You can upgrade your stock rom to 2.3.* via ODIN, then flash a custom rom

no dont install cwm if you are on v2.2 because none roms will work
you need to go to odin and flash gingerbread
there in the stickies a list on how to do it
with odin because with kies you will get an error when rooted

Are you kidding me ? That was a bad answer .
All versions of Android can flash custom ROMs .
NoName V1 for Froyo by an0nym0us_ explains it
Herpderp DXKPB.

- download GingerBread Stock ROM then flash it with Odin
- root it then download CWM Recovery or Install it from market and download this one too recovery-clockwork-5.0.2.6-galaxyace-fix.zip
- after installing CWM Recovery apk or from market, open it and go to recovery
- choose install update from zip then choose the zip file recovery-clockwork-5.0.2.6-galaxyace-fix.zip

no need to flash the firmware through odin..
go to cwm recovery.. wipe cache, wipe dalvik cache and factory reset(if you like) and flash it through the recovery!

the recovery you have is the stock recovery.. and for flashing roms and stuff you require cloxkworkmod recovery!
so i would have to ask are you rooted?! if yes then how did you root your device..?
ill guide you from there!

Start reading on how to root and installing kernel with CWM Recovery. SGS kernel and recovery parttions are the same.
Easiest way is flash Chainfire's CF-Root kernel with Odin here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1103399
There are many other ways; Intratech has a quick root guide in post #1 here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1075278
Read, read and read some more until your confident to do it. Otherwise don't.
Please also read the "Stickies" in each forum and FAQ etc and search for answers BEFORE posting.
Best of luck
And if you really want to try ice cream sandwich, i will advice you to go with cm9 first as it delivers the smoothest of the experience with almost no force closes or random reboots. You arr aware of the fact that you are going to flash an expermental build right. Its not stable for daily use yet.

I have the latest firmware list samfirmware. exactly:
S5830XWKT6 ## 2011 December S5830OXXKT3 Portugal (TPH)
what do you recommend?
Samfirmware list
EDIT:
SOLVED. the problem could be caused by two things:
- The two file recovery, that cwm4 and cwm5, could be corrupted because I had them on a dvd-rw
- After the flash recovery delel were not super-user powers, thus supporting the hypothesis of corrupted files
- Binary file root to not fully compatible with version 2.3.6 of gingerbread

unable to change recovery

hi,
I have a orange samsung galaxy s2. I upgraded the ROM to 2.3.6 and rooted it via Odin.
I want to install a custom rom in the device but the problem is
the recovery menu is still the stock one. I cant seem to change the recovery. I tried upgrading it via ROM Manager but no gain.
Please Help
rom manager can't flash cwm to your phone, did you flash CF-root with odin? if you didn't then flash it and you should have cwm

Hi,
Thanks for the unbelievably fast reply. Yes i did add CF-Root-SGS2_XW_OXA_KK5-v5.0-CWM5 as a PDA option in Odin. I followed this guide http://androidadvices.com/root-samsung-galaxy-s2-gt-i9100-xwkk5-gingerbread-236-firmware/
should i do it again?

Hi,
Problem solved. I flashed the CF-root and tried the 3 button combo to go into the recovery but no gain.
What made it work was that i started the CWM app and went into the recovery from there. That made it work for the 3 button combo as well.

You will need to use Odin. No way around it. And you will need to flash back to stock 2.1 then you can use the cwm recovery update.zip from the esental hard to find files thread and that will install cwm once your on 2.1 then you can download what ever ROM you want and flash it. FYI you will need to flash the ROM twice. Once will give me the jb recovery then the second time will install the rom
