Nope, I tried everything with the SIM. Even inserted another working SIM to check, doesn't work. Shows 0 signal in the mobile network status in About.

But now that isn't my concern. I want to flash back to Froyo so I can take it to the service center for warranty. And this is where I'm ending up with a lot of bad luck :(

I tried flashing all these firmwares:

Asian:

S5830DDKC1

S5830ZSKA6

S5830ZTKB2

Europeon:

S5830XXKA6

S5830XXJLC

S5830XXKPE

Except the KPE, which is Gingerbread, none of the Froyo ones seem to work. They pass the Odin installation, however after the reboot, it gets stuck at the Galaxy Ace logo. :confused: Seriously.. what's the problem I can't get it. I've tried all those Froyo FULL package ROMs that I saw people suggesting. Why does it get stuck at the boot? I can't return my phone to warranty with Gingerbread, as KC1 is the official in India yet.
[Galaxy Ace S5830 General] casiocas:
Sorry for you, but keep trying. Still maybe some is GOOD to go! Like: S5830ZCKA7

and

S5830DXKC1

And if you try other ones then ASIAN, try them when you probably buy your phone(look when they come to your store[if they come in FEBRUARY then try January FIRMWARE. Hope you get my point]).

Dont know what to do else, just keep trying and let HOPE you get it work(of course, if you drop dont BREAK something in HARDWARE).

CHEERS! :cool:
[Galaxy Ace S5830 General] nish7x:
Yeah, thanks at least for the moral support :) I've lost my head flashing dozens of times throughout the day yesterday, almost feel like some official flashing guy at the company :D but at least they get paid for doing it. :(

I think if nothing works, I will just give the service center the boot screen stuck Froyo ROMs, at least it might be better than giving them a working Gingerbread ROM.
[Galaxy Ace S5830 General] casiocas:
Ok! Let to us know, how it ended finally. Maybe we can learn something from it. THX in advance!

CHEERS! :cool:
[Galaxy Ace S5830 General] nish7x:
It finally ended like this.. I gave my phone to the service center on 23rd June, and getting it back today on 4th July. ****ty service people. Kept giving excuse they're trying to update my phone to some 'new version' as they called it, but aren't able to. Finally they could on the 10th day and got my phone back. And the 'new version' was nothing other than DDKC1 :mad: But oh well, the network and sound is fixed.

In the options somewhere I remember seeing an option to turn on and off the phone finder. Does that mean if you lose your phone and someone ticks that box then the sense security is basically disabled?
[HTC Sensation] sjgore:
Yes, but you should either have a pattern lock or PIN to stop them getting into the phone in the first place.
[HTC Sensation] Elvis_Freshly:
+1

but if they know how to boot into recovery they can get around that..Especially once we get root. That's the only down side to having root. Your phone is still open game.
[HTC Sensation] xnifex:
Also the tracking, at least for my phone, is in a wide 3/4 mile radius & the lock status takes like a while to actually lock your phone. Only the ringing of the phone is instant.

I can't wait for htcsense.com to be what it was promised to be when if first started with the Desire HD

*edit* sent out the lock command about 3 minutes before this post, still waiting for it to lock my phone even though on the site it says locked. Also, hit refresh location & still waiting for that to happen too.

*final update* took 1h15m for it to lock after the flag was sent
[HTC Sensation] ImHuge07:
Wow that's a long time. Mine usually takes 5 mins or less and locating the phone is quick too. Ive noticed that it even turns on the gps to locate it.
[HTC Sensation] Chris19145:
5 mins is still pretty long, I use SeekDroid instead and it's almost instant since HTC Sense isn't polished.
[HTC Sensation] xnifex:
when you use the site to locate your phone, how accurate is it for you?

just tried the lock again, went through right away.
[HTC Sensation] KillaHurtz:
TheftAware works off SMS and is locked away in the system unless you dial your specific security code. Even after factory reset. It will also call whoever you chose (2 parties I think) and send them SMS with the recent call records, gps activity, current phone number, etc.

All of this works even if the SIM is removed or changed !

Metamorph is basically an app similar to ROM Manager in that it lets you flash ZIP themes and installs them easily for you. I'm fairly certain that if we find a theme with the same resolution as our devices, we can get them to work.

Thanks!:) That looks great!;)
[Gen8, Gen9, Gen10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] wdl1908:
Some warnings about MetaMorph.

When you apply a Morph to an application and you clear the Dalvik cache the application will disappear because it is not signed correctly anymore.

It is impossible to change the resources.arsc because that file is never compressed in the apk and MetaMorph does not make a distinction between files so it also compresses the resources.arsc and the apk is unusable for the device.

When changing a framework-res.apk it will reboot your device automatically.

[Thunderbolt Accessories] ScoobarSTI:
Well I got sick of the added bulk/weight of my verizon dual case looking around on ebay I found this Ringke case. It's a silicone case, not too much added protection if it were dropped but just for daily use it's good enough. It definitely improves the power button feel, barely even have to touch it. Fit's nice and snug on the phone adds almost nothing to it. It isn't like most silicone cases collecting lint/getting stuck in your pocket it's a different material never seen it on a phone case before Only real complaint is with after market chargers the rubber kind of gets in the way but other then that I have zero complaints about it. For the price I think it was a decent deal.

just figured there might be others out there not sure about it, like I was and give a little insight on it.

[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] petebere:
Hi,

I'm on Galaxy S2; Android 2.3.3; KE7.

When using headphones on my device the volume is great for music, videos, youtube, and

even skype

. However for some reason it's only around half of that level when calling (even tough the volume is set to maximum).

I've done some google research and found out that it's quite a common issue with this phone. A workaround has been found by using some codes. However, it is not a permanent solution.

I've found a post which says that someone had called Samsung and they acknowledged the issue and will send them a new phone where this issue has been fixed.

1) Has anyone found a permanent solution to increasing the volume of the call when on headset?

2) I've also found a post where someone says that apparently Samsung will fix this issue in Android 2.3.4. Can you confirm this? When will this be available? If it's longer than 1-2 weeks I will have to send my phone for a refund/exchange (although I love it).

Your advice on the above is much appreciated.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] petebere:
Hi, I've done some further research and I think I've found the solution:

First make sure that your sound is on (as you can't access the volume settings in the silent mode) -> press the Menu button -> Settings -> Sound -> Volume -> and then increase the 'Incoming call' volume.

I've just tested the call volume when on headset and it has been increased to a more that enough level. Great. My love to this phone is growing :)

Now I have to figure out how to disable the camera shutter sound....but that's a question for another post... :)
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] petebere:
It seems that the solution above worked for some time but now my phone started to deliver very low call volume when on headphones. Maybe it's due to the Android update, I don't know.

However I found that the issue is related to the media volume. For example when I listen to music and turn the volume low then this affects the incoming call volume and it becomes low as well.

The solution to this problem seems to be: make sure that the music volume is max before you want to make a call. I've just tested it an is seems to do the trick.

It would be great to hear to another solutions to this problem for unrooted phones.

After using an earlier version of Argen2Stone and getting issues, I went back to stock ROM and froze all the useless apps with Titanium Backup Pro.

Works fine in stock setup (I'm much happier with the phone in stock setup now) and the battery is reasonable.

Hopefully, one day, if the bootloader is unlocked, we'll get CM7 or sth like that :)
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] indbeegee:
Hello guys

I´m new here and also quite new to the custom rom scene.

You can skip my story if you want. The questions are below :D

I bought a Desire (bravo Amoled) around a year ago with a T-mobile Branding.

At this time the actual android version was 2.1 Eclair. Later tehre was 2.2 Froyo out. Becaus i didn´t wanted to wait for the T-mobile update I debranded my phone so get the open 2.2 Froyo update. :p

I was so happy Froyo had the App2SD function, because now i can intall more apps then before. :) But with all the updates for google maps, google mail, facebook apps...and user that have to stay on phone memory and the user apps moved to SD still storing data on the internal memory and the dalvik cache i soon again had space problems. Still i can´t install all apps i like. :(

So lived with this problem not aware of a solution till 2-3 weeks ago, where i finally rooted my phone and installed a custom Rom with A2SD+. :cool:

Now I have a rooted, S-OFF phone with Insertcoin V49 A2SD+ Version. And i thought there would be no more space problems, because the dalvik cache and all apps are now on the fake internal memory (1,5 GB ext3). But NO, there are still apps storing stuff on the real internal memory. At last i had problems to move Plants vs. Zombies (~70MB) from SD (Froyoinstall) to the ext, because the internal mem hadn´t enough space and it wouldn´t let me move.

Next step CM7 Hboot?

So here are some questions to understand how that works.

1. When i install a CM7 Hboot, the data partition (internal memory) will be bigger, yes? Means there will be almost double space for app DATAs?

2. The system partition, where the actual ROM is stored and booted is smaller?

2a. But that means some parts of the ROM need to be moved to the SD?

2b. Doesn´t this make the entire phone slower? Because reading from the SD card is slower then from nand? (8GB Class4)

2c. Is there higher power consumtion because of constantly SD access?

3. The cache partition is dramatically decreased to 5 MB. What is ist used for and will there any diadvantages because of the small size?

4. What happens with the Dalvik? Where is ist stored?

5. Does A2SD+ still work with the CM7 insertcoin version? (big ext 3 fake internal memory) or only Froyo A2SD with the bigger real internal memory?

6. How do people get 160-180 free RAM? I have around 100-110 MB.

So my goal is to get as much space available for user apps and getting a faster device (or at least dont get a slower one)

Hope someone read all my questions and can give me clarity..

Thanks in advance

[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dackjaniels:
Hi beegee,

I'm new to this myself, so not an expert, but I just flashed the CM7r2 hboot myself and will help where I can. Note, I am using CyanogenMod7, not InsertCoin.

1. Yes, the system and cache partitions used by the phone ROM are decreased substantially, system decreases from 250MB to 145MB and cache from 40MB to 5MB. This extra space is then added to the internal data partition for your apps and games. I only have a few apps installed at the moment and my data partition is 287MB total, 21MB used, 266MB free space.

2. Yes, see above.

2a. No, the ROM only requires 145MB, none of it is stored on the sdcard.

3. I'm sure the cache must be a fixed size. Mine (with CyanogenMod7) has remained at 4MB since install so a 5MB partition is large enough.

4. I store dalvik-cache on the ext3 partition of my sdcard as you are doing now. If you moved it back to the phone memory it would be stored in the data partition.

5. I use a version of A2SD with the CM7 hboot and it works fine.

6. I've not used insertcoin but as I said in the first answer I have 287MB data partition in my phone now. This is due to using the CM7 hboot.

Hope this helps,

Steve
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jordan.harris01:
The larger cache size from the stock Hboot is meant for OTA updates so we have no use for that. It's also used to flash radio images from recovery. If your cache is too small, like it is in the CM7 and Oxygen Hboots, you will need to flash the radio via fastboot but you don't really need to worry about flashing radio's anyways..can look into that later if you want.
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] indbeegee:
Thanks for the answers by now.

What i found out:

The Insertcoin is a Sense enabled rom. The zip of the Rom is about 288 Meg big. Its not an AOSP like Cyanogen, which is so sleek to fit completely in the smaller system partition. I extracted both Insertcoin A2SD and CM7 zips and found that they have a sdext folder. On the cm7 version it is 365 Meg and on the a2sd+ 80 Meg big. So both versions install files on the external partition.

Only open question now is if the CM7 version supports A2SD+

Edit: Obviously the CM7 version has no A2SD+ :(

Also the the new bigger system partition only has ~ 80 Meg free after first boot ?!
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] UsManyDead:
Hello. I haven't installed, yet a custom ROM (I'm still on Rooted Stock), but documented a little to understand even better what each ROM does.

1. I saw that you wanted a very fast ROM, the only ones that are really fast are the AOSP ROM's since they are in the most minimalistic form possible --> ~150MB

2. You should also take in consideration that a small cache partition may slow down some games. This was tested and problems appeared at some games, which use some improved graphics. The games also store there some of the "graphics files"? and since the partition is too small, it has to constanly read/write/delete.

3. CM7 version supports A2SD+: you should read the whole thread from here: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=917570. It explains all. As I have read some of it two things popped-up:

-CyanogenMod do not officially support a2sd, i'm working on it because desire (not only) desperatly need it (cutted down Firerat script)

-Other a2sd can be used, this is just the easiest way: use recovery to partition your SD then install cm7_legacy_a2sd_rX-signed.zip

Hope this helps you.
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] indbeegee:
Hello

Thanks for the infos. I know the ASOP roms are faster, but i don´t want to miss the Sense UI.

To 3. I think there was a misunderstanding. When is say CM7 i dont mean the rom "CyanogenMod7" but the CM7 Hboot Version of Insertcoin rom.

I just tried to postinstall a2sd via http://www.darktremor.info/files/a2sd/dtapps2sd-2.7.5.3-beta04-signed.zip

But after installation in recovery, the phone wont boot Insertcoin. Stuck at Alpharev Bootstreen now. :o
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kempshott:
Presumably the HBOOT and Radio partitions are the same size whichever HBOOT you use, and Radio immediately follows HBOOT. Otherwise you would have to flash the Radio if you changed he partition map by (eg) going from Stock to CM7.
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] UsManyDead:
If you've done a nandroid back-up before trying to flash the A2SD+ scripts (which is advised!!!) you should go back to recovery and restore it. You should go back to your InsertCoin again and try the steps once again. Maybe you did something wrong or got a wrong file.
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] indbeegee:
No, i didn´t made a nandroid backup, because ist was a new Insertcoin CM7 install. No personal data to lose.

I just wiped and made a new install. Now i have 199 Meg internal memory free.

Edit: After installing DT A2SD in recovery again, the phone is again stuck at Alpharev splash :( What now?

Edit2: After installing the Rom over without wipe, Insertcoin boots normaly. But i encountered, force reboots when installing any app.

So i made a new fresh isntall.

Conclusion: Insertcoin uses my Ext4 for its Data. But will not use it as fake internal memory. My Ext4 is ~1,5 GB big. Insertcoin uses 600 MB from it and the leftover 900 MB are wastetd, because no one uses it.

Edit 3: Insertcoin doesnt like Ext4. Everytime i tried to install Astro File Manager fom Market the phone rebootet. No problem with Ext3
