can this work?

oh and what roms does you use?
-and there dont seem to have a section for unlock BL...
-and my friend said ace is rubbish phone ....i duuno ..he said it's very lag , is it true?
Best way will be to get CF-Root Adaption from Development Section, it gives you root and cwm Recovery and is flashable from Stock Recovery. Save n easy. Look for the B83, I can confirm that it works with most stock Roms and it gives you oc kernel.. download NoFrills Cpu Control from the market to adjust Frequencies and your good to go
For custom Roms, I am sure you will find one that fits you, many good Versions around ;-)

does ace need to unlock bootloader? and wait..ace comes with a recovery on stock ? how do you enter it?
oh and if i get that kernel can i change to other kernel if i want to? will it remove the root feature if it change my kernel?
Home + Power to enter Recovery
Once you have root I don't think it will be taken away till you flash Stock org Rom again. Please, be careful in what you do and refer to the very good guide here (sticky)
Nothing is locked and nothing is impossible with the Ace ;-) but be careful!

Definitely, be like me.. flash the ROM yourself without asking anyone and DIY. I checked these forums and found out how to do myself without asking anyone.. so you can too.. I joined XDA after successfully flashing my ROM and proving my worth.
it seems like stock ics v1 is a good rom , filled with mods / scripts and i has a kernel ( cant remember name ) i think when i have my ace i will get it
and one of most important thing is
DO NOT TRY OUT ROM MANAGER
it will turn ace to paperweight

Hey all I've been browsing the forum for a couple of days and decided to join so I can speak with you all ok so I've been pretty scared with all this android modding and rooting etc. because its more difficult than anything I have done before u.u I have already semi-bricked a Galaxy Mini recovered it, then hard bricked it by flashing the wrong recovery but anyways I got a SGA like three weeks ago and I am one of those guys who like to mod/flash everything and I don't like the idea of my Ace being Stock xD (I have a flashed xbox 360, modded wii, and jailbroken ps3 and have done jailbroken/unlocked iphones) anyway I wanted help on how to get started on all of this, my phone is currently:
Stock Rom Carrier: Claro
Froyo 2.2.1
And I want to install any of these:

Wow! a whole year! well I couldn't resist and joined xD this forum seems to have an awesome community
Anyway I kinda knew about the superone click but umm if I root with that then I can go right ahead and install CWM and Custom Roms?
Install CWM4 or 5 for Galaxy Ace, you shouldn't need Root for this. You can find them on this Forum if you look. This will replace your stock recovery. Once this is done you place your ROM on the SD card, reboot into recovery and hit install from Zip then choose your new ROM. Simple as that.
If you need any more help let me know

Ok so I don't need root to install Custom Roms?
And I don't need to upgrade the FW to Gingerbread or anything because I've been reading a lot about this and I'm kinda confused?
-----Edit-----
Also don't I need to make a backup or anything? xD because I don't want to brick my Ace its the only phone I have right now.
U don't need root to install cwm 5 ..well I think u should upgrade your firmware to 2.3.xx because most of the roms for SGA are based on gingerbread .ie they need gingerbread basebands ...if u flash them on your FROYO phone u will BRICK your phone !!!!!
Btw I always got what I needed In xda by googleing so I never felt the need to join xda ..

Sure you could make a back-up, it is always good to have just in case. You can't restore a stock ROM through recovery, you'll just get a boot loop, but there are other methods to restore your stock back-up. Froyo to Gingerbread is no problem, it is Gingerbread to Froyo that it becomes more complicated.
EDIT: But some ROM's do require you to be on 2.3.x so you could do an official update to Gingerbread to "ensure" everything goes smoothly.

Thanks for the info
I will look....
Also what happens if I accidentaly flash a Custom Rom made for FROYO when my phone is on Gingerbread FW?
Sorry for all these questions
Well, they don't say. Why not be safe and flash a stock 2.3.x ROM with ODIN. Better to be safe then sorry right?! Are you familiar with ODIN?
Yes I have used ODIN in the past before but only with the One Package option.
-----Edit-----
And if I where to flash that stock firmware which one should I use European?
Yup, that is what you'll be doing. I wrote a little tutorial on it a while ago, the link is here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1408974&highlight=2+3+6+update
go ahead and use the European open version.

Download your original or stock firmware and save it .Or just simply keep a copy of the file you flashed 2.3.6
Also which stock Rom to put and which is newest i mean on gingerbread not on ICS, and that rom i want to be more aware in battery saver thats my needs for now. And also if I put stock newest rom than also i need to flash the kernel or not???
Roms have kernel built in .
And whats the privilegies if I flash the kernel to??
Fail to understand are you confusing kernel with firmware or with a rooted kernel .
I help couse this Samsung G SII isn't mine, it's my cousin 's phone, so last thing. Is to brick his phone.
Honest opinion is you dont have enough knowledge to flash a phone that you do not own what are you going to do if you brick it buy him a new phone .

Alright this is my first post here..
I am a complete newbie as far android rooting and custom rom installation is concerned. I have been using Samsung galaxy ace's stock installation unrooted phone for about 6 months...after installing a few apps the phone has become sluggish..and battery drains out more quickly I can do a factory reset
but its not practical reinstalling apps again and again . I figured out custom rom is the way to go to unlock the potential of the phone but the chances of bricking my phone has stopped from taking the plunge.
I haven't yet found a recent how to root and install custom rom post for the galaxy ace S5830 ,the ones that are available are 8 -9 months old I believe a lot has changed since then
My current rom is gingerbread DDKQ6
In short this is what I want
1) Back-up the entire factory os( ie samsung touchwiz etc)..incase I screw up I can always go back.
2) root the phone
3) Install a stable and secure rom gingerbread or ics (even better) which is fast and doesn't lag after installing a few apps. without sacrificing any original features of the phone apart from touchwiz
4) a rom which has all google apps running (gmail,android market,placess,navigation ,search,youtube etc).. i noted the current ics roms for galaxy ace don't have the camera working.
Pls help.

Chances of bricking is very less. You can read the stickies in development section. All info given there. Nothing much has changed. So you can use the old posts without worry.
as you new better start with a stock custom Rom . try stocklite 6 or adrenaline Rom. you Will know what you were missing.

For flashing a rom, ALWAYS delete Dalvic cache, cache and factory reset. Remember those 3 and you can flash any rom you want. Delete these before installing the rom, then flash.
Some roms don't require you to delete one of those, but always do just for safety measures and to avoid future problems.
How do i update superuser app?
Sent from my GT-S5830 using XDA
As other users told you you can follow other guides about galaxy ace (even 11 month old, not so much have changed (for example http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1034145).
Just two advices if it's your firs experience with ROMs and root (that I learned here, and "save" my smartphone til now! )
1) To avoid lag and memory limits you should try link2sd or a2sd when yo'ull root (google for them)
2) NEVER use ROM Manager (or the CWM apk pre-installed in some ROMs) to backup your phone/intall ROMs/MOD/etc (NEVER USE IT!) because it'll brick your Ace!
Hope have helped you... Good Luck

So i`ll assume that you already rooted ok?
Download Clockworkmod recovery from dev section
Install it by going to recovery-apply update then choose the sip file
Reboot
Download AOSP rom
put in SD
reboot to recovery
wipe everything
install zip from SD
choose AOSP rom ok?
but AOKP is still under beta so I don`t really recommend it
Its all on www.google.com or just use your brain to click the stickies please....

another thing is i want take up my stock rom too.. i may shift to stock ROM if i m unable to handle custom..
so the backup of the stock ROM is to be taken before rooting orr after rooting?
Back up with cwm after rooting and after installing cwm. Still, the best way to return to stock is Samfirmware and flashing through Odin (u need a PC and the ace's controllers).
It's all in the forums, just don't rush to flashing stuff without an exit plan.

You don't need to flash a kernel, just stick with the default and stock rom.
I used to have a Samsung Captivate and flashed the hell out of that phone just coz out of the box it was pretty crap but this phone is so great on stock that all I've done is root. Haven't even bothered putting CWM on it.

Oh its good. I think I just need root. And, I want AOSP look. Is there any theme like this ? ( I asked Kernel question because In Sony, custom kernels have better battery life than stock kernels. So this isn't right in this section. ? Right ? )
yeah i guess dark knight kernal is quite gud
so far devs are making kernals better and better , but its quite a bit time more needed
so fot now i can say cwm 5.5.0.4 v 1.5 by chain fire is best for you
and there roms for that or just go for go launcher it has themes for that looks

Hi guyz
This is some weird problm I m facing in rooting my cell
None of the rooting methods seems to work for me wonder why
I cant root via flashing older kernel first coz that makes the device unusable (both processing and touchscreen responsiveness is decreased by 100 times)
Same happens when I try flashing custom kernels wid autoroot feature which includes sliding kernel vengence kernel munjeni and brains kernel
Every kernel other than the one which I extracted from stock ftf makes the device unusable
M on. 54 fw... And tethering is also broken...
So what the reason could be??
Is it the stock rom m I using??
Should I try to download c.1.0 which never caused me any trouble...??
Its highly irritating... M on absolutely stock fw and unrooted device really sucks... :/
Sorry its big but elaborated for better understanding of the issue
Edit - why me .., embarrassed...
I hv helped 100s here and nw struggling to get my phone rooted.
I cant download a new stock rom coz m seriously lacking any free time due to my clg.
this problem does not go away when u come back to .54 kernel after rooting??

Bro, i was so confused when i saw you are the creator of the thread
I was like - wtf, my future dentist and android specialist can not root his mobile? WoW :laugh:

Click to expand...
Click to collapse
Hehehehe
Now its solved
I came to conclusion that there was something wrong wid that ftf
I was able to flash xperiance lite v3 by miner
Its a standalone rom so I automatically upgraded to c.1.0 and now my device is super fine wid custom kernels.....
I aint going back to that stock ftf... It almost ruined my confidence hahahaha
try my rom autoroot is there
Good to know
