SAMSUNG GALAXY ACE OS froyo-gingerbread-icecream

hey guys!

Ive got a different post today,
its all about updating and downgrading your system specifically samsung galaxy ace s5830



a little background on my phone.
its almost 2 yrs old, bought it in the Philippines. it have been a holy grail in my everyday life, so i came across an update when i plug my phone to kies(software of samsung to your pc) saying that's there's a new firmware (update for my phone) i tried doing it but in end it resulted to error which mean it wasn't successful, so i started researching for a manual update outside kies and i found that samsung ace can now be upgrade to jelly bean which is the new android software, i installed it and it crashed my phone (epic fail!) so i searched again for a solution , and it said that i need to downgrade to froyo which was the first (?) android system
so here's the steps
download the Odin multi downloader 
then the cooper files or just search for froyo system download
backup your phone and sd files
after the download and backup your ready for the actual steps.
which is too long for me too explain there are alot of blogs out there to help you, you just have to search mother internet!

the same goes for upgrading to gingerbread or downgrading to it.

for the icecream update, its a little different successfully install cyanogenmod 9



you have to download the update @ http://maclaw.pl/downloads/

you wont go wrong if you follow ever so carefully, if your still confused go search up youtube for actual demo on how to install.or @http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nJIGWrXnavc

for me , this is what worked, i wont say that i had it easy because ive been trying and trying for 2 days
and for my rating on icecream for samsung ace.. its a 2/5
cons:
1. some of the application is missing namely:
file or the folder manager (i had to download at google play which is not internal memory friendly)
youtube (downloaded it on google play)
radio (dont know if theres an app on google play)
task manager

2. my phone if im not mistaken the scrolling and changing panels got slower

3. internal memory full from the updates

4. less volume option 

5.no korean  characters anymore :(

pro:
1. only the style and look of it is good 

you maybe asking why not just go back to gingerbread if you dislike it that much?
because!!! i should give this one a chance, change is something we should all learn to adapt and accept, maybe someday i'll like this, but if i really did not find anything to be attached to this software, i might really just go back to gingerbread

source: google and youtube
ive searched and experience this myself, if you do want it after reading my post then please do get it, but always remember that all is according to your choices, i will not be responsible if your phone got bricked.
importantly : this worked for GALAXY ACE s5830

end.
