Which official 2.3.6 firmware shall I install?

My mum has a Samsung Galaxy Ace and she is complaining about quick battery draining and low space. I figured the best thing would be is too update it from 2.3.3 too 2.3.6.
The problem is that Kies is saying that 2.3.3 is already the newest one, so I decided I will go on the internet and look for some official 2.3.6 ROMs. I found many, and the problem is that I don't know which to install not to mess anything up.
I found many people saying that they are stuck in boot loops and their phones lag even more because of the update. The question is: Which ROM shall I use? Right now my mum has 2.3.3 XWPKY and I want to update to one of the 2.3.6 ones.
I found many:
DDKQ8 (oldest one, boot loops apparently)
XWKTM (value pack, newest)
XWKPY (in the middle) which apparently is 2.3.6.... (people are saying it's actually 2.3.3).
Anyway, guys, which ROM do you use, if you have a official one? Any help is appreciated. Thanks.

I'm using KTM as base, it works fine, but if you're worried the little space you have now, then upgrading... xDDDDDDDD
Don't worry you can delete useless apps and free memory space

Bootloop is fixed doing wipe factory reset and cache via stock recovery, after flashing the Official Firmware via Odin

Thanks man! Didn't see that thread. And about the little space: The phone is filled bloatware from Orange. Oh, I'm gonna sound like a noob now, but what is KTM? Thanks ;D Also, on the page there's some Vietnam firmware.... I live in the UK. My question primarily was which version (as in, the letters such as DDKQ8 shall I use.

Here it is where you'll get all official firmwares http://www.sammobile.com/firmwares/1/
Select your country if you want, KTM is an official firmware from Spain (android 2.3.6.) but don't matter if you flash a firmware from another site but you'll need to change maybe the modem after flash an Indian Firmware, so try to flash an European Firmware to avoid this kind of stuffs

I recommend you the Spanish KTM... Good battery duration and it's perfect as base.

Thanks for the replies. I found this site with firmwares: http://sampro.pl/firmware/android/samsung-s5830/
Holy crap. That's quite a lot to choose from... Are they all the same? Or do they come with different bloatware/lockscreens etc. Also, which shall I install so I won't have problems with the modem?

Thanks, that's all I needed to know. I also read through a thread on this ROM. Gonna flash it tomorrow. Thanks again!

Flashed and rooted it, no problems whatsoever. Do you guys recommend anything to make it even quicker/get more space/better battery life?? Because the internal space it bad. Thanks.

well, the best way >>> delete all your useless apps (I don't use gapps e.g.), which are consuming your ram (or are running in background), reduce the brightness, use low frequencies, disable sync, delete default browser and use a light one... you can try Stocklite rom (stable without bugs and all performance from stock rom)
If you are using a custom based stock rom, don't use setcpu/similar apps to set your CPU frequencies, check my signature thread , to set frequencies when android boot without to use memory space and ram consumption

[Q] Stuck with Ginerbread 2.3.6, Slowdown. Need Help

Hi Guys,
I am a Galaxy S user. My Galaxy S was bought in Finland and still running (basically stuck with) Ginerbread 2.3.6 (I9000xxJVU). The phone's hardware is just fine (except slow GPS) but it has become paninfully slow and sometime shutting down/restarting on it's own.
Is it a good idea to reset the existing GingerBread 2.3.6 or get a different ROM?
I am a total novice and have not tried any other ROMs on it. I did some research about the alternative ROMs but there are so many options it made me really confused.
Could you guys suggest any stable and fast option for my Galaxy S i9000?
Also, if you could guide how I could migrate to that particular ROM from present Gingerbread, it would be really helpful.
Thanks in advance for your support and for this great forum.
Cheers

No reply?!
Could anyone please help?

Hi,I'm not going to be much help as I'm a noob myself but I can say I had same stock laggy gt 19000 which through like u said a lot of confusion about rooting and ROMs researching XDA and YouTube you can do it my galaxy s is like a new phone so stick with it,one tip is always stick to you model and kernel version and write things down and I hope it goes as well as it did for me. Btw I used Odin 3.1 and clockwork to root and Flashed ROM with Cm 10.1 stable.

if you want to stay to 2.3.6 you can just factory reset your phone
Try this
Shut your Android Galaxy S down (Power off) or remove Battery.
Now press Volume up, Home and Power together.
If the Samsung Symbol is coming up leave the Home Button.
Then there is a boot Menu
Volume Up and Down to Navigate , Home to select the chosen option. ( factory reset )
---------------
if you want to upgrade to ICS or JB rom
root your firmware , choose the right cf-root from this thread

Thank you mistrp74 and The Tox for the help.
I am still a bit confused, I cant seem to locate the right cf-root [Ginerbread 2.3.6 (I9000xxJVU)] from the thread you mentioned.
One more thing, how is your experience of running the Custom Roms, is it much better than the Samsung Firmware? Does all the function work fine?
I will need a bit of spoon feeding in the beginning for the update... as I have never tried it before and I am scared of bricking my phone.
So, please don't give up on me

The right CF-Root is in the seond to last post on the first page I believe- if you can fnd the one for XXJW4, the one you need is right above it
Custom ICS/JB roms are definitely smoother in many ways, although bear in mind because stock Jelly Bean don't include them, both FM Radio and 3G video calling won't work by default (two features of stock roms, I guess AllShare is another if you use it like me). Otherwise every other function is stable and rock solid. Except for the CM10.2 builds, which are still in an initial stage, the JB roms here should have everything working fine.

Thanks a lot guys!
I finally managed to do it.
I installed the CF-Root without any problem but RemICS-UX v1.3.1 (Team Remics) didn't load. It was stuck at the boot screen.
I thought I bricked my phone... but then I installed Ginerbread 2.3.6 (I9000xxJVU) using Odin and then installed plain vanilla ICS 4.0.3
Coming from Ginerbread 2.3.6 I find a lot of new things and the phone is also snappy and responsive... my old Galaxy S is acting almost like a new phone! So I am really happy.
Now that I am familiar with the process I am confident to tryout other ROMs...
I would like something simple, lightweight and fully-functional/bug-free.
So please let me know if there is any other better ROM I should try.
Thanks again guys!

Just one more question, what's your backup strategy that you guys use?
Or else it a lot of work to update each and every app... one by one... also what about the SMS, call log etc?

Because I'm a person who 1.) doesn't use too many apps and 2.) tries to be as economical as possible, I don't have a large amount to backup. My contacts and calendar are always through Google, and for SMS I use SMS Backup and Restore on Play Store. Call log I don't keep, because I'm not a person who really cares for call logs. I only have one other app, Colornote, and that's cloud-synced as well.
Everything else I need is in internal storage :3

More or less similar situation as TS
Hey guys,
Im in a more or less similar situation as the topic starter. My Samsung Galaxy S GT-I9000 has gotten slow and unresponsive with time.
I would like to update to a custom ROM, and got a little curious about the Slim Bean. But I feel a little unsure about how to proceed.
I'm currently running a custom Gingerbread 2.3.3 ROM, my device is rooted. I flashed this ROM from the Froyo that came with the phone about 2 years ago. It's been so long since I flashed this, I need some directions, as Im afraid I will brick my device.
When I go to recovery mode I see it runs ClockworkMod Recovery v2.5.1.3 - Voodoo lagfix.
Can I just put a Slim Bean 4.2 android version on my internal sd card and run "install zip from sdcard" in ClockwordMod? I would prefer to flash the latest stable version of Slim Bean, which would that be 4.2.2.build7-OFFICIAL?'
Any help would be greatly appreciated,
Bootism

Best way to update from gb or even older to jb is imo the way over cyanogenmod.
Follow this tutorial for 10.1: http://wiki.cyanogenmod.org/w/Install_CM_for_galaxysmtd
And then you can upgrade via cwm to the very good slim bean.

Thanks for the answer!
I recall reading about lots of issues with the lagfix and flashing ROMs. My file storage system is in ext4 instead of standard rfs, I think I should somehow undo this if I recall correct. Is this true?

Do you have an option to unlagfix in recovery?
Sent from my GT-P3110 using xda app-developers app

Yeah, I can choose "voodoo lagfix" in recovery.
It has the following options:
- disable lagfix
- enable lagfix (default)
- /system lagfix on (default)
- /system lagfix off
- debug off (default)
- debug on

Enter disable lagfix and reboot

Ok, so I got Cyanogenmod 10.1.0 running! so far so good

Good job. Now you can flash a zip in cwm.
Sent from my GT-I9000 using xda app-developers app

Yeah, it's a whole new world opening up. Old phone runs relatively smooth, at least way better than before thanks for helping. I will stay on this Cyanogenmod for a bit and explore. Can I just flash in any of the ROMs as .zip in CWM later? I will look for a lightweight ROM for my old phone, any suggestions?

[Q] Question about custom rom firmware

Hi guys, im really new to this forum and all about these android stuffs. As this is my first post, im terribly sorry if i started a new thread. yesterday, i flashed my galaxy mini from stock gingerbread firmware to this custom rom forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2409566
it worked greatly, it says that my android version is 4.0.4 . But, when i installed apps that is supposed to work at ICS, it cant work. It can be installed, but when I tried to run it, it just said that unfortunately, the application had stopped working. im really confused. Any help will be highly appreciated. Thanks in advance!

Which app was that? It's probably an app for armv7 only.

It is BBM. I go through the net to find the system requirements, but i found nothing

Memory leak?
First of all thank you very much to everybody who has been taking apart of developping this rom. It works generally really well. However my SGS has developped some sort of memory leak. During usage it starts litle by litle to loose amount of available memory and at the same time the amount of preloaded apps to memory is also shrinking(according to settings). Eventually available memory goes under 50Mb and phone slows down to unusable. Restart fixes the problem. Sotimes it works days or even a week sometime less.
This same problem aready existed with he origial rom(2.2.1). Eaven after a factory reset it only worked well a couple of hours. Updated with odin to 2.3.6 but touchwiz launcher was freesing all the time. Installed CM11 trough CM9 and formatted system and wiped caches before C11 . Everyting seems to work well but the original problem still remains. Although it now works much longer than with the original rom.
Hardware problem? Some app causing this(only apps running all the time is whatsapp and smooth calendar(according to settings))? Time to buy a new phone?

hi,

after flashing from stock kernel/rom android 2.3.6 to Semaphore_kernel_JVT_1.8.0 for root, i've got cm 9 (cm-9.0.0-galaxysmtd.zip) with Semaphore_ICS_1.3.0. if i try to go higher cm 10-10.2 or cm 11 i get error status 0 after tyring to install from sd card the zip. tried redownloading the zip. using different version from cm site.
still using semaphore kernel with cwm tried all versions installed with odin for JB for cm10 and KK for cm 11. still i get status 0 at install.
done the wipe cache dalvik and factory reset every time before install.
usually to escape the bootloop and reboot i flash the Semaphore_ICS_1.3.0 again as my rom remains unchanged(hopefully ) after the failed installs. isn't my device compatible with cm10-11. do i need another kernel/cwm version?

So now when you have CM9, you should flash CM10.2. It is normal that it first warns, as system partition will be enlarged.
So in fact you must flash it three times and reboot. First time it will only warn of data lost due to upcoming repartition. Second time it will only update recovery to CWM 6.0.4.5. Third time it will flash ROM and after that you must reboot the device.
After being booted into the OS once, you can install CM11. Recovery versions older than CWM 6.0.4.5 or TWRP 2.6.3.1 can not flash KitKat.

cm12 ????

Hello guys! This is my first post here. I couldnt read all 300+ pages thats why i wanted to ask you. I read only positive comments about this rom but I can not se anyone having Bettery drain problem. I installed the ROM 2 days ago and the battery is just draining so fast. For example yesterday I took my phone off the charger at 11:00am and until 04:00pm it had 15 percent battery remaining with only little using and browsing the web for like 5-10 minutes. I can't be the only one having this problem. In the settings I see the Google play services, android system and display are having the best percentage. Please give me some answer or solution to this. I cant use my phone for just few hours a day.

Problem with virginmobile after cm11 install
My apn is set to ee carrier, instead of virginmobile and my carrier shows as orange - uk carriers btw. I know vm piggyback on ee network but when I search for carriers hardly any show up. Is this a known problem and is there a fix (modem flash or other).

Is the nightly 11 version smoother when compared to the stable 10.2.1? What are the main bugs, if any?

Is there any way to make art runtime to work? I'm using the latest nightly but it stucks in bootloop each time i select art

Problem with touch-input
I have a question concerning a bug I am experiencing. Often I am not able to make any touch-command on the right wing of the screen, about 1cm, this is especially annoying when it happens during typing. I did not experience the same bug on the original firmware, I believe. The occurence is not bound to any special app, it even happens on the Home screen.
Is this a known bug and is anyone experiencing the same? Any suggestions what causes this?

Is there a way to increase the RAM and speed up the phone?
So I installed this ROM (11-20311118-UNOFFICIAL-galaxysmtd which is one of the older versions of CyanogenMod 11) on my Samsung Galaxy S i9000, but I encountered a few issues:
- I occasionally lose the Wi-Fi connection, and although it does reconnect itself in a short time, there is a problem with some online games — when the connection is lost, the game is lost which really bothers me.
- Some of the apps that seek a lot RAM memory to be used are really slow-running, like for example Snapchat — the back camera can barely be used and the snaps need much time to open.
- The screen can be unlocked without having to slide, that can be done by only pressing the button on the left side of the home button, which is probably a minor issue.
- Sometimes the phone just bricks when I get a call and I can't answer it, which is one of the major issues.
So, I wanna know if there is a way to fix these issues and maybe a way to increase my RAM memory or get Snapchat to work smoothly. Also, I wanted to ask if some of the newer versions of CyanogenMod 11 (KitKat 4.4) or any other ROM, like Jelly Bean 4.3 or the SlimCat ROMs, can fix any of the mentioned issues. What is the best ROM for my Samsung Galaxy S i9000?
Thanks in advance!

OK, mate.... you seem to be nice fellow, so I will try to help, answers in order of your questions:
if you have dirty flashed CM11 build (over older version without formatting /data and /system): did you try pawitp's reset of wifi settings from the bottom of the OP in CM11 thread? Otherwise also changing wifi region might help (settings/wifi/advanced)
the i9000 has indeed only total 512 MB memory, of which some 364 MB can be used normally. Well, you can increase these by flashing in recovery mode zips of Semaphore kernel for KK (3.4.3) and right after that BigMem libs for KK from Mackay KK ROM Thread. Then enable in the app "Semaphore Manager" (Play Store) BigMem option, reboot, and you will have by default 407 MB memory.
I fail to understand your last question: do you mean that the phone freezes, reboots, or "brick"? Bricking would mean that your OS fails and you have to flash ROM again or restore backup??

Good morning guys.
I use Mia ROM rooted fw 2.2.1 on my Galaxy SL i9003.
Can i flash directly this ROM on my device to update it or there are other best light ROM for my device?
Thank you

No. I don't think so. Your captivate won't bootup with this ROM + Neat kernel

i9000 kernel
Hello,
I have slimbean on my captivate with semaphore. When I try to flash this rom, it tells me that my phone is a i9000 instead of an i897, which it actually is. Which Kernel can I flash that works with this rom, but also is a captivate kernel?
Thanks!

Install APK
I can't install APK file
It's say "Can't open file"

That would be cause you flashed the I9000 version of Slimbean. You can change it in your build.prop but wouldn't suggest it if you're new at it.
Go into your phone settings and check what variant/version is says you have. If it says I9000, you'll have to flash the I9000 version. That being said, if you're 100% your phone is an I897, flash back to stock, grab the I897 Slimbean and then flash Semaphore.

Question on OmniRom Lollipop by HumberOS - Could not be downloaded, error 491
Hi friends,
danielad200 wrote on 23rd March 2015, 09:54 PM
cannot install any app and geting error 491 in the market for install any app
No responses to that in the original thread. I have gotten this bug too. Searches tell me to remove my google account, clear the caches of Google Play, reboot, put in my google account and all will be well. Worked for everyone else on the google searches except me and maybe danielad200.
Any help or suggestions out there?

APN
5.0.2 With Gapps has been my daily driver for a few weeks now, its really smooth. Only thing that seems laggy to me is making calls, and the time lapse between receiving a call and the screen waking up.
5.1 Is worked even more smooth, only issue that I've had is for some reason, I'm not able to access Data with my APN. All my settings are correct. WIll try flashing again, to see if that might help. Is there anything that you recommend? Data worked fine with 5.0.2.

Random Reboot
I am still experiencing random reboots. Normally it happens if i am on the call for 8-10 min.

Works smooth
Works smoothly on my captivate no problem in connection to buttons functioning. although it has many bug issues timely some developers would fix them. Many Thanx to Humber OS creator cause of for captivate the exclusive LP OS made available.

It works!
I've been using this series of ROMs practically since they were released. I wanted to say a huge thank you to HumberOS and Monfro for the work they have done.
I personally have found, after testing each release, that Monfro's April 5.1 port is the most stable, smooth, and quick of all of them. I can't really vouch for anything related to taking calls though, as I don't have a SIM in it.

Thanks a lots .. I have DHG-i897
Humbert , very good job , thanks a lots for your ROM works great , antutu benchmark got 7450 point , only that it is missing is the TV OUT ... that has this cell originally until kk 4.4.4
SGH-I897 ..
thanks against , and let me know if you add that function .. Gus

i897 best option
I have a Samsung Captivate i897 and just put 4.4.4 KitKat on it. Running a bit slow. How does OS version 5 work on the captivate? If people had to recommend a particular OS that was the most current you could get without any real loss in performance what would it be? Found 2.3.5 was fine the few minutes I was on it. But that's pretty old. Was originally going to go for 4.2.2 but found an article on 4.4.4 so went straight to it. Curious other's opinions.
Thanks.
