EUUs_SBK_Acer_A501_0.017.01_PA_ATT is intended for the A501, but is a very early image.

I also think the A500 EEU should work fine, you would just have to use an A501 ROM after to enable the 3G chip (hopefully, the bootloader isn't hardware specific).

Yet I haven't confirmation from someone with A501.
[Acer Iconia A500] Timelord83:
ugh its like my atrix all over again.. Locked Bootloaders are to stop us modders only and its Dumb as **** IMO. but whatever we will find a way around it we always do. :(

Would love an A501 section or subsection. We have 3.2 OTA in Australia.
[Acer Iconia A500] Lorthirk:
Can't you download official OTA from the packages thread, put it in sdcard, reboot in recovery and install it?

Just trying to help :)

Hi, I'm new here and have updated to OTA 3.2. How to know if my 3G module is 4G as I'm only seeing HSDPA connection instead of HSPA+?2
[Acer Iconia A500] FloatingFatMan:
Are you in a region that has LTE support? If not, you won't get it. Perhaps try a speed test, not sure if the tablet shows a different symbol for LTE connections.
[Acer Iconia A500] arnelm2002:
Thanks for replying, I'm need to check with service provider if they have 4G.

Btw, are all A501 4G already? Got this unit in Singapore just 2 months ago.
[Acer Iconia A500] arnelm2002:
Thanks floatingfatman. I will ask the Service provider if they offer 4G.

Btw, are all A501 4G ready?

I got this unit 2months ago in Singapore.
[Acer Iconia A500] alvarodv:
Hi,

I´m not sure that here is the correct place to put my question but I´ll try after research a lot of other threads.

I bought a Acer Iconia A501 from Amazon and there was no mention that it should come locked to AT&T even if it was a "no contract" phone.

I live in Brazil where we don´t have AT&T carrier and noe I´m with a tablet with $g where I cannot use the 3G sim card cause it asks me to enter a 16 digit code to unlock the device.

My question is, is there a way to unlock it using a no stock rom. If I flash it with a rom like HoneyVillain ROM my device will be unlocked to use with other networks than AT&T ?

Sorry but I´m totally newbie and bad english user.

Thanks a lot,

Alvaro
[Acer Iconia A500] Timelord83:
bumping this thread again as i the A501 is a different machine just the 4g modem in it makes it different. not to mention AT&T still isn't rolling out 3.2 i am still at 3.0.1 with no update available. sucks surfing random posts wondering if it will work on my tab or not and it gets really old asking in every post if its A501 compatible, just to hear.. "i don't know, but it should"
[Acer Iconia A500] sptani:
can A501 rooted by the same way as A500?
[Acer Iconia A500] :
If you're still on HC 3.1 you can, if you're on HC 3.2 you have to downgrade to 3.1 first, then flash a pre-rooted HC 3.2 ROM.

I wanna buy a acer a501 at compusa

compusa.com/applications/SearchTools/item-details.asp?EdpNo=940889&CatId=6957

I dont know if is unlocked, i think no...

so, how can i unlock this??
[Acer Iconia A500] :
If by "unlocked" you mean rooted, then NO, it doesn't come rooted. If it comes with HC 3.1 it will be easy to gain root. If not, you'll have to go the PITA route, but can still be attained.

[Acer Iconia A500] Timelord83:
sitting here in the A500 section of the forums and reading all the posts about A500 stuff really kinda makes me sad you have3 diff forums for some phones but can't get a separate place for A501 tab. i mean the mix of info in here is getting bored line confusing. and i hate to bring this up but if it drives the point home i will. A501 is running a DIFFERENT rom than the A500. has 4G LTE/HSPA+ Support and as of yet on ATT doesn't have an update above

Android Version: 3.0.1

Build: Acer_A501_1.037.03_PA_ATT ( i realize ATT is specific to ATT tabs but you get my point)

and all those people that say ohh well an A500 roms works but you loose the 3g modem.. i really don't want to hear it its like buying anything you want for one feature but to update it you have to loose it.. whats the damn point.

[Acer Iconia A500] Timelord83:
Bump bump lets see an A501 section devs.
[Acer Iconia A500] Tapek-AU:
I think either an a501 sub forum or better tagging for roms, kernals etc to specify what is 501 compatible before i open a thread and read something awesome that will be useless to me.

To the guy ignoring everyone saying he wont install a rom and lose 3g, install taboonay 2.2, its amazing and is based on a501 acer rom so doesntbreak anything. The same root instructions for a500 also work, enjoy!
[Acer Iconia A500] fafal:
i think this can be useful to have 501 subsection
[Acer Iconia A500] gmfeny:
Never. Lol jk.

But there really isn't that many roms for the a500/a501 for there to be 2 different sections.
[Acer Iconia A500] cmac168:
I bought a Iconia A501 from the US and locked with AT&T and brought it over here in the Philippines. But it won't accept my local Sim Card.

Any ideas on how to unlock the device from AT&T?
[Acer Iconia A500] Timelord83:
The lack of roms is merely due to the fact it got a pretty locked boot loader fast a500 or a501 international users. And the lack of devs and without a seperate forum I am not even remotely interested in rom development for the public. I have my own custom rom that will stay that way until there is a clear and dedicated A501 section.
[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] TL24:
God damn it, I think I messed up here. I got a replacement G2 since mine has gone bananas! So I got Rooted with S-Off but I think I flashed the DesireZ PC10IMG.zip since I wanted to install doubleshot roms and so on. However after I flashed it my phone gets stuck at the HTC screen now?

When I try to boot into Recovery it's still under Recovery v3.0.2.4 so I can't even restore my phone to a previous back up since these back ups were created with the latest Recovery version.

I went ahead and downloaded the stock G2 Rom from here: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=788489

However, when I renamed it to PC10IMG and put it on the the root of the SD-Card Bootloader will not flash the .zip and I get some sort parsing message and I get right back to the Bootloader screen.

I also can't follow the guide here: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=999796 - to restore the stock H-Boot since I can't even boot the damn thing!

HELP!
[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Nipqer:
Flash a new rom in recovery, or if you have eng hboot, flash latest recovery, restore nandroid.

-Nipqer
[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gee one:
What does it say when you go into the bootloader? There should be a hboot version towards the top of the screen?

Also, have you tried flashing a rom using recovery? It sounds like it is working- just get a normal rom, nothing that is named PC10IMG.zip. Maybe try one of the CM stable releases.

are you talking about shooting video or watching hd? cause the sensation does both stock no need for an app
[HTC Sensation] htctp2-89:
Watching YouTube videos in HD.
[HTC Sensation] HigherSensation:
I think HQ is the same as HD
[HTC Sensation] moshe22:
Go into the YouTube app

Click on menu button

Select settings

Then first option should be watch HQ videos on mobile or something similar, this will display the highest available quality

bummer, i somehow read supertube as studierstube, which is something completely different (and more like an api then an app) :rolleyes: :o
[HTC Sensation] yetep:
Keepvid works wonders for watching YouTube in actual 720p or 1080p if available (however you'd never notice any difference between the two on the screen, you'd just notice a bigger WiFi/net usage). It's no longer on the market probably cause it let's you download the videos aswell as stream, so the good old phrase 'google is your friend' comes to mind. App name is "keepvid" :)
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] accordex:
Does any one know, why after all these years & devices, Google android and the manufacturers of these devices cannot come up with an accessory standard for these phones?

I know 99% use micro usb...but...they are placed in different spots on each phone, thus eliminating the possibility to create universal accessories made for ANDROID...like apple has...you know... thousands of products from simple alarm clocks to home theater/car receivers, all compatible with their whole line...

Why not create a standard with android and profit from the sales of these things?

Droid phones clearly outsell Iproducts, but only due to the fact that there are 100's of them in different variations...so why not keep those choices while somewhat universalizing them...?

I have no interest in buying an Ianything, they are not made for people like me that love to tweak/customize, try different things with their device... I would, however like to be able to go to frys and pick up a $30 alarm clock / desktop cradle etc.. I can dock/charge my phone in... then NOT having to buy them again once I updgrade / change phones...

Any thoughts? :)

[myTouch 4G General] nguyendqh:
I just thought this was worth sharing.

I own an MT4G. In my year of having it I have gone through 6 replacements.

None with the SO Type 2 Panel.

Tonight (actually 10 minutes ago) I just got back from buying my wife an MT4G.

It has a cracked digitizer but otherwise works just fine.

The touch screen is still responsive in every corner and every side.

Even where it's cracked. I got this phone for 30 bucks. 30....

My wife now has a MT4G with a superior screen. SO Type 2.

FML!

P.S. She won't switch with me even though she doesn't see the difference.

She just knows that I want it, she has it, I don't have it and that's the way she likes it.

[myTouch 4G General] mackster248:
Lol dude that's funny.

Just buy a new digitizer to replace that broken one. Then fix your wife's phone.

Then do the magical switcharoo. She won't tell the difference, lol.
[myTouch 4G General] nguyendqh:
Yeah I'm trying to find one now for it. Been watching some videos trying to get a handle on it.
[myTouch 4G General] Metaleckz:
How do you know if you have the superior screen?
[myTouch 4G General] nguyendqh:
There's a thread under "General" that shows you how to find out.

A rooted way and an unrooted way.

Search "bad display" in the "General" forum.

Are you rooted or unrooted?
[myTouch 4G General] Metaleckz:
Rooted . Ill look into it
[myTouch 4G General] nguyendqh:
All you gotta do is turn off the phone (make sure fastboot is off)

then boot in to bootloader.

Hold volume down and press the power button. Hold it until you see the bootloader screen.

Go down to system info and look for something along the lines of SH-C2 or SO-C2.

SO is superior, SH is not.

Good luck.
[myTouch 4G General] Metaleckz:
I got the lcd so c2 lol now I know mine is good
[myTouch 4G General] nguyendqh:
Awesome. But wait til you see the difference then you'll REALLY know.

I swear even with a broken digitizer on my wife's phone my phone can't even compare.
[myTouch 4G General] biggd7419:
My lady would do the same exact thing.
[myTouch 4G General] Jms122589:
i have the SH version, honestly i cant see anything wrong with my screen. iv compared it to other android phones and it is brighter and more defined, (evo g2, varius others) so idk maybe i need to really compare the two, btw my lady would trade with me:)
[myTouch 4G General] Infrared28:
Yea I have the good screen and one of my family members got the phone, and I immediately noticed that they had got the bad screen. I was like...... :o. Seriously the difference is great

Saturation? Color? Contrast?
[myTouch 4G General] ayamjago:
30 bucks... can it be any cheaper?
[myTouch 4G General] Infrared28:
The screen is just seriously washed out in comparison. I don't want to use any terms incorrectly, so im just gonna keep it at that.
[myTouch 4G General] netter123:
I went through several bad screens before getting a good one, and wife still has the bad one. I was checking out my friend's Sensation and immediately noticed that he has the bad screen. Apparently HTC is still shipping both screens even on their latest models. Will definitely be cautious if I go with another HTC phone after this.
[myTouch 4G General] Skipjacks:
I'm expecting my 2nd MT to arrive tomorrow.

If I haven't seen the bad screen, would I even know something is off? Like if my first phone had a bad screen and the new one does to, would I even guess that there's a problem?

I mean do you have to see a good and bad one side by side to know the difference?

Or is it like watching HDTV for years then trying to watch a show on an old 1920's black and white?

[Nook Color Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] envygreen:
I've seen a couple of threads that explain how I ended up where I am I think, but nothing so far on how to get out of it. So, any advice?

I updated to the 209 nightly the usual way (emmc install via clockwork recovery after wiping cache and dalvik) and it booted, started loading my home screen and clock widget, and then crashed completely and rebooted. Repeatedly.

I tried fixing permissions. I tried downgrading my version to 207, I tried upgrading to 210 and later 211. It either freezes or reboots.

After reading that the latest version of superuser needed to be installed before updating nightlies to avoid this type of problem and that it tied into overclocking, I was able to get into my nook by quickly going to the overclock settings and taking my max cpu down to 600 before it had a chance to lock and reboot. Yay right?

But the second I reboot, I have the same problem unless I race to undo the overclock again. Anything I can do to fix this? Or am I screwed and need to find an old backup or start from scratch again?

[Samsung Infuse 4G] RazorWare:
I've recently tried the Quadrant Standard Benchmark and noticed that my phone's score is severely lower than that of other reviewer's benchmarks? I usually score between 960-1060. Any Idea why I'm not getting into the 1100s? Even my brother's Infuse reached 1300.
[Samsung Infuse 4G] theROMinator:
Quadrant scores necessarily don't mean squat. But just out of curiosity, what have you done to your phone? Are you running the stock shipped ROM?
[Samsung Infuse 4G] RazorWare:
I've just rooted it. Bricked it. Used the ultimate Unbrick for Rogers Infuse 4g. Now here I am. One thing I've thought of is space since I have lots of games but eve when I removed almost all of my downloaded Apps. The score hardly improved. I'm wondering whether for those games(mainly Gameloft) where they require a larger download to fully install, when you uninstall those games are the rest of the files from the extra download still on ur phone taking up space?
[Samsung Infuse 4G] theROMinator:
To be honest, if you're not noticing any lag then all should be fine. I recommend running a custom ROM. pretty much all the infuse roms convert your system to ext4 which is much faster than stock. If you need help with anything don't hesitate to ask, but in the right forum :)
[Samsung Infuse 4G] diablo009:
Apps don't influence ur score much. These scores are based on how ur CPU, GPU and memory works, not based on how apps work.

Repeat the quadrant a couple times in a row. First run always seems to give lower values. After 1-2 runs, take average of next 2-3 and you will get the proper score.

Reboot your phone, give it some time to settle, and then run quadrant.

But like pointed above, stock ROMs give lower scores than custom mainly cos of faster file system. Plus, I enabled GPU based graphics by updating my build.xml and am getting about 1800 with my clock set at max 800.
[Samsung Infuse 4G] Dani897:
apps running in the background can consume resources and affect the score. also rogers roms tend to score lower. it was that way on the captivate too. btw what's a build.xml? do you mean build.prop?

and to the op your score is in line with what you can expect. if you dont have any specific issues i wouldnt worry about it. quadrant is soo sensitive to atleast 2 areas (encoding/decoding media and file system reads) but not others that you can take an infuse to 4200 but it isnt gonna do too much that it didnt do before.
[Samsung Infuse 4G] Phatphool:
They really don't!! Neither does Antutu or Linpack.. Gives you a different number every time LOL!! But Definitely look at some of the other roms out there! The few dev's we have left need all the support we can give them!! THANKS INFUSE DEV's!!!!
