[Q] Valid Update.zip? - Acer Iconia Tab A100

have a GEN2 A100 and never got any update till date..so planning to flash it to GEN1 3.2.1 so i can get ICS OTA. I never done this before and still bit new for Android platform.. Please help.
There are multiple threads.. different update.zip file for Gen1 3.2.1. being a windows user, i'm cautious of installing anything off the internet...
http://fileshost.fr.mu/download/84/S...l_user.7z.html
- Many seems to have used the above file, renamed it to update.zip and successfully flashed. But after downloading, i was i unable to open it with winzip.. it says invalid archive file..
http://www.mediafire.com/download.php?txhsq9k7zvwk9ud
- This is another update.zip some used for Gen1, .This one opens correctly in winzip and i can see android files..
Question: How do we validate the update.zip files used for flashing? Should I be able to open it with Winzip on my laptop?
Thanks!
UPDATE: Figured out .7z file is 7zip compressed file. I was able to extract update.zip from it and successfully flashed it to GEN1 and now to ICS! Finally!

to be closed.
Please see my update above. This thread can be closed now? I cant seem to find a way to close it.. hope the one of the mods would close it..

Did you try installing the ROM from the SD card?
EDIT: Also, you did extract the ROM from the compressed file first, right?
i downloaded the file unzipped it and tried to install it via active sync and get the error. when i try to do it the through the card it tells me there is no application associated with it run the application then open file.. i know that im just missing something but im at my witts end..thanks for responding
When you unzipped/unrar'd the ROM what files did you see? What are you clicking on?
rhodimg.nbh..click on this it unzips and says cant find file to open
rhodium software.... click on this it goes to rom update then says error code 240
Apart from the .nbh file, you need a CustomRUU.exe program to do the actual flashing. The .nbh file should not be extracted; it is the ROM image.
See this topic for a more detailed description.
even when i try to run the custom ruu still get error code 240..the only thing that i have done that didnt give me the code was the hrdspl and that worked just like the instructions said it would but everything else gives me the error.
ok got it figured out my buddy told me to download another zip tool and it works fine i guess that my winzip wasnt doing it right.. thanks for all the help i am grateful

black screen

i rooted my device but some games wont play like need for speed and asphalt 7 so i installd and its the last thing i did on my device (chainfire3d) then my device reboot and keep reboot wont open help please wait for answer
Sounds like this is a very similar problem to something someone else posted in the last few days. Take a look through the last couple of days posts in this forum and see if you can see it. The general suggestion if i remember right was to use ODIN to fix.

Read before you install, chain fire 3d does not work with jellybean 4.1.
I think the description in the play store also said enough
Amazes me why people dont read ?
It clrearly says not for jelly bean
You need to find your desired stock rom and flash it via odin. Only solution
Why do you install things which aren't supported?
It's the first thing people should do when installing unconfirmed stuff.
Chainfire 3D isn't supported for JB.
What you need to do now is go into DOWNLOAD mode, and flash your stock ROM via Odin, if you want official.
thanks all its my mistake am new , and i said sorry for my note lmao , well now i need to search for good custom room
i download nandroid and platinum backup and i backup my apps&system wz data got .gz files i think on my sd-card and got nandroid backup on my sd-card (nandroid back up like 4 files) one of them .md5 and its 1kb others .tar 500mb and 700mb cach and system and est i think didnt remember they are on my sd-card is that help me by odin ? because i cant open my device any way my only solution by odin mode but is there any file in my back up files can help ? forget i tried to restore my device by nandroid.md5 and odin closed not response , dont say iam lucky new in android world understand nothing for now
You don't need to flash custom ROM, bro. If you want official rom, just go to sammobile.com, find the firmware of your country and flash it through odin. There, you have official stock ROM again.
Also your English is extremely hard to understand. Try to use commas and full-stops.

[Q] Softbricked SPH L710, No boot, No recovery

Hey there
Backstory: Ive had my Sprint SGS3 for awhile and rooted it after I came across a root required application that promised faster youtube loading times called hola one day after using this app for awhile my SGS3 froze mid-video. I waited about 4 mins then pulled the battery out and my SGS3 hasn't been working since. That was about 5 months ago and I haven't used a phone since.
Current state: Now my SGS3 wont boot or go into to recovery mode so CWM or TWRP will not work in this case. The only thing my phone CAN do is go into download mode.
Now the catch to this story is I live in an all Mac hardware family, and setting up bootcamp is currently out of the question so my only other option currently is Heimdall. Now ive used Odin once to achieve root but other than that im not very familiar with either programs.
PLZ HALP: So now my question is if anyone can help me install a new rom step by step (point me in the right direction for the files and how to apply them via Heimdall) I was aiming to install Cyanogenmod 10.1 but quickly got confused, but I will settle with a stock 4.2 rooted rom.
I have limited knowledge of this and am at my wits end so I come here begging on my knees if anyone can help me

Well thank you for taking time to post those links but that's not covering the issue I'm having trouble with.
I've seen a few videos on how to use heimdall now but my issue remains the flashing. I downloaded a stock rom with root but I don't understand how to flash it. There is no .img file which heimdall requires.
Every other method I've seen requires custom recovery
Also sorry for the long response time. I've been having a very very bad week and its only getting worse

You could try http://www.rwilco12.com just make sure you download a tar or tar.gz file so you can extract the images from it. Only problem is that heimdall may be a no-go. I thought I heard something a while back about heimdall not working with the s3 after a certain firmware. You can save yourself so much headache and save a ton of time if you could just use Odin. You don't have any friends with a windows pc you could use?

Please help. Freezing crashing galaxy s4 rooted.

Good evening folks. I hope I'm posting in the correct place.
First id like to start off thanking everyone for whatever help I can get. I know I've come to the place where I can get some help.
I apologize in advance If I'm lacking any info in my post.
I REALLY NEED HELP.:crying::crying::crying:
I have a rooted metro pcs galaxy s4
I have recently started having a really slow phone. Slow is a understatement actually.
Everything freezes up and I cant do anything with it. I DO have root access.
Anything I try to do such as enter the phone settings, an app or simply try make a call just seems to take a ton of processing power and eventually glitches or freezes up and force closes themselves.
It reminds me of a computer that doesn't have enough memory in it.
I installed some app in the play store that required root access called adjbrightness and ever since then my phone has been crazy slow with apps and services crashing.
I cannot be certain this app had anythinto do with my problem though.
I cant even make a call Its soooo bad.. GGRRrrrrrrrrr......:crying::crying::crying:
I installed one click kango root about a month ago and definitely haven't had any problems until about a week or so ago.
Since then iv tried everything. I'm pretty good with android phones too. I'm always helping ppl fix slow phones or computers.
I fear I may have force stopped or disabled a critical system function or service by accident.
Iv done the following already...
-Factory reset first then uninstalled the root.
-Ever since I unrooted today, I am unsure if I can or should or even could do a factory reset now. Because if I try to do it upon reboot, a warning states that installing custom roms can be damaging to my phone. Um.... Yikes!
-I formatted and removed my SD card.
-Prior to unrooting I did do factory reset several times without results.
I'm really freaking out.
I know this was something that could happen upon rooting as a risk I was taking.
I feel this issue was somehow due to the root access ultimately and that something in the rom (or what not) is glitching badly or some code is just missing.
- I never installed custom rom or messed with the rom that I know of.
-I never messed with any kernels or clocking methods because that's all too scary for me.
-I really didn't mess with things I didn't understand.
I rooted mainly to save battery and ditch some factory bloatware. I'm sure yall can relate.
Oh and I didn't download anything from porn sites, don't worry. HAHA.
Pleeeeeeese, please PLEASE, help lead me on the right path and I will be your best friend for ever.... I just haven't a clue what the issue could be. :crying::crying::crying:
Thank you so much for any and all help in advance.
THX!!!!! K++
---------- Post added at 04:43 AM ---------- Previous post was at 04:36 AM ----------
I would suggest you download the latest metropcs firmware for your device and flash with Odin. Don't worry about the warning, it's supposed to say that. Hopefully you don't have any important info or media that you haven't backed up. If so, back it up before you flash. After the flash, boot straight into recovery and do a factory reset. After that you will start off fresh and your phone should be back to normal

Just saw this right now and if you still need help I might be able to help. I'm also on MetroPCS. That firmware you downloaded is a t-mobile one and I'm not sure what version it is but download the stock one from this thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/gal...tock-base-metropcs-4-4-4-fni3-galaxy-t2899701 then flash it in Odin . After flashing it set it up and all that stuff and do the software update. It'll update your modem to NK3 which is the latest. I'd say use it for about a week and see if it's good or you can just root it right away if you want. I used CF auto root for M919 to root my M919N (MetroPCS version of the S4). For recovery I use TWRP jfltmo. After that just make a backup and keep it on your computer or SD card just incase something happens again so you can flash the backup. If you want to flash a ROM I recommend Hispasian ROM (currently using) or Insane Hybrid. Both are really stable and fast ROMS.
Howdy folks, I want to start off saying that Thank you so much for helping me. XDA is a awesome place.
"lordodin" is helping me with this issue in another thread i created although I amgetting anxious to figure this out as i cannot make any calls on my phone and today's my day off work. I hope I am not being too rude by posting my question here too.
-Im following the instructions in the official T-Mobile SGS4 thread in order to run odin here.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/show....php?t=2258628
I have odin 3.9 (and 3.07) and know to select the tar file with PDA/AD button.
although i cannot find the tar file.,
I know the fix tp this lies n the step requiring me to extract the tar file from the 7zip/zip archive,
yet I see no file with that 7zip/zip name or extension to do so. Im honestly tried everything AAAARRRRRGGGGGGGGG!!!
I downloaded all files needed.... triangle away, odin zip, and the mdl zip.
I placed all rooting files on desktop to locate easier and I am always running odin in admin.
I see the issue was solved somewhere else by completing the step requiring to me to extract the tar file from the 7zip/zip archive this step is confusing the heck out of me.....
I even download the 7zip unpacking program from the web hoping it may recognize a TAR file I may have missed with no avail. . Is 7zip a file type?
When i unpack the odin file all i see is the following
-Odin3 v3.07 (or the 3.9 version respectively)(application)
-Odin3(configuration setting)
-tmax.dll(app extention)
-zlib.dll(app extention)
As i said "lordodin" is helping me in another thread with this very issue which is super appreciated. Thx lordodin!!!!

OTA 5.1.1 update .cfg

Hi guys! Due to my patience, I finally found this OTA update I downloaded from AT&T.
Now, does this file usable for odin?
here's the link for the .cfg file: https://mega.nz/#!FUpRGD5R!wUWv0oU8yJ-tR6_H0ixalh5NtZQQKuzrsNNuzH0hmq0
also, the reason why i wasn't able to screenshot it is because, my phone lagged xD
According to Tonys.94, my .cfg will be usable if you renamed it as update.zip and put it in your memory card.
It was SUCCESSFUL for me. I am now in 5.1.1 (I'm tired of waiting for ROOT haha! I need the Personal Hotspot so bad).
For those who are wondering how did I become successful in upgrading:
1. I was using KitKat 4.4.4 when I decided to borrow my friend's AT&T Simcard so that AT&T will push the update towards my phone (I am at T-mobile)
2. Afterwards, I rooted my phone so I would be able to gain root access for ES File Explorer and pullout the OTA update from /data/data/fota (i think).
3. I renamed the .cfg file to update.zip (thanks to tonys.94)
4. Make sure it's in the memory card and go to recovery mode and press apply update from sdcard.
Voala! I'm at Lollipop now! Take note that, if you are planning to use this file, all of your files will be deleted. I flashed my update.zip DURING my class lol. If you have further questions, I'll do the best thing I could do to help! I'm trying to get rid my note 4 soon and buy S6 from T-mobile, although S7 is coming by January (according to the article of TheVerge lol)
UPDATE 10/23/2015: I just found out MYSELF that this .cfg FILE went through 5.0 not 5.1.1 . I did not have time checking the 'about' menu 'til today. I AM VERY SORRY. How do I take down this thread? This is misleading srry
Can you pelease upload thath?

Thanks for the upload, but from what I understand this file may not be used to flash, as usually these zip files have to be decompiled and restructured somewhat to make them Odin useable. However, you may be able to use this zip file and put it on a micro sd card, put it in your phone, restart into the recovery (hold volume up rocker, home button, and power button) then select apply update from external storage and select the zip file. Again I don't know if that will work, I have done some loose reading. Unfortunately I do not know how to decompile the the zip file either for Odin, but I will see if I can contact someone on here who has decompiled these before.
It appears I missed typed. After downloading and trying to update via external storage in recovery it doesn't see the .cfg file. Trying to figure out how to use adb sideload.
Thanks for the Upload!
Will try this file to see if it successfully updates or not.
just finished bro
you are welcome! hope everything would be fine

I renamed the .cfg file to update.zip. It updated completely without any problems bro. If you could find someone how to make it usable with Odin, that would be great!

I responded to you on another thread about this, but yeah I converted to zip, and it verifies but fails once it tries to write, then factory reset the phone and restarts. I sent a message to one dev already who's decompiled these before. No response yet. I'll see if any other dev's working on the Note 4 root may be able to help or send me material to teach me how to do it.
So does rename .cfg file to .zip method work ? I saw OP reported "ok", but @arathonyi reported "failed".
arathonyi said:
It's not working currently. I tried re-downloading the file, which didn't work, and I tried adb sideload which also didn't work. Something in the zip needs to be tweaked before it can be flashed onto phones besides the OP (probably some kind of hardware signature).
EDIT - Looks like the version_info needs to be updated to whatever your current firmware is. The current contents are:
Current Firmware :N910AUCU1ANIE/N910AATT1ANIE_CL2774708_QB2373670_REV00_user_low_ship_MULTI_CERT.tar/N910AUCU1ANIE
Update Firmware :N910AUCU1COC4/N910AATT1COC4_CL4160876_QB4512549_REV00_user_low_ship_MULTI_CERT.tar.md5/N910AUCU1COC4
I'm on 5.0.1 which is probably why it didn't work, since OP said he updated straight from 4.4.4 (which is the "current firmware" listed above).

You're right, I overlooked that. I modified it a bit, it reads, but when it tries to verify it gives an error saying it could not verify whole file. I am going to take the version file out of the equation and see what happens.
Update: It provided the same error. Failed whole file verification, fails install and reset and restarts. So no luck sorry guy's I don't quite know what I'm doing. I tried looking up some stuff on Youtube with not much luck as the things I found and tried failed.

I thought i had it u.u
i used your cfg file and i converted it to a zip fail tried the update and it failed so i read a previous reply here that the person did it while being on Kit kat so i had a 4.4.4 kitkat file for my note 4 and i flashed that in so i can try the update again and everything was going fine until the update crashed but the funny thing is instead of taking me back to 4.4.4 kitkat the update took me to 5.0.1 lollipop so i dont know what happened..

Are both files necessary? i thought you only needed the Ap file.
The AP file is one of the largest and its still downloading. The website its hosted on is throttling it because I did free download. In order to get a better download you have to pay/create an account which I'm not okay with. Soooo, the AP file is still currently downloading. Here is what I have in Mega right now.

Hi guys! Due to my patience, I finally found this OTA update I downloaded from AT&T.
Now, does this file usable for odin?
here's
also, the reason why i wasn't able to screenshot it is because, my phone lagged xD
According to Tonys.94, my .cfg will be usable if you renamed it as update.zip and put it in your memory card.
It was SUCCESSFUL for me. I am now in 5.1.1 (I'm tired of waiting for ROOT haha! I need the Personal Hotspot so bad).
For those who are wondering how did I become successful in upgrading:
1. I was using KitKat 4.4.4 when I decided to borrow my friend's AT&T Simcard so that AT&T will push the update towards my phone (I am at T-mobile)
2. Afterwards, I rooted my phone so I would be able to gain root access for ES File Explorer and pullout the OTA update from /data/data/fota (i think).
3. I renamed the .cfg file to update.zip (thanks to tonys.94)
4. Make sure it's in the memory card and go to recovery mode and press apply update from sdcard.
Voala! I'm at Lollipop now! Take note that, if you are planning to use this file, all of your files will be deleted. I flashed my update.zip DURING my class lol. If you have further questions, I'll do the best thing I could do to help! I'm trying to get rid my note 4 soon and buy S6 from T-mobile, although S7 is coming by January (according to the article of TheVerge lol)
