Hi!

I tried to update with the officel one, but that didnt work. The phone was in fastboot mode so i tried to flash in 1.100.05 with Acer download tool but an error occurred and the phone dosent respond to any pressed buttons.

What should i do? Send it to Acer?

I had a problem too when upgrading to the new release.

I remove the batery for about 10sec and (with the phone turned off) flashed the phone again.

This time (after some minutes) all work ok.

Is it possible that you are out of battery? Does the little battery light flash when you plug it into a wall charger?

Have you tried this?

Remove and replace battery

Plug in USB cable

< & Camera, then Power

Use the hardware button combo to go to recovery, and reflash your rom..

if that doesn't work, probably the recovery partition is corrupted.

Boot into fastboot and flash the recovery partition, probably malez and then your pc will detect your phone, reflash your phone.

Excuse me for referring to a Swedish forum, but I had exactly the same problem. I simply took the battery out and let it rest for 15 minutes. After the phone worked again with the old ROM.

I had the same problem and fixed it after several days of trying. I ended up having the Acer Tool program running and waiting for a connection (it could not find the phone), then opening a CMD Prompt window using adb to write to the phone as if writing the recovery img. As soon as the adb write began, the Acer Tool saw the phone connection and I flashed the new bin. It did depend on timing between the two apps, but it did ultimately recover my Liquid from being bricked.

How do u "write to the phone as if writing the recovery img"? Is it Adb reboot recovery?

I think he means this-

http://code.google.com/p/acer-liquid-malez...ki/howToInstall

Boot phone in normal mode

On your computer

copy recovery image to your androidsdk/tools/ folder

go in cmd (if you are under windows) or terminal (under linux)

cd androidsdk/tools/

adb reboot bootloader

fastboot -i 0x0502 flash recovery malezRecovery_XX.img

sending 'recovery' (4876 KB)... OKAY writing 'recovery'... OKAY

fastboot -i 0x0502 reboot

Correct, the Acer Tool will see an active connection while in the OKAY writing 'recovery' ... step
