Indeed, Jennifer,
Acer did not give enough love for their A100 and A500 models.

The A100 is a decent device, and with 1 Gb of RAM, a dual-core CPU, and the
nVidia Tegra 2 GPU, it should have been possible for Acer to upgrade.
Unless there was a particular roadblock, such as insufficient storage.
My best suggestion is to keep the latest version of IceCat that would still
run on it, and then use at least an adblocker to prevent web sites from
hogging system resources and battery life.
Another option is to use the NoScript Anywhere extension. It uses
user-buildable whitelists. Fine-grained, subdomain-level whitelisting and
domain blocking requires use of about:config, and good knowledge of the
very advanced Vim text editor (Vim Touch for Android).
Yet another option is the uMatrix extension.
There is no system-level adblocker I know of that would block ads on the
mobile Internet for ICS. Ad-Away requires at least Android 4.1; DNS66 at
least Android 5.0.
A system-level adblocker that works on Wi-Fi, is the legacy Adblock Plus
app, available via F-Droid.

It is an Acer Iconia A100, and there is no official upgrade to jellybean
for it. There is on unofficial version of xda called Jellytime Sosei that
I tried, and it was very crashy and rebooted alot so I reset the device.

Post by Mart RootammJennifer,
can you update your tablet to at least Android 4.1 Jelly Bean?
What make and model is your tablet?

Since the new version of Firefox ESR is based on Quantum and since
Firefox Quantum mobile no longer works with Ice Cream Sandwich version of
Android, will the next version of Icecat Mobile drop support for ICS too?
Post by Mart RootammYes, I use an ICS tablet, and would like to continue using the latest
Ice Cat Mobile. So if there was no good reason for Firefox to drop support
for these tablets, could you continue support.
