Hi all,
I am currently using vegacomb 3.2 bulid 9b from the installer.exe. But when i tried to boot in recovery to apply update 3 9b it just boots in normal way. it doesn't hang on reboot to force power it off and restart(The way which is mentioned in the thread).i searched the whole threads at xda and tablet roms for getting into recovery but nothing works.
So, is there any other way to update the zip through pc or within the tab itself????? i already tried with rom manager and clockwork_recovery_3.0.2.4_vega_donotflash.zip but doesn't work.
Plz help me in applying the update.
Thanks..

Hello,
I try to Unbrick my A500 with Acer_A500_0.000.00_1.122.01_EMEA_GEN5_update.zip.
At the first time it works, I can boot and I want to flash the system.ing and boot.img for Acer_A500_1.141.07_COM_GEN1 with the Acer ROM Flasher to get german language support.
The HowTo in den Android-hilfe tells my that I will get an error after reboot (right) and than I have to flash another update (can´t post link because I´m a noobie)
Now I´m stick in a bootloaderloop (android logo) and nothing will help.
I try flash the unbrick update again, but the only thing I get is the Bootloop at the android logo.
I need some serious help for this.
Thanks guys

Doesn't sound like your getting into recovery with the update.zip. make sure you keep holding down the vol- button until you see the little green man. Don't let go of it when you see the big "Acer".
After doing the update.zip to unbrick, run itsmagice BEFORE running Acer Rom Flasher. Then flash the boot and system images from that thread. Then reboot after the 6 minute window. It should boot normally.
Or just stick to the instructions in the other thread... I think your just not getting into recovery correctly.
PS.. Acer Rom Flasher is going to get an update when I get the chance.

Well now I´m chinese, but I try the Acer_A500_0.000.00_1.122.01_EMEA_GEN5_update now.
Edit: It does work. Now I try the boot.img and system.img.
i had same problem
I had the same problem with that zip. It was corrupted. Found an other source update.acer.zip and it worked, but some chinese apps came with it. List few other thing. The update.acer.zip would hot boot. The zip had folder with an other update.acer.zip in it. After extracting the zip from the zip it worked.

First off, get your UID number just in case you need it. You can get it in the Dev forum (sticky). Always have your UID written down somewhere.
Then go to the "all files" Sticky thread in the Dev forum. Where they have all the Acer roms and updates.
Download 2 or 3 of the a500 ICS Update files. These are full update files.
Decrypt them if needed, then pull the update.zip out. Copy to EXT SD Card, and boot holding Vol+ and PWR till you see the text about installing, then release.
Might have to try more than one, but eventually one should install. These are full update roms, not patches.
Should give you a stock ICS. Hey, check your camera, might start working again

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?
I don't know maybe i've downloaded the wrong rom.
if yes please link to the correct rom for thei version:
Kernel Version:
2.6.39.4+
Image Version:
Acer_AV041_A500_RV21RB01_WW_GEN1
Build Number:
Acer_AV041_A500_0.014.00_WW_GEN1
PLEASE!

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
Please help needed!!
I'm stuck here for 3 days
Ok I'm going to tell everything I did,,
My Gionee E7 is indian version.
First I rooted my phone with kingo Root.
Than I flashed CWM chinese version.
I upgraded my system to kitkat and changed the recovery to stock.
I used it for a week than some how my music player and gallery were corrupted.
I don't have any rom so I download one but it was in chinese, flashed it to my gionee. than after rooting,,
I flashed the CWM, same I flashed weeks ago
Here my problem started :crying:
The CWM is not starting. I used recoery tool to boot into recovery after boot up it shows black screen. I used every method holding Vol+ and power button but the same result.
than I tired to get back to my stock recovery but it does the same.
flashed many times both recoveries but didn't worked.
I searched a lot and find a TWRP. I flashed it and wow it worked Finally I can boot into recoery mode.
Now I find the Nandroid backup of indian version. I made it a zip and flashed it through twrp.
My phone is back to indian version but its slow, not too much but its slow; camera, gallery and other apps take some time to open. I can't make or rcv phone calls. Now what i did is download the update form System update.
Now i got kitkat rom.zip but twrp failed to install it.
Some one on the internet was saying that its the problem with my Kernel. I have the latest kernel so CWM won't work cuz it uses old kernel and display drivers.
My
android version is 4.2.2
Kernel version is 3.4.0-svn2155
I also got TWRP for lolipop,
and I patched binary_update in my kitkat rom too but TWRP can't flash it

Hello my friend, please help me.
I am trying to flash stock inidan rom 4.2 but.. I installed all CWM for E7 found on the internet and I am getting black screen. I managed to Install TWRP but TWRP cannot flash the rom that I need to flash. I flashed a chinese 4.2 but is piece of garbage..
gngc-download-tool said that the com port is closed.
I have windows 64 is this the problem causing gngc not working?
No its not, it is working on 64bit windows very well.
In TWRP factory reset and format system and data, than install
Chinese 4.2 ROM. After that boot it and try it again.
It should work!

Help
I just rooted my gionee elife e7. Flashed the chinese recovery which seemed to be the only one which would be compatible. But, while changing a few setting using pimp my rom, the software just stopped working. Errors keep showing up on the screen - "system.ui is not working", "android app is not working", I cannot even go the settings because "settings is not working". Third party apps still seem to work, so, whatsap and stuff continue to function. Doing a factory reset or flashing firmware again seem to be the only viable option.
But, when I try to load up the bootloader using the power and volume keys, it gets stuck on the screen showing the gionee logo and it reads 'fastboot mode' in the bottom left hand side corner. So,
a. can you offer any advice which may be useful ?
b. can you share the link from where you got a TWRP recovery which will work on the Elife ?
c. do you have any idea what exactly went wrong here ?
Any help you can provide will be appreciated because, it's my mausi's phone and I will have a very tough time explaining what really went down here.
Regards,
Today I tried to update my firmware to 13.10.10.34.
The phone rebooted and then it told me that the update failed.
Now it does not offer the update anymore.
How can I update the firmware?
I have rooted ZE500KL with 13.10.7.1(Andriod M).
I'm having the same problem similar as above. I have lost the TWRP and seems like have no stock recovery as well. I have this problem right after attempting to install stock recovery using flashify. I guess i have installed the wrong version of stock recovery and right after the boot up, i never had any chances to see the recovery window (power button + volume down). It's only stuck at Asus logo. Please anyone help me!
Download and flash official recovery,go into recovery and wipe data and cache partition,download latest firmware from official asus site and in recovery select adb sideload and from adb write adb sideload name_of_firmware.zip reboot,wait 10-15min. And enjoy?
Hi im having asus zenfone 2 laser ZE550KL , few days before i got a update notification for 150 mb i updated it but after updated mobile is shut down and restarted and open with aa black colpur html format program that contains reboot ppwer off etc

As you have already rooted your phone, I'd suggest you to flash a custom ROM as you can get Nougat and they are much better than stock Asus ROMs.
But if you want to update, download it from official Asus website and flash it from recovery mode.
