Because of this I cannot use the software. Please note I have previously rooted my tablet.
Please help or give me a clue on how to fix this.

From stifilz's FAQ thread.
Q. AIO v4.1 isn't working?
A. AIO v4.1 is a little buggy please use v4.0 here.
You will need to disable updates so, create a file called "_offupdates" in "files" directory (without quotes).
Q. AIO still isn't working?
A. Please dowload the attached file ADB v1.0.29, extract and replace the files in the "files" directory.

Place an empty text file named _offupdates (without a .txt extension) in the directory named files. There is no directory named tools. I wrote tool's as in belonging to Condi's AiO tool.
i have created an empty _offupdates file without the extension... but it keeps looking for the update... i tried offline but AIO wont open. i tried moving it from folder to folder to see if it would make any kind of difference but i just keep getting the message that there is a new update. is there a possible way around this ?

If you extracted Condi's S.onyTablet.S [ALLinONE] v4.0.7z file in your hard drive's root directory, then place the _offupdates file you created in the C:\S.onyTablet.S [ALLinONE] v4.0\files directory. Also, Condi's AiO tool will not work offline. The tool must be able to access the Internet.

I just used a root checker to check if i still have root and i do! so what could be the problem & how do i fix it guys?
Related
I didn't see a thread for this anywhere and it's not included in the rooting documentation so i figured I'd make one.
This will allow you to install apk files directly from the device, no need to adb them over. Just get the apk from the web or whatever source you want and install. Of course this is all assuming you have completed the current root process and have adb access already.
Thanks to godsfilth for finding these directions for the origninal nook.
1. Open a command prompt and navigate to your sdk tools folder
2. Run the following commands
Code:
C:\android-sdk-windows\tools>adb pull /data/data/com.android.providers.settings/databases/settings.db settings.db
C:\android-sdk-windows\tools>sqlite3 settings.db
sqlite> update secure set value=1 where name='install_non_market_apps';
sqlite> .q
C:\android-sdk-windows\tools>adb push settings.db /data/data/com.android.providers.settings/databases/settings.db
3. Reboot
4. Install apps from NC without ADB.
You might have to restart your homescreen for the apps to show up, but i've had sucess with every app i've tried that is known working on the NC.
This was done on a Windows 7 x64 machine, although i'm sure it's the same or similiar for Linux and MUC OSx.
Also, sqlite3.exe was already in my sdk tools folder, if it's not for you then you can download from here.
Yep, and you can ADB install a file manager app, then just use the file manager to install anything else, from the SD card.

So...the nook doesn't stop apps from deing installed if Iinstall them manger astro file Manger?
What is the command in sqllite to see if the db entry has been changed?
I copied & pasted your commands and after a reboot still get "Can't install downloaded apk"
I did the same - even adapted the commands because the folder name wasn't the same, etc.
However, I'm trying to use SlideMe to install APKs and it keeps coming up with "Install Blocked" - any ideas?

Once you enable this it will allow you to install the apps, it doesn't have anything to do with astro per se. You can just use astro to navigate to apks stored on your sd card. I use estrongs file manager myself and have installed apks from my sd card, dropbox and downloads from dolphin browser hd.
I'm getting the same error as everyone else.
I made the edits per your first post and pushed the file back to the NC. Then I rebooted. Placed an apk in the NC and tried to open it using Root Explorer. I try to install it and I get the "Installation of donwload apks is not supported" error.

just use
Code:
sqlite3 settings.db ".dump"
and then scroll down and look for INSERT INTO "secure" VALUES(4,'install_non_market_apps','1'); you want a 1 there at the end.

look in your tools folder for the settings.db file and check the modified by time and make sure the change you are making is made.
To clarify if there's a misunderstanding the path info and text before the > in the commands is just what you would see in your command prompt. the actual commands are after the >. These are the actual commands.
Code:
adb pull /data/data/com.android.providers.settings/databases/settings.db settings.db
sqlite3 settings.db
update secure set value=1 where name='install_non_market_apps';
.q
adb push settings.db /data/data/com.android.providers.settings/databases/settings.db
What command did you have to alter?
also, maybe try
Code:
adb push settings.db /data/data/com.android.providers.settings/databases/settings.db
to push... I didn't have any problem with the other command and both appear to work for me.
Oh none, your commands worked awesomely, I just had to yank the folder designations that were there, which you've now done for everyone, so thanks!
I think it might be a problem somewhere else, I'm re-doing everything right now, I'll let everyone know
Ran these commands again with the additional adb push and still no dice. I checked to see that the db entry had been updated and it correctly has the install non market apps set to 1. I'm using root explorer as well I'll try estrongs as you have. Thanks for the help.

Confirmed now that SlideMe is not the issue - the settings are all correct on the PC, I can't confirm these settings for the NC. I tried re-adb-pushing and still no cigar here either. I'm getting app rejections from any source, downloaded on the NC and the SD card. Any idea what could be wrong?
Ok, definitely isolated the problem now.
I pull the settings from the NC, modify them, and everything works great, then it refuses to push it back, but says it succeeds, or something to this effect, because whenever I pull the file back from the NC, it says value=0

Not sure, I've got it working using this method on 3 different NCs myself. The only thing i can think of is that i had already installed estrongs file manager and a few other games before doing it. Maybe try using adb to install estrongs or astro and see if it will let you then.
estrongs i'm using: www mediafire com ?sxw6adfzvyp250m
astro: www mediafire com ?05scsbrnx2wfw4v

Thanks for the file links - I'll give them a try, I really think the problem though is that the NC keeps resetting the value I push back for the non-market apps. I have no idea why it's doing this...

try pulling it back right after pushing the modified one, before rebooting, and see if it's even pushing correctly at all. If it is then being reset on reboot i don't know what the issue is.
Novaglarion, I am not able to do it either.
When you say "reboot", is that the same as power off and on?

make sure you're pushing the modified db file to /data/data/com.android.providers.settings/databases not to /data/data/com.android.providers.settings
it needs to be in the databases folder so it overwrites the original

DAMN YOU!!!! such a simple thing and i missed it! You are correct. I'll update the original commands. Thanks for the good catch there.
I attempted as many did to update the new OTA. You can find it on this forum. I constantly got an error 7 after the install failed as the install looked at my Preinstall files. After any number of attempts, I used a standard Preinstall directory. I deleted the current Preinstalled, using Root Explorer I did a copy paste. Bingo, Bango, Bongo. Install Complete!!
Here is a link to a dropbox copy of the preinstall.
http://dl.dropbox.com/u/8489906/preinstall.zip
posted a couple of different forums. Trying to help
Some were having trouble with the dropbox download. On another site a helpful member uploaded them to:
http://www.megaupload.com/?d=LKAU0HOO
Might just be me, but the link isn't working. Can you re-post it?

Some help
My solution to the how and it goes without saying - you are on your own if you brick you phone.
1. Download the file. I am uploading to another online file site now and will update the link soon.
2. Unzip the downloaded file preinstall.zip on your computer. Connect USB to computer as a mass storage drive and copy preinstall directory to your SD-Ext.
3. Disconnect your computer and start Root Explorer. If you don't have it, it is available in the Market.
4. Go to the Main (root) directory of your Razr and scroll down to the Preinstall Directory. Using Root Explorer copy the current preinstall directory to your SD-ext in an out of the way directory.
5. Go back to the root directory. At the top of the screen is an small icon labeled RW. Select this option by touching the icon - it should now say RO. RW=Read Write RO-Read Only. The directory must be in the RW state to copy the preinstall directory.
6. Go back to the root directory and delete the old "preinstall" directory.
6. Go back to the SD-Ext where you stored the downloaded "Preinstall" directory. Select this file and copy. Root Explorer will now have the Paste option showing on the bottom left of the screen.
7. Navigate back to the Root (main) directory and press "paste". Root Explorer should now paste the downloaded copy of the preinstall into the root directory.
Note: Based on my limited experience if you simple copy and overwrite the preinstall directory, portion of the old preinstall will be left in the root directory. These files are the problem causing the Error 7 in the update - IMO.
Hope this helps.

I hope this works This has been driving me crazy! I'll post my results and spread the word to others I've spoken to about this frustrating issue. Great find, and thanks for sharing!
Edit: Strange, as soon as I delete the original preinstall folder, and hit paste, it asks if I want to merge folders instead of just paste. If I go into another folder, then back to the root folder, preinstall reappears... I'll try merging, but sounds like that isn't going to work.
Edit 1: Failed Maybe my issue has something to do with the preinstall folder being repopulated the instant I delete it, which doesn't allow me to simply replace it with the one hosted in the OP.
I believe I only have one option now... to learn how to dev, graduate, intern at Motorola, get a job at Motorola and work my way up the ladder until I can decide how FXZ files are protected, and release them to the public!
I still get this error

Not sure whats happening with the preinstall but I see that Nitro has a very straightforward install on another Razr forum.
Could you possibly direct me to that, via pm if necessary?

There is an error in the script-file pointing to the folders where the various tools and files should be found. Find the directory-structure where you unpacked the files and check if the paths in the script match the directory-structure
First it can't find the exploit 'rageagainstthecage' in the files folder (cannot stat /files/rageagainstthecage, which means it cannot get proper permissions to do the other steps (Mount system R/W, mount: Operation not permitted)
And on top of that it can't find the files that are needed for CWM (files/recovery.tar, chargemon and busybox)
so put those four files in a 'files' folder in the directory where you run the command from, or edit the script file to point to the directory where those tools actually are.
If you provide the link to where you downloaded the tool from, i will inform them of the error too so they can fix it
thanks for your answer but i have found the problem,
the script was alright but I opened it as administrator, but when I open it as normal user it works
thx anyway
Is there any kind of tool FOR Android that can extract a boot image from a payload.bin? Or do you basically need a PC for the task? I do it all the time from my desktop, but a tool to do it on my phone itself would be super convenient if it exists somewhere. Thanks guys!

There's a high likelihood that Termux can do it. If you have a payload.bin that you can link me I'll try it. I think it can run these python scripts assuming there's nothing wrong with them.

I think I know what happened. Was the file on an sdcard? Because scripts can't run there, and I totally forgot about that. You normally have to copy the file into termux's home location. /data/data/com.termux/files/home If you get permission denied there, then change the group owner, and user to what's in the screen shot and it'll work. You can avoid that situation entirely though, by downloading the file directly into Termux's home folder using wget. For those scripts to run you'll need to install python and protobuf too. From termux run, (without root), pkg install protobuf & pkg install python.
I'm going to try extracting that. Downloading it now.
Edit: I tried but I can't get it to work. The scripts error out because it's expecting some kind of info from Google. I tried adjusting the metainfo structure to match a pixel device and it got further into the process, but it still gives an error. What do you use on pc? I might be able to port it to Termux.
