1. Download attached file and copy it to your sdcard
2. Run in maintenance mode (power + middle button)
3. Update from sdcard, select the file upd_1.zip.
4. After the update completed - reboot in normal mode.

Thats all - now you have rooted ace with android 2.3.3, and superuser in your apps.

1. Is it works for 2.2.1
2. Only Rooting a phone wipes all data(apps, docs, memos, contacts etc) ?

there are no files for me to choose, and the yellow words said " E: failed to mount/ sdcard (no such file or directory).....who can help me...?
 
Hi guys,

I've been using my s5830 for four days now after flashing it from Froyo to Gingerbread 2.3.4

Do anyone experience about 1.5 sec response before the unlock screen appears?

And also, I experience setting the phone in Vibrate / Silent, but when I receive an SMS message, the message alert tone goes off and the phone is not on silent mode anymore.

Is there any fix for this? Or do I just have my setting wrong?

Note:
I rooted my phone and set an mp3 file as message alert tone

Anyone any ideas?

hi every one

i am on the official 2.3.4 gingerbread with galaxy ace , can i use this method to root my phone ?

im w8 for yourhelp
 
I just got my new Galaxy Ace which came directly with Andoird 2.3.3.
I can say it is one of the most disappointing products that I purchased.
The phone looks great and I was glad that it had already 2.3.3 on it as specs said 2.2. It moves nice and also good interface both hard and software.

BUT I COULD NOT USE THE PHONE FOR MORE THEN 2-3 MINUTES CONTINOUSLY.

It resets and blocks and hangs when using the most basic and simple operations. When put to charge I can it shuts down after a while and I can started only after removing and puting back the battery.

I'm rather now in opinion that quality assurance of Samsung is null. I had last year again a new phone from Samsung and it came with the camera not working from factory.

Can anyone confirm similar problems with Galaxy Ace?
 
@Jorjeus - No problems with mine, but if it's a new phone as you say, why have you not returned it for another one as it's obviously faulty?

No - your ace is F***ED take it back and get it changed for a non-broken one. All phone makers have problems. I know countless people that have had dodgy HTC,Iphones etc.
 
Of course I returned the phone. I bought it online so it will take some time until it is solved. My fear was that this can be a sofware issue. If it is then the entire stock from the vendor it may be the same.
 
hello ppl !!

i would like to root my Samsung Galaxy Ace with that way but i would like to know if i want after to UNROOT my device how can i do it ?
