Guest sionyboy Posted October 27, 2011 Report Share Posted October 27, 2011 Installed yesterday on my new archos, didn't play around with the firmware that was on device (3. 2.22) I've had no issues with the market since the update, and device seems a lot snappier when multi-tasking.

Guest Paul Posted October 27, 2011 Report Share Posted October 27, 2011 Excellent! Promoted to news. Still no vibrate. :( P Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest evad Posted October 27, 2011 Report Share Posted October 27, 2011 Still no vibrate. :( And still no Polish on-screen keyboard layout (despite I reported through Archos email support) :( Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest sionyboy Posted October 27, 2011 Report Share Posted October 27, 2011 What is with the lack of haptic feedback? Seems like such a strange feature to remove/disable. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest evad Posted October 27, 2011 Report Share Posted October 27, 2011 Not sure if that's placebo effect or has something been really improved with 3.2.61 but I reckon now tablet eats less battery when idle and doesn't stay hot in lower-left corner of the back. Did anyone notice same thing with their 80 G9 before? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Woshmistro Posted October 27, 2011 Report Share Posted October 27, 2011 (edited) The update also fixed the Market problem I had, but the tablet still doesn't show on the Market website so I can't send apps to it still, which is a bit odd... Could it be because I kept the account as @googlemail.com rather than switch to @gmail.com? Or did anyone with @gmail.com have the same problem?

Guest DiscoFred78 Posted October 27, 2011 Report Share Posted October 27, 2011 Try removing the google account, clearing everything and then adding it again, might work. Which market do you end up with? Mine looks exactly the same as the one I downloaded as a fix. But I didn't remove it before upgrading, so I am unsure what the new market should look like. :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest todoleo Posted October 27, 2011 Report Share Posted October 27, 2011 Apps I couldn't install in the Market are now installable. wifi seems to be quicker at reconnecting too. I'm liking this firmware update! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I believe the version most people were using to fix the market issues was 3.1.5. They look identical, so I'm not sure what changes were added between the two point releases. Hope this helps!
