[Q] Got my first Tablet today! Acer A100, ICS? Region Firmware? General Info?

Hi All,
I got my first tablet today, the Acer Iconia A100. I'm no stranger to Android, and figured this would be a good stop-gap tablet until something with middlefield comes out... That being said, I have a few questions:
1) I was reading there is an ETA of "January" for an ICS upgrade, I'm guessing since this is probably one of their lower end models it might not be a top priority for them, but is there a place for me to track their status?
2) I'm located in Canada but it says that my version is EMEA_GB. Is there a way for me to change my version to the Canadian one?
3) Is there anything special I should know about using this device? I am currently pretty versed with a Moto XT860 (Droid 3 CAN version)
Thanks all!

As far as the ICS update, there hasnt been any recent news or tracking. We have been bugging them, and they give us the same gig, keep automatic update checked in settings, and they said its coming, but no date. I hope before the end of January myself.
You can check the updates that have been released, but I think they are the same as far as the regions go.
Its just a standard tablet that has a locked bootloader. We havnt been able to break it yet, and I have yet to root my device. Others have been able to, but something is preventing me from getting it done. It cant do USB hosting yet, but I expect it to be able to host when ICS comes around sometime.

Where are you seeing that version information?
(BTW, EMEA stands for ''Europe, Middle East and Africa'')
If it's under Build, mine says: ''Acer_A100_2.007.04_COM_GEN1''
If it's under Flex Version, mine says: ''04_COM_GEN1''
I doubt if your ''EMEA_GB'' will affect your updates or your Market access, but you never know...

Probably already know this, but the battery goes out kind quickly, if you turn off wifi(I use a wifi toggle widget since I dont like going into the settings to turn it off), you can save a ton of battery power.

An even easier way to do this is to use the Airplane Mode toggle that is already built in to the notification bar area that pops up. I find it easier than backing out of an app that I am in to turn off WiFi.

How long are people seeing their batteries lasting. I applied the custom build.prop in development and did some tweaks of my own and I can squeeze out a day and a half ...

About the same here with stock build.prop. More than adequate for my needs.

I am using it for a lot of hours at a time and it usually lasts me through the day. Sometimes if I'm on it too much I'll have to charge in the evening though.

Yeah... I should clarify I use it a lot too... this would be moderate to heavy usage. I'm using it all the time with customers. So in my opinion that's good... but yeah ie heard some reports of bad battery on this tab but I've seen none of it.

At&T i467 Question

Im rather new to the note 8 forums but I was curious if there are any plans anybody has heard of about this device getting 4.2.2. I cant seem to find a straight answer anywhere.

There is a UK version of 4.2.2 for the 5120, that works great. I screwed up and tried to put a 5110 ROM on, then had to scramble to find this one. Took me 4-5 days, but I got it finally.

This won't work. Your device is different than ours plus we don't have a recognized/confirmed way to unlock the bootloader.

Jeez, I'm not to sure this device is all that great..I'm using a Note 3 phone and this thing is a piece of crap compared to it lol. The screen not being responsive to touches sometimes are really getting annoying. Also I'm thinking AT&T may never update this thing. Seems like they always care about the initial release then it's history.

Lots of threads on this. Yes, the screen is unresponsive. It's a true bummer. I have hope that we'll see 4.2.2, hopefully in the next month or two. When it's released, I hope it has the screen responsiveness fixes and S-Pen offset fixes in the latest wifi version OTAs. I agree with you, I'm losing some patience with this device. As a whole, I love it. I need the pen, like the screen, like that I can use PAYG data, good specs, and the form factor is perfect. Don't like that it's not updated, the screen freezes, no unlocked bootloader, no custom ROMs, and not-so-great battery life.

6.0 and 6.0.1 coming in March / April

First semi reliable info! Let the countdown begin!

This is when the international versions will begin to receive the update. Look for AT&T (and the other carriers) to hold that update at least 3 to 6 months extra to add their bloat.

Exactly. So we can seriously expect a release date sometime this summer to late summer. That is, IF ATT decides to release the update at all.

Me too!

I'm happy with mine, too. I got so obsessed with flashing Roms on my first 3 galaxies that I finally got burnt out on it. Sure, root would be nice, but I'm fine with the device as is. But I also don't have some of the issues I see other have. I've got no camera problems and I regularly get about 6 hours of screen on time. So, I'm good.

That's quite a broad question but I'll try to give you details. I've disabled anything I don't use or that I know cause battery drain. There are several apps in the app manager that aren't "useable" apps, and they aren't in the app drawer, but cause significant battery drain - disabled without negative results. I switch between touchwiz and Nova Prime launchers (and have noticed no difference in battery drain). I keep things like wifi and Bluetooth disabled if I'm not using them. Auto brightness turned off. I keep location on but only on power saving mode unless I'm traveling out if town.
That's generally it, I guess...

It's a long list. It was easier to just screenshot them. In the bottom two you can see my battery stats. I unplugged this morning around 7:15 AM and I'm down to about 47% after 8 hours and 3.5 hours screen-on time.
Today, I've checked email several times, had several phone calls, plus I've streamed youtube to a chromecast for classes that I teach, and even played a couple games during lunch. I do have lots of other apps I use, too; about 4-5 pages worth in my app drawer. Working well for me.

Hi,
Will it be possible to update my device in another country that there is no AT&T services here. Last time in forum I saw some guys telling to use Kies to update and they said there are some pages but I couldn't find them either.
Can you help me to locate one of these pages, If exists; to be able to update my device automatically ? Everytime I update my device in my country I had to backup everything and put back again which is reallly painfull!

Geez, and I thought Verizon had a lot of bloat!

I jumped ship for a Nexus, but sprint is updating its note 4 to 6.0, so the info was accurate.

Kies is one way, but it sometimes takes Kies a while to get the carrier-branded firmwares. (International firmware is almost instant on the other hand).
The fastest 2 ways to get the update would be to
1) use someone's activated ATT sim in your phone. Pop it in, boot up the phone, wait a few minutes for the sim to set itself up with your phone, then check for updates. Then download, install, and then put your original sim back in.
2) Use an Odin file. The only issue with this is that you most likely will have to start from scratch with your apps and settings. Be sure to back everything up first.
You'll also have to wait for the Odin files to be released by someone, but it'll be 100x sooner than Kies.
Edit: The latest 5.1.1 Odin files are in the first post here (you'll need all 4 files in the Dropbox link):

downgrading to kitkat

hi guys. I wanted to downgrade back to kitkat because of the constant rebooting problem and I stumbled upon this warning message. is this true? please peruse the attachment.

You can downgrade back. Ive done it before. But why downgrade when MM is coming? Have you tried disconnecting and reconnecting battery? Or even resoldiering it?

Downgrading to KitKat works just fine. I've done it many times. I wouldn't worry too much about MM coming out soon. I mean, we've only had ONE article saying it's coming soon, but it still technically isn't an official source. A reliable one, but not official. KitKat is easier to deal with than Lollipop though in regards to Xposed and viper4android. The UI looks, and IS, better for the OLED display.

thank you friends. what was the deal with that screenshot of that warning anyway? is it outdated info?

I think it's more of a warning that something could go wrong if you don't know what you're doing. That's the first I've seen any kind of message like that though.

I'm on Lollipop right now waiting for Marshmallow. If MM isn't released by the end of August, I'll be going back to KitKat. KitKat is very stable in all ways! For me, viper4android works without issue, Xposed doesn't require you to be deodexed, and it just looks better.

Only when my battery drops below 50% and it becomes more and more frequent the lower it gets. It becomes unbearable around 30%. Flickers with a green light, random reboots, and false power offs. The false power offs are when the screen goes black but the device is still on and reacts to volume buttons and home button. Pushing the power button would seem to do nothing but it's actually locking the device but you wouldn't know that because the device seems to be off. Pushing the power button again unlocks the device and the screen comes back on but will turn off again randomly within a few minutes.
I'm on my second Tab S right now. The display on my first got a hairline fracture in the digitizer so the screen had this temporary, at first, green/yellow tint which could be temporarily "fixed" by holding the corners and bending inward. Not the best fix as you can imagine. Everything else on it worked just fine but it was going to cost the same price as a new one just to fix the screen so I gave it to a friend and bought myself a new one. I had for just over a year.

yes same symptoms! i can't use a tablet which goes crazy when below 50%. I tried an AOSP rom once which limited the CPU to about 400mhz and the flickering and shutdowns are minimized. but. what can you do with such a slowpokey device these days haha. when I was still on stock lollipop, enabling power saving mode helped a bit as well.
people keep saying it is a battery connector issue or something but I've replaced the battery and it still does the same thing. doesn't seem to happen on kitkat so far. so I hope the rumored marshmallow update will get that issue fixed. and I'm surprised samsung didn't develop a patch for this widely reported shutting down issue.
does your second tab S work like a charm on lollipop though? perhaps it's a different batch with a different motherboard or something.

I never believed it to be the battery connector. I'll admit I'm not electrical engineer or anything like that, but I've been playing around with devices since I was 5 by taking them apart and a battery connector just doesn't make sense to me. I think it's a OS and device (a certain batch or something) issue. None of these issues were on KitKat. My first Tab S had NONE of these issues whatsoever! Only this current Tab has shown these issues. It "works like a charm"....as long as I stay above 50%.

FYI, I don't have root access.

most likely not the same as you will likely never be able to charge to 100%, the only way would be to roll back the firmware to a previous version then block updates if you plan on keeping the phone.

The only way is to change kernel.

Darn recall screen is very annoying. Every time when charging it pops up.

I just noticed, with wireless charging, I'm getting a message saying "irregular charging detected" and it pretty much pauses wireless charging as a result. Regular charging seems to be normal still, with no messages other than the lightning bolt in the battery... weird. No recall messages though (other than a text message from AT&T earlier this morning).
I'm wondering if I should bring it back tonight, or if I can hold out a few more days... ugh, the uncertainty :/ I kind of want to keep it a few more days, I'm hoping for another Samsung promotion, so I can pickup the VR.

backup your data, hard reset and turn off wifi and take out sim card, your rom should go back to normal and then use firewall and package disabler apps.
try not fo fly with the note, although very rare chance of it exploding and vaporising stuff.

I'd like to bring this thread back to life to see if anybody has gotten this recall notice to go away by disabling a package with Package Disabler Pro??
I have two Note 7s...the original I bought on launch day (that I was supposed to ship back) and the replacement Note 7. My replacement Note 7 is perfect...and I have package disabler pro on both to block the forced push updates to cripple my phones. BUT, the original Note 7 has the recall safety notice every time I plug it in, just like the OP. I would like to disable that pop-up. I have tried to disable a few packages, but to no avail.
Anyone?

That first update you are talking about is the "green battery" update. If you had the replacement device, that update turns your battery indicator green. If you had the original device (like you do), it adds the warning that I am talking about in my post above and that you are talking about here. That first update wasn't supposed to max your battery at 60%.

Same here. Is there any way of getting rid of that popup?
I'm with Videotron and I flashed AP_N930W8VLU2API3_CL8706648_QB10937043_REV00_user_low_ship_MULTI_CERT_meta.tar after I got the forced 60% update.
I tried flashing AP_N930W8VLU1APH1_CL8706648_QB10528368_REV00_user_low_ship_MULTI_CERT_meta.tar but it fails, is this normal?

BTW FOLKS next update knocks us off the networks. They are killing the phone. On phone with escalations depts for sprint and samsung all night 4+ hours and they are basically saying to buy an s7 instead of the note 7 and then buy the new phone if/when it comes out.
