It's actually fairly simple. Just gotta read carefully and not go in mindlessly.

hello everybody...I want to know what is the good things on Samsung i9000 Galaxy S and what is the bad things on the same phone???? Thank's anyway.Cheers Alek
Hello I saw the Samsung Galaxy Ace portal that is s2 keyboard and thought it could be ported to Galaxy Mini. Willing to wait all possible solutions. The point is to work as many of the original OS 2.3.6 for my system, and not to brick my phone.
Sorry for my bad English!!
Hi!
I'm new on this forum and first of all, I'm sorry if this was posted on the wrong sub-forum, but I tried not to do it.
I have a Portuguese version of the basic Galaxy Ace GT-S5830 with 800MHz processor, black color. The thing is I want to turn it into Galaxy Ace La Fleur edition (with the flowers design in the case and pre-themed ROM) for my girlfriend. She saw it on the internet and loved it, but I cannot buy one of these here in Portugal as it's only available for Romania or Russia, I think.
The whole case is already swapped into La Fleur design, so, from the outside it is almost an authentic Ace La Fleur edition.
Now I wanted to change the original ROM of this basic Ace to La Fleur ROM, but I don't know how and where to find that ROM because I don't even know if Ace La Fleur is an 5830A, B, C, P... whatever.
Can you help me figure out what ROM version should I download and install to have official La Fleur edition ROM on my galaxy?
other thing: Can I install an S5830i (833MHz) ROM version on my S5830 (800MHz)? As I don't know if Ace La Fleur is 800MHz or 833MHz, but I think I saw on the internet it can be both versions.
Many thanks! Hope you can help me sort it out.

I don't know whether the La Fleur edition is made for which version... Or I think you can search for the ROM on sammobile.com.
Why not try custom ROM and you can have some awesome full of customization's?
But I do know that YOU CAN'T FLASH 5830i ROM to 5830 or 5830 ROM to 5830i. WHICH WILL RESULT IN BRICK. Because both uses different hardware. 5830 uses Qualcomm processor and Adreno GPU, while 5830i uses Broadcom processor and GPU (same as the Galaxy Y).
Correct me if I'm wrong: Samsung I9305 Galaxy S III also known as Samsung GALAXY S III LTE is similar to galaxy POP with only two differences:
1. the internal memory of POP is only 8GB compared to 16GB of I9305.
2. The screen size of POP is a little smaller.
Being that said, can I use the root methods of I9305 to root POP?

hello everyone
i like to start of with sayin hello to everyone and appreciate all the help i receive.
i have a Samsung galaxy s3 mini for 2yr and im in uk and i been seeing other phones running newer firmwares like lollipop and it feels and looks nice and would like it on mine. My s3 mini is currently running android version 4.1.2 and its been like that since new and doubt it get any updates now,
can i update this to a newer firmware please and a step by step process thanks as ok ish with phones know basic stuff but not a genius.
once again thank you all
yes you can. the phone will need to be rooted, custom recovery installed & a couple of other tools on pc,ie odin. there are many great guides & tutorials in these forums, so have a look around, read a little learn a lot, like we all did. decide on which rom works the best for you and go with that one(that will be the best rom),dont ask!!!!!. follow all instructions carefully & most of all...enjoy the ride... if you have any difficulty then just ask
Hello thank you.
I'm typing this from my s3 mini. It has been rooted with kingroot the rooting is ok now needed to allow permission.
So it's ok for a Uk Samsung galaxy s3 mini be updated to later firmware. I read couple guides on here with the cynam rom.
Has is got to be done by odin?.
I also read that can be done with rom manager app is this true?.
What is the latest and stable firmware for samsung galaxy s3 mini GT- i8190n?
Also erm What's a kernel and has that got to be done?
On the downloads page I choose my model and cyamogen then is it recovery or odin I download?
Thank you to everyone
