Unable to flash ROM Galaxy Ace S5830

Problem solved long ago
Delete thread
Wrong thread to post in.
Anyways,
When you use "update from SD card" option the code is installed from "update.zip" in sdcard - so if there is some garbage code in update.zip it will corrupt the installed ROM on the device (or even the kernel - as might have happened in your case) and errors like bootloop and errors in recovery show up.
That being the background ... you should ask around in the galaxy ace section for specific instructions to use odin to restore your friends phone
Here's a little guide on how to flash a ROM via ODIN by me:
Requirements:
- A Windows computer
- A Galaxy Ace plugged into the computer via USB
- You must have ODIN installed , duh !
- (Windows Vista/7 compulsory) Running ODIN with Administrative rights:
- Ended KIES via Task manager:
Instructions:
1 - Download your favourite firmware here
2 - Extract the .rar out using WinRAR or 7zip (password is samfirmware.com)
3 - Check if it's a FULL package or ONE package:
FULL Package instructions:
1 - Open up ODIN (MAKE SURE ALL REQUIREMENTS ARE MET)
2 - Set your phone in Download Mode (Home + Power + Volume Down)
3 - Once you have correctly entered Download Mode and plugged in , this should appear in ODIN:
4 - Place the files in this order:
OPS - Select the file named Cooper_v1.0.ops (or anything like that)
BOOT - Select the file named "APBOOT_S5830xxxxx_CL514579_REV03_user_low_true.ta r.md5"
where "xxxxx" = Your firmware version
Phone - Select the file named "CODE_S5830xxxxx_CL514579_REV03_user_low_true.tar. md5"
where xxxxx = firmware version
PDA - DO NOT PLACE ANYTHING
CSC - Select the file named "GT-S5830-MULTI-CSC-xxxxxx.tar.md5"
where "xxxxxx" = the CSC region
EFS - Select the file named "MODEM_S5830xxxxx_CL514579_REV03.tar.md5"
xxxxx = firmware version (Be VERYVERY careful with this EFS part)
After you're done , click on "Start" and let the magic reveal itself slowly......
ONE Package method:
1 - Open up ODIN
2 - Set your phone in Download Mode while plugged into USB
3 - Tick the option "One Package" in ODIN (Refer to previous ODIN picture)
4 - Select the only .tar.md5 file
Now press start and watch the magic.....

Hello,
My friend used upd_1.zip from xda to root his phone and then flashed CyanogenMod 7.1-cooper-KANG-RC1 Android 2.3.7 as well as its fix.
He didn't get the "install zip from sdcard" option so, he chose the "apply update from sdcard" option and selected CyanogenMod 7.1-cooper-KANG-RC1 Android 2.3.7 halfway through it says "installation aborted" after this his phone doesn't proceed beyond the startup screen.
PLEASE HELP
Thanks in advance
PS: when I go to the recovery screen, a list of text comes up which says "unable to access...","cannot access cache", etc. All start with "E/..."

[Q] im in need of Rooting help

Greetings everyone,
im new to this and im very very confused, i bought a galaxy note and i was able to flash the latest firmware ICS 4.0.3 (Open German), but what i cant do is rooting the phone, and what is the exact point im failing at is creating an SDcard folder on the internal memory, i dont have an external SDcard, and as i have read on other threads :
Step 1: Download the following files from the official thread [XDA-Developers]:
CWM.zip
SU-Busybox-Installer.zip
Place all these files directly under /sdcard on your device’s internal memory.
Step 2: Shutdown your device. Once it is completely shut down, press and hold Volume Down + Power + Home buttons until you see a screen asking you to press to press Volume Up. Press said button to complete booting into Recovery Mode.
Step 3: Select apply update from external storage and then navigate to where you placed CWM.zip. Select it.
Step 4: Your device should now boot into ClockworkMod (CWM) Recovery.
Step 5: From CWM, choose install zip from sdcard > choose zip from sdcard > SU-Busybox-Installer.zip
Step 6: From main menu of CWM, choose reboot system now.
If you followed the steps correctly, your Samsung Galaxy Note International GT-N7000 will now be rooted on Android 4.0.3 ICS.
all the steps seems to be easy, and i failed on creating sdcard folder on internal memory, i would appreciate your help.
thanks alot

You need to put the zip file in the root directory of the internal memory (internal SD card). Then in CWM you need to choose install zip from internal SD card not from SD card.

sorry for asking alot, but actually i dont know that much about androids, what i did step by step is,
1- downloading the files
2- open phone storage via my computer
3- pasted the files once the screen opened and created a file named sdcard and pasted the files there too just in case.
4- turned off the phone, pressed vol up+homescreen+power
5- apply updates from sdcard
and after that i wait a couple of seconds and a message pops in red says
E:/failed to mount /sdcard(no such file or directory)
i was never able to reach CWM.
if you could patiently and gladly post me a step by step what should i do, i will be very appreciated and thanks in advance.
thanks for helping

I guess you are choosing the wrong option from the CWM
On the first screen of CWM recovery
1. choose "install zip from sd card"
2. On the next screen click "install zip from internal sdcard"
3. then goto the folder you created and then choose the SU zip file
Hope it helps...

my friend, im not even able to reach CWM, my phone is not rooted, im trying to root my phone, i cant reach CWM. i just need a way to Root my galaxy note ice 4.0.3
Ok try this turn phone off, turn on and quickly
press volume up, home and power at same time untill phone boots again, this is tricky may need couple tries. This will launch recovery. From there choose install update from... By navigating with volume buttons you can choose install from. This opens the sd card, choose the folder where you downloaded cwm.zip to, navigate with volume button to it. Click power button to select., navigate to yes and watch it install, after install you can use touch screen to options described in your first post. This will install superuser. After that is done reboot. In applications there is superuser. You are rooted now.

I did everything you said exactly but I got only super now but no CWM! And when I access root by some application it says you need root.
Here is what I did
1. Boot into recovery
2. Select install from sd
3. Selected external sd
4. Choose CWM.zip
5. Confirm install
6. Now recovery booted onto CWM
7. Select sd card (internal)
8. Choose su busy box from root folder
9. Confirm installation
10. Reboot device.
Now I can only see busybox not CWM!!!!!

Ok progress, but not full root. Download speedmod kernel on your phone, the cwm flashable zip from developer thread k3.
Speedmod is prerooted, and should together with already installed superuser provide full root. ICS one is k3 thread. The k3-3 one is stable and relatively safe. Best batterylife too.
Now restart procedure with cwm.zip instal. In cwm install the speedmod kernel zip and reboot. Now you should have full root. Test it by rebooting, opening superuser and in preferences select update binaries. Allow superuser acces for superuser. Select update. It should pass everything.
Cwm recovery is now also installed, but not as a link within applications. You can access it by rebooting and volume up, homekey and power combo. Speedmod has the wipe functionality that can break your phone disabled, same goes for factory reset. If you want that in future install throught pc odin, see stickies development thread drKetans thread, and do it safely from gb, and not ICS.

You can download speedmod from the download lin in first post of this thread. Not the sourcecode, but from the download link.

No, do the cwm.zip install, easiest. Odin is safest always, but because of triangle and binary counter I recommend cwm.
Just dont do factory reset/wipe from cwm. Thats what triggers the hardbrick in 99% of cases. Only small number of cases by installing through cwm.

OK now I got CWM and superSU and speedmod kernel. But still I don't have root access. M trying to remove Google ads thru lucky patcher but it gives error that I don't have root access .. Is there separate version for ICS? I got moved all the alps from gb thru TB.

Did you test by updating binaries throught superuser preferences?
Actually, if you followed procedure you should have superuser and not supersu .
Get it here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1647148
Best to reinstall throught cwm the superuser zip. And test root again
Edit, unstall supersu first. Then after zip install test update binaries

[TUTORIAL] Root access for ICS on I9100G

This is a compilation thread of the various root methods for the new ICS firmware on the I9100G. Special thanks to Codeworkx for his LP7 kernel, happysmith on the Chinese Gfan forum, and various other users in the Facebook I9100G group.
Method 1:
Advantages: Easy to do, permanent ClockworkMod recovery achieved.
Disadvantages: Increases flash counter. (No yellow triangle though.) Not 100% compatible with Stock 4.0.4 ROMs! You'll be able to root and use the system, but Bluetooth will stop functioning!
Prerequisites: Codeworkx's LP7 or ICS Kernel: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1631934
root.zip here: http://www.mediafire.com/?w3zzodjc1b8kqdh
Step 1: Download Codeworkx's LP7/ICS kernel and flash it using Odin.
Step 2: Put root.zip on either the internal or external SD card.
Step 3: Boot into ClockworkMod recovery by pressing Home Button + Volume Up key + Power key while your phone is turned off.
Step 4: Select install zip from sdcard.
Step 5: Select choose zip from sdcard/internal sdcard, depending on where you put root.zip.
Step 6: Flash root.zip and reboot.
Congratulations, you should now have root access.
Method 2:
Advantages: No flash counter increase or yellow triangle.
Disadvantages: Temporary ClockworkMod Recovery. You must have an External SD Card!
Prerequisites: The CWM.zip and root.zip from this file: http://d-h.st/R8y
Step 1: Put the CWM.zip onto your EXTERNAL SD Card and root.zip on external OR internal SD.
Step 2: Get into the stock recovery mode by pressing Home Button + Volume Up key + Power key while your phone is turned off.
Step 3: From there, select apply update from external storage, and select the CWM.zip.
Step 4: You should now be taken to CWM Touch Recovery, where you should select install zip from sdcard.
Step 5: Select choose zip from sdcard/internal sdcard, depending on where you put root.zip. (Your internal and external sdcard might have their locations switched with the other, so double-check!)
Step 6: Flash root.zip and reboot.
Congratulations, you should now have root access without binary increase or a yellow triangle.
ADVANCED Method 2:
Advantages: No flash counter increase or yellow triangle. Permanent ClockworkMod Recovery.
Disadvantages: More difficult than the other methods, but this will give you the best result once achieved. Not 100% compatible with Stock 4.0.4 ROMs! You'll be able to root and use the system, but Bluetooth will stop Functioning!
Prerequisites: Properly executed all steps from Method 2 and obtained root.
Codeworkx's LP7 or ICS Kernel: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1631934
Step 1: Download and install ktool from Google play.
Step 2: Extract the contents of Codeworkx's LP7 or ICS kernel.
Step 3: Find the file "zimage" and copy it onto your phone's storage.
Step 4: Use ktool to flash the "zimage" file. Reboot.
Congratulations, you now have achieved root with permanent ClockworkMod Recovery AND no flash counter increase.
I hope this helps all those who wants Root access on their newly-upgraded ICS system. Enjoy!

Which part are you stuck at? The stock recovery or CWM? You MUST use an external SD card to use the Stock recovery.
Unsure about Triangle, but definitely flash counter I think.
Would you please tell me which link to use for the custom kernel ?
LP7 - 5.5.0.4: Download (hacked LP7 kernel)
ICS - 5.5.0.4: Download (EXPERIMENTAL, built from sources, breaks wifi)
ICS breaks wifi does LP7 works on ICS ?
I'm stuck before applying the CWM. When I enter the recovery and select the option to apply, it does not recognize my sdcard ...
thanks, tested working.
if flash counter increase, can i reset it back using usb jig?

The ICS Kernel is built from Galaxy Tab 2 sources, which is not fully compatible. Use the LP7 one.

No one knows if the USB Jig works with the new bootloader. Most likely not.

That's incredibly strange. Only thing I can suggest is try another SD Card, or format it in FAT32 and try again.

It means that you will be back to the stock recovery the next time you try to get in, and you'll have to flash CWM.zip everytime you need CWM. But you will have root.
I flashed LP7 - 5.5.0.4 I can access to clockworkmod but when I try to install zip file it said unable to mount /sdcard but strangely I didn't have the used yellow triangle.
EDIT : I am sorry I was stupid, I choose the wrong card, I had to choose external, but even after flashing LP7 I hadn't the yellow triangle, now I have root access, I can access to CMW 5.0.4 when rebooting my phone holding home+volume up+power. So I think that it worked
Thank you very much
Thanks JiangYi
Just got my root access for the first ICS for GTi9100G = XXLPQ using method 2.
Copy two files to external card.
Flash CWM.zip
Flash root.zip
I did it with the first method, but I didn't got the yellow triangle now I'm wondring if installing CMW from google play would permit to have choice when rebooting phone to go to recovery, reboot or go to download.

[Q] A problem trying to flash PA

I have an N7000 with stock gb and stock KK2 kernel.
I followed these instructions from Dr. Ketans to root my galaxy note n7000: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1329360
Then I verified that it was indeed routed by downloading an app the claimed to check this. All seems ok so far.
Then I downloaded paranoid_note_v04a.zip & gapps-ics-20120511-fixed.zip
I'm pretty sure my download was ok since they will extract without errors.
Then I copied these two files to the note - in the DCIM folder (for lack of a better place to put it). I had to turn off usb debugging first, otherwise I couldn't do the copy of these two files.
Then I turned usb debugging back on again
Then I held the 3 buttons, got into "Android system recovery (3e)" and tried to flash the PA 04a. I quickly get the following error: E:signature verification failed
Do you know what I have done wrong?
I have a sneaking suspicion it's because I don't have something called CWM (although the routing instructions I was following never said I needed it).
If that's the answer, now that I'm routed what is the easiest way to get it.
Thanks
~Paul
if you have rooted your gn then download the cwm recovery in the link and put it in your external sd card go into your stock recovery (holding volume up + home + power buton) from there choose the second option i.e. apply update from sd card and navigate to where you have placed the downloaded cwm recovery and open it now you will be able to use cwm recovery and flash any rom without any error
http://forum.xda-developers.com/attachment.php?attachmentid=1056408&d=1336826886
As above you need cwm recovery to install paranoid.

problems with rooting my phone

i used this guide:
http://yagyagaire.blogspot.co.il/2011/08/how-to-root-samsung-galaxy-popmini.html#.UVQo5Bcqzj4
but i read in the comments that i can use the zip only with stock recovery.. and i have CWM recovery.
i tried to get back to stock recovery, but failed.
anyway to root with CWM?
thanks
Here's another way to root your phone. First,download the latest version of superuser in a flashable zip(google 'superuser downloads'). Then place the zip in your phone's sd card. Go to cwm recovery and select 'install zip from sd card'. Before this you might want to back up your rom,just in case something goes wrong. After that go to choose zip from external sd card and find the zip. Install the zip and when installation finished reboot. Your phone will be rooted after doing this.
