[Tutorial] How to flash Samsung Galaxy Ace S5830 to CodeRom NexusAce XXKPH 2.3.4?

Key Features of CodeRom NexusAce XXKPH 2.3.4:
• A2sd darktremor ready with A2SDGUI (credits to them)
• EXT4 support
• Rooted and Deodexed
• Used custom bootanimation.zip and powersound disabled (update: use nexus S bootanimation)
• Power menu add on: reboot, recovery, download mode (credits to: da_jok3r from 4pda.ru; sk0t and Lovetz)
• Remove some stock apps: SamsungApps, Samsung Stock Clock etc.
• Updated Google Apps & Other: Google Maps, Gmail, Messaging (with theme option), Root explorer, 3 fonts preinstalled (as seen on Galaxy Tab)
• Now with A2SDGUI support
Pre-flashing check list:
• Open KIES and backup your contacts and Bookmarks. (If you have any other app like MYBACK PRO, then you can skip this step)
• Backup your applications using Titanium Backup or any other non-rooted back up apps like App Monster.
• Make sure your phone's battery level is more than 70% before installation.
• Make sure your sdcard was inserted and has been formatted into ext4 partition.
(I am sorry I don’t have time to prepare tutorial to format SD into ext4, once completed. I will place the link here)
Tutorial to flash Samsung Galaxy Ace S5830 to CodeRom NexusAce XXKPH 2.3.4:
• First download CodeRom NexusAce rar file package which contains all the essential firmware flashing tools. Please note that after downloading the rar file, you will have to place the file on desktop and then extract the same. Use below link to download.
*MOD REMOVED* NO WAREZ*
• Check whether extracted folder contains these key files COPPER, APBOOT, MODEM, CODEROMNEXUS, CSC and of course ODIN Multi Downloader v4.38
• Open the Odin Multi downloader v 4.38 file from the extracted files after which you will see that a new window will be popping.
• Now, at this point of time you will have to ensure that the KIES is completely closed and also preferably close all other programs in your computer too so as to ensure that the software update process is not hampered or interrupted in any manner.
• After this you will have to make sure that your phone is turned ON in the download mode, the download mode can be turned ON by pressing Middle Key (OK Key) + Power key and Volume down Key simultaneously before connecting to PC after which the phone will enter in the download mode.
• So, after double checking that the phone has entered in the download mode and connect your phone to your PC, then yellow ID: COM block. Now, next up without changing any other parameters you will have to select the files as they are mentioned below, this is very important step, if any of the file is wrongly entered then you will end up bricking the phone for which we can’t be held responsible in any manner what so ever.
OPS – Cooper_v1.0.ops
BOOT – APBOOT_S5830XXKPH_CL260130_REV03_user_low_true.tar.md5
Phone – MODEM_S5830XXKPH_CL260130_REV03.tar.md5
PDA – coderomnexus.tar.md5 (just ignore error message while inserting this file)
CSC – CSC_S5830SERKPH_CL260130_REV03_user_low_true.tar.md5
• After checking the entries as mentioned above, click on the “Start” tab which is just located above the “Select OPS” option. Please note that as soon as you click on the Start tab it will take 5 – 10 minutes to complete the firmware update process and its highly requested on not to interrupt the process as this may brick your phone permanently.
• You will see that after 5 – 10 minutes of time as mentioned above, the updation process is completed and you will have to wait till you see home screen in your phone and also you will have to watch out for Odin as you will see that a Blue colored box will be glowing up as “PASS”
• Now remove your phone safely from PC and go to settings and Locale to change language.

That's good news.. So many good news (and good ROM) for Ace lately.. We are growing..
Hi Diliban ,
Five Stars for your detailed tutorial , will take some screens and attach it to this post so that it becomes more easier for newbies.
You have stated in you tutorial:-
" Make sure your sdcard was inserted and has been formatted into ext4 partition. "
Is this step really necessary , I have flashed with ROM's before without doing this .
I use ODIN to flash and remove SIM and SD card .
Please clarify ...

Never done this either, altough the only time I flashed my Ace it was the 2.3.3 update. I used ODIN and removed SIM and the SD card aswell. But it's not a custom ROM so I don't know if it really counts...
How can i fix gps problem,i cant switch on my gps with this rom.

Secure folder on Galaxy Tab A - SM-T500

Hello friends! I just purchased a galaxy tab model sm-t500 and I see that the secure folder is not available. Any solution to install?

From official Samsung support:
If your mobile device is rooted or is running a custom ROM, then Secure Folder automatically locks to prevent unauthorized access. If this occurs, you can no longer access data inside Secure Folder.
Maybe your device is or was rooted, or had a custom rom installed?!
