Thank you for the reply. I don't know anything about scheduler. The phone was connected to the power source. How can I cancel it? It is stuck, pressing any of the keys doesn't work...

Stuck? Your phone got stuck while writing a file on RFS? Don't think I've heard of that one before. Anyway, just pull out the battery and put it back in. I get the feeling you did something funny somewhere though.
Could even be hardware issues...
Ok, sorry I'm a little afraid. Like I said, the phone stuck on the partition creation stage, during the lag fix running.
I have done a nandroid backup. What could I possibly done wrong?
Can I run this fix with any rom, radio, kernel etc?
and- do I need to see some animation during the partition creation stage? How much time may it take (max)?

I don't actually know what a partition creation stage is.
This is what the app does:
1. Makes a big file (long time)
2. Mounts it as loopback (instant)
3. Copies all of your data into the file (long time)
4. Renames your data to .bak (instant)
5. Creates symlinks to the data in the big file (instant)
6. Reboots your phone
As you can see, you can only be stuck on step 1 or step 3
If you reboot your phone at either point, no harm will be done. Just re-run it after.
I pulled the battery out. now when I enter the OCLF, both "one click lag fix v1+" and "undo one click lag fix v1+" are unavailable. When I check free space, It says that I have only 1050MB (before I had about 1700), so some change has been done. what can I do now?
also, can you please give me a little explanation about the scheduler? what should I do with it?

V1.6.6 will have a cleanup option you can use. It'll be out in awhile.
nothing I can do for now? can the restore boot animation work?
can I use my nandroid recovery to rollback changes?
[DISCLAIMER] Images are provideded "as is", use at your own risk!
[NOTE] This project is no longer maintained!
Quite a few people seem to end up in non-bootable-states (myself included) when trying to root/app/tweak etc..
So I made a couple of images that will help you trigger Factory Restore on your Nook Simple Touch.
Compability:
Nook Simple Touch - [1.0.0], [1.0.1], [1.1.0]
Requirements:
- A microSD card of atleast 128MB of size (existing data will be lost)
- Make sure your NST is charged! A failed root will drain your NST quickly without you noticing it!
Tools:
- Windows: win32 Disk Imager
- Linux: d'uh .. dd
- Mac: diskutil and dd
Still unsure about tools?, look here
Versions: (You only need one of these depending on how messed up your NST is. Try 0.1 first!)
- Version 0.1 [Without boot partition restoration] n2T-Recovery_0.1.rar (2MB)
- Version 0.2 [With boot partition restoration] n2T-Recovery_0.2.rar (16MB)
Usage:
- Uncompress the image
- Write the image to your mSD card with one of the tools listed above.
- Power up your Nook Touch with the mSD card inserted.
- Follow the instructions displayed on the screen.
If all went well you should see the factory restore screen popping up in 10-20 seconds after reboot, and you'll be back to the version your NST was originally shipped with* when it's finished.
If it doesn't, please share your "detailed" story in this thread and feel free to PM me, I've restored quite a few "hopeless" cases
[*] Factory Restore doesn't wipe your /data
Update:
26.11.2012 - Added new download links
28.01.2012 - Moved files to new server
Changelog:
[0.1]
- Initial release
[0.2]
- Rewrites boot partition before triggering Factory Restore
Credits:
- Based on Nook Simple Touch 1.0.0 boot partition
- Made possible by Noogie image by nookDevs
Scary!
But good solution when everything else fails. Thanks!

Nothing scary about it, it only writes to a single file on your N2 to trick it into believing there has been 8 missed boot attempts.
That is good to know, because timed things on smartphone and the like is a usual way to messy results. Try putting an iphone in DFU mode in order to jailbreak it...

Ah I see your point, but there's really no timing involved with this process.
Cleaned up the instructions a little, thank you.
Did Not Completely Restore, But...
I was able to restore by the following:
1. Tried your method on a rooted (1.00 FW) Touch but it seemed to hang on the last bit of rebooting.
2. I wrote the factory 1.01 update to an SD card using Winimage, turned the Touch off, put the SD Card in, turned the Nook on, let it go to sleep (per BN Instructions for applying update) - it woke up, applied 1.01 and unrooted simultaneously.
3. Reregistered and rerooted using ManualNooter.

do you have a link for the .img for the update? I only found a zip file, not sure how to use Disk Imager to put that on there.
But yeah, I'm experiencing the same issue, hangs on the reboot part.

I have never seen or even heard of a 1.0.1 update image.
The 1.0.1 update is distributed as a zip file that has to be saved on the Nooks internal storage trough usb. This makes no sense to me.

Answers -
1. By "hanging" I meant it's stuck on the last little bit of writing the restore img - never quite finishes.
2. Just go to BN site and you can download "update.zip 1.01" for the Touch - it gets applied by placing on the root of the internal memory and booting up
3. My Bad - I meant TouchNooter

Ok, so the factory restore got triggered but didn't complete, wonder why.
Did you try to trigger restore again?
I'm gonna look into adding more advanced recovery options to the tool.

Yes I know, but you said you wrote it to sdcard with winimage, which didn't make any sense
The only way I can get my nook to boot into a usable environment is by way of a touchnooter bootable mSD. I managed to move the 1.0.1 update onto the NOOK patition, but I had to boot off of a noogie SD (for some reason, USB mode doesn't work when I boot off of touchnooter)to do so. Even after letting it go to sleep, it doesn't seem to recognize that there's an update. I have no clue what to do.
EDIT: Tool is a lifesaver.

I've replied to your PM.
Thanks for this img. Accidentally powered off the Nook with a core android file missing and when I turned it back on, I was stuck on a looping 5-dot start up screen. This gave me a very easy way to fix it and didn't really erase anything, either. The TN stuff was gone, but every app I'd installed myself after rooting with TouchNooter remained, as did my launcher and setup, etc.
Glad to hear it worked for you
I also have new version under testing that will help people with more severe problems.
mrmystery96 a few posts up had a completely broken boot partition after some app/mod tried to write its recovery there.
He got a development copy from me last night and he was able to successfully restore his Nook Touch, so I should be able to release it in a day or two.
How long is it generally expected to take? I'm just looking at a blank (but backlit) screen with your sd image.
I dd'd the file to the root of the sd card (/dev/sdc), not any partition. Is it supposed to be on a partition?

The built in "Factory Restore" doesn't wipe everything, it just restores important parts of your system.
If you want to clean your NST you can boot it while pressing both left and right bottom buttons (it will trigger Factory Reset (not restore))
If you want your NST absolutely 100% clean, I'm sorry to say that you should have made a backup before rooting it

You can't.
Every NST contains unique data so it's not possible to make a generic restore image. It is possible to make one customised to your NST tho, I've made a few of those.

Just press the power button until you see the screen flicker, then immediately press and hold those buttons until you see the "Factory Reset" screen, then follow the instructions on the screen.
Hey guys,
I was using Sandvolds ICS for some weeks, but since yesterday my phone won't work anymore. I was starting a bike tour, but GPS on Endomondo didn't really work. So I restarted my phone. When I boot it'll show the white screen with green HTC logo, then it'll show the Evervolv animation and this animation will be displayed until I remove the battery, one time I had it running for half an hour.
I tried to boot the phone without sd card and could boot, but after "optimising" apps it kept on crashing because, as it appears, the system data is partly on the sd card.
Now I don't know what to do, what would you recommend? I'd probably just wipe everything and reinstall a backup, but - I don't have a backup
wipe everythin and reflash another rom/same rom...............

I got the same situation with you dude!!
I'm now using beta 0.17.1, but after this afternoon everything was wrong.
Then I did a full wipe and installed the latest version of Sandvolds ICS,
It's good and normal before I activate a2sd, but after that
everything went wrong again.
And finally I tried HTC DESIRE-AOKP-milestone6 v2,
It is working normally with INT2EXT, but not very smooth and stable.
actually i don't know what's going on right now :crying:

hi everybody..i've got the same problem..everything was ok until yesterday with the latest release of the sandvold ics rom..when my phone shutted down for low battery,i put it on charge..after that,i booted it up,and it still remain on the evervolv logo...so i tried to wipe cache,wipe partition,factory reset and format and repartition the sd card..reinstall the rom..and eveything was ok the first time..after that,i enabled the a2sd,and it strucked another time..so i did everything again from the beginning,but this time i enabled the a2sd without any problem..so i started to download from the market all the stuff that i needed,and everything was fine..so i rebooted the phone..and here we go again..strucked!but the worst thing is that without the sd,the phone boot without any problem!now..i bought the sd a week ago..it's a new one..i don't think that it's an sd problem..or also the first times it won't be able to boot up and everything..also i would't be able to install the rom!..so..any suggestion?

maybe you can temporarily try DESIRE-AOKP-milestone6 v2
it's also a good choice! and a good rom also.
Hey,
I have the same problem! I also have Sandvolds ICS rom and it gets stuck on the Evervolv loading screen.
It loads up flawlessly without my SD card but then all my stuff is gone.
Any way to backup my data? (EDIT: Nevermind that question, I used backup from recovery)
BTW, SD card works, I can mount it from recovery mode.
Guys, what you say doesn't make me happy!
Maybe it's worth mentioning that I was NOT using the latest version of ICS, but I had no problems for weeks. I'm already waiting for the new Nexus phones, one of them will save me a lot of time and trouble updating to the newest OS and software
Good luck everyone, and please tell us if you manage making your phone working again
tried updating to latest ics via 4ext - fail! i could watch the evervolv animation for hours
Possible Solution
Looking in the Sandvold's thread a lot of people have been claiming that the bootloops is caused by the most recent version of Google Play 3.9.16. Apparently just deleting that will let you boot fine.

Thanks for your hint, but after a few steps, I was stuck. After downloading the SDK (not mentioned in the tutorial) I experienced problems in the following steps, here is where I had problems
- cd Program Files(x86)/Android/android-sdk/platform-tools/ - I had to enter cd AppData\Local\Android/android-sdk/platform-tools/
- adb shell - command didn't work - I entered adb resulting in lots of text on my screen
- cd /data/data/ - the shell didn't accept this

You need to mount "system" and "USB storage". You have to be connected to your computer.

Exactly, you have to mount more or less everything, depends on what kind of a2sd you have.
In my case, I had to mount everything because of "standard app2sd"; my "vending" are in /system, /data and /sdext.
Just to be sure, you have to undestand if the phone is connected to the computer. To check this try to write:
...../platform-tools/adb kill-server (press enter)
...../platform-tools/adb start-server (press enter)
NOW plugin your HTC Desire (in Recovery mode) to the computer and digit:
...../platform-tools/adb devices
Should appear at least your Deside (on the right side of the phone code will appear the word"recovery")
If this appear, you can prooced with "adb shell" or all other commands required for the procedure.
I had the same bootloop problem, it was easy to remove all the Play Store files.
Hope helping you.

I think that Tourist06 can't resolve with mounting /system or something else, because he has a problem with adb (adb don't talks with his device).
Have you followed this guide for installing adb?
@freakymonkey: I followed the guide, seemed to work! If I enter the shell I no more need to enter the whole path, entering "adb" will produce text. Please have a look at the following screenshot, hope you can confirm this.
@matteo.rex, no success, here's a screenshot

Uhm, this is the problem maybe.
First question: is the phone charging when you plugin it to the pc? (I had a problem with the cable...solved changing it)
Second: could be not an ADB installation problem, but a Driver Installation problem. Check this thread to download it: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=654047
If typing "ADB" a list of command appear, this mean that it work.
Windows, after the driver installation, have to recognize you Desire also during Recovery, not only during common use.
I hope it could help you!
Let us know!
p.s. I use ADB over Ubuntu, but the work is the same.

You must have done something else. At worst changing the boot animation with a bad one would give you a black screen until to booted. Tell us exactly what you did step by step

Yes when booting the device make sure it is connected via USB and then use adb log cat and check the log.

It says waiting for device... :S But its connected.
I've plant to do following:
1. Go to Bootloader > Recovery > Mounts and storage >
2. i'll format /boot /cache /data /system
3. Reboot system and when you do that system goes to boot loader automatically.
I've tried this one and i've installed gapps-gb-20110828-signed.zip and unofficial-CM7-marvel-nigthly-01_15_2012.zip but system again stuck at bootanimation.
I think problem is not just that custom bootanimation.zip.
I've edited system.yaffs2.img from backup and reinserted it all custom animation have gone but system still wont boot. Any solution is there any way do Clean Reinstall android like we do with Windows on PC xD?

From recovery factory reset/wipe data. Then install new rom from SD card pal. Also you need to issue the log cat command just after you tell the phone to reboot or it will stay waiting :what:

No problem, we are all new at this once, right?
First Step: Downloads!
TWRP:
http://dualhoki.vim.hu/bubor/dev/twrp-i927/twrp-2.8.4-for_odin.tar.md5
ROM:
Here is a matter of preference. If you want the latest *working* version, you can upgrade to 5.0, but you lose the camera. I presume you want the camera to work, so I suggest Bubor's CM11 for KitKat. There are other good roms too, like PAC and SediRom, but we will start with Bubor's CM11.
http://dualhoki.vim.hu/bubor/dev/11.0/cm-11-20160126-UNOFFICIAL-i927.zip
http://dualhoki.vim.hu/bubor/dev/11.0/cm-11-20160126-UNOFFICIAL-i927.zip.md5sum
ODIN:
http://www.mediafire.com/download/7us5q44aab1xl9d/Odin304.zip
Second Step: Prepare.
I am presuming that you are using a Windows computer. If you are using a Linux computer, I can tell you what to do also, but these instructions are for Windows. I am also presuming that you have an external SD card in your phone, if you do not, go buy one and put it in your phone.
Unzip the Odin304.zip by right clicking on it and say unzip/extract, etc. If your Windows does not have this option, you need to download a program like winzip or 7zip so you can unzip this file. If you need those programs, they can be googled and downloaded.
Third step: Further preparation.
Turn on your phone and plug it into a usb cord and plug the usb cord into your computer. If you are using Windows, it will try to find drivers for the phone. It should be automatic and just work. If it does not, then you need the drivers, which are here:
http://www.mediafire.com/download/0up21ccc9gajwjv/Samsung_USB_Driver_for_Mobile_Phones_v1.5.14.0.exe
*If you downloaded this file, just double click it like a program, it should open and install drivers for your phone. Do not do this unless your computer cannot find drivers for your phone!
Fourth step: Charge your phone.
Plug in your phone and FULLY charge it. ALL the way to 100% CHARGED. No exceptions. No shortcuts. Do it. Then UNPLUG YOUR PHONE AND TURN IT OFF.
Fifth step: Put TWRP on your phone.
a. Your phone should now be unplugged and off. Open the ODIN folder that you unzipped earlier and double click on ODIN to open the program.
b. Click on the PDA button ( you and I both know that your phone is not a PDA, this is not a typo ) and it will open a browser. Find the twrp-2.8.4-for_odin.tar.md5 file and select it. It should now fill in the blank line next to PDA with this info.
c. WHILE HOLDING THE UP VOLUME BUTTON ON YOUR PHONE, press and hold the power button. When you see "SAMSUNG" you can release the power button, but KEEP HOLDING THE UP BUTTON, untill you see a yellow triangle and warning notice. If you hold too long, that is okay as it will take you straight to the download mode with the green android that says "ODIN" at the top and "Downloading" in the middle. If you got stopped at the yellow warning/triangle, press up again to go to download mode.
d. Plug your phone into the usb, and the usb into your computer.
e. In the Odin program, press start.
You should now see a serries of verbage going by on the left, at the top a green bar may fill in, and hopefully, in the end it says "success" or "pass". Your phone should reboot all by itself. If ODIN says fail, ask for further instructions. If passed, close Odin.
Sixth step: Put your CM11 files on your phone.
Your phone should have rebooted and looks just like it did before, now powered on, and in your stock Ice Cream Sandwich firmware. As with any file transfer, plug your USB into the phone and computer. Drag the CM11 files to the phone. Anywhere will do, but if you have an external SD card in your phone, I recommend you put it there.
Seventh Step: Boot into TWRP.
a. Turn off your phone.
b. Unplug the USB.
c. HOLD THE DOWN VOLUME BUTTON and press the POWER BUTTON. When you see "Samsung" release the POWER BUTTON, but keep holding the VOLUME DOWN BUTTON. At the top of the screen, white letters should say something like "entering recovery".
d. When you see "Team Win Recovery Project" release the down volume button.
Eighth step: Make a backup!
a. Press "Backup" button on screen.
b. Check all checkboxes (system, cache, data, boot, Android Secure)
c. Press "Storage: sdcard (xxxx mb)" bar.
d. Select "External_sd" to choose to backup to your external sd card.
e. Slide the swipe bar to the right to backup. This will take a few minutes, with progress bar.
NOTE: if the screen dims, when you touch it, you will see a TWRP lock icon, swipe right to unlock it.
f. When backup is completed, it will say "reboot system", do not click that. Click the "home" icon in the lower left corner.
g. Click the "Wipe" button.
h. Swipe right to factory reset.
i. Click the "home" icon in the lower left corner.
j. Click the "install" button.
k. At the top, click on the "Storage: sdcard (xxxx mb)" bar.
l. Select "External_sd"
m. choose the cm-11-20160126-UNOFFICIAL-i927.zip
n. When that is done, click on the "reboot system" button.
The system will reboot. You should now see CM11's boot screen. The first boot takes a bit of time.
Ninth step: Thank Bubor.
a. Log into XDA.
b. Go to http://forum.xda-developers.com/captivate-glide/development/dev-cm-11-0-t2802184
c. Slap every thanks button that is for a post by Bubor untill it tells you that you cannot slap any more thanks buttons (that is only 8 thanks per day).
Tenth step: Enjoy your phone!
....I think you know how to do that.....
If you have ANY questions, please just post them here and we will see if we can answer them.
I am thanking you so very much! Also... I do apologize for such a time lapse in my reply. Life happened.
I followed the above procedure and have CM11 installed. But my problem is I can't use my SIM card anymore because it's like my phone doesn't see it at all. I checked my settings and saw that I no longer had an IMEI number. I used the restore feature and the stock ROM had an IMEI number. What should I do? I saw a few threads about using a program to rewrite the IMEI or others to copy the file containing the IMEI but I wasn't really sure what I should do or how to copy files to and from that partition from my computer. I should add that the phone is unlocked.

Great question, and an interesting problem!
First, I am really glad that you followed the instructions and made a backup! It is good to know that you can always go back to the way it was.
I recommend that you download another rom from the developer section here, such as Sedi-rom, omni-rom, etc., and try flashing that. If you flash one of those roms, does your IMEI stay for those roms?
Try this one: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2789727
You can do steps 7 through 10 with any of the roms in the developer thread. If this other rom works, you can use it, or download others and try them. If the SediRom does not work also, then we will need to sit down and figure this out.
I really appreciate the fact that you're here to help.
I downloaded and installed SediRom 2.1.2 and my IMEI still shows as "Unknown." However this time I should add there is a serial number, which I don't believe was present in CM11 or in the stock ROM, although I'm not sure if that's at all significant. I made an external backup of the efs file from the stock ROM, is there some way I could just reinstall CM11 and replace/overwrite the efs to give it an IMEI number? I'd really like to use CM11 if possible, I was enamored by how good it looked and how functional it was, especially since the last time I tried CM a long time ago I didn't have such a good opinion of it. Plus the bootloader is friggin sweet !
I recently got the phone unlocked off eBay, so I don't know its past history but I was able to access the network when I had the SIM card in prior to initially installing CM11 but not afterwards. I'm trying to use a T-Mobile SIM but like I said I was able to successfully access the network prior to installing CM11. But the IMEI doesn't show at all regardless if the SIM is in at all.
Is there some kind of different hardware/firmware like in a newer slightly different version of the phone that came out resulting in compatibility issues? I'm not the most experienced but I've dipped by toes in this before, so I would be willing to go the extra mile if it meant I could get CM11 to work, because honestly it looked like everything I could ever want from this phone with a good looking theme too...
Do you have a full backup of the efs partition?
If so it should be enough to restore it.

Yes I believe so. I used the procedure from this thread to back it up. I tried copying the efs directly over using the built in file manager with root access, but when I try to copy the entire efs folder over I get a non-descriptive error "this operation has failed." I tried copying the nv_data.bin folder by itself to overwrite the one currently there (which copied successfully), then rebooted the phone but the IMEI still shows as "unknown." Do I need to copy the efs while the phone is in recovery mode or via PC or something because of file in-use errors or something else I don't know about?

Well restoring efs have to be done in recovery only! Do not try to do this while android is running!!
To be honest the absolute best way is having a dd partition dump of the whole partition. When you have followed the mentioned guide do you have used also dd like this?
dd if=/dev/block/mmcblk0p1 of=/storage/external_SD/efs.img
I don't know if copying the efs folder alone would work.. better is restoring the whole partition if possible. Do you have such kind of backup?

FYI, I tried re-downloading it, but that didn't seem to work yesterday.
I really appreciate all of your work, everything is working great.
Thanks for the quick responses.
All the best!
So I'm really late here but the phone got thrown to the backburner and I forgot about it. Lol but anyways, I created the EFS backups using dd like it said, but I'm not sure how to restore them? Do I unpack them and then use ADB to move them there? I'm kind of confused. Also, for some reason going through the TWRP to the stock ROM doesn't let me root it, it crashes every time I get to that screen, don't know if that's important to the operation. Hope I can finally get this stupid thing working right with the custom ROM...

Okay so I used TWRP to do a factory restore, flashed SuperUser, then flashed CM11, went into TWRP and did the terminal commands you listed in the guide for backing up the EFS... to no avail. Would it be better to copy the EFS while I'm still on the rooted stock ROM using a terminal app? I don't understand what the problem is...
