Dungeon defender. Try it =D

Btw, any cheap stylus that compatible with A500 to recommend for?

Your finger is better than even the best stylus eg I finger good quality expensive about rm120. But still loses out to own finger. You want to buy cheap don't bother just waste money
I have bought several type pen stylus from rm 30 to rm120 all waste money only. Nothing beats the natural response of own fingers

Hi guys is there a way to have Market Enabler to work on Acer A500?

What do you mean. It works very well but display is just a small screen on the iconia. Just install app, launch it - no special tricks or settings required

i have tried the rom that provides at here and the virtuous picasso  v1.08 but both still same got that logo appear.
I have paste the zip files in the sd card then shut down the device. Then press down volume button+on n hold it till the 4th line of the boot came out after the 4th line came out the the exclamation logo came out.
*
The symbol simply shows the tablet cannot find any rom file. All to be flash rom zip MUST BE in the EXTERNAL micro SD card NOT internal SD card

After I flashed HC3.1 (with root) using cwm and restore my data, a number of acer app such as social, multimedia, eReading all forced close... How to fix?

besides, TB could not acquire root, but ME, adfree are ok. shall i reinstall busybox?
*
when you launch these, error message says an app acer### ( cannot rember exact app name) force closure - go to settings/application/manage application look for this app and clear data. if you can't see this app look for Acer content folder clear data
if you are using juice defender remove it as this app causes such problems too

first time you launch titanium, select problems box, you will be prompted to upgrade super user status, choose it download and upgrade super user status

Update fails everytime. Called the acer support and the first lady i talked to didn't even know about the tablet, then talked to a different guy and he told me to do factory reset first. Haven't tried it yet but seems kinda stupid that a factory reset is needed for an update. This is really dissapointing. I was really looking forward to the update. Wil try it again after a full backup and post the results later.
*
No need factory reset
make sure any of the dfault apps you have freeze or removed are defrost and installed back
the update will scan your tablet for default completeness before it download
optional if rooted unroot it

You must revert back to 3.01 since you were on leaked hc3.1
Just restore back your backup from recovery

Just go to settings/about /system update

You cannot see the external micro SD card yet - it is a Honeycomb issue - affects all HC tablets. Hopefully newer updates will resolve this
