My wifi does more then I flash with update acer

Hello everyone,
I flashed my A500 with the update from Acer, when I flash my system.img, wifi do not want to work.
What should I do?
In advance thank you.

you need to copy the 2 files from update.acer.zip\system\lib\module to your tablet and preserve the permissions they originally have... restart the tablet and wifi will work...

I put that in the tablet, I'm sorry for my noob questions ....

And last question, what are the permissions I need to apply to these files?
And thank you again for your reply.

I found it good. thank you again

Where did you guys find the update? I didn't find one on Acer's website. Thanks

Rom request - Gateway a60

Hi Everyone
I've read alot about the gateway a60 being just a rebranded Acer Iconia 500.
I can confirm that the downgrade/root/flashing iconia ROM worked.
I Was wondering if anyone had the original Gateway braded software, just in case I have to return my tablet?
Thanks

This post should be in Q&A Section but here is your answer.. there are several other post do a search in this forum .
Good Luck

I have been looking too but have come to terms with the fact that this tablet is not going anywhere -)
Please do post if you find it as I would be interested in it too.
Cheers and Good Luck

@Erica
Thanks. I thought because I was asking about a specific rom that this would be the right place to post, Thanks for the heads up.
@smishra
Follow the link that Erica posted. Looks like using the acer rom might not void the waranty. Afterall, I ran the acer update on my tablet WITHOUT rooting it.
Afterwards I was able to root it with all the acer methods/tools.

The hardware on the tablet is not compatible. That is why Acer sells two tablets one for windows and one for android.
