Sending my 101 back

---

Well I think I will send my 101 back to TD and go with the SGT instead, the new update is making my 101 unbearable as it freezes often, and honestly I don't thing there is enough interest for someone to work on it and get root and roms out.

Hopefully I'm wrong and someone with the skills required to fix the issues Archos/Google can't seem to get right, will come along and make this the great tablet it could be with the right firmware/os

Try downgrading Voice Search, I had the same problems with my A70 untill I downgraded Voice Search and now its flying. Goto Settings, Applications, Manage Applications and find Voice Search. Click on it and click Uninstall updates, should make your A101 run fine again.

Where is that? All i see is force stop and clear data the other tabs are greyed out.

try to uninstall

you can also install OS Monitor and check for apps with high CPU usage

When I did it it was right of Force Stop, but if it has Uninstall greyed out then Voice Search is not causing the problem for you.

Check Best Buy for the Huawei before getting SGT. It is 300 and said no Contract. Seems like a good device. Hardware buttons are in a strange place but I would say better then these software ones that are unresponsive at times.

I have used a few of the Huawei devices and was surprised at how well designed they are for the price but I would be very concerned about slower clock speed, and Android 2.1, especially for a user that would send a 101 back for not being fast enough.

The OP should take a close look at the apps that you are running on the 101. Something must be slowing it down. If it runs slow out of the box, you could call customer service. My 70 with the firmware update is faster than any other device I have used including iPad and top of the line Android phones.

My 70 gets slowed down by errant background tasks. It still doesn't kill tasks like it should. It kills them based on RAM but sometimes you have something keeping your cpu super busy and it doesn't seem to be smart enough to kill that.

i have alleviated the freezes to some extent, but getting my Epic to tether either via ad-hoc, or usb doesn't seem to work,

root does not seem to be coming anytime soon to the Archo's line, so I'm still debating on whether or not to send it back.
