Help acer a500 freezes on acer screen

Just ones that I find on android xda under stock Roms I've tried ics ones and I've tried honeycomb ones, and all of this started after my mother was already using it, it just shut off one day and wouldn't start back up...

I guess you've not tried the deodexed/pre-rooted stock ROM's? Do you know what version of Android you were on before? I don't think that you would be able to use a Honeycomb update.zip if you were on Ice Cream Sandwich (not possible to go backwards).

I tried the rom from the unBRICK your ACER A500 ICONIA TABLET!!! Restore to 1.141.07 OTA UPDATE!!! - PPCGeeks and it still comes up with no loading bar...

I don't think it is as simple as just changing the name to update.zip and trying to get the A500 to flash it.
 
I don't know what a deodexed rom is or where to find it, an with the unbrick I followed the instructions given and I don't get a progress bar when flashing
 
so any new help regarding this dead android tablet? as my only problem is how to recover my cpuid as its merely impossible.. i never use usb when i was on HC so i have no luck getting Cpuid or sbk .. the only thing i hope that someday you can make like odin with this tablet

Changelog
v1.09
18/06/2012
- Afterota now detects if there are multiple android devices connected to the computer.
If so, all flashing is disabled. There can be only one . .
v1.08
17/06/2012
- This update should resolve the isuese that users experienced when they were running
custom ics roms in combination with hc bootloader ( tested with hc bootloader + flexreaper )
- Removed the warning and exclusion when kernel returns bootloader version 0.03.11-ICS.
These were excluded in Afterota v1.07 ( see changelog v1.07 for more info )
- added v8 ics bootloaders by Scrilax to the package
v1.07
04/06/2012
- Afterota should work for all models : A500, A501, G100W
- new method for retrieving information
- when kernel returns bootloader version 0.03.11-ICS all flashing is disabled
this situation could apear when a user is on bl 0.03.01-HC with a SOD patched
kernel, these kernels are unable to start APX mode
- program lets you install ics bootloader on HC roms now
the v7 ics bootloader can start Hc roms as long they are not stock ( CWM HC roms )
so a user currently on Hc could install the Ics bootloader + a recovery
and during reboot into recovery imeditatly flash a custom cwm Ics rom ( eg. flexreaper)
or go back to Hc by flashing a cwm Hc rom. ( this has been tested and proven to work )
- program layout simplified
- winxp and vista are back in the running
