DocumentListEntry.updateMedia() exception: Media cannot be updated

[GoogleCodeExporter]

What steps will reproduce the problem?
1. Use code from "Replacing a document's content" guide at
http://code.google.com/apis/documents/docs/2.0/developers_guide_java.html#Updati
ngReplaceContent

What is the expected output? What do you see instead?
java.lang.UnsupportedOperationException: Media cannot be updated
at com.google.gdata.data.media.MediaEntry.updateMedia(MediaEntry.java:151)

What version of the product are you using? On what operating system?
GDocs-Java/2.0.1 GData-Java/1.35.1(gzip)

Please provide any additional information below.
The code worked 2 days ago, now throwing exception, I tried several
document types - .doc, .xls all of them throwing exception.
I noticed that gdata-java-client version 1.35.1 just came out 2 days ago -
was server codebase broken in this release? I tried the code with 1.35.1 as
well (originally code was working with 1.35 up to 2 days ago) and exception
is still there.

I have same problem, here is my code:

DocsService myService = new DocsService("my-id-here");
myService.setUserCredentials("my-email", "my-password");
System.out.println("Logged in google: "+myService.getServiceVersion());
URL docsFeedURL = new
URL("http://docs.google.com/feeds/folders/private/full/folder:my-folder-id-here"
);
DocumentListEntry documentEntry = new DocumentListEntry();
documentEntry.setFile(new File("test.txt"), "text/plain");
documentEntry.setTitle(new PlainTextConstruct("test.txt"));
documentEntry = myService.insert(docsFeedURL, documentEntry);
System.out.println("File uploaded: "+documentEntry.getResourceId());
myService.getRequestFactory().setHeader("If-Match", "*");
documentEntry.setMediaSource(new MediaByteArraySource("updated 
content".getBytes(),
"text/plain"));
documentEntry.updateMedia(false);
System.out.println("File updated: "+documentEntry.getResourceId());

Here is output:

Logged in google: GDocs-Java/2.0.1 GData-Java/1.35.1(gzip)
File uploaded: document:0AS15q5biv9gkZGdqcms2d3FfMmdwYnpmc2R2

I'm using the google calendar api and I'm getting the same exception:
java.lang.UnsupportedOperationException: Entry cannot be updated

Is there any update on this?

i have similar problem about updating the position of a media in a playlist, 
using 
gdata-core-1.0: 

my code:
String videoEntryUrl = "http://gdata.youtube.com/feeds/api/videos/AWpsOqh8q0M";
VideoEntry videoEntry = service.getEntry(new URL(videoEntryUrl), 
VideoEntry.class);

PlaylistEntry playlistEntry = new PlaylistEntry(videoEntry);
service.insert(new URL(playlistUrl), playlistEntry);    

playlistEntry.setPosition(0);
playlistEntry.update();
