Hey guy, I want update my Ace to latest version. I just update my kies today and what's next step? Should I backup my data by using Kies or just copy my data from memory card into computer? What's the latest firmware that I should download?
*
if u want ur ace to run gingerbread, u should download XXKPE firmware from samfirmware...
update ur ace at YOUR OWN RISK bcoz this is a leak beta firmware from Europe, not an official firmware from samsung...

u can follow this step to update

and this to root

do this at YOUR OWN RISK...

congrats...hopefully SOD is resolved too..
btw when u do titanium restore in batch does it take a long time? mine will take a long tiem just to restore a few apps at a time.
*
i dont know bout the SOD...coz b4 i update to GB it jz happened once...
but from the XXKP9, XXKPB and XXKPE...there was no SOD at all... icon_rolleyes.gif
its not so fast also...for me its jz ok...
the bigger the file to restore the longer time it will take...
for me to restore all 44apps...its jz take me less than 15min...

yea2, i got that. It won't reboot. Not from Odin, not from pressing of button, and it won't boot by removing the battery and reinserting it back in and turning on. I had already feared I bricked the phone, but then, it can go to download mode. thank god.

now back to GB also.. hahaha!
*
yeah thats right...i also thought that ive damage my phone or coz it 2 be dead permanently...
haha...
ive look down on samfirmware there was 1 user said need to cancel out the home text...
n it will work...but im afraid after what jz happened...hahaha

xizzat is super correct in this case y'all. so read up GB risk-takers, cuz ur gonna need this if u want to update official GB with Kies.

I also tried the leaked gingerbread version, and I also got the hard brick thingy. Already felt a little regret switching to leak GB, but, I found ur saviour! The thing is, the GB is a multi-package firmware and to downgrade, u need a multi-package froyo firmware. From samfirmware.com, there is only ONE froyo firmware that is multi-package, which is the arabic S5830JPKA7 (luckily). so here's the low down on how to change ur firmware back to S5830DXKC1.

This guide is made in mind that the peeps who are going to attempt this have a basic idea on how to use ODIN.

1. Download the S5830JPKA7 from samfirmware.com or here. u gotta use this one, not the newer one. Also, download the S5830DXKC1 firmware, not S5830DDKC1 (for u peeps who are challenged in sight, one is DX and the other, DD. we want DX). That's for India. If u download that, might as well just go on with the arabic firmware. It's this one right here.

2. Have Odin 4.38 on stand-by (sure most of u have 'em)

3. Extract the Arabic firmware. Inside, u'll find 5 files. APBOOT, CODE, CSC, KERNEL and MODEM. This is the confusing part for me. but, after taking a daring chance, i inputted these accordingly OPS-OPS, Boot-APBOOT, Phone-MODEM, PDA-CODE, CSC-CSC. btw, OPS is the same OPS used to upgrade to GB (Cooper.ops). KERNEL is NOT used. not used. so don't worry. Run Odin as usual. and just in case, number 3 needs to be done while the phone is in download mode .

4. After Odin gave a pass, u can see the home screen and in settings, the firmware version is back to 2.2.1.

5. Restart ur phone back into download mode. Do not extract S5830DXKC1 firmware, keep it as it is. Input the same OPS used earlier, tick one-package file and input the whole rar file into Odin, and run it.

6. After Odin gave a pass, check on to firmware, and u have ur lovely old laggy full of SOD DXKC1 firmware. Seriously, after tasting GB, froyo does feel sluggish. =D

Please note that I will not bear any risk associated with the above instructions if anything goes wrong with it. Follow the instructions carefully okay?

Cheers!!
