A511 get back factory state

A511 only!!!

Situation:

You have a Acer Iconia Tab A511 with a A510 ICS (Custom-)ROM with CWM on it and can not install the A511 firmware, cause Status 7 or Status 4 errors?

Aspiration:

Get a updateable stock JB-ROM (a511_ww_gen1) with root

Solution:

0. Copy all the .zip files contained in this download A511_ICS_403_Back2Stock.7z (294.1 MB)

to your SD-card. If you want to safe your apps feel free to make a backup (Titanium Backup is included in the new ROM).

Connect the tablet via USB to your PC and be sure that you have installed the acer drivers

Open a Terminal from the folder includes the .img files and the fastboot.exe and boot the tablet in fastboot-mode

In the case your bootloader is not unlocked (if a step of this howto locks the bootloader open it again)

fastboot oem unlock

quick select (**) the unlock icon and confirm (*) (instructions on the display)

1. Install CWM if you do not have the newest version (6.x)

fastboot flash recovery recovery_nothrills.img

2. Flash the system and the flexrom

fastboot flash system system.img

fastboot flash flex flexrom.img

3. Boot into recovery

fastboot reboot

press the power and volume ** button while boot, release the power button after you feel the vibration

4. Install the stock kernel/bootloader/recovery from SD

Navigate in the CWM to install the StockRecovery-incl.bootloader+boot.zip

make a full wipe (System, Dalvik, Cache, System)

reboot the tablet

(if you are asked cause CWM will be removed with reboot you can say no, you flashed the stock one in this step)

--- now you have a international ICS 4.0.3 rooted A511 tablet ---

5. connect to wifi and you 'll find the OTA Update, first a small one and then after it is updated you 'll get the big JB-update. follow the instrucions on your tablet

--- now you have a up to date international unrooted A511 tablet ---

6. Root: Turn on USB-Debugging and enter the fastboot mode use the vol ** button + rotation switch while reboot

fastboot flash recovery recovery_nothrills.img

Boot into recovery

fastboot reboot

!!! Now the combination is an other one !!!

Hold Power and Vol ** after first vibration release the power button after second vibration release the ** button and press *

Install the remove_recovery_from_rom.zip from SD

Install the ROOT-A51x.zip from SD

Install the CWM-SuperSUv0.99.zip from SD

Reboot system

--- now you have a up to date international rooted A511 tablet ---

thanks to NoThrills, Nika and tolikvl and some other guys

Added Acer_AV051_A511_1.014.00_WW_GEN1 to my drop box & shared with your paypal donation email. Please ignore the recovery file as it is CWM.

This is the OTA JB update that I received about a week ago.

I bought my A11 second hand but "it had only been used twice" so should have been as new.

Can you please add to the instructions that you need to enter su in the ADB shell and accept on the tab, to stop the "permission denied error".
[Acer Iconia A700 and A510] mongocliqque:
Is this working 100%? anyone tested? I need to roll back because my a511 cant update (rooted & cwm).

is confirmed that SIM is working ?

regards
[Acer Iconia A700 and A510] Paulinche:
For me this was a working way to solve the problems but you can flash the original firmware in once, too.

To prevent the status 7 error you have to remove the device information inside the flashable zip using a linux like editor and eg 7zip (notepad and winrar are NOT working)

my way is the same but it is a manual step by step "bypass", cause the status 4/7/8 errors.

the A511 is the 3G version and, yes, the modem is working fine. i know only one bug in the stock JB rom, the display may flicker sometimes.
[Acer Iconia A700 and A510] mongocliqque:
This should be stickied.

Works perferct.

This should be stickied.

On a mac u just need fastboot and adb + the file package, not even a driver.

rly easy

When i try to get root on 4.1.2, installing remover_recovery_....., i get the message

Any ideas?
[Acer Iconia A700 and A510] Paulinche:
maybe your bootloader is locked again after the update? Then you can reopen it.

here is a step by step tutorial for root on the A511, I had no problems by using the files contained in the 7zip.
[Acer Iconia A700 and A510] mongocliqque:
works, it had not flashed the cwm correctly and i tried to root from the normal recovery.

strange, but after repeat every step again, its perfect now
[Acer Iconia A700 and A510] tolikvl:
CWM-6.0.1.9_No​Thrills511

Fixed one line:

default.prop in ramdisk CWM for 510

ro.product.name=a510_ww_gen1

default.prop in ramdisk CWM for 511

ro.product.name=a511_ww_gen1

To return to Acer_AV041_A511_1.011.00_WW_GEN1 , install CWM 511, in CWM make a wipe data, after install in the menu CWM 1.011.00_WW_GEN1.zip external_sd..

After installation select reboot system now. Pop up menu, c handful of NO, one a YES, select the bottom GO BACK. The tablet will reboot, enter the system and then reboot and install Acer_AV041_A511_1.011.00_WW_GEN1.zip, renamed in the update, with the sd_card through the stock recovery ICS. After you install the update over the OTA to 1.032, after up to JB ..

Is there any way this can this be adapted for the A510?
[Acer Iconia A700 and A510] gen_scheisskopf:
Whatfor?

I'm not sure how system will deal with missing 3G hardware.

If you want to use a 3G stick just install ppp widget on a rooted tab, works perfectly
[Acer Iconia A700 and A510] Hyperfish:
Back to stock

I was referring to Paulinche - post #73 and his method to get the A511 back to stock.

Can this method not be used for getting the A510 back to stock condition?

I'm not asking about 3G.
[Acer Iconia A700 and A510] Paulinche:
IMO the image for the A510 are hosted by acer and you can use an easier way to go back to stock by flashing this single file.

If you find all the .img for your device you can flash it with fastboot, too. (most of them are inside the .zip hosted by acer and you can extract them)

You need the boot.img, recovery.img (you may find stock recovery and bootloader in this forum), system.img, flexrom.img (this is the bloatware) for the A510 in my pack all this files are for the A511 only - but the fastboot commands are the same.

Hi,

This is just the last JB Rom version you got via OTA 1 year ago, but this is the full update.zip for a complete reinstall if needed.

With this, no more need to flash ICS and then make the OTA, we can flash directly the last Stock JB ROM ;)

I think you have to use a stock recovery

Only bootloader - otherwise no reaction

hello

so have now cm-11-20140210-UNOFFICIAL-a510-A511 get on the Tablet, Tablet boots also to input the sim pin, only the touchpad stops responding to input.

Flashing can also only to CWM recovery-cwm-6.0.4.7-shreps-a510,

the CWM 6.0.4.9 and 6.0.5.0-a510-lvm does not work, after a successful flash in fastboot, the tablet will boot into cwm (Android males with red triangle)

Then I noticed the tablet in landscape mode by pressing a key combination: Power + Vol-Down (This is the side of the vol-tilt switch with the Gnubbel) keep the same time until the first vibration. Vol-Down hold but can go up to the second power vibrate. Let vol go down, press Vol-Up immediately and hold until the 3rd vibration

no longer works, does work only Power + Vol-Down into cwm then he boats.

Time from the beginning, the tablet was bought second-hand for daughter, there was already a nothrills image on it, but no backup of the original.

I then after I've read up a backup made ​​of the nothrills rom, then 6.0.5.0-a510-lvm with omni-4.4.4-20140924-a510-NIGHTLY-LVM installed and a backup made ​​by Rome, and the with all key combination: vibrate Power + Vol-down, to 2, etc. tablet went great!

That's what the daughter did not like it all and wanted to Original Rome on the tablet.

Then the trouble started, then I have this manual [A510 / A511] [WIP] Stock ROM dumps - Get Back & hellip; . - Pg 8 | Acer Iconia A700 and A510 | XDA Forum Post 73 and from there went nothing more.

What I've done is yes then read in the other post.

Now my question,

can I install a backup with sideload, or how should I proceed.

What about the touchpad, it is defective (yesterday was the washing machine broke today) or has to do with the Installed Rome?

For any help, I am grateful!

Sorry for my English (Google Translate)

Thanks! I'm having a little problem with stock recovery. I have to downgrade from cwm 6.0.4.9 to stock recovery 1.044.00. Whenever I flash the stock recovery there's an acer logo flashing and then the android little man goes on its back with the red ! mark.

I put the recovery.img in the same folder as adb, then I proceeded with all the commands - they went all ok. On the external sd there's the ww_ge1 firmware in update.zip and theres another remove_recovery_from.zip (or sth like that - like the instructions http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1866378 say).

After the ! android man i reboot to cm12 without problems. Where's my error? I really need stock rom back on the tablet....

Thanks a lot for all your work and help!

Edit: NoThrills cwm based recovery 6.0.1.9 flashes ok, but the ww_gen1 rom still won't install from external sd

Do you hung on step 5 with you 511 (with 2G/3G)?

My post is four yours old (I do not have this device anymore) and there are much better ways to set the tab back to stock. I postet this guide cause I flashed a 510 Custom ROM and it was hard to collect all the stock images for the 511.

But in my opinion there is no reason why you can not update. Maybe you can flash it again, make a full reset or push the reset button.

Maybe you 'll try a custom ROM, there are ROMs up to Android 5.1 or do you want the stock ROM, then try an other way (you will find it in this thread) to flash it again.

Maybe the OTA update is no more hosted by acer... there are so many possibilities but I can not test it, sorry.
