Here's a step by step procedure for those who is asking questions about updating their Samsung Galaxy Ace to the latest firmware version S5830XWKPN android 2.3.4 Gingerbread that has been available quite sometimes now and reportedly fixed some bugs issues from earlier versions like,SOD (Sleep of Death) problem.
I'm an owner of Samsung Galaxy Ace GT-S5830 with Gingerbread S5830SERKPE version and liked to update to the S5830XWKPN version. But I have a problem, how can updated?
The problem starts, when according to the guide, you need to input boot, phone,csc, and pda files in the odin multi downloader 4.38, but they have given absolutely nothing indication as to where those files are meant to be downloaded from. I had the extracted the firmware, hoping that it would contain those files, but wtf they only contain these files: "amss; arm11boot; boot; csc.rfs; mibib; oemsbl; qcsbl; recovery; system.rfs". There are no files like "CODE; CSC; MODEM and APBOOT" files to associate the fields defined in odin multi downloader 4.38. Can anyone help?
Quoted from samfirmware forum..
The S5830XKPKPN comes in a single packaged file, I mean the PHONE, PDA and CSC were packed together, so you will only need to tick and select the "One Packaged" option in Odin. One thing good about a single pack or ONE package is that it will not delete all the files stored on your device, so it will cost less time unlike using with the three files, PDA, PHONE and CSC that you will need to back-up all the important files before flashing.
