Hi,
After asking root for this device dev's started replying and using this topic as dev topic! In the FP comming up important links and guides for this device!
regards, Dennis
We need E3 developers to worship
Same here, as the Acer Liquid E3 (Duo)(E380) will be rolled out the next months, and will be a nice competitor for the Moto G etc!
Some people, like the topic starter and me, will receive it in 2 weeks I guess.
Would be great if we can root it, and of course custom ROMs will be GREATLY appreciated!
It will come with 4.2.2 but an update to 4.4 will be available in the next months. Source code will be available on the Acer site, shortly after release!
(This dual SIM phone is running on a Mediatek MT6589 (Quad core 1.2GHz Cortex A7) and PowerVR SGX544)
I'm also interested in rooting the E3 ! I will receive it from Amazon in the following days.
Have you received it yet ?
Do you now the ETA for the 4.4 rom from Acer ?

Acer officialy stated that "the update for the E3 from 4.2.2 to 4.4 will be available later this year". A lot of other sites tell us 'in the near future' or even 'Q2 2014' and a lot of 'definitely before the end of this year'.
Good news though! The official support page for the Acer Liquid E3 (E380) is online NOW (look for Model/Type E380! Be ware that different countries/regions HAVE different/more files!
You can find the current E380 (Jelly Bean) Kernel Sources v20140307 there!!! :good::good::good:
Second file is the USB Driver v1.0 :good:
Last files are the different (Dual/Single, EUR-band/US-band) manuals, only to find on the American site of Acer!
The manual states there is/will be a 1GB and 2GB RAM, and a 4GB and 16GB ROM version!? Also a version with NFC. All depends on the SKU.

Maybe this method on the E350 (instead of our new E380) can help us?

Simple batch file which uses ADB to use BusyBox and Superuser etc to restore a fake backup on your phone or something like that. Check the batch file?

We were talking about rooting, you and me, but this is a trick to extend your internal space to SD (also useful!) which already requires root!

Found it! Standard method, recently (march 2014) updated, and seems to work on all phones with the MediaTek MT6589 chipset!
The Acer Liquid E2 (same chipset) was also succesful! It is very simple, and similar to the method I posted before (for Acer Liquid Gallant):
http://www.gleescape.com/posts/2376
Needed USB drivers can be found there, but our official E3 ones are to be found in my post above (Acer Support site)!
---------- Post added at 12:58 PM ---------- Previous post was at 12:38 PM ----------
The Acer Liquid E3 (Duo) E380 and the E2 (Duo) V370 seem to be almost exactly the same, which is in our favour!
http://www.gsmarena.com/compare.php3?idPhone1=6116&idPhone2=5418
(the E3 has a better cam and a bigger screen, thats about it)
Probably a lot of root methods, custom ROMs and recovery (CWM) will be usable for us, or at least simple to modify!

So you tried these three sploits for the E2 / MT6589?
What was the feedback with Framaroot (see Usage part in that post)?
And which version of the APK you used? 1.9.1?
Tried the Boromir option, this seems to be the one for the E2?
And tried the universal MT6589_Rooter / mt6589_rooting_pkg method (which seems to be succesful almost on all MT6589 phones), as mentioned on i.e. Gleescape (updated march 2014)?
And used PDAnet or universal MT USB drivers, or even better (I think) the brand new official USB drivers from Acer? And SURE your phone was in USB Debugging mode while rooting (via Developer Options)???
Last thing is that I see some people using SP Flash Tool to flash/root MT6589 phones...

Should I try Kingo ? I have mixed (not to say suspicious) feelings about this program...
Thanks man, you're the best, but this is BAD news! :crying:
Can you post all info of your device (Duo or Single (SIM) / SKU, and all OS-info (Settings > About Phone, like build, model, android, kernel, band/radio etc))?
Maybe make a signature of it (like me), thats always helpful.
Where did you get yours by the way? (I will receive a E380 Duo, bought at iBood in the Netherlands (EUR version, 1GB/4GB, no NFC)).

No clue about those kind of apps. It looks like for instance OneClickRoot. All downloadable at CNet and look commercial but seem free
You can try it, but it may contain adware, or you may have to pay or so Mixed feelings here too, and a lot of suspicion on the net (sending IMEI, trojans etc).
After reading a lot, I still have main hope on the MT6589_rooter = MT6589_rooting_pkg = motochopper, by @djrbliss (Dan Rosenberg) which unlocks A LOT (almost all) of MediaTek clones! Maybe look for newer/different versions of it?
Edit: I found out almost ALL sites have the initial version 1.0 online, but Dan's own server hosts version 1.1 !!! Try it please?
By the way, we are impatient, and should wait for Android 4.4 (in the next months) on our ALE3, and we need THOSE sources for an up to date root, custom ROM and CWM recovery!
Yes bad news, 4.2.2 has solved exploits I think...
I have attached the infos, it's a dual sim (DUO), 4GB/1GB, no NFC, EUR version.
ref: HM.HDZEF.001
I got mine from Amazon France.
EDIT: okay, maybe I will try Kingo in a VM or with blocking some connections...
I'm investigating other version of the MT6589 rooter
EDIT 2: failure with motochopper 1.1 too
Do you know Eroot 1.3.4 ?

Sick! Sure!? And after reboot?
I was also checking a new/universal used method for MediaTek / MT, with the mentioned SP Flash Tool / Smart Phone Flash Tool (v3.xxxx.xx)(for MT65xx) or the very similar MTK Flash Tool (v5.xxxx.xx)(for MT62xx), as can be found everywhere, but originates from: mtk2000.ucoz.ru
New version SP Flash Tool 3.1408.00 is out now!
A tutorial with pics can be found everywhere, like here on XDA!
They use a so called "scatter" file to root/download ROM/upload (custom) ROM or recovery. In this file a datamapping of your specific phone model is included. Download the file or even better, make your own specific one, with for instance a tool called MTK Droid Root & Tools (version 2.5.3 now).
Now rooting is 'done' (prefer a more open method, done by 'ourselves'!), we should have developers, like SC0RPION who did the custom ROMs for the E2, to do/mod a new 4.2.2 and 4.4 ROM for our E3! Source of 4.2.2 is available (link in sig) and 4.4 will be soon! And CWM Recovery for our E3 would be great too! If I'm correct we (you) can do that already, by extracting the stock recovery.img (with MTK Droid or Mobile Uncle etc) and uploading it to the CWM Builder Site and than flashing our new custom made CWM to the phone (like here, here, here and here)?
Camera problem
Wow, I was in the middle of writing a very lenghty post on how my backwards facing camera was not working on this phone (specifically, focus did not work), and the many solutions I had already tried to fix it with. Somehow I got it to work while writing the post.
The solution:
Drag the "Camera" app to the homescreen, into "App info". This will for some reason bring you to the "Gallery" app information. Press force stop, Clear data.
Now what actually fixed the camera was pressing "Clear defaults" under "Launch by default".
I hope this can help people who are experiencing this problem!
p.s. I got it from IBOOD, Netherlands, 4 Gb sd, 1 Gb ram
Closing post
Thanks a lot for d3ennisd to start this topic, but let's go on in this brand new Big Official "Hackwerk's ALE3 topic"!
Thanks too to tiliarou for testing!
The E3 is now ROOTED and runs CWM recovery, and a LOT more info we got our hands on:

PLEASE DO NOT POST IN THIS TOPIC ANYMORE, BUT GO TO THE NEW ONE, THANKS
excuse me for my bad english, does kingo is a safe way to root the E380 ? I read that kingo has closed sources ans is cotroversial ? Ther is an other way to root the liquid E3 ?

Problems with generic RK2918 ICS tablet
Hi all!!
I'm new to this forum (and pretty much to Android scene in general), so please, be lenient with me in case I unadvertedly infringe any forum norm. The matter is, I've been looking for some info about a generic RK2918 tablet I bought about 2 years ago, to no avail. As of late, the device is acting strangely (random reboots and/or stuttering running apps that it managed effortlessly a couple months ago...). I'd like to know how to flash it, as well as which rom I should install in order to make my tablet reach its maximum potential. I've heard great things about Oma's CM 10.1 AOSP roms, but I don't know which one would suit my device best.
My device's specs go as follows:
The tablet is a IMD "|97D", a 9.7" inch, 4:3 aspect ratio screen running under Android ICS 4.03
RK 2918 CPU at 1.2 GHz
1 GB DDR3 memory
16 GB NandFlash
max 32GB microSD support
WIFI 802.11 b/g/n support
G-Sensor
dual micro USB, one of them OTG
10 point capacitive screen with IPS 1024 * 768 resolution
2MP front and back cameras
The device is currenly running under its default firmware (i.e. no root access). Any help and/or piece of advice on how to proceed would be extremely welcome. Thanks in advance!!
Sir Oma,
I flashed this rom to my Alcatel One Touch T10, CrewRKTablets_RK29_AOSP_4.2.2_r1_v1.3_20130714 with stock kernel 308 Alcatel T10 and
applied CrewRKTablets_AOSP_4.2.2_Format_NAND_fix. It is pretty stable however the battery status monitoring is not working. I have also
tried the other kernels said to be compatible with T10 notably the Pascal2 kernels. They seemed to work Ok but the screen display was
off-center, display was leaning to the right side of the screen. Same result when using the other stock kernel 308 Alcatel T10_2.
My only concern is the battery status monitoring, it remains stationary all through the whole hours of tablet use. Charging detection
is also not working. The rom however can detect the current battery status only when rebooting. I did try to apply the akku fixes for
JB and CM10, (though not intended for the AOSP rom) none worked. It ended up in bootloops.
Can you suggest a battery fix intended for CrewRKTablets_RK29_AOSP_4.2.2_r1_v1.3_20130714 rom? Of all the JB 4.2.2 offering found
at CrewRKTablets site, this rom proved to be useful and stable to my Alcatel One Touch T10 tablet. There are some minor function
issues like display resize "fit to standard screen" option, it does not work. Camera image is upside down. But I guess to a standard
user (like me) these function should not pose a serious problem as installing and running apps intended for JB 4.2.2 works smoothly.
Thank You and More Power!
@ tinko75, tried the BQ-pascal kernels too but to no good.
Hello,
I´ve got the neo X7 and because my sis and i want to use it and i have heard that you can choose between two accounts at this ROM i want to installt it.
I have the s4mini with CyanogenMod 12 but about that i´m clear but with the Neo X7 i have no Idea how that works... so can anyone explain me how to install it (maybe a step for step Instruction)
The Tablet is in a originally condition (there is no CWM or anything else. So i need all...
Thanks in advance

Replacing the boot file
Hello, I am the user of a samsung galaxy exhilerate. I was very excited to find this page so that the CM roms could work again. However I unzip the folder replace the boot file and rezip the folder and upon attempting install the installation is aborted shortly after starting. Is there something I have to do to the file besides rezip it? Sign it or something like that? I have read some tutorials about zipping apk files but nothing on zip files. Any help would be appreciated.
Edit: Downloaded winRAR which allowed me to open the zip file, replace the boot file and unlike doing this by default in windows the signature was still present, so I am good.
My other question: Why aren't the people posting these nightlies aware of the issue? I'm probably not understanding something about the development process because I am new to it, but I can't figure this out.
Edit: I would also like to report a bug in kitkat 4.4.4 on my samsung galaxy exhilerate. I am using the cyanogen mod nightly from Oct 31, 2014 with the boot file provided in this thread to make it work.
The issue is with bluetooth, when I make calls I only hear some popping noise when iniating the call, no words ever come through and they cannot hear me on the other end either. This worked fine with stock ICS but I have had these issues with 4.4.4 and cyanfox unofficial 4.4.2. While using my phone to make calls in my car through ford SYNC bluetooth works fine when I am called but does not work for outgoing calls, very strange as this is in contrast to it not working at all with my headsets (I have an old headset and a new one purchased last week)
I have found a this information from the android police website:
"For the first few years Android relied on BlueZ, a "protocol stack" originally developed by Qualcomm for the Linux operating system. Despite many limitations and missing features, BlueZ served admirably until Android 4.2 launched with a new stack dubbed Bluedroid, a project built jointly by Google and Broadcom."
My Exhilerate uses a Qualcomm for 4G as illustrated by a sticker on top of the phone (perhaps this hardware vendor is the same for the bluetooth function?) In this case it would stand to reason that moving to a broadcom based software after Android 4.2 could cause some issues for this phone. Is there any way to either use the old pre- android 4.2 software for bluetooth while keeping the other software the same, or better yet is there a workaround to get my phone to work with the broadcom based software?
So I recently got an Exhilarate and want to put a rom on it. I did CM on my previous phone so I'm not entirely new at this, however that one was a stable release.
I'm interested in Carbon for this phone but I'm wondering if there's any outstanding issues? I'd read that in the early days there were issues with the camera and sound. Are these resolved? Any others I should know about? I'd like to know before rooting my phone.
Thanks!

I have had that same crazy Bluetooth issue on every custom ROM on the Exhilarate (JB & Kitkat). I've searched all over the place for a solution and come up empty. It's my only issue besides not having enough internal storage space.

The Exhilarate is a whole new phone with a kitkat ROM. I highly recommend CarbonROM with the Uber kernel (hyperlink in my signature). A strange Bluetooth in-call audio problem as discussed above is the only significant issue; Bluetooth works just fine for all other audio. Note...the July 31st nightly was the last one that will boot properly without replacing the boot.img file.
Camera works fine, however barcode scanning apps will show a black screen but still work.
Speaker volume is a bit low. Headset volume is reasonable.
boot.img
I think the boot.img link is broken. Can you upload the boot.img one more time please.

Don't flash it. You need to delete the "bad" boot.img from the ROM zip file and copy this one into the zip file. Use a compression utility app like ZArchiver to do that. You can find it on the play store.

hey guys,
just wanted to tell you that at the miui forums there is already a cyanogenmod 12.1 ported for the redmi 3. its a zip to load via TWRP and only for unlocked bootloader.
its the 4th version and it's pretty much stable. been using the rom as a daily driver for 5 days now and everything worked so far. i havent tested every function but camera, gps, wifi, 4g data, bluetooth, etc works super fine. only thing is that battery life is superior on original miui rom. anyone interested in getting rid of miui check out the link.

p.s. wipe phone first before installing CM.
p.p.s. don't forget 64bit gapps if you need it!

Great news!
How bad is the batterylife and is the pictures taken with the camera as good as with miui?
I dirty flashed this 4th version over the 3rd one. No need to flash gapps if you dirty flash from previous version.
There are 5 chinese apps, I froze them with titanium.
No issues so far. Been using the 3rd version about a week now.
So how is the battery life?
battery life with the 4th version is pretty much on par with miui now.
this cm comes with root (toggle in developer options) so i just uninstalled the 6 Chinese apps with system app remover.
What about camera quality, focus speed and HDR? Are those on par with MIUI?
Chinese user here! I flashed this ported CM 12.1 this morning. I also found the annoying existence of Baidu and 360 apps preinstalled in this rom. Because im not sure how xposed works with this ported CM 12.1, so i flashed back to MIUI 6.3.25 for there's a relatively stable xposed support
Using it for over 2 days now and I am impressed.
Its very stable and fully operational.
Apart from chineese apps pre-installed, theres not even one fault with it.
Battery and camera just fine, as on original MIUI.
Beauty and simplicity of CM was just what I needed for my Redmi3.
Cheers.
Does someone know if this will work on redmi 3 PRO?

Most likely, it wont. Even though phones have exactly same specs, you might find that there could be some differences in things like sensors, camera etc.
So yeah, it might boot, but you most likely will be annoyed by multiple things not working (including fingerprint sensor)
there are a few versions on the miui chinese forums (which I can read and translate), anyway what I've read is that 1 of the CM12.1 ROMs come with trojan horse (but scanned via a chinese security app 360 antivirus) - http://www.miui.com/thread-3980415-1-1.html (the user said she was on CM12.1 4th version)
Please do try a scan with your antivirus (on Android, I use Sophos) of choice just to be safe. I would do it but I'm still waiting for my bootloader to be unlocked.
What I've heard on the forum linked above is that development from cofface is trustworthy, hence I searched and indeed there is a CM12.1 ROM that was just uploaded. (http://www.miui.com/thread-3986022-1-1.html) It does not appear to come with any Chinese apps like the 4th version listed above. Maybe it's worth a try? (I'm not sure)
All CM12.1 versions:
http://www.miui.com/thread-3985299-1-1.html ROM dated 3/30, modded by Liberation, original by Flour_Mo (comes with Chinese apps)
http://www.miui.com/thread-3986022-6-1.html by Cofface (doesn't seem to have any bloatware)
http://www.miui.com/thread-3968326-1-1.html 4th version by Flour_Mo
CM 13 is also in the works but will take some time to become stable..
**apparently there is a buggy LED notification in all CM 12.1 builds

Hey, thanks for keeping us posted. I would like to install this cofface rom, but I cant get through chinese websites. Could you please give me a link, or upload it for me?
Much obliged.
can someone please share a link but not to chiniese site where to download i have to sign in with my phone number ?
How does performance looks compared to MIUI ? Do phone/contact/camera/messege apps launch faster or slower compared to MIUI ? How much free RAM is available after reboot ?

Thank you very much for clearing this up! I knew that there was something dodgy going on with those Roms!!! All the crap they are saying about "how we should use those apps and support devs" did sound like pile of sh*t to me. Someone from here really should post some screenshots of AV scans there and expose those bastards. It's really annoying that someone is even trying to do that...

When I was trying cm builds, the performance was actually really good. But somehow I started to like miui about free RAM, there was around 1.2 gigs available, I think. That decreases to 1 gig after you install gapps.

Go to miui forums and people usually re-post Roms to some other *drive website like gdrive again, I do not recommend using any of those scammy Roms until it is clarified that Roms are actually clean and legit

i think some of the developers there are legit (like the rooted ROM on this forum by greatslon and TWRP recovery by cofface http://www.miui.com/thread-3917207-1-1.html), not to worry, I believe it might even be false positives, since the AV scan is from a Chinese AV app (360 security) so... there is a chance its reporting false positives. Just have to see the response from those who have already flashed the ROMs. As for links to download, alright, will try to re-upload those ROMs or post the link to download here. Its actually pretty safe to register your phone number because its linked to the MIUI servers (the Chinese like to use phone numbers as a way to access many features, such as Airport WIFI etc)
To those wondering how to see the download links - its like the english version of the MIUI forums. you will have to set up a forum account, then comment once to gain "experience" and then the download link is revealed.
Hello guys, unfortunately I can't move my apps to the SD card. I have a UHS class 10 64Gb SD Card.
It says that I don't have enough space, while I have a lot, like 57Gb free.
Is anyone having the same problem, if not, how can I solve it anyway?

Sorry, I probably should have explained more what I meant.
cofface is a legit dev, who seems to be doing a great job for out little community.
But other devs, who do stuff like pre-installing some weird apps... I honestly cannot think of any excuses of why they are doing that, apart from spying/collecting your address books/etc.
So yeah, the only rom to try is cofface's at this moment. But then again, I can't seem to find any download link in that Chinese thread.
Anywho, I'm looking forward seeing cm13 on our phones, which is pretty exciting. And hopefully Android N in a near future ^^

I've posted the ROM in the xda forum and uploaded the ROM on google drive and MEGA. here's the link: http://forum.xda-developers.com/redmi-3/development/rom-cm12-1-redmi-3-t3348916
the forum functions like the english miui forums where you have to create an account (your english miui account will do fine) and comment before you can see the download link! and the pre-installed apps are the chinese alternatives to the google apps that they don't have access to. If I'm not wrong.

You may need to edit your permissions xml file to include rw on media line to have it working right. http://zidroid.com/how-to-fix-extsdcard-mount-issue-on-kitkat-and-lollipop/
After restarting it again install all setup , when restore setup come , it's restart again and again,
This problem comes after restart REDMI NOTE3
AFTER FACING ALL PROBLEM I DONE RESTORE FACTORY RESET AND AGAIN REINSTALL THEN IT WORKS BUT AFTER RESTARTING I FACING ABOVE PROBLEM AGAIN
Please give me solution
1 st your posting in development thread which is not the right place for your query.
2nd Which device have you this is for Mediatek devices and there is not a Pie rom for them.
3rd Look at PE Thread and you would see it is a problem with the rom, flashing the VoLTE patch fixes it. Or wait for rom update.
Oh dear - you've done goofed up - Hennessey-based devices (Xiaomi Redmi Note 3 - MediaTek Edition) doesn't get anywhere near as much development as the Kenzo-Kate devices (Xiaomi Redmi Note 3 - Qualcomm Snapdragon 2GB/3GB RAM Editions), and Android Pie isn't even developed for the MediaTek version of the phone.

Don't go around asking for stuff, we don't get paid for this, you caused a problem, you're the one who needs to fix it, no one has any obligation to help.
That said, if you had read the thread instead of just downloading the ROM you'd have noticed tons of people with the same problem and all have been given the same solution, flash the VoLTE fix.
Also, you posted on the wrong forum, this one is for mediatek based devices.
Guys, don't mind to reply OP. This man doesn't know how to read properly

No you don't install Pixel Experience 9.0. It isn't available for this device (henessy).
If you have kenzo or kate, then you want the Xiaomi Redmi Note 3 [Snapdragon] forum.
