So if I reinstall the stock ROM from another Galaxy Ace (same one this thing shipped with), the phone doesn't boot, at all.
I put Cyanogen back on, and it boots fine, but my data connection never works and my voice/messaging connection constantly craps out and I need to reimage again. (Weird...if I go back to a working image, then reinstall my current one, it works fine.)
I'm at a loss...but I'm only one step away from returning it anyway.

Something like that, only it doesn't loop. When I load up a stock rom, it simply hangs at he startup "Samsung Galaxy Ace" screen.
after installing your stock rom wipe your cache and dalvik it will work , if not , use odin and flash a different stock firmware first may be KPN or KPH
Irishred is that the stock koodo 2
3.4 rom? I've been looking everywhere for that, could you post a link maybe as I'm sure there are others looking for this also.
Thanks

Well, if you can't flash the stock rom, there's only one thing to do then.
Use ODIN. T_T
It'll push your recovery back to the stock crap too, but then again, there's no reason why it shouldn't work, anyway.
there might be case that it works but you are too lazy to find solution for it to work
what problem you have when you flash stock roms with odin??
You have to flash via Odin, because your internal memory was formated to ext and the stock rom uses a different (I don´t really know which is used by stock rom, but you can google it.)

This is what I was suspicious/worried about. Okay...now to learn to use Odin.
I just found this on sampro.pl I'm at work now so I can't download. Have a look

EXT format issue ?
Just a thought...
I once installed a Cyanogen rom on a Galaxy S that changed something in the memory - and stock rom was not working afterwards. I had to go back to Cyanogen. Too bad if you're planning on selling it in stock rom condition.
The only way back was to find a stock rom that contained the whole package - including correct pit file, pda, modem and a repartition of memory.
Flashed via Odin.
Is it a one file/multiple files package? Kernel update?
I hope any of this is can help you solve the problem.
It is a one file package. Password is sampro.pl. It is multi-csc for koodo & telus. Mine loaded up telus so i had to change it. It works great. I will go back to myth ics rom. Its just nice to know that if I need to return to stock I can.

Wow, been looking for this
Will give it a try, Thanks!
Edit: Works great, all back to stock Koodo (temporarily). Thanks again for posting Spider, XD
just to add...
I experimented with a few custom ROMs but they rendered some functionalities un-usable. I tried to recover from a full system and data backup which failed.
From that: 1)Followed instructions from androidadvices.com (androidadvices.com/update-samsung-galaxy-ace-s5830-xwks9-gingerbread-235-firmware/-- page 2) But used stock ROM for Koodo (GT-S5830D S5830DTLKI4) from spidre9909's post;
-- a download link to ODIN is included...
2)Rooted the phone and re-installed Clockwork;
3)Restored my full backup created just before my trials with custom ROMs
Now I am back! At this point, follow unroot procedures — if you want to…
Hope this helps...
DXKPB is the firmware I know that includes data.rfs (which means your /data would get formatted with rfs, and that means stock ROM will love your phone again)

it's interesting you mention that your wireless connection doesn't work properly. I flashed the newest firmware (something from vietnam I think) and the same thing ... my connection keeps waffling back and forth from H to 3G to nothing at all.
Hai there, sorry for asking this nooble question but my friends phone seems broken.
My friends got a rooted SGS which has/had TeamHacksungs CM9 on it, which was working as a charm.. Then somehow last night when he pulled out the phone out of his pocket it was bootlooping, he took it to me and I noticed i coulnd get into CWM Recovery. However I am able to get into "Download-mode" Could anyone point out to me how exactly I flash a recovery image to this phone and what files should be used. I did look around the fora myself but only came across some very old posts which I doubt are compatible with a phone that was already rooted, and was already running the latest versions of CWM and Android [4.3]
I already tried to flash a speedmod kernel that came with CMW, which failed.. im still able to get into download mode.
Any halp on this would be really appreciated.
Which files do I flash in Odin to get a working recovery again?
Thanks!
You should be able to flash a stock rom using ODIN, and from there you'll be able to root it and install a custom one again.
ah yea, i posted that too soon, yea thats exactly what i did, i followed:

OK so I didn't back up when I started flashing roms. Right now I'm using thrillseeker with great results but I need to start all over and back up my stock before I flash again...unless there's a way to download and flash through cwm recovery...or can I just use the LG updater and then pick recovery phone.? Please help
Update totally fixed
OK so I tried a few different methods I found and finally got this thing back to complete stock rom,kernal, and stock recovery....it wasn't that bad....I rerooted and flashed thrillseeker 3.1 then flashed 3.12 update ... a battery.zip and a theme and everything is great.......oh yeah I MADE A BACK UP.

Hi buddy.
First of all, I don't entirely understand what are you trying to do. What to you mean with "firmware update"? Do you want to flash a new ROM?

Got it. Check this thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2751263
You may find all the information you need there. Even if you can't, don't worry, is just a minor update, it is not Kitkat.
I've already been through that thread and haven't really found my solution to my issue. Any ideas?

Sadly no, my friend. Any reason in particular about why you want this specific update?
Let's hope somebody else in this forum can help you.
Are you running a stock recovery? Have you tried using Myth Tools to flash back to stock?
Its running stock rom from factory everything is factory right now
I kept getting the dead Android as well. We're you running a KK ROM on your phone before restoring to stock? I was running Validus and tried to use Myth Tools to flash a stock ATT 4.1.1 ROM which also failed to take the update. I then installed a 4.1.2 Bell stock ROM (my phone came from Bell) via Myth, let the phone boot, and then flashed a stock ATT ROM via Myth and it took the update.

I am on 4.1.1 from the factory. This is a referb phone from the factory like not even a week old yet. Boot loader isn't even unlocked. Its all stock and I'm getting dead android.
If you're getting the dead Android, it makes me believe that something may be wrong with the stock recovery. Some people were able to get the update to install using the latest Philz Touch recovery rather than stock recovery.

So I ****** up, I'm usually good with this stuff but I don't know...
Anyways here is what happened. I had a rooted stock rom on Jellybean. Working fine I wanted to upgrade so...
I installed safestrap 3.71 and flashed the Urdroid stock rooted kitkat rom. Then I went onto ODIN and installed the files in this tutorial
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2712039
I got an error and realized crap the ATT Note 3 is not the same as the Rogers version...
ATT = SM900A
Rogers = SMN900W8
soooooo I realized I've been in the wrong forum this whole time and I was wondering what can I do to get help? Safestrap/recovery still works and I'm pretty sure I can flash JB roms still. I'm not sure which rom to use and where to go now.
What can I do to get back to stock or even better get a working Jellybean Rom?
Thanks a lot!
Okay I'm downloading the stock firmware from that sammobile and going to flash it with ODIN, hopefully should put me back to factory condition
