[Q] galaxy ace gts5830l

i bougth this galaxy ace s5830l (carrier :claro -puerto rico) and im lil confusse is the s5830l different to the s5830 or are in fact the same one ?

I had a galaxy L, the only change is that the L is the american model, appart form that, there's no change at all , the only thing it's that we can't flash european ROMs (KPH,KPN, etc) The only ROMs we can flash are these:
2.3.4 8 (Vivo) Comes from brasil, the only change is that your phone model will change from L to B (I'm using this, works pretty fine!, if you flash it, dont put the CSC file)

and this one: (I haven't used it and don't know nothing about it, but I've read it works fine too)
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1206112
hope I answered your question! if I did, please press the ''THANKS'' buttom!

Uhmm good to know. So I suppose it is not recommendable to flash any of those ROM found here? Too bad, cause I really wanted to have a shot at a couple of them.

If only u can unlock ur fone.

You can flash any 5830 ROM. The only difference is the hspa frequencies so you have to use a south American modem.

Can I flash a different region firmware on my international note?

I have a galaxy note with italian baseband. My question is can I flash it with another region's firmware (asian firmware)?

Yes you can!

Yes.You can always flash any region firmwares on your phone.But the firmware should belong to your phone model.i.e N-7000 firmwares on N-7000,and I-917 firmwares on I-917.Which means firmwares are devices specific and not region specific
If you cant understand any of the above,the exact answer for your question is yes you can

would this affect my warranty? & flash count? and another question could i directly flash with an older firmware, im currently on 2.3.6 i was wondering if i could flash 2.3.5?

1.It wont affect warrant as long as you are in stock firmware.But if you have a network locked device I'm not sure because I have no network locked device in my region.If you have international unlocked note,you are 100% covered by warranty as long as its stock
2.Stock roms dont increase counter.Only custom roms do
3.You can flash any GB rom when you are in GB(to make it simple IMO)

Does this also apply to other devices?
That it is possible to use different firmwares.
(in this particular case LG optimus black p970)

Yup

Yes you can. You can us Odin for PC to do it. Do some searching on the n7000 forums and you will find all the necessary files and flashing tools.
I recommend checking out this excellent thread by Dr. Ketan http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1424997
It explains everything in detail so you should be good to go if you read through it properly.
Hope this helped and good luck!

What does PDA, CSC mean? which firmware to choose

Hi all,
I have just bought me a galaxy note with 2.3.6 firmware,
And i wonder what does the PDA and CSC mean in the firmware upgrade to ICS?
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1424997
I don't really understand which firmware to choose...
I want to choose 4.0.4 but dont know which one.
I am currently using :
model number GT-N7000
android version: 2.3.6-mobile-star
baseband version: N7000XXLPT
Kernel: 2.6.35.7-N7000XXLA4CL886827
Build: GINGERBREAD.XXLA6
What is my PDA?
What is my CSC?
What is PAD?
What is CSC?
Which firmware can i choose?
What is the difference between all the firmwares?
Thanks in advance

PDA represent your build version
e.g your current build is Build: GINGERBREAD.XXLA6, then PDA version of your ROM is XXLA6
again XX represend for countries, XX means it is for europian country
If suppose your build info contain DDLPA, then DD represens for India and PDA version is LPA, means that ROM is for India
Same way CSC is sales code., you can check your ROM CSC by dialling *#1234#
again first two digits represents country and last three represents release time.
But as such there is no restriction to use any ROM for any country if your device is unlocked(carrier restriction free)
Latest ICS is LRK for germany, you can use that too.

I see

Thanks for the reply dr.ketan now i understand something!
Just to make the picture complete:
when i dial *#1234# i get:
PHONE: N7000XXLPT - what that means?
CSC: N7000EULA1 - what that means?
I understand that because my phone uses PDA with XX i can use any EuropeanROM ?
Thanks a lot!

backup your efs first http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1606012
you need root for that you can get that by following dr ketans guide in sticky section developement.

you can update to any rom any time, just follow dr ketans thread and follow pc odin route
Updating throught Kies/ota is tricky, you need pcode sometimes of the country rom you want to go to, no root, and csc of that countries rom, and a whole stock rom installed for that csc. Best to just always follow pc odin route lol
also read stickies and threads fully cause a lot messed up by not doing that. One tip on ics do not wipe/factory reset
happy reading and searching

Find rooting guide from my signature n get cf rot kernel
Ps: cf root kernwl for lrk not available, use lrg instead of that.

CWM and battery
I have rooted the N7000XXLRK successfully.
You mean that i can not install CWM application on that firmware?
So how do i backup the whole phone without CWM?
And another question:
i want to see the battery percentage on the upper bar and not only the battery icon indication, how do i do that? is that possible?
Thanks,

best, not to use cwm on a kernel that can trigger the emmc brickbug, best to use kernel like speedmod k3-11 or likewise which has the trigger for emmc brickbug disabled when doing anything in cwm, or in ics.
Dont wipe, factory reset, change csc, or delete large files on a stock ics kernel
to eliminate these issues read threads/first posts of kernel threads btw.
tip: use kernels based on tw, or stock for stock ics, kernels based on cm9 or other are not for stock..
tip2: when nandroid backup, and wanting to recover that, you need same kernel installed as when backup was made. So use a safe kernel
tip3 when recovering apps and data on different roms, issues can arise due to different database structures, which is why its not really supported on i.e. cm9
tip 4 Some roms are wipe some are not. when going to and from gb and ics stuff could linger, which could cause softbricks. There are clean ways to go to and from, enought threads on that's but always do it on safe kernel whatever wipe action

Download ur stock rom and extract the cache. img file from it. install this cache. img using pc odin selected in the csc tab

if you made efs backup with working ota, restore it, if you didnt, check if:
no custom parts installed (kernel)
Or parts that didnt come with same stock rom version (e. g. if you changed modem)
Or if your pcode is different.
pcodin is faster lol

Thanks for the explanation, but what do the letters PDA actually stand for?
(And please don't say "Personal Digital Assistant," because that's all I can find and I've been searching all day.) :fingers-crossed:
I'm sure it must mean something else when it is being used in a discussion of Android mobile phone software.
Does anyone know what "PDA" actually stands for, what are the actual words represented by that abbreviation?
Thanks in advance for your help.

CSC and Google Play App
I've tried a lot of ROMs. Some ROM makes impossible to install applis from Google Play Store. For example when using the Sweet V5 ROM, I cannot get Firefox nor Chrome from the market. It says my Galaxy Note is incompatible. Do you have any idea of CSC management ?

How to know which firmware to download

So I have GT-N7000, it's a 2.3.6 currently, and I want to update it to ICS, my baseband is (according to my About phone in Settings):
Model number: GT-N7000
Android-Version: 2.3.6
Baseband-version: N7000XXLB2
Kernel-version: [email protected]#2
Is there a way to update it to ICS (I'm not sure which one to downoad from sammobile) but not bricking or damaging it?
Thanks a lot you guys!

Flash any ics stock rom from samfirmware..
I'd you want ics for your country there's a option in samfirnware where you can enter the detaiks of your phone and samfirware will show your update

It has a brand, os, model and country selection, but I'm not sure which country this came from, so basically all I know is baseband number, so I was wondering is there any way to depict native origin of off that?
But, you say that any ICS firmware from sammobile firmware downloads section for GT-N7000 is good to install?
Thanks buddy !

Yes any icsvis fine..but be sure it's for gt n7000 and not the american note
---------- Post added at 04:54 PM ---------- Previous post was at 04:52 PM ----------
Ics version

No need to downlad firmware manually, just connect ur device to kies,it will detect and download it automatically for u.at least it will tell u the version u will need to download
↖(^▽^)↗ Sent from Rego Galaxy Note ↖(^▽^)↗

root first and backup efs before doing anything
then check csc and try to stick with it. If you dont care then you will need efs backup in case things like pcode and imei break. You need that see toolbox thread by dr ketan how to
Sent from my GT-N7000 using Tapatalk 2

Depends on if you want a tuned ROM and/or kernel, or if you want a full stock ROM.
For full stock, update through Kies.
For custom tuned ROM, check out the Dev section of XDA for the Note.

CsprDroid, pen down the IMEI of your device first. You can get your IMEI by dialling (typing) *#06# in the keypad.
After that, use your IMEI to avail your CSC by dialling *#272*IMEI#. The CSC will be a set of three alphabets in block letters.
Thus, you can you the CSC as the prime reference to avail the appropriate stock firmware for your country/region from SamFirmware.

Did your friend tell you wether he tried to install a Custom Rom?
You should try to "restore" the Note with a Stock Rom installed with Odin.
I always use an old Gingerbread Rom with three parts. But you can download the right one for your country from sammobile.com. That's easy.
In the sticky threads here (Dr. Ketan's are very good) there are descriptions how to work with the Odin PC version.

I will not check other sites for firmware when everything is here - I'm lazy and I know I can trust them here in XDA.
See here for possible versions.
You should choose a version for the provider your friend uses.
