  • Download ClockworkMod Recovery 4.0.0.9. This version is only for Gingerbread. If you are still running on Froyo, I recommend you to upgrade ACE to Gingerbread 2.3.4 S5830XXKPH. For flashing with Odin follow this guide with video tutorial.
  • Once the CWM zip file is downloaded, place it to your sdcard.
  • Now reboot in recovery mode. This can be done by pressing and holding Power button+Menu button in off state.
  • Select Apply Update from SDcard and point to the CWM zip file you placed on sdcard after download.

Thnks for the tut. Do you know if the phone needs to be rooted to perform the installation of Clockworkmod, or is the above tut for unrooted ACE ok as well.

    Ok i went through all the queries, First of all i am sorry for replying late i have very less access to net even to see the youtube comments. So here it is.

    1. Your needs include” Recording, Radio, Video , Songs, Video Making, Picture Taking.” Believe me i have used all sorts of roms till date, with just data usage like on fb, foursquare, twitter, maps and bit of camera my battery drains in just 1 day. So the battery life depends on your usage habits, more you use the lesser the battery.
    2. Stock Roms are obviously stable but the post is bit old now and the cynogen mod based custom roms are not bad either.
    3. The auto forward feature I do not remember(never used). I use Go SMS, available free in market and its superb.
    4. I am presently using Sanginger Ace(covered in previous posts) Its very light and stable.

    If you want so then just go to Samsung care they will change the OS.
