Warning: No one is responsible for what happens to your device while attempting to follow the below guide. Create backups before every section and know the risks before starting out.
Part I - How To Install The Latest Full ROM For The Model (PLK-L01)
Step 1: Download the latest full ROM for Honor 7 from the below link:
http://www.modaco.com/forums/topic/375942-roms-honor-7-stock-rom-images/
Step 2: Extract the (.zip) file and copy the "UPDATE.app" file to your (dload) folder in your external SD card.
Step 3: Make sure the current recovery that is installed is the default stock one and not a custom recovery like TWRP. If you have TWRP installed, make sure to flash the stock recovery before you attempt the update process.
Step 4: Turn off your phone, then press both the Volume Up + Volume Down + Power Key. Then release the power key as soon as you see the initial splash screen.
Step 5: The Huawei eRecovery will start and will update your device from the "UPDATE.app" file that you had placed in your (dload) folder automatically.
Part II - How To Root Huawei Honor 7
Stage 1 – Unlock The Bootloader
Part 1.1 – Getting The Unlock Password
Step 1: Login by clicking here.
Step 2: Click on “Unlock Bootloader”.
Step 3: Accept the unlocking agreement.
Step 4: Fill up the unlock password form as follows:
Product: Smartphone.
Model: (e.g. PLK-L01)
Product Serial Number: Settings -> Status -> Serial Number - > (e.g. H8WDU15814000010)
Product IMEI/MEID (IMEI 1): Settings -> Status -> IMEI1 -> (e.g. 867898020305536)
Product ID: Open the dial up and type: *#*#1357946#*#* -> (e.g. 88429554)
Verification Code: Type the Captcha.
Step 5: Press submit and obtain the unlocking password in red (e.g. 1078018121593242).
Step 6: Store the code obtained in step 5 somewhere safe.
Part 1.2 – Preparations
Step 6: Download and install the latest version of the "15 Seconds ADB Installer”. You can find the download link at >
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=48915118#post48915118
Step 7: Download and install the latest version of “HiSuite – Android Smart Device Manager”.
You can find the download link at >
http://consumer.huawei.com/minisite/HiSuite_en/
Step 8: Enable the “Developer options” by going to:
Settings -> About Phone -> Build Number
Tap on the build number 10 times quickly. A message must appear alerting you that the developer mode has been enabled.
Go to the “Developer options” and enable “USB debugging”.
Part 1.3 – Booting into Fastboot Mode
Step 9: Power the phone off.
Step 10: Boot the phone into “fastboot mode” by pressing the below keys.
[Volume Down] + [Tap on Power Button]. You can release the power button as soon as you see the initial splash screen.
Note 1: You must enter the fastboot mode directly after pressing the above keys.
Note 2: In case (Step 10) did not work, then turn off your phone again then insert the USB cable and connect it with your computer. After that, press the same combination mentioned above for 10 seconds. Note 3: You can also boot into the fastboot mode using the following command >
Code:
adb reboot bootloader
Step 11: Connect your phone with your PC. Use a USB cable to connect your phone with your computer while your phone is in the fastboot mode.
Step 12: Open your “Command Prompt (cmd)” and type >
Code:
fastboot devices
Note: The second command must show that your device is in fastboot mode.
Part 1.4 – Perform The Unlock Command
Step 13: Perform the unlock command > fastboot oem unlock ***, where *** is the 16 characters unlock code.
Code:
fastboot oem unlock 1078018121593242
Note: You need of course to replace "1078018121593242" with your unique 16 characters unlock code.
Step 14: Wait for the phone to get unlocked. It will automatically restart if you have entered the correct code.
Step 15: Test if the phone is successfully unlocked by entering the following command >
Code:
fastboot oem get-bootinfo
Case 1: If you have got the message of “Bootloader Lock State: UNLOCKED”, then your phone has been successfully unlocked.
Case 2: If you have got the message of “Bootloader Lock State: LOCKED”, then your phone is still locked.
Note: if you want to re-lock the phone, please check this thread for more details on that. Thanks to @sminki for posting that up and highlighting this point.
Stage 2 – Install Custom Recovery
Step 16: Open your command prompt, and navigate to the right directory where your recovery image file is located. You can do that using this command:
Navigate to the right directory:
[“Directory Letter”]:
Examples: D:, C:, or E:
Navigate to the right folder:
cd [“Full Path Of Directory”]
Example: cd /Users/User1
Step 17: Test if your device is detected by typing the following command while you are in the bootloader mode:
Code:
fastboot devices
> If you got the right messages that your device is properly connected, then you can proceed to step 18.
Step 18: Type the following command to flash the recovery image (TWRP). The recovery image is in English and you can download it from this link. Make sure to download it and place it in the right directory before typing the below command line.
Code:
fastboot flash recovery recovery.img
After the completion of that, simply reboot your device using the following command >
Code:
fastboot reboot
Note: “recovery.img” is the name of the TWRP recovery image. You need to replace this name with the name of your recovery image (e.g. twrp-3.0.2-0-plank.img).
Stage 3 – Root The Device
Step 19: Download the latest SuperSU version from this link and place it on your hard disk then copy it to your phone. You can copy the file from your computer to your device using this command >
Code:
adb push SuperSU-vX.zip /sdcard/
Note 1: You must be in the right directory of the “SuperSU” file or else the above command will not work.
Note 2: You must replace "SuperSU-vX" with the right name of your SuperSU file (e.g. BETA-SuperSU-v2.71-20160331103524.zip)
Step 20: When the process of flashing the recovery is done, reboot your device into the recovery mode using the following command >
Code:
adb reboot recovery
Step 21: After finishing step 20 successfully, your phone would have been booted into the recovery mode. You will be able to see the TWRP home screen. From there, click on the “Install” option then navigate to your /sdcard/ directory where you have copied or pushed your "SuperSU-vX.zip" file.
Step 22: Find the "SuperSU-vX.zip" file and install it.
Step 23: Navigate back to the home page of TWRP then click on the “Reboot” button in order to boot into the system.
Step 24: Double check if your device has been rooted successfully by testing it using one of those root checker applications. There are many of them around the Google Play store.
Part III - Useful ADB Commands
Code:
adb devices
adb reboot
adb reboot bootloader
adb reboot recovery
adb push [source] [destination]
adb pull [source] [destination]
adb backup
adb shell
Part IV - Useful Fastboot Commands
Code:
fastboot devices
fastboot reboot
fastboot reboot-bootloader
fastboot boot recovery recovery.img
fastboot flash [Partition] [Image]
fastboot oem unlock [Unlock Code]
fastboot oem relock [Relock Code]
Note: Use your favorite search engine to search the above commands and learn more about them.
Part V - How To Fix Bootloops
Breaking out of bootloops depends on your device state and what kind of problem you are having. In this section, we are going to focus on the popular case where you can’t access neither the system nor the recovery partitions.
Step 1: Turn off the phone.
Step 2: Press the following buttons:
[Volume Down] + [Tap on Power Button]. You can release the power button as soon as you see the initial splash screen.
Step 3: Head to your computer and download and install the following tool:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2433454
Step 4: Download the latest complete update file (B121) or (B330b) depending on which system you had installed before the bootloop problem. You can download it from:
http://www.modaco.com/forums/topic/375942-roms-honor-7-stock-rom-images-updates-121115-b140/
Then, extract it and get its UPDATE.app file.
Step 5: Use the Huawei Update Extractor to extract the (BOOT.img), (SYSTEM.img), (RECOVERY.img), (CACHE.img), (CUST.img), and (USERDATA.img) from the UPDATE.app file that you have extracted from Step 4.
Step 6: Open your command prompt, and navigate to the right directory where you have extracted the image files. Use the “cd” and “..” commands to do so.
Step 7: Type the following commands and execute them one by one >
Code:
fastboot flash boot BOOT.img
fastboot flash system SYSTEM.img
fastboot flash recovery RECOVERY.img
fastboot flash cache CACHE.img
fastboot flash cust CUST.img
Step 8: You can also erase the user data if you like by typing and executing the following >
Code:
fastboot flash userdata USERDATA.img
Step 9: Reboot your device using the following command >
Code:
fastboot reboot
Step 10: You must be able to boot successfully into the system.
Step 11: After booting successfully, apply again the steps mentioned in Part I.
Important Note 1: If the "fastboot flash" is reporting "FAILED <remote: command not allowed>", you need to unlock your device again even if the bootloader is stating that your device has already been unlocked.
Important Note 2: When breaking out of bootloops or frozen splash screens, you need always to flash the right partitions that match up with the previous partitions that you had installed on your system before the occurrence of the bootloop.
Part VI - How To Change The Boot Animation
Step 1: Root Your Device.
Step 2: Create a full Nandroid backup.
Step 3: Create your own animation or download one online. Note that you need the resolution to be (1080 x 1920 pixels). It should not last more than 10-12 seconds at most.
Step 5: Your animation files must be compressed and renamed as: “bootanimation.zip”.
Step 6: Change the permissions of your .zip file to (rw-r-r).
Step 7' - (In case you are running Android 5.x): Navigate to /Cust/Preinstalled/Public/Media and backup the original “bootanimation.zip” file somewhere safe on your hard drive or sdcard.
Step 7'' - (In case you are running Android 6.x): Navigate to /system/etc/media and backup the original “bootanimation.zip” file somewhere safe on your hard drive or sdcard.
Step 8' - (In case you are running Android 5.x): Copy your newly created bootanimation.zip file to the directory /Cust/Preinstalled/Public/Media and replace the original file.
Step 8'' - (In case you are running Android 6.x): Copy your newly created bootanimation.zip file to the directory /system/etc/media and replace the original file.
Step 9: Reboot and check up your new boot animation.

Part VII - How To Change The Splash Screen
Requirements:
Your device must be rooted. Follow the steps in Part II in case you have not rooted your device yet.
You must have downloaded and installed the latest version of the "15 Seconds ADB Installer”.
You can find the download link at: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=48915118#post48915118
You need to make a complete backup or a nandroid backup before starting up. You can create a nandroid backup using the custom recovery of TWRP.
Steps:
Turn on your device and connect it to your computer then open the command prompt or your terminal as an administrator.
Make sure your computer can read the data on your phone and all the drivers are installed properly.
Make sure the following command is returning the name of your device:
Code:
adb devices
Save your "oeminfo" to your SDCard:
Code:
adb shell su -c "dd if=/dev/block/platform/hi_mci.0/by-name/oeminfo of=/sdcard/oeminfo"
Download this zip file and extract it to your desktop or any location of your choice.
From your opened command prompt, navigate to the extracted zip folder that you have downloaded in Step 5. Use the "cd" command to do that.
Create your new splash screen logo as follows:
Step 1: Open your Adobe Photoshop and create a new file that has the following parameters
Width: 1080 pixels
Height: 1920 pixels
Resolution: 72 pixels/inch
Color Mode: RGB Color, 8-bit
Step 2: After creating your new image, save it as follows:
Extension: *.bmp
From the "Advanced Options", select R5 G6 B5 from the 16-bit depth options.
Save your newly created image in Step 7, in the same folder that you have extracted in Step 5.
From your command prompt, type the following command:
Code:
OEM_logo.exe oeminfo your_logo.bmp
Replace "your_logo.bmp" with the name of your logo.
The above command will create a new oeminfo for you that has your new logo. It will also replace the old one in the same folder.
Copy your newly created oeminfo to your sdcard by typing the following command:
Code:
adb push oeminfo /sdcard/oeminfo
Copy your oeminfo from your sdcard to the right partition on your device:
Code:
adb shell su -c "dd bs=32768 if=/sdcard/oeminfo of=/dev/block/platform/hi_mci.0/by-name/oeminfo"
Reboot your device and check the new splash screen.

Awesome and very helpful guide @kenshiwara
Thank you for this guide.
If I understand, we can update if twrp is installed?

No offence but this is just @piskr 's thread re-typed with some serious errors added to it.
Did you try "fastboot oem relock"? I started a thread on that, it doesn't work.
Did you try any of the "fastboot erase" commands? As when I tried it wouldn't - "Command not allowed"
The Huawei extract tool doesn't get the names of the images on the current full ROMS (tested on B121 and a few of the Chinese ROMS) it doesn't have the mappings for these. However it has worked with incremental patches..
Extracting the files and only flashing a few like system will leave you with and inconsistent device (if from different versions). Those 20+ files have a reason - modem, sensorhub, trustfirmware, teeos (whatever that is!), etc.. There are actually something like 40 block devices on the H7 (/dev/block/platform/hi_mci.0/by-name/). To run an official update on that system would almost certainly result in failure. (I have tried)
..and flashing a whole system doesn't fix a boot-loop. That's flashing the whole system, it goes away because whatever was causing it has been deleted/wiped. If that's the idea, better off flashing Huawei's recovery and doing a full UPDATE.APP of B100 / B121 and moving up.
Oh and just one more minor thing - holding the power button isn't required, turn the phone on and hold either down (with usb data connected) for boot-loader, or up for recovery
Sorry... I know you mean well, however posting things in good faith is dangerous. Especially in a guide aimed at beginners.

Thank you for your comments and notes. It is great to see your contribution up there.
This was actually my personal guide that i wrote to help myself around while operating on this device (PLK-L01). Based on your comments, there are several sections that require fixing. Would you mind taking the time to re-write those sections in a step-by-step fashion in order to update the guide?
You disagree with the section of "How to fix the bootloop when you can't access neither the system nor the recovery partitions". My solution - which worked for me - was to erase and flash the main partitions. Still though, if you have a better method, please share it with the whole community in a step-by-step fashion. Everyone will be grateful.
We mainly need the following:
1. How to re-lock the phone if the command of "fastboot oem relock" is not working on some models?
2. How to break out of bootloops if we can't access the system or the recovery partitions? (and flashing the main partitions from fastboot is not a stable solution in your opinion).
If you can provide a detailed step-by-step guides addressing the above two points, i would surely be more than happy to update them in the guide. Please note that the above guide is mostly tested on PLK-L01. Please, always mention your model number when writing your notes.
Thanks again for sharing your results with the community and hope you can send us a better version on the above sections based on your findings.

TWRP is not required at all if you are just updating. You should root your device after applying all the updates rather than before.
Thank you for comment!

LOL, yeah, some people or developers would have taken it as angry rant but we all are here to learn and help each other.
OK, well I also have an EU PLK-L01 with unlocked bootloader. I re-tested the following today to confirm my initial findings:
fastboot oem get-bootinfo
Code:
...

Hi there beautiful people.
I'm getting some error updating after installing tw recovery.
Code:

Now backupping, i'm going to try to flash the zip (i'ts a stupid thing?).
Edit: Did not work either. Cannot update using twrp; the update app reboots directly in the custom recovery.
Currently on B121, it already had it. PLK-L01 europe.
Also, do you really think Haweii will public codes? I'm not so optimistic.

If that update.zip is from Huawei it won't work in TWRP.
You need Huawei recovery to install Huawei updates.

Indeed, it sounds pretty logic. So i should revert the stock recovery, update and then reinstall twrp.
Can I do it simply pushing trough adb? And where should I find the recovery.img?
Thanks for the help.

You have to extract them from the UPDATE.APP file!
I've done the work for you.. B121 recovery attached
Unizp, then
Code:
fastboot flash recovery B121_recovery.img
(like you did with twrp)
Then put TWRP back on.
I forgot to add - if the system partition is altered (su) then the official update may well fail..

Yes, it is but it work on android 6.0
Yeah, you extracted all the things from the LAF link I provided. Great job!

3.open terminal in folder where you placed aboot_patched.img and recovery.img (twrp)
4. Type sudo -s in terminal... Confirm.
5. Type the commands from first page or the tutorial .. I recommend to make a screenshot ...
6. When entering commands you only will see a "feedback" that your phone is correct connected... You see... Only a cryptic message that a file or partition is changed witg trim etc...
I type:

Do you have ubuntu / linux installed or do you using live system (try ubuntu)
Little guide to install ubuntu even on a extern hard disk, usb stick , etc.
1. Boot live usb stick or dvd/cd
2.choose try ubuntu
3. Open gparted (search or download it)
4. Choose your device where linux / ubuntu should be installed
5. I recommend to use a empty disk... Delete the main partition
6. Create follow partitions :
Extended ... Select the whole disk
/ ext4 minimum 10-15gb
Logical
Linux swap ...size: Ca. 20% more then installed ram
/home ext4 size you want ...

****bootloader installation device****
Choose your device not a partition ...
Example. Dev/sdxyz/your harddisk ... Not

12.select your device... There now are your prepared partitions ... Choose your / partition.. Click change ... Now choose as mount ... /
13. Install

In the live system there are some tools and packages not installed... Seems like there is an issue with pyusb ...
Check... Python status ... Type
ls /usr/bin | grep python .... There should be now pop up some lines1 with python version installed
Now type in terminal
apt-cache policy libusb-1.0
One of the now showed version has to be installed....
If both packages are installed correct... Make sure pyusb is installed ... (As i post above ... Ubuntu 15.04 has both installed
Install python :
Open terminal in pyusb folder...where setup.py is placed
Type
Sudo python setup.py install
Now pyusb should be installed correct....
These are the requirements to use this guide..
If you received more issues .. Just write... But after i do all steps above it worked...

Any Suggestions..?

Hi,
So many of us are not happy with the oreo rom of Honor 8 Pro (C675). Those who looking forward to downgrade from Oreo to nougat just follow the steps. (This method is tested and is working. I just finished downgrading and is working perfectly fine. I just want to share this method with you guys. Also this i my first post in the forum. Some steps have been copied from a previous post by xfact)
Things you might need :-
>>A computer
>>At least 8GB memory card.
>>An unlocked bootloader. (you can relock it later)
>>Download the necessary files here :- [The Dload file was previously shared in this forum by xfact, but the link is not working now. Fortunately, I downloaded the file while it was available and I am providing the link to the google drive backup.]
REMOVE THE *** IN BETWEEN THE URL'S
(a) Dload File --- https***://***drive.google.com/open?id=1ZpOoPZ3dEn86lEh0PwlZP0W2LShM-BnT
(b) Recovery File --- https***://***drive.google.com/file/d/1qiP4k5HtJ3VR5l9ac8FnpxrwryIxu-pV/view?usp=sharing
(c) ADB platform tools --- https***://***drive.google.com/open?id=1vu-awRNjH3B9os5MuHGSlu-ca6zNv10V
>>Unzip the above-mentioned Dload file, then go to the folder, then software>dload folder and unzip the 'SDupdate_Package.tar.gz' with 7-Zip. It will extract another archived file called 'SDupdate_Package.tar'. Now unzip that too with 7-Zip and you will get a folder called 'dload' again.
>>Now take an SD card with at least 8 Gb of space, format it to exFAT. Paste the last 'dload' folder and all its contents at the root directory of that SD card. Put it into your phone.
>>To unlock the bootloader, just log into---- https***://***bit.ly/2uEEvdj
This is their chinese website, use translator in chrome to read in english.
Fill up the necessary details and you will get an unlock code for your device.
>>Follow the necessary steps to unlock your bootloader from here :- https***://***bit.ly/2uEM1F8
>>After unlocking the bootloader, your phone will be factory reset. When the phone boots up again, go to settings and enable USB Debugging from devoloper options.
>>Unzip the platform tools zip file and copy the Recovery file into that folder.( you have to unzip the platform tools file while unlocking the bootloader. Just copy the recovery image to that folder)
>>Holding the SHIFT key, right click any empty spaces in the folder and from the menu that appears, select "Open command window here"
>>Connect your handset. Ensure USB debugging prompt appeared as seen in the bootloader unlocking tutorial.
>>In the command window type the following commands :-
1. adb devices
(this is to make sure your device is connected properly)
2.adb reboot bootloader
(to put your device into fastboot mode)
3.fastboot flash recovery_ramdisk DUK-RECOVERY_RAMDISK_NoCheck.img
(to flash the recovery image)
4. fastboot reboot
>>When the device boots up, go to the dialer, type *#*#2846579#*#*
->Click on Software Upgrade -> SDcard upgrade->confirm.
Your phone will recognise the memory card with dload file in it. It will flash the rom. It will get stuck at 99% and shows error. Dont worry, just select reboot system option that appears on the screen.
You will be on the Nougat Rom
To relock the bootloader--
>>Again you have to enable USB debugging from devoloper options>>open command window from the platform tools folder>> execute the commands 1 and 2.
Then type the following command :-
fastboot oem relock *unlock key*
(replace *unlock key* with your unlock key used for bootloader unlock)
YOUR DEVICE WILL BE ON NOUGAT ROM WITH LOCKED BOOTLOADER
As this is my first post, kindly ignore the errors. Sorry if this lengthy post made any confusion. Hope this is helpful to all of you.

can I get recovery image file please
Hey together,
I really hope someone out there is still using a A500 Tablet and may be able to help me fix a weird issue i encounter on every ROM i tried so far.
I installed the ROMs mentioned in this Thread: https://forum.xda-developers.com/iconia-a500/general/2018-a500-upgrade-threaddownloads-to-t3832293
And all of them come with the Same Problem for me.
If i try to open the Google PlayStore or something else that wants me to login into a Google Account it just says: "There was a problem communicating with Google Servers" "Try again later"
anyone knows of this issue ? All the fixes several Google searches gave me did not help to fix that issue for me on any of the ROMs.
help would be highly appreciated
kind regards
Finn
Hi,
have you read the tips? It says:
"- Google play will not work right if you do not format your data partition to f2fs. (You can do this in recovery)"
Have you tried it?

First my thanks to the forum key members for providing answers to queries and to all the key contributors of SW/ROMS in this forum. I followed the procedures from this forum to Flash / upgrade my Acer Iconia A500 on 4.0.3 ICS that was sitting in a trunk for the last few years. Summary of steps I tried out.
STEP 1: Install the Acer device drivers listed in the links in this forum on your Laptop/Computer even if by default your Windows 10 OS (assuming you are on Win10 like me) is able to recognize the A500 connected to the USB port.
USB_Acer_1.00.0524_A30HA31HA32H_A.ZIP
STEP 2: ROOTING the Acer A500.
1. The tablet should be already upgraded to stock ICS for A50x (or stock ICS A10x/A510 for other tablets).
2. On a tablet: "Settings" -> "Applications" -> "Development" -> "USB debugging" switch ON. If you do not see this menu, then click 7 times of the Android Build No. listed under settings and come back to the menu above to enable USB Debugging.
3. Connect the tablet to the computer (Before connection it is recommended to update the driver for a tablet from here: A10x, A50x, A510).
4. Since most of the discussions regarding flashing A500 were from 2011, the earlier Gingerbreak method for rooting did not work.
I downloaded the following file from this forum to root my tablet.
ICS_rooting_A10x_A5xx.zip
5. Open the directory with the unpacked archive. Execute file: for windows - runit-win.bat; for Linux - runit-linux.sh.
The root is received!
Note: The McAfee Antivirus software started tagging a file 'mempodroid' within this ZIP file Tools folder as a virus or malicious file. This rooting method uses the 'mempodroid' exploit which is detected as a VIRUS by McAfee and Qurantined. So restore from Qurantine and check list of files are still present in the folder. If not verify 8+8 files in folders again.
As per inputs in this forum, I restored the files quarantined and then suppressed McAfee SW for the duration of my upgrade activities on my laptop and was able to successfully extract all the files in the ZIP file to a local folder on the laptop. This ZIP file has adb and fastboot - two key programs useful for rooting your A500 apart from SU or superuser base file used in step 2. The file to run is the BAT file runit-win.bat if you are on windows. At the end of this step your tablet should be rooted. You may check by installing the RootCheck app from Google Playstore.
Step1a: Install a File Manager app from the Google playstore. This will help you extract the CPU ID and convert it with the SBK tool to get the SBK number/string. important steps SBK tool was available in file - SBCalc_v1.1.ZIP available in this forum.
STEP 2b: SUPERUSER and SUPERSU installation
1. Install SuperUser.apk first.. (IMP - Its available in this forum. Its like a base version for superSU to install over. If you do not install SuperUser.apk, then each time you try installing SuperSU, you would get an error message about a SU file being incompatible.)
2. Then install an older version of SuperSU downloaded from the website - filename -> eu.chainfire.supersu_v2.65-265.ZIP . Newer versions will not work. U got to install an older version as new version seems to be a paid SW.
3. Next Open SuperSU app on your tablet and let it update itself a couple of times each time opening and closing the app after the upgrade.
4. Remove SuperUser.apk file as now its no longer needed.
5. Now that you have ROOT access and SuperUSer access
6. Install Titanium Backup. File name in this forum- update-recovery-TWRP-rev2.0-beta4.ZIP . This will help you to flash/upgrade ROM software on your tablet.
Twrp 2.8:
http://www.mediafire.com/file/e7wpny5f39vw3pc/update-recovery-TWRP-rev2.0-beta4.zip/file
Compressed Archive (.ZIP)
File size: 4.91MB
Uploaded: 2018-08-14 21:40:26
https://www.mediafire.com/download/e7wpny5f39vw3pc
STEP 3: Install an Unlocked Bootloader i.e. unlocked bootloader Skrillax v9 - file name in this forum BabSector.rar or A500-Bootloader-Nvflash.ZIP
Once you have reached this step, you now have the basic tools needed for the final ROM upgrade of the tablet.
I did get error message after the reboots that happened after Unlocking the Bootloader. Someting about a LNX partition not being okay or some such msg. Each time I just WIPED the Cache and selected similar options to wipe System, Data, User, Dhelvic cache (spelling incorrect) etc. Since you have not installed the final OS or ROM for your tablet yet, no harm in deleting these partition data. Actually its recommended to wipe, format in f2f formats etc. all of which is possible using the TWRP Recovery software you installed in step 2. Choose Recovery menu option each time the tablet boots or gives errors.... using the volume rocket and power buttons. More info -> Go through this thread and install unlocked bootloader.

Step 5: Follow the instructions in "how to.txt"
Step 6: Download a rom and flash in twrp
This tutorial is based of
https://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2450119 thread so big thanks to KaijiKun .
Bootloader unlock files:
http://www.mediafire.com/file/o7m2ouwo6zuod4d/A500-Bootloader-Nvflash.zip/file
STEP 4. Downloaded file omni-4.4.4-20150210-a500-IconiaHD.ZIP as I was not sure version omni 5.1.1 was as stable as Omni4.4.4 reading all the threads in this forum.
First rename the downloaded OMNIROM file as update.zip .
OmniRom 4.4.4
http://www.mediafire.com/file/ghd72j3g618kk9g/OMNIROM-5.1.1-Tegraowners_ROM_v13t2.zip/file
File size: 244.66MB
Uploaded: 2015-04-05 17:40:14
STEP 5: Install another tool adb_fast.ZIP. This tool is also available in this forum.
Note:You need to copy the update.zip file to your computers folder where this tool adb_fast is installed. In mine it was C:\Program files (x86)\Minimal ADB and Fastboot folder. This adb_fast file creates an application shortcut on your computer desktop. Clicking on the short cut launches adb and fast boot programs I mentioned at the beginning.
STEP 6: Copy the file to the SD card (16GB) of your tablet.
Run the adb_fast tool from your desktop shortcut. This will open a Command Prompt type black screen window where you can enter the code as given below. Note you may need to see how your SD card is listed in a file manager in your computer
Code:
adb push update.zip /mnt/sdcard/update.zip --- NOTE: this creates mnt folder on internal storage and I had to then move the file using TWRP recovery tool installed in step 2, to the SD card.
adb push < ------- is the push command.
rom.zip < ------- is the name of the Rom zip file.
/sdcard < ------- is the location your pushing the Rom to.
E.) Reboot tablet with Power+Down Arrow i.e. This will start the Upgrade process for the tablet to OMNIROM 4.4.4
-- Power Button + UP VOLUME pressed... then release Power button after LED lights.
-- System will boot to commmand prompt
STEP 7: Install GAPPS using pico gapps short version and Wipe Data/Factory reset ----------------?>and wipe cache partition?
Reboot after 1st reboot
G.) https://opengapps.org/ to install a minimal version of Google Apps on the tablet.
File name -> pa_gapps-modular-mini-4.4.4-20150410-signed.ZIP
Root tablet again and install SuperSU if you need it
other info.
You can use TWRP to flash the OmniROM on the tablet or you can use the following in worst case senario to do the same.
Code:
fastboot devices
fastboot flash update.zip -- check if syntax is ok from threads in this forum
fastboot reboot-bootloader
copied below from other threads ---->
I find that a large amount of complaints in developer threads are due to people not properly wiping before a flash.
Of course there is times when a 'dirty' flash is fine, but if you're ever not sure, wipe as cleanly as possible.
fastboot allows for about the cleanest of wipes by the way. And each partition can be done separately too.
Code:
fastboot erase system
fastboot erase data
fastboot erase cache
can all be done individually, but to do these all in one command
Code:
fastboot erase system -w
If possible I recommend to do these steps before flashing a ROM, and now that you know you can do this all within fastboot mode i suggest to try it out, its quick and painless!
Don't forget to wipe your kernel too! (fastboot erase boot)
~Important~ If your device uses an emulated SD card (as in no removable micro SD but an SD partition on phone)
Then be careful wiping data/userdata as this will erase all contents of internal SD - you are forewarned!
ADB= Android Debugging Bridge (ADB)
[TOOL]Minimal ADB and Fastboot [2-9-18]
https://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2317790&page=12
First a short explanation:
Fastboot, like ADB, is a tool to communicate from PC to Android phone. There are times when it is a must to use, and times when it is just helpful.
ADB is used within your recovery or within your OS, but when you are in bootloader mode and need to communicate with your phone then you need fastboot.
And you may ask why would i ever need this?
Well many reasons. Main one is knowledge, learning the ins and outs of fastboot, like learning ADB, can get you out of many jams.
And if you want to unlock your bootloader this is done through fastboot. Granted HTC's unlock is... well crap, but for a Nexus this is how its done.
One other reason I have to stress is learning for safety reasons, This is about the safest way possible to flash firmware to your phone (ie Radio, Hboot, Recovery)
Lastly you may want to know the limitations,
There are many of course, this isnt JTAG, it will not resurrect a hard brick, but it often save peoples phones from 'soft bricks' and lots of time when know how and when to use it.
Think of fastboot as the program that takes over when ADB cant be used, it works with firmware more than software.

What Does Root Give Me?
1. Full control over your system
2. Ability to alter system files. You can replace many parts of the "Android Core" with this including:
o Themes
o Core apps (maps, calendar, clock etc)
o Recovery image
o Bootloader
o Toolbox (linux binary that lets you execute simple linux commands like "ls") can be replaced with Busybox (slightly better option)
o Boot images
o Add linux binaries
3. Run special apps that need more control over the system
o SuperUser (lets you approve or deny the use of root access to any program)
o Task Manager For Root (Lets you kill apps that you otherwise could not kill)
Tether apps (like the one found at [android-wifi-tether.googlecode.com])
4. Backup your system
o You can make a folder on your SDCARD and backup all of your .APK files to your SDCARD (helps if an author decides to "upgrade" you to a version that requires you to pay to use the version you just had)
5. Relocate your (browser/maps/market) cache to your /sdcard
6. Relocate your installed applications to your /sdcard
7. Reboot your phone from the terminal app easily (su <enter> reboot <enter>)
Turn the rotation lock off.
-------------------------------------------------------
SUMMARY - Regardless of version, rooting is the same... next
** Unlock the bootloader.
** Fastboot flash a Custom Recovery (TWRP).
** Download to the Tablet, Chainfire's SuperSU root updater .zip
** Boot into the previously fastboot flashed Custom Recovery, and flash the SuperSU updater .zip.
** Reboot - you're rooted.
-------------------------------------------------------
PS. I tried to maintain a log in Notepad during my upgrade. Unfortunately did not write detailed instructions and link to required files. Above is a summary of what worked for me.
Can not root
sukasis said:
First my thanks to the forum key members for providing answers to queries and to all the key contributors of SW/ROMS in this forum. I followed the procedures from this forum to Flash / upgrade my Acer Iconia A500 on 4.0.3 ICS that was sitting in a trunk for the last few years. Summary of steps I tried out.
STEP 1: Install the Acer device drivers listed in the links in this forum on your Laptop/Computer even if by default your Windows 10 OS (assuming you are on Win10 like me) is able to recognize the A500 connected to the USB port.
USB_Acer_1.00.0524_A30HA31HA32H_A.ZIP
STEP 2: ROOTING the Acer A500.
1. The tablet should be already upgraded to stock ICS for A50x (or stock ICS A10x/A510 for other tablets).
2. On a tablet: "Settings" -> "Applications" -> "Development" -> "USB debugging" switch ON. If you do not see this menu, then click 7 times of the Android Build No. listed under settings and come back to the menu above to enable USB Debugging.
3. Connect the tablet to the computer (Before connection it is recommended to update the driver for a tablet from here: A10x, A50x, A510).
4. Since most of the discussions regarding flashing A500 were from 2011, the earlier Gingerbreak method for rooting did not work.
I downloaded the following file from this forum to root my tablet.
ICS_rooting_A10x_A5xx.zip
5. Open the directory with the unpacked archive. Execute file: for windows - runit-win.bat; for Linux - runit-linux.sh.
The root is received!
Note: The McAfee Antivirus software started tagging a file 'mempodroid' within this ZIP file Tools folder as a virus or malicious file. This rooting method uses the 'mempodroid' exploit which is detected as a VIRUS by McAfee and Qurantined. So restore from Qurantine and check list of files are still present in the folder. If not verify 8+8 files in folders again.
As per inputs in this forum, I restored the files quarantined and then suppressed McAfee SW for the duration of my upgrade activities on my laptop and was able to successfully extract all the files in the ZIP file to a local folder on the laptop. This ZIP file has adb and fastboot - two key programs useful for rooting your A500 apart from SU or superuser base file used in step 2. The file to run is the BAT file runit-win.bat if you are on windows. At the end of this step your tablet should be rooted. You may check by installing the RootCheck app from Google Playstore.

Hi sukasis, i was unable to root the tablet. I download all and run the runit.win.bat (trying normal, as admin, and open a cmd as admin and then navigate to the bat to execute).
- It say device connected
- Then push 7 files correctly
- Executing of the main script. (it freeze here a lot of time)
Then error: protocol fault (no status)
The file "su" isn't created
Not getting root!
I try in USB 3.0 and 2.0 same error.
I have windows 10.
I uncheck the Debugging mode and it's bring another error, so i believe the connection is good because in debug mode can push files.
I don't know whate else i can do.
Hi,
I would like install at the Samsung SM-A515F the Lineage OS and the TWRP. I found only TWRP for the SM-A50. And the flashing dose not work for this phone.

https://www.droidthunder.com/install-twrp-recovery-on-galaxy-a51/
Need help or better information, if there exist an TWRP and lineage for this device.
Regards tiptel170

so does this method work for lineage os on A515F too?
After the long searching in the web, I found this:
A515F-TWRP
Link: https://firmware.gem-flash.com
After paying, you can download this TRWP. No idea, if this works. Maybe some one, will be use it.

My first steps to install the lineage os 17 on the SM-A515F
Lineage: https://sourceforge.net/projects/andyyan-gsi/
All commands in the linux terminal, the path please use your own paths you like it!
Unpack lineage****.xz:
unxz lineage*.xz
1) Extract the AP_file.tar.md5 from your firmware.zip file using 7zip
2) Extract the super.img.lz4 file from the AP_file.tar.md5 file using 7zip
3) Put super.img.lz4 file in LZ4 folder and run in CMD the command
lz4 -d super.img.lz4 superLZ4.img
4) Put superLZ4.img file in Simg2img folder and run in CMD the command
chmod 777 ~/bin/otatools/bin/simg2img
~/bin/otatools/bin/simg2img superLZ4.img superSIMG.img
In Linux OR Bash shell:
1) Put superSIMG.img in otatools/bin folder and extract it in Linux terminal using the command
chomd 777 ~/bin/otatools/bin/lpunpack
~/bin/otatools/bin/lpunpack --slot=0 superSIMG.img ~/1
2) Put, in the folder where you extracted superSIMG.img, the GSI file you downloaded and rename it to system.img. Now you should have odm.img, system.img, vendor.img and product.img files in the same folder.
You may also need to delete/remane the original system.img file before renaming the GSI file.
3) Now you’re going to make a brand new super.img file containing all 4 files of the previous step. This is a critical and tricky step. Run Linux terminal and type:
chomd 777 ~/bin/otatools/bin/lpmake
~/bin/otatools/bin/lpmake ~/bin/otatools/bin/lpmake --metadata-size 65536 --super-name super --metadata-slots 2 --device super:4294967296 --group main:4293513600 --partition system:readonly:1959841792:main --image system=./system.img --partition vendor:readonly:680239104:main --image vendor=./vendor.img --partition odm:readonly:4349952:main --image odm=./odm.img --sparse --output ./super.img
4) Make an tar file:
tar -H ustar -c super.img > lineageos17.1_SMA515F.tar
5) Goto Windows -> Odin -> AP, put the file lineageos17.1_SMA515F.tar in to the AP-slot -> Start
This is what I has done:
But, by the compiling, I got this error:
Code:
lpmake I 07-15 20:18:20 92568 92568 builder.cpp:1012] [liblp]Partition system will resize from 0 bytes to 1959841792 bytes

Invalid sparse file format at header magic

And the phone is into the boot-loop, it will not starting the system.
Any help please...
Update:
System requirements:
- Fedora 32 with current kernel
- VirtualBox 6.1 with USB support
- Windows 7
- ODIN 3.14
Enable Root:
I) On mobile phone
1. carry out firmware update
1.1 Set up device, WITHOUT Google Accounts, WITHOUT security settings, set up WLAN only
1.2 Settings -> Phone info -> Software information -> Build number (press 7x )
1.3 Settings -> developer option -> enable OEM unlocking and USB debugging
2. copy the files from the root directory to the external SD card
2.1 Install MagiskManager
2.2 Starting MagiskManager
2.3 Installing Magisk Select
II) In the Fedora area
3. unpack the boot.img from the AP***.tar, on the PC
3.1 lz4 -d boot.img.lz4 boot.img
3.2 Copy the boot.img to the SD card from the phone
4. patching the boot.img in MagikMager
4.1 Select the boot.img, wait until "Done" appears.
4.2 Then copy the magisk_patch.img to the workstation (Fedora)
5.1 Rename the original boot.img to boot_original.img
5.2 renaming magisk_patch.img to boot.img
5.3 Transfer the new boot.img to the PC for the ODIN or HEIMDALL
5.4 Convert the boot.img to boot.tar: tar -H ustar -c boot.img > boot.tar (here for ODIN)
III) Virtual environment Win7
6.1 Copy the boot.tar from the Fedora workstation to the Odin directory of Win7
6.2 Open the boot.tar in the AP slot, Auto Reboot must be off
6.3 Press Vol + & Vol - simultaneously and plug in the USB cable (On SM-A515F), then click on "Start" in the ODIN.
IV) On the Mobile Phone
7.1 If ready, restart with Vol - & Hold PWR for more than 7 sec
7.2 Putting the device into recovery mode (switch off, press vol up and pwr simultaneously, Samsunglog appears, release pwr again)
7.3 Wipe your data: Wiped data/factury reset
Note: Device makes a boot loop for the first time - is normal. The first start takes quite long, be patient!
7.4 Settings -> Phone info -> Software information -> Build number (press 7x )
7.5 Settings -> Developer option -> Enable OEM unlock, USB debugging and system auto update to OFF
7.6 Installing and starting MagiskManger
The device will restart once!
Check it: Whether root is present
Fedora workstation:
Call Terminal, enter adb shell followed by su
If everything went well, the MagiskManager should answer the phone and ask for authorization.
These steps works well with the firmware: SM-A515F R58N60BLPAZ
Where are the exactly steps for installing the TWRP?
I has installed the TWRP-10.0(A51).zip with the heimdall and the phone will not booting. And I'm not entering the TWRP. And finally I has reinstalled the revcovery.img (heimdall) from the APxxxx.zip file, and the phone starting normally.
All things with the AOSP10 etc, I has tried and the other steps for an alternative system will not work on this phone.
Thanks God, the root is now working. And I have to work with the ugly Samsung system.

No. Withe manipulation from the vbmeta.img, the system is unwilling to start. It gos in to the bootloader, with error-codes. Like in first thread I describe. Olny the SAMSUNG original system works with the kernel modification for the MagiskManager.
I saw black for the future, there will be exist an custom rom for this device.
I have no idea, what can I do for this device. But I use and spend a lot of time for modification, without an good result. Has anyone an idea what can I do? But it look likes, it has an great secure system intern for not using an customer rom. This is my intention.
