hey folks ,
i have been banging my head in my vzn fsc since past 10 days ,
created 2 threads about how i can upgrade the ROM and i donno what not , but my issues seem to be never ending .
i am following those threads as well if someone can help me out ,
so the crux is i am using this handset in INDIA with RELIANCE settings , Its currently on DL09 ( seems to be working only on DL09 and EB01 stock )
i have tried flashing SC , community , and evil fascination , etch , but more often then now , after doing everythingb successfully , i get stuck on first boot at SELECT LANGUAGE SCREEN , which just wont buzz despite selecting langauge
so after 4 days i have given up and flashed DL09 ( adrenalyns stock version DL09.tar.md5 (308.47 MB) )
and thats , i dont think i can install any tweaked ROM
anyways can you guyz suggest me what more i can do after installing DL09 , i mean anything else that i can flash in it like some better radio , or so fix to make it use lesser battery and improve performance and voice quality.
Why do you need another thread?

as its about DL09 only ,
waiting since yesterday in those threads for replies , they pertain to issues involving what ROM to choose , how to fix SELECT LANGUAGE crap.
in here i am just asking for enhancements for DL09
if its against the rules, then my apologies to the staff upfront.

Greetings all..
I just bought a SAM Ace.. i had a Htc Magic then a X10 mini and now i turned to SAM.. heard that it was a good machine.. so..
I've been using XDA to root, and install new roms to my previous phones..
But in this SAM, unfortunately i am a bit conserned.. So can any1 help me in this questions:
: I'm running Ginger 2.2.3 updated throug Kies
1 - My mobile is sim locked.. i can't use any other sim.. I already searched that is possible to (root) the phone and then install an apk that unlocks the sim lock.. has any1 tried this? is it safe?
2 - I'm a bit worried to (root) this phone, does any1 report any problem after with network, battery and general stability of the device?
3 - Is the best stable official rom at the moment the one i have now or is there a better one ? Though Kies i can't find the 2.2.4v u guys are talking about.. so .. This isn't really an official rom right?
4- Since i've got my phone from Vodafone, it has some operator aps that i don't really use and they are using needed space, is there a way to remove them somehow.. like.. instaling a official rom from elsewere, but still upgradable through Kies? Or do i really need to (root) the device? After rooted, can i still install a official 2.2.3 rom.. but.. without all the operator crap?
5 - There are a few custom roms as i can see, i used to use de Cyanogen in my X10 mini, but i had some issues with sending and receiving mms.. , at the moment.. is there any stable and fully operational roms ? including the mms solved problems..? cof cof.. and good battey usage time ?
6 - Sorry for any bad english.
Thank you !!
Welcome to the community!
For question 4,I have used 2.2.1 and 2.3.4.felt ok except the wifi died occasionally which was a documented problem.
For question 5,I am currently on cyanogen but its a rc version.I am quite happy with it as performance boosted.but it came at the price of battery life.haven't tried mms though
Sent from supercharged cyanogen7ace
Try to use cyanogen for the rom.
:-D

1. No idea although I don't see why it wouldn't be safe.
2. Rooting is easy. Like everything else, be careful and follow instructions to the T and you'll have no problems.
3. Correct. There is no 2.3.4 update through Kies...I think. Plug your phone in and find out.
4. If you want to remove bloatware, root your device and use Root Unistaller. Alternatively, flash a new ROM.
5. There are two variants of CM7.1 at the moment. One was made by BehradGH the other by Grif_07. Both work wonderfully.
6. It wasn't that bad =]

You should really be cautious when trying to unlock your phone. A lot of people bricked their phone by doing this. Since I have no personal experience in this; all I can do is direct you to threads on XDA but I'm too lazy to look them up for you so I suggest you to use "search".
Thanks to those who answered..

I am using Icecream Sunday by Jusada. It's an ICS themed CM7.1 ROM but it has been stripped down to the bear minimum. Jusada initially made it as a foundation ROM for developers to then customize as they saw fit but it has become very popular amongst forum members as a day-to-day ROM. It is very stable and more importantly (for me) it is FAST!
Also, because it has been stripped down, I have noticed a lot better battery time.
Granted, the battery life on almost all Android phones is crap, but if you're looking to be more conservative with power and increased speed, use Icecream Sunday.
So to answer your question - I get about half a day's SOLID use from my battery.
As far as MMS goes, I am not sure. You'd have to ask one of the devs.
Hope that's helped

Welcome to XDA!
1) It can be quite tricky to unlock the Ace, and can brick/reset it. First check if it really is locked.
2) There's risk involved in rooting, but it's minimal - if you follow the instructions. There are pros and cons of rooting, but the pros outweigh the cons.
3) Kies sucks IMO, so you're better off upgrading with ODIN. Look in this section: http://forum.xda-developers.com/forumdisplay.php?f=1167.
4) The best way to remove the bloatware/crapware is by rooting and then uninstalling them, or by flashing a custom ROM.
5) There are a lot of stable ROMs available, take your pick: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1194358, there's supposed to be an official Cyanogen for Ace(cooper) in the works, but if you can't wait that long, I recommend this one: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1263292
Also have a look at some useful info:

Guys
Can someone point me out to a stable and fully functional MIUI rom for galaxy s2 ? . I could not find any info regarding the rom on MIUIs website as well
I use Galnet Miui (galnetmiui.co.uk) 2.11.26 and have had minimal problems.
Now...
Just because it works well for me does not mean you will have the same experience with this rom. Your phone will have been built ever so slightly differently to mine so far as the "quality" of the components go, you will have different apps installed on your phone and you will have different usage patterns to me.
So what I'm saying is by all means try it out, but also try out other roms & see how they work for you.
I find it impossible to believe you went to Miui.com, clicked on the english site & couldn't find the downloads. That tells me you didn't try hard enough, so I suggest you go back there and have a proper look. Also, you can have a look at Miui US, their rom is a different take on Miui again.
If you're not the sort of person who's prepared to do a bit of searching and experimenting with your phone, and you want a rom that's always stable , I suggest you leave your phone on stock firmware & just enjoy a fantastic phone (the phone is brilliant just running stock).
Thanks mate for the detailed reply . I did find the download section ! , however i did not find any help on its forums regarding the quality of the ROM ( what is working and whats not ) . And i still cannot find it
And i can search and experiment . Running CheckRom V4 for a while now and its pretty nice !
"Quality" is a subjective thing. It gets back to what I was saying about different people having different experiences with different roms.
So far as what works & what doesn't, there should be a changelog with every version of the rom, I know there is for Galnet's roms and I'd be very surprised if there's not for Miui's roms (which means I'm not going to do the searching for you).
I installed the miui.us rom . Apparently everything is working . Just the video in 720 or 1080 is not working !
is that working in the Galnet`s rom ? you can atleast tell me that

Miui.us? May i know which version you installed?
Rom : MIUI ICS XGT 'EXTENDED'
Kernel : Xcell-69X
Modem : XXKP8
Sent from Galaxy SII
It was 1.12.30
But i am back to CheckRom . Was having a few problems with the Rom
* SMS app was giving constant FC ( even after trying the fix )
* Camera app was closing randomly without any errors etc
* Phone was running too Hot
* Quadrant score went down from 3600 to 2800 ( not bothered that much with that )
Just for you (because I've come to like you somewhat during the time this thread has been in existence), I tested 1080HD video just now and it works quite fine.

Do you mean that all roms here are not always stable?
Yep that's exactly what I mean. It's pretty rare to run a custom rom and not have any issues (mostly minor issues tho, mind you) at all. So many different apps, some of which work perfectly with some roms/kernels yet are nothing but trouble with others.
Stock has had the absolute living crap tested out of it by Samsung and if you want (almost) absolute stability with almost no problems whatsoever, then stock is what you want to run on your phone. On the other hand, if you're spending time on a site like this chances are stock just isn't your thing and you're more than prepared to put up with little issues that come up occasionally running a custom rom/kernel.
I know I am. I can't see any reason why I'd ever go back to stock, I can't think of a "gamechanger" or feature Samsung could put in a stock rom that couldn't be made to work in a custom rom by the *really* talented devs who post here that would make me go back to stock.

well i tried to flash one of those i500 roms on my fascinate just for the heck of it ( i think it was for an Indian cdma operator for I500)
it was a fascinate Rom alright , didnt like it ED05 EH18
but since then i am not able to odin anything , either it stops at recovery or some other point, but mostly at recovery .
i can access the download mode , but odin flashing isnt possible now, no matter which STOCK rom i use they arent getting thru , always get stuck at this or that point.
plz help

are you familiar with ADB? you can push a stock image file that way... cayanogen website has a great tutorial on it.
TBH I am not familiar with adb at all .
but the issue was resolved , looks like my usb cable was the culprit and man !! i wasted the whole night trying to figure that out ( and LOL that too was suggested by wife )
yeah i know
btw DS , could u temme which is the better ICS build and kernel now
this all happened with me getting bored og GB
actually i thought of flashing TEAMHACKSUNG's latest ICS build , somehow when i was transferring it to sd card , nothing was happening so i forcefully removed the cable and tried a few times , but it failed , In the end managed to transfer it via WIN 7 ( previously was using XP )
but when i flashed it via CWM , following proper procedure it failed , i donno what was that and my ordeal started .
and now XP wont recognise the phone neither in ODIN nor in mass storage , so doing it all via win 7
appreciate the help.

The latest THS (7.1) has a few bugs still since it is new. I have been running 6.5 for well over a month with no problems. I don't have any experience with AOKP, but there are many people who choose it over THS. I don't think you can go wrong with either one.

Ths is like vanilla, and aokp is like...... Well it has more ability to customize than about any rom i have seen.
Sent from my SCH-I500 using xda premium
Aokp 28 w/ glitch 14 b6 is the best combination of rom/kernel I have ever used...no reboots, no lag, no sod's, good battery life, and customization like you cant imagine.
Thats great !!
have some specific suggestions or advise ? coz i have never ever flashed any NON TOUCHWIZ ROM till date
or may be outline the process in short , ( btw awesome guide you hav got in general )
