[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.

[GUIDE/TUTORIAL/HOWTO] Samsung Galaxy S GT-I9000 Any version to Android 6

[GUIDE/TUTORIAL] Samsung Galaxy S GT-i9000 Any version to Android 6
[GUIDE/TUTORIAL/HOWTO] Samsung Galaxy S (GT-I9000 galaxysmtd) stock to Android 6 Marshmallow
This detailed step-by-step guide helps you transform your Samsung Galaxy S I9000 to a more recent one with Android 6.
Make sure your phone is i9000 before going further: when you Power on phone, it is written Galaxy S.
and Go to Settings > About phone > Model number is GT-I9000.
### If Model number is not GT-I9000, quit this tutorial.
Check Android version: right below Model number, you have Firmware version.
If Android is 2.2 or below, follow this tutorial entirely.
If Android is 2.3.x, you can skip step 3)
Back to top of the same About phone menu: tap on System updates to check for an official update.
CHANGELOG OF TUTORIAL
v2. Minor improvements. Bought another i9000 to try whole tutorial again.
v1. Initial release
1) DOWNLOAD
### All you need to upgrade to Android 6 is in my pack. However, Android versions above 4.4 are very slow on Galaxy S (unusable for calls and messages)
### You can easily try Android 5.1.1 and 6.0.1 and come back to 4.4 though.
- djibe Galaxy S i9000 pack (803 MB) v1 : https://bit.ly/djibe-galaxys-pack
(contains Samsung USB drivers + Odin 1.83 + Pit file 512 + Android 2.3.6 GT_I9000_XWJW5_XXJW4_OXXJVC_Sbl + Root CF-Root-XX_OXA_JW4-v4.4-CWM3RFS
+ lineage-11-20170406-UNOFFICIAL-galaxysmtd + omni-5.1.1-20160414-galaxysmtd-HOMEMADE + Full+Advance-6.0.1-20160919-galaxysmtd-Final).
Official LineageOS 11 thread: https://forum.xda-developers.com/t/rom-4-4-4-lineageos.3589037/
- ROM. Full Advance 6.0.1 for galaxysmtd (build 20160919). Included in my pack.

Recommended - OpenGApps ARM 4.4 pico: https://opengapps.org/?arch=arm&api=4.4&variant=pico
- Charge phone to 100%
2) DESIMLOCK/DEBRAND/UNLOCK i9000
First, we want to make sure phone is not locked.
On your phone, open the dialer (as if you wanted to call a phone number) and type these keys:
Code:
*#7465625#
Phone returns this message:
Network Lock
[ON]
Follow my tutorial here before going further: https://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-s-i9000/general/guide-tutorial-howto-unlock-debrand-t4053109
If Network Lock is [OFF]. Go to next chapter.
3) BACKUP DATA
Install Samsung drivers (you unzipped earlier).
Then plug phone to PC in File transfer mode.
Collect all .jpg or .mp4 (particularly in DCIM folder).
Make sure your Google Account is synchronised.
Use an app like Backupyourmobile or SMS Backup & Restore to backup texts, contacts, etc.
Check that backup is located on microSD card.
Then copy the backup on your PC.
4) FLASH LATEST STOCK ANDROID 2.3.6 GINGERBREAD
### This step is only required if your phone is blocked on Android 2.1 Eclair or 2.2 Froyo (no more recent official update).
If you are already on 2.3.x Gingerbread, move on to next chapter.
You will lose all the data stored on phone.
Shutdown phone.
Boot phone in Download mode: Hold buttons Power + Menu + Volume down until Droid logi is shown and release the buttons.
You see a Droid logo with "Downloading... Do not turn off Target!!!" message (video here if my explanation isn't clear:
)
On PC, launch Odin with Administrator privileges (you unziped it from my pack, in the Flash folder). Select Odin.exe > right click > Run as administrator
In Odin's main window, check all 3 checkboxes: Re-Partition, Auto Reboot, F. Reset Time. Leave other checkboxes unchecked.
### Select PDA, PHONE and CSC files from the GT_I9000_XWJW5_XXJW4_OXXJVC_Sbl folder of my pack.
In PIT > select s1_odin_20100512.pit file

Hi, does it work? Am I the first here, where are the others?
---------- Post added at 07:27 PM ---------- Previous post was at 07:20 PM ----------
Why is it necessary to install Android 5 bevor Android 6 ?

Hi,
seems clear enough to have 0 reactions
Yes you have to move forward slowly and install versions on top.
I would stick to 4.4 though (for fluidity)

I tried this way, and it seems to work. What do You think about?

Hi Chris,
I bought another stock and simlocked SGS to test again.
Whole tutorial went on very easily.
Especially when you know that going above Android 4.4 is crazy.

Wonderful tutorial! Pulled out my old phone and it’s happily running 4.4!! Now if I could get Magisk to figure out how to work with this, then I would be overjoyed.

I already have the flushable .zip — here is the message I am getting (ignore the /data thing - that was resolved - message happens anyway)
Also here is a picture of what I get with SuperSU flushable from ChainFire in case that helps anyone figure out what’s up.

Yes I think the phone has a weird boot sequence and cannot be flashed like this. Sorry I don't have time to look into it.
Somewhere on XDA ?

That is actually very well explained. If, like me, you only have Linux and can't use Odin, you can extract zimage from CF-Root-XX_OXA_JW4-v4.4-CWM3RFS.tar and use heimdall to flash:
heimdall flash --KERNEL ./zImage --no-reboot

can we install any newer custom ROM above android 7?

[GUIDE/TUTORIAL/HOWTO] LG G3 D855 Stock to Android 11

[GUIDE/TUTORIAL/HOWTO] LG G3 D855 Stock to Android 11
[GUIDE/TUTORIAL/HOWTO] LG G3 LG-D855 (Unlocked/Europe) Stock to Android 11 R/LineageOS 18.1 with all files included, Netflix and Disney+ working
This detailed step-by-step guide helps you transform your LG G3 D855 to a powerful one with Android 11.
I wrote it because what I read was incomplete or outdated.
Make sure your phone is compatible LG G3. In Android, go to Settings > General > About phone > Hardware info > Model number is LG-D855.
If not, quit this tutorial.
### I'll make a few comments like this, PLEASE READ THEM !
### WARNING. DO NOT CHECK FOR ANDROID UPDATES (we'll see this later).
CHANGELOG
v3. Use Netflix and Disney+ in SD
v2. Fix the link to download Android 5 firmware
v1. Initial release for Android 11
1) DOWNLOAD
- djibe LG G3 d855 pack: https://bit.ly/djibe-lgg3-d855-pack
(contains LG USB drivers + LGUP + KingoRoot4.8.apk + b007.autorecd855_2015-04-16.apk + Quick Reboot ROOT.apk + TWRP Recovery 3.5.2_9-0-d855 + Magisk root).
Unzip files.
- ROM LineageOS 18.1 Official: https://forum.xda-developers.com/t/...s990-vs985-lineageos-18-1-31-03-2021.4205475/

Check that backup is located on microSD card.
Then copy the backup on your PC.
Go to Settings > General > About phone > Status > IMEI.
Note and save EMEI (15 digits, just in case) !
3) ANDROID VERSION
Go to Settings > General > About phone > Software info > Android version.
- Android version is 6.0: bad news, we have to downgrade it.
Latest MarshMallow (Android 6) updates have closed the root opportunities.
- Android version is 5.0: cool, see you at chapter 5.
4) DOWNGRADE LG G3 TO ANDROID 5 LOLLIPOP
### Many thanks to shakeyabooti: https://forum.xda-developers.com/t/...mp-tot-method-with-lgup.2785089/post-64624353

Hi jason, glad you liked it !

Thanks works perfect! Just the mic that wont work on whatsapp, but its ok.

I have a LG-G3 D855 Europe version with 16GB internal storage and 2GB RAM
I read that the main camera doesn't work on the D855 (European version), is that correct?
What else doesn't work when Android 11 is on it?
I have a LG-G3 D855 Euro version with 16GB of internal storage and 2GB of RAM.
At the moment I have Fulmix ROM 6.9 installed (is Android Marshmallow 6) and thus also rooted.
So I could then install the new TWRP 3.5 and then the ROM Lineage OS 18.1 afterwards, proceed as described or do I have to pay attention to something else?
Thanks for the hints and tips

Installed... no WLAN on my LG G3 D855 with Lineage 18.1
Ok, now I've set everything up successfully, on my almost 7-year-old LG-G3-D855 with only 32 GB of memory and still a poor 32-bit device.
The WLAN settings required that I had to switch the WLAN encryption to WPA2 CWP on the AVM Fritzbox 6660 Cabe.
It's sad that such an Android 11 as Lineage 18.1 doesn't get along with normal settings in the Fritzbox as WPA2/WPA3. Didn't the developers pay attention again? something like that is allowed with Android 11 !!! not happen.
Even my old Fulmics 6.9 ROM could work perfectly with the Fritzbox 6660 Frotz OS 7.29 in 2.4 and 5 GHz mode, only Lineage 18.1 can't do anything with it. Already very sad.
But ok, I solved the problem and now the front and rear cameras work as well. I still have to look for an icon pack for the surface, the normal icons look terrible!

Glad you did it.
I don't remember having troubles with Camera.
I can't help about this AVM Fritzbox 6660 Cabe thing. I don't know this.

Hello friend, I have installed this ROM, but testing it, I verify that it does not record video. I have tried other apps such as Open Camera or even the LG Camera apk and the same problem still does not record video. At first I even did a factory reset to see but it still can't record video, do you know any solution or is it because it's the latest version of official Lineage OS that I flashed, what version does the video camera work with? Thank you.

I had Fulmix 8 and proceed this tutorial and it went well. I wanted Lineage because with Android 6 there are many apps that no longer run. The problem with Lineage OS is that the video camera does not record.

Tap on the "Build number" entry seven times. You are notified that developer settings are now active.
Go to Settings > System > Developer options,
Set Windows animation to 0, Transition animation and transition scales to x 0,5.

Hi, there doesn't seem to be anything named Magisk Root within the download zip. Is it missing or am I missing something?

Thanks. What do you do with Magisk after copying it to the external memory as it isn't mentioned in any other steps?
I have managed to follow all other steps and have it running with android 8.1 however Disney+ and Netflix do not work as I believe they see the tablet as rooted and don't like it. I have tried a few Disney+ install work arounds but still doesn't work. Do you have any ideas? Cheers

Hi, may I ask where I can get the 7.1 ROM for my P3100?
Thank you very much! (my dad loves using old stuffs, but he wants GPS for some reasons)

Hi All,
Thanks for the tuto.
During the process, at point 6 for the zip files.

ua_expresso*.zip installed but not BiTGApp.
The tablets works fine but without browser etc.
i tried to install again from Odin but it doens't come to TRW. The tablet restarts with ANDROID.
Thanks for any help,
Cheers,

GPS works in 8.1 rom tho

Hi,
Thanks Djibe89 and TheDoctor46.
I am wondering if files put on the sdcard from the first install could avoid right install of BiTGApp 8.1 ?
it's quite weird, i have no sound.
i could install a browser from playstore.
well, i'll try both OpenGapps and deltadroid.

Not it should not affect installation as thats what everyone does. Maybe a problem of BiTGapps?? (I have never tried them)

Well, Oreo is Android 8.1 so you have to download 8.1 GApps: https://github.com/BiTGApps/BiTGApp...wnload/v1.7/BiTGApps-arm-8.1.0-R45_signed.zip
Clean wipe and flash ROM + GAPPS

You can't flash arm64 gapps on arm (v7) device and expect it to work.
