Compared to previous 2.1 ROM leaks this one is faster & more stable. It's version number suggests it's an official public release instead of a beta testing ROM.

plus it's dated may 10... fresh from the oven

Problem Regarding upgrading ROM in Acer Liquid
HI there,
I am having problem in upgrading ROM in Acer Liquid.I have downloaded everything from Acer's website but after connecting with the USB;I am having messege that this ROM is "OS file type is Not match, Now stop the whole process." I am toonew for upgrading the ROM in Android device.I have currently installed
Firmware Version 1.6
Basebnd version A1-01.01.04
Kernel version 2.6.29
Build number Acer_Liquid_1.001.05_AAP_CSL
Please anyone help regarding this problem.Thanks in advance.

You need to download the ACER DOWNLOAD TOOL in order to flash the rom, which will help you to flash to different version.

Hi, is this the official ACER ROM?
Does it have Multi-touch? I Was using another 2.1 ROM but found it too slow so went back to the official 1.6. Spoke to ACER ope a couple of weeks ago, they couldn't confirm when 2.1 would be launched.

It is by Acer but not officially put out by Acer.
It is leaked to the public.
It does have multitouch. And I have found it to be pretty stable (been using it for the past 1-2 weeks, randomly froze on me twice. But aside from that it has been good).

Hmmm, OK sounds good. The only problem the last time I rooted to 2.1 was that several apps were missing from the marketplace - Seesmic, Wordpress, Barcode scanner to name three (that I use quite a lot!).
Can anyone using this ROM verify they are available?

I don't understand... what do you mean the apps are missing?
The apps on the market are what they are, if you mean apps actually installed on the device that don't show between market installed app list, it's just because you didn't install those by market, but maybe you installed those by some backup app...

As far as I know you can't back up apps can you?
When I rooted to a custom 2.1 ROM some apps (the ones I mentioned) were missing from the Apps Market. I was told that this was due to issues with custom ROMS.
So if anyone is using the ACER 2.1 ROM, all I want to know is are those Apps available if I flash my Liquid?

Would this ROM work in Singapore? Do I have to setup the connections or anything? flashing this would void the warranty right? is it possible to revert back to android 1. 6 after flashing?

If you flash the 2.1 ROM, and then Malez Recovery, there's an feature in malezRecoery that enables market, I haven't used it myself, but I think it's what you need.

The 2.1 ROM is for EMEA region (Europe, Middle East, Americas). It may not support your locales & languages. But everything else should work still.

Thanks. Will look for that.

I'm in Taiwan, I have update this rom, everything is fine just one question, battery power
consumed to fast (less than 30 hours), and I have been try the other cooker's rom like Xian 0.7 version, Vach1.0.1, and Batista 1.8.3 . so far last one is on duty and I like it. but I can't install Chinese handwriting app, that's all no other bugs.
by the way, if you want to back to 1.6 version use Acer tools, it can ba back.

Barcode Scanner is baked into the new ROM. Seesmic for Twitter and Wordpress do show up in the Android Market for me. I do know that at some times, certain apps will not be offered to devices with unofficial ROMS or with OS versions more recent than recognized for the device you have. I actually called DataViz on this and several of their apps can download the trial/demo but you can not buy the license.

Flashed the ROM at the weekend and have all the apps I wanted, thanks for coming back though.
Notice that it can be a little sluggish if you have too many apps open at once, well I had 10 open

Try launcherPro from market and will see how smooth can 2.1 be!

I soon have an Acer Liquid (NOT Acer Liquid E).
Can I flash this Firmware with Acer Downloader onto the standard "Acer Liquid" - or is this only for the "Acer Liquid E" ?
Can anyone tell some experiences in battery runtime...?

Got the same!But after downloading,it asked me to install the update and rebooted
into Recovery menu!
Then,at recovery menu,I got "No Siganture (235 files)" and "Verfication failed"
error!
Installing update,maybe not possible at Custom ROMs!

Yeah, it should be possible.
Htc release ota updates as delta upgrades, containing only differences between files. Custom ROMs don't use the identical same files, so we need to patch the old ones with these new files.
And our custom recovery images don't accept htc ota keys, since you could get locked out of rooting if this happened.
I can try and look later on at this...
Ok,so it seems problems with the "patch files" too,not possible
via recovery menu,right?
Hope you can do it!
Hmm it seems that this update only add's a gsensor config, I dont know if they fixed the problem with streams and T-Mobile Netherlands (I guess not).
Seems to be a lot of changes (a lot of files to patch) just to add G-sensor config. Probably a bugfix release too...

Hmm well because I have a different bootloader and a stock T-Mobile rom it just don't show up. It's gonna take a while before I get my hands on this one
so is there a full list of what this update has done?
i have a custom rom and managed to install this with no problems.
i have seen a similar update on the desire and it seems to fix the message notifications (messages will display 1, even though all messages are read.)
Hi All,
Loking at the files contained within this update, can anyone confirm if this will have an effect on the Bluetooth capabilities of the phone. There are a few threads out there with people like myself who had their bluetooth functionality reduced with their car kits. The pairing would work, but the connection failed. The connection worked fine in 1.5, and is working again in custom 2.2 roms (I'm running Fusion),
Cheers

any progress?
hmm, update.zip contains boot.img and recovery.img, as well as many updates for framework, many apps, system etc...
so it can contain any new protection method to disable root possibility and/or changing roms to custom.
anybody with genuine 2.1 installed this? anything happened?
I just checked the boot.img from the original update to Android 2.1 and from this one, and they're exactly the same, bit by bit, so there isn't any changes in the kernel.
appied update and then rooted all worked fine
i have installed this update after i got my repaired hero back from htc yesterday. i did root my phone after this update and it seems to be fine.
the only thing i cant do is downgrade to 1.5 using a goldcard. it say something about im using the incorrect id.
But i dont know if that was the update that did that or htc did it when they had my phone

Sounds normal. What rooting method did you use? (Shamelessly trying to find out if my port of the Droid eris one still works after this update)
If you root and flash custom recovery, you can flash another hboot, thus allowing a 1.5 RUU to work with gold card.
But that is a risky process, and there's no need in my opinion to use it.
@pulser_g2
You are working on an update.zip,so we can flash with
custom rom`s?
Or not possible?

What do you mean? I'll probably post the raw files from this update, and then anyone who wants them can push them into a ROM.
Looking at the zip right now and it's definatly a bunch of updates for the system!

Now that the Android Market website has finally launched (and stabilized) we're beginning to see reports of rooted devices, and some running custom ROMs, not being recognized by the website. We're having the very same issue ourselves, where a pristine Desire Z running a factory installed copy of Android 2.2 Froyo is listed on the "My Device" page while an old HTC Hero hacked to run Froyo courtesy of FroydVillain ROM does not, even though it's logged in and syncing using the same Google login ID and the Android Market has been recently used from the device (as Google recommends on the "Trouble Downloading" help page). So what about you oh reader, oh rooter... what are you experiencing?
Working fine on MIUI rom. Just tried it to make sure.
poll up
I'm using CM 6.1.1 and it's not working for me. Maybe because I'm also using the old market.
YOU NEED THE NEW MARKET.
Working fine on CyanogenMod 7.
I don't think this has anything to do w/ being rooted and/or running a custom ROM. I'm on EViO 1.7.7 & at first the web market didn't recognize my EVO until yesterday morning but I'm stll unable to install apps. I think it's just a matter of Google working out the kinks. Besides, Engadget's poll is somewhat meaningless since most people that are running their phones completely stock don't even know a web market exists & have probably never heard of Engadget.

Probably something set in the ROM that is wrong, there are a ton of different properties that can do all kinds of weird stuff if they aren't right.

Working perfect for me on CM 6.1.1 with the old market.
It didn't work for me when it first rolled out while on myn RLS5. However, for a few reasons, I wiped, reflashed the same ROM, restored all user apps and a few system apps. It now works just fine.
So there's something that needs to be reset. I don't know what it is. I had tried clearing market data and that didn't do it. Maybe GTalk (it sounds like it uses that to push the install notifications). Maybe something else. But it will work with a custom ROM, even if it initially didn't work with that same custom ROM.
Could it have something to do with background data and auto sync? When I turn both off my chrome to phone also stops working. Haven't tried to install apps from the site though
Just confirmed it works on Warn TwoPointTwo RL5

Not working for me on RLS5, maybe it has to do with flashing CM/Myns back and forth for a while bc it shows some apps I installed using CM as installed and of course the apps are not installed any longer, and im on the latest market. Anyhow im waiting on a RC for CM7 to start from scratch.
specs in sig and it works, downloads start in maybe 10-15 secs.
@driguez: assuming you've done the proper backup/restore with Titanium, force-close the Market app and delete its data. Then reload it and you should have your app list back without the extra CM apps. You could even try the remote downloading but I don't know if it'd work.

No, just wait for the OTA to come out.

I to believe . well with a bit more details. Trying to say this nicely as humanly possibly.. IF you have read the forum thread in its entirety you might should not Install any rom .Give this a few days for all the fuss to calm down and see how it really runs before you make the leap.
Be patient and it will be all worked out on the safety and someone will put up a NOOOBIE STEP BY STEP INSTALL For this rom. Just as all the others in the past..
good luck and Happy Please waiting

Yes you can !
You can install the "original version" of this ROM from your recovery if (and only if) you root your tablet and install Amon-Ra recovery on it.
Renee: Now that we know that it's possible to go back to Honeycomb from this ROM, you could maybe test it and give your impression and your opinion?

Thank you all. but I do not know if I install this rom now, I'll wait a little longer for a more stable version or the official version in April.
Wise decision, alexmd
But this Rom is the one that will be sent by OTA, I believe... most probably before April. Some people working for Acer have announced that the OTA must begin in a very short time now.

THIS LEAKED ROM IS FOR DEVELOPMENT
•Give the developers time to take this leaked ROM and make a stable release.
•Currently there is no version that keeps full Root and Recovery. A500 tablets will bootloop flashing the CWM version.
•A501 users can flash the CWM version but there is no 3G.
•A500 users can flash the stock ROM, but there is no Root and no way to install Recovery. Going back to 3.2.1 is not verified.
PATIENCE PLEASE, while this is being worked on.
I am willing to bet within a week or so we will start seeing ICS Roms that can be flashed with either Acer Recovery, CWM or RA.

This is not the same rom that will come thru OTA.. Acer on there website has said the acer a500 WILL Receive the same Added app updates the new Acer lock screen as well as the Acer ring. This leaked rom has none of them. This is the reason people are saying that the leaked rom is a Alpha build. and will Likely have issues and compatibility issues
I don't understand what you mean, Renee
There is a new lock screen ring (a bit modified) on this leak rom.
Anyway, you can be right but, for me, there is no need to change anything on this Rom. .. The only thing to change now to be close to perfection, is these two crappy microphones...

I believe she is talking about the "acer ring", which is some overlay that appears when you put 5 fingers on the screen in a ring shape.
Sent from my tomato filled Evo
There should be a ring lock screen that has the ability to run some apps without unlocking. by draging it to that app.. also a more complex one built into the UI
as well as some new acer apps that nobody has mentioned.. If you go to acer.com and find there latest news it talks about these things..
but i could be wrong. Im still waiting a few more days to see what comes about this boot loader unlock commands now available..
Its all good who knows at this point
I flashed the stock one, everything works fine. amazing in fact. the cameras are far better! especially with all the new camera features. this version is super stable, not sure what everyone is freaking out about. I havent had anything force close or any problems.

i know. but i don't need it. I'm aware some people might, but having no root doesn't mean its not stable. Ive seen a bunch of posts where people keep saying its for developers only and not stable. I'm just trying to say that its super stable. IF you don't need root, just flash the stock one. It far surpasses any custom 3.2 roms out there. even if i never get another update, i'll be happy.

quoted for truth.
i always ran a rooted stock 3.2.1 anyway, so this ICS build (i could care less about the "acer ring". in fact i'd prefer to not have it) with the root method laid out in the official thread works perfectly for me.
i can use my rooted apps and i can delete bloatware and install system apps by mounting /system as /dev/tmpdir

[Q] Problem with my lg gt540 after update from 1.6 to 2.1

Hello all.
I have a lg gt540 which came with android 1.6 installed.
I wanted to update it to have a new version of android, because I wanted to install an app from android market and I found that application don't work on android 1.6.
So I decided to update it and I found a post somewhere here, where it say a way to update android via lg updater tool (because 2.1 is supported by lg). I did all the steps and I installed android 2.1 on my phone.
After installing android 2.1 some icons with plus.pl was showing on my screen, I tried to delete them but without any success. Anyway, i said that they can stay there, it's not a big problem.
I did a factory reset because I thought that I can have the 1.6 version back but that was not what I expected.
After the reset the android market is now working and show an error (Sorry! , The application Market (process com.android.vending) has stopped unexpectedly. Please try again. Force close) and an error appears when I turn the phone on (System UIDs Inconsistent , UIDs on the system are inconsistent, you need to wipe your data partition or your device will be unstable , I'm Feeling Lucky ) And I have the option to pres just the I'm Feeling Lucky button.
I see that when I open google maps the gps can't localize my location (I am connected to internet via wireless).
I have tried to update my os to android 2.3+ maybe this can fix the problem but I haven't succed.I have seen a lot of tutorials here , but most of them have broken links or I don't understand the steps (the way the tutorial is made is for people who has at leas basic knowledge of android stuff, and I don't have at all).
I have done many times factory reset, because I have read that it may resolve the problems but still no success.
Any suggestion from you? Should I try to update to a newer version of android or I should try to make a new manual installation of android 2.1.
My phone info:
Model number: GT540
Firmware version : 2.1-update1

Hi, i know it seems hard but slowly following this http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1224747 step by step line by line you would be done in no time!!

Thanks for the respose.
I finally did install it
Now I have to choose a good ROM, because I installed one 2.3.7 and has a lot of stuff in Russian
PS: I want a ROM which is clean, simple, stable and don't have installed hundred of programs.
2.1, 2.2, 2.3 doesn't matter.
I just want to install viber and to work the gps to find my position (or latitude, I am not sure if is called so).
Thanks again
Actually all of the roms on the first page of the development forum are awesome. For language its easy to fix...

i recommend the (latest) SDSL 2.1 by miroslav_mm - its 2.3.7
all needed Gapps are preinstalled but some bloat too.
you should flash an 170+ mb for system, then you can delete these system apps.
EDIT: Just select your language and reboot -> no russian

2.1, 2.2, 2.3 doesn't matter.
I just want to install viber and to work the gps to find my position (or latitude, I am not sure if is called so).
Thanks again

you should use 2.3 because it's much faster than previous versions. avoid 2.1 or below because it's garbage collection is bad, you'll have to run task manager to free memory frequently (which you don't ever have to do in 2.3), besides it doesn't have JIT so apps run very slow
The last part is true but not very true either If we had someone to seriously mod and polish 2.1 like 2.3 it would be very fast! But... app compatibility is bad

Yeah I haven't been able to figure it out for months...
Your ROM is very similar to the modifications I've made on my own.. In order to accomplish what I really want to do, I think I need to build an AOSP ROM for this. Do you have any idea how to set up an AOSP device tree for this device, or care to lend a hand? I'm starting the research phase now, never really done this before, but I feel too held back by the stock Moto version of Android on here to and feel like I need to start over from scratch with a stock AOSP 2.3.7 base. Not sure if its worthwhile to try for a newer version of Android given the limited memory on this device..
your rom rocks OP, looking forward to updates.
I made running software a bit more complete than the one in the original ROM
I made a little software that can connect to HR and footpod which is a bit more complete than the one coming with the ROM,
take a look at : http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1939854.
curently only footpod and HR are supported, but I'am testing a version which includes
for biking :Bike Speed-Cadence sensor .
for running:kinetics (internal accelerometer) so no footpod needed.
a csv usable in Sporttracks is generated
Any update on this rom t2k?
Version 2.0.1 released
Enjoy it!
Thanks for keeping this development alive.

Yes, the ROM always Force Close when gapps (Play Store, Talk) are installed. I have no time and no skill to fix it. I will try to add it back later. Now, please use adb to install apps.
For the home button on the dock issue, did you mean that the "All Applications" icon is missing on the right side of the launcher? if yes, please long press on home screen to add it back.
dprolidan released his aosp port of 2.3.4 with a github of the sources if it helps (just got my motoactv last week, saw the post about aosp and just making it known to anyone else who might not be aware)

Thanks for your information. From http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=28179638, dproldan said all google apps are working in their rom, I will try to integrate my stuffs based on that ROM in next release (better than fixing the issues by myself).

Any progress? I'm going to try and flash this ROM once I can figure out how to do it. Root tool works fine but Easy Modder doesn't work for me. Going to try Image Flasher V3.
****** UPDATE: Figured it out with a little trial and error.... Just flashed and will be trying it out..... THANKS!*****
OK, is there something I'm missing. Trying to put this ROM on my 16gb Motoactv. I can use root tool to root the device but the Motoactv Easy Modder doesn't seem to recognize the device. I can't change the buttons or boot into recovery to install this ROM, it just says waiting for device or path not correct (or something like that). I even tried the Motoactv Image Flasher, but it also didn't seem to recognize the Motoactv.
I have a 16GB Motoactv and running Windows 7 64-bit.
All I care about is using it For Runkeeper and connecting it to my phone for notifications. I don't care about the play store, as I find that using it as an android device, though it kinda off cool, is mostly of useless for me.
Can someone point me in the right direction?
I guess there isn't much activity with this ROM anymore. I managed to get it installed but GPS would not get a lock at all. I just flashed the latest ClearDroid ROM then installed the modded Runkeeper apk from your site and now it's working and getting GPS locks.
Thank you so much for the Runkeeper_mod.apk, it's giving me what I wanted from my Motoactv. :good:

Does this ROM have the Motoactv Golf software built in still? Mine is Rooted, but I'm running the general 1.7.10 software....but I could really use to open it up a bit. I bought the watch primarily for Golf, I run a ton and do "Insanity." And it would be great if I could keep my Data Synced with my iPhone instead of the ACTV portal. If I use RunKeeper, I can keep it in both places. Would LOVE to have Notifications from my phone, go to the watch...but I don't think there is a real good way of doing so with an iPhone.

It been a while and I don't recall any Golf software. As I could not get a GPS lock I moved to the ClearDroid Motoactv ROM and installed the Moded RunKeeper APK that the RunKeeperACTV ROM uses. I've gone back to using my phone because I have a hard time getting it to sync with RunKeeper. I did get it to sync the first time I used it after repeated attempts. I kept getting slow connection notices. The last time I tried I don't think I ever got it to sync. I'll try again after updating to the latest ClearDroid ROM as I'm still running an older version.
Try a MotoActv ROM of you choice with the Moded Runkeeper (it's not the new runKeeper version, but works) and see how it works for you. This ROM, RunKeeperACTV, seem to not be active anymore so I would not recommend using it.
You lost me on step 5. How do I do this?
Thanks
