Can somebody please modify the update-script/zip to not change the recovery? I would but I don't know how.

I made this which might work for ya,

It's the update from the first post, but with the recovery taken out, and the 'checks' that it does before it patches

Thanks, I just flashed this on my Liquid A1 running FroyoMetal ROM v2..5 and no problems. It kept Malez recovery 0.6.1 intact. Maybe it's a little faster, or maybe it's just a placebo effect. Anyway it didn't hurt.

Must be a placebo effect.
If you look in detailed logs while applying the patch (here on LCR-F 2.0), you will se patch is not applied on files because they don't mach the required source files :

applying patch to /system/framework/ime.jar
source file is bad; trying copy
failed to stat "/cache/saved.file": No such file or directory
failed to read copy file

applying patch to /system/framework/input.jar
source file is bad; trying copy
failed to stat "/cache/saved.file": No such file or directory
failed to read copy file

applying patch to /system/framework/javax.obex.jar
source file is bad; trying copy
failed to stat "/cache/saved.file": No such file or directory
failed to read copy file


and so on....


On screen you see no error and eveything looks OK

even boot can not be patched if it is no exactly the original boot from 4.003.17.AAP.FET

If have compared md5 before and after applying the patch : they are definitly exactly the same

Moreover permissions on system/sbin are broken after applying the patch and you have to restore them manually.


Plese, any one who patched 4.003.14.AAP.FET, provide a nandroid, so i could adapt it for EMEA

I see, so that would mean that kouds patch doesn't patch the boot unless it's 4.003.17.AAP.FET

I'd be more than happy to get you the files you need, but I can't find the 4.003.17.AAP.FET rom

EDIT:
after looking through the log, i noticed the patch does successfully patch 3 files: libcameraservice.so, libmedia.so, libmedia_jni.so.  
so it's not completely useless for now!

How to install this patch? We must use melez recovery?

[jayziac]

yeah I just noticed now get 'permission denied' when trying 'su' in terminal window. How to fix this? just re-root it using the malez recovery?

[studjuice]

Studjuice, do you notice anything different?

Ie. Speed? Market?

[spacetwo]

I should like to patch my A1 with koouds patch. But the patchinstaller say „failed to verify whole-file-signature“,  the installation aborts.

I have experimental tested the installation with the original Acer patch file. The patch installation starts but where fails with another reason (/dev/… not found)


Installed is the 4.002.14.EMEA.GEN1_A22F_A_256_bin on my Liquid. Can anyone help me to fix the trouble reason?


Thanks Thomas

[Tunestal]

How do you apply the original patch released by Acer?

The only instructions I find are in chinese.

I understood the pictures from the instuctions that I should copy the files to root of SD-card.

I then tried to reboot, but nothing special happened it booted like normal and the version still said .14...

Any suggestions?

[HustlinDaily]

Get into recovery and flash the .zip.

Turn off the phone.

Hit Power+Volume Down+Camera. Phone should vibrate 2-4 times. Release. Then press Power+Camera and it should boot into recovery where the patch will be flashed.

Thanks for the quick reply. I'm using Malez, but the Flash is not succesful. "ro.build.fingerprintE: unknown command.
Then it says installation aborted. I have tried unmounting FS as it says but no help...

Anyone have a work around for this?
Do I apply Koudalas in the same way?

try removing the check for ro.build.fingerprint in the updater-script

I'm as u probably have noticed quite new into this. But where do I find the updater-script, the only files I find are just yibberisch when opening them in e.g. notepad.

Thanks a lot for the help!

[studjuice]

it's in META-INF\com\google\android
open the updater-script in a wordpad like program (i use notepad++ instead of notepad)
remove the

assert(file_getprop("/system/build.prop", "ro.build.fingerprint") == "acer/a1_fet/a1/salsa:2.2/MASTER/1290497606:user/release-keys" ||
	   file_getprop("/system/build.prop", "ro.build.fingerprint") == "acer/a1_fet/a1/salsa:2.2/MASTER/1294229983:user/release-keys");

possibly may need to remove

assert(getprop("ro.product.device") == "a1" ||
	   getprop("ro.build.product") == "a1");

if it still doesn't flash

[komienski]

so just to be clear, if you're running lcr2 is it worth flashing this update?

[francesco9482]

Not worth, it's useless as malez said
