If you have twrp recovery, you could use open recovery script to perform factory reset. The openrecoveryscript

Would be

wipe data

wipe cache

wipe dalvik

The script can be typed up in Linux, use ADB command to push to sdcard, then the ADB push openrecoveryscript to nabi command. For an example follow this thread http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2016463

Or search my name in this thread made a open recovery script tutorial.

Maybe some one can point me in the right direction. For some reason my keyboard would no longer activate. Not a problem, I just reflashed and thought I could call it a day. When I rebooted, I noticed that WiFi was not running. I skipped though everything and tried to turn the WiFi on but no avail. I read some post from another thread about going back to my stock ROM and from there ADB a file. Sounds like a lot of work, and I am sure there is an easier way to get this WiFi working. Any pointers would be greatly appreciated!

Would help to know what version your on, in settings/about tablet. Should be 1.9.37, most problems I've heard of are on lower versions. If not on 1.9.37, then download it and flash that firmware.

I am having the same issue no WiFi on the Nabi 2. Where would I find said files?
[Miscellaneous Android Development] n3wt:
should be in the folder TWRP/BACKUPS/YOURSERIAL/stockunrooted on your device. YOURSERIAL being your actual serial number (or device id really). EDIT: forgot to mention where recovery would be...might be easier to follow this thread: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2041224 ...if you're not on linux just grap the files from the link and do it the way you did when you rooted. Hope that makes sense.
[Miscellaneous Android Development] mehtuus:
You could also check out this thread for a Windoze installer that says it can "install a stock 1.9.37 in the event of loss of backup." Sounds like it might be just what the Dr. ordered...
[Miscellaneous Android Development] kcallis:
One issue that I have run across is that when I add credentials on the NABI, I see that although it will show my installed apps, when I try to added paid apps, it does allow me to add the app. For instance, I wanted to re-install my copy of Plex (a paid app) onto the Nabi. When I search for it on Play, it shows the app, but it also listed the price for the app. If I click on the app to install I get an error message. Any way to get around it that issue? I know it can't be an issue with the device serial number, because for instance with Plex, I purchased it on my TF700 tablet, then later on I used Play on my Galaxy S3 and was able to again pull down the Plex app.

Any pointers would be appreciated... Although I might do a Titanium backup on my tablet, and then pull the card and put in the Nabi and see if that will work.

Yes, I am familiar with this sort of problem, but I am speaking of generic apps. For instance I am a trying to pull down Titanium Backup. I added my credentials with Play on the Nabi, and the first thing I noticed was there was a price showing for the Titanium Backup Pro Key (which I own). So regarding the adding of the accounts, even if I look at the apps that are installed on Play that belong to me, I am still not able to download things.
[Miscellaneous Android Development] ALD3:
I have seen this problem one time. This is what I did, go into settings/accounts and delete your Google account. Then reboot device and make your Google account again. That may help you, not sure.

it goes to OTA_UPDATE

then gets renamed to nabi2-update.zip and pushed to cache
[Miscellaneous Android Development] Ken Esq:
I believe there will be another update pretty soon with some additional features like time limits on device usage.
[Miscellaneous Android Development] ALD3:
Thanks, I completely forgot about my stock backup. I did pull the OTA.zip from OTA_UPDATE folder on internal storage. I may try and adb sideload first. Just to try anyhow. Will let all know how that turns out.

EIDIT....... Wasn't able to sideload ota.zip, so restored unrooted twrp and then installed the ota update. Later I will have to root again. Don't see a lot of difference yet, other than Cartoon network app. Which is is in 1Moble Market and Play as a free app.

sorry for hijacking this but this. i got my spcial needs son a nabi xd form walmart i was shocked to see it had no Google play store on it so while was playing with it i did discover that is root guide might kind of work it does root the device and work up-until it is booting into recovery then nothing but a black screen then a few min later it reboots to nabi desktop so if anyone seriously wants a backup image and you walk me though it i would be happy to contribute to the effort i know this is a month or so ahead before this is totally released
[Miscellaneous Android Development] aicjofs:
Another forum member has one of the XD's also, we have Pm'd about it. The TWRP for the Nabi2 does the same thing on his XD, black screen. Not surprising as the kernel is different. He also tried an openrecoveryscript since you can't see but was getting errors. Not too hard to build a device tree for this and then build a working TWRP but we need at minimum 2 pieces of information. We need the boot image to get the kernel and ramdisk, and the partition table.

If you can get adb interface working with the screen black, we need a

adb shell

cat /proc/partitions

and

dd if=/dev/block/mmcblk0p1 of=/data/media/mmcblk0p1.img

We weren't able to accomplish this over PM, but you could try on yours. If that doesn't work we are going to need to use the adb exploit for Jelly Bean to gain temp root, and pretty much accomplish the same as above. If we have those 2 pieces of information we can get the kernel, explore the ramdisk to make init.rc and other device specifics, and the partition table to make the mount points. Then build working TWRP, and then it's pretty much the same root process for SU, deleting auto install of stock recovery, and installing the JellyBean gapps for 4.1, instead of gapps for 4.0. Might not be quite that simple but it's quite doable.

aicjof's root

FYI just rooted after unrooting and installing V2 ota over 1.9.37. I used aicjofs's newer root package and wanted all needing to root or even unroot for update, that aicjofs's root package works very well and also smooth with no problems. It has jmz stuff, newer twrp and t499's gapps with no android updating after first boot. Check it out at here.

While I am thinking about it...

I was trying to go back and edit any of my posts talking about the lockscreen mods I have posted(Hello Kitty, Pokemon, etc). I haven't had a chance to update either kids Nabi but I was looking through the OTA and the framework-res.apk is one of the files patched. The file getting messed up can cause a boot loop which you will have to restore out of or place the old file. Either way just a heads up before trying them it's a possible, if not likely outcome, don't want anyone having to deal with that unless you are testing.

Trying to bring cm10 over if anyone would like to help..
[Miscellaneous Android Development] aicjofs:
So anyone actually try just restoring Gallery2.apk, (and for those with lockscreenmods framework-res.apk)?

Those 2 files are what the OTA should fail on, because it runs a checksum(SHA1?) on all the files it wants to update. Gallery2.apk is removed when you install gapps, and framework-res.apk is modified if you did a lockscreenmod so those two will fail. Restore the 1 or 2 original files, and stock recovery it should work. Restoring system doesn't take too long, but this would be quicker and with less writes to the flash.

replied. I'm interested, I have built CM10 from source for Nabi and got stuck at bootloop, and haven't had any time to debug last month or so.
[Miscellaneous Android Development] GuyIncognito721:
If anyone's got the gallery2.apk backup they'd like to share I'll give it a go
[Miscellaneous Android Development] n3wt:
You should be able to pull it out of your stock backup.

I think this will work, I'm doing this remote desktop and can't test. Flash in TWRP, or grab Gallery2.apk from inside zip at /system/app

Download Gallery2 and Framework restore

If it works it will restore Gallery2.apk and framewrok-res.apk(for those that had lockscreenmod)
[Miscellaneous Android Development] spectrasez:
I was up until 4:00am trying to update my son's nabi. I was stuck as the update kept failing due to the gallery2.apk. I didn't know what to do. I ran the stockunrooted that was backed on the device and it still kept failing. I was finally able to revert to stock using the updated tool by aicjofs. At first thought it wasn't doing anything as it said the files doesn't exist. I decided that if anything doesn't happen in 15 minutes I was done, then I saw movement at about 3:35am. Stock was restored and I was able to update to version 2.
[Miscellaneous Android Development] GuyIncognito721:
OK, so update was pretty easy.

1. Copy/paste gallery2.apk into /system/apps/

2. Reboot to bootloader, flash old recovery

3. Go to settings->about>check for upgrade

4. Click upgrade, wait for everything to install

5. Reboot bootloader, flash twrprecovery

6. Enter recovery, flash root.zip and gapps.zip

7. Done

What sucks is that this upgrade will re-install all the bloat and demo games that you likely already removed
[Miscellaneous Android Development] ALD3:
I had device rooted with t499.gapps and all I had to do was restore unrooted 1.9.37 from backup in twrp. The update ota ,all went fine. Root with aicjofs package and uninstall bloat ware. No problems with Gallery.apk
[Miscellaneous Android Development] n3wt:
You were able to take the OTA with TWRP recovery in place?
[Miscellaneous Android Development] ALD3:
No I don't think that is possible. When I restored unrooted 1.9.37, I lost twrp and root. So completely rerouted with aicjofs package and option 1. It installs twrp, root with supersu and t499 gapps. I tried flashing ota in twrp and side loading, finally decided it was way faster to just restore unrooted and do ota, the redo root, gapps and twrp. Very quick and easy with aicjofs package.
[Miscellaneous Android Development] n3wt:
Ok, yeah, I thought that sounded too good to be true.
[Miscellaneous Android Development] Eric Karz:
i did the update on the latest twp(2.4.3.0) . i took the nabi2-update.zip from cache

i also installed goomanager and it found me a proper gapps to flash

twrp also does a superuser and fix when you exit .
[Miscellaneous Android Development] aicjofs:
Maybe.... Or maybe not... :D

Here is just a grab of an APK, and lib to show generally but all I have checked are good. "205" is through stock recovery. "205TWRP" is through TWRP. mmcblk0p1 is the recovery.img with new kernel and ramdisk.

Just install zip through TWRP as you are, no flashing old recovery, no restoring system partition. Should be on v2.0.5 afterwards. Download to try: Nabi 2.0.5 Update through TWRP

I have only tested a little bit on each tablet. One lost root, one didn't. Both kept gapps. Too bad so many have already updated!! Fewer testers :( If you try it. Do a nandroid backup before!!!

Also note if you have a lockscreen mod. You need to undo it FIRST. If you have lost it here is TWRP flashable Restore Lockscreen

I've got a list of things TWRP for Nabi Jr, TWRP for Nabi XD, and jmztaylor invited me to post the mods at Teamdirt.me which I still haven't got to...My CM10 for Nabi2 build has been mocking me...You get the idea, I'm short on time!! :p. Anyway, for anyone that was using Nabilab to edit lockscreens I won't be updating it for awhile as it's pretty solid for v2.0.5 in the other things it does. BUT if you want to make mods for yourself take the restore to factory download from THIS post. It's called lockorig.zip, drop it in your NabiLab folder at NabiLab/install/lockscreen replacing the one that is there. Then the program should work for v2.0.5.

Hello,

Ok so i did update by file from here. The zip pile i think is call 137to200.zip it work great but it did delete my root. Is there a way to do root with out doing back up right after. I don't have enough space on the nabi.
[Miscellaneous Android Development] ALD3:
You can move your twrp folder to your micro sdcard and then after rooting package makes a backup and roots it, you can set twrp to use external drive for both backup and restore. Just tick the box at the top in restore and backup next to use external. If you don't want to adb root which will root without a backup, 1 thing I did after twrp was installed and twrp opens up to begin back up. Unplug USB cord from nabi and flash the root and gapps in twrp using the Install button.

If you still have twrp recovery, just boot into recovery by holding power and volume + at the same time, watch the top left corner of nabi and when a menu comes up release both. Use volume - to move down to Recovery then push volume + , I have had to push it 2 times but twrp will open in a few seconds. Then with install button you should see root.zip and gapps.zip. choose root.zip and then gapps.zip, swipe to install. Make sure both install and reboot system.
[Miscellaneous Android Development] aicjofs:
What version # of TWRP are you using?

Like above just copy root.zip to device and "install" in TWRP, the update didn't touch recovery so you should still have TWRP. I wonder how I kept root on one device. Maybe I should add root to the OTA update.
[Miscellaneous Android Development] cruise350:
Whatever version installs with Nabi Lab.
[Miscellaneous Android Development] aicjofs:
Any build.prop mods to make the Play store work?
[Miscellaneous Android Development] Bait-Fish:
I haven't updated my son's Nabi yet. Would it be safe to flash the root.zip immediately after flashing the update in TWRP, no reboot in between, to ensure root stays?
[Miscellaneous Android Development] aicjofs:
Wouldn't hurt anything that I know of.

Or if you are feeling frisky you can try the new update I made after listening to the feedback so far. General idea is this:

Restore stock build.prop, framework-res.apk

Perform normal OTA, except skip Gallery2.apk check and Gallery2.apk patch, remove installing stock recovery, and the auto stock recovery install each boot(recovery-from-boot.p, etc/install-recovery.sh)

Reapply root.

This would allow you to update if you have a lockscreen mod, or build prop mod, or if you have neither mod. It should keep gapps and root.

The only thing I can't fix is the failure on email.apk. There must have been some update on that one, that was unique to the system. If enough people have it though maybe we can add it. I haven't personally tested this one, have a full backup, it's not much of a change from the one that is having moderate success so worst it will do is fail.

Flash in TWRP, no need to do anything else except a

BACKUP

first.
