1.0:
Initial release of 3.1 acer rom.
Its just great to see a lot of roms available for the iconia!!
Villain is here!!
Thanks Richard!
Honey, you did it!
thx ! download started
Thanks, just what i wanted! Can you post the MD5? I have aa5e49eed4e254134ce1ee64354be40
edit: nevermind
edit 2: flash went perfect, rom is very fast. Everything is working great, just like 3.1 out of the box with a little root sprinkles on top I like having Dolby back, one of Iconia's strengths.
I'm looking forward to giving this a run. Great work!
work well!
thanks
Very nice indeed, thanks......
i whink this rom is the nearest to stock rom...
want to know what acer actually fix in this long awaited rom
downloading it now
I've just noticed something interesting. I attempted to play the same test files that I played on PRIMEE and can only run them in software rendering mode, however in PRIMEE they ran with hardware decoding. Perhaps Acer has deliberately disabled mkv due to the lack of AC3 support?
I wonder if it's possible to port the MKV functionality from PRIMEE? I have a lot of MKVs that don't have AC3 sound that would be nice to watch without reencoding into mp4 containers.
It'll be a tough choice between SRS and MKV support.
Edit: Scratch that, all the mp4 files I tested on PRIMEE don't work either
INSTALLED and booted well
one issue i got now, external sd in setting - storage says not available, but using file manager HD i can explore to the folders..
Richard, one suggestion I have is to replace the wpasupplicant file to support adhoc wifi. This is important for us non-3G guys.
1) copy to \system\bin replacing the original
2) set exec permissions for all
View attachment wpa_supplicant_xoom_wifi_adhoc.zip
Tested and working, tethered using Barnacle (NAT) on Samsung Galaxy phone.
Can someone try this 1080 mp4 and see if it plays ok? It worked perfectly in Primee but looked like a slideshow in the stock Acer 3.01 and Virtuous Picasso.

HI RICHARD,

So it has to be something to do with the Acer rom as it works fine on a Xoom with 3.01 and Primee on an Iconia. Acer sucks by the sound of it.

Samsung vs Asus ereader app
What is the main difference between the two? The Samsung one was more buggy in my opinion. Where the bugs fixed?
look at changes, i just replace and add some stuff to it.
i have no problem with samsung reader.
I am using dexters primee rom 3.2 and it is very nice...
The only thing, did you fix the screen ripping while browsing?
My test site for browsing is always beforeitsnews.com as it seems quite heavy, and I use it a lot.
The browser in the galaxy rom was far smoother.

this is "fixed" olny in galaxy firmware, but Opera 11 browser is fine.

I believe if you flash this rom, you will be in 3.2 wether you are currently on 3.1 or even 3.01....acer is currently still using 3.1, no 3.2 released yet but thi rom is based on Asus HC3.2...
yes this is HC 3.2 Asus base, you can flash it on every version firmware you have, just need CWM.
DO A AUDIO FIX Please!> the sound volume seem too low
i have very loud volume in games, movie, mp3.
What exactly makes this different from Dexter's port? Also, I am assuming you asked if you could use his ROM right? I just want to make sure so nobody gets in trouble.
All -
Would someone who's updated to 8.6.5.9-20110816 (the version with official Netflix support) be so kind as to upload libnvomx.so from /system/lib?
I'd like to try using this with the Iconia A500 HC3.2 to see if we can't get Netflix support.
Thanks!
Here it is. Delete the zip extension.

Freshly built Android 4.4.4 ROM based on Omnirom KitKat !
The Team 'IconiaHD' is proud to present a new ROM for your Acer A500 or A501 tablet.
This small team is composed of:
- HenrikE: A200 owner, responsible for an unofficial CM-10.2 build for the A200
- Doume: A200 owner, experienced linux developer
- macia10: A501 owner, tester
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",

"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
This is essentially the same rom as we published for the A200 here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2693179 and here: http://www.acertabletforum.com/forum/acer-a200-roms/10043-rom-a200-omnirom-kitkat-4-4-2-a.html
We have now modified our sources to support also the A500!
Why Omnirom, and not Cyanogenmod ?
Google , through AOSP repository, has dropped support for the Tegra 2 platform. The Tegra 2 does not support the 'neon' instruction set, and more importantly relies on a set of old (ICS) proprietary hardware libraries. AOSP has dropped support for both non-neon devices and the older hardware libraries.
Cyanogenmod has decided to follow AOSP on this and has dropped Tegra 2 support since CM-10.2. With CM-10.2 the differences were not yet very big and could be overcome. But with CM-11 it has become an unreasonably large effort to add Tegra 2 support.
Only Omnirom, for now, has included the forward-ported code in its repository to support machines like Acer A500
How to install
Recovery
To flash this rom, it's necessary to have a recent recovery (at least CWM 6.0.4.4 or TWRP 2.6.3.1) having Selinux capabilities.
Otherwise the flash operation fails with status 0 or status 7. There are also some problems installing GApps with Thor's recovery v.1.8.1.
We recommend using CWM 6.0.4.5 by nelsontky: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2583710
Flashing
Boot in recovery mode to flash the KitKat Rom.
First, don't forget to execute a 'Wipe Data/Factory reset'
Flash the KitKat Rom
Flash the Minimal Gapps
Do a 'wipe cache partition'
Flash the SuperSU zip file if you need it
Flash the Netflix fix if you need it
And reboot System !
Be patient on first boot... There's a lot of background work to do, before coming to the 'Welcome' screen. Don't worry if you are stuck with a black screen for several minutes. Next boot will be much faster.
After first configuration, it's recommended to reboot the tablet to avoid some unstabilities after 1st boot.
Enjoy KitKat !

For the A200 the Pico package is the only one that is small enough so we generally recommend that. The A500 has more space in the system partition and should be able to use the larger packages as well.
SuperSU is here: (needed only if you wish to have a full rooted access)
SuperSU is needed for root, get the latest CWM flashable zip from here:
[2014.02.06] SuperSU v1.93 - xda-developers
Netflix fix for builds 1-4 (not needed for build 5) is here: netflixfix.zip
Flash in recovery. It will just copy this simple script to init.d. It is run during boot and changes a setting in the Netflix configuration to use a player backend that works with the Tegra 2. This is a workaround for a bug in Netflix that makes it choose a video player backend that is incompatible with the Tegra 2. The config file is created the first time Netflix is started, so the very first time you start Netflix it will force close. After that, reboot, and then Netflix should work.
Remember : in all cases, it's a good idea to make a backup before installing!
We're not responsible, in any way, if you brick your tablet!
Big thanks to:
- the Omnirom team
- pjsports for the A500 JB kernel and device tree
- nelsontky for building the recovery
- and everyone else that has been working on the Iconia A500 / A200!
The kernel, and the device tree are available at GitHub: IconiaHD Github
Known issues:
All builds
Noise in audio playback, caused by a too low default minimum CPU frequency. Solved by increasing minimum frequency to 312 MHz.
-In Settings / About tablet, tap build number 7 times until you get a message "you are now a developer". This enables the performance menu.
-In settings / Performance, increase minimum cpu frequency to 312 MHz. Also tick "set on boot" to make it permanent.

I'd really prefer to see someone port a clean working copy of CyanogenMod 11 to this device, personally. the TegraOwners team already has a working port of OmniRom on the A500, which is a little laggy, but otherwise fully functional(including netflix, sound recorder, etc.)

Well then why not try doing it yourself?
The main idea with this rom is to provide an open source alternative for the A500. Not everyone appreciates the closed source policy at the "other forum".
sorry, I sort of worded my post a little harshly and it came out wrong.
I'm actually plenty happy to see an alternative to their roms, and to see that someone is working on the A500 at all.
I meant to say that although it's nice to see, I would personally rather see someone try to port it(even if it's a failed attempt, and post their results so others can try and help out), even though it's a lot of work and a lot harder than AOSP at the moment.
Unfortunately I don't have the knowledge or skills to get any rom working on any device. I've even tried compiling roms before, and failed. Maybe someday!

Ok no problem. We actually did try to build CM first. But we could never get it to display the user interface because of the missing support for our graphics libraries. When we realized how big the effort would be to get it working, and that support was already available in OmniROM, we switched. I don't know about Thor, but I'm guessing his reason for switching to omni were similar.
Our sources for cm11 are on github, in branch "cm11" and only in the a200 device tree. It's a fair bit behind the OmniROM version now though. It would be better to take the omnirom branch and modify it back to CM format. The differences between CM and Omni device trees are not very big.
Edit: I should add that the challenging part would be to modify the CM android_frameworks_av and android_frameworks_native packages to add support for the tegra2 libraries. There alse seems to be a quite new bug in the CM build system that makes it compile in neon instructions even when it shouldn't.
Prefer anything over CM, thanks! I'll have to reroot since I upgraded to the latest version of ICS. I'll report back any issues.

Henrik & the team, many thanks for your efforts. I never thought Kitkat would ever reach the shores of the A500. I thought all Rom support had all but ended.

Nice work, I thought for sure that we would never see 4.4 on an A500. I have it flashed and running. I tried Netflix and it force closes. Also the video recording doesn't work.

Yes, overclocking is included. You just have to enable it in the developer options.
I found a workaround for Netflix here: https://github.com/CyanogenMod/android_device_hardkernel_odroidu2/blob/cm-10.2/conf/98netflix
It seems to work also on this rom, it displays the interface now instead of just closing. But nobody in the team has a Netflix account so we haven't been able to get further than that. I made a simple flashable zip to install the fix. Simply flash it in the recovery. It will just copy one file, and not touch anything else. The download link is in the first post.
Flashed and it worked. I was able to stream and all good. Awesome!

USB Device Not Recognized
Hey everyone,
Sorry if this is a dumb question... I just picked up an A500 tonight, and can't get the USB drivers to work. Specifically, when I plug in the cable I get "USB Device Not Recognized". As a result, I can't get into boot loader mode, etc. I downloaded the Acer driivers, the Universal Android Drivers, etc, and it does the same for all of them. Any ideas?
Thanks!
Mandy
