Hey guys maybe you heard this problem 100 thimes but its a kind of special because I have got CWM Recovery from thor2002ro.
I cant install any rom original or any other every time it stucks on acer logo....
I tried to format cache and Isearched in several theards but didnt found anyting.
First I tried to flash custom rom like in this video:
(HD) Root Your Acer Iconia A500/A501 from Honeycomb 3.2/3.2.1 Sry but i cant send links :/
I installt the 3.0.1 and i rooted my device sucessfully but after I installt the Little_Honey_3.2.2 my iconia stuck at the acer logo and didn't came out yet.
Please help i am lost without my tablet.
Honeycomb roms need to run on hc boot loader.
ICS Stock/OTA roms need ics stock bootloader
Custom ICS/JB xda roms require skrilax_cz unlocked bootloader v8 or v9.
You need to make sure you flash the correct recovery, rom and bootloader combination.
Read the root guide in my Sig for more info

Thank you for your help, I got the CPUID using Ubuntu, then installed Skrilaz's V8 Bootloader and flashed the Alexandra IV ROM.

i want to install flexreaper ROM on my acer a500. how do i do that?
i am on stock HC 3.2.1, not rooted or anything.
do i need to upgrade to ICS first to flash the ROM?
Thanks.
Read this thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=18503406 to root your tablet then install ROM of your choice.
I would suggest reading all instructions through at least twice.

Than you however thats to install unlock bootloader which I have.
I need to get it back to locked bootloader and reinstall the stock rom as well.
Or am I missing something
thanks
get this tool and it will allow you to restore our hc bootloader(probably0.3.01) https://hotfile.com/dl/158437685/178e3f6/Afterota_v1_07.zip.html
Would someone help me? I just installed CM10 Jelly bean for Iconia A500 and flashed the corresponding GApss right after. Now I'm stuck on Acer logo and can't go to recovery. Help.
Did you upgrade to the unlocked ICS bootloader first?
Try nvflash, go to the acer a500 development fourm, then search for the rollback from ics thread, read the instructions... you might be able to do it, i'm not too sure, do you have your sbk ? Or your cpuid ?

Can u boot into recovery?
Do u have your backup in CWM?
Restore backup and try again after confirming you have the right bootloader.
Also which gapps did you flash? July 26th or any older one?

1. Try asking in the correct JB discussion thread in General. Waydownsouth monitor's that thread so you're more likely to get help relating to his ROM, there.
2. You almost certainly haven't installed the unlocked ICS bootloader. This is a mandatory requirement for CM10. Instructions for this can be found in the dev section.
simple question. can i flash flexreaper rom with stock ics 4.0.3 recovery? or do i have to unlock bootloader and install custom recovery first? i have limited access to a pc and just got rooted this morning
You should be able to. Be sure to flash the honeycomb kernel parts immediately after flashing the ROM.

simple answer: no you cannot flash much of anything with the stock recovery.
If you want flexreaper then yes its best to flash the patched bootloader. Have the rom on yr sdcard ready to install once you've flashed the bootloader/custom recovery.
You can use the locked bootloader (3.01) with some of the flexreaper roms but be warned, its not the optimal solution. If you go this route you will need acer recovery installer to flash a custom recovery first.

If you really want the ring you'll need to update the BL
Do you have yr cpuid from HC or an old HC backup??
any reason you're not too keen to flash???
No I never had the Hc uid I updated to ota straight out of the box. I have my current uid tho. it's not that I'm against flashing I just have limited access to a PC and to install programs and go through the whole process with someone elses PC is basically unreasonable.

yeh fair enough. I ran stock OTA ics for a month or so and was reasonably happy with it...civato's stock ics rom was better though...and as far as his flex series of roms go they are the absolute best!!

I know it. I can see the features and the overwhelming recognition on YouTube and any Google search of a500 room. I'm just looking for the magical update.zip file that will cure all my shortcomings as far as the iconia goes. Thanks for the help friend.

Since I'm OCD and need everything up to date... What's the latest bootloader for our device? I'm out the Skilrex (spelling?) ICS bootloader currently.
You are correct and Version 8 is the most recent. There is a sticky for it in the developer section if you need.
Sent from my A500 using Tapatalk HD
I'll look for it.
Will I even notice any difference with a bootloader upgrade?
Yep, the ability to install JB... Dual boot I believe and the ability to flash bootloaders using CWM instead of your PC...
Ive noticed there are multiple boot loaders for the A500 verses the A100..I unlocked the bootloader and put on a cutom recovery CWM and havent messed with it since.. is that possible with this device or does each rom need a specific bootloader? Or will this V8 be the only time I mess with the bootloader?
I'm already on CM 10.1 and v8 of the bootloader so no update needed I guess.

All ICS and JB ROMs will work with V8. Honeycomb however will not. So to answer your question, yes after install V8 you shouldn't ever have to mess with it again.

Ok, I'm rooted.. now I want to put on a recovery next? and then the custom bootloader? Or is V8 the recovery as well?
V8 is the custom bootloader. If you go by the sticky in the developer section for installing V8 you will install a recovery as part of the process. You are given the option of which to install, they are TWRP, Thors or pubA50 recovery.
