Google is you friend. Installing SafeStrap Recovery
Download the SafeStrap APK for Droid RAZR/RAZR MAXX (CDMA): Download
md5: 546060f221487ed35cc2f023c7e5d0f1
Place the downloaded APK alongside adb on your computer.
Enable installation from unknown sources on your Droid RAZR/RAZR MAXX (CDMA): Settings > Security and check the Unknown sources box.
Open a terminal on your computer and navigate to the adb executable and run the following: adb install YOURAPK.apk
If you see [SUCCESS] in the terminal, continue on.
NOTE: If you see [FAILED], please go back and ensure you've followed the instructions above to the letter.
Run the SafeStrap app on the Droid RAZR/RAZR MAXX (CDMA).
Once requested, permanently grant the application Superuser access.
Click the button labeled Install Recovery.
Once complete, reboot the device.
When the SafeStrap splash screen appears, hit the Menu button on your Droid RAZR/RAZR MAXX (CDMA).
Click the button labeled Boot Options.
Activate romslot-1 and follow the instructions on the device.
We will be updating SafeStrap to use all ROM slots for Kexec soon.
Follow the instructions below for installing CyanogenMod from recovery.
Installing CyanogenMod from recovery
Note:
Some devices do not have removable SD cards. Regardless, there should still be a partition on the device named "/sdcard" that can be used for flashing purposes, even though the contents of /sdcard may actually be in internal storage.
Download the prebuilt release of CyanogenMod you wish to install. (Or if you've built CM yourself, look in the $OUT directory for the .zip.)
Optional: Download any supplemental 3rd-party applications packages for the device you wish to use.
Place the CyanogenMod rom .zip file on the root of the SD card:
Transfer your file(s): adb push YOURROMZIP.zip /sdcard/
If you boot directly to recovery and have an internal sdcard, you may need to run adb shell mount /data or mount data through the recovery menu before transferring.
See adb documentation for additional help with this step.
Optional: Place any supplemental packages (eg Google Apps or kernel) .zip file(s) on the root of the SD card.
Boot to recovery mode on the device by holding Power and at SafeStrap splash screen press Menu key within 10 seconds.
Once the device boots into the Team Win Recovery Project, use your finger to select your choices by tapping on the appropriately labeled button.
Optional/Recommended: Select the Backup button to create a backup of the current installation on the device.
Select the Wipe and the Factory Reset buttons.
Select the Install button.
Navigate to the location of the installation zip.
Select the CyanogenMod file you placed on the sdcard. You will then need to then confirm that you do wish to flash this file.
Optional: Install any additional packages you wish using the same method.
Once the installation has finished, return back to the main menu, and select the Reboot System option. The device should now boot into CyanogenMod.
If the link is already attached to the post then no need to do copy from cynogenmod official webpage and paste it here .
It makes thread lengthy .pleasse try to drop links instead of copy it from the page.

Hey plz tell me in detail how do i install custom rom (most stable with excellent performance) in my lg p500!!!
plz answer in detail including how do i wipe sd card and all
THnx in advandee
Have you rooted your phone?
Well I'll assume that you have an P500 with v2.2.2, Stock Rom Untouched.
Firstly you would want to root the phone. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1044765
Download Gingerbreak
- Make sure USB debugging is enabled(Can be enabled through settings)
- Make sure you have an SD card (formatted and) inserted
- Place the app onto the root of your SD card
- Open the APK, press the root button
- Wait a few minutes. If there are no problems, the device will reboot (note that the reboot itself can take like 10 minutes due to cache wipe)
Congratulations the phone is rooted.

After rooting your phone, you must have 1) Recovery Installer
2) Terminal Emulator (Free from market)
3) The Custom Rom
I recommend FranciscoFranco's Rom as it contains excellent tweaks without hassle of flashing many files which may cause your phone to brick.
Recovery Installer, You can get it from: http://dl.dropbox.com/u/11987571/quick/recovery_installer.rar
when you have everything, lets start
1. extract contents of "recovey_installer.rar" to the root(meaning the base) of your SDcard.(it contains 3 files, so you should also see 3 new files on your SD card).
2. open terminal emulator, enter these lines(press enter after each line):
Code:
su
sh /sdcard/rf.sh
just wait and this should reboot you directly to recovery.
3. now in recovery(remember: "vol + and - button" is "up and down" "menu button is ok/select" and "back button" is back)
Congratulations, Your Recovery Installer is installed.
Now, You can get FranciscoFranco's Rom which is called Devoid from
here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1049518
Download franco.devoid and the kernel.
Go to recovery boot
1.Select Wipe and Wipe everything and that includes data+factory settings, cache, system, .android-secure and sd-ext partition (if you had it already)
2. Select ext partition and choose either ext2/3/4 : 512mb,swap:0
3.Toggle usb connection and place devoid.franco and the kernel zip files onto your sd card.
4.Select flash and flash devoid.franco first then flash the kernel.You do not need to toggle signature verify as it should have signatured. If you are a ***** then carry on and toggle signature verify.
5.Reboot.
Enjoy

There's an option where it says "wipe" when you are in your recovery boot you should enter that category and wipe what the developer says.
Also there should be a guide of how to flash cm7 onto your phone in the thread itself
There shouldn't be any problem .
Do you mean you do not know how to enter recovery boot menu?
If so, open your terminal emulator and type
su
reboot recovery
It will reboot your phone to recovery boot.
Then wipe what the developer asks you to wipe,
make the partition on your sd card wether its ext2/3/4
Then flash it.

Hello :
I am going to be flashing my droid phone for the first time (nOOb), and I want to make sure I will doing it correctly.
I have gathered what I believe to be the correct information, and have listed it below.
I am hoping someone can look at the steps to make sure everything is correct and in order.
If I am missing something, or if something does not look right, could you please correct, ammend, or add as necessary.
This would be a tremendous help to me, and I would greatly appreciate it.
Thank you.
1. Root phone using SuperOneClick v2.3.3
A. Install the USB driver for your phone onto your PC
B. Enable USB debugging mode on phone
C. Download and install Java SE developers kit
D. Download and install Android SDK developers kit
E. Connect phone to computer using USB
F. Download and install SuperOneClick v2.3.3
G. Make sure your SD card is NOT mounted
H. Press "Root"
I. Wait for "Success" confirmation
2. Install ClockworkMod Recovery via ROM manager
A. Download and install ClockworkMod ROM Manager
B. Once installed, open ROM Manager
C. Press "Flash ClockworkMod Recovery"
D. Reboot or Power Off
3. Perform a Nandroid backup (full system backup)
A. Make sure you have an install SD card and you have enough free space available on the SD card
B. Open ROM manager and hit reboot to recovery
C. A pop up will ask if you want to reboot into recovery, press OK
D. Phone will reboot and boot into ClockworkMod Recovery
E. Once in CWR, use volume up and down buttons to scroll up and down the menu list
F. Scroll down to "backup and restore"
G. Press "n" button to enter or go to nex sub-menu
H. Press "backup" to start the nandroid backup process
I. Once complete, you will be brought back to the main menu and it will read "Backup complete!"
J. Now scroll up or down to "reboot system now" and press "n" to execute.
K. Once booted and back to Home screen, open your favorite file browser
L. Make you way to your SD card: folder /clockworkmod/backup/(date of backup)
M. Check to see if you have files files: boot image, cache image, date image, nandroid check file, and system image. (note: Usually you will also see a recovery.img (image) file, which is the file that holds the backup for the recovery utility itself. You will see this files with most custom ROM packages.)
Are the above steps correct? Am I missing anything, or is something incorrect?
Thank you!
All is ok with the steps 2 and 3, but in the step 1 isn't necessary to install the Java SE Dev Kit or the Android SDK, SuperOneClick comes with all the necessary tools
I have a Motorola Moto E(XT1022). I bought it recently and just when I first started it, I got the 4.4.4 kitkat update and so I downloaded it right away. Then I realised one of the biggest problems of Moto E i.e. 2.2 gb storage. So i dug into find how to install apps on sd card and got to know that you have to root the phone. On xda, I found various ways to root but they were only for the 4.4.2 version of the phone and others were update to 4.4.4 on aldready rooted devices. Please tell me the way to root my device. Also as I am new to this, I dont understand any words like bootloader, fast recovery, etc. Please help me. Thank you in advance.
Edit: Can I use the way given by deej_roamer in his post here:http://forum.xda-developers.com/show....php?t=2755336
Edit: I am sorry to have posted this in the general section. I don't know how to move it now to the questions section. Sorry again.
Thank You DAVI FELICANO and deej_roamer for their help. I have now successfully rooted my phone. If someone else has a problem, go to Page 2 for the solution.
You can use the defalt method, dont need to change anything.
Who told you that you need root to move apps to sd card?
Once you insert sd card you will get an option in settings/apps to move apps to sd card for those that can be moved.
This is though limited to Apks only and data is still kept in internal sd card.
If this option is not enough for you then you can go the advanced wag by rooting and using gl2sd or link2sd like apps.

You can install only one game due to it's low internal memory. By one game I mean high graphics game. The obb file remains in the internal storage even after moving to SD card. I tried many things like making SD card default storage using SDK tools but to no Vail. Guess the only way now is to root it & use apps like gl2sd

2. Next install it in a folder and remember that folder. Also, make sure you select the option of "Create shortcut on Desktop" during installation.
3. Next download CWM recovery from this thread - http://forum.xda-developers.com/moto-e/general/root-moto-e-rooting-flashing-recovery-t2802971 (Click on the "CWM 6.0.4.9 recovery For MOTO E" link in the thread)
4. Copy the "cwm6.0.4.9_recover.img" file to the installation folder of fastboot.
5. Next download SuperSU v2.02 from here - http://download.chainfire.eu/452/SuperSU/UPDATE-SuperSU-v2.02.zip (Click on "UPDATE-SuperSU-v2.02.zip" link)
6. Don't Extract Supersu zip file.
7. Connect phone to pc. Copy the zip file to your internal memory(the directory of int. memory is /sdcard) (The directory for ext. sd card is /storage/sdcard1).
8. Remove your phone from your pc.
9. Switch off your device.
10. Turn on your device by holding power off button and volume down button together for 6-7 seconds. Quickly connect your phone to your pc.
11. The bootloader must be showing usb connected.
12. Run fastboot from your desktop.
13. Now type this (without quotes) - "fastboot flash recovery cwm6.0.4.9_recovery.img"
14. Look at the screen of device. It must be showing "Mismatched partition size (recovery)". It is normal don't worry.
15. Press volume down once (recovery will be selected) and then volume up so that it goes into recovery.
16. It will show the bootloader unlocked warning. Don't worry about it.
17. Your phone should now be in CWM recovery.
18. Don't do anything except what I tell you.
19. In this menu movement is done by the volume rockers ans selection by power button.
20. Press volume down so that "install zip" is selected.
21. Press power button.
22. Select "choose zip from /sdcard". Press power button.

28. Open your menu(in the phone) and find SuperSu app (a # symbol will be there in its icon).
29. Disconnect your device from the pc.
CONGRATULATIONS YOU HAVE A ROOTED MOTO E.
If you ever wish to flash any other recovery (like twrp),
1. Copy the file to the fastboot installation folder in your pc.
2. Then reboot your device into bootloader and quickly connect it to your pc.
3. Run fastboot from your desktop and then type the following without quotes: "fastboot flash recovery cwm6.0.4.9_recovery.img"
4. Instead of writing "cwm6.0.4.9_recovery.img" write the complete file name including extension. For eg. if file name is "twrp_recovery_2" and has extension ".img" then write "fastboot flash recovery twrp_recovery_2.img"
I hope that this solved your problem brother.

3. Run fastboot from your desktop and then type the following without quotes: "fastboot flash recovery cwm6.0.4.9_recovery.img"
4. Instead of writing "cwm6.0.4.9_recovery.img" write the complete file name including extension. For eg. if file name is "twrp_recovery_2" and has extension ".img" then write "fastboot flash recovery twrp_recovery_2.img"
I hope that this solved your problem brother.

I followed the thread by deej_roamer here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2755336
Try out my steps:
[Your phone battery must be at least 75%]
1. First download "Fastboot" from the thread. (Click on the "mfastboot-v2" link in the thread)
2. Next install it in a folder and remember that folder. Also, make sure you select the option of "Create shortcut on Desktop" during installation.
3. Next download CWM recovery from this thread - http://forum.xda-developers.com/moto-e/general/root-moto-e-rooting-flashing-recovery-t2802971 (Click on the "CWM 6.0.4.9 recovery For MOTO E" link in the thread)
4. Copy the "cwm6.0.4.9_recover.img" file to the installation folder of fastboot.
5. Next download SuperSU v2.02 from here - http://download.chainfire.eu/452/SuperSU/UPDATE-SuperSU-v2.02.zip (Click on "UPDATE-SuperSU-v2.02.zip" link)
6. Don't Extract Supersu zip file.
7. Connect phone to pc. Copy the zip file to your internal memory(the directory of int. memory is /sdcard) (The directory for ext. sd card is /storage/sdcard1).
8. Remove your phone from your pc.
9. Switch off your device.
10. Turn on your device by holding power off button and volume down button together for 6-7 seconds. Quickly connect your phone to your pc.
11. The bootloader must be showing usb connected.
12. Run fastboot from your desktop.
13. Now type this (without quotes) - "fastboot flash recovery cwm6.0.4.9_recovery.img"
14. Look at the screen of device. It must be showing "Mismatched partition size (recovery)". It is normal don't worry.
15. Press volume down once (recovery will be selected) and then volume up so that it goes into recovery.
16. It will show the bootloader unlocked warning. Don't worry about it.
17. Your phone should now be in CWM recovery.
18. Don't do anything except what I tell you.
19. In this menu movement is done by the volume rockers ans selection by power button.
20. Press volume down so that "install zip" is selected.
21. Press power button.
22. Select "choose zip from /sdcard". Press power button.
23. Find the SuperSU.zip file(It will probably be in the "0/" folder)
24. It will ask to confirm install. Select Yes.
25. SuperSU will be installed.
26. Select CWM reboot. When you select CWM reboot, it will display "root access possibly lost - Fix?". PLEASE Select "No".
27. Your phone will now reboot. (The bootloader unlocked warning will be shown and then the boot animation).
28. Open your menu(in the phone) and find SuperSu app (a # symbol will be there in its icon).
29. Disconnect your device from the pc.
CONGRATULATIONS YOU HAVE A ROOTED MOTO E.
If you ever wish to flash any other recovery (like twrp),
1. Copy the file to the fastboot installation folder in your pc.
2. Then reboot your device into bootloader and quickly connect it to your pc.
3. Run fastboot from your desktop and then type the following without quotes: "fastboot flash recovery cwm6.0.4.9_recovery.img"
4. Instead of writing "cwm6.0.4.9_recovery.img" write the complete file name including extension. For eg. if file name is "twrp_recovery_2" and has extension ".img" then write "fastboot flash recovery twrp_recovery_2.img"

Is your recovery.img placed in the "C:\Program Files (x86)\Minimal ADB and Fastboot"?
It need to placed in it or you'll get an error.
Boot loader is LOCKED !! cannot be unlocked !! so no root for me ?
Your comprehensive guide to rooting the NC5 and fixing it if/when something goes wrong
To start out I found it very time consuming to find the 'right' information on rooting the NC5 or that it wasn't possible. So I went on the mission to see if i get what was out in the wild to work.
Well I figured it out and I hope this helps!
Step One: Charge your phone! In the event we need to use Odin to fix a boot-loop/soft-brick.
Step Two: Check your version number. As the title suggests this method is only for Verizon Galaxy S4 NC5!
(ENABLE USB DEBUGGING AND UNKNOWN SOURCES IN SETTINGS BEFORE PROCEEDING)
Step Three: Time to download the tools we will need to get this done. Place these files on your SD card. This is the only time you will need your computer. CLICK IT> ONE STOP SHOP
Towel Root: Okay, this is version 1 of the app. I know there are newer versions but they don't work and this does so use it. Select and install. Open the app and select 'make it rain', your phone will reboot and base root has been achieved!
Super User: Select and install. Open the app and install the SU binary at the prompt. The app will also ask to disable KNOX, if you do the app might hang. Home button out and try again after a reboot. Eventually it will work though a bit funky at times.
Safe Strap: Select and install. Open the app and select 'install recovery'. After it installs reboot to the recovery by selecting 'reboot to recovery'. When the recovery loads select the backup option and make a backup!
This is our recovery and allows nandroid backups(you should have done this) and flashing of safestrap ROMs. The bootloader is locked on this phone so no flashing of CM11 or any custom kernels. Do some research before you start flashing things!
Well that was easy! Now you have a rooted and safestrapped NC5 S4!
FAQ\INFO
This recovery is BETA and does not support ROM slots. Everything must be done on the STOCK slot. MAKE A BACKUP!
Nandroid backup and restore is working completely with this recovery!
If you remove Samsung Hub auto rotation will break. Attached is the library file that fixes this. Extract libgnustl_shared.so from the attached zip. Copy and paste to System\Lib and change permission to rw-r--r--. I use Root Explorer, though not free is a very good file manager. There are free alternatives on Google Play.
CREDITS DUE!
HASHCODES< Safe Strap!
CHAINFIRE< Super SU!
GEOHOT< Towel Root!
Thank you for your work. But I have a few major points to address with this:
1. There is a newer, stable SAFESTRAP out (3.75), this one also supports ROM slots, and doesn't corrupt the Non-HLOS Partition.
2. Version 3 of TowelRoot is out, and alot more stable/clean than Version 1.
3. SAFESTRAP really should be installed after busybox is installed, which you did not recommend.
The Samsung Hub Auto Rotation bug is a very nice find though! Thank you for that.
Hey thank you! I will update accordingly.
However TowelRootv3 would not root my phone. I tried changing the strings, the app just states the phone isn't supported.
Hi Guys,
I'm hoping someone can help me here with unbricking my daughters Nabi 2 tablet.
The long story short is that I've tried to update to the latest OTA with TWRP 2.3.3.0 (Nabi 1.9.37) and gapps installed in the past (in order to have google play services).
After downloading the OTA and successfull file verification it booted into TWRP mode and this is when things went wrong...
As I wasn't sure about how to even leave the TWRP mode I have hit few things by accident (I think one of them asked me if I want to wipe my ROM and I said YES + when I was after that trying to reboot the tablet it gave me a warning saying something like "you have no OS installed - are you sure to reboot?).
Now, of course due to my stupid actions it doesn't work - stuck on Nabi boot logo and when I try to pres Volume+ and Power together it gives me the screen with 4 options to choose from (Boot Normally, Fastboot Protocol, Recovery Kernel, Forced Recovery) but I still can't select/move the highlighted item. All what I'm able to do now is to power it off by holding the power button pressed for couple seconds.
Based on your experience here - is there anything that can be done or is it a "real brick" and we need to buy something new for her?
Thank you for any suggestions.
Hi,
I managed to boot into TWRP somehow...
Could someone please direct me how I can re-flash it with a Nabi 2 UK OS (and where I can source the file from if possible at all)?

Try sections 9 and 10. http://forum.xda-developers.com/nabi-2/general/nabi-information-t3229119
Hi,
Using NabiLab I managed to load stock 1.9.37 through TWRP.
At the moment tablet will start, let me through the initial setup wizard and go into normal mode from when it was new (no Google services available).
When I try to install gapps (TWRP mode) using NabiLab it goes into endless boot loop showing just a splash screen of the screen lock and reloads again.
I tried also bringing it more to factory condition but it is not recognised in NabiLab when android is fully booted (even though PC can see it). I tried different drivers but without too much luck. When in TWRP mode it comes up as Alcatel ADB Device and when adroid is booted it comes up as a storage device rather than ADB.
I feel I'm pretty close but I need just a hint how to solve it finally without bricking it for real...
Cheers

Pretty hard to brick a Nabi2.
Why did you choose 1.9.37? Isn't the latest 2.3.2 and already has Gapps?
When in Android do you have ADB turned on in Developer options?
Is this the procedure you used?
a) Download the ROM for your device in section 10
b) Boot to TWRP (see above for instructions)
c) Do a backup of just the boot partition in TWRP.
- Click Restore tab
- Just check "boot" and nothing else.
- Swipe to Backup
d) Eject the external SD from the tablet and place in the computer
- Note: You should unmount the card from the mount tab in TWRP before ejecting it. (Uncheck the box next to external SD)
e) Connect the SD card to you computer
f) On the SD card navigate to the folder TWRP/BACKUPS/XXXX. XXX is a serial number unique to your Nabi.
g) Make a new folder and call in whatever you want. So it should now look like TWRP/BACKUPS/XXX/yourfolder
h) Unzip the ROM file you downloaded in to the "yourfolder" you created above. The files should look like ext4.system.win, emmc.boot.win, ext.addon.win, etc. Inside the the "yourfolder" directory.
i) Download the bootloader zip for your device from section 10
j) Copy it to the external SD in a location you will remember. This will be for the bootloader update.
k) Eject the SD card from your computer (safely eject it)
l) Install SD card in Nabi
- After inserted in tablet go to TWRP mount tab and check the box to mount the SD card
m) Go to restore tab, and find the backup under the "yourfolder" you made and unzipped the files to.
n) You should be able to select boot, system, and addon and skip the others.
o) If everything restores then go to TWRP install tab, find the bootloader.zip you downloaded and install it.
p) Reboot

Hi aicjofs,
I followed the steps above except step c which I haven't done.
So it looked good with the NabiLab built in 1.9.37 and it seemed to load fine with my TWRP 2.3.3.0 but it was hgoing into this endless boot loop after trying to install gapps. BTW I went for 1.9.37 as it came with NabiLab and turned right.
After your reply I've donwloaded the 232UK stock rom and bootloader. Copied both onto SD card - at that stage it would let me do a restore directly from the SD card so I've copied the 232UK rom into internal memory. Restore process went OK and at the end I've installed its dedicated bootloader...
Right now the situation is that I can only boot into TWRP but restore doesn't show any available roms (both internal or external memory) even though there is backup folder on the SD card.
What worries me the most is when I go to advanced / file manager / sdcard (internal memory) in TWRP mode it doesn't show any files or folders there. When I try to dipslpay tablet information in NabiLab it shows the external SD card properties properly (capacity/free space) but on the internal memory it says "Size df:KB Free can'tKB used find".
Does it mean it has wiped all the internal memory down to zero? Would this be the reason for recovery no being able to identify the roms on external SD card too?
Looking at the log in TWRP mode it is filled with entries like
E:Unable to mount '/data'
E:Unable to mount '/cache'
E:Can't open /cache/recovery/last_install
E:Can't open (No such file or directory)
What a pain is this thing, honestly...

You will need to use fastboot to load it. If you have a nabilab folder it already has fastboot available. So using the procedure below you couldn't download the ZIP file I linked in post above. Extract the from the zip the recovery.img or twrp-recovery.img and put it in the nabilab folder. (Im puling the procedure from http://forum.xda-developers.com/nabi-2/general/nabi-information-t3229119 )
1) To load TWRP we will be in the fastboot operational mode(see section 3)
Device powered off:
-Depending on device press and hold the power and vol - keys OR power and vol + key. Some will boot straight to recovery, and others will come to the "bootloader" screen. We want the bootloader.
-To enter fastboot use vol+ and vol- to highlight and select fastboot protocol. (Device will need to be plugged in to computer and fastboot driver installed before the screen will change)
Device powered on:
-Use ADB and execute from the command line:
Code:
adb reboot-bootloader
2) USB plugged in and Fastboot/Bootoader Driver loaded(see section 4) verify with windows device manager if needed.
3) Download the TWRP zip file for your device from TWRP list below(see section 8)
4) Extract the file to the location your are running your command prompt(see section 6)
-The file will be called twrp-recovery.img or recovery.img
5) Depending on the name of the file in step 4, load TWRP by typing at the command prompt:
Code:
fastboot flash recovery recovery.img
or
Code:
fastboot flash recovery twrp-recovery.img

Hi,
Thank you very much for your help but it clearly looks that this is way beyond my knowledge on how to use all of these fastboot, command, adb and so on...
I regret I ever touched the thing at all.
So there is absolutely no easy way - command line is a must from where I am right now?

Its not a must but easiest to try and walk you through. Which version of Nabilab are you using? You could move some files around and still use Nabilab. Up to you which way to go forward. I'll try and help.

Hi,
I'm not so much afraid of copy/paste for cmd... the biggest fear is that I don't know anything about ADB, fasboot etc. So when your instruction in previous post says use ADB and I purely don't know what it means.
I think if the option is there I'd like to ask if you could help with restoring it with Nabilab.
Thanks a million for your help!

Find the Nabilab folder on your computer. Open the "recovery" folder. Then open the "stock" folder. Inside it there is recovery.img file. Rename it to recoverystock.img.
You downloaded the twrp-recovery-JBNV7AUS.zip from a few posts back. Extract the twrp-recovery.img file and put it in the stock folder. Now rename the twrp-recovery.img file to recovery.img.
Now boot the tablet to TWRP recovery(the one that isn't working) and run Nabilab. Select 4 Install recoveries. Then 4 instal stock recovery. Then reboot in to recovery and see if you have the 2.8.5 recovery

Great!
Your trick worked fine and now I can see TWRP 2.8.5.0 and I have problems with drivers - keeps failing to recognize the tablet.
I'll work on the driver issue or is there something I should know about it with TWRP 2.8.5.0 lodaed?
What is my next step from here as Android is still stuck on Nabi logo (no motion) and I'm afraid to do anything in case I create even bigger mess than I already have
I also noticed when I try to shut it down from inside TWRP it asks me a question if I want to root the tablet (Install super SU) - is it something I should do and at what stage?
Thanks!

I'll work on the driver issue or is there something I should know about it with TWRP 2.8.5.0 lodaed?
What is my next step from here as Android is still stuck on Nabi logo (no motion) and I'm afraid to do anything in case I create even bigger mess than I already have
I also noticed when I try to shut it down from inside TWRP it asks me a question if I want to root the tablet (Install super SU) - is it something I should do and at what stage?
Thanks!

If you can see the files again now with the correct TWRP. You can try to restore the 2.3.2 ROM again. Or maybe try the procedure from post #5 with the 2.2 ROM I linked to in post #7. You don't have to do the bootloader install anymore so skip that step. Installing root doesn't matter, you can choose to install or not.

All happy working as new with 232UK ROM and bootloader loaded with your instructions.
I'd never get this sorted without your specialized help.
If I only could I'd send you something just to say Thank You...
