Can somebody tell me when can we Galaxy Ace S5830 users get the taste of Firefos OS on our phones?
Also is it possible in any way?

Development is going on for now...But it's epected to get an official update...But for root users some or the other dev of s2 community has to create a rooted and flashable version of it...The same thing has been done for galaxy tab 2 p3110 ...It's orignal ubuntu update has been released but with bugs...but the dev's and improved the orignal update by ubuntu and imprpoved it for better experience..After nexus 4 , according to me s2 is the most customizable device..

Firefox OS for our ace that would be awesome:good:.

sure would be AWESOME!!! if someone is trying to port it, please inform us all here... please

Firefox OS Simulator 4.0
If somebody can try FFOS, can use addon Firefox OS Simulator 4.0 for Firefox (browser) on PC:

I could give it a try, but since i am not an Android ROM developer, kernel developer neither, i don't think i would succeed.

[Q] Is firefox compatible with your devices?

I recently went through post where it was mentioned that mozilla released firefox for armv6 devices(google it, its written everywhere) on monday and supported phones had galaxy ace in it but on playstore my galaxy acei is shown incompatible. Can you guys confirm if its working for you?
Sent from my GT-S5830i using xda premium
It is, but that doesn't mean it is up on the PlayStore yet, give the Developers some time.
Here, tested and working on my Ace

Super noob question xD
It´s almost a impossible thing.
It anyone knew it would have been done and posted in the development section and you would not have to ask this question. Sorry that's impossible, just buy an S3 if you really like its interface, that's much easier.

Well the ui is portable... but you CANT use the whole ROM, as it is. I think there is a theme somewhere in apps and theme section. But that theme is for a specific ROM.

If you like the UI you can get CM10 and use Tantrum's aroma gapps where you can flash the SG3 launcher

You are really something
It's been a while since I saw a post like yours. You can't just ask for something like that, not even if you ask politely. It is very hard to do what you asked, it has been discussed before. So, before opening a new topic, think a little and read a LOT, it will bring good to all of us. Live long and prosper.
a lot of developers are working on porting 3.0 kernel to ace and gio
till now most havent booted
these kernels would be released when they are near any beta or working properly
just wait
patience is all we need

Probably you could have posted this in the general thread. Original android development section isn't the right place.

You need to compile all the sources and repair all the errors, and then, maybe your kernel will boot
And then you will have a lot of work

"masked as" implies it's fake
This thread should go in general
the point is we'll never get 3.0.x kernel if FSR driver cannot be fixed

thx for good news
we can implement fsr directly into kernel if we want to
fsr.ko isnt needed, it can be booted even without it
(As a small reference: it will be one of the further work of MS Team )

(Q)Have you installed bbm for android on our mini?

Please share if you have installed bbm on our mini with screenshot here!!
I try on cm 10.1, and they aren't works.

Sent from my GT-S5570 using xda premium
i have force close to.... yes maybe must ARMv7 processor to run bbm.. my friend have Galaxy Wonder on Jelly Bean Rom.. it run on Wonder
well, no problem :fingers-crossed:
official PATH also cannot be used from Galaxy Mini, but, with some minor "porting", VOILA !! my mini can use path.
i will look for a porting version of BBM, or i will porting it in myself
just wait and see (if anyone people can port this) :fingers-crossed:

It doen't work on my Mini2 either. It's running on CM10.1 (Android 4.2.2) so it has ARM v7. Any knows why or how it could be fixed or will be available for this in the near future?
Well, It the app is ported, it would be great. I though that It only needed android 4.0+ but it's not that.
my question is: how hard would it be to port it?

BBM (BlackBerry Messenger) Works Fine on Galaxy Mini S5570
It's nearly frustrated about getting BBM (BlackBerry Messenger) works on Galaxy Mini (S5570), and thinking of impossibility. But finally from now on the hope become reality. The Messenger has tested works fine on Galaxy Mini GingerBread 2.3.6 and Jelly Bean 4.2.2. You can check here -> masova30.wordpress.com - The post was Indonesian but available translate for many languages. The file was 11 MB so can't attached here. The Screen Shots attached.
Probably You can test it on another devices.
Good Luck
