I install CWM and CM 10.1 on native emmc as verygreen's instruction here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2263553
My fault is that i formatted /emmc , /bootdata, /factory partition and now it just boot to CWM only, even i try to instal CM 10.1 many times. Can someone help me out of this? Thank you so much.
You messed up. Formatting /rom and /factory bricked your device. It needs those there to be able to boot normally. I'm not sure if it can be repaired. Ordinarily it can repair itself with stock recovery, but you replaced stock recovery with CWM and it needs /factory to to it.

I think you are hosed.

You might be able to boot to CM on SD someday, but not without significant manual repair first.

Try this link:


and flash it with CWM. It will put stock recovery back on emmc, but without /factory, it still cannot repair itself without more work.

No, you might be able to still boot on emmc.

But you need to PM me with your serial number so I can make you a repair zip to flash. Don't flash that stock recovery yet. Try my zip first.

Edit: It is after 11pm here now so if you PM me with the serial number, I will send you a link in the morning.

I just sent you a Private Message (PM) with a link for a customized repair zip. Flash that. Then try rebooting, it should boot to CM10.1 unless you wiped it out too. If you did, reflash the CM10.1 zip too.

And go to verygreen's thread and flash his newest emmc CWM (v2). It removes the ability to format /rom and /factory.

You do not have the same issue as the prior user since you did not format /rom and /factory.

You tried to restore a stock backup you had made prior to formatting those partitions? That should have fixed it.

Try flashing my plain 2.1.0 stock zip linked in my HD/HD+ CWM thread linked in my signature.

I had no luck, as my step is:
- Put your file, CM10.1 emmc and gapps to sdcard, and insert to nook hd+ then power on, after it boot to cwm, i try to mount sdcard and install your file 2 times
- After install, i install again CM10.1 emmc of verygreen and gapps to, then reboot, it still go to CWM.
Any solutions leapinlar? Thank you very much

You have not even downloaded my file, how could you have flashed it? Look in Private Messages.

Yes! I've downloaded already! and put it in my sdcard! from link you gave me in pm
What is the title of the file you downloaded? And did it flash successfully?

Edit: I got your PM. That is the right file. Did it flash successfully? And you are taking out the SD when you boot, right?

Edit2: ok, lets use the forum now rather than PM. Flash that first zip that puts stock recovery back on and boot without any SD in.

congraturation ndttung8487 . but my nook still can't boot

I also install CWM emmc and CM 10.1 on native emmc after wipe date.....etc so nook unstable.therefore I formatted every single partitions(ex: bootdata.....emmc) and reflashing cm 10.1 on emmc.and cwm emmc. I had saw boot as ndttung8487 situation once but I did more work....(can't remember) maybe I flashed 2.0.0 stock.zip by sdcard. and maybe I removed emmc recovery. so my nook condition is differrent from ndttung8487.

I sent PM to you again. please read and please save nook

----------------------------------------------------------

Explain more what you wiped, and how it behaves when booting.
