[Q] Stuck after using ROM Mgr to CM7, Dummy Guide not working

---

Hey there. I could really use some help. I rooted my nook color 1.1 a while back with no issues and finally decided to take another step. I added Rom Manager from the market. Did a backup and then after adding cm 7.02 encore to my class 10 16gb card, I followed the Rom Mgr directions to attempt an upgrade. Device is now stuck.

I have tried putting the various .zip files listed in the "Dummies Guide to fixing My Nook Won't Boot."

I have tried using various sized (128 mb, 4gb, 8gb) Clockwork recovery Images (that I write to my card via winimage) along with nook-complete-restore-1.0.1.zip adn also then with repartition-boot-with-stock.zip that i copy and paste onto the card that has the recovery images.

All attempts seem to have the same result:

With the uSD card out: I get "Touch the Future of Reading" then "android_" then the android robot splash screen where it hangs.

With the card in it just sits at a black screen.

I ahve also tried connecting with adb. My nook shows up as a usb device but i can't get a serial number from "Adb devices."

Any idea on how to get this back to something usable?

I really appreciate any help.

You need to boot with your recovery card out otherwise you will just keep rebooting to recovery. Also how long did you wait at the android splash screen? First boot can take a while as the Nook is building cache/dalvik. I believe mine took nearly 10 minutes to boot the first time. Have you tried the 8 failed boot reset yet?

I think i had done well more than 8 without seeing anything happen, but maybe not. This time i tried holding the power, the n, and the volume+, buttons and doing that twice in a row all of a sudden brought me into the recovery menu.

All is well now.
