Hi there, these are actually what you need. Just boot to recovery (holding volume down button while your tablet restarts) and select Update Firmware. Follow on screen instructions and you will have the latest Official Firmware from Archos.
Hope it helps.

What do think, why did they call the recovery system "recovery system".
There's a menu named update firmware (if your stock OS is gone it's equal to install firmware).
Do i need to say more?
If you still need help, ask for it!

Restore to 3.0

anyone have a restore file (Full restore) for A500 in Thailand
I try Acer_A500_0.000.00_1.016.01_COM_GEN1 in link http://cdn.acer.futuredial.com/Acer_A500_0.000.00_1.016.02_COM_GEN1_1300976069475_9bbd8228.zip
from http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1113878
But can't open file may be file is damage
Can I use Different such as Acer_A500_0.000.00_1.016.01_COM_GEN1
How to flash update package :
Once the desired file downloaded, you have to use Acer Update Decryter to decrypt them.
After decrypting the file, you have to extract the update.zip from it, put it on an external SDCard (does not work on internal memory) and boot your tablet with Vol- & Power. The update will be launch automatically.
thank you very much i'm updating.

And I went floor 3 at Acer Dealer, they have a tablet, the version is
Kernel 2.6.36.3-00001-gf991e5d
Build Acer_A500_1.016.04_COM_GEN1
so I am sure the version from THAILAND is this one.

Just Copy the update.zip to ur Micro-sd. Then shut down device.
Press both power button + Volume (-) to run recovery.
I mean Kernel not Rom T_T
Ops Sorry.To install Kernel there are lot of them in the first page.But why do u want to install Kernel? I think that u want to back to original ROM for Official OTA.
^^ first that i want to back 3.0 because i want to update by acer to 3.1.
but in facebook acer thailand have many people that update to 3.1 by acer
have a problem. Now I choose to use custom and kernel from this web site ^^
It fast and fun than update by acer . I can try many rom and kernel.
Thank you for answer me hope you can understand my English we also Thai ^^
You have MSN? If have can you tell me.
Thai Language
Hi,
I bought my Iconia in Thailand and was disappointed that it didn't have thai language support, but I've tried many different ROMs and I am now using Virtuous Galaxy which is a great ROM, 3.1 from Samsung Tablet and it has full support for the Thai Language

Hi Akabana, try this one megaupload.com/?d=Z60CA8FN for Acer_A500_0.000.00_1.016.01_COM_GEN1
now I restore back to 016.01 success
next I will update to my default fw Acer_A500_1.016.01_1.139.04_COM_GEN1
Finally I can't update my a500 from 016.01 to 139.04 :-(
Now, I found that original firmware in Thailand is Acer_A500_1.016.04_COM_GEN1 not Acer_A500_1.016.01_COM_GEN1

[Q] Problem updating Lenovo Yoga 2 10"

Hey there
Today I got a message that I could update my Yoga 2 Tablet via the System Updater, but it doesn't quite work.
First of all about the device:
Lenovo Yoga 2 Tablet 1050F
Running current version: YT-1050F_USR_S0000198_1504220313_WW21_ROW
New version I wanna update to: YT2-1050F_USR_S1000031_1506111400_WW52_ROW
The problem:
I can download the update and when I press the install button, the tablet reboots into recovery mode. The update process begins and reaches 100% pretty quickly. After some time, it says the update failed though.
What I tried so far:
Downloading and updating again, it didn't work.
Download and starting the update on my PC with Lenovo Smart Assistant, didn't work.
Change the country code with the easyimage.zip file and the ####6020# code. I changed it to de (which is my usual country code) and us, but both did not help with the software update.
So... I really do not have any knowledge about android and can't seem to find another clue what to do next. Maybe someone of you can help me with this issue.

I posted the same issue already within the root thread. My device is rooted and after the download it started to upgrade and after reaching 100% it says it failed. I even did a factory reset - but SuperSu stays present and no upgrade is possible. I do not want to flash it via flashify - as bricking might be possible with that methode.
Maybe anyone has an idea how to proceed!?
Thanks for the reply.
I forgot to mention, my tablet isn't rooted and I tried a factory reset aswell, but nothing worked.
/E: So if anyone has the same problem: The solution is to flash the tablet to stack rom with PhoneFlashTool and update it afterwards. No problems since.
I flashed to stock rom downloaded from Russian Site with Phoneflashtool and tried to update. Update went to 100% then "failed". Any ideas anyone?

You missed presumably one important step after flashing the original rom, changing the country code prior OTA - which was posted already in another thread:
If system update fails do the following:
1. Flash stock firmware
2. Optionally you can wipe user data (I never did that) from DROIDBOOT
3. Go to contacts manager. Create some dummy contact if list is empty.
4. Go to Search / Find Contacts and enter ####6020#. It will ask you to select country code (first two latin letters, ignore Chinese).
5. Select what you want, then reboot.
6. Go to System Update
7. Install OTA update
Thanks. Will give that a go.
/E After the above it now tells me that I already have the latest version at YT2-1050F_USR-S000198_1504220313_WW21_ROW and that there is no update. Surely they have not taken the update offline??!
/EE I used the Update.zip I had previously downloaded (when the update first failed).
Placed this on the SD card and installed it via the update tools.
Thank you for those who helped me
Is there any chance You can upload this update.zip file? Thanks

Exactly the same problem. The ####6020# not work. Before m'y tablette was rooted but now after flash with easyimage, the stock ROM is OK but no update. I'm verry disapointed. Can you help me?
Thanks
1050F. Update fails.
Hi people, new guy here. I got redirected by some friendly dude.
Anyway, I apparantly have the same problem. Device has never been rooted. Tried the update as is, tried after a factory reset, tried #### contact hocus pocus, did not try anything involving a PC since I don't have one with that still has Windows and I can't seem to figure out Wine dependencies on my Debian box.
So, yeah, I guess I'll call the 1 euro a minute Lenovo support desk now. :laugh:
Anyway, thanks for having me, I'm subscribed to the thread . If I find out something before you guys do I'll let you know, but by all means don't stay up for it.

I run Arch on all my machines. I was able to use my virtualbox windoze 8.1 (It came on my laptop but never booted it... ) vm to use the intelphonetool. I flashed this stock rom here and then took the ota lollipop update. If you want to root this works in Linux.
BTW... temporary Windows vm's can be found here

Stuck on bios after FAILED Lollipop to Kitkat downgrade?
Repair Lollipop to KitKat bios error
1) Get the firmware kitkat-YT2-1050F_S0198_150422_ROW.7z - https://www.androidfilehost.com/?fid=24052804347778640
2) Extract the firmware on PC
3) Download LtoKKxml.7z - https://www.androidfilehost.com/?fid=24052804347783496
4) Extract or copy the content of this zip to where you extracted the firmware, so that the flash_*.xml are located next to all the image files of the firmware
5) Edit the file flash-LtoKK_PVT_810.xml and remove the the "command" tags which contain "format data" and "erase data" (the XML tag from <command> to </command>)
6) Reboot your tablet into fastboot mode (hold power up, down and power buttons)and use PhoneFlashTool to flash this flash-LtoKK_PVT_810.xml
7) Wait for it to finish and when the tablet restarts make sure it goes back to fastboot. If not then power off and restart into fastboot
8) Flash the flash.xml which is located in the folder. This will flash all the KitKat firmware components. That's it.
Be careful if you do something wrong then a brick is very likely. Hope this helps

Some info, probably well known, but have a question about it.
Hi,
I found a folder 'lenovoota' om my tablet. It contains a file called YT2-1050F_USR_S000198_1504220313_WW21_ROW_TO_YT2-1050F_USR_S100067_1507101258_WW52_ROW.zip
and one called packages.xml.
Both can't be opened / are corrupt. 0 bytes each.
So, correct me if I'm wrong, the update fails at download already, right? Would it be of any use to get these two files somewhere and replace the corrupted ones, then trigger the updating process again? Or is that a bit optimistic?
Thanks.
I'm a bit reluctant about the instructions above btw. I know what's what, but, you know, *very* old machine running debian, not sure how VM would perform. Apart from that I am certainly going to be overly focussed on getting the details right and brick my tablet by forgetting a whole major step or something. THanks anyway, though, appreciate the effort.

Yes, it shows as 0 bytes when it fails.
I captured the OTA file from the 1050F. It is usable only on a non-rooted stock device and those devices should take the OTA successfully anyway... But it had the files I needed to repair the bios error from trying to downgrade from Lollipop to KitKat.
And I feel your pain with using a VM. My laptop is pretty new and I have my OEM copy of Windows on an external SSD so it works good enough.
I tried to port the Linux version of the Intel Phone Tool to Arch and it fails because of Ubuntu specific depens. You could certainly try it. If you get it installed and it see's your tablet you should be good. Let me know if it works.

Hi there
So, im here because i got problem with my Yoga 2 10" 1050L
Well, i was trying to update my Yoga to 5.0.1 but my tablet says that there is no update.
I was tryin to use Lenovo Smart Assistant - same, no update.
Then i do hard reset (power button + vol+), fresh install, and... kitkat do not recognize any new updates to lollipop.
Then i contact with Lenovo Poland, they was tryin to turn on update from servers for my device - nothing happens.
I got 2 devices, both from Poland, second one (i got two same Yogas, both 1050L) is running 5.0.1 without any problems (it update itself instantly after 1st boot).
So, what can i do now?! Is it any possibilities to get update *.zip file from anywhere, to do it manualy from settings menu in tablet?
Sorry for my bad english, its still not my main )

i'm gonna try now the scatt file from my firmware build that i downloaded here : http://www.android-hilfe.de/thema/o...-p9000-p9000-lite-uebersicht-download.785193/
did not work, but now i have the original recovery back on the device, and now i can do the wireless update to 20160715 so i now have latest version of my P9000 firmware... but now... still my main question how to root it that TWRP works
Help !!! i don't use the phone untill i can install xposed framework and Xprivacy on it

Flash magisk via TWRP.
Hi.
I think my problem is unusual.
I try to install TWRP and/or root my device.
I red a few instructions in german and english.
And still nothing.
Details.
1. I have the compilation: from 2016.08.10.
2. Updater says I have new soft. I can download it 100 times. It says "downloading", then "installing" and "rebooting" but in the end nothing changes: still the same rom, still I can download and install this new soft (from 2017.1.12, 927,13 MB).
3. I can open the recovery mode. This is impossible for this device. Power+UP, Power+DOWN = doesn't matter. I see something like bootloop, but after 10-20 seconds the system is rebooting normally. No recovery.
3A. I didn't find an extra settings in "Options" which give more possibilities during turning off (for example: "restart in recovery").
As You see I can't make the backup (nesessary for me) that is why I didn't try "factory reset".
4. Instructions from Internet didn't work:
a) "MT65xx USB VCOM DRIVERS" installs some drivers but I don't have "Ports (COM&LPT) for Windows 10,
b) "SP_Flash_Tool_v5.1640_Win": no scatter file, don't know how to make it, the file from Internet didn't help,
c) "SP_Flash_Tool_v5.1640_Win": I can't tick "recovery" and any other option,
d) "Mtk_Droid_Tool_v2.5.3": it doesn't show any informations about the device.
As You see I can nothing with my P9000.
Do You have any ideas?

Z17 Mini S ROM?

Is there a Z17 Mini S international/EN ROM version? I haven't found one on their site nor anywhere on the internet, can someone please help, do I use some other ROM (the one for z17S perhaps) or do I just have to flash, root and install gapps on the chinese rom as the only solution?
looking for a diferent rom too.....
Looking forward to it :crying:

Does this version include GApps or you need to flash them later?
I have CN V.216 and it works fine except that you don't know when downloads in Google Play will occur. It can take 2min or 2weeks

- Not works the direct update option from mobile settings
- Not complete translation to English or Spanish
- Other software bugs (i can't modify/remove the icons in the louncher, problems with sharing directly from ES EXPLORER apk, not possible to sync Google Keep apk, not possible to check the screen shot directly from the miniature...)

3. Google Keep problem
4. Translation
Please, I would like to receive a simple summary for updating my rom with the software necessary.

Install English version ! ( v 1.01 )
1- No problem with PlayStore
2- For me battery life is very good
3- Google Keep works normaly
4- Translation is not 100% in your language in any firmware !
Better launcher in this phone for me is a Nova Launcher , you can find a premium version in google.
Other bugs that you mentioned works.
The better way to install a stock rom ( v 1.01 ) is :
1- Put rom V 1.01 in storage and reboot to twp recovery.
2 - Install stock rom, wipe dalvin/cache, root and reboot.
3 - If in initial setup, you get freezed in wifi settings, come to twp recovery and wipe data, ( not format data ),wipe dalvin/cache, root again, and reboot.
4 - In you got freeze in initial setup settings when it ask you to put a name, after setup a date/time, you click next without put a name, and you must be good to finish setup and enjoy the phone.
5- If you can't open sms app after update, do this: the problem of sms app, you need to do a factory reset in accessibility settings, and root again, and after its all ok
Stock Firmware ( v 1.01 ) The file to download show v 1.0. , but is 1.01, not uploaded for me.

Thanks diogoasisti.
Your information is good but please understand that I am not an expert. I think a guide could be perfect.
On the other hand,when i press the updating option in the mobile settings it doesn't do anything. After pressing it, the screen is the same I don't enter in the updating configuration. Could it be becsuse i have changed the mobile lenguaje to Spanish?
Thanks
So let’s go.
To enter in recovery mode, go to settings, system update and at the right top side ,you will see 3 points, there you choose local update and you select the zip file of the stock firmware that you downloaded before, you need to put the file in memory phone
Put also the twrp zip file, to install a recovery to root the phone after
So, backup your data before this operations.
Do that and return to forum and show where you are

I have checked i can enterin the updating menu in the recovery system thanks.
Now i am going to do a backup of my data according to your comments.
Could you confirm with the v101 Google Play Store works correctly? Google keep syncs correctly? Can you change the WhatsApp background? An the most important thing: does the battery consumption is improved (1,day, 1,5day...)
Can i return to the same firmware status? Where can i download the originals firmware?
Thanks

Update above android 6.0.1

Hello, I think I have an issue with my phone. Now I'm not a big champ on electronics, I'm pretty sure there have been updates above android 6.01. How come I can't download them? When I go to the update MIU thing, its tells me I'm not connected to the internet (currently surely connected to a stable Wi-Fi connection) and that it can't find anything on my SD card. Is there a way of updating I don't know about? I hope you guys can help, and thanks in advance!

MIU? You sure you're not on a Xiaomi? :laugh:
Which is your phone model? The one on the back of the phone. It should say "A2017U", "A2017G" or "A2017".
You need to download the update zip (If you have an U or chinese you'll have a problem, since ZTE took the update pages down) and put it in the internal storage, then go to the update screen and update. If you have a G, just download them from Raystef66's Download Center. You need to download the Factory images, NOT the TWRP flashables.
If you have an U or chinese, you'll have to get the zip from somewhere else probably.

Okay so I see a lot of download links there but can't figure out which one I need, do you have any idea? I feel kinda stupid now haha
Hey. You need Marshmallow B10 (last 6.0 update before 7.0) afterwards the first version of 7.1 (Sorry I don't know exactly the version number) and last the 7.1.1 B10 (The very last update for 7.1.1 before Oreo). I have them all for the A2017G that i downloaded from the German ZTE website before it got shut down. I can upload them for you, all you have to do is put them on an sd card, go to the default phone updater and the updates will show there. From there on just press update(install) on each one at a time and after the last one you're done. No need for sketchy flashing through recovery. It's all done through the phone updater. I'll comment later once I have the files uploaded.
Can you tell us which stock ROM version it's currently running?
Settings/About Phone
Build number, right at the bottom.

I'll make it simpler.
First of all check the version number on Settings - About. If it is "A2017GV1.0.0B10" or maybe B11 then you're good to go, just go to the Download Center, find the "Factory Images" section (NOT THE TWRP FLASHABLE SECTION) and download the one called N-B10 (No need to download the other two zips, just the one that says B10). Then put that package on the internal storage directly, and go to Settings - Update, and update
If you are on any version below V1.0.0B10, you'll have to download the latest Marshmallow update first, and install it like i said earlier. Then download the Nougat zip and do the same
