[Q] Can't get Market Place or apps on Nook Color CM7 Nightly SD Card - General Questions and Answers

I'm running CM7 Nightly on an SD card for NC w/no problems. Its great; blue tooth even works!!! My problems is that I can't seem to get apps or the Marketplace on it. I followed the instructions on this link: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1000957
What could I possibly be doing wrong? I put the SD card in my computer and then I do a regular file transfer of the correct gapps...zip file to the first partion titled boot. I'm not seeing any other partions but there are other files there. Do I have to unzip and copy contents to the boot partition? When I boot up again holding the n button and power button until the bootloader msg appears for about 2 seconds; it just boots up like normal. I don't see anything special saying its booting in recovery mode. Then I look and there isn't any apps or marketplace icon.
Plz help because I really like CM7 and would like to keep using it...maybe even flashing it on internal. Thanks so much!

can't get clockworkmod to come up

Hi
i stalled clockworkmod as described here but when i try to pull it up with the (volume + and power button) all it does is go into the reboot kernal thing and shows the install box and then boots up to normal screen. Did i miss a step somewhere?
thanks

Did you make sure you did it from actual SD Card? (not internal storage).
I followed the steps as well and got the files suggested. I did not root my device however. I'm running the newest build of the stock TnT UI.
I put the update.zip on the root of my SD Card and then the folder recovery (with command in it) on the SD Card as well. I flashed it using the stock method. It didn't look like it flashed but when I powered down and went through the ropes I boot into CWM.

Sounds like you did not install CW. When you unpack the install, it should look like this:
/sdcard/update.zip
/sdcard/recovery/command
If either of those is not exactly like that, it will not work.
Thanks rothnic,
that was the fix, got it working now
I've got CM, Titanium backup, and Vegan on the SD card ready to go, but when I hit power and volume, see a quick download icon, then nothing.
I feel like an idiot.
----
I went back, cleared the sd card and left the update.zip
and recovery/command.
Still nothing.
try moving to the CM files to the sdcard not the sdcard2 (i tried running it from the external microsd but moving to the internal sdcard seemed to work) also makesure the files on the sdcard are moved to the right place on the sdcard just like:
/sdcard/update.zip
/sdcard/recovery/command
as described from rothnic's post in this thread
I am having the same problem....
I applied the latest update before trying this...
Any Ideas?

E:/Can't Mount SD Card

Okay, So I normally never post in these forums. I am always reading and learning new ways to improve my Cell Phone.
Anyways, Today, I experienced a freaky Force Close. It was for my TWLauncher and no matter how many times I clicked FC, it still kept FCing not allowing me to enter into Debug mode to allow me to get to Recovery or even Odin.
Finally after clicking the Search button quick enough I was able to type in settings and then change to debug mode. I rebooted into Recovery mode and flashed to Default, no root, nothing. I then downloaded [ROM][ODIN] Stock DEODEXED KC1 [Root][Einherjar Dev Team][4.21.2011]-Whitehawkx booted that up and now Im trying to install CWM and {rom}Cwm-GB-2.3.5-Octane-V2.x.
Well first off I noticed something strange when I couldnt push from my adb so I manually went in and moved the file myself with a root file manager and placed the update.zip file and the zip file for the rom i wanted into my root.
I recovered mode, booted into CWM, and now when I try and Back up or update from zip file on sd card and I can't. Its telling me that...
"Unable to Mount Sd card"
or
E:/Can't Mount SD Card
I've tried formating SD Card from Phone and Computer. I've removed everything from SD Card, and still not working! Im soo confused. @[email protected]
I hope someone here can help me with this problem!
Thanks!

Could have something to do witb voodoo being ENABLED before flashing. Not sure though, never happened to me before.

I have the same problem here!
Any suggestions? I even tried SD Formatter 3.1 to format my sd card but no luck...
TheKucho might be onto the issue. Did either of you have the sdcard formatted with the ext4 filesystem? If so, Windows won't be able to format it because it can't read ext4. I don't know about any of the apps in the market but I would think most of them are written for whatever filesystem is native to the platform (which ext4 is not, usually).
If you guys were on ext4, either mount the card via a Linux box & reformat it to FAT or you'll have to load a voodoo enabled kernel on your phone & reformat it that way.
Thanks for Reply Guys
The SD Card wasn't reformatted from the phone ever til last night.
I reformated to FAT32 on my laptop, readded my pictures to the sd card, and then moved it back to my phone...
I've tried multple sd cards, nothing seems to work. Almost as if the cell phone is finding the sd cards when in recovery mode or from the adb... I can take pictures and save them to sd, and I can mount sd to pc from usb coord, but thats it.
Yay
For anyone experiencing this problem, I have solved it thanks to the help of everyone here...
I followed the GB EXT4 Starter and installed octane 2.x-Updated
The steps worked completely, at one point it was bit fuzzy, right after finalizing EXT4 process, my phone began to boot up, load, auto reboot, but not completely, only went to splash screen, made noise, and then opned up again. OVER AND OVER.
I fixed this by battery drop, recovery mode, loading zip from sd, first the Octane, and then Busy Box.
I HAVE MY BABY BACK!

[Q] TF101 Wont Boot after update

I have the TF101 with the b90 serial. Ever since running the latest update my TF wont boot. It sits at the Asus eepc splash screen. It is not rooted running all the stock software. I have tried a number of things and all of them seem to fail.
Things ive tried;
-I have held the power button down for 20seconds a minute etc and it just goes back to the asus splash
-tried to hit the reset button on the side
-held down the power + volume down till white letters. tried the cold boot and the data wipe.
-tried to do hold down power + volume down and hit the volume up to do the RCK recovery and it loads for a quick second then gives me an Android logo with a yellow caution sign.
-going to asus site and taking the firm ware saving it to a microsd card and trying to boot the TF with the card in. no luck there either (unless i was doing it wrong)
Does anyone know a fix so i can get this thing working? Any help is appreciated. This is my aunts tablet so im new to the android OS.
Did you place the firmware in the root of the SD card and booted into recovery (power+vol-, vol+)?
yea i unzipped the file into the root of a sd card and did the power + vol - then volume+ when u see white writing and i just get the android olog with a loading bar for about 1 second then goes to a android with a yellow caution logo and sit there.
Ive never flashed a ROM on the TF using the stock recovery, so I cant really be sure if this is correct but...
On my Novo7Basic, you have to place the .zip file (not extracted) in the root of the SD card, and name it update.zip (I know the TF needs to be named something else, but I dont know what).
So you could try just placing the .zip file in the root of the SD card.
Just to make sure the sd card has to be formatted FAT32? I downloaded the us firmware off ASUS site and I unzip the original file u get off their site and inside there is another zip file i save that zip file onto the root of the SD card.
this is quite frustrating havent been able to use this thing for over a week. id be willing to root it or put cwm on it to reflash it but im not sure if i can do any of that without being able to get into the OS.
Did you rename the zip to EP101_SDUPDATE.zip ?

[Q] PLEASE HELP ME!!!! Nook HD Plus bootable sd not working!

Hello,
I'm a n00b here, don't hate. So basically, I want to make a bootable SD card for my Nook Hd Plus.
I followed the steps on http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=36421852#post36421852 (but instead I used http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2389813 and the latest zip from that site so I could get Android 4.3)
So I burned cwm 7.1 on the sd, booted the Nook up, installed the latest zip file from http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2389813 (This zip I put on the Nook Internal storage, like the steps said)
I click Reboot system, and it goes straight back into cwm.
I fully turned off the device, took card out, THEN booted it up again, but this time it showed the first black Nook screen for about 2 seconds, then showed the cwm boot up screen, the the cynagenmod boot up sequence pops up (THIS WASD WITH THE CARD OUT!)
From cwm, I can see that the internal storage was NOT formatted (thankfully), but no matter what, i can't seem to get it to boot up from ANYTHING (stock rom or sd).
Plugging it into my Windows PC, nothing showes up (but it does recognize it, just no way to view the files inside the internal storage)
PLEASE HELP ME OUT ASAP, I really hope I did not brick my device

Problems with SlimKat

Hello, i'm writing this hoping that you can help me. I have installed Slim-4.4.3 but have some problem:
Is that i don't have a SD card and can't figure out how to change de default path of camera (i have installed several the last one is Cymera wich i could set to internal but not a specific path ans syas "Storage is full" but i have 5 gb of free space) to the internal storage, and no, buying a SD is not a good option in this country.
I have used Slim_minimal_gapps.4.4.3.build.5.8-60 and Slim-edison-4.4.3.build.5.8-UNOFFICIAL-20140610-1535
and put it in System 1

Try JB+ Camera , there's an storagepath option
I realllllly mess up this time, well i enter Recovery mode (with bmm) and format everything (i was crazy) then in only boot till the 4 options(pressing volume keys + power button Normal boot,Revocery,AP fastboot and BosstTool) and someone burrow me an SD to flash it, but it turns out that give me the error of signature(in update from external, that is in recovery mode) then i learn that i have to use Rsd lite, i download everything, but the phone goes off so i put it to wall charge and i woke and is like nothig (the moto logo goes and keep in that way) i try to conect it to the pc and it shut down, also chargin from pc gives the white led, after 15min the logo appear, and goes black screen, but when i press the power+volume it shut down and it goes only to the white led, should i wait more with pc charging right? im impatient jeje.
It is possible since i format everything the part of charging also i mess it? So that's why it won't charge? If that so what can i do? The only solution i figure it's to find someone with my phone and change battery to flash and see if that works, but again Venezuela it's not a place were it's easy to find solutions, in this case someone with the same model
Thats FXZ rigth?
@KPatrix thanks but before i mess it everything i download an app to view my storage and it turns out that internal storage(something for apps right?) appears not phone storage(i was reading and this is were user files go), so i figure that somehow i was needing to create phone storage and all i could found in google were post related to unistall and that kind of stuff so didn't work to me. In this point i was able to find a solution?

What a mess ...
If it's not convenient for you to get a fully charged battery,can you buy a multi-purpose battery charger in your country? We can buy it everywhere and it's very very cheap!
After that, you can start your steps:
1.flash stock ICS rom
(2.get root
3.install BMM
4.wipe data &cache &DalvikCache &battery status
5.install a Rom zip you like)
You can only do Step1 if you want to use ICS, which is far more stable than unoffical ROMs -few bugs. I think a stable OS is quite necessary for you as your surroundings.
Before you flash, read a guide,follow it strictly.
And, good luck to you!
@KPatrix thanks for that quick response! I use to have stock but i founded lagy and the moved to JB the leaked version and also founded laggy (i guess that was because all the chinesse/motorola blootware) i recover my phone hurray! Again i try with Slimkat and the same result says i have 5gb of free memory but only to apps :S so while i'm writing this i'm downloading liquid-Kit-Kat but i found a video,althought i'm goin to put it in System 1 i'm not planning to add more rom, and starting to think that it needs something more to put it right isn't?
Also forgot to mention the way i have fixed the battery problem was mutilating ans usb cable, and don't come to Venezuela, i've try searching a more easy option to fix and the answers were: "No hay" (There's not) or waaaaaay to expensive
It's again in SlimKat, i've try liquid and still have the same error! Anyone can help to use the internal storage not only apps, i like to save pictures/videos, and it's a problem probably with the roms, so that could be kikat? Please i don't want to use JB or ICS

Glad to see you've solved your other problems.:thumbup:
Unfortunately, this is one that you can't. That data partition that is not the same as having an internal SD card. It only stores apps, app data, etc.
That mean that is not possible to use Internal storage to save images after flashing with a custom rom? Or if i put it in another partition leaving the stock on SYstem 1 will work?
I give up, really, i put SlimKat on System 3 and still can't save images :S, but the main System can (ICS stock). So if there are not posibles solutions that doesn't imply buying something i'm done, thanks anyway for the answers, i will keep visiting this for a posible solution

Maybe your Atrix 2 is different from mine (AT&T) because the internal storage on mine is for apps and app data only. It won't save pictures, music videos, etc to that storage space. An external SD card is required for that.
Probably, mine is not an At&T version and i can use the remaining 4gb or to store apps and music but that only happens in ICS stock, on Slimkat unfortunatley i can't i will leave for a week or so to see if a i can't find a solution.
SOmethin that i forgot to mention on BMM says "unable to mount /int" it has something to do with my problem, then i flash it to stock->root->bmm and stil have the error :S, but it has something to do with that isn't?
Do i need a sd card on my (At&t) Atrix 2 to flash a rom. Im rooted but waiting for a sd card to come in. Can i just flash then insert the card afterwards.

If you have no SD card, where are you going to put the ROM zip that you intend to flash? The AT&T models definitely don't have an internal SD card so, unfortunately, you'll have to wait.

I'm not sure about that error. Try this (if possible both on stock and on custom ROMs) to look for your internal storage. Using a root enabled file explorer, go to the root of your device and look through the folders. There are a few places you're likely to find it. Could be one of the following, among other names.
/sdcard
/mnt/storage/sdcard
/storage/sdcard
/sdcard0
/mnt/storage/sdcard0
/storage/sdcard0
Also if it has both sdcard0 and sdcard1, then those will be your internal and external SD cards. Internal being the "0" and external being the "1". If it shows both then whichever your model is must have an internal SD card, and I will have learned something new. :sly:
I have /sdcard on stock and can access it appear whatssap,downloads,music etc... on the rom nothing appear and they have the iqual permissions.
I have to say that i'm going to debt to buy an SD of 8gb, in the next few weeks (this country is like this unfortunatly) but the doubt is interesting isn't? So thanks anyway!
Will slimkat go on my at&t a2 or do us at&t owners have to stick to certain roms?
