[Q] What a joke Anybody eles still not got the ICS update in UK

---

Anybody eles still not got the ICS update in UK getting to be a bit of a joke this now

why is it a joke, the update will come. I'm just wondering if people who buy android do not release that the updates roll out in batches and can take time before they get it.

Yea, they can't feasiabally roll out the update to everyone at the same time, it'd overload their update servers.

You'll get it, probabally within a week, just be patient.

Still no update for me in UK, been trying for about 2 weeks, lost the poor signal problem, and back to uptodate message, must admit it would be nice if Acer was forthcoming with a bit of information.

The rollout started on the 27th april 24th for others no support what so ever from acer in the uk no infomation has to why some users in the uk have not got it thats why its a JOKE and yes i do no it is in order it goes by the devices serial number and i started this thread to get replys from people in the uk who havent got the update so i would no if anybody eles was still waiting not from people to tell me to be patient and that i do not no how acer roll's out there updates thankyou very much

I'm in the UK, on stock 3.2,never rooted and never flashed custom ROMs and still haven't received the ICS even after installing the Enhancement app. Sent Acer UK an email and one of the solutions suggested by the rep was to reset the device to factory settings which I refused to go ahead with. It took me a long time to get the home screens the way I wanted them and apps installed. So,for someone to suggest factory reset is out of the question. I'd rather stay on Honeycomb till Windows 8 devices starts showing up,meaning no more android tablets for me. This is my 2nd Tablet and I've been absolutely disappointed.

So you bitch about not getting the upgrade but refuse to do what was suggested by the manufacturer to facilitate the upgrade? And it's Acer's fault?

If you want ICS that badly then dl one of the many stock ICS roms and do it manually. No need to root either.

In all fairness we shouldn't have to factory reset are device and reinstall all the apps and get are home screens back how we had them just to receive a update from Acer in most cases anyway it does not work it didn't for me i did a factory reset, it sorted my issue out with the market not upgrading to play store but that was it still no ICS so factory reset doesn't always work that is just Acers answer to a lot of problems when the customer rings or emails regardless of the fault 9 times out of 10 this does solve the issue but i don't see the relevance to doing a factory reset so we can download the update from acers servers the problem is acers fault not the customer and not the device so i would bitch aswell if i was told to reset and reinstall all my data with no 100% guarantee that it would update to the ICS the stock ics roms are they fully working or is there still issues with the orientation and wifi ? CyaN1de are you running one of these stock roms or are you running ota thanks

Thanks for that response. Some ppl do not understand that not everyone is technically gifted in terms of installing custom ROMs or tweaking software on devices. One has to be very patient by following instructions to the letter and still, some end up bricking their devices.

I agree that a full reset should not be required, but complaining your unit is not getting OTA then not even trying what was suggested and blaming someone else is just silly. Now if the reset did not work THEN I would be complaining non-stop to whoever would listen.

I run OTA on wifes A500 and custom Flexreaper (atm) on my A500 (had Icylicious on previously).

Put custom on mine the day I got it as I didn't want to wait for OTA because I'm an impatient SOB.

The 1.031 leaked rom on here is the same rom my wifes tab was updated to OTA. So simply extracting the update.zip to sd card and flashing via power+vol button is the same as getting it OTA from Acer.

1. Download zip from http://vache-android.com/v1/download.php?fileID=151
2. Unzip and extract update.zip from archive
3. Transfer update.zip to root of your micro sd card
4. Power up tablet holding power + vol (closest to power button) until you see something like "booting recovery kernal image" in upper left
5. Tablet will update to ICS and reboot.

All your apps and settings will remain as is.

Believe me, I am certainly not "technically gifted" in any way, shape or form. LOL

It simply comes down to following instructions (sometimes having to read them 3 or 4 times as not everyone's first language is English) written by the developers.
