I can share with you a simple and minimal Android rom that could make the ace completely usable in 2018... Would you be interested?
I think that the best idea is to use Android 2.3 as base (no bloatware, no TouchWiz, and no Android 4.4 that just crazily drains battery)
I' ve tested less known apps that can still run on 2.3 (and found them very fast too). I will replace old system apps with them
I also thought that a good way to push the Ace beyond it's limit is to take a look at the Sony Xperia Play threads on xda. This phone has the same cpu/gpu and it has been supported a lot through the years (being a gaming phone, Devs has done their best to optimize performance instead of themes and useless functions)
Let me know what you want to see in this rom and I'll try to do it!
Just leave a comment with an advice :fingers-crossed:
