I almost never find xda search useful. if i search for something on google often i find it leading to a page on xda. so in my opinion google finds answers on xda better than xda search . just saying

I need the stock rom .
Thanks in advance
Are you trying to remove clockworkmod?
If you use the search function, or just browse the development section for 12 seconds, you can find the stock rom that you can flash in cwm, or an ruu that can be used to get the device to stock as well.

Thanks a lot
I'm disappointed at the OP for not searching before posting this question. Such an easy question to answer. In fact I'm more than certain that instead of posting this he/she could have searched and found the answer much faster.
I'm closing this now.
Hi,
I'm in China and have a genuine S5830. However, typical of foreign firmware, it's all designed and geared to Chinese.
What I want:
English apps and the phone recognized as English, not Chinese, as the default install language. (I have the English language option, but most apps assume I'm Chinese. Also, there's no Android Market in China.)
I'm guessing that my IP address is sometimes to blame, but I'd like an English firmware to reduce the problem. I'm hoping a full-blown English-market firmware will install more in English.
What I've tried:
Downloaded this file: S5830XWKS3_S5830XWKS2_S5830VIRKP1_HOME.tar.md5
from http://www.samfirmware.com/ as a UK 2.3.5 single-file install
Opened ODIN Odin3 v1.85 and followed the instructions here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1075278
But it sticks on 'setupconnection'.
I've searched elsewhere and tried changing USB ports and re-checked the sequence; as well as being quick with the process.
The phone is always on "Downloading" but no progress bar.
Odin reports various COM numbers - highlighted yellow - depending on the USB ports I try.
But nothing happens. I can close ODIN, or just pull the USB and the phone is unharmed - nothing has happened.
Any ideas? Is there a better flash program now?
Will an English firmware solve the all-Chinese apps on the Samsung Apps and Android Market (when I get it)?
I plan to try a windows 7 32-bit machine tomorrow. Currently on Win7 64.
Thanks in advance for any help.
David.
A letter to newbies.
You have a s5830, so please stick to the guides here on XDA specially made for it, than everything should be fine.
=> [TUTORIAL] How to upgrade, root, flash ... by hubix
As you can see: The ODIN version 4.38 is the recommended one to flash Samsung stock roms.
There you can even watch the video how to accomplish the task.
Next you should read and try to understand this:
=> A Newbie Guide for your Galaxy Ace by EmoBoiix3
Those are pinned threads in their subforums. It's always a good starting point to read up this threads first. That's the reason, why they're stickies in the first place.
If you can't understand everything after the first time going through the guides, than things will be clearer on the second or third round. Try to google the informations you need more clarifications on. Maybe you can help other new members and add some missing or more clear instructions.
If you're at the end of your research and can't find any solution on your own, than other XDA members surely will help to solve the problem you've encountered by posting a new relevant thread.

Sorry, I thought development was for developers, as in developing apps etc. for the android. I've flashed various bit of hardware over time (Still not an expert) and usually found the information in a rooting/modding forum.

Yes. I'm fully aware. However, my search didn't find this page, it found the page in my first post. Google searches kept bringing me back to your forum, which is a wonderfully complex treasure trove of information.

Already did. Over 2 hours spent searching and your forum link in the first post was the best I found, and ODIN was mentioned in many forums. A search for ODIN on google gave me a forum that linked to the latest Odin as this: http://sourceforge.net/projects/teamacid/files/fb/flash/Odin3 v1.85.zip/download?use_mirror=tenet and as it was sourceforge, I assumed it was the latest.

I understand you get many new people on here who never search. Your forum is massive. I made the mistake of not looking specifically in "development" as you look like an app developer site. Developers get heavily involved in stuff I know nothing about and, as I said, I usually find firmware updates in a modding/rooting forum.
I'll look at the details here, which seems to have links to files and be exactly what I'm looking for. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1034145
However, the link http://forum.xda-developers.com/attachment.php?attachmentid=570045&d=1302939745 to the Odin multidownloader is only 257 bytes and doesn't work.
Please bear in mind I'm in China and although my proxy can get Facebook, Youtube and most other sites to work, we cannot use multiupload/megaupload on any browser with any proxy.
Thank you for your help.
David.
Edit: So far all links searching for Odin 4.38 are on multiupload.com and I cannot access them. Frustrating!

Thanks SGA. I want to follow the instructions on the link Tossan gave (C. Flashing the newest firmware, but I can't download Odin. For some reason it is <300 bytes in size; although reporting as a .rar file, nothing can open it.
The Odin I downloaded from sourcefourge (v1.85) is 417KB and opens/runs properly.
I have the firmware; checksum verified.
Where can I find the other files, not on mega/multiupload?
David.
The Odin you want is 4.38. Searching "Odin Multi 4.38" on Google you should find it. It's 444kb in size, and often an rar file extension. You'll need cooper_v1.ops too.

If you've managed to download the rom from samfirmware.com, than you should also try to download Odin directly from there (-> Flashprograms / Flashguides).
You should report to hubix in his thread about the Odin file attachement problem, to give him a chance to correct it and other users to benefit from your discovery.

Sorry, I couldn't download from there, I looked at the file ID and searched online; finally found it on Hotfile.
I'll let hubix know regards the files. Thanks for the suggestion.
The good news is it worked! My wife is very happy to be able to read English on her phone now.

Edit: I learned I needed "Odin Multi Downloader v4.38" for the S5830, and as I had a one package install I had to:
1) On ODIN click the OPS button and load the Cooper_v1.0.ops file on it that I downloaded.
2) Click on the One Package button then select and load the Single S5830XWKS3_S5830XWKS2_S5830VIRKP1_HOME.tar.md5 file.
3) Click start and let it do it's magic.

Seems either you cannot follow instructions or something .
Find your kernel match as near to a cwm kernel as per the instructions flash with Odin = rooted whats the problem .
Why do you want root when you are having extreme difficulty with the very basics and dont seem able to or want to read and understand anything at all .
Help! Which file do I use ?
Listen closely, for I will say zis only once!
Go to Settings -> About phone -> Kernel Version. Note the string present there:
2.6.35.7-I9100XXKG1-CL349526
What matters most (KG1) in this case, is in bold. Try to find the matching file under downloads:
CF-Root-SGS2_XX_OXA_KG1-v4.1-CWM4.zip
The XX and OXA identifiers are not that important. Usually a "KG1" kernel is a "KG1" kernel, and that is that. Sometimes (pretty rare) it happens there will be multiple different kernels with the same name in different firmwares, that are actually different. If this happens, they are usually only very minor changes and you should expect them to still be fully compatible. I include the "XX" and "OXA" identifiers so the very advanced users can deduce from which full firmware I have taken the kernel file.
Don't worry too much, just find the matching download and use it. What if there is no matching download ?
Instructions - ODIN (long)
- Follow these instructions to the letter. Do not touch any buttons or checkboxes that are not listed below to touch!
- Unzip the attached CF-Root-xxx-vX.X.zip
- (USB) Disconnect your phone from your computer
- Start ODIN
- Click the PDA button, and select CF-Root-xxx-vX.X.tar
- Put your phone in download mode
- (USB) Connect the phone to your computer
- Make sure repartition is NOT checked
- Click the START button
- Wait for the phone to reboot

I don't know why I'm bothering to respond to you considering your behaviour in this thread, but I'm just going to go out on a limb here and guess that you're not on K14 at all, and are in fact on KI4.
If that is indeed the case, the download links in JKay's thread work perfectly well for both the themes and the V13.1 settings APK.
I wish there was a "vote to ban" button, because you're a fidiot, and no that's not a typo. This community has no place for people like you.
Can't believe you made me sign in just to reply to this... But you sir are a total ****, People like you that can't understand simple instructions and follow rules and guidelines do not belong on this earth. Your IQ must be around 5 if that. Why you would even want to root your phone i don't know. Because anything from now onwards will be a little bit more complicated than simple rooting, (Installing a ROM etc.)
So please, do us all a favour and leave this forum, everything you could possibly need is in the search function.. But it sounds like you need a search function just to find the search function...

What do you mean with 'root file'? If you search for guides, for example here on xda, you can just follow the steps.
Please don't ask for the best way to root your phone or something like that...

You can flash a custom kernel with Odin (or even find other methods). If you search and read a bit, I think it shouldn't be that hard to figure out which ones and where you can find them. No offence, but this has been covered for so many times by now, so the answers are already out here.

I don't really think you can root your phone with a stock ROM
The way to root via odin is with a kernel.
if you don't know how, i recommend http://galaxys2root.com/
No disrespect intended....but forget galaxys2root.com........all the info you need can be found right here on XDA......and the chances are that 'other' websites got their info here anyway.......
As previously mentioned.....rooting with a custom kernel is your best bet......
Some kernels require flashing via Odin, but at least one can be flashed via the stock recovery.....
You can also use chainfires cf root.
Read some of the 'stickeyed' threads under the various S2 forums for links to the info you need.

Hmm i'm not totally clear on what you're trying to say.
I know there are lots of methods to root at xda, but as i used it myself and was very confident while using their guides i just recommended it insted of looking for a good root method here. ( i haven't searched for any in xda as it's unnecessary)
And as most of guided are originated from xda as keithross said, we can easily help the person whether the guide is from xda or elsewhere.
The points that mistahbungle and I are making are...
1) the OP is here on XDA.
2) YOU are here on XDA
3) all the info that the OP needs is here on XDA.
And yet here you are, referring the OP AWAY from XDA......
What's the point in that?
And for info.....everything I looked at on that website has or appears to have been kanged straight from XDA anyway.....including rom and kernel assets (I think alliance rom and jeboo kernel to name just two were created by devs who posted them on XDA)......without mention of XDA or the devs who actually did all the hard work to create the software........not exactly showing support for the community, is it?
