Default [Q] system update

Hello xda people! I just joined the forums after reading about the new system update for a while. I just wanted to know if in order for me to get the new update to 3.2.1 i need to change my GEN since i have GEN2. Or if i could just do the update manually from you guys, or if i should wait for it? Ive seen now the us is getting it, but i havent had any update at all.

I see, well i downloaded one of the GEN1. I would like to know what's the process of downgrading, I'm new to all of this and don't know what to do to be honest (Even though I always catch up really fast lol). I want to downgrade so I can get the update. Thank you.

You don't need to do anything of the sort, there's a flash able GEN2 3.2.1 .zip for us GEN2 guys, you just need to download it, decrypt it using the Acer decrypt tool, put the decrypted file in the root of the SD card, turn off the device and hold volume up and power until Mr. Android with Gears shows up and automatically updates it.

Thanks, littleemp, I think I found it, though it says GEN1, the person said it works for both GEN1 and GEN2.

I have a little problem with the download, I've downloaded that .zip you gave me twice already and it says the file is either unknown format or damaged. Any idea of what's happening?

Per post #4, you have to decrypt it with the decrypter tool in one of the other threads and then drop it onto the main sdcard folder. And then reboot as explained above.
