[Q] custom ROM for gt-s5830i

I have bought a galaxy ace and unfortunately it is gt-s5830i which hasn't got any custom roms till now as far as I know isn't there anything that be done to overclock this phone over 832mhz. ickyyy wrote that we can use the roms of galaxy y but it would have some bugs such as camera would not work. ickyyy if you are reading then please help me I can bare some bugs but I am mainly excited to overclock my phone. In one of your posts I found the clockmodrecovery and have backed up my phone please can you suggest me that whether should I use a ROM of galaxy y and if the bugs are too much for me can I restore my phone (as it is my first Android and I have bought it 3 Weeks before and haven't used Odin etc).
Also it would be a great help if you tell me or just give a link to the full and the easiest easiest way of flashing.

My advice is don't risk to flash ROM's for galaxy Y.It has the same hardware,however it's not 100% sure that it won't kill your phone.The display resolution is different.It may be posible that you would be able to flash and run it but it has no point.For overclocking you need a custom kernel which.Flashing a kernel for a different device may be very dangerous as it can kill your phone with no chance of reviving it.Just wait some time and there will be custom roms,kernel and everything for s5830i and you'll be able to overclock it.Many people are currently trying to port some ROMs and developing kernels but there are no good developers for this phone yet so it's very hard and slow...don't rush it!Use the stock rom.Samsung must release a new update to optimize applications and the videocore IV so it should give better FPS on games and etc...

hi ickyyy .
where are DEVs . why they dont work on s5830i ?
there are a lot of people waiting for a custom rom for 5830i !!!!
sorry for my english .

[Root] Samsung galaxy beam I8530

Hey guys im gunna try to keep it short. happen to be browsing thru android Q&A and saw a thread of people trying to get root on a phone so i figured id help em out
luckily sammobile had the stock tar up for it so it was just a matter of grabbing that, unpacking the initramfs. then grabbing kernel source and compiling a rooting kernel.
Kernel
Odin
Drivers
Credits:
Sammobile for having the tar
hallihallo87 for testing my kernel
Like my work? you could always help pay for my daughters college ​

Instructions​
Download the 3 files above
extract odin-1.85.zip
install the drivers
click on pda and select the rooted kernel tar
put your phone into download mode
Download mode is power + volume down + home
once you are in download mode connect via usb
you should see a yellow com pop up in the far left box
click start
congrats
sorry for the vague instructions guys they will improve as time goes on as people who actually have the phone chip in

Works great. Thanks!

Downloadmode is power + volume down + home
Sent from my Sensational phone

Looks great! I'm about to try.Thanks

Works great on my beam. Thanks a lot!!

Rooting successful!
Rooting via Odin with this kernel really ROOT my Galaxy Beam i8530. Kudos to ShabbyPenguin! :good:

Has anyone tried the SIXAXIS tool for PS3 Controllers? it doesn't seem work for me unfortunately.
I've read that the rom probably doesn't have all required bluetooth protocols in order to make it work and that a custom rom like Cyanogen will be required.
Would it be possible to take the Bluetooth Stack from a Cyanogen mod and put it in the Galaxy Beam ROM? Maybe from the Samsung Galaxy S2 Cyanogen Mod as the phone is mostly the same minus the projector.
I doubt there will ever be a Cyanogen Mod project for the Galaxy Beam unfortunately.

glad everyone is having good success with this

We will need to port ClockwordMod, so the cfw will be easier, but i don´t know how to make a dump. I only have a dump from Odin Mobile.
We need to look at "Samsung I9070 Galaxy S Advance" as it is the same phone (without projector) all the specs is the same, not Galaxy S II.
But i can see if i can get it to work tomorrow. I have a Ps3 (3.55 CFW)

I had a look at the Galaxy S Advance and there are no Ice Cream Sandwich releases for it.
I'm also still looking for a way to add usb host mode.

@shabbypenguin Kudos to you !! , you've done awesome. the root is working fine and only thing all us can hope is CWM recovery if you could help us in that it would be amazing, though i am willing to help in development (like beta testing / dumps). hopefully we shall have CWM soon and make use of this awesome phone.

richie

hope soon have custom roms for this projector phone

hi there,
successfully rooted my beam but ever since the focus for the projector doesn't work anymore.
anyone else with this problem or my phone have a hardware problem ?
how can I go back to official kernel please ?
thanks

update:
I installed the latest firmware LH3 from samfirmware.
the focus still didn't work after that so I shook the phone a little bit and it came back to life so I guess it wasn't a software problem.
I'll keep you informed if further development arouse

TWRP?
So.... the guys over at a thread for hacking the i9070 (galaxy s advance):
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1640757
were successfull at embedding TWRP (recovery) into their kernel. Since this phone is very similar to the i8530, i was wondering how risky it would be to flash that kernel on the i8530. If anybody has any knowlege about this, please enlighten me so that I can have a better understanding about the risk i would be taking if i flash my i8530 with the hacked kernel for the i9070. (e.g.. will the difference in screen technology cause any problems? i8530=tft, i9070=super amoled.

I8530XXLH3 Root ?
hey shabby ,
+1 on the request to root I8530XXLH3, i am waiting to flash that build , but hesitant to do so untill root is there......
P.S. : are you familiar with recovery too ? cause we really need custom recovery and at the moment you are the only dev we can look up-to
best regards,
richie

i cant promise anything with cwm, but i suppose i can try but ill need testers. as for rooting new firmwares this kernel should work on all versions of GB, until samsung updates kernel source i cant build a newer kernel.
since i dotn have the phone im not going to bother checking on the device files everyday so if someone could PM when new kernel source comes out ill update my kernel

i have read in the forum somewhere that i9070 guys have successfully integrated TWRP (Team Win recovery project ) recovery in their phones, so probably we can have that one because apart from screen and projector all is same, is it worth the mention ?
http://teamwin.in
regards,
richie

here is a test cwm build i made, please lemme know how/if it works.
if it boots into cwm then dont flash anything, do a backup and let me know the sizes etc of the backup files. would hate for you to brick your phone cuz you wanted to restore a backup etc
www.shabbypenguin.com/OUDstuff/Samsung/Random/Beam/Beam-I8530-Test-CWM.tar
as far as future firmwares are concerned, so long as its GB this rooted kernel should work. when you get an update to ICS i will absolutly have to make a new one for yall. but i cant do so until http://awesomescreenshot.com/0dch109f6 gets updated :/

[Q] Need Help with any Compatible Custom Rom for Measy TV Box

Hi all,
I'm new to the XDA-Dev Forums... and i'm desperate :crying: .
I recently purchased a Measy B4K android TV-Box / Stick. I want to upgrade this to at least android 4.2.2 or 4.3 if possible as it came with 4.1.1, but I cant find any custom roms for this product anywhere. It's supposed to support up to 2160p output, but for some reason even if i set it to a 1080p display setting it still looks like its just upscalling from 720p. Would really like to get a true 1080p kernel on the device.
Is it possible to use a "Generic" 4.2.2 or 4.3 android build? I unfortunately don't have a lot of experience with custom rom builds or installations, but i really want to learn if ANYone can assist I would REALLY appreciate it so so much!

i know this an old thread but i'll answer anyway as we just found some intresting stuff & upgrade that helps a lot
also to be sure it's this a31 device we have and i'm guessing your talking about the same thing : http://www.measy.com.cn/product/showproduct75_en.htm
not a custom rom but we've gotten hold of a developpers 4.2.2 RC3 firmware for measy b4k. We had trouble getting installed but another person found a way to do it. You need phoenixcard 3.09 (http://www.freaktab.com/showthread....S918S-firmware&p=131526&viewfull=1#post131526)
this rom https://alimail.alibaba.com/alimail...eb961&[email protected]
burn the rom as product using phoenixcard, install terminal app, erase nanda then, insert phoenix burned sdcard in measy b4k box, reboot. because the boot is gone (nanda) it will try to boot from sd card and start the firmware upgrade the normal methods using the hidden reco button on the left did not seem to work. but this did, i did as well as someone else.
To give you an idea with original firmware that came with the device i had around 10000 - 11000 antutu score with this dev build firmware i have 19000 antutu score and everything feels a lot smoother & faster.
1st succes upgrade
http://www.freaktab.com/showthread....S918S-firmware&p=132832&viewfull=1#post132832
how to erase nanda on it
http://www.freaktab.com/showthread....S918S-firmware&p=132947&viewfull=1#post132947
do note if you fail at doing something but you erased nanda your device will not boot ! it's a bit risky but worked without a problem with me

Thanks for the info!

Any help would really be appreciated coz it looks like there's no info out there on these prolines. Also do you know whether these models are rebranded and if so, from which make and model? Thanx man :good:

[Completed] Custom Rom for a YEZZ 5.5 M LTE VR

Hello, FDA people.
I've got a YEZZ 5.5 M LTE VR which, in a few words, has disappointed me. I'd like to know just a few things, if you can help me:
- I compared it to a Xiaomi Redmi Note 3, and they're very similar, so I was wondering if I could use a customized ROM for that device (The Xiaomi one. I doubt there are any custom roms for the 5.5M)
- Can I install a customized ROM for a phone that is not the one it was designed for?
- I've already rooted the phone, but I haven't gone any further due to fear of hard brick
- I'm not in a position of buying a new phone at the moment
Any help will be much appreciated.
Thank you in advance.

Hi !
If a device has some similar hardware to another this doesn`t mean that you can flash a rom from one to another , it will brick it , don`t even think about it , do a proper research before proceeding to anything
There is no custom rom available for this device here on xda , you can ask here https://forum.xda-developers.com/android/help but don`t put your hopes to high , not all devices can have a custom rom
Cheers !
