Hi there.
I recently had to unroot my phone as I lost all my apps and no other method I could find will let me have the latest Market and other apps. (Did look in Slideme but it didn't have ANY of the apps I use).
Anyway, I read that I need to downgrade to cupcake to root it, hence by doing that I will also be forced to downgrade market etc.
Anyway I get to keep these apps?
Cheers (BTW I'm from UK)

I'm thinking someone forgot to flash the htc recovery image.
Anyways, root, flash htc recovery image, flash cyanogen, post in the right section, bingo.
gonna get flamed cause you posted in the wrong section. but I'm assuming you didnt follow directions and didn't flash the defranged zip file before flashing tcyanogen or duper D rom's... http://dx.infernix.net/DRC83_base_defanged.zip
You will have the latest market after rooting...if that is your question.

when you root your phone, you can then flash a 'modified rom' this keeps root and also enables more features/speed improvements. If your looking for a stock rom but with root download Enom's TheOfficials T-mobile UK. Its basically the latest t-mobile G1 Rom but with root and with working market and all apps. If your more adventurous try SuperCDSIv4 from HTCClays, its extremely fast. Using right now with T-mobile UK and i get all apps. I did have to download MarketEnabler 3.0.8 and change my sim operator number to 23430 (t-mobile uk) as i couldnt see beebplayer, but after changing i can see that now. All apps working.

Thank you! And firstly thank you for not moaning at wrong section (I was confused between this and the other one)
Anyway I have rooted the G1 (gone back to old version, done the telenet lot and installed the recovery image (armons one), I also installed HardSPL. But I cannot find the Enoms images, could you please point me in the right direction so I can get to the latest Dounut and get the market, as If I was to update straight to Cyanogen now I would get the market

Yes you would man....You flash a rom that just has the google apps first and then without rebooting flash the rom of choice on top of it...Super D and Cyanogen both are like this....Most others are not.
For real....Flash the defanged base... LINK RIGHT HERE http://dx.infernix.net/DRC83_base_defanged.zip
and then flash this http://www.benbuchacher.com/superD/2010/03/24/superd-1-10-2
Lol that will get you Super D Black with nexus themed launcher and THE LATEST MARKET.
I also recommend Amon Ra's Recovery image 1.6.2 prior to flashing a new rom.http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=566669&highlight=Sense
Also might wanna flash the Danger SPL. Or use fire rats script. Either way, you have a lot of catching up with the current times....read the cyanogen wiki....lots of info there.
I might sound stupid but what is the difference between Amon_Ra's recovery and Cyanogen's recovery image?

Cyanogen -- Oldie but a goodie.
Amon_Ra -- New with more functionality.
You could also just search and read up on them.
Hey XDA.
I'm trying to revert my myTouch 4G back to its original state.
And I'm kinda new to this, so I need help on doing this.
I installed the Desire Z ROM onto it.
I need to get it back to the Original myTouch.
I thought I backed up my .IMG file, but I guess I didn't.
So can anyone help me on doing this?
Thanks!
Please post questions in q&a section. And the stock image is in the rom bible.

There is a "downgrade" guide... that is your best bet... be sure to revert the gfree if you followed the "Ultimate S=off" method

The Unlockr has a stock MySense Nandroid back up along with the a stock recovery image so you can flash the Nandroid backup from a recovery screen, then flash the stock recovery image if you want to go all the way back to stock. along with how to undo g/free and turn s=on.
Please post questions in Q&A section.
Can someone please upload their system.img from a Nandroid backup of CM7 on a G2? I bought a phone off of eBay and the SD card slot is broken. eBay seems to be siding with the seller so it looks like I am stuck with the phone. It's already rooted, I just need a system.img to flash CM7 with! If anyone could be of assistance I would greatly appreciate it!
If you don't mind waiting for a bit I will be able to do it for you

Thanks! I am about to go to work so no rush. I really appreciate the help
I'm upping to dropbox right now if you have dropbox or something I can give you link to download from phone and I'm at work right now
http://dl.dropbox.com/u/23869305/system.img
Here is the Cm system link, this is a back up of cm7 it should be my back up if not i will do a recent one and up it for you again
No one seems to show GEN2 any love. Its all GEN1 and CUS7. For those that want GEN2 (I live in US), well here you are. A full image for Acer_A500_7.006.01_COM_GEN2. This is not edited in any way. (This means not rooted). This is probably not going to be useful to the average person. For a modified (but rooted) ROM of this, look here
This is not OTA and can be used without ClockWorkMod (CWM) or any modifications of any kind.
Unzip Acer_A500_7.006.01_COM_GEN2.zip and place update.zip on the root of your SD card.
I should also mention this is Honeycomb 3.2 for those that don't keep track of the build numbers (and who can blame you?), and this DOES have a locked bootloader. But, nevertheless, and valid source for flashing and other things!

Enjoy!
thank you so very much for this. Where did you get it? as soon as i get it downloaded Im going to add it to dropbox and post the link here if that is ok with you.
Here is a dropbox link to the file: http://dl.dropbox.com/u/26368270/Android/tablet/Acer_A500_7.006.01_COM_GEN2.zip
Where does anyone get anything? Google, where else?
Do whatever you want with the file. If you search the web log enough you'll find it, too.
Hi. I have a question....is it rooted? I would hate to update it and lose root. Thanks. Excuse the question, Im fairly new to the Acer scene (1 week).

This is not rooted, it is also bootloader locked. I do not recommend this for you. Try another rom that is 3.2, there are plenty now!
Ty, been waiting for a GEN2 to add to my collection.
Thanks for the heads up. Im running Honeyvillain 1.2 but Im curious about the GEN2, as Im in the US as well. I dont know what the differences are, but so far its working smooth, smoother than any other ROM out there.

Yea I wouldn't worry 2 much about GEN2. If you have a choice, get GEN2. Otherwise it doesnt matter. The differences are mostly system files related to keyboards and databases and such from what I have dissected.
Like spelling color as colour and other oddities.
That and different bloatware, not all the same as the US

The reason I asked where you got it, is because I have been searching since friday for this. I have been searching google for every keyword I could think of.
bdubble said:
thank you so much. you posting this got my tab unbricked. it was saying boot verified failed at the acer logo, i stupidly tried to downgrade from 3.2. i used this and the stock recovery and it booted. i tried with every stock rom on the forum, but couldnt get the decrypter to work, finally your post saved me having to ship it to acer in texas.

Vache has a downgrade image to Acer_A501_1.309.02_COM_GEN1 that will work with the new locked bootloader. Root that image then install CWM THEN install a custom rom. That will prevent the boot verification issue!

Thank you for this info. As soon as I get my replacement, I will do this if needed and install your 3.2 rom. I love having root, but want a 3.2 rom that is not from an a501 constantly asking me to install sim card.

That problem can be solved by adding the line "ro.carrier=wifi-only" in the buildprop (you can do this with es file explorer or root explorer) and reboot.
sorry mis post wrong thread

I live in the us and while I have rooted my a500 I haven't installed a custom rom yet because the few stock roms are gen1. I want to stay as close to stock as possible and would love to have this 7.006.01_com_gen2 with just root and and bootloader fixed. I thought your "clean" rom might work for me but I'd prefer to have just the stock rom with few modifications. Any idea where I might find something like that?

I am using this rom from what I can tell so far its Very Stock Rooted and no issues at all.
Thanks. I installed this over stock slightly modified 3.1 I did wipe /format partitions. Then restored my ti backup.complete secess
Ok over the past 2 days I have searched over almost every single thread on the MY Touch 4g forums and can not seem to find a definite answer on this question:
Is there any way to take a rooted S-OFF, the Engineering HBoot & the ClockworkMod Recovery, 2.2.1 Stock build using the instructions on cyanogenmod.com/wiki/HTC_Glacier:_Full_Update_Guide and upgrade it back to the Stock t-mobile 2.3.4 build without unrooting etc?
I am not overly interested in installing cm7, although I did have a great experience with it on my t-mobile HD2 before the screen decided to stop working for the 2nd time. I actually did enjoy using the stock 2.3.4 build on the mt4g but would like to have more power over my phone (such as changing the hosts files to get rid of ads, remove bloatware apps I'm not interested in myself, etc).
All threads I have read more or less say once you downgrade, root and install clockwork recovery to install a rom of your choice, well I would like that rom to be the stock 2.3.4 build. Other threads state that in order to install the 2.3.4 build you need to install using the bootloader(which would unroot your phone) and not clockwork recovery.
If someone could please point me in the right direction to accomplish this goal you will seriously make my day/night/week/month.
If something is in the works that's great, I'm willing to wait it out. If this is a completely impossible goal so be it, I'll use CM7 mod.
