Good morning mates,
I installed few days ago the S5830XWKSD [04.11.2011][Android 2.3.5].
It was described like a very good rom but I don't find it so great and I want to flash it.
Before changing it I would like to have some comments on the rom in subject and any suggestion about a good stock rom.
Thanks to all for your comments
Kph 2.3.4

No you can go direct
I can say my experience. I jumped from froyo 2.2.1 to gingerbread 2.3.3 and then 2.3.5.
Probably you can flash directly to 2.3.5.
But It's better wait for a confirmation from more expert people.
As said before, yes, it can be done directly to 2.3.5.
The story is different if you want to DOWNGRADE to froyo.

Thanks for your help. I'll upgrade one by one.
Also please note that We're not as experienced as you so
some easy, stupid questions is able to us a very difficult.
Also i've read some problems occur after direct upgrade. Thats why i asked for.
There are many foolish data exist for android. It's hard to choose one to beleive.
two fast questions before flashing the ks9, do I have to make an hard reset before and after installing a new stock rom or just after?
Do I have to make a battery calibration after installing a new rom?
Thanks

I used both methods to change my roms and I found the one package the easest way to upload the files with Odin.
I don't think you can have problem If you use the one package method.

Let say my experience,
I passed from froyo 2.2.1 to 2.3.3 using a multipackage and from 2.3.3 to 2.3.5 and to 2.3.6 using a one package.
You can do the same and avoid any risk.

Lol that's not right at all..if you don't really know the answer to a question then don't answer it. Anyhow the other person was right you need a rom that is 2.2 or higher in order to use flash.
You need a froyo (2.2) custom room like this http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=947613
Dude u need a 2.2 ROM, if u have rooted the phone, just install xrecovery and choose install custom rom & location of the rom zip.
Voila you are good to go
Can someone explain to me in layman's (ish) terms, why it's not possible to hack Flash Player support on 2.1?
I want to learn!
Because the framework for flash didn't exist on 2.1.. The only 2.1 that had flash was for htc and it was flash lite, but it sucked..
U just have to flash a 2.2 ROM like Free X10 and download Flash from the Market - Finish
Greetz, Kevin
Flash Palyer is working well on Free X10
thanks guys would you be able to tell me which custom rom is the best I mean best froya 2.2

Okay, so thats why there were a lot of rumors about Flash on 2.1
Because HTC had some Flash Lite. But, you could also install it on other phones, or only on some HTC?
Does flash realy need some files from 2.2 ? isnt there a way to copy these files from 2.2 and use under 2.1 ?

Only worked on htc phones because it required their sense rom...
There is no way no matter what you do to get it to run on 2.1. It will never happen.

Again, there's a difference between flash and flash lite.
Most flash websites do not support flash lite, but there are a few that do. Many ads, for example, are based on flash lite. But anyway, I think the OP has got his answer, so further discussion is futile

Yes but newgrounds.com still did work with flash lite as it worked when I had htc sense, then once I rooted and installed a 2.1 custom rom it no longer did, even after I had flash lite supposedly installed.
Ask any of the htc devs and they will tell you the exact same thing guaranteed... It did not actually work...
Seriously go ask pulser, feeyo, any of them..

Its not like I don't want to help you but mostly all of your questions can be answered just by lookin' into the "Android develpment" section of this sub-forum.
You can find everything you need there; from instructions about how to flash a ROM to the ROM itself.
As for the best ROM, well, there's aint much custom ROM for the Ace now. But a stock XXKPH might be the one you lookin' for.
Used it for almost a moth now and still no SODs or crap like that.
Hope this help.
+1
KPH is what you are looking for.
I've used every rom out there but I find it the best one.
Use cf-root kernel on it & apply some tweaks. It'll fulfill all your needs.
Don't forget to hit thanks if I helped you!
Code Rom is the best till now .
Fast, stable with darktremors apps2sd and ext 4 support in nexus ace .

As you can see from comments above; such 'best ROM' is relative to each people.
One may want features that others dont and vice versa.
You should try one by one and find which suits you best.
Thanq guys for ur replies. Im unable to find my present firmware(DDKA7) not even here

You don't need to go back to the same firmware. If you want to go back to froyo then you flash with DDKC1.

Hey!
I think all ROM-s DEVELOPERS and others, who may include needed things in ROM(custom ones)are WORTH for BIG RESPECT(developers are doing what they can and after that they MAYBE can IMPROVE, already made out ROM-s)!!!
CHEERS!
try stock 2.3.4 + custom kernel cf-root... no any kind of bugs for me..
If you really want a stock gingerbread firmware (stock means no modification at all, no custom kernel) then I can suggest 2.3.3 KPN from Spain. No SOD so far, wake up lag almost does not exist (both problems are in 2.3.4 KPH).
However, if you can live with a from time to time SOD or with the wake up lag, 2.3.4 KPH is enough. Also, if you go KPH, there's a lot of custom ROM for it now.

I agree and vote for KPN. Haven't encountered any SOD yet ( I use my SGA as a portable hotspot for an average of 6 hours a day, and with KPH, SOD happens twice a day) Hope it stays stable..
2.3.3 XWKPN is the best for me
Hi I'm new here..so please forgive me for this noob question..

IMO, DXKPD is newer than DXKPB, in alphabetical sequence, last letters of the code, if you notice, and do not worry, Samsung fully supports the modding community, so don't worry about modifying your phone.

Install CWM4 or 5 for Galaxy Ace, you shouldn't need Root for this. You can find them on this Forum if you look. This will replace your stock recovery. Once this is done you place your ROM on the SD card, reboot into recovery and hit install from Zip then choose your new ROM. Simple as that.
If you need any more help let me know

Also don't I need to make a backup or anything? xD because I don't want to brick my Ace its the only phone I have right now.
U don't need root to install cwm 5 ..well I think u should upgrade your firmware to 2.3.xx because most of the roms for SGA are based on gingerbread .ie they need gingerbread basebands ...if u flash them on your FROYO phone u will BRICK your phone !!!!!

Sure you could make a back-up, it is always good to have just in case. You can't restore a stock ROM through recovery, you'll just get a boot loop, but there are other methods to restore your stock back-up. Froyo to Gingerbread is no problem, it is Gingerbread to Froyo that it becomes more complicated.
EDIT: But some ROM's do require you to be on 2.3.x so you could do an official update to Gingerbread to "ensure" everything goes smoothly.

Sorry for all these questions
Well, they don't say. Why not be safe and flash a stock 2.3.x ROM with ODIN. Better to be safe then sorry right?! Are you familiar with ODIN?
Yes I have used ODIN in the past before but only with the One Package option.

And if I where to flash that stock firmware which one should I use European?
Yup, that is what you'll be doing. I wrote a little tutorial on it a while ago, the link is here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1408974&highlight=2+3+6+update

Sadly, no. As mentioned above, the Samsung Vibrant never received an official Gingerbread update. So there is no stock Gingerbread 2.3.6 ROM. However, you can find plenty custom ROMs based on 2.3.6 available here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1982728
I suggest Simply Stock, a download link can be found in the thread linked above. I believe that is the closest thing to a stock Gingerbread ROM.
