[Q] Which 4.2.2 ROM and when is 4.3 coming? - Galaxy Ace II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hey guys.
Coming from Desire S that went swimming, I found Ace 2 pretty similar, but missing more support in terms of ROMs.
In Desire S part of forum, there is a thread that has all the ROMs linked in one post, separated by android version. Could somebody do that?
Which ROM is currently newest and fastest?
Also, when can we expect 4.3 ROM to be available? Excuse my ignorance, but I really dont know what it takes for a ROM to be compiled on this device? I always thought that android is backward compatible with older devices..

answer:
1. all roms on 1 post are on ace 2 general section. please search before asking...
unfortunately, ace 2‘s jb still has lag eventhough already stable. Most people use CM..
2. Recent news, ace 2 only support until 4.2.2. source: www.sammobile.com/2013/03/18/galaxy-s-ii-galaxy-note-to-get-android-4-2-2-android-5-0-for-the-galaxy-s-iii-galaxy-note-ii/

Which one is "best"? Whats with that GPS bug?
4.2.2 is last for official version, but why cannot 4.3 be ported to this hardware? What are limitations?

1. you still can‘t use gps. I use sygic and when I opened it, it force closed automatically. no one is the best at this cm‘s rom because now there is only one cm builder (cm10 is dh.harald and cm10.1 is bagnzor. CM 10 is 4.1.2 and CM 10.1 is 4.2.2. eventhough both of them have bugs, you still can use it as daily purpose. you will get better explanation if you ask on rom‘s thread
2. 4.2.2 for ace 2 is only for CM version and for official is still prediction. Samsung has not release any official ROM 4.2.2 for ace 2, but instead they release ace 3. No further information whether this device will get 4.3 or not (don‘t know the limitation yet, but from the experience of jb I think ram is not high enough for 4.3 and samsung has already release ace 3 so it may be favored to it. From the news also known that samsung only release 4.3 for quadcore devices). So, if you want 4.2.2 but liked ace 2, go buy ace 3. if you want 4.3, go buy nexus series

Hey, actually I am still using the old galaxy 5, which supports officially only from, but one developer gave us cm7,9,10 and now 10.1!!!!

Hello developers.
I have 3 questions to ask.
1. The CyanogenMod 9 ALPHA (Build 5) rom was out for SGW in april. And it had Camera, FM radio issues. I want to know if they have released any latest version which doesnt have any issue?? I tried searching it online but couldnt get any. Please give me the link of the updated version.
2. Samsung Galaxy S I9000 just got CyanogenMod 10 (jelly bean). Is there any chance that it wil be available even for SGW?? Or is it already out? (Again i couldnt find any info regarding that as well). Please send the link so that i can flash the rom.
3. Can i flash CyanogenMod 10, which is released for Galaxy S, to Galaxy W? Will it work? Or will it cause any problems??
It will be really helpful (for rookie like me) to get the solutions from experts of xda. Thank you.
Cheers.
1. Build 5 is the latest
2. It is possible that someone will port it, but there is no JB ROM for the GW at the moment.
3. No you can't, the phone won't boot.
Q1. Build 5 is latest indeed, but there is a camera fix now, it still has some bugs, but it does focus now with stock camera app

Hello
Just want to correct Cm9 build 6 is now available..
(And here is the link for the thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1576874)
If you want my opinion I say u better backup your files and try this rom, another thing don't worry about bugs the rom will NOT crash and stuff .....as long you flash it correctly. Except the known issues (FM and camera)
And for the camera I tested it and it can auto focus but not touch to focus..!
And for question two ......be patient you don't know how long we waited until Cm9 is here and camera is half working.
And foe question three OF COURSE you can't ....( like the man before me said)
Thanks for reading.

multiview is a note 2 and international S3 feature. there are roms in the android development section that offer a ported version of this but it is not native to our US S3 variant. to the best of my knowledge, there is not a flashable mulitview package. if there was, it probably would not be stable. cheers

i dont think we'll see that update over here in the states. we might see 4.1.2 or 4.2 sometime this year, but it wont include mulitview.
i've heard good things about GalaxyMOD and there's Synergy rom too. both of those are based on stock with some mods and such. go check them out. i stick with aosp-based roms so i cant vouch for these one's stability. just know they're probably the top 2.

In the themes and apps section, search for 4.2 camera. There is back thread that contains several different cwm flashable cameras including note 2 and the 4.2 one

[Q] Uncertain about what mod to install.

Hi!
I just got a N7105 with 4.1.2, and I want to install CM10.1 on it.
But the ROMS i can find are for the 't0lte' device. My device was bought in Norway, so its probably a Nordic edition and it says it is a 't0ltexx' device. Is t0lte==t0ltex ? That is my main question.
I'm a bit confused by this, because I read that the 4.2.2 source code is supposedly out, but i then I also read that since the Note 2 and the S4 has different hardware (Exynos), it would not be possible to make a real CM based on 4.2.2 for the 7105 until Samsung publishes that code?
I see there are no stable version of CM for the 7105 yet. My question is then, should i wait until Samsung releases 4.2.2 for the 7105 and the mod developers to 'update' it? Or is the Nightly CM builds actually quite stable ?
This is my main device so I'd rather not take any chances!

t0lte is the code name for the GT-N7105!
Where does it say it's a "'t0ltexx"? If the phone identifies itself as a GT-N7105 you are fine to flash any t0lte firmware to it. Just DO NOT flash a GT-N7100 to it, because you'll be very sad then.
I advise you to read the cyanogenmod thread for details about how stable it is, what does/doesn't work. To all intents and purposes the information in that thread will apply to your GT-N7105 equally.

Humm sorry for late reply, I thought I answered you already, obviously I must have closed the window!
Both CPUZ and CPU Identifier says the device is 't0ltexx'. I've been reading some more on the development of CM for 7105 and I might as well wait. They have trouble making phone calls, which is one of the main purposes of my phone
I will probably just root it.

[Q] Ace II ROMs -> Ace II x compatibility?

Hi there!
Do anyone know if ROMs cooked for Ace II would work on Ace IIx (GT-s7560M) and, in consequence, on Galaxy Trend (GT-s7560)?
I'm asking because due to the low popularity od Trend, I can choose from stock TouchWiz ICS and this http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2292696, which is also ICS and that doesn't satisfy me. As I can see, there are lots of JB ROMs for Ace II, hence the question.
Thank you for your answers
No. I see cm10.1(or 10.2, whatever) for ace 2x, thats android 4.2(jb) why not use that

Unfortunately, it's not that easy. You could attempt to port a ROM from the Ace 2, but it wouldn't be bugfree. Getting it booted would be a feat. Like the previous commentor said, there is a CM10.2 and CM11 (JB and KK ROMs) ROM for the Ace II X, though it isn't completely bug free. You could also try my Mod Pack (link in my sig) for the stock ICS ROM. The next update will include some AOSP ICS themed visuals, so it'll make stock ROM feel more AOSP and less Samsung-y.
Well, I haven't noticed at first, there's even 4.3 ROM cooked for Ace IIx ( http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2518416&highlight=ace+iix ), thanks for hints.
I'll try to set it up and running later today and confirm if it does the trick on Trend.

AFAIK, YoshiShaPow's Slimbean doesn't work. Bootloops. If you want a good ROM (and pretty much the only real custom ROM), try SeannyM's CM builds. There's 10.2 and 11 (Android 4.3 Jellybean and 4.4 Kitkat). All the source built ROMs for the Ace II X are currently buggy. There in his signature here. They'll definitely work with the Trend, but I'm not sure about RIL compatibility with the Trend. If it doesn't work, you can try flashing the Ace II X 'MG2 firmware from Sammobile with Odin, then installing CM.
For future seekers:
Well, after hours of flashing, wiping and testing, it's CM 10.2 ported by SeannyM which appears the best ROM for Galaxy Trend (originally meant for Ace IIx), CM11 has less features, ART doesn't work like it should and it's too buggy tu use so far. 10.2 has a couple of bugs but it's definitely usable as a daily driver. The most gear-grinding bugs are:
WiFi (either you have it turned on all the time or after turning it off you have to turn it on back again and reboot your device, otherwise it won't connect to any network saying 'authentication problem occurred'. That can also be a RIL issue with my device, as you've stated above),
Bluetooth, which simply doesn't work yet
Camera - you can just download any other camera app from play or whatever.
Some may also consider message which shows up after entering PIN ("a SIM card has been detected; reboot your device to install it" or something like that) a problem. You just bypass it by pressing 'back' button and everything's fine.
I use it with JB gapps and 1208MHz kernel, both also got to work by SeannyM, he has links to download all of them goodies in his signature.
Thanks for all the hints
I recently bought an Ace IIx, I quickly found out that it is different from the Ace II and there are less custom rom available. I would flash CM10.2 but I need bluetooth in my car, so I can't use CM10.2 until bluetooth is fixed.
For now, I'm running Daver's MG2 deodexed stock rom and I added a few tweaks (patched services.jar, installed busybox and enabled init.d support). Now, I would like to know if there are some init.d scripts available to improve performance?
Hello.
I have a Galaxy trend s7560
Root is working and cwm 5.x
Also. I flashed cm11 Android 4.4
On it from the Ace 2x.
This is working fine.

[Q] Need advice RE: KitKat ROM for Galaxy Ace 2 GT-i8160

Sorry if this has been asked many times in the past, but I cannot find anyone asking recently...
My girlfriend has the official jellybean 4.1.2 installed on her UK Ace 2 GT-i8160, but it often freezes up or lags when doing simple tasks... she was thinking of getting me to downgrade it back to gingerbread, but I wondered if getting one of the kitkat roms would be better?
The requirements are simple.... the most stable and reliable kitkat rom for a UK Ace 2 GT-i8160.
I've been reading and searching the forums for the last couple hours... but I just keep getting more and more confused.
Can anyone help?
EDIT/UPDATE:
CM11 looks like it's the most worked on mod, but I'm confused as to why there are so many 'stable' and 'fully working' releases, when the next update lists a few fixes... so it obviously wasn't 'fully working'? :S
Is the last version of 4.4.3 more stable than the latest 4.4.4? or perhaps a lower version than that?
Or perhaps CM10.2 would be better? - as I stated above, I just want the phone to be as stable and reliable as possible... the official jellybean rom is a joke, and gingerbread wasn't much better.
No replies, but ok...
I've spent about 10 hours reading threads about different roms, but it would have been nice if someone could have pointed me in the right direction to save some of that time. If anyone else is wanting the most stable custom ROM for their Ace 2, go for 4.3.1 TeamCanjica CyanogenMod 10.2.
I've just installed it and it works like a dream so far... like getting a brand new phone
Doesn't even need to be rooted, very simple to install through the standard recovery menu.
