Hello!

Another B1-730 NON HD user here, they are VERY cheap in Brazil!!

I bought and I'm waiting it to arrive, I hope I can root 4.4 sucessfully.

Is is NON HD fail proof it something goes wrong, did someone riped the system files and do we have tools to recover it?

Can I help on something, like extracting system files to help others in the future?

Thanks!
[General Questions and Answers] vampir74:

Just asking how did you do about Adobe Flash. I had same issue, but with latest version of Puffin Browser works fine ( I use 11.1.115.81 Flash version )
[General Questions and Answers] mr-excalibur:
flash works

did you try 'desktop mode'

page reloads, and some players load differently...

opera Android

Firefox

chrome

really work!!

i cant remember where i got my working versions from...

i installed a flash player specially for x86

i copied some .ko files to system

and now flash works,... sometimes i have to go to desktop mode (mobile page has 3gp or mp4) but those normally work too...

YouTube website works sometimes only in desktop mode for example...

just saying...

Although you say this works for you and you have had success in doing so your way does not mean that it will work for everyone. Every tablet from different countries seems to have a little something different and sometimes that little bit of difference seems to make a huge difference in the way things are able to be done. With that said as I mentioned before the information you provided does NOT work for my tablet and it is a Non-HD B1-730 with Android 4.4.2 KitKat Rooted and still yet to date I have NOT be able to get flash to work on it no matter what I do no matter what browser I use nothing works and Desktop mode makes no difference. At least not with any item that is free as posted in one of my other posts.

I am not sure if you guys of the OP have this update or if it is of any interests to you but I have put it here to see if it will help at all. This is an update for the Non-HD B1-730 KitKat 4.4.2 not an upgrade from JB to KK.

Could just be a faulty charger if they're different if that is the case.

No Acer is 5.35v @2a.

[General Questions and Answers] jahubar:
Hi buddy, recently I downgraded from KitKat to JB with Acer Repair Tool 2.0, which worked fine. Later however I decided to revert back to Kitkat, so I tried flashing the Kitkat firmware using fastboot. But I made a stupid mistake by flashing the custom boot image I got off the net. (Later I realized my tablet has locked bootlader :( ) Now whenever I turn on my tablet it displays the Intel Inside logo for a few seconds and automatically goes to stock recovery. When I plug it into the charger it doesn't display the battery icon anymore, it just go straight to recovery. I cant get into fastboot anymore to flash the correct boot.img. How do I get fastboot working again? Pls help :crying:

Huge Mistake

Hi everybody!

I´ve used the Repair tool listed on the front page of the post, it ran without issues, but after it finished my device stuck at the "Acer ... Powered by ANDROID" initial screen...

The mistake was: my device is not the HD version!!

Now the device do not start, and when i try enter the recovery mode (power+down volume), all text is shown garbled, possibly due to the resolution difference between devices.

I'm totally new to this, and did everithing everyone says not do do: do it at your own risk. The risk here is directly related to the stupidity of who is trying the procedure...:crying:

Can anyone help me?

Thanks.

Robson

Edit:

I've forgot to mention: i have another tablet of the same model, maybe i can use it to extract the system image, if anyone can point me the direction...

[General Questions and Answers] vampir74:
No way
[General Questions and Answers] wyldkat:
To update: unroot using supersu app, download the stock rom from Acer's support webpage, follow the steps included in the zip (which is simply renaming the zip inside the other zip to update.zip, copy it to a SD card, boot to recovery and flash, followed by a wipe data), boot into normal mode, check for updates, install update and then root again if you want.

I did this and I'm with the latest rom, but wireless seems worse.
[General Questions and Answers] wilberfish:
Any other changes with the update?
[General Questions and Answers] travster119:
Could you link me to the page where I can download the Rom, can't find it on there page anywhere for some reason.
[General Questions and Answers] wyldkat:
Official "changelog" says: This upgrade improves performance and fixes bugs

I've noticed: Google Keep and Google News & Weather are now system apps, service.jar was updated and a few other lib changes.

From here: us.acer.com/ac/en/US/content/driver write B1-730HD on Search by Product Model, then click O.S. on the bottom and there should be a download button with "Acer.AV0K0.B1-730HD.RV03RC01.WW.GEN1".
[General Questions and Answers] travster119:
Thanks, also I have some system apps uninstalled, will this still work?
[General Questions and Answers] wyldkat:
It probably will, since the zip you download from Acer is 800Mb+, it should restore your system partition to factory state.
