yes but drivers are available for your ati gpu, your soundcard..

it will be something like a 'Frankalaxy' yes, but it would definitly be a start!

btw people must be aware of this but anyway here is an article on freeyourandroid/guide/porting-android .com [remove the space pls]

maybe this could help.

and yes the galaxy ace is closer to galaxy y due to generation of production

i.e mini/gio are old phones while ace and y are in the same generation.

Would request someone to try...

I'm from a pure symbian background and still learning android dev so....

would love if someone could lead to me some heads up article

[Google is my ally] :D

I'm using your next2ics rom and loving it

waiting for your next update

(you do have an experience in rom transgening so, why dont you try it?

would love have cm9 as d almostnext2ics update :P )

@nabeeleinstein

i know that article long time ago. and believe me, that's not going to help a lot. it's missing a lot of detail that specific to galaxy y. it's just like compile custom kernel for galaxy y. you will find a lot tutorial how to compile kernel for android phone, but none work for galaxy y. event with kernel source already released by samsung. only after harish2704 found about correct version mkbootimg, it's become possible to compile custom kernel. and building ics from source will not give you working ics without a lot of patching. and nobody (with capability) do that right now.

and new ace (GT-S5830x) is different phone from original ace. new ace is the same family with our galaxy y, but original ace is galaxy mini and gio family.

imo, the only possible path is waiting samsung release new ics phone with same soc. bcm21553 is new samsung's favorite for low end phone and to become competitive soon or letter they have to move to ics.
[Galaxy Y GT-S5360 General] Filip98:
Yea cm7 is ported from ace

P.s its Friday the 13th **** can happen xD

P.s s5380i (ace I ) is so similar to y that they can install our roms if they change the roms kernel and lcd density :P maybe we can do the same when it gets good roms ^^
[Galaxy Y GT-S5360 General] nabeeleinstein:
exactly my point! the new ace shares the same DNA right? so why cant we use its ics from maclaw's version [latest build 9 out] and tweak the files.

worth a try?

or has it been done and ended in well... failure?

so we can

wait for that new phone to get ics

or give your phones to our lil siblings and move on to the big guys.. Sigh! :crying:
[Galaxy Y GT-S5360 General] irfanbagus:
because afaik, there is nothing ics for new ace. ics for old ace did not work on new ace. old ace and new ace only share the same name.

anyone else having issues flashing CWM Touch from recovery? I can't get it to take even though it successfully completes.
[Galaxy S III General (US Carriers)] fergie716:
You downloaded the d2spr version from download.clockworkmod.com?
[Galaxy S III General (US Carriers)] shabbypenguin:

Can't backup ROM, "sd marker not found"

Any ideas?
[Galaxy S III General (US Carriers)] gtpdjw:
It said that to me when trying to use the app to backup but I did it manualy and it worked fine.
[Galaxy S III General (US Carriers)] MinimalistChris:
Any advantage/disadvantage of flashing the new CWM through ROM Manager, or manually through ODIN? Btw, do you flash this through ODIN or (old) CWM since this is a .img file?
[Galaxy S III General (US Carriers)] fergie716:
Just so ppl know, you can find all CWM Recoveries here:

http://download.clockworkmod.com/recoveries/

Our device is d2spr

Towards the bottom you'll find the CWM Touch Recovery, I flashed the img using Mobile Odin and it's working fine
[Galaxy S III General (US Carriers)] MinimalistChris:
Ah... flashed it through mobile ODIN... thanks for the tip, Fergie!
[Galaxy S III General (US Carriers)] fergie716:
No problem!

Another tip, backups made with the older CWM recovery (the unofficial one, the one you probably flashed after rooting initially), those older backups may not be compatible with the newer, official versions. I'm using the latest CWM Touch 5.8.4.6 and it seems to backup system and data differently
[Galaxy S III General (US Carriers)] klarthur:
Can't seem to get the .img to flash when using mobile odin... I tried to click on Recovery then find the file, but it doesn't list the file, only the folders I have available. Am I doing something wrong?
[Galaxy S III General (US Carriers)] fergie716:
If you downloaded the CWM img file rename it to just "recovery.img" then put it on the root of your SD

Open up Mobile Odin, Select "Open File", then select your recovery.img (I put it on Internal Storage)

After you select your recovery.img, before you select Flash Firmware, it should list the recovery.img in the recovery slot

Then you should be all set. Select Flash Firmware and after it flashes you should automatically be rebooted into recovery (I suggest making a backup ASAP just to be safe)
[Galaxy S III General (US Carriers)] Naddict:
Phew... Glad to see there is a fix... I thought I was losing my freaking mind when I tried backup of my rom....

Mobile Odin didn't help me much... could I install the touch recovery.img through adb? dd if=/sdcard/recovery.img of=/dev/block/mmcblk0p18 ?
[Galaxy S III General (US Carriers)] Naddict:
The mobile Odin way did not work for me. After I flashed the img file, rebooted and tried to do a backup using Clockwork mod, the phone rebooted and gave me the same errors as posted above! ???Help???

:D

EDIT: Duplicated this same error/issue on my second GS3...so it is definitely CWM related...also..cannot "see" or view the backups on the phone via the Rom Manager app either..very frustrating...hope those smarter than me can fix...I am willing to assist in any way... thanks
[Galaxy S III General (US Carriers)] w8setter:
I flashed the new touch cwm in the unofficial recovery and it works, but doesn't stick, reverts back to the old recovery after a reboot???
[Galaxy S III General (US Carriers)] jf11time:
This may be a dumb question but, couldn't we just install ROM Manager and flash the CWM recovery with it, like I used to do on my EVO 4G?
[Galaxy S III General (US Carriers)] mercado79:
the team epic guys has set us up with a recovery that would stick cause the first samsung ota automatically reverted to their own recovery instead of cwm. maybe this issue is related. it just keeps overwriting what you flashed thinking that it's a bad (Samsung) recovery. don't know for sure as i haven't tried it yet.
[Galaxy S III General (US Carriers)] badname:
that defeats the purpose of this new, "supported" recovery as i would like the option to flash things and manage backups via rom manager.

thats what i did.

---------- Post added at 08:45 PM ---------- Previous post was at 08:41 PM ----------

mine sticks, just rebooted 2 times, and after booting into recovery again still version 5.8.4.6 which is latest.

[Galaxy S III General (US Carriers)] jf11time:
Why is everyone using Mobile Odin, can't you use the desktop version of Odin to flash the recovery? And if not, where can I get Mobile Odin and is it free?
[Galaxy S III General (US Carriers)] fergie716:
I'm not sure if you can use regular Odin. Maybe if you tar up the recovery img. I never used Odin to flash a regular img so I can't really comment on that.

And in Google Play search for Mobile Odin, no its not free
[Galaxy S III General (US Carriers)] klarthur:
If you Google mobile Odin i believe the first link is to a version of mobile Odin that was published on xda and is free. It is called mobile Odin lite
[Galaxy S III General (US Carriers)] fergie716:

So do you put the image file on the root of your phone sd or external sd? Or does it matter?

[Galaxy S III General (US Carriers)] klarthur:
Do you have the touch version or the standard? I have the touch and the options are there for me
[Galaxy S III General (US Carriers)] fergie716:
It might not be restoring because the backups were made with a different version of CWM.
[Galaxy S III General (US Carriers)] Micronads:
I have touch and cannot access my external sd card using the latest version.
[Galaxy S III General (US Carriers)] klarthur:
Should go to http://download.clockworkmod.com/recoveries/ and download "recovery-clockwork-touch-5.8.4.7-d2spr.img".... Rename it to recovery.img and then flash it with mobile odin.

These were the steps that I used and I am able to save to external SD and even restore backups from the unofficial CWM we have been using

[Galaxy S III General (US Carriers)] Skunk Ape1:
Nope. I have the touch version and there is no choice in the .7 (the newest) version and it won't backup or restore to the sd card. Yes. I made a backup right after flashing the recovery and there was no choice but the internal. I then moved the backup image just made to my external card and tried to restore it but cwm wouldn't find it nor did it give me any options to find it.

Edit: I am wrong. I had more than one backup on my phone and got mixed up. After deleting all my backups, I tried again and found it does backup to my external card by default.

I'm sorry I'm using the paid version so idk if there's an option to flash recovery but if there is download CWM recovery for your variant, place it on your internal or external sd (I put mine on internal), rename it to recovery.img and select it for the recovery partition in Mobile Odin then select Flash Firmware
[Galaxy S III General (US Carriers)] mercado79:
FlashKernel is a related apk you have to install for Mobile Odin to work. The paid version will download and install it automatically.
