hello, i just purchased a htc S740, and it seems to be going very well, i would like to know if anyone can point me in the right direction for a tutorial to be able to flash the rose with another rom, as i would like to get certain java programs running which at the moment dont work. i been trawling the forums for a few days nowto no avail, and quite scared in case i brick my fone choosing the wrong tutorial!
many thanks
waiting for the answers~~
when i use th RUU to flash a new rom, met an error.
You don't have to flash a new ROM to get Java programs to run. Just install a different Java-App. Search the forum and you'll find a couple!
Any word on custom rom development or leaks (froyo) for the Acer Stream S110?

I've already rooted Acer Stream by Universal Androot ver.1.6.2 beta 5.
Official release site is:
blog.23corner.com/tag/universalandroot/
but you couldn't read this site because it is written by chinese.(I can almost read because I'm Japanese)
XDA Site is:
forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=747598
No listed Acer stream but I could do.
I could rooted and use Titanium Backup(need rooted) but cannot work any tethering applications(inc. Liquid tether).
Hi guys.
I rooted Acer Stream S110 with Z4root. its great aplication !!!
But this morning i found in www acer ... Sorry ... I'm new in this forum and not allowed to put link.
ANDROID 2.2 FOR ACER ... but my problem i cant found recovery for this mobile.
Anybody can help me to install 2.2 on my Stream?
Thanks
Hi all,
I am now the proud owner of an Acer Stream, so let me share all the info I got
-> if your Stream is Android 2.1: get the official update from Acer http://www.acer.co.uk/ac/en/GB/content/drivers
(select smartphone > Stream > Stream then in OS)
After it's 2.2 follow this procedure:
ROOT:
I used z4root which happened to work without a hitch:

CLOCKWORKMOD RECOVERY:
Get it from here:
http://weijr-note.blogspot.com/2011/09/clockworkmod-recovery-for-acer-stream.html
Mr. Squirrel (his name in Chinese ) has been doing a great job with this device
Get the file and copy it to your /sdcard folder
If you're afraid/ don't know how to use fastboot you can use this very good Recovery Manager coded by Sebastian404 (remember though that your phone has to be rooted)
http://blog.podtwo.com/tag/recoverymanager
Now reboot as recovery, you can backup all your data to your external card, and your phone is ready to welcome a custom rom... we just have to wait someone ports CM7 or some other eye candy to it...
"we just have to wait someone ports CM7 or some other eye candy to it..." - I wish that was true, but i am afraid no one is working on that, no one that knows how to do it. I am afraid we are stuck at 2.2. Too bad cause this is a great phone.
Help
Hello friends!
I wanted to see if someone can help me. I have acer stream and try to delete some files in the root explorer. I made a mistake and selected all system files and delete them. Now my acer is a paperweight. I tried restarting and nothing. I can not start the phone is in the language selection screen. Someone has the original rom to load it again?, Or someone has a way to fix this? Thank you. : (
Good news! A first custom rom seems to be released. As I'm a new user, I'm apparently not allowed to post outside links, but you'll find the rom looking for "dark.Firmware Glacier (4.007.21) для Acer Stream".
I haven't tried it out yet, so I can't report on any experiences.
Hi, i'm developer this custom rom. Link: http://acer-club.ru/topic/13542-custom-rom-darkfirmware-glacier-400721-для-acer-stream/
If you have a question - i try to answer.
But, i say: I can't create AOSP, CM7, MIUI or 2.3\4.0 - just optimize device. Soon be a newer version of custom.
Thanks for commenting and all your efforts - I will probably try to install your rom after christmas. One question: Is it possible for you to change the size of the market cache? I can't install big apps (> 25MB) from the Android Market, even though there is enough memory left - I suppose it has to do with cache allocated to market downloads?
Happy holidays!
I don't this so. Just use Link2SD or something what. I don't have this device and development on him very sloooowly ) Happy New Year )
i've flashed my acer stream with the dark rom, it works pretty good! only bad thing is, i can't seem to change the ringtone :s
olso it is still android 2.2, it would be nice to see some roms with 2.3
I haven't installed it yet, as I'm going to travel for a few weeks soon and don't want to mess with my phone beforehand, but afterwards I'll try it for sure. By the way, there is a new release of the dark.Firmware Glacier.
Does anybody know what this is (again, I may not yet post links, but you see the url):
os-shots.com/cm-stream
P.S.: Thanks to everybody who is still investing time and other resources in the phone, I really appreciate your engagement!

the new version of the dark.Firmware doesn't work that well for me, i keep the old one.
The other link you posted seams to contain an corrupt 7z file, I can't open it anyway
maybe there is a little hope for MIUI on acer stream. check out miuiandroid.com (slash) community/threads/acer-s110-stream.11912/#post-109799
Forget. This is lens_flare - dialog with him - nothing good. His russian and I very good know him. Don't say about MIUI.
Can somebody give me link with Acer Stream s110 custom ROMs
Acer Stream backup
Hi guys, I managed to brick my Stream. CWM recovery is installed but i need a flashable backup. Can someone please upload a backup for CWM?
Thanks
Hi, I live in China and recently bought a Galaxy S3 (China Unicom version). What I didnt expect is that none of the google apps or even Google play come pre-loaded. Itried installing them individually, but after intallation it doesnt open and just goes back to the homescreen. I am just not able to open any google related app even after idownload and install APK files. i ahve VPN and can access allsites, VPN won't solve the problem.
I went through some other posts and saw suggestions around rooting and installing custom roms. can someone give me some specifics please, maybe some links? THis is not about blocked access to google play, i just cant install it and get it working on my phone. I can't return it to the store (since theres no prob with it) and I don't even care about the warrantly anymore. I just want to ensure that if i root it and install something, it be the right one that doesnt clash with the version i have and doesnt brick my phone. Partiuclars below. could someone please please help?
I am desperate now! Samsung china apps are the worst!
GT-I9300, android ver 4.0.4, baseband ver ZNLG4

Hi there from China..go to the stickies from this section..you will get all the information you require about rooting..then go to android development section and there you will get most of the roms you will need..now read the OP very carefully before flashing..all the instruction will be there in the op..most of the stock based roms have gapps included..for aosp/aokp Roms also flash the gapps package..

Yeah, they kinda suck ... except for their camera software ... It kind of rocks.
You will need to root and Rom your phone. There will be advice on how to root in the stickies as mentioned. I did it as a noob and found the task nerve-racking but in the end quite fun. I also cheated a bit and practiced on cracked open an old HTC desire and popped its cherry with Cynogen nightly. Anyway, once you root then you will be able to back up, although I don't know if there is any point to backing up instruction as your phone kinda sucks at the moment and I imagine you probably can't even get a back up app onto your phone.
This whole deal could take up a day of research and downloading and messing around. Be prepared to be without your phone for a day and to put in some time and effort - even if you are a genius, you'll have difficulty. Also, despite people saying doing it with a mac is easy - I found the opposite to be true and I use my mac waaaaaaaaaaay more than my pc. Set aside a Sat or Sunday to get lost in the world of Android. Hopefullly, it will only take you a short time, but just in case... Anyway, it is worth it.
I am using Omega ROM - you can find it in this forum somewhere. I love it - it has Google play App. I initially tried others but I found I missed the samsung camera software functionality too much.
I still need my foreign sim card for some apps and a vpn is useful too. but there is no way that I know of easily getting around the Chinese limitations... Unless you can read simplified Chinese well enough to use the Chinese versions of Google Play that must be plentiful.
Lastly, If you are a complete techno spaz. Scrap what I said, and just find a black market and get it rooted there. I don't know what it costs, but it should be cheap.
Good luck.

Oh and make sure your phone is compatible with the rom and directions ... mine was a GT-i9300 there are other models and apparently it makes a big difference. It should tell you in settings/about device/model number.
hi everyone
been having some trouble trying to work this out for myself but admitting defeat temporarily. I've tried to search this forum and online in general to try and find answers myself, but seemed to find conflicting answers and anything I've tried doesnt work. I'm not too sure what links I can post in here but basically theres a weight watchers online calculator thats flash based that I would like to access on my phone.
I've tried to install flash. I downloaded version 11.1.111.43 which should have been compatible with android 2.x versions (mine is 2.2.1) but when I've checked on the adobe site to see if flash is now working I cant see the test video.
I'm not too sure what else to try to be honest as I'm still fairly new to the world of smart phones. I thought I could download mozilla to see if i could access the online calculator this way but google play informed me that my device isnt compatible with the version......so I've hit a brick wall! any help would be appreciated
