[Q] How return i8160P to stock after JB - Galaxy Ace II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

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....

Why someone want to return to GB?

please follow this link: http://www.ibtimes.co.uk/articles/4...ndroid412-jellybean-downgrade-gingerbread.htm
1 - install the firmware I8160XXLK6 rev00
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

You say MC8 is horrible because of the 482mb ram? Its just the official version... Whats so different and horrible between MC8 and MB2/MB4...

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

[Q] official 4.3 from sammobile

Hi all
do you know if the version deployed by samsug in the different countries is the same one ?
What I wonder is do I need to wait for the real french version of the ROM or can I download the one that is written here of any country and it will be the same ?

Bonjour Nico,
I'm French myself.
Look at what happened to me yesterday...
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=48232525&postcount=1
I really wonder why you would want to upgrade to official 4.3...
But if you insist... If you want, we could exchange our phones
Hi Surfinette !
Nice to see a girl here !
Actually, I don't have my device rooted anymore since I bought my Samsung Note II,
- because I need it to be stock in order to get my business mails,
- because I understood I did not need it really... what for ? I can install all of the apps I want, I can develop my own apps with AIDE
- because I don't need my device to be running on a custom ROM as stock Samsung ROM already contains all options I need
...
So yes, I still would like to install this new 4.3 SAMMY's ROM, which I am waiting for so long...
However, I share your disappointment, regarding you needs and wishes

Even if I didn't care for a custom Rom, I would want to be rooted, in order to use truly battery-saving apps, add-killing apps, kill some useless system bloatware, use a more efficient kernel, use a firewall to prevent many apps to connect to the internet against my will (and sending whatever data to whatever server without me knowing what they are sending behind my back),...

I bought the phone in China on TaoBao (Chinese EBAY) and it was made for Poland. It came with an unlocked 2.3.6 which from the beginning did not see my sim card. I flashed all the way up to cm11 and all worked great except the modem which never saw my sim card. I went back to stock European 2.3.6 two times and built it back up including trying to flash a modem or two. Still no sim.
I then found the official Chinese (has english too) 4.1.2 and flashed that with ODIN. All is working great but still no network. THEREFORE I am guessing that when this thing was built for Poland it had a special modem (hardware) that only works there?
Now I am downloading all the 4.1.2 firmwares built for Poland in the hope that one of them can drive whatever modem is in this thing.
Heading to bed now (UTC +8) and will report back in the morning.

[Q] How to find the old stock gingerbread 2.3.6 ROM? Serious mother-in-law problem.

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

Flash indian firmware. They are the first to get updates.
And when updating from 4.1.2 to 4.3 or 4.4.2 you should make a factory reset in recovery because they change storage location.
For best result after a flash i recommend you make a backup of your internal memory and flash the Indian firmware then make a factory reset.

[Q] Looking for specific *.tft file

Hi guys,
I am looking for specific *tft flash file for XMS c1905 model,
15.1.C.2.8.

So if anyone has this, please share, as i am really thinking to downgrade from 4.3, at least RAM and battery were better. Thanks

Oh you are my neighbour xD (Slovenia).
No need you can just flash the international or else. I flashed I think Caribbean .ftf and it is working fine and dandy.
Sent from my awfully named device.

Well, flash any 4.1 firmware, change the regional code inside build.prop and update via pc companion, if unlocked bootloader, download update, create firmware file and flash it.
Cheers!!!
i've already tried CE and other versions of 4.3, even succeed to flash indian 1904, did work but it didnt feel good, updates for programs came later then on other roms, but somehow the first ROM i had on it felt best. I did find 4.3 version but initial, nope...

Get root and then edit build.prop, and update via pc companion... It will work...

Huh. I have Vipnet too and I don't experience problems with FTF's, and I use the WORLD version of the firmware. Here's a link: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2781799
