hi guys - i can't find facebook on teh market - any ideas?
Unfortunately Facebook doesn't work on Android 3.2 yet, you can download an APK and manually install it, but you will find it mega buggy
great! Thought I was going bonkers!
I restored Facebook from my Corvus5 Titanium backup onto Vegacomb 3.2 and haven't had a problem yet, but I haven't pushed it.
Have you tried friendcaster tab or friendme?
Both made for honeycomb

Hi there, I also can't do the update to google maps 5.40 :-(
I already post the problem in a german forum, but there is no one else, who got any problems with the update so far.
I decide to contact Acer tomorrow and I hope they got a solution for this.
Maybe it has something to do with the different versions of the rom.
By the way my Build Version is Acer_A500_1.107.01_EMEA_CU7
I also find out, that my version of google maps is very old. I got the version 5.20 on my tablet :-(

It's a really stupid question but did you hit the update button? Not the one over the apps in the left side but under the open, somewhere in the middle.
Hi there
Yes of course did I hit the update button ;-)
But it won't finish the installation successfull :-(
I also got an Samsung I9000 and I tried to exchange the maps.apk on the A500 with the new one from the smartphone, but unsuccessfull.
First I renamed the maps.apk into mapsold.apk on the tab and copied the file from the I9000 into the system/app folder, but the A500 still
starts the old one. Really strange.
When I moved the file mapsold.apk to the external sd-card, the app icon disapeared in the app list and this ist more strange.
I give up for this time and will contact acer and ask them to solve this problem.
I hope the can explain it to me...
Good night....

it's possibly because of where the original APK for google maps is located. A possible workaround (please backup your google maps APK) is to:
1. Enable root access on your tablet
2. Download root explorer
3. Using root explorer, delete the google maps APK file from the system/app directory
4. Using the Google market download google maps - it should allow you to install it now into user memory space
i could now successfully update! The problem was i was just having 200 Mb left on sd card...dunno why this was not inogh...i deleted some movies now i have around 4 Gb left and update succeed!
Hi, I tried it under root. I delete the original file with rootexplorer and installed google maps again from the market. The installation still failed :-(
I wrote an email to acer support and i'm waiting for an answer.
Maybe something is wrong with my tab or with the rom.
Wish all of you a nice weekend

i recently installed some custom roms on my acer a500. in one of them that was base on stock rom there was an application named "musicA".
i installed a new rom base on motorola xoom and backed up the app by androzip and titanium backup. but none of them are installed on new rom. and it was such a great music search. and i cant find it on market. does anybody know where can i find the app? or a way to just make it work? (i also tested shazam and soundhound none of them was as good as the app)
i uploaded the file if u want to test it :-?

Hi readers.
I've got a weird update method for the Android Market. The Android Market version on my phone was 3.2.0 before the v3.3.11 update. I didn't know there was an update for Android Market until I went to the Application Information of Android Market, I forced closed it, cleared its data and cache. I opened the Android Market app and realized it looked different from before, I went to the Settings of Android Market and saw the version was updated from 3.2.0 to 3.3.11.
I cleared the data of Android Market was to solve the problem of missing downloaded apps on 'My apps' section, this method definitely works for me.
I just want to share my experience with all of you, and hope this method works for u guys if u have problems updating the Android Market on your phone.
What ROM and Kernel I am using, you can find it on my signature.
Thanks for reading. =)
I have old market and killed updater....new ones are toooo laggy ;]
This update is much faster than previous ones, u may want to try it. Before you try this, you may want to backup your old Android Market by using Titanium Backup(I highly recommend this app) or other apps that can backup and restore apps.
There's one bad thing about the New Android Market, it is not able to download multiple apps at the same time, but the Old Android Market is able to.

Hi,
Is there a way/possibility to port stock apps from ICS (4.0.x) to HC (3.2.1)? I'm asking because I was just on Thor's ICS dev build and checked out the rom a little bit. E-mail 4.1 app for instance can now sync all mail in stead of only one month (tried it with Hotmail-exchange). Contacts and Calendar app look nicer too. So, I'm curious! Currently back on Thor's rom v14.2. If it's possible then a small how-to would be great.

Yes and No. It depends on the Android API level the application was compiled for.
So if the application was written only for ICS API the answer is NO. However, if it wasn't then the answer is yes.

I think I have an ICS stock apps dump on my computer somewhere, I can try to install them and see which ones install on my tablet running rooted 3.2 and let yall know.
That would be great, thanks!

I recently installed the newest MIUI build which is running pretty stable for me however the latest Whatsapp is not installing (says it's incompatible...). I found this thread which tells me that I can install an old version of the program and be able to run it, however every time I open it, it asks me to update to the newer version (and surprise! Whatsapp doesn't "support" custom ROMs). Is there any way to trick the Market (or "Play"...horrible name btw) to install? Thanks!!
I couldn't did it in the market or restore it from tibu backup either
