[S5830] How to flash the Stock ROM - Galaxy Ace S5830 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hello,
first of all, I am a total xda-noob (as told by the video) and my deeper Android knowledge is quite small.
Well, I'm seriouly considering to put the Cyanogen mod on my phone and now I have a question about going back to the stock ROM. I've made a backup of the stock ROM using Clockworkmod Recovery and this made seven files which can be seen in the added image. Now I'm wondering how I can go back to the stock ROM if CM doesn't fit me. I know I have to restore the backup in recovery mode but I think I'm right if I say this isn't enough. Can someone tell what to do exactly, as I am very cautionous. Or are there other ways to flash my stock ROM? Thanks in advance! MY CURRENT ANDROID VERSION IS GINGERBREAD 2.3.5
P.S. If this is already answered in another thread or if this placed wrongly, please tell me and I apologize for that.
UPDATE
After some searching I found this small tutorial which fitted my expectations. It said that it can indeed simply be done by restoring it in recovery mode by simply selecting the backup folder. Can someone comfirm this?

Almost right.
Cyanogenmod roms use a different format for the system, called 'ext4'. Stock roms use 'rfs' format.
Before restoring you have to convert to rfs. The easy way to do this is flashing a stock firmware with odin and your phone connected to the pc.
Quick guidelines to restore stock backup:
-flash a stock firmware through odin
-root
-flash cwm through recovery
-restore your backup
-you'll have everything exactly the same way you had it when creating the backup.
If you don't get any of the steps, read through the forum, specially the stickies (you wouldn't have opened this thread if you did so in the first place).

Thank you for answering. About everything is clear now and I understand what I'll have to do. I now understand there is indeed a difference between restoring and flashing a ROM. I've found an online guide which tells me how to use Odin. Only one more question: before using Odin, do I have to factory reset and clear cache partion? I think I do but I'm not quite sure. And if I do this before using Odin, will my phone even be able to boot in recovery mode/download mode? Thanks in advance!

jst wipes user apps and datas in int memory...

Are you mental or just plain sadistic? Telling new ace users to try Rom Manager?
ROM MANAGER WILL BRICK YOUR ACE.
Only under some very specific conditions rom manager works in the ace, if you don't know them, stay away from this app.

You want to help people or make them brick their phones? It is common knowledge that ROM Manager doesn't work properly on Ace.....

Maybe he can use stock lite rom?

Use Odin, I always use to use it when I accidentally bricked my phone

Help!! Boot loop stuck!

On, I flashed overcome, and it gave me a new recovery. I then restored my stock ROM backup. It got stuck in a boot loop
Now I can't boot to recovery!! Help!!
I can get to download now, but how can I get to recovery? Please please help!!

Get the overcome kernel in .tar format, flash it via odin. You should get a recovery mode.
Or find a CWM in the dev section flashable from odin or heimdell.

I love you man. seriously. Your effort is really really really appreciated. I can't express it in words. Thanks a lot man, you're a legend!
So will this definitely fix my problem? So, flashing the kernel should also give me the recovery right? so from there, I press volume up and power, and will that give me the overcome recovery?
then do i just restore my overcome backup, and reboot, will everything be wokring as it should?
Thanks a lot once again man, you have really saved my pants, I feared the worse for my tab!
Btw, when I was on overcome, I never managed to nandroid restore.
Not bootloop, just the result force closes. And I had to wipe data and restore from TB.
Edit: kernel download fine from here.
Have you heard of the anonymouse site?
Sometimes you can use that to proxy.

Thanks! But once I have the Overcome recovery back, will my overcome backup restore? Will that work and be possible?
So once i flash the kernel, can i access the recovery by volume up and power? Can you confirm this please mate? Cause at the moment, pressing it does nothing, but i guess it is because i have no recovery installed, am i right?
cheers

Ok. try this.
If you were in overcome ROM, if you are on the SAMSUNG bootloop and get into download, you should get into recovery by flashing the overcome kernel.
if not we'll try something else.

So he won't get get his old overcome backup from the Nandroid restore?
That is strange but since I wasn't in overcome rom for long I trust you with it
If that is the case, then you may need to restock or reinstall overcome kernel.
Man, you are a legend!! Worked brilliantly!!
Got to recovery, just restored my backup, thanks for all mate, really really appreciated!

Glad it works buddy. Almost everyone of us here has been through these situations and I know how it feels.
Seems like it works for you.
It was strange that my nandroid restore always bad in overcome.
Maybe just unlucky... but haven't been on overcome for long.

Funny that you asked. I just bookmarked Priyana's ICS install instruction.
There is no official ICS for our tab and will never be. There is a value-pack update coming, a gingerbread with some ICS taste.
However, there are several unofficial ICS roms around. CM9 and AOKP-SGT7 being the most stable ones (although many people still have small problems with some stabilities and inconcistancies). am on AOKP myself - for the past 3 months - and happy with it.
For AOKP install instruction, refer to this

you are halfway done through installing AOKP, btw.

Woo hoo, brilliant, I might try to install later on when I'm familiar with overcome.
Having said that, overcome was working brilliantly for me, but this morning, my device rebooted 3 time! After that I got random force closes, and now the apps won't load.
Is this due to the kernel being undervolted? Which app can I use to overvolt? SetCPU only seems to let me undervolt, not overvolt... Any suggestions mate?

Probably more like factory reset wipe needed.. if not worse, the problem priyana told you about earlier. On how restoring from an overcome back up may give you force closes on apps.

It was funny that not many people mentioned it in Overcome.
I think it is the CWM in Overcome Kernel that is the problem.
You can try RedPill 2.0.1 kernel.
In my experience the battery drain was better than Overcome, it works with Overcome ROM.
But I think it could be the nandroid backup that is the issue, meaning Redpill recovery likely won't help with backup that was taken using Overcome recovery.

Switched the tab on this mormig, and I got all the FC messages again, and WiFi won't turn on!!
What the hell is wrong????

Assuming that you made a backup in your original recovery, just restore it. Otherwise you have quite the adventure ahead of you.

It looks harder than in fact it is. If u find nice tutorial how to get back to stock using odin, you wont encounter any barriers
You can't restore a backup to get back to stock rom. You'll need odin.
I dont understand why people dont figur this out before they mess with they're phone lol. No offence, but I really wanted to be sure of how to get back to stock before I flashed a custom one.

If you made a backup of your ROM before rooting, changing ROMs etc, you should be able to go back to stock. How did you root it? Flashable zip in recovery or with Odin? I used the recovery and know for a fact that I can go back to stock by restoring my stock backup. Not sure if it'll remove root access or not though. If it doesn't then you can always run the unroot.zip
How do you backup your rom without root acces? You'll need cwm right?

Stock firmware is the original samsung firmwares not edited not rooted not tweaked nothing
ROM could be many thing TW is like samsung based firmware but has a few extra touches like rooting some tweaks and apps that requires root stuff like that
And another kind is on CyanogenMod this sort of roms offers speed more smoothnes and lot better performance than touchwiz but still with it you cant use s-pen features like on the stock and some other bugs
And there are AOKP they are similiar in looks like CyanogenMod but with a really masive customizations available in there
So thats the main thing you should kniw

you can try wiping /system /preload /data /cache /dalvik cache and flash the stock rom again or you can try custom roms of your choice after reading from here. (dont ask which is the best, just read reviews, watch youtube videos and decide for yourself)
Edit: you can flash philz kernel first from here first and then do all the wipes:

Look, you're having problems with the stock ROM, after the update. Now u have some choices,
1)Going back to ICS using sammobile and ODIN.
2)Flashing the PhilZ kernel using the link given by treacherous_hawk and then doing those wipes and again install JB using ODIN, like you did earlier. yes it'll wipe all the data so better back up the phone on PC before doing the wipes.
3) Use custom ROMs. You can read about the custom ROMs in the Android development forum, there are methods to root with the CWM recovery and then how to install custom ROMs.

Yesterday I had flashing philz kernel XXLT6 and then did rooted with rootsuperuser file (install at cwm).
And now when turn on phone, opening 'galaxy note n7000' show with caution sign, that sign was never shown before. Is it safe for my note? Was it true behave?
What should i have to do? with right step actually. What first, what then, what last.

you got the yellow exclamation mark because you used the .tar file for philz kernel. if you use the .zip file and flash it from stock recovery you automatically get root and no yellow triangle. You can remove the yellow triangle using the "triangle away" app from play store( paid version, if you consider donating) or search for free version on XDA. use that to get rid of yellow triangle.
That is the yellow triangle you've got. Don't worry mate. It's just a symbol, if u wanna get rid of it, go to the Android development forum here and there will be a thread for how to remove yellow triangle, read that. The sign is nothing to be worried about. Now you have rooted, you can flash the various custom ROMs and be extremely carefull to follow the instructions in the ROM thread before you flash.
Hmm okay guys.
So um, what should i have to do first? Wiping data and then install new stock rom or reinstall kernel firstly or what?
I was read in android dev.thread and got nothing exactly the same with my problems. I need some right step to doing stuff (philz kernel, wipe data, update new stock), so that nothing bad will happen to note.

if you are not on safe kernel, you should install safe kernel first like philz (which i guess you already did) boot into recovery mode and do all the wipes (if you do not want to save any data). put the phone in download mode connect to computer, open pc odin, click pda select the stock rom from save location and click start. Once finished put the philz kernel on ext sd card (the one corresponding to your stock rom) and go to stock recovery and install zip from ext card and select the philz kernel .zip file and you should be good to go.

Once finished wiping, we should choose 'reboot system' or just 'power off' , and go to download mode after that?

If the contacts are in phone memory they would get deleted.. If you go to mounts/storage and choose the last option mount usb while connected to computer and delete everything on internal memory (not on external sd) you will be able to clear up usb storage space too but then you will lose what's app data (example)..

If you go to mounts/storage and choose the last option mount usb while connected to computer and delete everything on internal memory (not on external sd) you will be able to clear up usb storage space too but then you will lose what's app data (example)..

Dear all;
Today i finally decided to unlock the bootloader and s-off the device..but after these..my wifi was not working ...and still stucked at the turning on wifi phase.
Factory reset wiping cache did not help
I found out that i should flash a newnstock rom...but to be honest i did not find the stock 4.3 for the european device (ruu).. i found some zips but the recovery stopped at verifying package when i said install from phone...so to be honest i have no clue how to proceed
How to flash it what to do? The guides are not always complete or the links were not working... i need help i will post the info on my device..
Would you be so kind and tell me what to do?
In details of course)
Thank you very very much

Umh, download from mike's thread the stock rom and flash this.
Or flash only the boot.img from fastboot.
Seems a kernel "issue"

Umh, download the stock rom from mike's thread.
Now, do a nandroid backup from recovery and after flash the rom.
I think there isn't any stock rom for your version main, so the easiest solution is this
However, you've tried to erase the cache from fastboot with the command: fastboot erase cache
??
Sent from One with Tapa4
Well i tried the wipe cache/ factory reset etc etc..
In the morning (cause its 2:23 am) i will try the nandbackup(although i have no clue about that) and then a 4.3 stock flash would be reasonable or not?
Thanks

Defo kernel issue.
- Get odexed from here
http://android-revolution-hd.blogspot.no/p/android-revolution-hd-mirror-site-var.html?m=1
Or whatever you desire
- Put the downloaded Rom on to your SD.
- Enter cwm/twrp recovery and do a nand (=backup of current ROM)
- install zip of new stock Rom.
Reboot when done.
Either this or just flash bulletproof kernel from flar. see if it gets sorted.

Well I installed TWRP, did a backup, with the default selection, after that I booted, and copied the files.,
Then I copied the odexed file to the device, booted into recovery, and installed it.
Now Wifi Works , and everything is on the "latest" release and still stock.
My question is:
What ROM-s can I try out? Only Odexed? Or Google Editions as well (from the link you provided) and if yes...
I just make a backup from the current setup, and copy it, and then recovery from the backup am I right?
But mainly my problem has been solved... So thank you very much !
Odexed or deodexed, whatever rocks your socks.. if you are gonna do some themeing of icons you need deodexed.
You are S-off and are free to flash loads of stuff.
Google edition? Sure test it out if you want to.
Sure, just back up current Rom and keep it safe on your phone if you can. Any problems occurs you can just restore it.

Rooting tab 8.9

Hi, I have been trying to root my P7310 tab using the instructions and root files I found in several threads. My problem is that when I boot in recovery mode I don't get in the list of options the one that says 'apply update from SD card', I only get the option of updating from external storage or cache.
Anyone could help me with this?
Thank you,
C

Use the guide from here by nirogu325 http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1406137
It has all that you need. And when in recovery, it's not necessarily 'apply update from SD card'. Just choose the zip file that you have to flash to gain root. I suggest that you use TWRP recovery on this thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2602188
Thanks for your help, I will try the instructions although they look a bit complicated for a near novice like me. My problem with the zip file is that when I am in recovery mode I cannot select any path leading to the SD Card root folder where the zip has been uploaded. It drives me nuts, it seems to work for everyone else but me!

The original gingerbread recovery had an option to flash zips. The ICS recovery did not. Rooting was way easier on GB because of this. The only way to root ICS is to install a custom recovery to flash a root.zip file.
Make sense, something to keep me busy next weekend...

Didn't know that. Never touched the original firmware that came with my tab. It was only when I upgraded to ICS via odin that I started tinkering with it.

Instructions from the guide are relatively easy to follow. Just read the whole lot. I think it would be better if you upgrade to ICS first if your still in Honeycomb.

Right, honeycomb, not gingerbread. I got my sweets mixed up. I don't think this tab ever had GB.

I am on ICS, I think this is why I cannot simply use the zip file with the standard recovery options. Will try the instructions and report.

You need to install a custom recovery with odin. Then you flash the zip file in the custom recovery.

Yes, the guide tells you that you need to flash custom recovery before you could flash any zip file.

Ok, I think I need some help. I cannot flash zip drives from the standard ICS recovery as I do not get the option of accessing the SD card (see photo attached) so I can't either root or flash CWMR zip. As suggested I have tried Odin but there are no instructions on how to flash a CWMR zip in the tread, only how to flash ROMs. I have tried to search with the PDA or BOOTLOADER buttons but I cannot load a zip file in Odin. I am really not sure what to do now?
can you help?
Thanks very much,
C
You need to flash a .tar.md5 file in Odin. See this http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2602188

CyanogenMod instaled and unusable, I have installed GoogleApps separately but they do not show up anywhere. The browser does not work so I cannot try to access gooleplay. The PC does not recognise the tablet any more and I cannot transfer files. Well done me!
I suppose I could go back installing a stock ROM with Odiin, the problem is that the only post I have found with stock ROMs has links to Hotfiles.com which is no longer in service. Can anyone direct me to any other link where I could download a stock ROM for P7310?
Thank you.

Done! Not without drama... At first the system would not reboot, had to flash custom recovery, wipe everything and flash the ROM again and then it restarted. Not sure I am going to mess up with my tab again! Stuck to ICS forever it seems...

Well yeah I didn't mention that you should do a full wipe first because I thought you already knew that
anyway, hopefully messing up with your tab won't be necessary, cuz stock ICS is the best, personally I use this tweaked one:
[ROM][ICS][STOCK][P7300/P7310][LQJ/LPV][Deodexed/Odexed] Final Build [14/1/14]
It is the best!!!:victory:
Cheers, what are the differences with the tweaked ROM you have?

Agree, I've tried the 10.1.3 and 10.2 CM versions before. But IMHO, overall performance is not on par with stock ICS.

It's a matter of preference, actually. In my case, I used the original firmware on the thread and tweaked it to my liking.
