[Q] galaxy ace logo loads for a long time and stock versions.

Hi,
i have a problem, the logo screen of samsung galaxy ace s8.. waits for about 40 seconds/more and only afterwards goto boot animation which takes a while to.
i don't remember the phone acting that way usually the logo screen is only for a moment.
iv installed stock after Cyanogen and i understand thats not good but i used stock light 6 which should be supported and it does work except for this part.
what can cause this kind of behavior?
and second question.since i wanted to return to stock rom i checked it out and i have 2 questions about it
1) can i use kies and is it better or worse than odin?
2) what are the different between the same versions of android and what does fit me (for example S5830XWKS2 S5830XXKPO both are 2.3.5 and 2.3.6 have different one completely)
thanks in advance for any help
well i can answer your second question
2.3.xx versions are just minor updates ...sometimes they fix wifi and bluetooth problems and sometimes also improve battery life..they improve the stability and and performance if the phone and add some eye candys ( the 2.3.5 version adds overscroll glow effect)...
about your first question : did u wipe cache partition after flashing the rom??? see if it helps...

i tried to clean cache and everything that is needed
no luck
about the question about firmware: both are 2.3.5: 2.3.5 S5830XWKS2 2.3.5 S5830XXKPO
the question is what it the difference between them.

[Q] Need Assistance for Unresponsive Screen.

Hi All,
Greetings!
I currently have a SHW-M250K galaxy s2 model.
I have flashed it with i9100 gt firmware.
However, some portions of my screen are unresponsive, only to some applications. The lower part of my screen is not being detected properly. Its as if some applications only detect my screen as 4.0 instead of 4.3. It only happens to some applications. Keyboard and other apps seem to work fine.
My details are as follows:
Model: GT - I9100
Baseband: I9100DXLP7
Kernel: 3.0.15 - TH [email protected] #2
Build Number: IML74K DXLP7
Would updating my kernel be of any help?
What would be a good way of fixing? Would wiping all my cache and data help?
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks!
bump
Hey...
yes, try to update or use another kernel once.
If this won't help, last option is to make a full wipe, but try the kernel first.
If u hadn't the prob before and not bigger drop of phone or anything like this, it wouldn't be a hardware issue

[Q] Camera screen blank

Hi, my camera app (or any camera app for that matter) won't show what I'm shooting at but instead a blank screen. I can take a picture and it still works but it's a little hard to know what I'm shooting at. I tried instagram and tumblr and had the same problem. I've tried installing a camera rom from xda forums VR Stock AOSP Camera Build6 with no luck. I'm at a loss as to what to do here because I use my camera frequently and have run out of ideas. Someone please help me. My phone is an AT&T Samsung Galaxy SII which is rooted, if that helps. Thanks in advance. I noticed earlier that when I give up and press the back key for just a second I can see a blurry picture instead of the blank screen. What could be causing this. I'm running Siyah 3.4.2 on an i777.

Siyah 3.4.2. is old and outdated, so if you're running a newer rom with it you'll have trouble like this. Before anyone can properly help you, what rom are you trying to run with 3.4.2?
ROM
Well I was running carbon at first but was disappointed with it so I went back to the factory ROM. I'm doing some research now to try and pick a new ROM to go with. I reflashed my phone with Odin and am now running Android version 4.0.4 Kernel version 3.0.35-Siyah0v3.4.2. Should I be choosing a different kernel? Update I'm now using Android version 4.0.4 and Kernel version 3.0.15-0-Siyah-s2-v4.1.5+
Problem Solved
Flashed a new kernel to upgrade to 4.1.2
