Nook hd plus CM10.1 boot

It worked fine until i tried to update. Did it through the update screen in the options.
Update froze, now the tablet boots to the nook screen, flashes to the cyanoboot screen and just sits.

Its been a while since ive messed with this, and i'm not sure what to do. Any ideas?

Been out of the game for a while. Looking to update the Nook. Best recovery+Best ROM?

I lost my Nook Tablet for a while and just recently found it again. I'd like to update the recovery tool and put a new ROM on it so I'm looking for suggestions.

I had previously rooted it and installed ClockWorkMod and then it is running some version of an Android ROM. I'm looking to update the ROM to something newer so I can make use of new apps etc. Also I know newer ROMs need newer recovery tools to install. Is CWM still the go to for that?

Thanks for any help! :)

Kindle Fire vs Nook HD?

Trying to decide between these two devices for my son. It looks like I can get a manufacturer refurb Nook HD for about the same price as a new Kindle (with Special Offers).

He is interested mostly for reading books, so book selection (both buying and borrowing for free from libraries) is a top concern.

Also interested in web browsing, email, and some games.

I'M interested in how hackable it is, installing a better version of Android on it, unleashing some more potential, etc.

Thoughts? Advice? Thanks.

Dumped Nook HD+ for Lenovo Tab 2 A10

I tried several different ROMs with HD+, but got frustrated with poor performance. Lenovo is working good so far, but you might NOT want to upgrade from Kit Kat to Lollipop on the Tab 2 as you will lose a little functionality (Dolby Atmos and some display modification options will cease to work) of the tablet. Also, Lenovo hasn't provided any good support for these issues.
