[General Questions and Answers] cabalio83:
I asked for the scatter file myself, check out the thread if anything good comes.

Btw.. I found a scatter file inside the official Acer update.zip, but I could't come to understand how to use it in SP flash tool. I think you may take a look at this too!!!

PS: once you get 10 posts or so you can post in developer forums, you are almost there
[General Questions and Answers] Calingo:
Fail

I Already Got My hands on one of Those But No Use :( They are not in SP tool Format From all The Three Scatter files You Gave Above Only One MT6572_Android_scatter.txt Works And Is Loaded By Flash tool But The Problem is its Not for A1 810 Flashing With It Could Permanently Brick

So I decided To Not to Take Risk Wait two More Days Or Flash With It Itself.

:( :highfive:
[General Questions and Answers] cabalio83:
What about putting the partition hex from A1 810 inside the MT6572 file?

I tried to figure out how the whole scatter thing works but I'm kinda lost here:good:

Btw you have 11 posts so try posting in dev threads, you should be OK now
[General Questions and Answers] Calingo:
Finally Got It

Modified The Scatter File And Works Thanks To

For Helping :good:

But I am Still Confused :confused: On how To Flash I can Figure Out Everything But The Problem :mad: Is My MTK Preloader Appears For Just A Couple Of Seconds And Then Disappears Maybe Theres A Method To Put Acer In MTK Preloader Mode Because I Tried To Download In that Couple Of Seconds And This Is What I Get

moving to Iconia toolkit thread?

Now that you van post in the Iconia toolkit I think it might ne better move there because you got more audience there ...

Higher chances somobody hekp us

About the tool waht files are you using (selected Giles)? Once the scatter thing was solved, then what al I supposed to flash??
[General Questions and Answers] swing4thefence:
I like having it in a new thread to make the info easier to find. I like that you posted a link to this thread in the toolkit thread and that will help people find it.

---------- Post added at 03:30 PM ---------- Previous post was at 03:29 PM ----------

Why don't you post the process you're following so the rest of us can try it? Maybe one of us can figure something out...
[General Questions and Answers] oscarblue48:
Maybe if somebody could post their mtkdroid tools log.txt file it might be possible to figure why you can't make the scatterfile with droid tools. The device doesn't need to be rooted to make the file.

Also I noticed that in your pic here Spflashtool shows the device as nand and I believe it has emmc type memory, maybe this has something to do with the scatter used as mt6572 are mostly nand devices.

I think this device has the mt8125 chip which is part of the mt6589 quad core family.

I don't have this device, just an interested spectator.
[General Questions and Answers] cabalio83:
Here you go :good::good:
[General Questions and Answers] oscarblue48:
Ok, well I'm no expert at reading these log files and unfortunately the dev who created the program [MENTION=5119815]rua1[/MENTION] has not posted on these threads for some months now, but from what I can see, droid tools identifies the cpu as mt8389, which I believe is almost identical to mt8125, but the droid tool does'nt support either, and nor does Spflashtool btw, so what you could try is this, if you open the Mtkdroidtools.ini file by right clicking on it and choosing edit, look for the following line;

MTKsocs = ^(MT65(16|72|73|75|77|89|92)|8135) and change the 8135 to 8389

then look for the line

SocToScatName = 6513:6573,6515:6575,6517:6577,8317:6577,8377:6577 and change 8377 for 8389 and the 6577 for 6589, like this

SocToScatName = 6513:6573,6515:6575,6517:6577,8317:6577,8389:6589 Then save the file and close.

Don't know if that will work but its worth a try, if it does it should produce a scatter file named MT6589_Android_scatter_emmc.txt which Spflashtool should recognise

Hope this helps:fingers-crossed:
[General Questions and Answers] oscarblue48:
Thats too bad, was hoping that was going to work, something I have noticed though, Mt8389 was given support since version 2.4.6 details here and yet it does'nt appear in the ini file for 2.5.3 I guess you could try the earlier version beyond that I'm stumped :eek:
[General Questions and Answers] cabalio83:
You are the man!!!

Just tried with version 2.4.6 and the button is "magically" working, that version comes with no MTKdroidTools.ini file, I think the problem is related.

So, here is the scatter file for iconia, (the real thing):D:D
[General Questions and Answers] oscarblue48:
Ha! Brilliant, well done!
[General Questions and Answers] cabalio83:
Now, let's try to flash...

Bum! Error :confused::confused:

It's the same error Calingo got with the "older" scatter

Maybe because the tablet has no-removable battery??
[General Questions and Answers] oscarblue48:
I think if this was my device I'd try first to connect to spflashtool using the readback function, because if it will connect then you can make a backup that you can flash with flashtool if it all goes pear shaped, also there are some devices that refuse to connect if the preloader block address is not included in flashtool, the checkbox should'nt be ticked(very dangerous if you download the wrong preloader)but sometimes the address has to be there. If you want to try using the readback function, there's a tutorial HERE the author is russian so the english is not brilliant, which makes it seem a little more complicated than it actually is.

Also I would try a few different versions of spflashtool, from the outset spflashtool has been pretty buggy and some versions work better with some devices, I have a mt6589t phone and had little success with the version you have been using v5.xx and prefer the older version 3.144 Download Here if you want to try it.

Also some info here about Modes of the usb vcom driver if still not connecting

SP flash not working

I've tried to have SP flash tools working, trying to make a ROM dump / backup.

Unfortunately I couldn't get the tool to connect to the tablet.

Drivers are installed (on windows x64 you have the additional handicap of unsigned driver... whatever...)

but at the time you press the read button and connect the tablet, it vibrates, goes into charging and the tool fails.

At the link http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=38369102&postcount=11 provided by [MENTION=5262551]oscarblue48[/MENTION]

I tried some combination but I had no luck, so the test point remains.... what is it? Found:

Here http://4pda.ru/forum/index.php?showtopic=458425&st=160#entry32237660 post #178 you find a nice guide about flashing B1-A71, with an image for the use of a testpoint... that means to actually tore apart the device and solder wires in it!!! No way:crying:

Last chance is the OTG adapter, I have one but I need to find the other cable to connect the USB on my PC
[General Questions and Answers] renojim:
I'm not having much luck with that Russian site. I don't have a problem with tearing open my A1-810, but does that test point thing only apply to the B1-A71? I also have an OTG cable somewhere, so I may give that a try as well.

-JT

P.S. - Man the rules here suck! I have to remove a link from a quote. I feel like I could be a lot more helpful if I wasn't thwarted every time I try to post.
[General Questions and Answers] cabalio83:
Yes, the picture is for reference, A1-810 may have something similar, it has non-removable battery and none of the button combos works, so I think it probably has a test point to tinker with... A no go for me right now
[General Questions and Answers] renojim:
Ok, I was able to take a look at the Russian site in a different browser. Like you said, the test point thing may apply to the A1-810. I don't know if I'll give it a try or not. I'm having no luck with loading the drivers to be able to even try SPflashtool. When I plug in my A1-810, it shows up briefly as MT65xx Preloader (or something like that), but then it goes away.

I'd rather try the OTG cable first, but unfortunately mine is miniUSB, not microUSB. :(

[General Questions and Answers] Calingo:
Non Removable Battery

Non removable battery is not the issue because I managed to unplug the battery of my acer iconia a1 810 and connect it to the pc but still got the same error more over the mtk preloaded keeps connecting and disconnecting again and again :rolleye: :eek: Frustated
[General Questions and Answers] renojim:
Has anyone tried an OTG cable yet? I have one on order, but it's on the slow boat from China. In looking at that "test point" for the B1-A71, I believe all it's doing is the same thing an OTG cable would do. I'd like to try a similar method on the A1-810, but the pin on the USB connector that one needs to short to ground is inaccessible unless the motherboard is removed and it looks pretty difficult to do that.

-JT
[General Questions and Answers] cabalio83:
I have an OTG cable, but you neeed male-to-male USB cable also to connect your PC USB to the USB OTG.

I haven't got any of these (why should I?... It would be completely pointless :D)

Anyway... I tried connecting like this with the stuff I got here ATM

Acer Iconia >> OTG cable >> USB cable male to micro USB male >> ASUS Tranformer (windows 8.1 tablet) in micro USB port.

Result: nothing. No vibration, no driver installation attempt bay windows. Probably micro USB is not meant for this.
[General Questions and Answers] renojim:
Well it seems like that should work if it was going to work. I guess the only other thing I'd try is with and without the battery in the Iconia connected.

[General Questions and Answers] cabalio83:
I meant, I tried the micro USB port in the tablet, but I don't know if a full-sized USB port would work instead ;)

Here's How I Managed To Flash My Tablet with SP Flash tool

For raw files see

Tried Flashing ACER ICONIA A1 810 With SP Flash Tool Using The Raw Data Provided

Works Like Charm But You Need Modified Version Of SP Flash Tool Which Is Compactiable With A1 810/811 And Rest Is On the Thread Or Here You Go

Download flashtool here: click, unpack and launch it.

Press "File" → "Open Scatter-loading file..." and choose scatter from firmware folder.

Now press "Window" → "Write Memory". One more tab will appear, open it.

Press "Open Raw data" and choose "secuoff.img" file from firmware folder.

Choose an EMMC Memory setting

Start Address: 0x3D80000

Copy value from "File Size (bytes)" to "Container Length"

Press "Write Memory", connect your turned-off tablet to PC. Progress bar will fill with red, then with gray-green, then you will see a green circle. Disconnect your tablet.

Go to Download tab, press "Download" and connect your turned-off tablet again. Progress bar will fill with red, (probably) then with purple, then with yellow, (probably) then with gray-green. After this you will see a green circle. Disconnect your A1-810 from PC and put it on charging for 10 minutes.

Thanks guys, another issue I have. I cant delete the photos taken from the camera. When I delete them and restart the phone, they are back again. But screenshots, WhatsApp images, those I am able to delete them, and they dont come back again. Why is this happening? Is the OS or maybe MicroSD?
[Xperia Z2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jeremy.shi:
I assume you set the camera to save photos on SD card. What app are you using to manage the photos?

Only the stock sony album app can delete photos on sd card due to a stupid restriction on Kitkat. Screenshots and whatsapp images are stored on your phone internal storage, that's why you can delete them but not your photos. As a ordinary user, I never understand why Google would impose such annoying restriction on SD card access from apps.

Ed,

hi, you would need to be able to get me the stock recovery.img for your device. However if the device has a locked bootloader, you won't

be able to use a custom recovery until someone developes a means to unlock it.

If you are determined, try my recovery build for the sm-t531 matisse3g which is located in the OP of sub77's Philz/Advance CWM thread.

Getting my phone tomorrow and am concerned reading several reviews saying it overheats? Is this a problem for anyone? How frequent does it occur? Should I be worried? Thank you in advance!
[Verizon LG G3] kameleongt:
I usually run my screen at 50 and I've had 2 times when I worried about temp. Once was when my text bogged up trying to send had 4 sending at same time. The phone began getting real hot I deleted text restarted phone then retyped text and temps dropped. Second time was when I went to send an email. Seemed like it took a while to send once it showed sent in my sent box the phone began to lower on temps. Both times this happens I was on WiFi and with losing net I switch from 3g and 4g all day. Not sure where the problem was but it went away quickly
[Verizon LG G3] Mistertac:
No problems like that on my end. Although most people don't realize that these smartphones can actually run pretty hot around 100 F or so and that's normal, although it is very unsettling feeling your $600 device get that hot.

I'd be curious to see people use something like System Monitor that shows what their phones are running at during the day.

Unless people are playing games or watching videos, the phone shouldn't be that bad, people probably could do a little better job of debloating and hibernating things and their phones wouldn't get so hot... Just my opinion though!

- Sent From My G3
[Verizon LG G3] postal302:
x2. Any heavy processing load will cause it to get hot, when the processor kicks into high gear a lot of electricity runs through it and will raise the temp a significant amount. This is normal and nothing to worry about. Processors are typically designed with temperature controls which will slow the processor down when it gets too hot. You don't have anything to worry about.

Plus, if something does happen to your phone you would be covered by warranty and insurance if you have it.

I've been looking around and reading, and it seems as though I need to use the fastboot command and flash the correct partitions.

About an hour, the connection will stop and the wireless modem app will stop (we need to click 'start' b4 connect to the usb port in the first place), and the dopod 838pro will perform active sysnc instead.
