So here's the deal, I'm with AT&T and attempting to root my X10.
I've tried SuperOneClick to absolutely no avail, it looped RATC, I did the debug off/on/off method and it hung at the end. Tried it several more times with the same outcome and eventually gave up on it.
Next method is trying to sideload UniversalAndrood using the Sideload Wonder Machine.
The problem I'm getting with SWM is that it isn't recognizing my phone. The area showing List of Devices Attached is blank.
I've got the Android SDK installed, I'm running windows 7, so USB drivers shouldn't be a problem from everything I've read, but even still I've uninstalled em using USBDeview and had windows reinstall them automatically. USB debugging has been on the whole time, and I don't think it's ADB issues seeing as the SDK is fully updated.
Anyone have any ideas or suggestions? I'm tired of sitting on 1.6.

Let me clarify. I'm on 1.6 trying to update to 2.1. I'm trying to root 1.6 and can't seem to get it. It appears as though you're both directing me towards how to root on 2.1, but if I'm mistaken, please correct me.
Just download z4root, its been taken away from the market, but you should be able to find the apk via Google fairly easily.
since your on 1.6 i suppose you could try x10root, google it and download, worked for me, however im on orange in the UK

Need help installing xRecovery on XPERIA X10 Mini
Hello all,
Seems there isn't much help for newbies here :-(
I browsed all of the relevant parts of the site (I think):
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=859571
https://www.xda-developers.com/android/reboot-x10-into-xrecovery-from-os/#comments
And found these links outside xda-developers:
http://www.android-hilfe.de/root-ha...2488-xrecovery-nandroid-auf-dem-x10-mini.html
http://www.mobil-talk.de/android-fa...ecovery-nandroid-auf-dem-x10-mini-nutzen.html
I used the German-language page (http://www.mobil-talk.de/android-fa...ecovery-nandroid-auf-dem-x10-mini-nutzen.html) to install the files, as I'm too stingy too shell out for the applications people here seem to need to install a system tool on their phones...
There are a few things that confuse me greatly, however:
1) What is the version of xRecover (or xrecover-x10mini) that we are supposed to be installing on our phones
2) What is the impact of busybox on the process (current version from the Market installs as /system/xbin/busybox, not as /system/bin/busybox as xRecovery seems to want; I know the chargemon script has /system/bin/busybox hardcoded)
3) What is the correct button to press at boot time of the phone to get into the xRecover application?
I installed several versions of the software I found through this site:
xRecovery-minipro-0.1.1-beta.tar.bz2
xrecovery_signed.apk
Neither of those seems to work on my XPERIA X10 Mini, and I have tried the back, volume up and volume down buttons, and I have tried to change the event from event0 to event1.
I am just trying to install the CyanogenMod 6 ROMs on my phone and am getting very disappointed with the entire process. If and when I do get it to work, I shall attempt to write my experiences down so others might have an easier time than I had.
Despite all the groveling, I do appreciate the community's efforts to make all of this work. I hope I can do my bit to document it better or to help iron out some inconsistencies.
Regards
looks like my problem
for me installing with the flash tool worked. (so just download flash tool and klick the xrecovery button =) )
after that i could copy the new custom rom files to the sd card and install them with xrecovery.
just push the back button all the time while booting repeatly when you got xrecovery succesful installed it should work
I have been searching all morning for the answer to my issue, but evidently I am not using the correct words in my search. Either that or I am the first person to need to do this:
In an effort to try to get Netflix working on my Gtab running Vegan 5.1.1, I have been trying differing edits of the build.prop file. Since Netflix is working on my original version Droid, I have been using it as a model. All to no avail. So, last evening, fully aware that I might brick the gtab and willing to pay the price of a reflash if necessary, I copied the entire build.prop file from my Droid to my gtab and rebooted. Sure enough, won't boot.
I have backups of the original working build.prop but cannot access it by connecting my gtab to my pc through usb. I can access the files on the sdcard but cannot figure out how to get into the system folder so that I can replace the offending file with a good one. I thought that nvflash might be my friend, but after reading everything I can find on that tool it seems that it will just reflash to stock.
I can reflash my Vegan install, and may have to do so....but is it possible to just access the files in the system folder? If so, all I would have to do is to delete the current build.prop file and rename my backup file back to build.prop.
Anyone know how I can do this?
Joe
You can us ADB to push (or pull) files as well as accessing the command line on your gTab. ADB is a development tool, and is part of the Android development kit. You need to install the driver that comes with it, but first you need to edit the .INF file with a couple lines referencing the gTab. You can find additional information about ADB in other posts.
If recovery is working ok then you could reflash your ROM or craft a custom update to replace build.prop.
You could also nvflash just the system partition if you have an image for your ROM.
Lots of options.
Edit: Just looked at the Vegan 5.1.1 supplement update and it has a build.prop file in it. Reinstalling it would likely get you running again as long as you haven't made any other significant changes to the system files. It might revert a few system applications to older versions.
If you have adb set up and working, restoring your backed up build.prop would be trivial job. Let us know if you have adb working and then we can give you the commands you need to use.
As of right now, I do not have adb setup and working. Well, that's not quite true....I did set it up quite some time ago and used it on my Droid. Guess I need to reconfigure it for the gtab and then proceed from there?
Joe
Well, I resolved my issue by reflashing the VegaN rom, all is good now.

Alright, so this is going to take a bit of explaining, please bear with me.
I got this phone a couple of weeks ago, subsequently rooted it, and shortly thereafter decided upon Viper for my ROM. After playing around for a bit, I took a look at Beastmode kernel yesterday. I backed up my phone, installed the new kernel, and everything went to hell shortly thereafter. Upon rebooting, my phone no longer detected a mounted SD card. Along with this, it also doesn't have working audio. I tried rolling back to my restoration point, but I cannot find it now. While digging through directories in recovery, I've found two things out.
1: There is now a storage/emulation/legacy folder with (almost) every folder that was in mnt/sdcard.
2: My restore point is gone, and I don't have the original kernel on my phone
I figured this wouldn't be THAT big of a problem, connect my phone to my PC, go into ADB and try to push the stock s-off kernel. Next set of problems.
1: /mnt/sdcard is showing as a non-directory, insists it doesn't exist.
2: storage/emulation/ shows as read only, and all lower subdirectories are coming up as not existing (I believe it to be an issue with folder naming, legacy is actually 0 on my file explorer on the phone, I think?).
Where I stand now::
At this moment, I have the HTC Droid DNA Toolkit running, the stock s-off Kernel, and a phone that doesn't cooperate with anything.
Also; I tried downloading the .zip directly on my phone, but because it doesn't think there's an SD card, it's refusing to let me download it. It lets me download apps from the market, though.
Any ideas?
PS! Forgot the biggest SNAFU in all of this. On my phone are about 200 pictures from my vacation which I hadn't put onto my computer yet because I am an imbecile. This is keeping me from wiping the phone down to brass tacks and starting all over. If someone can find a way for me to pull said pictures from my device, I can wipe it and see if that helps.

Have you tried using an OTG cable to mount a flash drive? That's what I do when I backup/flash anything, I keep all my roms, kernels, backups, basically anything flashable on a flash drive, and use an OTG cable in CWM.
For the pictures:
Step 1; adb reboot recovery
Step 2; adb devices (to make sure it's detected)
Step 2.1: If your phone isn't detected, open sideload in recovery, adb devices again, then close sideload
Step 3: adb pull /sdcard/ C:\<username>\Desktop\sdcardbackup\
To fix everything else you'll probably need to wipe everything and flash a new rom.
EDIT: For future "snafus" the sdcard is on /sdcard/ not /mnt/sdcard/ because it's on internal memory, not mounted memory.

Well, I feel silly for that confusion. I've pulled everything from the sdcard, which honestly mattered more to me than fixing the phone. I'll putter around with getting the ROM and kernel operating correctly in the next couple of hours.
UPDATE!
Once I had the adb pull command corrected for me, pushing the new ZIP on there was an instant success in recovery. SD card exists correctly once again, installed Viper ROM over, full functionality once more.

you can always do this too as long as the device is recognized by adb
Code:
adb shell
this will get you into the actual device where you can navigate around by using the " cd /dir_name " command and to go back up a dir use " cd .. " (a space and 2 "."s are needed) or just " cd " to get back to the starting point... if you know how to navigate through a unix terminal then you will know what to do here...
some other useful commands
Code:
ls, ls -a, ls -l, cd, cp, mv
ls = list (lists files/folders) "-a" means all, "-l" just makes it look neat and laid out better.
cd = change directory aka "dir"
cp = copy /path/to/file.ext /path/to/where/you/want/to/save/it/file.ext
mv = move (same as ^ ) except it just moves it and doesn't copy
oh and to exit adb shell just type "exit"
Honestly, just grab a working kernel. And use fastboot. Especially since you're s-off
fastboot flash boot boot.img should get you back in working order.

Wifi and OTA updates were working fine before I rooted my kids' Nabi 2. I never tried an OTA update until after I rooted them, which doesn't work (I tried 2.1 since it said it was available). I followed the directions at http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2041224 and it worked great to restore to stock 1.9.12, but wifi doesn't work now (mine could have been 1.9.37 originally). I tried the "wifi fix" mentioned, but there are still no wifi networks displayed like there were earlier today. I do not have a micro SD card to install the updates from, as mentioned in the replies. If I were to buy one, can I just put the OTA updates from http://forum.xda-developers.com/wiki/Fuhu_nabi_2 on it, and install from it somehow?
I tried to copy fuhu_nabi2_138139_1937_ota.zip to the device and install through the recovery kernel, but got an "assert failed" error. Any ideas as to what can be done to at least update this to 1.9.37, or maybe do a "stock install" of 1.9.37 instead of 1.9.12 so I have a better chance of wifi working? Please be specific as to what I need to try and in what order...some of the tools I tried seem to be inconsistent in results (Nabi Lab was latest I used). I am comfortable using what t499user has to go back to 1.9.12, I just wish I could use the same method to go to something newer...
I had the wifi problem this past spring. I backed up all my apps and data then flashed back to stock with NabiLab. Re-rooted and all was fine again.
You should also be able to use TWRP to flash back to stock. See TWRP thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2074501
Some more info that may help http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2248495
This experience is only my second time with TWRP and updating the Nabi. I've previously tried reverting to the backup in the "stockunrooted" folder, which is where I think the original was. I now recall that this had been updated to 2.0 using OTA before it was rooted.
Using TWRP, I tried reverting back to stockunrooted just now. Wifi works again, but OTA still does not (2.1 downloaded and seemed to install quicker, but upon reboot all I saw was "an error installing" message and it went directly to TWRP (where I just rebooted and it went to the Nabi screen). I am not sure what else to try. There is also an "oem" folder available for restore in TWRP, but that is the one created using t499user's process to go to 1.9.12. I initially used t499user's tutorial because I thought maybe something was wrong with the stockunrooted backup.
I have a few questions. Is updating TWRP to the latest version important? If yes, how do I do that (I've seen http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2074501 before, but still not sure how to download/install 2.6.1.0)? If this has been reverted to "stock" and OTA updates still don't work, how do I apply them manually (from http://forum.xda-developers.com/wiki/Fuhu_nabi_2)?
I just noticed that the "stockunrooted" backup has things that aren't stock. Internal Storage has an Android folder with com.google.apps subfolders, etc. I am back to the original problem, and that is going to "stock" (something other than 1.9.12).
Cool, I figured out how to install 205to210.zip (TWRP 2.3.3.0)...For anyone interested, I copied the zip to Nabi/Internal Storage/TWRP, booted while holding +, pressed - to 'recovery kernel,' pressed + to choose it, then chose install. There is one more update I tried (2127stock.zip), but I get a flash error and it did not install. Considering (so far) I cannot get back to "stock unrooted" and use OTA updates, does anyone know how I can install this?
Wait...maybe there isn't another update. http://forum.xda-developers.com/wiki/Fuhu_nabi_2 has "Update 2.0.5 to 2.1.27" as the latest. I think it is working OK. Back to my original question(s), what is the process to install an updated version of TWRP and a "stock version" of something other than 1.9.12? Just trying to get the whole process understood...If I can simply use t499user's tutorial with different images, that would be rad to the max.

As for getting a stock image. You were using the zips here http://forum.xda-developers.com/wiki/Fuhu_nabi_2
You dont "Install" those zips. You need to extract the contents. boot.win, system.win, etc. and put them in the TWRP folder.(TWRP/BACKUPS/XXXXXX/folder)
Make a folder called 2127 put the filed in there. Then "Restore in TWRP. Then you should have a stock system. Same goes for 1937stock.zip 205stock.zip
If you have questions ask away.
Thank you all! I think I am getting it. Since I am reading (and had first hand experience) that Google Play isn't working very well with 2.1.27, I will go back to 2.05. That should keep the kids happy. I will let you know if I have more questions.
Oops...I broke something. I have two Nabis. I accidentally restored one using the device ID path of the other. I used "adb push c:\nabi\fuhu_nabi2_v1912_system.ext4.win /sdcard/TWRP/BACKUPS/015d2bc264340217/oem/system.ext4.win" for both. The incorrect one booted, but I noticed that the apps aren't the same. I tried to use TWRP again, but it is not recognized by cmd "adb devices" and I get "error: device not found" when trying "adb reboot-bootloader." I also tried whatever restore option there was in the settings, but it is the same result...Any options?

Google play won't work with 2.1.27 unless you delete some apps from /system/vendor/apps before installing gapps
As long as you have the bootloader(with the 4 options boot normal, fastboot, recovery kernel, forced recovery) and working USB port there are always options.
So is ADB not working in TWRP or in Android or both? It's probably best to copy boot.emmc.win, data.ext4.win and restore those too since you have done so much stuff. Boot contains you kernel, and data the apps. You will be back to a stock tablet with no game saves or anything so make sure you got off the tablet what you needed
I don't see a /system/vendor folder using TWRP file manager now...is that only when 2.1 is installed? How much do I need to remove, and are there any known problems with gapps in this case?
I fixed whatever problems I had. (Yes, I still have the bootloader.)
I am not that familiar with this, but let me explain what I have done. As before, I was using ADB/fastboot instructions from http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2041224 (Windows 7). Both tablets' Internal Storage were recognized by Windows, but only the other one (with correct device ID 015d2bc264340217) was recognized when using ADB. That is how I was updating between Nabi 2 versions before.
Tablet 1:
C:\adb>adb devices
List of devices attached
015d2bc264340217 device
Tablet 2 (normally 015d24a7f41c1c15):
C:\adb>adb devices
List of devices attached
At one point, both devices started an endless loop when booting (shows the "Please wait while Nabi initializes" message for a split second and boots again). It may have been something with the way I installed the OTA updates, but I figured that it had to be something wrong with System so I wiped absolutely everything from within TWRP and I followed t499user's instructions for Windows cmd line (for going back to 1.9.12). Everything is good now, but I don't want to upgrade to 2.1 if gapps has any problems...

Before browsing with TWRP file manager you need to go to the "Mount" tab, put an X in system. Then go to file manager.
Probably have to remove around ~50MB, maybe a bit less. Lots of people choose Wings, but obviously Wings is something some kids love. Really depends on the user.
When you flash stock, it often reset USB debugging to off in Android settings, if you flashed data too.
USB debugging is still on. Do you know anything about whether or not gapps has any problems with rooted Nabi 2.1? You have been a great help!
I didn't realize what would happen until it broke, but what I tried to do was remove apk files prior to upgrading to 2.1. I have copies of them on Internal Storage and locally, but I don't see a way to copy them back to /system/vendor/app using TWRP (tried mounting everything except external storage, which isn't selectable; internal storage isn't selectable, located to the right). Is there a way to do it, or do I have to go back to 1.9.12 and start over?

The only problem gapps has is there isn't enough room for it with a stock 2.1. You have to remove something.
Mount everything in TWRP. Go to file manager. /data/media is internal storage. You will find your files. Copy them back to /system/vendor/apps. Might have to set permissions.
Thanks! I copied from Windows using adb, but I got the same asset error (two of the files no longer had their original icon, it was default Android icon). That might have been the permissions issue you mentioned. In the future, how do I change the permissions, and what should they be set to? After this, I am done messing with it. Thank you for everything!

You might be out of space again depending on what you copied back and why the icons are blank. Check with
adb shell df (in Android)
Look at system and see how much space you have free.
Or it could be permissions. You can use a file manager in Android such as ES File Explorer or Astro. You need to go to the setting in the app and enable whatever option they have to browse and remount "system" as read/write that will require root and should prompt you to accept. Then you can browse to the directory. You could also use TWRP File manager the same as when you copied files. There is a permissions tab.
I think the permission you want is 0644(for TWRP), or wr-r--r--(for ES). Same thing just different nomenclature.
Similar issue as OP
Hi guys, I have done pretty much the same thing as the OP. The wireless will not turn on or find any networks. I have tried reverse tethering, but have lost root and pretty much any other way to get internet to the nabi 2, so I can update from version 1.9.12. The big problem is I cannot use TWRP because when I boot into recovery and try to get there I get the dead green android guy with the exclamation point error and it hangs there until a hard restart. Any ideas on how to fix this. Is there a way to push an update through the SD card? Any ideas and suggestions would be greatly appreciated. I have already spent more time than I would have liked trying to fix this.
Dead android is stock recovery. You need to reflash TWRP.
Also to get out of the stock recovery just press vol + and - together. Should be am option to reboot. No need to hard power off.

Well I swear I have tired this, but decided to give it another go and it worked! Got TWRP up and running then ran NabiLab to return to stock 1.9.37. Wireless is working and updating to 2.1 and then will give root a shot and GApps. Thanks for getting back on track!
