On ur previous post no
[Galaxy Ace II General] Moonly:
Hello, I'm new here. I'll try to be as good as possible in term of expression 'cause I'm obviously not a native english speaker.

I have a GT-I8160P model running the MC8 ROM from TMN. I used the "trick" to have 624MB of free RAM. My phone is seen as a GT-I8160 model, without NFC (which is normal).

Now, I want to revert back my phone to a GT-I8160P model and use the German ROM. I tried to flash the German ROM but as you know, I loosed the modem. One solution would be to revert back to Gingerbread but the tuto posted here is for GT-I8160 only, am I right ? If so, is there a solution for GT-I8160P NFC models ? I've tried to reflash an official Gingerbread ROM but my phone was soft bricked, so I reinstalled the MC8 ROM for the moment.

Thanks !
[Galaxy Ace II General] primewell:
You have to copy /tee from MC8 to ME1 in order to get sim/modem back.
[Galaxy Ace II General] Moonly:
If I do that, I'll still have the I8160 bootloader (instead of the "P" one) and 624MB of RAM but my modem will work. How can I do that ?

Reflash with a proper I8160P GB ROM seems the best thing to do for me, so I'm still curious if someone knows how to do it.
[Galaxy Ace II General] primewell:
You simply use a root explorer under rooted MC8 to navigate to /system/lib and copy the whole thing. After installing and rooting ME1 you navigate again to /system/lib and replace the ME1 version with the MC8 version of the folder... if I'm not mistaken LK3 fw /tee will also do the job.

This /tee is from a user from a German Android bbs, seems it worked for him

http://www.mediafire.com/?jk6hhwigbh2214k

Up to now this isn't possible atm... ME1 will have NFC, etc. but as you say will still identify as non NFC 8160.

I have 8160P and am on AOSP Italian Job with MC8 with 624mb... got a benchmark of 6050 after swapping extSD to USB-SD again (only got mark 4 SD card)... after installing a few tweaks like mediashare and WiFi-Direct, and after installing facebook etc. I get a benchmark at 5761 (after system up for 14h and using it all the time).

This is w/o supercharger installed... will configure that this afternoon and tweak it to get max balance.
[Galaxy Ace II General] Moonly:
Thanks for the tip. Maybe I'll try it later this week. ;)

OK, thanks for the answer. In fact, with ME1 the phone is identified as 8160P, the bootloader isn't 'cause it comes from 8160P but it's just esthetic.
[Galaxy Ace II General] primewell:
Whut?
[Galaxy Ace II General] Moonly:
That's just a mistake that I can't correct because of the forum restriction, I meant I8160 obviously.
[Galaxy Ace II General] fabrixx:
i recovered my phone with this method:

After i upgrade to ME1

I not have not sim recognized, nfc and wifi works.

What have i to make to have my sim card connected?

Please please help me, i need phone for job.

I have a 8160p phone but the initial logo show mw 8160 version.
[Galaxy Ace II General] Moonly:
It was unecessary because this tutorial is for I8160 only, not I8160P, so it can't recover your phone properly.

You have to copy the "tee" folder from /system/lib (you must access to this folder with an explorer like Root explorer or ES explorer) from your old JB ROM (did you had the MC8 version ?) and then paste it to the ME1 version. In order to do that, your phone must be rooted when flashed in the ME1 ROM.

I hope I was clear enough !
[Galaxy Ace II General] fabrixx:
I bricked my phone and if I tried to put mc8 not boot more so the only way I've found is to change PIT, CSC, PDA does that guide but it was not in my version.

But not enough that I could find a version of ME1 complete with PIT, CSC, PDA but where i can find it?

excuse my incompetence, I hope to be able to solve, thanks for the valuable help
[Galaxy Ace II General] Moonly:
I had the same problem. I soft bricked my phone trying to flash a Gingerbread I8160P ROM on my I8160 MC8 ROM (even though I have an I-8160P version of the phone).

The best thing to do for me was to flash the MB4 version (with PIT, CSC and PDA files) and then update the phone to the regular MC8 version from TMN (Portugal).

Now, I came back to my previous state : the MC8 ROM with 624MB of free RAM and no NFC support (wich is not very important at the moment). I can upgrade to the ME1 version. At first I'll lose the modem functionnality, but restoring the "tee" folder will restore the modem. :)

The absolute best thing to do for us is to wait until a I8160P Gingerbread or Jelly Bean ROM come out with PIT, CSC and PDA files to flash it properly. A GB ROM would be nice too because then we can flash it with a similar ROM from our country, and then flash it again with the ME1 version from Germany to upgrade to Jelly Bean.

PS : the "Galaxy Ace 2 GT-I8160" load screen is normal. The bootloader we used comes from a I8160 ROM so naturally it doesn't state I8160P.

Again, I hope my english was good enough for you to understand the possibilities you have. ;)
[Galaxy Ace II General] fabrixx:
Moonly thanks, you've been very clear.

So the problem is that there is no version ME1 with PIT, CSC and PDA.

I do not know then if you can also update via the phone updates on air.

You must know that I have linux and I used heimdall to flash several times successfully GB.

I had also used it to ME1, the sim card was reached (i see the bars ininitial screen)but the start wizard was not successful.

So I bricked the phone by selecting repartitioning from heimdall and the only way was that of the Russian wrong version.

So then I became insane, linux is not allowed to enter the csc and I had to completely install an alpha version of windows 7 & vmware to use odin, , hopefully good ..
[Galaxy Ace II General] Moonly:
Wow, my way was simplier. I used Odin 3 v3.07 to flash the phone and try different things. :)

In my case, I can't update over the air 'cause I'm already with Jelly Bean. It's just not the perfect one for my phone, and it's "tweaked" to have 624MB, which seems to be a bad idea as some people said earlier.

I don't know if I'll update to ME1 or not. I could normally do it (assuming I'm copying the tee folder), but I'm not sure to do it yet. I'll let you know. One thing was sure : when I tried to update the phone to the ME1 ROM, everything seems fine, even the NFC function which was activable. The modem was the "only" (:D) thing missing.
[Galaxy Ace II General] cumbreman:
Then, after rewritting /tee folder, you have now the ME1 ROM with NFC and SIM active. That's all right?
[Galaxy Ace II General] fabrixx:
There is also a PHE version now
[Galaxy Ace II General] fifo171:
You mean the spanish one? It contains a new bootloader and stuff, but when I flashed it, it decreased my RAM to 482 MB. :eek:
[Galaxy Ace II General] Shadowcareful:
First flash mb 2 and then me1 spanish maybe then u could have 624 mb of ram
[Galaxy Ace II General] fabrixx:
PHE is Spanish?

I find today in samsung-updates.

I downloading now.

With this you see i8160P logo startup (instead of gti8160)?

At the moment with german i cant enable software updates cause an elaboration error on confirming terms&conditions

HOW TO KNOW TOTAL RAM?

from services i see 393 used 157 free= total 550

to have 650 i have to flash mc8 first instead of 8160russian?
[Galaxy Ace II General] Moonly:
Normally, yes. I haven't tested yet, I'm busy. :/

Yeah, but the bootloader will state GT-I8160 (without the "P") or the free RAM available will not be 624MB. It depends on the fact that the Spanish ROM contains (or doesn't contain) a new bootloader.

It depend where you come from. If you're with a stock GB ROM for your GT-I8160P, the bootloader will state the same, but if you have à MB2/MB4/MC8 ROM, you used the GT-I8160 bootloader, so the "P" will be missing. Using the Spanish ME1 ROM may change the bootloader so you can see the "P", but it's not verified yet.

But that's not the most important, the phone will work. NFC was activable for me when I tested the German ME1 version over the MC8 TMN one from Portugal. The "only" thing missing was the SIM/modem function, but it's normally restorable with the /tee folder.
[Galaxy Ace II General] fabrixx:
Very thanks for your support
[Galaxy Ace II General] Moonly:
If you want 624MB of free RAM, you have to use the MB2 bootloader. I'm not sure if the MB4 one does the same. I used the GT-I8160_EUR_XX_4G.pit file on my phone.
[Galaxy Ace II General] fabrixx:
Ok so i have to reinstall MB2 first with PIT and after reinstall ME1

In the PHE version i see 3 more files:

What are this files??
[Galaxy Ace II General] Moonly:
You have to reinstall the MB2 (I used the MB4 version, but I don't know if the .pit file cam from the MB4 or MB2 ROM) and update to ME1 indeed.

I don't know what are the files you're showing.
[Galaxy Ace II General] fabrixx:
This is the new PHE

http://live.samsung-updates.com/details/9988/Galaxy_Ace_2/GT-I8160P/PHE/I8160PXXME1.html

And if the new files are to fix modem and ram?

I want to try first this version and after if not work reinstall MB2
[Galaxy Ace II General] Moonly:
OK, but you asked what are the files in your screenshot, and I don't have the answer. That's why i wrote "I don't know what are the files you're showing".
[Galaxy Ace II General] fabrixx:
Ok no problem ;)

I'm too curious, let me kamikaze
[Galaxy Ace II General] fabrixx:
Ok i flashed PHE version in Debian/Vmware

I see I8160 at boot (cause russian bootloader)

i have 550Mb and no sim recognized :(

Ok i start to your procedure
[Galaxy Ace II General] fabrixx:
my phone is dead, after flashed MB2 i hold power& volume down (to prepare for ME1).

Maybe i have to let the phone make first boot...but i have pressed imediatly after odin reboot

I cant powerup, i not see anything if plug into usb.

I have to send phone in warranty to amazon, i think there are non solution.
[Galaxy Ace II General] Moonly:
Did you let the phone reboot properly ? Do you see the Samsung logo ? If you don't see anything at all and you didn't let the phone boot properly, you may have hard bricked your phone. :/
[Galaxy Ace II General] fabrixx:
No, i not see nothing, nothing appear
[Galaxy Ace II General] Moonly:
That sounds bad. You can't access to recovery or download mode ?
[Galaxy Ace II General] cumbreman:
You must use Volume down + power + HOME.

Try again, please

There is not a reset button under the cover?
[Galaxy Ace II General] loof13:
Try charging it. If it still doesn't work buy a USB jig
[Galaxy Ace II General] fabrixx:
damn.

is possible that the cause is that after odin i not wait to first reboot, but started with power+volume down?
[Galaxy Ace II General] Moonly:
That's very likely possible.

hi guys,

is there any way to root 8160p jb?

and can sb tell clearly the steps to have 8160p with 624 ram(i read about breaking while doing this)
[Galaxy Ace II General] Moonly:
I don't have a rooted phone so I can't answer about that.

To have a ME1 with 624MB of RAM, you simply have to update from a MC8 624MB of RAM (there are tutos). Modem/SIm will not work at first, you have to copy the /tee folder from \system\lib from the MC8 ROM and paste it to the same place when the phone will be updated to ME1.

This operation may need to be rooted though, I didn't tried it myself but it's been reported to work.
[Galaxy Ace II General] ibo8631:
what u mean by updat?

update whit kies officially coz i cant update in such a way

what is ur idea about flashing my nfc phone with mc8 and having 624 ram and getting better support from net like root , just without nfc
[Galaxy Ace II General] Moonly:
I said "update" 'cause the ME1 ROM is not a full separated file ROM (.pit, CSC and PDA), so it's meant to be used as an update from an another ROM (GB 2.3.6 for example). The ME1 doens not contain a separated bootloader, that's why I'm using the "update" word. Thus, your personal data are not loss during the process, so it's another reason for me to call it an update.

In order to flash this ROM, you have to use ODIN. If you want to use Kies, wait for the ROM to be officialy available in tour country.

I don't know what you mean by "better support", but I actually have done what you said a few weeks ago. My NFC version og the Ace II is flashed with the MC8 ROM and the MB4 bootloader, so I can have 624MB of free RAM. However, some people reported that this amount of RAM is not a good idea, it may slow down the phone. I've not tested different ROM/bootloaders to confirm or not those feedbacks.
[Galaxy Ace II General] fabrixx:
I had too much imprudence damn me

Damn, you had told me before I would have kept my shiny JB with 550 Mb and only moved the tee

I thought that more RAM would change things much

Today I gave the phone to a friend who knows a technician samsung, I hope we can catch up, but now I'm afraid to update, i want know the cause..

I had upgraded to MB4 correctly and then after ME1 and instead of doing the first reboot I immediately pressed the combination to do a wipe

If I had to retrieve it I would not care most of this increase in ram, dammit.

Hello and thank you anyway for your help, I learned many things in disgrace and I think most will not miss thanks to you moonly.

Next time I would take a nexus that has no problems updating and I like
[Galaxy Ace II General] Moonly:
I think you were too impatient. You didn't let the phone do his job when rebooting, but your feedback will help some other people. ;)
[Galaxy Ace II General] fluffi444:
That was the same mistake I did: MB4 directly to ME1 will brick your Phone !!!

And I didn't made this "going fast into Recovery Mode" as you!

Mine is already repaired by an local service (in Germany) for just 20 EUR
[Galaxy Ace II General] fabrixx:
VERY THANKS!!

I remembered olny now that i fault from MB4 to PHE (not to ME1)

Then the fault is update from MB4--->ME1/PHE and not of my incaute operation mmm

Summarizing my situation i tryed:

HEIMDALL:

From official preinstalled GB 2.3.6 GB ---------------------------> ME1 Language selection Wizard fault

ODIN:

From ME1 -----------------------> Russian GB with success

From Russian GB ---------> ME1 with success

From ME1 -----------------------> PHE with succes

From PHE ------------------------> MB4 with success (i see logo wipe & reboot)

From MB4 -------------------------> PHE Bricked

Maybe the problem is in MB4 and i'm curiuous to know that MB2----->ME1/PHE brick the phone.

I hope that my repair is only 20 euro....but at this moment

in one way or another we had done to put the Jb but if you fix it I would not have the courage to update,

How to install and runs a Jelly Bean ROM on ICS hboot 1.24.0000 and lower

Firstly credit to atis112 for his workaround on how to install a JB ROM on ICS hboot

Secondly, this is NOT for noobs/newbies. You need at least understand some fastboot commands and you need to understand that installing JB ROM on ICS hboot you may have some bugs such as unable to mount sdcard to PC and maybe more that I'm not aware of (There is a workaround for sdcard mounting to PC which I will tell later). You can test a JB ROM and revert back to your favorite ROM anytime that you want.

How to :

Part 1 - Preparation

1. Download ICShboot_Toolkit.zip and extract it on your PC desktop

2. Download and put the myONEdx+_RC2.0.zip on your sdcard

3. Boot to Bootloader and open the ICShboot_Toolkit folder and run the Install Recovery.img.bat if you don't have TWRP recovery installed yet. If you do have it already installed, you can skip this step.

4. Boot to recovery (and make a nandroid backup of your current ROM)

Part 2 - Installing ROM

5. Select Wipe and make Factory Reset. Once complete, back to home and select Install and select myONEdx+_RC2.0.zip on your sdcard

6. Install myONEdx+_RC2.0.zip, when completed select Home (

DON'T

select Reboot System or Wipe cache/dalvik). Then select Reboot and click Bootloader (

DON'T

select System, Power Off or Recovery)

Part 3 - Installing boot.img and booting your DX

7. Open the ICShboot_Toolkit folder and run the Install Boot.img.bat

Just ignore what is written in the CMD as the boot.img is actually is installed to the recovery partition as the ICS boot partition is too small to be written with JB boot.img

8. Press Power once to go to hboot and select Recovery to boot your device

9. Enjoy your newly flashed myONEdx+ RC2.0 on ICS hboot

Notes

1. Workaround to mount sdcard as there is no PCSC on JB ROM, see : http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=40241468&postcount=214

2. You can use the APM whenever you need to reboot your DX, select reboot to recovery.

3. If you need to go to recovery to do your usual stuff, select reboot to bootloader, connect to PC and open the ICShboot_Toolkit folder and run the Install Recovery.img.bat again. Once completed, you need to reboot to bootloader and install boot.img again with the Install Boot.img.bat
