Hello Everyone,
I am a newbie and I have spent several days browsing this forum trying to update my Acer Iconia A500 tab from ICS 4.0.3 to Jellybean with no luck. I do not have the necessary technical skills to understand how to do so. I would rather pay some good samaritan to do it for me remotely if possible than brick my device. I am attaching some screenshots to show you how far I have progressed. If you feel you can help me out than please PM me. Thanks!!!

Hello guys, I am new on android. I have downloaded honeycomb 3.1 update for motorola xoom from the internet.
Can i install it to my acer iconia a500?
if yes then how?
i have rooted my iconia a500. now i am not getting updates from acer like .40 and .41 that United states a500 holders received.
i am from Qatar.
is any one from middle east have received these updates?
waiting for reply.
Thanks.
No, you absolutely can NOT install the 3.1 for a different device on your Iconia. Not if you want a working tablet afterwards.
The last day or so have seen a breakthrough in the recovery software for our device, and there's a partially working beta of a 3.1 update specially for the Tab on these forums, but your best bet for now is waiting for the official update due within the next 2 weeks.
no you will KILL your tablet...
either wait for an update to hit your region or have someone a little more android savvy install the PRIMEE 1.4 custom rom for you.

check that
Also for future reference keep questions in the general thread as opposed to the development thread
thanks to all for reply
I am thankful to all who reply and save me from doing harm to my tablet.
i will keep care next time and will not post questions in this development section.
pardon me for that.
Hey guys, really new here. Its been great reading all of your threads and choosing a ROM to install on my Acer A500. I have what is possibly a really dumb question so I appologize but will Android 4.0 Ice Cream Sandwich (is it even out for installation?) run on the Acer Iconia A500? Isn't there a dev version out now? Thanks in advance!
P.S. does anyone know if I can get the Linux version of Gratuitous Space Battles to run on the Acer A500?
Please use the search tool next time, this has been discussed many times and your post is just spamming XDA.
Now, answering your question, rumor says Acer will be releaseing ICS on February (they have even confirmed so in their Mexican Tweeter account), who knows if they are serious this time. There are also a few A500 custom ROMs based on ICS, so hardware-wise, the A500 is more than capable of handling it.
Thanks. Moderators please feel free to delete this thread.
there are two threads that are on going about linux on the iconia.. One is in the dev section. the other i think is in the Apps and mods .
Ics does have a few roms out now..but none of them are complete.Neither of the two are on xda forums as stated above a quick google search will bring more results then asking in the forums...
There is no absolute to when and if .. we will get ics from acer..When it does I would suggest to not take the OTA . As its likely to not be able to be rooted from the start. IF when it does come the Developers will be all over it.. And we will see rom s that are rootable to be releases.
good luck
Hi all,
I open this thread, to make this request all the developers of this great community, and to play games with this screen is just great.
PS: I want to thank the work of Khanning and Krook, without them would be stalled even HC, my apologies for my poor english
Here is my issue to the best detail i can give.
I am trying to upgrade my Acer Iconia A500 to the latest ICS version, 4.1.2 but im having some issues, as far as loading into the Recovery mode
it says Recovery Verified Fail i understand this rookie question could be irritating to some but i am at a complete lose here, after over a week of searching this is just out of my skill level to try and figure out without asking any questions. i dont know what information i need to give but a step by step direction list would be great to start with my goal here is to get the my 4.0.3 to the latest and greatest any help would be appreciated.
