I really tried but I cant flash a ROM for my ACE "i" - Galaxy Ace S5830i Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hello everbody,
I tried many times but it doesnt work!
Here's the steps Im doing:
- Flash my phone with ODIN, everything works.
- I check in the apps if Im superuser: i am
- I enter the recovery mode and enter the CWM
- I do all the wipe
- I install the rom from SD
- install successfull
-I push back and reboot the system
now the problem comes out.
The cell its like freezing on the "Samsung Galaxy Ace GT..." screen, I tried to wait up untill 1 hour, but nothing happen.
note: if I try to shut it down with the power button, it turns on again, but freezes everytime on the same screen
note2: if I try the button.combo to get in the Recovery mode, it doesnt function
What I do next?
I enter the "Download mode" and re-flash the phone with ODIN

Flash stock first. When wiping dont wipe system. Some roms dont like wiping system.

Link to the rom, you are trying to flash?
If you are on stock rom you'll be on stock recovery (RED one!)
You have to install ClockWorkMod Recovery from stock recovery and flash desired rom from there...

Try to change kernel. Use stock one in ace i sure and flash. If it doesnt work after flashing the rom you want, try rafaels or hell locks kernel.
Even than nothing works flash stock. Use iamareebjamals boot extractor script. Flash custom rom as usual. Use the extracted boot image to recover stock boot. And if this works root your phone. It shoul be ok than.
Good Luck...

Unable to install CyanogenMod 7 again!!!

Hello guys,
I would have not made this post without a reason! I have searched the froum and used google for over 2 days but dont have a solution for my problem that's why i opened the thread!
My SGS2 was on CyanogenMod 7 and i decided to try the leaked version of 4.0.3 (I9100XXKP8 to be exact) so i preformed a full backup via recovery!
After this i flashed 4.0.3 using ODIN and used it did a root on it and istalled CM9. I did this just to see the real difference between the 2 firmwares. Everything worked great i had no problems at all.
After i was finished playing around with the firmwares i decided to restore my CM7 backup! I had no problems booting into recovery and the restore worked fine! no errors or anything. After i selected to reboot my device i got a Kernel Panic and couldn't do anything!
So i flashed KI3 stock from sammobile and rooted it via CF and then again i tried to install CM7 which goes fine through the install no errors! when i select to reboot the phone i have the ''Samsung galaxy s2 screen'' in a reboot loop! I reflashed the phone again with KI3 and tried again i followed the instruction step by step including wiping data/factory reset and wiping cache the same thinghappens. I tried to restore the CM7 back which i made, the restore process goes through but i get a kernel panic! So i reflashed KI3 again i thought it could have been the bootloader... i got the old boot loader and flashed it but i keep getting the boot loop! The strange thing is i can flash CM9 and it works but CM7 will not install on my phone at all! I have tried flashing it 10 times in the last 2 days.
Can anyone help me fix this and get back to CM7 because i dont know what to do anymore my flash count went from 5 to 39 in the last 2 days!
Note: i have tried using recovery and RomManager neither of them work! Also tried Stable CM 7.1.0 and nightly builds!
Try this and then restore again:

Hi,
i have tried this now and i am still getting a reboot loop! So it dose not work at all :[
I'v had the same problem. It was solved by flashing the .pit file for cm7 with odin.
That is very strange. I assume that you did a factory reset after that procedure?

Yes i reset everything there was i did this whole guide step by step about 20 times tried everything! i even had help from the guys working on CM9. They couldn't help and told me to open a thread here :[
Well, the pit file is probably the best bet then. Good luck when you get it.
By the way I meant a factory reset after the kernel clean and restore.
Kernel clean -> restore -> factory reset.

I have tried this still no luck :[ Also tried previous back ups but the are not working either. I also tried to flash Villian rom 3 now and the only thing that happens it stays on ''Samsung Galaxy s2'' screen no reboot or anything for bout 10 min. tried to go into recovery but it isn't working :[ back to flashing KI3 again!
Which kernel were you using when you originally made that cm7 backup? Was it the stock cm7 kernel or perhaps siyah's? The kernel panics are probably due to using a cm9 kernel(recovery 5.5...) to restore a cm7 backup and then using cf-roots ki3 kernel(recovery 4.2...)to restore a cm7 backup. I'd try flashing siyah's kernel(recovery 5.0...) through odin and then try to restore that backup.

Good point, the first install is usually quick, the 2nd one takes much longer and does the whole shebang.

Now i have also tried to do a fresh install of CM7 with the 5.0.2.7 recovery but it didn't work! I would be great full if anyone could help me!
Boot into recovery
wipe data/factory reset
goto mounts and storage > format system
install cm7 from sd card, then install it again right after
reboot
If this doesn't work throw the phone against the wall because this should work, unless flashing those bootloaders messed something up, or you flashed the wrong one.
as a last resort....
flash stock firmware.
flash cfroot kernel
try to flash cm again.
always works for me.

[Q] Galaxy ace stuck on "galaxy ace gt 5830 samsung"

Guys can you help me, what am i gonna do, this is my second time, i dont flash or anything just added cwm
which cwm do you flash?
can you go to cwm mode?
You can recover by installing new firmware from Odin. Google it
This problem had occured to me as well. But ivwas able to enter cwm recovery. I just flashed a custom rom and it was all well after.

Try this
If you can enter recovery mode, try this - format system, format cache and reboot .. i think this can solve your problem. It has happened with me a couple of times and with this I was able to reboot phone without flashing another ROM.

Weird issue when flashing to CM9

cm-9.0.0-RC2-galaxys2.zip
Went to recovery mode, chose install zip file, chose cm-9.0.0-RC2-galaxys2.zip and flashed it, rebooted the system and nothing happend, the phone took me to recovery mode again.
Where I was wrong ?
Thx.
Which recovery are you using? If it's not ClockworkMod Recovery (I should say any custom recovery) you won't be able to flash any custom ROM.

I do have CWM 3.15.
No idea why it didn't flash, and I flashed A LOT of roms including RR 2.6.1/Wanam and more.
I just wanted to feel CM9 on my phone but with no success, any ideas ?
Cwm 3 seems a bit old. Latest Siyah (which I'm currently running) has Cwm 5.
Maybe you should try with that.
Have you done ALL wipes that are necessary?

I did all the wipes, in fact I forgot to mention that I had RR 2.6.1 and after I did all the wipes I flashed to CM9, after i flashed it, I rebooted the device (since nothing happend) and only then, I saw I have a different CWR! - Yea the device booted to recovery !
I tried to flash CM9 AGAIN (with the CWR 3), it said done/completed, still nothing happend, I rebooted again and it came back to recovery, AGAIN.
Only then I flashed to Wanam 12.3 and after that to Siyah - so yea NOW I have CWM 5 and everything is working great.
I still have absolute no clue what on earth I am doing wrong ?!
I still want to flash to CM9...need all the help I can get !
No one knows if there is a solution for this issue ?
Right now I am on Wanam 12.3 rom with Siyah Kernel 3.5.2, and I want to flash to CM9.
I go to recovery do all 3 wipes, choose the zip file flash and it says 'completed' but nothing happens.
This isn't the first time I am flashing...never happend to me before!
Experienced users please do write your thoughts.
Thank you.
Try the latest Nightly. NOT RC2!

I'll download the file, and this weekend will flash via: recovery -> install zip file from internal after the 3 wipes.
Btw, we are talking about this file correct ? :http://download.cyanogenmod.com/get/jenkins/5572/cm-9-20120805-NIGHTLY-galaxys2.zip

If you don't have any important data, formats it into FAT32 by using computer or whatever.
If you can't afford to loose your data, try flash an exFAT supported kernel

That's right, probably it's exFAT formatted, try flashing Boeffla kernel, it supports exFAT and at the same time it's an amazing kernel.

The ext mem was not being recognised having installed latest omega, , so I followed your advice, flashed the boeffla-kernel-2.12.tar, using odin on my laptop, now, I turn the phone on, it only displays Samsung i9300, then nothing, I try to enter download mode or recovery pressing volume down, power and home, no responce.
Previously I had installed some rom management software on my i9300, I thought that might affect my ability to enter recovery.download mode.
Please advise.

Looking @ boeffla it says on the site:
Note: This kernel is only for Samsung based Jelly Bean (Android 4.1.x) roms!!! Do not install it on CM or AOSP based roms!!! And do not install on latest Samsung 4.2 leaks !!!
I am running 4.2.2, is it ok, to flash it?
Q: pressing power button holding, no option to boot into recovery, how can I change this?

Ow, that's the reason that explains all, don't use boeffla with 4.2.2, there are no kernels yet that I'm aware of for that firmware.
I don't recommend you 4.2.2 yet, not perfect yet.
For recovery, you have to press power+home+vol up, then release power button (not the others) once you see the first logo.
As said no kernels for 4.2.2 though the leaked rom is itself very stable for a beta rom .

flashed wrong CWM

Hello
I've accidentally flashed a wrong cwm-recovery (meant for some other phone)
After the installation I've rebooted into recovery and it booted the one I already had (that's when I understood it's the wrong one)
Then I've tried to reboot back to my rom but it got stuck on the rom's loading screen
Tried to flash a new rom after using gs2RomWipe
Tried to restore from a nandroid backup
all of them gave the same result.. stuck on the loading screen
Now to my question...
If I flash a stock Rom via Odin.. will it be enough? will I be able to reroot and use my phone normally again?
Or is there an easier way maybe?
i did the same today..
all the time bootloop..
flashing same rom that i was using did not helped..
flashing some other rom helped but cant call cause phone dont see simcard..
flashing some other roms like cyanogenmod also stuck my on bootloop..
I am pretty sure you have to flash via odin.
Update...
I've flashed a stock rom via Odin but it went into a bootloop
when I've entered recovery it said E:failed to mount efs (invalid argument)
so far I've found no way to make the phone work
please help

still nothing...
and it usually takes 1-2 mins max for me
also doesn't explain why stock from odin wont work
It seems to me that I need to somehow fix the efs folder but no idea how to do that
almost all the guides I've seen about that requires the rom to work and use root explorer
the others wasn't clear enough or just not related
according to the shell commands my efs folder is empty
copying the efs folder I have on my sdcard doesn't help because it's not there after reboot
I have a tar.gz as well but not sure how to use it
can I flash the .tar via odin? or some other solution with adb/shell?
or do you think it has nothing to do with my problem?
anyone have any idea how to help me???
I've tried many different ways but my device just wont make it past the loading screen of the rom (doesn't matter which one)
I really have no idea what can cause this problem
thought that flashing stock rom via Odin should fix it but it doesn't help
I've tried some methods I've seen to fix efs problems but so far nothing helped
I'm really desperate at the moment :\
download mode and flash the cwm kernel via Odin should work.

Did you get your device fixed?
OK.....just a quick thing......Odin flashing a normal single file stock firmware *may* not be the solution as it just overwrites what is already there during the flash. I will provide a link to a three part firmware that wipes the old as it flashes.....this essentially flashes the firmware onto 'pristine' memory partitions....it *might* help......
Here's the link.....

Search for @Hopper8s Odin troubleshooting guide for instructions on how to flash it.....
Good luck.....
This might be my S2, or it might be my W...but it's definitely CM
