Android 3.2 Honeycomb updates for Acer Iconia Tab A500 tablet are set to start rolling in a little over two weeks time. The new update was confirmed, without much press, on Wednesday by Acer Malaysia who stated the first Android 3.2 updates would roll to A500 customer on August 25th.

I did look, went back 3 pages.
Thanks for the link though!
As I saw it announced in at least 3 separate locations this morning I assumed it was new news.
Also when i typed in the subject and no suggested threads showed up I still thought it was new news.
People get so offended here.
Come to think of it now, I do remember that thread.
Oh well.
not offended
OK so now do I get my 4.0 please.

I wasn't offended. You missed my smiley at the end.
But when do we get the update that lets us run Windows Mobile?
(Dodges the thrown objects lol)
For real tho, great to know we have 3.2 coming in the near future. Not looking forward to having to undo a million changes to get the stupid update (which I hope is *not* incremental) to actually work lol

does anyone know when they gonna release the update ota.
sorry man, i haven't seen tmo release OTA updates for their WM devices. Most likely you'll have to download a RUU file and install it from pc.

There's an article on tmonews.com saying it's expected to drop today (5/18), but xtenpeben is right, it'll be a PC-based installer not OTA.

That update that the article was talking about was most likely the updated t-mo rom from this last week that's already been released.
Link is back up for the update for those that didn't get it the first go around.

Yes, it will probably just be the same one that was leaked last week...the article was just saying that Tmo would be "officially" releasing it today, and I've heard reports elsewhere that back that up.
ok,so is it worth updating to the new rom? i seened a lot of post from people talking about the problems with the new rom and rarely any positives so what do you guys think.

I'm giving it another week or two at least before I make the move. I think there's a lot of people who actually waited for the official release, so we'll start getting more feedback about it soon. You can call it "crowdsourcing the testing phase"...I'm waiting 'till I see more data
sirphunkee,im doing the same,i didnt really go through any of the issues tbat people were listing besides the data connection drop/switch(praying i don't jinx it) so it wouldn't kill me to wait a little longer,thanks for the feedback

Good idea And, if that's really the only issue you've had with the original ROM, you might be able to address it by flashing a new radio rather than a whole new ROM. I'm particularly waiting for that type of feedback on the new release...reception stability, etc.

America is fast asleep mate...and seems like the Americans are the ones getting an update. This Guy like he said just happened to be awake. Lets hope someone has a nightmare that Google died or something so they can wake up n post the ROM lol
This is the best news i heard today No AOSP??
Do you ever sleep? Or are you just waking up?
Are you more likely to get the update via 3g or over wifi?

I'm waiting for ICS update from acer. Could somebody tell me the time when it starts updating to ICS? If there's an unofficial way to make it happen, please inform me about it. Thank you.
Sent from my A500 using xda premium
Probably 6 months. It will be on the newly released tablets first. Then, sometime later, it will be officially pushed to current owners.
But then again, nobody really knows except the manufacturers.
Experimental Roms, will be out before then. But NOBODY is going to personally contact you. You'll have to check the dev threads on your own
As of right now Acer has not made any announcements regarding ICS to the A500 tablets. But like it was previously said, doesn't mean we wont hear about it in a few months.
AHHHH its all over the net.. acer has said mid January.But that does mean for sure we will get it then.. they always seem to be a bit behind..AS far as the dev of rom in this forum..
I hope i am wrong but seems they are stuck with driver issue for GPS CAMERA AND CAMCORDER.. AS well as a few other things.. I think these are proprietary to the acer tablet. this could make us have to wait for acer to release a rom or drivers specific for this tablet .
so as said about . NOBODY REALLY HAS ANY IDEA. Blazing and his team are working very hard i would say send him some pay pal help..As we all have done.. .
READ THE forum before asking a question so common as this one. its been answered a Billion times in the last few months..
dont take this personal But SEARCH FUNCTION HAS BEEN CREATED TO AVOID THREADS AS THIS ONE..
GOOD LUCK..
I found a ROM called Thor v14. After flashing the ROM, It looks great on my a500.But I have no idea that the ROM is based on real ICS. Somebody told me it was based on android 3.2.

The latest rumors now go that the A500 and PB's G100 will expect the ICS update coming April. It may well be that Acer kept its promise they made in January when they pushed the launchdate to April.

By the way, it's still super slow. This Tab is in dire need of some Jelly Bean butter...
please take a nandroid backup (with CWM5), and send me system.ext4.tar and boot.img.
thx!
youre ****ting me right? haha
VZW said they hadnt heard a word about this yet when I talked with them on Tuesday
Wonder when the 7.7 and 8.9 will be graced. I'm tempted to flash to 3.2 and spam system update.
Sent from my SCH-I815 using xda premium
Strange to hear that it is slow as colleagues from 7500 forum are really excited with the speed of ICS update (and I believe that firmwares should be almost the same). Have you done full wipe?
Anyone else get this?
I'm one OTA behind, the incremental one that came in about a month ago never installed on my tab.
Thinking of going back to bone stock in order to OTA up to ICS and get the necessary files over to Pershoot but not going to do that if this OTA isn't really rolling out yet.

Yeah, about that--first boot left it somewhat sluggish when scrolling through homescreens & widgets, launching TouchWiz apps and responding to touches. But subsequent reboots seemed to fix that. Browsing in Google Chrome is a VAST improvement over the stock browser in 3.2.

I had checked with Pershoot on saturday and he hadn't heard from jake . . based on jake's past postings I chalk this up to someone being close to Samsung or Verizon development who's unable to share specifics but wanting to leak out a hint of info. Basically confirmation we'll get an update but still no ETA. I for one appreciate the heads up and will continue to wait it out as patiently as I can. Would love to be wrong though, and to find out that he is in fact able to send files off to pershoot. That would be fantastic.
