Galaxy Ace ROMS

I've Samsung Galaxy Ace......running on Android 2.3.4.
and I'm wanting to update it to Android 4.0.4.
I beg all the developers to reply to this thread as soon as possible......
Please suggest me the right ROM for better battery performance and ICS looks......Thanks in Advance!!

First of all this isnt the right placeto post this. Go and post it in ace forums. That is all i have to say
Sent from Hell!!

1.) there will never be an Official update to 404 or 411
2.) unofficial CM9 and CM10 are on its way, but are still extremely unstable and/or buggy. so if you NEED (and i mean really need, not playing around) your phone i do not recommend those to you. if you dont really need your phone (business, etc) and want to have the latest 411 rom, you are free to try them, but beware of some bugs (cam/video, video/youtube, sometimes random reboots and no mobile internet,.....)

Go to SGA Android Development section and look for it.There are a lot of roms which are ICS themed...
Insert witty sentence here

for now its better if you stick to cm7 based roms... these are stable and almost bug free.. however if you choose cm9 or cm10 you'll have to face daily troubles.. i've tried almost 10 cm9/cm10 based roms but switched back to cm7 as cm9/cm10 are very buggy + unstable !!
press thanks if i helped !!!

Keep calm and wait because our fellow developers are working for us totally free spending their spare time. Not even Samsung, that we've paied, is working to bring us a brand new version of Android. I hope like you to run a CM 9/10/whatever fully working rom as soon as possible but annoying them will not make things going faster.

First... Bear in mind that THERE IS NO SUCH THING AS BEST ROM, KERNEL, etc. But I understood what you expect. Here are some :
The Myth 2 - Go Green. ( you can flash BE kernel ).
Xperiatised v13 .
SGS II v10.1 JB.
Imaginary ICS final.

He did not ask for THE BEST ROM, L2READ.
He just wants a stable rom to use, since everyone is releasing roms like headless chickens and this is a mess, no one knows what to use...

Sorry PulseDroid That was My Mistake not Him..first i wrote without JB but now 1 hour ago i change my thread task. then change it to [JB].

Oh okay. Try Cyanogen Mod 10.1 PRO from OldDroid. It's got some bugs (Like pinch to zoom), but super fast and stable.
I am also busy with a new build so you could wait for that too

Sorry I know u ask for JB, but have you tried Democrazy CM7 ? Is pretty good.
Now I throw a question? Why would you use CM10 that is a lot heavier than CM7 which doesnt let much space to install things in it?
What is the point of having latest but super limited phone?
Is there something that I am missing?

in CM10.1 i found huge battery draining.and none of good script to increase internal memory.
thats why i m using this Rom.
But i m eagerly waiting For full Bug free JB Rom.

Best Way To Upgrade S5830 to JellyBean? Advice Needed!

I have a newbie friend with a GT-S5830 Galaxy Ace on stock 2.3.5. I want to upgrade her to the newest ROM available but I know that her phone is old and I don't want to put a 4.2.2 ROM on it that will make it slow/unusable.
Can someone here please advise the best combination of ROM, tweaks/mods that will give her the latest software but also keep her phone speedy and responsive? Nothing too crazy please- she is not at all tech-savvy, and she will only change her software this one time.
She does not use her phone for music. Just surfing the web, apps like Whatsapp, Maps/Navigation, browser (Chrome or will it be too slow?), etc...

Chrome won't work

Hi,
First of all, Chrome won't work on our Galaxy Ace, as it's a arm v6 device (which is not supported by google). Then for the ROM issue, I recommend you to install the Jelly Bean ROM from Marcin (maclaw). It's speedy, responsive and it supports overclocking if you install an app for it (I have it on my phone, has been great so far). Games work as fast as on the stock ROM. For the browser, I recommend you to use the stock Jelly Bean one or Opera browser.
Any further questions? Just ask. :good:
Hit thanks if I helped you.

Hi- a couple concerns. This is for a girl who is visiting from Australia who is not tech-savvy at all. Once I upgrade her phone, she will have no idea how to do it again. So it is extremely important that it be hassle-free and maintenance-free.
Maclaw has several ROMS: CyanogenMod 10.1 and AOSP. Which one are you referring to? I was reading that the AOSP one was slow- is that true? And what do you mean by "supports overclocking"? Do I have to install a new kernel or mod to set this up? Won't overclocking kill the battery?
So what exactly is the best combination of ROM/tweaks/mods that you suggest? Can you provide links as well?
Thanks again!

You just have to root the phone first, and then flash the ROM via cwm (the kernel is installed with the ROM). About what version to use, I'm using CM10.1 20130513 for three days now and it has been pretty fast for me. I always tend to use CM ROMS, as they're usually faster than the AOSP roms on the ACE (they're optimised for the phone, unlike the AOSP ROMS). Overclocking is not necessary, but it's useful if you're playing games.
So my hint it, just install the ROM i've mentioned without tweaks/mods. If anyone here knows some useful mods, please add them.
Site to get the rom: maclaw.pl/downloads/ (It's the top one).

Its simplicity is beautiful :good:

Discussion Tread for Cyanogenmod 11 (Android 4.4.x KitKat)/ Cyanogenmod 10.2(jb)

Hello everyone, Like everyones know Galaxy mini (s5570) received kitkat/Jelly Bean(cyanogenmod 11/10.2[unofficial]) , since samsung stopped supporting this device devs've started a hard work to update this device.
All AndroidArmv6 Team specially @erikcas , @yajnab , @psyke83 (remember if i forget you and sorry)
and at the moment we're getting stable rom of kitkat and already stable jellybean
Kitkat 4.4.x:
Whats Working ??
everything
what is wrong on this rom ?
batery drains too faster this problems contains in many others kk ROMs including devices . ask google to fix .. xd
Jelly Bean 4.3.x:
Whats working ??
everything
Whats wrong on this rom ?
only small things
the rom was in alpha stage, but already is stable, some people using it daily.
At the moment Jelly beam 4.3 was a amazing rom for daily, lastest's releases from jenkins are incredible.
where i can find more info ?
- you can search for yajnab Tread in Original development section.
Where i can download the rom ?
- look for Jenkins.androidarmv6.org/view/Android/Builds (download only "TASS" builds)
you can look too for Review.androidarmv6.org (see it for reviews of fixed etc)
Where can i find Gapps ?
- i think no was a full package for Gapps (no much space left in the system)
Whats never going to be fixed ?
- google now voice search (dont wait for it, never going to be fixed, why ? device its armv6 google now voice search works only in armv7 .) and others few things
batery- KitKat really takes so much batery!
do thanks for devs of armv6 Team.
if possible donate or pay a drink for their
if you have anything that can help with the development post here. (fixes solutions etc)
i stopped testing with this Device since i buyed a Lg optimus L5(E612)
but i'm here you can use my PM to help (question possible solutions littles things too)
and sorry for my slower updates, its why i'm not at home theses days and i have only 5% of free time to check the forum.
Hot News!!! :
all changes are going to be merged so if any build have a old bug dont worry . only report .
psyke83 said:
Please folks, always take the time to upload logs. You appear to have no active developer who owns a Mini at this moment, so we (other androidarmv6 developers) rely exclusively on users to assist in fixing bugs specific to your device.

on general kitkat just need minimum 512MB RAM right?? for JB need 1GB ram ??
sorry for my english

Guys,I dont want to destroy your hope but, I have 4.4 on my XT and RAM manager is still pretty same as it was on CM10.2 ..still 300mb +- RAM in use.
Maybe is minimum requirement 512MB but mini have only 279MB.

384MB* About 105MB of it is system reserved, which is not accounted by the requirements.

Why are we worried? JB needs 1gb and it ran on Mini. KK needs half of it, it should run just fine.

android 4.4 was made by google optimized to take less ram memory.
will work better than cm10-10.1-10.2 .
galaxy mini no have a totally hardware support but no have problem try right ?

As my Gio just died, I'm back to reading these forums for the sake of keeping my brother's Mini decent now, haha.
Speaking of which, yeah, I'm curious how CM11 will run, seeing how anything up to CM10 runs smoothly (CM10.1 not so much, CM10.2 horribly).
We'll get a surprise. Two possibilities is that it's either going to run so horribly that we'll not even consider using it, or it'll be as nice and smooth as CM9 is if not better (Although I wouldn't count on that).

cyanogenmod 11 promisses , why kitkat was optimized low memory and more other optimizations.
lastest release of cm 10.1 was better than cyanogenmod 10 .
kitkat will run great on mini. i'm 100% of this

Cheer up, Jenkins seems to be able to build again.

[Q] fastest rom?

Hey, I have Galaxy Ace GT-S5830 and tried a lof of roms what was suspose to give "best performance".
I'm looking for ROM without any unnecessary widgets such like weather or other. I wanna basic ROM with excelent performance so I could use smoothly SwiftKey 4, facebook messenger and play music. So far CM 7.1 touchviz v5 was great but something happend and it just slowed down.
Do you know any ROM what can meet my expectations?
Please answer.
I had such as:
- Galaxy S2 ROM
- CM 10.1/7.1/9.2
- JB 4.2
- Apocalypse
- ICE Cream
- KitKat
- Pacman
and few others which I can't remember.

You can try SpaceCaker's AOSP 2.3.7. Very fast but data and mass storage connection to PC not working. Give it a try though

The fastest roms for ace are on GB base. Cm9 & 10 are much slower. Maybe you want to try out The Ultimatum from The A Factor. Great rom and great performance (CM7).

My bad, It wasn't KitKat, just mistaken it with PacMan and wrote it down with others, actually I'm on CM 7.2 Blackhawk Kernel as you suggested, works fine as far I can see but probably will change it in few days, don't know why CM's slow down after few days, maybe there's a solution to keep them in good condition with CWM?

Sent from my GT-S5830 using xda app-developers app

In my opinion, stock GB ROMs are the fastest. CM7.2 is pretty fast as well. Any GB ROM with the right kernel should do
Also, please refrain from making such theads. While it may be a bit different, this is essentially a "Best rom" thread, which are against the rules.
