❓ Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)
- Q1. Can I flash this OTA package with SP Flash Tool?
- No. This is a recovery-flashable ZIP file. It does not contain the `scatter.txt` file or individual partition images required by the SP Flash Tool. Attempting to flash it this way will fail.
- Q2. Will this fix an unresponsive touchscreen?
- It might. If the touchscreen problem is caused by a software glitch or corrupted driver, a full firmware re-flash will solve it. However, if the issue persists after flashing, it strongly indicates a hardware failure of the screen’s digitizer.
- Q3. I see an “assert failed” error during installation. What does it mean?
- An “assert failed” error means the update script checked for a condition on your device and it wasn’t met. This almost always happens if your system has been modified in any way (e.g., rooted, custom recovery installed, or a system file was altered). OTAs require a 100% stock system to install correctly.
🔧 Device-Specific Troubleshooting
- Installation Aborted: If the process fails immediately, the issue is often the microSD card. Try reformatting your SD card to FAT32 on a PC, or use a different, high-quality SD card. A corrupted download can also cause this; try downloading the file again.
- Wi-Fi Not Working After Update: A firmware flash should restore all connectivity drivers. If Wi-Fi or Bluetooth still fails to turn on after a successful installation, first try a factory reset from recovery. If the problem remains, it could be a sign of NVRAM corruption or a hardware issue.
- Stuck on Boot Animation (Acer Logo): This is a common soft brick scenario. If it occurs after you’ve successfully flashed the firmware, boot back into recovery mode. First, select “Wipe cache partition.” Reboot and see if it loads. If not, return to recovery and perform a “Wipe data/factory reset” (this will erase your personal data but is a necessary final step).
- Model Mismatch Issues: Ensure your device is exactly the B1-760HD. Flashing this on a standard definition B1-760 or another model could lead to display driver conflicts, causing a black screen or distorted image, or it could brick the device entirely.
