After lowering my DPI, now my phone won't boot up past the first screen. I have been told that a "dirty flash" will help but I have no idea what any of those terms mean so please give me very specific instructions on what to do
tried flashing ROMs? You modified build.prop right? If so, flash a zip that puts a new build.prop inside the system.
How do I flash the rom? Sorry I'm really new to this stuff
Ok so now can somebody please introduce me to a ROM that will actually work and give me a new build.prop because I've tried alot of roms and none of them work :'(
I REALLY need this phone working ASAP and I hear I need to get a new build.prop

It's simple, load a Rom in your sd card, using TWRP do a system format(deletes your whole ROM) and flash the ROM form sd card.
Oh and since you are new to that stuff, here is a recommended rom ->http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1955679 this dude over there explains the whole process well, if you still feel you need help and advice, drop me a pm or something
I'll try that out. I REALLY hope this works...
I'll give thanks if it does
Didn't work
I did all that (but I have no idea what TWRP is so I didn't do that)
and it just said that the installation was aborted (status 7)
I did however notice that it said "confirming that your device is GT-I8160" and that seems to be where the problem started
My phone is: GT-S7560M
Please help

omg...why didn't you mention that earlier...the roms here in this section are for i8160 aka Samsung Galaxy Ace II, your model is Galaxy Ace II x
in that case....I really have no idea..I can't find the stock firmware for this phone anywhere...
Sorry
But I can't find a section on the Ace II X
But anyway is there ANYTHING at all I can do to at least get this fixed???

sorry one more thing im also going to be activating my second line on my sprint account and getting another phone one with a full slide out keyboard and will need to do this with that phone as well .... what phone would be the easiest and best to do so with....
Yes, if you use the wireless / wifi tether app, you're set for tethering.
Also, if you want a theme made, go ask in the themes/apps section, they'll help you out there. I know billbowers does themes for a fact.
Also your root method will depend on the hboot, so check it before you root it, and do NOT any OTAs before you root.
Also, you'll have to do the appropriate root method for the extra phone.
Theres a few roms out there that has all that integrated into the rom and theres themes made already for those roms,heres a few threads that have what you want...

There's only 2 phones with slide-out qwerty keyboards at this time, running Android. The HTC Shift and the Samsung Epic. Shift you would be pseudo familiar with, being from the HTC lineup. Epic on the other hand may be a little different than what you have read so far, especially if the phone is running Gingerbread. Good luck.
thanks for the info and will follow up on the leads you have given very helpful thank you

Sounds like a dirty flash. Did you start a fresh install, wipe everything, prior to installing the new one? If you just flashed over the other build, merging/meshing may occur, but at least it was usable.?

I bought a samsung galaxy ace gt-s5830i a while ago. I tried to root and install CyanogenMod for gt-s5830 on it, but it got bricked ... I fixed it and rooted it(after several bricked times). I installed ClockWorkMod to it aswell (all thx to xda).
Now i wonder if it exist any Mod(s) to gt-s5830i? I have serched on xda, but cant find any ...
TY.
Same thing
Same thing.
I'm exited by CyanogenMod 9.0.0-RC0-GT-S5830-GalaxyICS-KANG-beta5 by Maclaw and waiting for this weekend to try it. Does it support GT-5830i? Somebody knows? (as my mind the answer is "no", 'cuz it different HW )
Device was crushed on CWM installing. Now completely recovered.
Sorry for my english =)
you bricked your phone after rooting and installing a custom rom, with no custom recovery menu? wat.
"Now i wonder if it exist any Mod(s) to gt-s5830i? I have serched on xda, but cant find any ..."
No, cyanogen mod is a rom, and there is loads of roms to flash!
You should of looked at a tutorial!
can somebody comfirm dat CyanogenMod support GT-5830i?
ROMs for 5830 are not supporting s5830i!!Trying to flash them will cause brick!It can be fixed but still no point in bricking your phone..it has different hardware.In fact people are trying to port CM 7.2 RC1 but it has many bugs and we need help to fix them!!
i tried to flash ics for s5830i and it said operation aborted but nothin harmful happened my phone is still the same
Well probably should say that am a noob then

Now, about that partitioning, there is this link; mtk6577gamingrig.blogspot.com/p/how-to-change-your-sd-card-to-phone.html
But I have not tried that partitioning, I rooted my phone just so I could change some things in "build.prop" file, and bootanimation.zip, so that everyone gets the idea that I actually have the original Galaxy S3..
If you succeed in partitioning, leave a comment here.
Also on this blog; mtk6577gamingrig.blogspot.com there are all kind of compatible games for our phone..

Hey man, could you please make SP Flash Tool backup of your ROM, and upload it on http://bitupload.com/ for me so I can fix my cellphone??
Only you can do this becouse you have the same model as I do ..
Here is how you can do it; http://bm-smartphone-reviews.blogspot.pt/2012/04/creating-rom-dump-of-your-mt65x3-device.html
First you will need ADB drivers installed, and MTKdroidTools, you can find all of the files you need here; http://www47.zippyshare.com/v/91738412/file.html and then start ADB Terminal from MTKdroidTools..
Then enter these commands;
---------------
adb shell
cat /proc/mtd > /sdcard/firmware.info
---------------
Then just continiue tutorial from that link,,, anyway... When you are done, it will be around 650 Mb in size, just zip the folder and upload it on http://bitupload.com/
Please man do me this favour.. my phone is dead with out your help, you know I would do the same for you.. :/

glad to hear that's worked for you. CM9 is the most stable for our device. you can try cm10 or cm10.1 if you want to test newer version. it's also run well, but the main problem is our ram. it's to small to handle. so if you want to get performance, stability and battery friendly i suggest you keep CM9.
you should backup first, lol :laugh: nandroid backup for your rom, in case you have to back to stock rom to claim the guarantee. but yeah, you can flash stock rom anyways. there is on sammobile.com
i usually using gobackup to backup sms, contacts, call log, etc. and my contacts always sync to my google account. (i know most people think go app is crap, yeah it is, but this one is working well for simple backup ).
i suggest after installing new rom you install app manually from play store. because different android version usually had different apk build.
Hi to all the devs.
Sorry to bother and hope its in right section.
Today I learned about the I9195i variant and it is running 4.4.4 android and has a beautiful stock UI.
Will it be able to port to other S4 Mini Variants?
It would be great to know it is possible because it is more or less the same phone
Please see screenshots of phone below.

That would be perfect!! It looks amazing and it is 4.4.4!!
Will try and port it for i9190 today. Lets hope I can get it right!! Wish me good luck!
It would be a great alternative has lollipop with white background
The i9195i is not 'more or less the same' as the i9195/0/2.
The processor is different, if someone does try to port it, it will not be easy.
Good luck to all trying to port it!

Try another recovery, besides you shouldn't try. You would have to port EVERY singly apk and framework to work with 4.4.2.

When I was creating(not porting) rom for Galaxy Ace(old times!) the help for me was:
In updater script I marked text from ''assert...'' to first mark(or symbole) '';'' and deleted it. It is possible that there is some lines more, but the text must start from ''mount'' or similiar.
Maybe it can help you, so try and write here in XDA what was the effects!
