This is just a new recovery. The next release will address wifi issues and more. Trying to finish it between work, school, family, etc...

So what you're saying is that post was nothing more than a cruel tease.

Got stuck in a boot loop and used the other release knowing the WiFi was I 50/50 gamble. I lost. .. but at least it worked perfectly otherwise

Sort of... but the reason I knocked out the TWRP releases was so that there would be a custom recovery available for installing the new customized Next7P12-8G ROMs that ARE coming NEXT.

I've got just a little testing to do because the single core Meson3 model ROMs are just a little different from the dual core Meson6 ROMs, but I should be able to get these posted by this weekend.

It'll be awesome to be able to use my tablet again on wi-fi, I rooted my tablet as i root all my devices, but i was one of those many ppl in the forum that didn't read that my tablet when doing the change messed up my wi-fi, wrong drivers, but i did this almost probably 2 months ago, will be great when i can use my tablet again, we need to give shout out to shaun for the hard work and one of the only ppl out there who is working on roms and fixes for this tablet when nobody else is or will.

Hi, the app refuses to install on a 7" tablet Yfang Nextbook mod. Next7P12-GP (I-Fun) Android 4.1.1 (rooted, with busybox and terminal installed) manufactured in july 2013, sn # YF081301858.

No worries... I'm currently testing new ROMs for this model and expect to release them very soon.

The board version is YIFANG PHM727MC_GPNTC100
ota verson id: V.2.0.2IML74K.user.root.20130719
cpu - armeabi-v7a
Jellybean 4.1.1

The sole problem I have is still that apps do not move to the SD. Checked on previous model (without the HDMI) - all is ok.
Still hesitate to mess with the system wthout any (and reliable) full recovery.

Are you trying to move apps to the external SD card? I don't think I can do anything about that...

Have you tried TWRP yet?

no, to the build-in. But they all stuck in the internal memory as well s ownloads and updates, I can't istall mor than a dozen on apps. Even some updates can't be done.

Some apps can't be moved at all and others only partially move... are you using the system settings app section to move them? Are you getting an error?

Yes, getting error. Everytime says "couldn't move app". Memory is quick filled. Before You said that this is an option to be enabled in the original build and a custom ROM might be needed.

I already checked this but the board is not the same. Anyway I will try then if this works for me.

Have you checked the storage settings to verify that the internal SD card is mounted and not full?

We've been already through this. Yes it is mounted and nearly empty. No problem with read/write. just all apps and programm downloads are on the system memory and filling it completely.

Yesterday i've tried with the android sdk and the command "adb shell pm set-install-location 0/1/2", where 0=auto, 1=internal storage, 2=external,but no success. Actually "pm get-install-location" shows 2, but I get the same error message. And in the settings/apps the USB storage app is 0.00B and SD card also at 0.00B.

Appearently this command has many other options what should be moved to the SD.

In settings / storage you should have the following:

Flash (This is your total NAND Flash Memory and may indicate how much is used by firmware)

App Storage or Internal Storage (this is your /data partition, on an 8GB tablet it should be nearly 1 GB total, on a 4GB tablet it should be nearly 500 MB)

NAND Storage or another Internal SD Card (this is your internal SD Card, on an 8 GB tablet it should be about 5.5 GB total, on a 4GB tablet it should be about 2.5 GB total)

SD Card or External SD Card(This is your external SD card - you can't install Apps here)

USB Storage (This is for external USB drives - You can't install apps here either)
