How to easily unlock bootloader and root Acer Iconia A1-810 tablet with Android KitKat 4.4.2


First, download and extract 'A1-810 Unlock and CWM' archive from here, here or here. This is very easy, it only takes 5 minutes, just read carefully and follow  the instructions.

Attention! Author of this guide is not responsible to any damage you got when unlocking! Only for 4.4! Warranty will void! You won't be able to flash original Acer updates!

Installing the driver
1. Find 'Drivers' folder in the extracted archive. Disable signature enforcement if you're on Windows 8 / 8.1.
2. There are two executable files:
2.1 Run install_driver.exe as Administrator if your OS is 32-bit.
2.2 Run installdrv64.exe as Administrator if your OS is 64-bit.
3. Wait 2 minutes. There's no feedback from installer.
4. Reboot PC and connect turned-off tablet to it. New drivers may be installed.
My PC has Windows 8.1 Pro x64 and everything worked just fine.
 
Preparing to serious work
1. Backup all your data!
2. Back-up all available data and MAC addresses
3. Charge your tablet on 100%!

hola la app freedom no me funciona me sale este mensaje... "write permissions on system partition are required in order to use freedom" alguna ayuda para poder usar la app... gracias

Unknown said...

Hola.freedom will not work, just like lucky patcher and others.because we don't have system r/w permissions (apps can't modify or write to system partition) and this is because of the kernel is still unlocked (Acer still don't want to publish the source code)
