Try flashing full package file instead of one package. There must be a problem flashing one package on your current ROM.

You need to go to recovery and wipe data/do a factory reset and also wipe cache and then reboot. IT will boot fine after that and you are ready to Enjoy you new upgraded firmware. :)

Help me...

i have my friend's Ace 5580 from yesterday(replacing my Galaxy SL)....am thinking to upgrade from froyo to GB...

just wanna clear a few things before i upgrade as the Odin is much different from my SL

1. first upgrade- should i need to flash a full package containing .ops, apboot, .csc, efs first if i want to go from froyo to GB(2.2.1 to 2.3.x)?? or just latest one package?? If a full package, what version??

2.suggest some best custom roms

thanks
[Galaxy Ace S5830 Android Development] droidtwoseven:
1. Use a full package file containing individual file since you are upgrading from 2.2 to 2.3

2. There a lot of ROM to choose from. It will depend on your taste. :D

happy flashing.
[Galaxy Ace S5830 Android Development] dalanik:
Hello everyone,

I have my wive's Ace and would like to flash different ROM. I updated it trough KIES to last available version in Europe, I believe Gingerbread 2.3.2. I then rooted it with upd_1.zip on SD card and now I have superuser program visible so I suppose it rooted OK.

Now, in instructions it says I can download ROM and put it on SD card and from built in recovery (power+middle button) flash it.

1) What I don't understand why CWM is needed? Can I flash customized ROMs from built in recovery or I need CWM???

2) What is the best ROM that is pretty stable but has better performance? I konw tastes are different but advice from someone who actualy used something is always welcome. So I don't want anything exotic, stability is my prime concern (since my wife is going to use it) :)

regards,

D.
[Galaxy Ace S5830 Android Development] droidtwoseven:
1. Using CWM is necessary for flashing custom ROMs. Use the CWM 5, the latest version or appropriate CWM for the custom ROM like CWM 4.

2. I prefer you to use stock based ROM. Like the ICS Stock by Rushabh25 since its your wife's phone. :D

I have gingerbread and have rooted it using superoneclick.

But here, rooting 2.3.4 has been done through flashing the upd_1.zip file

Do I need to use this particular method?

I didn't have clockwork recovery by default through superoneclick

I then had installed v4.0.0.9

is it too old?

if yes, how can I remove it and then flash a newer version of CWM

If no, how do I flash a custom ROM?

I tried flashing CM7 by FAT, but it showed "Installation Aborted"

Hi guys, here a simple question;).

How can i change my baseband? If i'm not wrong i have to install only the Modem file of the firmware. Is it correct?

Backup your ROM

Flash a new firmware.

Restore the old backup.

I have used this procedure because i flashed a firmware with onepakage. If you want you can try with flashing only MODEM file, with odin.

I downloaded the latest firmware from samfirmware, unzipped and found a .md5 file and a dll file. Not sure how to use that with Odin!! :-(

Help anyone?
[Galaxy Ace S5830 Android Development] droidtwoseven:
I think its a Full package file. You don't need to extract it. Load it directly through Odin.
[Galaxy Ace S5830 Android Development] sudeepm:
Thanks.. So i am supposed to just load it into the One Package section and leave phone PDA csc empty?

Samfirmware also suggests to use some Ops file for flashing on galaxy Ace. I never used that for flashing on my galaxy S. What's the purpose of that?
[Galaxy Ace S5830 Android Development] droidtwoseven:
Yes leave the other empty. For Cooper.ops, its necessary when flashing ace via Odin. So here's one for you. Extract the Cooper.ops file. That's the file you should use NOT the ZIP one.
[Galaxy Ace S5830 Android Development] sudeepm:
This was mentioned in one of the older posts.. That i need to use a full package instead of a one package file when moving from 2.2 to 2.3.

Is this true?

Also.. I downloaded the last two India firmware releases from samfirmware but in both cases I got either a tar or a md5 file..both I suppose are one package formats. So if it's mandatory to use a full package.. Where do I get one?

Please someone guide. I am tired of 2.2 now and desperately want to move to 2.3 or even better like ICS possibly :-D
[Galaxy Ace S5830 Android Development] droidtwoseven:
Yes its true. You really need a fullpackage file upgrading to 2.3.* version.

Do a forum search there's a lot you can find. Or you can use Odin to update.
[Galaxy Ace S5830 Android Development] sudeepm:
I suppose you meant "Or you can use KIES to update".. Right? Coz I am neways using Odin only.. The issue is whether to use a onepackage as against a fullpackage..with Odin!!

Thanks anyways.
[Galaxy Ace S5830 Android Development] droidtwoseven:
Oh, yes it Kies.

Should use a fullpackage file when upgrading from 2.2 to 2.3
[Galaxy Ace S5830 Android Development] MorfLFC:
Hi guys,

I've read the instructions on first page numerous times and I understand most of the tutorial, however I am still confused on how to root from a official 2.3.3 firmware, which I am currently using at the moment to a 2.3.6 / 2.3.7 firmware. And then to use ClockWork Mod to install the CynogenMod...

I have most of the files to do the root (Cooper.Ops, Odin etc)...Any help would be appreciated guys. I am only asking because I have researched this for about 10 hours and I am still not 100% clear what to do.

Thanks in advance (I have also thanked hubix's post already)
[Galaxy Ace S5830 Android Development] droidtwoseven:
If you want to root, just flash the upd_1.zip file attached on the first post. Do this in CWM, mount /system and /data first before doing the flash.
[Galaxy Ace S5830 Android Development] MorfLFC:
Do you mean go straight to step C, E, G and then H? What do you mean by mount system and data before flashing?

Or do you mean go and download CWM and use this tool to do the whole process? I know you can do backups via CWM, but does mounting mean backing up your system / data first?
[Galaxy Ace S5830 Android Development] sudeepm:
Apologies for continuing the same question but am not able to figure out a place to download a fullpackage version for 2.3.. I downloaded 2 latest firmware versions for India and one for Europe from samfirmware.. All are onepackage tar or md5 files.. Is there a sureshot link to get fullpackage firmware?

Thanks in advance.
[Galaxy Ace S5830 Android Development] droidtwoseven:
Try searching the development/general section and the forum. I believe you can find full package files here. :) you can also use Google.
[Galaxy Ace S5830 Android Development] MorfLFC:
I've done a fair bit of research on CWM, and according to what I've researched you have to root the phone before you can use CWM (For mounting tasks etc like droidtwoseven says above) Is this correct?

If so how do I root the phone first?
[Galaxy Ace S5830 Android Development] trushers:
i just want to share my experience.. i tried installing my cwm first before i rooted my phone.. its because i want to back up first before rooting..
[Galaxy Ace S5830 Android Development] MorfLFC:
So install CWM to backup things first before rooting? If thats the case I know its on the first page but then would you flash the phone using upd_1.zip and then begin from step A? Very confused here and I've looked at the tutorial again numerous times!
[Galaxy Ace S5830 Android Development] trushers:
oh.. so your basing the facts on the first page.. i just want to clear some things.. if you want to root.. just follow the steps on E.. if you want a to have CWM, since its CWM 5, i think it need the root.. in my experience i was using CWM 4(doesnt need root).. if you want to flash a custom ROM just go directly to steps H.. hope this clear some of the things on your mind.. if you still have some doubts.. just post it here.. i just want to help though.. im also a noobie too.. :)

[Galaxy Ace S5830 Android Development] MorfLFC:
That's correct thank you, you have been most helpful so far. So after following the steps on E (because CWM 5 I think also needs root), and therefore then the phone is rooted go to step H to flash Cynaogen (Custom ROM) using CWM 5 correct?

If I wanted to upgrade from 2.3.3 which steps would I follow. For example would I follow steps C , E and then H? Also because there are many european versions of firmware on samfireware.com what would you reccommend?
[Galaxy Ace S5830 Android Development] trushers:
its never a problem helping other people.. im also noob sir.. i but i just want to help.. im also learning at the same time.. heheh.. if im going to base this link (http://acetips.wordpress.com/2011/11/26/install-cwm-v5-ace-gb/).. be sure your ace is running on gingerbread.. it only requires cwm4 then update to cwm 5..

on your second question.. i supposed you want to flash a custom rom, you can directly refer to the custom rom's thread for instuctions.. every custom rom has different instructions.. some custom rom's are rooted already.. can i ask what version of your ace sir?
[Galaxy Ace S5830 Android Development] MorfLFC:
Superb! My version is 2.3.3 must be European version as I am in UK and if the Build number says "GINGERBREAD.XWKPY" it means Im running Gingerbread already yes?
[Galaxy Ace S5830 Android Development] trushers:
2.3.3 and up are gingerbread..
[Galaxy Ace S5830 Android Development] MorfLFC:
So just to recap follow step E to root and then step H for Custom ROM and then use the link you posted above to install CWM5 and from then onwards I can install the Cynaogen Mod...
[Galaxy Ace S5830 Android Development] trushers:
yah.. but a piece of advice, why dont you install CWM first then back up.. before your root or flash a custom rom.. just to be safe.. heheh.. good luch sir..
[Galaxy Ace S5830 Android Development] MorfLFC:
I thought CWM had to be rooted first to use it?

[Galaxy Ace S5830 Android Development] trushers:

[Galaxy Ace S5830 Android Development] MorfLFC:
Yes I get a error: E: Can't open /sdcard/update.zip - (No such file or directory) Installation Aborted.

I know this means that I haven't named the CWMv5 file "update.zip". Should I just try and "install" rather than "update" clockmod V4?
[Galaxy Ace S5830 Android Development] trushers:
may i ask where have you put your cwm5 file? i mean the .zip? i think it should be located on the root folder of your sd card..
[Galaxy Ace S5830 Android Development] MorfLFC:

Now it hangs on the screen that with the samsung name and website. No way to get into recory.
