I think it will be more helpful if you post your Build number that is under About tablet section of "Settings". That way we can't help you more.

Unless your tab is from Malaysia area which should be the beginning of 3.2 but has an August 10th start date, post your build number please.

NY and still acer_a500_4.010.13_com_gen2. Expecting the OTA tomorrow.

Ahh .13 in the states is actually a couple of weeks old, may have been a really slow auto update or your tab is just really new as it seems updates come in slowly depending on your SNID #

The update will probably be delayed a bit for carrier branded tabs due to carrier testing etc. As usual :-(
got a notice for an update on a sprint tab, but battery dead so have to charge b4 i udpate
also, anyone know if you can still receive OTA even after the tab's rooted?

Is there any way to get media sites to ask when 3.1 will get to Acer?

Just a question and my first post here.
I got 3.1 from Acer on July 5th...
Contacted Acer today about the update and was told that I can expect it in a week or two and it is being rolled out in batches. It's also not a bad idea to make sure that your device is registered in their system, just in case that factors in you getting an update pushed your way.

Thanks, I'm new to this tablet deal but I already think this is my device of choice over PC, except for gaming. Maybe not all gaming but I really want Diablo 3.

New DOCK firmware available

Just got a notification saying there was an update for my dock!
Anyone else get it?

Lul how long is this going to go on for? I was the first to report this weeks ago, seems there is some random update that's not really an update for the dock showing up for peeps, but it's not new it's still the same firmware that was already out 209. Sucks I know I was all excited too when it happened to me.
Dayum,
mods,

HELP Odd build stopping 3.1 update

My xoom details
MZ601 firmware is GAS_EMEA_UCAEVRSTURTCOREEU_P028
BASE N_01.83.19P
KERNAL 2.6.36.3
BUILD H.6.1-999
Been trying everything to get the update on my stock UK 3G but keeps saying no update available. I've even defaulted my xoom to no avail.
I've also sent a pm to matt on the mots forum but no reply. I feeling cheated now, I've had my xoom from day 1 and felt it was incomplete but the glimmer of hope has always been the 3.1 3.2 update.

For anyone with the same build, and Matt from moto forum has informed me this is demo hardware and not for retail sale.
Need to get hold of CPW and get a new one.
Any advise on how to handle CPW appreciated

Back on the update merry go round..!!

Dumped htc for saying an update would be released by certain time then waiting months...now with samsung they release an update in a couple of countries yet us in the UK still waiting a month later...? Why.??? Even my unlocked, unbranded note 2...!!!?????

I'm on the same bandwagon. Don't worry. Samsung is a lot faster with updates than HTC. So I think you've picked the right company, but the GENERAL rule of thumb is that you should buy a phone and be happy with the software it comes with, and don't expect it to be updated. Regardless, Unlocked N7100 from Germany DBT and still nothing. I bought it based on the Note 1 which ALWAYS got the updates FIRST from DBT. Now other countries have received their update and I haven't yet. Oh well. I'm still terribly happy with this phone and software! I can't say that the update will make it much better xD It's fantastic just the way it is, but I'm an update junky! haha. So just sit back and relax It'll come.

i love my GN2 but Samsung is a S**t company when it comes for updates,they never say anything what changes are made on Updates and they only do updates only in few countries which it barely sales the phone and not to the countries which they sold most
Tell me which phone manufacturer announce exactly when updates come? Moto is even worse based on ics update. When I got the phone it was mentioned all over the website promised ics update.
Then after almost a year they release a schedule for update which promises q1 2012.. End of q1 2012 came and all no update. A month later announced q2 2012. End of q2 came and gone. A month later the update finally came for me. At that time the is still many users without ics. Even today not all received their ics.
Btw the ics update made the phone laggy. Full reset removed the Laginess for a week or so before it came back. Don't tell me it's an app I instants because the only app installed then was line, whatsapp and tango. And mx player.
And this is supposed to be a ics phone. But quirks much better in gb.

In general, updates are delayed by carrier testing, so they can make sure it causes no issues on their network, but it takes even longer for unlocked/sim-free phones as they're tested on many more networks.
However I will say that if you're so adamant on getting updates ASAP you bought the wrong phone, the only phones you should look at for that are Nexus phones. Even those can have their updates significantly delayed by carrier testing though.

My point was the fact that the official update was released in a few countries about a month ago and yet nothing in the UK..? And yet Samsung has already started going on about the next update to be released in jan/feb !! We need this one first please..!!!

I don't really buy that story. For carrier phones yes but what about international nonbranded phones?

I'd imagine that Samsung are doing a pilot release to a few countries first. If no major issues are reported then they release it to everyone else a short time later (like a month or so).
Makes sense really when you think about it, IMHO anyhow.
Btw waiting for the update here in Ireland too if it makes you feel any better
