Thx jknut, i'm such a noob I forgot to post the changelog. I usually wait till theres a uruk version, but i'm gonna install now cause i'm fairly sure we'll get uruk in a couple of days.

Not that much of a noob, you posted the link to the firmware that should end my buggy horrors
Thanks jknut for the changelog

Hi, I have one question.
If I have the permanent root from churli (I'm sorry if I miss-spelled it..), do I just updated it regularly? I used to update all the firmwares by just downloading the firmware right on my A70 and install it right away.. but will that work if I have the root? I just rooted my A70 yesterday...and I'm a newbie haha

I just followed Steps 2, 3, 4 of Chulri's post. Chulri already has the new files for "fw 2.3.26 +rw" for Step 3. I like the optional Step 4 because I don't have to worry about holding down the volume button everytime I boot to get root.

Hi,
Has somebody tested this new release?
I updated to version 3.2.20 last week and I was very happy when I realized that cinema plugin was not required to play all the formats which I was not able to before the update (AAC, AC3, MPEG2, etc)
Can somebody confirm if this has not been "fixed"?
Thank you.

Well I have tried this new release and all I can say is bootloop, oh and to top it off I think that my right speaker has blown.
Archos I hope you're reading this, you need to sort your firmware releases out. Whilst you're at it Gingerbread would be nice. If you can put it on the Arnova with inferior hardware you have no excuse but to port it to the 101.

I just noticed the update when I went to the archosfans 2.3.20 bugs thread to report wifi drop powersave disabled while running tunein radio...
OTA update went fine, just waiting for A43 to charge up, then I'm going to do the A32 as well...
[EDIT]
Power LED blinking -> UI batt meter (and About Device) say 98% charge...
had this once with 2.3.20 showing 97% when LED blinking but next charge and thereafter showed 100% when LED blinking...
[/EDIT]

I had this Problem from the first day.
LED blinks and the battery show around 90%.
If i unplug the power the status goes to 98-100%, most 100%.
If i reboot the device with plugged power, the status is 75-90% after restart.
Sometimes the status falls to 87-91% if i plugged the power in.
I can live with it, but it is annoying.

did they remove bluetooth PAN tether ? I had dun/pan option while setting up BT tether with 2.3.20. but now no more that option. the probken for me is, i am using cdma phone(bell htc touch) but with BT DUN the Archos cannot dial CDMA number #777. I set bell APN (pda.bell.ca) it's not working. Actully even if it works I worry about it because it may charge me more.
Before with 2.3.20 , it worked perfect with BT PAN and my phone set to Internet sharing.

This update cleared up my waking-up issue.
It's pretty much an instant on now after the monitor idles off. Before, (after being off for more than a few minutes) it was a crap-shoot as to whether or not the screen would come on and I often had to fight with it and double, triple, quadruple tap the power button to get things alive. No longer.

still reboot cycles problems when charging the 101..problem started with these last 2 updates.

twit.tv app FCs all of the time with this fw...
I wonder why they released this one OTA as it seems to be more broken than .20 was...

youtube and many other flash video played in the browser hangs after about 15 seconds or so. Soemtime this causes the whole system to freeze requiring forced reboot.
This is the worse build so far, my A70 was most stable at 2.1.08.

Wow. I am having the exact opposite experience with this firmware. I find the browser and flash to be very solid. Before I could never play even youtube mobile in HD without it freezing and forcing a hard reboot.
Also, i'm having less general freezes.
I am still having absolutely no luck whatsoever with tethering to my Android phone (cliq). It's driving me crazy cause this was one of the main reasons I went with Archos.
Have you guys done a full reinitialization? That's what I did and, even though it's a pain to reload all your files, it might help with many of the problems you are having.

As a matter of fact I did an Android reset to get away from some of the problems I was having with bootloops and such. This has helped with the general performance of the 101, which I'd say is down to the 64mb swap file I now enjoy.
I did have a couple bootloops until I enabled a lock screen pattern unlock and I have now experienced nothing but fairly good performance

It seems that 2.3.26 is different from vesions before

You'd probably be better off posting in the archosfans.com forum's bug list thread for 2.3.26 as Archos employees actually monitor that site and have actually even started some of the buglist/fw release threads... i.e. I'm not sure that they're even aware of the xda-devs gen8 section and even if they were would they bother to read it...

4.10.30 update

I just wonder, since about 2-3 day's i read about the 4.10.xx to 4.10.30 update, especially 4.10.22 to 4.10.30, it could be any version from 4.10.07 to 4.10.22 to 4.10.30. Obviously if the initial number is smaller the file is bigger. For instance 4.10.07 tp 4.10.30 is 49MB, 4.10.09 to 4.10.30 is 44MB, 4.10.22 to 4.10.30 is 40MB. Still i think 4.10.22 to 4.10.30 would do the job, since everybody can update to 4.10.22.
isn't there anybody who is kind enough to fetch the link, download it and upload it to megaupload, as already explained in other posts.
there is still lot's of countries where this update is not available, and it would be nice to have it.
i know it fixes at least 2 bug's features:
1 sound off once in sleep mode
2 faster navigating internet, possibly due to better implementation of the tegra drivers.
by the way TEGRAZONE is up and aviable now with new HD games, some of them are free, so would be nice if rom makers are not removing this anymore.

I found the 4.010.30 update in the following site
http://bbs.sdapk.com/thread-30641-1-1.html
Here is the download link http://acer-a500.googlecode.com/files/update.zip
I downloaded and flashed. Everything is fine up to now.

Tegrazone has been up and available for ages, and hasn't been updated in ages either.

tks a lot, installed and working using natif acer update on external sd card.
obviously the navigation is faster and better then what I had before. I will check on the sound pb also later on.
it truly shows 4.10.30, great.
reactivated SU and reinstalled CWM, and everything works fine.
Well concerning TEGRAZONE, I had nothing in there 2 weeks ago, never mind, still there a free games in there which allows to check the HD capabilities of the machine.

Wrong tread sorry.

I don't know guys....
I checked the file from that link provided in post #2 and when extracted, it's dated "02/09/2011"
February ?? ... I doubted this build existed in February.
I'll hold off on this one for a bit and wait for the OTA

I just got an update from .30 to .38
Anybody else got it please share.

This is the update to 4.010.39. Flash in CWM.
I don't know what have been changed, flash at your own risk.

good old Acer and their UN-organized way of updates...etc
talk about creating mass confusions....sheeessh !!!

I would use caution, after I installed the .022 to .030, I started having problems getting apps from the market. I kept getting a completing transaction error
MK

everything was working wel with .30 release, until this morning no wifi connection. tried al solutions on xda nothing worked, did factory reset, and connected and got a update to.38. see how it goes.
Greetz Dennis

i got .22 to .30 from the links in this thread, and had no problems with it. have n't heard anything of the .38, i will have a look at it.
i will look at .39 know.
anyhow the sound pb is fixed and navigation is pretty fast now.

No kidding!

Updated to .39
I updated to the .39 downloaded from this thread. Used CWM. Previous version was .22. Not seeing any changes yet. I'm starting to think that these different versions really are nothing but regional variations.

ok updated to .39 seems to work, will check later or tomorrow for any changes.
it really says 4.10.39

WTH
And now I see somewhere that there's a .40 Wth, Acer. Arrrrgh.

Can I upgrade directly from 4.010.22 to this .39 or do I first go to .30 and afterwards from .30 to .39?
thanks, Marcher

Dennis,
This is a known issue with the upgrade to 3.1. I actually had the same thing and after it happened a second I chatted with 2nd level support at Acer. The resolution is to do 2 hardware resets in a row. While the tablet is on use a paperclip and push it into the hole under the full sized USB socket to reset the tablet, when the tablet completely restarts and you are back at the desktop press the reset button one more time.
When the tablet comes back up again you will have WiFi again. It's been 4 days since I did Acer's solution and no issues.

Can you people stop posting about this updates upon updates already. Some of us haven't even seen the first one yet.

Netflix 1.6.0 video issue

The netflix app version 1.6.0 build 443 seems like it's having scaling issues. It'll play fine for a bit but then the lower third of the screen bugs out. I've searched the forums, but haven't found much information about it. Is anyone else experiencing this? If so, have you got a line on what might be going on?

Hello,
I have experiencing the same issue. I called netfilx and they basically washed their hands and they reffered me to ACER (I have an Acer Iconia A500 tablet).
Acer said that this is the first time they heard about this issue and they are going to investigate further but since there are not many eports of it I am not sure what's goin to happen.
My solution at this point was to remove v1.6.0 and reinstall theolder version 1.5.2
Netflix is now working fine.
I found the file n152.apk at filesonic.com

Thanks for the heads up. I'll give 1.5.2 a try. I've already tried the patched version (from before netflix was available on the market) but I was prompted to update the app and prevented from signing in.
Incidentally, though I haven't watched much since doing it, I changed the video quality in my netflix account settings to "better" and haven't had the screen issue yet (I also wiped the app data afterward).
I had already wiped many times before trying to fix the issue, and the video quality change was to limit data use.

I've noticed this as well. I've seen reports of this happening on Transformers, Xooms and the Sony Tablet S in the Market app reviews. This is probably an issue with Honeycomb tablets in general. One thing I've noticed is that if I flip the rotation lock switch or adjust the volume, the video returns to normal (just a tip so you don't have to restart the video or anything).

I have that issue too...
Yup. Me too.
It will be going along fine, a scene will change and either:
1) seems like I only see 3/4 of the picture with the rest off screen
2) bottom third de rezzes / turns into scan lines and mush
..and a pause will reset it back to normal.
I too will try a previous version...We'll see what happens!

I've been having this issue since they released the update to 1.6.0 as well.
This morning I put in a call to Netflix to address this issue and another on WP7, the lady on the phone said she would report everything to R&D, and sounded rather happy that someone was reporting issues.
Hopefully all it takes is a few keystrokes and we will all have yet another update!

That's great, wokker. I did the same a few days back; maybe we'll get a fix soon. The issue happened on my brother's stock a500 as well as on my rooted and OC'd a500, so it does seem to be something that could be addressed on their end. I haven't reverted yet (no time since school is back in), but has anyone else had luck with v1.5.2?

possible fix that worked for me.
I had the same issue, thought it might be when the screen tries to time out so I set the Screen Time out to never and it seems to have stopped the problem.

FLEXX 11 WORKS!! just a couple things?

I am truly amazed at this. I have been searching for almost 3 years for a working dual boot android for my windows 2 in 1 next book FlexX 11. I have begged, posted and begged some more for this and now I have it thanks to Phoenix OS. (Just Google flexx11 android and you will see all my posts)
The only things that do not seem to work is Bluetooth and on some driving games the accelerometer is stuck in portrait even though I'm in landscape. It's weird because the nicer games have the bug and the cheaper ones work.
Please don't take this as complaining, honestly I would like these fixed if possible, but if they never are I would still be very pleased.
THANK YOU PHOENIX OS AND DEVS YOU MADE MY DREAMS COME TRUE!
You did what all the others couldnt

Anyone?
Bluetooth fix?
Accelerometer fix?
Anyone?

How did you get it to work? wonder if it would work on my Ares 10a?

You could have built it yourself.

Hello,
I could get Bluetooth working (at least for file transfers) using a custom build by youling257 and another guy from the Chinese PhoenixOS forum. The key was the init.sh script, it had a fix for other models with the same hardware, I have simply included the model I have (actually modified an existing one to match mine). Do you know exactly your BT model? Thinkpad 8 uses a Broadcom chip.
As for the games, my guess is that the builds fake a gyroscope that actually doesn't exist, at least mine has only accelerometer, that works for rotating the screen, but apps that report sensors also list others that don't exist. You can try disabling the kernel modules or changing the XML permissions to disable the gyroscope...
Regards

So you managed to solve sound problem? I don't care bluetooth but audio is important for me because i only use it for netflix and youtube. Please help me if you have a solution for audio problem.

I'm tinkering with my Portable as well . I currently have Linage OS on it and am able to install NVIDIA Games on it . Geforce Now will not stream however and I get an "error code 11". I also was not able to download Xcloud game streaming .
Let me ask you about your portable . If you are on stock firmware ( Lollipop) , do you randomly lose volume -like if the headphones where plugged in ? This happens on mine . If I'm on Kit Kat it's fine but I can't use Geforce Now or anything .
I've been racking my brain over this for awhile - there is still some life in this device and would like to resolve this issue.

I need to get a stock OTA zip currently I can't find it in any of my archives I've also been pretty busy lately as for any issues pertaining to the stock OTA I can't take a look until later on I will be setting up a build environment to see if I can build stock again from source (not sure how likely it will be) I have been hearing a lot of issues with stock OTA now I am honestly not sure if that is due to issues with it or if some of these devices aren't aging well
Also any of you looking to reach me with any questions I don't check XDA much so here's a telegram link to the chat pinned to first post

lol - This device !! I've decided I'm not giving up yet ! I've tried stock L ( 103, 106, 110 ) All have this weird sound issue where the speakers will either make heart attack inducing high pitches ( capacitor noises ? ) or the volume will force itself into "silent mode" . You can restart the portable and the sound will come back , calm down ect. This is really bothering me though because game streaming is still really good on this device . Also when on official Kit Kat or Linage OS none of these sound problems occur. I've even tried rooting it and basically removing all Google apps possible and the sound issue still happens .
Currently I have the portable rooted with Magisk on Linage OS 6.1 ( the last nightly build) I've tried hiding the NVIDIA apps , Sony PS4 Remote Play and have had "no luck ". Geforce Now will install perfectly start to load the game , then right before it starts there is a error code 11 that pops up .
Something Google did in the lollipop update to the portable messed up the speakers . ( I thought it might be the "memory leak issue" - but the last update OFW was 5.1 not 5.0
Haaaalllppp !!!

Hey, question to anyone who can answer - I just got my hands on a couple of Shield Portable 2 prototypes. They seem a bit less complete than the famous one that showed up at a pawn shop a couple of years ago, but one of them turns on and can connect to the internet. I want to see if I can get it up and running - it's still quite buggy, will crash if any videos are opened and obviously doesn't have any google services involved - but I just want to do what I can to make it as usable as possible. . I'm a complete noob when it comes to all this, just someone who was a big fan of the original portable and wanted to try and get this prototype to run some games. If anyone can help me out, or point me in the right direction, it would be much appreciated. Thank you!

I'm wondering if you could dump the system info , if someone could make a custom rom that could be flashed ?

I'm interested in anything that people manage with streaming.
I got lineage android 6.1 installed on it yesterday and managed to get the xbox game streaming app installed via the apk (the latest one boots then crashes, but the one before loads), however it still requires a bluetooth controller to connect, wish we could get the integrated controller to work with this and would make it so perfect for streaming xbox remotely.

If anyone is wondering yes I am still working on the device as we all know this year has been a real doozy for us all also I am moving across the US this coming week so please just work with all the devs here and we shall see what happens

Awesome glad to hear it. Just revived mine.
I am working on gathering all Shield portable files and putting them up on our website AFH. Let me know when you have something ready and I will make sure it gets put on every server possible and doesn't get deleted.
Here is what I have gathered so far

Oddly enough guys I've been having issues pulling the manifest from RR I've told them about the issue we'll see if it gets fixed it looks like I am not having any issues pulling aosp manifest keep in mind I am not saying that I will have a aosp rom out because I am unsure if that will even work but we will see what happens
Update: no issues with AOSP now I'm just waiting for lineage to finish again no promises of a rom guys I know we've been having issues since 7.x android quite frankly I'd be surprised myself if lineage 17.1 will even work
Also on some personal notes this is 100% a back burner project as it looks as tho I'll be having to move again as I haven't been able to find work where I am currently at I know that the whole covid-19 situation has made it hard on everyone especially here in the US among other things in the country right now but I am still hopeful things will turn around and work out and hopefully I can get some kind of build out even if it's not great

Hey, question to anyone who can answer - I just got my hands on a couple of Shield Portable 2 prototypes. They seem a bit less complete than the famous one that showed up at a pawn shop a couple of years ago, but one of them turns on and can connect to the internet. I want to see if I can get it up and running - it's still quite buggy, will crash if any videos are opened and obviously doesn't have any google services involved - but I just want to do what I can to make it as usable as possible. . I'm a complete noob when it comes to all this, just someone who was a big fan of the original portable and wanted to try and get this prototype to run some games. If anyone can help me out, or point me in the right direction, it would be much appreciated. Thank you!

I'm interested in anything that people manage with streaming.
I got lineage android 6.1 installed on it yesterday and managed to get the xbox game streaming app installed via the apk (the latest one boots then crashes, but the one before loads), however it still requires a bluetooth controller to connect, wish we could get the integrated controller to work with this and would make it so perfect for streaming xbox remotely.

Not sure I know RR 6.0.1 had quite a few bugs but due to how outdated 6.x is I can't really do much with it
