS,
1 eject SD properly, plug into Mains and reboot then turn off normally (i.e the nook has now been turned off from stock OS without booting from the CWM SD first)
2 re make the SD ( it seems booting into the stock OS with it inserted changed it in some way, no idea how)
3 turn on nook holding n and power button until nook turns - this is standard step
4 insert SD and turn on while still plugged into Mains (nook should have been plugged into Mains from step one)
This worked on both nooks, 1.4.1 out of box with oobe skipped, I swapped the SD after CWM booted for one with CM7, updated from this, wiped data rebooted and have not looked back since.
Hi Guys,
I really hope someone can help me out with this issue. I searched the forum and the internet but did not find any solutions.
My friend successfully rooted the Nook Tablet yesterday using a method that did not require an SD card. Today I was trying to install CM9 with ICS so I downloaded Nook Recovery Flasher.apk and flashed cwm. When I restarted my device got stuck into autorestarting loop. It shows the gray "n", which quickly followed by the clockwork recovery loading splash screen (the picture of the cardboard box). The device then shuts down and starts the cycle over.
I've tried holding the power and n button method but that doesn't work. I've also tried creating a bootable sd card but the device won't pick that up either.
I would appreciate any suggestions!
I've ended up bricking my 8GB NT a similar way. Ended up writing over my mmcblk partition with something I wasn't supposed to. Now stuck in a reboot loop, can't do adb, my phone isn't playing nice enough to where I can make a recovery SD.
BTW OP, from what I've read CM9 is only for 16GBs and will brick 8GBs.
Same thing happened to me a while back. I was able to create a bootable CWM sd card. From there you should be able to restore. If not, use the Ubuntu recovery.
Short answer: You're going to have to create a bootable SD card.
My daughter has a Nook that one day the volume stopped working. We tried to reboot it and it would only boot to the white Nook by B&N screen. This is a nook table. I got the recovery 1.4.2, formatted the SD card, then burned the image to the SD card. Went through all steps and then comes back the white screen again and wont go past there. Any help please.
Hey I recently installed the new boot logo xml at http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2340961 thru rsd lite last night....my phone was on dual boot, defaulted to rom-slot 2....but after i installed the xml, i cannot get the second slot to work.....at startup, the logo comes i choose 2nd slot to boot on BMM, and it just gets stuck on the black screen after that. However, the slot 1 boots properly. I have no backups, my only option is to get the 2nd slot working somehow.

Click to expand...
Click to collapse
K, i recreated the slot & installed the ROM all over again...that helped.
