[A511] [29-06-2012] Stock firmwares - Acer Iconia A700 and A510

Possibly it's better to split A510 and A511 stock rom firmware list?
Here's the list of A511 ROMs I have found (looks like just one downloadable so far):
Acer_AV041_A511_0.003.00_WW_GEN1
Acer_AV041_A511_0.008.00_WW_GEN1
Acer_AV041_A511_1.011.00_WW_GEN1 (download here) - translation
Acer_AV041_A511_1.028.00_EMEA_DE
Acer_AV041_A511_1.032.00_WW_GEN1 (available through FOTA on my device)
Acer_AV041_A511_1.035.03_WW_GEN1 (mentioned on benchmark website)
Regards,
Nika.

Added new version:
"Acer_AV041_A511_1.032.00_WW_GEN1 (available through FOTA on my device)"

I'm in a similar boat (bricked my device and somehow need to flash something to have the tablet boot). Can't we just use the firmware linked in the OP? It might not be the german version but I suppose we could still flash it and just change the language or something? Anyway, that's what I'm gonna try as soon as my SD card arrives.

Is it possible, to install the english OS on a "german" tablet?
Or encounter some problems?
English itself, shouldn't be the problem.

I was wondering whether I might get some helpt flashing the "Acer_AV041_A511_1.011.00_WW_GEN1". My Tablet has been bricked for some time because I (stupid as I am) tried to do a factory reset using the recovery provided by nikagl even though he specifically said that we were not to do that (I did read that warning but after a few weeks I just forgot about it :/).
Anyway, I've installed the cmw recovery by nothrills and tried to flash aforementioned firmware. I put it on an external SD card which has been formatted to FAT32. I went to the recovery menu and tried to flash the zip file. However, I got a getprop(product.name) error and the installation was aborted. After browsing the board a bit I found out that I have to delete the line starting with 'assert(getprop("ro.product.name")' which is located in META-INF\com\google\android\. But still, the tablet won't flash the firmware. It simply says "Installation aborted. Status 5 [or 6]".
I've also tried flashing the firmware by going back to stock recovery, renaming the firmware to update.zip and starting the tablet by holding the power and the minus button which is supposed to start the flashing process automatically. However, that just results in a red " ! " and an Android lying on its back.
I'd really appreciate it if someone was able to help me. (I've already sent the tablet to the Acer customer service who said that the installation of cmw recovery has damaged the motherboard. They say they will replace it for ~250€.)

Thank you for trying to help, I really appreciate it .
You have to edit line 1 of the updater-script in META-INF\com\google\android\
Delete this: in assert(getprop("ro.product.name") == "a510_emea_de");
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
That is mostly what I did. Except I used winrar instead of 7zip. The first line of the updater-script was "assert(getprop("ro.product.name") == "a511_ww_gen1");" and I deleted it. When I then try to flash the file it says "E:Error in /external_sd/Acer_AV041_A511_1.011.00_WW_GEN1 - Copy.zip (Status 6)"
I also tried renaming the zip file first but the result was the same.
Edit:
As it turns out, the Status 6 error does only occur when I edit the updater-script file with wordpad. If I open it with the editor it works just fine. I was able to flash the firmware. However, the tablet then wouldn't do anything else then showing "Acer" on the screen for ever and ever and ever and ever :/.

In the case you installed a A510 ROM (without 3G) and can't flash back to the original A511 to be able to upgrade to JB and have a working 3G functionality, cause CWM vomits status 7 or 4 errors while flashing the offered .zip, try this way

Worlds Most Complicated Issue - HELP!

My TF is in a complicated mess because im stupid!
I need your help XDA Community!
My TF was rooted with KRAKD rom. I decided I wanted to unroot my TF and followed what seemed like a popular guide from theunlockr.com
And it worked except it rolled me back to the stone age - 8.2.3.13
Naturally I connected to my WIFI network to update to the latest version but it kept saying that there's no update available so I thought I would give a manual update a try which I have done before so I know I followed the correct procedures.
In asus recovery mode the loading bar pops up for a while then the triangle with the exclamation mark appears. When I booted it a window popped up which read something like "update failed (12)".
Then I tried something I saw in a forum which apparently is another way to do a manual recovery. Renaming the zip file to EP101_SDUPDATE.zip and leaving it on the root of external SD or internal (tried both) and booting in recovery. It didn't work.
So I stupidly thought that I might aswell try rooting it again with nachoroot and flash recovery then flash the latest stock rom. Well what happened was that it rooted but I could not flash CWM following any methods. The one click recovery installer apk didnt work just said file parsing error. Tried doing it through ADB but always eventually leads to permission denied.
So I have a half rooted transformer with 8.2.3.13 on which razor claw and one click recovery cant be installed and I cant update it to the latest firmware.
Device Details:
Model Number: EPAD
Android Version: 3.0.1
GPS Version: V1.2.4
WIFI Version: V5.248.35
Bluetooth Version: V6.12
Kernel Version: 2.6.36.3-00004-g069b8b5 [email protected] #1
Build Number: HRI66.WW_epad-8.2.3.13-20110511
Dont have a mobile dock.
COME ON XDA SEE IF YOU CAN SOLVE THIS ONE!!!
Try to use nflash of any ROM, Revolver for example
Cant believe NVFLASH slipped my mind
I will give it a go
thank you for the suggestion

NVFLASH doesn't seem to detect my device
When I put the TF in APX my computer recognises but when I run NVFLASH it doesn't detect it plus I can hear the Windows 7 disconnect sound only when I run NVFLASH.
The drivers seem to be fine.
did you even install superuser from market after you rerooted?
Get the 8.6.5.23 ROM, put it on your SD card and make 2 copies, name one WW_epad-user-8.6.5.23.zip and name the other EP101_SDUPDATE.zip, I find the first one is good enough, but having multiple copies can't hurt.
Now try to let stock recovery flash your SD card file
That worked for me..(the 8.6.6.23 is for the tf101G, but it works as well on mine which is standard tf101, if you happen to find that one, just name the zip file appropriately)
Let me know if this works, your problem is not complicated BTW haha

[Q] help save my transfomer

so i have a b90 tf101 with .21 which was previously rooted with vipermod. I wanted to avoid flashing cwm until ics came out to keep it as stock as possible for upgrade.
So i was trying to figure out ubuntu installer, and it wouldnt work for some reason, so i figured i might try to reinstall busybox. Anyway somewhere along the line my wifi stopped working it gets stuck on obtaining ip, then i tried factory reset, and wiping all data to fix that issue (didnt work). I then noticed i somehow lost my root access. so i tried rerooting and it keeps saying -exec 'system/bin/sh' failed: no such file or directory.
So i guess my best option is to try to get this thing flashed with stock firmware using stock recovery if possible, and would love an explanation of how to do that (searched for miles online and couldnt find anything about how to use the stock recovery) or if anyone has any other advice it would be much appreciated
Thanx

Well, if you still have cwm and can get to it...you're good. just download the super wipe lite file from the revolution hd thread...download a ROM such as revolution hd...put both in external sd...go to cwm recovery...flash the wipe script...then flash the rom.
Then just wait till ics is out...then flash a custom ics ROM...instead of trying to go stock again and messing things up...cause i bet that there will be a root stock ics rom within hours of release.
thats my problem i never installed cwm. cant i flash a stock rom using the stock recovery? do you know anything about the wifi issue? if not how can i get rid of superuser so i can rma?

After you have download the file from Asus, make sure to extract the files from within. Put it on the root of your sd card.
Power off the TF.
Push and hold Vol down plus power button
As soon as you see words scrolling at the top left corner
Push Vol up immediately (within 5 sec) to get into recovery mode.
Hopefully it read the update file and flash it.
sry hopefully this is the last question. when i extract the file there is a folder called asus inside it with another zip inside that and a blob with some files inside that. Which should i put on the sd card. and by sd card do you mean the internal memory or microsd.
thanks a million for the help
IIRC, after you extract there's an Asus folder, in that folder is an Update folder.
It's the zip inside the Update folder that need to go on the external micro sd card
as a side not the reason that the ubuntu installer id not work is that you have a b90 which it clearly states ubuntu does not work on becasue of sbk2
i could be wrong but im pretty sure it just visualizes ubuntu and doesnt actually install it. anyway thanks for all the help guys it turns out to flash the stock firmware you just put it in the microsd and press the tiny exclamation mark next to the clock on the stock rom. took me forever to figure out, but it fixed everything. I got wifi working, then re-rooted, then flashed team-rogue recover (thanks for that one baseballfanz) as rom manager said it wasnt compatible with tf101, but do u guys know if there is any way to get regular cwm, and finally flashed krakd.
Thanks again to everyone,and let me just say this is one of the most helpful forums i have ever been on

Not sure what the "regular cwm" is but you should be able to flash krakd rom with the team rouge cwm recovery.
The only other recovery I recommend would be Roach's 3.2.0.1 version.
Both version can be found here.

[solved] Can't update.

First of all I feel bad for making a thread because I feel like the answer is out there and I just cant find it.
The unit is a TF101G and WW version B9O.
Basically I used this to return to stock http://theunlockr.com/2011/11/28/how-to-unroot-and-remove-cwm-recovery-on-asus-transformer/
This worked fine but now i can't seem to update to stock ICS the tablet does not find any updates automatically (or going into settings and forcing a search)
and when manually downloading ICS from Asus both 9.2.2.4 and 9.2.2.6, neither work.
I was originally using CWM but with no luck there i tried using stock recovery current firmware version is 8.2.3.13
I cant seem to figure this out.
Do a factory reset then update thatll do it
Hit the thanks button if i helped
You need to be completely stock for the update to go, as in no CWM and sometimes it matters which SKU you are on. You can always NVFlash stock ICS if nothing else works
Nvflash does not work for tf101G
So ive got 3 files on my microsd card now after wipingdata as ROM CHIEF suggested the orifinal file name unchanged(yes its unzipped once) the same file called EP_UPDATE.zip and the same file again called UPDATE.zip still when i boot into stock recovery it shows a progress bar for a few seconds then goes to the android and '!' sign and no combination of vol up/down power on seem to activate any controls (like it does on my phone)
Edit: I'm now trying to root VIA PERI and it does not work i get "cannot open for write access is denied" i also tried using wolfs method manually (Im pretty sure PERI just automates wolf) to flash the ICS blob directly and get the same access denied. I guess the exploit isn't working ?
What fw are you on? You need to be on a ICS firmware, yes PERI automates wolf's exploit.

yeah I was on 8.2 something which i think was the problem. managed to get it to update by renaming the zip to EP101_SDUPDATE.zip. It didnt really help that i had 5 different people telling me to rename it to different things. I'm happy I got it to work in the end.
PERI saved me in the first place when i originally couldn't flash anything (CWM was from rom manager) so thanks for the nifty program.

[A701] Easy Root

Taken from my original thread here
Again, this is for Iconia A701 users only. If you don't know what version ROM you are on, then you need not be here.
Prerequisites; (the stuff you need to have already)
1. Acer or Google USB drivers. No, I am not going to tell you how to do this. If you can't figure it out, then you don't need to be here.
Driver issues, can be addressed in the Q&A forum.
2. USB Debugging turned on (your development settings). If you can't find it in Settings/Development, then again, you do not need to be here.
Disclaimer. This is done at your own choice. I am not responsible if your tab doesn't start, global war, or EMP's dropping on your residence. If you complain, I will probably just laugh at you. If I err in my ways, then I will fix the script.
What the "bat" file does.
It roots your tablet.
Installs the 701 unsecure boot,img which can be used on all region JB devices
Installs SU binaries
Installs Superuser
Installs Busybox
This is a full root with /system remounts
Ooops too late, this already happened!

Thanks Mate
Actually some of the credit goes to Verboth, Pagustin, Pawitp, Civato, EZTerry. These guys do a lot for the Iconia line of tablets.
Should also thank Acer for finally letting us unlock the bootloader
Remember, "Bootloader" is different from "boot.img"

Thanks alot Moscow and to all the other contributors to this release. This solved 2 of my problems on my A701 tab I got following the first post in this thread:
1. Prerequisites said CWM 6.0.1.1 was required which i installed - This version does not work on the A701. Booting into recovery gives alot of error messages about not able to mount among other things the sd card. Installing this release gives me CWM 6.0.1.5 which seems to work correctly (making a backup in CWM 6.0.1.5 to SD card right now).
2. Beeing rooted but not having R/W rights on the system, as you Moscow explained for me earlier in this thread.
Thanx alot again!

No problem! Glad it worked.
The reason why the original CWM 6011 didn't work, is because it was designed for the ICS system using an ICS kernel. If you were on ICS it works fine. I believe the thread you referenced, has you install it while on ICS so you can run that update that was in the original rooted package.
The latest CWM 6015 seems to be ok, although I has seen a couple irregularities in it, but for the most part, it works with JB systems.
The rooting method for JB has been around for awhile, just that some users would rather see it in a script instead of using adb from a command line.
Have fun

Ok, after looking at what Pangustin told you in the other thread, here is how I understand it.
He migrated to 4.1.1 by virtue of the update (or flashing the image file, it really doesn't matter).
Then, he wanted to install the latest "leaked" 701 update. However, he had deleted some files and such, so the leaked update probably wouldn't install. The update files are very sensitive to changes.
So he ran the original JB Update again (the 270mb one). The theory, is this refreshed the missing files, and installed locked bootloader and such. At this point, it appeared he could successfully install the newest "leaked" update file. (the 6mb one).
I would guess, to go back to a stock jelly bean setup, you would only need to install the 270mb patch update file you have posted here.
I don't plan on trying this, at least unless I'm extremely bored. :laugh::laugh::laugh:
MD
You're right MD.
I manually installed JB the first time as my tab didn't get the update the I deleted som system apps I didn't use.
Out of curiosity I did a temp unroot of my tab and checked if an official update was available through OTA. And there the 6mb update was available to me but it would not install because of the missing system apps.
So I went through the process of reflashing the whole thing like I did originally to get JB and I was able to flash the 6mb update.
That was a lot of time just to flash a small upgrade but I was the only one having it so I thought it might be nice to get it for everyone.
I'm not interested in what behind paugustin did... i meant i wanna know how you smart guys did the job done with every steps, adb, flashed and etc how to figure it out with the command code... i just wanna learn little bit about that, even though i will not to do that because paugustin warn me not to do the risk, but an advanced user come from a noob right? :laugh: ... i'm just curious about what have you guys done if you guys do not mind share particularly explains post about every steps detail how to do that like "a guide how to revert back to stock image/recovery" etc...
Actually i'm Just bored everyday checked out a701 tab post, but too little person post/participate, whether the cause of the language problem or this tab is only sold a few units in the world? or too many noobs like me has purchased the a701 :fingers-crossed:
Thanks MD without your easyroot i will never root my devices and pugustin that has made me curiously

Well, to install it, you simply boot using a stock recovery, or boot using CWM (newest version). In CWM, select "Install zip from SD". Then select that 270mb update file.
To quickly get to recovery, you can just adb reboot recovery
Keep in mind, you have to have the correct version of android already installed. In other words, you can't go running that update on a DE rom for example.

Do you have JB 4.1.1 installed now? or do you have ICS 4.0.3?
Because if yo have JB, you do not need to install that 270mb update.

GT-N8000 downgrade and no update.

I've been using Gnabo v_7 version for quite a long time, and a very simple and beautiful day when I woke up my Samsung GT-N8000 was stuck on bootscreen. I wasn't able to do much so I got this "Brazil stock rom" that I found in a website, and it flashed all right, except for the detail that there is something at the screen that I haven't got a bloody clue how to remove. hahaha
And still, whenever I try to install another room, I got stuck at bootlogo and so on. I'm kinda lost here, mind a little help?
I traveled around the forum but well, I'm a little dumb so I couldn't find any proper information about, how to solve this. I would like to know if there is a way to remove this thing from the main screen, and post here the image for you guys to see it please.
I tried to post the image here to make it easier understanding, but since I got this login recently I can't =\
Thanks
Install custom recovery (if you haven't already. If you already have it installed, make sure to update to latest version), root device, wipe everything and flash custom ROM.

So far I've tried the rom = N8000XXUDNE4 [still bootloop], then another 4.1 android version of other German rom XXALGA and nothing. Downloaded 3 Brazilian versions, and nothing. [I am from Brazil]. The only one that worked flashing using Odin was one called "KIES_HOME_N8000UBALGA_N8000ZTOALG3_N8000UBLG5.tar". And still, not recognizing my cellphone chip, and with some big watermark at the middle of the screen showing some information about the ROM and the version is 4.0. Even though this one worked fine, I was able to root and when I tried to flash another room, BANG! Bootloop again! =\
I was looking at the forum topics and I read some about ADB or something like that can fix this and "break" this bootloop making the device work normally again with the roms. But i haven't got a clue how to use it. Please help me! =\

You can use ADB to push/pull files to Android. I don't know if you can use it to fix bootloop. With it, you can also reboot to recovery and sideload zip

Well, after 2 days of research and paying attention on things here, I found out that my problem is "/EFS error". Meaning to use ADB to recover or fix it? But I don't know how to use this. I've downloaded 3GB of it but I was lost about using, and uninstalled. Is is there any short or better version and some good tutorial about using to retrieve my EFS so I can install another roms? I'm using original stock rom now, Brazilian android 4.0 and that's the only only the device is working fine but of course missing things as my cellphone card and the yellow message at the top of the screen. Please guide me through ADB.
P.s Is there a way to create /efs or something like so the device work properly? Cause I've deleted when I installed some rom, and I have no backup here. =\
Thanks!

Here is tutorial about how to install ADB and Fastboot drivers and use them. Unfortunately, I don't know how to use it to restore efs. Sorry.
