Thanks

My cloudmobile is good to go i just want to know if i can revert later to stock ics firmware without roots and recoverys if i want to. Where can i find it?

[wimmme]

make a backup by booting into CWM as explained by vache here:

http://www.modaco.co...-6015-for-s500/

, so you have something to restore, but you won't :-)

[Fadox]

Thanks again wimme

JB and everything else installed, exception for dormancy app that give me error installation on cwm.

Seems that everything is OK(i should say great) but google maps/now and weather apps cant find my location for themselves.. Do you have this problem?

Edit: a reboot and its working fine now.

Perfect so far..

You're welcome. And if you want to thank me, use the 'Vote this post up' button, I am also new to the forum, how else can I build a reputation ;-)

Coming from the most tweakable Phone ever build (the Nokia N900), Android is still a bit new for me too.
Bought myseslf a secondhand ZTE Blade because i heard development was very good for it, and i wanted to test Android a bit (experience with iOS: iPad3)
PLeasantly surprised i must say.

Now it's about time to start developing a bit for android, if I can find the time ...

The dormancy app is an APK; first open zip then transfer to s500 and install.

I use smanager https://play.google....mFnZXJwcm8iXQ.. to run a script on boot to disable fast dormancy

So seems like theres the version for EMEA_FR and WW_GEN 1..

How it is for the ORGROD ( Orange RO ) version? Is someone working on it? We are more then 100 people with the Acer Cloudmobile on the forums , maybe more then 100 active on romanian forums but theres no custom room

[vidox]

hi, a question... can i proceed even if i have the emea_fr firmware? because i see that the leaked firmware is ww_gen1!

[paugustin]

You guys also have the chance to own dual-carrier models... The -3 models are not dual-carrier. Therefore the roms are different and Acer says that you must not switch roms between DC and non-DC models as this would brick your devices.

[Dum3]

What do you mean by dual-carrier models? I see no dual-sim ...

[paugustin]

Dual-carrier is not dual-sim. It is a technology that allows network speed up to 42Mbps where the standard cloudmobile will only go up to 21Mbps.

It is called dual carrier because it uses two carriers (lines) to double the speed.

[Dum3]

Thanks for explanation I wised i had the standard cloudmobile and jelly bean already

Does having a -1 CPU mean that flashing won't be possible at all ? Even when the official 4.1 update will be released ?
I have a EMEA_MBSD image (the Mobistar model, but when I bought it I wasn't aware about this limitation) and I fear that I won't be able to customize my CM in the future ...

[Mircerson]

There will be an update... Confirmed by Acer Romania at least

[Genchou]

Well, that's not exaclty what I meant, I'm interested to know if having a -1 CPU will prevent from customizing my phone like it is now with the leaked JB.
Moreover, I don't think that in Belgium Mobistar will release any update for the phone (for example my build dates back from september, seems quite old ...), so yeah I want to be able to install updates/custom ROMs on my own.

[Mircerson]

ORGROD is the newest build on the market right now ( Oficial )

Mobistar is the 2nd

EMEA_MSBD build.date=Wed Sep 12 11:20:26 CST 2012
WWGEN1 build.date=Tue Sep 11 18:58:41 CST 2012
EMEA_ORGROD build.date=Fri Sep 28 11:13:34 CST 2012
EMEA_FR build.date=Tue Sep 11 18:58:41 CST 2012

I tested the leak. Initial observation..
1. unlocking screen causes flicker
2. when using camera with flash, flash and shutter is not synchronized

[vache]

Orange Romania (EMEA_ORGROD) and Mobistar Belgium (EMEA_MBSD) seems to have -1 (operator version, locked ?) while other have -3 (EMEA_FR & WW_GEN1)(free sale).
