[hessville]

Has anyone installed the android market after the 4.0.3 ics update?
Is the procedure the same as when done to gingerbread?
Would appreciate any feedback!

Thanks

It is working with 4.0.3 but everything is so slow that you don't want to use it anymore.
I am getting 3 or 4 times wait or exit from the browser for every page like www.msn.com or similar.
And forget about streaming! You need to download or play low resolution video.

Anyone have different exipence as I have? Can you get page with "Wait" or Exit message?

Let me know maybe I am doning something wrong.

Are you talking about an airpad 7p? If so, the current ICS version (4.0.3) that is posted on the forum is good, and should not have the problems that you listed. If you are, do a factory reset, or reload the OS and it should fix your problem.

If you are talking about the pre-release ICS version for the XL, then there are the problems that you indicated. Reinstall the Gingerbread version and it will fix your problem.

I installed the  full Market on my 7P running 4.0.3 with no problems using the method described on Tuicemans website.

Does the procedure outlined in this thread wipe the AirPad? Will previously installed apps (and their data files) need to be reinstalled?

Duh! Not sure how I missed that!

By updating the operating system you will loose all data and apps. Backup everything before proceeding.

I do have to wonder about a system that wipes out a user's programs and data just to upgrade the OS.  I can't imagine Microsoft or Apple having similar similar warnings. Personally, I'm just glad that I have nothing I can't afford to lose on my tablet ---- yet.

this is something that happens with all tablets when u reflash the OS.

I get that... The biggest clue should be steps #8 & 9 in the procedure:

          8 )   A message will be displayed about a forced format - choose yes.
          9 )   Select yes again at the "are you sure" prompt.

My point was that even with backups in place, this is a PITA that would never fly with other operating systems.

Just wondering? I downloaded Gingerbread for my AirPad fine. I can not open the LiveSuit.exe? I click to open but it flashes and then nothing?

I experienced the same problem while installing last night and I realised that it happens only when you try to click the third time. After some time I realised that restarting the pc allows two more chances and restart if you have to have more tries.

Hope that works for you too.

Has this ever been made to work with the older versions of the Airpad?
