Have you tried installing old apk versions online and even current ones or have you just tried from the google play store? I am 100% certain it is possible to get whatsapp on a galaxy ace because mine came with it on unrooted and completely stock ROM.

[Q] Difference between GT-S5830 and GT-S5830I

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....

How to visually tell the difference of if its S5830i or S5830?
You can't its visually completely identical to S5830

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.

Want to help prevent hardbricks from rom manager on galaxy ace?

I have successfully bypassed hardbricking from rom manager on my galaxy gio and made a guide about how to do that. You are probably thinking right now "but wait, ace and gio are different phones! This can't work!" Well, wrong. This has also been confirmed to work on galaxy fit. So i need someone to test rom manager my safe way (which is 99.9% safe). My tester needs the following:
A Samsung galaxy ace, rooted and vem installed.
Have the ability to take screenshots.
Want to prevent hardbricks from incorrectly using rom manager
Please pm me if you're interested. I will give you instructions from there.

No, you make rom manager use your current recovery and configures to use that one.

Stop posting stuff like this. Rom Manager isn't 100% compatible with ace yet. It will brick any ace on stock firmware (you know, the firmware EVERY NEW USER STARTS WITH WILL BRICK WITH ROM MANAGER)
Rom Manager requires a custom kernel and cwm5 installed to have a chance of working brick free.

TThe rom manager included in CM7 official does not brick.
But tge one which I dl from play store bricked my phone.
I guess you need CWM compatible kernel before using.

Hi
ive recently flashed to CM 10.1 which is running android 4.2.2.
id like to get some stock s3 apps like internet, video player gallery and contacts back but i cant figure out a way to do that.
there was a thread on the-area51.com(cant give the link as im a new user) named "samsung galaxy s3 jellybean stock apk's download " about this
but it doesnt work as its made only for 4.1.2 any help or suggestions please ?

You can't use the stock apps because they require samsung framework which is only in stock roms. If you want stock apps,.you.must use a stock rom.
