If so, could you please let me know what version of Google Play Services it installs on the watch. Slow rollout means I can grab it yet...
See if you can update it from here:

Not yet. Not sure what they've updated. The change log stated there seems the same as last time. BUT being hopeful they fixed a few bugs...

I have two Acer tablets, an Iconia A100 and Iconia A500. Both came with the Android Market app installed. When the Google Play Store app became available last month, my Acer Iconia A500 tablet automatically installed the new app.
My Acer Iconia A100 still has the Android Market app; it never updated to the Google Play Store app. I have the latest stock operating system (Android 3.2, Build Acer_A100_1.018.05_COM_GEN2). Google tells me that Acer is responsible for pushing the Google Play Store app to the tablet.
Have any of you in the U.S. received an automatic update to the Google Play Store app on your A100? If so, approximately how long ago? I'm fine with keeping the Android Market app, but will it work okay with Ice Cream Sandwich once that's pushed later this month?
Thanks for your assistance!
The only difference I can discern between my "Market" app and the "Play" App is the icon.

Only thing different is the name...on 3.2.1 it will automatically update once you click on the android market icon...the process is less than 10 seconds...maybe you should upgrade to 3.2.1?
Thanks for your responses!

When I go to "About Tablet" and click on "System Update," it tells me "Your device is up to date." How do I get 3.2.1 on my A100? I'm not very Android-savvy beyond the basics and I don't want to mess up the tablet!
The only thing different is the name. You are better off waiting for the ICS update next week then messing with trying to get the 3.2.1 update.

I'm actually fine with the Android Market app. My only concern is if ICS will still be pushed to my A100 around April 27th if I'm currently running 3.2, or will 3.2.1 be required before that will happen?
My Acer Iconia A500 has 3.2.1 and I received an "Iconia Tab Update Enhancement" on that tablet earlier this month (which I understand is for the A500/501 only, in preparation for ICS). Nothing like that has come through on my A100, and I'm wondering if it's because I don't have 3.2.1.
I rather have my icon say Google Market rather that Play. The latter seems a little corny to me.

After starting this thread, I sent an email to Acer. I told them that my A100 has Android 3.2 and the Android Market app, and I asked if it will be necessary to update to 3.2.1 before the 4.0 upgrade next week.
In part, here is their reply:
I have verified your product serial number and found that the unit is covered under the standard limited warranty.
I suggest you to wait for few days as the new version of the operating system would be installed on your system sooner or later.
If you are not getting the new operating system, then you can for sure contact us back again.

Very vague. Well, a few hours after receiving their reply, my Android Market app was updated to Google Play, and I received notification of several app updates. My A100 has not been updated to 3.2.1, however. When I check on the device it still says "Your device is up to date."
The tech support person did not answer my question as to whether it's essential to have 3.2.1 before the tablet can update to 4.0. Does anyone here know? Also, how long ago did you receive the 3.2.1 update? Was it months ago or more recently?
Maybe he doesn't know. The 3.2.1 update is suppose to fix some issues with the headphones (from what I've read). PS: Version 3.2.1 was released quite a while ago.
Thanks for your reply, dansul. I did a Google search and learned that 3.2.1 was sent out to the U.S. in January. I also found some forum posts saying that Build GEN2 (the version I have) didn't get 3.2.1.
I'll just wait and see if 4.0 comes to my A100. If I don't see it by early May then I'll contact Acer.
I just got a 19 mb update to Android Wear app on my watch (no update on my phone). There's no app on the watch for it but I'm curious what it was for. Anyone know? I'm not referring to the AW 2.0 update we got last Friday.
Hi, a few days ago I manually checked for updates on my Galaxy A7 2017 and found a new update was available. I updated immediately,since it was the first update I received in a long time, and was excited with the new features this update was supposed to bring. (Selfie Focus, mask effects, etc.), but none of these appeared as an option, I'm able to download mask filters, but when I try to use them, nothing happens.
My device jumped from October 2017 security revision to February 2018, so that maybe has something to do?
Anyways, I was wondering if anyone could help me with this, I've already deleted the app data from the stock camera, with no results, so I was wondering if anyone had an apk file to share or any other solutions.

I've already checked, no updates are available.
I am on Android 12 latest release and rooted. I get persistent notifications that I should update to Android 12. How can I stop this annoying notification? I saw a suggestion to disable Google services so I tried that, but all that happened was that I got an even more persistent notification to enable Google services! Any help is appreciated.

Thanks for this response.
hi everyone ,,,
I want to share my experience with this phone, the hardware is very good but the software is S***, waited for 1st update 3 months, and nothing fixed, second update 3 months and nothing is fixed, ( unexpected crashes, recent app windows lagging very badly, contacts don't show names in miss calls).
contacted support more than once, they don't have any understanding of any issue its like an auto message that tells you to wait for the next update and they don't have any schedule when the update will be released.
we are in Jan 2022 and my latest update is android 11 , October security patch.
I would not recommend this phone for anyone, don't make the mistake that I did.
I am selling this phone ASAP.
Thank you

I agree that this phone hardware is a beast ! The software unfortunately is really bad especially i came from iOS which everybody knows how good they are with their softwares and updates. I already know that these kinds of android phone maker won't have software support as good as S*msung, let alone Ap*le.
However to be honest i don't have all the problems mentioned in your posts other than occasional Nubia launcher crashing (so i switched to using Niagara Launcher). There are lots of third party modification on playstore which can run great thanks to this phone beastly hardware. So i guess i can live with it.
Have you tried installing Global ROM (any one other than the one came with the phone when you buy it)
They dropped new update for EU Rom, i hope NA & Asia ROM gets an update too asap.
Edit**
Nvm update v427 for NA and Asia is available. Gonna try install it.
