Help : Acer Iconia one 10 B3-A30 - General Questions and Answers

Hi,
I recently got a Acer iconia one 10 B3-A30 as a gift. Attempting to root unlocked bootloader but as theres no custom recovery I decided to build one from source but i need to dump the partions for all the relavent data. without root it seems unlikely to dd if a partion. anyone know how i could get enough info without root to build a CWR img from source?
Thanks Rob6.0

It might be possible for you to use fastboot to boot temporarily boot a CWM or TWRP without actually flashing, this can be done with a recovery that isn't specifically built for your exact model, it won't harm your device because it doesn't flash the recovery onto the device, it only boots and is gone when you reboot.

no luck as fastboot default base is 0x00000 is there a way i can find my recovery kernel base address. so i can use fastboot -b (kernel address) boot recovery.img ?
Thanks Rob

Hi Rob.
Did you manage to do it? Which is the command to boot with a recovery without flashing? Which custom recovery can be used for this tablet?
Thanks

Still working on it
The command is fastboot boot (pathtocustomrecov)
But I'm still getting invalid kernel address trying to get SP flash tool to backup stock but not having much luck without a scatter file :s

Rob, according to a tweet from SRS Root, they can root various versions of the B3-A30.
Do a search for "acer b3-a30 root srsroot" to check it out. I've not yet tried it myself (just got the tablet yesterday).
Hopefully that can help you out.

I've tried with srsroot and didn't work thanks in any case. Any other idea?

Hi i would also like to root my Acer B3 A30
Can you send me the Scatter File i will then try to root and share the procedure if it works

Please, could you share with us how did you do it finally? Thanks

wanted to buy this model B3-A30-K6YL could you please post rooting directions? would an app like king root work for it?

I would love to have root on this tablet also. Please share!

I'm quite interested too, modding this fw looks essential !
So please could you explain to newbie like me and write a brief guide, Rob... :good:
Please, before you forget how you did!

Any news on the root method???

could someone send me the scatter files and the oem rom? have a softbricked device here, factory reset does nothing.

[Q] How To safely revet to stock recovery if needed? (Moto G)

Hello everyone!
Hopefully somebody can help me on this, I do think so.
I have succesfully unlocked the bootloader of my Moto G (xt1032, EU retail, Android 4.4.4) . Now, I want to root it. In order to do that, I need to flash a custom recovery. I know how to do that. But is there any way I can revet to the stock recovery, just in case if something goes wrong?
I'll make a nandroid backup as the recovery is flashed. But if I want to restore it a some point, the custom recovery is still there.
How can I revet to the stock one then? Maybe something from this link is gonna help me out????

Flashing the stock recovery or performing a factory reset won't help you fix this because rooting a device modifies the /system partition and using stock recovery to factory reset won't work because the stock recovery can't wipe anything from the /system partition, factory reset in stock recovery only wipes your /data partition, the cache partition and internal storage(user space). Only a custom recovery can touch the system partition, stock recovery can not do anything to modify the system partition unless you are flashing a stock update.zip or an OTA update.
You can flash TWRP and then a custom ROM if any are available for your specific model number, but it will only work if your bootloader is unlocked, if your bootloader is locked, you can't flash TWRP or custom ROMs.
If TWRP and a ROM are not an option, then your only other option is to find the full stock firmware and reflash the device with the firmware.
If TWRP/ROMs are not available and you can't find the stock firmware, you won't be able to fix this.

. bat

Hi, looking to root my device and in a tutorial it mentions running the windows. bat file?
I don't remember doing this other times I have rooted...
What is it?
How do I run it? Can I just open up cmd in the fastboot location and run it like that?
Been a while since I have rooted or flashed anything so I'm rusty.
Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks.!

... actually the tutorial is for flashing Philz... I will root through recovery...
So, if anyone could give me the best advice for flashing Philz on a Huawei device, it would be all the more appreciated. There are a few tutorials but they seem to be leaving out some specifics.

I figured I could just extract the .img to the fastboot location (as I think I have done on other devices, though not Philz recovery) and just flash from there using cmd but not sure what command to use...
I also seem to remember reading you can't or shouldn't flash recovery in fastboot?
Thanks for your help.

You absolutely can, but please be sure that recovery was built specifically for your device. The fastboot command is: fastboot flash recovery (name of) recovery.img

Help, trying to flash via recovery acer a1-830

hello,
Acer iconia a1-830, I'm trying to flash a stock firmware SDs_Acer_AV0K0_A1-830_1.007.00_WW_GEN1.zip
i saw this file for a1-830 acer, it says like this
Firmwares
Flashable via (stock) Recovery
A1-830
SDs_Acer_AV0K0_A1-830_1.007.00_WW_GEN1.zip
SDs Acer_AV0K0_A1-830_RV01RC02_WW_GEN1.zip
SDs_Acer_AV0K0_A1-830_RV01RC05_WW_GEN1.zip
So i downloaded SDs_Acer_AV0K0_A1-830_1.007.00_WW_GEN1.zip,
i assume it's flashable via android system recovery, so copied the file to my microsd card and boot to recovery then only option i know to flash it by "apply update from external storage" then select the file.
it gives me this error installation aborted.. it is trying to find update package.
tried changing file name to update.zip still the same error. i know i'm doing it wrong.
anyone knows how to flash this files to my acer iconia a1-830?
thanks in advance.:laugh:
Then i think the file is corrupted.Try flashing through cwm or twrp recovery

Thanks for the reply..
BTW, the reason why i'm flashing stock firmware is because i'm stuck in a bootloop... and hard reset not able to fix it..
i'm still researching on cwm or twrp recovery.

Have you tried TWRP or CWM? If you are searching for TWRP or CWM for acer iconia then http://www.cwm-twrp-recovery.co/2015/08/acer-iconia-a1-830-5930.html
has the both recovery files (the guy rewrite the post from Xda, i cant find the original article to share)and there are few comments on that post.I haven't try because i dont have the device.You may try the guide and replay me if it works thanks.

That site is a joke. I tried to download Lollipop for my a1 830 and the file turned out to be CENTos. It installed fasterweb spyware on my machine after going through the survey process.
I am also stuck in a bootloop. If you know how to solve this please reply. I cant find a working recovery file but I will give you a headsup on what worked when it works

Install driver first just connect phone to pc or use adb installer for driver installation.
Then unplug it if driver installed properly.
Extract/Open SP_Flash_Tool_v3.1252
Click "Scatter-loading"then browse "MT6575_Android_scatter_emmc"inside the Firmware.
Hit Download button.
Hold volume down then connect to PC and wait until flashing is done.

[Completed] Need 6044D Alcatel Pop Up stock rom or boot.img or recovery.img

I'm trying to compile Android from source with BBQLinux and the guide from codeworkx (thank u sooo much):
https://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2695242
But there is a step where it asks for boot.img or recovery.img of the phone and I can't access to mine cause I didn't have it rooted when it blew up. I can just access fastboot and was trying to flash custom recovery but it is not out there out of the box compiled by someone else so I decided to do it and then sahre it here. The thing is that I am stuck here. If someone has custom recovery for my phone model would be awesome but I still want to compile the whole thing in order to learn a bit. Please help me, I need the boot.img or recovery.img.
Thank u in advance!!
