Installing/Flashing CWM on Rooted 1.4.0 NT w/ Blocked OTA Updates

---

Gents,

I stepped away from the world of the Nook Tablet over the last 5-6 months in order to focus on other Android devices.

Last time I was involved with the NT, I rooted my son's NT with Indirect's 'Full Root (v1.4.0) w/ Blocked OTAs w/ ZergRush exploit' Thread.

From what it seems, there have been a few changes, including obtaining root access for NT's that have 1.4.1+ through the SDCard boot method.

Quick question:

I want to load a custom recovery on my son's NT, such as Xionia or CWM. The root via SDCard method includes this as part of the overall root method.

Is there a preferred way that I can install/flash custom recovery on my son's NT, knowing that I have a rooted 1.4.0 NT Blocked OTA updates?

Just curious.

Thank you,

BJ.

You seem like you know what you're doing, so go here right now and use Indirect's great app to flash CWM recovery internally.

You are correct that a LOT has changed. It is super easy to do almost anything you want with the NT. I have a full series of articles (with associated videos) on the NT. Start the series here: http://raywaldo.com/2012/05/comparis...et-nook-color/

Ray,

Thank you! I will check those articles out right now!

just wondering if anyone has tried this coming off 16gb NT on 1.4.3? i was bricked but fixed so i am unrooed stock. thinking that i maybe should try getting back to an earlier version if there was nothing signifigant that came along with 1.4.3.

OTA Block not working

I had my 16gb NT rooted but had to unroot when I changed my email password, a B&N quirk. Anyway, I re-rooted - several times - but I can't get the OTA blocker to work now. It still shows 1.4.0. Anyone have any ideas. All would be appreciated.

Try this. It should return your nook to stock and allow you to start over. http://raywaldo.com/2012/06/how-to-u...t-8gb-or-16gb/
