To boot push power button and vol +.

In my case I can't reflash any due to an error with eMMC, but if your flash memory is OK, you will be able to install a ROM.

PS: It's only an idea based in my experience, I can't guarantee you anything.

.... Because the down volume sucks.

There is no click on mine. Seems that the button it permanently half pressed down. If for any reason there is ANY pressure in my pocket or anything, it will activate the button and put the volume all the way down.

It's a shame really, since i got the phone working PERFECTLY and running exactly how I want it to.

Anyone else have this issue? If so, what did they say?

I'll be back with my results from Sprint later this evening.

I've been dealing with SOD (Sleep Of Death) problem since official OTA ICS update. On HC everything (except calendar) was fine, but after official ICS update I was having SOD almost every sleep longer then few minutes.

Tried WiFi/sync tricks etc.

What helped ? Well..

1. hardware reset (Vol+ / Pwr / RotateLock)

2. factory reset (from Settings Menu)

3. full update via sd card (Vol- / Pwr)

OFFICIAL ROM: 7.014.16 - 041.213.01 - COM_GEN1 (ICS)

(Acer_A500_7.014.16_041.213.01_COM_GEN1_1336732099520_45282ff4.zip)

and once again:

4. hardware reset (Vol+ / Pwr / RotateLock)

5. factory reset (from Settings Menu)

...I know that hardware & facory reset are pretty much the same, but...It helped...

I have a A501 and want to get rid of this sod problem. so i took the last "Ice Cream Sandwich 4.0.3 (LEAK)" Rom from http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1816560 and tried to install the update.zip file from the sd card. When i get to the recovery it starts but crashes after a few seconds. Do i habe to install a different recovery or unlock my bootloader? I'm a little bit confused...can somebody give me a short hint? Thx. :eek:
[Acer Iconia A500] Moscow Desire:
This is probably because of a couple of reasons.

1. You didn't do the incremental update. The available update files are incremental patch files, which means you have to have the others installed before you install the latest. Or at least part 1 and 2 of the original leak.

2. You didn't decrypt the file and remove the "update.zip". Generally, you can't just rename these update files to "update.zip". So the latest OTA you took, you should decrypt it "if it needs it", open in 7zip or Winzip and pull the update.zip file and copy that to your EXT SD card.

The final Official release build, was build .021. So if you still get SOD on .021, then chances are you have one of the later revision tablets, and may have to wait a long time until Acer releases another update, as the later revisions only account for a very small percentage.

Or, you can install the unlocked bootloader, and try one of the newer kernels we have.

MD
[Acer Iconia A500] captainn:
Thanks for your replay. So what i did was to install all available OTA updates. Then i downloaded the full package Ice Cream Sandwich 4.0.3 (LEAK) from the site above, extracted the update.zip from this archive and put it on the external sd card. i think that is all i have to do. And my current build number is Acer_AV041_A501_1.021.00_EMEA_DE...so don't know exactly if "[LEAK]Acer A501 ICS (COM_GEN1). Build number 041.126.01" is the same version.

And i tried to unlock my bootloader but the next funny thing is that i tried that Afterota-Tool, but it stucks at 3/4 "Flashing recovery...".

I don't want to loose my 3G-Feature and i saw that nearly all roms are only for A500. Which kernel and rom would you recommend for me?

Looking forward for your replay. Thx a lot!
[Acer Iconia A500] Moscow Desire:
You current build is cooked my friend. Unless you want Acer repair.

Most of all OTA ICS Updates are Com Gen 1 now. Not sure what acer had in mind. But I believe it has duetch or danish language.

You have to use a 501 update if you want to use 3g and GPS.

My question, were you successful in booting to your system after installing the updates correctly? That is my primary question. If so, make sure you have USB debugging turned on.

But I need to know exactly what your tablet is in now before going further. Does it boot into the OS after running the updates?

MD
[Acer Iconia A500] captainn:
I don't know exactly which updates you are talking about. I installed all the available ota updates and the tablet booted correctly after this. If you mean any other update via sd-card i can only tell you that i was not able to install one of them. what do you mean with "cooked"? sorry for stupid questions :p

My USB debugging ist turned on, firewall and uac off.

Thx.
[Acer Iconia A500] Moscow Desire:
The only stupid question, is the one that doesn't get asked ;)

What is the current version you are on? (settings/about tablet) The current build should be .021

MD
[Acer Iconia A500] captainn:
Android 4.0.3

Kernel 2.6.39.4+

Image Acer_AV041_A501_RV20RC05_EMEA

Build Acer_AV041_A501_1.021.00_EMEA_DE

P/N FM.S14A0.02A

Is it all you need?
[Acer Iconia A500] Moscow Desire:
Yes, you have build .021 But I am surprised it's not WW_Com_Gen_1

This is the latest Acer build. So stay with it.

Ok, info for you, I am currently working with kernel dev's to maybe get something better as far as kernels, that may help with your SOD if you still have it.

For right now, let us work on things. This may take a few days.

As with Unlocked Bootloader and CWM recovery.

Here is what you should do.

GET YOUR UID NUMBER and write it down.

1. Make sure your Acer drivers are installed.

2. Using After OTA, only install the Patched Bootloader.

3. If you already have the patched bootloader installed (you see Skirlax_CZ bootloader text when you boot),

Did it install the patched bootloader?

MD
[Acer Iconia A500] captainn:
So in Afterota i open the tab advanced and there i can choose "browse for custom bootloader" and i can choose between different binary files. I think "bl_ics_ac_v8.bin" or "bl_ics_pb_v8.bin" should be right. What's the difference, what's the right one?
[Acer Iconia A500] Moscow Desire:
Well, I did things the old fashioned way.

If I am to guess. the first one is CWM recovery included, and the second is Public Recovery included. I never used this tool ;)

I would choose door number 1

BTW, there are other methods to install these things. But let's see what happens. Personally, I don't use these all in 1 tools. Got too many of them in the forums. But, let's see what happens.

If not successful, we'll use My method. And you will learn something in the process.

MD
[Acer Iconia A500] captainn:
*LOL* Tool doesn't work at all...so i will do it by using another method...can you recommend one that really works= :fingers-crossed:
[Acer Iconia A500] Moscow Desire:
Ehhhh,,, we're gonna do it my way now.

Ok, keep in mind, it's late in Moscow, and I have a baby that will need bath (long process) and other family duties.

Let's get your computer prepared the way it should always be when dealing with the dark side of android.

Your tab is running now, and that's good. You have a .021 build. Ok. But let;s see if we can make it better.

First thing, and I hope you have Windows XP or Windows 7.

Download and install the Android SDK.

http://developer.android.com/sdk/index.html

Now, next, is the Oracle Java Platform (JDK)

http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/java/javase/downloads/index.html

After you do these 2 things, well, we can move over to the dark side.

Now, after everything is installed, I want you to do something.

Connect your tab with USB debugging on. (Never turn this off)

Open Windows explorer, go to C:\program file (x86)\Android\Android-sdk\platform tools . Open a command window here (SHIFT & Right mouse click)

Then type adb devices in the CMD window. Should show device connected and some numbers.

This tells me the drivers are installed.

If not, You have to install Acer USB drivers from the website.

Then try again.

And that, is as far as I go tonight, too late.

Tomorrow, I will give you a lesson in NVFlash and fastboot.

Rule number 1. Drivers, Drivers, Drivers. This was just to prepare your system.

To save some time, for tomorrow, shut down your tab.

Using a paper clip, or needle or something. Press and hold the pin hole button near the USB port. Hold it. Then, press and hold PWR button. Wait 4 seconds, release PWR only. 1 second later, release the pin hole.

Tab should be black. PWR button white. You may get vibrate.

This is what we call APX mode.

When you connect your tab to your PC, after a few seconds, the PC should recognize this as (Recovery Mode, APX Mode, or Download Mode)

Will need to know what it says. If it says nothing, but gives you an error in Windows device manager, then Houston, we have a problem. And the problem is the drivers. And you need to fix it. You may have to manually select from a list or tell it where the drivers are.

And that is all for tonight Mate. Baby needs bath.

MD
[Acer Iconia A500] captainn:
Thank you very much. I installed the bootloader, the recovery and the tegraowner ics rom for the A501. It looks great and it seems that SOD is now part of the history :) 3G is also working. Great success :laugh:

Thanks for your help and to all developers!
[Acer Iconia A500] Moscow Desire:
Great! Was waiting to hear!

Not that I demand it, but, it's customary to hit the "thanks" button for those that help ;)

Always remember, you have a "fastboot" bootloader, so if something happens, you can boot to the Fastboot, and do things like install boot.img's (kernels), Custom Recoveries, and some other things. That's why you installed Android SDK. Also, you have ADB capability as well.

Rock On!

MD
[Acer Iconia A500] captainn:
In addition: Now i am using "ICS Evil Alex Unleashed Ver 2". I switched because gps is not working when using tegraowners rom. Now it seems, that all important features are working! Thanks a lot for your rom! :D
[Acer Iconia A500] ctiger:
I have the official A500 ICS, didn't do anything other than the OTA upgrade, and it worked fine until I installed some additional apps, it started to do the SOD. Then I uninstalled the latest apps I added, more likely instagram, and the SOD went away, till now at least. So, if you can't get it to work, maybe a factory reset to clear out all the apps might help, then, add apps slowly to see find out which one actually act bad.
[Acer Iconia A500] rktdi:
Great tutorial!

I have a500 with ota ICS. Rooted. Locked bootloader. And working fine, but I think it could be better..

I am used to flashing rom and kernel on my android phone, but it looks like it is a bit more difficult on this device..

If I want to try another rom, should I follow your tutorial first? Or what do I do?

Oh, and what rom do you recommend? - I need fast, reliable and everything working.. Nothing fancy is required :)
[Acer Iconia A500] Moscow Desire:
Well, if you want reliability, then stock is best. (this way you can always blame Acer ;) ) But you miss out on the tweaks and such.

I can say that Civato's roms are by far the most popular. And he has all/most of the issues long gone.

If you wish for stability, stay with the ICS roms by Civato. The reason is the JB (CM10) roms are still in development, and as such, have minor bugs. Will probably be that way for a few months as they continue to release newer builds. You can read the threads for these and make your own choices.

The unlocked V8 bootloader is a must. Otherwise, you will never get full /system RW re-mount for adb and such. A lot of people overlook the importance of this. Also, the V8 Bootloader gets you fastboot capability. Nice to have when something goes wrong.

For custom Roms, CWM recovery is a must as well. Can't install one without it.

So really, the only difference in difficulty between most phones and the 500, is the bootloader change. Fortunately there are a couple apps that make it easy 90% of the time. In the other 10%, the partitions may be messed up and required them to roll back to HC 3.0 using an Euus rom to reset the partitions. A pain, but relatively easy process.

MD
[Acer Iconia A500] rktdi:
ok, thank you for your answer - I will give it a try in the next few days :) :good:
[Acer Iconia A500] jodokus77:
SOD fix on Re-Flexx

I fully agree with MD: I've been on Civato's ICS ROMs since May and they have been outstanding & stable.

However, recently on re-Flexx Rev 3, I experienced my first SOD ever. Twice I put the tablet down and it never woke. What a Shellshock ! ;)

I had done a thing I never do: use V6 Supercharger

Last night I flashed re-Flexx rev 4.6 and undid all Supercharger settings. Seems that did the trick.
[Acer Iconia A500] junior261:
Try this out. Finally worked for me.

Try flashing a customer kernel as well after you flash a new rom (and making sure you have the correct bootloader as well). I have tried every variety (before trying a new kernel) and I had SoD for several months. Finally I flashed ezterry's kernel separately and I do not have SoD anymore.

Here is ezterry's kernel, http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1703590

Has no French stuff you can't remove, just a UEFA thing and McAfee which you can remove both of. Quite happy with it. Will still use UK one when it comes out though.
