Default [RECOVERY] CWM 5.5.0.4 For Acer A100

DISCLAIMER

Thank you to all the DEV'S who have made this possible.

I am in no way responsible for any damage done to your tablet. Follow the instructions!
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------

Here it is guys, Stock CWM Recovery for the ACER A100.

Before anything make sure you have the latest ICS leak C/O Vache, Root, and Unlocked Bootloader.

Official ICS Leak c/o Vache:

http://forum.xda-developers.com/show....php?t=1510706

Root Instructions here:

http://forum.xda-developers.com/show....php?t=1531646

Unlock your bootloader for fastboot, follow here:

http://forum.xda-developers.com/show....php?t=1557445

once you have done all of the above, you should be ready to flash this recovery. Make sure you have ADB up and working properly. And place the recovery.img in your working folder (see below)

1- Open a command prompt in your working folder (usually in your platform tools, mine is C:\android-sdk-windows\platform-tools) make sure you are administrator.

2- Connect Tablet to pc and get excited.

3- Type: adb devices (verify your Tab is connected and listed)

4- Type: adb reboot bootloader

5- Once bootloader is in fastboot type: fastboot flash recovery recovery.img
You will see writing recovery, flashing recovery, etc.

6- Once flashed Type: fastboot reboot

7- Profit

This recovery has been tested by myself, and is the first in a series of goodies coming please be patient, dont ask for ETA's as the DEV's are EXTREMELY hard at work and don't even have this device themselves. Big THANKS to all of them!


Now keep in mind most mistakes are made in the location of where you opened the command prompt, just be sure the recovery.img is in the folder you are working in with the command prompt. If it isn't, well, it wont flash anything.

Well couldn't test much, but everything seems honky dory

One question, should we expect the recovery to be touch enabled later on? .. yeah I know we have buttons, but the touch enabled recoveries are simply cooler anyways, thanks a bunch guys.

The backup is far larger than the ones of the first recovery provided.

could be backing up more data. I think the old Thor recovery had some partitions missing. I will look into it though. pretty sure the old one didn't backup /flexrom which I think the new one does..but I'm not using a flexrom ATM.

That must be why. The previous recovery made backup sizes of approx. 1.1Gb; This makes backups of well over 2Gb (Bar didn't even reach half way as yet when it hit the 2Gb mark ).

yes i forgot to add. if you are on flexreaper it will work..as you should already have root and unlocked bootloader to get there :D thanks for verifying though!

i don't want anyone to think they need to reflash the leak and root and unlock again to do this. as long as your on the ics bootloaders and unlocked then your good...no matter what rom you have loaded.
