(14-10-2017, 09:02 PM)Conman37 I just googled it, so I know what it means now.
Yes, I do have stock rom. Do I need a custom rom to root?

P.S. I posted my build number and chipset above like you asked.

You'll need a custom recovery (not custom rom) to root and to create that. we'll need the scatter file and stock recovery.img from the stock rom of your phone.
Now, I think you're still not getting what I'm asking for.
I'm not asking if your phone is running on stock (unmodified) rom. I'm asking if you have the firmware for your model because we'll be needing some files from it

you'll need to search online for the firmware of your device.
you can also try dumping the firmware of your device in scatter file format using the guide @ https://www.hovatek.com/forum/thread-13347.html
lets know if you are successful

I searched for "acer iconia one 10 b3-a20 firmware" on google. The first thing that came up was "product support for B3-A20" on the official acer site. I clicked on it and scrolled down until I saw this:

Size: 76.4 KB / Downloads: 17

If I click on the os tap it gives me a download link.

Is that the firmware?

If the Miracle Box dump attempt fails then go ahead and download that firmware (OS) and lets know when done

I am very sorry for not responding for so long. I have been busy. I will try the miracle box. Is there a way I can install miraclebox on Mac? I only have macs in my house, but if I absolutely need to, i can use my friends pc. But I would prefer using a Mac if possible.

My friend who has a PC is out of town. So I downloaded the OS firmware from the website like you told me. What files would you like from it?
