Good evening Everyone..
Recently i tried to change the stock rom of my galaxy ace 2 i8160p phone (Kyrillos ROM) and i ended up having a hardbricked phone. Today i got it back from the samsung service center and i can't help wondering if the failure of my device was caused because of the fact that Kyrillos ROM is made for the i8160L model and not for the i8160P model. If that fact is true does anyone know a custom rom for the i8160P model?
If the slight difference between the L and P model (NFC i think) did not cause the failure of the device (motherboard burnt) do you think that it would be wise to try more carefully this time to use Kyrillos ROm which is fantastic as i read on the web?
Thank you in advance...

so you are saying you want roms? try here mate http://forum.xda-developers.com/forumdisplay.php?f=1983&nocache=1&z=9759048468643416
i dont know the difference between the phones you could probably ask the rom developer if it will work for your device
The thing is not even the developer is sure whether his JB ROM is suited for my model,he is sure only that his GB ROM is ok but that is not enough because i want disk encryption provided only in the JB ROMs'
So any help concerning the matte would be highly appreciated.....
I'm in the same boat
Hi VisagenNoir,
I was wondering if you found an answer to your problem, since I also got back my phone from Samsung service as it got bricked after I flashed a custom rom ?

There are in a special thread for S7560/S7560M (Trend and Ace II x are the same phone with different names) here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2019146
I've put in a suggestion to make a master thread called Samsung Galaxy Ace (all models incl. Trend) with a subforum for each model since they are different and incompatible as far as firmware, kernel etc. is concerned. There's not much out there yet, the only one that did a JellyBean (unsupported and buggy) and then a KitKat (4.4) firmware stopped since he switched to another model. I've tried the Kitkat but it's simply not finished and will probably never be unless other people take over and give the Ace 2x/Trend a go since it seems they seem to become very common as they are often sold in great bundles around the world.
My thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2605722
There are root-kits that flashes CWM-recovery while unrooting in a kit.
Even if your (and mine) phone is named Samsung Galaxy Trend you'll need to get used to call it a Galaxy Ace II x. This is the name of the rootkit with CWM-recovery: Galaxy_S_Ace_2_X_Root_kit.rar
And there are some ROMs (Australia and Guatemala versions with higher firmware version numbers) that can be flashed on any Trend/Ace II x since they aren't country locked or something like that.

thanks for your reply man but that thread was posted long time ago i already tried cm11 and cm10.2 for this device but now i manged somehow to fully brick this phone i cant enter in recovery or download mode when i try to turn it on the phone just shows the samsung galaxy trend and shuts down itself...dont know what to do i lost my warranty paper and threw away the box so i dont know what to do
Hmm, if vol up & down & home & power doesn't take you into recovery or vol down+power+home doesn't take you into download I'm not sure there's much you can do without leaving it to someone with a full JTAG-rig that can read and backup your system partitions (esp. the EFS partition that store your IMEI etc.) and reflash it with a stock ROM + stock partitions.

just search here on xda for s7560m galaxy ace 2x almost same phone model but these versions of cm are full of bugs so i'd suggest you to wait until a fully working version is released.

Hello,
Is it possible to use the Galaxy Note N7000 version of the Cyanogenmod for ZTE Blade Q Maxi?
Hardware-wise, the only difference I could see is that the Note has a Cortex A9 and the ZTE has a Cortez A7.
I'm assuming that resolution, screen and camera sizes are irrelevant.
I have rooted the phone and have made a back-up of the current firmware to the card (which is Orange bloatware weighing a massive 1.1GB).
Any answers would be greatly appreciated.

I think it's impossible, why don't you search for a custom rom and kernel that are built specially for your device?

yeah they are still very different phones, same with OEM, Samsung is not ZTE they have different bootloaders and such and would brick your phone if you flashed that.

Damn...I thought it was just like on the PC
@Ferris Cruiser : As far as custom ROMs for it go, there aren't any at the moment.
Stock Android 4.2.2 has about 450MB. The back-up made with CWM to the zip card is...drum-roll please...1.5GB, because Orange bloatware. I didn't install any apps except something to root it and CWM.
Can I just flash stock Android 4.2.2 on it? I mean, the Google Nexus 4 ROM. Or would that brick it too?
I'm searching for something, anything, any Android version that might work for it because in the Orange branded version you don't have :
Options for calls/keyboard/home-screens etc. It's very very limited.

flashing any rom that is not ment for your phone will brick it, this goes for almost every devices. there are a few phones suck as the (t-mobile)T989 Galaxy s2 and skyrocket galaxy s2 (at&t) are able to flash each others roms with a mod i think, i have yet to try to flash one of their roms. it looks like your phone has almost about stock android, with a new keyboard or a new launcher. got a perfect status bar already. other than that it should look like a nexus 4.

I understand now, thank you very much for your help.
I've done some late-late-night research and was unable to even install Clockwork Mod on it, it still has the basic Android system recover (3e) from Orange.
I will keep on searching for a way to install recovery on it and flash it. The phone is good, the firmware ruins it.
So thank you all once again for your help.
Love&Peace!

Hi, you will be fine as long as any ROM/Kernel you flash is built using a stable ICS ROM/Kernel as it was only in the pre-release versions which caused the super brick bug. And don't worry at all about JB the issue was long gone by that stage
