Hi guys
My friend has a Galaxy Ace running Froyo 2.2, everything went so OK till he tried to update into Gingerbread 2.3.4 via Odin & cooper
Device boots well and everything is smoothly good, but when he tried to access WiFi, it not works yet!!! The Bluetooth stopped working too
Tried to give him another version of GB 2.3.6 also flashable via Odin, nothing changed!! Tried to flash 4.2.2 CyanogenMod, thinking it's a Kernel issue, nothing changed too still not working
any help?!!

Flash a fresh stock via Odin and then do wipe data/factory reset and wipe cache partition if it doesn't work you could try to flash CF-Root b84 kernel over android gingerbread it contains useful libs and wifi modules
Recently he told me something strange!!!
he flashed CyanogenMod 4.2.2 without being rooted yet!!! only custom recovery was installed.... can it be strange??

...do 3 wipes via CWM 5.0.2.6 FIXED and then use Odin to flash a fresh stock finally do wipe data/factory reset and cache partition. Check out if your wifi works, if not flash ROOT + CWM and finally flash Cf-Root b84. If your wifi still not working, It might be a hardware trouble
Can it really be a hardware fail?? Everything was working PERFECTLY just before update!!

I try to install but don't work... after that i flash it, the phone lock to logo screen "google" and i can't go to CWM i must use odin to reflash. If install rc3.1 it's all ok.
Where is the problem?
Thanks.
Did you try looking at the help page on the thread in the development section? It's right before the post is finished, there will be a link that will lead you there.
Hope that helps, if not I can try to just copy and paste the instructions hahaha

Did you do a full wipe before flashing RC4.1?

yes... i try to flash a miui rom first also.
I try to do a full wipe... i try to install a original rom... but when i flash rc4.1 the phone stuck to logo.
Ensure you have backed up your EFS directory; if you don't know how ask.
To be honest, there appears to be some inconsistency in the reliability of the 4.1 RC release (across handsets); I have had persistent WIFI issues and then when the wifi fix was released I found the phone to just be a little laggy.
My advice if RC 3.1 works well for you is to keep it on there for now and wait for the next release they make.
However, if you still wish to flash it, there is no 100% working way - just keep factory reset, dalvik wipe, cache wipe, reset until it starts working! That's what I did as the original instructions did not work for me.

I agree with you... RC3 was fine for me... fast and all worked... RC4 has some wifi issues... It switch on/off and doesnt stop till i reboot the phone... im thinking about to downgrade to RC3.1 and wait till the next release...

Yes i try it(no backup efs)
If i flash 2 time the rom the phone stuck it and i can't enter in cmw
.. is the only rom that give me this problem... bha...
Hello, have you tried to download the rom again? Maybe it's a bad download..
That's odd, for me i got stats 7 but was because i was flashing the I9000B version and my phone was with the CWM for I9000. Try using odin and flash a sotck rom, after that install the CWM and then the RC4.1.
If anyone want to know the procedure that i do to install the RC4.1 is this:
Starting for CM7 --> flash the ARO 2.3.3 rom to re-write the bootloader (check this option in odin) --> flash the ZTO 2.2 rom to re-partition in original size partitions --> flash the 2.2.1 ARO because it's a nice rom and don't have all the trash that is present in ZTO version --> through kies flahs the ARO 2.3.3 original.
After that the procedure to install the RC4.1 is the standard: flash CWM then install the ROM.
I had problems going from 3.1 to 4.1. Same issue as OP.
Process I followed:
-Flashed CWM through heimdall
-Flashed devil kernel
-Flashed CM7 (had to do this twice in a row)
-Flashed ICSSGS 3.1
-Flashed 4.1 but before I rebooted my phone, I flashed Devil one last time.
Since then, phone has been rocking along just fine!

Yes... three times.
I'm having the same problem here.
I tried the first point on the Common Issues page but I'm still not able to go into CWM!
I flashed the Speemod Kernel using heimdll but I can't go back to CM7. I'm getting a Stat 7 error.
Also tried the Devils kernel (Devil_1.0_CFS) with no help ....
Any ideas?
Just wondering...

why on earth did you flash the CM7 as a part of the process? I always have just downloaded an appropriate kernel (devil, stockplus etc..) + ICS ROM (latest was RC4.1), once I'd rooted my stock 2.3.6 ROM with CF-Root (takes only 5 minutes). ICSSGS' ROMs can be applied straight on top of any previous ROM, the only requirement is that you have root privileges + CWM installed. Flashing CM7 is often frustrating, at least for me. I personally see no point in flashing it before the ICS ROM. If you know better, pleasy enlighten me

Sooo i ve flashed with Odin at the PC the XXLPY Open Germany ICS Firmware 2 weeks ago. Then i have rooted it with CWM and installed Superuser. Everything worked great but....
Yesterday i wanted to flash the Franco Kernel so i got the updater app downloaded it and in recovery mode with cwm i installed the zip. Everything fine after rebooting i got stuck at the bootscreen Samsung Galaxy Note i thought okay i try a wipe also it didnt help at all. In Recovery Mode it seems that the Note cant mount my external SD anymore :S so how can i fix the Note problem? Because i can enter Download and Recovery Mode so it isnt Hardbrick is it?
Thank you for tips.
Sascha
Franco is a GB Kernel not an ICS one
If you can get into recovery use Odin PC and try flashing the original ICS firmware from 2 weeks ago. Hopefully you can then reboot. If not try a GB ROM that will suit the Franco kernel. Hope that works for you.
Same happened to me, I pulled out battery and then put it back, after that went to recovery download mode and did the rest of the thing using PC ODIN.
I used GB ROM to get back. but still it sucks as FC errors.
After many FC I was able to navigate to setting and did the factory reset.
then once again I flashed the ICS Rom and now its working fine.
same works here also i tried at first gb 2.3.6 by drkategas thread so the original and then flashed the ics again and rooted it with cwm
everything as it used to be
hey guys,, i seem to have stuffed the recovery of my phone,, i stupidly installed cwm on my phone without root, but when i reflashed with odin the stock recovery works but when i install cwm, it doesnt go into recovery
CWM doesn't require root!
Try to reflash a stock rom. Not the one package file but the whole rom.

Make sure it is Just the "S5830" Any other then your in the wrong thread.
Tbh The order i do it, Flash the latest stable stock rom Via odin, Flash update {Any Kernel} (On phone) Then Reboot into CWM To flash a rom.

pretty sure you meant TWRP recovery.
Touchwiz is a Samsung stock launcher.
Your step seems correct.
You should be trying to capture the log.

Hey guys, seems that the latest builds of CM11 (4.4.4) have the same problems on my phone.
Country: Romania (Europe)
- I have an i9000 with CWM Recovery 6.0.4.7
- I'm trying to flash CM11 4.4.4 (last i tried: cm-11-20140729-NIGHTLY-galaxysmtd) from CM11 4.4.2 (cm-11-2014-02-28--NIGHTLY-galaxysmtd -> XXJVU)
- I did WipeData/FactoryReset, Wipe Cache, Wipe DalvikCache and Format /System, after that I flashed "cm-11-20140729-NIGHTLY-galaxysmtd" (CM11-4.4.4), and flashed GAPPS for 4.4.2 (i tried with 4.4.3 too), and reboot (i get no errors)
- The ROM boots up and everything seems to be okay besides the fact that i have no sim service (no signal bars, or pin code pop-up checker at startup), at "About Phone" i get "Baseband version Unknown", Wi-Fi is grayed and it's freezed ("Turning Wi-Fi on..." forever), Bluetooth it's not grayed out, but once i enable it, the "on" button goes gray and it does nothing, also when i go to "About Phone" -> "Status", the Settings app crashes.
I tried to flash a stock radio/modem (XXJVT, XXJVU) in hope that would fix the problem but no change.
I tried to do another wipedata/factoryreset, wipe cache, wipe dalvik after installing the rom and gapps and cleared the data and cache for "Settings" app and others but still with no succes in fixing something.
I tried the M8 build and other close nightlies, all seem to have the same problem.
If i flash my old rom back, everything is working perfect.
HELP! Any solutions to this?
Thank you guys in advance!
I had the same problem yesterday. Try to re-install the ROM. If it still doesn't work then flash a stock ROM (JW4) with Odin and then install 4.4.4 again. The last one worked for me.

After you flashed the stock firmware (JW4 aka GingerBread 2.3.6) what and how did you flash a recovery that is able to install CM11 4.4.4 Roms?
EDIT (FIXED IT):
This solved the issues that i talked about in the main post
I was on CM11 4.4.2, entered recovery and did full wipe
- I flashed stock firmware for i9000 Sweden (JW4 Gingerbread 2.3.6) via Odin
- I flashed root for it wich included a cwm recovery 3.0.0.x
- Entered the recovery which the root installed and did a full wipe
- Flashed directly "cm-11-20140729-NIGHTLY-galaxysmtd", after which the phone rebooted in a different cwm recovery (6.0.5.0) and installed the rom and rebooted again
- After reboot, the phone booted directly in the new cwm recovery 6.0.5.0, and i did a full wipe
- Flashed again "cm-11-20140729-NIGHTLY-galaxysmtd" and "gapps-kk-20140606" and now the rom (cm11 4.4.4) works perfect with no more problems

CM10.2 contains such recovery. On your place I would flash stock JVU to get for sure last Gingerbread bootloader (JWx don't contain it). As your system and data partitions have been resized you MUST flash together with firmware also the PIT file 512 and enable repartition in Odin, use version 1.82 or 1.83 for that and run it as administrator.
Safer way for not to loose IMEI anymore is to upgrade stepwise (GB,ICS,JB,KK) so first CM9, then CM10.2, then CM11

I didn't lost the imei (or so i think). I just had no service, no enabled sim. (no "imei lost" warning messages)
