just for other people, DON'T USE ROM MANAGER to our Ace, because too many issues that it will brick our device, so be careful, and from other forum, also don't use Font Changer coz that can brick too

my computer connect to phone, but hold power+vol down+home button not react

You must send it to Samsung Assistance. ROM MANAGER HARD BRICKS GALAXY ACE. No other solutions, sorry man.

1. prepare odin for flashing
2. connect your usb cable
3. insert the battery into your phone while pressing power + home + vol down
4. itll get into download mode
5. click start...
6. wait.............
7. enjoy
i suggest you flash mush69 rom
i used these settings in odin while my phine was hard bricked while flashing mush69
the .ops file as ops
apboot file as boot
modem file for phone
code file for pda
and csc file for csc
dont forget to hit the thanks button

Same here ...
It happened the same to me like 4 month ago... the phone didnt respond at all, rom manager fried my motherboard, so i send it to ASC but i told them that the phone just one day it tuned off and and never work again, after wait for 1 week they change it to me for a new one for free xD
Unfortunately if rom manager fried your motherboard too... it's the only solution.

this is what u get for not reading posts before doing somehing as dangerous as using rom manager anyway send it to service center tell them Kies crashed while updating XD

People could not border to read and understand. End up brick their phone. Last thing, could not see thanks button and hit it.

But when that happends kies gives u a code, then u connect it again and u can do an emergency rescue or something like that :S

Then let's consider power failure and PC turn-off

Like someone already said just send it to samsung service and with an inocent face say "I dont know what happened, it just never turned back on " and they cant find out the real reason it bricked so they will fix it

Reboot Loop

Heys guys ive got a problem with my S5830i, i wanted to flash AceCream v1 for the second time but at some point i failed, (i flashed it succesfully first time)
now my phone is Rebooting everytime and black brick appears on the screen covering 4/5 of the Galaxy ace logo

I can't go to recovery mode, and dunno what Download mode is
is it battery with loading circle on it?

download mode: vol up + vol down + power button
recovery mode: vol up + power + menu.
in order to connect your phone and use odin you should go to download mode.

Yes i can, and it didnt reboot, so it means my phone isn't hard bricked

yes maybe just a soft one. You do know how to use Odin, right? You can flash a stock firmware, there's one thread who has stock firmware just follow the instructions from there. try this. Hope you fix your ace in no time :good:

Try installing the Samsung drivers yourself, I think there is one in Sammobile.com. Not sure though, or just try visiting samsung's website and download the drivers.

Just Google for Samsung mobile usb driver, i have just downloaded it few hours ago.

[Q] HELP! Phone stuck in unuseable state

Hi
I've been having problems with the HOME button on my phone. I've been running PA2.51 on it so thought it was probably the ROM. I went to flash the newer 2.99 ROM from here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2115167
After I followed the instructions I rebooted the phone and now I'm stuck with loads of FC! I can't even reboot into recovery or download mode because the stupid HOME button doesn't work.
I don't know what to do??
Can anyone help or advise please? I'd want to get my files off the thing if I can't save it sigh

just check out the "FAQ and troubleshooting" in post #3 of the rom.....

I did but I can't even get into recovery or download mode because of my dodgy HOME key. Is there no other way to force my phone into recovery by plugging it into the computer???

okie.... do this IF USB DEBUGGING WAS ENABLED
> connect ur phone to pc using usb..
> now run CMD on pc...
> now type "adb reboot recovery"....
> wait for it to work...
now u should be in recovery

Thanks will try and give that a go. If this fails I'll have to get this sorted via insurance
EDIT: GAH! It can't find the device. Looks like I'm out of luck?

if that also dosent work...
then if u know how to use PC odin.. u can pull ur battery out then reinsert it....
then hold down the VOLUME DOWN button and press the POWER BUTTON for 2 sec. and then release it ... but keep holding down the VOLUME DOWN button...
now u should be in download mode in which u can flash any other rom using PC odin..

gonna give download option a go. Thanks

Well that's rubbish I flashed the stock 4.0.4 ROM and it's stuck on the Samsung logo now. Really not my day today...

i tried with normal combination vol up + vol down + home + power for recovery and vol down + home + power for download
neither works

Not sure but i think you bricked your device... Sorry i cant help you

Pres " Home + Power " and keep pressing both for a few seconds untill you you enter Recovery Mode ,
Or " Vol up + Home + Power " to enter download Mode ..
if both ways did not work .. so you have to go to Custom Cares.
good luck.

i just hope that they can fix it

When you put your phone on charger, is the battery icon appears or not?
If it doesn't appear, you don't have a chance of recovery it.

Try buying USB jig and flash stock via Odin. That's how I unbricked my Mini 2

Hard brick?
If so, sending it to a Samsung Center is your best bet.

+1 it's hard bricked

same thing happen to me
I experience that too last 6months to be exact, as long as you can access download mode and it is readable by your laptop/computer you can fix it, download any ONE PACKAGE stock room in firmware.com then flash it via Odin after that process finish
go to cwm
just power button + home button
then reset and wipe
please feedback as soon as you do my tips thanks!
goodluck! :good::good:

Blank Screen
I installed the wrong cwm on mine and when I tried to boot into recovery all I got was a blank screen, so I waited for a bit, then pulled the battery, turned phone on and nothing but a blank screen, tried getting into DL mode and nothing, but when I plug it into the PC, it wants to recognize as a modem instead. I think its toast, I even made a jig, tried getting into DL mode and nothing, the phone is on just no screen, it charges the battery when plugged into usb port but nothing on the screen. It had worked until I flashed cwm on it...

go to stock recovery
why don't you just enter into stock recovery and factory reset the phone , you can also flash the stock rom with odin after puting your phone in download mode . to go to recovery vol+ and vol- and power on the phone at te same time

Didn't you read? He has neither download nor recovery mode.
