[Fuhu Nabi 2] DarkAngel:
Well you can't over root. The 4.1 update ( OTA ) already comes with GApps included. TWRP is the Recovery and has no effect what so ever on your OS disk space. If root is not taking you may not have enough space in the system folder. You may need to delete some apps located in the " system/ " folder that will not be used in order for you to apply the root through TWRP.

=======================================================================================================

For anyone confused about how recovery and all is broken down....

In general: Think of the Nabi as a PC at your house.

The recovery in our tablets is like the DOS Setup when you first start up your computer with no operating system.

The OS ( 4.0 or 4.1 ) in our tablets is like Windows.

Recovery has it's part for you to always go into in case something goes wrong as to why it's called recovery. From there you load what ever compatible OS your tablet has available for it. Now in certain cases, OTA's ( Over The Air ) updates for the OS will not take as it looks for certain files in your system to be there and also not to be modified.

Now of course there are other additions and/or partitions that are required for the tablet to function properly but the ones that were mentioned above should give you and any the understanding of how everything works.

=======================================================================================================

If you are already on 4.1 and have TWRP JB installed and root is not taking, you may need make room in system folder.

If you want to try this then this is what I would try:

A full wipe to stock may help clear some space in the system folder like you mentioned. Make a full back up of your tablet via TWRP. Back up your apps with Titanium Backup or using another program then fully go back to stock by doing a full reset on the tablet, TWRP will remain. Then load your recovery ( TWRP ) and exit to the OS. Before you exit you will be asked if you would like to root your tablet, swipe to root. Afterwards, reboot to the OS. You will need to set up your tablet again. Once you have set it up, go through Daddy/Mommy mode and click on the SuperSU app so you can download updates and the app updates, it may update via TWRP. Afterwards it will restart your tablet again. After the OS loads you should be rooted.

===================================

This is the process I took with my daughters tablets after the OTA to 4.1 was performed. I loaded TWRP via ADB/Fastboot via Linux/Ubuntu ( I like to perform the loading this way ). Went into recovery and performed a full backup before anything was modified. After, I rebooted to the OS and before it rebooted I was asked to root the tablet, so I did. I then rebooted to the OS, set up the tablet once again, and updated the SuperSU app. Afterwards all was done, I went in and deleted some apps in the "system/" folder to also make room for BusyBox and then began to load all my daughters apps again. Then I set up a new Gmail accounts for both of them as well.

Please help

Everything been going perfect until today

I bought an app from amazon in daddy mode but when going back into nabi mode it repeatedly says nabi mode has stopped working and nothing can be done

Rebooting doesnt fix it

Rebooting in daddy mode works and all apps are there all link2sd fine and appears great....but then going into nabi mode has repeated stopped working again.

Ejecting the sd makes all boot fine but no apps

So it works in daddy but crashes in nabi

So it makes me think the sd and its files are fine but nabi mode cant see or mount the sd properly even though daddy mode can.

Do i need to blank the nabi to factory settings, re root then format the sd card and re download ALL apps or is there anything else i can do quicker?

Please help
[Fuhu Nabi 2] Bait-Fish:
That's territory I haven't been in. My first thought is to uninstall that last app. Is one of the partitions maxed out?
[Fuhu Nabi 2] alexbobspoons:
None of the partitions were maxed out and uninstalling the last app didnt help anything sadly.

I did a factory reset and then installed link2sd and did a rebuild thingy and it seemed to see all the apps still on the sd card, yay, but then after setting up my nabi as it was before, it suddenly at the last minute started doing it again.

So I decided to do a factory reset again, and this time start with a fresh sd card and install all from sscratch.

Sadly, app-zone will not let me install ANYTHING that I have bought because it want the new version of app zone, which requires the OTA update.

So I either need to try the OTA update and hope it doesnt brake and bust my rooting, or I have to loose about £200 worth of apps sat in the nabi store and try and find out what they were and buy them all again from google/amazon.

I am really hating fuhu/nabi right now. Their systems are so convoluted and my son relies on this so much. Changing the app store for new purchases is ok, but stopping access to all my previous ones is pretty much theft.

So disheartened

Thanks for advice anyway
[Fuhu Nabi 2] Bait-Fish:
It's probably too late now, but if you had had backed everything up... Can you restore what you had in TWRP, a previous backup with all the Fuhu apps intact?
[Fuhu Nabi 2] alexbobspoons:
Hi Baitfish

Sadly, when I very first rooted my nabi, I had thought that the nabilab was producing a stock backup at the time, yet at a later date when I needed it, the folder was empty, so I dont actually have a stock backup of my tablet, by that time it was too late.

So the only backups I have are rooted versions.

At the moment I am looking into using Titanium Backup (new territory for me) to try and solve this problem (I have posted some questions in the main nabi root gapps thread)

My idea at present is:

Use the older cracked-screen nabi to use link2sd to see all the apps (including the missing nabi-store apps) on the tablet.

Then

Manually delete all the apps I have managed to reinstall to the new nabi from amazon/google-play

Then

The old cracked tablet will effectively only have my missing nabi-store apps on it

Then

Use Titanium backup to do a backup-all-apps process on it, thus creating a directory of my missing nabi-store apps

Then

Use my pc to transfer the titanium backup folder from sdcard to newly bought sdcard that is now in newest nabi

Then

Use newest nabi with titanium backup to do a "restore all missing apps"

Then

Hopefully, all my missing nabi-store apps will have installed onto my newer nabi and thus the missing £300 of apps are restored hurray.

I worry that the fact my apps are all link2sd'd may cause issues with the process either backing up or restoring (hope not)

I also hope that the resotred apps done need to connect through nabi-store to verify the purchase somehow.

I also plan on not restoring the "data" aspect as I worry this would complicate matters and I think this gets recreated/redownloaded by the APK if it is not clearly present when the APK runs (am I right?)

Gosh I am such am uneducated simpleton at this, feel out of my depth but I still need to sort this for my little boy.

Thanks for your help and any more advice much appreciated

[Fuhu Nabi 2] Snoshrk:
I use Link2SD and TitainiumBackup on both my Samsung Galaxy S (Epic4G) and my son's Nabi 2. TiBkup in this scenario is not as straight forward as it was on my deceased Nexus7 where you could just have TiBkup make a flashable zip of your backed up apps & flash it from recovery.

I use the procedure here http://androidforums.com/optimus-v-all-things-root/495101-link2sd-tutorial-fresh-wipe.html as a guide (pretty much the step by step instructions part after step 9).

Make sure to have the APKs for Link2SD and Titainium Backup up on the SD card prior to doing the restore.

After the clean install (root etc)

Install TiBkup from the apk

install Link2SD

Select SD partition in L2SD

Select AutoLink in L2SD

Run TiBkup Restore missing apps & data

**If you have the Free version you will have to restore each app manually

**If you have the paid version the Batch restore will restore all the missing apps.

*****If you are like me and have lots and lots of apps...the internal storage could fill up before the apps get linked to the SD card,

********solution: only restore 5/6 apps at a time

Check L2SD to make sure everything linked properly.

Win!

Luck

[Fuhu Nabi 2] alexbobspoons:
Thanks I did that and it all worked with all app back on the tablet which was great.

Downside is that just as I finished, the nabi mode started breaking again. All working fine in parent mode. So I uninstalled 5 random apps and nabi mode fine. Reinstalled and nabi mode broken again. Uninstall 5 different apps and fixed again.

So even though I have plenty of space on internal (2gb) and my sd card (9gb) it seems that too many apps (or maybe too many linked apps) breaks nabi mode but is fine in daddy mode.

Maybe nabi mode takes extra memory and maybe link2sd is taking memory remembering all the links I just don't know. I can't think of many scenarios where just a few less apps breaks nabi mode when daddy mode is fine.

I'm also not sure if it's size of app or number of apps

I have 380 apps linked

So at the moment I have a few uninstalled and things are ok. But when son wants another new app we will have a problem.

Solutions:

1

We have a one-in one-out policy on apps. Which isn't great as it could upset my son and he has no way to tell us which app he would like back

2

We let him have the tablet in daddy mode and use "application protect" to password any parent apps like settings, browser, play store etc

3

We freeze nabi mode using titanium backup and then try find a similar looking kids launcher as a replacement on google play store.

Not fully sure which to go for yet.

Wish I knew why extra apps busts nabi mode.

Cheers

[Fuhu Nabi 2] Snoshrk:
:eek: 380 apps :eek:

#3 Before the Nabi 2, ny son had a CM7 NookColor that I used KidsPlace parental control. Worked pretty good.

Sucks that Nabi Mode is breaking. :(

Sno
[Fuhu Nabi 2] alexbobspoons:
Hi Thanks yes 380 apps. They are all pretty small apps, like peg-puzzle jigsaws, but he has had the tablet for 15 months now and does like new apps often. As he has autism, he does notice if some go missing, and he cannot tell us which app he has noticed that he wants back, so its important to us to try and keep as many apps installed as possible.

That kid launcher looks very good thank you for that :)

I am still wondering if there is any/much benefit to a kid launcher rather than just using parent mode with all crucial apps blocked by "application protect"

Worried that another kid launcher would just add extra load on the tablet like nabi-mode may have done. Wondering if parent-mode locked down with app-protect is the simplest solution that has less to go wrong.

Not sure yet

Thanks

TWRP

Is there a way to install TWRP on the nabi via sd card OR can it be installed via fastboot? I can't get any of my recovery files to show up on sd card when I go into recovery. Thanks
[Fuhu Nabi 2] Bait-Fish:
Maybe Nabi Lab in this thread. I forget at the moment.
[Fuhu Nabi 2] aicjofs:
Fastboot is the easiest. I guess if you have root you can dd it off the sdcard in Android, or ADB shell.

Make sure to use JB or ICS TWRP depending on whats on your Nabi.
[Fuhu Nabi 2] Snoshrk:
Hey great news...Link2SD updated and now links data files too! :highfive:

Now to figure out how to automatically link the data portions of the previously linked apps....:fingers-crossed:

EDIT: Crap...Reading the FAQ I see that this only works on non-FAT partitions....unfortunately I had to use FAT as our kernel doesn't seem to support ext
[Fuhu Nabi 2] alexbobspoons:
Thanks for that, this would have solved my space problem fully, if it wasnt for the fact that the nabi-mode breaks if I have more than 380 apps on it so sadly I have plenty of space but stll restricted to a set number of apps.

Thanks for your post though its much appreciated as I am still thinking of doing away with nabi-mode and just giving my son the tabet in parent mode (with crucial apps locked down using application-protect and passwords). If I do decide to go for that, then I will use the updated link2sd to clear all the space on the nabi and have it all linked onto the sd card.

Thanks

Alex
[Fuhu Nabi 2] Snoshrk:
Are you using a 2nd partition with a filesystem other than FAT? :confused: If so, what kernel are you using?

:crying: My good news above was predicated on an ext# 2nd partition.... :crying:
[Fuhu Nabi 2] alexbobspoons:
My sd card has two partitions both primary. The first one is fat32 I think (not sure) but the second one (where link2sd links to) is an ext2

Im not sure how to find out what kernel I am on, if you can let me know how I will try and check for you.

It is the uk version on nabi2 though if that affects anything

Alex
[Fuhu Nabi 2] SpirosRonto:
Thanks! Imma try those.
[Fuhu Nabi 2] Snoshrk:
Lucky you! It should work for you then...I was in a rush to get the Nabi back to my son so I defaulted to FAT32 for the Link2SD partition when the ext4 didn't work...

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] triton302:
I have tried a lot of the ICS roms before the official JB update came out, and found my favorite to be Cleanrom 3.1D. I've been trying some of the JB roms including stock, and I feel that JB was not ready for prime time. Lag in some areas, constant screen flicker on app transitions (disable hardware overlays didn't work), the drop down menu slow with numerous notifications, etc... just not happy with it. I keep going back to ICS, much more stable IMO.

Anyone else in the same boat? Also, is it safe to revert back to an ICS rom with the VRBLK3 baseband, or should I ODIN back to factory specs?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] prenedo:
Its safe to go back, but haven't heard or had any issues with JB. Just an enhanced TW experience (but I get it). Your good to flash back though. Just wipe data/cache/dalvik

Hi Guys,

Recently upgraded from a SGS2 to a SGS3, i ran Paranoid android on my SGS2 for a few months and liked it so as soon as i got my SGS3 i rooted and flashed Paranoid, its been great, but ive just realised ive got an issue, ive not used by Data connection up until now (its been connected by wifi)

Basically my data connection is pants, it flicks between 3G and E but in reality the speeds arent even E worthy

O2 UK

Paranoid Android

Baseband is 19300BWDLI1

RIL was 19300XXDLIB

ive downloaded Getril and tried a few others but none of them seem to help, Any ideas i can try? or any RIL's that people can think of
[Galaxy S III General] muppetmania:
Why do you assume the RIL is at fault here? Have you diagnosed that to be the actual problem or is it a wild stab in the dark?

Are you able to make calls OK? If so then your RIL is most likely fine. More likely you have flashed the wrong modem that doesn't support all O2s frequencies.

Have you checked you have the right APN setup for O2 UK?

Worst case, go back to stock and test that, to see if it really is something to do with the ROM you're using. I doubt that it is though
[Galaxy S III General] AndrewJB88:
Installed Stock back and its still as bad :(

Phone calls and signal is fine its just the data thats no good
[Galaxy S III General] muppetmania:
You probably want to talk to O2 then. Either they're having problems or the phone has faulty hardware.

- muppet.
[Galaxy S III General] JAMIE1000UK:
My brother had this problem with a galaxy s1. And Other devices. It turned out that it was o2's lack of providing decent Internet signal on there masts. Voice and text was bang on but Internet said e on the network but was actually slower then dial up!

They are terrible when it comes to coverage on 3g.

If you ring and ask about broadband they will probably tell you that it's not available in your area.
[Galaxy S III General] Chief_Death:
Speeds get that bad only if you pass your allowed data limit.
[Galaxy S III General] JJEgan:

[Galaxy S III General] muppetmania:
Why would wiping help?

I see this suggested all the time, but no one ever states why.

AP:19300XXELL4

When connected to kies it says " your devices current firmware is not supported to update firmware via kies"

Current firmware version: PDA:LL4 / PHONE:LK1 / CSCS:LL1 (KOR) -----SURELY THAT SUGGUEST KOREA? even though i flashed the 02 firmware

my SGS2 never had this problem so loosing the will with this phone already
[Galaxy S III General] AndrewJB88:
SGS2 was perfect the other day, im on O2 unlimited so there's no data limit
[Galaxy S III General] muppetmania:
If you phone is able to make/receive calls fine - then there's nothing wrong with the handset.

Have you checked the APN is set correctly for data?

Assuming that you have checked this and it's correct, then there's probably very little you can do. Can you try your SIM in another phone and see if the data's any better?

The problem sounds like nothing to do with the phone and everything to do with your provider, O2.
[Galaxy S III General] Guest69:
+1

I'm running stock O2 UK 4.1.2

Data for me has always been painfully slow, and i mean embarrassingly bad, un-usable unless I'm stood somewhere with a great 3g signal, even then it's hardly bearable. I'm convinced it's the network and not the phone. My icon has always messed about switching from g to e to 3g to h to h+. I think I'm just in a bad area and the phone constantly switches bands trying to find the best one. It just makes mobile internet a joke most of the time.
[Galaxy S III General] JAMIE1000UK:
It is definitely the network. O2 have had the issue quite a while with this. There excuse for Me was you live in the country side. .. Oh yeah coz Leicester is in the country side. . I don't think so. . Try other sim cards and I bet your data is just fine.

Oh and the kies thing is because your csc is set to korean. Root and download csc changer fromb play store. Use BTU as csc but it does perform a wipe.

Thought i would just update this thread now

O2 phoned me last night insisting that it was a problem with the "Settings" and i hadn't turned on 3G etc.. anyway an hour call going through every setting possible and they have given up.

Used a Sim card adapter and put my sim card back into my SGS2 and internet is perfect again... so O2 are sending me out a new SGS3 tomorrow to test that. hopefully it will work and then i can get rid of the Standard O2 Firmware because its awful

Sounds like the IMEI of your phone got corrupt.

Boot it up and type *#06# into the dialer. That'll show your IMEI number. Is it the same as the one on the sticker under the phone's battery?

NOTE: Don't tell us your IMEI! Just if they match. If they _don't_ match, post the one shown by *#06# - not the one under the sticker

Jelly Bean let alone ICS is not really going to work on our hardware. The reason it says that version is simply a change to a system file (dont do this unless you know what it is) called build.prop.

The system space needed even for a completly stripped (but usable) ICS install would be more rom space than we have so I doubt it will work. Imo
