[A511] [29-06-2012] Stock firmwares

Possibly it's better to split A510 and A511 stock rom firmware list?
Here's the list of A511 ROMs I have found (looks like just one downloadable so far):
Acer_AV041_A511_0.003.00_WW_GEN1
Acer_AV041_A511_0.008.00_WW_GEN1
Acer_AV041_A511_1.011.00_WW_GEN1 (download here) - translation
Acer_AV041_A511_1.028.00_EMEA_DE
Acer_AV041_A511_1.032.00_WW_GEN1 (available through FOTA on my device)
Acer_AV041_A511_1.035.03_WW_GEN1 (mentioned on benchmark website)
Regards,
Nika.

Added new version:
"Acer_AV041_A511_1.032.00_WW_GEN1 (available through FOTA on my device)"

Sure, that's the A511. Might depend on the region though...

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

Bricked - Stuck on Samsung Galaxy Note 10.1 Screen

Hi,
I bought a bricked Galaxy Note 10.1 GT-N8000 and managed to flash stock firmware and booted correctly except for a strange Watermark on screen which showed device specs. Then I tried flashing German Kitkat version thru ODIN which failed, now the device is stuck on Galaxy Note 10.1 screen even though I have tried flashing ODIN many times and it has shown PASS but doesn't go beyond that. It can't even go get into recovery (only can get to ODIN mode). Please help me as i can't go beyond that even though i have searched a lot google, no one seems to have gotten any solution.

34 views but no suggestion!!! It seems mighty developers never bought this phone to suggest something. It's strange ODIN can flash and shows success (firmware or any recovery) but nothing seems to install and make it boot. Pl someone got some idea?

Have you tried flashing a custom rom?.
Just realised you said it wouldn't go into recovery.
Try flashing from another pc
Which version of ODIN are you using?.

No haven't tried custom ROM but probably this device was never rooted but can give that a try. Yes it won't go into recovery at all. I will give try from another PC. I have tried ODIN v. 1.85 and v3.09.

I think it might be a driver issue with your pc if it won't work with v1.85.
Trying reinstalling the Samsung drivers on your pc.

I flashed stock firmware before with the same PC and it worked and I have tried to use same ODIN and same stock firmware which worked before. Even now ODIN says PASS, infact there is no failure at all but device itself is stuck on "Samsung Galaxy Note 10.1" splash screen. I have tried restarting PC, using different USB ports but ODIN always says PASS without problem but device condition is same. I think may be i should change firmware/ stock recovery even though previously the same worked. I am at a loss, don't know what to do?
P.S: Edit: as i was writing these comments I thought of trying out same german kitkat version which earlier broke my device and this time it succeeded and at least device has come out of that splash screen though it is still stuck samsung animation screen. so i will try more and will update. any suggestions are welcome. thanks

ok, now it's possible to get into stock recovery at least, although it shows "E:failed to mount /efs (Invalid argument)" and " Applied the CSC-code : unknown". What to do now? kindly advise

Finally managed to ODIN a stock firmware to work correctly and device is able to boot but show "Broadband: Unknown". Thanks for your help

Can you check your IMEI if its available in setting/device? If its not your EFS is missing or corrupt.

yes, IMEI is Unknown! that means EFS is corrupt! I know the IMEI, I have the box, how can i restore it?

Thanks a lot for the link. I will go through it deeply and try it out and will come back.

Just some food for thought! Since i bought this device bricked and never knew which firmware it came with and tried different firmwares randomly until i found one that could work only with "Factory Mode". My question;
1. Could it be that I flashed a wrong firmware causing this thing to go Factory Mode?
2. Or must it be corrupt EFS folder?
I am asking because now i rooted my device, it is showing one EFS folder and when i tried to flash Philz recovery over TWRP it gave me error that " This package is for 'c).p4noterf.n8000.GT-N8000' devices; this is a 'p4notewifi'.
E:Unable to mount '/efs'.
Any suggestions? Please

I think this efs folder is generated automatically by the android when it can't find one because when i checked it was an empty folder, nothing inside. so may the issue is of broken efs system folder. Can't create my own IMEI since i have the box and IMEI is written on it.

Does this device use SIM to make calls or just for data download? Couldn't figure out! Is there a simple way to get rid of the "Factory Mode"? may be i don't need all that SIM functionality after all but certainly want to get rid of that "Factory Mode".

Can I try this one

Any suggestions, kindly do suggest if i should do whatever is described in the above post or the ones suggested before written below

Please advise which method should i try. Awaiting eagerly for input

Is it possible to use following tool to repair EFS?
http://forum.xda-developers.com/gal...ol-updated-09-06-14-efs-professional-t1308546
Please suggest me something if someone out there know something?

Finally fixed it by using the thread shown above but i have a fake IMEI but factory mode is no longer there and everything is working normally. Is it possible to change IMEI to my own by using methods i have seen on net including youtube? please advise

Hi there.
The Note is a tablet 10.1 wifi version?
Is that I have exactly the same problem as you and I do not know what to do to get my tablet.

Mine is wifi+3G version, its called GT-N8000. Mine was bricked before and I flashed it using ODIN (its available everywhere almost) and stock firmware (you need to use the one installed on it from factory, you can find download link from sammobile site but be careful download the one that is specific for you model no.). Then describe your problem may be i can help you.

[Fix] Stuck on T-Mobile Splashscreen

TechNash said:
Hello, I've been needing some help.
So, I finally figured out how to flash TWRP onto my Samsung Galaxy J7 (2015) (SM-J700T)
I was in the recovery mode, and was flashing magisk root.
When I flashed it, the device said success, so I rebooted the phone.
I saw an error saying:
Verification Failed:
We were unable to restart your phone. The integrity verification has failed. Please reset your phone.
*reset*
I honestly didn't have pictures or anything, so I pressed it. Every time I pressed it I would boot into TWRP or recovery mode.
I couldn't figure it out, but I did some googling and it has happened to people before. People with TWRP, no root. TWRP with root, and people whom had, no root at all.
One reply said to wipe it using TWRP recovery. I pressed the wipe button and slid the thing that said Factory Reset
It would say Error mounting /data
I scrolled some more on the thread and someone said to format it, people said they had success.
now, this is where I am having an issue
It successfully rebooted, but I sit on the T-Mobile Logo. I haven't gone longer than 5 minutes, so maybe I need to wait a while.
Good news:
Successfully installed TWRP.
Am able to mount /data now.
Can still access TWRP (With terminal and flashing, all of that).
Can still modify /data.
Can still boot into Odin/Download mode.
Am able to get to the T-Mobile logo.
Bad news:
Potentially soft bricked my phone, within a matter of 30 seconds.

Nope, I don't. You have been posting misleading threads a lot lately, and I'm aggravated with it.
I just entered Odin mode and pressed cancel to trick the phone into thinking that I uninstalled root. Maybe you should read the full situation before posting some solution that I said I already tried. Plus, my situation had nothing to do with deleting files, my storage was just corrupt.

U would stop having issues if u would follow posts. Every single issue u posted has been addressed and resolved. You are in the wrong section. Should be in the J700T sub forum. That verification fail error is due to u not flashing the encryption break no verity zip. U must flash that after flashing anything. As one of the sole developers for this device I promise you I know that phones file system better than anyone. And what 8.1 rom are u running? There is no such thing unless u compiled one..
And no your files aren't corrupted, they're encrypted.big difference. We dissected those errors over 2 years ago.
You could not have "tricked" your phone into thinking u had root removed, u got it to boot cuz u opted for not being able to mount internal storage due to the existing encryption

Resolved - L29C567B190->Build NRD90M Test-keys-> DLOAD fix fails -> Now Boot Looping
I've been working on the path to have my Mate 9 unlocked, rebranded, and to Pie.
I followed this guide. Not sure why, but I ended up with this:
TWRP Recovery (expected thisi)
Not upgraded to Oreo (unexpected)
Build: NRD90M Test-keys (unexpected and problematic)
I've read that I need to re-install the MHA-L29C567B190 again.
So, I attempted 2-3 times with different downloaded (supposedly MHA-L29C567B190) firmwares to just use TWRP to upgrade. All failed. So, I decided to put a DLOAD directory with the files required onto my SD card and upgrade from the Project Menu.
Of course, I had to reinstall the default recovery to do that. I did that using fastboot.
So at this point, I'm thinking I can do the reinstall of MHA-L29C567B190. So, I did this:
Launched Project Menu (*#*#2846579#*#*)
Select 4. Software Update
1. SDCard Upgrade
Phone restarts and starts the upgrade
I get this message
Software install failed!
Incompatibility with current version. Please download the correct update package.
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
So I presume I get that error because NRD90M Test-keys doesn't even have any compatible versions. I am certain I downloaded the files for MHA-L29C567B190.
Anyone have any suggestions how I can reinstall the Nouget MHA-L29C567B190 over NRD90M Test-keys?
If I can get that fixed, I can struggle again with rebranding.
Any help appreciated.

So, I went out and studied the rebrand instructions, and finally found that I misspelled the HWOTA directory on the SD Card. So I ran that again.
This time it appeared to be working on the install of the 432 software at the end of the process. But it failed for some reason.
Now I'm in a boot loop. My very first. Should I celebrate my first?
So, now on a search to find how to get out of the boot loop. I've tried the various options I do have from the boots into recovery. Exact naming of process I list below may not be accurate, but you'll probably get the idea:
Tried the option to download latest version and image...failed
Tried doing a factory reset...failed
Tried following the rebrand process once more. same results.

Update on attempt to fix bootloop...
I followed this article to repair. I downloaded a fresh c567b190 file, and copied the update.app into dload. Did a force install per the instructions...it failed.
I had another one from a different download site. It failed.
I tried a 432 file from what I was trying to rebrand to. It failed. I do find it interesting that supposedly same files downloaded from different sites are different sizes. As well, some instructions say to only copy update.app to dload, and others say to copy entire set of files/folders that are in the file that update.app is in.
Beginning to worry this phone is toast.
I'm going to search out other 'remedies'.
[EDIT]
I'm pretty sure that the build showing as NRD90M is causing my problems. I suspect the bootloader is checking against the version and "nothing is compatible" with it. So being in a bootloop with the additional problem of wrong build identification is making this difficult.

I don't know if anyone after weekend will see this and/or have any suggestions, but I'll keep updating as I learn things or stumble onto new obstacles.
I do have some success to express.
I used this thread and it got me booted, into Oreo, and a good build.
BUT...(as always)
The instructions on that thread are to unbrick, and install the rebrand files at the same time. However, during the TWRP Install process (after getting Oreo 8.0.0.046(0409) installed. It was supposed to boot into TWRP after installing it, and do that update.
But, yet another error: during TWRP install attempt, got an error about partition size (don't recall if it was too long or short or what. If anyone needs to know to help me get past this I can run it again).
So, the batch file was waiting at a prompt for me to load TWRP so it could continue. But no TWRP. So I found a TWRP for Oreo, and installed it. I then hit the ENTER key for it to continue, but it didn't.
I loaded Firmware Finder on the phone, and it found nothing to work with it. I have no idea what Oreo 8.0.0.046(0409) is even for, or what region it would be from. Can't find it even with Google.
So, here's what I need help with
What's the best way to get to MHA-L29 C432(Europe). Would it be as simple as adding my l29 model in FF, downloading c432, and installing via TWRP? Another way better?
I think I'm off of the keyboards and phone for a while. It's been quite a chase.
Hopefully I'll get some feedback early next week on how to progress.

I as thinking I had the right firmware, MHA-L29C432B194. But as I think about it, I didn't get that from FF. When I add a model of MHA-L29C432B194 in FF, and search, I find it, but I'm not sure which one I need. I understand I need FullOTA-MF-PV for dload. What is there is FULLOTA-MF, and OTA-MF . I suspect it depends on which method of install I use.
I"m thinking about trying booting to TWRP, and 'install' the ZIPS for the firmware. But I haven't seen confirmation that will work. I don't want to end up in another bootloop.

at the end what u want to do ? tell me ?

I have fixed the bootloop problem from a search that I found a tutorial. The problem now is that it left me on an Orea that oeminfo (cust) is lost. It's not recognized as a valid rom.
I have another thread that has migrated to this topic. I think someone there is gathering tools for me.
I apparently need to downgrade to Nouget, and start over my efforts to migrate to c432, which then will auto upgrade me to Pie. Problem so far at this point is finding a good HWOTA8 file. All searches I find that have links are dead links.

if someone gather it let him work. give me what exacly rom u need, full name

Sorry. I am not getting the email notifications of updates. Apparently sometime in the past, I opened a different account here with my current email. It won't let me update my email address here as it is used in that other account. I've tried the Forgot password thing, but the reCAPTCHA just circles and circles and never lets me make the request.
Back on topic: I got it all worked out. I had another thread on topic of the beginning of my process that was pretty much done. But conversation struck back up, and it continued on to a fix for this problem. It's a bit lengthy, and I learned a lot there, thanks to @zgfg.
If anyone wants to see how this was resolved, you can start at Post # 60 at this thread.
Thanks folks for your input here.

Question Rog Phone 5s Pro RAW Files

Hello all,
I am in need of some help please.
I have 18.1220.2109.126 installed presently. I have the EU version/WW version of this phone.
I want to upgrade to the latest firmware but I have an unlocked boot loader and root.
Can someone please provide me with the links for the firmware and an upgrade path from this firmware if i cant go direct?
Thanks
Valen.

as I've wrote a couple times before....
you could've just googled how to manually ota update asus phones. they works more less the same:
1. download the update pkg to the phone.
2. move it to the root of the storage (i.e. the first page you open when you tap internal storage in fm.
3. charge your device to at least 60% and up.
4. reboot the phone.
5. after a while it should give a popup saying update found, tap on it and start local ota.
some notes:
if you want to keep magisk then DONT reboot after ota finished. go to magisk manager and select install to inactive slot. then you can reboot.
This only works for updates not downgrade. if you flashed 31.xxxxx (A12) then you cant go back to 18.xxxx (A11), it won't give you the prompt.
