Guest Borkata Posted March 6, 2010 Report Share Posted March 6, 2010 That is because you should flash 2.0.0.13.AAP.GEN1 over 1.0.0.5.AAP.CSL. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest fantong Posted March 6, 2010 Report Share Posted March 6, 2010 That is because you should flash 2.0.0.13.AAP.GEN1 over 1.0.0.5.AAP.CSL. There is old 2.0.0.16 leaked GEN1 bin ,is it same as the recent 2.0.0.16 GEN1 rom? Can I flash the bin with the old acer tool? I remember the old acer tool don't check the region restriction.

Guest rrunner1 Posted March 7, 2010 Report Share Posted March 7, 2010 (edited) A somewhat related question: Did anyone find a way to flash the new official roms (with bundled flash tool) with the old flasher? I tried the obvious and extracted the rom file from the .CAB and renamed it to .bin but that doesn't seem to work... We have most current roms in .bin format now but this might become more important in the future... Anyone had more succes?

Guest Quipeace Posted March 7, 2010 Report Share Posted March 7, 2010 No luck here either, trying to flash the same rom over 1.00800._EMEA... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest yappanappa Posted March 9, 2010 Report Share Posted March 9, 2010 (edited) I had the same problem trying to flash the 2.000.16 GEN1 starting from the original 1.002.03-EMEA-GEN1. What I did was to start the setup.exe and to try to complete the flashing process "without connecting" the Liquid to the PC. Of course the flashing is failed but in a directory on the PC a bin file ACER_A1_MergeFile.bin (around 120MB) has been created. So, what I did was to use that bin file and the "old" Acer tool to flash the new rom(bin format) on my Liquid.

The acer tool sometimes doesn't even start here and a reboot normally fixes that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
