dave, 05 Aug 2013HUGELY DISSAPOINTED. I really expected a functional instrument. 1. WiFi pickup rubbish 2.... moreIU detect a iFan Apple troll .... the device is smooth and stable if you know how to use it .... then again, I have installed a custom Rom (As mentioned in an earlier post) - also you might just have a dud device with some hardware issuee (Always possible) which gives you bad experience (and I am just lucky to have a good device from the batch)
Actually Thor and DigitX makes a custom ROM for the A500 that is smooth and their latest 4.3 Rom adds features and makes my A500 super smooth with no issues yet (and its still a test version (the 4.3 Rom)) They have a 4.2 version also.
Take a look :

and this is for the 4.3 version

satish, 09 Aug 2013ya this is satish. i am using acer icona 500 tablet .yar 2 days i forgot the password of this ... morefactory reset.
Rubbish,too heavy and too slow
Dnt ever root your A500. Cos if u do it'll begin to have a glich and most times it freezes. I don't think its necessary to root your acer tab.
ya this is satish. i am using acer icona 500 tablet .yar 2 days i forgot the password of this tablet. can any one suggest how to recover the password of this tablet.
HUGELY DISSAPOINTED.
I really expected a functional instrument.
1. WiFi pickup rubbish
2. Browser closes and shuts all sessions often
3. Keypad typing malfunctions often. You can't see what you writing and it has mind of its own. Only way to reset is through all sorts of stupid actions like switching sessions or scrolling ... don't always work....
4. Delayed keyboard response... uuuurgggghhh
5. Does not display images in Google search when you drill into one
6. Youtube freezes. On my iPhone it works perfectly.
I am not a complaining type but this can't be better than some cheap rubbish from China. I am so so dissapointed. After a year I am switching to a product I can trust. Apple.
I am on latest version of OS. I have factory reset plenty. I give up.
I think it is partly to do with android.
What rubbish. In no uncertain terms.
Just got the acer A500 tab but I can't change the language from deutsh to english because there is only the deutsh option in the language settings and how can I upgrade the tab

Garry Cupper, 22 Feb 2013Can i install microsoft windows 8 on my iconia tab a500. and which version of microsoft window... moreI'm not sure you can install Windows on an Android tablet. That's why Acer has an A500 (Android) and a W500 (Windows).
Hope this helps.
