Really nice. That's what Im searching for. How I can make an backup first?
[General Questions and Answers] nikagl:
I don't think that's possible. There's some backup tools, but most cannot make very good backups unless you have a rooted device with custom recovery. However, in my case, all apps and configuration was still intact after the upgrade. Just make sure your ROM version is the same as the (rooted) one you are switching to.

Anyone else tips for backup?

Regards,

Nika.
[General Questions and Answers] paugustin:
Acer does provide a backup tool with the phone... Just look in the apps drawer.

[General Questions and Answers] robinvanesch:
Process finnished but nothing?

Hi Everybody,

As i was bored at work decided to try to root my S1.

Followed the step by step to the letter on the french website (google translate ftw).

Now the root tool sayed process finished. Reboot now,

I did phone boots normally, but nothing is diffirent? and if i try to run any of the apps i wanted to that require root it still says phone not rooted, so i think nothing did happon, im fairly new to the whole rooting thing

Thing i did notice i got the img file from shreps's website. (tnx for hosting it btw). but the file was only system510. root tool could not find it on my phone after i copy'd it.

I renamed the file to system510.img and the root tool seemd to have done its job, rebooted the phone but still nothing happond. so im not sure what or how or ??

Phone's still working as it did before so np but would be nice to have it rooted, tnx
[General Questions and Answers] nikagl:
Hi Robin,

Do you have any screenprints of the root tool? Any other errors?

Regards,

Nika.
[General Questions and Answers] robinvanesch:
Its the v1.2, iv try'd it again, what i saw was that the tool did some things on the S1

But when it typed in some code and hit run, it just fliks run then after few mins it just goes away and the root tool says its finished, wich it isent.

Now i tryéd it again but when it just flikkerd on the RUN button i hit RUN manually.

Then it seemed like the tool stopt working and my phone got stuck. So i waited about half hour then closed the tool and reset my phone by pulling out the battery.

Booted it back on and it sayed "adjusting android bla bla.."

Presto phone rooted perfectly, so i think its a bug in the v1.2 tool ?

But it worked great, phone's rooted nothing lost all apps still there and working, and all the apps that required root work aswell now :D so im happy puppy.
[General Questions and Answers] nikagl:
What ROM did you download, just to be sure? What ROM was previously on your device? Do you have a single or dual SIM device? Did it generate an error during the flash?
[General Questions and Answers] robinvanesch:
I followed the french guide to the letter, the rom i had and the one i downloaoded was the 2nd one, (not sure what number it was sorry).

At first when it dident work i got no errors, it just sayed flashing, then finished.(in about max 2 mins) but that dident root the phone.

When i manually hit RUN on the S1, the phone locked, till i rebooted by pulling out battery after waiting for 30 mins.

The root tool/programm v1.2 was just stuck on "Flashing custom rom" till i closed it after half a hour, so i honnestly thought id get a nice shiny black brick, but it booted normally and was rooted.

So it worked perfectly, besides the program not saying it was finished.

And having to rename the img file (added .img extension) the one in the zip is not recognized by the root tool.
[General Questions and Answers] nikagl:
Thanks Robin, for your detailed response. My question was for "misterfopper" though - he was having problems with the ROM provided by Acer but he forgot to add specifics...

Good to hear your device didn't brick, I think in most cases the device may not be able to tell the root tool when dumping system has finished because the device will get into an non-responding mode when the system changes... all part of not being able to unlock partitions in any other way...
[General Questions and Answers] misterfopper:
Thanks for inquiry.

The Rom at my phone was the rooted system510_1.177.00_WW_GEN1, so I try to flash the orginal Acer Rom downloaded the package from their website (1.130.00_WW_GEN1) with the tool of Shreps, but I failed (maybee because I don't decompress the Zip and take the system.img inside). So my phone does not boot anymore. I take the update.zip from the package of Acer, copy it to SD card and install it via bootloader. So I could make an full wipe and flash the system510_1.130.00_WW_GEN1 of shreps. Now all rooted apps and the Xposed with GravityBox works fine.

shut down phone

press and hold Vol- and Power button until phone vibrates and press and hold Vol+ (all 3 buttons together)

phone will continue to vibrate a few times and then go into stock recovery

Try the roms posted in the frandroid forum (search for "1.177.00 s1 frandroid".

Don't think anyone tried yet...
[General Questions and Answers] farukokutan:
I don't know how I did it, but I tried doing this method but I ended up having a bootloop :(

However, I installed the Update.zip file from the Acer website and put it on a sd card.

1. Remove the battery from your Acer device

2. Vol. up + Vol. down + Power (has to vibrate 3 times).

3. You get in a menu where you can choose install update from sd card, choose it and pick the update.zip file

4. When finished, I had version 1.177.00 :D

5. Then go to the French forum and apply root, it works :D
[General Questions and Answers] Shreps:
Yes

And just for the record, we have all the Acer's official ROM Version flashable via the Stock Recovery (update.zip)

---------- Post added at 03:34 PM ---------- Previous post was at 02:47 PM ----------

Sorry... forget to ask:

With 1.177.00 will I be able to install and correctly update ADAway? Or 1.130.00 is mandatory?

Once installed rooted 1.177.00 (or 1.130.00) can I apply OTA updates? Root will be lost?

Thankyou
[General Questions and Answers] ivan69_mi:
OK, tried by myself and confirmed that the DUO ROM can be safely flashed (but the missing SIM notification always present) also on a single SIM device, but...

...installing 1.177.00 the system is not RW so it's not possible to use ADAway or similar (and TB too, at least for removing unwanted apps)

I tried to install 1.130.00 but cannot complete the work... during the flash from stock recovery it says something about incorrect partition layout and stops (!?!?)

At this point:

1) Is it normal that during root applying the phone doesn't reboot and stay on the telnet? And after the manual reboot SU is installed but all the default apps (Skitch, Moodagent, ...) are still present? Exactly what inside image510.img... it's not a rooted (and cleaned) ROM?

2) Is there any way to make system RW with 1.177.00?

3) Is there any AD blocker that can work without an RW system?

4) As a last chanche, how to go back to 1.130.00 and having a writable /system?

Thanks!
[General Questions and Answers] ivan69_mi:
Well... don't know exactly what changed, but after a while tried again to flash 1.130.00 and it worked!

So now I'm able to install whatever app I need, like ADAway... perfect!

Only one little issue: running Xposed installer it says that there's an update to v.2.4.1, but I'm not able to install as it says that /system/bin is RO...?!?

Is it correct or something is going wrong?

Thanks anyway to all for your help and suggestions
[General Questions and Answers] ivan69_mi:
No one?
[General Questions and Answers] Shreps:
There is some protection made by Acer

On the 1.130 version, you can mount in RW the /system partition but manually only using the modified busybox tool added in system. (many app with their own BusyBox will not be able to remount it)
[General Questions and Answers] ivan69_mi:
OK, so no way to manually give RW permission by modded busybox before updating XposedFW because it has its own busybox?

I already tried by RootExplorer, giving all permissions also to the framework (I don't remember now its name... catched from the update during this try), but it wasn't work... the strange thing was that it was copied as .org, so it seems that xposed was able to write in /system/bin... but then wasn't able to replace the framework with the new one

Doing some tests I also changed the name of the file winning a non booting phone... :(
[General Questions and Answers] ericsson2003:
Hi! Could You tell me how You flashed single sim? Please overview this process!!!
[General Questions and Answers] ivan69_mi:
From the stock recovery, exactly as mentioned here: http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=49639685&postcount=67

Simply put the .zip on the uSD and from the recovery chose to update from .zip file

I firstly installed 1.177.00, then once realized that the system wasn't RW I tried 1.130.00 with same method, but it said something about wrong partitions

Then re-installed 1.177.00, rooted it, then tried again with 1.130.00 and it worked

Now the phone is rooted with RW system (more or less for all apps) and everything is ok

Obviously, having only one SIM slot, it says that the 2nd SIM is missing, but it's not an issue for me

I accidentally flashed the ROM for dual sim and now I have that irritating 2nd sim slot issue.

Is it possible to remove this, or at least flash another rom to fix this?

Need help really urgent!
[General Questions and Answers] ivan69_mi:
Of course... you simply have to flash the ROM for single SIM... but you'll lose the root (in case you use it) as there's any single SIM rooted ROM available

AFAIK there's no way to remove the 2nd SIM icon (but the notification yes, through Xposed FW) if the flashed ROM is the dual SIM

Btw, I'm using the dual SIM rooted version on my single SIM S510 without any issue
[General Questions and Answers] farukokutan:
Hi, I did flash the ROM for single SIM device, but still got that icon of 2nd SIM? Am I doing it wrong and can you link a file to the rom perhaps?

I don't bother losing root, cause it updated itself and now its gone :)

[s510] ota kk 4.4.2 av0k0_s510_1.056.00_ww_gen1

Hi,

There was an official OTA KK for the S510, but Acer stopped the deployment after some users problems (bootloop, crashes).

Everything is resolved by making a factory reset, but this is not the desired behavior with an OTA. They will probably deploy a new version soon.

Attached my S510 up to date with KK :p.

ro.build.display.id=Acer_AV0K0_S510_1.056.00_WW_GEN1

ro.build.fingerprint=acer/s510_ww_gen1/a10:4.4.2/KOT49H/1403283134:user/release-keys

If you want to install this OTA manually, you can still download it on my website : S510-OTA-JB2KK-AV0K0_S510_RV0DRC01_1.056.00_WW_GEN1.zip

and flash it from stock recovery :) (and factory reset is _mandatory_ to avoid bootloop)

NB: you must be on the latest version of JB : acer/s510_ww_gen1/a10:4.2.2/JDQ39/1396714704

Yes, RV86RC06 = 1.273 = acer/s510_ww_gen1/a10:4.2.2/JDQ39/1396714704

I upgraded from that version to KK. Getting to that version should be done by:

FOTA upgrade from RV47RC01 (1.177) will not work. You need to download RV59RC01 (1.200) first. From that release you can upgrade to RV75RC01 (1.236) and then to RV86RC06 (1.273).

You can download RV59 from Acer:

[MENTION=313379]nikagl[/MENTION] is KK working fine on your S510 ? Did you had to factory reset? :p

I didn't need a factory reset but because I used the KK email and exchange apk's, email didn't work. Just to be sure I did a factory reset, but again - most of it worked fine. Definately no bootloop as I heard some others had.

For the rest KK is perfect, except for the write-access to sdcard being disabled for apps (which is a common problem, introduced in KK - "working as designed" according to Google). Just for that, I'd love root, but without write access to boot, or the private keys to make signed zips, I'm affraid we're not going to have it :(

Hi every1

I want to root my S1

According to Shreps rooting manual (http://acer-club.fr/viewtopic.php?f=210&t=9323) i have few question

I have newest version Acer_AV052_S510_1.277.00_EMEA_CUS1 (Acer_AV052_S510_RV86RC07_EMEA_CUS1) and i need to downgrade to 177version,

So what should i do?

Firstly download original 1.177 and flash it via recovery (from sd card(? And then extract modified system510.img to internal memory and open root1.2 from my computer?

Could someone help and give me some "step by step" advice?

Thanks a lot
[General Questions and Answers] nikagl:
Hi slimohnr,

Right, that's the procedure. So, to summarize:

1. Download the 1.177 version (see http://acer-club.fr/viewtopic.php?f=210&t=9264)

http://mon-nuage.net/S510/Acer_S510_AV052_AV052.RV47RC01_WW_GEN1_update.zip

2. Run that update zip through recovery

3. Factory reset your device

4. Download the new rooted img (from http://acer-club.fr/viewtopic.php?f=210&t=9323):

https://drive.google.com/file/d/0B_bko9M1FTYzMm96SHhmakZfV0E/edit?usp=sharing

5. Copy that file into your internal sdcard

6. Download the root1.2 file:

https://drive.google.com/file/d/0B_bko9M1FTYzTmNfZmYxMnlYdnM/edit?usp=sharing

7. Make sure the device is in developer mode

8. Run it from your PC. This process will take several minutes and your device may crash at the end. Make sure to wait at least 10 minutes and if necessary, remove the battery at the end to restart the device

9. Do factory defaults, just to be sure

Good luck :)

Nika.

I succesufull downgrade to 117 version, then i put system510.img on internal card, open S1 ROOT after rooting i recived info: done please restart your phone but after reboot (with factory reset or without) - there is no access to root :/
[General Questions and Answers] nikagl:
I have never done the upgrade through the script (did it manually). Did you see stuff happen on the screen? Are you sure there's no root, or do you mean there's no rw in system? Because this mod will only give you root access...

Edit1:

Also, when you run the tool again, what does it say? Going through the code Vache created I see he does a check "if (l_device.BusyBox.IsInstalled)", so it should present a message.

Last but not least, please check the version to make sure it is 1.177.

Edit2:

Some more comments from acer club website:

* make sure developer mode is enabled

* do not use swiftkey as default keyboard

* use this driver

I don't think Acer will deliver KK, because of the bootloops they sometimes cause. Afaik they were only when not factory resetting, but maybe it depends the rom you're coming from? I first did the Acer Rom I mentioned and then upgraded FOTA till up to date, and then KK and didn't have any issues...
