I'm in north america. so i guess either the .031 and .033 should be fine? any differences between the two besides the number of languages available?

0.33 is more for the North and South America. But wifi channels are limited to 11. For Europe there is the 0.31 with more languages and wifi up to 12 and 13 channels.
If your language is supported you can try them all.

A doubt please answer:

Since there is no OTA update for PB Liberty Tab (3.0.1), If I install the stock rooted acer HC ROM from CWM on my PB, can I receive the acer OTA update to ICS which automaticaly gives me ICS bootloader, and I can avoide complicated bootloader change??


Thanks in advance

Just wanted to ask if anyone else is having problem with their WiFi, I haven't been able to connect as of yet,I swipe it to the ON position and about a second later it goes to the offer position and it won't let me 'SCAN' or 'ADD NETWORK'.

Probably a problem on my end but just can't seem to get this working.

I had that initial problem- I then went & re-read the thread, where I discovered that you need to install much like an android phone-

sys reset/format
format cache
clear davlic
install rom
fix permissions.

All works great on mine now.

No , you need to be on ICS bootloader for this.

You seem to know what your'e talking about in here. Can you tell me, definitely, how to get back to a stock Acer ROM that will put me back on the 'receive' OTA update path?

I've gone back to 3.0.1 unrooted, no updates, someone said flashing the rom in this thread will accomplish the same thing by getting me to a stock acer ICS room, but you imply that that guy won't get OTA's - is it because of his device or something inherent in this ROM?

I am trying to get to a place where I can sell the tablet and be able to honestly tell a buyer it's stock and supportable by Acer.

Thanks.

Just finished wiping everything and installing your stock rooted rom Acer_AV041_A500_1.033.00_PA_CUS1-FOOL-ROOT and I'm stuck at the ACER splash or boot screen. I was running the thor CMW and taboonay ICS rom previously. Is there something I'm missing? Is that Taboonay ROM running the HC bootloader?

The rom doesn't run a bootloader , that is your tablet , read the thread again m8.
If YOU are on HTC bootloader you need to flash the kernel for HC bootloader users.
And please don't complain about screen boot glitches , that is because you don't upgrade to ICS bootloader.
If you are running ICS bootloader and install the rom you don't need to do anything else.

At stock HC you can flash in recovery /any/ stock Acer ROM (ie any stock Acer ICS).

If you can't access the ICS update OTA install the Acer Update Enhancement APK (either from the Play Store or from the Acer Website drivers & downloads section for this tablet).

I think you might have misunderstood my question. I wasn't complaining about your ROM... merely stating my problem and asking if anyone had an idea as to what I may have done wrong. After some more reading it looks like I was still on an ICS ROM that was using the HC bootloader. I have since installed your FlexReaper ROM and I have the Tab up and running again. I now know that I will need to update to an ICS bootloader and should be able to install the stock ICS ROM again. Thank you to all that helped me figure it out.

OK , just a reminder these roms posted in this thread are not my roms but full stock Acer rom , just the root is not stock. And I removed the bootloader and recovery.

@civato (my fav dev for a500) :)

If I flash one of these (the.41 I think) then flash the correct bootloader will I be able to flash your latest over the top (and there by not have to run your "chicken s***t) I have tried to run it but it does not work for me as the pc does not see the tab in apx mode (All the tools do tho) will installing the bootloader with this rom permanly upgrade my bootloader so as I can enjoy your latest creation to its fullest. ???

    Acer official ICS roms

    Thanks to Vache providing the OTA files

    -Bootloader.blob & stock recovery removed. (your custom recovery and bootloader stay intact)
    -Full root patched kernel , thanks to ezterry for providing me the script to do it.
    -SuperUser installed in system
    -EsFileExplorer & Flashplayer in data (can be removed like any app from the market)
    -NOTHING ELSE IS CHANGED !!
    Not deodexed or zipaligned , really nothing else is changed!
    DEODEXED AND ZIPALIGNED VERSIONS BOTTOM OF THIS THREAD !
    So if you got problems with it you got problems with Acer.
    Installation note !
    Flash with CWM
    FOR ICS BOOTLOADER USERS ,

    If you want it to boot on your HC 3.01 make sure you flash the kernel for HC bootloaders after you flashed the rom and before you reboot.
    You find it with every rom.


    If you decide and stop beeing a chicken with your HC bootloader =how to get ICS bootloader and custom recovery.


    I don't intend to support the old HC bootloader , but i do so even the ones that are to afraid of flashing there bootloader get a chance to run full stock ICS
    If you want ICS it is best to use the ICS bootloader so you have no glitches , messed up bootscreens and SoD.

    Don't ask for request , this is for the people that want full stock with full root , no AcerRing or any other special app , this is as Acer put it out.

    Thanks to www.interphaze.com for upload service
    Please support the Acer Recovery Installer app by Euclid's Brother.

    This is a great idea civato! It's like the modded stock idea I had a while ago but had real problems getting to work ;P
    Personally I would have deodexed and zipaligned too but the nature of ROMs is that everyone thinks something different is better haha

    Great work!

    Deodexed and zip aligned versions will come, its 20 minutes work for every rom but wanted to start of with full stock.
    Remember speed wise the odexed roms got a little advandage over deodexed roms.
    But you need deodexed roms if you want to mod them and change stuff to them.

    Oh and I got full deodexed zipaligned , flexreaper :D

    Extreme will only work if you are on ICS unlocked bootloader.
    These roms here have no ICS bootloader in them , bootloader is totaly different then boot.img.
