I'm currently running CWM Recovery 5.0.2.6 on my Galaxy Ace. I've been warned away from using ROM Manager by basically everybody. But I want to install CWM Touch Recovery on my Ace, and ROM Manager seems to be the only way to do that.
First, is CWM Touch Recovery compatible with the Galaxy Ace?
Second, has ROM Manager improved? I bricked an Ace last February trying to flash CWM Recovery (it didn't have the my model listed). Current version is 5.0.0.8. Can I use it to safely flash CWM Touch Recovery (assuming Touch Recovery is compatible with Galaxy Ace?
Third, is there any place I can get CWM Touch Recovery for the Galaxy Ace without using ROM Manager?
Any help would be appreciated. Thanks.

Dude as you have said. You have been warned by everybody for using rom manager. But if you still insist on using it, feel free. Its your choice! I think there is already a cwm touch recovery for ace. Search in ace development section. But I think its buggy and discontinued.

It's a good idea... this section is full of developers, can anyone developers this version for our ace? If you found something around the forum, you should share it here... I'll keep my eyes open... bye.:good:

I'm not disagreeing with you; ask the audience usually works. But everything I'm seeing telling me not to use ROM Manager is almost a year old (fall 2011 or earlier), and this is a very recent version of ROM Manager that recognizes my phone, where all the older versions didn't.
Is there anyone who has used ROM Manager 5.0.0.6 or 5.0.0.8 on their Galaxy Ace? If so, please let me know how it went, good or bad.

Everyone told you not to use Rom manager. But if you still want to use it,go ahead,Use it,brick your device.If you want to mess your phone up,thats fine with us.Just please don't come crying here telling that you messed your phone up by using Rom manager,if you refuse to hear what people say,its your problem.
Rom Manager is a touch and go thingy for SGA,it works sometimes,sometimes doesn't.

There is a CWM touch version for SGA as shadowXd told,its developed by Axel2033.Touch is a bit buggy but i don't know if the project is still going on since Axel2033 is more active on russian forums than xda.

Hey there
I've read this: http://wiki.cyanogenmod.com/wiki/Samsung_Galaxy_Mini:_Full_Update_Guide
i seen "Method via ROM Manager"...
This means that it's possible to install ROM Manager in stock rom without risk?? is now compatible??
As I've read, ROM Manager isn't compatible with our device, and it can brick the device. But I'm kinda noob and can't tell you more details

Seem like cm is now official you can also flash it via rom manager?
But who wants to get the risk.
As long as you also can flash it via cwm, i will always do it that way.
Don't use the rom manager
Don't use the rom manager !!!
It already bricked my once.
it ain't compatible with our mini
just search this forum with the keyword of "bricked by using rom manager" you will get lots of thread after that decission is yours to use rom manager or not
Dont use ROM Manager!!! Dont install CWM with it. It will brick your phone. I bricked it twice!!! Lol.

The T-mobile Dart is a re-branded version of the Samsung Galaxy Mini, which has a working root with superoneclick, and clockworkmod, but the community hasnt offered very much for this phone when it comes to custom ROMs. the galaxy mini roms are not cross compatible but i feel like the could be ported over without to much work put into the mix. I wanted to start this thread to see if i could bring together some of our Dart users to try and create our own little category of roms for this phone. As of right now i know there is a semi-stable version of CM 7.1 for the dart with only a few issues (located here) but thats about it. my hope is that the ICS that is being ported to the mini could be adapted to our dart.
just for reference to install CWM you can visit this page for information on how to do that.
lets make this phone worth its dollar!
It's a beautiful phone. Anyway, who cares.

I have a Samsung Dart that I flashed CM7.2. Here is my info:
MY flashed Dart
Model number: Galaxy Mini (SGH-T499)
Android version: 2.3.7
Mod version: CyanogenMod-7.2.0-RC0-dart-KANG
Build number: GWK74
spawk is working on his ROM for the dart

I went to system/app and noticed alot of apps with .odex
My question: Should I reflash with a Deodexed Rom that I found? (Deodexed_update-cm-7.2.0-RC0-dart-KANG-signed_Signed.zip) Would this make the Dart run better?
If I flash this deodexed rom, would I have to do the whole wipe data/cache devlik cache?
I too have q spare dart I can tinker aroung with just let me know where to start and I'll help out as much as possible

Wow.. Dart is coming back on the scene..
I m having it in a drawer somewhere and as my HTC Aria begins to have random reboots (linked to the heating I guess) I am thinking in a swap.. either if it is not the same kind of device, it may be a good thing to see ICS there.
Fyi I also have a Gtab 10.1 and a Gnote S.. but this is a side note.
While I have some java skills, and know a bit around Android, I could help on that, but I have no ROM development knowledge. If someone wants to involve me, let me know !

CM7.2 works great on the Dart! So much better than the stock ROM

If it's the deodexed version that someone here on XDA (sorry, can't remember who ) deodexed DashBlack's CM7 rom for me, I flashed and it wouldn't boot. By the filename, it looks like that's the one it is.
Yes, you would want to data/cache wipe, wipe dalvik, and then flash, then another data wipe for good measure. But I wouldn't bother, as I already tried all that and it wouldn't get past the small Samsung logo.
DB's CM7 kang is the best thing out for the Dart as of now, but being odex'ed is the only thing about it that bugs me. It drives me nuts that I have my Dart running a really awesome CM7 rom, but can't do all the really cool stuff like transparent status bar or status bar layout mods.
Still, it beats running stock Froyo with TouchWiz any day
Waiting for CM9 from DashBlack now. Hope he will be back soon...
Local links
I would like to flash and upgrade my sgh-t499 but all the links to do so are leading to madteam's website. I have no problem with that except that it won't let me register, and hence won't let me see the links to get the recoveries needed, roms needed to upgrade my phone. A little help would be appreciated.
any updates?
This is one of the latest custom roms for Dart, modded by Daemon, if you'd like to try it

I have been looking around for the files I need for the t499 but I always end up on old posts with broken links.
Could anyone post me the links for CWM 5.0.2.8 (i think its the latest for dart t499)
I also couldn't get the Odin and other files I need to flash CWM.
For rooted SuperOneClick is much easier to find and download.

But why it bricks the sga?
This bug is a long time known... the devs of the app could it fix...
but i think the sga is to old...
If you want to use a customrom... you can use the recoverymode of the sga to install cwm. If you installed cwm you can flash easiely any customrom for your sga
Why do you want a manager , aint that cool...and yeah don't think they want to invest in a phone like this
i think there are a lot of sga-users and the newbes can flash their sga easier with this app...
i used the app for my galaxy 5 and galaxy 3 and everything worked fine
and i can't imagine why it should be so difficault to fix the app for the sga...
Hey there.
I have my galaxy S3 mini GT-I8200N with android 4.2.2 and i wonder if there is update to 4.4 ?
I also installed recovery-clockwork-touch-6.0.2.7-golden.tar but I can't use, when I enter the recovery I enter in the original android recovery, not the clockwork. Sorry my english, can someone help me? :fingers-crossed:
custom recovery possible ?
Hey,
First is your phone rooted?
Otherwise look here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2725346 :good:
I have an other question for someone who knows more about this than I do:
When this phone (Galaxy S3 mini Value Edition i8200) is rooted, are you then able to install a custom recovery or even every custom recovery?
For exampel: twrp 2.7 or cwm 6.0.2.7 or PhilzRecovery or another ? Then you could also make a Nandroid backup.
I've searched for some info about this special Q but I looked at the wrong place I think, cause I didn't find any answer.
I know there is no custom ROM yet to install.
But in the meantime you can use Link2SD to move apps to the sd-card.
Hopefully someone is able to work on a custom ROM.
yes is rooted.

Can you not install it from Google Play? If you can't, then it most probably will not work on your device.
Yes I cannot install it because the current version available in google store isn't supported by my phone, because of the rom I guess.so I was looking for an older version apk compatible with my current rom.

If you are interested in installing the latest version of Instagram, I suggest you upgrade to CM 9 or above. Are you using Ace S5830 or S5830i? Anyway I tried searching for Gingerbread compatible version and found this (haven't personally tried it),
Instagram 1.1.0 apk for Android
Do post the result. Hope I Helped
i tried it and as for other older versions i have tested,it gives me the following message
''error your version of instagram is out of date.please upgrade your app to log in to instagram''
So i guess i have to try a more recently released custom rom.
do you have any suggestions?i have tried a lot of them and the one i have now is the most reliable with no problems,that's why i keep searching for an instagram apk compatible.
My device is Samsung Galaxy Ace GT-S5830 or just Cooper
anyway,thanks.

CWM 5 is more than enough with CM 7, CM 9 and CM 10 roms. CWM 6 should only be used if you want to go for CM 11 (KitKat) roms. But even in CM 11 roms, there is one rom (KitKat for All) that works quite well with CWM 5. So you are good to go with the recovery you have know. Make sure to follow the installation instructions specified in the thread. Good Luck
i've just installed it.everything looks to work fine.

You can use Greenify to hibernate other unnecessary apps that runs in the background. You can save some RAM that way.
