Yes, but they will remove your custom recovery and might even lock your bootloader (there are bootloader.blob files, but I don't know what they do).

only 6 are showing now?? im grabbing them all, hoping my region is still one of them!

Hmm that's odd I have a au over and I cannot ota to the newer version listed??

Yes. This is also important for other users reading this thread: These ROMs are probably beta's, so if you flash this on your tablet you won't get new OTA's. I'm not 100% certain about this, but just in case: Make a backup!!!

OK so its not like Samsung where I can install the firmware and go back.
Btw when I do power and volume I get android guy with red error why is this. I have not rooted nor tried to install kernel/rom before
I was under the hope an official firmware wouldn't void warranty but it looks like it won't do updates without cwm which I'm not comfortable installing at this time

That's because the Acer recovery does not have a menu or other interface. If you boot into stock recovery, you'll get the 'error android'. If you boot to recovery with a file called 'update.zip' on your SD-card, the stock recovery will flash this update.zip without error.
However, you can only flash official update.zip files with this, no custom ROMs.

Oh OK thanks.
Yeah I tried installing that one from SD card it failed at 50%

regarding the update script,
to get these roms to work, the region check needs to be bypassed (after installing a custom rom), can i just comment out the line in question?
assert(getprop("ro.product.name") == "a510_pa_ca");
and to keep cwm recovery, can i just comment out the recovery package extraction?
package_extract_dir("recovery", "/system");
do i need to comment out the bootloader.blob file? some of what i read seems to indicate if i dont comment it out, the bootloader will be locked after flashing.
then rezip, make sure cwm is set to take an unsigned zip, and flash?

for those trying to select the right rom and dont want to download all 8, the correspond regions are as follows (the RV28RCXX begin an excerpt from the file name on the acer site):
Acer_AV041_A510_1.072.00_EMEA_CUS1 --> RV28RC02
Acer_AV041_A510_1.073.00_WW_GEN1 --> RV28RC01
Acer_AV041_A510_1.074.00_EMEA_GB --> RV28RC03
Acer_AV041_A510_1.076.00_EMEA_DE --> RV28RC04
Acer_AV041_A510_1.076.00_PA_CUS1 --> RV28RC04
Acer_AV041_A510_1.079.00_PA_CA --> RV28RC06
Acer_AV041_A510_1.084.00_AAP_AU --> RV28RC08
Acer_AV041_A510_1.090.00_TWN_GEN1 --> RV28RC10
they all have region checks, so if you have installed a custom rom, the acer roms will fail to flash without some additional tweaking. And two regions (RC04) do have the exact same file name, no idea why acer did that.

And for A511 ?

OK so I retried flashing after saving data and it worked this time last time I tried it kept failing at 50%.
No noticeable difference and the stock browser still crashes on me.
Oh well just have to wait for jelly bean update maybe for some noticeable fixes.
Acer_AV041_A510_1.084.00_AAP_AU --> RV28RC08
For any Aussies reading here I have tested a full deplete and had no major issues except the ones I was already getting I.e stock browser crash and occasionally can't wake up the device.
Though this hasn't happened yet I'm assuming it still is there.

Heartbleed vulnerability in Android 4.1.1

Google has officially stated that Android 4.1.1 is vulnerable:

This is a notice for anyone else on the Stock ROM as I am pretty sure this was the last supported update from HTC.

Maybe you can try my patch: https://www.dropbox.com/s/tqxfjwwja3uaqsn/install-patch.zip
It uses a libssl.so from a LG Optimus L5 II (4.1.2) and it works on my TrekStor Surftab Ventos 10.1
If your device does't boot after you've installed it:
The patch creates a backup of your libssl.so at /system/libssl.backup.so, so just replace /system/lib/libssl.so with that backup file

I'm not sure how to fix it, but this is why you're not supposed to install OTAs if you're not on stock recovery.

I'm s off, have twrp installed and on stock ROM. Would like to install this update, or get a 4.2.2 or 4.3 stable fully functional ROM. Do you think flashing stock recovery and then ota would work even if I'm s off. Should still be able to boot an ruu from fastboot even if I boot loop. Suggestions on custom roms?
Edit: Used flashalot's recovery switcher to flash stock recovery, rebooted, then flashed the ota update. After update I lost root, but still have s off.
Plan on fastboot flashing another recovery, then flashing su binary again from the new recovery.
Hope this helps.

This might help...
If you have the OTA.zip file... but custom recovery and such like TMUS application removed..
This will wipe your phone. Making a backup is not optional !!!
http://sadevil.org/blog/2012/12/23/manually-flashing-an-ota-update/
This looks somewhat straight forward.. If you want to get the OTA downloaded:
got to settings .. and manage to get the software update.. It will download eventually into your Download folder ..
Do not Apply the OTA at this point.. select install later!!!
pull the file on your PC/Mac/Linux box and modify as described in the URL above..
reboot your phone and the OTA should not bother you ... if you have pulled (like in remove) or at least renamed the OTA file..
Before you push Firmware.. and such make sure you have made a backup with CWM !!! or whatever method you are using!!!
also make sure you have your custom recovery image somewhere available and maybe a su.zip cwm file as you may loose root as well.. not sure..
If you have rooted your HTC one S your self - this should not be hard to DIY..
Currently I am at work and cannot try it out myself .. but definitly will do it once back at home later..
Godspeed to all of you brave hackers..

Same situation here. Stock ROM and Rooted and S-off. Constant nag to apply the OTA update but not working. Looking for a way to do it easy. How should I proceed? Don't want to wipe the phone and create all my settings again if possible. Can I reverse S-Off and apply OTA update somehow?
can any one provide me a link to the ota update

[DEVS][OTA] Original M7UL 4.4.3 OTA update zip

The original update OTA can be obtained here: WWE_4.07.1700.4-3.62.1700.1_KTU84L.H4_release_377648
This cannot be flashed unless your device meets all requirements. Wait for a ROM otherwise.

What if you manually edit updater-script to not patch Youtube?
I could do that, but then I'll have the same issue on next OTA! I'd rather have a 100% clean update, if you know what I mean!

Mine fails as well - on basicDreams.apk. It doesn't look like it can be applied to every device, e.g. when integrating apps into the ROM using Titanium Backup it will most likely fail. Will be taken care of by the ROM devs though.

HAAANG ON!! hang on......
this....is a 4.xx.xxxx.x update
previous was 3.62.xxxx.x

I expect a good improvement, even in performance (that on sense roms is always 2 times better, dunno why)

Stick to your sense ROM then because performance hasn't changed much between 4.4.2 and 4.4.3

All I had to do was RUU to 4.4.0 because that's the one I had handy, let the phone OTA to 4.4.2, and when it booted all I had to do was hit the "check for update" button 2-3 times and then it prompted me to download the OTA and voila, 4.4.3

You would have to put the OTA at the right location and name it exactly what the recovery expects and I don't know how to do that.
Thing is with stock recovery, there are no options, it either updates or resets to factory default.

Just wait a day or two.
I haven't really noticed a performance increase or decrease tbh after flashing the new firmware. It says "5.11.401.10" because I edited the android-info.txt file. But the date is 5/16/2014, to confirm that it is the newer v1.54 hboot. How would I go about making a deodex system dump into a flashable rom.zip? I have the system dump if someone can help me with the procedure.

Status 7 error means that the device listing in the updater script isn't the same.
You have 2 options:
1. The device may not be for the chinese version, as they are most likely listed different in the updater script > flash a different rom
2. On a pc, open the zip, open the updater script and change it to the appropriate tag or add the correct, the 'US Version' is listed as A0001, so you need to add that to the device listing.
Add what to the script?
gavin-phelan said:
Add what to the script?
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
At the top of the updater script you'll see a line similar to:
getprop("ro.product.device") == "bacon"
In your current rom, use a root file explorer and go to /system and open the builprop file in a text editor. Look for something like ro.cm.device=____ . Whatever it says there, whether it be sausage [sticking with food], remove bacon from the reference string above and place in 'pancake.'
It could be using the product name or device field. So see what the updater script is using, then using my above method, swap out the appropriate value from your device.
You'll have to do that for every rom you try to flash that isn't for that device. Do proceed with cause in case something does happen to go wrong.
Sorry guys, so every opo bought from china has this problem with twrp?!?! I hope no!! The first thing ehen i received the device, was to re flash the full system image to get all like international vrs

[OTA] Official Marshmallow build MCG24.251-5

WARNING: THIS HAS BRICKED PHONES! It is suspected that having an encrypted phone causes these bricks, but that has not been confirmed. If your data partition is encrypted, it is extra important that you perform a factory reset before taking this OTA. Doing this will remove the encryption.
WARNING: INSTALLING THIS ON A LOCKED BOOTLOADER WILL ELIMINATE ALL CHANCE OF YOU EVER UNLOCKING YOUR BOOTLOADER.
If your bootloader is unlocked, it will not be re-locked after this update.
Do NOT flash this using TWRP. If you want to do that, use this version: http://forum.xda-developers.com/droid-turbo/development/rom-mcg24-251-5-100-stock-t3512949
So if you're a bad enough dude to flash this anyway, follow these instructions:
1. Backup all data on your phone. It will be lost.
2. If your bootloader is locked, make sure you are on SU4TL-49. If you aren't, take all available OTAs until you are.
3. If your bootloader is unlocked and you have TWRP installed, flash SU4TL-49 using this package: https://mega.nz/#!3xRhiaSR!KxH2Ya_BYK4zBjrxmej7dqaaDJVT1coTFJVJ5Fvb2WM
4. If you have TWRP installed on your phone, download the stock SU4TL-49 recovery here: https://mega.nz/#!L1AkQD4T!qoZIlLa-wuUBLMEi_gE574meiHd6Pehb34a-x3Gb-V8 and install it using the install image option in the install menu in TWRP. Reboot to recovery.
3. Perform a factory reset using the stock recovery menu. This will wipe all data and ensure that everything is formatted exactly as it should be.
4. Boot the phone normally and place the marshmallow update on the root of the directory that pops up when you plug in your phone.
5. Boot to recovery and at the stock recovery menu, select "apply update from sdcard."
6. Select the update and cross your fingers.

Are you sure that that file is the right one? It has the same version number as su4tl-49.

I'm positive. I seem to remember they did the same thing with SU4TL-49. The OTA was named after SU4TL-44 for some reason.
This is the stock recovery version, correct?

Correct. You install this using the sideload option in the stock recovery.

Thanks for the info and the download! You finally brought the wall down. I'm waiting for the twrp version myself
.
Thank you, now we can see what can be done with the new modem, kernel, etc...
Looking forward to a plethora of improvements to our phones

I'm testing the TWRP version now. It should be up shortly.
EDIT: I flashed it and it seems to work fine. Uploading now. Should be up in a few hours. I'll check on it after I go run some errands real quick.
Despite having software status report official, not modified, I too got a status 7 error. Downloading again.

This used to always be Motorola's naming scheme. New updates were named after the firmware version they replaced.
Sweet. I am going to wait till it is more stable. I do have a bad esn Turbo but I will need to unlock to bootloader to test.
Mirror for people having "quota exceeded" error at Mega
https://yadi.sk/d/AhmhE-yX32E84p
Rename to Blur_Version.24.81.5.quark_verizon.verizon.en.US.zip before use, throw in internal storage, and check for updates.
PS: I have 64Gb Employee Edition, and still had not receive update by air. What a shame, VZ! )

Error 7? Are you trying to flash this in TWRP? Because you can't do that with this package. You need the stock recovery. I'm uploading a TWRP-friendly version now, but the internet is being slow today.

Negative. Stock recovery on a system that reports "Official". I'm at a loss.

Strange. Try reflashing SU4TL-49. If my TWRP package doesn't do it for you, use the full firmware package and do it manually with fastboot.
Installed successfully on two devices.
...
kitcostantino, did you refresh system, kernel, modem and recovery by SU4TL-49? Are you sure you didn't mess with Turbo Maxx ROMs in the past? Foreign bootloader can cause even brick, not just error. See bootloader status at fastboot mode should be " locked, status 0"

lol. lawd, No. Ive been rocking status 3 for over a year.
As a tip, if anyone else with an unlocked bootloader runs into this,
what i had to do was restore my su-44 unmodified backup, OTA to SU-49, and then, after confirming my
q/e status was 0/1 i was able to update via the file in my Mega download folder. all is well now. they even added the newer version of command center. sweet. thank you all!!
It works in LOCKED BOOTLOADER??? .-.

Um, I couldn't tell you.i be been unlocked since the day Sunshine could unlocked our bootloader's. What I can tell you is you should absolutely unlock that via Sunshine before you even dream of applying this update. There will never be another opportunity.
Just my
.02. This is likely the last update for this phone, and your only chance of seeing N is via custom Roms.
TWRP version up now: http://forum.xda-developers.com/droid-turbo/development/rom-mcg24-251-5-100-stock-t3512949

Yes it should. See instructions in OP.

New Update - QF2

According to the Verizon Galaxy S5 Update Page:
Android® security patches and bug fixes.
Resolved a ring-back tone issue on calls to non-Verizon phones.
Fixed an issue where some users reported difficulty making calls to non-Verizon customers.

The security patch included is (most likely) the July one, since Samsung also just released a new software update to international models which includes the July security patch and Verizon has been updating the "Galaxy S" series phones with the July update over the past few weeks.
Stock No-Wipe Firmware:
*This will remove Developer Status/Lock your Bootloader*

Updato is one way; this shows the list for the Verizon S5 with the most recent at the top; they haven't gotten the new update up yet though.
I think that another way would be for someone to dig through the update.zip file which would be on the phone of someone who got the OTA update downloaded but had not yet installed it yet.
To confirm, the only thing that's different between the dev-friendly version (when it comes out) and the stock is the missing aboot? Thanks again.

Is this flashable with Odin only or possibly need to already be on a specific kernal? I have tried on two S5900V's through TWRP and both result in a failure message. Both are on jkruse de-bloated MM rom at the moment.

Odd. It works for me.

Since no one wanted to chime in and help me out in my post, you need to unzip the file and load the md5 into Odin's AP slot and flash it. Then let the phone do its thing and flash the latest TWRP with odin after. Then go back into TWRP and flash supersu to gain root again. Trying to flash right within TWRP is not an option, not sure why its not explained.
So this update wont "factory reset" my device?

I always flash super su and whatever else I need in recovery after I've flashed the rom so I cant give you a definitive answer. Both phones did upgrade without data loss and now advanced calling/wifi calling actually work now which is why I flashed in the first place.
Working?
Is this working? Ive tried everything and i have the Toshiba chip. Emmc 11. It soft bricks if i try to downgraded to stock builds.

If you flash the dev boot loader friendly version it wont screw with your bootloader whatsoever. Before you restart go back in TWRP and flash supersu to get root again. Saying it "unlocked boot loader" may cause confusion to people because it does not, you need to manually go from locked to DEV status via a few of the methods posted in here.
