The first tablet in Russia based on Google Android 3. 0 Honeycomb | Tablets | Reviews | Club DNS
The right side of the tablet contains a hole for connecting a charger (the gadget does not charge via USB, alas), a full-fledged USB port for connecting flash drives and hard drives, as well as mini-USB for cable connection to a computer. It is not possible to write anything to the SD card because it does not see the video.
ACER ICONIA TAB A210 tablet repair (not included)
ACER ICONIA TAB A210 periodically turned off at 50% charge until it completely stopped turning on.
The reverse side of the tablet looks like this.
Tablet on the back
Tablet marking is indicated on the end.
To disassemble the tablet, it is necessary to remove the lining from the ends and unscrew the screws under them. Please note that the tablet has not been disassembled and the warranty seal is still in place.
For further disassembly of the tablet, use a plastic pick.
ACER ICONIA TAB A210 looks like this inside. Battery marking BAT1012.
Tablet internals
The battery is empty.
Unscrew the screws around the perimeter of the battery and remove it.
To disassemble the battery, peel off the stickers around the perimeter.
Peel off the sticker on one side of the battery to gain access to the controller board. The controller is quite sophisticated, has protection against overheating, excessive current and is connected to the tablet board by the I2C bus.
Two batteries connected in series and giving a voltage of 7.7 V.
The tablet uses a power supply unit with an output voltage of 12 V. In this situation, a PSA18R-120P charger with a current of 1.5 A is used. When powered from an external PSU, we see that the current consumed during charging is 0.76 A.
When the charger is connected, the tablet receives voltage and the indicator lights red.
If you fully charge the tablet without turning off the charger, you can turn on the tablet. The model logo lights up.
However, Power off immediately lights up with the text Shutting down and the tablet turns off. The power button on the tablet is not clamped. The voltage on the batteries is 8.3 V, and at the time of shutdown 7.14 V.
We check the capacity of the batteries and find that their capacity is very different. One of them lost capacity more than 6 times.
Different battery capacity
Accordingly, the voltage on the batteries is also different and this causes the tablet to turn off.
Remove the sticker from the batteries. The inscription from the batteries was transferred to the sticker. If you mirror it, you can read the inscription SANYO 13Wh, Model: UPF476790. The physical dimensions of the battery cans are: thickness — 4.64 mm, width — 67 mm, length — 89.6 mm, weight — 61 grams.
An external 18650 cell can be used instead of a defective battery.
Connecting an external source 18650
Reverse side of the board
We can also see the display markings.
Turn on USB debugging and follow the instructions.
Enable USB Debugging
The tablet turned on on the external element 18650.
We buy and install new batteries. Their capacity turned out to be 2929 mAh and 3136 mAh. They were equipped with their own charge controllers. I didn’t clean it up.
LC77AY-0 fuses were installed on native batteries.
We return the sticker on the batteries.
However, when the tablet was turned on, the battery capacity appeared -121%.
Negative capacity -121%
At the same time, the capacity of -121% was unchanged and did not change during the operation of the tablet.
I checked the battery life of the ACER ICONIA TAB A210 tablet by turning on HD video at maximum display brightness. The tablet worked for 3 hours.
Measurement of the duration of work
The tablet is fully functional, the problem with the -121% charge indicator remains. You have to navigate by the approximate time to charge the tablet blindly.
Android does not boot into Recovery mode (does not enter) — what to do and reasons
Wi-Fi 802.11n, Bluetooth 2.1 and 3G are responsible for communication. If a cellular module is not needed (for example, you plan to distribute the Internet via Wi-Fi from your phone), then you can save a couple of thousand and take the A700 model. At comparable 5 megapixels, the colors are more natural, and there is practically no digital noise.

Back in the article about the Samsung Galaxy Tab, I talked about how good it is when you don’t need to convert movies, but you can just upload them to microSD and watch. In the case of the Acer Iconia Tab, things are even better. The docking station with keyboard and extra battery that the Asus Transformer has in particular looks much more interesting.

If the combination does not work and the phone does not start, try searching for a combination specifically for your model. There are also universal ways to launch Recovery — using a computer or special applications. If you have a computer at hand: I don’t like the power buttons, on the same lock, and the volume — they could be made more comfortable.
Acer Iconia Tab A500 16Gb
Good Android tabletUSB port for flash drive
It’s hard to find a case for a tablet, the size is non-standard, so you have to buy expensive covers.
The quality of the camera is bullshit 🙂 Not a drawback, but I will mention — the standard firmware 3.0.1 with a large number of bugs and shortcomings. immediately updated to 3.2 without delay.
1. Good cameras 2. Bright screen 3. The case will not hold together 4. Good battery 5. Flash drive socket
1. The microphone is rather weak 2.5 sockets, and there is only a charger and USB
In general, the tablet pleases. I quickly figured it out (although I’m not special in these cases), the first day I watched the movie, it hung up, then it returned to normal. I advise you to take.
I didn’t find any particular shortcomings, except for the slight buggy of the raw software and the android system itself, there are no complaints about the tablet itself, except for the weight, it’s heavy when held with one hand
The OS is rather damp, but does not cause much inconvenience. Mark screen. Video 1080p plays but with small fits and starts. Photo and video quality only on the street. Few prog on it — but it’s temporary. THIS TABLET HAS ONLY ONE MAJOR DEFECT — THIS IS ACERA!
Fast operation, usb port, powerful Nvidia Tegra 2 processor, there are a lot of good applications and games in the android market. Convenient and powerful GPS receiver.
Marked screen, camera. Normal pictures can only be taken in good lighting. But all the pluses of this device cover the minuses.
Of course, the review is late, but I want to share my dignity 🙂 It is one — Acer Iconia Tab A500 / A501. It’s a well-made, finished product that has all the functionality that a tablet should have.
This drawback can only be recognized by comparing two models A500 and A501, without or with a 3G module, respectively. Although you can connect a USB modem or a mobile Wi-Fi router from popular opsos to this device. Yes, a little sadness, GPS is not the smartest.
There are many of them and they have been mentioned more than once: screen, sound, tegra, etc. Do not be lazy, look at youtube. com there are many Russian reviews
It is clear that in the third year of use, the tablet will no longer be the same as when you bought it. But I’m not annoyed by his work, he looks like a new one. But I’m already looking for a replacement. I need a docking station, but I don’t want to buy it for an old tablet.
Considerable weight. Sometimes you get tired of it. The screen is a little glare.
Large screen, powerful games tested, high-quality camera, usb input, a lot of memory and a flash drive is not needed, you can use a SIM card,
I don’t know, I didn’t find it, if only the assembly it crunches in one place, although I didn’t drop it from the store, it was
First of all, this is an additional memory card and a USB connector. This puts it head and shoulders above all other tablets that do not have such expansion capabilities. More democratic price.
micro HDMI you have to run around the shops to find an adapter for this standard. It will be hard to read books on the road. No usb charging! (In my opinion, the volume rocker is not very well located
Convenient, you can always carry with you both to study, work, travel, and for home use. The design solution is excellent! As for wifi, they wrote that it doesn’t catch well, but everything is fine with me, even in the front door there is a good signal.
Price / quality, normal (not excellent) screen, sound, WiFi, Android.
Inconvenient screen aspect ratio. Incomprehensible animation brakes when working upside down. And most importantly: not durable glass that cannot be replaced
Bought. Was very pleased. Once fell from a height of 40 centimeters. The glass cracked. I called the service center — they said that a new one would be cheaper. Went and bought a new one, but not his anymore
decent screen, good for touch games.
The combination of heavy weight and size eliminates the difference with a netbook. At home, a netbook is more functional. For non-business trips, the acer will be too big, for business trips it is not very functional for android.
1. Battery. Holds a charge well and relatively long. U SB port. That is, it is possible to connect a regular USB flash drive or hard drive. Actually, this was the main reason for buying this unit.
In general, an ordinary tablet. Average performance, average screen resolution. Sometimes hung, overloaded. But, this is common to all Android devices. Acer supported the device for a year, then stopped updating. Would not recommend for purchase.
-the body creaks when pressed in certain places.-There are small gaps that are clearly not the manufacturer’s idea.-no SIM slot-Heavy, thick
The tablet fully justifies its price. I bought at the end of 2011 for 13990, right now it costs 17-18. At the moment I do not know if there is a better device for the money. Completely satisfied with the purchase, I read books, play, sit in the internet.
Price / quality, excellent screen, sound, WiFi, good OS, almost omnivorous.
Good screen good touch processor norms brightness is good
The camera is not the best but the photo is OK
Price. Great design, aluminum body. Convenient interface. Excellent performance. There is a USB port and an HDMI port. Great work time. Excellent, clear screen, with a wide viewing angle. Android 4.0 will be released for this device and it will be just great.
Marked screen. It is necessary to immediately glue the protective film. Too heavy. A bit unstable on 3.1. Expensive accessories. Film ~ 500r case ~ 2500. can be found cheaper in online stores in China.
Excellent price/quality ratio. This tablet has everything you need. Among tablets of the same price category, the functionality is more scarce. Satisfied with the purchase.
Very chic for both games and work! Availability of adobe flash player Very powerful and productive
Acer is too heavy to release firmware with a delay and lie with deadlines!
Vesch is held in high esteem, very happy, I bought it for my birthday and replaced my PC with it
Price, good bright screen, price, high-quality (by the standards of tablets) sound, price, USB connector, powerful hardware. In skillful hands, it turns from a toy into an excellent replacement for a netbook.
Get a better powerful laptop for the same money. And it will be truly powerful compared to this tablet! She returned hers.
Nimble interface, fresh OS, great potential for the future.
Screen, poor backlight quality. The strobe effect is very noticeable. The assembly is so-so, crunches in places. H D video from youtube slows down, does not work smoothly, jerkily.
-Weight — The standard case for this tablet is not of very high quality, the tablet falls out of it after a while after use. -Standard media player
did not find any shortcomings for himself. A lot of people talk about being overweight, but I don’t think so.
— Easy to set up: connect to wi-fi, install additional. software, etc. — Intuitive interface, albeit with some shortcomings (after 15 minutes of use you get used to it)
— Weight — Minor bugs (sometimes the browser crashes on Android 3.0.1, sometimes freezes) — Built-in reader does not open djvu files, Flash needs to be installed separately
Android with a bunch of useful software Sensitive screen, almost like in an iPad:)Excellent flash workPrice
Still, it’s not very comfortable to hold in your hands. After even 1 iPad it seems cumbersome, and even more so after the second one
And what to comment. It seems like a normal working tool-toy in one word. By the way, a couple of times it was shamelessly hung, but it seems to be working fine now. Definitely worth the money.
1) Screen, image quality2) Android 3.1 3) Price relative to an apple
1) “Acer quality” 2) there are few accessories, you have to get it if you are not a Muscovite
I have been using it for 5 days, everyone is happy. many applications and a few I do not regret it is easy to use
speaker sound is weak and expensive accessories
somewhat unwilling in the choice
mobility the ability to connect a flash drive can work with office files
raw operating system, when connected to a PC, data exchange is not possible, satellites cannot be seen
bought a bu so the price is very low.
the only one I notice is that they made a unique charger that you can’t find on the radio market? Why not via microusb. why reinvent the wheel
Everything that is stated in the characteristics
I held it in my hands for an hour) — it works smartly, a nice multi-touch, the price is acceptable.
The screen is not bright, glare, with small viewing angles + weight — after 5 minutes, I leaned my elbows on the table))))
I don’t know about you, but for me a tablet is a multimedia toy + the ability to work, of course, but still more of a toy, and for this you need a good screen, which the Acer lacks, here the iPad rules (although I don’t like everything so much apple) One hope for Galaxy)))
1. Micro HDMI — buy another cable.2. There is no charging from mini USB — it’s trash to carry a separate charger with you.3. Native cover och. expensive 3000 r. (probably will pass for a minus) 4. I don’t like the power buttons, they are a lock, and the volume — they could be made more comfortable.

I use it relatively little, but I already liked it. Excellent firmware, a new chip and much more in one bottle, and even for 14,990 rubles! It is great! Take it and you won’t regret it.
1. Low cost 2. Metal case.
— The microphone is just awful. Communicating by voice (for example, via Skype) is simply unrealistic — terrible background wheezing, gurgling and other noises. — The front camera also leaves much to be desired.
I bought without 3G for home use, as an alternative to a laptop for surfing the net, mail, watching videos and photos. Since then I haven’t turned on my laptop. For its price — a great thing, only the microphone spoils the impression.

Price, USB port, good design, quality materials, almost timely software updates.
everyone has already written everything about them
purely nitpicking, but: — inconvenient location of the front camera-hemorrhoids with updates from acer (put custom firmware from taboonay) well, that’s it
In my review, I will try to describe all the issues related to this tablet. In general, it came out as a FAQ.
Big and heavy. Didn’t find any more.
Firmware, you will fiddle with it for a very long time. Play Market, always crashed and freezes and I want to throw it away. The browser also crashes every time. It is not possible to write anything to the SD card because it does not see the video.
The tablet didn’t please me at all. Just messed around and everything. Weight more than 3 kilograms, which makes you aware of the company ACER. In short, if you have free time and want to freak out, take this option just for you. Bang your head against the wall with him.
High-quality screen, 10″, speed, current version of Android 3.2 OS (Android 4.0 is promised in the first quarter of 2012, I hope they will continue to update the OS), the presence of a full-fledged USB host.
Compared to the Asus Transformer, it’s a bit thick and heavy. But the Asus Transformer also has its downsides.
The tablet has become the center of attention of the whole family: my wife sets record after record in angry birds, my daughter competes in reaction speed with Yumm, I read books / comics and surf the Internet
Internal• Hello, I’ve encountered a problem. The device is Meizu m3s. When turned on, it hangs on the logo. Recovery Mode does not open (‘volume +’ + ‘power button’), but fastboot Mode opens (‘volume-‘ + ‘power button’). Tried to flash but failed
You do not know how to solve a problem in the operation of your gadget and you need expert advice.
In this guide, we will show you how to disable DM-Verity or Android Verified Boot (AVB) without using TWRP Recovery. One of the biggest advantages of an open source OS like Android is the ability to do a lot of customization. And if you’re a tech enthusiast, then you’ll probably take these modifications one step further. To get started, you can unlock the device’s bootloader, install a custom recovery like TWRP, LineageOS, etc., or install custom ROMs like Pixel Experience, LineageOS, AOSP, and more.
Similarly, you can also root your device via Magisk, with or without TWRP. But here the most interesting begins. As soon as you install an application and give it superuser rights, it immediately gets access to the system partition. It can then perform administrative level tasks. This is where DM Verity comes into play. Since your device is now rooted, some potentially dangerous apps may infiltrate your device and cause problems.
As a result, Google implemented a strict security mechanism called Device Mapper Verity. This prevents such applications from performing their tasks. While this is a really good move from a security point of view, it also prevents the app from performing its full functionality. The root user already knows a few things about apps that might cause problems for his device, and therefore he won’t install them in the first place.
So instead of DM Verity immediately blocking the functions of root applications, we believe that the end user should act according to the request. And that’s what we’ll be doing in this guide. We will show you how to disable DM Verity or Android Verified Boot (AVB) without using TWRP recovery. Thus, you can easily install all mods and settings on your device without any problems. So, on that note, let’s continue with the guide.
Disable DM Verity via Magisk
The first correct question that may come to your mind is why we used this method. After all, you can easily disable DM Verity by simply flashing a couple of ZIP files through TWRP. So this question becomes all the more justified. The fact is that not every Android device comes with TWRP Recovery.
Also, if you can easily root your device without TWRP and even install OTA updates on a rooted Android device, why should we depend on TWRP to complete the above task. So for all device owners who do not have a working TWRP build or who do not want to flash it, this method is all that is needed. Follow the instructions to disable DM Verity or Android Verified Boot (AVB) without using TWRP Recovery.
Get the stock boot image file
OZIP ROM extracted with Python
Install ADB | Enable Debugging
First of all, you will need to install the Android SDK Platform Tools on your computer. This will provide you with the required ADB and Fastboot binaries. After that, install Magisk Manager on your device. In the same vein, we ask that you also enable USB debugging. This will make your device recognized by your PC in ADB mode.
Disable saving AVB 2. 0/dm-verity
Fixing the boot image file
Next, you will need to patch the standard boot.img file through Magisk. Here are the necessary instructions for the same:
Bootable Flash Fix IMG File | Disable DM Verity
Finally, now you need to flash this patched boot.img file using Fastboot commands. To do this, follow these steps:
This concludes our guide on how to disable DM-Verity or Android Verified Boot (AVB) via Magisk. If you have any questions, please let us know in the comments section below.
Disable DM Verity using Fastboot commands
You can also disable authentication on your device by flashing vbmeta (and in some cases vbmeta_system and vbmeta_vendor files). Here’s how it could be done. Droidwin and its members will not be held liable in the event of a thermonuclear war if your alarm does not wake you up, or if something happens to your device and data by following the steps below.
STEP 1. Install Android SDK
First of all, you will need to install the Android SDK Platform Tools on your computer. This is the official ADB and Fastboot binary provided by Google and the only recommended one. So download it and then extract it to any convenient location on your PC. This will give you the platform-tools folder which will be used throughout this tutorial.
Download and extract stock firmware
Then download the default firmware for your device and extract it to any convenient location on your PC. Once the extraction is complete, move the following files to the platform-tools folder.
Please note that not every device has dtbo.img, vendor_boot.img, vbmeta_system.img and vbmeta_vendor.img files, this is completely normal. However, your stock firmware must have boot.img and vbmeta.img files.
STEP 3: Enable USB Debugging and OEM Unlock
Then you will need to enable USB Debugging and OEM Unlock on your device. The first one will make your device recognizable by PC in ADB mode. This will allow you to boot your device into fastboot mode. On the other hand, an OEM unlock is required to complete the bootloader unlock process.
Unlock bootloader
Next, you will also need to unlock the device’s bootloader. Please be aware that this will erase all data from your device and may also void your warranty. So, if everything is in order, check out our detailed guide on how to unlock the bootloader on any Android device.
Boot your device into fastboot mode
STEP 6: Disable DM Authentication via Fastboot
You can now disable authentication by flashing the vbmeta files (as well as vbmeta_system and vbmeta_vendor). So, follow the instructions below to start the process:
So those were the steps to disable DM-Verity or Android Verified Boot (AVB) using Fastboot commands. If you have any questions regarding the above steps, please let us know in the comments. We will get back to you with a decision as soon as possible.
In this tutorial, we will show you different ways to troubleshoot the VBMeta Image OK_NOT_SIGNED
error checking problem. The VBMeta file is used to check system integrity so that your device can only boot authorized and signed firmware. To get around this limitation, many custom ROMs now come with their own custom vbmeta, but some are still missing. And for these ROM kits, you will need to manually flash the stock or blank IMG vbmeta files.
Well, to be honest, there is still some uncertainty about this file and its usage. And that’s the main reason why we’re seeing a rise in vbmeta-related issues. Luckily, in most cases, fixing the same is fairly simple and easy to perform. And this guide will introduce you to just that. This tutorial will list four different methods to troubleshoot the VBMeta Image OK_NOT_SIGNED
error checking problem. Follow along.
There are three different methods to fix the above problem. In terms of success, I personally tested the first fix and was able to fix the problem. Two other fixes, although not tested by me, also gave successful results to testers. So, on that note, let’s get started. Droidwin and its members will not be held liable in the event of a thermonuclear war if your alarm does not wake you up, or if something happens to your device and data by following the steps below.
Flash Stock Firmware via Odin
This gave the highest probability of success, and also a fairly simple solution. All you have to do is just flash the stock firmware for your device via Odin. Like this:
STEP 2: Boot into download mode
STEP 3: Flash firmware via Odin
After the flashing is completed, your device will boot into the OS and the problem should be fixed. This concludes the first method of fixing the OK_NOT_SIGNED
VBMeta image validation error. Let’s now introduce you to two other methods.
Flash VBMeta. tar in CP slot
If you are getting this error message when flashing TWRP Recovery, then in addition to putting TWRP in the AP Odin slot, you will also need to put the vbmeta file. IMG to the CP slot. You can get the vbmeta.img from the stock firmware you downloaded for your device via Frija, or refer to our guide on how to download and flash an empty vbmeta file.
So, once the AP slot is filled with TWRP and the CP is filled with vbmeta, boot your device into download mode and then start flashing both of these files via Odin. Once the flashing is complete, your device will automatically boot into the OS. And it will also fix the VBMeta Image OK_NOT_SIGNED
validation error issue.
Flash PIT and Recovery files. img. tar
So that concludes the guide on how to fix the VBMeta Image OK_NOT_SIGNED
validation error. We have shared three different methods for the same. Let us know in the comments section which one has made you successful. Also, all questions are welcome in the comments below.
In this guide, we will show you how to remove data encryption and therefore decrypt data in TWRP. Its dominance was so strong that it’s hard to imagine a working environment without this custom recovery. Contemplating many useful features, it has really made life easier for tech enthusiasts. Whether it’s flashing ZIP/IMG files, backing up partitions, or even erasing partitions with flashing custom ROMs, there’s a lot to try.
However, he is also not free from his fair share of problems. One of the most common and annoying problems is related to data encryption. Without getting too technical, when this issue occurs, all of your filenames will be in jumbled form, with numbers and random strings of characters. In other cases, TWRP may show internal storage as having 0 MB of usable storage. All this immediately leads to many problems.
Among them, the most important problem is that you will not be able to determine the file you need to flash. And we all know how disastrous the consequences can be if we end up flashing the wrong file. In addition, some users even shared their scary stories. They planned to flash a new custom ROM, so they downloaded it and sent it to their device. They then booted the device into TWRP and wiped the system partition.
They then tried to flash the ROM, but were unable to do so as they couldn’t determine which ROM file was the actual one (because of an encryption issue). As a result, they were greeted with the message «The operating system is not installed.» Are you sure you want to reboot? Message in TWRP. Well, I have already covered a detailed guide to fix this problem, let’s now pay attention to it. Here are the various methods to help you remove data encryption and therefore decrypt data in TWRP.
We have shared a total of four different types of fixes. The last one worked in my case. However, I mentioned it at the end because it requires a full data wipe. Therefore, if you have already made a backup and are not worried about data loss, I would advise you to start with the most recent fix right away.
Others may start from the first correction. Droidwin and its members will not be held liable in case of nuclear war if your alarm clock does not wake you up or if something happens to your device and data by following the steps below to remove the data encryption and therefore decrypt the data in TWRP.
Note. Booting Android to TWRP
As the article progresses, you will need to boot your device into TWRP. To do this, you can use the help of device-specific hardware key combinations or refer to the generic method below:
Remove Lock Screen
While this may seem like a rather vague workaround, most older Android devices (3-4 year olds) and some even today know that the problem can be fixed with it. For those who don’t know, TWRP cannot decrypt data if you have enabled pattern lock because it only supports unlocking with a PIN or password. However, users are even stuck with these numeric passwords. Therefore, the best and safest option is to temporarily remove all lock screen protection from your device. Here’s how to do it:
After that, reboot the device into TWRP Recovery and see if it can remove the data encryption and decrypt the data or not.
Flash no-verity-opt-encrypt. zip via TWRP
Although his name may be difficult to pronounce, his task is quite simple: to decipher the data section. For now, this file will not be present on your device and you will have to transfer it via TWRP. However, don’t send it to internal storage (because you won’t be able to identify the file). If you have a USB OTG or Pendrive, connect it to your PC, transfer the file, then connect the OTG to your device and flash the file.
Change file system and mount data partition via TWRP
In some cases, the problem is not as difficult as it might seem. You only need to mount the data partition and TWRP will automatically decrypt the partition. To try it out, go to Mount and check the Data section. See if he can fix the underlying problem. if TWRP does not allow you to mount data, you will have to repair and/or update the file partition, which can be done as follows:
Formatting data via TWRP
So that’s all from this guide on how to remove TWRP data encryption and decrypt data. If you have any questions regarding the above steps, please let us know in the comments. We will get back to you with a decision as soon as possible.
