Pardon for the long post...but i need help fixing my Nook Color. Made this account just to post.
Ok, I am having some major issues with rooting my nook color. I most likely have screwed up almost everything possible. I have been at this for weeks, and I finally decided I needed to ask for help.
First: About a week ago I decided to root my nook color. Following the nookdev's tutorial, everything worked out fine. I wrote the sd card easily, no problems booting, etc.
For one reason or another (I believe it was while attempting to flash some sort of rom), the nook began to go into a boot loop, where it wouldnt go past the "Touch the Future..." screen. At this time, clockwork recovery was still on my nook, so by searching around, I thought that perhaps that was the problem, so I got rid of it. This is a horrible mistake, as to now the boot loop remained, and I had no way to easily boot from an SD card.
After frantically searching for help, I was able to get out of the "Touch.." screen and go to the next screen, with the giant N. I have tried writing clockwork recovery to an SD card for many times, but kept getting "Error 8" while using Win32dskimgr. It wasnt until this morning that I discovered that by formatting the SD card, i was able to write on it once again. Thus the nook did some sort of "software update" and i was back to some sort of stock.
Stupid me tried to root again. I followed the same instructions, putting Autonooter 3.0 on the SD and plugging it in, but something went wrong again. More boot loops, except this time it was the android animation that was freezing. So i tried to use the factory reset, in hopes that it would revert to stock once more. Now i am stuck on the "Nook Color: by barnes and noble" screen, in another boot loop.
Ad it gets worse: while writing the autonooter sd card, i found that i cannot revert it back to normal, and my 2 gb sd is now saying it can only hold around 30 mb. Formatting does nothing.
Also, i have no knowledge of ADB, but still tried to get my nook recognized, but to no avail.
I desperately need help. Am i too far in the hole? Or can i fix this?
TL;DR : Nook was rooted, i was an idiot, now it is stuck in a boot loop. Clockwork is gone, and my SD card wont revert to normal. What do?
