Hey guys this is Eddie aka bulletproof monk welcome to my video on
how to fix your Galaxy Ace though I've had my Samsung Galaxy Ace for a while
and I've discovered that after I use the phone for a while it just keeps running
out of internal memory and I've done a lot of research on how to fix the
problem it seems it seems like the only solution is to install another mod and then
install link2sd which requires partitioning of your SD
card and there's a lot of different tutorials on how to do it and I don't
think I've found one single tutorial that explains the whole thing especially
for the samsung galaxy ace so I've just decided to put together my own tutorial
on how to do everything just in case you're like me stuck with a samsung
galaxy ace and can't do anything with it because it keeps running out of space
before we do proceed with the tutorial you need to understand that I take no
responsibility for any damage that this could do to your phone if you do follow
through with the tutorial and what happens your warranty it's very possible
that your phone will no longer have a valid warranty if you proceed so on the
screen you can see some steps on how I have managed to do this and some of them
come from different websites tutorials all of their addresses are shown on the
screen number one back up your phone and this
process again it's your responsibility I take no responsibility if you lose any
of your data through routing or modding your phone the best the safest way for
me to back up what my data is number one I make sure all of my phone contacts are
on Gmail the good thing about that is by typing all my phone contacts on Gmail
that means if I ever lose any contacts or if I ever swap phones it's always on
Gmail and if I want to import gmail contacts to my phone with most Android
phones it's just a matter of installing a Google your Google account on your
phone and all the contacts are imported automatically so and you can also make
your phone save new contacts on Gmail automatically so all of my contacts are
on Gmail and that way I'd never lose any contacts your calendar make sure it's in
sync with Google Calendar so nothing from your calendar will be lost
make sure all of your SD card contains photos videos music are copied to your
computer and again you're in charge of backing up your phone and restoring your
backup if anything goes wrong okay so basically I take no responsibility for
anything that could happen while you are doing this tutorial you are
following this at your own risk
in step two you're going to flash the official stock firmware on samsung
galaxy ace using Odin now you need download Odin which is a program used
to flash the official stock firmware onto your phone and then you obviously
need to download the official stock firmware and also some other files you
need in the flashing process all the files that you need are on this website
here so click that website I will make a link to it on the bottom of this video
so you can click on that link download all the files that you need and then
come back to the video so the Odin multi downloader looks like this alright
if you follow this website here you should be able to download this program
and there's three steps that you need to do to set up this program to flash the
official stock firmware onto your phone number one select OPS you're going to
click that and you're gonna select Cooper_v1.0.ops which is a file that you
also download it from this website on the left in step two so you're going to
select that file you're going to tick these three boxes in this row here one
package auto reboot protect OPS and down the bottom where it says one package
you're going to click that and you're gonna select the official stock rom
that you downloaded official stock firmware that you downloaded and that's
also from this website here make sure you go there and
download the official stock firmware for your phone and my one is here you might
need to unzip the file extract the md5 file from the archived that you download
for your official stock firmware it should just be one single .md5 file so
extract that out and click that in your Odin multi downloader and
notice how it says check md5 okay so it's passed a check that means this file
is valid for you to flash on to your phone now what do you do with your phone
so right now your phone should be powered off completely and only when it
is totally powered off that's when you turn it on into download mode and what
you're gonna do is hold the volume down button which is here so hold that down
and hold down the home button which is this one here with your thumb and then
powered it on with the power button so hold down these two buttons press the
power button and don't let go and now you can see that it says downloading so
when it says downloading that means it's in download mode and that's when you
connect your phone with the USB cable to your computer so connect that connect it
up
and now let's go back to the computer and see what it says okay so now that
you've connected your USB cord to your phone you'll notice that Odin downloader
now has a yellow color appearing there and what that means is you can now
safely click the start button to download the stock firmware onto your
phone so if you click the start button
notice I'll say this again you're doing this at your own risk
so click the start button and now it's starting to download the mod onto your
phone now this is going to take a while probably
five to six minutes so I'm just gonna let it run okay so it's been about five
minutes and you'll notice that on the odin multi downloader it now says pass
and down the bottom here it says kill timer that means number two is now
successful now it doesn't actually matter what your phone is doing because
we're not going to use the official stock firmware anyway we're going to go
on to step three which is install the latest clockwork mod recovery so you're
gonna click on this link here which is gonna which is going to give you a
tutorial on how to install clockwork mod and that is actually the important part
to modding your phone so click on that okay so for step three what you're going
to do is click on the Odin multi downloader again to open that up and
this time you're going to select cooper ops again and then select one
package and down the bottom right hand side you're going to select the
clockwork mod recovery that you have just downloaded from this webpage here so
double click on that
and then your phone you're going to do exactly the same thing as we did before
you're going to turn it off and you're going to put it into download mode so
right now your phone should be powered off completely and only when it is
totally powered off that's when you turn it on into download mode and what you're
gonna do is hold the volume down button which is here so hold that down and hold
down the home button which is this one here with your thumb and then powered it
on with the power button so hold down these two buttons press the power button
and don't let go and now you can see that it says downloading so when it says
downloading that means it's in download mode and that's when you connect your
phone with the USB cable to your computer so connect that connect it up
and now let's go back to the computer and see what it says
