[Q] Why won't my Galaxy Ace install any other rom? - Galaxy Ace S5830 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hey guys, I've been having this problem with my Galaxy Ace, and it is that I can't seem to install any other custom rom on it (via custom recovery mod), except for Stock Rom Evolution 1.5. Here is the link to that very rom. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2079272 . An error message displays when I try to install any other custom rom which I find on the threads on this website, and believe me, I have tried to install alot of them! I was just wondering if anyone might have been experiencing similar issues, and would have any words of advice?

What error are you getting ? Be more specific & btw, wrong section.

tablet won't start after installing custom rom

Hi, I have a rooted galaxy tab. I recently just installed a custom rom and after, it doesn't boot anymore? It only stucks at the boot screen. May I know what's the issue here? Is it a brick or something? Any helps appreciated. Tks!
it sounds like a soft brick, which isn't too bad at all Just switch your tab over to Download Mode and then flash another ROM that is confirmed working on your device.
A hard brick would be if your tab didn't power on in any way at all no matter what, and that would be pretty bad :/
Hi, tks for ur reply! Do u mind telling me where to download those roms? Tks once again!

Hi! I managed to get my rom on samfirmware.com and even flashed it via odin. But one thing, it managed to go the boot screen but then it doesn't move at the "samsung" glowing screen after that. Did I do anything wrong?
Your best bet will be to restock according to Overcome method.

You may have a corrupted /dbdata. If that's true, no matter how many new ROMs or firmwares you install, it won't help you.

Hi! Tks for your advice. I just read through the restocking steps on the teamovercome.net. But I've got a question. Is it compulsory to actually install the overcome kernel and rom?

I installed overcome kernel with many other rom before moving to redpill (because of bluetooth keyboard compatibility). It works great with most of rom 2.3.3 and 2.3.6 base. Don't hesitate to try the kernel with other rom.
Btw, did you try pushing new pit file through odin?

I haven't tried this process yet cause I am curious whether if its necessary to flash the kernel and the rom. But since its good, I will try it later! Tks btw.

Official CyanogenMod 9 Nightlies

Last we heard, CyanogenMod 9's interaction with the Galaxy Tab 10.1 line was limited to the variants shackled either to T-Mobile or to WiFi. However, the CM team has been hard at work, and as of yesterday, the following three editions of the 10-inch tablet have been granted access to the CM nightly kingdom: Verizon's Galaxy Tab 10.1 (SCH-I905)
Unlocked WiFi + 3G Galaxy Tab 10.1 (GT-P7500)
Galaxy Tab 10.1v (GT-P7100)

Let the download begin. And many thanks for all users who contributed to it.
Link to nightly builds: http://get.cm/?device=p3
Change Log for nightlies: http://changelog.bbqdroid.org/#p3/cm9/next
Flash pershoot's recovery from http://droidbasement.com/db-blog/?p=2487 first. Make sure to download the P3 version
Optionally and recomended: Flash latest pershoot's kernel from http://droidbasement.com/db-blog/
Ok but if i flash my gtab, the camera works??
Thanks
So it begins...
I think we can't be more grateful to pershoot (and also isi, seo and the others 10.1v dev) to make it possible. Without them, we could only have dreamed to see our tab updated at all. Now we'll have almost daily updates...

No. I think it's based on isi and pershoot work, so the only changes probably will be more CM9 settings
I wonder if any of these are any more stable than the latest from the usual sources that pershoot has been giving us so far. I know it's based on his and Isi's work so I am just wondering

The file can't be flashed with odin.
It has to be flashed through cwm, but first you have to unlock your bootloader and aquire root.
