Right well been playing aruond alot with my phone and now want to go back to stock rom so i can install sgs 2 final rom.
The reason is that the a2sd isnt working on that rom and the kernel that i have is not cf-root and cf-root will not install when i flash the rom.
So obviously i have a galaxy ace, it's GT-S5830.
I am unable to recover my backup using cwm as it just stops at the second samsung boot animation.
Now i am looking for the stock baseband version but cannot find that. My baseband is S5830BVKQA.
I have been using cm7.1 and .2 which from what i have read causes problem due to ext4 and rfs system thing.
Please help me this is the last thing that i even want to know
i am currently working on the a2sd malfunction

finslly an idea that will work. God i hope this works lol, im sure you will be hearing from me about something else lol.
Im hoping going back to stock rom then back to your rom will solve all the problems (a2sd and final 2.3.9).
Hows the fix going?
yep. odin works wonder.
good luck!
@Ex Deus Xien you also agree this will work?
Dude im loving this. It's nice to know you can go back to normal.
When i re-root it can i use the zip i used on my old firmware?
well got it all set up and it wouldn't recognize my device in download mode. Just going to stick with sgs 2 but will keep an eye out for your fix spacecaker. thank you for all your help
first install samsung kies then after instalation reboot pc
open odin put the files correctly
then put phone in download mode
Sent from my GT-S5830 using xda premium

I think that recovery is from Eugene's dead horse kernel. You can post it in dead horse thread. BTW you have to put the rom on external sd to flash with that kernel.
Thanks man.will try that.

Download SGS Kernel flasher from the market. Also, download whatever kernel you want to flash and just select it thru the app I just mentioned.

Don't worry mate. Just download odin and stock jfd rom and you will be back up and running in 10 minutes.
Check out this thread..

Why not do this? The OP wanted to change kernels without a computer. The kernel flasher does just that.
Besides, Odin should be baseline knowledge if you are going to play around with the Vibrant.
P.S.- I forgot to quote Duboi
Thanks all, I odin back to stock.all is well.

I'm currently using simply honey 4.0 rc3 and I've always heard good things about miui but it sounds very difficult to install. I have gb boot loaders so I'm not sure how to install it since they're aosp. Another thing is I've heard miui had inferior battery life to touchwiz roms so can anyone share any advice?
Sent from my SGH-T959 using XDA App
If u flash with gb bootloaders the external sd wont mount no big deal but I quickly grew accustomed to MIUI because its so customizable and I hated touchwiz and as for battery I flashed the glitch kernel and undervolted and I got about 12 hrs with moderate use and my battery was at 61% but I guess battery varys from person to person
Sounds good which miui and how do I backup my efs

you can always just flash the froyo bootloader if you switch to miui and you won;t have the external sd problem

Yeah but the complex and tedious work to test a rom just seems a little out there so I wanted to know is miui really worth the big amount of risks I'm happy with my current rom but I've heard good things about miui

Tedious? all you do is put it on the root of your int sd card and flash it...then odin back to stock if you want to go back to Touchwiz based roms.

Thanks for the advice although I'm not a noob I've been a root user since they released cupcake on the g1 I just needed to clarify a few things before I tested miui now to figure out why my odin displays mandarin maybe because the boot loaders are chinese?

Well, I am posting this behalf of my friend....
He had ClockWorkMod Recovery installed and Rooted his Ace on a stock firmware...
Just a few mins back he installed the ROM Toolbox app from the market.
After installing and running the app, the app told him to restart his phone and after that the phone is stuck on the "S5830" logo....
He is able to get into Recovery Mode, and also tried wiping everything but hes still stuck on that logo
Please help.
Kind of urgent...

Yeah, I had that in my mind too but my friend is unable to flash right now, so any other alternatives?
no backup?
if CWM is working properly try to flash again the ROM zip and do the full wipe...
as u said he tried to wipe but still stuck, odin is the only solution now.

Is there anyone else here that has used ROM Toolbox and bricked their Ace?
Cause I used it on Samsung Galaxy 3 and it did not cause any problems....
No, I'm aware of every single app that has "ROM" in its name. If you know what I mean.

If he used ROM Manager to install CWM, then it can't be repaired :/
I mean, ROM Manager is very dangerous for Ace. Many people have bricked their phone by using it. It may be compatible with Galaxy 3 but on Ace, it's DANGEROUS

It depends on which method you want to run. You can use the rootzwiki leak which is a tar file used in Odin. Or you can use dagr8's CWM flashable zip.
Let me know which one you want to use and I'll give you further directions. (Odin method would be easier for newbs)

If you know how to use CWM I'd recommend using that one. I believe if you flash the rootzwiki one you will lose root and CWM.

I have done a nandroid and when you say flash i guess you mean load the exe through odin, if so it comes back as failed all the time, do i have to try a diff com or something.

I would suggest maybe starting with the collective First flight ics it just has fewer steps at this point. What you want to do is download the rom to your sd card and follow the instructions on wiping.

Hello,
I have p500(indian) on old baseband and want to upgrade to new bb using lgmdp.. following are a few questions that i dint find an answer to.
1.what is the risk of having a bricked device if i turn off lg virtual modem..?
2. th lg virtual modem is shown as lge android platform usb modem.. is it the same..?
3. What rom and recovery should i be on to flash new baseband?
4. can i flash cm9 first and then new baseband?
5.my recovery takes around 5 seconds to show the options... it wasnt like this before.. is this normal? im on the recovery i firrst installed(amonra 1.2 the one with bad boot message)
6.before flashing a recovery zip or cwm from rom manger what precautions should i take?
7.In rom manager if i say install recovery.. it shows p500 and p500(oldbb) so if i flash old bb now and then upgrade.. will it work?
8. if flash the one without (oldbb) will my phone get bricked..?
Thanks for your answers in advance.. p500 was the best phone i got in my life.. and its not because of lg.. its because of its awesome community.!
> when i was on stock as you
> 1st I rooted ,this is A MUST 1st to do
> 2nd flash clockworkmod or amonra.. but cwm would be good for starters, just download rom manager at play store.. and u'll get it
> 3rd since ur on old baseband.. i suggest you flash cm7 rom or the on i modded then flash the old baseband fix so you dont need to upgrade
> incase you want to upgrade so u can also use cm9
> now is the time to use lgmdp .. Em not sure.. but i think its different ..virtual modem wasnt there when i switched baseband so i did not disabled any..
i think it good
Can anyone answer please..? cant find answers to these questions.. and neko man i think you misunderstood my question.. it partly answered one that is lg virtula modem maybe does not play an important part.. ppl please answer..

Well there are many tutorials out there on how to get new bb. Just follow them step by step. You have to flash it first then you can get CM9. Forgive me but some of your question sound like this "Will my phone work if I submerge half of it in water?". Don't worry just do as you're told on the tutorials All the best!

There is definitely a risk, and you have to follow the instructions clearly to avoid any risks. To be honest here, I bricked my phone thrice (yes! 3 times) using kdz updater. That's why I'd suggest that you don't upgrade to new bb using kdz updater

The only and most secure thing i have to prefer u to flash official froyo 2.2.2 on ur phone first... if u already using it then its ok... n if not then search a official froyo rom in zip format for flashing it via cwm recovery... after then... use lg pc suite for upgrading it to official 2.3.3 n ur phone will automatically updated to new bb too.
EDIT: Just clarify me what rom n recovery are u using...!?? What android version and baseband shows on ur phone....
Type in phone dialer to get BB details
