I'm currently using the ewjet Rom with custom kernel which is really good. I miss/need the stock 2.1 (b.0.1?) Keyboard,browser and launcher system apks as i don't really like the ones that come with ewjet.
I'm currently away from my pc for a week and don't have any means of flashing the original 2.1b firmware to try and copy the apps. I'm not even sure if I have to use that specific firmware or would any other 2.1 apk work? I have actually googled all 3 apks but none work :-( is anyone able to help by attaching them or know what I can do. ThAnks

That's why it is important to back up before flashing onto a new ROM. Anyways here it is..
If I'm right, text input is the default android keyboard..

Slade, I have installed your CM6 Stock rom and flashed the multi touch files using xrec, as I have backed up my original stock rom and apps I would like to know if I am able to flash the multitouch files to the SE stock rom... Thanks in advance and would like to add that what you and dio did is remarkable!
i dont think there is an update .zip for stock rom but you can follow the instructions on the dualtouch thread to enable it
See on my tweaks Multitouch for all roms
I tried all methods in getting the dualtouch for the stockrom including insmod and adbshell and everyway possible but did not manage so opted to go for Slades CM6 Froyo... I backed up my original stock market as I have all the apps and messages saved on that and was really hoping to find an update zip compatible with the SE stock rom... I'm a little bit of a noob and really cannot get the insmod method working since its not permitting me to do so.

D4rKn3sSyS and Eyama,
Thank you very much guys!!
i know this is stupid question and i know that this can be found in setting. i already change it before from blue/yellow to black when i was on stock rom. but when i flash litening rom, i cannot find it.
For some reason the KF1 firmware removed the SMS themes. Since Litening Rom is using the KF1, the theme option is gone. I tried the KF1 stock firmware and noticed that option is gone. Not sure if there is a reason for Samsung removing it or if its just that particular firmware version it is gone. Maybe it will be back in a future firmware. You could get it back by going back to KE7 or using a custom rom using that firmware. Thats the only way I can think of to get it back
oh i see, thats why i cannot find it, thanks a lot
I have the apk working fine if I use the pre-kf one on a new rom. That's how it works in vrtweaks too.

slow down it takes tym to gt a reply..
anyhow i m here
1) All custom roms are rooted so u will not loose ur root access..
2)All rom developers have listed the samsung apps deleted by them,and they usually give it as an addon pack if some people want.
See it what apps they have removed , if the app u want is deleted good for u or u have to deleted it manually as u have done in the past..
Alternatively u can delete it from the rom before flashing too... if u are experienced.
3)This is a kernel related issue try changing/flashing a new kernel the problem should get solved..
i want to flash the litening rom, what is the newest version available?
my kernel is KF4 but most of the roms i found are for other kernel versions, how do i solve this?
The latest version of litening ROM is here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1095274
but can i suggest Cognition as i have used both and i do prefer cognition:

Your kernel doesnt matter - each ROM usually includes their own kernel and when you flash the new rom the kernel from that ROM will also be applied to your phone at the same time

Yes but no fully functional. The team has done a great job though and hats off to them.
Hi guys,
I really need your experience help now. I can't decide which ROM to use for my Ace. I've been using 2.2.1 Froyo, and I decided to upgrade to 2.3.4 KPH. Then I realized that there is lockscreen lag and was really slow. One friend suggested me to use GingerReal 1.1.0 to solve the problem with lockscreen lag and speed, and I upgrade with this custom ROM, but it had a billion of custom stuffs in it, that I don't really understand and use (Tweaks, ext4, QQ launcher, etc.). So I reverted back to my stock Froyo, and started to read here. 3 days I've been reading, and finally decided to put the latest 2.3.3 KPO ROM (LUXKP1). Everything went smooth, but now I can see that my Ace is really slow, lockscreen lag takes ages to show. Otherwise it's really clean ROM, nothing unnecessary pre-installed and contains only the most important apps in it.
Now, I really want to fix that speed and lockscreen lag problem, and I'm thinking to upgrade to KPN. What's your advise to me? Is KPN fast and no lockscreen lag and also - SOD with stock ROM (i'm not planing to use custom ROM for now)?
Also which KPN to choose - 0OXXKP7 or XEUKP1? And at last but not at least what apps pre-installed contains this ROM? Some unnecessary stuffs like those mentioned above? And is it pre-routed?
Thanks in advance, and sorry for my bad English...
We cannot make this decision for you, you'll have to do it yourself. The only way to find out is to try different firmwares, until you find the one that you think is the best.
What I CAN tell you is the following: I've had both KPN and KPO on my device, and I did not notice any difference between them. They were both stable and pretty fast. They have the screen unlock-lag, but think this is not a really big problem, since it only takes ~0.5/1 second.
None of the apps you noted in your post will be included on those firmwares, since these are original samsungfirmwares and not modded ones. Therefore it is not pre-rooted either.
Just going to put it out there. My rom my ui is kpn based it does use tencent launcher witch is simular to miui/iphone. Theres a test out now thats fully working and the complete rom will be out soon. Its really simple and easy to use, but very different to the stock rom. Your call. . .

Thanks for the answers. I'll give a try at KPN.
@jusada, I'll test your ROM soon, and will see if it's compatible with my Ace style
Thanks again you both
Try other custom ROMs when you have free time. You might find one of them that fits you.

Damned... I bricked my phone, because of KPN. I downloaded the S5830OXXKP7 and loaded it to Odin. It's one package file, so I clicked START, and... the download failed. I suppose that my phone must have some 2.3.3 Android before flashing KPN S5830OXXKP7... But it was 2.2.1 Froyo, and it bricks.
Now I'm downloading KPO 'cause I know it's full package, and will try to unbrick it...
Damned! How did you install KPN???

Calm down, i get this issue too. Flash back to 2.2.1 it will fix it. Then flash kpn. Trust me you'll be fine. You'll find 2.2.1 at samfirmware.com

Yes, of course. If I didn't use .ops, my "One Package" field is not active even when "One Package" radio button is marked...
I don't know how I bricked my phone - I loaded all files in Odin (the ROM .tar and the .ops file), and clicked on start button - the usual stuff when u flash new rom, step by step were accomplished. And then... BANG, stays on step number 3 at Odin, for about 2 hours... The counter shows that estimated time imo, is about 3-4 more hours, judging by that the green bar wasn't reach even the half way to end... And after that the connection drops, my phone says "Download failed" and... that was all...
Thanks God, I could go to download mode again, and I flashed back 2.2.1 and then KPO Full Package ROM, and my phone is still alive
But... it's slow... and still got the lockscreen lag, and I'm thinking to flash some custom ROM, because of speed...
I was wondering if someone can tell me for which rom to go. There seem to be many along with CM for this tablet so I am not sure which to use. The tablet comes with 2.2 loaded on mine and thats pretty useless since one of the main uses will be Skype. But I have read that it can be upgraded to 2.3 which support switching cameras so it will be useful with skype.
Thats what I want from the rom too at least. Just be able to work with skype. Can anyone suggest me a rom to use or should I just stay on the official rom after upgraded and just root it?

Hi It would have been better to know if you were using an USA or INTL device, but this ROM http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1623529 supports both so make sure that when you choose to download one you choose the right one, also this ROM is based on 2.3.7 i think hope this helps

I thing that kies will update it to 2.3 when you connect it..if it dont then go for some 2.3 roms on forum..they are only fully fuctional..4.0 dont have camera working.
Sent from my GT-I9000 using XDA
Thank you very much for the replies The phone is a european one (I think) build number is FROYO.XXKD6. So I should stick to 2.3 for now I guess. Thanks again for the help guys!
It would also help if you told us whether you had the 4.0 or 5.0 version of the player as ROMs are dependent on which player you have and whether there international or US versions.

you just assumed he had a 5.0? really should of asked what version of the players he has before suggesting something that could brick his device if its not for his version.
The Model is YP-G70CW/EUR so it should be european and its the 5 inch one. Sorry I did not include the information before.

Any rom developed for GPS 5.0 should work. Just make sure you load the INT kernel.
As none of the ICS builds have the camera thing worked out yet, your best bet is to stay with GB custom roms.
I have both INT and US GPS 5.0 with Eryigit 3.5 roms. It's smooth and stable.
Have fun with your player.
Thanks cvcduty I will go with Eryigit for starters. I do not want it to do crazy things or play any high end 3d games,afar from skype some games would be nice but I want it mainly to read and get on skype. I hope I can install the modded roms without updating it through kies first.. because no matter what I did Kies can't detect it.

You would want kies just for the drivers so your pc can detect the player when you connect it via usb. That would be the only reason you need to load kies software. If you find the right drivers by other means, you really don't need to load kies at all. Matter of fact, I have loaded custom GB roms on players straight out of the box. These players had Froyo from factory.
No need to update your player to factory GB in order to flash custom GB.
If you are having issues with kies, try uninstalling and then reinstalling. You need the driver from that app in order for Odin to detect your player. Once that is done, locate your selected rom in the "pda" area inside Odin and flash. 5 mins to flash and reboot and you are done. Your first boot might take a while so be patient.
Good luck.
For now I am looking for Odin. Lol it can't be so hard to find it since it will be in these forums. Is the latest version 1.85? Also do I have to install the Kernel too or its inside the modded rom? Do I just run odin and choose the rom and install?

there may be newer but 1.85 is KNOWN to work without issue, so best to use it.
It worked like a charm! Very smooth and fast rooting, Odin seems like a great tool to use although the part of having to use certain versions of it for certain devices is a bit complicated. After searching a bit around I understand what you mean that later version might not work as well.
Well I will be sticking to Erygit probably until an ICS rom with camera support appears, if it will. Thanks again everyone for all the help
