[Q] Strange issues on stock firmwares - Galaxy Ace S5830 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Ok so I had gt-s5830 for a year and a half and flashed lots of roms, but a few months ago it started doing some strange things that never happened before (all of these are on STOCK ROM, I faced it with DDKQ6 and XWKTM because I usually use these two but I bet it would do that on every firmware because it never did it before):
- when deodexing with adb permissions in /system/app always set to rw-rw-rw- instead of rw-r--r-- and it makes possible to adb-push and use system app without rebooting but it never did it before (both kq6-ktm)
- when flashing cf-root 3.7 b84 by ketut everything is fine (except for the next issue of the list), then if I try battery extender (based on cf-root b83 that also cause me this issue) it changes su command's permissions (as it says titanium backup) to wrong ones, and even if I fix them it will causes problems like soft brick if I use mobile odin and slow restore from titanium (never happened before) (both kq6-ktm)
- still on cf-root/battery extender, sometimes wifi turns on but just don't receive any data, and when it does, mobile data will not turn on anymore and offline mode gets stuck, it sometimes gets solved with a reboot but not everytime (both kq6-ktm)
- some init.d script just don't work, like on dta2sd that says to me that I need to do an a2sd repair, then swap and zipaligning at boot don't work (kq6-ktm) or even project silk and similars
- when I try to flash slaid's gpu rendering patch my phone just don't make it to reach even bootanimation and I need to reflash the whole firmware
these are the main problems I'm getting that never happened before... is it normal so I can do something to fix it or my phone just need to be changed because is getting old?

dear friend:
i didnt read all the issues ,because they are a lot , so if facing all this , simply stop using stock , specially for our ace there are so many smooth roms like merge rom and nitrogen and cm10.1 modded by mardon , plus there are many perfect scripts to make your phone smooth like hell ,hope that i helped

The problem is the stock rom itself & not your phone. When you root your stock using upd_1.zip & you flash an alternative kernel to support init.d scripts, the root begins to act weird. All I can say is, root on stock is unstable for changes. You can either keep complete stock or you can just flash a custom rom. Or if you root the stock, you'll have to keep changes within the limits.

I've already tried lots of custom roms but stock has better battery life and lots of useful stuff for me so I'd rather stay on stock if I can find a solution.. Thanks btw

So do you mean I should root it with kernel itself to avoid problems? And could I change kernel after that or is it dangerous?
Also: with custom roms based on stock with battery extender kernel I'm getting the Titanium Backup error... What?

Well I just tried two scenarios:
After all cwm wipes
Flashed stock ddkq6 and just rooted it without kernels then deodexed and again wrong permissions in /system/app
Same with xwktm
Flashed stock ddkq6 only changed kernel and after deodex same thing again
It may be not a problem but all the issues on my first post start with wrong permissions in system...

Try a different root explorer. I'm saying this because I sometimes have strange issues with ES file explorer. Also as far as I know, su doesn't integrate well into the stock ROMs. Try freeing up some space in system by deleting some bloatware. Try using SD maid pro. Finally, try a fix permissions via recovery. Probably this might solve your problem.

[ReResolved] Overcome ROM & Camera issues

Hi All...
I got my Unbranded GSM Phone+Wifi+3G version of Galaxy Tab on Jan 1st 2011 and finally voided warranty yesterday after watching the forums for a long time now..
I successfully install the overcome kernel and the rom.. Although, I didnt follow the instructions suggested.. I didnt do a Re-stock and didnt wipe ny Internal SD...
Every thing works great and the phone is too good .. Thanks to the ROM .. Alterbridge..
Only thing is .. the Camera doesnt work:
Code:
Warning
Camera Failed
I know it is not fair to ask for help without following the suggested steps .. But still curious to get it fixed of there are ways.. I restored all the Data but the mistake I did is also I also restored System Apps..
To try fixing.. I restored the Camera.Apk from the ROM.. (after mounting the root in r/w mode) ..
Just looking for any other suggestions...
If nothing works.. I would restock the kernel.. but restoring the apps and data is a bit painful.. (I only have the free version of Titanium backup)...
Thanks..
PS: Also, I havent posted much on forums..hence unable to reply to the main thread..but it would be still unfair to ask there as I havent followed the instructions...
BTW Calendar App are FCing.. Just realized..
Camera
Hi, did you get any reply?
I'm having the same issue.
Not not yet.. thinking of restocking and wiping now... backing up
This time I will not restore all the apps..
Also, a bit worried in full flashing and restocking but will still try...
Which other ROMS have you tried..? Thinking of also checking roto jmiv2 ...
just be aware that if you follow the overcome installation guide and use the jmk safe installation package, your internal sd WILL get wiped
Yes.. aware of that.. redid the whole thing.. titanium backup started FCing.. redid the ROM.zip part again.. TB works after that.. restored most of my stuff.. seems all is well
Thanks for all your suggestions ..cheers!
back to beginning
Some exchange experiment srewed up my phcone.. got auto wiped...
now reconfired all data & apps.. and my camera is again not working.. F%@%@U&@ really frustrated
Also I tried Video call.. the front camera doesnt work.. Any suggestions?
No time to wipe out and redo everything this week

After upgrading to Overcome Rom my camera now fails when I try to open it.
I read in the Overcome thread over in the Development forum this
"the camera has linked & shared libraries with the Email application. Try to replace Email.apk with a stock version. That usually fixes 99.99% of all problems with the camera app."
Where do I get the stock Email.apk ? and how do I replace the one I'm using with the stock one ?
Thanks for any help,

[Q] ThunderBolt help!!

heyy guys i found the ThunderBolt 2.5.1 and followed the instructions for the installation. installed all the cwm.zips but now my fone freezes on kernel flash screen do yu know if i can reverse it or something?? plzz helpp. i have sgs i9000 running cm9 build16 on semaphore 0.8.1 kernel
Go to CWM, wipe data and flash rom and kernel again. Not all thunderbolt tweaks can be used on ics as they're made for GB.

I looked at pikachu's ThunderBolt thread and it says that only the main cwm works with ics for now. I am not sure what he means by "the main cwm", and it doesnt specify which ics, but states that ThunderBolt should work on all ROM without exception. Any suggestions?

He means the main script (thunderbolt 2.5.1, the one in first post). But LMK and I think it was screenstate scaling(both in second post) do also work on ics. And it's the same on all ics roms.

Theeeen how come it didnt work on mine? Maybe i did something wrong then? All i did is download the main cwm, reboot into recovery, mount everything (i.e /system, /data, /datadata, /sdcard, /emmc) then flashed the zip. Everything went well, but when i rebooted the system, it didnt go past the kernel flash screen (semaphore ics pic in my case)...

[Q] Settings loss after reboot

Hello there, I am a newbie in this forum. Last few day I flashed my S5830 with SGSII JB ROM v10.1 and it works well. I love the ROM a lot.
However, today I have found out that, every time after i reboot my phone, some settings of my apps are gone. First problem is the launcher, I am using Go launcher all the while and I set it as default launcher, but after reboot the default setting is gone and I have to set it as default again, every time after reboot.
Second problem I found is the setting of my 3rd party messaging app, the settings in the app are all being reset back to default state, meaning the settings set by me are all gone, again, same thing happens every time after I reboot the phone.
I thought it might be the bug of the ROM, but i looked through ROM thread and seem that nobody mentioned about it, so I am curious why this happens.
Anyone can help out? Thanks.

There is a tweak manager come with the CF-Root-S5830-v3.7-b82 I installed( is kernel or CWM, I think? Sorry for being noob), I suspected the problem came from this thing, so i tried to remove all the "ticks" in tweak manager and then reboot again but the same thing happen again.
I had used the darktremor a2sd script provided in it & also the a2sdgui app to have more storage. But some of my apps went missing. Though they were existing, I wasn't able to use them.
Fix : Reflash the rom. Delete the a2sd scripts from the system/etc/init.d folder & try some other a2sd scripts like d2ext+, etc.

Stock firmware is the original samsung firmwares not edited not rooted not tweaked nothing
ROM could be many thing TW is like samsung based firmware but has a few extra touches like rooting some tweaks and apps that requires root stuff like that
And another kind is on CyanogenMod this sort of roms offers speed more smoothnes and lot better performance than touchwiz but still with it you cant use s-pen features like on the stock and some other bugs
And there are AOKP they are similiar in looks like CyanogenMod but with a really masive customizations available in there
So thats the main thing you should kniw

you can try wiping /system /preload /data /cache /dalvik cache and flash the stock rom again or you can try custom roms of your choice after reading from here. (dont ask which is the best, just read reviews, watch youtube videos and decide for yourself)
Edit: you can flash philz kernel first from here first and then do all the wipes:

Look, you're having problems with the stock ROM, after the update. Now u have some choices,
1)Going back to ICS using sammobile and ODIN.
2)Flashing the PhilZ kernel using the link given by treacherous_hawk and then doing those wipes and again install JB using ODIN, like you did earlier. yes it'll wipe all the data so better back up the phone on PC before doing the wipes.
3) Use custom ROMs. You can read about the custom ROMs in the Android development forum, there are methods to root with the CWM recovery and then how to install custom ROMs.

Yesterday I had flashing philz kernel XXLT6 and then did rooted with rootsuperuser file (install at cwm).
And now when turn on phone, opening 'galaxy note n7000' show with caution sign, that sign was never shown before. Is it safe for my note? Was it true behave?
What should i have to do? with right step actually. What first, what then, what last.

you got the yellow exclamation mark because you used the .tar file for philz kernel. if you use the .zip file and flash it from stock recovery you automatically get root and no yellow triangle. You can remove the yellow triangle using the "triangle away" app from play store( paid version, if you consider donating) or search for free version on XDA. use that to get rid of yellow triangle.
That is the yellow triangle you've got. Don't worry mate. It's just a symbol, if u wanna get rid of it, go to the Android development forum here and there will be a thread for how to remove yellow triangle, read that. The sign is nothing to be worried about. Now you have rooted, you can flash the various custom ROMs and be extremely carefull to follow the instructions in the ROM thread before you flash.
Hmm okay guys.
So um, what should i have to do first? Wiping data and then install new stock rom or reinstall kernel firstly or what?
I was read in android dev.thread and got nothing exactly the same with my problems. I need some right step to doing stuff (philz kernel, wipe data, update new stock), so that nothing bad will happen to note.

if you are not on safe kernel, you should install safe kernel first like philz (which i guess you already did) boot into recovery mode and do all the wipes (if you do not want to save any data). put the phone in download mode connect to computer, open pc odin, click pda select the stock rom from save location and click start. Once finished put the philz kernel on ext sd card (the one corresponding to your stock rom) and go to stock recovery and install zip from ext card and select the philz kernel .zip file and you should be good to go.

Once finished wiping, we should choose 'reboot system' or just 'power off' , and go to download mode after that?

If the contacts are in phone memory they would get deleted.. If you go to mounts/storage and choose the last option mount usb while connected to computer and delete everything on internal memory (not on external sd) you will be able to clear up usb storage space too but then you will lose what's app data (example)..

Rootable firmware

Hey guys, which one of the newest firmwares are rootable? I downloaded some of the newest ones and the ace ginger root file doesn't work for it so I had to downgrade until I found one that was rootable.
Sorry if this has already been asked or talked about before but I'm a little off on the Cooper forums xD

I tried the upd_1.zip on ddkq8 & it had worked. But when I flashed int2ext+ on BE kernel, device didn't boot & after a factory reset via cwm, it did. But this time, all the apps that need root access like the cwm, sd maid, etc., failed to open up & stuck on black screen with the app name label at the top. What could be the reason ?

Let's clear something up !
First of all, ALL ROMS can be rooted !
I have alot of experience in that, and after 3 years of testings first and only problem when u try to root a rom is SYSTEM free SPACE !
So, before complain that a rom cannot be rooted, just see how much free space u got (u can do that without root, using last 3.0 root explorer).
After u do that, make a flashable zip only with meta scripts that remove Maps.apk or something, than try again. It's 100000% workin !
Peace all !
Hi everybody!
You could easily remove bloatware (and much more) via aroma filemanager 1.8, just mount all, install zip from sdcard, select aromafm-1.80.zip run it and enjoy. The easiest way! Good luck.

There's a bloatware removal script for galaxy y that works even for ace. It works even without root. It is just a updater script that removes many unwanted apps. Just flash via recovery. Easy as that

As aromafm-1.80.zip by Amarullz is a file manager for all android , you can: remove or add any file anywhere, change the names of all the files , etc.
Good luck. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1646108

Thank you! Downloading. Thanks for everything guys. I gave cooper to my girlfriend and I had Stock on Fire installed and it's giving her problems. The /system seems to have gotten corrupted somehow and a lot of apps FC and when I try making a Nandroid it stops at backing up system.
I'm about to just flash the latest stock rom, root it and add the all in one ICS/lockscreen mod and just leave it there. Do you guys recommend anything else? I just want something that I can leave it at and not worry about anymore.

Hi SuperAce609, yesterday I installed S5830BUKT2_S5830VODKT1_S5830XWKT8_HOME.tar.md5, erased Thinkfreeoffice with aromafm-1.80, rooted with upd_1.zip, installed CWM recovery, flashed BE kernel and int2ext+, updated superuser and Google play and all went like a charm. I made it for practising and remembering the old times. Now, I'm back on my favorite rom again, but as I said before all went fine. Cheers.
