Yeah. For NEE by the looks of it.
Obviously as an aussie, you've previously changed your phone's product code to this?
Nothing yet for XSA. (Generic, unbranded Australian model)

Motorola Software Updater, but you have to revert back to 2.51 in order to do the update this way.

i assume, this update is also for hungary?
@adi4motion: make sure you have a fixed 2.2, otherwise you can't downgrade to 2.1 (you will brick the phone!), and you have to flash the sbf via rsdlite!

If the software region on your phone is CEE, this is for you, and you can use Motorola Software Updater as well to flash the new ROM.

BTW: Could anyone provide a deodexed ROM?

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?

You can use Odin and flash a stock firmware for your region from here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1102881

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.

Nah. Just Samsung's funky naming convention. The KG2 Arabic ROM came out before this and is still 2.3.3.

[Tutorial] Flashing Back to Froyo 2.2.1 from Gingerbread

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..
twitter @samfirmware to get more update for Ace..

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!

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.
