I need a Kids launcher for Nexus 7 - Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I apologize if this thread is in the wrong spot. I usually use xda to search for problems and not post problems of my own.
Anyway, I have a Nexus 7 2013 edition that I want to give to my girlfriends daughter. She is only 3 but uses an elipses 7 from verizon now and loves it. I know she will be comfortable with the Nexus 7 as it is but I was really wanting to put a kid friendly launcher on it for her. I have owned the nabi 2 and Im also getting her the nabi big tab since walmart had it for $189. but I was wanting to know if someone has tried putting a nabi rom on the nexus or the nabi kids mode apk on it. I have tried some free ones from the play store but in order to lock it in kids mode, I have to pay a monthly fee and I think its dumb. So if anyone could help me out here then that would be greatly appreciated!

Don't waste your time complaining on B&N facebook page...

They are censoring and pruning criticism. They deleted my post that outlined several disappointments. The post was not inflammatory or insulting at all. It just outlined issues I had with the device, and why I was disappointed with the purchase.
I touched on locked bootloader, 1GB restriction, and not being able to sideload apps via the SD card.
I know they are entitled to censor their page, but that's really disappointing.
No surprises there. It's all about corporate image and they are fighting against Amazon right now.
We could make our own Facebook page to voice our disappointments. They couldn't delete that. Just a thought.

I totally would if I still had a vested interest in this product. I decided to take mine back and grab the Galaxy Tab 7 plus, and not because of the locked boot loader or issues with it. TBH, I have total confidence that it will get rooted and there will be development, it just takes time. Personally it's been their support and attitude that turned me off. The BN support told me to take it to the store and I could get it partitioned, drove all the way there (which is about 30 min away), and everyone there had no idea what I was talking about. One semi-knowledgeable person said I could only repartition if it was a NC.
That kinda stuff really bothers me. I'd rather spend the extra $, at least I know what I'm getting with a Samsung product.
The Galaxy Tab 7.0 Plus has already been rooted.

I know. I was talking about the NT getting rooted eventually.
One thing that annoys me is that after the Color was rooted, B&N marketing made a huge deal about it being a tablet. Not that they mentioned rooting, but they did ride the tablet buzz. And how did they thank the community that made that possible?
I've bought lots more Kindle books than Nook books, and I see that trend continuing in spite of it being so much less annoying to have put the Nook app on my Kindle Fire than the Kindle app on my Nook Tablet.
So, I just checked the B&N face book page and there are many posts including mine. Mine specifically got...a little spirited.(some one on the internet thinks i was wrong. REALLY felt the need to inform me of that.)

I got it today at Best Buy. I think it was worth the extra $. The good thing about buying it at BB right now is I have until Jan 24th 2012 to return it. So basically risk free for 2 months. I love their holiday return policy.

[Q] Possible to transfer Andoid tapfish saved game to iphone4?

Hi,Is it possible to transfer Android tapfish saved game data to an iphone4?I just bought an iphone4 for my daughter cause it has more games then droid but shes really far in tapfish and doesnt wanna lose her data. Is it possible to get the saved data from the samsung galaxy s 2 into an iphone 4??? Any help is greatly appreciated! Thanks in advance!
Nobody knows if this is possible??lol C'mon the iphone is for my daughter not me shes 11 have some mercy on the kid she likes games lol. I'm an android guy got a nexus 7 on the way and I'm keeping her gs2. The poor kid wants to keep her tapfish nobody knows if I can use the save game data from the android on an iphone? Just her in game stuff doesn't have to be the app itself? Thanks again!
Why can't she just play it on your phone?
She'll get tired of it soon.
Dude shes been collecting fish for almost a year!she's got exclusive holiday fish and such a hundred tanks! She's 11. She loves it dont think she'll get tired of it anytime soon.
I wish android was able to get more games cause she loves her sgs2 but it just doesn't have as many games! which is total crap! if you go on itunes there are way more games then android including alot of exclusives which just isn't right and is the only reason I could ever think of for choosing an iphone over a good droid.

Well, Android ain't made for gaming
I have never tried to do this kind of thing before. I have transferred my save spot from voice of the vampire for ios to my android version and vice versa. But it would depend on how the game is coded. You would need to see how the ios game handles save data for that game . And see if it would work with android.
I am on vacation right now, waiting for my plane actually. I can try to take a look at it to see if I can figure it out at some point tomorrow after work, but that's about 24 good from now.
Try to be a little more patient, it looks like you responded to your original post 6 and a half hours after your original post, sometimes it takes the people who know your answer a day or so to come online to read it.
I'll let you know what I find out as soon as I can.

Well XDA Q&A is huge and you never get an answer, so you bump the thread so that people can see that you exist.

I tried searching for tap fish on my iPod touch, and my wife's iPhone 4, I found tap fish 2 and tap fish seasons. Is tap fish still available? Or are you using one of these other ones?

No idea man. Just got this thing and I can't even get a damn signal on it! I'm not giving my little girl this p.o.s. if it cant call or message. My android always has good signal.Is the Iphone known for piss poor signal issues?? Its rediculous I even took it to the att store and replaced with another sim still horrible!!
Update: I will never buy an iphone ever again its being returned as we speak! But thanks to everyone who tried helping me out!!

when you upgrade in the future what do you plan to do with your s3?

The s3 totally bought me over on both android and touch wiz so it is unlikely thay I'd upgrade to a windows phone device add I previously thought... Probably to the galaxy s4or s5, and when that day comes ill finally root the s3 and use it with either some flashy custom rom(break my android flashing virginity), nexus style pure android or some experiment like the ubuntu mobile rom, and keep it as my second phone, give my current second phone, iphone 4s to my mother who is upset I didn't give her my old htc hd7 but have it to my brother.
what will you do? Sell your s3? Keep it as a second phone? Hack the hell out of it for fun? Give it to a relative? Destroy it?
although you don't know what the market will be like, what do you predict yourself upgrading to?

The S3 will be sold for less than half the paid price (don't know why this depreciation cost) and I'll get the S4.
Give it to my mom
Sell it
Give it to my wife, probably. Don't know why she hates my S3 and absolutely adores her N8. Maybe then she'll see the light... :silly:

I'm gonna sell it soon.
But next time I buy a phone I won't trust all these reviews like I did for the S3.
No reviews ever mentioned slowness issues with the Galaxy s3 (MMS/SMS app, Gallery app, music problems when running chrome etc...)
I will never buy a samsung phone again. I'm done with Touchwizz slowness.
However if Samsung decides to release a GSIV running stock android maybe i'll change my mind. :good:
I'm getting Google's "X Phone" and selling this.

Howdy from the not so new guy

I have went without a phone in favor of the Note 8 and 10.1 tablets the last year but came back home.
Owned Note and Note 2 and I can say this 3 is damn near perfect. A birthday gift from the wife.
Was gonna get the 4 but there is not enough there to warrant the extra cash for me anyway.
If not mentioned before , get the app My stylus Beta. Trust me, you will fall more in love with this phone than ever . It is that good an app.
Anyway, good to be back and I will see you peoples around.
Oh, and if you have any questions I will do my best to help no matter what. I have screwed with phones since my Hero rooting days.

I guess im using an upgrade today...AT&T....which would yall get if you had a choice

Kinda leaning towards the note 8 but havent really done much research, i just need a phone asap since this is kinda lame having no phone.
Old phone was a nexus 5 running nethunter. Really was hoping there would be something i could put nethunter on that was offered straight from AT&T but there isnt and i have a huge credit with them that for some reason keeps growing so i might as well use it.
If you could pick any AT&T phone which would you get.
