You HOLD and don't RELEASE Home and Power button untill you see recovery mode (even when you see samsung logo you don't release the buttons). You can try even if your phone is switched on it will go in recovery mode ;)
 
Nothing. Hold it down like 1 min and still nothing, Samsung logo apears for 1 sec and disapears and then black screen and nothing

Ahh it is Ace GT-S5830i. For that model you need to Prees and Hold the (Volume up button) + (Home Button) + (Power Button) that must work I put an update in the tutorial ;)

1. Enable Unknown Sources on your phone
2. Try create folder on your SD card "Aa"
3. Put the zip file in that folder.
4. Apply the zip file from that folder.


CWM Recovery is not supported
Is working only on Stock ROM's recovery mode.
 
But, I cannot get this method to work on my phone.
I have the Galaxy Ace version GT-5830M running Android 2.3.6.
So far I have tried the universal BG root v12 and I get the "E:Error in /tmp/sideload/package.zip (Status 7) installation aborted" message.
Please help me.
Thanks!
