unroot.zip didn't work for me. After unrooting, the Superuser aplication is still on my device and superuser permissions are still granted for aplications.

my android is 2.3.4 KPH

Rooting with upd_1.zip update worked on my Galaxy Mini S5570. Thanks!
[Galaxy Ace S5830 Android Development] Hatshipuh:
Even after flashing the newest firmware, flash won't work on the Ace because of hardware limitations.

Flash does not run on Arm v6 CPUs, which the Ace has.

Youtube works because it runs on html5 as far as I know.

Otherwise just use the preinstalled Youtube App.

Downloaded firmware from samfirmware.com to my Galaxy Ace but don't know which file is which. Can you help me identify?

Files I have:

1. CODE_S5830XXKPH_CL260130_REV03_user_low_true.tar.md5

2. MODEM_S5830XXKPH_CL260130_REV03.tar.md5

3. CSC_S5830SERKPH_CL260130_REV03_user_low_true.tar.md5

4. APBOOT_S5830XXKPH_CL260130_REV03_user_low_true.tar.md5

5. Cooper_v1.0.ops

There also was Odin program but this is known to me. I don't know which file goes where in Odon.

[Galaxy Ace S5830 Android Development] mckennal:
Coldfire, are you talking about the 3g mobile data connection? If so, have you checked to make sure your APN is set correctly?
[Galaxy Ace S5830 Android Development] aleangelico:
Hi, maybe a lame question, but if I not mistaken, I can root the device without flashing a new Rom, it's this correct?
[Galaxy Ace S5830 Android Development] llvllaster:

[Galaxy Ace S5830 Android Development] hubix:
1. Whitch version ODIN you have?

2. Where are you from (maybe you trying wrong firmware)?
[Galaxy Ace S5830 Android Development] hubix:
Oh okay thanks :)
[Galaxy Ace S5830 Android Development] jmblazquezh:
I tried to update this firmware in my Galaxy ACE, but did not worked, even removing the battery. This is the message i got every time i tried it. Finally i updated to firmware version	S5830XWKB7.
[Galaxy Ace S5830 Android Development] TheAceGuy:
Whether i should update..??

Hi, everyone.

First of all i must tell everyone that i am new to this forum, and i would really like to appreciate what u guys are doing out there. Well done and keep up the good work. Development goes a long way :).

Ok, now let's get to the point. Actually i recently bought Samsung Galaxy Ace (GT-S5830) in India (Asia), and i read your post in which u said how to update to the latest firmware. I have S5830DDKA7 baseband version on mine and am running Android 2.2.1. I just wanted to ask whether i should update to the firmware that u suggested or not?

Also when i checked with samfirmware.com i found that there is another version available for Asia --> S5830ZSKC2_OZSKB2.rar but there is no date available for that. So which one is the latest?

Another question that i had in mind was that whether there is 2.3 upgrade available for this phone?

Thanx in advance, and great work.
[Galaxy Ace S5830 Android Development] hubix:
Some developers trying to port 2.3 into Ace (I think they need less then mounth to relase first RC). Yes firmware @ samfirmware is tge newest one.
[Galaxy Ace S5830 Android Development] bugz299:
Hi, i am from India...when i try to update the phone using kies ( from DKA7 to DKC1)..the kies software automatically puts the phone in download mode and cannot detect it ...can you please help..i am rooted the phone using SOC 1.7...

Thanks.
[Galaxy Ace S5830 Android Development] hubix:
Yes unrooting should help you (I've posted that in tutorial!!!).

Quick question.

I hate KIES.

I've just ordered an ACE and plan to Root, then flash VillainRom using ODIN - so do I need to install KIES at all?
[Galaxy Ace S5830 Android Development] aleangelico:
Just rooted my Telcel Mexican Samsung Ace GT-S5830L phone, running Android 2.2.1

I used option "C" with Super One Click 1.9.5. I didn't update the Firmware, even now not sure why should I update it.

It took about 2 minutes tops, got somehow scary when was "working" without updating the messages in the screen for about 40 seconds, but everything worked fine so fa.
[Galaxy Ace S5830 Android Development] skynet28:
To use odin you must have samsung drivers and for that you have to install kies,although you don't have to use it.
[Galaxy Ace S5830 Android Development] dungos:
try changing the USB port...see if ODIN detects it...
[Galaxy Ace S5830 Android Development] zongamin:
Thanks - exactly what I needed to know
[Galaxy Ace S5830 Android Development] lockzackary:
@OP hi i would like to ask what is the benefit of removing the sim card and external sd card when starting the flash process?
[Galaxy Ace S5830 Android Development] dungos:
Not required as such..i have flashed without removing both sim and sd card multiple times and everything is fine...may be a slight case of corrupting sim and sd if you dont remove it... just take it as an advise.
[Galaxy Ace S5830 Android Development] Matteo165:
How can I root my samsung galaxy ace uprgraded to the version 2.3.4 Gingerbread?

I looked for so many times but I did'nt found anything yet.

Is it the same of the 2.3.3 version?
[Galaxy Ace S5830 Android Development] Social Disease:
Yep, just start to recovery

and select update from sdcard and select upd_1.zip

Works for 2.3.4
[Galaxy Ace S5830 Android Development] SilentStrider:
With super one click you just root your phone, to update your firmware you must use Odin....at the start of this forum you have all the info you need to know of how to do that! Good luck!

.....Nothing Is True, Everything Is Permitted.....
[Galaxy Ace S5830 Android Development] Social Disease:
Super One Click 1.9.5 didnt work for me so... (for Android 2.3.4)
[Galaxy Ace S5830 Android Development] ijustzeke:
Yes. Its the same with 2.3.3 version. :)
[Galaxy Ace S5830 Android Development] SilentStrider:
Did you had debugging on on your device when you used super one click to root your phone, and most important did you hard rebooted your device after the process was done?

.....Nothing Is True, Everything Is Permitted.....
[Galaxy Ace S5830 Android Development] Social Disease:
Yea i had it on. Program it self said failed. And i also tried both exploits.

adb.exe goes to an infinite loop.

Anyways upd_1.zip like in 2.3.3 root work like a charm for me.
[Galaxy Ace S5830 Android Development] SilentStrider:
Well I am glad you found away around it....! Enjoy your rooted phone.....rule your android.....lol

[Galaxy Ace S5830 Android Development] pickhunter:

Yes and yes it has english, but you have to put APN's manually for data connections.

I guess, I can get those settings from my Network provider once I flash it..

Anyone has done this?? Vodafone Mumbai??

thanks! will be updating my sis her Ace 5830 to XXKPH 2.3.4. and rooting it with this tutorial

She's got some issues with her phone (idk if it's hardware related) phone just hangs and drops dead, and doesn't reboot. Factory reset doesn't help.

edit: looks like some hardware issues. On 2.3.4. with CF-root still drops dead. You can re-power the device like normal, but it's kind of annoying to have the phone drop dead all the time.
[Galaxy Ace S5830 Android Development] yang.mulia:
Hey um..will this also work on Galaxy Gio :confused:
[Galaxy Ace S5830 Android Development] dungos:
Rooting should work..but check for the ODIN version and firmware stuff for Galaxy gio for Flashing new ROM..else your phone will be bricked.

Also, go check for Gio forum if it is there for getting your answers correctly.

I havent installed any application yet cause i wanna make sure every application i install from now on goes to my sd card instead of phone memory .. So can anyone help pls ?
[Galaxy Ace S5830 Android Development] chinoyray:
Since you're on 2.3.4, why not flash the Custom Roms that will automatically do that for you? Apps2SD are present in FirstUA and Coderom.
[Galaxy Ace S5830 Android Development] danish.:
I upgraded to 2.3.4 without making any backup or anything just followed the instructions and there i am on 2.3.4 .. I ve never tried any custom rom or anything but i have a belief that flashing a custom rom will make it heavier and slower ( i might be wrong with that ) .. and they might not be reliable as well .. even if i flash a custom rom and i dont like it i dont know how to revert back to my old 2.3.4 .. In short dont know how to make backup and recovery .. Plus theres alot confusion about which Rom should one go for .. So i stay outta this

Firmware Region

Sorry to bug you with this guys, but a friend of mine just got a Galaxy Ace in Dominican Republic from a Carrier named Orange. The thing is that I can't seem to find the region to which his firmware belongs. The firmware is: s5830wgkd2.

Searched samfirmware, xda-developers and all of google in every language I manage, couldn't find a thing.

What I really want to know is which firmware can I flash it with to be able to flash AceVillainROM on it to bring it up to GB.
