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.It has currently installed which is I think HongKong ROM.It is as under,
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.I want to get rid of my old ROM.Thanks in advance.
I put LCR on my phone, it is a very clean custom ROM with clear instructions here- https://code.google.com/p/acer-liqu...cker/wiki/HowToRootAndFlashLiquidCommunityROM . You could either flash the bin and be done or go ahead and install LCR (which I would recommend, it is very good).
ALSO make sure you read this as well (warning of something tht could potentially happen)- http://android.modaco.com/content/a...will-have-a-bricked-liquid-mod-please-sticky/
There is even a video here- http://theunlockr.com/2010/03/16/how-to-root-the-acer-liquid/ but get all the links from the LCR page as these could be outdated.
Use the older version of Acer tool v3.1 (from another thread here) to be able to get past the ROM not matching your device error. The Acer tool from their website has been upgraded and doesn't allow mixing regions anymore. Also you can upgrade to the Eclair 2.1 ROM (LiquidE_1.100.05_EMEA) now. It's pretty stable. Just do a search for it here or at liquid.modaco.com.

Ok well i beleive i am pretty outdated here. i first rooted my device when it became available (used goldcard method) took me for ever but i did along with changing the radio from the perfected SPL.
currently as it sits my Recovry image is Build RAv1.2.1G
my SPL also is 1.33.2005 (SAPP30000)
Radio - 2.22.19.26I
the latest Cyanogen Rom i have flashed is the 1.6 donut right before he had to stop putting inthe Google apps 4.11 i beleive.
currently i have a Hero Rom on it and its ok but im geting very excited for the new Eclair 2.0 coming out soon and i would like to get up to date so that when it does become available i can start flashing that as well.
i know its not a good idea to ask stuff like this in the Developer forum so thats why i put this in here.
i have no idea how out of date i am in regrds to Recovery image version, how people now flash Cyanogens new ROMS (as in what steps they take now) and if i even still have the most current Radio.
can anyone please bring me up to speed? i have been so caught up in other things like work and photography (my other hobby) that i havent been able to keep up with the advancements lately)
your recovery is a couple of versions out of date, check the changelog but it shouldn't be a big deal. i flashed my first rom with 1.2.1 as well
cyano has posted a howto in the dev forum on his new rom thread, but essentially you fastboot to recovery, wipe your phone, flash the official htc donut image (which includes licensed google apps) then DO NOT BOOT and flash cyano's rom over the top of that
Hi,
I bought myself yesterday a Magic (32A), but the pre-owner flashed it with Capyslide. a few things annoy me (GPS doesn´t work properly,...) so I want to recover the original status. Therefore I downloede the original Update (RUU_Sapphire_HTC_Europe_3.05.401.3_release_signed_NoDriver.exe) but it doesn´t work - what shall I do?? please help me
Download and flash CursorSense rom from here....it's based on the last official 1.5 release and with little changes to it's integrity....it's also faster then official release is. But of course there are ways of making gps work. Btw if you wish to have gps working on cursorsense or even your original rom (which can also be found here, rooted), you first need to reflash the radio because 2.1 roms don't get along with 1.5 on new radio.
no link
sorry but there was no link - how can i install it?
For that, I cannot help you because I would have to write a looong text to explain it all to you. First of all, you need to place rom in zip format to the root of your sdcard, reboot into recovery and wipe data and after that flash the rom....you can find lots and lots of tutorials here and you need to read them all....very carefully. Btw this is not for dev related, but general. And as for the links, for pit's sake, there's a search function here and also numbers down below for you to select on what page you wish to go....you'll find it probably either on this first page or second.
Moved to General since it's not about ROM Development.
flash radio
what radio should i flash?
would this be the way

please help!
New official rom OS_Acer_1.100.39.EMEA.GEN1_A21E_A
Download:
OS_Acer_1.100.39.EMEA.GEN1
Does not work for everyone
Link to Mirror with fast DL
I found it also in the Acer official Driver Download page...
I'm from Italy, but i notice that if you visit the page from USA you can't see it.
I'm newbie... so, I can't insert url
If you go to the Italian site, you have to select "Android 2.1 Eclair" where there is "Sistema Operativo"
P.S.
Sorry for my bad english

ill wait for an LCR customized version of this bin
I rooted my Liquid from firmware 2.000.16.EMEA.CUS1 to Acer_LiquidE_1.100.05_EMEA_GEN1 and now installing this but whats the difference between this and LCR_1.7 by:malez2000?
this is a official stock rom, the official upgrade for acer liquid by acer.
yeah i know its the official one. So i guess i am asking if the LCR1.7 is based off a older leaked rom. does it have benifits to install that version instead of this offical.
However, I have sinced installed the official so i am running that now. I would still like to know if the LCR is better.
additionally dont want to start a new thread, can you hide the apps in the menu? I know you cant uninstalled stock apps as they are built into the rom but remove them from the menu. Out of sight out of mind type thing.
After installing and using the new 2.1 ROM during a few days, I'm out of internal memory space.
I've uninstalled most of the applications, but I'm unable to recover more than a few Mo
So I'm not actually completely happy with the new room.
IF you are willing to root your device, you can use malez recovery to move apps to sdcard. It creates a partition (generally 500 megs+) onto your sdcard allowing you to place your apps there. If that runs low, you can go back into recovery and move davlik cache onto sdcard.
If you do this, I think you need a custom rom which is compatible with apps2sd.
I would wait until one of the many cooks in this community make one based on this newest bin.
I downoladed this one and installed it today on my Acer Liquid. Strangely enough, I couldn't find it on acer support page. Tried different countries and languages - nothing. They might have removed it because it has bugs?
Anyway, tried this download - 2.1 is much better looking than my old 1.6.
If I get any problems I'll post them here.
Hi Guys,
I've treid to backup my current rom using rom manager. however it boots to receovery mode and then dump an error.
I am using the clockwork galaxy I9000 to back up the rom. Anything I am doing wrong?. Is there any specific instructions I need to follow?.
Are there any other programs to backup the rom?
Cheers,
PG
read through the original topic
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=734166
they explain why, and how to continue
Yes I did exactly what the thread said. I am using the android 2.2 firmware JP3 and when I select the update.zip it gives signature errors.
hmm... i think ROM Manager is not yet compatible with Froyo beta
contact the developer, and report the bug, he'll be able to help you.
but he might ask you to buy the full version, which i believe will support those ROMs
hi there.
i got my legend 3 days ago
i got it from some guy that used it for a while, he told me that it has installed superuser whit it the phone can run normaly, including updates, reading every simcards etc....
now i've read that for legend is released 2.2 sw, but my phone is running on 2.1-update1
and dont show me new updates when i click to check for it...
so guys plss can some of you post me here a step by step tutorial what should i do
to get my phone running on froyo or gingerbread if its possible
ty in advanced
confused android user
There's already plenty of tutorials in Development / stickies, some are not stickied, so you might have to search a bit...
As for the update, best way for you check few ROMs and install via ROM manager since you are rooted... B0.7 is particulary good one
ok i manager to install cyanogenmod 6.1 on my legend works great
btw why i cant login my acc on XDA app in phone?
you can go to the market and download Rom Manager... my preferred way in managing rom. it can download rom too ;-), if you found new rom that you want to test other than the ones found in Rom Manager. download it and put it on the root of your sd card so that its easy to look for.
eg. Blay0's B 0.7 rom found here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=866849
or
CM7 from here. http://download.cyanogenmod.com/?type=nightly&device=legend
and remember to Wipe Data and Cache if its a new ROM to avoid boot loop.
you can then use "Manage and Restore Backups" to jump between roms that you've backup or rename them to not get mix-up...
Have fun ^^
