Hi everyone ...
U all might know that ICS roll out has been started by samsung for Galaxy S2 .. Im a bit confused abt few things ...
I have a korean Galaxy S2 SHW-M250K .. on which i have flashed European GB 2.3.6 XXKL1 and rooted it also ...
Now in my about phone im having the MODEL: GT-i9100 ...
My question is .. If I unroot my phone and go back to stock XXKL1 .. Wud i get the notification from phone software updater for ICS??
if YES .. and i click yes to update to 4.0 ... Would that ICS work fine on my model ?? Because originally my model is SHW-M260K but its MASKED to GT-i9100 ???

If you can flash gt-i9100 roms, you should be fine, although I'm not sure about working OTA, but if that doesn't work you can flash xxlpq with odin.

Friends,I came across an official firmware update for indian galaxy ace GT-S5830I.My phone is GT-S5830.Are these two variants of ace or the same phone?Also will the rom for GT-S5830I work on my GT-S5830?Please somebody clarify?
Perhaps the I represents "Indian" ?
Anyhow if the latest firmware you're referring to is 2.3.6, I'm currently running that on my S5830 and it works fine.
can anyone tell the diffrence
The 'I' refers to an upgraded model. Maybe, the new hugo ace edition or galaxy ace plus. Our phone model is GT-S5830

No, the ROM from GT-S5830I will not work on our ace if the S5830I refers to Galaxy Ace Plus

It's not the Plus , the Plus will have a different code number and NOT GT-S5830
Herpderp Adreno + Tegra.

Can you please tell which earlier version you were using before upgrading to 2.3.6 latest version. I am currently running DDKQ6 and want to know if i can upgrade it to 2.3.6 also.

You can upgrade to 2.3.6 without caring about your baseband version if your phone isn't operator specific.

guys i have checked it galaxy ace plus mode number is diffrent
i downloaded the firmware 2.3.6 from samfirmware but when i select the tar file in odin the odin application close . so i think there is some problem with the tar file if anyone has the correct source file with them please post ... waiting .
and important thing there is no such model like s5830i on samsung website or gsmarena sites ... i think its fake firmware as even odin does not accept it...
can download and check yourself will know what i mean to say...

yes there is s5830i in INDIA
i have recently verify with samsung in ahmedabad that there is update of 2.3.6. for the MODEL NO S5830i ..... but not for s5830....
there are two different model and there are different chipsets ....
there is no update for s5830 of 2.3.5. or later .....
Just find that what's yr phone model no is ?
Go to setting-about phone see yr model no.....
Whether it is s5830 or s5830i ???
Now this two model are different.
So stock ROM of s5830i will not work on s5830.
Odin will be crashed when you try to install s5830i on s5830...
So use only those ROMa which are for s5830 any???
I am using Singapore's ROM works perfectly . And it's official .
you can upgrade any updates through kies if any available....

In other words the phone will be HARD bricked if custom FW is flashed or Stock FW's flashed a few times.
thank god i did not buy my Ace later!
Acording to the quadriant score its 2 times slower then GT-S5830
LOL Trollsung (Samsung) is so awesome when it comes to FW
It won't be bricked . You just can't get your warranty

Flashing custom ROM for S5830 into S5830i
Guys,
I tried doing the above and it was aborted. Lucky I took a nandroid backup beforehand.
OK. so ROM for 5830 cant be flashed into 5830i. thats clear.
But what about themes and other apps? Will they also not work?
I found this video, is a custom rom running on S5830I.

LPB is an Android 4.0 firmware, which means you're not gonna get the Gingerbread version of said firmware, but I recommend KI4 (which is gingerbread)
