Ok, I installed this from the Market this morning, after finally seeing the post in XDA about how to actually find it (My Apps, scroll to bottom, and if it's not installed, it'll be in the Not Installed section). Does anyone have any idea what this "update enhancement" is, and what it does...

My A500's rear (main) camera has been exhibiting some really, really odd behavior lately, and it changes when the device is rebooted. It has to do with color noise in both the preview and the final image. On the left 1/3 of the image, in ALL white balance modes EXCEPT incandescent (where it...

Has anyone gotten any updates (from a reliable source, e.g., Acer) on when ICS will come out for the A500? Are we still expecting it by the end of this month (only a few days left....)? Later, --jim

Per Acer tech support's instructions (followed carefully line by line), I sync'ed my apps and settings, and did a reset to fix GPS (that part is the only thing that worked). Acer tech support told me that my app settings and data would ALL be restored after I logged back in to my google...

My A500 doesn't have the usual Applications menu item for moving apps between the internal storage and the sdcard. How do I do this? Or, is this just not an option on the A500? Thanks, --jim

Actually, there are two questions here...one regarding FTP, the other about mounting a Samba//SMB filesystem via the A500. It turns out that I was wrong about having USB copying working. I got a list of files under the device name, but could not do anything with it. So now, I'm having...

I just got my Acer Iconia A500 earlier today, and am now trying to transfer files that I already backed up from my old tablet (which is about to be wiped and sent in for warranty repair). When I connect my tablet's microUSB to the computer's USB, the computer (winxp) wants to see it as a new...

I just bought an Archos 101 Internet tablet (16GB) and have a few questions (too curious to wait). :-) I was going to save up for a Galaxy Tab 10.1 (longer term) to have a top-rate tablet to take with me in case cancer strikes at me again. Cancer beat me to it. But, reading the ratings...

I am facing the possibility of being back in the hospital as an in-patient, if tests next week show what blood tests last week suggest (that cancer is trying to kill me again). If I'm able to get the money to buy one, and that's a HUGE if, is there an Android tablet that meets most or all of...

My Motorola Bravo (MB520) is set to automatically adjust the screen brightness depending on ambient light. HOWEVER, when I'm outside, on an even moderately sunny day (even in the shade), the screen is anywhere from nearly impossible to see, to completely impossible to see.... Is there an...

I am in SERIOUS need of a way to adjust the touch sensitivity on my Motorola Bravo. It WAS great. Then there was that horrible update to 2.2.1 (which nuked more settings, etc., than I ever thought it would---I thought it saved all of those and restored them). After 2.2.1, I sometime have...

I'm just getting into app development, and cannot get the virtual device working on my computer (and it would seem that nobody can tell me why). I am, therefore, trying to install stuff I've written (so far, just Hello World, but I have other things in mind, too) from the SDcard, but the...
