Hi Ive been trying to root my Nabi 2 tablet to access the Google Play Store. Ive downloaded ADB and followed instructions, Ive also got the correct drivers etc, when i ran the root tool by jmz I chose option 1 and it ran through the process, is there anything else I need to during during this as I then booted up and it was just the same as before?! Im normally an apple fan and experienced in jailbreaking etc but this is my first android as Im trying to exchange all my apple devices for android lol. Can some help me find a step by step full tutorial as Ive been trying to follow the one in this link here http://forum.xda-developers.com/show....php?t=1905674 but I cant understand what else I need to do?! Thanks in advance
Anybody?! JMZTAYLOR if you see this can you please write a quick tutorial on what I need to do as Im clearly doing something wrong. Its probably just something so simple Im missing?! Any advice would be highly appreciated, sorry if this post is extremely noobish Im normally very adaptable!
Any Luck?
I was just wondering, it's been over a month with no post here. Did you get it working? If so can you post your solution or a link to the thread with the solution you used?
Not sure about the root tool for your device, but any good root tool will install a superuser app, such as Superuser:
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.noshufou.android.su
Not sure if you got your issues sorted yet but if you go here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1905674 I am sure someone could help you. I just rooted 2 in about 20 minutes over the weekend. Good luck
There's no need to root the nabi for the play store...
http://everythingnabi.blogspot.com/2012/08/googlie-booglie.html
Interesting, except for step 21:
21. Do not update or attempt to install any apps, as it will force close the Google Play Store. The apk file installed is not fully functional on the nabi 2 Tablet. It does however allow for the purchase of Books, Movies and Music. The following pop-up will appear if you attempt to update or purchase an app.
If you root you will have a fully functional Play Story as well as text AND video on Google Talk plus many other features

My son is getting this for christmas. I know really all he cares about are the google play apps and youtube and other features that need this process in order for him to achieve his wishes... (whew)

Any warnings that i should heed other than a voided warranty?

I want to get Google Play working on my son's Nabi 2 as well, but I'm pretty concerned over the touch calibration issue some people are having on the ROM thread about rooting it. I've only had one android device (my galaxy s2) and thought about rooting it, but couldn't find an overly compelling reason to do so. Now that the Nabi 2 needs it, I would be loathe to brick it/mess it up to get this calibration issue. Even if I try on my s2, this Nabi seems a tad different for some reason.

That is a very rare issue. If you root it and have a problem with the touch screen it only effects recovery software once it's rooted and gapps installed you won't have to go back to recovery.

It is indeed a rare issue, if the script goes fine, you shouldn't have to do anything in recovery yourself anyway. Here is the gapps.zip that fixes the 'android upgrading' on every boot.

It's written for Ubuntu, but the commands are easy to adapt for Windows as well. You install adb and fastboot differently and you remove 'sudo' from the commands.
Does rooting the Nabi2 get rid of the Monarch UI? All I want to do is get GApps on it, but I want to keep the Monarch UI for the kids.

Do you really need Google Play?
Nabi 2 works great with Amazon App store (over 50,000 apps). Ex. Unless I installed Minecraft PE, my son would have 2 tablets for Christmas, his with no minecraft and mine with. In daddy mode you can get amazon and the installed apps are manageable in the add/remove to decide which apps to allow your child to see. PS: DO NOT add Amazon store to Nabi mode (unless your child is older, or unless your rich and don't mind your child maxing out a credit card on apps). Personally, I have jailbroken ipads for friends and rooted my last Motorola phone, but I wouldn't risk and consequences of screwing up your child's brand new tablet. You can go from Hero to Zero if you mess up.

Just be prepared to lose a bit more battery life when you install the Amazon app store. I have heard about it taking up a bit more battery due to licence checks, running in the background and such.

For some reason I can't download anything from the play store all of a sudden. It worked fine the other day, but today it gives me an error when ever I try to download a new app or update an installed app.

Does anyone know if there is a fix for the WiFi problem?
Also - stupid question - is it technically feasible to install the Play store without rooting?

Why is this game saying it is incompatible with my Galaxy 10.1 and Acer A500 when I can blatantly see reviews for both devices under the marketplace listing!!!
Other people have the game installed, what is going on here?

Maybe they changed it for some reason. If you still want to install it, you can clear your markets applicationdata, edit your /System/buid.prop and change your device to something like
ro.product.model = Nexus S
ro.product.manufacturer = samsung
or whatever phone is still compatible to download it

I dont have test this! There is a version for galaxy tab?
So whats going on? How do i download he game?
Found out
Go to the Rockstar website and find the game. Apparently the company didn't test the game for rooted and jailbroken devices. It won't work properly if your device is rooted, which sucks because they waited to add that little bit until myself and a lot of others bought it already and found out the next day that it now comes up as incompatible. They are willing to refund the money. Just follow the instructions they have.

My Tab's rooted too... the key to getting it to work if you have issues (won't start, no sound, etc) seems be to delete the resource files (Android/data/com.rockstar.gta3) and restart the app, forcing it to download it again. Works perfectly after that.
It's working on mine also, stock 3.2 HC rooted. Just installed & downloaded game data
It's back! It's returned to the My Apps list on my Tab and market.android.com also reports it's compatible again!

Can confirm this also.. Even had an update waiting for it..
Hey all,
So i'm in a dilemma. I currently have a Droid Razr (rooted with eclipse) on ICS. I also have a Galaxy Tab 2 7" (unrooted). I'm trying to play a game called Order and Chaos (gameloft online). It says in game that it doesn't recognize either device (in game), resulting in me NOT being able to play.
Breif Backstory: Before my Razr had ICS, and was on GB, I followed instructions here for editing the build.prop and tricking or spoofing the phone into thinking it was a Droid3 (phone compatible with the game). I could download, open, update and play the game. (Once game worked- changed back the build.prop and had no problems).
NOW that I have ICS, I brick the phone every time I try to edit the build.prop like before. I tried to install the .apk directly and that didn't work. I assume the game checks while loading.
Does anyone know if it is even possible to trick the new ICS rom into thinking it is an older model phone like the x2 or droid3?
Or can I "convert" or trick it into thinking it is a Galaxy s3, or other phone that DOES work with the game?
And same question goes for the Galaxy tab 2, tricking it into being a 1st gen galaxy tab (which works with the game)?
Stressed out and just looking for some expert help because all I want to do is drink some beers, sit on my ass and play a game.
Thanks in advance guys and girls
Not an expert (or even close...) but by any chance do you use Titanium backup? Because if so, maybe the apk is stored there...Don't know if this is a "paid" app, but if not, you can probably find the apk online...
I had a similar issue with Tiny Tunes. Both daughters wanted it, only one phone could get it. Downloaded it on one. Backed it up on my pc. Connected other phone, dragged and dropped. It worked on both phones....
Sent from my GT-P7510 using Tapatalk 2
It is a paid app. However i did find the apk onlkne and tried that route. Stilll gives me an in game error about not recognizing the device. I have a feeling it scans the device for "compatability" on startup, which is why thephone has to be spoofex as another one.
Tried the titanium backup but. That didnt seem to work. Fml. Anyone else have any ideas?

Ahhh calex.... great observation. So is it possible to trick the phone into thinking it is a different one, on ICS.. Say for instance a galaxy s3 or does someone know a phone similar to the droid razr that will work?
Anyone?
Hi, I am fairly new with BN and its development, but main reason was to determine if it was worth spending 100 bucks on the 16GB 7inch nook tablet or go with other tablets (ie Nexus 7)?
Thanks
Depends on what you want to do with it.
If you want to use it as intended, as a reader, then sure. It's worth it. It's even worth it to root and install a new ROM. If you're looking for a tablet you don't have to root and you get a more genuine Android experience (Play store et al) out of the box, then I would go with the Nexus 7.
This will be for my kids.
Mainly for netflix and youtube for videos. Root to install playstore, and amazon app store for few kid games.
Just wanted to check with forum about this nook tablet and ability handle without issues.
Thanks again.

I'll second that. 99% of what they will want to play or do can be done on rooted stock. I highly recommend Veronica's debloat rom for maximum compatibility with both appstores and minimum B&N nonsense. :good:

Link in my sig. One of the downloads includes the Play Store.
Keep in mind, you have to have 1.4.2 or lower to be able to use Play Store apps on the stock home screen (via NookColorAppManager, use Google to find it).
What I did for my little girl was buy a crappy kyros for 60 bucks and then sideloaded the apps I wanted her to have on it. This allowed me to not install playstore so she can't "accidentally" rack up a ton of money downloading things in there. Cheap enough that I don't really care if she breaks it in a couple of months and easy to rip the apps I pay for off of my phone that I want her to be able to use and put them on there. Just one view
You can always pin-lock the play store so she can't download anything paid, as well as locking down certain app ratings.
That's what I'm doing with my son's tablet.

Also install Kid's Place! It is free and very good at managing time on the device and apps they are allowed to view including auto starting on device boot so that way you don't have to worry about them getting around the program when you aren't around.

Has anyone figured out how to back up the game without losing all your progress? I'm looking to flash an updated ROM on my S3 soon, and in a few months get a Nexus 5 (or HTC One) and I've heard from others that TB does nothing. I really like this game and I'm pretty far along, I just don't want to have to start from scratch and grind just to get close to where I am. Any help would be awesome, thank you!

Well, I found there is a way for IOS users to save their progress, but us Android users are s.o.l. until they set up the Facebook link (not sync, your progress will not be related to your MAA game on Facebook). For some reason, Google search wouldn't pull up the topic before.
I looked through the files of the game, and I did find some assets that show that the FB link, as well as Spec Ops 1, will be in the next update. Hopefully Monday we'll get a treat from Playdom.

Normally, it should work just fine with with TB or ROM Toolbox, but others confirmed that they do nothing. I'm worried that going through TWRP won't matter. If I wasn't so far into the game and near the top tier in PVP, I would test it myself. :/

how are you able to play pvp? on my Motorola xt912 when i hit the .05% i could not get past the loading screen. but my s3 so far has no problems. are top players hacking? reason i ask that is i got hit by hawkeye in a black suite along with another hero doing some funkey stuff that can only be done on the computer version. it had a huge "A" for avengers. much like the coulson's gun we have. that icon. but that was i believe in the first 3 days of pvp.
glad to know i can buy pun tho. if you dont mind i would like to ask a few more things. i bought this limited edition coulson's gun. it says customized, power is set by agent lvl when acquired. does that mean this gun will not lvl up with me? or is the power lvl set at my lvl but will lvl up with me. example, my new agent is lvl 8. when i hit say lvl 40 will this get lvl 40 stats?
also asking playdom to put my old profile on my new device resulted in this e-mail
hello, im sure i made it clear i moved from a Motorola to a Samsung. since you offer no app sync data support and have not got back to me regarding my saved game, i would like to have a refund. i put over 40$ into that game and i am forced to start over. not only that but it seems your company cant even fix a pvp bug correctly. i put the money into this app to have a better chance at pvp.
since i started playing on my new phone i have not got the loading screen error yet. so either please put my saved game on my new phone or refund me so i can buy all my heroes that i had bought.
please understand my frustration on this issue and i hope you had a happy holiday and have a good new year.
p.s. both of my phones are verizon in case you need that info

I have noticed some agents that I suspect of hacking in the top of the PVP leaderboards, but I have yet to encounter any in combat. I'm not surprised if most of the 0.5% are hackers. That's pretty common in MAA, sadly. Also, I would avoid using Storm in PVP. It has been noted that she causes the game to freeze on the second loading screen, which then forces you to close out and lose points. Also, the AI can't use her properly.
As for the people with CR and the Avengers alt outfits, I'm assuming people who are registered playtesters get early access to these. That, or more hackers (more likely the case )
When you buy equipment that is customized, it will not level with your agent. If you were level 12 and got it, it'll always be level 12. Unless they add forging to the Android version, I would avoid buying customized equipment.
I found out the other night that apparently they do have device syncing available, but it is not working properly. Another user from the MAA Wikia forum is trying to get a hold of Playdom about it. It syncs up though Facebook on your phone.
I'm hoping with next update everything will be sorted out. If you look in the files for the app, you can find images and whatnot about syncing with facebook maybe though the app itself and not through the FB app. Also, the first spec ops will be X-men vs Avengers. I'd start saving your CP, we're gonna need Gambit, Nightcrawler, Rogue, and Black Panther.
Thanks for the heads up man. If anything send me an invite on android maa.

well for awhile i had my profile on a new device. some one started a thred on the fourms and i figured i would list the steps as best as i can so they dont mess anything up.
https://play.google.com/store/apps/d...droididchanger
there is a free version
http://forum.xda-developers.com/show....php?t=2109484
note this process the phones needs to have root in order to work. also if you dont have root i suggest helium .
ok so the easy steps. on the old device back up maa and save it on sd card. take out sd card and put it on your new device. on the new device that you want the maa profile, install android id changer. go to your old device and open up Titanium backup, find the android id, copy it. on the new device clear out maa, just uninstall it. then open up android id changer. SAVE THE ID FIRST!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! it will get stored into your phone. can always revert the change if something was to go wrong. now type in the old android id. reboot phone.
after the phone reboots go into Titanium backup, it will let you know the android id has been changed. accept the change. now go into the play store and download maa. after it installs go into your "my files" look for the back up of maa data from Titanium backup. move it to phone from sd card into the Titanium backup folder. go into Titanium backup, if you dont see it just select reload app. now you should see it. restore app data only.
open up maa, notice no download from server. now you know everything went good. but dont hurt to double check.
i did this process myself just to make sure i can post about this and keep people safe. i dont agree with how the op started this post. it can lead people into trouble. this can also lead you into trouble with other apps that need the android id. so remember, if an app has no sync , it means its going to need the android id. this is why i like helium. it seems to do what you need with out changing android id. but that seems to be hit and miss for some people. i dont recommend doing this for just maa alone. never know what you can mess up in the process.

Really you dont need that. I used it so I dont need any updates from google play. What you do need is the same android id that's linked to the profile.
With out that id then well you can't enjoy your saved game
Hi all I thought I would start a thread for this phone because I just successfully rooted mine! MAKE SURE YOU HAVE THE DRIVERS FOR YOUR PHONE + ADB DRIVERS INSTALLED! The only method I got to work was jcase's pwn method from the root with restore by bin4ry tool (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1886460). After that I installed SuperSU from the play store and voilà! Full root access!
Xposed framework + GravityBox work well.
If this method doesn't work, try Root Genius (you can find it in replies within this thread)(there is also our own forum over at androidforums). Some people have had success with it. And if you've already tried root genius, try this one. It seems this phone is tricky to root as different methods work for different people!
Awesome - I have this on T-Mobile and it's a decent little piece. I might try this as well; thanks for the post. Seems it's the only thread on XDA so far about this phone.

This phone is really great for its pricetag aint it! Good to know i helped someone, i spent more than a couple hours installing and trying many methods to root mine until i dug this one up and struck gold. haha
Glad to see this thread . I would like to see more threads on the Metro PCS Kyocera Hydro Life. I sure would like to find an in expensive way to unlock it besides leaving it activaed on MetroPCS for 90 days.

I'm also excited to see this. I samshe the [email protected]#% out of my Nexus 5 and decided to pick up the T-Mobile version of the Hydro Life. Great phone for the price so far (tho the camera is pretty terrible), but I can't wait to rip out some of the T-Mobile pre-installed garbage/interface.
Has anyone tried a stock ROM on this yet?

Haha all we got is the stock ROM. And a locked bootloader. The method in the OP should work to root it tho. Then you can get an app like link2sd or titanium backup to uninstall system apps. Be careful what you get rid of tho, I just get rid of the metro/T-Mobile stuff and google+, play books, play games, etc.
Any further developments on this?

i actually used roootgenius to root it, trust me i thought this program was fake or a virus but it worked.
the only thing is im taking the phone back now because the audio quality is horrible and the UI design is for people of years 80+ (no offense)
really good phone with terrible audio and geezer UI designs. (I can barf looking at the dialer)
anyways now im looking for the stock rom because i did root it and deleted system apps with out making a back up -_-.
if i do a full reset will the system apps come back?
i was thrilled to find this post but i can't seem to get mine to work. the phone is on usb debugging mode. my laptop sees the phone but the program doesn't. what am i doing wrong and which mode did you select?

All of the google apps and metro/T-Mobile stuff should be safe. Anything that you can search for on the play store and find should be safe. Anything that's not on the play store I just freeze and leave there since this phone isn't cramped for storage space and I don't know if there is a way to flash a restore as of yet.
My new favorite home launcher - APUS. Much better than our outdated Kyocera launcher.

One more ? as I learning here. APUS looks nice but should I remove the stock launcher or just leave and use APUS as my default launcher? Thanks for your help

I'm sorry, I should have noted ALWAYS LEAVE THE STOCK LAUNCHER ON YOUR DEVICE!! This is just to be sure that if for some reason your new launcher of choice gets messed up or you accidentally uninstall it, you'll still have a 'backup' launcher. Otherwise you'd be screwed and have to find a way to restore.

Thanks again for your help. APUS is pretty cool. I also have been freezing apps and noticed Google Play Services messed with my wifi and camera. Anyone else have this issue?

Can you post details about your phone, model#, USA or international? Possible that we have different phones..? I wish I could remember exactly where and which drivers I got, I probably have different drivers than you as well. Depending on how important rooting is for you, try playing with different driver versions or maybe the 32-bit ones.
Disappointed...
