S-Off is not an option unless you are an expert. AAHK, the tool used to get it, was retired earlier this week. Root and custom ROMs are still possible with an unlocked bootloader, but getting S-Off is no longer a simple procedure.

cool, so which way

I don't mind getting dirty - but is gfreev.2 alright to roll with given my kernel? it worked the first time, in the kit, but I don't need the whole ACE, just need to smack the sec back out of the device :) if you have input on the compatibility of gfree v.2 given the updated kernel, please

In case it reboots, download the file from this link and put it in root of your SD Card and boot into bootloader, it will ask for upgrade, so accept by pressing volume up.

i got the same problem. with officiall stock rom, 1 minute my fone restart 10 times. i try with a lot roms, but the fone still turn off automatically.

i will try the solution you mention above.
[HTC Sensation] Arachnosoft:
Hi,

I was having the same problem, I found out that it was a bad battery state reading problem, that means that the phone is saying the battery is 60% or 30% but in fact the REAL battery state is under 5% and the phone shut down unexpectedly. on the other hand, that could be a bad contact between the phone battery connectors and the Battery, so the phone will demand lotta voltage and when the battery couldn't provide such power you'll lose charge and to prevent the phone from being damaged it will automatically shut down.

So, as they said above, try to put some paper at the top right corner of the battery, it will push it down to have a good contact.

hope that might help...

I solved the problem ! I tied a piece of paper and put it under the battery , and downloaded a battery calibration app from the play store !

You may partition SD with CWM (Clockworkmod Recovery). Make primary partition FAT32 and primary partition ext2, 3 or 4. The best ext4.

You may SD partition and with MiniTool Partition Wizard Home Edition. Download and install this application.

Does this method allow you to purchase and.or download apps from the Google Play store or is it just installing the Google Apps that have been known to work on the Nabi (sans purchasing apps from Play)?

This topic may be dead but I just ran this script for my niece's Nabi 2 to get some better games for her and everything worked except for the Gapps. Flashed 3 times using the script and once using the custom recovery(flashed Gapps.zip). Can someone please help?

I followed all the instructions.
[Fuhu Nabi 2] mehtuus:
I do not have access to the original Nabi, so I cannot confirm whether it will work or not. Most likely it would not work. As for the parent/nabi mode, YES. The process used in this script does not in any way delete or remove your data or Nabi 2 system information. It only adds ROOT and Google apps. Once you have root you could remove whatever you want.
[Fuhu Nabi 2] mehtuus:
This topic is not dead, I've just been unusually busy this year.

Have you tried wiping the cache/dalvik before flashing GApps? Please post back with some information about your Nabi 2. What is your Nabi kernal #? Have you verified that root is functioning correctly? Is there enough free space available on your Nabi 2 to allow installation of GApps? Is there anything else that you have attempted but did not list above?
[Fuhu Nabi 2] SlimMan:
Firstly thanks for the reply. Secondly the Nabi in question just received a update in the software and while I was under the impression that it was a nabi one the software clearly showed that the file was Nabi2 update. So with that being said, does this root installer still work on the latest update?
[Fuhu Nabi 2] mehtuus:
With the latest update (2.1), there seems to be some changes in the Nabi2 that prevent the Google apps from properly loading. Everything else seems to work fine (meaning your Nabi2 still gets rooted). There are some custom rom's in the wiki that include root and gapps.

I am looking into a fix regarding this. I have a possible work around, but it requires manually moving some files. Although, I have not tested it yet so it may not work.
[Fuhu Nabi 2] majedalanni:

Are you using Nabi2 kernal 2.1.27? Please post a link to where you got your Gapps so that I can take a look.
[Fuhu Nabi 2] majedalanni:
Gapp is from your software, please check attached file for version
[Fuhu Nabi 2] mehtuus:
Sorry, I should have been more clear. I meant the "play store" that you said that you installed from the "everything nabi" website. I need the link to there, so that I can see what it is that you installed. If they have more than one version listed there, then I need to know which one you downloaded and installed.

You have Nabi2 Product version 2.1-release-keys

I noticed from your screenshot that the Nabi2 has a new entry: Edition NABI2-NV7A-US which does not exist yet on the one that I have here (which is much older).

Have you done anything to verify that you have properly functioning root on the Nabi2?

I remember that screen cover. A little window cleaner, and those white lines come right off. I actually used that as the screen protector for a while. Until I got an actual screen protector that fit the entire screen completely.
[Fuhu Nabi 2] aicjofs:
Simple answer is the system partition is full. Gapps and full 2.1.27 don't fit. Have to delete something to have gapps fit on /system. I discuss a bit of it here:

root install not working

I've tried this a number of times, but root never fully takes.

TWRP is installed, and I can reboot to recovery.

It copies the rooted ROM (although it doesn't take very long) and reboots to TWRP.

I select Install, select root.zip, swipe to confirm...

When I select Reboot System, it says "your device does not appear to be rooted. Install SuperSU now? This will root your device." I swipe to install... it flashes quickly back to what looks like the previous screen, then reboots almost immediately. When I get in... no root.

Any thoughts?

Model: NABI2-NV7A

Build: IMM76L
[Fuhu Nabi 2] mehtuus:
I have attached the original "root.zip" file. Replace the one you have with this one. You will find it here /files/root.zip. Let us know what happens.
[Fuhu Nabi 2] blehke:
This file was only 668K vs. 8.2M - is that right?

I went ahead and tried - didn't make any difference. I placed it in the files folder and did it through the tool, and also manually placed it on the device and flashed through recovery. The script says it should only take "a couple of minutes" - mine finishes in ~1 second.

---------- Post added at 04:39 PM ---------- Previous post was at 04:35 PM ----------

Just looking in the original root.zip - I did get Root Checker, and Ad Blocker. I don't see anything called Solid Explorer. There is a SuperSU Install, but running it says "SuperSU's binary is not present, this is a fatal error!"
[Fuhu Nabi 2] aicjofs:
You sound like you're stuck in some odd loop. Where TWRP didn't think you installed root the first time,(TWRP and the ROOT program have 2 different installs) and now things are out of sync somehow.

Boot in TWRP.

Go to "Mount" tab. Then put an X in "system"

Go to "Advanced tab, and file manager.

Navigate to /system/xbin then select su and then select delete. swipe(pay attention to what it says it's going to delete)

Navigate to /system/app then select superuser.apk and then select delete. swipe

now exit TWRP and it will ask if you want to install superuser. Install it.

Reboot immediately back to TWRP, and exit again and it shoudn't ask to install.

Now see what happens in Android.

root, no gapps

That took care of root - thanks!

Now it seems like I may have a similar problem with gapps? The process takes literally about 2 seconds. Here's what's on the screen:

When I boot into the system, I don't see anything - was expecting the normal Google apps - at least Play store?
[Fuhu Nabi 2] aicjofs:
What software version for the Nabi? v2.1? If so it doesn't have enough room for gapps. You need to delete something, which this program gives you the option to delete the Wings app. Then gapps will install. If you want to keep wings then you'll have to pick something else to delete. If it's version 1.9 or 2.0 then I'm not sure.
[Fuhu Nabi 2] blehke:
all good!

I somehow missed that part. I knew saw the option and read about it... just thought for some reason that if I chose to install gapps, it would take care of everything. Oops. Weekend-itis?

Thanks!
[Fuhu Nabi 2] mehtuus:
Did you use the original or beta root.zip file when you successfully rooted your Nabi 2?

The only difference between the original and beta root.zip files, is that the beta includes the apk for a root checker, an adblocker, and a (very good) file manager that can run as root. There you have the difference in file size. While looking into this, I see that I need to update part of the installer script inside both zip's to include the apk's. I knew I was up too late... :eek: However, since RL issues at the moment are keeping me short on time, I will regress those two files and upload beta2 shortly. I will consider including them in a future update (space permitting).

I am making an educated guess that you don't have enough space in your /system partition (if you are running v2.1 Nabi2). Look in the same place that you found the "Build number" for your Nabi, look for the "Product version" and let us know what it says.

It occurred to me that I did not consider the uncompressed size of all the files inside the zip's, including the four I added. After looking at it I see that it is really pushing it close, and most likely just doesn't leave enough room to properly process. This just adds weight to the need for the beta 2 update.
[Fuhu Nabi 2] aicjofs:
You should play around with moving the apk's(like you did for backing up) but then putting a symlink to that location(off system) and see what happens.

adb shell mkdir /data/wings

set permission for wings directory(I forget the permissions)

adb shell cp -R /vendor/app/xxxxWings.apk /data/wings/xxxxWings.apk

adb shell ln -s /data/wings/xxxxWings.apk /vendor/app/xxxxWings.apk

See if people can keep wings. I will eventually get to trying it but all my free time has been playing with nvflash.
[Fuhu Nabi 2] mehtuus:
Good idea, I will take a look at it when I can break away. I am about to move into a new place, so it may be a bit before I have the chance to do any sort of proper testing.
[Fuhu Nabi 2] Waleslie:
I seem to be having a similar problem with one of my Nabi 2s...

TWRP 2.6.1.0 is up and running. I've installed a stock, unrooted 2.1.27 rom, which seems to function normally.

Then, I install the basic original jmztaylor root.zip file (the 668kb one).

TWRP tells me it wants to install root. Whether I let it or not, the device is not rooted.

I tried following your directions above... I don't seem to have /system/xbin/su to delete.

/system/app/superuser.apk is present, and I delete that.

There is also a /supersu directory present. (which I've tried deleting or not)

I let TWRP attempt to root, reboot into TWRP and it seems to think I'm rooted, however booting into Android gives no super user application or root.

In one of my many iteration attempts, I actually had /system/xbin/su present, but /system/app/superuser.apk was not.

Currently, both files (as well as the /supersu directory) are present, but still no go...

I had no problems rooting the earlier versions, so I'm pretty much baffled.

Also, just out of curiosity, why do we need to install "root.zip" if TWRP is supposedly able to root the device?
[Fuhu Nabi 2] aicjofs:
I can't seem to recreate what you are experiencing "exactly" but I can cause a similar situation. It has something to do with the fact that there is the "original jmz" root, a root in 2.5 or 2.6, and a root in 2.6.1 or something of that nature. Basically there are 3 different versions and some how they don't like to be copied over each other. The other possibility is that as of 2.6.1 the su has been updated for Android 4.3+, that runs a daemonsu binary, not suppose to effect older version like the Nabi but maybe it is creating some sort of havoc when combined with "original" su version.

Just FYI the /supersu directory is in the ramdisk for TWRP it's where TWRP get's the files when it attempts to install root

You are correct. Since TWRP roots automatically since at least 2.5 there really is no need for the root.zip. In fact with 2 different reports it seems to be creating an issue we might want to look into changing how we do things.

I'm not sure how to tell you to get out of the loop if what I said previously didn't work. I guess if you have a stock 2.1.27 you said, reflash, and just use TWRP and see what happens.
[Fuhu Nabi 2] Waleslie:
Root via TWRP 2.6.1.0 or some other version?

Obviously others have rooted 2.1.27, so I don't get why this tablet is acting differently.
[Fuhu Nabi 2] aicjofs:
2.6.1.0

A lot of people just did the OTA update zip I made which kept root so there was no need to re root would be my guess.
[Fuhu Nabi 2] Waleslie:
Okay. I started over.

I reflashed the stock2127 rom. Booted up to android and let the Nabi do all it's first run initializations.

Then installed TWRP 2.6.1.0.

I told it to reboot into recovery. It complained about no root and I allowed it to install root.

In TWRP I mounted the system and looked around.

\system\xbin\su was present

\system\app\Superuser.apk was NOT present

I told it to reboot into recovery again. This time it complained that it wanted to fix permissions, which I allowed it to do.

After the reboot, I looked around again, but nothing seemed different.

I tried to copy Superuser.apk from \supersu to \system\app but it tells me that the operation failed.

So... I'm not sure what to try next.
[Fuhu Nabi 2] aicjofs:
Where did you get this stock 2.1.27? Sure it doesn't have anything extra on there? Is your system partition full? Sounds like you are out of room.

adb shell df
[Fuhu Nabi 2] Waleslie:
Hm... Right you are. 503M with 0 K free.

I did a little searching, and, interestingly enough, I got the rom from you.

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1905674&page=165 Post #1647

Maybe I should just go back to 1.9.37 and let it OTA update, then see what happens?
[Fuhu Nabi 2] aicjofs:
Yeah that's what it sounded like.

I thought that was mine judging by how you called the file. Doesn't make sense though. The image is 498, shouldn't have 503. I can't figure it out since you said you just did root which is less then a MB. Should have space left.

How big is system.ext4.win? 486 MB (509,703,680 bytes) ~498000KB
