Need Help to get ROM for A501 3G - Acer Iconia A500

Hallo,
where can I download the original Acer HC 3.0.1 or better the new HC 3.2 for the A501 3G (German).
I need it to reinstall the original Firmware because the Mods are without Support for the build in 3G Modem an I have no backup of my original ROM ...
Thanks

3.0.1 used to be available in acer support downloads, but today isn't there. I think that they're sort of uploading the new version, so I'm afraid you have to wait some days. However here on XDA forum someone posted A501 rom image, so you might try to search for it.

a501 Custom Rom Help/Info

Hi all.
Just wondering if anybody can tell me what files would be needed for the 501 to get the 3g working.
The custom roms are a load better then the std rom. Would be willing to try and get a custom a501 rom a try just not sure what parts would be needed. Am currently doing some reading to try and get it myself but any help from any dev would be great.
Have not had a lot to do with roms but i have done my own kernels before for my DHD.

I have 501 and no ROM whith 3G
Thank
dukker :
Yes so 3G no working
thanks, i wil test an 500 rom on my 501
@ dukker,
You can use Taboonay rom or Virtuous_Galaxy for A501, but no 3G.
I hope soon there will be custom roms for A501.
Thanks
I will be hopefully helping someone start on a kernal update for a501's in about a weeks time... apparently this will work for 3g simcards but OC/UV features wont be available.. better than a poke in the eye with a sharp stick tho

Hey guys
Does anyone have news about Roms and built in 3G for A501 ?
Taboonay rom works with internal 3g.
Some problems (tab restart) when you switch on 3g if you are in flight mode.
If you use it always on no prob.
I hear at now is a problem of A501 3.2 version from Acer.

Is there a 3.2 Rom for EU Xoom

Is there a 3.2 rom for EU Xoom´s.
I just Got my 3.1 update (was about time) but I want the 3.2 with full 3g speed.
so what can I do?
To bad I just cant install XP on it.
doesn't Tiamat ROM work for eu?

I second this. Check out this thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1203635
It's the Tiamat 2.1 Hammerhead ROM. I've installed it on a 3.0.1 device after unlocking and rooting, I'm sure it will work for a 3.1 system too.
I have the Xoom 3G, but I believe this should work for the Wifi-only Xoom as well.

[kernel] New official kernel for A501 (HoneyComb 3.2) 2011/09/02

http://www.acer.co.uk/ac/en/GB/content/drivers
TABLET/ICONIA TAB/A501
In Documents is kernel source code from 3.2 for A501
This is helpful for making custom kernel?

i have 501 with stock 3.0.1 and only iconiaroot is customise of device ;-)
i'm ready to test new rom, what i have to do?
After testing the new official 3.2 kernel src, I find out that the H.264 video decoding is not working. Apart from that, others are working flawlessly.
Seems that there are something wrong in video decoding in this kernel.
there a lot more wrong with that source

Seems that using back the 3.1 source + 3.2 patch is the best match

[Q] Acer Iconia A500 3G

Hey guys,
I want to buy one of these Acer Iconia A500 tablets 32GB version, but it is WiFi only and since I live in Iran and it is not that common here, I want to know if I can use an external 3g to use GPRS/EDGE on this tablet.
Thanks in advance!
It seems to be possible with taboonay custom rom
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1138051
Never tried though.

[Q] Problem with Taboonay 3.0.1

Hey folks,
I am using this [ROM][ICS4.0.3] Taboonay 3.0.1 (28/02/2012)
on my Iconia a501.
Works really great. Fast and smooth... great job.
I know this Rom is based on the a500 Rom.
So my 3g is not working (or should it?)... anyway, is there a way to get it working?
I already installed the test_a501.zip
Thanks for all answers.
Got exactly the same problem. Installed A501 Patch but doesn't seem to have any effect. Is there anything else to do in order to make it work ?
+1
Need update plz
There are 3 things you can do to try and resolve this problem.
A) make Acer release the official update
2) hack into Acers systems and find a leak for a501
C) learn how to code and fix it

The current ICS roms only support the a500 at this time. This is most likely kernel related and rom related.
The "fix" zips, were only for testing purposes. If people would read the thread, they would've seen the fix's didn't work. Now you have a somewhat modified kernel on your tab which may or may not give you issues.
Until Acer releases or "leaks" an ICS a501 rom, we are stuck with 3.2.1.
Ok,
First of all, thanks bfranklin for your smashing proposal...
I thought the 3g modem in the asus tab and the modem of Iconia tab are identic and it is possible to use that driver for the a501 for example.
try to take the scripts and drivers form loak 3.0.1 and put in the same folders on your ROM
