I don't think the su binary in /system/bin is causing such problems... as youtube even doesn't call it.

only if there is an app running in background root / or no root, that is taking too much CPU.

This is really odd... I mean, why should there be a custom version of the firmware? which purpose should it have?

[MENTION=3392632]entonjackson[/MENTION]

Do you need some information about my unrooted B1-710? If yes then I will collect them for you.
[Miscellaneous Android Development] entonjackson:
Thanks, you could give me the content of /etc/vold.fstab.
[Miscellaneous Android Development] :
I don't know...only thing I can think of though. Didn't see anything extra in the ROM I had before flashing this one. I got my tablet, booted it up it said there was an 8MB update for the touchscreen so I did it, went fine. Was using it for a couple hours decided to root, took the system image for the RC08 on here, went through the process. Rebooted and then I started having problems. Now like I said, it boots up let's me unlock the screen and I can do anything I want for about 25/30 seconds, then it freezes and then restarts only to do it again. I've tried countless formats, I've put it into demo mode..everything. Is there anything I can do in fastboot that might help you think?
[Miscellaneous Android Development] entonjackson:
have you already tried to apply the update.zip?
[Miscellaneous Android Development] :
When I put it on my SDcard and go into recovery, it finds no file. Just says choose a file from /SDcard then it says ...:/ meaning nothing is found. Anyway I could push it via fastboot?
[Miscellaneous Android Development] sodaFR:
Just an info... The A1-810 is 1024x768 (4/3) screen

Why are you trying to play HD video on that kind of screen ? HD is 1280 or 1920 then playing HD on a 1024 means convert on the fly

If your video is MP4

IT IS VERY GREEDY

ON CPU RESSOURCES.

You should better convert these video or buy a HD device.
[Miscellaneous Android Development] halojack:
me unable to find the file update.zip ver :rv04rc04

please give me a link down!
[Miscellaneous Android Development] :
Hey SodaFR, you have any Update.zip for me to try? Or do you have any idea why the one listed doesn't currently work for me?
[Miscellaneous Android Development] sodaFR:
No info yet nor update file.

I am very disapointed about that CUST1 extension. The only valid info I read about this is it is probably a "before release" version OR as mentionned above a very specific firmware

Did you try a factory reset (in recovery).? I do not have much hope but who knows ? maybe a corrupted dalvik cache :-/

If you have one, unplug the external sdcard too... just to test
[Miscellaneous Android Development] :
Yeah, it sucks. I tried a factory reset, a bunch of them actually. When I do that it restarts about 20 times once it gets to the Acer logo. After that, it says something to the affect of "Optimizing app 16 of 59" Freezes, then reboots. Then it optimizes app 14 of 45 then restarts and continues on until it's done. Then comes the setup, I can get through a few prompts then it freezes and reboots. After a few times it usually stays on long enough for me to finish setup and get to the desktop. Nothing much else can be done, I did manage to enable USB Debugging after a few restarts but that doesn't help much as the debugging only works until it freezes. Basically that's it in a nutshell. I did post a Logcat a few pages back, did you take a look at that? Even if you can't fix the issue maybe it will tell you what causes the freeze?
[Miscellaneous Android Development] Ponder Stibbons:
Ok. When I come home after work I will do that.
[Miscellaneous Android Development] sodaFR:
Looks like operation system (kernel and modules) doesnt like the libraries and info stored in the "new" system partition. I'm not very optimistic

Without a full firmware we cannot do something usefull, I'm afraid of that.

Can you try something, maybe

Put your tablet on, plug it to your computer

A lil before the desktop appears, type these commands :

adb shell su -c stop

It should stop interactive services on your device... wait a few secondes and try

adb shell
su -

It reboot again ? freeze ? If yes then there is nothing I can do unfortunatly

If it doesnt crash you can put su binary away and sent your tablet back to the manufacturerrm

cd /
mount -o rw,remount /system /system/
cd /system
rm bin/su bin/.ext/.su xbin/su app/SuperSu.apk

exit
exit

Edit: I cannot have a look to the logcat now... but I will at lunch time.

When did you apply the system (via toolkit 0.7.0 ?)
[Miscellaneous Android Development] shantusingh:
I'm talking about b1-a71, I can of course talk about it here as well and lol m talking about "Youtube app Hd videos" . Nevermind hd on youtube is super fine now, as I synced my e-mail accounts to e-mail default app and removed ymail app, outlook(Hotmail) cause they were taking heavy mb load and facebook messenger as I don't use it, just lowered minimum cpu speed to 500 MHz in rom toolbox and max to already full and viola super smooth hd on youtube even on 15% battery left!! Got it figured, thanks entonjackson for giving me idea to remove some app which mite be taking load n yes as I removed, it worked!
[Miscellaneous Android Development] sodaFR:
@entonjackson

What do you think about generating system image for everyone ?

It is a not too long process and it may save people with exotic firmware ?

You can save it in /storage/sdcard0 then they can save it on their own computer.via icon on the desktop.

Great :)

Sorry I did not noticed that was Youtube... Reading too fast. Sorry again :)
[Miscellaneous Android Development] :
When my device is detected I type the adb shell su -c stop my screen on tablet goes black but you can tell it's still on and before I can type the other command it resets itself. And yes, I applied it from the Tookit 0.7.0 something I just noticed in my apps, I have an app called Simeji which is a Japanese keyboard. Never had that on my first rom..
[Miscellaneous Android Development] sodaFR:
That app is installed by default in the _WW_GEN1
[Miscellaneous Android Development] :
That's what I figured. So there is differences between the two ROM's.. I wonder what else besides that app?
[Miscellaneous Android Development] sodaFR:
Hard to say

I am looking at your logs and I see that :

Executing exec /system/bin/am broadcast -a com.noshufou.android.su.RESULT --es socket '' --ei caller_uid 1000 --ei allow 0 --ei version_code 18 --user 0

where did you get the A1 image ? I ask that because I only provide superSU since a while now... It looks to be SuperUser app

Did you download it 7 days ago or later ?
[Miscellaneous Android Development] :
Yes. The A1 image was this one: RV03RC08:

system.img.gz

And yes, I did download the SuperUser app.

Hello

i have a Acer Iconia A1-810 i Root this with this instructions. I install Titanium Backup and SuperSU. When i start SuperSU it will install a update, but the update cant install, because a error:

The SUU binary must be last updated, Continue?

I push on further and tell him that he should install the normal and not CWM, then the installation fails

I think before I don´t installed the last update I can´t uninstall any system app.

I Dont know how to install the CWM on the Tablet.

Than i do that:

But i still cant uninstall any app.

when I go to Titanium Backup and uninstall the acercloud App, Titanium Backup , titanium backup says that the app is uninstalled but in the app menu accercloud is still there and can used without any problems

Can anyone tell me why i cant uninstall any system app like acercloud, although I have root right? And how i install CWM on Acer Iconia A1-810
[Miscellaneous Android Development] scl_002:
thanks

[Miscellaneous Android Development] entonjackson:

- B1-A710 is also supported.

- New: Swap Internal / External SD for B1-710/B1-A710

- Fix: Checking Firmware version for B1-710/B1-A710 properly
[Miscellaneous Android Development] sodaFR:
Whick image did you download ? for which firmware version ?

for the RV18RC07_WW_GEN1 firmware, superSU and Titanium backup are already installed.

Busybox is already installed. You should not install a new version but if you know exactly what you are doing.

You did something wrong as at least 5 others users installed the image provided in the first page with success.

Where did you bought your A1-810 ? (just to be sure of the firmware revision)
[Miscellaneous Android Development] DustArma:
It's true, YouTube HD videos have severe desynchronization problems with the B1-A71 even though the chipset is supposed to support them.
[Miscellaneous Android Development] sodaFR:

Succesfully run root Tools, but got permisson deny when type su in Iconia A1

Hi,

I used your 0.7.0 (and 0.6.3) root tools and tried to root my Iconia A1.

I had tried Linux (root from scratch method) and Windows root method, the results are the same. All said successfully rooted after finish execution those root tools.

But actually My Iconia A1 can not execute su when I go into shell. (I use adb shell to verify su succeed or not).

The message from shell console shows permission denied.

Is there any steps missed from me?

Thanks

help ! :crying::crying:
[Miscellaneous Android Development] entonjackson:
hmm. you installed SuperSu afterwards?
[Miscellaneous Android Development] scl_002:
b1-710

I haved test but it is no go good
[Miscellaneous Android Development] kingstonliao:
Yes, I did install supersu apk, but the reult is the same - permission deny.

I have checked the su is inserted into system/bin successfully after run your tools, only when I excute su inside adb shell,

it will get permission deny.

I have rooted many android phone before, if rooted suceed, then inside adb shell, it is easy to see # sign, when I type su in shell.

But it seems permission deny cause, I can not see # sign inside adb shell.
[Miscellaneous Android Development] scl_002:
with the last version
[Miscellaneous Android Development] entonjackson:
it seems the su binary is not chmodded properly.
[Miscellaneous Android Development] bsdnix:
can someone explain me this

what does it do?

does it work with B1-710 8GB version of Iconia...?
[Miscellaneous Android Development] Tortules:
My Build Number is: Acer_AV052_A1-810_1.077.00_WW_GEN1

Then i have installed SuperSU and Titanium Backup from the store

After Root i Busybox, SuperSU and Titanium Backup wasnt installed.

I bought my Tablet at Conrad

I Hope it will help you, to help my with my problem

I Think i download the Wrong image. I used the instruction from Handy-faq but the User from Handy-faq can´t help me anymore with this problem
[Miscellaneous Android Development] kingstonliao:
It is stange, su group=root, user=root, permission=rwx,sr_x, sr_x.

Anything wrong?
[Miscellaneous Android Development] entonjackson:
the way i'm creating the system.img.gz... i do a:

sudo chmod 06755 /media/iconia/bin/su

which explains the permissions above. and they are fine.
[Miscellaneous Android Development] kingstonliao:
So if it correct, what happened to my su permission deny in adb shell?
[Miscellaneous Android Development] bsdnix:
Hi enton, sorry to bump into this but I've read your change log and found this:

what does Swap Internal / External SD actually do?
[Miscellaneous Android Development] entonjackson:
If an SD Card is inserted, it will swap your internal SD space with the space from plugged in SD Card.

Pro: More Internal SD, e.g. 32GB instead of 5GB

Con: "Only" Internal SD, not Internal Memory + you must keep the SD plugged in at all times.

My toolkit allows to swap in both directions.
[Miscellaneous Android Development] bsdnix:
Ah ok, just one question, is it possible to transfer installed apps to external SD card (same as application "app2sd" is doing...), and every other installation that will be installed on micro SD...? and is there any tool for overclocking?

OK I got an explanation:

http://forums.androidcentral.com/samsung-galaxy-tab-2-10-1/265280-why-doesnt-tab-2-allow-apps-moved-sd-card.html
[Miscellaneous Android Development] entonjackson:
App2SD is nothing more than moving apps from internal memory to internal SD, which is included in android 4 or higher. So you can use it anyway.
[Miscellaneous Android Development] bsdnix:
I know..., that is just what I need, but unfortunately it doesn't work anymore...
[Miscellaneous Android Development] entonjackson:
what does that mean?

What does not work?

what have you tried?
[Miscellaneous Android Development] trowieownz:
not working for me :(

Can anyone help please?

[Miscellaneous Android Development] entonjackson:
Just download again... it's still 0.7.1 but i changed it.

i don't count up the version for minimal changes.
[Miscellaneous Android Development] trowieownz:
Last update fixed the error, now getting this -

"E: No system.img.gz found in folder 'system_image' in toolkit directory."

But I have the system image in the folder...
[Miscellaneous Android Development] entonjackson:
system.img or system.img.gz?
[Miscellaneous Android Development] trowieownz:
The file I have in the folder just says system, tried renaming to system.img.gz still same error, it's the image downloaded for

RV05RC05

If your asking if the error says .img.gz or .img then it says .img.gz
[Miscellaneous Android Development] entonjackson:
People...!

Don't rename stuff.

If you really want to brick your device, take a hammer and go.

The windows explorer has a "feature" to hide file extensions.

i would disable it. If you don't know how it's done, google it.

then: if you have only "system" standing there, then it's probably a system.img... again: probably

disable that stupid windows feature to go 100% sure.

then... renaming a file called system or system.img to system.img.gz doesn't make it a gz file.

it's the same as you would rename an .exe file to a .docx file, resulting in having a great letter for the girlfriends next birthday. it won't work!

now i really don't wonder, why there are so many brick reports here.

folks, please read and think a little!

thanks.
[Miscellaneous Android Development] bsdnix:
gonna try it again and give you full info about that...
[Miscellaneous Android Development] trowieownz:
I only renamed it .gz because i thought it was missing, if its not in the folder it wont run so it wouldn't brick... I have read EVERYTHING. Disabled the hide extensions and it says system.img is this correct? Tried it again no luck
[Miscellaneous Android Development] entonjackson:
no.

you need a system.img.gz.

i recommend downloading again.

if you use tools like jDownloader, that unzip automatically after downloading, disable it.

i had this also.

but when you download a system image from page one, it should have the forma:

system.img.gz
[Miscellaneous Android Development] trowieownz:
That could be the problem, downloaded via JDownloader 2 - I'll try again, thanks for helping me out!

Download through firefox and extracted through WinRar, file shows as system.img no .gz and got the same error :crying:
[Miscellaneous Android Development] entonjackson:
why the f*** do you extract it?
[Miscellaneous Android Development] trowieownz:
Because the downloaded file is showing as .rar -- Just put the unextracted system.img in the system folder got same error...
[Miscellaneous Android Development] entonjackson:
which download link is it?
[Miscellaneous Android Development] sodaFR:
LOL it is not a rar file

GZ is an extension that winrar can handle... that's why the file has the RAR icon
[Miscellaneous Android Development] trowieownz:
It was showing as .rar that's why it was saying no system.img.gz in folder. Antivirus was blocking it, disabled it and re-downloaded now showing .gz - Toolkit said Acer Iconia B1 is rooted, but now its just stuck?
[Miscellaneous Android Development] entonjackson:
stuck where?
[Miscellaneous Android Development] bullbrand:
no

the upgrade still shows to same number on mine as well so if you have done upgrade then its ready to be rooted using the image i posted above and the root tool ok..
[Miscellaneous Android Development] entonjackson:
Yes but 0.4.1 still only supporting firmware v05. it won't let you root if you're on another version than v05. I will keep the check and warn the user that he's not up to date but don't exit the application. but still I'm not home, so you need to have patience. I wanted to do this in toolkit version 0.5 anyway but couldn't finish internal 2 external feature yet. so please be patient. I will release a 0.4.2 this evening allowing too root any firmware version again.
[Miscellaneous Android Development] arwahabibi:
Yes i understand my friend, but my problem is upgrade is done but number on iconia is 05 no 06 after upgrading with your image.zip

I tested upgrading to 06 I place this on sd card and internal memory and upgrading but no upgrade for me.

What is my problem?

Sorry for my english i live in Belgium
[Miscellaneous Android Development] bullbrand:
ok i posted this earlier so it explains the best i can the numbers after upgrade remain the same ..

ok had a look at acer site and the only Os list there now is

Acer.AV051.B1-A71.RV05RC06.WW.GEN1

downloaded and installed it

had a look after install at settings about and its listed as

image Acer.AV051.B1-A71.RV05RC05.WW.GEN1

Build Acer_AV051_B1-A71_1.258.00_WW_GEN1

so created a new pre-rooted image will upload and send to entonjackson as he will need to check what to do with the iconia tool incase it needs tweeking . maybe the build number is differn't now

as both the last 2 acer OS with differn't image numbers now show as the SAME image number on iconia .. well at least on mine maybe someone else can check it .

so its OK
[Miscellaneous Android Development] entonjackson:
on mine the number switched to 06. but I lost root after applying the update.
[Miscellaneous Android Development] bullbrand:
the 06 upgrade remains the same image number after upgrade

even in the build.prop file its still listed as ro.build.pandora.id ok

so major isssue as long as they upgrade to 06 before using new image

ps

IMO all they have done is merge the 26 meg file they had as a mini upgrade into the previous full upgrade image ..

dave

---------- Post added at 07:26 PM ---------- Previous post was at 07:18 PM ----------

must be me going nutty then mine still shows 05 after rechecking it i have installed that image 2 times now and re-rooted no problems

i think i will wait until you check it out before i respond to other help requests ok.

dont want to create problems for others
[Miscellaneous Android Development] arwahabibi:
Haaaa Ok If I undestand, My upgrading is ok but number remain the same?

I see in my B1 and this image Acer.AV051.B1-A71.RV05RC05.WW.GEN1

Build Acer_AV051_B1-A71_1.258.00_WW_GEN1 It' ok for me this information is good in my B1

I can use img pre-rooted 06 for root my B1? i can continue ?
[Miscellaneous Android Development] entonjackson:
if the firmware version is really still 05 after upgrade then it should work!
[Miscellaneous Android Development] nick_1964:
So all together, I rooted RV05RC05 with the script.

When I upgrade to RV05RC06 I will lost the root.

When I use the script and the provided new image for 06, it will not upgrade or root.

So it will better to stay on the rooted RV05RC05 and wait until there is a new script that supports RV05RC06 ?

Because I don't understand it anymore !

And.. why did acer removed RV05RC06...
[Miscellaneous Android Development] KrameX:
prerooted firmware version RV05RC06 is not released yet? or the link is broken??
[Miscellaneous Android Development] arwahabibi:
Just for Information for you My ro.build.pandora id: is RC05 it's risked use the img pre rooted 06 no?
