Thanks blackthunder. It's our personal device, my wife set the password some time back and is sure she hasn't forgotten but for some reason it's not being accepted. We can't figure out why! I have the original receipt and box etc in case anyone's interested! :D

I tried the stock ICS Rom by naming it update.zip and rebooting into recovery, but that gets stuck at the Android guy logo immediately. Also tried 3.2 before that via a link from this page, and that seems to work until the progress bar hits about 80%. Then it just reboots back to the dreaded locked screen. From what I understand I can only do a reinstall of the same ROM version that's currently installed? We have a password lock on it, and not pattern. Would highly appreciate any help. . Really want this thing to start working again. It's practically new [emoji20]

Your beat bet is using an EUUs package to wipe the tablet and reset back to 3.0.1 then use Flash Tool to get CWM or TWRP + a decent ROM
[Acer Iconia A500] sskhaliq:
To install EUUs, is it the same process; rebooting with power+volume and flashing via SD card? What version EUUs do you think I need, currently I have 3.2 installed. Is there a guide for above?... will be a lot of help. Many thanks
[Acer Iconia A500] blackthund3r:
Actually, even easier.....use the APX Flash Tool to get yourself a CWM Image (you'll need your SBK....there's a fair few guides on obtaining this) then do a wipe data/factory reset within CWM.

From there it's fairly easy to side load the latest Acer ROM.
[Acer Iconia A500] sskhaliq:
Thanks. I'll try it out over the weekend! Appreciate your help!
[Acer Iconia A500] sskhaliq:
God morning! For the apx tool, I'm not sure if USB debugging option is selected, never ticked that myself consciously. Is it OK to go ahead?
[Acer Iconia A500] sskhaliq:
Tried using the apx tool after downloading the Acer USB drivers and in short no luck. :(

Had to go the manual route for flashing since I don't have USB debugging enabled.

Tried two packages, one honeycomb bundle 6 and then also tried a later one for ICS.

It goes thru the motions enters APX mode with confirmation as well on the tab screen, without any hiccups right to the end. But then reboots to the old dastardly lock screen asking for password!

Any ideas? Already backed up using mobo app so am OK to wipe clean and start anew.

Options for upgrading an Acer A500: Acer_A500_4.010.15_COM_GEN1

OK, heres a totally noob question. I have an Acer A500 I bought used. It has been rooted apparently. Has the ClockWorkMod bootloader installed, v5.0.

My question is, what are my options to upgrade this tablet and is there a thread with instructions on which firmware files to use, how far can I go with upgrading the A500 (ICS?). Not really looking to trick it out and go the whole mod route, would be happy with stock firmware, just looking to make it a little more up to date and, above all _stable_! The main issue I have with it now is the wifi craps out every month or so and I have to do a refresh and wipe all info and start over.

I used to get prompted to install a system update, and every time, it would fail with the dead Android dude on his back....so sad. Now, it just tells me, "Network Coverage is poor, please move to a location with better coverage". I am sitting right beside my router...

Here are the relevant specs:

Model number: A500

Build number: Acer_A500_4.010.15_COM_GEN1

Kernel version: 2.6.36.3

If you need any other info in order to help, just let me know.

Thank you very much in advance for any advice!!

No sound during call

This might be one of the best kernels for the 4.4 roms out there but it has just one problem in my device : there's no sound during calls. This happens only when I have Boeffla , as soon as I flash another kernel the sound fixes. I have tried uninstalling Boeffla Config and running the kernel without it but it's the same. How to solve this ? Thank you.

Hi,

make sure your init.d folder does not contain left overs of other kernels.

Especially when you were on Agni Pure before, this is a known issue as it overwrites Boeffla-Settings in an incompatible way.

Hello.

In NIK60 ROM v.3.0 (4.4.4) I installed Kernel Boeffla 6 Beta 6 with the latest Boeffla Config V2 with Boeffla Config change the values and ​​to reset the phone's settings Governor, the Governor's profile and Internal memory back to their default values ​​pegasusq, standard and CFQ. The other parameters I've changed if maintained.

Where can be the problem? I have proven to Beta 5 and with different versions of Boeffla Config and the result is the same.

Sorry for my bad English.

Thank you
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] andip71:
Must have something to do with the rom.

It seems like

- either you have scripts init.d that overwrite the settings

- you have another app that resets this stuff again

- the rom start takes extremely long (you can give additional startup delay in boeffla-configs settings for a try)

Unfortunately there is no way to do a better diagnose without having your phone in hands.

But... there are reasons why I recommend going on pretty clean roms like JustArchis Port. There these kind of things do not happen.

[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] andip71:
I am sorry, but I have no time to try all sort of roms. That's what you users need to do.

I officially do not support the roms you mentioned, only Archiport. So, if all works, fine. But if not, it is like it is.

Especially on the 6.x kernel series I do give only very limited support as it is kinda inofficial and experimental kernel only.

If it worked fine on Blekota 8.0 and not on 8.1 anymore, it is quite obvious something changed which broke some functionality. But as said, I cannot support all roms around as my day only has 24 hours :(

ALL: Google is again playing games and locked down the first of my 3 donation apps in Playstore. Of course no compelling reason provided.

But as I already prepared for that half a year ago, I would like to remind you to use your personal unlock key to gain donation functionalities.

If you have not yet generated (this can be done in the donation app itself) and entered it into Boeffla-Config, it is now urgent to do that!!!

I cannot ensure Google will not lock down the other two donation apps as well soon, so you should be prepared now.

From my side, next Boeffla-Config app version will not support these donation apps anymore but only personal unlock codes.

Also, I will replace remaining donation apps in Playstore very soon (today or tomorrow) with a dummy app that tell users to get in touch with me manually.

Verizon Galaxy S3 i9300 Dual Core Snapdragon S4

Hello mates,

Am new here but have been an avid hard core droid user following XDA threads closely. Am currently using a Verizon Galaxy S3 GT-i9300 with Dual core snapdragon S4 krait processor (1.5Ghz&2GB Ram with LTE) running on 4.3. My simple Question is, will this Boeffla kernel work on this device. I was also looking to get better battery life by flashing the official Port of 4.4.4 Kitkat for i9300 by arter97. Now am quite hesitant going ballistic on the device. Does these developments for the Quad core Exynos work the same on the Dual core i9300?

Kindly Help. Regards

Thanks a lot for clarifying that Boeffla. Reason I posted this is for the reason that the device model is still i9300.

Because this is broken by default without doing lots of changes to LPM mode handling.

I might look into it one day, but it really has no big priority. Why? I explained it very often - I never switch off my phone to charge it. So I have no big driver to invest lots of time to change this as I do not need it myself.

Maybe, when I can cherry-pick something from other devs, I could change this without spending lots of time on it (which is something I really want to avoid here).
