Thanks..Strange that mine doesn't even show that an update is available on Win7.

The PDA is S5830DDKA7 and CSC: S5830ODDKA7

EDIT: I'm assuming that it doesn't require putting the phone in download mode or anything. I'm just connecting it on USB debugging mode.
[Galaxy Ace S5830 General] forall.sri:
One more thing that comes up to my mind...

Even i faced this issue, at times, in Win 7 i did not get that there is an update available, but later i found, the sequence of connections creates this prob.

The sequence i followed to get this done.

1. Make sure you are connected to internet

2. Before starting Kies connect your SGA with cable to the PC

3. Then start Kies

I think now it should show up.

Edit: Yes you don't have to put it in download mode, just the USB debugging mode, with USB storage turned ON would be fine.
[Galaxy Ace S5830 General] crazycalvin:
No luck yet! :confused:

Followed the above sequence.Tried both debug and mass storage mode.
[Galaxy Ace S5830 General] forall.sri:
Well! Now it sounds really strange.

What is the KIES version ur using?

Edit: Hey in Win 7, check your firewall settings, whether Kies is allowed?
[Galaxy Ace S5830 General] crazycalvin:
Kies version 1.5.3_10124

Tried updating Kies but it says "latest version". Now trying to update the drivers. If this doesn't work, I would d/l Kies from Samsung website. Will keep you posted. Thanks for your help buddy!
[Galaxy Ace S5830 General] imranaryan:

Hi to all, I am new here had a query to ask frm experts,

I had rooted samsung ace mobile with 8gb sd card,I had installed almost apps in my sd card.My query is, if i update my phones firmware to latest one.All my apps which i installed in my sd card will be there only or i have to re-install it again?i am asking this b'coz when i tried to backup all my apps via ASTRO file manager its only backed up only those apps which is installed in phone memory.
[Galaxy Ace S5830 General] forall.sri:
Hmm hmm.. So thats the prob... Pls update Kies from Samsung site.

Its KIES 2.0 now.. :)
[Galaxy Ace S5830 General] forall.sri:
Which is the method ur gonna use to upgrade the firmware.

I installed most apps in my SD card, then upgraded firmware through Kies (Phone Unrooted) still it retained all apps.

I am really not able to confirm whether this would work for u too, coz, when we upgrade through Kies, there is a message stating that all data would be deleted from Device.
[Galaxy Ace S5830 General] imranaryan:
I think Samsung Should Find A fix with win7 Issue.. or release a newer version of kies..
[Galaxy Ace S5830 General] crazycalvin:
Alrighty...downloaded the latest version (strange that 'check for update' dint tell me I'm outdated). Added Kies to Windows firewall and finally Kies informed me that firmware update is available. :-).

Now, while updating the kies stops with the msg "Disk does not have sufficient space. Need 3000 MB' !!!

Not sure if this again Win7 issue but I do seem to have enough space on my C drive. I even changed the drive to a different one under preferences but no luck.

Looks like Samsung neds to fix the Kies soon. Anyways, thanks for your help guys. I would find out a win xp machine tomm and update the firmware.

[Galaxy Ace S5830 General] sahilkhurana:
For me the version is Kies_2.0.0.11032_12. I am not sure about the extra _9 that it reports for you.

Couple of things that you can try if u haven't done so far:

1. Uninstall Kies and Re-install it by downloading from the website.

2. Troubleshoot compatibility by right clicking on Kies.exe

3. I am not sure if this will work but try to boot in Safe Mode and then try running Kies.
[Galaxy Ace S5830 General] drshafi:
Thanks for the reply mate, i usually upgrade with kies only.one another thing in spite of installing all apps in my sd card why is the phone memory went less.2 days back there was 74mb available in my phone than i installed 3-4 apps in my sd card now it's 56mb available in my phone memory.What is the funda behind this?

Rooting : Gingerbread 2.3.3 on Galaxy ACE

Seems no solution for rooting Gingerbread 2.3.3 on Galaxy ACE. Thinking to revert back to previous version.
[Galaxy Ace S5830 General] vertcam9:
Gingerbread 2.3.3 - successfully flashed

I have successfully flashed my SGA with the leaked Gingerbread 2.3.3

Here is my obeservations so far:

1. Overall system performance seems much faster than Froyo KC1

2. There is a lag when opening the phone from sleep mode (screen turns on almost 1 second behind when pressing the home button)

3. In Froyo, you can specify the Network to use GSM or WCDMA only options, currently the GB option does not have this. (work around go to Phone information via *#*#4636#*#* and force the phone to connect WCDMA only, very useful if 3G signal is weak on your area and you need faster connection)

4. Nothing changed from Samsung Touchwiz, i replaced my launcher with Go Launcher EX.

5. Available Internal Phone memory is much more compare to Froyo (is this because GB has better coding or less pre-installed apps than Froyo)

6. Camera is indeed suffering auto-focus when saving picture (it focuses when you press it, but when the picture is saved it is not clear. Workaround install other Camera Apps)

Overall impression I will keep the GB running on my ACE for the meantime, it feels like faster (or is it because i know it is GB), but the level of configuration feels like it is a Froyo running on a version prior to KC1. Can't wait for the official Gingerbread release.

Note: Flashed using Odin, Windows Vista, File from Samfirmware.com

I know that the SGA (2.2.1) does not support Flash Player for presenting video within web pages. Still is there a possibility to enable (lite) support for video streaming in apps like BBC PLAYER, TV SHOWS or MEGA VIEWER?

Howto update Galaxy Ace FW on Win7

Well, I finally got it working and updated the FW to KC1 :). I'm on Win 7 SP1

Just to help anyone else trying to do it and not getting it right, I would list down steps that I followed:

1. Downloaded the latest version on Kies (ver 2.0.xxxx).

2. IMP: uninstall the old Kies version before installing the new one. Somehow, not removing it messes up the Windows firewall.

3. Remove old Kies entry from Windows Firewall "Allowed programs" list, if already existing. Add the entry fresh for Kies.

4. Make sure you have atleast 3.5 GB available on your system partition (where your windows is installed). This is required even if you install Kies on a different partition as it would still d/l the FW to this partition.

5. Ensure your internet conn is up. In my case the Kies complained mid-way that it has lost conn to the server. I restarted it and opened up some other webpage/chat window which keeps the conn alive (though I have a broadband). This may not be needed for you.

6. That's it and you should be done in about 20 mins! The phone would restart and you'll be on latest FW.

7. Don't worry about your existing apps as all of them would be intact. Even your home screen/lock screen wallpapers and ringtone settings etc would be intact :).

Hope the above would be helpful for the needy

Hey...

I have a problem in moving the apps from internal phone memory to external SD card memory. I downloaded apps from android market and then moved them using 'App2SD Pro' after moving them to SD i noticed that the apps are displayed in SD storage and the internal memory is also occupied for the apps. The apps are stored both in internal phone memory and external SD card memory.

How to remove the apps from internal phone memory and store them only in SD card?

How to download the apps directly from the market to SD card?

For transferring files, I am not sure if the WiFi link will work without 3rd party softwares.

I forgot the names but there are couple of free 3rd party s/ws which can connect PC and Mobile via WiFi and you can do some file transfer ( you need to install s/ws on ur mobile and pc)

I suggest you should use Data cable for data transfer or use bluetooth..

Just flashed my galaxy ace with the latest version of the firmware. Having no problems as of yet. auto focus seems to be working good enough and the gallery too shows images all fine. I just had an issue regarding the keyboard of the new firmware. Wish it had the stock gingerbread keyboard (as I m not a big fan of the swype keyboard). So I m using the gingerbread keyboard application from the market, which is a bit ironical I feel :confused:. Nothing big change from froyo I believe.apart from the version number in about phone.

Any hopes of getting to root this?
