Where can i find the chinese update zip?
I found a link but it links to a 404 on dropbox?
Anyone else have a link to it?
Thanks
Try this...http://xda.richardtrip.org/?dir=./Acer/Update
Ah thanks.
Also would this update wipe my data?
If so, is there anyway to back it up so I dont lose it? Despite the fact that I am currently brick =.="
Trying to unbrick my Iconia and the Chinese zip fails as being unsigned. I can not get to the tablet via adb. It just hangs at the Android on boot. I can boot into their recovery mode and tried the keyboard method and wiped out everything, I guess, but still can't find a way to get it back running. Any ideas?
I got the notice that my new Firmware was available, so I chose to just install it. I am rooted, and realize that would unroot the device, but I didn't much care. But when I hit install, the device rebooted and just hung on the triangle + exclamation point screen. So I rebooted the device, and I'm still on 3.1. Tried it twice more for same result.
Then I came here, saw that someone had already (can't believe how fast that happened) had a patched zip file to move to 3.2. I verified I still had root, downloaded that patch, and tried to install through CWM. Device reboots, but will not install.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Which recovery do you have? It sounds like you have a stock recovery, but need CWM to flash the modded 8656 zip file. Did you ever see the orange text of the menu screen?
if you changed your recovery the official update wont install. you have to wait for someone to post it rooted for cwm

Yeah, I have stock recovery. And no, I never saw any text.
Ok, so it sounds like you have 8.4.4.11 with the stock recovery.
I think you should flash CWM for 84411, then use that to flash Roach's upgrade. brk has a batch script that should be able to flash the right version of cwm, but I forget which option it is. I'm not sure if the version will matter, but it wouldn't hurt.

I would like to install the kitkats under development. Can they be installed over a stock rom? I've installed the latest 2ndInit that I could find (it displays its version as v1.1.8), which installed cyanogen recovery v5.0.3.1. The instructions say you have to update the recovery, but the update_recovery.zip file doesn't apply.
Can I put the kitcat over a stock rom? Do I need a more recent 2ndInit and/or recovery? If so, where do i find them?
(Yes, this is a spare phone, and I am doing this for testing purposes.)

In CWM flash this http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=48501247
After you have flashed this reboot the phone, enter again in bootmenu(vol - on blue led) > TWRP recovery and flash what Rom you want.

Thanks, that's working. What I had wrong is trying to flash update_recovery.zip, which looks like it is to update previous CMs. I was able to flash that .zip from the 2ndInit's custom recovery, and use that to flash CM11 Now I have CM11 on it - thanks for your help. Next to choose a gapps package. It was actually the name 'TWRP' that I was missing.
For other's convienience, you can get TWRP Manager from the market, but there doesn't seem to be an official download of the apk, if you don't want to bother setting up a google account to get it.
Hey,
I was on CloudyRom, wanted to go back to Stock. Flashed stock (20h flashable) and it booted all fine. Downloaded supersu from playstore to get root and supersu wanted to go into TWRP. Stupidly enough I didn't think and obviously there is no TWRP in that stock that I flashed... All I get is this green robot "working" with a bar underneath. Can't get into download mode now.
Can anybody help?
Thanks!
edit: somehow the phone went into stock now... this can be deleted. thanks
Hello everyone!
So i installed the CM12 rom for Moto X Play xt1562 version. Everything went fine until i did a factory reset. I first had a bootloop and could go inside the rom again. Then i did a factory reset and now i cant get pass TWRP..
I have been searching on the forum for clues why and how to solve my problem but cannot find anything.
Just to describe what message i get is :
" failed to mount /dev/block/bootdevice/by-name/system at/system: No such file or directory."
I have the "stock" rom aswell but the same message appear when i do this
I'm very happy if someone have the answare to my million dollar question!
Thanks in advance!
I'm confused. You flashed cm12, then it booted fine. You went back into twrp and did a factory reset? At this point you couldn't boot anymore. You then tried to flash your stock ROM with twrp?
I know there may be a language barrier, but I'm having trouble following. Are you trying to go back to stock to sell?

Had a hard time explaining this problem.
I worked it out and got it fixed by installing the newest version of TWRP but when i'm trying to install the latest "stock" version of Moto X (found in this forum, EU-Version) it just fails. So i have to install CM12 and dont have ny choice.
Thanks for the answare dictionary!
Off topic, is it possible to install another camera then stock Cm12?

You can't install the stock ROM by recovery. You have to extract the contents of the zip and use fastboot from your computer to flash. Glad you're at least up and running though.
Yes you can install Alternate cameras.

Just how are you trying to flash it? Are you unzipping the zip, and flashing each step individually, like posted in the linked thread?
Flash stock recovery I imagine it's checking the signature and failing when it sees twrp.
Oh and I've installed moto camera app and gallery they work great. Available as a flashable zip in the camera thread I posted. A user shared the link.

I flashed stock while I didn't flash the stock recovery over my twrp. Granted, on reboot I had the android lying down, but it flashed no problem. Just went and flashed twrp again and all was well.
