Did you buy this on Amazon? Find your order and click Available Actions, Return Items. You can print what you need to send it back for a refund. I did this and received a full refund within a week. Good luck!

Received mine today, nothing really to complain about as yet. Set up nicely on google, amazon etc. Wifi worked first try. Touch screen is as good as most resistive. Several apps would not install but that is rather common on the cheaper rigs it seems.Case looks a little cheap around the seams but nice looking rig and like the power off/on button.

1/14/13 @ 10:07PM EDT - Don't have the tablet as yet, but will be trying to see if something like those is compatible first. So far, none of the one's you've mentioned work on my pitiful android phone (LG Optimus Elite). ETA on tablet = 1/15/13 late evening.

I just got it a couple months ago. I can't imagine it wouldn't have to be updated. I am really pleased with it. Sorry I can't be more helpful.

I found this:http://www.slatedroid.com/topic/11775-cruz-reader-only-step-by-step-for-update-root-and-setcpu/Haven't tried it on my R101 yet, but sure would like to hear from anyone who has followed these instructions with success - then give it a try myself

I think the company quit supporting it. I keep getting a server down whenever I try to update it...otherwise I'd recommend it. If not having portability isn't an issue, I'd suggest a system like Ouya. It's an android based unit with a game controller if android is what you're looking for.

I agree, it's just the phone. It would notate the station as well if it were included I would believe. I am not so sure about recommending this phone any longer. They have yet to give out 4.3 or 4.4 for mine and I have the first gen one still. Ended up buying Nexus 5 to stay up to date with everything. Great idea, but Asus is being lazy when it comes to keeping their product up to date as far as I have seen (or haven't due to no updates to later OS.)

Google offers free updates.......cause Android is free. Now whether you get updates depends completely on the manufacturer of your device. Since Android is used on many different devices it's up to each specific manufacturer to adapt the Android OS to their specific devices and maintain them. It is completely at the manufacturer's discretion. That being said, Asus has been very good about updating and running the latest and greatest version of Android possible on their tablets. How long they will keep supporting and updating the TF300, I don't know. Depends on the hardware requirements of future versions of Android and Asus. Since Android is open-source, there is always the possibility of outside sources supporting the TF300. A group like cyanogen is well known for supporting Android for many different devices.

There is no android support yet. I registered with the forum and from extensive discussion, it is on the way.

HTC said they will be releasing an upgrade to 2.2 in February. I am also - and anxiously - waiting for that. I read it is supposed to be a universal upgrade, i.e. not linked to any service providers. We'll see soon what it is...

It's hardly not. I googled it but only found http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2520124. Since it's an old model, it's lake of support from both vender and individual developers.

Dede, I don't think that T-Mobile even sell this one anymore. This one is being sold by a 3rd party and the software is extremely old by Android standards. If you want a decent Android tablet for about the same price then go directly to Google and purchase a new one from them. You can get a 7 inch from Google that does WiFi for only $229 and will be much faster have up to date software and have better resolution that this old tablet.

The answers given are good. The only thing I will add is that if you're buying a used one. I've found it simpler to load Android onto the tablet from scratch rather than try and figure out what someone else has loaded and what versions they tried to load.

What has Toshiba lacked in updates thus far? They have android phone, but they don't have an android tablet out yet to update .... unless I am missing something.

Sorry I don't know? Never heard of anything but the Android ones? There was an older model last year? But it was Android too?
