hmmm.. should have read more before you flashed.. mini and mini plus have different hardware.. stock roms and custom ROMs for mini will not work on mini plus.. the hardware components of mini plus is same as galaxy y.. you can check out this thread:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1567101
but you must at least have 10 posts here and in the apps/themes section before you can post in the dev section.. you can try to PM the plus users there for help. or hopfully someone with mini plus will read this post and help out..

My phone wont boot: Failed to mount system

Hi guys!
I was Rooting my phone, and everything was okay with my first steps, I got a Superuser app in my phone and the most important thing it was working. After I was looking for my new Rom for my phone, I thought the CyanogenMod 9.0.0-RC0-GalaxyICS-UNOFFICIAL-beta8 one should be fine.
I downloaded the beta 8 version, after I installed to my phone. The installation was succesful. But after my Phone wont boot.. I got these messages:
- Appling Multi-CSC --
E:failed to mount /system
(Invalid Argument)
Anyone..Pls Help me !

Your phone is a S5830i?
If is, there is the problem
Sent from my GT-S5830 using my hands

Your ace is 5830 right? And did you flash from stock recovery or from cwm? If you can get download mode then you will be able to reflash via Odin, find firmware on SamMobile.com

I did just this root: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1603273
I am a f*ckin' idiot I should read more before I am doing this thing..

And Right, my Ace is GT-5830 (without any i)

Err you need clockworkmod
AOKP 4 LYF

Install clockwork mod recovery with Odin and reflash rom using cwm.

Its best that you install your stock rom and be happy with it. And yes, if u don't know, don't ever use rom manager. Its just not meant for galaxy ace.

right I flashed most of roms but now i am back to my custom stock rom with cm7 UI and i woudn't change it

[Q] HELP !!

I tried to update to Cm 7 with my galaxy mini but now its just stuck on a screen that says "android" , It wont move and I cant do nothing. Can someone tell me what to do? Is there anyway to return it to how it was at the start.. I only have it 2 days

If it's new, make sure its not s5570i or mini/pop/next plus.. 2nd, make sure you had GB prior to flashing. 3rd, if you have the orig mini with GB and still got stuck, wipe data/cache in cwm and reboot again..

I am not sure because I have changed my phone. As I used a mini it came with froyo preinstalled. If I remember correct, you first have to upgrade to gingerbread before you can install cm7. But I am not sure. I don't know what will happen if you didn't made it.

Here's detailed guide how to flash custom rom. It works for all custom rom's, not only cyanogenmod.link

Help Please

Hi, sorry if i'm not posting in the correct section it's just that i can't find a section for the galaxy ace gt-5839i so this was the closest thing. The other day i rooted the gt-5839i and then decided i would be an idiot and atempted to install cwm4 and now the phone is stuck on the screen that displays the model number. I can boot into recovery but doing a data reset/wipe or wiping the cache or trying to install a new rom is not working at all, all it says is E:failed to mount /system (Invalid argument) so i'm guessing i probably need to reflash an appropriate stock recovery (2.3.6) to fix this it's just that i can't find one and don't know which i should try if anyone could help me out on this one i would be extremely greatful as at the moment the phone useless, thanks.

first, download your stock firmware from samfirmware.com
then download odin, and learn how to use that

dont no what that is sorry

Is cwm on your phone ? , if you have, just restore a nandroid and if you don't have just flash another rom
If you have stock recovery and wipe cache/data don't work you must use something like fastboot just google it or chearch in a bootloop category on xda
Your phone is not hard bricked its in a bootloop so you can repair it

flash another rom and flash again rom which you like
