Thanks TimmyDean for the great work. Got it to work on the third try, after disabling and reenabling USB Debugging mode.
Thank you for documenting the problem and coming up with how to fix it.

Hi Timmy
I'm completely lost i'm unable to downgrade my A501 3.2.1
trying root 3.2.1-v3 and V4 procedure
I'm unable to have the S/N
I'm running W7 x64
Any help will be appreciated
thanks
If you cannot get the serial number then you are not communicating with the tablet or are not running the test command at the correct time in the sequence (many of the rooters do this simply mistake, they just click without reading what they're suppose to do).
You have to run the test, when it tells you too and not before and not after. For example, if you click next and then try to get your serial number it's too late. So, make sure you are reading the instructions and not proceeding to the next step until asked to do so.
If you are sure you're running the test to get your serial number when told to do so and are not getting it to work. Then the PC is not communicating with the tablet. Make sure you have turned on USB debugging, check your cable, make sure you have the tablet powered on.
Lastly, re-read the PDF and make sure you're not skipping a step.
PS> I only use Windows 7 64bit so that's not an issue.

Thx Timmy for your answer
For me the procedure is respected
I see tablet folders in file explorer in W7 so I think the communication is established.
The only thing was, the first time I run donotdetecter I hit, like a donkey, on next without waiting the S/N.
I use my HD2 USB cable, maybe that could cause incomplete communication.
Other question:
Why is it impossible to reset the tablet via reset hidden button, I try unsuccessfully to run the porcedure
Thx
Many thanks Timmy It rocks
But now.... how to install custom rom
I cannnot get this to work on 3.2.1 Acer turns off at the screen to enter the id number.
Question:
Once im able to root my HC 3.2.1 tab is there some type of "SBF"
(A term used for my phone as a fail safe to get things back to normal working condition) if a flash is corruopt/unreadable or some random thing goes wrong, or if i simply want to get back to my stock US ROM?
Hey TD, any alternative download sites? multiupload seems to be a casualty of the feds raid on megaupload.com...
edit: Trying Google Cache for alternatives
I killed my windows long ago, and I am curious if I could do flash from ubuntu.
adb is working fine, and I have no problems with command line.
PS
DotNetDetecter.exe do not start with wine
Do I get it right that this backdoor idea will not allow me to upgrade from rooted 3.1 to rooted 3.2 with OTA?
