Thanks so much for that, had the 'boot image...' issue but fixed now.

Fast and stable ROM for now, flashed the US A700 with it, seems to be working fine
[Acer Iconia A700 and A510] Vorbeth:
I've just moved home and am awaiting internet before I can work on this more.

As for boot loader, the op and aroma do tell you you need an unlocked bootloader to use this :)

I'm looking at the next version to require having an official jelly bean ROM to start, so to save flashing the boot loader.

Another few options I am adding are the ability to remove all the Acer ui custom bit's.

Drop everything back to stock aosp.
[Acer Iconia A700 and A510] laloutre:
I read it but I'm absolutely sure it was unlocked at the beginning (I did it à long ago)

The point is I've also upgraded Cwm to the JB version. Perhaps this relocked the bootloader...
[Acer Iconia A700 and A510] waileungbilly:
thx for your effort. keep going. and, i would like to report some issue:

- can't use the google voice typing. Crash when i use
[Acer Iconia A700 and A510] Vorbeth:
Well I hope to get my internet back on tomorrow.

I've been working on the ROM a little over the weekend, trying to decide in what direction to take it.

I can either work in tweaking it a little and remove only regional locks and some of the bloat ware or (my preferred option) would be to stop out as much Acer bloat as possible.

I'm also wanting to know what sort of things you guys would like? APM etc,
[Acer Iconia A700 and A510] laloutre:
Hi

I vote for removal of Acer stuff and bloat in order tout be the most close to aosp as possible. But mate it's your rom, your choice at the end !

Anyway Thanks for your work and good luck for your internet access
[Acer Iconia A700 and A510] ExtremeRyno:
I've already gotten rid of all my bloat after rooting with your kernel. It was the first thing I did after gaining root. If you could figure out a way to get rid of Acer Ring and the little soft button in the center of the notification bar, that would be awesome.
[Acer Iconia A700 and A510] bucklyv:
That is a simple launcher issue... just run holo launcher, nova launcher, or a similar launcher.

:)
[Acer Iconia A700 and A510] bucklyv:
Vorbeth,

Quick question, do you think you could do a standalone "wipe-data.zip" that utilized the recursive deletes that you use in your install script and the wipe-data.sh in your tweaks?

It looks to me like CWM Recovery 6.0.1.5 will not, no matter what you do or how many times you do it, actually wipe data. I know this is a safeguard that has been implemented to avoid bricking our tablets... which is good. But, for those of us who are prone to flash new ROMs every few days (or hours really), having a way to wipe data is a must.

Let me know what you think... PM me if you have something you want tested. :)

Thanks,

bucklyv
[Acer Iconia A700 and A510] Vorbeth:
You can also turn it off in Settings > Ring

I will have a look and see if I can squeeze in some time to make one.
[Acer Iconia A700 and A510] Moscow Desire:
Remove Acer Ring.apk from /system/app. Additionally, there's a build.prop edit that can be done, and also a customization list as well, that effects things such as Ring and AcerPrint.

Also, you can turn it off (the AcerRing) in Settings which is much easier ;)

MD
[Acer Iconia A700 and A510] ExtremeRyno:
I use Nova, but the little blip in the center is there no matter the launcher.

Yeah, I've got it disabled already, but I hate the little blue blip in the middle. That's always there.
[Acer Iconia A700 and A510] nex86:
important question: is there a possibility to get exfat support here? or can I add it somehow?

NTFS works though but it's not that fast when it comes to writing much files and it stresses the SD more than exfat does.
[Acer Iconia A700 and A510] Vorbeth:
That requires a source built kernel.

i'm working on one, slowly.
[Acer Iconia A700 and A510] Vorbeth:
Can I ask A700 to provide me with some info please?

While running stock Jelly Bean, I need you to look in your /system/build.prop and provide the following info from that:

ro.build.sku=
ro.product.name=
ro.build.description=
ro.build.fingerprint=

ie for UK it is:

ro.build.sku=EMEA_GB
ro.product.name=a700_emea_gb
ro.build.description=a700_emea_gb-user 4.1.1 JRO03H 1349187599 release-keys
ro.build.fingerprint=acer/a700_emea_gb/picasso_mf:4.1.1/JRO03H/1349187599:user/release-keys

The more I can get the more I can add to the installer to allow you to pick your correct region for install

Dont suppose you can do a system dump of that for me?
[Acer Iconia A700 and A510] meier2009:
I think I've got one from the blanc install before customize it personal.

I can give you the image.zip created by cwm 6015 or the nandroid backup included the app partition if it will help you.

[Acer Iconia A700 and A510] escalator:
...have this issue too :(

I hold the two dots button until "boot Image verified Fail" appeared....then I toggled like 100 times the rotatition switch....nothing happend. Should I see anything? I´m also unable to unlock bootloader.....>waiting for device<

....but I´m also sure, my bootloader was unlocked...

Hope anybode can help me....now my a700 is dead...also no recovery :crying:
[Acer Iconia A700 and A510] Vorbeth:
You need to make sure your computer is using the right drivers to allow it to see the A700 in bootloader.

Also to get into boot loader you need to power on holding vol+ and only one it vibrates toggle the screen rotation switch.

Your tablet is not dead, just stuck with a locked bootloader.

One thing I am finding is odd is that I can keep flashing boot loader and it never re-locks.
[Acer Iconia A700 and A510] escalator:
....It worked this way....THX.

Feel like I have a new tablet now...so responsive ;)
[Acer Iconia A700 and A510] laloutre:
Hi

thanks for this new version. Update ran well (without bootloader relocked this time)
[Acer Iconia A700 and A510] Vorbeth:
I think that I can safely say that this can now be flashed to all A700's as this morning I flash the emea-de full update ROM to my UK device without any issues at all.
[Acer Iconia A700 and A510] meier2009:
i think also that it work´s because i tested your rom an my german Tab without any issues.

but there are differences between the two ROM´s so in aroma it should be possible, depending on the selection, to install the different files for the different language.
[Acer Iconia A700 and A510] Vorbeth:
So far the only difference is the build.prop, the GB & DE plus other languages are in the apps already.
[Acer Iconia A700 and A510] meier2009:
ah, okay, i´m looking just in time also for differences ;)

will you provide an install.zip with the removed apps ? some people like a "fullfull" rom, so they can flash it afterwards or pickup single app´s an install it by hand! ;)

i collect the removed apps an moved to an extra folder but i will first have to learn how to deodex them then i will be able to create an install.zip :D

did you change anything on the framework.res or the systemui.apk ?

the size differs a lot, is this because of deodexing or moding?
[Acer Iconia A700 and A510] Vorbeth:
The size difference is due to ripping out all of the extra acer stuff

I will slowly be adding the other files back, giving you the option to have them installed or not.

The only changes I made to SystemUI are for the dock icons

There is still a lot of work to be done yet.

I was uploading 1.2, its was very slow and kept failing so then thought I can fix more things first, like cwm.

I'm testing my own mod of it and so far everything is working OK

I still need to test partition wipes and nandroid restore (backup worked great)

I've only got a very slow internet connection so its going to take a while to sync the cm10 repo so that I can compile it from source.

I'll get things done as soon as I can.
[Acer Iconia A700 and A510] meier2009:
if you need any help, tell me, i will try as good as i can
[Acer Iconia A700 and A510] ExtremeRyno:
I love you, man. I had gone to CM10 and had lots of strange issues, so I installed your ROM tonight and everything is working peachy-freaking-fantastic. I'm not giving up on CM10, of course, but I have to say I am enjoying having a fully functional tablet again thanks to you. Donating!

EDIT: Donation on the way. Looking forward to the next update.
[Acer Iconia A700 and A510] Vorbeth:
Thank you very much ExtremeRyno

I am working hard to sort the last few issues out.

More cwm issues than ROM issues.
[Acer Iconia A700 and A510] ExtremeRyno:
Is there any way to activate USB Mass Storage by default rather than MTP?

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1800935

I've tried the method above in CM10 and in yours, but the result is..well..nothing happens.
[Acer Iconia A700 and A510] Vorbeth:
I'll have a look at this when I can get laptop time.

It will require the boot.img editing as there is no init code to allow mass_storage to work.
[Acer Iconia A700 and A510] nex86:

So far so good for 1.2

All is good, thanks.

Would it be a hard work to include a Bluetooth toggle in the status bar for a future release? If not there's no big deal...

Thanks again for your time and work on this ROM

Don´t want to put 4Way Mod inside? ;)

i install now the second time, first with wipe AND German Buildprop, Nothing was written inside it

now without wipe and Germen Prop, also nothing inside

I installed it but it gets stuck in bootloader after reboot.

I wiped userdata, cache and dalvik cache but that does not help.
[Acer Iconia A700 and A510] Vorbeth:
The unknown parts are due to a permission error, I'll fix it next build, already fixed it here

The values are only taken from a text file anyhow
[Acer Iconia A700 and A510] nex86:
any idea to fix the stuck in bootloader issue?

I reinstalled it a couple of times with different options chosen in Aroma but it still gets stuck when I try to reboot.

we can provide an hotfix with the correct build prop for the users!

---------- Post added at 11:36 PM ---------- Previous post was at 11:35 PM ----------

i told you, install jb image from post 1
[Acer Iconia A700 and A510] nex86:
okay the problem was because my system partition got erased.

I reflashed my backup and then I installed IconiaN. that worked !
[Acer Iconia A700 and A510] Vorbeth:
Those values are not in the build.prop ;)

As for your system partition being erased, iconiaN does that during install by default.
[Acer Iconia A700 and A510] Vorbeth:
I've noticed a small bug on 1.3, the 4Way reboot fails to install :confused:

I'm currently working on iconiaN 2.0, where it will be fixed.

I've jumped to 2.0 now as the ROM has been given quite a lot of tweaks.
[Acer Iconia A700 and A510] nex86:
I really appreciate your work. finally a Stock ROM without all the bloatware from acer.

I'm not demanding something but it would be nice if it would be possible to integrate exFat support into the Kernel.

Right now there is only NTFS to support large files like 720/1080p movies.

But the problem is, NTFS has an intensive and complex write algorythm due to the USN journaling system. This stresses the SD card a lot when writing files.

FAT filesystems like FAT32 or exFAT are more recommended for flash memories and it's also faster.
[Acer Iconia A700 and A510] Vorbeth:
Acer did not include exfat code in the kernel source.

This is due to Microsoft licencing it out and not making it open source.

Is it supported in the stock kernel?

If so I maybe able to get it working.
[Acer Iconia A700 and A510] nex86:
I don't think so but I may have to try it on my Nexus 7.

All I know is that Asus integrated it into their Kernel and also Samsung did it.

edit: Stickmount seems not be able to mount it.

It creates the folders and you can copy files into it but they do not seem to get copied onto the USB device.

there are also custom Kernels for the S3 like the Siyah Kernel that support exFat. but I've seen none for the A700.
[Acer Iconia A700 and A510] Vorbeth:
I know Samsung pay Microsoft for the use of exfat.

If Acer never included it in either A700 or A701 kernels then it will be very hard if impossible to add it.
[Acer Iconia A700 and A510] nex86:
hm didn't Paragon software made an exfat driver for android?
[Acer Iconia A700 and A510] ExtremeRyno:
I was unable to use my 64GB card formatted as exFAT on the A700, stock. I had to format to FAT32 for it to work.
[Acer Iconia A700 and A510] Webitu:
Do I have the / data partitions get formatted after flashing the ROM?

Webitu
[Acer Iconia A700 and A510] ExtremeRyno:
I wiped before flashing the ROM...Seemed to work okay for me.
[Acer Iconia A700 and A510] Vorbeth:
No. You can install directly over any other jellybean ROM.

The installer gives yo the option.
[Acer Iconia A700 and A510] nex86:
you can format it as NTFS if you want copy files larger than 4GB on it. but it's slower than a FAT filesystem due to the journaling.
[Acer Iconia A700 and A510] Webitu:
Hm i have an Error while flashing the ROM.

"check.partiton.size=[__PROP_UNDEFINED__]" or so. What is that?

I have a German A700 with this Recovery: recovery-a700-6015.img

I just installed the Touch recovery but it is the same as the normal recovery?!

There is no touch...

Webitu
[Acer Iconia A700 and A510] Vorbeth:
Your trying to flash the stock Acer ROM, iconiaN does not perform that check.

You can only flash the stock ROM using the stock recovery unless you change the install script and remove the data size check.
[Acer Iconia A700 and A510] Webitu:
No im realy flash the IconiaN ROM. What can i do?

Webitu
[Acer Iconia A700 and A510] Vorbeth:
check.partiton.size=[__PROP_UNDEFINED__]

is not part of iconiaN's installer script. is IS in the stock rom though.
[Acer Iconia A700 and A510] misteral1970:
Hi Vorbeth,

I took the leap and flashed this ROM to my A710. I'd already had a few different A700 ROMs on there, the last one being CM10, which was great.

CM10 got to a point where I needed a Jelly Bean firmware, and that lead me to look at iconiaN

It flashed easily, the only tiny issue being that I need to unlock the bootloader before it would let me boot up - but that's a very easy thing to do.

Now the tablet is performing amazingly well, very fast and smooth and heat is much less of an issue than it used to be.

Obviously there are no options for SIM card use, but I was not using one in the first place, so this is not a loss for me.

With the greatest respect to the CM team, I'll probably keep the a710 on iconiaN for a while now, it works exactly as I always wanted it to (except for Chrome, which won't run at all. Replaced with Dolphin, no biggie)

Thank you for this excellent ROM, flashed safely to my 710 :o)
[Acer Iconia A700 and A510] nex86:
then you didn't flash it.

flash it using "fastboot flash recovery recoveryfilename.img"

or boot it temporary with "fastboot boot recoveryfilename.img"

also you only get the error

"check.partiton.size=[__PROP_UNDEFINED__]"

with the stock recovery, so therefore you didn't had CWM.
[Acer Iconia A700 and A510] cdrov:
Just a question to those who are using this ROM. I really don't have any problems with stock ROM except to the responsiveness of the touch screen.

So is this ROM any better on this factor or NOT.

Can someone do a test for me. Install Opera mobile and then i would like to know how easy can the "O" menu on the top left corner be "touched"...

Thank you
[Acer Iconia A700 and A510] Vorbeth:
Tonight's update will include the new RV18 firmware as well as some touch screen tweaks that should help with that a lot.

Personally I've never suffered from that issue.

oh, what RV18 ?
[Acer Iconia A700 and A510] nex86:
I think should be the same as we have with RV16RC01 but i'm not quite sure.

The french version already got RV18 and it's the same 3.5MB update as RV16RC01.
[Acer Iconia A700 and A510] Vorbeth:
No, this based of the full RV18 ROM, not an OTA.

do you know if there is a changelog? Acer never puts them there.
[Acer Iconia A700 and A510] Webitu:
Hm you are right, i have flashed the CWM but it is not installed?! The normal Stock recovery was booting.

So i try the "fastboot boot recovery.img" this works!

Thanks a lot!

Webitu
[Acer Iconia A700 and A510] Vorbeth:
Nope, no changelog at all.
[Acer Iconia A700 and A510] nex86:
I'm still having issues with the touchscreen responsibility, especially in the corners, like the menu button in the play store.

I'm running the german RV16RC01 version but I compared the md5sum of the touchFW files (1386e-config.txt, atmel-ap, fw-1386e-22F4) with those in the RV18RC01 GB Image.

They're the same. So I doubt that RV18RC01 will fix that issue.

but can somebody test how the touchscreen responses to the menu button in the right upper corner in the play store?
[Acer Iconia A700 and A510] meier2009:

[Acer Iconia A700 and A510] escalator:
Is the bootloader in 2.0 the same like in 1.x? Or do I need to flash it, if I´m already use 1.3?

You should be fine if your already on jellybean.

There are slight differences in the blob but I've not noticed any difference.
[Acer Iconia A700 and A510] Chris0706:
I have a few suggestions for further modding, i would like to have:

- Percentage&Circle of battery like in the Theme forum

- Bluetooth switch in the notification bar

- JB Lockscreen with maybe weather but especially next event in calendar

- WLAN&GPS switch in notification bar

- Lockscreen Apps

So far everything works quite perfect, encrypted the whole tablet without issues and touchscreen sensitivity is better than the stock version..
[Acer Iconia A700 and A510] Vorbeth:
Lock screen mods like those require aokp, cyanogenmod or waiting for Acer to push out android 4.2

As for the notification toggles you can use a free app https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.painless.pc

[Acer Iconia A700 and A510] Chris0706:

I was coming from stock ICS, but already fully rooted and the bootloader was unlocked.

But I was stuck with the not unlocked bootloader problem, too. Thanks to this thread I've managed to get my Tab running. (unlocked bootloader in fastboot)

Also, I've got a problem with installing the fastboot driver on my Win Vista system, once I managed to get in fastboot mode, but I've got it going. (Had to install the driver manually, since it won't install any other way - like the 'normal' USB driver, Acer setup says it's only for XP and Win7)

Now I have this great ROM running on my A700. Thank you very much for this!

My S3 tapatalked this...
[Acer Iconia A700 and A510] ExtremeRyno:
Any chance you could post a step-by-step on that? Weird as it sounds,there will be other people doing the exact same thing who will have no idea.
[Acer Iconia A700 and A510] meier2009:
got some similar issues

start setup.exe of drivers, look inside the install folder if all drivers are extract and copy them to an seperate folder to save them.

if you need to install the driver manually got to hardware manager, install driver, manuall, other device and then choose the folder you saved the drivers.

so i was able to use adb and/or fastboot commands also in cwm and so on.

that´s necessary becaus windumb is too dumb for this
