New Official rom :2.100.07.EMEA.GEN1

[Guest jayziac]

Just an FYI, I have Liquid A1 & using Windows XP SP3 and all previous acer flash tools used to work except the one that came with this latest version. It kept saying it failed and I need to unplug, reset liquid battery and retry, but it keeps failing. So I downloaded just the .bin file and flashed with the older Acer Download Tool v3.1 (dated 10/2009) that doesn't do any version checking (so use carefuly). It did complain about failing MD5 check, but I did it anyway since the .bin filesize matched the same .bin that existed in the 'acer tools' dir when the installer was stuck in that stage. Anyway everything went smoothly. It's just too bad that Acer can't get a better working installer.

Can anyone make a overclock kernel for the original OS_Acer_2.100.07.EMEA.GEN1_A21E_A?

[Guest dennerjw]

Has anyone noticed a difference in sound quality/volume with this?

Just use previous kernels, custom kernels aren't related to a specific firmware.

[Guest HustlinDaily]

Are there any overclock kernels for stock ROMs?

[Guest sss_ddk]

Nope.The arabic one i believe was labled. Cus4 and was based on 1.6

Overclocked kernels are kernels built from sources, so isn't related in any way to stock rom.

Also the ramdisk image is equal to 09/39 one (checked), so you can use every overclocked boot image built for the previous firmwares (05/09/39).

I have used Boot 1.100.15 OC.rar from here and use the 998 img.

But my WLAN doesnt work with this.

I dont use a custom rom.

Your kernel doesn't update dhd.ko, you need to push dhd.ko in the right path, follow the instructions that should be in the thread where you have found the image :huh:

If I put an overclock kernel with a too high frequency, is-it still possible to start the phone in recovery mode so I can restore it for example (I.E. the overclock is applied only when you start the phone in normal mode) ?

Yes, you should be able to start it directly in fastboot mode for flashing a 'safe' image.

But anyway, first to flash a 'potentially unsafe' boot image, you should test it without flashing:

adb reboot bootloader

fastboot -i 0x0502 boot boot.img

after a reset you will go back to the flashed image.

Thanks I will do some testing this afternoon may be

[Guest Piti8576]

Thanks to all.

I use this kernel (920) and works perfect.

Is it me or this firmware the battery seems to drain even faster than previous ones? (namely 1.100.39)

Ujnplugged this morning, 1mn incoming call, always on 3g coverage, no fiddling, and now it's already at 90%....

I did try some boot.img using this method and it seems that it is working. But after few minutes, the sound is not working anymore. Everything else seems working normally .... :huh:

Does anybody have the same issue ? I used the img files from this rar Boot_110015_OC.rar. I also try the one from pph but when I try to boot with them I have the following message : invalid boot image !

I just updated from 1.100.39 and flashed malez recovery...

Now, can I restore a Nandroid backup to have my apps and data back or is it somewhat risky/wrong/imposible?

No, it will overwrite all but the baseband, so you'll lose almost every new firmware change.

You should use Titanium Backup for backup/restore user apps.

I did, so yes, you can. But the only thing that will be updated on your phone afterwards will be the radio firmware. You won't enjoy any other improvements Acer made to their libraries or other apps.

Try to flash it, the repack script sometimes doesn't produce a directly bootable image (it's related to the deploy value passed to it), but once flashed it will work.

I flashed the 920 oc pph ... and at the time being it seems ok (sounds still ok) ...

I was wondering : does someone knows what are the "normal" battery temperature for the phone and what are the maximum temperature before that the battery cannot be charged ?

[Guest endamaco]

Is it true that using the superboot provided by vache wifi doesn't work?

ok might sound a little stupid, but did anyone in the AAP (asia, asia-pacific) region flash this successfully??

I had the CSL one, it shouldn't be a prob flashing this one over AAP, I guess

[Guest vikings123]

Yes, it works OK , except battery life.
