Restore S5830 GalaxyICS to Gingerbread

Hi guys,
I have the rom ICS Beta8 created by Maclaw installed on my Galaxy ACE. Unfortunately I urgently need the camera (not yet operative on that ROM) and I wonder if you can tell me how to restore the original rom.
Thanks,
Dario

Just read the noob guide in genaral and post qeustions like this there this thread is for developing stuff!!

Friend, do you backup your rom before flash new rom? If yes, go to CWM and select backup/restore and select restore, after select the folder with your backups and "Yes - Restore". Your folder should is in folder of CWM in your SDCARD.
If you dont have backup you files with CWM, you need .zip file to install the other rom.

Search for ODIN Installer. It will help you to go to a stock rom.

Thanks mate. I don't have any backup. I have found many zip for Android 2.3 but I am unsure if I can update them using the recovery functionality of ICS.
I am sorry to have posted on the wrong session. Anyway I think this problem is related to development as I accepted to install the beta rom on my phone and I think mine could be a common problem of many people.

Hey buddy
If from a cm rom you want to go for a stock rom then you need Odin
Normal flashing via cwm won't work due to the different file systems
But the other way around works

Why go back to stock when you can flash CM9 latest version and install the camera zip.. Hey presto you have a working camera just no video yet.

You can flash any custom rom(as long as its ext4) just the same way you flashed cm9

[NOOB] I wanna flash a newer version of Hydracore

Been looking around the forums not sure If I'm not looking in the right places or just blind But looking for a safe kernal such as Hydracore to flash in my note, was wondering if there is any new version available.
[Please keep it noob friendly]
Georific

Hydracore 7 is stable so no need to update it. There is a hydracore reborn too for Touchwiz jelly bean roms.
Finally there is Phils kernel too which is safe stock but with added Cwm features.
There are more, but them 3 are the most popular

Thanks for the quick response, mind linking me some of the threads that have the downloads and also one more thing, do you know any step-by-step tutorials on how to flash a kernal and roms to the galaxy note. I followed one a while back and links are outdated was wondering if you link me a noob friendly tutorial.

I seriously think you should not flash anything if you cant even find it yourself...

http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1749863
That's hydracore 7 can't really link things using xda app its a pain in the ass.
Anyway, find the kernel you want, if its a Cwm flashable one then place on your sd card, reboot recovery and flash it (install zip from sd, choose zip from sd)
If it's odin version (.tar) then load it into pda section of odin and reboot into download and hit start.
Same applies with roms, just load em on your sd and flash in recovery, read the OP for detailed step by step install instructions, some require wipes of /preload and /system

Best way is to check Rom Posts by other users as some users may have the same specs as you want.
GB Roms I like best with no headaches with CM and JB and are easier to mod
My own opinion

can you please be clear !!

why dont u choose it urself? go to dev section, some people say supernexus,some say cyanaosp, but if u wanna stock mod, use mackay.
so much rom release, why dont u takes some pleasure choosing rather asking, but remember, do not jump backward (4.x to 2.3) using cwm or there will be nuclear war ahead
as for me, better go to stock (any version 4.1,2.3 or 4.2) as i prefer tweaking n adjusting it myself for any setting that i wanted. but mr kasper_h already altering any stock rom release n stay close to stock so why dont u try visit his thread to read, maybe u ll find what u wanted

am new to android

i rooted my phone a couple of weeks ago thanks to a thread from u guys. am still on custom recovery cos i cant figure out a way to install clockword mod recovery. everytime i try to flash a rom it keeps saying signature verification failed. please help

First you started this topic in a wrong forum.
Second, if you need advices, you must give us some more details, like what version of Android you have (GB or JB).
Third, for CWM or TWRP you must flash first an custom kernel, and the only one custom kernel wich have development is from cocafe (CoCore E XX this is for 4.1.2 JB stock)
Steps:
1. Download and install UKF from here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2137598
2. Download and install an custom explorer (search on Google Play for ES or Solid or any other you like)
3. Download kernel zip and extract the file with .md5 extension and put it to SD Card (external).
4. Open UKF and follow the steps for flash kernel.
5. Done with kernel , now you have an custom kernel with custom recovery (CWM or TWRP)
6. Search and follow the steps for each custom ROM's thread for flash.
PS: Warning, this procedure is only for JB.

You will not need to buy new phone. Just download stock JB firmware and flash it with Odin.
You can find firmware on samsung-updates.com - just do not flash I9070P firmware on I9070 phone, or I9070 on I9070P (it will HARDBRICK your device).

Volume Down + Home (hardware key from the front part of the phone) and Power at the same time. You used those? Pull out battery, put back in and retry.
P.S. You did not tell what zip did you used.

Again. Link is for CoCore, you did not write what was the zip name.
And again, did you try to pull out the battery and retry to go in download mode. What buttons do you use for getting in download mode?
You must give us more information that we can help you.
