New user should not mean you cannot search and are unable to navigate to the G forum .

no need to be like that to a user with 2 posts.At Least he posted in Q&A and not development
Before you flame me too...I have never and probably will never own a Samsung. I'm only in this forum for my little sister,She has recieved the OTA notification but doesn't have wifi and its saying 2000+ hours to download...Where can i download it to put on her /sdcard and manually update? Didn't see the point in startin a new thread and getting trolled for it..
Yes i have searched which leads me to....
No i dont want to root it..
Any ideas?? Thanks in advance for an answer

Search CHECKFUS download and flash via ODIN .

Android version

Hi, I bought my Samsung Galaxy Ace s5830, and I've updated software from 2.2 to 2.3.5 using Odin, is it possible to get back to the original version 2.2? I bought this phone in UK.

You just read my mind!
Can you give me a hyper link to that software? I can not find it

You can found a firmware-collection here
Just choose a "2.2.1 Froyo" Version of your region...Good luck
But next time you should post in the general section.
Download your required firmware from sammobile.com.
Put your phone into download mode, open Odin, and flash the downloaded file.
If you still don't get it, please visit this great site- androidadvices.com and go to galaxy ace section.

i think we should ask a mod to automatically ban their IPs to clean XDA from these kind of threads..getting very annoyed to this kind of people..

Wrong section, so I'm closing this thread. About banning: you should remember that you have been noobs too. We shouldn't punish newcomers. They came here to find help, just like we one day. Help instead of punishment.
Imagine the situation that mods bans for every noob question - this forum would be empty. That's not our goal.

@OP - I'd better not see you bump a post after 9 minutes on here ever again :-/
I'm not interested in how important you think your issue is, this is not your personal tech support forum. When you make a thread, you wait patiently for an answer. Bumping your thread after not getting an answer within 9 minutes is a good way to have people ignore you (which the person who did answer you should have done to make the point).

hey buddy, u r new to all this rooting and flashing thats Ok.
and also ur interested in knowing more about the same thats also fine.
but ur handicapped with just ur phone to do everything, which is not good.
since u need a computer and internet connection, so that in case if something goes wrong while doing things on ur phone, at least u can get help via PC from XDA or google to resolve ur issue.
hence my advice to u is, do please get hold of a pc with net, may be a friend of u might help with the same.
also u have to do some probing on XDA regarding
1) how to root my phone?
2) what is downld mode and recovery mode? etc
hope u understand for now

I want to know what it really means? I want to flash custom ROM, can I still do this?
Search for the error message and all will be revealed
Sent from my GT-I9300 using xda app-developers app
Go back to the CF root thread and read it or read the ten thousand posts asking the same question .
jje
I successfully installed the custom ROM. The error was due to the incompatibility of Jelly Bean with CWM. BTW if you cant help don't reply :thumbdown:

BTW if YOU cannot search and are to lazy to read the thread you are in the wrong forum this is XDA Developers not some fix my phone forum .
Those are the rules which you blatantly ignored .

I definitely searched first but nothing concrete was available... for a newbie rooting and installing custom ROM is risky at first... and i respect u for being a senior member but senior members should guide juniors and yes i know its xda developer forum i came here to learn, so far so good

Go to www.sammobile.com download a stock firmware, flash through Odin, reroot.
*or*
Find the right siyah kernel tar and flash through odin

I can't find 2.3.3 on sammobile only 2.3.6... does this matter? Or is there somewhere else I can find it?
Title adjusted
As was pointed out, it's always best to give a more descriptive title than 'Please Help'. I see you've got a few people helping you, good luck with it - it's usually a step you missed (I've done the same). Always read up and understand what you're doing before you do it, saves brain cells

u have very less or even outdated rooting option on GB, better to upgrade ur phone to stock ICS v4.0.3 (dwnld the stock ICS v4.0.3 firmware pertained to ur region on www.sammobile.com and flash the same using 'ODIN'.
After successfull flash and booting of ICS on ur phone, u can use Siyah kernel( .tar file for ODIN) to root ur phone by flashing the same vide ODIN
U might have corrupted ur install. If there is no VERY important data, i would recommend you to wipe data/cache and download a new STOCK rom and install using odin hope this helps. P.S. Only use odin and stock rom it has less chances of bricking the phone.
