Our A500 is known to have GPS and not Agps. Due to honeycomb's restriction, it will now function as Agps.

My colleague's tf101 able to detect his own location in Google maps with wifi switched off!

Is RM 1.5k a good deal for iconia A500?

2nd hand o new??? new i think around rm1599 n 2nd hand around rm1300-rm1400 gua..dependin on age..hahaha..i oso wan buy a 2nd for my dad,....

New unit.

But finally I get one from SenQ, for the case and 2 years warranty @ RM 1549.

TS pls add my name

2 question:

How do I remove widget from home page?

How do I get pinyin input?

New to Android, please help...

U can always ask google for the answers. Just type your questions like u ask here and i'm pretty sure u would get at least a few correct answers.

Btw, to remove or add widget, just press and hold. Drag to bin to remove.

And WTH! (Welcome to Honeycomb)

Haha, I just got these 2 solved by myself, by exploring the a500, now I am confuse on the custom from thingy, need to do some research tomorrow!

add me too!!i just bought my unit today from senQ

I have wifi issue with unifi router...... keep disconnecting on me........

hi bro, i'm letting go my iconia, u interested? 4 months old. very good condition, seldom use.

Any tutorial for Acer Recovery Installer? Just want to make sure before I brick my device.

hi...i got my unit yesterday from sengheng@rm1599..(wonder hw u all can get it cheaper..??) i am new to android,so i hv a noob question..

What the 1st thing should i do with the tablet?i read at front page about root and custom ROM but i hv no idea what is all about..and y need to do that...

Hope someone can explain..tq..

just use it as it is for now, its better and safer for new users of android. make sure to do system update to honeycomb 3.1 if your system is still 3.0

by default if you connect to the internet, you should get a notification on a system update. if not then maybe your tablet is already updated to the latest version.

i myself wouldn't consider custom rom yet. everything is what i want from a tablet right now. i love using the tablet with a mouse

just go market search acer recovery installer, then select CWM to install...
then during reboot, press power+volome - you will go to a boot interface

thanks you very much!will try to update later...

You have to go back to SenQ and ask for your RM 50 cash voucher.

I asked them during testing the device, they put in their broacher but make dunno if you dun ask them.

Added on August 9, 2011, 2:29 pmI not yet try mouse or keyboard, but my pen drive is working fine with the full USB, the full USB is the reason I dropped Transformer and go for A500!

But when I try my 500GB HDD, it doesn't work, it's in FAT32. I read from forum they said A500 might need sometime to scan the drive to make it readable, will try again tonight.

big company oso wanna cheat cust aa...i will call their hq!

yes it can detect FAT32 but it takes quite a while to scan the disk. if u plug the disk into windows pc, windows also does the scan but we can skip the process. but as for android, unfortunately we cannot skip it. i think the scan process depends on how big the disk size and how many files are in it.
