Any idea, anyone?

Thanks for the tip.

I would prefer prefer to not install cwm beta and all that stuff just to fix my GPS...

If you have this tool installed on your acer, could you maybe send an german GPS config?

gps.conf

I had GPS issues (no fix) and found out that there was no gps.conf in the /systems/etc/ directory on my device. (Acer Stock ROM rooted)

I manually copied a gps.conf file on my device and gps is working fine now.

However this ist still confusing to me. Why the hell was this file missing?

Does the file exist on your devices or is gps handled diferent on the Acer than on other android devices?
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] sxjg23:
Two questions regarding the call recording mentioned at the beginning of this thread (I'm considering buying this phone):

1. Is it a built-in feature included in the original stock ROM from Acer? (if that's the case, it's a feature not offered by any other manufacturer)

2. Does it record the call using 2-way call recording or just by using the microphone?

3. Can it be set up to automatically record every call or do I have to press the menu button manually everytime I make a call?

Thx
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] jaapstreepjan:
Somehow, the gps configuration is not present in the stock rom.

will add the European gps.conf in my next build.

[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] BenG7:
Hi

Thanks a lot for the rom, I'm gonna try it tonight.

But could you please expand on Note2?

what can we do with

- V6 supercharger

- the KickassKernelizer

- Services.jar is already patched, so you just need to configure it like you want to

Thanks a lot.

[edit] my CWM from a previous root does not include a 'install zip from sd card' option;

does the one provided here do? otherwise how do you install this image?

Thanks

[edit] for the sake of the others THIS CWM includes a 'install zip from sd card' option with which I could install the rom

Hey, this is the most relevant topic I could find to ask this question, so if you don't mind, I'll ask it here. I have the opportunity to get the Acer Liquid Gallant for free with a bundle at my provider, so I wondered: is the screen glass or plastic? This phone looks great, but an answer to that question will make or break my decision. Thanks in advance!

Ext SD card use

Hi all,

Sorry but there doesnt appear to be thread for this elsewhere so I have to ask here...:o

I am seriously considering this phone but I just need to check if anyone has been able to install apps on the

external SD card as opposed to the phone's sd memory. Reason I ask is because I need to install Navigon which needs at least 2Gb memory, I

know that this phone has less than 1Gb USB/SD memory available for apps.

Thanks for any replies.

:)
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] jaapstreepjan:
Yes there is a way to do this.

1. It comes with the stock Acer ROM.

2. It records using 2-way call recording, not requiring the loud speaker.

3. You have to press the button manually as far as I know (I do not see any setting for automatic recording).

My E350 is stuck!

Dear Jan-Jaap,

Thanks for this great article.

I have tried to follow the steps but I think I must have done something wrong. At this moment I cannot use my Acer Liquid Gallant E350 any more. So any help would be much appreciated.

Whenever I boot my device, I get to see the Acer start screen and that's where it stays. Nothing happens.

When I boot my device with the volume button pressed, I get to see the menu of CWM based recovery v6.0.1.5.

Immediately it gives errors:

E:Can't mount /cache/recovery/command

E:Can't mount /cache/recovery/log

E:Can't open /cache/recovery/log

E:Can't mount /cache/recovery/last_log

E:Can't open /cache/recovery/last_log

If I try to wipe the cache partition I get:

--Wiping cache...

Formatting /cache...

E:format_volume: make_extf4fs failed on /dev/block/mmcblk0p2

Cache wipe complete.

E:Can't mount /cache/recovery/log

E:Can't open /cache/recovery/log

E:Can't mount /cache/recovery/last_log

E:Can't open /cache/recovery/last_log

I have downloaded the custom rom that you posted, but I don't understand how to load it.

If I open the smart phone flash tool, I understand that I have to select the scatter-loading text file.

But I don't know where to find all the files I need to load, like the preloader, mbr, uboot, etc.

I have also used adb and I have been able to browse the file system.

Basically I want my phone to boot again and I have no clue what I need to do.

Can you (or someone else) please help?

Many thanks!

Will this ROM work on a NON duo gallant?

Hi all.

Thanks for the tutorial.

I must say i had some trouble rootng. The driver in the discription did not work for me on my Liquid Gallant. Found another ne that did work though. Now my quetion is this, will this ROM work for me? Since it is based on de Liquid Gallant DOU and my phone is not the duo one.

I am kinda scared it will brick jam or do whatever not funny stuff to my phone. So if any of you tried this on the NON duo gallant can you please let me know if this will work?

Flashing problems

This is my first try of rooting a phone and something went wrong, I followed every step and my phone is now rooted and has CWM recovery installed. But then the guide is not so clear for someone who wants to flash a rom for the first time.

I booted up in recovery mode but forgot to put the rom .zip file on my sd card, so I did ''reboot this device'' and it asked something like ''this rom will maybe flash the stock rom, do you want to continue?'' with a bunch of no's and one yes option, and a ''go back'' option. I chose the go back option because I thought that maybe I chose a wrong option, then my device suddenly rebooted.

I connected my phone to my laptop and put the rom on my sd card.

Then disconnected and rebooted my phone in recovery mode again, then I chose the option ''flash rom from external sd'' and selected the rom.

It gave me the error: "signature verification failed''

Then I cleared my user data from my phone and tried again but I still get the same error.

Does anyone know what's going on?

I'm a bit scared that I did something wrong...

Help would be much appriciated :)

PS: I tested if my phone was rooted in the android terminal emulator, by typing SU and granting the SuperUser prompt and it gave me the pound sign.
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] topaza:
Which ROM did you try to flash? The one thats linked in this thread?

Yes, I used the superstock rom from this thread.

One thing I forgot to say is that I have the single sim version, but someone said it doesn't matter.

My CWM uninstalled itself automaticly? And because I'm new to this stuff I didn't notice...

Redid the flashtool.exe bit, and installed the rom and it is working perfectly :)

hi to all,

I just wanted to say that i have updated my gallant duo to a new version of android (always ICS): the "Acer_AV40I_E350_1.000.23_EMEA.FR"

I think that the this rom should be updated because it is stopped to "Acer_E350_1.000.18 EMEA.FR_A40", i'm not able but if someone could it will be great.

P.S.

I'm not a expert android user, but if I install this rom and then i update the phone normally, will it work without losing any setting or root privileges for example?
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] topaza:
your phone will lose root privileges when you upgrade to the new version but you can root it again using the binary method linked in the first post

i tried to install this rom and then to update but it gaves me an error so i downloaded the original rom from acer and restored by flash tool (i unzipped the rom and then selected every file in flash tool; then i followed the guide like for custom rom and it worked); now i have reupdated my phone but i just have CWM recovery installed...

P.S.

little question: in your opinion is better CWM Recovery or TWRP Recovery?
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] lordfreyr:
I cannot install cwm recovery. If I pull out the battery from my phone, it keeps vibrating with pauses, it's reconnecting to the PC again and again. Windows XP 32 bit, 7 32 bit and 8 64 bit, the same problem. Not in Linux, but still not found a Linux flash tool.
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] Abelsama:
I have exactly the same problem in windows 7 64.

Can I skip the driver step safely?
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] lordfreyr:
I've found a way to do it.

It worked for me, of course

You need the ADB (the package by Bin4ry for root is enough) and a root file explorer. Copy the CWM recovery to the phone's /data/local folder and rename it to recovery.img (optional). I couldn't copy it with ADB Shell, that's way I needed a root file explorer.

Then start the ADB server, dd the recovery.img to /dev/recovery (as written below), kill the ADB server, restart the phone and it's done.

In Linux:

./adb start-server
./adb shell "su -c 'dd if=/data/local/recovery.img of=/dev/recovery bs=6291456c count=1'"
./adb kill-server

Bootloader / Flash

Hi,

I would like to flash Factory ROM to my old Acer E350.

The Acer Flashing Tool does not recognize the phone. I guess the phones has to be in fastboot mode for flashing process? (not really documented by acer)

When I trie to access the bootload by DOWN+POWER and then UP+POWER the phone boot directly into recovery mode instead of bootloader. (A youtube video showed a menu bevor recovery mode starts where fastboot is an option, but i do not get this menu)

"adb reboot bootloader" just reboots to system image

"adb reboot fastboot" just reboots to system image

"adb reboot recovery" boots to recovery mode

Does anyone have an idea how to access the bootloader, fastboot mode or just make the acer flashing tool flash the phone?
