Acer A510

Just got the A510. And either its me or the tablet is bad. I can't seem to charge it. I plug the charger into the wall outlet and the cable into the micro usb port on the tablet and nothing happens. I tried it with the tablet on and off. Am I missing something here??

Exactly

Is it just me or do you have to hold the power button until it vibrates? If I release it to soon it gets stuck on the Acer logo

Have to wait at least a month to see these in new Zealand, very frustrating. Nothing wrong with my a500, think I'm just addicted to upgrading

I did the same thing when I got mine Tuesday lol I finally figured out you have to push it in until it "clicks". By the way, is anybody working on rooting this bad boy? I don't see any talk about it in here or over at Acer Tablet Forums.

for that , we would need a dedicated A510 section..

little feedback:
lost some sleeping hours, but had great time playing with my new toy
no freeze or reboot as previous unit (defective). this one works smoothly
it don't see so many difference between the A510 and the A501 under custom ICS roms (was using Thor's one). both are silky working
but in some hardware demanding games, i see the difference. eg . cogs, riptide, ..
i still need to test shadowgun too.
i've watched some videos, and they are correctly displayed but it's not so efficient as i hoped. surely related to software, because switching to another soft change a lot de frame rate. i've tested so far bs player, mx player, vplayer
as always for me, mx player is my choice

for now, i'm happy

i'll do the comand above mentioned (in Terminal i suppose ?)

I like it too, but the Acer Tablets are getting a LOT more attention at that site than on XDA. There are some awesome developers there, they've even rooted and created custom ROMs for the A200, for example. XDA seems to not want to support Acer Tablets, beyond the A100 and A500 that is.

we all like xda but the fact that we still have to post under A500 is making it difficult. I don't know how many votes they need to open a A510 forum.
I would like to get my device rooted as soon as possible no matter how thats why I follow any thread in any forum.
Thanks californiarailroader

Come on over and join us at http://www.acertabletforums.com, we'd love to have you! I don't know why XDA isn't putting up more forums for us Acer users, I mean they have some forums for some VERY old and obscure devices, you'd think they could shrink or drop those and free up some space for us, they did for the A100 and A500, now we need them to do it for the A200, A510 and upcoming A700.

yep, will give a try on this board..

Thanx for the invitation. I'll consider joining once I get my A510. I liked very much the A200 handling it as demo and it was great to read there you found the A510 better on many aspects.
While there are few defective units we can't see until now any serious recurrent issues like for the Prime.

Just so everyone knows, this root kit also works on the new Iconia A510.
I just got my Acer Iconia A510 from Amazon this morning and decided to install the USB drivers and tried this rooting kit and low and behold I got full root access.

Thanks ZeroNull!!!!

Dumb question but does this Acer A510 have full access to gameloft games? I'm asking cos my Transformer doesnt.. I have to resort to looking for modded apk's online
