Tablet Tampered With?

icw35

I bought a "allegdly" refurbished A3-A30 from Argos e-bay. When I boot into fastboot it says:

 

PRODUCT_NAME - omega

VARIANT - A3-A30

HW_VERSION - 

BOOTLOADER VERSION - unknown

UEFI VERISON - 1.0.6

SERIAL NUMBER - **************

SIGNING - ?

SECURE_BOOT - ?

 

E:No valid installer medium found

 

To me it looks like this has been tampered with? Will reflashing the stock firmware correct this?

 

And where can I get the stock ROM for the A3-A30, can't find it anywhere.

 

And I can't take it back as the warranty has now expired. It worked fine for a while but now randomly shutsdown. I wanted to re-flash it - to see if this fixed the issue and that's when I discovered the above.

 

Any help would be grateful!!

I flashed the ROM and then updated. Still have the same issue - random shutdowns. I guess a battery replacement is next.

 

Anyway I should have looked on Acer.com before as I only checked acer.co.uk - rookie error.

 

Why is it though that the fastboot doesn't contain all the details? Is that normal in your experience?

 

Cheers.
