Works great, but in my case gapps not yet working

After three days of experimenting and trying, I managed it to get CM11 (cm-11.0.0-RC9-GT-S5830i-cooperve) running on my GT-S5830i. I had to flash the Galaxy Y modem fw from here to get the SIM working.

After flashing the last nightly (cm-11-20140906-NIGHTLY-cooperve) I wasn't unable to pass the welcome wizard, nor without sim nor with various modem fws. After selecting a language the setup wizard crashed. After that I decided to use the RC9 in the meantime. That works great, but i have still a small problem:

I can't get the Play Store running. I took the minimal gapps package like described in the first post (Gapps link by mardon for ace). I always get the error message that the store can't contact the google server. But WiFi and mobile data is working perfectly fine. Has anyone experienced the same issue and got it resolved?

Thanks in advance.

In my case it helped when I disabled the pin on the sim card with another phone (so the s5830i will not ask you for your pin) to bypass this screen.
[Galaxy Ace S5830i General] DerZerleger:
Ok, thanks, I'll try that then. Can reenable the pin after booting successfully into CM11 once or does it need to stay disabled?
[Galaxy Ace S5830i General] patrol31:
Dont flash gapps right after flashing cm11. Make it boot the first time without gapps. Then, reboot into recovery. Mount system and data then flash gapps.

Lately I've had errors with the audio, the player still has the headphones that mistake and that I'm on the RC10 and even with that mistake, as with the cm-11-20140913-NIGHTLY-cooperve run that error. Even without being able to use my SIM and install the modem Galaxy Y, without signal response. And I hope someone can help me with another modem. :rolleyes:
[Galaxy Ace S5830i General] HannibalLec:
Ok dude, there are 2 ways to know if that bug will or will never be fixed:

1) Wait untill news from Psyke83.

OTA update error

I seem to get an error when i try to do an OTA update to RC10 (something to do with CalenderProvider.apk). Can i just update manually and if i can, how do i do it?

Thank you,

Mokustus :)
[Galaxy Ace S5830i General] patrol31:
You can. Download the whole rom and just flash it over your current build. You can factory reset first for a clean install if you want. RC and nightly builds link on the 1st post.
[Galaxy Ace S5830i General] Mokustus:
Okay. First i installed over the old build and it didn't work properly. (the touch buttons didn't work and the keyboard didn't appear) so i did a wipe and now it works perfectly. :)
[Galaxy Ace S5830i General] Luiz Guilherme Pereira:
haha, if psyke83 did not yet, how do you think that i can do ? and sorry, i just asked cos it may be mentioned by him in another other post that i didn't saw, sorry!!

hi xda people

I was using the latest stable cm11 and I downgraded to stock ROM it gave me a boot loop

tried wipe data reset in stock recovery it shows

mount_failed rfs error cannot mound /data (it is not shown like this)

tried multiformator v1 (no luck)

thanks in advance
[Galaxy Ace S5830i General] patrol31:
Going back to stock is possible only through Odin.

"Notes:

Older ROMs will no longer be compatible

with the MTD recovery and yaffs2-

formatted partitions. If you wish to use a

stock/modded Gingerbread ROM, CM7 or

CM9, you should wait until MTD versions

of these ROMs become available.

If you want to go back to a non-MTD

ROM, you must flash an entire stock ROM

(CSC+MODEM+PDA) via Odin, or else

your partitions will be stuck in MTD

format."

See 1st post.
[Galaxy Ace S5830i General] as9333:
I did restore via Odin

it gave be a boot loop

but now I can boot into any cm 7 or miui rom
[Galaxy Ace S5830i General] patrol31:
You can try using pit file when flashing through Odin to repartition system. Do it at your own risk.
[Galaxy Ace S5830i General] sabrinaf:
I tried the same installation (same build of cm11 and same version of gapps) and I just wanted to let you know that what you mentioned exactly solved the problem. That worked like a charm! Thank you very much!

---------- Post added at 04:26 PM ---------- Previous post was at 04:20 PM ----------

A few days ago I tried again flashing the new rc10. It works for me a lot better as rc9. Initially I had some problems flashing cm11 and had to please for help here in the forum. Because of that I decided to write a small step by step guide for all the people who may have run into the same issues like I did.

1. Start into original recovery mode by pressing Home + Vol up + Power.

2. When CWM (ClockWorkMod) starts up to at least ver 6.0.1.2 continue with step 5.

3. When original recovery (Samsung?) starts up, then we have to flash CWM first. Download CWM for GT-S5830i (link in the first post I think) and put it on the SD-Card. I had some problems scrolling down the list and go to page 2 when selecting the zip afterwars so make a folder on the SD-Card and name it somehow like AAA... (so it appears on the first positions) and in it put the zip file with CWM (unextracted from the download).

4. In original recovery mode select the downloaded CWM zip file and apply it.

5. Do a full backup of the system so you always can go back if something goes wrong. I never tested that case, so please don't blame me if that doesn't work. If you are worried about losing any important data, put that onto the sd and backup that manually just to be sure.

6. Next I flashed the Samsung Galaxy Y modem firmware via odin. At the moment I don't find the link where I downloaded that. I think you can google that, if I find the link I will post it here.

7. Afterwards we have to apply the yaffs partition format. Do a complete WIPE (wipe data/factory reset + wipe cache partition + format /system partition). At my first tries I didn't realize that this is mandatory so I always got this famous error 7.

8. Then I flashed the CWM.

9. After flashing I removed the SIM and disabled the PIN code with another phone because I think I read that in some builds there were/are problems with enabling the SIM while there is an active PIN lock. I'm not sure if that is still the case in rc10 - I just didn't test that.

10. Then I started booted the first time into CM11. The first time that took quite a lot of time (5-10 minutes) - so just be patient.

11. After booting up and closing the welcom assistant. I shut down the device and booted again into CWM while pressing the keys described in step 1. Then I flashed the gapps package. This time with RC10 I didn't take the gapps package from the first post in this thread, but the updated gapps package by pskye83.

In that case you don't have to mount partitions or something like that. You just have to flash the zip and let the magic happen.

12. Afterwards I had to reboot the device and everything worked fine as expected.

I hope this guide helped someone. Please correct me if I said something wrong.
[Galaxy Ace S5830i General] hueb_s:
What about performance in RC10 compared to RC9? It was very laggy, so I was forced (by WAF) to go back to an Android 4.1 ROM, which is significantely faster...
[Galaxy Ace S5830i General] sabrinaf:
Af first I have to say that I'm not using the phone by myself so I can't tell you how it feels in every days usage. But from what I saw during setting the device up within CM11, RC10 is faster than RC9. But I haven't used any other ROM except CM11 RC9, RC10 and the original Samsung TouchWiz Android: Because of that I can't tell you what potential this device has. But that is an interesting question. I'd also think about switching to another ROM when the device in that case would become faster. Let us know if you have tested that.
[Galaxy Ace S5830i General] unseen_hz:

I tried to restore via Odin

But I saw a error

PLS HELP

I want to revert it back so badly
[Galaxy Ace S5830i General] HannibalLec:
If you want revert to stock you should flash entire stock rom package (PDA/MODEM/CSC), not the package wich sammobile provides to you (only 1 file), if yoy don't have a splited stock rom you should split it yourself with split2fus.
[Galaxy Ace S5830i General] as9333:
I have stock ROM which is splitted by me and used several times

it shows by custom binary is 1

When reverting to stock rom using Modem+PDA+CSC it shows success but it gives a error like RQT close

I WAS IN KITKAT CM11 I CAN BOOT INTO ANY CM7 BUT IT GETS RESETED AFTER EVERY RESTART because the /data is not mounting nor formating

[Galaxy Ace S5830i General] unseen_hz:
Any EXT format can work I think so EXT 4 is the best. Overclocking is generally not supported due to this phone's BCM21553 core, so no you cannot overclock with this rom's kernel or any other kernel.

Like I said - I have not tested it because I do not have your device - anything you do you do at your own risk!

The files I provided are the latest stock rom firmware and baseband files for your device - and they would prove useful even if you have to use them to revert to your phones actual modem or stock rom files in the future

also I have also said that the galaxy y modem files are on my firmware thread if you need them

You probably installed an incompatible gapps package that was too large for your /system partition. In addition, Link2SD will have done some damage to system files that will need to be repaired. Download the latest full OTA package and re-install it via CWM; however, depending on the gapps package that you installed, you may need to manually format /system before you install the OTA package, or else the installation may not be successful.

You should use the gapps package that I have cited in my development topic, and avoid Link2SD if you want to use delta updates. Only simple2ext_mod is guaranteed not to break updates.
