Not sure which technique you used to root. Did you also install the Google play store? If so, it sounds like you installed the wrong gapps.

I would boot to twrp and install the 1011 gapps.

NABI 2 Keyboard Problem

Hi There,

Unfortunately I can only get to the Nabi Set-up screen. I can't get to the TWRP screen. I can't enable developers options (USB Debugging) as I cant get into the device (This I think is the biggest problem as I cant see the NABI through PDA net and can run any recovery apps from SD as developer option is not enabled). I seem to be stuck in a loop and not sure where to go from here!

Any help or thoughts much appreciated.

Thanks

Virgil
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] GuyIncognito721:
Turn off the device. Power on the device by holding the power and volume up. At the option menu press volume down to get to recovery kernel and press volume up. This will get you to twrp.
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] vpporter:
Hi,

Thanks for that. I now have access to TWRP and though I would be OK. However when I try to install GAPPs or a Keyboard zip file it continuallys comes up with this error:

E: Unable to mount '/data' (tw_mount)

E: failed to mount /data (Invalid argument)

E: failed to mount /data (Invalid argument)

Any thoughts on this one? It seems to be related to SD card but I have tried a couple to no avail. Can the tablet reject SD cards?

THanks again for your help.

[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] GuyIncognito721:
have you tried going into the MOUNT sub-menu and trying to mount the data partition?
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] vpporter:
Hi There,

That seemed to work and I now have GAPPS installed and the keyboard working. Unfortunately the only problem remaining is that Wi-Fi is not working. It previously seen my Wi-Fi connection point and now it will not turn on i.e. I try to switch on Wi-Fi but it keeps going back to the Off position? Very strange. I'm on Android 4.0.4 and have tried the change in Mammy and Daddy mode! I appreciate your help with this and don't want to take up your time so I may post this issue under a new heading.

Thanks again for all your help and giving me the solution.

Hope you updated the tablet software to 1.9.37 before you did everything or you will be starting over from scratch
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] Askalaphos:
When I first rooted mine, probably some time in late Feb the consensus seemed to be to install the latest OTA software upgrade before rooting in order to avoid WiFi problems. I did this and I have not had WiFi problems. Just recently there has been yet another software and interestingly the bullet point summary of what has changed claims fixes for WiFi issues.

To install the upgrade from the rooted state you need to:

* Use the TWRP recovery to restore the backup you took when rooting to return the main OS to stock.

* Use adb fastboot flash to restore the original recovery.

* Boot normally, connect to WiFi, parent mode, settings/about/update and download/install the update.

[The OTA update works by downloading a file which is then installed by the stock recovery in a reboot cycle.]

* Use adb fastboot flash to flash TWRP recovery.

* Use TWRP recovery to backup the latest stock, install root.zip and gapps.zip.

There is more than one version of TWRP and I found the older one worked for me and the newer one had touch screen problems but you may find otherwise. The various versions are discussed here: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2074501

HELP

I see you helped this other person and hope you can me too. I like they did, followed the youtube video on how to root and install google play. It worked great when I did this last year on my kids nabi. I tried to do it again this year with a friends and kinda fell into a hole. My keyboard stopped work as well. I went back and tried to fix it by putting the gapps 1011. Well I didnt delete the old one (didnt know how) and now I cant get into TWRP. I have tried getting the recovery kernal and now when I push vol + it starts to load then gives me the dead android guy. Any suggestions on how to fix this. I sure hope so. Thanks

Rooted Nabi JR with wrong Root

I have been working on my step-sons nabi for a week now. I rooted three Tabeos fine but then i thought i could do the Nabi JR and it would go perfect...i was wrong. I accidently rooted it with the same package for the Tabeo and now when i boot it up the keyboard forces close and i cant do anything. I can not get to daddy mode, can not usb debug. there is no TPK or whatever installed to boot with. Im at a loss, all i can do is load from usb in the stock bootload menu but i cant seem to get it to work. I need help please...i voided the warranty and now he has no nabi! this is also the Nick JR version of the Nabi, i cant be sure what else is in it considering im stuck at the enter daddy password and no keyboad...
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] aicjofs:
Which Nabi JR? There are 2 versions. 4GB with tegra 2, or 16GB with tegra 3. Makes a difference in how we can help you. Probably need to put TWRP on device and restore a stock ROM. Then use TWRP to root it.
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] 2girlzdad:
are the ROMs out there? I didn't see anything on the wiki page

http://xdaforums.com/wiki/Fuhu_nabi_Jr

I have to admit though, I don't follow the Jr very much, so for all I know the ROMs are all over the place.
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] d.marie.1490:
need to fix nabi JR

how can i get twrp without entering debug mode..i cant even get into the nabi to get debug on...i can only access bootloader
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] aicjofs:
I think the 16GB tegra 3 is posted. Maybe the TWRP thread? Can't remember. Mr. Karz usually helps people that need the Nabi JR 4GB tegra 2. I think I have both ROM's but they aren't my creation and I don't have the devices to test so I don't post them.

You would use fastboot to flash TWRP from the bootloader. That's why I asked which Nabi you have. 2 different TWRP versions, and the tegra3 version has a locked bootloader, so you have to wipe the device to unlock the bootloader to install TWRP.

break it down for me

can you break that down on how i do that. i deleted everything out of it its in stock but keyboard does not work to access anything, i know its still rooted but i dont know how to fix it.
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] nitetimemc:
Hey guys, this is my last attempt to fix my sons nabi. It has the same issues as the original poster. I basically cant get anything to work on it.

When I follow these steps it goes to the android with the red exclamation point. I can't access the Nabi with my laptop. only a sd card. Is there anything I can do to save this thing? Thanks to anyone with advice and sorry for the thread necro but it was relevant.
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] aicjofs:
What version of the Nabi software were you on? Was the tablet stock or had you rooted it, gapps, etc? Can you boot Android but just the keyboard doesn't work? Or are there more issues besides the keyboard. Are your just trying to fix the one problem or are you trying to wipe the device and start fresh?

Likely you will need to get TWRP on the tablet, or at least be able to boot to TWRP. Answer those questions and I can have a better idea of what we can do.
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] nitetimemc:
The Nabi wouldn't take the latest update and it was apparently rooted to gain access to the google play store. It now appears the OS and everything else has been erased. I told my wife I would take a look at it and I immediately regret that decision, this is beyond my scope.

The only thing i have been able to access is the android screen which gives me access to the sd card. My laptop does not recognize it. I found this thread after a lot of searching and reading, some of the nabi threads are insanely long, and when I googled 'signature verification failed' to see if I could find someone stuck at the same point I am,

"I've been advised to return it to stock but when I try run the return to stock zip file (filed is called fuhu_nabi2_back_to_stock_from_scratch) via SD card it comes up with this message:

-- Install /sdcard ...

Finding update package...

Opening update package...

Verifying update package...

E:signature verification failed

Installation aborted

Any help with this would be appreciated.

Thanks"

Everything I have tried to run from the sd has returned this message. There's no keyboard, there's only the android screen. Anything else I try to do just freezes it. I was hoping to get it back to stock and let it update itself. So I guess the first thing I need to do I figure out how to get twrp on it.
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] aicjofs:
Don't worry about the error. That's the stock recovery and it won't install anything but official signed OTA's.

Install fastboot drivers

-USB connection between Nabi and computer

-Get the adb/fastboot drivers. http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1766220 or http://pdanet.co/

-Boot tablet to bootloader menu. (With tablet powered down press and hold both Vol- and power)

-Select fastboot protocol with vol keys

-Device should show up in device manager

-Install drivers

Install TWRP

- You need fastboot, search around maybe here? http://xdaforums.com/attachment.php?attachmentid=785476&d=1321538998

- Put fastboot.exe in a directory

- Download ICS TWRP: http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=48891386&postcount=76

- Unzip the recovery.img and put in folder with fastboot

- Install TWRP by opening a command prompt and typing

fastboot flash recovery recovery.img

(setup for next step) - Do a back up of just the boot partition in TWRP. Just check "boot" and nothing else. Make sure you are backing up to external storage(MicroSD card)

-Check booting to TWRP by boot tablet to bootloader menu. (With tablet powered down press and hold both Vol- and power)

-Select recovery kernell with vol keys

Install 2.3 ROM and bootloader.

- Download 2311 stock ROM http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=48714484&postcount=1941

- Download 2311 addon zip https://docs.google.com/file/d/0ByTvxgaoJXi5c3ctdW5sZFhJVG8/edit?pli=1

- Put SD card in computer. Navigate to the folder TWRP/BACKUPS/XXXX. XXX is a serial number unique to your Nabi.

- Make a new folder and call in whatever you want. So it should now look like TWRP/BACKUPS/XXX/yourfolder

- Unzip the 2 files you downloaded in to the "yourfolder" you created above. The files should look like ext4.system.win, emmc.boot.win, ext.addon.win, etc. This should set you up for the 2.3 ROM.

- Download this http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=50349692&postcount=89

- Copy it to the SDcard. This will be for the bootloader update.

- Put sdcard in Nabi

- Boot to TWRP

- Go to restore tab, and find the backup under the "yourfolder" you made and unzipped the files to.

- You should be able to select boot, system, and addon and skip the others.

- If everything restores then go to TWRP install tab, find the bootloader.zip you downloaded and install it.

- Reboot

Sorry short on time. You might have to figure a bit out on your own. That's the general flow though
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] nitetimemc:
I will have some time to work on it today. Thank you so much for your help. I will let you know how it goes.

edit: I had some problems getting drivers installed, although I think the pdanet drivers did work even though it was saying they weren't. Then I had to get everything in the same folder, along with some of the platform tools files and it was nice to see the TWRP screen again. From that point it was clear sailing.

There is no way I could have figured it out by myself. Thanks for providing such a detailed explanation for me to follow. I think its amazing that some of you guys even know how to do all of this. Thanks again. PM sent.
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] MerlinOfLore:
Many Many thanks :laugh: Couldn't figure out why it couldn't see the folder I had originally put the files in until I tried to do a backup and saw that, somewhere on this strange crazy trip, the serial of the Nabi had changed. Once it created the basic backup / restore folder with the correct serial I put the files in a folder there and BAM my granddaughter has a working Nabi running on JellyBean.

Now, it boots but the screen is dark, however I see the back, home and recent apps options into the screen. I guess the issue is that the code is too old for the unit I have.

Nabi works now but updates does not install

Thanks, I installed the bootloader and the device works now. The only problem I have now is that I cannot update the device. I removed TWRP with another original Nabi recovery image that I found in another thread. (http://xdaforums.com/wiki/Fuhu_nabi_2)

The OTA files download fine, are validated and when I finally select the option to install the unit reboots, then the defunct android image with the ! appears on the screen.

I have taken two screen captures and attached them to the current thread. Any help will be really appreciated.
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] aicjofs:
The screen shots look like that's an older stock recovery that can't mount the partitions.

I see you flashed bootloader but did you also download and "restore" the 3013 stock files. If you did there would be no OTA to take as you would be on latest version.

Hello,

I recently got the Nexus 4 and am pondering which case to get?

I am extremely worried about the glass back and am wondering if the bumper case will do any good in protecting the Nexus.

I drop my phone sometimes, usually the phone slides and scratches a great deal. An example is when I went running with my HTC EVO LTE, and dropped it. I dropped it on the road and it scratched up the whole front of the phone. Of course, I had no case on at that time.

What are the best cases I can buy for the Nexus 4 without it becoming huge? I prefer the bumper case, but am wondering if it will offer any real protection.

Rearth Slim

Maybe a bit ugly for some though.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ven4545:
if you want a slim case then best option would be Rearth case. I have it and it is very slim almost feels like without one but protected :)

[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] threeclaws:
If you are prone to dropping phones the only thing that will protect it is a full coverage case like an otterbox, which will add bulk. I have the poetic bumper and it offers enough protection for me but I have yet to drop a smartphone.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cyanide911:
How would you guys rate the Poetic Bumper in terms of protection? I've too decide between that and the Ringke case.

[Galaxy Tab 10.1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] R6Tuan:
i recently upgraded to the stock ICS via update from Samsung and there was no flash player. So i followed the guide on XDA to install flash player but it was really slow and glitchy. So i went back to the stock 3.2 firmware.

I really like the ICS firmware but i use my tab to mainly watch flash videos. So my question is there any CM10 ICS roms that has the flash player working as smooth as the original 3.2 firmware? I have the P7510 - WiFi US verison btw. Thanks.

I prefer to use the CM10 mod since i use the same on my Sensation and like it.
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] :
I think you are mistaken, cm10 is jelly bean and cm9 is ics. In my opinion, cm9 is waayyy smoother than stock ics, and as ics it supports flash. If you want cm10 you'll need the modded flash because it's not officially supported -- but just google it, there's a guide on xda.
[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] Daddy.Mouse:
Ok here is the deal short and sweet . I have a nook tablet 8gb best i can tell it has NO partitions on the internal flash section.

I have used ADB to confirm this i used parted this way to check ... type in p or print and nothing shows.

step 1 adb

C:\ADB>adb devices

List of devices attached

0000000000000000 recovery <-----first error

but adb will connect thru adb shell

so i type in parted /dev/block/mmcblk0

~ # parted /dev/block/mmcblk0

parted /dev/block/mmcblk0

GNU Parted 1.8.8.1.179-aef3

Using /dev/block/mmcblk0

Welcome to GNU Parted! Type 'help' to view a list of commands.

(parted) <-----seems to be working now the print command

(parted) print

print

print

(parted)

nothing.

I followed another post on here that gave commands to re-partition but when i finish there never there.

I can also boot to CWM from a sd card ...... and have a CM7 system sdcard that does work fine

But would love to fix the nook tablet so its just back to factory state for my daughter. if i could get some help on makeing partitions stay put after i write them i think i could move on with this project.

Alternative If someone would point me in the right direction to permanently fix partitions so CM7 would install to the internal flash i could live with that.

Thanks for reading this far.

Yes , i have tried this countless times different sd cards even bought a new 4 and 8 (4 speed) sdcard no luck even when it does boot from it the

red X show up and it reboots. So the best i can figure it has to have the factory partitions intact before this install will work. I even tried a clockwork mode recovery from another NT 8gb no luck o this either.

Im on week 2 of fighting with this thing i have learned alot but willing to learn more.

Thanks for the input :)

i guess i should have posted that when a recovery sdcard does work it will run for about 3 seconds ten show a red ! in a book

Well thats kinda the bad part it was used when i got it. And " I " done the damage. :) So i would not try and return it. But yes the emmc is blank dir under adb the only things i can find are in sbin folder and a few odd place like that.

I know this much if i ever fix this im writing a BIG tutorial on here cause i caint be the only one lol
[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] SlowCobra96:
I don't think you necessarily broke it. Unfortunately components fail, sounds like possibly some bad blocks. If you can run it from SD pop CM 10 from iamafanof.WordPress.com on it and call it a day.

Stubborn or not bad blocks means not fixing it unless you replace components. If it is indeed hardware related no matter what you try it isn't going to work.

digixmax thanks for the links imma give it a try in a few i hadent seen them links before
[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] SlowCobra96:
The reason they aren't "staying" is probably the result of an impending failure. The corruption in the blocks gets pushed to the side during a format, at least for a short period, then the corrupted blocks start getting read/accessed causing data corruption and/or further block failure. Now without having it in front of me I can't guarantee this is the problem but I strongly believe it is based on the description.
