Hey guys, Just got my acer iconia yesterday and its already rooted, I got an EVO 3D and i need to flash so this will hold me over till we find root for the 3D. And besides this is a really nice table for sure. What Im wondering is would it be possible to have Amon_RA recovery ported over to this device. CMW is good but Amon_RA is great and, atleast with phones much more dependable.
link to Amon RA recovery.

You would need to ask the developer of the recovery.

No you dont flash back to stock through a .zip update. You have to follow those instructions if you want your phone to be unrooted and back stock. Its not a hard process to do
Will this restore OTA update capabilities. I've read on other threads where once rooted it will still download but not INSTALL the updates, anyone know??
Thanks
Hello guys!
I cant seem to get clockwork 3.0 installed, all i can get is AR-2.2.x, so i was wondering on how i can get 3.0 so i can do an official nandroid backup, and also is there a thread that has the evo shift radios posted. I couldnt seem to find them and i want to make sure i have them current so i can experience 4G correctly when i go on vacation! thanks!!!

have you backed up your WiMax keys via the instructions on the rooting thread and/or followed these steps for recovery?
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=10951380&postcount=2
There ARE no updated radios and the recovery you have now will do a nandroid backup just fine.
How did you get ar on the shift???

by AR do you mean Amon-RA 2.2.x? I tried his recovery for the EVO just to see if it would work and I couldn't get it to boot into recovery. I would love to see an Amon-RA based recovery and would happily donate to get one. I know Cloverdale was working on porting it over, but he doesn't have much time to work on it.
Yes that's what I meant by AR, the way I got it, was by putting one of the imgs from another post and booted to recovery, and had it update the recovery menu.. I never did this on my orkiginal evo but is it key to backup my wimax keys?
Tell us your amon secrets! I hate clockwork :v(

I hope I have time to do it soon. There have been some major issues at work, and I do not have a spare moment these days.
Hey guys first i'm sorry that i've been so inactive here my girlfriend is trying to teach me to draw x3 (I take my time)
but i had to see that i'm sooo outdated i'm still using 1.4 and CWM 2.x.x.x D:!
i wanted to ask i want to flash 2.0 with recovery but i have to install the new recovery so if i install that can i then still restore backups i made with 2.x?
and if i **** the installation of the recovery is the phone then bricked?

Yes you can backup in 3.x are the same as 2.x
and if i **** the installation of the recovery is the phone then bricked?

the last recovery 3.0.2.4 works with any backup i have tested myself and if you have any problem try restore in parts in advance restore. If you **** up with the recovery means you have flash it wrong but honestly there is not way to **** that up but if you want t be carefull then run
fastboot erase recovery
... and then
fastboot flash recovery recovery_xxxxxxxx
if something goes wrong wich i doubt it just reflash recovery partition .
Cheers!
Thank you very much both of you two<3
could anyone give me the link they used so i'm sure i do it right xD?
i put the images in c:/android right? and then i run fastboot and use the commands as i'm used too right? =3

ii am running the prime 1.4 rom on my acer, i like an idiot failed to back up all the partitions before i flashed it. but i did make a nandroid back up.
is there a safe way to flash that back up, or an update.zip from an OTA to return to stock?
sorry for the newb moment. thanks in advance

Well, I think at least, you should not purely restore the nandroid backup as it will flash the kernel without running itsmagic.
For the other part, better let other gurus to answer
Thats my concern. ill just wait, not like its 100% needed now but i just wanted to know a way out of my situation, if there is one!

I think if you flash one of the full packages you should be fine since it contains everything needed to take the tablet back to stock.

Will this stock rom also contain the stock recovery image or will that have to be flashed seperately with running itsmagic?

oh this sounds great...
so fallback to (maybe) a fallback backup of your old firmware or (more likely) fallback to a specific firmware ?

What version did you flash? If it was 3.0.1 it's ridiculously buggy. Ideally you want 3.1 so you can root it with sc2k's GingerBreak modification then flash CWM then a custom 3.2.1 ROM, Thor's ICS ROM or one of the Leak-based ICS ROMs

I unlocked the bootloader and Installed ICS but the problem is active yet but in ICS is even worse, it shutdown by itselfs atleast in HC it keeps saying Android System with the Shutdown in the center of the screen.

Not sure why you installed ICS. That just compounds the issue.
You can take a look at this thread, and try NVFlash. This guy had a similar issue.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1579490
Considering you were able to install ICS, I would like to ask if you did this from CWM recovery? My guess, is there is a ton of corrupted data in the partitions. This would explain things a little. If you can get it back to HC, then you can run a dmesgview and get your UID number. Then you should be able to run TimmyDeans tool in the General thread (I believe).
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1307539
My guess, is that your EC Pwr control got messed up along with corrupted data. I would advise staying away from the ICS Beta leaks, and just get a good HC up and running.

Sure, I made it thru the Recovery. Can you help me with something really quick?, I think I can fix everything if you download some file that is in a Russian forum but I can't have access to register due to my bad russian lol.
I solved everything installing ICS then installing EC_ROM for ICS. =)
If someone need the files I have it.
Thanks for all the help and God bless you all!.0

As always, glad you got it going!
Now, you may want to edit your post, or create a new reply, and attach that EC Rom flash for ICS, just in case others may need it.
