I was asking if there's any way to convert a .zip ROM into a .tar ROM to flash with Odin..
The reason why I'm asking this is because I'm unable to flash any ROM via CWM recovery. I can only flash ROMs via Odin. Please see this for further information to my problem.
I'm particularly fond of the MIUI ROM, but there's no Odin version of that.. and CWM doesn't work for me

Yeah, always ._.
This is the installation instructions from adys miui rom which i usually use...not sure if you do this already but this usually works for me (wipe cache n devlik aswell)
1. Copy Zip to SDCard.k
2. Reboot to Recovery.
3. Wipe data/factory Reset.
4. Wipe /system from Mounts and Storage.
5. Install *your Rom* zip from SDCard.
6. Reboot (First boot may take time due to alot of init.d scripting)

Tried it, converted a kernel .zip file to.tar for Note 2 and it blue-screened Win7 during .tar installation. No damage to PC or phone, but DAYUM!

I don't think direct conversion like that will ever work, just ask the related developer to generate a tar file for you, ask one of the most helpful devs like salesale(NeatRom creator) or the dev of RevoltRom.

Why?
You'd need to write a script that specifies what files get flashed to where & create your own flashable zip. Or you could swap the files from the tar into an existing CWM flashable I guess; not sure if this will work tho, the script may be specific to those particular files & might not work with different ones (I'm not au fait with these scripts, hence not being sure). I personally wouldn't try this tho, just flash the tar in Odin already.
The last sentence says it all

That's easy (well can cause catastrophe if handled without proper knowledge) just use android kitchen.
Edit :Seriously though must be very careful, I used it to deodex JB firmware for my tab 7 plus (it doesn't have any proper developer support so had to do it manually) and I had a plethora of minor bug's popping up, insignificant but annoying nonetheless, quite frankly must be ready to spend hours for proper tweaking and understanding framework to build a good flashable zip, I didn't have the patience nor the time.

Could I make one for you ? Absolutely not.
I don't sit around all day doing nothing just waiting for n00bs to give me stuff to do for them. If you really want to make one, you'll work out how to do it for yourself. Or you won't *shrugs*

[Caveat emptor: adopt/follow this guide at your own risk].
[Important Note: this process is applicable for CM11 builds that still maintains two separate partitions for /data and /media – as in CM10.x and stock ROMs (see http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=48612997#post48612997 for more info). If/when these two partitions get merged in some future CM11 builds (as being contemplated by our NT CM developers – see http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2560827&page=28) this "CM10 to CM11" update process will not be valid for those future builds with merged /data+media partition].
Below is the process that can be used to update your NT EMMC from CM10.x to CM11.
Download the following files to a location in your user content-media storage space on the NT:
the flashable_CWM_6.0.4.5_chrmhoffmann.zip file from https://www.mediafire.com/folder/xjwc1a482a6ll/Nook_Tablet which contains the CWM recovery v0.2 provided by Chris Hoffmann (in the first post of the XDA Official CM11 thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2560827).
the zip file of CM11 ROM build of your choice from http://download.cyanogenmod.org/?device=acclaim (see http://www.cyanogenmod.org/blog/cm-11-m4-post-release-items for considerations in choosing nightlies vs. snapshot/stable builds)
the zip file of the Gapps package corresponding to CM11 – e.g., from http://wiki.cyanogenmod.org/w/Google_Apps
Boot into your current emmc recovery
Select install zip and install flashable CWM recovery zip file (obtained in step 1(a)).
Select reboot to boot into the new emmc recovery (flashed in the preceding step).
Select Wipe data & factory reset.
Select install zip and install CM11 zip file.
Select install zip and install Gapps zip file.
Reboot into the new CM11.
Once the NT boots up, set up the wifi connectivity and your google account info. If you had previously enabled Google backup service on your CM10.x your Google Playstore apps will be auto-downloaded (but their settings will not be auto-restored).
If the NT on occasion boots or reboots into a black screen (in lieu of CM boot animation), then you have encountered one of the "random boot crashes" – more info and potential remedies, see http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=48941796&postcount=94 and http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=48301259#post48301259.
A few additional points worth noting:
Flashing CM11 requires CWM version 6.0.4.5 or later, or TWRP version 2.6.3.0 or later. To create a flashable recovery zip file for TWRP, use an archive file manager such as 7-zip to delete and replace the recovery.img inside the flashable recovery zip file (obtained in step 1(a) above) with your choice of TWRP internal recovery image file from http://techerrata.com/browse/twrp2/acclaim (e.g., openrecovery-twrp-2.6.3.1-acclaim.img). Remember to rename the downloaded TWRP .img file to recovery.img before inserting it into the recovery zip file, and also rename the resulting new recovery zip file to some other name like flashable_TWRP_2.x.y.z.zip to avoid future mix-up.
Installing CM11 ROM and Gapps will override your NT's CM10.x boot, recovery, ROM, and Apps, so make sure that you backup all this stuff using recovery backup function, for easy in reverting to CM10.x if desired. See my post at http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=48612997#post48612997 for more "Info and Tips for Mitigating Risks in Rooting and Flashing Custom-ROM".
I would advise against using any other functions of the recovery without first carefully researching to understand what they really do.

A day before i moved from CM 10 to CM 11 , with the help of mikeataol
Anyway Thanks a lot for this guide.
Few questions
* Any good custom kernel ? I tried Bexus but its giving me "android.phone" stopped responding error and wont allow me to do anything , it just keeps on coming even after pressing "OK"
* What happend to multi touch feature ? any ROM , way to enable it ?
* Is it only me or others too feel that the screen lags a lot wrt to touch input ? Its more evident during scrolling or reaading pdf. Also anyway to resolve it ? I desperately need a fix for this.
* I used gapps from here : http://wiki.cyanogenmod.org/w/Google_Apps
CM 11 20140105 , is it fine or i should use PA Gapps only ?

The Gapps KK package you installed is fine, the PA package just has a few more apps (such as Maps and YouTube, etc. -- all of which you can get from the Google Playstore) and is more frequently updated (-> less likelihood/need for updates for the apps in the package immediately after first installation).

Thanks , I heard that multitouch has bug which makes tablet slow at <50% battery , is it so ? also does that app work on cm 11?
Yes , i did wipe everything and installed CM 11 , still the screen is stuttering. very annoying. Is there a way to increase the fps ? or see if GPU drivers are working properly ?
The default Gapps are giving error when flashed with Bexus kernel
---------- Post added at 08:12 AM ---------- Previous post was at 07:32 AM ----------
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.aatt.fpsm&hl=en
Used this app and saw that fps varies and it varies like from 7 - 50 during reading pdf.
On slow scrolling of pdf , it only shows 11 or so fps , which is why i think shows the stuttering effect
Used the same app on my GS3 to see the difference and it holds its FPS at 60+ and not dropping below 50.
I think if i can make this tablet to render everything at 30+ fps i might not feel this stuttering effect.
https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/15488514/nooktablet.mp4
here is the video i tried to take regarding the screen lag.
its all real time , there is no , afaik any camera lag ( taken with sg3) , its pretty much how it looks . Also i have shown the FPS . You can see when i scroll slowly , the FPS drops to 20 or so making it jerky. if i do it fast , it reaches 50+ but not stable and not very responsive to my touch feedback either.

You need a newer version of CWM 6.0.[1-3].x to install CM10.x.

Hi,
I did exactly like that. I tried to update CWM to 6.0.45 and the current CWM reported that the zip file of CWM 6.0.45 is BAD

For CM10.x you need 6.0.[1-3].x (e.g., 6.0.2.8).
6.0.4.5 and later versions are for CM11 only.
If you follow the SD-based CWM recovery method in the referenced post the CWM recovery you'd be using (to flash the new CWM, ROM, Gapps) is provided by the file recovery.img (downloaded and copied to the SD card) rather than your current 5.5.0.4 on emmc. Make sure that you boot the NT off the SD card as prescribed in step #3 (otherwise you will end up booting emmc cyanoboot and CWM).
FYI, i'm pretty sure TWRP 2.7 (official from GooManager/TWRP site) doesn't work. if you click on the console button (square with lines in it, top) it'll say "This kernel doesn't support configuring SELinux" or something like that. i tried wiping stuff and it would just do a soft reboot. i may go file a proper report to TeamWin but i have CWM on there now and i don't particularly feel like reflashing a broken recovery.
TL;DR don't use TWRP
Hello, I'm new and trying to learn so please don't be too harsh. In following the instructions I somehow overwrote the stock rom and now duel boot CM 10.1 and 11. Any clue as in what I have done wrong?

This thread OP is for updating the NT Internal Emmc to CM11 (from CM10.x), i.e., CM11 would be installed internally. If you were still running stock ROM internally, it wold be replaced by CM11.

Yes.
Can't seem to figure this out myself. I have Twrp 2.6.3.0 and it won't let me flash CWM or CM11. Just gives the standard flashing error. Any ideas?
