87GT Posted August 9, 2013 Report Share Posted August 9, 2013 Someone gave me a nook color to root and install gingerbread. I figured out how to install cyanogen 7.0.0 on an SD card and it boots fine. I tried to install clockworkmod through rom manager but this didn't work. I read something about the bootloader being locked. There are no gapps installed on cm7 so this is a big deal. I found some app that I can't remember the name of but it is supposed to get around this. I downloaded it off their website and it said it installed CWM but I can't get the damn thing to launch. If I hold down the power button and select reboot into recovery it doesn't launch. If I do the power button + nook button while booting it doesn't launch CWM. Frustrating. I found a guide to install CWM on a 2nd SD card as a boot disk. Well that works. I can boot into CWM with this, then swap sd card with the one that has cyanogen, install gapps, then reboot but it doesn't have the gapps. Any ideas?

thorne Posted August 9, 2013 Report Share Posted August 9, 2013 typically most roms wont come with Gapps you just grab the proper gapps package. How did you install cm7 ? On my note I just use Clock work recovery and install the rom then install gapps.zip and reboot wait 10 minutes and go. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
87GT Posted August 11, 2013 Author Report Share Posted August 11, 2013 Nook color boots from a microsd card. You just need to write an image file Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
