Hi
First thing i shall notice is that I may have english grammer mistakes because i'm from a non-english speaking country!!
then my questions,
q1 - I want to update my a500 to the latest official update. what is the latset official rom for a500? is there any news from 4.1 on it?!
q2 - I looked up threads about acer official roms in XDA. but i couldn't find the rom that fit my tab's build number! mine is "Acer_A500_4.010.43_COM_GEN1"
q3 - I have never tested a custom rom! (u may laugh to me!) because i'm afraid of their performance & stability. can you help me to choose the best and the most complete 4.1 (Jellybean) rom for a500? the one supports WIFI - USB - Audio - Camera and etc... (less diffrence with official rom on devices such as nexus 10)
Please note that i have never tried a custom rom and i don't know how to install & use. I haven't worked with Recover, bootloader, data wipe and etc. so please help me!
thanks very much for your assisstance.
I updated my Transformer pad tf300t to android 4.2 and it lags a lot right now. I want to go back to Android 4.1 or 4.0. I know how to do this but i cannot find a 4.1 or 4.0 firmware file for the 'US' sku version. I have searched everywhere but have found nothing. Please can anyone provide me with a link to the downloadable firmware file.
Everywhere, you say? Well, that doesn't sound correct. The firmware (full rom, really) for 4.1 is listed on http://support.asus.com.
To downgrade, it will wipe EVERYTHING except your external SD, if you have one. For good measure, take it out. But a word of caution, I wouldn't try downgrading to 4.0. To my knowledge, we are only able to downgrade to 4.1, but I would LOVE if someone tells me otherwise before you end up with yet another brick added to the long list.
And yes, 4.2 didn't fix much of the lag problems. It merely moved them, in my opinion. There is much less lag when installing apps (still very present), while there is a bit of lag when opening the quick settings and notification bars, which wasn't present in 4.1.

Fully agreed with this, after installing 4.2 it was laggy as hell then I went on to remove even more bloatware and cleanup the start-process, things got better but nowhere near as smooth as 4.1
My recommendation:
Backup your whole system on an external storage and wipe the whole thing, don't downgrade to 4.0 unless you are very sure (!) it works. I would only go down 1 number if that doesn't work use a custom ROM like Cyanogenmod, AOSPA or Paranoid.
I see in Google there is a lot of chat through 2012 of the unofficial and official updates of 4.0.3 for Iconia A500 and dealing with memory leaks and an issue of no longer being able to move Apps to external SD.
Now before you burn me up, keep in mind I no NOTHING about these devices except how they come from the store. I haven't rooted one, never considered putting a custom ROM on, and every time I try to read what you guys write on here I find I have more questions than answers and chicken out from doing anything "off the reservation".
That said... I have received the official ACER email on how to fix the GPS memory leak of sorts, I hope it works. I am still disturbed to find that there is no way to move my Apps from internal to external SD.
SO, my question is, as I gather ACER has no desire to update the OS, Would I be able to fix the issues above by rooting and installing one of the Custom Roms? If so, which one would I need for this? Finally, if I am to learn this, where are the absolutely simplest, speaking like Im a two year old directions for doing this step by step with everything I need?
Thanks all!

Bluetooth, Wifi
Really so many people are facing the wifi and bluetooth issues. come on, seriously? REBOOT!!!
Rebooting the mobile is not a fix for this problem. I have also been facing these problems even the mobile data button on the drop down notification gets stuck sometimes (Even ticking from the settings/mobile data off, it still was using my data and I realized my money was gone). battery life was ruined by the idous kernel, I have shifted to compact V1.3 kernel by nitu bhaskar, which is still better in terms of battery life, performance is not bad either and graphics is exceptional.
haven't tried others though. the only problem with the compact kernel is it doesn't support the A2SDGUI but link2sd works fine.(custom bootscreen! oh why ruin such a good kernel, dear nitu?)
So, thank you I can live with it, but please, these wifi, bluetooth, mobile data issues are needed to be addressed.
and btw why I can't even swipe to clear the running apps from the task manager menu. is it just for the looks or it really works?

I can't address the kernel issues as I didn't make it
Swipe to clear apps is only natively available on Android version ics 4.0 and higher
There is a thread in the general section where you can try implementing Swipe to kill into your rom for gingerbread
not going to be easy

:good: I have joined Xda few days ago and I am no pro at operating and handling languages well. but still, looking at it, trying to learn and adapt. will give it few days of study before I implement and experiment it.
who knows maybe you're going to be the reason behind my turning into a developer or I would be the reason behind turning my device into a bricked one :laugh:
Thanks mate
Just installed XDuosV3 2.0, need a little help with the OTA updates.
It's my first time flashing a custom rom, W/c is XDuosV3 2.0 and I just wanna ask how do I flash the OTA updates? Like the RC1. Can someone give me a step-by-step guide? Any response would be highly appreciated. Thanks.

Not looked at it but I presume you would just downloaded it and flash the zip in cwm with system data cache mounted

Superb ROM,
It works great, But also there are some disadvantages.
* Font is not comfortable for usual reading.
* Haptic Vibration Feedback is annoying

HOPE YOU WILL FIX THESE ISSUES ON NEXT UPDATE.

Hi all,
I have not been here in yonks but I know this forum is always helpful. I am trying to flash a slim updated rom on my old android galaxy note. Out of no where, so many of my apps on that phone stopped working and it kept saying, this device is not compatible etc. I tried all the tricks and still a lot of apps will not work.
I have Odin pro installed on the phone but I forgot how to use it lol so may require direct instructions. But can someone recommend a fast but small in size build to flash which is updated. It says on my galaxy note that it’s running 4.1.2 which is jelly bean. If I recall it’s probably a custom rom but it’s been so long.
Thanks I advance if anyone can help me with instructions, I know it’s easy to do, but it’s been ages.
Cheers [emoji106][emoji106]
