what version of the OS are you running ICS or JB?
I'd say download whatever version ROM you are running (ICS or JB) and put it onto an SD card in a "backup" folder formatted for the OS you have and then do a restore from TWRP.
I had a similar issue -- I think when I was installing the JB version of TWRP I also tried to change the screen lock image not realizing that the process had changed for JB. I had a complete mess and I also had the NO OS INSTALLED messages at one point..
What I did (note I had Jellybean on my Nabis, so this is biased towards working with JB):
1. Make sure TWRP 2.6.3.0 for Jellybean is on the Nabi.
2. Download the stock 2.3.11 ROM from the Nabi wiki site and unzip it into a folder on your PC.
3. Next you need to copy the 4 recovery files from your PC to your SD card. I put the SD card into my PC and copied the files over putting them into a TWRP back up folder on the SD card. Now, in order for Jellybean TWRP to recognize the backup, I had to fool it into thinking I had a "good" existing Jellybean TWRP backup and rename the TWRP backup folders to something like this:
TWRP\BACKUPS\0f41000001000000\2014-01-24--09-54-07 JRO03C\
4. Put the SD card back into the Nabi and then boot into TWRP mode.
5. Do a restore from there.
It *should* install a clean fresh copy of Jellybean on the Nabi. It does take what seems like an eternity for it to get past the spinning circle with the NABI logo when it's loading for the first time so be patient.

I am one of the lucky ones who got their tablet from woot/amazon for $280.
I got it in yesterday and absolutely hated the Tap Tap interface.
Naturally, I wanted to install a new ROM. I could only get the TnT Lite to install, but still not what I wanted. I tried Vegan and G-Harmony and I got the dreaded 3 bird screen. I downloaded and successfully installed 3588 and rebooted it. I noticed the ClockworkMod is no longer on there, which is no problem.
I followed the directions to install Clockwork and ROMS from here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=865245
I, for some reason, decided to install Vegan again w/o clockwork installed.
I mounted the internal memory card, copied he ROM over as update.zip with the Recovery folder and the command file set to install from SDCARD. A reboot later and now I am stuck at the 3 birds...
I was able to do the Power +Vol and get the "Recovery key detected" message and it seems to load something, hitting the home button gives me the verbose which indicated that it was trying to install something off SDCARD2.
I have tried 3588, clockworkmod and Vegan as update zip on the external SD card with the Recovery folder command file pointing to SDCARD2.
When booting into Recovery, the verbose says: "FORMATTING MISC... REBOOTING..." takes about 4 seconds to complete, reboots and back to the 3 birds screen.
So, how do I [email protected]#$ myself here?
UPDATE!
I got my tablet to boot into CWM!! I ended up putting the MicroSD version of CWM and held down the Power +Vol longer that normal, saw the Android text and it installed the update.zip.
I tried in vain to boot into CWM, but it would re-install the update.zip. *Head smack* took out the SD card and now it boots into CWM!
Now, to try to install a ROM w/o those damn 3 bird screen...
Bootlogo not part of a ROM
You can replace the birds logo, but it is not part of a ROM. Search for replace boot logo, but make sure you know the correct partition to push your custom logo too. Read the entire thread when you find it first. There are tools out there that will let you back up your partitions, I highly recommend doing that first. Search for backup bct and look for PooR's thread and tools.

The boot logo is not my issue, it's just that it does not go past it no matter what non-TnT ROM I try to install.
I just want to install anything other than the factory OS or a modified factory OS (no disrespect to the dev who made TnT Lite).
I started another thread on my troubles getting a new ROM on there:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=13113438
Just got back into ROMs again, but made a few mistakes.
I was attempting to install Cyanogenmod
Got the Boot.img file to work, however I realized I didn't add the files to install the ROM, into the SD folder.
(Went into the "install" option on TWRP, but there are no files to install at all)
Now my phone just boots up to the splash logo, and stays there. Any way to fix it?
Note: Already tried RUU, I get the version error like everyone else. I don't know what else to do.

Create a folder "0" on the sd card and put the file in there. You can also side load in recovery it just takes forever to transfer the ROM.

Thank you for the side load recovery. That managed to work, however I encountered another problem.
I am now stuck on the cyanogen 10.1.3 screen, same deal as before.
I've tried everything to solve this:
Deleted cache, factory reset
Made sure I had correct kernal
Etc.
Please, really need to use my phone. Thank you for the help.
Extract the kernel (boot.img) from the ROM file and flash it from your pc using fastboot. Rom doesn't boot is typically due to wrong kernel, maybe it failed to flash from recovery. You are s-off, correct?
I have a Nabi 2 UK for my son and had GAPPS installed but stayed on the 1.9.37 version as the OAT would not work.
I now see that I can get the tablet up to 4.1 and get GAPPS as well but I seem to be defeated at the last step every turn but the 'dead' android on it's back.
I don't have the original back up to start from.
I've gone to the 1937 stock image and via TWRP, the OAT'ed to 2.1, but the second 2.3 update fails with the dead android
I've tried 2311 which also fails in the same way.
I've seen some conversations on these boards but the file outlined are often out of bandwith and I can't comment on the threads to ask for help.
So now I'm back to 1.9.37 but I also can't seem to reinstate GAPP using Nabi Labs tools I as it braks the nabi mode and the tablet won't work.
All in all this is turing out to be a massive waste of time. Any suggestions how I can salavge this?
Cheers

Hi.
I had a similar issue (US ROM though). I had dead Android guys, messages in TWRP that I didn't have an operating system installed and all kinds of other issues. I really thought that I had bricked the Nabi as I was up against a wall and nothing I was finding online was working.
I have posted this before elsewhere -- this is what I did to get out of it:
I think when I was installing the JB version of TWRP I also tried to change the screenlock image not realizing that the process had changed for JB. I had a complete mess with very similar if not identical issues as you.
What I did:
1. Make sure TWRP 2.6.3.0 for Jellybean is on the Nabi.
2. Download the stock 2.3.11 ROM from the Nabi wiki site and unzip it into a folder on your PC.
3. Next you need to copy the 4 recovery files from your PC to your SD card. I put the SD card into my PC and copied the files over putting them into a TWRP back up folder on the SD card. Now, in order for Jellybean TWRP to recognize the backup, I had to fool it into thinking I had a "good" existing Jellybean TWRP backup and rename the TWRP backup folders to something like this:
TWRP\BACKUPS\0f41000001000000\2014-01-24--09-54-07 JRO03C\
4. Put the SD card back into the Nabi and then boot into TWRP mode.
5. Do a restore from there.
It *should* install a clean fresh copy of Jellybean on the Nabi. It does take what seems like an eternity for it to get past the spinning circle with the NABI logo when it's loading for the first time so be patient.
You may need to alter some of this since you are in the UK though.. but the main suggestion is to put whatever copy of the ROM onto an SD card (remember to follow the correct directory format for either ICS or JB) and then restore via TWRP to get you running.

Thanks for the outline. Sorry if I'm being a bit dim but how do I get the 2.6.3.0 TWRP onto it?
I've got the NaviLabs GUI and TWRP'd up to v 2.6.1.0 but need to get the Jelly Bean version.
I've tried the zip install with twrp-recovery-JBNV7AUS-263 but it just breaks TWRP and won't boot.
Thanks again.

Good advice. Thanks for the TWRP instructions,
I can now get the TWRP v2.6.3.0 on, but only the ICS version will boot, The Jelly bean install won't bring up the TWRP screens. I've even tried updating to 2311 from the ICS version and then trying to update to the TWRP JB version with no joy.
Now I can't even get the nabi to connect to the usb in Nabi Lab GUI This is doing my head in!!!

If going to 2311 you need to update bootloader. That is in the addonfix zip. Then JB twrp should work.

Okay, so I managed to get back to TWRP 2.6.3.0 under ICS. I then install the 2311 rom, which succeeds. As per instructions, before I reboot I go back and try to install the addon zip in TWRP.
But I get an error
'E:Error executing updater binary in zip '/external_sdcard/addonzip'
Error flashing zip '/external_sdcard/addonzip'.
I'm not sure if the error is something with TWRP or the addon.zip.
One of the microsd I have won't show the addonzip and none of the other TWRP recovery roms..and yes I have checked the directory structure.
Any ideas?
Thanks

Okay, I abandoned the addon.zip and went back to 2.1.27 rom and OAT over to get to the last update which failed.
Then installed the OAT2.zip via TWRP and bingo! Now working on Jelly Bean with Google Play - okay it's now the US version but it works
I would caution that the zip install had to be installed on the internal SD not the external one.
But otherwise a BIG thank you to all for building the tools to let me do the update and for your support.

Follow the first link and download NABI2RESIZE. Extract that.
Then in second link download hawkcore.zip and run that bat file.
You will need to setup APX driver.

Right I have got it to boot onto recovery and installed the jellybean bootloader, but now it only boots when I go to recovery abd boot as normal, also when I try to charge it when on it freezes the whole tablet and charges very slowly. Also when I am in recovery and I went to wipe Calvin cache and data it comes up "are you sure, no OS installed" and then when I do wipe it it's says successful but also unable to mount e/ data, no file or folder found. I am also unable to mount the sd card? Sorry for the long post but I wanted to get all the problems in, thanks fir all your help

So you have the ICS bootloader installed if you followed what I said above. You have to use the ICS TWRP. Use that version to do the procedure you first started with. Restore version 2.3 system, boot and addon, then before reboot the Jellybean bootloader.
Sorry for slow response out of town this weekend.

Finally got sorted, just needed to flash twrp 2.3.6, and the issue with charging was just a charger that nabi sent out as a replacement. So all is good, thanks for all the help
Hi,
I have a samsung S3 and I want to update it to lollipop or above as my nexus 5 has started randomly rebooting and I need a phone to use whilst I sort a replacement.
I have been following this guide: wccftech.com/install-aosp-android-5-1-1-lollipop-on-galaxy-s3/ as I'm a bit of a noob when it comes to this custom rom business.
I have rooted the device and installed clockworkmod recovery v6.0.1.2. and copied over the rom and the gapps file to my phone.
I then booted into recovery mode and made a backup of the current setup.
I then did the factory reset and the cache wipe(s) and installed the new zip for lollipop and then the gapps.
This is where I received an error "E: Error in /sdcard/0/0/0/Download/gapps-lp-20150314.zip (status 7) installation aborted".
I figured that I should restore to my backup now but when I press it, the app says that files can't be found.
I can see that the files that I backed up do exist but they appear to have been dumped inside a new directory called /0/0/0 (I think this has got three levels because I've tried this a few times).
Now I can't boot into an OS to get any other roms on the phone and I can't edit the files on there (I googled and saw a possible fix for the gapp status 7) and I can't get clockworkmod to recognise an external SD card so I can copy over a new rom or file to try (I have googled and it's suggested the FAT32 is the format for this phone and my size of SD card (16GB)).
Can anyone offer me some advice on how to get out of this situation?
Thanks
Sounds like you're at a place where you should start exploring using your computer instead of a recovery in order to fix your system.
I recommend using the PC software Odin and installing a stock ROM of your device. (Or perhaps using fastboot)
There's plenty of guides on how to use Odin both here on XDA and on the rest of the internet if you just look around a bit
EDIT: This link contains a (possible) fix for your problem.

Don't use cwm as it is an outdated recovery. Use twrp instead.

I had a look at the link you suggested and it's one of the suggestions that had come up whilst I was googling for a fix. Unfortunately, I don't have any way to get the updated script onto the phone as the phone isn't picked up by my pc whilst it's in this state, and I can't get the recovery tool to recognise the sd card so I can't put it on there either.
I'll take a look at the stock rom or fastboot option and see if I can get back into the phone. Maybe then I can apply the fix in the suggested post.
Thanks

If the phone works in download mode, try to flash a stock rom too.
Update - fixed
Hi all, just wanted to let you know that I fixed the device with the combined advice from here:
I installed TWRP after holding the volume down + power + home buttons and then pressing volume up when the message appears (I can't remember what this mode is called). I then flashed the device with the TWRP image.
After this I rebooted into the TWRP recovery mode (Volume up + home + power and then release power button when the samsung logo appears).
At this point, the device appeared on my windows machine so I could upload a new image to the internal memory.
I decided to copy on CM13 and GApps.
I then wiped the cache, system, data, and davik cache using TWRP, then I installed CM13 and GApps.
After a reboot the device came back up as a new install.
Hopefully that information may be useful to somebody.
Thanks for all your help
