Hi there.

Do you guys know if it's possible to flash only modem (KPB) on Ace,tried to search around but couldn't find.

Flashed Cyanogen Cooper-Kang but i cant use 3G, someone said that was because he didn't flashed the modem, and after doing it it started working again.

Thanks

I rooted my phone and went from a 2.3.3 official gingerbread update to a 2.3.4 DXKPB ROM, running infinitely smoother. But in ROM Manager, it's telling me I need to root my phone again. Does one need to do this again after a reflash? If not, will trying to root it again cause damage?

Hi Guys.

I followed the tutorial on the first page to root my galaxy ace with gingerbread 2.3.3:

D. Rooting for 2.3.3/2.3.4/2.3.5 (Thanks to russian forum-user with nickname may213):

1) Download attached file called upd_1.zip and copy it to your sdcard

2) Turn off your phone

3) Press POWER+HOME BUTTON

4) Select update from sdcard, select the file upd_1.zip

5) After the update completed - reboot

6) Now you have rooted S5830

but cant' see correctly the efs folder to back up it

Anybody can help me?

confused!!!

I'm getting only MD5 file out of newest firmware!

with what should i unpack
[Galaxy Ace S5830 Android Development] Fishlips:
You can and should flash the md5 file with Odin. You don't have to unpack it further.

If you really want to unpack it though, remove the md5 extension manually, and open with WinRAR.

[Galaxy Ace S5830 Android Development] 5pace:
Wait till Odin shows "PASS" in the block, then unplug the USB, and take out the battery (assuming that you still have bootloop), wait for 5-10 seconds, put the battery back in and boot up the phone wile holding the HOME and POWER keys (until white Samsung logo comes up), you would enter in recovery mode, navigate to "wipe data/factory reset" using volume buttons press the HOME key on it, you will see some lines go by, wait for it to compelete, as soon as it completes, navigate to "wipe cache" and press HOME key on that, finally navigate to "reboot now" option, your phone would start up as usual!

My Question: Can i unbrand my phone with a ROM? because the extra apps of vodafone are RAM eating ;)

Yes just flash stock firmware from samsfirmware.com :)

Is there any extra steps to take if I were to flash from custom back to stock ROM? I'm thinking of flashing from grif's CM7 back to stock ROM. Thanks.
[Galaxy Ace S5830 Android Development] domnic79:
Yes. D main step convert your system from ext to rfs. U can do it by wiping caches & formatting ur system OR flashing a full package rom in odin.

What do I need to do before flashing via Odin ? Do I need to format system before flashing or something else ?? Or I don't need to do anything just to flash ?

1st of all great tutorial. I'm bit confused at B, C, D, E.

I have prepared my PC. Now for phone. I have upgraded my Android Frayo to Gingerbread 2 months ago via samsung kies official upgrade. So which step should I go for??

And what is F* ? Is it necessary to go for unrooting after rooting in previous stage or it's optional??

And what is custom recovery?? Also is there any need to take backup?? If yes then is there any tool??

Also what does this means? "Push recovery-clockwork-5.0.2.6-galaxyace.img to your device using "adb push recovery-clockwork-5.0.2.3-galaxyace.img /tmp/" command" not getting anything!! :(

Hi,

I bought this phone for my wife, but it is locked to operator (VIP, Croatia to be specific).

I understood rooting (I rooted my Desire HD), but I'm not sure will this method also unlock phone to use any SIM card from any operator?

If this will make my phone to use TELE2 network I'm happy, if not, could you please direct me to a page where I can find more information how to unlock the phone.

I will root this phone at the end because I would like to install some gerat software on this phone also.
[Galaxy Ace S5830 Android Development] Rainbowboy:
I am not really sure about unlocking sim card operator restriction on other than samsung. Try looking for IT professional that know more about unlocking devices.
[Galaxy Ace S5830 Android Development] micro88:
I am not an expert but will try to help.

1. No need to do step F after you have rooted your phone using E

2. The procedure described in G is for flashing custom recovery. I also hunted for the recovery-clockwork-5.0.2.3-galaxyace.img file but could not get it. So, instead I used the file at

http://xdaforums.com/attachment.php?attachmentid=743333

3. Download this file and copy it to your SD card. Then boot into recovery and flash this zip file. When you reboot into the recovery mode , you will get the Clockwork(CWM) screen instead of the original recovery screen that came with your phone.

4. Custom recovery means CWM which you will install at 3. above.

5. Yes. You can use the Backup and Restore option of CWM to take a backup and restore it later.

I have tried to help based on what I did by self learning.

Hope it helps.

Perhaps this could be added to your how to as i personally had major difficulties with this (partly due to the samfirmware move)

UK Only - Solution to the no sms while on 3g error which I ended up with after rooting and flashing my Ace.

You need:

* Odin

* http://www.multiupload.com/N1TQ49HORW

Load the ops, check one package and plug your phone in (after removing sdcard/sim) turn it on pressing Power+Volume Down+Home and when phone enters Download Mode. Press Start.

wait, tada you should now be able to send txt again. Tested on both tmobile & orange
