Can anybody provide the recovery.img.old taken from /data/data/com.interphaze.AcerRecoveryInstaller after installation of CWM from device with Acer_A500_1.016.05_COM_GEN1.
Check your version in About tablet > Build number.
AFAIK ... there has only been 1 stock recovery...
so there is no need for a rom number specific recovery.img
you can reflash the USA recovery found in the Acer Recovery Installer program and you will have the stock recovery
unless you are doing something else ( adb pushing individual files...etc )... ignore my answer
thanks. i am worried that i would ot get the OTA update if i am on the CWM recovery.
Hi
please advice shortly if i'm correct
device LT15i. unlocked BL, updated from 2.3.4 (0.62) to 4.0.4 (.587), then kernel downgraded to 4.0.3, then rooted and updated to the last .587
what i want now:
i prefer to get CM10 or MIUI v4 or any other custom rom, but i can not ___as i can not get CMW installed___
(x parts does not install even it says OK, custom rom app does not override x-parts mess it did and refuses install cwm 3.x.x.x on to unsuscessful 5.x.x.x., I can not find stand alone recovery.img for ARC etc... )
please advice if i should look for CWM installled somehow!!! (HOW?)
or should I
1: install Doom kernel, which suppose to be with CWM and then proceed to any other rom through CWM right after that kernel?
or
2: wipe totally to official SEUS ROM no root... and start over again as i did already?
sorry if i got lost somewhere here (and could not find my answer in other topics)
i'd appreciate your replies.
thx
Download cm, extract only boot.img from it other leave untouch.
Fastboot kernel on phone, it will have cwm, (put rom on sd card before fastbooting) and then in cwm flash rom and gapps (finf by your self and put on sd card before fastboot)

hi everyone
i'm explaining the problem that's getting me crazy!
I've got an a500 tab. it was HoneyComb 3.1 at first, I downloaded ICS 4.0.3 Stock Rom and installed it via SD Card, Power + Vol- button.
i've been using it a few monthes now i want to use a custom rom like tegraowners JB.
my current version of rom (ICS 4.03) can't be rooted with ICS Root for a500 because it's version is'nt supported.
so i decided to install a 3.1 HC Stock rom, root it and use custom roms.
i downloaded 3.1 stock rom, named it update.zip and copied it on a sd card.
inserted SD card in tab and turned it on with Power + Vol-. here is the problem!
first i see recovery mode loading then an android logo with a (!) sign on it.
cdn.gooyait.com/uploads/android-recovery-mode-600x276.jpg
and tab get's restarted...
any idea?

Stock recovery probably isn't designed to flash anything other than ICS. (Or it can't go backwards?). As for rooting, the blackthud3r ICS root tool oughta get ya done. (There are 2 methods, search and find one. For your case I recommend number 2)
[Anyway, don't worry about rooting the stock ROM, on an A500 this doesn't help you get jellybean.]<- MAY BE WRONG. In order to install a custom ROM, you must install a custom bootloader and recovery. Here is a guidehttp://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1622425 Once you've gotten through that(and assuming you haven't died of heart attack), you can install a custom ROM. Just follow the instructions on said ROM's thread. My favorite(albeit, a bit buggy) one is here :http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2239476&highlight=jellybean+rom&nocache=1. Good luck!:good:
EDIT:
You need a CPUID to flash your bootloader. I don't know if you need root to get that.
Install a custom bootloader
You shold read about custom bootloader, it isnt that difficult, you get root of your iconia, download a flex software it automaticly downloads the latest recovery I recommend TWRP, and from ther you could touch the option install and select you zip file
Hello everybody, I come here because I have unbrick my A500 with a zip named "root-3.2.1-V4", this zip use EUUS acer tool to flash Android 3.2.1 (it seems like a stock rom with superuser installed and OTA disabled) with CWM 5.x and HC bootloader I presume, so I want to flash an ICS bootloader and lastest thor recovery for flash the lastest Android 5.1.1 but I don't find how to flash the newbootloader without the OTA and update.zip (because all link are dead), I have try this tutorial but i can only select the fourth recovery/bootloader and it make nvflash error :

Hello,
My device is an Asus Zenfone 3 ZE552KL with TWRP 3.1.0.
I need the original stock recovery for ASUS_Z012D-WW-14.2020.1703.28 (Android N).
Is it possible to build it from the firmware?
Otherwise, where can I find it?
Thank you in advance for your help.
nobody can help me
Are you running on 1703.28 currently?
Do a TWRP backup and then dirty flash the stock image on top, it shouldn't change any data or settings but will replace recovery (happened to me when I updated from 1701).
I'm curious, why do you want to go back to stock recovery? I'll never go back, lol
Edit: if anyone with the stock 1703.28 firmware and root can run an adb shell and make a backup of it using " dd if=/dev/block/mmcblk0p59 of=/sdcard/recovery.bin" and upload it.
I am currently rooted and to install the latest firmware stock, I have to do it from stock recovery because it does not work from TWRP.
After that, I will reinstall TRWP
The stock recovery can be downloaded from asus site :
https://www.asus.com/fr/Phone/ZenFone-3-ZE552KL/HelpDesk_Download/
Or direct download link : (1.8 Gb)

@olivierzx
This is the full firmware, but stock recovery is not available.
Unless you know a way to build it from the firmware.

You do not need stock recovery to install the stock rom.
Just edit the update script, see this
