All,

To avoid the issues with any roms/rooting, I unrooted the phone, as stated in the first post.

I basically got the phone back to 'stock' settings, and I have this issue. Any additional help would be great...this is my first experience with Android and it has only been headaches....

getting nostalgic with my old E71. haha
[Vibrant General] s15274n:
So, did you use odin to go to jfd?

I'm really interested and willing to help, just santo make sure I understand everything that you've done.

How did you root?

Why no external?

as i know google limits the attachement size...

(have read somewhere) 20mb through web-ui and 2.x mb at android but can´t confirm imho...

attachments that do not go through may also be caused by the receiver of the message (and their email account limit for attachments.)

my quick test:

trying to send a 12mb attachment through gmail to a yahoo account

-> msg is remains at outgoing-dir..saying will be send..

trying to send a 12mb attachment through normal mail app (yahoo) to my gmail account

-> got failure notice (unable to deliver) and a notice to googles attachment guidelines

sending to another yahoo account

-> send successfully but waiting for delivery

-> after hours still waiting for delivery...

hope that helps a little to find ur answers...

[Acer Iconia A500] Neoprimal:
Instead of 100 people posting etc. with the iconia, how about we try to work with 1 concise list? At the end of this week I'll call Acer to see what on this list (if any) are known and being worked on.

Please be concise, I don't really want explanations. Just copy the issue and put a + beside something you're experiencing/seeing and I will use that to make the list or add your flavor to the issue, but be as precise as possible please.

I've added these from memory. I'm not adding hardware or perceived issues (dead pixels, slip factor, button placement, etc.)

If it's not here, add your issues (to the point) and I'll add it to the list.

Also, please list your build along with your post and optionally the area in which you purchased, just state or European equivalent (TX, USA for eg).

Settings, About Tablet, Build Number is where you can find the build number.

My list will be blow this one, as an example.

The List:

1. Backlight comes on randomly

1.1 Happens ALOT

1.2 Happens RARELY

2a. Tablet freezes during long periods of non-use/during sleep

2b. Tablet turns off during long periods of non-use/sleep

2c. Tablet reboots randomly

2d. Tablet turns off randomly

3. Experiencing obviously weak wifi signals

4. GPS won't work without Wifi

5. MicroSD not showing up after wake from sleep

6. Cell standby active and draining the battery

7. Can't disable wifi?/can't turn off wifi/wifi turns itself on

8. Compass wrong/"off"

9. Consistent Market Crashes

Update:

It's about a week later, I will be submitting the list on Friday the 20th. It looks like the same problems are plaguing at least 2 build numbers. I also don't like that Acer hasn't issues a single update for the tablets yet - though it is rather soon, I'm comparing this to the Xoom and Asus machines which have already gotten several. Of course on the other hand, both the Xoom and Asus have been on the market for at least a month earlier so hopefully Acer won't take TOO long to issue at least one fix.

From the list there seems to be 2 MAJOR issues, but of course that is relative. In my opinion the freezing/crashing and the backlight coming on seem to be the most prevalent ones. The market crashes I don't think we can pin on Acer - that seems like it's more a broad situation with Honeycomb and truthfully I haven't seen much of that, so it may also have to do with what apps are on the tablet (autoupdating, etc.).

Acer_A500_1.104.02_COM_GEN1

Best Buy mail-order. Shipped from TN I think.

The List:

1. Backlight comes on randomly

- never noticed

2a. Tablet freezes during long periods of non-use/during sleep

- Nope, not yet!

2b. Tablet turns off during long periods of non-use/sleep

- Do you guys not use yours all day ;-) Hasn't happened to me.

2c. Tablet reboots randomly

- Nope.

2d. Tablet turns off randomly

- Nope.

3. Experiencing obviously weak wifi signals

- Nope, but I use commercial grade AP's. This picks up better than both my galaxy s and my acer laptop. No kidding! One room at work this is the only device that gets a signal. But, none of my AP's have N enabled.

4. GPS won't work without Wifi

- Haven't fully tested.

5. MicroSD not showing up after wake from sleep

- Nope.

6. Cell standby active and draining the battery

- Yes! Is it really though, or does HC attribute some other battery use to that because Android expects a radio?

7. Can't disable wifi?/can't turn off wifi/wifi turns itself on.

- Nope.

*** Add this: Market app crashes once every 10 pages or so.

*** Orientation of compass off / sluggish / wrong?
[Acer Iconia A500] gammaRascal:
Happen RARELY.

None. Though I have had two lockups, I don't attribute them to any of those but blame the apps or HC cpu/memory management. Definitely a HC issues.

Negative. WiFi is strong and stable- tested.

Tested and works fine for me. AGPS (Assisted GPS) needs wi-fi to gain first-fix and triangulate your position. If you are looking for a sat and aren't near or connected to a wi-fi hotspot, (or cell coverage around you is low) it may take a while to connect.

I don't have a MicroSD so I can't answer this.

While yes, it is active, I couldn't say for sure if it's draining my battery by any substantial amount. Another HC thing.

Yes. Background Data / Sync supersedes the Wi-Fi setting/policy which they shouldn't. Most people aren't aware of this and of those, some may not use Background Data/Sync so don't have this happen - however - if you're like me and disable wi-fi manually on a regular basis then it's frustrating seeing it turn on from time to time because some other settings ignore the policy - including the disable wi-fi when screen is off policy. Definitely a HC bug.

Yes the compass is off for me but I use a separate app so I couldn't attribute this to the tablet or to the app. Is it suppose to be connected to GPS? Is it a standalone app using some kind of hardware in the tablet?

Consistent? No.

Crashes? Yes.

From time to time. Failed downloads, Failed installs.
[Acer Iconia A500] lpachuong:
2a. Tablet freezes during long periods of non-use/during sleep

Yes, I have this issue. If the device is in charging and left for the whole night, no problem. If it is discharging and left untouched for about 3-5 hours, need to restart the device.

1. Backlight comes on randomly

-- yes it comes on every now and then by itself.

2a. Tablet freezes during long periods of non-use/during sleep

-- yes this is very annoying

3. Experiencing obviously weak wifi signals

-- slightly weaker then my old iPad and every now and then it says no connectivity

4. GPS won't work without Wifi

-- don't care, won't use, rather use my phone.

6. Cell standby active and draining the battery

-- Yes, I see something like 7% drop in 3-4 hours of non usage.

9. Consistent Market Crashes

-- Yes and sometimes it says downloading but never installs.
[Acer Iconia A500] azraeljarah:
1. Backlight comes on randomly

This happens to me and has been happening since I bought it a week ago.

2a. Tablet freezes during long periods of non-use/during sleep

This problem didn't start happening to me until a couple days ago. Every morning now when I wake up and pick up the tablet the screen is frozen and I have to force a reboot. Definitely the most annoying issue so far.

3. Experiencing obviously weak wifi signals

Since I live in Australia the internet is really terrible anyway but the wifi signal is fine within my own network. No issue with this one.

9. Consistent market crashes

I have been seeing this one more often lately. The market will just close itself immediately after being started without an option to force close. Also, apps that I choose to download either won't download at all or won't install after downloading. This issue is quickly becoming the worst of all.

I love this tablet and i really want these issues to be resolved as soon as possible. Thanks!

1. Backlight comes on randomly

Happens a lot: Sometimes I wake up at night with the screen illuminating my room

2a. Tablet freezes during long periods of non-use/during sleep +

Happened just once in three weeks.

2b. Tablet turns off during long periods of non-use/sleep

NEVER

2c. Tablet reboots randomly

NEVER

3. Experiencing obviously weak wifi signals

NEVER. Sorry about asking this, but do you guys knows how to set up the Wi-fi to use with the A500? Are you trying to use "N" 5ghz? Channels above 10? Because I have NO issue with wifi signal and it seems strange that my hardware is the only one that works perfectly.

4. GPS won't work without Wifi

NO PROBLEM! This is NOT a issue. Turned off the Wifi, selected airplane mode and used a app called "GPS Test". 6 Satelites found in 1 minute. Remember that GoogleMaps and any online GPS program (and those ho uses wi-fi to get a fix) won't work without wifi. Download GPS test and check if it can find the satelites without wifi and 3g. Mine did

5. MicroSD not showing up after wake from sleep

NEVER

6. Cell standby active and draining the battery +

Can't say that I have this problems since battery life seems fine to me. I loose 4% when I let the tablet on standby overnight with wifi on. One night I let it downloading a 300 mb file (over torrent) and in the next morning the batery was still 95%

7. Can't disable wifi?/can't turn off wifi/wifi turns itself on

WHAT? Nope, NEVER had this problem.

8. Compass wrong/"off"

YES, but this is the same issue I have with my Galaxy S and that I had with Xoom (that I returned to get the A500).

1. Backlight comes on randomly

1.1 Happens ALOT

This definately happens to me at least a few times per day.

2a. Tablet freezes during long periods of non-use/during sleep

This happens to me maybe once per week. I think. The tablet itself doesn't freeze per se, but it stops responding to touch input (the clock continues to tick, and once it happened shortly after unlocking the device. Animations that were playing continued to play). Power cycling doesn't seem to resolve it. I usually have to use the reset button a few times to get it to boot responsive again.

2b. Tablet turns off during long periods of non-use/sleep

Never happened (yet)

2c. Tablet reboots randomly

Not yet.

2d. Tablet turns off randomly

Not yet.

3. Experiencing obviously weak wifi signals

Yes! If i go more then a few feet away from my wifi ap, the signal will drop considerably. My iPad does not drop in signal nearly as much as the A500 (in the same exact location).

4. GPS won't work without Wifi

I haven't actually used/tested the GPS yet.

5. MicroSD not showing up after wake from sleep

This has happened a few times

6. Cell standby active and draining the battery

Yes. Cell standby is my #2 battery usage (after the display itself)

7. Can't disable wifi?/can't turn off wifi/wifi turns itself on

Haven't tried

8. Compass wrong/"off"

Haven't tried.

9. Consistent Market Crashes

Not consistent, but the market has crashed a bunch of times on me so far.

Never got problem

8 hours when hard usage, so i don't know if it's a real fact or just an hoax... (but even tho, cell standby should not even appear on a non 3G device)

No problem to turn off wifi. never see it turn on by it self.

No (checked with my phone having another hardware)

9.VERY BIG ISSUE: Randomely erases contents of External MicroSD card (some work fine like 16GB Kingston Class 4) 32GB Kingston Class 4 does has this issue.

When copying files over (in any form) and restarting machine, much contents are gone but some remain. The storage shows the files still being there but its in the LOST Dir Folder in a million pieces.

Edit: I have report this issue to Acer about a week ago and they replied saying they are looking into the matter.

10. Screen not so responsive when surfing the net on certain page such as news with lots of images and flash contents (happens intermittently) seems to occur when CPU is overworking, but CPU should not be overworking since surfing is next to nothing.

Hope you havent sent it in yet.
