As it was said, wrong section, and there is a thread about darky so.. pff.
Your issue seems to be recovery 3e, flash with odin a cf root or custom (speedmod, voodoo..) kernel. That's all.

People are helpful... provided that you ask in the right place.

Just flash a kernel with 2e android recovery using odin, and you'll be set. then just copy the zip to internal sd and flash it from clockworkmod recovery

Friendly helpful yes but extremely peed off with Darky users who cannot be bothered to ask him read the posts read the faqs ask for help on Darkys help channel .Majority of helps on these pages are from Darky users .One gets a bit fed up pointing out that the developer knows whats in his rom and how to fix it the forum is XDA not solve dargy rom problem forum .Many members will have no knowledge of Darkys rom thats why we say ask Darky .
If you cannot read simple instructions like Q&A in correct section as you have not bothered to look /read/understand then you are going to break your phone .

yes..wrong section
try to post in i9000 q and a section
darky's rom is good but theme is crap....y not miui or cm7?

Indeed it's the wrong section, you have to post in the Galaxy S I9000 Q&A section, here you are in the I9003 section, Galaxy S SL, which is different from your phone, Galaxy S
Don't try any ROM of this section, you'll brick your phone!

[Q] Just a little Newbie Help, Please.

First of all, Sorry. I HAVE looked for specific help on this for the past couple of days, and i just cant make head nor tail about it. I can root my phone.. wipe data etc, but when it comes to actually installing the roms is where i become a total fail. If you guys could help me out, it would be greatly appreciated. I have a samsung Galaxy ace "s5830i". I really dont like the plain boring menu's etc i just really want a change. So if somebody has some spare time to take me through it and tell me exactly what to do, I'd be very happy....
The rom i would like for my phone is located here...

you can't install that ROM on your phone since that ROM was made for "Galaxy Ace S5830".
Your phone is Galaxy Ace S5830"i". there's a different forum section for your phone.
here's the link. CLICK ME! Galaxy Ace S5830"i"

Thanks

Sorry but I don't know any other sites that has ROMs for an Ace i.
Unfortunately, yes. There's not a lot of developers/users of ace i compared to the first generation of galaxy ace(which is the s5380 w/o the letters).
there's a couple of good roms that are available on the section i gave you tho. you should try them out.
I checked a couple of threads there's an on going CM7 project for your phone.
If you're not going to upgrade phone yet, maybe you should try a custom stock rom and wait for the cm7 to reach its beta.
anyway, you're very welcome to ask me through PM. I can guide you and teach you the basics(since I got nothing to do and I'm bored).
Cheers.

[Q] Samsung galaxy ace s5830D will not let me use the bootloader, please help

Hey guys,
I have a Samsung galaxy ace s5830D. As I have sort of figured out it is different than the galaxy ace s5830 and the s5830i. I was able to root it with superoneclick. But my bootloader just says "installation aborted" when I try installing clockwork mod or any custom roms. If you have a fix for this that would be greatly appreciated !
Sorry if I'm kind of a noob. But i can't find any threads for this phone at all /:
Thanks, guys.

Bootloader?? Shouldn't you flash it in the recovery ??

The s5830D is not really that much different than the standard s5830, other than regional stuff. I have the "D" model and have been using the info for the standard s5830. Same roms, recovery and tutorials work.

Would you be so kind as to link to the appropriate s5830 roms and tuts that worked out for you, please?
I've seen some thread where people haven't had as good luck as yourself with s5830 stuff working on s5830D devices.

I cant remember for sure which one I used for cwm, but this one seems familiar to me. As for ROM's its a matter of finding one you like, read the developers threads to get an idea of if that ROM is what you want. At the moment I'm using Democracy final, but I change ROM's like crazy. lol. Another one I am fond of is Apocolypse. Again, these both appealed to me and suited my use of my Ace. Just make sure that anytime you flash anything thats it's for the s5830, as flashing something for other variants will brick your phone..
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1797986
If you want to check out the 2 roms I mentioned:
Democracy Final Edition
Apocolypse Final

Similar problem but I can't figure it out
oops nvm, delete this post

[Q] Swapping external_sd and internal memory on the Ace

I have a Galaxy Ace 2(GT-I8160), and remember when I was trying new roms, a few of them offered a patch, that was switching the internal USB memory(where everything goes) with the External SD card(which is usable only for music, photos and downloads). Now a friend of mine has the same issues that the memory gets filled in magical way and there is nothing left to do except maybe to restore factory defaults(which is annoying IMO). So I am asking is there any sort of trick which could be used to achieve the same result, and use the 8gig SD card as a internal memory?
The phone is Samsung Galaxy Ace (Three UK) more info could be provided later today.
The best scenario is without flashing, rooting is an option, but not recommended(my friend is a bit stuck on technology ) I would appreciate if the procedure does not require manual partitioning of the SD Card and as a must, not to require a ROM.
This is my first post on the XDA, so don't get hard on me.

wrong section :/ >_<

HI, CronoMod seems to have a universal way to do it ("CronMod INT2EXT scripts are the first universal INT2EXT method released") however I didnt tried on another phone besides the 5830.
You've better ask in CronMod thread
Hope I helped
