I managed to make it work,

No idea how. I'm worried about that Knox logo these days, but we'll..

Thanks!
[Magisk] Spartacus500:
Sorry to be just now, but to the point of solution to this,

1. Install the disable services app and disable a process called "S17"

2. Done 👍🙂
[Huawei Mate 10  Questions & Answers] theplayingdead:
Hi all! My camera app has been disastrous after EMUI 10. After opening the app camera resets itself every few seconds and it is not the focus. Camera visual just comes and goes as you can see in the video below. I have tried other camera apps and they work fine so I don't think it is hardware related. I don't want to make a factory reset just for this issue. Any idea is appreciated. Thanks!

How can I unlock the bootloader on my rooted Huawei Y541-U02 Without the unlock code, I want to flash magisk, am unable to buy the code because it costs nearly as much as the phone
[General Questions and Answers] Raiz:
Hi,

Actually, since Huawei doesn't support that officially, the unlock methods are paid, as you said. I just wanted to warn you that even if you had the money to do that, those methods are sketchy, you have no guarantee of success, and the higher the price will be, the greater your chances of getting scammed will be. If you absolutely need to root your Android device, buy a new one.

Hope you still have a good day lol

[Acer Iconia A500] Worldblender:
UPDATE: I discontinued work for this tablet model, due to the lack of NEON support for the Nvidia Tegra 2 CPU used in this model. Any existing work I uploaded will remain online, but I won't be uploading anything new. I'm also considering selling my tablet to anyone interested.

I have become successful with getting postmarketOS to run on this tablet for the past 2 months, running mainline Linux (5.8.0 as of this writing). This allows us to use this tablet model for a little longer, without getting stuck on older Linux kernel versions.

postmarketOS is an experimental, touch-optimized and pre-configured Alpine Linux. It can be installed on smartphones and other devices.

About postmarketOS, from their homepage:

Wiki page for this tablet: https://wiki.postmarketos.org/wiki/Acer_Iconia_Tab_A500_(acer-picasso)

Most features should work, except for the camera and 3D acceleration. Wi-Fi and Bluetooth work only if the non-free firmware is chosen to be installed.

How to install:

Follow the installation guide at https://wiki.postmarketos.org/wiki/Installation_guide, where theses specifics have to be specified when requested (this device is now in upstream pmaports):

Vendor: acer

Device code-name: picasso

Install non-free Wi-Fi + Bluetooth firmware: y

Only the mainline kernel is available for installation now, as downstream kernels no longer successfully compile. The user interface may be freely selected, as long as it is not one that requires 3D acceleration. To use KDE Plasma 5, add these lines to /etc/security/pam_env.conf:

QT_IM_MODULE=qtvirtualkeyboard
QT_QUICK_BACKEND=software
LIBGL_ALWAYS_SOFTWARE=1

Next, run the following commands in succession, after each one finishes, assuming the working directory contains the pmbootstrap.py script:

> ./pmbootstrap.py build device-acer-picasso
> ./pmbootstrap.py build firmware-acer-picasso
> ./pmbootstrap.py build linux-postmarketos-grate

From here on out, the generated chroot can be either installed to the eMMC, or a microSD card that must be inserted at or before boot time (the latter method allows for dual-booting Android already installed to the eMMC, although it can be directly accessed from the Linux system). The boot partition always has to be flashed to the eMMC in fastboot mode, as it is not possible to boot directly off of a microSD card.

If installing to the eMMC, run

> ./pmbootstrap.py install
> ./pmbootstrap.py flasher flash_kernel --partition secboot
> ./pmbootstrap.py flasher flash_rootfs
(optional) > ./pmbootstrap.py flasher boot

If installing to a microSD card, run

> ./pmbootstrap.py install --sdcard [path to the device for installation]
> ./pmbootstrap.py flasher flash_kernel --partition secboot

Depending on what user interface was chosen earlier in the installation process, there may not be enough packages installed to get a fully-loaded GUI. Besides the built-in Wi-Fi, it is also possible to use a USB ethernet adapter, or connect to another computer with a micro-USB cable and get RNDIS access that enables using SSH to the tablet.
[Acer Iconia A500] Worldblender:
Using another distro in place of postmarketOS

Advanced: Using another distro in place of postmarketOS

It is possible, if using the microSD card method, to use a different distro instead of postmarketOS, for those who want more software OOTB. I use the Ubuntu MATE rootfs from https://ubuntu-mate.org/ports/raspberry-pi/ as my daily driver, but other distros may take more effort to get working. Glibc limitations no longer apply, as the kernel version is no longer stuck at 3.1.0 (unlike with my earlier attempts). Carefully follow the instructions listed below, or the resulting system will become unbootable:

Use losetup or GNOME Disks (Utility) to mount the image in read-write mode.

Run GParted with the loop image and the target microSD card as the arguments.

Copy only the larger rootfs partition to the microSD card. Resize as necessary to get it to fit on the target microSD card.

Make sure on the target microSD card the boot partition is named 'pmOS_boot' and the rootfs 'pmOS_root'. The initramfs is hard-coded to search for partitions with these names by default for microSD cards. The loop image is not needed after this point, and can be safely detached.

On the copied rootfs, edit /etc/fstab to reflect the partition layout. To get access to Wi-Fi and Bluetooth, copy the kernel modules and firmware from the pmOS rootfs on the host system to the microSD rootfs.

Let me know if something wasn't understood from my instructions, or more clarification is needed. The instructions here can be somewhat overwhelming for those who have less Linux experience, but at least we're not forced to stay on old distro versions anymore.
[Acer Iconia A500] tehno:
hey Worldblender,

I have flashed the premade file you shared to an sdcard but I'm unsure as to how to boot into it?
[Acer Iconia A500] Worldblender:
The instructions were written assuming that the user has already flashed the custom bootloader as described here: https://xdaforums.com/iconia-a500/a500-2019-2020-t4039271. Sorry for not making this clear anywhere, but that custom bootloader, along with flashing the boot image found in the first partition named "pmOS_boot" to either boot or secboot using fastboot, should get you set up to boot the SD card image.
[Acer Iconia A500] chrisdroid33:
Hi Worldblender,

Nice to see you work on this legacy device.

I definitely don't want to use android or can use it anymore on this tablet.

Nice to see some linux flavor being ported to it.

I had a look a the dedicated page on postmarketos.

Can you confirm the only GUI availbale as for now is the one called "Weston" ?

Or is MATE also working (from the screenshot) ?

Weston seem very basic, MATE more friendly.

How about performance ?

I'm considering reusing it to display a grafana dashboard in firefox for instance, maybe more if performance isn't too bad.
[Acer Iconia A500] coluwyvurne:
Thank you Worldblender for your work in writing up instructions and compiling the image too.

However, I'm still a bit lost as to what to do with your Ubuntu Mate image.

I've gotten the TWRP bootloader installed onto my Acer A500 tablet, but whether I use Rufus to expand your image onto an SD card, or just copy the compressed image onto the SD card, the [ Install ] does not see any images inside of the drive. Am I supposed to decompress your image in Windows and use the 0.img and 1.img in place of the nvflash's boot.img and recovery.img?

While I can see the two partitions in Ubuntu, I'm equally lost as to what to do with them, and how to get it onto the tablet.
[Acer Iconia A500] Worldblender:
Wait for me to give out an update to the image, as there likely has been a new kernel version released that I would like to have updated first.

TWRP will not be used at all for this installation process, as the image is too big to flash with fastboot. Just flash the image to a microSD card, as the boot image that will be flashed will automatically pick it up shortly after booting. The only thing that does have to be flashed is the boot.img, which can be found in the first partition, and you will be only using fastboot for this process, not anything else.
[Acer Iconia A500] Worldblender:
I released a new version of the premade Ubuntu MATE image just now, named 'ubuntu-mate-20.04.1-desktop-armhf+acer-picasso.img.xz'. The following changes have been made since the last image:

Kernel version upgraded to 5.10.1-rc1

Based on Ubuntu MATE 20.04.1

Everything that changed since the beta1 image

Other than these changes, there are no other differences that can be noticed right away.

[Acer Iconia A500] whylly:
Many thanks for your work. I've entered today this forum just curious about something new and found this!

Second life for this old machine!

For those with problems installing, I've flashed precompiled image using balenaEtcher into the sdcard.

Then, extracted .xz image, extracted .img, then extracted 0.img and copied boot file from there. After that, renamed the file to boot.img and flashed it with fastboot.

As I've the old modified skrillex bootloader, the command is fastboot flash secboot boot.img.

It boots and works well for now!

Hi, i apt updated after adding grate-driver ppa, it seems it broken xorg because X don't start anymore

Can you detail how to proceed ?
[Acer Iconia A500] Worldblender:
Can you still switch to a virtual terminal with Ctrl-Alt-[F1-F7]? You will need a USB keyboard to do this. Then try, after logging in with your username and password:

systemctl stop lightdm
startx

If startx does not bring something up, could you try running journalctl, and show me any log entries relating to lightdm?

If that still fails, you can try (if ppa-purge is not installed, install that first)

ppa-purge ppa:grate-driver/ppa

Note that after following the instructions for installing the Ubuntu MATE image from @Worldblender from a starting point of just the stock image, I have Ubuntu MATE installed on the external SD card and no OS installed on the eMMC because it was wiped during the bootloader replacement. Reading back through the posts suggests this is by design.
[Acer Iconia A500] Bazil03:
@Worldblender, so I'm very new at rooting devices, and have a little experience with Ubuntu but feel pretty lost. Any chance you could hook me up with a step by step install of the Nov2 image (unless you've put together another new version) from a stock(not rooted or anything) A500? I apologize if I overlooked something.

Edit: I got it working after doing this thing called reading, I definitely overlooked some things after reading closer. For someone else that might find themselves in my shoes here's what I did.

Hi there ! I have an iconia a500, rooted with lightspeed 4.8. Can I install this and then make it switch to Khali linux ? My ultimate objective is to get Khali on this tablet. I've worked my way down from ver 2.5x linuxdeploy all the way down to 2.0 lol So I'm thinking maybe if I apply your OS it will update the Kernal from 4.0.3 to 5 yes ? (That's a big jump for linuxdeploy) then I can apt-get khalifull ? Am I off base would this work ? Unless you have an image already of course in which case pleaaaaaaaaaaaaaase I'll pay for the bloody thing if I have to I've been pulling my hair out for days. Tried frikkin everything.

Unless anybody has a better method of course in which case feel free to suggest. If I have to make the image from scratch so be it

EDIT: UGhhhhhh after days of troubleshooting, I got to linuxdeploy2.0-1.16 installed kali (the native one on the app not from the repository as that gives kernel too old once you get the install working). Managed to term in and tried to start lxde, failed because lxde doesn't exist (sigh) tried to apt-get... kernel too old. game over sigh :(

Unless someone has a workaround I don't think it's possible to get Khali on a500.

It is possible to get Kali Linux running, if you change the sources.list repositories, and then upgrade all the packages available. Though it may take a considerable amount of time to complete.

Thank you @Worldblender for the wonderful work. My A500 has been gathering dust for a long while and I've been itching to stick Linux on it. As I have TWRP and Omnirom installed on it, I think it should be possible to follow the guides from postmarketos and here without issues, no?

What Linux distro do you recommend with this? I'm thinking xfce might provide decent performance as it's a lightweight DE. Any thoughts?

Hi Guys,

I wanted to bring back to life my old iconia and I failed with the following error message, after booting:

postmarketOS

rootfs not found

What I have done:

1. I image a sdcard with the file ubuntu-mate-20.04.1-desktop-armhf+acer-picasso.img.xz on linux

xzcat ubuntu-mate-20.04.1-desktop-armhf+acer-picasso1.img.xz | dd of=/dev/sdd bs=64k oflag=dsync status=progress

2. Got sdcard with two partitions:

pmOS_boot

pmOS_root

3. fastboot flash a file "boot.img-postmarketos-grate" found on the 1st partition to secboot

4. Insert the newly created sdcard (in step 1) into iconia and reboot it with second image

5. got rootfs not found

What did go wrong?

Any recommendation is highly appreciated - thank you!

[Acer Iconia A500] Zarosky:
first you have to flash the kernel from fastboot, the postmarket kernel, for that you have to follow this guide

do not install rootfs, just install the kernel, the rootfs is in the microsd with those two partitions, pmos_boot and pmos_rootfs, after flashing the kernel, when you start it gives you two primary and secondary options, the secondary one is postmarket

Today, I have a new image uploaded for Arch Linux ARM, as an alternative to the Ubuntu MATE image. Details:

Arch Linux ARM (ArchLinuxARM-armv7-latest+acer-picasso.img.xz) (size: 598.8 MiB):

Based on 'ArchLinuxARM-armv7-latest.tar.gz', available from https://archlinuxarm.org/about/downloads

Kernel version: 5.14.0-rc1

Includes all compiled kernel modules from postmarketOS builds, plus nonfree firmware enabled.

Rolling release distro often with the latest versions of most packages. More recent software can be acquired at a small expense of instability.

Requires at least an 2 GB or greater size microSD card (the image is 1.9 GiB decompressed). Larger size is recommended for installing more packages.

Initially command-line only; contains no desktop environment installed.

To login into this system:

Login as the default user alarm with the password alarm.

The default root password is root.

The Ubuntu MATE image kernel is still on 5.10.0-rc1, as the sound chip not being detected with newer kernel versions has prevented me from completing the upgrade.​

The Archlinux armv7 image still not had tty console keyboard/fbkeyboard yet, right!?

Can you install it include to image?
[Acer Iconia A500] Worldblender:
It's just a bare image, the workaround is to use a USB keyboard for the time being. There shouldn't be as much issues since it's a full-size type-A port.

Sadly, I don't know of the packages that provide virtual keyboards for use on TTYs yet, since they are never seen on consumer phones and tablets (too technical for most tech-illiterate people).
[Acer Iconia A500] Baonks81:
It's here

tty keyboard core https://github.com/Daniel-Abrecht/console-keyboard-basic

tty keyboard lib https://github.com/Daniel-Abrecht/libttymultiplex
[Acer Iconia A500] Worldblender:
I see now. I would have to build from source the package, but I would prefer that I can make a proper package for the virtual keyboard. The image is just based off of the generic one that can run on other ARM computers, most often single-board computers that will likely have a USB keyboard attached.
