Find a kernel that containts this 2e recovery and you shall have it.
About flashing your ROMs, use Odin for that, no special recovery required.

isnt 2E is for froyo and 3E is for gingerbread? correct me if im wrong

We have moved on since 2e look for a cwm + root 4 e in the dev section.

Wrong answer,You dont need to be rooted to flash custom roms.Recovery isnt a apk file to get su access
BTW,SuperOneClick only works if you are on Froyo,doesnt work for GB

here u go and u can flash any custom rom with this (only made for ace)
u cant flash any rom without this.download the zip and follow instructions in my previous post.
you can flash any rom you like made for galaxy ace, and most of the roms root your phone after flashing.
yup..u dont need to root ur phone.. just flash the cmw from ur stock recovery mode.. then u can flash any custom from the cwm ^^.. enjoy!
I have been seeing the same questions being asked again and again..Do we need to root or unroot before flashing,Wonder why :/
Well for me, im not that hightech...
Sent from my GT-S5830 using xda premium
first of all..
what u need to do is to download a official cwm..
flash the cwm from ur stock recovery mode (power off+home button)
then download the custom rom that u wan
Follow the instructions given by the developer and then flash it in the cwm (power off+home button)
Tada! u can have ur custom rom ^^
You don't need to be rooted in order to flash any custom rom...
Rooting just gives you powers to access stunning things on your phone...customize your phone etc...

CWM
I managed to find a CWM Recovery for Galaxy S Advance, googling it will come up with several results (can't post link),
But I have a problem. Trying to flash the .zip from SD card will start the installation, it says the recovery is replaced with CWM Recovery, and then the phone just turns off. Turning the phone on againg and entering the recovery shows I'm still in the original recovery (Android system recovery (3e)).
The problem is that this seems to prohibit me from flashing custom ROM-s form SD.
Any ideas?

Installed CWM before rooting..

HI al.... i am a noob to all these things and was kinda excited to install a ROM in my galaxy ace (gt5830s) phone..
i accidentally installed CWM ( clockworkmod recovery) before rooting it....
now i am not able to root my phone as its saying some status 7 error in boot mode..
please helpp...m stuck here :/
Don't know any specifics to your phone but I'm thinking you are trying to flash a bad ROM or one not meant for your phone, try a to download another ROM in your phones forum and flash again

Seems to me that you didn't spend much time searching and reading the forum.
The most direct method to root at this time is the Framaroot apk which you install and then root from your phone. After that, if you want custom firmware, use Mobile Odin lite or Mobile Odin pro to install a custom kernel containing Clockwork Mod Recovery.

You'll have to factory reset using some leaked stock ROM for your phone off the internet. Data will be erased in the process. If you can still access your file system back up the stuff you don't want to lose. Go to this link http://androidxda.com/download-intex-stock-rom-models and find your phone model. Click the download button for it to get your stock ROM, then click the blue instructions hyperlink to read how to flash it. This will put your phone back to factory settings. Just an important thing to note, I have never tried those stock ROMS or the flash tool in the instructions so do this at your own risk.
Hmmm, thanx for your advice, i will try it tomorrow and let u know. Many thanx

HOLD THE FACTORY RESET IDEA. I have found something that might help you restore your Nandroid backup. Unfortunately it involves using command prompt. This guide explains pretty clearly what to type and everything. If there is any part of this guide you don't understand, post a reply or send a message. http://www.modaco.com/topic/299479-howto-performing-a-nandroid-restore-manually-using-adb/. But before you do this you might want to follow this guide to know how to install the android debug bridge tools. http://www.howtogeek.com/125769/how-to-install-and-use-abd-the-android-debug-bridge-utility/
Thanx man, flashd the stock ROM, now everything is fine, thanx… thanx… thanx…
