IMEI problem

Update.

Thanks to Android-fany for the link to sammobile. Downloaded the correct firmware to downgrade my phone S5830i (S5830IXXLD3)

Split and flashed through odin. Tested OK.

As soon as I flashed Rafael's kernel, the phone had problems reading the sd cards again. Can't understand why, It's driving me nutty.

Looks like I'm stuck with the stock kernel.:crying: Unless anyone has got an answer.
[Galaxy Ace S5830i General] kewkie:
Hm.. i'm on stock now too, with rafaels kernel

My steps:

- Stock rom flashing thru odin

- made a backup of my contacts (saved on sd card)

- Flashed ROOT, E3 Image and modules

- reboot

- flashed domscript

- reboot

- imported my contacts from the backup (from the saved file on the sd card)

Works fine :)

[Galaxy Ace S5830i General] Sempers2:
That's pretty much the same way as I done it, except I made backups of contacts, call logs, sms logs first.

- Flashed stock rom thru odin

- reboot

- Flashed root, E3 Image and modules

- reboot

Had not heard about domscript, but sounds good and will look at it if ever I get Rafael's kernel working right.

No need to import contacts as I didn't lose them.

So Rafael's kernel is installed, I can see the cpu covernor has changed to Lionheart and speed is changing. (My main reason for wanting the kernel).

So it appears all is OK, but I still have the problem of r/w errors to the sd cards.
[Galaxy Ace S5830i General] kewkie:
Domscript is my favorite script at the moment (with V6 supercharge it makes your phone really faster :) ).

I guess some people losing their contacts after flashing rafaels kernel (on a older simplicity version with rafaels kernel included i didnt lost them, but when i flash it with the v5 version i lost them, same for stock rom - but np, backup! :) )

preferable cpu sets: govenor: smartassv2 , i/o sheduler: noop or bfq

for me its good in both ways (battery and performance - but stock is by far the best rom for battery life).

dont forget to mount data and system in cwm when you want to flash domscript :)

which kernel for performance and battery (for an good balance)?

also you will have to edit the battery_status.xml in framework-res.apk/res/layout!!

U can achieve this with ondemand governor too..

Clear the cache/data of the app. If it doesn't work reinstall the Play Store. If still doesn't work go to cwm then wipe cache then go to advanced -> wipe dalvik-cache and Fix permissions, then restart.

Re: [GENERAL][OFF-TOPIC]No question is noobish here

e3 recovery means Samsung Stock Recovery..It is always advisable to flash roms using e3 that is Stock recovery because sometimes cwm recovery can make yur device softbrick..:o

To flash Rafael kernel with e3 recovery-

1.Boot yur phone in e3 recovery

2.apply update frm sd

3. Flash boot.img

4.again apply update

5. Flash modules.

6.Then reboot..

So, I noticed that the General Section CWM (the one i previously had) backups up everything while the Development Section one does not back up boot image and also doesn't detect my sd-ext partition and hence doesn't backup it. So, while restoring that CWM doesn't create any problem as it does not backup boot image only!

I tried restoring a backup taken from the previous cwm and it skipped restoring of boot image and thus didnt stopped but also it didn't restore sd-ext although its backup was there.

Anyways thanks as i can restore sd-ext with the previous cwm. ;)

At the moment i'm thinking about the Battery.

I'm using Simplicity atm and well...the battery life isnt the best.

So, i guess i'm flashing back to stock. What do think about using script? (Like Adrenaline engine, domscript, V6 etc.) - Can i / we use these scripts without any doubt about the battery? Because V6 is working everytime/all day long - Controlling the RAM. Is it just dumbness from me or i am right?

And what about using toggles? The reason why im using custom ROM's is, because i like the toggles (fast turn off data/wifi etc.) - So, other toggles = more battery drain?

// Kernel question (i know its not allowed, but its just a question to complete my brainway :P)

To be honest because of the properties of the phone your battery shouldn't drain that fast. There's an app for calibrating the battery, just charge your phone fully (turn off, leave it on charger about 8 hours at least or when its full plug in-plug out the power cable until the full message appears in 30 seconds). OR wipe battery stats in recovery when its full! Hope It helped
