No any changes with factory reset ?

Any thing else ? Any posibilites to reset it ?

What didn't work? Any error message in Carliv Recovery? Or you can flash userdata and cache partition only via SPFT.

Bootloader for this phone

Hello all,

I wanna try to reflash bootloader on this phone but can't find any bootloader.img for this phone an the internet. I need it because the phone after restart is dumped by a lot of errors with stopped working applications so I tried to do a wipe data and cache. It douesn't work (it says that it is complete but after reboot nothing changes). So I try to flash new ROM using SP Flash tools but after downloading rom and download complete message I restarted that phone and nothing was changed. So I tried to flash new recovery through fastboot and root a device but it isn't working (Failed partition recovery doesn't support flash). fastboot oem commands are malfunctioning (tried on 3 PC's with 7 data cables and it writes only "..." three dots and nothing happen. So I reboot to that chinese recovery or what it is (i think it is master boot or what) and there are adb commands working so I tried adb shell and wipe system and data and it says to me that this data are read only. Tried adb root or adb remount. After adb remount the wipe all command works but after restarting device nothing happens and in the adb shell I see the content of system and data folder is back. Now here are only one thing which can I do and it is reflashing bootloader and try to unlock it and format that device. If it will not work so there might is some problem with memory and I can't do anything. Have someone or can someone help me to find new bootloader for this phone? Thanks a lot for any help.

Looking for advice

Hi there,

I'm having a Liquid E3 that doesn't work anymore (I'm getting an error message every sec ) telling me that a process xyz crashed; the message appear for almost all apps that are installed on the phone. I though I could try to bring my phone in its orginal state but it is impossible to do it on the phone itself as it usable.

I installed the VCOM drivers and SPFT V3.1344; downloaded the scatter file for the MT6589 and downloaded the 'orignal' boot.img to my phone. All went apprently ok but to my big surprise when I start my phone after the download everything is like before (wallpaper; password etc). I assume I missed Something but I don't what. Could someone having experience give me a hint?

Thank you

hi,

I have same problems that "bronxbu"i,"daNN1e"L,"Me063" with my e380.

Have you find a solution ?

i've contacted Acer, and their answer is :"motherboard failure"

what dou you think?

i tryed "wipe data:factory reset" and re-install this zip :"Acer_av0k0_e380_1.018.00_emea_gen1" with stock recovery :install ok ,but the problem not fixed

thanks for your help
[Miscellaneous Android Development] edward0181:
Is there still any dev on this model, or is it more likely to trash this device and go to different one (as I use as 2th phone only)?
[Miscellaneous Android Development] Timmmmaaahh!:
It's a mid-2014 low budget phone with a Mediatek processor, virtually no user support from Acer and not a massive community to start off with. I'm pretty sure it's deprecated by now [emoji14]

But, it's still serving me well! I'm using it for a timelapse project right now. It ain't great but it works.

[Miscellaneous Android Development] BreitBandDieb:
I have a serious problem: through a bootloop somehow the android system was deleted(?). It shows an opened android which seems need to be repaired...

What do i do now? It seems like i need a new recovery, right? Or can i used the preinstalled?

Where can i download a ROM (should be like stock android(incl. Gapps, nothing overloaded)

Please reply. Asking for a good friend. Please dont say get a new phone. Need help
[Miscellaneous Android Development] Timmmmaaahh!:
You should be able to press the power button at that point, or maybe vol-up/vol-down or a combination, I remember getting at that point too on the same device, no sure how I solved it but I do remember some button pressing made something appear. Perhaps you can manage flashing a new recovery (if needed) via fastboot and you can wipe Dalvik, that could possibly solve it. If you still need an image, I found two files from those days on my Drive:

mysrc-3.0.015.zip

mysrc-4kernel2.zip

I can't provide any warranties for these files, I don't remember if they work or not, flash at your own risk! Hope it helps anyone.

Can Iask to the admin to re-assign teh first post to someone that want to update it ior almost add the scatter in first post.

I'm working with other Italian user and I sent to him the unlocked bootloader for RC18 (to have it the pre-root).

We are trying to make a backup with MTKdroid.

I am still alive

Hi guys and girls, I am still alive! :)

As you can see I moved on in my (mobile) life, but if I can do anything to keep my life work ;) going, then just ask!

All still on the old Acer?

I just did the first (and final?) big update and cleanup on the first post in a while (sorry for leaving u in the dark!)!

Anything that I should add or change? The custom ROM section is the only very outdated part (and missing some info on latest official ROM/update), so please inform me which are the current or most used ROMs now (and versions and links).

No PM please. ;)

PS. Who will be the one giving me my happy 100th TY? :D :D :D
[Miscellaneous Android Development] Timmmmaaahh!:
Ha, I did! :D

Good to see you alive and well bud. I've moved on as well of course as my sig reflects but I still use the good old ALE3 for a timelapse project. Albeit, with much difficulty as it tends to randomly reboot after it's been taking shots for a while. I connected it via AirDroid so I can remotely access it and get it up and running again without much hassle. If you decide to push a stability update, I'd be happy to flash it :)

Edit: here's a souvenir:

Hi,

Does anyone tried to compile and boot a Kernel from Acer sources ?

The best way to have an updated CWM or TWRP is to make a lighter Kernel Image :)

hello i acsidently wiped my phone useing sp flash tool and i have tryed to get it to connect to reinstall my backup but the preloader is missing and it will also not connect my laptop just says unknown usb device :/ and help ?
[Miscellaneous Android Development] hackwerk:
This is NOT a topic for general failure/wipe/sos requests, but:

1) Sure you are using the right drivers (see FP)(previously worked on that pc with that drivers)?

2) Sure you use a right version of SP Flash Tools (not all work on all systems, see FP)?

3) Try connecting to phone OFF or phone ON or phone in Recovery / Fastboot (see FP)?

4) ADB also not working?

5) When no preloader or recovery (deleted your Preloader?! Thats a problem / BIG mistake), maybe Google?
[Miscellaneous Android Development] S3LEE:
I have made a custom rom that i will test out first then upload.. :o
[Miscellaneous Android Development] hackwerk:
First, how did you fix your phone then? Did my post help?

Second, (all due respect) you are a Junior Member developing a ROM? First time?

What is it based on and what will it contain (or not)? Please give us some info? :)
[Miscellaneous Android Development] S3LEE:
took 8 hours:eek: but i managed to get it running with the flash tool even though it kept asking me to remove the battery (which we know you cannot:/ ) then i formatted it again installed the back up using your files ect but it just boot looped then i flashed a file on here that was the stock rom and it came on all messed up i formatted it and then reinstalled it again then i had nv error luckly i had backed it up so restored it, i have a working device now but dont think all the system files and the nv flash is quite right but atlest its not bricked anymore

ive made loads of roms , found all kinds of ways to mod samsung htcs ect like imei mods, kernel,roms ect , i will have a full description on it soon
[Miscellaneous Android Development] Adge40:
Hi all,just got this phone and I like it,looks a bit harder to mod than my last phone (ascend y300 running slimkat),I am not computer dumb but also not experienced and all the scatterfile stuff above just went over my head :),none of the one click root methods listed don't work(I had success with Kingo then ran the update that night,lost root couldn't get it back)I'm prepared to take a few risks with it as the wife's new phone is still in the box(she don't want it)and so have two of these phones,I can see this is a developer thread and have learnt much from it (thx people)I was wondering if you people knew of any threads on these phone that was more noobi 'ish thx in advance p.s. its a UK e380 single sim on three
[Miscellaneous Android Development] hackwerk:
I already posted some links to very n00bish tutorials on rooting with flash methods! (or just read and LEARN, because it is useful and flashing etc can be dangerous!)

Another option is to revert back to stock or ROMs of before last update, then root with latest Kingo, and use Voodoo OTA Rootkeeper so that you can update again and keep root!
[Miscellaneous Android Development] S3LEE:
download aptoide http://bit.ly/1k8fspW add the store "leetmercer" then go through my latest apps find "towel root" install press make it rain then it will reboot rooted download "SU" off the app store,enable USB debugging connect to PC then install mtk tools on you PC press root then go to recovery use the option "use boot from phone" then wait till done use the option reboot to recovery then it will reboot in cwm and then your rooted with custom recovery :D
[Miscellaneous Android Development] Adge40:
S3LEE Unfortunately this did not work on my ale3,tried the towel root just after the last update then tried yours,it was a no go :( UK ale3 single sim
[Miscellaneous Android Development] Shreps:
Best way to root this phone is by flashing cwm and the SuperSU update :)
[Miscellaneous Android Development] S3LEE:
Try and use VRoot its on my store as well install (I know its I. Chinise) just press the big button at the start and it will root,once u have it working can you backup your system files with mtk tools because I need the single sim firmware because I am running the dual sim firmware mine is also 3 UK
[Miscellaneous Android Development] Di@mond:
Hey S3LEE I know its late in the night, but I've only read your post a few hrs ago, and its taken me a couple of hrs to get things sorted for you.

Ive uploaded a copy of a stock CWM backup in the hopes it can help you. its located HERE Just click on the title, where it says "Download: 2014-06-28.20.54.27.rar" to Download

EDIT* Single sim firmware on 3 network on latest update via OTA update, rooted VIA CWM process.

[Miscellaneous Android Development] S3LEE:
Its never to late now that I have a new born haha! Aw that's great thanks a lot for the firmware also the speedy.sh explantion because i have give up loads with that site trying to download off it!
[Miscellaneous Android Development] Di@mond:
Congrats on the newborn ;) dude.

I hope this firmware works out for you. I did a backup of my current system file, then deleted the system (factory reset via CWM), and did anotjer backup which ive uploaded. Hopefully NONE of my Junk files/settings are preset with the backup. You might have to root it as i dont know if CWM saves that type of thing.
[Miscellaneous Android Development] S3LEE:
Thanks;) yeah that's great even if it did have any files or blah blah I'll give it a good wipe and re root and all that will report back once flashed thanks again:good:

i tryed to flash it then there was some files missing so i mixed and matched mine and yours bricked the phone for a little while but now its back working haha erm i was wondering could you make a backup using mtk tools that will make a backup off all the files also the scatter file so that it can be flashed with sp tools ill include a picture of my already backed up files from the dual sim firmware:)
[Miscellaneous Android Development] emogibran:
Yeay!! An official thread for Acer E3.... I hope there will be a custom ROM for this phone, well I tried to port MIUI rom but it's failed :(
[Miscellaneous Android Development] Adge40:
Thx S3LEE, I tried vroot from an APK on the web and failed,it didn't work,I tried you're vroot from aptoide and it worked the very first time,I overcome the Chinese language barrier by then installing chain fires supersu from google play and updating the binary,now fully rooted without even going near a PC,big thumb up S3LEE :)
[Miscellaneous Android Development] S3LEE:
Glad I could help! If you want to remove tthe chinise root but stay rooted through super user open super user back up wait around 30 seconds it will give you a option to remove the chinise root and keep up rooted through SU;)
[Miscellaneous Android Development] hackwerk:
S3LEE: So VRoot IS working? (Towel is not yet, because it is made for Kitkat)

WARNING TO ALL: (CLOSED SOURCE) BINARY ROOT METHODS LIKE VROOT (CHINESE!!!) CAN BE VERY DANGEROUS (TROJANS, SPYWARE ETC) !!! USE AT OWN RISK!
[Miscellaneous Android Development] Adge40:
I rooted using vroot then immediately replaced the SuperSU with chainfires SuperSU in google play and all is good :) also may be worth a mention that SuperSU pro in the play store comes with OTA survival mode(untested,I will post findings on next firmware update)
[Miscellaneous Android Development] hackwerk:
Can more people please message me ALL methods of Root Tools they have tried, and found NOT working (which version of our Acer used and which version of exploit)?

And please someone with non-rooted phone, try the new versions of (OWN RISK):

1) ...

2) Bin4ry v35

3) Framaroot 1.9.3

etc?
[Miscellaneous Android Development] Adge40:
Eroot,super one click root,SRS and one click root did not work on my single sim 3uk (I tried all twice)

P.s. One click root had bubbledock adware attached to the download
[Miscellaneous Android Development] S3LEE:
yeahh also once installed download SuperSU and then press uninstall when it asks do you want to remove another app thats roots your phone ( which will be vroot) ;)
[Miscellaneous Android Development] Adge40:
Is exposed framework safe to use on these devices??
[Miscellaneous Android Development] Shreps:
Yes, I'm using it + gravity box, working fine :)
[Miscellaneous Android Development] Adge40:
Now my next question,does all the above,I.e. recoveries.rooting,mods,tweaks and hopefully in the near future custom ROMs etc,is all this stuff for the duo 4gb or the single sim 2gb variants and any other form of ale3,whatever is posted here,will it work on all ale3's(I only say this because my firmware number is different to the one listed at the beginning of this thread)??
[Miscellaneous Android Development] hackwerk:
All is made from and for E380 Duo (1GB/4GB) as you can see in my sig, but will probably work on all. All phones are very similar.

If you have other version etc do a system update? Not available??

If I am right Kitkat (ANdroid 4;4) will come soon for us, so lets wait for that and we start over :P

Thx for your message, I'm goona have a look on this.

I've another question, I've often a message saying "plesae quite the save mode", I looked into option and for me I'm not into the save mode.

So I don't understand this message.

I've also noticed that I've some wifi issue (deconnexion) and I think both are linked.

Someone have an idea about this save mode message?!

Thx

Nicolas
[Miscellaneous Android Development] hackwerk:
Yes you can, and you have to do nothing to do so.

Only thing is that in an update most of the time old root methods (exploits) are fixed, and root is disabled, so you would have to root again.

Voodoos OTA Rootkeeper will KEEP root (duh) however (see TS/FP).
[Miscellaneous Android Development] nicollivier:
Thx for your message however what do you mean by "see TS/FP" ?!
[Miscellaneous Android Development] Adge40:
Well I've attempted to flash the cwm recovery,I've managed to download all the tools except one,the e380 scatter file does not appear to be an actual download,I tried shreps and I tried hackwerks,I click on the link/download and it just appears as a bunch of numbers etc on my screen,is it meant to be a download or am I meant to do something with the numbers??,any help/advice will be much appreciated,thx in advance
[Miscellaneous Android Development] Shreps:
The scatter file is a txt file, save it on your desktop

Then you will have to load it in SP Flash Tool, use my French tutorial (with google translate ;))
[Miscellaneous Android Development] nicollivier:
Someone has an idea about this "save mode" issue?

Another question, with my others phones I was used to take pictures with Google camera, simple and efficient app for my point of view. The Acer one is not so good, impossible to take panorama. Someone manages to install Google camera app on his phone ?
[Miscellaneous Android Development] Shreps:
With the stock acer app, You can have every classic mode with the left menu : HDR, panorama, multi angle, smile detect, etc...
[Miscellaneous Android Development] hackwerk:
Newsflash:

Android 4.4 KitKat for Acer E380 will release in 6 weeks from now (mid August 2014)!

Another thing is that my screen is still cracked (LCD works and looks fine, BEHIND the cracks in the plastic), but Acer will charge more than 100 euro to fix this as they must replace the whole LCD module (inc digitizer).

This LCD part, 6M.HDZH7.001, costs over 120 euro everywhere on the net, but I bought the whole new phone for just 160 euro.

So I guess everyone will walk around with ugly broken Acer phones then, or buy other/new phones. So much for the environment :(
