Got my Ace last week and already considering rooting it (crappy internal memory).. Anyone got the latest rooting tutorial? Or the one in 1st page is still ok for rooting?

QUOTE(hypermount @ Jul 14 2011, 10:48 PM) Hey guys any idea how to recover a bricked SGA. After flash CWM in ROM Manager - the phone became dead....cant reboot into recovery anymore. Walao.. After so many post, still someone brick it using ROM manager.. ROM manager,as im posting this, doesnt have CWM yet.. U just need to flash the zip file from XDA [only works for 2.3.3/2.3.4] in recovery mode.. I suggest u make up a strong story about how u just trying to reset factory setting and suddenly phone cant turn on, and send it to warranty..

QUOTE(huatty @ Jul 15 2011, 10:58 AM) because...normally for new comer, they will not read all 100+ pages from this thread, the easy way is, read the 1st page, the 1st page got a lot of useful information to setup our SGA, BUT.......ROM Manager also 1 of the recommend backup tool in 1st page, i already PM the owner of this thread, but he still not respond yet......so sad.. Well someone should step up and make a V3 thread then.. Anyone? A lot of changes now.. New ROM coming up, already got CWM.. With gingerbread update coming soon (i dont really bet on it, last time rumours end of july, now i heard end of september), maybe many dev will be interested in Galaxy Ace..

QUOTE(mynewuser @ Jul 17 2011, 06:57 PM) That one is for 2.3.3. Some website say 2.3.4 back to 2.2.1 will brick the phone. Is it correct? http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread...1116517&page=46Only if u flash with one package from Samfirmware using Odin. U need to flash it with full package first (S5830ZSKA6), then after that, flash it again using one package according to Malaysia version (mine is S5830DXKC1)...

QUOTE(Optimus2x @ Jul 18 2011, 08:53 AM) 2.2.1 won't brick your phone, I've converted it back successfully as well. Added on July 18, 2011, 8:55 amSearch in the market for an app called setDNS, you need to root your device though. Happy viewing xhamster, filestube and other banned sites I still wish there was an OC-able kernel, the device lags on angry birds U've converted your phone using one package directly? The only hope for OC kernel suppose to be with Villain ROM.. but i dont see any hope in development..

QUOTE(gkl83 @ Jul 18 2011, 03:11 PM) as the common issues of SGA, switch on WIFI for long will cause the hang/SOD (screen of death) as my understand from SGA users here is due to SGA switch to other location while u switched on wifi... so far i dont have hang issues as i wont switch SGA for long and i stationary at the same location when switch on wifi... Im not sure about that.. I got a totally random SOD.. Once because i forgot to switch off wifi when i go to sleep.. The other 2 i got after taking call while browsing.. 2 of em at home and 1 at the office.. Both of which i stay at the same location.. Some ppl even got once a day SOD..

QUOTE(gkl83 @ Jul 18 2011, 03:38 PM) perhaps try to switch off wifi tonight see have any any differences or not... I always switch off wifi when not using.. Last SOD i got is around last week.. On wifi around 2 hours, after taking calls, blank.. Haha! But bcoz it only happen once in a while, not really a big prob for me This post has been edited by izzoe: Jul 18 2011, 03:43 PM

QUOTE(gkl83 @ Jul 19 2011, 11:12 AM) i think the aftermarket back cover should available in malaysia... hence SGA quite common everywhere, i think wont difficult for u to get the spare part for SGA...  Yep.. Very popular nowadays.. Many dealer are pushing ACE as budget phone.. But sadly we still considered a legacy device on XDA forum.. Which leads to lack of developer for custom roms..

QUOTE(kiien_kyan @ Jul 21 2011, 10:34 AM) Can SGA support GB? cos some said it will make it lag more frequent than Froyo~ Lol.. That's not true bcoz the reason for GB release is for a more smooth and stabilize Android.. Even a 600MHZ cpu with 256RAM (Ideos X3) can support GB.. QUOTE(Dannyl @ Jul 21 2011, 02:42 PM) Who said that? Nobody knows. You should plug-in your Ace to Kies and check once in a while. I'm checking in this thread and once someone announces it, I'm going to update mine. http://www.gsmarena.com/samsung_starts_rol...e-news-2896.phpFollow Samfirmware on Twitter. They're the one with the latest update on samsung..
