You'll have to root the device.After you do so,please post your vold.fstab in the etc folder which can be found in the root of your system

Read thread(1st) and see how to flash cwm on your device. Then flash file downloaded from (2nd) using cwm

Hi guys,

Any idea how to get ACE 3 LTE (s7275r) rooted?

I have tried the rooting method for s7270/s7272, but not successful.

Hopefully got a brilliant dev able to come out a working root method.

Thanks in advance.

Why are you posting questions about Ace 3 in Ace 2 thread? And cut out that drama queen style please.

Guys, I just find out that the Kingoapp android root program is rooting perfectly on our s7275r. Now can install seeder on it. ^^

Ps: I'm on S7275RXXUAMJ2 by the way.

I have the LTE version. And I managed to gain root :laugh: -> link

Can somebody with the Ace III LTE please post what files are found inside the /system/vendor/firmware/ directory ?

You can either show a screenshot or just copy / paste / write the names of the files in that folder here.

I need this info to establish what kind of wireless chipset in used in this phone before I can buy it.

Only some wireless chipsets support ANT+ functionality ( http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/ANT+ ) and Broadcom wireless chipsets almost always support it.

Many thanks in advance for your help !

Thanks for trying to help but that is not the wireless chipset firmware, it is actually for NFC. Looks like the WLAN firmware is elsewhere.

Is there a directory named wifi inside there ?

/system/vendor/wifi or something inside /system/etc/firmware ?

A "dmesg" would be much more conclusive if you can.

If you are rooted you can either use terminal emulator or an app like SysLog or Lumberjack to get the "dmesg" / kernel log.

From terminal emulator you can do command "su -c dmesg > /sdcard/dmesg.log" and then it will be on your SD card.

See this thread for more information about getting the kernel log / "dmesg" : http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2185929

That would easily allow me to determine the chipset 100% accurately.

Just make sure you turn wifi on before you get the logs. Many thanks again if you can help. I really want to buy this phone but I need to know exactly the chipset otherwise it will be useless for my sports equipment.

Thanks, but it clearly is using Qualcomm "prima" wlan driver and not Broadcom so no ANT+ for me.

How I found out ( may be useful for others looking to see wireless chipset of other devices ) :

wlan driver calls following functions "csrNeighborRoamPrepareScanProfileFilter", "csrNeighborRoamProcessScanComplete" and "csrNeighborRoamHandleEmptyScanResult"

I see the source code for this here : https://android.googlesource.com/ke...ging/prima/CORE/SME/src/csr/csrNeighborRoam.c

Anyway, thanks again for trying to help !

    They dont have their own thread and what about the ace 2x users? We didn't say they can't ask in our forums. Plus you didn't even say anything about the ace 2 x users
