[Tutorial] Flashing Back to Froyo 2.2.1 from Gingerbread - Galaxy Ace S5830 Android Development

Hello XDA Forumer,
If you are a little crazy like me who is having fun playing around with your Samsung Galaxy Ace, then you've thought of going back to froyo as well after applying 2.3.4 (Gingerbread) or any ROM.
Here's the tutorial: http://s.chinoyray.com/groups/samsu...lashing-back-to-froyo-2-2-1-from-gingerbread/

Yeaahh me too just flash back to froyo.. Wanna feel to get official gingerbread release maybe this upcoming month..

Still no available update.

and other method if you want to back stock froyo
download S5830XWKB7 MULTI-CSC-OXXKB6 2.2.1 @ samfirmware.com,
flash it succesfully and then open your ace, now "call" *#272*YOUR-IMEI#
and change CSC correct (in Finland we use NEE), now you can get updates over kies!

How did you get KPL over KIES in the Philippines?
Edit. nevermind. NEE is not from the Philippines.

For those in Philippines: SMA = Smart, GLB = Globe, XTE = Sun, XTC = multiple.

When CM7 comes do we have to flash back to froyo or we can easily switch from our custom ROMs based on xxkph to CM7?

love this post bro..
salamat..malaking tulong to sa mga kababayan nten..lalo na sa mga ace users..
is it also applicable when the phone was bricked while upgrading firm?
i didnt tried upgrading..but just want to know if it can be a remedy if someone messed up while upgrading..

A bricked phone means even if you press POWER+HOME button or POWER+HOME+VOLUME DOWN and nothing happened even if your phone is fully charged, then that is bricked. If it's bricked, you cannot do anything to your phone now. Say bye bye to it.
BUT
If you press POWER+HOME or POWER+HOME+VOLUME DOWN buttons and your phone went to recovery or download mode, then it is not bricked and you can just reflash any firmware you want to restore. Upgrade, downgrade, it's all up to you.

No need to flash back to froyo. In theory, you can move to a Custom ROM based on the dev's requirement. (XXKPH for Gingerreal as an example)

What is the original firmware for the Netherlands?

unable to check for firmware update thru kies
Hello,
I'm from Malaysia. I've successfully downgraded my phone from gingerbread KPH to froyo DXKC1. When I connect my phone to KIES, it says that this firmware cannot be upgraded. May I know what am I missing here? I was hoping to check for official firmware upgrade thru KIES.

SEA ginger isn't listed on KIES, yet. but you can call your local SSC and ask them about ginger upgrade. most of them already have new SEA ginger (well atleast in indonesia).
try re-flasing (please make sure that you use full package / complete file.
i've tried once, from KPH (blackhawk rom), to DXKC1, succeed, kies can detect my phone normally and chek for update.
i got a case of bad luck though. earlier today. bricked my ace from going from fla.shX2.2 to DXKC1 (the same file i use previously)

You must install csc for your country. *#272*imei#
Then select your csc and click install. Of course this only works is you flashed a multi csc with your country in it.

Go to samfirmware and download INDIAN 2.2 Froyo I9000DDJP6, its a single file, so no need of pit or anything, just flash it with that single file and connect to kies.

I think spoofing the current fw to ddjp6 should also work.
I havent tried the spoofing method myself beacuse I will be flashing directly with the 2.3.3 indian version using odin.
If anyone is trying spoofing method, please let us know how you did it.
1. battery issue present in this ROM too ?
2. Hindi fonts ?

Hey!
So for those who have flashed using Odin, did you'll repartition? and have you'll changed bootloaders?

Rolling back Software

Hi,
i Currently have Andriod 2.3.3 on My Phone with CF-Root on with Also Installed ClockWorkMod.
I Plan on Rolling back to 2.2.1 to test something
If I Spoofed the Device using spoofw and Choosed a Different device Code and re-flashed with Kies.
Would This Work without any issues?

Looking at that Thread you have Linked me to there appears to be Several Links for Europe , Does it Matter Which one I Download(aslong its a Europe one) - Im' In the UK

If you want official Froyo 2.2.1 for UK then flash XXJPY.
Flash with no pit and no re-partition after disabling any lagfix if enabled...and you will be fine.

XXJVO is the official 2.3.3 for UK, it's there too.
You needed a Foryo for your phone, I suggested the Froyo firmware according to your need.
Remember to use a firmware with a boot image prior gingerbread. I don't know exactly which one to use though. Maybe someone else can answer.

New Firmware for Philippines DXLP8

20MB OTA update for DXLP7, kernel dated oct 31. might be just bug fixes .... biggest plus is that root from dxlp7 was retained.

you cannot flash stock firmware using CWM..
download stock fw from samfirmware.com, copy it to your sdcard, and use mobile odin pro to update...
you may also do that on your pc via Odin.exe

sammobile lists xtc as Sun but xtc is the generic firmware found in the samsung stores
Can someone tell this as the Wifi on P6800DXLP8? Fix the problem of drop? Or continues at the same bug?
hongkong is not included in the list of countries for the latest update..i believe that hk fw is the one with wifi problem only
never had any issues regarding that, i just make sure to have a full flash and clear data with cwm
you could download other fw like malaysia because philippines is included if you click Info
i don't use firmwares with included carrier because they contain unnecessary apps

Yes, this rom fixes the ics wifi bug !
Any other changes in the rom? If the only change is fixed wifi, then it's better for me to stay on current rom.

What is the latest UK Unbranded firmware

What is currently the latest UK I9505 firmware at the moment. I have I9505XXUAMDM, but see I9505XXUBMGA floating around being the latest UK firmware, but I don't see it in Kies or OTA.
Thanks

Hi,
MDM is really quite old now.
If you have not got the option to OTA upgrade,you might consider the Pre-rooted ROM
You still remain "Official".

Best thing to do imho is uninstall Kies (except the drivers) and flash whatever unbranded Euro rom you want with Odin 3.04. See www.sammobile.com/firmware/1 for available roms.
Thanks, think I'll flash with odin

The latest German unbranded DBT MGA rom is very good, running it myself :good:
Im on Vodafone UK and my phone was still MDM without any kies updates. but had issue with sd slot so sent for repair it came back with MEA which defaults of Korean or something.
I think this is the latest uk Firmware I9505XXUBMGA i flashed it in odin cos kies dont like me lol
i have it in dropbox if u need it quick
I could do with MGA as well please. I'm still stuck on MDM.
