What version are you running? IIRC, the 3.2 update was 4.XX and 3.2.1 was 7.XX. Thats firmware version, not android version. If its telling you to update to 4.0, thats acer firmware, sadly. I was like "lol wut" when I got my tablet last month and saw it.

Oddly enough, i understood this message better than any previous message from Acer support and i dont speak Spanish. :p
[Acer Iconia A500] zsa4041:
if it is 386 mb's, it must be something new. Please let us know when u applied it. Thanx in advance.

FALSE ALARM. My brother bought a tablet and it showed the 4.01 update but it was for the firmware his tablet was on 3.0.1 NO ICS for the moment. Sorry guys
[Acer Iconia A500] Sector51:
I don't belive the message from Acer Philipines...why would they get the update first????

On the other side, it could be true. When looking to the Custom Rom's only the camera is not working....i don't think Acer has to work hard to make the drivers!!
[Acer Iconia A500] adambomb_13:
I hate to burst your bubble but here is what acer told me:
[Acer Iconia A500] erica_renee:
As stated many times in this Thread and OTHERS its not about DEVELOPMENT

Acer will hold ics back on the a500 until they push there new devices to the market.It will create a buying frenzy with those that have to have the best thing.And some of those who cant live without ics. Now doing this will create some loyal customers who (ME ME ME ME ME ME ME ME ME) WHO THINK they should take care of the customers already paid them. Will decided to not buy another device. At that point they will release ICS For our device.. My guess is its ready to go.. They are just holding it back until they think its best financially for them to release it..

Just my two pennies again.. and yes i know they are worth NOTHING... SPAM ME IF YA LIKE.. im kinda Bored today...

Acer Iconia Tab A100 Gets Honeycomb Update. Jan 26, 2012

ww.androidauthority.com/acer-iconia-tab-a100-honeycomb-47908/

Many users of the Acer Iconia Tab A100 may now fire up their devices to get the Android 3.2.1 update. Users from France, Italy and Japan have noted the Honeycomb update availability on their tablets.

The on-the-air update is a 244MB download and to check if it’s available for your device, just go to Menu > Settings > About Phone then tap on Check Now at System Update to get your download started.

The minor update may not be some are waiting for, with Ice Cream Sandwich at the top of their list. But the latest build is still a welcome development as Acer seeks to improve the user experience on their tablet.

The A100 is one of many top bets on the Android platform when it comes to tablets, with its NVIDIA Tegra 2 chipset and 1 Ghz dual core processor. It even sports a 5 megapixel shooter at the back and 2MP in front.
[Acer Iconia A500] erica_renee:
We need to know this WHY.

The guys/girls over at the A100 forum might find this information useful... Here its just another wasted post.. Kinda like most of mine... Giggles..

But thanks now if i decide to buy a a100 i will know one thing up front about its updates... :rolleyes::rolleyes::rolleyes::rolleyes::rolleyes:
[Acer Iconia A500] mickeyjuice:
Yes, it's a genius thing to build a reputation as being really slow to support your devices when you can avoid that.
[Acer Iconia A500] erica_renee:
The average consumer is not even aware difference in ICE AND Honeycomb and will buy a new device instead of waiting for a update. We often think the world us has the understanding and knowledge of tech stuff as those in the forums.. That is likely to be untrue. There will be more people buy the new Tablet with the Claim to improved operating system. Its what drives the constant new devices to market so soon..

HAVING To have the next best thing the day it hits the shelves .
[Acer Iconia A500] mickeyjuice:
So which point are you arguing here? You have both sides covered equally - they're not releasing it because they want huge amounts of sales of new tablets to people who are desperate for ICS, and also that hardly anyone knows what ICS is. Which one?
[Acer Iconia A500] nifterific:
You're confused. She said the average person doesnt know what ICS is, and thats true. I can go into a t-mobile store here and ask what ICS phones they have and they wont know what I'm talking about (true story, btw) so the average person wont know either.

Hell, my wife has had most of the same phones as me. She had a cliq with 1.5, 1.6 and 2.1 and a G2 with 2.2 and 2.3, she now owns a Droid 3 with 2.3. Despite running all these versions, she doesnt know what versions her phone has had, just that she got updates. If I say Donut, Cup Cake, Eclair, Froyo and Gingerbread she has NO clue what I'm talking about. If I mention Honeycomb she doesnt know what I'm talking about, but she knows 3.2 is tablets only.

Based on this, she's right. If my wife goes into best buy looking for a tablet she'll get someone to help her, right? She knows I have an a500, and its easy for the guy to say "well this tablet has 4.0 while the a500 has 3.2, its more up to date, faster, blah blah blah". She still doesnt know what honeycomb or ICS are, but she knows that the new tablet has a new version of andoid on it, and thats how the vast majority of users are.
[Acer Iconia A500] mickeyjuice:
No, I just read the entirety of the post I'm replying to.

Agreed. Given that, why would ACER be holding back the update to sell new ICS tablets because, as I quote: "There will be more people buy the new Tablet with the Claim to improved operating system."

So nobody knows what it is, but it'll sell more new tablets despite nobody knowing what it is, apparently.

As I said, trying to have it both ways, which makes no sense.
[Acer Iconia A500] crossix:
We've had 3.2.1 since the end of December on the a100...
[Acer Iconia A500] skatin707:
So acer UK has problems with spelling? Seems legit

Also, I <3 Erica Renee's support response lol.
[Acer Iconia A500] nifterific:
But it does work, and you can have it both ways. Lets say someone out there, lets call them "an overwhelming majority", own a500s but dont know the specifics about android versions. They are looking to get a new tablet. They read reviews on the a510 stating it has a better processor and newer verion of andriod than the a500. They still dont know the difference between HC and ICS, but they DO know that it has a never version that sources say the a500 wont get. That seals the deal for them. Just because they dont know specifics doesnt mean they are stupid enough to run into a store and buy a tablet without knowing if its better than what they have.
[Acer Iconia A500] mickeyjuice:
Why would the "sources say" that the A500 won't get ICS when Acer says they will? You've also added in the "newer processor" argument, which wasn't part of the original thesis.

Adding spurious elements is simply proving that the original (ridiculous and semi-literate) contention made no sense, not proving it did.
[Acer Iconia A500] nifterific:
for every acer rep saying "end of the month", "february" and "by april" there are acer reps saying there is nothing being worked on for the a500. at this point, youre blindly believing that the a500 is getting an official ICS update. And it is part of the argument, the argument is that the average person doesnt know the difference between HC and ICS, but that people can be goaded into a new tablet with the promise of it being beter.
[Acer Iconia A500] romagnus:
A500 is getting ICS. Acer said so as posted somewhere in engaget i believe
[Acer Iconia A500] mickeyjuice:
If you haven't actually read the initial post, why are you trying to argue about it? Deadset unbelievable.
[Acer Iconia A500] strra:
so i haven't seen it mentioned, but have you guys looked at the facebook conversation recently?

seems the acer philippines rep has no idea what he's talking about:

http://www.facebook.com/permalink.php?story_fbid=10150502343287832&id=308832612831

read the whole thread
[Acer Iconia A500] nifterific:
I have read it,and many many many more posts from others who have contacted acer. You can blindly believe all you want, you can contact 4 different reps and get 4 different answers ranging from "end of the month" to "never". They dont have a clue what they are doing and you trust these people to build ICS for this device? There are other threads on here about this where others are screen caping their conversation with acer support and being told we arent getting ICS, with others being told april and you want to believe THIS particular one. Why?
[Acer Iconia A500] erica_renee:
Sorry guys did not mean to confuse you

Taking both sides you can never loose.. JUST TRYING TO SAY

who knows when it will come.. Some will buy a new device instead of waiting. some dont know what ics is.. ​

for me if they would stop arguing in the dev forum and work together we would have it.. PLEASE GUYS PLEASE ..

enough said..

yes as stated above Erica Renee is not very smart and is LESS Experienced then the average user.. ask anyone..

:p:p:p:p:p:p:p
[Acer Iconia A500] skatin707:
Nonsense. You are definitely smarter than the average bear. At least more educated and we'll spoken.

[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Android-novice:
This question about GLONASS-support is relevant indeed, because we really know that S2 has the same processor as Note. But could somebody tell, if some kind of firmware-update (or hack) could be made to activate the support? The location-chip in S2 is obviously different than that in Note...

[TouchPad General] Smith7018:
So, I've been working on getting the new version of CWM that has onscreen controls, a battery meter, and more to work on the TouchPad. So far, I've gotten it to boot, flash, and all that jazz, but the touchscreen still seems to be a WIP. Also, adb seems to be broken atm. Besides that, it seems to be working alright. I kind of want to gauge interest before I go out and fix the bugs/release a build.

Anyways, here are some pictures of the new CWM (and inadvertently me at 5 AM.. no judgements haha).

Notice the on-screen buttons (that don't work, yet...)

Finally, here's the battery meter

If I decide to keep going with this (hell, someone else should, too! I'm sure they could do it better, too heh), I'll start merging in some changes like USB notification and more. So..... any opinions?
[TouchPad General] vvskiies:
larger text to fill the space ? make use of the space :)
[TouchPad General] derek1028:
i am afraid that i will make a mess of the setting by touching the screen, anyway thanks~:D
[TouchPad General] Jotokun:
There's definitely interest. On the Touchpad my recovery of choice is TWRP, but since that's been discontinued and in its current state a little buggy I still use CWM. This would have the best of both worlds.

I'm going to go in the opposite direction of the other suggestion thus far and say shrink the buttons a bit, if possible.
[TouchPad General] mcsephoenix:
Agreed I am certainly interested, much nicer then having to use the volume buttons....
[TouchPad General] Smith7018:
Well, to finish this, I would have to tear apart TWRP's source hoping they have touch input in their code (the GUI code isn't public). Also, I would probably have to spend a few days bug fixing and actually fixing code instead of just commenting out stuff our device doesn't have (/datadata). It seems like it'd be a bit much, but once again, if more than 4 people say they'd want it, I'd do it haha. I'm just a CS college kid in midterms week so time is decently valuable, I guess heh.

EDIT: I felt bad because I feel like I sounded like I devalued the 4 responders; I don't and hope I didn't come off that way! :D
[TouchPad General] Adonis K.:
I wouldnt mind have a taste of cwm touch.

Is this the version of cwm that TWRP team helped with? (after they dropped their recovery project and started helping cwm's development).

I read they were planning to start help cwm with touch but i didnt see the implementation yet.
[TouchPad General] DKMikey:
What do you think about using 4EXT Recovery instead?

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1402820
[TouchPad General] Grizzy3:
I'm definitely down for this.
[TouchPad General] nomadman:
CwM certainly does what it was design to do. I've been using it since I got hold of MyTouch3g and Donut. It hasn't changed. That said, it's time for a transformation. I think I read on another forum that there will be some changes to CwM soon. I don't know if you are part of that crew. Anyway, please move forward with this project.
[TouchPad General] Smith7018:
Well I have midterns until next Monday, so I'll be busy, but if you want, I can release an alpha after testing it to see if basic functionality isn't broken? That means it'll have backup/restore, partition wipe, USB mounting, battery status, and zip installation. Anything else needed for an alpha?

Also, our touch screen drivers appear to be userland-based. To the average person, that means they're not in the kernel so I'll have to look into implementing that driver into CWM's source. Once that works, we should be golden. Also, I really want to add features like screen shut off if not touched for a minute or so. That should help with battery usage in CWM, I believe.

Thanks for the support and if you have anything to add/an idea/feature request/help, I'd love to hear it all! :D
[TouchPad General] staymunch:
+1 4ext is teh shizza :cool:
[TouchPad General] nomadman:
I think the aesthetics and additional functionality can follow. Getting touch to work with whatever is currently in CwM is more important.

I liked TeamWin's recovery, but since it's currently not being developed... oh well...

I have a fairly stable A0.5 and i don't plan on making any changes other than a kernel update or two. I have some time to test and give feed back.
[TouchPad General] Smith7018:
Just a quick note (I'm currently in class and can't talk too much), but 4ext is closed source. Also, does anyone know if TWRP has been abandoned? As in, they'd probably be alright with open sourcing their GUI? Maybe? Bueller?
[TouchPad General] staymunch:
Didn't know 4ext was closed source, too bad. Twrp was abandoned but idk if its open source either... drop em a line :)

You could try talking to DooMLoRD or Napstar, they are working on touch based cwm for a few devices.

I have an image in my gallery that id like to set as my wallpaper. I choose the image and I resize it to include the whole image but when it sets it it only show a cropped section of the image. Has anyone seen this? Or am I missing something?
[Samsung Galaxy Player 4.0, 5.0] Se7enex:
I believe it does that to allow scrolling. If you use GO Launcher it allows you to turn scrolling wallpaper off in the settings. I'm not really sure if default settings allow the option. ;)
[Samsung Galaxy Player 4.0, 5.0] tcat007:
Or you can use Multi-picture Live WP and size it you screen size and put a different image on each screen.

Typical WP crops to more "squarish" so vertical pixels remain constant and horizontal is wide enough to scroll from 1st to last screen.
[Samsung Galaxy Player 4.0, 5.0] Antarctica32:
I like to have it pan across the image, it gives a good tactile feedback that other OSs don't have. I also really like the default images, especially the rays of different colors. Leave it to samsung to make such good screens and find images to make the screens look better.
[Samsung Galaxy Player 4.0, 5.0] pcdebb:
Ive used the multi wp app but didn't want to use it here. I just figured the wallpaper would just "fit" the screen

You can use another Launcher and stop it from scrolling, then you can set the wallpaper to whatever image you want.
[Motorola Droid RAZR] anshkhanna:
Hi All,

I have been using my Motorola Razr for a while now. I have noticed that the behaviour of the lighting of the capacitative buttons (home, menu, search, back) is arbitrary.

They are supposed to light up when I am in dim light and shut off when there is enough ambient light. On the contrary, they dont seem to light up when the light is not there. I have also tried putting my thumb on the light sensor and they still dont light up. Similarly, they light up on any odd occassion when light is quite fine.

Does anyone have a fix for this???

Capacitive buttons when on bedside dock

The lights on the capacitive buttons of my Razr no longer turn off when on the bedside dock. I briefly installed Razr Dock and noticed the lights staying on after that. Has anyone experienced this?
