Does this happen to work on the D257?

D260-A

Hi thanks for the uploaded files.

I have an E: but its is NTFS so I have changed it in win7 management console to exFAT. There is no option for FAT32 on win7 (due to 4gb file limitation).

I cannot label it Downloads for Android so have labelled it Android (11 character limitation)

Am now downloading the main files.

Will update

Right guys, here we go. I've had reports this works on netbooks with android removed, so it may work on any h2o BIOS one.

Download this zip: http://db.tt/l9CUU9HV
Extract it and place the files in C:\Program Files\Acer\Android Manager (Make the folder if you need to)
Partition a drive using some partition manager as E: and call it "Downloads for Android"
Download and extract my files from post 2 into E:
Open the exe in the files
Set it up, with it booting into Android
Reboot

on my d260-a i have tried the above but no success
i have e: in exfat and cant call e: "Downloads for Android"
i have tried folder in e: with that name also
no success.
will try to format to fat32 using http://www.ridgecrop.demon.co.uk/index.htm?guiformat.htm

Great Job on the Rom, looking smooth and the fact market works is amazing.

Not easily, you need advanced adb commands and the old su binary, as well as a second computer on the network
