[Acer Iconia A500] Moscow Desire:
Generally to roll back to stock (factory) you would install a stock rom or an EUU. This effectively wipes out CWM and installs a stock Acer bootloader.

How you have a stock non-rooted rom, WITH CWM recovery is a bit strange. Clearly you were rooted before???

Full packages;

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1113878

Follow the instructions Vach has if the Rom needs decrypted first.

Choose the one you think is for your region (com gen 1 and 2 would probably suit most people)

turn USB Debugging to ON.

Get your current UID NUMBER! I can't stress enough how important this is. Get it, and write it down somewhere. If anything goes wrong, you will need this number. Installing Roms is not 100% successful. If you don't have your UID, and the tab gets bricked, it will be almost impossible to get it back going without the UID number.

Lots of links in the dev threads explaining how to get your UID number. Here's one, with the zip file for USB Deview (x64 and normal pc's);

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1624645

Run your EUU and follow the prompts. Or you can try flashing the *.zip through CWM

is these the latest from acer?
[Acer Iconia A500] Moscow Desire:
It's because you have a "stock" bootloader. IE: No recovery to speak of ;) More or less a couple of basic functions.

Looks like the latest from Acer for the 500. The update they tried to OTA the other week.
[Acer Iconia A500] I7210I:
yes but now i'm with acer from now?including the ota's?

i want to know if i will get update's from them from now?and if i'm fully stocked?
[Acer Iconia A500] dibb_nz:
We can suggest ways to make sure you will have every chance of success in receiving an ota

But no-one can give u a 100℅ guarantee that you will get it

But I am confused, u say you r on 3.2.1

But then u say u did step 4 of civato's guide - loaded an ICS rom

Did I miss something? Did u rollback?

the pictures show u as having ICS stock recovery and rom???

The best way to ensure you are as full stock as u can be, is to apply a hard reset

This will wipe ALL of yr data and you will be required to sign in to google account and setup wifi etc

1) Turn off your tablet,

2) Have the Rotation lock on your left;

3) Press Vol+ (which is closest to the rotation lock) and power on simultaneously

4) As soon as the tablet vibrates you can release the power button and you should start

to switch rotation lock left and right till you see

Erasing Userdata... Erasing Cache... Vol+ is still pressed;

5) The tablet starts the format

6) Your tablet will be as clean as it can be.

Now, try opening Acer recovery installer if it will not 'open' u r not rooted anymore

That's it, there is not alot more u can do,
[Acer Iconia A500] I7210I:
hi

i didn't roll back i did step 4 according to the civato's guide

and the recovery was after i load the rom because i had cwm recovery then

after it...i have stock recovery

and now i have according to the things you said to do these:

[Galaxy S II I9100G Android Development] chewee133:
Hi all,

When buying your

S2 in China

, you while probably have the bad surprise to discover

Google Play is not installed on the device

.

Even by installing some .apk downloaded from the web doesn't solve the issue.

I managed to got mine working. Here's how i did.

I find the hint here

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1351283

You'll need to Root your device first

Here's how it goes:

1) Install GoogleServicesFramework.apk

This seems to be the issue, as when you install it you can see the permissions Google requires, and pretty much says it can access

ALL the data

in your phone,

even the private stuff

. You've been warned. (what did you expect? it's still Google after all)

2) Install Google Play with any .apk you can find,

as system app

(see bellow):

Instructions (Thanks to Bandage)

-1. Transfer the .apk files to your Kindle Fire via PC / Mac (remember where you put them)

- 2. Open Root Explorer App, and navigate to the transferred .apk files

- 3. Select the GoogleServiceFramework.apk and install

- 4. When complete, click "Done" and return to the file location for Vending.apk

- 5. Long-press Vending.apk and select the "Move" option on pop-up menu

Navigate to /system/app folder

- 6. Change mount option from RO to RW (read-only to read-write)

Paste Vending.apk into the /system/app folder

- 7. Long-press Vending.apk and select "Permissions" from pop-up menu

Change permissions to match all other apps in this folder (rw-r--r--)

- 8. Install Vending.apk

- 9. Reboot device

3) Launch Google Play

You should now be able to input your account and login.

For the first login, you will probably need to turn on both Wifi and APN (also can try turning off Wifi and only use APN).

You can now browse the market, but still can not install any apps.

Final step:

You'll need to send some e-mail to Google (go to google play web site -> help). Explain the problem, they need to allow Play to be used by your device.

Took me a couple e-mail to get it right. The google team was very kind open to help (unlike samsung).

Go ahead and install any app you want

I recommend starting by installing Market Unlocker (especially for those in China). It lets you get the market as if you where in another country.

Hope this has been useful.

And don't forget to press the Thanks button ;)

I actually did this a while ago (I wanted to try it out first before sharing). So i may be forgetting some specific points. Let me know how it turns out for you so i can update this How To.

Cheers

Chewee

May the force be with you
[Galaxy S II I9100G Android Development] yangxiups:

I tried many other ways, but they just would not work on my I9100G!

Just now I have tried this simple method and it works perfectly.

For me the final step is not necessary.

I did add all google services on my chinese G in november, i basically have all google services working, including calendar sync, and still on stock GB.

What i did was to take all the google apps from CM and put them in the system app folder with correct permissions.

But i remember i did setup gmail sync before getting google market (now play store) to work correctly.

For the calendar, only the sync adapter is needed, do not replace other apps, it's not needed.
[Galaxy S II I9100G Android Development] shivaraman:
HI I followed the steps but at stage 3 after reboot I open google play it 'force closes' automatically. I cannot open play app. What may be the issue. This is Chinese phone, i also tried one of the market unlcker.. is there any specific version you can suggest ?

Ok now it opens google play and displays 'loading' but nothing appears. Funny that when I try to install it from website it says 'app will be sent/installed on your phone shortly' but nothing happens

I installed a market unlocker (some random one which configured my China phone for USA T-mobile - there are other countries i can configure for too)

Any guess what could be problem ?
[Galaxy S II I9100G Android Development] toctan:
It's not the right way!!!

It seems to work properly, but it may cause some problem, frequent FC for example. And some apps even can't work, such as Foursquare, which you can have a try.It's not only the Google Play but also the whole gapps that are not included in the Chinese ROM. The GoogleServicesFramework.apk and GooglePlay.apk are just part of it, so this problem can't be solved by simply installing some apks.

The right way is to download the right gapps from this page: goo.im/gapps and flash it from CMW.To do that, you must flash a kernel first, such as superatoms, lucir.

Or, you can simply root your phone and decompress that zip file and move it to your phone to the right folder.Never forget to fix the permission. You'd better do that through adb.
[Galaxy S II I9100G Android Development] kldoc:
I can't agree with what you're saying. I have a chinese G and installed all google apps from Cyanogen wiki, with the exception of goggles, everything else work perfect !

They just released the ICS 4.0.4 ROM for China, that one also does not have any of the GAPPS, in addition some

service providers actively block Google services so installing GAPPS will do no good unless you set up a VPN

If you are talking about the root, their are a lot of threads talking about how to do it on xda, and all over the web.
[Galaxy S II I9100G Android Development] Minnieeggs12:
I think I may need an 'idiots guide' to all this because I have no clue and no idea what flash and all thats means.... I brought my S2 online and had no idea it was coming from China and that it won't have Google Play on there.

I have tried the above steps but can't even get the 1st one right.. :/

I have tried downloading 'Google Service Framework.apk' from my phone and computer but everytime it tries to install it, it finishes by saying 'Application Not Installed'. Really getting very confused and need urgent help. Please can you let me know where I am going wrong? Many thanks.
[Galaxy S II I9100G Android Development] chewee133:
Seems you didn't root your phone.

But before doing anything, you should learn a little bit what you are about to do. There are several threads on root issues, or guides for begginers.

Also, double check if you have the i9100 or i9100G version. It's important when you root.
[Galaxy S II I9100G Android Development] Minnieeggs12:
Thanks very much. Its the i9100. I'll try that. I used to think I was good with phones but after reading all this, I don't actually know jack all about them, lol!
[Galaxy S II I9100G Android Development] Minnieeggs12:
Just wondering about kernel version number too. Mine says '2.6.35.7-I9100'. Does this seem right? Thanks
[Galaxy S II I9100G Android Development] chewee133:
You are checking the android version. That's not what's important. What you need to check is to take the same kernel version and rom version called basedband version (may be the similar with the build number). For example i have the i9100gzcle2 version. There are some threads about this around here.

Help with some Apps after ICS

Guys help me here plz.. I have a couple of issues,and cant find relevant info.

Background. I am usgin SGS2-I9100G (Chinese) flased with ICS 4.0.4 (baseband-I9100GZCLPG/kernel-3.08 se.infra@SEP-85 #2) (rooted with temp CWM)

1.Followed the above to get Google play working. Installed Market enabler (dint help much, just says market configured to t-mobile USA but still google play website shows China-unicom) I am not able to install many apps because of this

-Google My tracks

-FX currency converter

many others that I would like to use alternative apps are also giving same issue.

2.I am not able to get google account in the contacts. When I go into

Contacts > Properties > accounts> Add accounts I see only skype, tango, whatsapp. The same under "add accounts" It is not listing google. Is it supposed to in first place ?

if yes how can I get it?

3.I am not able to install Viber and Voxer even with Apk. It keeps saying "Application not installed" They both dint work on GB too.

---------- Post added at 04:15 PM ---------- Previous post was at 03:50 PM ----------

@toctan can you plz help me with this.. which folder do u mean when you say "the right folder" ?? I am running ICS and my phone is rooted.
[Galaxy S II I9100G Android Development] chewee133:
Hi shivaraman.

I'm not sure i understand exactly what is your problem. Do you have Play installed? Can you install some apps with it? If yes, you're all good.

Market enabler is only going to help.you once you get Play working correctly. Market Enabler doesnt fix Play. It only simulate you are from another country, as if you changed your sim card.

I figured out this methode using android 2.3.6. There is no guaranty it works on ICS. I would suggest trying swiching back to 2.3.6 (if possible, it might be the hatdest part) and try the methode again. Play stays installed when upgrading to 4.0.4

A lot of apps are blocked due to the chinese ROM. Seem the bootloader is posing the problem and is locked. I still didnt find any solution for that. A couple month ago Odia started posting he may had a solution. But he never told what it was.

[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] amswak:
When I picked up the phone I had the same problem. I had to change from the non-LTE data plan to the LTE plan when I activated the phone. When I called tech support after realizing I wasnt getting messages it took her about 20 minutes of trying different things to ask if I had text messaging in my plan. I said of course, and she said it was not shown in my current services. After putting that back on the plan, it worked like a charm. Not sure why it got dropped when nothing else was to be changed on my plan. You might want to double check your plan.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] silencery:
Hrm... thanks for the replies! I'll look into those suggestions.

Right now the phone can receive, just not send SMS. It's supposed to have a text plan, but i'll verify that with ATT.

Even if it didn't have a text plan though, isn't ATT's default behavior to still send the text message and charge the ad hoc rate per message?
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] amswak:
I thought so too, but when I asked they said I wouldnt be able to send messages without it on my plan...

I will answer this one.

You will need the HoneyStreak R2.

To get the version that has DJ STEVE'S image R2 is the one I saw it on. And this is one you have to NVFLASH. I do not know if any version in between r2 and r8 has it or not but I know r8 has a different one.

All of them are here on the wiki http://xdaforums.com/wiki/Dell_Streak_7/ROMs Choose WIFI or 4G which ever you need.

booted my phone into download mode, and flashed the older, but correct recovery.tar file under PDA using Odin 1.85.

rebooted into recovery and flashed ROM, everything went smooth.

I tried the May build and it wouldn't flash for whatever reason, so I had to go and get the build from April, might want to do that first in case, it was annoying to have to keep booting into android after wiping everything.
