new repair tool

cool!

will it also fix the battery status?

Just verified... full recharge after last forced shut down(empty) did not bring the battery calibr. to normal on my kitkat tab..

it is loading...but shows empty battery...

now it shows 14% but runs the whole day

when battery 'works' it jumps from 100 to 80 in 2 minutes...stays on 70% the whole day and drops dead/off on 7%...

App2SD on 4.4 and 4.2

Hi Folks,

is there any way to get app2sd working on Acer Iconia B1 730HD?

I tried on 2 Devices:

Android 4.2, rooted -> didn't work

Android 4.4 rooted -> didn't work

I even tried link2SD an Foldermount, but i think the Sub-Folders (for Games and Apps) are hidden.

DS App2SD told:

"Current device may not support App2SD function.

Some ROM Versions has disabled/damaged App2SD function."

The Link-to-Sd function even isn't initialised after rebot.

Dos anybody have a hint?

[General Questions and Answers] mr-excalibur:
folder mount works!

folder mount works! when you have root - you can access everything!

obb of games are in: sdcard0/Android /obb

you select the single folder of a game inside the obb folder on emulated sdcard0 and create a pair to a place inside a folder on real sd card sdcard1... folder mount asks if it should copy the folder and there you go...

(not every app has a folder in obb!)

myself : i mounted some data folders from sdcard0/Android /data - it works!

theoretically you can also mount a folder from root/data/data

folder mount warns you, you agree when you go outside the predefined path...

but you should be careful and copy the content yourself! select no, copy content and only when done.... enable mount (green pin) verify if working - - > app runs as expected (and don't asks you to download the data again (games)...

It's been disabled since the OTA patch from 4.2.2. removing all apps ability to write to external SDCard's.

[General Questions and Answers] noregnoone:
DS App2SD finally worked on 4.4.2 but something bricked 4.2

Thank you for your answers,

after experimenting with folder mount and other apps, App2SD finally worked on the 4.4 device in the "link2SD" Mode, after i splitted the external SD and made a second partition (ext4, primary).

After mounting this partition reboot i was able to move several big apps to the external storage.

On the 4.2 device the Link-to-SD function didnt't work, so i thought it could be a 4.2 issue and i tried the OTA Update to 4.4.

But the OTA update failed and i tried the repair tool an flashed the rooted 4.4 image.

'It seemed to be okay, but after reboot got stuck in the acer splash screen (powered by android).

I tried cache clearing in the normal reovery mode and reflashing several times, but it still got stuck.

Can you please help me? (haven't told my wife yet :p)

You will need the system.img file in the home-folder of your SD-card.

Sorry to bother you again but i had problems on the tablet you fixed tonight.

normal Programms seems to run fine but games show grafik errors (angry birds transformers) or didn't start (beach buggy racing)

These games run fine on the other tablet

could it be a problem with the optimization (busybox e.g.) ?

just bought two B1-730 (NON-HD -display 600x1024). it won't bluetooth tether to my phone. Apparently the tablet only has A2DP bluetooth profile per the manual. I tried tethering on a samsung galaxy tab 4 7" (also with Kit Kat 4.4.2) and after pairing to phone and then going to my phone in the galaxy's bluetooth menu, it gives me option of using this device for internet connection. tap yes and works! So if I root, will I have this ability? If can't do tethering, then they have to go back. On the Go from the micro USB would be nice too. I am new to android and have never rooted. hard to read 42 pages so if rooting will work I need a starting point please.

download supersu recovery installer place it on your devices internal sdcard or external_sd

Downloaded and extract the file I posted above run the batch file inside if your on KitKat option T3 is probably your best bet if successful a temporary CWM Recovery Session should be started select install from sdcard and select the supersu zip you placed on the sdcard once complete reboot.

On some devices have full /system partitions so you may or may not have to install the supersu.apk from play store.

[General Questions and Answers] mr-excalibur:
bluetooth ftp, opp,pbap works - Wifi AP works (no internet!/ but filesharing)

1.

i discovered that you need to install additional software to extend the tablets bluetooth profiles...

bluetooth file transfer (free) comes with its own obex layer and adds (only when app is running (turn off or background):

- File Transfer Profile (FTP)

- Object Push Profile (OPP)

- Phone Book Access Profile (PBAP)

Without the app i was able to pair with the tablet but all files i sended never arrived... with the app they arrive ( are dropped in sdcard1 (not in a folder, on root/sdcard1)

2. The tablet has a tethering menu is (hidden) because tethering on a non-3g device is useless (no internet you could share ^^)

But for me it is still interesting:

1. besides my win 8 i still have an Xp pc - Xp cant set up a virtual Hotspot-only adhoc-> not possible to connect with android- so the tab has to be hotspot

2. device to device fast wifi file sharing

3. wifi to wifi calling / mesh networking

( serval mesh - mesh mode doesnt work yet but Hotspot mode (or you pimp one or more routers to a mesh ) - assign the tab a number and call / msg (works also when connected to same router)

4. running a full webserver (palapa, free) on the tab - everyone can connect to the tab and 'surf' on my "local" websites...:)

to get to the tether menu;

-i can start a hotspot in Es Explorer

/ left menu -> network manager (wirhout internet sharing) on my tab

- and then connect my pc or my smartphone to it...

-set a new ftp server on one of the devices

(on tab if i want to copy FROM tab/ browse tab)

(on phone (also in es explorer) if i copy files from phone)

(remote manager / left menu in es -> turn ON)

- on the other device:

- if pc-> enter ftp://...your ip..:3271 in explorer

- on android: use es explorer on both/

on the other: go to network add new ftp -> set ip and add

(each time you start the Hotspot the ip changes!! so change the ip on the other device - in es: long hold the new ftp, and click change settings - change ip)

- you can copy over wifi
[General Questions and Answers] hammerjr:
ok, read all 43 pages. thought I had it figured out but is what you are describing above completely different method of rooting compared to what vampir74 has mentioned before?

and after last post about Bluetooth profiles I wonder will I be able to Bluetooth tether using PAN profile if I root (my B1-730 doesn't have that profile). will I have to install separate app after rooting to tether?

I have stock B1-730 16GB version (non-HD). recently you guys wanted a dump. if you still need I will do if you tell me how.
[General Questions and Answers] social-design-concepts:
well i can only comment on the root method :

most of the stuff I had in myKIT_BATCH wasn't used and while some things in it were needed at some point over this past year most of it just made the root process harder for people so i stripped most everything out of myKIT_BATCH and created a new tool that focused on the Tethered CWM Recovery Trigger which is what the root methed of myKIT_BATCH evolved into.

you now just need to place supersu zip on the internal or external scard and launch the tethered CWM Recovery and install supersu just like you would in a normal 3rd party recovery.

The Tethered CWM Recovery is a temporary recovery session it has to be started from a pc each time you need to use it that's why its called ( tethered recovery launcher )

Bluetooth dun / pan problems

i don't need this, but i was curious....

i have root, and tried different Bluetooth Dun (dial up network tether) and Pan (personal area network) apps...

first approach : use DUN profile for a reverse tethering vpn tunnel

BlueDun app requires Tun.ko - > tun. ko installer checks it and says "already present...."

BUT: kitkat 4.4 has a bug in the VPN mode (not completely, because i used it already for connection to university vpn without problems... but something in the vpn feature seems to be broken... all the openVpn, Bluetooth vpn apps fail...

second approach : use PAN profile

blue Pan app: installs and can start the service but i can't connect it to my smartphone with Bluetooth tethering... ? maybe it works and im just doing something wrong?!

doesn't matter for me, i don't need Bluetooth tethering anymore, almost every modern phone can do wifi tethering, and Windows ( since 7) can do virtual Hotspots - even for sharing umts dongle / "Surfstick" Internet (Connectify ! can do that and some free aps too)

why do you need Bluetooth dun / pan? you could also (if you don't want to buy a wifi tethering capable phone) buy a cheap portable 3g router or buy a even cheaper 3g dongle and share that Internet over wifi (windows 7, Windows 8, most Linux, i think mac too?!??)
[General Questions and Answers] hammerjr:
I use bluetooth PAN all the time to connect my windows 8.1 tablet to internet when I am out. (waiting for kids at music lesson, basketball practice, work since they have strong security and restrict sites, etc. ) My phone does USB but that won't work on this tablet either. It does Wifi hotspot, but the network it creates is ad-hoc and android can't see it and even if I enter manually it won't connect. My 8.1 won't either (apparently it did in 8 but doesn't in 8.1) You can get it to work in 8.1 with some command lines but was easier in 7.
[General Questions and Answers] mr-excalibur:
Ok i see the problem...

Android stopped supporting ad hoc networks for security reasons some time ago...

you could try a: usb reverse tethering app (get Internet from other device (phone) via cable)

or use a cheap portable 3g modem (Huawei, with battery) (the phone & tablets connect all to it)

or use the windows 8.1 tab (if it has usb ports) with some huawei 3g dongle.... and then share that via virtual wifi to all other devices (iconia tab, and more...) - its a bit redundant to use a (big) tablet as a hot-spot for another tablet... (you could use the windows tab...) except that you could use more devices over 1 sim card...

btw: virtal wifion the windows 8.1 works, but only after enabling the mode (once)

to enable the virtual wifi in windows 8.1 you have to use an Administrator Command Line first! to Enable the mode.... Then the apps like connectify pro (paid) or wifi hotspot work... (after enabling the mode...you could make 2 small batch scripts on desktop to start the virtual AP, and to stop it... )

i upgraded from win 8 to 8.1 and thought i doesnt work anymore... until i realized that I have to unlock the features with an admin cmd first... :-/ now connectify pro works with 1 Click from tray to share my 3g to pcs, phone & tablet

ps. maybe your phone can do more? instead of ad-hoc maybe ap mode tethering? with an additional app... symbian and java apps exists for that

Sophisticated Workaround :

it is also possible to reverse tether from tablet hotspot to xp pc Internet (tab as hotspot, xp as client) never tried that back in the days....

BUT if your Phone can share the internet as ad hoc wifi... maybe it can do the tethering in background.... while you are connected to the hotspot on the tablet (as a client) - check this xda thread about reverse tethering through android hotspot (android as hotspot, without Internet... pc as client with internet = internet on android :) ) http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1529540

here is where I am at.

I downloaded the two files and transferred UPDATE-SuperSU-vX.Xx.zip file to the SD card (which is formatted for FAT32) I left in zipped as that is what your instructions seemed to imply and it would be unzipped later. the other file IntelAndroid-FBRL.7z I extracted it on my windows 7 PRo 64 bit computer. I also manually installed the driver from ACER site and that seemed fine and the tablet shows up correctly when connected.

On tablet I tried hitting the build info 7 times to enter developer mode to turn on USB debugging. nothing happened. I connected tablet to computer and when I disconnected it and went to close the settings page on the tablet it was different and I could see USB debugging? so I checked it.

I shut off tablet and connected it to computer. when charging icon showed I ran the batch file and typed accept then T3. nothing happened. I turned tablet on and waited for boot, then typed T3 again and it ran and tablet ran something. Only took a second and left with screen on tablet to select reboot droidboot, reboot, recovery. I selected reboot and it started normally. now when I went to settings about tablet and build number and tapped it seven times it said you are now developer. so something worked but it is not rooted as terminal client gave me a $ instead of a #. I never extracted that file supersu? was I supposed to hit recovery?

remember I am completely new to this stuff so sorry if these seem like stupid questions.
[General Questions and Answers] mr-excalibur:
on my rooted phone & tablet the terminal emulator still has the $...

if your device has the supersu app it is rooted and supersu should work! (you can verify that easily with a free root checker app from playstore...)

you click check....and a dialog should pop up that the app ...root checker... request root acces. you give the permission and the root checker app says: rooted! :)
