Acer Iconia B1-710 bootloop and hard brick fix - Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

For all of you out there having Iconia B1-710 in boot loop or hard bricked, this is the way to fix it.
I'm not responsible to any damage you got when following the instructions.
!!!YOUR WARRANTY WILL VOID!!!
This will fix SPFT errors 2004, 6010, 1010.
At this moment I'm not able to upload files so contact me over email: [email protected]
First of all, read this entire post and make sure that you have MediaTek DA USB VCOM drivers installed.
If not do this:
1. Extract all files from the archive and run every program as administrator.
2. Disconnect the tablet from the PC, remove the back cover and pull off the battery connector.
3. Open device manager and expand Ports (COM&LPT) selection
4. Connect the tablet to the PC and right click on any new shown device. If it's reconnecting don't worry, you just need to be fast and right click it and select Update Driver Software.
5. Click on Browse my computer for driver software and click Let me pick from a list of device drivers on my computer.
6. Uncheck Show compatible hardware and from the shown list find and select only MediaTek DA USB VCOM. If MediaTek DA USB VCOM is not shown you didn't installed the drivers correctly.
DISCONNECT THE TABLET FROM THE PC AND DO NOT PUT BACK THE BATTERY CONNECTOR
1. Now open SPFT and select the scatter file.
2. Click on window and then Write memory
3. In memory settings select EMMC.
4. Click Open Raw Data and select secuoff.img
5. In Begin address write 0x1F88000 and in Container Length write 0x427100
6. Click Write memory and connect the tablet. Green circle should appear.
7. Now go back to download selection and make sure that everything is selected (including preloader and dsp_bl).
8. Press download. If everything was good you should see a green circle.
9. Remove the USB cable and put the battery connector back and back cover to place.
DO NOT TURN IT ON. CONNECT IT TO CHARGER AND LEAVE IT ABOUT 15 MINUTES TO CHARGE.

mtk6575 unbrick

Hey,
I have been years just reading these forums but never made any posts, so thats why I cannot post to development section anyways. I happened to totally brick my phone by flashing wrong preloader into it. However this morning i succesfully reflashed it and now I have somehow working phone (just need to find new rom now) but anyways. This thread is to help other people who has semi bricked their phones as well.
Current situation.
-Phone doesn't charge,
-Phone doesn't turn on (nothing happens)
-Computer sees phone for few secs, so you have "META mode" access. If your computer doesn't see your phone at all make modified USB connect the 4pin to ground. This is what I did actually. If that doesn't work you can google for test points.
My device:
MTK6575 (Fake mt6589)
512MT RAM (fake 2GB)
800x460 resolution (fake 1920x1080)
4GB internal memory (fake 8gb)
5" screen
2200mah battery (fake 3000mah)
OK this is the prodecure that got my phone back to live!
Install windows XP (Yes, windows 8 didn't work for me. most likely drivers are not ready for it. I will not write steps how to install windows xp)
Install USB deview
-Google it, download it, extract package and run it
-Remove all drivers related to Mediatek, android, usb vcom etc.
Download and install VCOM USB Drivers
-Download these drivers http://www.mediafire.com/download/31nddwqdot5ajp2/MT6575+USB+VCOM+drivers.zip
-Put your phone battery in (50% charge) required. wait 10s. Take battery off and connect your phone to PC as meta mode ( modified USB cable, VOL+/- while connecting, you can read more about this from here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1943442
-When your phone is connected it will disconnect after ~3-5seconds. Now you have to wait in device manager connect the phone right click the device when it shows up. Install driver from the location where you unpacked your VCOM USB drivers/2K_XP_COM/ dont automaticly install them but manually. After windows have found drivers UNTICK show compatible devices. And MANUALLY select preloader driver. Now it will install it the next time the device connects. OK now we have Preloader driver in place. Notice that we will install one more driver later needed in flashing procedure. Disconnect phone.
Now download compatible rom. for me My backup was not working, but this rom worked out perfectly:
http://search.4shared.com/postDownload/wILsUT7J/MTK6575_S4_FLASH_TOOLS_YEDEK.html
Download SP Flash Tool v3.1222.00, extract it.
Ok lets recap what we have now:
-preloader drivers
-phone disconnected
-SP Flash Tool v3.1222.00
-back up we can use to flash
Open flash tool, enter scatter file and go to Format
-Select Format whole flash except bootloader and nvram bin region. -> connect phone -> succeed
-Select Format NVRAM bin region ONLY -> connect phone -> succeed
-Select Format whole flash -> connect phone -> succeed
Ok. Next we need to flash compatible rom this part is tricky. Read before doing anything.
-Disconnect your phone, enter battery (50% charge required)
-wait atlaest 15seconds, and remove battery
-(I dont know why those steps were required, but didn't work without it)
-Open SP Flash tool select scatter file and select all checkboxes
-press download
-connect your phone in META mode with Preloader drivers we installed before.
-Now red prograss bar will start going and phone will disconnect After it reconnect We want ANOTHER drivers are located in the same place but now we need to select Mediatek DA Vcom USB drivers. If everything went fine you get yellow progress bar and it will reflash your phone! :victory:
In the last part if you got Error 5054, This is good. It means your phone is still alive! but your current preloader does not match the data you are going to flash. So you need to go back to google and download other rom try flashing everything (thats what I did, before hitting jack pot, eventually you will find compatible rom)
If you got ERROR 3002 switch back to SP Flash Tool v3.1222.00 newer one doesn't work!
I got some other errors as well when flashing and I solved them but didn't write down the errors so I cant remember them sorry
Remember before connect phone as META mode. Plug in battery with atlaest 50% power wait 15s. remove it. and connect the phone to PC. This was the mysterious step I was missing when struggling with this 5 days!
By the time of writing this article I got my phone working rom, everything works.
GOOD LUCK
ps. Sorry for typos.
:angel: kthxbai
thanks!
AND THANKS FOR yuweng and rui1 who made this all possible!
anyway now I'm back to porting CM to our device. hopefully this helped somebody (and yes, I will be more careful this time)
Hi, it worked for me and i could unbrick my mtk6575
Hi, there
rom given in post worked for me
and i could finally unbrick my phone, but now it asks for the password to decrypt storage after boot. I don't know what to do.
please provide password or any solution to it.
my device is stuck on boot?

Bootloop: Acer Iconia A1-810 without stock recovery, adb neither fastboot

[HELP] Bootloop after flashing: recovery-clockwork-6.0.3.1-p4.zip -> NOOB!!!!
I`ve just tried everything related to this issue on this forum!!
Before the bootloop i had access to the adb and fastboot features by usb debbugging (sdk manager) and stock recovery, etc...
With the Bootloop, now i can´t access to the stock recovery with the 1001 combinations of the buttons, removing the battery, pressing the volume button and then connect to the pc via usb, adb reboot, and so on and so on.... nothing works!!
The pc only recognizes via usb the Tab (1 second) asking for MT65xxPreloader, like a bootlooping asking for this controller. I´ve installed this controller and the bootloop remains - 1 second each boot...
Anyone can help me to solve this dead brick? Is is not possible make a startup disk via sd card like exists for windows, for example??
Without PC connection i don't see the solution.....
Thanks in advance!!
You will need to use mtk software to enter meta mode.

Thanks for your answer!
My device can´t still enable to enter in meta mode. I tried MT6573, MT6577, MT6589 VCom driver, the SP Flash tool doesn´t locate the DA path for the function download scatter loading file.....
I followed this tutorial: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2206421&nocache=1, for windows Vista. It seems the controller is installed, but the SP flash tool or MTK tool doesn´t recognize my iconia A1-810.... I loaded the *.txt file: MT6577_Android_scatter_emmc.txt and marked all options ans appears a error: FLASHTOOL ERROR: S_FTHND_FILE-IS-NOT-LOADED-YET (5007)
I disconected the battery and when i connect usb to pc the driver apppear for 1 second with the Mediatek Preloader vcom controller and enter in loop again... appear and disappear on the PC Device Manager.....
I´m completely lost.. can you suggest something?
Thanks
flashtool error image attached
check it maybe will help, good luck !
I bought my Acer A1-810 it’s 2,5 months (from amazon). And few days ago I decided to root it. 1 hour later i realized that was not a really good idea, because i did not know much things about, and it was not as easy as I thought. and voila as a result : bootloop !
I tried different roms, different update.zips but got allways the same error : ” check.partition.size=[__PROP_UNDEFINED__] ”
I was desperate…I was at the point of resend it to Acer for repair. But last try was successful, I did it, I did !!! And there is how !
1. go to acer web page --->support--->drivers and manuels
2. choose your model acer a1-810
3. As my divece was bought in usa, my FW upgrade is AV052.RV26RC06.PA.CUS1 (in O.S ), download it !
4.when it’s done, you should unzip and should get update.zip separately.
5. Put update.zip on SD card
6.Put SD card in your device.
For next steps see the manuel of update

pass levigati
I think that i m during my first flashing click on firmware/upgrade instead downlad.
Maybe is this main problem?
thnaks
I've seen the other thread in xda forum that solved this problem and it's because of the preloader file but thing is which preloader file that solved this DRAM failed problem. Anyone? Please.. share the link or files included the steps?
Solution that I've already try and end up error.
- try other S820 Stock ROM , load up in SP Flash tool and end up with same error "DRAM Failed"
- take out the batt. plug in back after hit the "download" button from SP Flash tool and at the same time plug onto usb while pressing power + vol. down @ both vol. button and end up with the same error.
p/s : in my case, the usb drive is well connected and recognize by my laptop/pc desktop and I'm pretty sure that this has nothing to do with the usb driver cause my laptops still can detect my phones (com port).
Problem Solved.
I've download several files and my phone turn on back. Follows below step if you're having same problem as mine.
Problem :
Phone is already update to a new version 4.4.2 Kitkat (don't know which or what rom since this phone is not belong to me) and from what owner tell me is that this rom that installed has no gapps and he tried to install the gapps.
after flashing it, phone become dead and won't boot even can't see the bootloader. Just nothing if you hold up the power + vol. down / up or power + vol. up and down.
When plug in phone to pc / laptop, phone is detected by Lenovo usb port or MTK usb port.
Solution :
*IMPORTANT* make sure you came from what version. (mine is 4.4.2 kitkat)
Things that you need -
sd card (just enough to put the required files), usb cable, SP Flash tool v3.1328.0.183, preloader.bin file, S820_ROW_S119_130922 files and S820 Multi language files.
1. Download all the requirement files.
S820 Custom Multi language and pre_install_rom v9 here
preloader.bin file here
S820_ROW_S119_130922 here (login and passwd can be found here)
2. Extract the S820_ROW_S119_130922 files and extract the target_bin.zip files.
Then extract the Pre_install_rom v9 and rename the folder as target_bins. After that,
extract the preloader.bin files and put it on the target_bin folder. (Don't worry as in target_bin folder already has the preloader_S820_ROW.bin (119kb) ). Done extract the files, check your phone either your machine detect it by name MTK usb port or Lenovo usb port. If it is MTK then we're good to go. ( If other than that, please uninstall any other lenovo driver that you already installed in your machine. Restart machine and check again whether your machine recognize it as MTK port or Lenovo usb port. ) When you done with this, unplug your phone from your machines and leave it aside.
3. Run the SP flash tool (admin rights) and select the MT6589_Android_scatter_emmc files that located in target_bin folder. Tick the DA DL with all checksum. Then copy Checksum files in folder target_bins and paste it on target_bin folder and on SP flash tool click download. Let it load for a moment until at the bottom of it (EMMC) you see "searching".
4. take out your batt. and plug in back then plug the usb cable to your machine and wait for the sp flash tool detect your phone and start the flashing process. After done flashing, now your phone has the CWM recovery. Unplug the phone from machine and leave it aside.
5. Copy the yaaki_v9_lenovo_S820_KITKAT_4.4.2_rooted files into your sd card and plug into your phone. Press and hold the power + vol. down + vol. up and wait until you see the Lenovo logo then you can see the CWM recovery. Go to install from sd card and select the yaaki_v9_lenovo_S820_KITKAT_4.4.2_rooted files and flash it. Wait until the process finished and after it finish installed, go back and reboot system now and choose NO for disable the CWM recovery flash.
6. Wait for around 2 - 3 mins. for the updated apps. Phone rooted + gapps + custom CWM recovery.
THANKS!!!
I can't describe how much i appreciate your post. I had the exact same problems as you did, I even used the some first rom to flash which made me problems. 3 days the phone was dead. Then I tried and did the exact from how you wrote in the last post and my s820 is live again.
:laugh::laugh::laugh::laugh::laugh:
Now I'm completly sure to update mi phone, thanks!
Please help
It has been asked to extract S820_ROW_S119_130922 and extract the target_bin.zip. Further you are asking to extract Pre_install_rom v9 and the rename the folder to target bin. And again you are asked to put the extracted preloader.bin to the target bin.
I’m quite confuse over this and so I would like to raise few questions.
1) To which target bin you are asking to put the preloader.bin file? ROM’s target bin or renamed (Pre_install_rom v9) target bin?
2) And in step 3 you are asking to choose MT6589_Android_scatter_emmc from target bin. Now please tell me which target bin I have to choose? If it’s from the renamed target bin (Pre_install_rom v9) then what is the use of extracting S820_ROW_S119_130922 and again the target_bin.zip? Or if it’s from ROM’s then what is the purpose of extracting Pre_install_rom v9?
Unsuccessful !! Not working.
Flashing was completed successfully. But unfortunately ended with just a flash in the screen. It doesn't start at all.
For device produce in 2014 you must download a new preloader 2014, extract it to ROM folder and remove the checksum.ini file, and flash using SP tool.

Ok here it is:
1. download in your computer the drivers
2. install drivers
3. restart your computer (just to be sure) (skip steps 1.2.3 iff you have allready installed drivers)
4. now... turn off your phone
5. plug your USB cable in your computer
6. plug your USB cable in your phone
7. new hardware detected should appear... and should install drivers automaticaly
8. after the drivers are installed unplug your cable from the phone and restart your computer (just to be sure)
9. after restart start flash tool
10. load scatter file from ROM directory(should be target_bin directory)
11. check DA,DL WITH CHECKSUM (NOT OPTIONAL)
12. press Firmware Upgrade button (NOT DOWNLOAD BUTTON)
13. now just now plug usb cable to your phone.
14. firmware flash should start.(some red and other color lines should appear)
15. iff the firmware is not starting remove the case of your phone and hold pressed the little red button for about 20 seconds then release. All this must be done with cable pluged in to your phone.
16. after flash is done a green circle should appear
17. disconect your phone and power on your phone
18. lenovo logo should appear. then you should be pacient because it will took some time before android boots for the first time.
19 Good luck.

The phone is not getting detected I believe I installing MTK drivers but no luck when phone is connected to system in Device manager it show other devices and MTK driver with an ! mark but with in few seconds it goes off. I tried with many times but enabling all USB options from my phone. I will really appreciate your assistance thanks in advance.

7. Hit the download button
8. Now plug in the micro/type C usb end of your cable to your phone but dont plug to PC. yet
9. While hold down both volume buttons i.e up and down buttons, (Do not press the power button), Insert the Usb cable end to your PCs usb port (Please choose a port thats very reliable).
10. After a while, P Flash tool will begin to upgrade your phone, dont release the buttons yet, let it lapse about 2mins then release them, the firmware upgrade will still continue and it will display a tick pop-up when done (this may take between 5-10mins).
