Official 2.3.6 for India is out for GT-S5830i

The Galaxy Ace (model number S5830I) is reportedly getting the Android 2.3.6 update, as Samsung has finally set a few balls in motion to update its older devices. As reported by Android OS, the update for the Ace is available for download via Samsung’s dedicated software, Kies. Here is the update version for the Ace S5830I: S5830IXXLA2/S5830IODDLA1. Like all other updates, this one will be distributed to Samsung Ace customers in batches, so you’ll have to be a little patient, if you still haven't received the update for your phone.

Anyone tried ??

are galaxy ace S5830 and galaxy ace S5830I same? cant understand i m from india

sammobile already made announcement that this is not generic version so do not try to flash it as it may brick phone..
they sade 5830i has some different chipset.... so better wait for some time
official update in india are ddkqX so this was what i asked sammobile on twitter and they replied and announced that do not flash this....
all of google news shows galaxy ace getting update but its not

I wondered the same, but I suppose it works for both the phones. I read it on another thread in this forum. People have tried it. I am on 2.3.7 (CM 7.2) so not quite eager to try it out yet.

the one who is saying that he is on 2.3.6.. not this rom specifically and why to talk more as sammobile officially said that this won't work on 5830
i moved away from indian roms months back and never saw region while flashing as all have english and thats more than enough to use roms

For the first time I rooted my phone, I followed this steps that are in the following thread:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1034145
First of all, follow the G. step.
G. Flash Custom Recovery
Follow strictly this step-by-step.
Then, you should be able to root the phone.
To you, what works is the E. step.
E. Rooting for 2.3.3/2.3.4/2.3.5/2.3.6/2.3.7
Remember that you have to download the file attached to the post, upd_1.zip.
I think that it is the best way to root.

no it didn't work on me .. and odin can't detected my phone...

as i can see you may not be owner of rarely found "i"
and as stocks of international SGA or vice versa do not work , i don't think its good idea to flash cf-root on top as no one actually saw sources for 5830i

OK. R u thinking to change your phone?

[Q] I'm confused

Hi guys, i've just bought a Samsung Galaxy S Advance I9070 and I'm a little confused. My previous phone was a Galaxy Ace S5830i, I had that phone rooted (but it was too easy, just flash a .zip file) and with a custom rom.
So I have some questions:
1) For now I just want to root my new phone but the methods that I found here are not too clear to me. I first saw this method, but my firmware is not there. My phone came with I9070UBLI1 (2.3.6 GB). So i can't root my phone? my kernel isn't even in sammobile.com/firmwares
2) I want to make a backup just in case before rooting, so, what recovery should I use with this phone? cwm? this? or which one?
3) What is "binary counter"? In galaxy ace that wasn't present.
4) I saw that in samsungfirmwares site there are some 4.1.2 kernels, but they are for Rusia. I'm from Chile. So can I flash the russian kernel? will I loose my signal, 3G or something? Do you recommend upgrade to JB? with stock russian or a custom rom?
5) Do you recommend a custom kernel? which one? This looks nice
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
I hope you can help me with those questions (numering your answers just like i did with my questions), I just want to enjoy a lot my new phone. :good:

I read the forums, but I'm still confused, for example, for rooting, in the thread that I linked in 1) there isn't the firmware that came with my phone, so I went to here, there isn't neither, then I read this post, but to do that I need dowload my phone's firmware, but the one that came with my phone there isn't in samsungfirmares web page, so I suppose I can flash anyone for Chile (my country), there are 2, but idk if they will work, so, if I'm going to take that risk I need to make a backup first, but idk what recovery I should use.
I have a mental bootloop

I bought my phone in January.
Then became member of xda in january.
Flashed russian jb all releases as they released in February.
Rooted my phone in same month.
Started using kernels in same month.
Started tweaking in same month.
And now i am really happy with my phone's performance.
As i was new to android and xda i have done all this because i was not worried about my warranty.
In short, go ahead don't think so much.

[Q] If update official update from different country will baseband change?

Hello guys, i will explain the story in order, sorry for my bad Grammar.
first i have the official GTI9070 but i forgot the baseband (GB)
then i accept software update that appear in notification bar, my baseband become I9070DXLK2 (GB)
and i see there's CM11 out that can make kit kat running in I9070.
but it requires root to install CMW / TWRP..
so hard to find root zip for DXLK2, and then i found one full ROM rooted then flash it with odin.
my baseband still I9070 (GB) but rooted (binary counter++)
after that i flash TWRP with odin too.
then i try flashing CM11 with TWRP.
it success, but no mobile network.
i search at this forum and someone say "no mobile network happen because flashing from GB (2.3.x) directly to KK (4.4.x)"
he said first update from GB to official samsung JB.
the problem, there's no official samsung JB update for my country/region (DXLK2)
my question, if i flash the official samsung JB update from other region.. let say it italy.. will my baseband change?
if it changed, what's the problem and whats the negative impact? what should i do better?
thx in advance.
PS: my device is Samsung Galaxy S Advance GT-I9070 (Indonesian)

You don't have any negative impact if you flash any stock JB firmware, only with your warranty if you still have one.
Please, follow this guide from point A (JELLYBEANIZATION): [GUIDE] From stock GB to Custom JB (Noob-friendly)
After you updgraded to JB, ask/read some tutorials linked here: [{INDEX of GUIDES/TUTORIALS}] Galaxy S Advance [GT-I9070].
Be sure when you proceed to do something OR ASK before, NOT AFTER you doing something wrong.

Or maybe removed. Try on samsung-updates.com or sammobile.com

In Canada, have XXLK2 (Africa?). Want JB, use UK version?
I bought my unlocked I9070 almost 2 years ago and am thinking about upgrading to Android 4.1.2 (JB).
On samsung-updates there appear to be lots of JB versions for different regions.
Can I just select the one for Britain (XXLQE)? Is there anything I need to check re: compatibility?

Yes you can flash any stock firmware for I9070. Be sure you don't flash firmware for I9070P.

Flashing worked...once I found a .zip file

I had a lot of trouble trying to get the samsung-updates.com download to work (used the free one, which either didn't start most of the time or died during download). Eventually, I took the filename (for Britain) and Googled it, and found a download site that let me download it (required 3 hours).
Armed with the .zip file and ODLIN, it worked like a charm. All my installed apps and data survived, which surprised me. I thought this would be a vanilla install.

Yes it can be. USB JIG is only the way to boot your phone in Download Mode. After that, your only step is to flash thru Odin stock firmware.
Good luck

ok, thanks... i will try...but how can i find a jelly bean firmware for romania? i saw that are for regions,and i dont know wich one to use, i want it to work on orange romania...if you can give me a link or some advice, i just want stock jelly bean unlocked on my I9070P

It should be all good as long as you DO NOT take Hong Kong.
Not sure about P versions but non-P HK versions were reported as messing up - possible bricks.
At 1st everyone who wanted early try used leaked russian JB (before there were official ones for other regions) - it worked pretty much all over the world
Sent from my TF300T using XDA Free mobile app

ok , i will try russian version... after i will get my phone from service, due to that hard brick
anyway, thank you very much for helping me

First of all, be sure that your phone model is a GT-I9305, what CSC you have doesnt matter.
You might wanna take a look in my guide, for flashing official firmware for your i9305, link in my signature, also there are links to where you can download i9305 stock firmwares, follow the guide and you should be good to go.
If there's no stock fw for your country, download one closest to your country, if youre gonna flash custom roms after updating to 4.4, it doesnt matter much what stock fw you will choose.
Good luck.
