I had the Same problem when i first got my ace and there were 2 things that worked for me.

1: check if there is a software update. I got one and the problem was gone .

2: set your wifi up with a static (?) Ip adres. (Not sure how its called in english lol) IT should be in the advanced settings on the stock Rom. One problem on this; IT only works for your home wifi so connecting to an random open wifi Will probaly not work :(

Hope it works :)

Hi,

Could anyone please help me? I rooted my samsung galaxy ace and after that, I tried to install custom rom in it.

And now, my cell stop working and it stops at the cell's Logo.. i.e. black screen with a logo in it.

Please help me if there is any way that I could repair my phone from my system ?

[Galaxy Ace S5830 General] SMillerNL:
No, this is probably a softbrick. So get into downloadmode and flash a stock rom with ODIN.
[Galaxy Ace S5830 General] adambika:
Oh yes that damn bricking thing..

When I had this i couldn't use ODIN,but I lost my warranty because of the root

Anyway I gave it in to the service and I was very lucky because the guy at the desk told me they did it just because I was likeable

Try odin anyway or I hope you will be as lucky as me :p

[Galaxy Ace S5830 General] [N]ano®:
this is just soft brick, dont panic, Google for Odin and restore your phone to a stock ROM, then download this mediafire.com/?37ueaag898ko3gg and place it on your SD card. Then hold power and volume down to recovery, install this. After those, find some custom ROMs to install, they are really good, much better than the Stocks and you dont have to root your phone by yourself :cyclops:

Hi all ....OK so I have rooted & installed ROMs on about 20 different devices

A buddy of mine gave me his Galaxy Ace to install a ROM

I assume the device is rooted ....I attempted to get root using the SuperOneClick method

The application says I am rooted ...but Titanium Backup doesn't agree

& BusyBox doesn't seem to install properly

No matter what I do ...I try to flash a Recovery or Rom

I always get ..Installation Aborted

Should I try using Odin & not Recovery to flash

Or is it useless ??

The device is currently running GB 2.3.4

Thanx

Galaxy Ace Memory

I really like this phone.

However the memory problems are driving me to distraction.

I have tried all that stuff about moving Apps over to the SD card.

Whenever my Ace updates its software, stupid youtoob, which I never use and don't want, downloads updates which kill the phone.

I have tried to root the phone ... its an Australian TELSTRA unlocked phone ... to absolutely no avail.

Why does Android try to squeeze so much in a such a small memory footprint.
[Galaxy Ace S5830 General] SMillerNL:
Mostly, Samsung does. On custom roms the memory management is better.
[Galaxy Ace S5830 General] calvinhara:
Have you tried CF-root 3.7. I rooted mine locked by Telstra, and mine is on Myth2 custom rom now.

Calvin
[Galaxy Ace S5830 General] SMillerNL:
With that, you don't need root to use a custom rom.
[Galaxy Ace S5830 General] calvinhara:
If you don't root it, how do you flash the custom rom from the branded stock rom?
[Galaxy Ace S5830 General] SMillerNL:
Make sure you have the cwm5 package on your SD card.

Go to recovery by holding power + home when booting.

Flash CWM5

Reboot into recovery.

Flash rom through cwm5

Hello Guys

I have really big problem with my phone.

I tried to sort boot animation in that way:

here's the steps :

things u need :

-ROOTED ACE

-ROOT Explorer installed or similiar app

-rename the animation you download to "bootanimation.zip"

-paste the bootanimation.zip you downloaded into your sdcard,anywhere is fine

-use root explorer open the system/bin

-look for the "samsungloop" file, move it to your sdcard first, just in case, you can either move it or copy it again to another place, (in my case, i copy it into system/ and another to my sdcard)

-go to system/bin ,look for "bootanimation", and rename it to "samsungloop", if you use ROOT explorer, don't forget to change the previlege first, change R/W permission first to R/O,,,(the bootanimation is not the file where you rename your animation you downloaded to be bootanimation.zip)

-put the "bootanimation.zip" (the file you downloaded and rename it's names) to

system/media

-in system/media, there are 2 files if i'm not mistaken, bot of the files are with the extension .qmq, just rename it with root explorer to .qm extension file

-reboot your galaxy ACE

-done

But something gone wrong...

When I start my phone there showing animation, ant thats it.

That animation is showing again ang again, and my phone not turning on.

What I can do?
[Galaxy Ace S5830 General] AaronvAce:
Do you have a nandroid backup? If so restore it.

Ps, are you on stock rom when you tried this?
[Galaxy Ace S5830 General] Leonkrwawy:
Yes I am on stuck system.

Unfortunatelu I behave like fool, because I didn't made backup :(

Honestly I don't know that to do...
[Galaxy Ace S5830 General] AaronvAce:
Can you get in recovery?
[Galaxy Ace S5830 General] SMillerNL:
Just should have replaced the original bootanimation.zip with the new one. That way, all would've been fine. Now you better restore a backup.

King of the mashed potatoes©
[Galaxy Ace S5830 General] Leonkrwawy:
Yes I can get to recovery.

Unfortunately, I wrote it, a bocame like fool and I dodn't made backup. :(

So now I have problem.

Samsung Galaxy Ace Battery Issue

My ace's battery is not even lasting half day even with no major use. (Just some calls). Using code *#*#4636#*#* mentioned in one of the post here i checked for my battery health. The health is good but the battery voltage is shown as 3.0V . I suppose it is 5.0V for Ace.

Is my battery faulty ? or there is some other problem? Also please suggest any way to find the correct battery health.

Un-Root Galaxy Ace to Install FOTA Update to 2.3.6

Apologies if this has been covered, but I simply can't find the answer among so many threads.

I have a rooted Galaxy Ace GT-S5830B, which I rooted with AceGingerRoot file.

I received a FOTA notification for update to 2.3.6, but the update fails, likely because it's rooted. And it can't be done by Kies either.

So I thought of un-rooting, doing the FOTA, and then re-rooting.

Questions:

Will un-rooting allow FOTA or Kies updates?

Once updated to 2.3.6, can I root again with the same AceGingerRoot file?

Most important: how can I un-root the phone? I didn't find anything that seems trustworthy.

Thanks in advance.
[Galaxy Ace S5830 General] SMillerNL:
Root has no influence on FOTA or KIES

Unrooting is done by flashing a Stock ROM through ODIN
[Galaxy Ace S5830 General] Mickets73:
Rooting doesn't affect FOTA or KIES?

Really? Well, I read in other places that it does. But if it doesn't, then what could be the reason for FOTA and KIES not working on my device? It's the stock ROM, just that it's rooted.

Thanks.
[Galaxy Ace S5830 General] Smokey Mc Pot:
On my rooted ace GT-S5830i I had some issues to update with kies but eventually worked.

-First I backed up my phone to the laptop.

And I reset the phone to factory.

-I turned off the USB debug (development).

-I uninstalled Kies from my laptop and downloaded a new copy from Samsung.

-I installed Kies again a started the program.

-Than I connected my phone to the laptop and the laptop downloaded the correct drivers.

-Eventually kies installed the update at the second attempt.

And I ended up having to root the phone again after the update.

My advise to you is to look here on xda developers for (the best root option). As the one I used that gives you ways to unroot the phone if you need to.
[Galaxy Ace S5830 General] Mickets73:
I thought of resetting to factory settings, but I am using the stock ROM, and revert to factory settings won't remove root anyway.

I made backup with ClockWorkMod. If I reset to factory settings, if I need to restore to previous settings will restoring the CWM backup do that? I mean, can I install reset totally or even install another ROM, and revert with the backup I made with CWM?

If this is the case, then in theory I could just flash the whole stock 2.3.6 ROM and restore the CWM backup of 2.3.4 if necessary.
[Galaxy Ace S5830 General] Smokey Mc Pot:
I mentioned to back up your phone just in case, something goes wrong and you loose any data.

But if you not comfortable in resetting the phone (can't blame you for that) try as it is.

Resetting the phone will not remove the root.

I used kies to update my rooted ace and worked fine.

All I lost was the root after the update.

But for what I read,

The majority of people just flash with (Odin).

Maybe is the best way to do it.

Hope I helped in any way.
[Galaxy Ace S5830 General] SMillerNL:
Yes, CWM will restore the full phone state.
[Galaxy Ace S5830 General] Mickets73:
Hmmm... great. So I'll either do the factory reset and try FOTA. Or learn how to use Odin.

As soon as I have a spare hour for it.

Messed up my sons phone!! Oops!

Apologies if this is in the wrong place.

Ok, I am a bit worried here. Very stupidly I tried to modify my sons Samsung galaxy ace s5830. I had already installed clockworkmod and partitioned the sd card. I was trying to create more space for apps than the measly 158mb.

He is off to the USA tomorrow for a couple of months and he wanted more apps, even more stupidly he trusted me thinking I knew what I was doing.

Anyway I downloaded the 7.2 stable version of the cyanogenmod from here followed the instructions (i think). and ended up with an installation aborted message, it reads

E: can't open /sdcard/cm-7.2.0cooper.zip

Now the phone will not reboot, it is stuck in a reboot loop.

I have googled about a tried a few suggestions such as clearing, cache, dalvik cache ect

I really should have left this well alone, looking at it now I am well out of my depth, and before anyone says it yes probably too old lol :eek:

Any help very much appreciated to get me out of this hole, or I will have to go buy him a new phone tomorrow before he flies out!
