Hey!
Go to HERE!
And how to go to recovery?
1)Shut down you phone.
2)Hold down POWER+HOME buttons together, until you screen blink once and then comes GALAXY ACE....(not just SAMSUNG logo). Now you can release the buttons.
Now you must see the RECOVERY menu. Use the steps, in that thread, what link I gave you.
ENJOY!
CHEERS!
I thought Froyo do not support ClockWorkMod 4.0.0.9 yet? Correct me if i'm wrong.

Yes, you're right, I should have checked first
Sorry I have another question. Do I need to unlock my phone in order to flash into KPH? As you can see from my first post my firmware region is not from Europe and the custom rom I wanted to flash requires me to flash KPH first before flashing their rom. And also if im using CWM v4 in KPH, do i need to flash back into v3 before flashing back froyo since froyo still doesn't support CWMv4?

Hey!
You mean UNLOCK or ROOTING. I think you mean ROOTING? If yes, then you dont need to ROOT, before FLASHING to KPH(with ODIN).
If you FLASH custom ROM, they are all ROOTED already for now!
And for second question: you not need to FLASH CWM3. It will be removed automatically, if you FLASH to KPH with ODIN!
CHEERS!

I mean unlocking because I heard that some people said that one need to unlock his/her phone before he/she can flash firmware of other region's. Base on your first answer, do you mean that flashing firmware and custom rom do not need root? Because I think I need to root before Flashing custom rom.( Anyway I have already rooted my phone.)

Hey!
You not need to ROOT, if you FLASH new FIRMWARE with ODIN(ROOT after FLASHING, because you LOSE you ROOT, if you FLASHING). And custom ROM-s not need to ROOT, they all ROOTED for now!

No need to DOWNGRADE
No need to ROOT
All the four custom kernels you mentioned above are pre-rooted with pre-installed CWM
Just flash them!

My Problem isn't in rooting or downgrading
I just want to know whether custom kernel will make me gain root with out the need to push stuff like SuperUser and BusyBox to phone
Thanks Buddy:good:
As For Downgrading it's not Needed to downgrade the hole rom
just flash an older stock kernel ,root it then flash the default kernel
see Sony forums

Secondly, flash stock firmware and then flash another kernel
Thank you guys. Solved the problem by flashing rage kernel. Sorry for posting in wrong section. It was not intentional.

Your rom will be pre-rooted and you will have a permanent recovery. Also you can overclock your phone.

If you were able to flash the rage kernel and DDS kernel then that means that you have an unlocked kernel. Also if you are able to boot into fastboot then you have an unlocked bootloader.

If you said that you solved your problem flashing Rage Kernel, then your bootloader is unlocked. Cause locked bootloaders cannot flash kernels

On stock rom type *#*#7378423#*#* -> Service Info -> Configuration -> Rooting Status: Bootloader unlocked: yes
Or you connect it in fastboot mode to flashtool, it should say Bootloader Status: Rooted (or simliar) :good:

And just for the record, when I go into the update centre app on my phone it still asks me to update to 4.1.B.0.587 with 0.1 mb of update download. I dont know why this is so. but in the about phone section the software version is 4.1.B.0.587. but it still asks to update to 4.1.B.0.587.

its pretty obvious.. when you flash the stock rom manually, some of the stuffs are not in order as the factory one even if the version is same.. so to put it in order perfectly you have to install the update...

by the way.. what tool did you use to flash the stock rom ?? flashtool ??
Hello guys, i have a question for you.
The situation of my phone is this:
NOT-unlocked bootloader
CWM recovery
.587 baseband
OctanE ROM v5
I want to try Jelly bean, so i must unlock the bootl.
Should I install stock rom before the operation? Or can I maintain mine?
No need to flash stock ROM again... Just unlock your bootloader... There's a complete guide by mihahn in the stickies
And then flash JB specific kernel and flash JB ROM
