[Rom] The Official Rogers and Fido Roms (any phone)

[Guest alan090]

So yea with the recent release of the rogers and fido roms - alot of people are having trouble flashing it

so i ripped the internal update.zip out - added bb and root from a recent leak release and cleaned out the rogers apps and added a couple for utility - took about 30 minutes to test the first version and then spent the last 30-60 mins ripping out the crap for the light version

removed the simlock for those who are wondering - cannot test though as I am on rogers myself

Here is the light version : http://www.megaupload.com/?d=KYUYZ3T1

Stock rooted with all the crap will be up soon

stock fido : http://www.megaupload.com/?d=N9EL9KUI

stock Rogers : http://www.megaupload.com/?d=RDDAWSIY

just flash any one of them as a regular update from malez recovery with the latest froyo bin for the radio/baseband

Very nice work.

Any chance you could give me some pointers on how to remove the simlock?

[Guest vink99]

Got everything working now. Thanks for all the info!

[Guest alan090]

Very nice work.

yea just find acerril.conf in /etc and change it to 0 from 1 ;0

[Guest TheShak]

Hi Alan,

Do you know if this works for the Liqiud A1 or just Liquid E?

I've noticed that the French Acer site is getting ready to push the official 2.2 Froyo out for Liquid E ...

thanks

+1 :rolleyes:

+1 :rolleyes:

Atm, I believe it's LiquidE only. If you guys can get us a link to the zip file, I'm sure one of us will remove the restriction and someone (not me! >_<) will be able to remove the a1 device lock.

yea just find acerril.conf in /etc and change it to 0 from 1 ;0

I see, that was easy. Thanks!

Is this a wipe room?

Will it keep all the app and data on the phone?

I am new to this phone, and I have only flashed the leaked bin once and it works out great!

So can I flash this rom on my Hong Kong Liquid E as an update.zip?

No, it wipes.

It's basically like flashing a new bin. But not.

thank you for your efforts!

[Guest KingsizeX]

Flashed it over Roggin's CM6.1 and it works great!

- I like ADW being configured Galaxy S style

- Rom is very smooth (looks very polished)

- So far everything (hardware) is working

- Battery consumption is great

My phone is Acer Liquid A1 (256MB) and I'm on Vodafone-PT

What rom you flash? I have a liquid [256] too and i wanna flash the last leak >.<

[Guest komienski]

relative noob running the second latest froyo leak

so I...

1. rename this to update zip, place in root of sd

2. do a nandroid backup just in case

3. apply it through malez

correct? gotta make sure.

[Guest alan090]

no need to rename - just flash through malez with or without signed check - no restrictions - should work fine on any liquid

[Guest TheShak]

thanks Alan,

I guess ALL (Rogers, Fido &lite) should work? What one do you recommend?

[Guest opschinken]

the last baseband is ?

[Guest TheShak]

the last baseband is ?

It seems like this is same as the last leak 05.01.05

also the version number is almost the same the last leak

LEAK = 4.002.08

Rog/Fido = 4.001.08

Maybe its a country code or something... but seems last leak and this are almost the same...

p.s. I've not flashed this, just reading the other post about this

thanks

[Guest bais]

That doesn't mean anything in that case.

It's like saying 4.504.00 leak is newer than 4.002.08.

Actually I see no way to know if these official ROMs are newer than our leaks or not.

What I find surprising is the non presence of the Acer UI in those official ROMs, so I wonder, did Rogers (Fido) ask Acer to remove Acer UI, or will the EMEA official ROM also be stock android only?

Waiting for the thrilling (or not) conclusion :rolleyes: .

There is a build date in the build.prop, and we can easily check the kernel build date too.

build date was oct 5 in build.prop

[Guest bais]

Oh right, completely forgot the build.prop thingy.

5 October? Can someone with Stock 4.002.08 leak check his build.prop?

[Guest akira.pwr]

Can be 03 november?

OPS... Maybe it's the AOSP date?
