The Unofficially Official Acer Firmware Thread​
Wow it's been a long time!
I thought I'd rewrite the OP considering so much has changed in the firmware department recently....
This thread serves to solve two large problems:
1) Acer do not offer via their servers (which changed names and caused this thread to be created originally, but none of the files were deleted) all the files we tablet enthusiasts may need. For example, they do not have any unbrick procedures hosted.
2) Vache's FTP is currently unavailable.
The solution is this thread! It is a list of every firmware file I have come across - and some others. Some of these files are leaks; others are official updates. Either way they're here. I am in the process of migrating these files over to three servers to offer them via torrents. By using torrents the most important / popular files will have the best download speed as more people will be downloading them. Remember: the more peers the better!
I currently have one or two seedboxes sharing these files along with my home server (meek upload speed, but still there nonetheless). I will be pushing these torrrent files up here so that you can all access old files again. however, we no longer have some files as they were on Vache's FTP. If a link is dead, and you can fulfil the request, please PM me! Credit will be given!
If you download over Torrent, PLEASE help and seed. My home internet is currently handling most of the uploading for these ROMs which isn't the best thing. If you have a seedbox with bandwidth you can contribute please PM me and I will send you the folder of torrent files so you can support the cause. Thank you!
Good luck, and happy tablet hacking,
Chris.
PS: We need more files. Many are missing from the collection. If you have ANY of the files listed which do not have working download links please PM me or post here. We need as many of these files as possible for completion's sake!
**OLD POST BELOW**
It seems Acer have decided to be *really kind* and revoke access to the Firmware ROMs via the futuredial links. Also for personal reasons Vache has had to take his site down. These two factors together mean that we have download access to a LOT less files than before which is causing issues for newbies (principally) as they do not have the files downloaded already.
So the goal is simple: get somewhere to gather the files, upload what we have and make them available to the rest of the community. We need two things:
1) People with files (initially just firmware zips and EUU packages. We could store rooting tools etc. too later on) that can be reuploaded (no viruses / tweaks please. We want stock files for the rest of the community). Perhaps we should have them pre-decrypted (takes a minute or so for the uploader and saves time and effort for downloaders)
2a) Somewhere to upload them too. Whatever this place is should have sufficient bandwidth for the quantity of downloads and support the storage of files up to ~800MB each (ie for EUU packages)
2b) Seedbox(es). If #2 isn't feasible (for whatever reason), perhaps offering the files via torrent (and a private, dedicated tracker?? Why not? ) would save bandwidth and provide speed for downloaders
If you have either of these three things to contribute, please let me know by replying to this topic. I don't mind people having ads on #2 to support their server costs as long as they are SFW and without popups (we all hate popups )
I hope this will be a useful project. It's not the most exciting but we need a fast and resilient way of distributing these files. Over the past few weeks it has become evident that Acer does not want to support us in getting firmware files so we'll have to do it ourselves
All firmware links go in the post below. If you have any links feel free to post them and I'll add them!
EDIT: Although a central repository would be nice, we don't need one immediately. Most, if not all, of the useful files are below. Enjoy
LIST OF FILES
Please note that none of these files are rooted and/or tweaked! They are stock Android ROMs from Acer and designed for stock recovery!
Flashing them will remove custom recovery and/or custom bootloader! You will be fully stock! Update zips may not install if you have modified your device in any way. If unsure use a full package! You need an EUU package only if your device is bricked as it will be completely wiped clean in the process!
NOTE: For all ftp:// links you can just use any modern web browser!
NOTE 2: Please ensure your MicroSD is formatted to FAT32 if you are using any update zips!!! This is very important!!! Also check that your file name is update.zip and NOT update or update.zip.zip or Update.zip. The ONLY correct spelling is update.zip - all lower case with ONE extension!
NOTE 3: Many of these files have now been migrated to torrents and seedboxes. Feel free to use those links! I have confirmed with Moscow Desire (our resident moderator on this forum) and he says he is cool with this distribution method Also feel free to seed if you have server resources!
HOW TO READ THE FILE NAMES
For example: Acer_A500_4.010.38_7.006.01_COM_GEN1
Acer_A500: Device Name
016.01: Your current version (you can check it in Settings -> About)
016.08: Updated version
COM_GEN1: Device region (generally). Depends on ROM. When doing updates you must keep this the same for the update to work correctly. When using a full package you can use any region but certain languages may not be available.

I can provide full stock ACER A500 ICS roms , nothing changed , SO STOCK = kernel , bootloader , recovery , odexed.........no root hack, nothing !!!
SO if you flash these you are full stock with locked bootloader and stock recovery !!!
Call it "update.zip" and place it on your external SD and enter recovery.
I just need a place to upload them.
These are the roms I have:
Acer_AV041_A500_1.031.00_WW_GEN1
Acer_AV041_A500_1.033.00_PA_CUS1
Acer_AV041_A500_1.041.00_WW_CUS1
Already uploaded to collective server.
Acer_AV041_A500_1.054.00_WW_GEN1
I also have HC 3.2 rom Acer_A500_7.006.01_COM_GEN1 full stock but it doesn't contain the HC bootloader , so you need to flash that with the stuff from the guide in my sig.
I only upload if someone needs it.
And SD_PB_G100W_1.007.03_COM_GEN1 for the PAckard Bell HC 3.0.1 original
Let me know if you are you want these. Maybe I can use the collective server but I don't want to overload as almost all my roms are hosted there.
EDIT:
I also have these (found them on my home server backup)
HC 3.1
Acer_A500_4.010.41_COM_GEN1
Acer_A500_4.010.42_EMEA_GEN3
And HC3.2.1
PB_G100W_4.010.01_COM_GEN1

Sounds fantastic, good Sir
I'll compile a list in the second post of what we have and also what we want. Eventually it would be great to have all the files aggregated in one place (ie over one set of servers or one bittorrent tracker) but for now we need to see what we have
EDIT: Added the link to the links post. The other files would be fantastic and I'll add them too
EDIT 2: Fantastic! Okay you can upload them to a500bootloaderflash.tk over FTP if you want to and I'll have them there for now until we have something better. Otherwise the collective if they don't mind (better for me but I don't mind tbh)
Here's a 501 3.2 A501_4.027.15_COM_GEN1
http://d-h.st/zHb
I have some 3.2.1's for the 501 also. Will upload them as soon as I can.

Thanks MD! I'll add them to the list right away
I assume they're all decrypted?
EDIT: Added If I don't check this thread again tonight I'll look at it again tomorrow morning (BST ) and update the list with more
Some files here : https://docs.google.com/open?id=0B_bko9M1FTYzY3o4VVU1Y0s5SnM
I have only 30Go on GDrive, for 60Go total. Currently uploading all files to a new ftp, should be up tomorrow.
WRT: 2b. I wouldn't mind seeing a few files. My desktop is on effectively 24/7 and i dont have a data cap of any kind. What I am limited by is hard drive space and upload speed, which, while sufficient, could be better.

Sounds okay but upload speed is definitely an issue. If your upload speed is 1.2MB/s and you have three downloaders suddenly an issue arises. Especially if you want to upload something yourself. I'll let you know if we need more storage but we should be ok for now

I think I already found all the useful files there Maybe we'll make separate lists for different Acer devices later on (ie A70x)
More files though = fantastic! Thanks so much for your support on this

Hi, I have a post in the QA section as well, but For some reason I can't get my new tablet to unlock (came with ICS).
I should be able to do one of the full rom packages from any HC version to get back and unlock like that correct?
Since everybody is now downloading the new official jellybean update, and there is only hotfile slow downloads, I will put fast direct mirrors.
Also if anyone has other mirrors I can add them to the thread.
VERY FAST MIRROR:

Here you go guys, 7 seeds already
OpenOTA is a project I started on 10/27/2014 that will hopefully change how users get OTA Updates. OOTA allows a developer to "Self-Host" their ROM's updates and also allow users to get them, over the air. A neat feature of OOTA is that the ROM Update does not need to be hosted on a web server you own, you can use d-h.st, mediafire, 4shared, or whatever hosting provider you like , it doesn't matter where!
Here is how it works: The user's ROM, on boot, will check for an update, if there is one, the user will be prompted to download. The prompt is once per boot, and once per OOTA app launch. When the user chooses to download, it will open the users browser to the download the update.
Why did I do this you might ask? To keep the apk file as small as possible.
Why integrate the download when we can just use the web browser that is built in?
This also allows developers with limited bandwidth use other hosting providers.
I hope some developers find this app very useful as I made it to be open to everyone!
Please let me know what you guys think, give me ideas, tell me where I can improve.
I currently use it in my Custom ROM AdvancedStock7 for the LG Optimus F3 from Virgin Mobile but the app itself is compatible with android 4.0+
