...i am now using a stock rom//
asian region,it's a singapore one
it is working quite fast...and i rooted it with universal gb,..but still BT not working/also wifi and sensor is still mixed up,LOL..but what to do,i'm just a noobie about tinkering with android,all i can do is re-flash and re-flash,i already tried almost all the roms i can get hold of,but still no luck:crying:
and btw camera, when you use it after taking a shot,...and view it in re-view its also upside down:laugh:
if you can tweak a rom,any rom as long as it will work ok,(bcause this gio is a very good HW.) for us korean gio users it will be a big help man...and am willing to try it.
yes, but I need to have a korean rom, wich has the working wifi,sensors and bluetooth, so I can modify the s5660 roms to work on your korean version, but I need a working rom for your device..
if you can give me that, I can modify it..
website for samsung firmware
....oh ok but,i can only point you the website for that,and that will be <samsung open source release center>,that is also where i DL the stock rom for korean gio shw m290k w/c idont know what kind of file format it is ,because i cant flash it using odin 4.4 for gio,is it ok?im sorry because i dont know if i could upload it somewhere?...is it enough,to show you only where you can DL it?the stock korean firmware i mean...or i need to do something else?
BTW, is it possible that i can use Odin 1.7 for Android and flash that stock korean rom for SHW M290k gio the same way as flashing rom and kernel to a galaxy s?
how did you download the file?
when I press the button nothing happends
edit: got it, downloading now..
worked on chrome
odin3 v1.7 [android+slp]
.....can we use thi 0din? for flashing this shw-m290k-GIO_HOME-TH25-REVO3-user file to gio?btw this is the file w/c i managed to DL from samsung opensource site man.
OH i'm sorry this is not the one i DL from samsung,my mistake,it came fro another guy here in another shw m290 thread....
the FW i DL from samsung source is a Froyo
and an update for Gingerbread.
@voetbalremco..goodluck with the porting man!,will wait and try it.

i have already tried this firmware from samdroid, downloaded and flashed it,this is not a stock korean firmware ithink,because after i flashed it and did the factory reset and boot up,it rolled back to its original language i think is like russian,still used it and tried but BT?wifi/sensors are not working....from this M290K s5660XXKTK
..this psyhoplus file is ok ithink original stock but i cant flash it using odin 4.42,i tried to put it in one packaged to odin but odin cant read the file,but if you extract it,ibecame a different file so odin cant read it either....maybe if you could have odin read the file, i can flash it to my gio. i dont know how you call the file that is flashable using odin,tar?zip? explain it please.
Did you followed the tutorial??
Its also in korean

Just use the one for your region or country. For example, o used baltic. Hardly possible to find operator specific, since its upto operator to update it and leak it

lol.
not every firmware available is leaked.
some are spread out via kies, and can be taken from the kies servers I guess, but that's not really leaking. samsung would have a big hole if every firmware on sammobile is leaked. some are, for example the soon releases of android 4.0 for the galaxy s2, but not for our gio's..
Thats not what I ment. I mean operator specific firmwares are not very common. IMO. And they don't really tend to release them other way, but with new phones. Marketing IMO.

Download the firmware from sammobile.com (requires signup) and choose your firmware e.g if you live in Australia and your carrier is Vodafone, choose 9Phone model)-Australia-Vodafone

Well, the closest you can get is probably the SGS II Rom from MatZ69.
That guy did a good job with the skinning.
Has anyone figured out how to make a i8160P still a P after returning to stock GB. Any time I've tried to flash the original firmware the phone remains a regular i8160 and states that a custom power management has been installed. The NFC works but the device has no IMEI and insists at boot and in the device menu it is an i8160.
I don't think it is possible after you have flashed i8160 firmware
I've tried various different things but to no avail. It is a shame about my impatience. Especially considering the Germany i8160P, which is the one I have, has gotten the Jelly Bean update first. :silly:

Use I8160P GB SER ( include Pit File, ussualy) and then back to stock Germany GB for I8160P, and flash the new one...
If it doesn't work...
Go to your Samsung Service Center..

Sadly that first step doesn't work. It throws up the Custom Power Management Error and you loose your IMEI. Samsung won't deal with it since the device was not available in my region.

As far as I know the is no SER (RUS) version of 8160P available only 8160...
Tried this also with the RUS 8160 GB to get back 8160P. But didn't work....

2 - install the last firmware before updated to jelly bean for your model
3 - reset your phone

This does not apply for 8160P (Ace 2 with NFC)... best case, you will have to flash back to MB2/MB4/MC8... mid case no modem/IMEI (no NFC, 3G, etc.)... worst case: brick! Do NOT attempt if you have 8160P!
I tried this, to regain NFC and to be able to flash JB ME1, but when trying to flash GB for 8160P over the Russian rom I got custom modem. Immediatly flashed back to MB2, stuck there now (MC8 is horrible!)

If you manage to install GB for 8160P w/o losing your IMEI, tell me how you did it... but probably you will encounter CUSTOM MODEM errors when flashing original 8160P fw (after having flashed SER for 8160)
You need a complete firmware.
The problem its I8160XXMB4. This Firmware include Bootloader, new memory management, ipl...
Once you have instaled mb4, your phone will be a "true" i8160 until you can flash a complete i8160p firmware, and in this moment, i believe that dont exit any complet i860p firmware, so You can still update your ace with any i8160 uptade, but not more i8160p, until some new "complete packaged" will be leak of course.
Could someone with a P that hasn't been flashed update a full firmware dump?
Should be "easy".
You need a i8160p rooted and some linux knowledge
The "only" problems are:
1º. You need to know the path to block files, normally they are in /dev/block
2º. You need to suppose that block are each partition (system, userdata, sdcard, modem, bootloader, sbl, cache...)
3º. You need a SD card with enough free space
Once you have all, should be "easy" dump each partition:
dd if=/dev/block/blockxxx of=/sdcard/bootloader.raw
dd if=/dev/block/blockxxy of=/sdcard/system.raw
...
where blockxxx should be each block device
But even when you can obtain all partitions and you can identify them, you still need create a firmware with them or flash some of them on other devices, with the correspondence risk and privacy problem form the dump owner... well, the owner could of course delete userdata, sdcard, efs... partitions

I had it with 6xx MB ram... but I wanted an unbranded fw. Would love italian job, but e.g. the SMS app from android 4.2 sucks on the small screen, and some other things. Or does smb have the whole ME1 stock apps? Then I could flash them to MC8 italian job

Hello, I have a mother-in-law problem... so I guess you understand my cry for help.
I recently updated her Galaxy Ace 2 (GT-I8160) from 2.3.6 to 4.1.2
Something I shouldn't have done, considering the device being very slow after the update.
So now I am trying to find the old 2.3.6 firmware again, specifically for the Netherlands (XEN).
I have search pretty much everywhere on the web, but only find dead hotfile links that work no more.
I hope anyone still has the stock rom on their computer!

Vino Kulafu, would you mind checking whether the CM 10.1 ROM also has the language option for Dutch (="Nederlands")?
AFAIK all stock ROMs have all Latin-based languages, only a few stocks support Arabic fonts, Cyanogenmod has (at least) Latin+Japanese+Chinese
