[Acer Iconia A500] domnoob:
OK guys be gentle here I'm a total noob. I rooted my iconia with the sole purpose of changing the wpa supplicant to tether. It took about four tries and I finally go it to work. Now I got this message about this update and I havent updated because I'm afraid it will screw up my tethering set up. Do you know if I have to unroot to to the update or should I just update without unrooting. Would I have to redo the whole wpa supplicant thing after I update?? Any advice is greatly appreciate it.
[Acer Iconia A500] WereCatf:
You need to put back the original wpa_supplicant before updating as in most cases the update fails otherwise, and then replace it again after update. AFAIK you don't have to unroot the tablet first, though.
[Acer Iconia A500] FloatingFatMan:
This update has a wifi for this wifi issue built in.
[Acer Iconia A500] domnoob:
ok thanks to both of you. Now do u mean that the updated wifi supports ad hoc connections or do u mean it already comes with a new wpa supplicant stock copy??
[Acer Iconia A500] FloatingFatMan:
Ah, no... The fix I was referring to is for being unble to get an IP address with DHCP.

For adhoc connections, My tablet has ALWAYS worked with those; or rather, it has with the ones my multiple Acer android phones create in hotspot mode.
[Acer Iconia A500] WereCatf:
Your Android phones do hotspot in infrastructure mode then. A500 does not support non-infrastructure hotspots, that's why it works for you. "True ad-hoc" requires replacing the wpa_supplicant for those hotspots to work. I for example have a phone that can't do infrastructure hotspot and thus I'm required to replace wpa_supplicant for A500 to even see it.
[Acer Iconia A500] w0urds:
Okay, I was updated to 3.1 two weeks ago and I see the thread for OTA 4.010.38. I was just updated to 4.010.10 are we just behind on the build updates and what was it for. From Texas
[Acer Iconia A500] Johnny0906:
No not at all, its a regional thing you have the latest update I believe.

Europe - 38

Asia - 40

US/NA - 10/11?

cheers!
[Acer Iconia A500] contractor:
Same here.
[Acer Iconia A500] pete041:
I have an US version, currently in New Zealand, and received the update to 3.1 on July 15 and one day later the OTA update from 4.010.30 to 4.010.38
[Acer Iconia A500] FloatingFatMan:
You guys got enough space on your cards AND internal storage? Not saying internal is used, but if you're low on space, could be a contributory factor during the unzip process.
[Acer Iconia A500] sousmangoosta:
I got 25 internal storage space, and in the fdupdater source code, they download the update, copy and unzip it in cache, i don't understand why a full reset solves the problem. Do the full reset make a cache partition larger than 1G, or, do it change the fdupdater to stock elsewhere ?
[Acer Iconia A500] vari9:
My phone does hotspot in ad-hoc mode....still my iconia can read it....

Checked it twice....it is ad-hoc...and I haven't changed the stock wpa_supplicant....
[Acer Iconia A500] FloatingFatMan:
I'm wondering actually... How do you tell what mode your device is using?
[Acer Iconia A500] rasmith3530:
I keep reading all the reports of problems trying to do the OTA update to 4.010.38. I too ran into the problem. I had downloaded the update, and when I received the message about being plugged into an AC outlet (mains), I realized that I was without my power supply and so cancellled. Once at home and connected to a power outlet, I ran the install, but received the same "failed" error as others. I then power-cycled the phone and went into Settings > About tablet >System update, and selected Check now when prompted. I got the message that an update was available, it downloaded once again, and then installed normally, leaving me at Build: Acer_A500_4.010.38_COM_GEN1.

Remember, 1st rule of computing, "If at first, you don't succeed, REBOOT!"
[Acer Iconia A500] vari9:
Connect your pc to the tethered network....every pc shows what type of connection is available....in windows7 if you will see a *3 monitor like icon* before your connection name then it is ad-hoc...
[Acer Iconia A500] vari9:
I have a nokia mobile which doesn't support ad-hoc network....and it doesn't read my android phone's tethered network....so this is definately confirms that this tab can read ad-hoc natively....also created an ad-hoc network from my laptop which it connects to....
[Acer Iconia A500] FloatingFatMan:
Not terribly practical for me to do. Is there a way to tell from Android?
[Acer Iconia A500] vari9:
How many android phones you have??...if u have two android phones...download a wifi manager and check it....
[Acer Iconia A500] ibeqa:
I just received 3.1 upgrade after purchasing my A500 on 21st of July. What's strange on my tablet, before update it was 3.01 EMEA_GEN3 and now after upgrading to 3.1 it says COM_GEN1!!!

Maybe this is usual thing but this is my first android device, I'm more of a WM guy. As I mentioned WM, I have one question: is it possible to tether (internet sharing) my HTC HD (WM) on A500.

cheers

[Wildfire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rahuliyer95:
Any way to increase my battery life... My Drains out very fast... Please Help
[Wildfire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] brilldoctor:
Disable gps/brightness/bluetooth/3g/anything else and try wiping battery stats
[Wildfire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Trademark225:
This.

You could also try flashing an OC kernel which will allow you to underclock the processor when the screen is off (i.e. somewhere around 200 or 300 MHz as opposed to default 480 MHz) and keep the speed at the default 526 MHz when the screen is active. SetCPU can help you with this (or flash a kernel+ROM supporting the smartass governer which will do this without you having to set any profiles)

Definately refrain from messenger apps. Some of them are really heavy on the Wildfire's battery, take Mercury MSN for example. It can take your battery from 100 to 0 in an hour or 5.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dr0zenem:
I was wondering how to enable the 3g on my captivate. Im using Continuum v6.1, when I load my web browser it says 3g then turns off n says H. Is this a normal issue or should I flash back to a different rom. Sorry im fairly new to this and I didn't find anything related to my issue in the search
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] studacris:
H stands for hspa. It is a faster form of 3g, it is capable of speeds twice as fast as normal 3g.

What I will miss...

- 4G speeds

- Snappier processor

- More vibrant screen

What I won't miss...

- Horrible battery life

- Long GPS lock time

- Random reboots (even with the newest update)

- Very low speaker volume

- Constant issue of 4G dropping in and out

- Shoddy build quality

I already have it up on Craigslist for $350 and someone is meeting me tonight. I might jump to the DInc2 but I am thinking of just waiting to see what happens with the SGS2. For now, the Droid X is still a great device.
[Thunderbolt General] bthomp21:
not that you should HAVE to but root would solve most of your problems and youd probably be happy. but to each his own.
[Thunderbolt General] engagedtosmile:
Yeah, horrible battery life...

[Thunderbolt General] cstrife999:
I'd have to say you have a bad unit. Speaker volume, gps and battery life are pretty good on my end... And build quality? I'd say it's great... Droid X is nice, but I wouldn't go back.
[Thunderbolt General] nrfitchett4:
and which extended battery is that?

to the OP, so basically, you are going back to a phone with similar specs and no 4g??? To each their own.
[Thunderbolt General] mohkg:
what i never ever had any reboots and this phone is so ****in loud i have to lower the volume

sent from my pony. htc>motorola>****sung
[Thunderbolt General] dbisch:
I rooted it the day I bought it. I've had it since February. I tried Das BAMF and CM7 with multiple radios but nothing solved the issues I've been having with it. I don't think it's a bad device at all. Maybe I got a lemon, I dunno. It just seems that the phone should have been in development a little longer to work out the kinks.

If you guys are happy with it then more power to you. The Droid X does everything I need, albeit a little slower. :p
[Thunderbolt General] davidkim99b:
Crazy .
[Thunderbolt General] distortedloop:
You're crazy. ;-)

Yeah battery sucks. Buy a spare or the extended.

4G LTE rocks. Nothing compares... IRS like being on WiFi everywhere you go.
[Thunderbolt General] dbisch:
;)

I don't mind not having 4G. The only time it comes in handy for me is when browsing the internet or watching YouTube videos. I don't mind waiting a few extra minutes to download an app and whatnot.
[Thunderbolt General] Mustang302LX:
i find the bad build quality remark entertaining. The TBolt build quality is quite good actually compared to the Droid X. The actual keys on the droid x seem cheap and it's so plastic feeling. But that's my opinion and to each his own.

Not really sure what you were expecting with this thread? For us to cry/be upset and try to save you? Or for us to realize how correct you are and jump ship as well...REVOLT?!?!
[Thunderbolt General] dbisch:
I was waiting for someone to respond with that. ;)

I do have the extended battery. It's nice having the extra juice but the added weight and bulk is ridiculous, IMO.
[Thunderbolt General] dbisch:
The TB's build quality is not horrible and is leagues better than the majority of HTC devices but it still doesn't compare to the Droid X. I'll admit that I will miss the capacative buttons. I don't care for the plastic buttons on the Droid X either. Despite what people say, the Droid X's glass is better than the TB's. The touch screen is also much more sensative.

I didn't expect anything from making this thread. I just thought I'd share my opinion on the device and why I'm selling it.
[Thunderbolt General] lrs421:
Technology usually moves forward, the droidx is a step back. Not trying to be negative but you should look at a new model like the inc2.
[Thunderbolt General] dbisch:
Yup, I have my eyes on the DInc2. The dev support is crazy for that thing.
[Thunderbolt General] lrs421:
Yeah, Attn1 has one, that phone is in good hands.
[Thunderbolt General] bond32:
You should look into the Charge... Spending money on anything other than a 4G device is dumb in my opinion.... But thats just me.
[Thunderbolt General] PhillyCheez:
I'll never go back to 3G... I'm spoiled.
[Thunderbolt General] Old MuckenMire:
Yeah I can get that much too if I never touch my phone like you. Look how high your cell standby and phone idle are. Mine are never more than 2% because I actually use my Thunderbolt...and your screen is 40%...almost never on! Try using your phone and then get back to us about battery life.
[Thunderbolt General] eraursls1984:
No way does the thunderbolts build quality come close to the X. Even though it weighs twice as much it feels cheap and like plastic (mainly because a large part of its surface area is plastic) the X is very light, yet it feels like a tank. The X never creaked like this phone, the finish was much better and durable. I do have to agree that I prefer the captive buttons over Tue tactile buttons but they didn't feel cheap.
[Thunderbolt General] Forgetfull:
You crazy.

My battery life stats from yesterday using stock battery:

Time unplugged- 23 hours 35 minutes.

Display on - 4 hours 43 minutes

Display on consisted of 90% internet surfing. Email syncs every hours. Weather every 2 or 3.
[Thunderbolt General] eraursls1984:
Same here, my cell stand by is normally 1%, never use 4g, screen is normally around 70% when I keep it at 40% and upwards of 85% when its at 100% (which is often because this screen is so dim) I get 4 hours of continual use and around 12-14 hours with light to moderate use on BAMF stripped which gives me double what stock and other roms give me.
[Thunderbolt General] dbisch:
The only reason I would buy the Charge is for the screen. The build quality on Samsung devices is pure ****. It's gonna be either the DInc2 or just wait to see what comes down the line.
[Thunderbolt General] Mustang302LX:
I disagree with you but we can agree to disagree.
[Thunderbolt General] BoulderGeek:
I have a friend with the Droid X.

No way would I take her phone over the Thunderbolt.

The only one of the OP's complaints that i could agree with is the battery life. After rooting, flashing and tuning, i get ~16 hours of use and standby. And I consider that weak.

Other than that, my TBolt has never rebooted, is screamingly fast on LTE, and very nice once debloated and with DasBAMF and themes.

I've had Samsung, HTC, LG, Nokia and Apple phones. For this purchase, I went in with my eyes open, and I wanted an HTC over the other manufacturers. Want to really hate your phone? Get a Captivate on AT&T.
[Thunderbolt General] kpfury:
I dont think the ext battery adds that much size, but it does add noticeable weight. The +20hrs I'm getting with VERY heavy use (4G, GPS, rooted, DasBAMF Stripped 1.8) more than makes up for the marginal difference in mass though :)

As for the build quality, I have no complaints thus far. The backlighting on the home/back/menu buttons is a bit uneven, but nothing to cry about.
[Thunderbolt General] muerteman:
Not to add a wrench to this thread, but on page one the OP claims to have had his TBolt since Febuary. Seems odd to me.

[Thunderbolt General] eraursls1984:
Probably because he already has an X or can get one cheap without wasting his upgrade or more money on a device to hold him over until something comes along that he has to have
[Thunderbolt General] engagedtosmile:
No extended battery. I get similar results on CM7. I unplug around 7:30AM and by the time I go to bed and plug it in around midnight, I am only down to 40%. Not hard to achieve. I'm not even running anything like JuiceDefender or SetCPU profiles. I am sure I could squeeze out a few more hours if I needed to.
[Thunderbolt General] sublimaze:
I routinely get 18-20 hrs (oc'd+uv'd, 4G always on), which is acceptable to me. I've never had a problem with GPS, but I realize that is device-dependent and a crapshoot. I've never had random reboots either, but apparently that is device-dependent also. My speakerphone could be louder & clearer, but the earpiece volume is plenty loud. In fact, I usually have it at 60-70% of maximum. My 4G doesn't drop out unless I'm in a fringe area. I agree the overall build quality could be better, but I didn't buy the Tbolt for its build quality.

I could never go back to a 3G-only phone. Even if I could, I'd get something newer than a DX. I usually swap phones every 9-10 months, so anything over a year old is a dinosaur, imho. Anyway, good luck with the sale, I'm sure you won't have a problem finding a buyer.
[Thunderbolt General] yareally:
we have enough of these "im returning my tb" threads. would someone please report it to be closed. these threads are always pointless and sources of flaming.
[Thunderbolt General] orkillakilla:
If you like the DX over the Tbolt, more power to you. However the poor battery life could be the ROMs you are using. In my personal opinion, the best battery life comes from a stock ROM.

I've tried CM7 and love the hell out of it, but the battery life is too poor for me to use. Even on custom froyo ROMs the battey life isn't that good.

I've used Plain Jane and get great life on that. Currently using the stock OTA rooted ROM and have awesome battery life. (4G is always off until it gets turned on in my area this month)

I'm not saying the devs here are doing something wrong. They are awesome. I'm just stating my personal opinion.

[Thunderbolt General] lolipear:
Speaking of build quality, I'm coming from an OG Droid and I have to say I am a little disappointed with the Thunderbolt's build quality. The Droid just felt a lot more solid, like a real flagship device. However, I can't get enough of this 4G (when it works)!
[Thunderbolt General] Turb0wned:
Im not a huge fan of my thunderbolt but droid x? Come on just wait till Aug and get the bionic if your a moto fan. I am still waiting to see if they release the SGS2.
[Thunderbolt General] jappetta99:
Running Das Bamf, I just turn off 4G unless I want to use it in the DBToolbox. Running on 3G and playing Scrabble all morning, texting, couple YouTube videos, and some Google+ browsing and posting only took me down to 80%.
[Thunderbolt General] iLLusive_:
To the OP I wish you the best in finding a working device but as you know nothing is perfect and everything comes down to what device works best for YOU. So with that being said unless you need different phone this second I would agree with what is mentioned into at least considering upcoming Bionic if you a moto fanboi or if you enjoy HTC Dinc2 is nice and of course you got D2 and now D3.

Honestly though if the update fixed GPS / Reboots for 98 percent of the community that point most people on these forums are going to say the issues you are STILL having if valid and true are just as much a user issue for being to lazy to get a replacement device and chalk it up to the update didn't update properly. Just because you updates doesn't mean you could be one in five thousand that software still having issue. So instead of complaining to the choir...the same people who has waited fix for same issueas you and finally got it. Go and replace your device and see what we are all seeing outside you and a few others. You are now the minority because tons of people are stating no more reboots.....better battery life.....nearly instant GPS lock.

Anyways as I opened with GL in finding the phone that makes you happy in the end that is all that matters. So if you aren't in a 4G market I can totally get chosing new device. If you like other features of different brand I can see how issues would make it easy to jump back on the old bandwagon. In the end this is one of HTC best build quality phones and I have used a ton. Yes it was disappointed it took 2 months to fix issues and still not have GB, but in the end my phone is perfect outside the wait for GB now.

Keep in mind you are speaking to a customer who has went through nearly 10 devices during reboots and other issues of being locked in 1x until battery pull was done...non working power buttons..displays not on the screen. EVERY phone has issues and we all know that QA when mass producing 1 phone is amazing, but when you make 50 you have some bad units. In my experience in talking with HTC who offered me any phone as replacement to my Thunderbolt when I was having issues they stand behind making sure I as a customer was happy at any expense to themself. That speaks louder then words but sometimes patience is a great virtue to have and again getting replacement devices falls on your end...or you can just complain and move on.

Oh and I always get those nay sayers who are like you never had that many issues....Yep I never did.
[Thunderbolt General] sithdroid2187:
I still love the constant battery complaints. It is a small computer yet people thing that it should have the same battery life as a regular phone. Damn, my laptop barely gets 2 hours on a battery. This phone blows my laptop out of the water and I get 15+ hours on the battery.

What it comes down to is people need to realize it is a mini computer, it's going to eat through battery.. Especially when you use it...
[Thunderbolt General] jbh00jh:
It's not a big deal for me to charge my phone overnight, takes 2 seconds to plug it in. I carry an extra battery in my brief case for emergencys, ten seconds to change batteries. Big deal !

And all that good 4G speed. Wouldn't trade that for any 3G device.

[Thunderbolt General] crazed_z06:
Umm ok..

We know what the phone is. The phone's battery sucks when compared to other "mini-computers". Go over to Droid forums are you will notice the Thunderbolt is the only phone with a subforum devoted to it's atrocious battery life. That should tell you something right there.

Everyone tries rationalize the crappy battery, but it is what it is. It's woefully undersized for a phone like this. 1400mah is not enough. I just got a POS feature phone from work and that came with a 1420mah battery for Pete's Sake. I dont know wtf HTC was thinking by going with such a low capacity battery in such a power-hungry device.
