It's an A1-810, i was on my rooted and cleaned(removed some acer apps) RV21RC02, and decided to upgrade to RV27RC03, so i unrooted and was going to upgrade using the OTA updater, but i figured it wouldn't work because it needs to have the default systemapps(acerapps) when it updates because it patches them in the update.

So what i did was i flashed a stock RV21RC02 i had which included the acer apps and all bloat, and tried to update with the OTA to RV27RC03, but then i got an error saying i didnt have enough storage space to update (103MB).

What i then did instead was i downloaded the RV27RC03 image from the #1 page in this thread and flashed that (i know i should not flash other versions then i have) but this flash worked fine, i was on stock RV27RC03.

Finally i had made a rooted version of the same RV27 image i downloaded, and when i flashed that and rebooted it went into bootloop/bricked.
[Miscellaneous Android Development] konsolen:
Yes Sir. No Problem to make a system.img.gz.

I send you download link.

Iam working hard for a ustom recovery. I had success to Boot with fastboot Boot command. But must make more tests.

The display quali gets much better with the tweaks. Also integrated the 4.4 keyboard, Gallery and camera.

Possible to change nav buttons without reboot also.

The 1.35 GHz run also well.go up to 1.45 for the last 24hours without probs.

I give normaly nothing for bench results but to control the power is ok. Antutu goes up from around 12k to around 14k.

So the response is not only imagination :good:

Hi, Enton.

I´ve bought a tablet in China. My image version is RV04RC05_GC. ¿Do you think I will be able to root it? ¿Wich system.img.gz should I download?

Thank you.

We Have the mtk65xx chip. 8125 is a acer renamed Version.

[Miscellaneous Android Development] KieranFoot:
Any chance of you providing your compiled clockworkmod to the community?
[Miscellaneous Android Development] fREAST:
Thanks.

So i could apply this update via sdcard and the recovery menu etc, it proceeded and said everything was ok with the install.

Then i rebooted and i actaully came a little longer into the boot process, before i update it only showed the first Acer logo and rebooted immidiately after that, but after i had applied this update it showed the first logo and then the second animated acer logo came up but unfortunately it just rebooted after having shown the animated logo for about 5 seconds, so i was still in bootloop.

So i shut the tab down by pressing the shutdown/reset button (pinhole) and after that i cant even turn on the tab, i have no idea why this happend..

It's like it is completely dead now, nothing happens when i press power on, and yes i know the battery still is charged.

Hi All,

Confirmed that this toolkit works perfectly with my acer iconia A1-810, i'm on RV27RC03_WW_GEN1 so i root it from scratch using linux.

my internal memory is only 8 GB (around 5 GB available) so i did the swap internal --> external memory on the toolkit on 32 GB SD card.

However, after i reboot it only shows internal memory as 8 GB and SD card not detected on the settings-->storage page, after reinserting the SD card it still showing the same. but when i go to file manager its showing internal memory as 32 GB (?), is this the normal behavior after doing the swap?.

right now i'm still having problems downloading big apps from the play store (insufficient space error), which i think it might be related with the "internal memory" storage i have left ( < 5 GB ).
[Miscellaneous Android Development] entonjackson:
Just download the toolkit and unzip it. don't copy or move the files inside around.

Actually since 0.7.8 i use b1-710 as a folder, not b1_710.

It should work with 0.7.8! But as a workaround just rename the folder in external2internal from b1-710 to b1_710

What should i do now? If there is no solution i'll unroot and send device to acer.

İ ve asked someone from my collouge he says my tablet gives partition table faliure. Do you have any idea ?
[Miscellaneous Android Development] :
You should be able to get the contents of dumchar_info file or the file itself by using ES Explorer, that's how I got it from my unrooted B1-710 a while back in this thread when it was requested.

I recommend version 1.6.2.5 - https://drive.google.com/file/d/0B0MVZEbH3XVVN05WelBlNXowZWs/edit?usp=sharing

Once installed, open it & go to:

Settings (Via the 3 dots on the Android Navigation Bar) > Other Settings > Root settings > Tick the "Up to Root" option

Now keep going back whilst using ES Explorer & go to the proc folder in the root of the device & find the dumchar_info file.

[Miscellaneous Android Development] superdragonpt:
This is not much help, Til this day Mediatek never released any full system sources.

Only kernel, and even those sources requires some work, due to several dummy code and messed symbols.

The brands are tied with Mediatek with very strick contracts.

On topic: to unlock the bootloader, all you need is an signed key, and an special tab format on the /secro partition . The best tool for formating all Mediatek's SoC is the SP Flash Tools

Root A1-811

Hello Everyone,

At first time, sorry if my English is not so good, but I'm a Belgian French spoken man.

I've since yesterday a Iconia A1-811, and I want to call with my tablet, because I need this tablet for my work.

My Tablet was with the latest version of the official acer firmware:

Something like that: "Acer_AV052_A1-811_RV02RC020-WW_GEN1

I follow the instructions to root my tablet with:

Acer Iconia Toolkit v.0.7.7

I put the system.img.gz in the folder from the Toolkit, the image is based on RV02RC22_TWN_GEN1 that I've download :

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2240029

The toolkit do the root and I've a success message on the end.

I want to reboot, but i've a bootloop on the acer logo.

-> Go Recovery, update from sd card with the file RV01RC11_WW_GEN1

-> Restart, and it works.

Now I've a Tablet in follow version:

Acer_AV052_A1-811_RV01RC11_WW_GEN1

I'm not making any update now ...

If anyone can help me to root my tablet ? And is it possible to make some calls after root if i install the datas?

Otherwise I probably don't need to root.

I think if my tablet have a slot for sim card, and 3g network, i can unlock this function ?

Thanks in advance,

Kind regards
[Miscellaneous Android Development] entonjackson:
To make calls you could just install a dialer like Ex dialer & contacts

[Miscellaneous Android Development] Natsuignir:

I Think I need to install telephony provider.apk, but don't think it is possible unroot.

I have a message apk Not installed.

Then you could write on the front page for now root on a1 810 does not work? what's the risk that other brick the tablet? Thanks
[Miscellaneous Android Development] entonjackson:
I think the risk is Zero, when using root from scratch from within Linux.

As there are a lot of people successfully rooted their devices with my toolkit, I don't see why it should be generally impossible.

Root A1-811

Hello Everyone,

I'im trying to root my Iconia A1-811, firmware RV02RC20_WW_GEN1.

I've try to find a system.img.gz for my current version, but cannont find it.

I read that i need to make an image from myself with something la linux root scratch.

But I'm don't understand anything in linux:

What I have do:

i've run the terminal, tape :

ubuntu@ubuntu:~$ cd '/media/ubuntu/Acer/Users/Marnick/Desktop/HACK TABLETTE/acer_iconia_toolkit_v0.7.7'

ubuntu@ubuntu:/media/ubuntu/Acer/Users/Marnick/Desktop/HACK TABLETTE/acer_iconia_toolkit_v0.7.7$ chmod +x toolkit.sh

ubuntu@ubuntu:/media/ubuntu/Acer/Users/Marnick/Desktop/HACK TABLETTE/acer_iconia_toolkit_v0.7.7$ ./toolkit.sh

bash: ./toolkit.sh: Permission denied

I really don't understand what to do :

- I have launch ubuntu with live cd

- I connected my tablet on the computre

- I launch the terminal with ctrl+alt+t

- I tape cd + paste te link from the repertory of acer toolkit

- and the i tape the command chmod +x toolkit.sh

./ toolkit.sh

But i don't have understand what i've do.

So if anyone can help me to find an image or to make one by my self.

Thanks in advance
[Miscellaneous Android Development] treetop777:
This may help you get the toolkit started. This is for Lubuntu but it should be similar in Ubuntu:

Right-click on the file "toolkit.sh"

click on "properties"

Go to "permissions" tab

Change all permissions to "anyone" then "ok" (maybe different in ubuntu)

right click on "toolkit.sh" again, then "open"

select "execute in terminal" (maybe different in ubuntu)

That should open terminal and start the toolkit.

Good luck.

Obviously the answer is to uninstall some apps as you don't have enough space... Easiest way is to perform factory reset in settings or recovery.
