For A701 Users on JB ONLY
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!
Choice 1 exits the bat without installing CWM
Choice 2
Installs CWM Recovery in addition to rooting.
If you quit after step 1, you will still have stock recovery.

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"

701easyroot! Yes it's really easy!

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.

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

Good day,
I have a tf101 with stock rom (4.0.3)... I recently purchased a Nexus 9, so I figured it was time to start playing with my tf101. Would someone have a link that shows a step by step *How to* to update from stock 4.0.3 to stable KatKiss 4.4.4. I've never done any of this so I need some guidance, if a Youtube video exist that show what to do from start to end I would appreciate the link, otherwise a detailed how to with all related pages would be great.
Thank you in advance for your help,

I have one more question just to be on the safe side
When I have installed this easyFlasher and put my device (definitely TF101, thanks for pointing out!!!) int APX mode I can root from where? Let's assume I am in this TWRP and want to continue with KATKISS Lollipop, do I need to root first? or ROM (meaning the KATKISS lollipop?) and then SuperSU
is SuperSU from Timduru going to be enough to root in the order shown by him?

After flashing the recovery, boot into it (power+vol.down until a screen shows to choose vol.up for recovery.)
If everything went right, you should be greeted by twrp.
Now go to the KatKiss - Lollipop thread, download the ROM and Gapps. Get the latest supersu.
Read installation instructions carefully.
Short version:
Put all three .zip on sdcard. Boot twrp.
Wipe dalvik, cache and system . FORMAT data (important if upgrading to lollipop. A wipe won't do).
install katkiss then gapps and last install supersu. Now reboot.
The supersu.zip is always the last to flash, because it installs the su binary and the helper-app into the presently installed ROM.

This is indeed correct in most cases, but Tim explicitly states that supersu should be flashed before Gapps on Katkiss Lollipop:

EasyFlasher will both let you put your device into APX mode and flash recovery/acquire root, but you don't really need root for flashing recovery or ROMs.

Yeah, I trust timduru, he is an excellent developer. Although I think he is trying to make a point here, so he can give reliable support. In the KitKat thread there where a lot of stupid "doesn't work" posts, just because people forgot to install gapps. From a technical point of view it doesn't matter which comes first, as long as it is done. Quiet frankly, if the gapps would change something that superu did, that would be really strange.

I started with easy flasher but it only flashes TWRP2.2 something, so a very early version ;( and TIMDURU advises to use much higher version like 2.8 something for his Lollipop
How do I put this one on my Asus?
Thank you in advance!!!
I decided to give it a try, put the 2.8 sth version in the internal memory, went to TWRP, pressed install, found this 2.8 sth and slid for flashing... now I am going to check the version... if it worked (fingers crossed) I shall continue with the rest
the task went smoothly, I started working on KatKiss,

Congratulations on your "new" tablet
and someting went sooo wrong and I have no idea what to do now
Yesterday my device was all fine and fully fincional, I watched sth on it, played some radio online and then wanted to checksomething on the internet
My device froze, the screen was unresponsive, the back key on the keyboard as well
I pressed and held power and it returned
I decided to check this net thing again but this time it didn't return, it showed something like "... unable to encrypt" or encryption unable to"... and I could only press one thing, OK, so I did
the device froze on ee pad screen
I tried power volume down, blue screen from twrp appeared and it got stuck
I have no idea what to do now???
if anyone can help me, please PLEASE write step by step including things like connect youf TF101 to our PC, because i am the layman of all laymen in the world...
thank you in advance for any help
as for now the device is charging because I remember that there was very low energy level in tablet and above 90 % in keyboard.
After analysing few posts I came to conclusion that my device is bricked. How that happened I have no idea but I decided to un-brick it with easy-flasher and it worked so I repeated steps from previous posts but with version 17 and now I can see KatKiss sweet doggie
and
Android is updating
let's connect with WIFI and life should be good again

Only thing I can think of is install CWM another way, that is, a stock ROM with CWM built in (via Odin),
If your phone is AT&T (Option D preferably, but I hear downloads are hard to find as of late - unfortuanately I don't have a mirror for this one):

UPDATE:
What ROM are you going to? Did you disable Voodoo Lagfix? Are you going straight to Kitkat?
Try installing CM9 first if the last two answers are No and Yes, respectively.

Kitkat (even Jellybean) is often too much of a jump for a CWM of that vintage (unless you are lucky in disabling voodoo lagfix). Try flashing CM9 (this will upgrade your CWM as well). If you still get an error, you will need to OTA to Gingerbread first. This can be achieved by Odining one of the stock ROM's, first link in my previous post.

You can always ask around on the thread - sorry, I don't have any leads (I only downloaded the important stuff for the Rogers version, which will be no good to you).
Good luck though!
UPDATE: I just PM'ed everyone who I've recommended those packages in the past. Hopefully I get a bite.
I have an unlocked xperia z3 d6603 I bought brand new in january I believe. I just today rooted and installed recovery but am stuck on the 23.0A.2.93 tft rom which it shippped with. It would have normally been running unrooted the latest rom from sony which was just pushed out a couple months ago. I'm in california and need a rooted d6603 generic global rom, or even unrooted, and I can't seem to find the down link here. In xpreifirm 3.6a latest, I keep getting a java error so can't use that and I've already uninstalled and installed the latest 64bit java8 update 40. I was going to just flash it with the moonwalker rom but it days I need to be on a different tft altogether. Any help here would be appreciated. I have installed a firewall, changed dns servers, and uninstalled a few things using rom toolbox. Hoping to just update it to the recent tft or even better, a working custom rom which won't mess up the default phone capabilities. I'm on kitkat 4.4.4, at&t lte, rom 23.0.A.2.93
Again I need a rooted global generic 577 tft for a z3, a nonrooted one, or even better, a custom one I can just flash to it so I can get back to my life.
since you have a working recovery just flash this one 23-0-1-5-77-deodexed-zipaligned it's the latest KK
ps: I'm on AT&T in CA as well and running that firmware just fine for a while now, it's generic global so no worries...
awesome. THANKS. Gonna try it now. Been at it all day from like 10am to about 5 when I had to break

I rebooted with TWRP in recovery mode, reset device (Wipe Data, Cache and Dalvik Cache), saw no way of flashing from recovery mode. Shut phone off. Plugged in in flash mode with the zip file in the firmwares folder and it was not recognized by flash tool. Where are the directions for flashing a zip?
Choose the second option in recovery
Install custom zip
I used NDR to reboot into recovery. The zip was on both internal and external at root. First time I selected the one from internal and it gave no errors. Wiped cache and rebooted and still on stock 93. Did the exact same thing again choosing zip on sd card and it still says 93. Third time I did it from sd card but no cache wipe. Still on23.0.A.2.93. WTF???
Where can I find a working ftf. NDR doesn't work for ****. BTW, phone is setup in dev mode with mock, airplane mode etc with supersu free working. I think
BTW, why in the hell does the thread with all the roms not have any current ones???? rooted or not
What for are you trying to flash? Please provide a link.
What does the recovery log say? It really helps if you tell us this.
FTF files are geberally not uploaded anymore as it is very easy to download any you want from the sony servers and create your own FTF using flashtool and Xperia firm.
Ps, it may be nice to watch your language. The issue is not NDR, it works fine.
I'm using D6603_23.0.1.A.5.77_deodex.zip from here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/z3/development/deodex-23-0-1-5-77-deodexed-zipaligned-t3015178 on top of D6603_23.0.A.2.93_Generic_20GLOBAL.ftf which was rooted and dual recovered. I have flashed the above 5.77 zip file like 5 times from recovery mode and still on 93. This last time I noticed I had no file mgr. Installed es, mounted system rw like it says to do after root, reflashed the 77 deodexed zip, wiped dalvik and cache, reupdated supersu zip in recovery, rebooted, and stil on93. What am I doing wrong? Is there not a dern ftf file I can use instead? OR, should and could I just wait for another official update?

That is not a ROM file, it does not contain a ROM. It just deodex's your system files if you are on that firmware.
And, No, there is not a FTF you can flash that is rooted. FTF files have to be completely stock as we cannot sign them with Sony's keys as we do not know them. The only way to flash something rooted is via recovery
Post#2 told me I could flash the zip over and it would work. No wonder it doesn't work because it doesn't do anything. I don't want to unlock boot because I may fail official updates. I really just want to update to a working global generic 77 rooted dual recovered system. So basically even if I had the official 77, unrooted, I still couldn't use (nor root) it right? Thanks for the help. I at least know to go another route.

Post #2 is wrong. Also the thread stated in the first line that a requirement for that to work is that you are already on .77 firmware.
There is no need to unlock your boot.
Just flash a .77 prerooted ROM.
If you cannot find one then make one yourself. Follow the guide in the thread called PRFCreator (Just google it)
Once you have the files downloaded it takes 7 minutes and it is all automated for you
Thank You Very Much. At present I have access to two pc's. One is my roomies (win8.1) and mine (win7). My roomies has some sort of java issue and xperifirm fails right when you click the file you want. Tried fixing java didn't work. Mine is wireless, dns disabled, mac changed, hosts file, and tiny wall fw. Experifrm says no net access even though it works fine. Tried a cable and for the life of me got the same error (couldn't quite reconfigure it to work correctly-pita). If I ever get the file I will do the prfcreator magic, and I'm assuming, flash it through ndr tools in recovery mode. In the mean, I might request an xda user in another thread to grab one for me and post it. Should help lots of people not just me. Again, thank you for your help, saved a lot of hair pulling.

Sorry about the confusion, indeed the first link that I provided was just a patch to deodex your room (I always use deodex so I can mod my rom)....anyway you can use this one it's a generic prerooted .77 from the z3 android development section in this forum, then you can patch it with the other one if you have the need to...just follow the instructions in this link and you should be on your way
Again sorry about that first post, I rooted my phone the minute root was available on locked bootloader so it's been some time now
I have been to that link. The only one I can see that says generic global is the 23.0.A.2.93 one. The others say, Generic_DE, Generic_NCB, or Generic_AU. Which looks to me like Deutch, Generic Nordic?, and Australian? Since I speak english and am nowhere near any of those places, I did not touch them. Which one is safe to use and will there be any post config for my locale and radios?? Plus I have no clue what the purpose is of de-odexing the file system (flashing that zip) does. I still have read write issues with apk's I install when I tell them to use my 128gb sd card. I did recover my setup prior to the zip flash you pointed me to which I still have-thank you.

1) its called a FTF file not a TFT file. It's a FlashTool File.
2) your sd write card issues are a feature of KK, and nothing to do with any error or bug to do with your phone. Just Google KK write to sd card to read more about it and how to circumnavigate this issue that was deliberately introduced by Google.
3) i have read some of the advice you have banded about in several of the thread here. Some of it is just plain wrong. Although not dangerous to anyones device it may be worth reading and learning a bit more first.
4) please stick to asking questions in just one thread, there is no need to ask in several thread because the first time you did not get an immediate answer
5) you can safely flash a FTF from any region as long as it is for the same model you have. Especially as you are only going to be on that version for a few minutes whilst you root them immediately upgrade.
Ok, great. I'll grab the de one. As for not trying to help; I put down what worked for me. If I don't know everything I can still give input with the little I know. That's how people learn, myself incl. I just got my pc running not two weeks ago so a little overwhelmed with having just rooted as well. Thanks very much for all your help.

No worries. I did not mean to imply that you should not help, only that you should be sure that what you are saying is in fact correct information.
We do all have to learn, but its hard to learn when incorrect information is posted and stated as "fact"

From install to booted took 4 min. Just had to update supersu and remove a few things. This is awesome! NDR Utils is worth paying for. Now I can finally encrypt my phone. TYSM
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!
