[Q] Galaxy Ace [S5830] ROMs/Tools - Galaxy Ace S5830 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi all.
I was wondering about how to get the ff. functions on my SGAce S5830:
1. Haptic Feedback
2. LED flashlight control (Market apps don't work)
3. Custom ROM update (New FW + Root)
Also, I ran the Super One Click rooting tool (v1.7) and it was successful. But when i ran AdFree, it said that it couldn't find a partition to write the files to..
Any help pls? TvmIA

Flashlight:
https://market.android.com/details?id=com.devuni.flashlight&feature=search_result

2. There's free market app (Search: samsung led)
3. There's no custom ROMs atm but you can flash the newest unofficial software with my tutorial: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=12874680#post12874680

adFree?
I use netwark firewall software..
it can prevent the app to connect to Internet..

no.1 XDA Rule

Just installed your rom , looking good so far ! Offcourse I need to test it a bit more to give a good judgement. Thanks for your rom !!
NB: Maybe you should remove adw ex from the rom ? As far as I know it is a paid app ?

[Q] want to switch from CM7 nightly to XXJVS?

just wanted to know if there are any things i should watch out for when switching over to a Samsung rom from CM7?
currently i have a standard CM-style setup ie. CM7 nightly #104, CWM 3. Baseband version is JVK.
any particular rom you would like to recommend?
Just remember your Odining skills, backup your stuffs, wipe cache and data things and flash a stock rom with on 100% battery. After that flash whatever rom you like.
well i came from miui.... backed up some apps like whatsapp etc.. full odin jvs rom + repartition.. all is good.. doubt i'll go back to miui or cm7

As well as the actual Rom the Rom zip should contain a .pit file put this in the "pit" section of odin an tick reparation, add other files to their respective place and flash.
It might pay to take a look at some of the guides around so you know exactly what you are doing.

At the moment I'm on stock JVS with semaphore kernel and stock+ addon (in the theme section) for extended power menu and asop lockscreen. Seems stable and responsive, maybe not as quick or customizable as CM7 but for the moment it is doing me well.
Apologies for multiple replies.

completed with success... worth noting that i lost the sim unlock... but it was easy enough to re-unlock afterwards with the free sgs unlock app.

Guys, I need help... I already flashed SK4 (I wiped everything before flashing SK4). Noticed that there's no Market App so I Googled it and found the apk. I installed it but whenever I try to open It just asks for an account then when I press OK, it just goes back to the home screen.
I downloaded the apk 3 times from 3 diferent sources, but it still doesn't work... I even flashed SK4 3 times also, same procedure, still, the Market doesn't work.
I hope u can help me...

Problems with Market and WhatsApp

Hello, I'm just new in the Android world. I just acquired an HTC Tattoo and an Xperia X8.
In the X8 I have the n4n kernel with latest nighly cyanogenmod (20)
In Tattoo I have the stock kernel with latest nighly cyanogenmod (22)
With the Tattoo I don't have any problem.
But with the X8 I can't access to the Market (latest installed version 3.4.4) . I also tried with older markets (3.1.2, 2.2.x). When I try to open the app, it don't open. It ask to create an account and it don't make anything after that. Also tried with mini CM 2.1.9.
And with WhatsAPP it just don't install (yes I have third parties apps enabled)
Can somebody help me, please?
Thanks

do you have sim card in your x8?

and i dont use whatsapp so i cant tell about that
Press thanks if i helped

Yes I have the SIM card. But this not necessary because with Tattoo it's not a requeriment.

Hello, I tried wiping all data and nothing. I don't belive that changing the ROM is the solution, remember I'm trying with two ROMs (CM-Nighlty-20 and miniCM 2.1.9).

if you use titanium backup you will see that there are plenty google apps installed,if by any chance you unistall one of those you may not be able to access the market but if you havent unistall any of this then your problem doesnt have to do with that....

Rootable firmware

Hey guys, which one of the newest firmwares are rootable? I downloaded some of the newest ones and the ace ginger root file doesn't work for it so I had to downgrade until I found one that was rootable.
Sorry if this has already been asked or talked about before but I'm a little off on the Cooper forums xD

I tried the upd_1.zip on ddkq8 & it had worked. But when I flashed int2ext+ on BE kernel, device didn't boot & after a factory reset via cwm, it did. But this time, all the apps that need root access like the cwm, sd maid, etc., failed to open up & stuck on black screen with the app name label at the top. What could be the reason ?
Sent from my Galaxy Ace GT-S5830 using xda premium
Let's clear something up !
First of all, ALL ROMS can be rooted !
I have alot of experience in that, and after 3 years of testings first and only problem when u try to root a rom is SYSTEM free SPACE !
So, before complain that a rom cannot be rooted, just see how much free space u got (u can do that without root, using last 3.0 root explorer).
After u do that, make a flashable zip only with meta scripts that remove Maps.apk or something, than try again. It's 100000% workin !
Peace all !
Hi everybody!
You could easily remove bloatware (and much more) via aroma filemanager 1.8, just mount all, install zip from sdcard, select aromafm-1.80.zip run it and enjoy. The easiest way! Good luck.

There's a bloatware removal script for galaxy y that works even for ace. It works even without root. It is just a updater script that removes many unwanted apps. Just flash via recovery. Easy as that

As aromafm-1.80.zip by Amarullz is a file manager for all android , you can: remove or add any file anywhere, change the names of all the files , etc.

Thank you! Downloading. Thanks for everything guys. I gave cooper to my girlfriend and I had Stock on Fire installed and it's giving her problems. The /system seems to have gotten corrupted somehow and a lot of apps FC and when I try making a Nandroid it stops at backing up system.
I'm about to just flash the latest stock rom, root it and add the all in one ICS/lockscreen mod and just leave it there. Do you guys recommend anything else? I just want something that I can leave it at and not worry about anymore.

Hi SuperAce609, yesterday I installed S5830BUKT2_S5830VODKT1_S5830XWKT8_HOME.tar.md5, erased Thinkfreeoffice with aromafm-1.80, rooted with upd_1.zip, installed CWM recovery, flashed BE kernel and int2ext+, updated superuser and Google play and all went like a charm. I made it for practising and remembering the old times. Now, I'm back on my favorite rom again, but as I said before all went fine. Cheers.
