I'm new in all this so I don't have any acknowledge. After 1 year I decided to root it and install something new.
Is there ANY kernel & ROM that will get the maximum potential from ACE S5830 with everything working fine? Or maybe I should ask, which kernel & ROM are the best?
Thank you

Regarding your question of which Rom and kernel is the best, I'd like to draw your attention to THIS post
However, if I had to name my favorite for the SGA, it would be THIS one
Giving answer as an suggestion,
for battery life-stock based
Performance - cm7 based
Both roms will be super stable and working 100% without bugs as they have base of officially supported GB.
please help me
I'm new in all of this and I don't know what do to next, I have samsung galaxy ace S5830 and I tried to do something new but I failed now i can't do anything with him I can only access recovery and that's it, I tried this http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1537913 but didn't work

It is just name of the ROM, and the developer writes you clearly in the first blue field, in the first text line:
Android Base CM10.1.3. RC1 JellyBean
JellyBean is not ICS (ICS is 4.0.x) so you need Gapps for CM10.1x / Android 4.2.x
CyanogenMod 9 is based on ICS

This looks like a great ROM and i would like to do a one time flash using Odin
Are there any install methods using Odin. I see there is a full download on the page but it appears to be for a I9003. Have searched all over and not seen anything as yet

This isn't meant to be flashed via Odin.
Download the rom + addons + gapps + CM9 (you don't need CM9 gapps). You can download the rom + addons from here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2075058
1.) Backup everything you need to- call logs, SMS, bookmarks, etc with Titanium or other methods of your choice
2.) Reboot into recovery. Perform the three wipe combo (data, cache, Dalvik)
3.) Flash CM9. You'll probably have to flash it twice- once for the kernel, another time for the rom. Let it boot.
4.) Once CM9 has booted, check that you still have reception.
5.) Reboot into recovery again and do the wipe combo. This time choose to flash the base rom. You'll need to flash it three times- once due to the incompatible partition (first flash overcomes this), another time for the kernel, a third time for the rom.
6.) Once the base rom's finished flashing, reboot. Check you still have your IMEI- you'll know if you still have reception.
7.) Reboot to recovery, flash addons (flash Addons then Addons_V1)
8.) Reboot
9.) Back to recovery (AGAIN), flash gapps.
Unfortunately a one-time flash with Odin isn't possible. But the endless flashes you have to do for RemICS V6 is well worth it

thx for your reply and apologies for getting back to you late.
If only i could do it the way you suggested but for some reason (me) i have messed the phone so that it now no longer is able to mount the external SDCard so putting the relevent zip files on the ext card is useless because in recovery mode using CWM these files fail to show.
I note that via CWM it shows the card as unmounted. If i try and do a mount it fails.
any ideas?

What about your internal storage?
Sent from my GT-P7510 using Tapatalk HD
Here is where my noob-ness kicks in.
What internal storage is available by default on the Note1? Is it just the internal sdcard?
what puzzled me when I last flashed with odin (repeated it a number of times as I was trying to get the device to recognise ext sd card) to get the current Darky Extreme rom on (which is working fine no problem at all) is that there was still some relic directory structure left over. These were all empty folders visible when navigating within CWM. Didn't matter what type of formatting I did they wouldn't go. To summarise: much confusion and something got twisted.
So questions arising are:
-How to nuke the internal disk/card properly so there are no remnants prior to me doing another darky reinstall?
-Then, how to copy a zip file to internal card but still have it remain after the format and wipes that would precede a zip install?
-How to fix the device to mount the ext sdcard? FYI other sdcards can't be mounted either. I have tried 4 different ones. And here's the kicker-once booted I go to file manager and there I can see and access all the files/folders on the external card!!! So it's definitely a phone problem as opposed to a sdcard problem. Something got flagged along the line.

download temporary cwm and copy it to sd card turn off phone and go to recovery mode by holding volume up +power button and use volume buttons to go up and down there and power button to select and select update zip from sd card and select the zip file you copied in sd card
if you want permanent cwm you must install cocore kernel

You do not need permanent. And CM ROMs are stock recovery flashable, so you do not need it. You can install CM10.1, CM10.2, CM11 that way (and probably some other CM based ROMs) :victory:

You must compile kernel with new CMW to get it I think. We have recovery in the same partition where kernel is.

i decided to switch to paranoid android 3.69 for smoother perfomance but sadly i bricked my device. although i had backed up my rom using cwm recovery on sd card. but the most sad part is that even recovery is not working. it just reboots again and again. someone told me to flash stock firmware via odin as the download mode is working. but i am worried that my data will be lost. can anyone tell me my data will be lost or not????
and if it ll lost than any way to save it or recover it/ ? i had extremely precious data in it. but being careless i didnt backed my personal data in my laptop.. please help me guys.. ready to pay any cost for my data

Flashing stock firmware with Odin will not delete your data from SD card. You will probably need to do factory reset, it will delete your contacts, sms, apps... But stuff from internal and external sd will remain there.
You bricked it because 4.4.2 uses preload partition for a swap, and it is partitioned in different way. And on PA 3.69 is probably different.
Or ROM zip of PA was corrupted.
thankyou and one more question

You can't brick phone with clearing cache. Did you wipe system partition? Try to install same ROM that you had (if you had).
Give us a screenshot of Odin fail. What exactly happen. And what is the full name of md5 that you put in pda of Odin. Try different version of Odin too.

Go back to recovery, and if you have ROMs zip install it again.
Ofcourse you shouldn't wipe system partition, system files are there...
And if you can't install ROM again, what error do you get in Odin?

Well then you did not just wipe system, you installed some GB based ROM over?

And again, if you get FAIL on Odin DO A SCREENSHOT AND POST IT HERE. To see what cause that fail. Left part of this screenshot is a log http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-gkWcapOu2...gingerbread+s5570jpq8+samsung+galaxy+Mini.jpg

And no, you must install Firmware not, not ROM. Because you probably installed JB ROM over GB. That is why you do not have working recovery.

Hey guys I have a i9305 and my carrier is Vodafone (Australia) still hasn't released 4.4 yet.. So I've been on 4.3 for a while now, which is pretty disappointing. My mate was telling me that I could get 4.4 if I had CM, the only bad thing is that I've got no clue how to install.. Well I do but I can't find the right guide.. They either lack in the details/information on the install, there outdated or the videos are poorly made..
Could someone help me out and point in the right direction? Maybe leave a link or a video etc..? I also haven't touched or changed anything in my phone it is completely stock.
Thanks guys!
Thing you need:
1)An unlocked galaxy s3 (The I9305 version comes unlocked so dont worry)
2)A rooted galaxy s3 with CWM
3)CM 11 rom file, and GApps for CM 11
Steps:
1)To root and install CWM, go to youtube and search "how to install cwm on galaxy s3" a video by MrW0lf should come up(Im new in XDA so i cant post links, sorry)
2)Get CM 11 and Gapps (Google it, once again i cant post links sorry)
3)Put both files into internel/external SD card
4)Boot into cwm (power off, then press volume down, power and home key at the same time, once you see samsung galaxy s3 logo, let go)
5)Optional: Do a backup in cwm.(go under backup and restore and click backup)
6)wipe data factory reset, wipe cache and wipe dalvik cache(wipe dalvik cache button is under advance)
7)choose install zip from SD card and go to where ever you put the files
8)Flash CM11 first then the Gapps
Hope this helps:good:
You should not get any problems, but if you do, just reply, i will do my best to help

You can find everything you need to know in that topic. You shouldn't flash a 4.4 rom just for the sake of running 4.4 though. 4.3 stock with AGNi or Boeffla kernel is fine.

Vodafone customers in Australia have been waiting for at least 8+ months now for 4.4, I just want it for it's extra features. And yeh I've searched that thread but it doesn't really tell you step by step on how to do it..
Basically just want to be able to use 4.4 without different kernals etc..? Just CM 11 if that's possible.

Australia isn't the only country that has been waiting, 4.4 for the i9305 isn't out anywhere yet. Just download the things in that topic I linked and make sure the rom zip says i9305 and you should be fine. You have already rooted your phone and put on a custom recovery right?

No, if there were then you could just flash an official 4.4 rom onto your phone. Before you can install CM you need to put a custom recovery on your phone. You can do this either by flashing one using Odin / Heimdall or by rooting your phone and then installing rom manager from the play store and having that install CWM for you. I used the latter method on my phone, it's up to you which one you choose though.
I'll explain the latter method since it's the one I used, you have to understand that doing this can break your phone if you don't follow the steps perfectly though. This guide explains how to root your phone http://www.ibtimes.co.uk/galaxys3-lte-gti9305-root-android43-jellybean-xxeumkc-530002 . After step 11 you have to download this http://download.chainfire.eu/452/SuperSU/UPDATE-SuperSU-v2.02.zip , unzip it, go to the folder called "common", drag the superuser.apk file onto your phone or ext sd card and install it using "my files" (default samsung file browser). After that, run supersu, let it disable knox and then go to the play store, download rom manager, click install clockworkmod and choose the i9305 one.

American GS3s aren't i930Xs, they are only dual core as well.

Thanks but this is where it get's confusing do I have to download a specific version of GApps for the version of CM I'm on etc.. This is why I need links to help me out, I just don't want to do anything wrong just in case my phone get's bricked or something that's even worse..

you wont brick your device if you install the wrong GApps. If you google "GApps" a link to cyanogenmod wiki would come up, it has to links for the GApps for CM 11

So root, CWM and CM and GApps I should be alright? Would I still be on the 4.3 firmware and then I'll just have to update to 4.4 through the menu? Not sure how that part works.. But I'm starting to understand it a tiny bit.
Sucks how the auto installer works for the S3 but not for the S3 LTE..

1. Root your phone
2. Install CWM using Rom Manager
3. Put CM and Google Apps on your sd or ext sd (the .zips, don't unzip them)
4. Follow the instructions in the first post http://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-s3/development-i9305/rom-cyanogenmod-11-0-official-t2524516
To boot into recovery press power + volume up + home. To flash things you have to navigate using the volume buttons to "install zip", press power and then either choose zip from sdcard (internal) or sdcard1 (external) depending on where you put the .zip files. To wipe things just go back to the main page and there is an option that says wipe data / factory reset. I highly recommend that you make a backup of your phone using CWM on your external SD and backup the efs using the guides in this post http://forum.xda-developers.com/gal...warning-guide-backup-restore-imei-nv-t1946915 before flashing CM.
After flashing CM your phone will automatically be on 4.4.

Too easy mate, would you recommend nightly or a stable version of CM? And also once everythings done can I remove the CM, GApps, CWM files from my sd card? Or do they have to stay in there, because I'm thinking they would.. Cheers.

The stable version is really old so just read through the last pages of that topic I linked and see what people say is a good nightly. You can remove everything except the CWM backup. Although, it is good to leave at least one custom rom on your sd card in case your phone soft bricks while you are out somewhere. Remember to back up your contacts and text messages before wiping your data as well, SMS Backup and Restore is good for the texts and you can just copy your contacts to your sim card. Also, if there are any apps you don't want to lose then make sure to back them up before wiping your data.

If you want fast and stable custom rom, then try this: New build of CM10.2 in [Team Canjica] CyanogenMod 10.2 thread.

The phone is too old to stay many developers (not much left) :crying:
Here is CWM: update.zip
If you need kernel, then after flash this: [Kernel][3.0.101] MK kernel r6
I think these files are only going on I9070 phone. I'm not sure that will be fine on i9070p.
If I'm wrong, someone correct me.

Oh yeah great suggestion
Tomorrow i prepare ODIN and flash the latest official rom. After that from stock recovery i thinks i can flash the root.zip for root access....... using flashify for installing recovery and after that finally installed this 10.2 and after that install the kernel here.
I thinks it's not the best solution...... but it's but it's better than nothing I need only to use this i9070 only for emergency or backup smartphone

This is the right order for me after Odin;
in recovery: wipe, flash update.zip, flash mkkernel zip, flash root.zip and then custom rom + gapps.
I don't flash kernel on custom rom. You know that you need it or not. I think that's unnecessary. I would rather flashing kernel before flashing custom rom.
