  1. Always up to date? I don’t think so. This page hasn’t been updated in a while. CM7.2 by vo-1 Miracle is on v4, now, you still have v2.

  2. maclaw has done a gr8 work……………………
    if camera starts 2 work, it is the best and stable rom for ace

  3. Hi,

    I think the CyanogenMod7.2 RC1 by vo-1 MIRACLE Edition V2 should not be in the section called “Minor ROMS”. I’m using it since 2 weeks ago and it’s the best ROM i’ve ever used on my Ace. Just give it a try! It have the most battery life, no lag, etc.

    • For that you will need a CWM flashable package. So usually custom Roms can be flashed with that method. You can flash the stock firmware very easily using ODIN. Search the site for method.
