Hey everyone I'm looking to see if I can get a couple of people running none acer based roms to upload the gpsconfig.xml file that is located in /system/etc/gps. I'm looking to see if there is a variation between the acer rom and transformer, galaxy based roms.
Here are two of the files you requested. One is from a stock 3.1 Rom, and the other from a stock 3.2 Rom (labeled accordingly).

Awesome thank you for those I will have a look at these, but I am mainly looking for ones that are not Acer. Mainly galaxy and transformer. I'm trying to find why other roms other than Acer have better GPS. Thank you.

As a special forum for the A501 is still missing, I am asking here:
Is there any custom rom with HC 3.1 or 3.2 that also supports the 3G modem in the A501?
Acer is making fools out of us not providing an update to 3.1. That's ridiculous and unacceptable... I am so angry, you won't believe it.
there is no ROM for A501 here... sorry
I wonder how people get A501, in thailand it's not available.... yet...
Well, in Germany it is already available - even in smaller stores but also in the big ones, like Amazon.
I see
We will have it normally next week here... but anyway. I don't want get bored with 2 sim cards and 2 bills
I wish you luck to find asap what you look for, but you need to wait that the dev hand on a A501

Nothing as yet. Why don't you try PMing one of the ROM makes in the Dev section and asking them nicely?
They'll need a dump of an A501 ROM to do much, though.
Thanks for your nice idea.
I will try to contact them.
Definetely +1 for a 3.1 or 3.2 rom for A501. Moreover, I'm here to help by providing anything I can from my A501. Plus, I tried several roms on my HTC Desire, so I hope I can be helpful in something (unfortunately I never cooked a rom).

Hi all from the land of oz!
I was hoping a member of the community could please point me in the direction of a custom rom for an Acer Iconia 501 that has 3G support using the inbuilt sim card port!
If there isnt one i'm happy to try a software dump using my tablet so maybe we could get the ball rolling!
Thankyou!

No ROMs yet. There's a system dump somewhere around here, but no dev showed up yet.
some roms are based on the new a501 3.2 update that just came out, but none of them supports 3g though.. strange thing

I think that all the 3.2 roms are, as of now, ports of other tabs' roms. None of them are based on A501 3.2 update AFAIK.

The roms in the dev forum are FROM ACER.. That is what you asked..
THE ANSWER TO the above is NO.. THERE IS NO Released update from acer for the a500 tablet.There is no full Officially released ICS Rom of any kind from Acer for out tablet. the leak is as close as you will get right now.. acer says mid April is when they push to ics will start. If you want your tablet stock WAIT..
ok ... i want the close rom that there is to the stock
so i think i need to wait for these four rom's

People does not simply give answer without making some kind of "where is waldo game"
here your answer dude
Have the driver ADB ready for your tablet
FIRMWARE LEAK STOCK
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1524736
I updated it with the stock recovery (dunno if you can do it with the custom one... have to check for this to be sure)
ROOT WITH
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1546593
DO NOT INSTALL FACELOCK , it's not yet working totally
DO NOT INSTALL ACER RING (up to you but it's really useless...)
IF YOU WANT change to RW the /system (for modify some stuff)
an application will be installed with the rooting one,
normally it's will be the first app on your tablet,
1 - click on it,
2 - then press first option and second
reboot your tablet
redo exactly the step 1 and 2
then open root explorer and you normally are able to change /system to RW
end of story. have a nice day
PS:
Why the leak one and not custom rom
well I never got any SOD problem, or anything else than CUSTOM got...
CUSTOM are good it's a fact, but for sure the "Official" rom will probably got less bug, I use to have taboonay before, I didn't go back to stock because not satified, just because I wanted to... that's it.
DEV are doing a great job and that have to be said

I think you need to work on your reading comprehension a bit. Erica quite clearly said "RELEASED", and she's 100% right. There is currently NO officially released ICS update for the A500. We know it's coming, and we know roughly when, but it's not RELEASED yet.

Reading comprehension owns you...where did i dispute what she posted ?
the links posted support what she stated....
although they will be releasing it, something she did not mention, the link to Acer gives a est time line ...

HI-larious!
I want to update my tab to ICS or even JB if possible.
I've read a couple of guides and threads of what to do and what's not working.
I already did my research. I just want to make sure..
What's the custom / stock(if its performance is better than HC) ROM that is nearly perfectly working?
and where can I get the stock ICS? :\ I can't seem to see it. (sorry)
and is there an ICS / JB Rom that has its camera working?

Hi I suggest that you go here.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1831040
Get your stock ICS ROM from samfirmware.com and check the development section for custom ROMs, there are a few that are stock but deodexed ready for modding yourself if you so wish, our you can get tasks ROM which is tweaked.

thank you so much!
wait. is this rom any good? http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1813651
I've read that there's a face unlock so... I assume both of the camera is working?
sorry I'm just being extra cautious. don't want my tab to get brick or something. :x
again thank you!
They are all based on official Sammy releases, so they will have fully working cameras.

Hi everyone!
Team IconiaHD is proud to present a KitKat rom for the Acer Iconia A200!
Since there is no A200 section here on XDA we have posted a thread on Acertabletforum instead, hope it's ok to link there!
http://www.acertabletforum.com/forum/acer-a200-roms/10043-rom-a200-omnirom-kitkat-4-4-2-a.html
Thanks to:
- the Omnirom team
- pjsports for the A500 JB kernel and device tree
- and everyone else that has been working on the Iconia A500 / A200!
All sources are on Github: https://github.com/IconiaHD
Can you flash this rom to the acer a500 as well? Couldnt find any notes in the forum link or anyone that attempted to do so

No the image for A200 will not run on an A500. For one thing the A500 needs a different kernel. It would not be very difficult to port it if someone wants to try. But I can't really do it myself since I don't have an A500 to test things on.

Hey man I have an A500 and am interested in helping you all test a A500 port if you are intending on creating one. Well the kitkat rom on a500 is not to my liking so maybe we can create one more together

Well I think it could be close as there are only some graphical problems. Other than that everything basic seems to work already :victory:
