Hit the thanks button if you enjoy my work & give me feedback in replay…….
Sorry for my bad English……
Dear
thank you for the great rom,
1- Can i add more languages to the input keyboard ( only English available), like Arabic language ?
2- Each time i use Google Play: it closes without warning,, any ideas??
Thanks for this very nice and fast rom.
I really like white lollipop notifications, thank you very very much for that
But i don't like that SMALI MOD ( more precisely that tabs (Notification, Quick Acces, Setting) but it's a nice idea - maybe with some customization we can get something like lollipop notification panel.
Here is my sugesstion what would be awesome to do with notification panel if it is possible:
It's something like CM12 Galaxy S6 Lollipop Theme :
Please take my opinion and please take look at this : http://forum.xda-developers.com/android/development/how-to-make-ur-device-looks-android-l-t3090248 - maybe you can try bring lollipop quick settings and notification panel to our device.
Thanks again and keep up good work.
internet, dialer, gallery . everytime i am opening those app. theres always popping up "unfortunately stopped" what should i do? i want this rom badly.
Hey can i install it on a custom rom cm11?

-----------------------------------------------------------------
Special thanks and credits to:
@Shreps for providing the acer firmware/recovery files and his dedicated Acer Thread.
MaximumROM for providing the ported Custom ROMs.
@AndroidXDA for the latest SP Flash Tool.
Getting Started
USE AT OWN RISK! I'M NOT RESPONSIBLE FOR ANY DAMAGES OR BRICKS THAT MIGHT OCCUR UPON FLASHING. YOU'VE BEEN WARNED!!!.
Before doing any flashing with your Acer Liquid Z500 you'll need to Root your device and flash a custom recovery. This is mandatory for flashing Custom Roms and making Backups.
Rooting may void your warranty, though this is localized and may not apply for your area/country. Here, in The Netherlands, rooting your android phone has been approved legal by the government, thus keeping your warranty if you need to return your device to the manufacturer.
This does NOT apply for flashing Custom Recovery's, therefore you need to flash back to the stock recovery.
Rooting:
First we want to Root our phone. We need KingoRoot for that. You can find it in my attachment in the post above. I haven't used the Android version, so i´ll only guide you through the windows version of KingoRoot.
People without a PC can try the provided KingoRoot_Android.zip, but i cannot guarantee it will work as i haven't tested it myself.
01) Go to your device settings and select 'Device Info'. Scroll down and tap the 'Build Number' 5x until you've unlocked 'Developer Options' displayed in a toast.
02) Go to 'Settings/Developer Options' and check 'USB Debugging Enabled' you are now ready to receive additional usb drivers and adb has full access to change files.
03) Connect your phone to your computer with a USB cable and wait until it's finished installing drivers.
03) Download and install KingoRoot for windows .
04) Run KingoRoot, the program itself is pretty self explanatory. Just click 'ROOT' and wait until the program has finished flashing. It will reboot your device automaticly on success and superuser app called 'KingUser' will be installed with it. If you don't like it you can try SuperUser or SuperSU from the playstore. (Make sure you've granted them SU_Access with KingUser before you remove KingUser)
05) You are now ready to flash a Custom Recovery.
Custom Recovery:
Now we need a Custom Recovery. We can use SP FlashTool to do that or we can use MobileUncle MTK Tools. I'm going with the latter because it's more user friendly instead of going through SPFT & Scatter Files. I haven't tried 'Flashify' or 'Rashr Flash Tool' for flashing Recovery's on MTK devices.
01) Download CTR or CWM Custom Recovery's from the above post. Make sure they are located at the root of your SDCard. Move/Paste them from /Download folder if necessary.
02) Download MobileUncle from my attachment or download it from the Google PlayStore.
03) Grand SU_Access to MobileUncle and select 'Flash Firmware'.
04) Your downloaded Custom Recovery's will be shown (if moved propertly to root of SD) select it and click 'Flash'.
05) Reboot into your new Custom Recovery automaticly --when prompted to do so--, or do it manually by turning phone off/on with 'Vol+ (Up) & Power' and select 'Recovery' in acer menu (apply/select with Vol- (Down))
06) Now make a nand/stock backup of your current (Stock) ROM.
07) When leaving Custom Recovery for the 1st time, it might ask you 'Rebooting device might change Recovery to Stock, want to fix it?' reply with Yes.
Flashing Custom ROMs:
Flashing a custom rom is easy. And if you perform everything right, you won't have to worry that you'll brick your device. I've tested most of the ROMs by myself, i can assure you that it's a save deal, just follow the instructions carefully.
01) Download a Custom ROM of your preference (See Post #3) Click the HIDE button to see additional Info and Instructions (which are taken directly from their FB page).
02) Reboot into Recovery and make a backup of your current rom.
03) Do a full cache/data/system wipe and wipe dalvik.
04) Select 'Install zip from sdcard' and select your downloaded rom.
05) Wait until it's finished flashing.
06) Reboot your device and enjoy!
Unbrick / Flashing Stock Firmware:
I haven't had the pleasure yet to unbrick any MTK device (a good thing, right!?), so i'm a little scarse to give any info onto how to perform such tasks with SPFT as someone who has experienced it by hand.
Neither have i re-flashed to Stock Firmware, because on all the MTK devices i've used, any Custom ROM for those devices worked flawlessly.
Check out the Acer thread by @Shreps for detailed instructions on how to restore and unbrick your acer phone. This method works for various Acer models.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/android/development/guide-firmwares-roms-cwm-root-acer-mtk-t2945933
The following ROMs are all based on Android 4.4.2 KitKat and some are heavily customized to look like Lollipop
The following Custom ROMs have been tested with the 'SINGLE SIM' variant of the Acer Liquid Z500. I don't think it'll work with the 'Dual Sim' versions of this handset.

Yeah it's too bad there are no dedicated forums for Acer specific models. Even less popular devices have their own section.
There is not much Info on the Liquid Z500 regarding Custom Roms so i added all the roms i could find (from one source only though ) since XDA, HTCMania, MoDaCo, NeedRom, or any other site, do not feature them (google searches lack information).
So i took what i could find and cramped them into one Thread
Hello mate, thank you for this thread it looks awesome! I wanted to ask you where did you get SDs_Acer_AV0K0_Z500_1.003.00_EMEA_MTSs.zip firmware? My device came with it and when i was searching for it i couldn't find it! I was thinking maybe it's carrier branded firmware because MTS is the abbreviation of my carriers name... If i was mistaken do you by any chance know what does MTS part of it mean? Thanks in advance!

I did not find those files myself, but I took them from @Shreps main thread. But my hunch is that they are provided by acers official website.
About MTS, I don't know..

LOL... bug-less... Less bugs you mean? Bug-less in the world of automation and mobile devices does not exist...
You know what I meant. I'm not stupid and I understand that. I'm not asking for the perfect OS, I'm just asking if they are good for a daily use.

Have you followed my steps? because if you did you wouldn't need to mess with scatter files and the flashing is pretty easy compared to some other brands.
I have no discrete awnser, so if anybody else could shine some light on this issue, thanks!!

Is there a Way to download the ROMs except MEGA? It always fails. Everything can be downloaded properly, just the ROM-Download interrupts always.
EDIT: And I will not buy anything there or pay for something...

Thank you very much, I think it'll be the Samsung-Thing and hopefully it works with the Z500 Plus too. Acer even won't provide a Lollipop-ROM...
Anyway, I'm not using the 2nd SIM.
EDIT:The VionicL-Link seems to be broken.

hi, I was wondering if Xposed Framework can be used in Acer Z500? I really want to modify the notification bar, but the Cutom Rom in the first page says that it's probably impossible for Dual SIM version, so I want to modify it with Xposed.

Hello there!
Today I'm presenting you the latest update of my ROM, Xperia Z5 STYLE 4.6.
This rom has a unique feature, and it's that it's made for both locked and unlocked bootloaders, having some advantages and disadvantages linked to it...
Based on the latest Xperia Z1 Compact deodexed base by @Gaurav007, with SuperUserMod and ZipAlign.
Implemented with a bunch of updated Sony Xperia Z5 apps, such as Camera, Weather, Contacts, Dialer, some themes, etc.
No bloatware: All unuseful Sony apps were removed. The system has been optimized at it's max.
Tweaked: Some tweaks have been implemented to improve your Lollipop experience, such as TRIM for NAND, ART Tweaks, and zRAM Tweaks.
You can install Xposed on top of it if you want to. Just Google Xposed For Lollipop and follow the steps.
Custom ROM OTA Services: A OTA Update system has been implemented, independent of Sony's FOTA, so that I can send you over there the latest patches and updates of the ROM.
X-Reality & Bravia Engine 2 come preinstalled to enjoy a better image quality.
Do you want to join our beta group? Check here.
Current stable version: 4.6 (2016-05-06)

- Reboot and wait until the system completes the upgrade.
All bugs and faulty apps, excepting some Sony camera apps were removed or fixed! (Thanks to some tweaking and modding)
Settings app functionality has been extremely improved! Now, the 3 main required-add-ons of the ROM, APN Config, YAAB and OTA Updater have been integrated directly into the Settings, and thus, removed from the launcher to avoid duplicate functions. (APN Config is under Settings → More → Install new APNs, YAAB under Settings → Screen → Automatic brightness, and OTA Updater under Settings → About device → System updates). Also, the Settings icons have been replaced by the new Xperia X ones.
New BootAnimations. Yes, you read it well, bootanimations, since now, in the first boot, you'll be presented with a color-changing bootanimation to let you know if the first boot is doing well, or frozen. When first boot is done, it's replaced with regular Xperia X bootanimation, which I'm quite sure you'll love it
New Android-N-style notification shade and Emojis from Developer Preview 2! As I already previewed some days ago, here you've the flattish Android N style notification shade, plus some new emojis right from Android N, featuring support for Unicode 9!
Support for XPERIA Companion (and PC Companion) added!
A small Stagefright patch has been applied to the system, to avoid MMS RCEs. For those upgrading from older versions, in order to activate it, please, wipe data of the Xperia Messaging app.
New Number Assistant app included, letting you block unwanted calls and SMSs.
Updated launcher (Xperia Home 10.0.A.0.40), featuring slide-down-to-search function right from the desktop and app drawer icon rearrange (if wanted).
New Xperia X system sounds added, featuring new ringtones and notifications.
All System apps, and SuperSU package were updated to it's latest version as of today.
And some other things I can't recall right now...
Old versions:
Version 4.5-MU1 and 4.5b-MU1
Beta release channel it's going to be considered 4.5b-*** from now on, instead of the old 4.5b3, which is now a non-sense.
NotoColorEmoji font has been updated to use Android 6.0.1 emojis. You'll need an external keyboard to use the new emojis, such as Fleksy.
Settings has been slightly redesigned, following Xperia X series look and feel.
The gap between the network indicator and the battery icon has been reduced considerably.
A better PS4 Remote Play port has been included. I've no idea if it works , so if anyone owns a PS4, please test it and report.
SEMCcolorExtraction was faulty, making multimedia LED to stop working in Album and Video app. Now that's fixed.
Xperia Home has been updated to 10.0.A.0.24, featuring Double Tap to sleep in the launcher.
Hosts updated
Version 4.5 (Full changelog since 4.0)
New installer! Now it detects what Xperia M2 model you own (No needs of any extra patches!) - Plus, it directly installs for you latest MultiRecovery compilation (MR0.8), RIC Defeat and SuperSU, just in case you need it.

New launcher! Launcher has been updated to 10.0.A.0.5, featuring more translations, and some other cool features (plus, sliding down from home screen to show search has been disabled). Also, it has been set in 'Classic Mode' as default. You can go back to the automatic one in Xperia Home Settings.

Version 4.5b1; Few day-one bugfixes.
Version 4.0; Initial version.
Apart from some faulty camera apps, like Sweep Panorama, and video mode in AR Effect, everything is working as intended.
Any sporadic bug might be easily solved by reinstalling the ROM, or by wiping Dalvik cache and/or Data.
For example: Camera app crashes → Wipe Dalvik and it should be solved.
WARNING:
If you experience any major hardware issue during XPERIA Z5 STYLE usage, please, check here and proceed as described.

- Copy the ROM to your SD-card or Internal Memory. Reboot your device and when you see blue/cyan LED while in the Sony Logo, tap many times the Vol- button if you want to use PhilZ or Vol+ to use TWRP.
[I personally don't recommend PhilZ anymore. Use TWRP instead.]
- If on TWRP: Go to Wipe, Advanced, and choose Data, cache and Dalvik cache. // If on PhilZ: Go to Wipe and Format and do a factory reset.
- Go back and choose Install Zip, Choose from /sdcard if it is in the Internal Memory or /sdcard1 if it's in the SD.
- Choose the Z5-STYLE-x.x.zip and install it. After 4~5 minutes it will be ready to go!
- Now flash SuperSU 2.52 Beta + RIC Disabler (with Extras) + MultiRecovery 0.7 Flashable from the 'Flashable Zips you'll need' section inside Downloads. Do it one by one.
- In case you own a D2302 or D2305, flash the patch for it now.
- Now reboot. After 10 minutes, it should have booted up.
- You'll see you have No Wallpaper, so tap and hold on a blank space inside your desktop, choose themes and apply Dark or White one on your preference.
Install Instructions (OPEN BOOTLOADER):
- Flash an FTF of the compilation 18.6.A.0.175, grab one for your device here - http://forum.xda-developers.com/xperia-m2/general/ftf-download-centre-xperia-m2-t3157411
- Root following this guide: http://forum.xda-developers.com/xperia-m2/general/unlocked-bl-root-sony-xperia-m2-android-t3214498
- Copy the ROM to your SD-card or Internal Memory. Reboot your device into TWRP recovery (Pressing the Vol- button while it's off, then power it on and stop pressing Vol- when it boots into TWRP).
- Go to Wipe, Advanced, and choose Data, cache and Dalvik cache.
- Go back and choose Install Zip, Choose from /sdcard if it is in the Internal Memory or /sdcard1 if it's in the SD.
- Choose the Z5-STYLE-x.x.zip and install it. After 4~5 minutes it will be ready to go!

Changelog:
Version 4.5b2
New installer! Now it detects what Xperia M2 model you own (No needs of any extra patches!) - Plus, it directly installs for you latest MultiRecovery compilation (MR0.8b) and RIC Defeat, just in case you need it. If you need SuperSU, go and flash a SuperSU zip.
New launcher! Launcher has been updated to 10.0.A.0.5, featuring more translations, and some other cool features (plus, sliding down from home screen to show search has been disabled)
Some apps where restored back too! Per suggestion of some users, Email and Internet (Sony's stock web browser) are back, and, Small apps theme has been changed to Z5 style.
Clock style has been changed! Both the homescreen widget and the lockscreen one use bold font ONLY for hours. Now looks cleaner.
Some camera optimizations! Now you can choose 5MPx too in Manual & SuperiorAuto mode, plus, some random crashes such as turning on video mode from the lockscreen have been fixed. (MANY MANY THANKS to @boyrock for this! Go thank him!)
Sound quality has been improved, using my own 'Headphone-quality-mod'.
Versión 4.0; Initial version.
Known bugs:
My APNs are not downloading automatically, what should I do?
Configure them manually... I'll try to fix that for the next one
My screen is not working to touch anymore after flashing the Zip?!?!
That's a Sony's Kernel bug present in all 0x0800 screens, and I can't fix that.
The solution for me is to lock my device, and after 3 seconds, turn the screen back on and it should be working ok again.
Screenshots:
And MANY MANY THANKS to:
Gaurav007 & Nathan Ali Ashari for their big job on the deodexed Rom, AleksJ for his great support, the Recoveries and Ric Disabler, Miche1Asso for his collection of tweaks to optimize Lollipop at it's max, boyrock for his Camera Resolution mods, and baris27, gamzekal & jimRnor for some of their Xperia Z5 Apps & Plugins Ports.
ENJOY!

Quality is almost the same than stock, but, IMO, it looks decent enough. I can upload some samples if you want to. And in night conditions it has improved way much. Give it a try. BTW, the UI is the Z5 v2 camera so at least it's something fresh.
//EDIT: Check this sample I just took:

Can you be a bit more specific? What happens exactly? Here is working as intended at least.

The patch should correct that, use it if you need it.
Z5 v2 Camera UI Test - Working fine here.
BTW, recorded using SCR Screen Reocorder 5+ for Lollipop. This one.
Remember to: Disable MIC Audio or will crash & to Set a path for Non-root recording saving, or will crash.

Wow, great job guys!
Will try this asap.
Edit: If I'm on Lollipop atm, do I need to do the first step of installing, to be exact, flashing the 5.1.1 ftf?

If you're on a clean Lollipop installation, you can skip flashing the FTF.
I just added that step in case you're on a custom rom like Omni or CM
Only issues I've encountered:
1. Auto downloading network settings is not working (but it was mentioned and easy to handle).
2. Auto screen dimming is not working on my device (D2303).
