Thread: how to upgrade acer liquid E android 2.1 to 2.2 or 2.3 - Acer Liquid E

No need to apologize, everybody has been new to this at one point.

So it did not allow you to install it? Wow that is weird. Thought for sure that it would work.

There is another way but it would void the warranty (however, it would be possible to revert to stock).

It is a little bit risky, there have been a couple of instances where I have heard of it not going right and ruining the phone but I (as well as many other people) have done it many times with zero problems (if you just follow the directions carefully you should be fine). It does not root the device but does install firmware from a different region.

Just download the .bin file from here- [Only registered and activated users can see links. ] (Id reccomend 4.002.14.EMEA.GEN1 or 4.008.08.EMEA.VFIT)

And follow these directions- [Only registered and activated users can see links. ]

And if anything goes wrong, refer to this thread- [Only registered and activated users can see links. ]

Yeah just went to the Middle East Acer website and for Liquid E, there was no Froyo ROM available. My guess is that Acer stopped supporting your region. I think that flashing the .bin file is the only way.

There is a ROM for the Liquid E Ferrari, but I doubt that it would work. You can try running the Acer Installer to test it out, but I doubt that it would work- [Only registered and activated users can see links. ]

I think that the only way would be to flash the .bin.

that is my question lol. if i can install the ROM for the Liquid E Ferrari on my fone which is is Acer LiquidE 2.1 ...did you hear anything or encounter same problem like this, if this gonna work?hmmm anyway im about to go now to customer service here in riyadh...i will update you again..MANY THANKS FOR YOU HUSTLIN, i really really do appreciate your help...

ONE MORE QUESTION lol if im going to canada or in asian country will my celfone gonna work? since my ACE LIQUIDE have a version supported here in Saudi Arabia, not on canada nor asian country...OR IF Im Going to CANADA OR ASIAN COUNTRY DO YOU THINK MY CELFONE WILL BE SIMBLOCK?since it has version supported by saudi arabia..... thanks so much hustlin for your time..

Well just try it, if the Acer Installer does not allow you to do it, then it wouldnt work (I doubt that it would work since your phone isnt a Liquid E Ferrari). You can also find a .bin file for a Liquid E Ferrari ROM and flash it using the Acer Download Tool (instructions above) if you want (though I do not think that there would be many benefits over GEN1 aside from cool Ferrari wallpapers).

As far as SIM lock goes, the only Liquid Es which I know for sure are SIM locked are the Canadian ones (ones purchased through Rogers/FIDO). You should be fine (but I am not 100% sure). Maybe it is something which you could ask Acer customer service if you do choose to go there (or call them).

thnx
