Tutorial to flash Samsung Galaxy Ace S5830 to CodeRom NexusAce XXKPH 2.3.4:

•	First download CodeRom NexusAce rar file package which contains all the essential firmware flashing tools. Please note that after downloading the rar file, you will have to place the file on desktop and then extract the same. Use below link to download.

*MOD REMOVED* NO WAREZ*

•	Check whether extracted folder contains these key files COPPER, APBOOT, MODEM, CODEROMNEXUS, CSC and of course ODIN Multi Downloader v4.38

•	Open the Odin Multi downloader v 4.38 file from the extracted files after which you will see that a new window will be popping.

•	Now, at this point of time you will have to ensure that the KIES is completely closed and also preferably close all other programs in your computer too so as to ensure that the software update process is not hampered or interrupted in any manner.

•	After this you will have to make sure that your phone is turned ON in the download mode, the download mode can be turned ON by pressing Middle Key (OK Key) + Power key and Volume down Key simultaneously before connecting to PC after which the phone will enter in the download mode.

•	So, after double checking that the phone has entered in the download mode and connect your phone to your PC, then yellow ID: COM block. Now, next up without changing any other parameters you will have to select the files as they are mentioned below, this is very important step, if any of the file is wrongly entered then you will end up bricking the phone for which we can’t be held responsible in any manner what so ever.

OPS – Cooper_v1.0.ops

BOOT – APBOOT_S5830XXKPH_CL260130_REV03_user_low_true.tar.md5

Phone – MODEM_S5830XXKPH_CL260130_REV03.tar.md5

PDA – coderomnexus.tar.md5 (just ignore error message while inserting this file)

CSC – CSC_S5830SERKPH_CL260130_REV03_user_low_true.tar.md5

•	After checking the entries as mentioned above, click on the “Start” tab which is just located above the “Select OPS” option. Please note that as soon as you click on the Start tab it will take 5 – 10 minutes to complete the firmware update process and its highly requested on not to interrupt the process as this may brick your phone permanently.

•	You will see that after 5 – 10 minutes of time as mentioned above, the updation process is completed and you will have to wait till you see home screen in your phone and also you will have to watch out for Odin as you will see that a Blue colored box will be glowing up as “PASS”

•	Now remove your phone safely from PC and go to settings and Locale to change language.
