  18. JobenUretaLim Hello.. I had similar issue before. I guess you are running on 2.2, first upgrade to 2.3.6 (gingerbread) and you would be able to see sd card options..

    Reply

  23. Yashodhan Wagle To go back to 2.3.6 i.e. the stock Rom of your phone, you must have the Rom backup. If you did not made the backup at the time of flashing, then you have to download the stock Rom for this phone and flash it!

  26. the problem was ……….(cant open /sdcard/update.zip ) no such file or directory…
    what should i do now guys?…

    Reply

  29. Hello all,
    As there have been too many comments, it is very difficult to reply to every one. So, if you face any problem first read all the comments if similar problem is solved there and take the help of the person who had the same problem.
    Also, I am listing some tips to be implemented if facing any problem:
    -First check if the problem is solved by removing the battery and restarting the phone.
    -Try re-flashing the ROM without flashing GAPPS.
    -Try re-flashing the ROM by wiping the the Dalvik Cache exactly one time before flashing the ROM and after flashing the ROM.
    Thank you!

  53. basooly0104 Thank you for your nice words, but this ROM is not developed by me, the whole credit goes to rohan007 and other XDA forum members, I just share it with you guyz, just to make it easy to find the best ROM for this phone.

  55. Rahul Dubey basooly0104 lol thought about it
    and by the way
    ur room is soo good 
    i highly recommend for all who is worry and confusing u don’t have to !
    just download it and flash it it’s so good and fast and doesn’t slow ur phones 🙂

    Reply

  56. Yashodhan Wagle few apps only, as most apps which need 4.0 + android version need good hardware and as Galaxy POP is less in hardware, no matter which ROM we use, those apps won’t work

    Reply

  57. basooly0104 oh yes, actually, the screenshots are from earlier version which has been updated to 4.2.2 but due to no changes in the interface I uploaded the same images, bit lazy u know.. :p

    Reply

  62. vijaiCruze basooly0104 nop u can normally download it if ur phone is rooted or not 
    but did u wipe cache and done the data reset/factory before flashing the rom and after flashing the rom is done? it’s recommended .

    3. Now select “cm-10.1.0-RC5-GT-S5570-tass.zip” which you downloaded earlier
    Now, let it complete and continue from the 5th step mentioned in the post

    Reply

  77. Rahul Dubey IonutBogdanDragomir strange, after reflashing everything’s ok, cant imagine what was the reason for those problems,well, ty

    Reply

  78. IonutBogdanDragomir Try reflashing the ROM without flashing GAPPS, this ROM has not any bugs like the problem you mentioned. For me, everything the home button, lock screen patterns, passwords, slide options, widgets everything is working fine. and please make sure your device is GT-S5570 only (not 5570i)

    Reply

  79. Rahul Dubey IonutBogdanDragomir nop, home button itself, it doesnt wake device, if u assign functions for longpress they dont work, it doesnt send apps in background, also security things for locking screen dont work, things like slide for unlock, pattern, etc

        2. Rahul Dubey VindsterCruz i wasnt able to install google apps, But it doesnt matter ROM is working great… Ty for the rom ^^

  85. Hi,

    Is there any custom rom for POP that can help me increase the internal memory or do i have to partition my SD?

    Reply

    1. karankapur1993 There is no such ROM which increases the internal memory. You have to partition the SD card, and that is very easy. 
      I am using Galaxy POP personally and I have installed the above mentioned ROM and partitioned the SD Card, my phone is working super cool. 🙂

  86. Hi,
    I followed above process for my android POP. For step 4 did not complete and got aborted on it’w own. Now I am not able to reboot my phone to previously android 2.3.6. Please help me.
    Thanks

      1. Hi Rahul Dubey
        Thanks for your prompt response. Well, I followed above method only as you described as (1.), (2.) (3.) but it got aborted after 1 minute or so. I tried 2 times. Fortunately, I somehow could recover by using odin multidownloader and firmware file.

        1. njain Rahul DubeyI have myself rooted my galaxy POP and then I have written these steps. Don’t know what’s going wrong with your device. I am glad that you were able to recover previous firmware. 🙂
          Thank You
