HELP! My galaxy ace won't boot anymore HELP!

Hello,
I have installed this "ibtimes . co . uk / articles / 419836 / 20130102 / android421-jellybean-cm101-custom-rom-samsung-galaxy . htm" rom on my (actually my mom's) galaxy ace S5830 and it worked just fine. Before i installed it i made a CWM recovery backup. I wasn't happy with the rom so i wanted to go back to my last one by restoring the backup. first i wiped data and cache and then restored the backup. But now when i tried to reboot the system it got stuck on the Samsung logo and later on it was just a light blue screen. can someone help me please.

Don't worry, you need to flash a stock ROM via Odin. Look at the stickies

Chill your phone can be fixed easily
Simple Bro , Download the firmware files from sammobile.com then Google for Galaxy Ace Odin ..I guess the version is 4.38 or something like that ..and make sure you download the cooper file with it then flash the original firmware using Odin.So then your phone is back to how it was when you bought it.
I hope this was helpful.
If you want the instructions on how to do this ..let me know ..I'll give you the link for the files also

Help!
I'm having the same problem.
I tried to install a new rom on my Samsung Galaxy GT-S5830, but when it was supposed to boot, nothing happend.
I tried to install the original firmware using Odin, but the problem is that I can't connect my phone to my computer.
The only thing my phone is able to do now, is showing the charging screen, opening the samsung recovery mode and accessing the download mode.
I really hope that someone could help me!
Thanks in advance.
PS:
My provider is Vodafone (don't know if it's important)

Dude! Switch off the phone. Then press the 3key combo to go to Download mode. U don't need to go to recovery either (which is a 2key combo). & ops name should be:-
COOPER_v1.0.ops

Hi BscorpionII!
As you can open recovery, if you don't have CWM 5.0.2.6 you could install it from your recovery and then try installing another ROM from CWM 5.0.2.6.
You could read this link
"Nielli's [GUIDE] Guides and Tips How to Root SGA, Install CWM5 and install Mods + Downloads"
In the link you'll find the last stable recovery -version 5.0.2.6- and much more.
Good luck.

[Q] [q] galaxy ace bricked flashing cm7! Help please!

Hello, I was trying to root and install the CM7 on my Samsung Galaxy Ace GT-S5830B. The root and the cwm installation processes worked with no problems, but when I installed the CM7 it just turned off and won't turn on again.
I can't flash a stock ROM via Odin cuz the pc won't recognize the device. It won't turn on in normal mode, downloading mode nor bootloader.
What can I do to solve this issue, please?
Thank you!

Which ROM You have flashed? If You can´t go to Recovery or Download mode, try USB JIG, if not work with JIG, I am sorry Your phone is bricked.
If Your phone can´t nothing try put out battery, connect Your Ace with usb cable (without battery), open odin, hold 3 buttons for download mode (vol.down+home+power) and WITH holding buttons put back baterry. If in Odin You can see yelow oblong with COM, You can now try flash new stock rom.

I tried installing Cyanogenmod 7.2. And err, is there any other way of trying to restore the phone instead of the USB JIG, cuz I don't have any. :/
I've already tried to go on the download mode by the steps you just said (power button+vol up./down + home), but the phone seems to be dead, it won't turn on in normal mode, download mode nor recovery. As the phone won't start in the download mode, i'm not able to flash anything via ODIN.
Is there anything else I could try? What if I try to flash STOCK ROM via ADB to SD CARD using ANOTHER CELLPHONE?
Thanks for helping.

Ah, another important info is that I think the phone "died" with the USB Debugging deactivated, so I think that's why the ADB can't recognize the device, right?

GT-S5830V Won't enter download mode

It goes into Recovery mode ok but no download mode.
Power + vol down (or vol down + vol up) + home makes it loope the galaxy screen once then it just loads the built in rom.
After I first bought it I could get it into download mode. But after rooting her so many times she refuses to play ball.
I have tried unrooting it and uninstalling busybox / CWM etc but don't know what else to try.
is there anyway of resetting the "bios" of the phone to default or something?
I tried restoring the stock build.prop.
Dunno what else to do.
Any advice much appreciated.
Regards.

did u tried entering download mode through terminal?
in the terminal :
su
reboot download
and u ll be in download mode n if this doesnt work then try flashing new rom

He can't get into download or recovery because 5830v is an Aussie version with secure kernel. He needs a USB Jig to get his phone into download mode. However he can root the device by enabling USB debugging and installing the latest drivers and then running an exploit like Moto-Chopper (same as I have done). Then I'd advise using Galaxy Toolbox to unlock the device and backup the EFS. Then I would generate the PIT file and use EFS to do all full image backups of the device. I would buy/make a USB jig and then flash a custom recovery. Then flash new kernel. Then after all of that you may now flash a new ROM. Avoid Odin where ever possible. The 5830v is NOT the same as the 5830i. The i can handle software from the v but not visa versa.
Take that as a word of warning.
Edit: I posted in this thread because there is very little information of XDA about the Galaxy Ace GT-5830v

Hey Jarmezrocks!
I have an Australian Samsung galaxy ace gt s5830V. I am finding incredibly hard to find any info on how to fix the bootloop on my screen. As per your advice I have purchased a usb jig ( to get my phone into dl mode). But as my phone is not rooted and I have never put any upgrades or roms on it I'm a bit puzzled as to why it has done this and how to fix it. In your post you say not to use Odin. Why is that and what can I do instead?
Your help would be greatly appreciated because all the info on here is mainly directed at s5830i.
Thanks

Avoid Odin trying to flash a custom ROM, use it only when you need to. Flashing a more insecure kernel that enables download mode without the use of the USB jig in other words.
For you it maybe as simple as booting into recovery mode and simply doing a factory data reset? That should wipe any data that maybe stopping the device from booting correctly? After factory reset you should be able to flash a custom recovery zip from the factory recovery? I can re-upload what I used that was successful with the S5830V if you are stuck?

[Q] Downgrading firmware on Samsung GT-i8200N

Hello,
I tried to downgrade firmware on Samsung GT-i8200N from android 4.2.2 to 4.1. according to this turorial: Tutorial como downgradear samsung galaxy S3 Mini a android 4.1.1 S3 Mini GT-I8190/L/N on Youtube. There is no excuse for that, i know. But I know now, that i flashed a wrong rom.
My GT-I8200N now shows me just a window with the words "firmware upgrade encountered an issue. Please select recovery mode in kies and try again". If I try to connect it with PC via USB cable, Samsung Kies won't recognize my phone - It just keeps connecting and disconnecting. I changed the USB cabel but still nothing.
I took it to the service center, a technician tried 3 ROMs with no result. I don´t know what to do know, maybe someone can help me.
Thanks
I am sorry For My Bad English

You flashed I8190/N ROM I think. So download correct ROM for your phone via samfirmware.com, download Odin 3.09, go to download mode by pressing Vol down + Home + Power, Extract your downloaded ROM and flash it via odin as PDA/AP.

After pressing Vol down + Home + Power it still shows me "firmware upgrade encountered an issue. Please select recovery mode in kies and try again". Is that wrong? It is like frozen.

I read a thread about similar problem (it has 2 pages here - http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2703239&page=2). According to that thread I should try to flash stock firmware (with Odin) on this website http://samsung-updates.com/device/?id=GT-I8200N . Could you tell me please which one I should choose? I am from Czech Republic and there are not any versions forthis country only for Germany and etc. Does it matter if I flash stock firmware designated for another country?
After flashing stock firmware what I am supposed to do next? My mobile phone will be OK after that? Please help
Again sorry for my bad english

No, it doesn't matter. You can flash firmware for any country, only it must be for I8200N. If you sucessfully flash stock firmware and odin says Pass, everything will be OK and I only recommend to go to stock recovery and wipe data, but it's not necessary.
