Try flashing Philz Touch recovery, its the most stable recovery imo. Available for both the I9500 and I9505.Flash the .tar file with Odin in PDA.
I keep getting the message e signature verification failed. i have used auto root. i have enabled usb debugging. i have done everything in the steps of the rooting process and flashing process.
Slight progress
So I downloaded CWM recovery again and toggled off signature verification and I successfully managed to install my ROM. New porblem now, when I reboot the device it goes straight back to recovery mode every single time? Help please?
Hi - so I dont know if you guys think Im being stupid and/or lazy and havent found the right thread or if I am just asking a stupid question. If I am would someone kindly point me in the right direction and forgive my ignorance. If I am not being stupid can someone PLEASE help me with an answer. I have posted on several forums with this question and no one seems prepared to offer a solution. This is by no means a rant at forum members - I just hate being defeated by technology - and I have waited a week now for someone to offer me some much needed guidance.
HI im very new to rooting and decided i wanted to try it because i wanted to get something close to stock android on my phone since im not the biggest fan of lg's skin and i love stock android. I rooted got a custom recovery installed and everything was going fine. than i was having problems getting any rom to actually instal. I was looking it up online and saw a couple threads saying to update the version of my recovery. So i did that and now i cant get into recovery it just sits at a black screen. Once its there i can restart the phone and get back to the normal phone but i want to get recovery back so i can continue trying to get a new ROM. Please help :crying::crying::crying::crying::crying::crying:

Looking to do a stock install of 3.2 on A501
blackthund3r said:
LIST OF FILES
Please note that none of these files are rooted and/or tweaked! They are stock Android ROMs from Acer and designed for stock recovery!
Flashing them will remove custom recovery and/or custom bootloader! You will be fully stock! Update zips may not install if you have modified your device in any way. If unsure use a full package! You need an EUU package only if your device is bricked as it will be completely wiped clean in the process!
-----------------------------
I am looking for the 3G version the 3.2 stock ROM to do a fresh install on my A501
The link from Vache seems dead.. can anyone please help to provide that particular ROM?
Thanks a lot. Desperately need some help as I'm password locked out!

Best to just get stock ICS. Why are you password locked? Is the device stolen? I can easily help you get past it but I'm not sure whether I should.

Thanks blackthunder. It's our personal device, my wife set the password some time back and is sure she hasn't forgotten but for some reason it's not being accepted. We can't figure out why! I have the original receipt and box etc in case anyone's interested!
I tried the stock ICS Rom by naming it update.zip and rebooting into recovery, but that gets stuck at the Android guy logo immediately. Also tried 3.2 before that via a link from this page, and that seems to work until the progress bar hits about 80%. Then it just reboots back to the dreaded locked screen. From what I understand I can only do a reinstall of the same ROM version that's currently installed? We have a password lock on it, and not pattern. Would highly appreciate any help. . Really want this thing to start working again. It's practically new [emoji20]
Guys any idea? Really desperate here. Thanks in advance!!

Your beat bet is using an EUUs package to wipe the tablet and reset back to 3.0.1 then use Flash Tool to get CWM or TWRP + a decent ROM

To install EUUs, is it the same process; rebooting with power+volume and flashing via SD card? What version EUUs do you think I need, currently I have 3.2 installed. Is there a guide for above?... will be a lot of help. Many thanks

Actually, even easier.....use the APX Flash Tool to get yourself a CWM Image (you'll need your SBK....there's a fair few guides on obtaining this) then do a wipe data/factory reset within CWM.
From there it's fairly easy to side load the latest Acer ROM.
Thanks. I'll try it out over the weekend! Appreciate your help!
God morning! For the apx tool, I'm not sure if USB debugging option is selected, never ticked that myself consciously. Is it OK to go ahead?
Tried using the apx tool after downloading the Acer USB drivers and in short no luck.
Had to go the manual route for flashing since I don't have USB debugging enabled.
Tried two packages, one honeycomb bundle 6 and then also tried a later one for ICS.
It goes thru the motions enters APX mode with confirmation as well on the tab screen, without any hiccups right to the end. But then reboots to the old dastardly lock screen asking for password!
Any ideas? Already backed up using mobo app so am OK to wipe clean and start anew.

Options for upgrading an Acer A500: Acer_A500_4.010.15_COM_GEN1
OK, heres a totally noob question. I have an Acer A500 I bought used. It has been rooted apparently. Has the ClockWorkMod bootloader installed, v5.0.
My question is, what are my options to upgrade this tablet and is there a thread with instructions on which firmware files to use, how far can I go with upgrading the A500 (ICS?). Not really looking to trick it out and go the whole mod route, would be happy with stock firmware, just looking to make it a little more up to date and, above all _stable_! The main issue I have with it now is the wifi craps out every month or so and I have to do a refresh and wipe all info and start over.
I used to get prompted to install a system update, and every time, it would fail with the dead Android dude on his back....so sad. Now, it just tells me, "Network Coverage is poor, please move to a location with better coverage". I am sitting right beside my router...
Here are the relevant specs:
Model number: A500
Build number: Acer_A500_4.010.15_COM_GEN1
Kernel version: 2.6.36.3
If you need any other info in order to help, just let me know.
Thank you very much in advance for any advice!!
Hey everyone, let me first of all say, that I am a noob when it comes to android (I'm using iphone) but my father got a gionee e7 recently and didn't liked how it looked and stuff. To the point, I tried putting a custom ROM on it but everytime I try, CWM gives Section 7 error. I read that if u remove the asserts from the script file it fixes it, but there weren't any asserts lines in any of the files. I tried at least 4 different ROMs, even tried stock rom with QCOM tools but nothing works. Currently, the phone is stuck at the Elife logo and that's it. Before I could access CWM from there but now i can't even do that. Any help is appreciated, if you need any info, just post a reply.
Thanks a bunch, and once again ,sorry, a big noob on android here.
Edit: I forgot to mention, CWM was in chinese so i messed around with it a bit. i went to advanced then clicked recovery or something, the phone turned off and i haven't been able to get to CWM since.
Still no solution, anyone?
I can get to super user but unable to mount USB to load a rom.
The previous rom was corrupt and im unable to do anything rom wise
on normal load it is just stuck at google screen
any help appreciated
Is there a way to flash stock via Bootloader?
