Contribute via PayPal. Yeah thtats the sole reason I now have a nook. It may take a while. This will be your backup in case you want to restore the stock Nook OS and all your data. Follow the instructions on the CyanogenMod Wiki to install adb.
Please read the instructions carefully. You basically need to download some software, unzip it, execute it, and in the menu that appears, select a fairly minimal set of tools to install.
I just opened a terminal and executed. Next, you have to completely reset the Nook. Use the reset function built into your bootable ClockworkMod disk. It should only take a moment. There are a couple ways to install software onto the Nook.
Remove the USB cable from the Nook power charger and plug it into your computer. Your computer is now connected via USB to the Nook. In my case, it looked like this:. These take a few moments to transfer. When I did it, they took about 55 and 40 seconds, respectively. Select the CyanogenMod zip file and install it, then the Google Apps gapps zip file and install that.
I have gone through this process a couple of times and had the transfer appear to succeed but the files never appeared in the ClockworkMod menu , then when I rebooted the Nook and tried again, it worked fine.

Don't let them make money out of other people's work! I know! But you don't have to learn a lot of it! I feel no need to use any other ROM for these devices. I do root them, but "root" is not the same as running a different ROM.

I understand why someone who likes to fiddle with these things want to do it. Hey, I'm one of them! You will probably want to repeat this process every so often, upgrading to newer hummingbird packages as they become available. And as an older device, the Nook HD sometimes gets short shrift on the latest dev builds.
The steps are basically the same, but it uses different OS image and Google Apps package files than the ones I link to here. But again, the latest Kit Kat nightly is working fine for me. There are several different versions of the package, of various different sizes, including different combinations of the apps.
Any app except the Play Store itself can, of course, be installed later from the Play Store if you do decide you want it.
But you probably guessed that already. Before you enjoy your newly Kit Katted out Nook HD, there are a couple of things we want to do first. However, if you try to install it from the Play Store you run into a problem. You can also install these apps by downloading their APK file from somewhere, putting it on an SD card, and using a file manager to install the APK file manually, but doing it from a third-party app store is a lot simpler.
If you should want to update it down the road, just check the 1mobile site page to see if the version has changed and if so, reinstall it. See this guide for more information. I hope this guide has helped you, and not bricked your Nook. Sorry about that. If you do want more advanced technical help, a good spot to check would be the XDA Developers Nook HD forum , which is where I found the not-terribly-user-friendly guides that I originally used.
The overall process is identical to putting Kit Kat on it, but swap in these three new files in place of the ones given above:. Obtain your recovery image and your Cyanogenmod 12 OS image from this Box directory. I was formerly using one dated , but it appears they only keep the most recent version in that directory at any given time. The only way to update to a more recent version is to download it anew and run the update again manually from the SD card.
To install Lollipop, just put those three zip files on the SD card you prepared according to the above instructions, and install them from the bootloader in the traditional recovery, then OS, then apps order just like I explain above.
Reboot and cross your fingers. In the end, I rebooted from my SD card again and reinstalled the gapps zip package, and it worked properly again after I rebooted. So after you install an update, remember to reinstall gapps as well before you restart. Credit where credit is due: I found the advice on what files to use to upgrade to Lollipop via this guide on Lilliputing. Kit Kat is tempting just to try, though…. One minor correction: Nook books use Adobe DRM so Aldiko can, in fact, open your purchased books without stripping them of anything.
Simply enter your name and credit card when prompted. You rock. This was really easy to follow and got me up and running in no time. I wish the developers would make direction much more easy for the average person to follow.
So easy, links all in one place with easy to read instructions. Thank you! I am having a problem with part 1, step 7. Any ideas how I can proceed? Chris suggested I might have a bad disk, so I bought a new one. Turned out the problem was that my SD card adapter was bad. Switched adapter and had no problems. Thanks Juli, after formatting the card and trying again it worked OK, but I too like James found that I was unable to backup my nook, but went ahead with the install anyway.
Is there any other way to revert back to the nook software if I ever wish to? Thanks for the clear instructions. Installed perfectly after that. Tom, I had to perform the Wipe Data before it would install also. I left it on the spinning screen for well over an hour. Managed to get one cheap through ebay and am hoping to get it all figured out before it arrives next week!
Hi, I am not getting the option to backup OR to load zip files from the external sd card. The nook HD boots into the 6. Any suggestions? If you want to back up the data, take the SD card out, and put another one in and select backup option. Probably a corrupt copy but CM8 worked fine. Thanks, worked a treat, although the first cm11 file i chose aborted.
So i deleted it from the card and added another and it worked a treat. I downloaded different types and they all do it. Winzip is set to open gzip and works on some other files i have. Are these downloads broken?
