Not able to update to new OTA update for 3.1

Hi,
Like to check if anyone experience not able to update the new minor patch for 3.1. to 4.010.30. Background, I have recover my stock to 1.139.05_COM_GEN1 using step provided in XDA. After which I was able to update to 4.010.22. Today I receive an pop-up highlighting that there is an update to 4.010.30. I downloaded and try to update.
But it fail, at first I thought it is due to my 3.1 being Rooted. so I unrooted it. Same problem update fail. After that, I rooted 3.1 and use CWM to update the patch. It updated without any problem.
can anyone highlight experience the same problem? If yes, can we say that even we able to recover to stock ROM. We will still experience that same problem of not able to update for minor patch via the normal auto update?
update: Unroot and restart before install new update. By the way I got 4.010.38 today

coud you somehow post 4.010.30 to multiupload, since i did not get it.
it fixes some minor pb, the sound off problem when sleeping, and faster browser navigation.

I'm on 4.010.24_COM_GEN1. ...I got no further updates….…

OTA update today while running 3.1 stock

Just bought my a500 yesterday and it was on 3.0.1. As soon as I connected to wifi it asked to update so I did. It updated to 3.1. This morning it tossed me another update,when I looked in the version it still shows 3.1. Any idea what this could be?

Some updates have to be done incrementally. Your first update was probably to take you to 3.1 (full update) where this new one is probably a minor update for bug fixes.

UK OTA Update

Hi All,
I've done some searching on this and other forums but have yet to find a satisfactory and up to date answer.
As per the title....is there a UK OTA update?
My tablet is version 3.0.1
Build 1.016.05_com_gen1
Thanks in advance for any info

Hi Al'
I'm in no way an expert and I think the Acer method of naming files causes some confusion however, FWIW.......
I'm in the UK, my A500 had 3.01 when supplied and I received notification of update to 3.1 which I did. I'm currently on 4.01.41-com_gen1.
I'm now rooted and believe I can't rely on OTA updates but there IS a System update notification (7.006.01) which I believe is 3.2 but as this won't permit rooting, I haven't bothered with it.
Have you tried checking manually (I've got Automatic update checking disabled, perhaps you have too?).

Hiya mate,thanks for your reply
Yes auto update is enabled and have manually checked too,a bit frustrated,don't really want to go down the rooting route if I can help it but might have to.
Cheers

Quick update for anyone that's interested
Contacted Acer support who told me how to manually check for update....thanks,worked that one out already,duh!
Next they've said to factory reset then the update will become available.....er no its not happening!
They now say they'll book it in for a look......we'll see,hmmm

No updates here I use the xda updates now.

My A501 came with 3.01 in November and I was offerered the 3.2 OTA update almost as soon as I powered it up and connected to the net for the first time. It has now OTA updated to 3.2 in the UK quite happliy.

My tablet doesn't see the ICS OTA update

Hello,
I'm trying to check for the ICS OTA update for my Iconia A500 but i keep getting the "Your device is up to date" answer since 2 days.
My A500 was never rooted, it is running the official 3.2.1 ROM, and was only updated with all previous official OTA Acer updates. More details here below:
Model Number: A500
Android Version: 3.2.1
Kernel Version: 2.6.36.3+
Build Number: Acer_A500_7.014.14_COM_GEN1
I've also tried to uninstall and reinstall the "ICONIA TAB Update Enhancement" app from the Google Play store but it does not work either.
Any idea why my table can't see the official ICS OTA updated?
Thanks

Be patient maximum 2 more days , it will update soon.

Did you get the update app in Google play? Search Acer it should be right there. I did that last night and this morning I updated to ics

Yes, as mentioned, I also tried to uninstall and re-install the Acer "ICONIA TAB Update Enhancement" application from Google Play but the OTA update is still not visible

I also do not have a System Update under the system settings option. I am rooted and did have flexreaper ics, but went back to stock 3.2.1 with root and busybox..... but no update option showing. Any way to fix this?

No Joy as well
I have not received the update as of yet. I am sure it will update. I wonder if they have delayed the update due to some of the issues I have been reading about the past day.

no ics yet?
any idea what's up with the 1/8th of us without ICS update?
In vancouver, BC, running latest upgraded iconia a500 1st gen

I am having the same problem. I downgraded back to Honeycomb 3.2.1 and then unrooted using the ROM Manager app... I'm just confused and a little disappointed that this isn't working. I guess I shouldn't have jumped the gun and used the flexreaper rom early :/

i was having the same problem but it was me being lazy and don't want to wifi OTA from 3.01 to ICS. it turned out the 3.2 stock rom i have flashed always get the message of "your device is up to date". so i simply do a full restore of my original system and it OTA without problem. hope this would help out some of you stuck on the "your device is up to date". i noticed my updated stock rom is kept at GEN2 and GEN 2 is for US. so you guys could try to flash with the stock Acer_A500_7.006.01_COM_GEN2 rom and see if it would solve your problem if you never backed up your original system. Below is the link with all the stock available thanks to vache. i forgot to mention that the stock 3.2 i had flash is GEN1 that gives me the message of "device already up to date". after i wifi OTA from my original stock system 3.01 to ICS, i noticed they all have GEN2 after it.

OK, being fedup of waiting for the OTA update, I did the update manually myself. I've tried first to use the 3.2 GEN2 update then tried to run OTA but it did not worked ("your device is up to date"). So the only solution left was to do the update using the ICS update.zip that was available in the post URL you mentionned. And now my tablet is up and running with ICS.
Thanks a lot to all for your help and especially to chris8599

Tablet freezes frequently

My tab freezes about once a day. It usually happens when I'm using the Flipboard app, but today it happened twice while I was using the Google News app. I restarted after it happened the first time, then it happened again soon after I restarted and went back to Google News.
My tab is up to date with the latest US firmware. It's unrooted, nothing modified. I do use Novalauncher, but I don't know if that's a factor. Is anybody else having this problem? Any suggestions on how to fix it?

Oneui 2.5 is buggy. Mine random restarts all the time. I installed Odin and went back to oneui 2.1

Try installing the latest update for OneUI 2.5 and see if that resolves your issues.

I have the September update installed, T720XXU1CTI. Does that include the OneUI update you're talking about? If not, what update do I need and where would I find it?

Try installing the November update via OTA and see if that helps. In the mean time try wiping the cache partition in Recovery Mode.
