I rooted with kingroot, but system update does not install gapps. It says success, but they are just not there.

---------- Post added 10th December 2016 at 12:00 AM ---------- Previous post was 9th December 2016 at 11:34 PM ----------

Nubia is not entering fastboot mode, that is why I cannot install TWRP. I reboots with "adb reboot bootloader" but it just gets stuck on nubia logo forever. Fastboot devices is not showing any devices, which means fastboot is not working.
[ZTE Z7, Z7 Max, Z7 Mini] zdravke:
Anyone running 3.88 with gapps?
[ZTE Z7, Z7 Max, Z7 Mini] bhumla:
Hi, Yes I managed to do just that. I believe you have already updated it to 3.88.

Now if you have a custom recovery, just go to the Gapps website: Select ARM, 5.1 and micro. Download it. Simply flash it through TWRP and it'd work like a charm.
[ZTE Z7, Z7 Max, Z7 Mini] Leclerck:
I have another problem, i cannot download 3.88. Is there any other link for download except from nubia.
[ZTE Z7, Z7 Max, Z7 Mini] bhumla:
Since I am a new user, i can not post link. but see the post 339 on androidiani website forum with the given title or just copy paste the title : [ROM] Nubia Z7 NX506J Stock Lollipop + Lang Pack by BB72
[ZTE Z7, Z7 Max, Z7 Mini] bhumla:
by the way, in my opinion, v 2.05 is much better than 3.88
[ZTE Z7, Z7 Max, Z7 Mini] Leclerck:
Ok, tnx
[ZTE Z7, Z7 Max, Z7 Mini] zdravke:
I don't have custom recovery, it refuses to install. No errors, just not there.
[ZTE Z7, Z7 Max, Z7 Mini] bhumla:
I have managed to find an easier version to install custom recovery and then the Google apps. Did it successfully.

While you are at any version before 2.05. Do the following:

1. download and run the apk of Kingroot on your phone.

2. run kingroot and wait until it roots your phone

3. Run the apk of Flashify

4. Install the recovery image provided in the previous post (important thing here is to install recovery image, not the bootloader image, it can brick you phone)

5. One recovery is installed, restart your phone or turn it off and restart by pressing volume up and power buttons simultaneously (here it could happen that you will stuck at the nubia logo for everal minutes (5-15), but be patient, the TWRP recovery will open. It will take some time but once you see that the screen is off, just press the power button and there it will be, TWRP recovery.

6. In TWRP, mount your storage and copy the official rom (e.g. v2.05 or 3.88, I tried with both) and flash it.

7. After flashing turn on the phone, first start will be longer as usual. Interesting thing here is that your phone is unrooted again (no kingroot anymore, no bloatware) after this process with TWRP instead of custom recovery.

8. Download Gapps, (v2.05 of Nubia update is Android 5.0, and V3.88 is Android 5.1. Only download the mini version of Gappa, because you wont be able to flash the larger versions due to the memory restrictions)

9. After flashing Gapps. Start your phone and that is all.

Please let me know if you have any questions.
[ZTE Z7, Z7 Max, Z7 Mini] zdravke:
I also tried kingroot and flashify, twrp manager even lists twrp as installed, but I keep booting into stock recovery. I guess the only way is to go back to 2.0.5 if that's possible at all.

Unless someone managed to install custom recovery on top of 3.88 in some magical way.
[ZTE Z7, Z7 Max, Z7 Mini] bhumla:
In that case I suggest you to flash 3.88 first, then use kingroot, and then flashify, then TWRP, re-flash 3.88 through TWRP and Gapps. It should work then.
[ZTE Z7, Z7 Max, Z7 Mini] TheNextSylvester:
I also have a problem with TWRP not showing up. It just waits but if I start touching screen, it restarts or shuts down completely. So it does seem like it is responding to touch input, but doesn't display anything. Does anyone have an idea how to get around this?
[ZTE Z7, Z7 Max, Z7 Mini] bhumla:
It will show up at some point. Do not touch the screen or anything, just wait until the nubia logo disappears and screen turns off. Then briefly press the power button and you should be in TWRP.
[ZTE Z7, Z7 Max, Z7 Mini] Spint0:
Hi,

Since I don't have a pc ate home (only mac) I've been delaying to update my Nubia Z7 Nx506j for quite some time now, yesterday I browsing the forum and saw you're small tutorial on how to flash without the need of a pc and since I was bored I gave it a shot, and It ran smoothly until I rebooted and had the following problems:

1st: No internal sdcard only shows 8GB.

2nd: Can't reboot into recovery mode anymore, so can't install Gapps.

Anyone with the same problem? Would really appreciate some help.

I'm a noobie in the android world :eek::silly:

Cheers,
[ZTE Z7, Z7 Max, Z7 Mini] GodOfPsychos:
thanks thanks thanks ohhhh man really. im not overreacting, i am just really happy i found this thread. i wanted to update to the latest version as well but i got an error everytime i tried to flash it.

now i know why. and thanks to you i have updated it to 2.02. successfully.

i will go and update to 2.03 and so on. really dude, thank you for uploading all the stuff i and probably many other ppl needed. i wish i could give u more than just 1 thanks with the button :D
[ZTE Z7, Z7 Max, Z7 Mini] bhumla:
if you have flashed twrp, the boot in recovery takes significantly long, but it does enter the recovery.
[ZTE Z7, Z7 Max, Z7 Mini] GodOfPsychos:
Quick tip for the long boot time of TWRP.

In TWRP go to settings and and set the timer for standby to 15 seconds (default is 300 idk why) and after that you can get into TWRP much much faster instead of waiting 5 minutes everytime.

Of course it would be much better if someone could fix TWRP to show up instantly instead of waiting for TWRP to go into standby in background just to wake it up via powerbutton again.

And to stop TWRP being overwritten by stock recovery after phone boots up, just rename or delete the file "recovery-from-boot.p" inside the system folder
[ZTE Z7, Z7 Max, Z7 Mini] iggarpe:
Nice tip. I didn't know that was configurable in TWRP. I doubt someone will take the time to fix TWRP give this phone is clearly EOL. BTW, at ~120€ I got it, with a 801, 2K screen and a superb camera, it's a steal. Granted it's not the slimmest or the latest model, but who cares.
[ZTE Z7, Z7 Max, Z7 Mini] not_noober_than_me...:
Hi everyone, I installed v3.88 sucessfully with gapps working without any major issue, but AIDA64 says, in the battery tab, capacity (reported by android) 2300mAh and right after, capacity (from database) 3000mAh. Anyone knows whats going on? Other than that I did not notice any anomaly.
[ZTE Z7, Z7 Max, Z7 Mini] iggarpe:
A quick tip: I wasn't getting Whatsapp notifications. They'd come in all at the same time when opening Whatsapp. Turns out by default Nubia turns off application autostart for all applications. To make things worse, this setting is not accessible from the normal Android settings menu. You can find it in neoSafe.
[Fire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] luizat2011:
I have currently CM12.1 rom installed on the Fire thanks to ggow and everyone else who made is possible and loving it. The default font seems ok because of the low res display. Has anybody any font suggestions for better font readability (like better hinting or something). I know the display is kind of weird on this one, it appears that it squezzes the display in vertical mode and expands it on the landscape mode.
[Fire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Pond-life:
Only seen people mention changing the dpi to get it to look better, hadn't thought about simply changing fonts.
[Fire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] t3chwizard:
I tried Segoe UI Semilight (Don't hate on me just because it is Microsoft related, Segoe is my favorite font ever.), but it was very skewed and not clear at all. I have to agree with you that the default font is the best for it in all honesty.
[Fire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nd4spdviper:
i'd stick to chaging the dpi setting, it will look less as a tablet and more like a phone but the overall experience es better. and let's be honest, with 1024x600 it's better this way. i currently have mine set to 200dpi

Hi,

I try to connect my samsung wifi matisse 10.1, with the last ROM BlissPop installed, to an existing (and confirmed that works well) ad-hoc wifi. I don't want to make a hotspot from the tablet: this feature works perfectly. The system identifies the network as ad-hoc and asks for the WEP (128 ASCII) pass ... but after several times disconnects. This is the logcat from adb:

are you sure you entered the ascii passphrase and not the hexed one? please try to connect to an open or wpa protected adhoc network.
[Galaxy Tab 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] oscarcastell:
Yes, I used the ascii password ... but you can see in this picture (Opss sorry, I cannot input outside links) that the input of the passphrase is not clear ... I wanted to understand what type of passphrasse I must write in the inputtext Password when the wifi manager asks for it. In the other hand, I try to make this connection without password and with a WPA2 security ... the problem persist.

Thanks a lot by your answer ...
[Galaxy Tab 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sub77:
i dont my tab atm, so i can not make some tests, but i remember an option in wpa_supplicant.conf - something about p2p_disabled or similar, maybe you can compare the conf with a wpa_supplicant.conf of a device which is connecting to adhocs.

is there a log of the adhoc hosting device?

btw. images can be uploaded as attachments.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mlun:
I am surprised how slow Tibu is to upload backups to Dropbox. I have 1,2 GB of data, and this is going to take 1½-2 days to upload (around 30 MB per hour). Have changed Dropbox so there is unlimited upload speed.

Is this due to some error/setting in Tibu or what is causing this? Make the whole product pretty useless I would say - who can wait so long time for a backup and restore?

New version available!

See: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=437726

Please comment there.

Older version:

EDIT: RC-2 is available

I've just uploaded version 1.0.rc-1 of the A2DP plugin. It can be downloaded and used as freeware (0 cost) from http://teksoftco.com/index.php?section=freeware , or find it below attached to this message, including a short usage guide.

New in this release (as many users requested):

-signal indicator

-3 modes for headset: OK, Off, Err

-settings panel added

-Handle Bluetooth option

-Execute File after start option

-applet added in start->settings->system to start settings

-a2dp.exe included in the package, that with parameters: a2dp.exe -bluetooth:on|off -a2dp:on|off or a2dp.exe -bluetooth:1|0 -a2dp:1|0

--------------------------

The devices that support A2DP (most wm6.0 bluetooth devices), come with 2 audio drivers installed:

1) The "Audio Output" Driver (supported since ppc 2002)

2) The "Bluetooth Advanced Audio Output" Driver, that is responsible of sending audio data over a L2CAP Bluetooth connection, as per A2DP protocol

When the user connects a Stereo A2DP headset, and selects the "Wireless Stereo" profile, the Bluetooth Adv. Audio Output becomes the nr. 1 audio output route, and is indexed as the First audio driver. Any application will output sound by using that driver.

The problem is that sometimes we are already listening to audio in the device's speakers, and then suddenly we want to switch the output to our a2dp headsets - this is sometimes problematic, as the First audio driver changes from "Audio Output" to "Bluetooth Adv. Audio Output" and the applications currently playing audio need to be restarted.

For such issues, I have provided a tool, as freeware, that will install as a today plugin and offer the user the possibility of instantly switching the audio between Device Speaker and A2DP Stereo Headset.

It is designed for WM6.0, Microsoft Bluetooth stack, please download it and let me know how it works for you. There are some more modifications that will be done, so this is only Beta-1

The CAB installer and instructions are in the ZIP attached.

(tested on ultimate 8150/wm6.0 and eten m600+/wm5.0, the gfx was made for vga but works on qvga too)

just installed the version on the teksoftco site.

first impressions -huge thank you; just what i've been looking for.

however i do have a wish and an observation

1. wish: when you tap on the bt symbol, can it turn on/off the bluetooth like on the commanger.

2 headset symbol seems to be always reading ok, even if headset off or bt turned off.

thanks

another thought

any chance you can speak to Sleuth255

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=284974&highlight=a2dp+cutting

he has a fix for the skipping when using a2dp.

this could be an option to enable/disable the fix when selecting the connect/stop on the today screen.

the advantage being when you disconnect you reduce the power drain.

(the fix uses a contiual loop which means the processor is working all the time)

thanks

1 prob i have: when select "handle bluethooth automatically" and select a prog to start i.e mortplayer then at the first tap on "play" BT switchs on and mortplayer start. but the headphones are not set to wireless!

i have to minimize the mortplaye and click "play" again to set the headphone to wireless.

maybe a delay would help a little ???

[Galaxy Tab 2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Galaxydude1:
Hi guys,

Apologies first of all as I'm sure this has been asked over and over again but I'm still struggling to find a concrete route/guide to running custom roms starting from a stock device (Tab 2 10" P5110 JB 4.2.2).

As far as I understood I should do the following:

1. Install CF-Autoroot - However on CF website I read:

If you have locked bootloaders, flashing one of these will probably brick your device - with the exception of Nexus devices, which will usually automatically "OEM unlock" and wipe your data !

Do I need to worry about the above or can I proceed to install the CF-autoroot via Odin?

2. Install custom recovery as above method leaves with stock recovery - Question here is what is the best way to proceed at this point? Install recovery via rom manager or another method (PC Odin etc) ?

3. Install custom rom and enjoy and improved device :)

Please if someone could clarify the steps I need to take (exact file versions etc) from a fully stock 10" Tab 2 running 4.2.2 it would be greatly appreciated. Or link me to what I'm after in case I've missed this!

All the best,

GalaxyDude

(Happy Christmas all!)
[Galaxy Tab 2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] billysam:
1st, it will only root your mobile, if your purpose is to stay on stock and just delete the bloat wares. and run modded apps. you're good to go

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1957165

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2203309

just check you're using the file meant for your device only. this thread has a detailed view. and no, its safe as long as you're using the files meant exactly for your device.

2nd installing a custom recovery is the first choice and the best and smartest thing to do, cause if after rooting you did something stupid with the system files, then all your data might be lost, custom recovery helps you keep complete nandroid backup of your device which means almost everything is backed up (except media and external memory card), lets you flash custom rom and in case anything goes wrong, you access the custom recovery and bam, restore your backup, and you're back at the original state. or flash your new custom rom

3. yes install a custom rom after you backup your stock factory rom.

remember taking backup at every step from here on onward is the first rule.

good luck and have fun on xda
[Galaxy Tab 2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Galaxydude1:
Hi Billysam,

Thanks for the speedy reply :)

I'm aiming to eventually run a nice custom rom but just want to get the rooting and custom firmware down first so as you mention I can do a full nandroid backup before moving on.

I had a look at the link you posted but you're right that leaves you with stock recovery which would be fine if I wasn't going to install a custom rom.

I found http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1722745

So now I've got:

Odin 3.0.7

philz_touch_5.03.7-p5110.tar.md5

Superuser-3.1.3-arm-signed.zip

Was going to install the above via Odin and then do a full backup, does that sound about right?

Cheers again! :)

Galaxydude1
[Galaxy Tab 2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] billysam:
Philz recovery is fine, but some custom roms requires twrp recovery, both are good. check which rom you're going to try and see if it says needs twrp, download that, if not philz is safe too and it's not much hard to switch.

Superuser app, you won't need unless the custom rom you're going to install doesn't have one already. most do. just get custom recovery installed, find a good custom rom, for your device, read instructions and other members who already tried it. don't rush. backup first.

small note- please click reply and then type your msg, it will quote and send me a notification as well. if you don't quote or don't hit thinks, I might not even get notified and see your msg. cheers
[Galaxy Tab 2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Galaxydude1:
No problem at all, I'd actually deleted the requote to save spam as I assumed you'd be notified auto as you'd contributed :)

Thanks for the info, on the back of what you've said I think I'll put on PhilsRecovery as I've got it downloaded for my specific model, do a full backup and then can I use Rom manager to install TWRP via the app?

Kind regards,

Galaxydude1
[Galaxy Tab 2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] billysam:
Yes, go with that. and you can change to twrp with rom manager. but most of the custom rom threads have the recoveries mentioned there and most of the time you will find updated once here on the page. check this page

http://xdaforums.com/galaxy-tab-2/10-inch-development

this is the place you will find all custom roms for your device and updated information. wherever you see P51xx , that rom works for your device as well.
[Galaxy Tab 2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Galaxydude1:
Thanks for your advice :good:

One thing I just realised though is if you have to be rooted in order to do a full nandroid backup I'll need to flash the recovery with Odin and then install the superuser file zip from recovery before the backup will work.

Am I right in thinking the above?

Cheers again.
[Galaxy Tab 2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] billysam:
Get into recovery first and try to backup if it does, you're fine, if it doesn't you can flash superuser zip inside recovery and try then backup.

it's not that risky.
