New Update 7.014.14

Checked for updates today and received 2 back to back.
Acer_A500_7.014.01_COM_GEN1 (expected) and
Acer_A500_7.014.14_COM_GEN1 (unexpected)
During install i got a screen I have never seen before... it said "Configuring Tablet" "DO NOT POWER OFF" "DO NOT RESET"
I tried to get a picture of it but wouldn't you know it my camera is screwing up.

Here is a screen of it that I've taken with my HTC Desire
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",

"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
And I got the Acer_A500_7.014.15_COM_GEN1

Yep, that's the one. have you found a change log or anything saying what changed?

What was the size(s) of these new updates?

little over 7 meg, 7.35 I think.

I get this second update few minutes ago . I don't see any difference except this new info screen posted above. Maybe It's some sort of preparation for ITS ?!

Yep same here
Just got both
Mine however were .03 (1st update) and now .15 (2nd Update)
Based in New Zealand.
First update was just over 3 megs
the 2nd was just under 7.5 megs
the 2nd one gives you the new screen (maybe the first one loads the screen for the 2nd one to display)

Right my info now is
3.2.1 Android version
Kernel at 2.6.36.3+
Build at Acer_A500_7.014.15_com_gen1

just updated my tablet and mine say's 7.014.14

New market format looks nice, showing ver 3.4.4 , I like it better than before the update

I received the 7.014.01 early this morning and now, I received the new one 7.014.14 ts about 7,51 MB

Just had the update myself. Super quick for both! Browser did keep shutting down, but I think that it has stopped doing that now! New market, yes i guess it looks ok, but have had that for time on my phone. Here is what I have found out about the 3.2.1.update:
The Android 3.2.1 update was released on 20 September 2011, and included a number of amendments:
.Bug fixes and minor security, stability and Wi-Fi improvements
.Update to Android Market with automatic updates and easier-to-read Terms and Condition text
.Update to Google Books
.Improved Adobe Flash support in browser
.Improved Chinese handwriting prediction.
Really looking forward to the ICS update, yes I know many ppl on here have been saying it wont happen, but I feel lucky! If it dosent happen, then I will be getting the Transformer Prime, just because of the name and o yer the prossecer lol!

This looks like for it is for people outside the US since it is Gen1 and mine says Gen2 and I am still on .02

Hmm, so what is the difference between Gen1 and Gen2?

Well, the Android Central blog listed this update in december, but it only reaches my tablet yesterday. I think they release the updates by region

Exactly. it's a bull that they are withholding the update for the note4 until after the s6 is released. wanna know why? So you buy the s6 cause it has lolli already, it's ridiculous the way carriers dictate the duration of the update process. They get the rom from Samsung, then they do their bloat thing, test it in crappy small markets, then release they've been sitting on it for over a month now just waiting for the s6 to drop. They've had so many people call and complain that they started a Web page.. lol that's pretty bad.. Don't blame Samsung for lack of the update, blame your favorite carrier. it them. That's why the g3 got it, the s5, the note3 is in testing in diff markets.. Why would one do that? because they want you to buy the latest greatest hit. Not because the s5 is of more importance due to the numbers sold.. so in conclusion, time for a new s6. Lol

Just noticed that the note 4 is now at tmoble testing phase... my guess is we're 2 weeks behind it.

dont know what is the freaking hold up !
i heard ATT note edge got the lick candy today !

I see that tmobile is testing the lollipop on the note 4, I think after they roll out the upate for the note 4 they would start foucusing on the note edge.

The excuse i got was: Since N4 and Edge are the only 2 phones compatable with Samsung VR1 they were waiting on the manufacturer of the vr to finish so they can begin coding in the VR part to LP. They didnt want to telease LP without the VR stuff teady to go. Aftet seeing all the complaints about battery drain and so on with 5.0 on the N4s that received it, i cant wait to see what happens when you hook up VR to your N4/Edge with 5.0...probably a nice little explosion...lol

Lollipop getting closer! Now at T-Mobile testing phase!

Note 4 testing is completed. Took about 3 weeks. So chances are Note Edge will be out in more or less 2 weeks as Note Edge started testing phase last week..

Apparently lollipop is out for Tmobile Edge but as of this morning the T-mobile update page says still testing! lol

Yea i got this too...u gotta dl it from sammmobile site....

Ha! You have to look in the right places I guess. Problem for me is that I've got things running so sweetly with hyperdrive, foerverlocos theme and some xposed modules I'm a bit reluctant to take the plunge for now. I checked out lollipop on my Note 3 and having ART is a nice improvement but I missed Xposed and even more so, Tweaked! Indeed I put Tweaked back on. Looking forward to hear about folks experience with Lollipop on T-mobile Edge.

Downloading it now.

There is a warning before you install saying your ram will decrease by a minimum of 950mb after update.

Did anyone else's apps that were installed on an SD card no longer work after installing the update?

Android Updates broken even with the nexus line

So I have a Nexus (6) device, and i thought that if i get a nexus device i will receive updates the day that they are released. It's been 2 days and i still can't update my phone to the latest version. I'm not talking about OTA here, I'm talking about factory images that are not released yet. 3 phones google has to update, 3 phones that they made!! 3 and they can't even manage that? It's pathetic really, this is the last nail in the coffin for me, after 6 years of being an android fan i will switch to ios and buy the iPhone 7. Honestly i cant wait for my phone to get updates when they are released and to be supported for 4 years!

be patient my friend

I dont like it either but buying an iphone?

Surprised 2 days of waiting so far makes you this angry... I mean I could understand the anger at waiting over a week but 2 days? Wow...
Sent from my Nexus 6 using XDA-Developers mobile app

Since they never announced a release date, you can't really say they're 2 days late. Unlike iOS each phone is different hardware from a different manufacturer. If you'd feel better they could be like Apple and push the release back till all their devices are ready. Which is all and good, till the shoe is on the other foot and your devices' update is ready and you're left waiting for the other devices.

Not saying you rant post is cool just commenting that this might be the strangest roll out so far. Usually they have them all at once. It's a little weird. Gotta say even apple beats them at this

I'd rather wait a week after rollout to get a fully cooked update rather than an immediate update that drains my battery in 1hr or turns my phone into a paperweight.
Patience. If you're so eager just install the Dev Beta. and play with that until the update comes out.

It's normal for the tablets to be first, if you noticed, it was WiFi only devices that have nougat (Pixel C, Nexus 9 wifi etc). Give it time, and we'll all have it.

Second maybe. Remember the MM rollout with the new factory image every other day situation? For awhile there nobody had any clue why there were multiple different MM images. Every time i installed an image it seemed like a new one was up as soon as i finished. When it was confirmed it was for different carrier tweaks it all made more sense, maybe they are trying to avoid that this time around.

Ask SAMSUNG fanatics how long they wait to get the new OS. ?
Sent from my Nexus 6 using Tapatalk

I am only guessing but perhaps there is a bug in the final release. Maybe something they are working on before we get it. I would rather wait a few days if that be the case.
The preview 5 is fairly close to the final version so there won't be much changes. (I have a Nexus Player and it has already updated. Frankly the only change I noted was the Beta program warning not there anymore.)

Hopefully you won't have to wait too much longer.

Need root for asus zenpad 10 3s z500m p027

Hello,
I absolutly NEED root for that model i've already searched for it but they failed.
Because i'm new on this amazing forum i can't post url but you will find the rom .img and also the source code on Asus's site (yes they're really not logic ...)
already tried all the one click tools that exists on internet
Okey mostly they failed to mess with the bootloader and so ... hope you'll find a way to mess with that ******* bootloader
have a nice day.

Any update on this?

i'm actually waiting for it :/

really waiting a tablet without root is a nightmare

I would also greatly appreciate working root on the z500m...I'd even pay 50 bucks for it...

Same here, just got my ZenPad in and didn't bother to search ROMs before purchasing it. The ASUS launcher is pretty bad.

Any uodate

What is Kingroot? Does it work with this tablet?

Kingroot is an app, which allows you easily to root almost every android device.
I believe that it will work on your Asus tablet.
If you need further help, do not hesitate to ask me!

Kingroot did not work.

The lack of root was the reason I sold my Zenpad. Great device and specs, very smooth and quick responsive display. But no Nougat in sight AND no custom ROMs meant I was stuck with ASUS's custom UI for life. That wouldn't be too bad if they actually updated it to Nougat and gave me multiwindows.

We need somebody that's able root from the source code given from asus's site

No progress as far as I know, but I messaged ASUS about the nougat update and they confirmed it would be released at the end of the 2nd quarter. I asked about the Z500KL, but I guess the Z500M will get it as well.

I can't find any bootloader's that works with the p027 tablet. The installed Asus launcher, keyboard, and just about every other thing loaded on this tablet is crap. But........ If you ditch all that crap and get Nova launcher, new font packs and Gboard ( Google's new keyboard) you will find your experience much improved. It will give you alot of the functionality and speeds of nougat. Force stop and disable all the bloatware, ditch the Facebook and Twitter apps which are battery and memory hogs and get Metal for Facebook. This fix will give you a tablet that's on par with the Pixel C. Still have yet to figure out the Quick charge issues with this tablet.

What Quick charge issues? I use my Google pixel charger and it works flawlessly

I emailed Asus support and was told there won't be any updates. Which just adds to the confusion.
For those of you who don't like the launcher - there are lots out there on the Play Store you can try. I have Action Launcher running on mine .. works fine.
