Hello! In this thread I'll show how to make your Galaxy Y usable in 2020s.

First, you should choose what Android version you want to use. Every version has it's cons and pros.​

Android 2.3.6 (Stock ROM)

These are the most stable android ROMs on Galaxy Y, since it's based off stock ROM! If you like the old TouchWiz UI and want great performance and stability of the cost of less apps, then this ROM is for you!

ROMs

T.R.R Lite Edition

CD ROVI 9.3 [D-OS]

Aurora V2

Vrom V1

Hyperion 9

Gingerbread CuStock

CD Rovi V9 Win 8.1 styled

Hyperion 9 ultimate

SL v2

Android 2.3.6 (CyanogenMod 7)

It's mostly the same as stock ROM, but with more features and higher performance (and customized kernel with stability)! If you don't like the old TouchWiz UI and you instead like CyanogenMod and others, then this ROM is for you!

ROMs

CyanogenMod 7 Lite edition

NexusMod x CM 10.1 themed JellyBean ROM

MIUI V7

Nougat ME ROM

CyanMobile eXperience 2.3.8

PotatoCM

MIUI v3

CyanogenMod 7.2 Optimized

Android 4.0.4 (CyanogenMod)

It's different than stock ROM. It contains new drivers, a new kernel, higher performance (of course if you use a custom kernel and modifications), and more features. If you want more app support, and a decent performance then this ROM is for you!

ROMs

CeruleanOS 9.3.x archives

TouchWiz Nature UX

Paranoid Android 1.5

LineageOS 9.0

CyanogenMod 9.1 BroadcomCM

CyanogenMod 9.2 Lite

Evo-x 4.2.0

CeruleanOS 9.4.x

Apps that still work on Galaxy Y​

Youtube Lite

This is the original YouTube apk with different servers for those who love the retro YouTube skin! This works on Android 2.3.6, Android 4.0.4, and even on Android 4.4.4!

Download

Youtube Lite

SkyTube Legacy

This is a YouTube client that doesn't need GApps to work since it's FOSS (Free and Open Source Software). It runs on ARMv6, so you can happily use this on your Galaxy Y!

In preferences->Audio and Video: set the video quality to 240p, the popup quality to 144p and video quality to 3gp.

Download

SkyTube Legacy

or on F-Droid... :)

​

Kiss Launcher

A simple, lightweight home launcher. This can also run on ARMv6 AFAIK, and it's compatible with Android 4.0.4. Pretty cool.

Download

Kiss Launcher

An2Linux

If you have a Linux PC, then you can sync notifications encrypted by TLS. Compatible with ARMv6.

Download

An2Linux

Facebook Lite

This version of Facebook is compatible with Android 2.2 and up. It loads faster, runs on 2G (which is usable for our Galaxy Y + this means you can use it at limited spots where internet is slow)

Download

Facebook Lite

I guess Skytube Legacy changed. I can't find the

There's no Audio and Video in the preference now.
[Galaxy Y GT-S5360 General] notnoelchannel:
Hmm. what options are there? i can't check it right now.
[Galaxy Y GT-S5360 General] Agret:
I used to use Messenger Lite on my phone until a few months ago Facebook stopped support for it and you can't use it anymore.

Not sure if Facebook Lite still works or not.
[Galaxy Y GT-S5360 General] zonure22:
Network and Downloads that's the option for resolution now
[Galaxy Y GT-S5360 General] notnoelchannel:
Facebook Lite works, i tested it. I'll check messenger lite too and if it doesn't work i'll delete it from the thread.
[Galaxy Y GT-S5360 General] zonure22:
Facebook Lite works but only version "98.0.0.33.170-115105195" can login properly any other version above that won't have text field for email might be rom issue but not sure. After you log in you can slowly upgrade it (yes slowly meaning update 1 version at a time to prevent forced close issue) my maximum version tried is "147.0.0.10.114-155219493"

Also youtube lite link is dead

My device info

Custom Rom: Cerulean OS 9.4

Android version: 4.0.4

Do you have the stock firmware file or even a link?
[Galaxy Y GT-S5360 General] HayfiXD:
Here.
[Galaxy Y GT-S5360 General] zonure22:
Thank you just flashed stock rom and tested it. Tbh I didn't expect this to work at all but I'm wrong.
[Galaxy Y GT-S5360 General] notnoelchannel:
I just checked this on my Galaxy Ace 3 that I got and you're right. I'll take it down from the thread right quick!
[Galaxy Y GT-S5360 General] notnoelchannel:
I thought the same lol and turns out it's very real. Thanks to the one who ported it:D
[Galaxy Y GT-S5360 General] zonure22:
I can't make skytube and other similar apps to work so I just assumed YouTube lite won't work as well 😂
[Galaxy Y GT-S5360 General] HayfiXD:
Same thought. SkyTube opens and shows videos fine but when playing it crashes.
[Galaxy Y GT-S5360 General] Manav Harsana:
seems to work for me in CM9 roms, didn't test on cm11, make sure to enable 'old video formats' it seems to fix the crash
[Galaxy Y GT-S5360 General] Manav Harsana:
Exact steps to get it to work are:

Under

1. Preferences > Video Player > Video Player to use: Legacy

2. Under the same section scroll down and Disable try newer video formats

3. Under Preferences > Network and Downloads > Video resolution set max. resolution everywhere as 240p and min. resolution as 240p or 144p.

4. (Optional) Under Preferences > Sponserblock enanble sponserblock, Under Preferences > Others > Return Dislike counter

If you face network issues try disabling Newpipe API under preferences > others

and to watch videos in 360p or 360p+ resolutions just set the desired resolution you want to download the video in under, Networks and Downloads > video resolution for downloads > Highest Video Resolution and set it to anything from 360p to 1080p (though 1080p and 720p resolutions do lag, I'd recommend 480p as it seems to work fine. You can now download any video you linke by long pressing the thumbnail and clicking download. After that just open the video in mxplayer and thats it!
[Galaxy Y GT-S5360 General] zonure22:
Mine just keep crashing when using legacy player idk if it's because of the rom or the version of the app I used.

Edit: I just read your reply before this I'll try doing the steps you gave.
[Galaxy Y GT-S5360 General] zonure22:
Using MXPlayer to play 480p videos causes audio issues like random mute, and audio delay. I use older version of MXPlayer that has a separate codec apk the .
[Galaxy Y GT-S5360 General] Manav Harsana:
audio delay is a thing I do run into but never had random mutes, which version of mxplayer are you using?
[Galaxy Y GT-S5360 General] zonure22:
v1.7.41 I think the random mutes happens when audio is playing continuously and video is stuttering. I think it just stops the audio at some point to wait for the video to render. After letting it play for like 5-10 mins the audio become delayed.

Edit: I currently use stock based rom since we use it as FM/Music player for now.

Edit 2: Fixed the video stutter, random audio loss, and lessen the audio delay by moving the MXPlayer to internal also changed to SW audio. Changed rom to CM7 Rom too.
[Galaxy Y GT-S5360 General] xXLambSauceXx:
The google drive link got removed :(

Edit: I found another APK, but now it says "There was a problem starting up. Please check you network connection and system time." I've already got my Galaxy Ace connected to my wifi but it still can't connect to yt

DON'T FLASH GAPPS, THEY'RE ALREADY INCLUDED

Flashing instructions: (as there is no fully functional 3rd party recovery, manual flashing process is used)

- Go to recovery and do restore factory or format data

- Extract the zip file and open Terminal/cmd in the folder

- Boot the device to bootloader mode and Connect the device to PC

- Run command sudo ./flash-all.sh (Linux) or Run flash-all.bat as admin (Windows)

- reboot

If any command fails, open flash-all script and run the commands manually

Troubleshooting:

- Do not active mi protection in package installer, it won't break anything but it's useless

- Use this camera

- The music play back in the main speaker may glitch sometimes, but playing through headphones work fine.

- The boot time should take like 7-9 minuets, don't panic

Anyone tried this? I cant seem to get it to work as it just reboots back into recovery after everything. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks
[Google Pixel 4a ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] Ay0n:
can u tell me your flashing process? did u do factory reset before flashing? also did u flashed the patch zip after flashing the port?
[Google Pixel 4a ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] al223:
Yeh factory reset and flashed patched first time reboots and then when I try reboot again it boots into recovery. I have tried on windows and Linux but same on both.
[Google Pixel 4a ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] Ay0n:
so the system boots fine first? then when u reboot it goes to recovery?
[Google Pixel 4a ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] al223:
No first time it comes on to black screen for a few seconds then reboots and then into recovery
[Google Pixel 4a ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] Ay0n:
when do u flash the patch zip? after factory reset ? or after flashing the port ?

also do u use telegram?
[Google Pixel 4a ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] al223:
Factory reset, run sudo ./flash-all.sh and then flash patch.
[Google Pixel 4a ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] Ay0n:
ok do this,

- do factory reset

- flash this rom https://sourceforge.net/projects/ev...p1a.231105.003-12060004-OFFICIAL.zip/download , boot it fully. (this will activate the a14 firmware)

- goto recovery do factory reset.

- adb sideload the patch zip

-goto fastboot (advanced>reboot to fastboot)

- thn open terminal / cmd in the hyperos folder, do command: ./fastboot flash super super.img

- after completion reboot.
[Google Pixel 4a ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] al223:
Thank you that worked
[Google Pixel 4a ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] Ay0n:
nice, many thanks for the feed back, friend. Will fix the installer according to your results
[Google Pixel 4a ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] kodycdrews:
I tried flashing with the OP instructions, but never got past the white google boot screen (waited about 20 minutes just to be safe). Then I followed these instructions, but it just keeps rebooting into recovery after trying to boot. Any thoughts?
[Google Pixel 4a ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] Ay0n:
ok try this,

- do factory reset

- flash this rom https://sourceforge.net/projects/ev...p1a.231105.003-12060004-OFFICIAL.zip/download , boot it fully. (this will activate the a14 firmware)

- goto recovery do factory reset.

- adb sideload the patch zip

-goto fastboot (advanced>reboot to fastboot)

- thn open terminal / cmd in the hyperos folder, do command: ./fastboot flash super super.img

- after completion reboot.

These steps also cause issues for u?
[Google Pixel 4a ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] kodycdrews:
When I followed those steps, that's when it kept rebooting itself back into recovery. I tried it a couple times just to make sure I didn't miss anything, but was never able to get it to successfully boot up.
[Google Pixel 4a ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] Ay0n:
after flashing the android 14 rom did u boot the rom fully? the evolution one?
[Google Pixel 4a ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] Ay0n:
also did u do restore factory from recovery?
[Google Pixel 4a ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] kodycdrews:
Yes to both. When I booted up the Evo 14 rom, I went through the initial set up and everything just to make sure I gave it enough time. It's just a back up device, so I don't mind wiping or anything if you need me to try something else!
[Google Pixel 4a ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] Ay0n:
that's weird, ok no issue will be updating the build so will try to address this issue.
[Samsung Galaxy S22] Exorone:
Hi, guys, I'm interested in fixing this Korean S22. It's an LDU. I need to flash another model's firmware with security patch lower than 1/3/2023 for removing the LDU flag. So far I tried the S901E INS but without success, I'm trying not to unlock the bootloader because process for fix the device need Knox Tobe not tripped.

Specifically I tried:

-Modded Odin and SamFW for flashing

-Using the PIT file from Korean model for allowing Indian firmware to be flashed

-Combined Korean version BL file and the rest files from Indian version (so far the most successful try, failed because of bootloader locked)

I'm thinking about flashing an Engineer EFS with seems to remove the flag but also removes the imei, which I don't think its a good idea losing.

Hope anyone could help me with this one.

[Samsung Galaxy S8 Questions and Answers] ugur010:
Helpp :/
[Samsung Galaxy S8 Questions and Answers] ace2nutzer:
You need to wipe data.

Then you will be able to boot Android.

Then you can try to enable OEM-Unlock in developer settings.

After that you can flash twrp with odin.

Then flash again dm-verity.fix and wipe data in twrp. (Format /data and confirm by typing: "yes".).

Now you can boot Android.

And now you should be able to flash a custom kernel and / or Magisk to get better performance and root.
[Samsung Galaxy S8 Questions and Answers] ugur010:
the device does not turn on, I have tried many roms, it does not come out of recovery mode in any way, can you help?
[Samsung Galaxy S8 Questions and Answers] ace2nutzer:
After you wipe data and try to boot, you need some patience .... because it can take around 10 minutes till you see the setup wizard.

If this doesn't work for you, your phone is really messed up.

Only way to fix it is to download latest stock ROM and flash it with ODIN.

This should work even with OEM / FRP Lock ON.
[Samsung Galaxy S8 Questions and Answers] ugur010:
I have installed a lot of roms for about 2 months, it stays stuck in recovery mode with dm-verifty, I have installed the latest rum, there is no rum I have not tried.
[Samsung Galaxy S8 Questions and Answers] ace2nutzer:
Okay, then it's soft bricked.

Bring it to the Samsung Service Center.
[Samsung Galaxy S8 Questions and Answers] ugur010:
I have my own service, there is a fix software for this, I'm sure there is someone on the forum who knows the solution.
[Samsung Galaxy S8 Questions and Answers] ace2nutzer:
Then why you don't fix it by yourself?

My friend listen, I'm a kernel developer and I'm developing stuff for the S8 / S8+ / Note 8, for years. Your bootloader is fully locked and in this state the phone only accepts original firmware from Samsung. That means you need to download latest firmware from sammobile and then flash it with your computer using ODIN while your phone is in "Download" mode.

The reason why your phone don't boot Android and stuck in recovery is likely because there is something wrong with your /data or /system partition. If you flash the original firmware, then it'll automatically format all the partitions and the original ROM will be flashed.

The dm-verity error doesn't matter at all and will be fixed as well.

So now you get it? 😉
[Samsung Galaxy S8 Questions and Answers] ugur010:
I tried all of them but I couldn't fix the device.
[Samsung Galaxy S8 Questions and Answers] ace2nutzer:
OK then it's probably even hard bricked!

Sometimes it's possible to workaround broken hardware by software, (I already did that many times) but in your case it's not possible.

Can you show us what happens when you flash the original firmware with ODIN? Show us your ODIN settings and post the log, then we can check if something goes wrong during the flash process.

Note: DO NOT USE HOME_CSC ... use the normal CSC ....

Hello,

Can you please help me find a solution with my head unit i recently buy from ALiExpress.

The issue is that I'm getting every time I black screen, and I have to do a manual reset by the pushing the rst button every time I insert the keys. and when I turn off my vehicle the screen is off, but if i insert the keys again I'm getting the black screen again

Knowing that the radio is On and the head unit is responding when i touch the screen parts it can change the channel or get to home, meaning that the head is operational but with a black screen.

please find bellow the informations of my headunit

Hello,

What do you think about battery saving apps?

In the past used Greenify which is no longer developed (last update 10/2022).

Later switcher on Naptime, which was removed from Play Store.

Now I found Hibernator.

Can It boost battery live?
[Google Pixel 7a] GalaxyA325G:
Personally, I think there's no substitute for a bigger battery (over 5 amp hours is a good starting point) nor for a new battery (two or three years and the 500 charge/discharge cycles have probably happened).

Of course there are battery diagnostic apps, which may help pinpoint a problem if it's an app that's eating your juice...

[Google Pixel 7a] htc-8925:
if youre rooted use an app like kernel toolbox or androoster. Kernel tweaking for battery saving can be every bit as good or better than a large battery, and can make a large battery even better
[Google Pixel 7a] rei20:
Could you expand on that or perhaps link to a guide you used?
[Google Pixel 7a] htc-8925:
I've been away for a bit. If you just do a little research into the software I mention there are presets in them that make the device more economical on power consumption and achieve a snappier and more responsive UX as well or if you know what you are doing you can sometimes tweak kernel perams manually or find other presets and apply them.

[Windows 11] MLFL:
I wanted to report on a successful installation of Windows 11 Pro on a laptop with an "unsupported" processor. I used the instructions in this QXDA article:

How to install Windows 11 on almost any unsupported PC

Want Windows 11 but have an unsupported computer? Here's how to install Windows 11 even if your PC doesn't meet the minimum requirements.

www.xda-developers.com

I was running Win10 Pro on a 2017 Lenovo IdeaPad330 15 with an "unsupported" AMD Ryzen 3 2200U processor. The processor is certainly powerful enough and I'm running 2x the required memory. But Microsoft has blacklisted the processor for Win11. I actually used each of the methods in the above article, and the one that worked flawlessly was the last one, using the command line and the author's command string.

Note: I chose to keep all of my apps & settings instead of a clean installation, in case I needed to roll back. I ignored the warning about not being able to receive Windows updates on an unsupported device (I am receiving auto updates!). But when installation starts, be sure to choose to install the ISO without updating during installation -- I tried the update option first and the installation froze. Just install the ISO "as is." After the ISO successfully installed, Windows 11 DID look for updates and installed them! All I had to do was uninstall some new bloatware that comes with Win11. As I type, the "unsupported" Win11 Pro update is running A-OK. Thank you for this installation article. I wonder how many people have been forced to by new computers, because of Microsoft's blacklisting of processors.
[Windows 11] ianreesdavies:
download iso, then latest rufus. rufus bypasses cpu and tpm wen installing to usb. usb must be 8gb or above. i installed win 11 pro 64bit on 2 old desktops and an old lenovo laptop a couple of hours ago. you can also bypass the need for a microsoft account and use a local one, bitlocker bypass etc, all prompted after clicking start. childsplay. recommended by a big kid obviously.
[Windows 11] null0seven:
I use Rufus to install windows on my friends PC's. Latest version, 4.5 help me bypass all BS from micro soft.

After installing Windows i use Chriss Titus script and CLEAN windows from windows usseless apps.

Processes in Task manager go from 145-150 to 90 in IDLE.

On an old PC, a SSD and dual chanel ram is a must. Of course, old but decent hardware.
