First off thanks very much for finally giving us a510 owners our own Forum! Was such a PITA trying to sort through the a500, a100 and a700 threads constantly looking for just simple answers.
Im looking forward to testing out some custom roms for this beast. (Preferably AOKP lol)
If there is anything anyone needs me to test I will try my best to do what I can.
I finally managed to get my tablet rooted/unlocked my bootloader and have a custom CWM recovery installed and for the most part operational. I am not allowed to say where I got the resources to do those as its against forum rules.
Anyways looking forward to seeing a active forum!
Dude, the resources for doing THAT are in the A700 part of this section, and the A500 part, too.

Hello Everyone,
This is my first post but I have a couple of questions maybe someone can help me with. I purchased a B90 Transformer yesterday and just rooted with Razorclaw. (AWESOME APP BTW DONATION INCOMING) I have not installed any custom roms just some apps. After I have rooted is there a way I can get this tablet completely back to stock? Sorry if it is a simple questions but this is my first root EVER.
Thanks again for all the help and I appreciate you all helping with these medial questions.

Well, the first thing I would say is to read the forum rules.....You really should be trying to search the forums instead of posting a thread asking for the answer.....
Now that I'm done being a **** about that....if you go to page 2 in the Android Development section you can find this nice, nifty little post...
Easy Unroot
I guess my first real question is, since your thread title says you want to go back to factory to play order and chaos, why? You don't need to be factory to play it. I can play it just fine on my rooted/ROM'ed transformer without doing anything special. The normal APK (1.0.4 I believe) works just fine without modification.....
Hello,
I managed to root my Asus Transformer today have been reading the forums for several hours. Im looking to install a custom rom on it(Android Revolution) but i keep running into the problem of installing CWM on my transformer. I will apoligize in advance id there is a thread addressing my issue that i might have accidentally passed over. i am by no means a noob just a noob to HC tabs. i do always appretiate any help that all these awesome devs do for the community, so i would be thankful for any assistance provided. thanks all!

Sir,
As usual i simply over-complicated the situation, i hope this small thread will help other similar users that have downgraded to obtain root with thier CWM needs, you have likely saved me many more hours of aimless research.
Thank You.

Howdy, welcome to the Atrix 2 community! So, you managed to find the rooting method - great! Now, there are within this same forum the answers to the rest of your questions. A short answer (without doing the 'dirty work' of searching these things out for you) is that yes, there is custom recovery for this device. In fact, there are more than one. You'll have to do your own research as to which you choose and which works with the different ROMs available. As for a "best" ROM or recovery, that is all subjective. Some ROMs do not play well with other recoveries, and some ROMs have features that others do not. That said, you'll have to dig around in the development section to see which one suits your desires. There's a ton of useful threads and guides here, but you have to be the one to read up on them. No one can (or should be expected) to give their own personal opinion on what's 'best'. You'll just have to determine that for yourself...

Thanks! I also installed the bootstrap recovery. I amon stock rom currently. So far so good.
BUT I have a stuck (or dead??) Pixel at bottom of my screen near dialer icon. Only one and visible on black only. I am thinking of using my warranty. But worried what if they give me a refurbished and scratched up phone in return of this spot less one...
Here's the dead/stuck pixel(attached, bottom left under gmail icon, above menu icon..
EDIT:
I just called service centre, they said we will replace screen, and when I asked will you be careful not to scratch the phone??
He said, when we open phone scratches are bound to occur!! how rude!!
Hi Guys
I have been following these xda forums for a while now but never registered until now. Please forgive me if this is the wrong section to post this under, any moderators feel free to move if need to, I am fairly new to android, I have an android tablet Asus TF101 and used a guide on here to root. a while back.
After a long wait I have finally gotten a new phone after having an old nokia 5800, well still waiting for it to be delivered, the new Padfone Infinity a86 I have searched and searched for methods to root the device, but can not seem to find any, at least any that seem legitimate does any one know if there is a root method available for it?
Second after looking into and rooting my tablet I would quite like to get into custom roms, but not quite confident in that area yet as I do not have the know how to fix it incase I brick it, Is there any youtube videos/channels anyone can reccomend I can watch. and rom manager is that worth looking at as I did hear some decent things about that.
Thanks in advance for any help you can give.
Kind Regards
Majon.

Greetings xda forum goers:
As the title suggest I have an Acer Iconia A500 that I purchased a few months back second hand. Well folks I really need your help and I'm at my wits end about this. To cut right to the chase my tab is running Android 3.1 Build Number Acer_A500_4.010.13_COM_GEN2 and I'd like to update it to something more recent 4.4 or 5 even would be great but I'd gladly settle for 4.0 even as well. I can't update through the tablet as some of you may be aware Acer no longer provides support for this otherwise awesome tablet and attempting to update yields the "Network Coverage is Poor" error. Is there a something I can download and run as a standalone update? Or do I have to root it? I'm a technician but am very much new to roots and not that familiar with tablets in general. Clear instructions and any help will be very much appreciated. Thank you so much!
