Check for updates in the settings

It says it's the latest.
I just want a custom ROM because it won't update

To update the software immediately, manually update your TV through the TV menu.
Press the HOME button.
Select the Apps icon.
Select Help.
Select System software update.
Select Software update.

Sorry for the late reply but it just says it's the latest

Trying to go from Android 3.01 to 3.2

I just purchased a new Iconia Tab A500 16G version. It came with Android 3.01. I have yet to setup a WiFi connection for home use. So I won't get OTA upgrades until I do. I started reading messages trying to figure out how to upgrade from 3.01 to 3.1 and finally 3.2. I looked at my "About" tab and found this info:
Kernel: 2.6.36.3-00001-944a8bac and Build: Acer_A500_1.145.09_COM_GEN1. Where do I need to go from here? Exactly what do I need to download and install? I have a Netgear Dual Router(2.4G and 5.0G) and a USB "N" stick. I just need to find the driver for the USB stick. Or download then from Netgear. While I work on that, can someone please tell me exactly what I need in the way of software? Considering what build I already have, what do I need to get me to Android 3.1 and 3.2? Or do I need to go that road? I know I can't get to 3.2 from 3.01. So please, someone - I'd really appreciate a little schooling.

Your tablet already has a WiFi adapter built-in, so you can toss aside the USB "N" stick. You can use the "Settings" app where the top choice is for "Wireless and networks". You should be able to muddle through setting up your wireless network, assuming that you have already set up the Netgear router with an SSID, protocol, and password. This will put you on the road to an OTA (over-the-air) update of your A500. Once you've connected to the web you can register your A500 and set up Gmail, etc.

That don't need to do anything - just set up the wifi connection and you should be automatically notified of the available updates. Bear in mind that you can't root the 3.2 that comes OTA.

Why I can't update from 3.0.1 to 3.2

I purchased my tablet from US and I live in india. Only one time i was able to update when i run it first time, after than never got any message for update of Android Version.
When i go to Settings>About Tablet and click on System Update and check for new version it's gives me message "Your device is up to date" and when i see the version details than these are
Model Number : A500
Android Version : 3.0.1
Kernel Version : 2.6.36-00017-gc98d63f
Build Number : Acer_A500_1.016.01_COM_GEN1
Update is not available for india yet or where i am wrong please help.
Not sure if your locale has anything to do with getting updates. That's typically an issue with 3G providers, but as long as your tablet is an A500 (wifi only version) it should find the OTA updates no problem, that it unless you are running a custom ROM. Either way, you can manually update your tablet. All the information you need is here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1113878
If you currently have a custom ROM or rooted your stock ROM, you will lose root by updating to a newer stock ROM, and the only way to recover root is by reverting back to Android 3.0. There are several custom ROM's based on 3.2 which already have root, if you also choose to go that route. If you have no idea what I mean when I mention root, just don't worry about it and carry on with that link I posted
Thanks Bloodflame, Yes i read that it can not be rooted and thank you for the link to get it update manually but i don't understand why i am not able to get updates.
And whether it is good to update with 3.0.2 ? Please suggest.

can't explain why you're unable to OTA update, but the security and performance improvements along with new features (ie, native mouse support) should make a manual 3.2 update worthwhile
Ok Thanks, I will update to 3.2 and let me see what magic it does.

Firestick 5x 2nd Gen won't update

I have a firestick 2nd Gen software version 5x but it won't update
It checks for updates but won't update. Even spoken to Amazon and theyve said it requires a number of updates but they didn't know what to suggest.
I've factory reset the device a number of times and hasn't helped.
Is there any way to manually update it.
I want it to run v6x or7 if possible so that I can run the latest wolf launcher and launcher manager.
TIA

You wont get a 2nd generation to update to fireos 6 or 7 via OTA (over the air updates) .
You can however update the firmware if you unlock the bootloader install twrp and flash the latest prerooted firmware of your choice .
Unless amazon are willing to send you a replacement it is the only way to successfully bring your OS upto date im afraid .

Has anyone done this and can speak to performance?
I have a 1st gen fire tv (not stick) and wondering if it's useful to update and then possibly debloat. Or if this would ultimately be a lot of work for having bad performance in the end.
/edit
Sorry for hijacking this thread, came to the forums looking for something else. Saw the thread, had the thought and just asked. I've tried to read up on rooting and it seems my old firetv (fully upgraded to 5.2.7.4) isn't rootable without soldering so it seems I won't be updating anyway.

Yes i have done this with several sticks and the update works perfectly, i had a stick stuck on version 5.2.6.8 and successfully flashed 5.2.7.2 r1 then 5.2.7.3 . I cannot say the same for montoya 1st geneartion as it would need to be on one of the very lowest firmwares for this to work .

Thanks for that I didnt know that was the case.
They won't send me a replacement I've spoken to them already about it as its out of warranty.
Would you recommend rooting it etc?
Is it worth the headache?
I've rooted phones before but never a firestick

Samsung Galaxy Tag A7 doesn't detect USB-To-DVI video grabber device anymore

Hello guys,
i was using a USB-To-DVI video Capture Card device to use my tablet as an external monitor.
It was working just fine using an app called "USB Video" from the PlayStore using the pre-installed Android 11 on it.
I recently made an update to the latest version: SAOMC_SM-T500_OXM_EUX_RR_0005 EUX/EUX via online update, so my unit it up to date with the latest firmware on it (state: 2021-10-06).
Unfortunately, since i updated to the latest version, the USB-To-DVI device is not detected anymore. Neither the application i used, nor any other similar application did work anymore, so expect it to be related to the firmware update. Seems like UVC devices are blocked now?!
Do you know about anything that would explain this change? Or is there anything else going wrong here? Any help would be appreciated!
EDIT: A connected Logitech C920 works fine.
P.S. I was also thinking about a downgrade via Odin, but i was not able to install any previous firmware to the device. Neither any earlier Android 11, nor any Android 10 version for the T500.

Airtel XStream SmartBox Firmware Upgraded to hsw4026atl-3.1.6-220211

Hi All,
Earlier I have uninstalled the AirTel XStream Application from the XStream using the steps provided last year in youtube. However my Airtel XStream SmartBox Firmware Upgraded to hsw4026atl-3.1.6-220211 and I can't stop or remove the XStream Application. Even the ADB Services couldn't be enabled from Developer Option. I have tried to connect the ADB shell to my Xtream SmartBox, the connection is refused by the Android TV as the services aren't working as expected. Please suggest whether we have an option to flash the Android TV with a different Android version or downgrade the software.
Note: I have performed to reset as well as wipe data/factory reset. It wasn't helpful as the old version doesn't exist in the device. Please suggest some tools to flash the device to any other Android TV Firmware using USB or LAN Cable.
@kkarthik3 I am having the same problem Even my dth cable was disconnected for the airtel XStream box
At first, the tv screen went blank, google voice assistant was working I could open the device settings and playstore too but I can't play youtube or any other application only playstore.
I tried reformating but nothing worked yet
the possible solution I think is to downgrade the firmware update for the STB looking into the internet but no luck yet.
firmware is listed here but couldn't download it

Yes There is no other options till now to prevent locking again ant you can't turn on usb debugging
People who are facing issue with this latest version, can you please post a video showing what exactly is the issue you are facing because my setup box is undated to the latest version but still I am able to use it for other applications without recharge.
I am not sure whether the setup box I am using will start giving issue as you guys are facing in anytime in future or issue has been bypased or taken care of by me unknowingly.
My stb is on 3.1.6 fw version as op mentioned. I was getting restart stb to finish update prompts repeatedly yesterday which i was skipping thinking it will again lock the device but my family members restarted it on their own and it's still working for now.

In that case mi box or firestick might turn out to be better proposition. What do u think?
One can sell off locked xstream box to new user who want to use with recharge.
