Yes, you can install Gingerbread based Custom ROMs like CM7.2 or Modified Stock ROMs through recovery. For Eg:-

You can install that modified stock ROM. It looks exactly same as a stock 2.3.6. When I sold my device it had CM7.2 on it and the shopkeeper was very impressed by its features compared to stock. So I don't think they will really look into it, even if you are on stock or custom ROM. Actually many shopkeepers don't even know what a custom ROM is. Anyways its all your choice but I don't think Odin could work without USB. How about Mobile Odin by Chainfire? I'm not sure whether it is supported by Gio.

Thank you but i have USB and i can connect the phone to PC but in Odin when i click start tells me to connect the devide.
P.S.: sorry for my bad english! I think you understand what I mean!

Make sure u have installed USB driver for your phone.
And the correct Odin version (4.42)
U need to connect PC with your phone in download mode.

I have USB drivers installed and i have Odin 4.42 and i connect the phone in download mode but still doesn't work.
Does your USB cable works with other devices?
If it is does, then your phone's USB port is damage.

As you are getting Galaxy Gio splash screen, its just a soft brick. Make sure you've installed Samsung Kies and make sure its not running in background (Check the Taskbar systray) while you run Odin. Download the firmware from sammobile.com and install as mentioned in Tutorial (You may find it in the Galaxy Gio section)
Dont use the pit its from later galaxy models
Make sure u flash galaxy gio FW and look for the guides in thr GIO section

Soft bricked Gio
I rooted my gio with the gio rooting package and tried to flash cwm recovery. Unfortunatlely I forgot to reset and uncheck re-partition and now my phone gives me the Phone---!----computer logo when I boot. (soft brick I think) Even though I have kies, it now does not recognise my phone, and nor does odin. In addition, I need the 2.3.6 Gingerbread NZ stock rom from 2degrees, yet I cannot find it on any of the sites I visit. I can get into download mode but not recovery... can anyone help? Any help will be appreciated, if it is possible to fix my phone

My phone is now repaired, considering update.zip for 2.3.5. I will like to know if the recovery mentioned above requires a custom kernel- is it necessary? BTW I am not using Rom manager.

Does not require a custom-kernel.
upgrade to 2.3.6 and install this cwm.

Maybe You Have A Hardware (Antenna) Problem, Not A Software (Baseband) Problem
All Custom ROMs Use EXT4 Filesystem
BTW Its AOSP. Not ASOP :silly:

No... There was no water damage, only 1 drop 2 years ago which the phone survived. It was from knee height. I flashed the S5660KKT3 baseband through Odin. Is it the right one? Also, my phone was broken and I got it repaired. when it came back the signal was 5 bars, when I put my SIM card in, but when I installed maclaw's cm9 it was poor. Reboots seem to fix the problem.
Please help I have a ace 2 tried to root it but I must of used old version has I'm stuck on where it says ace 2 gt-i8160 I can go into both download mode and recovery I've cleared chache reset it rebooted it still no joy it won't connect to kies or Odin and when in recovery mode it say can't acces to ' /system/csc/BTU/system any help would be nice thank you

If yes, Then Flash via Mobile Odin.
If No, Try from a different usb port or pc. It might work.

Check if you have any software running that could conflict with Odin. For example: Kies

I'd don't know what happen, it only take charge via fastboot mode when the light it's blue. And the PC doesn't recognize the phone. When it's in normal Boot, I connect the charger and detect the charger vibrating and a few seconds disconect, and the PC doesn't recognize the phone, any sounds, nothing. I need help with this. For that reason I'm looking for a nougat stock rom to flash via Recovery cause the phone it's rooted. So I hope to find one Someday :crying:
