Hi guys.
Been a while since i posted but here is the situation:
My friend has a s5830 and its still on froyo! 2.2.1. Completely stock (not even rooted). She asked me to help as when plugged into kies it says:-
"devices firmware not supported to update via kies"
its shows firmware version kb7 kb1 kb6 (h3G)
Now i know i can flash using odin (know my way around an ace like the back of my hand) but she doesnt want me to do that. All im trying to find out is why Kies says this?
Any ideas?
Thanks in advance!
Is it an open sim galaxy ace because I had the same problem with it
don't blame me it wrote itself

If you mean sim unlocked then yes. She just tried another carrier sim card and it worked.
how did you resolve this?
There isn't a way to solve that issue as far as I no, the open sim mobiles get updated last or rarely updated so I had to update manually through Odin

Haha, I know this, you know this but seeing as she sits next to me at work and that is where i will do it she might just notice! If i had my way it would already be flashed with CM9/10!
Cm7 is better for the ace

Beven using it since it same out so bit bored of it to be honest. But your right its more stable / functional.
There's a new apocalypse rom due to come out with in the next couple of days its already been tested and sounds good so far I'm going to flash it as soon as its out
don't blame me it wrote itself
Screw stock roms. Flash CM 7.2 stable (download from CyanogenMod official site) and you will have GB 2.3.7 with tons of options and features. Everything works in that rom and after flash is fully working, no need to do anything. Better than this? Hope you find a solution. Bye

Thanks for your reply, I know CM is great, I use it on my ace and note. The point of this thread was to find the reason why a friend ace cannot be updated by using Kies......

Second,his phone model is I9070P,but the page where I downloaded the update said that the update is only meant for I9070 model and not for any other,is there any Jellybean update for I9070P?

Good that you didn't proceed and asked. You could have bricked the phone.

Yeah . I almost didin't messed up my friends phone
Do you know when the jb update is coming out for I9070P?
Nobody knows.
The situation is quite deplorable really. Even non NFC model has got the update in only two markets. So it is anyone's guess when your friend's phone will get JB.

Hi
Hopefully someone will be able to help me this. I have just got a Optimus 4x HD and i seem to have a persistent problem of suddenly phone say no sim inserted even when a sim is inserted. Then I restart and sometimes problem is fixed, at other times nothing happens, i check the information under settings and under baseband it says unknown.
The IMEI is also not shown someone please help me!!
I have changed software from ICS to JB then thought it was an issue with JB but problem is with all software :/
I think that your sim has the problem.But before you change sim try to reflash baseband and stock rom via kdz

I would like to know if the problem has been solved and how. I have the same problem with my LGp880. Can't make calls or send sms's. Often I get the message "USIM missing" or other messages like "reorganization of internal processes in progress.try again later".
I have discovered that many other users have the same problem and, weirdly enough, for all of us it started around the same period June 2014.
I have left my phone to LG's technical assitance. Technicians have changed everything possible (new Imei, software update, replacement of pcb-I hope this is the right word in english) but it's still not working. Now they have agreed to substitute it with another model. The same thing happened to many other users of lgp880 that have had the same problem.
The phone has been bought and is used in Italy. Same thing with the other users. So I was wondering if this problem with no apparent solution is located in this specific geographical area. Or if someone outside Italy has found a solution.
Thank you for your reply

In Sweden... searching the net for solutions but have not found anything.
I'm from Portugal and I'm experiencing the same issue... Sometimes with a reboot it recognizes the SIM again, but just for a few minutes..

Tried with Zaiben - and the same issue. Tried to flash back to ICS but it get stucked at about 18% with flashtool.
It´s either corrupt EFS partition or hardwarerelated (I´ve ordered today a new "simcardholder" that Demetris recommended.
Well, lets keep snooping around at google for a another while. Cheers

AFAIK sim card holder has absolutely nothing to do with your IMEI. Try MoKee or ZAIBEN or flash stock JB with KDZ.
Tried Miui and ziben Rom

Sorry man, I solved my baseband problem just changing ROM version (I had same problem months ago with beanstalk, can't remember which ver., but after flashing newer ver. my problem disappeared). Maybe you can try flashing other kernel. :fingers-crossed:

Well, still no luck here. Have not recieved the "simcard-holder" yet - seems like that should be my last resort.
I´m not even able to flash trough LG flashtool - it just fails after certains seconds (about 14-50sec).
Going to flash latest CM11 nightly this evening from clean (everything wiped but CWM-recovery).
For now I´m using my old "one core" Defy.

Still no luck here.... get from Demetris on CM11 official forum that it might work to flash with "newmans flash tool" no luck this far as the tool says that a ebl-file needs to be injected.

I've tried my sim card in my friend's phone, it worked. This problem is happening me again. I've fixed it once, but now i cant and ill be trying to downgrade to 2.3.6 -> 4.0.4 -> 4.3.1. Will this help?
IMEI is okay?
Maybe try flashing upon to 4.3.1 without any sim and after being on the version you want then inserting the SIM ...

Yeahh, i flashed 2.3.6 and it detect my sim card -_-
Yep, it sounds like you lost your IMEI by flashing directly to 4.3.1.
Do as you said: 2.3.6, 4.0.4, 4.3.1 (you don't need to flash anything I think going from ICS to JB) and that should resolve your problem

Good luck and let us know if your sim will be detect when flashing new to 4.3.1 :good::good:
Very strange guys, i flashed cm 10.2 M1 and it detected my sim, then i flashed slim and dirty unicorns and it doesnt detect my sim. I think its something very random thing, or i every time i want my sim to work i have to downgrade 2.3.6 -> 4.0.4 -> 4.3.1
Update: Now im on latest cm and.. my sim works, dont know what happened.

CyanogenMod works reliable with the i9000. IMHO many of other custom roms based on Android 4+ don't describe exactly enough in their OP which ROM should be upgraded from to have bug-free working device.
It is obviously the ultimate key to have them working well. Backup your EFS folder now to avoid future problems with dissapeared IMEI No.

Yes, yes its working without problem till now. I think the first time installing a rom you have to remove the sim card and after setting up the rom you have to turn off and put the sim card or downgrading to 2.3.6 -> 4.0.4 -> 4.3.1.
i am having same problem, but its with my other phone Huawei U8860 Honor,,,,, i did not find any posts about u8860 here in xda.

Not neccesarily. As long as you go GB -> ICS -> JB, and let ICS boot at least once in between, you should be fine.
