You may now flash it to your device using SP Flash Tool v5.1532 or through fastboot. I dunno if it's necessary to unlock the bootloader but it shouldn't hurt to try. ## Issues/Caveats -* Screen orientation is in portrait, yet the touchscreen insists otherwise for whatever reason. Any suggestions on getting this sorted out would be highly appreciated. +* TWRP insists on a portrait orientation. Not sure how to make it landscape as using a landscape theme merely slaps said theme without rotating the screen. Oh well. * Encryption is enabled by default on this tablet, and as such you may have to wipe data due to password issues. Looking into forcibly disabling it through Magisk or something. :/ +## Todo +* Versions for other variants i.e. the aforementioned licenced character releases. +* And whilst I'm at it, themes to go with each character. Sure is surreal to see a Barbie-themed TWRP, eh? :P + ## Downloads -There aren't any public releases atm due to the aforementioned issues. But yeah this repo's too good to pass up in case I need to send the sources for others to peek into and improve upon. +You may download the initial recovery releases for the vanilla SE here: https://github.com/huckleberrypie/android_device_Mattel_NabiSE/releases + +## Special thanks +Major props to neporood for the friendship and advice, Kevin Giles who generously donated a bunch of SEs and volunteered to mess them up for science, diplomatic@XDA for being the ultimate MTK fanboi and schooling yours truly about the inner workings of MediaTek devices, my pals at the American Girl collectors groups (Molly, Shannon, Amy...), and to everyone else worth thanking. ;)
