Since there is still no device specific forum for the Acer Liquid E2,
i'd like to make this thread a place where every E2 owner can share their questions and tips regarding this awesome device :)

If there is a link or interesting website regarding the Acer Liquid E2 please PM so I can put it on the second post so no one has to search the entire thread for a answer :)

And please post as many times in the new device thread so they wil give us a device specific forum because this device really deserves its own forum :)

Since I'm using a custom ROM (Androlum 4.2.2) I don't have a problem with updates but maybe you could try to update your e2 using the application from Acer to re-update or repair your liquid e2 (it's on there official website under support>Acer liquid e2 >OS )
You won't lose any of your data or applications so just try that and maybe the problem will be gone
(The only thing you will lose is root)
Hope this helps :)

PS: make sure you download the compatible restore application (single or dual sim)

thats weird :)
normaly it should be on that page under OS :)
witch version do you have (single or dual sim) than i could direct you directly to the download page of the belgium site :)

EDIT:
It seems they removed that application from every acer site!?
I hope ypu have the single sim version because i've only the restore aplication for the single sim E2 so I could post a link to it in my dropbox :)

Hi everyone!

Has anyone found the possibility to set an mp3 from the sd card as ringtone or notification sound? I had to download a third party app to be able to do that...

Thanks for your help!

By the way I'm on the latest stock ROM.

    Maybe also nice to include: (Let me know if you preffer not to see this in here!, or Delete it ;) )
    !I know there's a way to swap Internal memory with your SD, but i'm not a big fan of that :)!

    http://forum.frandroid.com/topic/155072-tutoliquid-e2-etendre-sa-partition-data-a-15225go
    (I know it's in French)

    This will increase your acer 1GB internal storage to 1,5/2/2,5GB (Taken from your Phone memory)
    It works very well, but it needs a custom recovery for the nandroid backup you need.
    You need to Erase all data/cache on your Liquid E2 and you do need to set it up again as a new phone after executing it
    You need to register on the FrAndroid forums to be able to download the files (Sorry nothing i can do about it, i will not link cause i don't know if the allow it)
    I used it on an "Acer Liquid E2 (V370) Single Sim version, but it should work on the Dual Sim version to

    1. You need "ROOT" for this
    1. Be sure to have latest CWM recovery installed (I used CWM v6.0.3.5)
    (If you have anything lower, use "MobileUncleTool" to upgrade your CWM recovery with the one provided on the FrAndroid Forums)
    2. Reboot into CWM recovery
    3. Make a nandroid backup and reboot your phone
    4. Download the "AcerV370RE.apk" file from Fandroid forums and put it on your External SD or Download from here: https://mega.co.nz/#!wVp3QTIL!cAVGgnLW2mNTMLyIz9MBCGnparYnQ1ZsDc5N64gbM3Q
    5. Install it BUT DON't execute it yet
    6. Turn off your phone and take out your External SD (Or unmount your External SD cart and take it out)
    7. Execute "Acer V370 Rom Edit" (The installed AcerV370RE.apk)

    Screenshot_2013_12_17_21_49_13.png


    8. Choose your option:
    - Partion Stock (1GB) -> Default size of 1GB
    - 1,5GB
    - 2,0GB
    - 2,5GB
    - Partion Stock (1GB) -> Default size of 1GB (I don't know why it is shown 2x)

    You have to figure out yourself what's best for you, after some testing i did go for the 2,0GB option and that turns out very well
    (When you don't want to do it go for "Sortir" (Exit))

    09. After you have decided what option to go with press "OK" to confirm it
    10. When it's done, choose "Reboot en Recovery" and confirm with "OK"
    11. Your phone will now reboot into CWM recovery
    12. Wipe cache partition
    13. Wipe data/factory reset
    13x. Go to advanced and Wipe dalvik cache (Not really needed but i did it to be sure)
    14. Reboot system now

    15. Now choose your language and setup your acer like a new phone, you don't need to set up a Google account, just skip it and skip the acer Registration stuff to. Once you are on the main home screen go to settings and storage to check your storage, if you did go for the 2,0GB option your screen shoul look like this:

    Screenshots are taken after i put back my Nandroid backup! I did set the language to English for it instead of Dutch/Flemish) ;)
    Don't mind the "Total Space 2.35GB" showing, whatever option you choose, it will always show this!

    Screenshot_2013_12_17_22_02_38.png


    16. Reboot into CWM recovery again and restore your nandroid backup
    17. If everything did go well, you should now have everything back as before and a working Acer Liquid E2 with 2GB internal storage instead of 1GB

    Hope you understood my quick English explanation
