I am a complete newbie at this and I updated my A501 a long time ago. I would like to reload the factory ROM that came on my AT&T A501. Is there anywhere that the files can be downloaded? Acer tells me to jump up a rope! I just want to go back to an unrooted AT&T ROM. Is this possible or am I in too deep? Thanks for any help!

Hello everyone!
I've had my mytouch 3g since preorders were available and I rooted my phone the day the first root was released. Since that day, I have been though many of moded roms and other system modifications that I would like to "reset" my phone the way I first bought it. Is this possible? To completely clear the memory, unroot it, revert the radio, and get the stock tmobile rom?
Thanks in advance!

Hello, rooting is very easy. Just follow the instructions here :
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1171089
However, make sure you follow according to your model, mine is 7500 hence follow the 7500 instructions.
I cant be bothered waiting for the official update, so I've decided to root and install Overcome Series ROM here:

If you're very concern with warranty void, you can still unroot and return back to original stock 3.1 ROM, as if it is brand new from the shop(scroll down abit in the first link above)
Hope this helps...
Rooting is easy. Just look in the sticky in 10.1 development section! I rooted my 10.1 3g tab using the update.zip from stock recovery. It took about 3-4 minutes..Good luck!

Hello,
I currently have the Acer Iconia A501, locked to Rogers (ok it is no longer locked).
From what i can see, the current Build is "Acer_A501_4.042.01_PA_ROG". Which is Android version 3.2.
Does anyone else have this build?
I have done my fair share of flashing. I own a Samsung Galaxy S, and a Samsung Galaxy Tab 7"), and have custom roms on both.
As i don't have CWM on this build, i want to back up this build first.
Any suggestions on what i'd need to do to do this backup first? Or if i can find a copy of it somewhere... Highly unlikely i'll ever go back to this version (as i purchased this used and the person i bought it from isn't calling me back).
I checked the OTA Full Package thread, and this build isn't listed in there. I would be happy to even provide a copy of the package if i knew how before i install a custom rom on it.
Basically, this is what i'm looking for.
1. Help on how to back up this build.
2. Would installing a euro version of the a501 be ok? (i'm sure it is, considering both my Galaxy S and Tab both have the Euro versions on it).
Other than the above, i have a good idea on which ROM i'm going to install. Revert to 3.01, root, install cwm, then install a 3.2 ROM.
I'm certainly looking forward to this as i've only had the Galaxy Tab 7" as my tab for a year and this 10.1" is a change for me. I've never experienced HC until the last week
Thanks!
me too
I am also looking for a Canadian A501 rom From rodgers... Let me know if you come across one thanks.
I ended up flashing back to 3.01 and rooting so I no longer have it.
I'm now on Alexandra iii 1.1. Check the Dev forum for it. Works great!
Sure id love to get a copy of the rogers one again as I couldn't make a backup of it. Mainly for testing 4g speeds.

Hi. I rooted my Tab 10.1 P7500, installed CWM and installed Overcome ROM 10.1.
Very happy with it. But, I have the oil slick problem now and again. Nothing major but need to return it to Vodafone for a replacement in case it gets worse and warranty is up. Now this is where I get stuck. Which stock ROM do I down load to revert back to. Currently, my baseband version is P7500BUKH1. Will P7500XXKI1 ROM do the trick or brick?? Will this also remove the root? Help!Thanks
Any one..please
