Well first advice is to read read read these forums, lots of information.
Your phone has a quite old version of android so updating that would be a good start. Froyo 2.2.1 is the latest official which should be available in Kies for you. Gingerbread 2.3.3 is expected to be officially released for the SGS within the next 2 weeks. You can also flash custom ROMs and newer ROMs then Kies offers you yourself, but without 3-button recovery thats tricky. Atleast make/buy and test a recovery JIG before going there.
Then maybe slap on a theme of your liking and get some good apps (dont be afraid to pay a few bucks for good apps either)
Being bored of phone usually means youre not doing anything interesting or fun with it a phone in itself is only so exciting

well, there's your problem
I don't know how much you already know but I advise you to read as much stickies and rom threads as you can. After that you will probably come to the conclusion that you want to install a custom ROM. Do so and your life will change forever
If you need any help, don't hesitate to consult the search function (or ask here^^)

Have a look here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=814091

This is the place to start.
After you have read everything there, this would be some steps to follow:
1.Install ADB on your computer
2.Download Odin 1.7
3.Repair your 3-button recovery/download problem with Richtofen's guide (after this you can do whaterver u want with your phone, as long as you stay away from firmwares with bootloaders included)
4.Flash a 2.2.1 or 2.3.3 firmware using Odin (i recommend one of the deodexed firmwares from Ramad's thread)
5.Apply what ever theme you want
Maybe this instruction seem a little hard to understand now but after you've finished reading the wiki from the link i've posted, it will be more clearer.

thanks for all the replies I will start reading about what you guys have posted in the morning iam on my mobile now and it is late please stay in touch with me I will be replying activly and frequently thx again ! I will Risk my phone as long as you guys are here to back me up , I was afraid of applying the first 3 bottom fix as most users cried about their phones getting broken.

Being afraid in starting is normal .... but the golden rule is to read and understand several times what procedure u have to follow...and second imp thing is read n follow instructions provided in specific post.
As different rom needs different technique and different procedure.
Another thing is search youtube for videos on how to's.

Here is a link to custom rom MIUI 2.3.3. (I am not telling u to install it on ur device this is just for reference n learning purpose). It has all the instructions and also a video on how to install the rom. I would suggest just read the whole thing and try to understand what is involved in the process.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=992251
Once you done with it then find another thread of custom rom and read through it.
And even read the comments on different pages it is very useful and most of the questions are also.answered. Thats how i learned .

I'm willing to develop for s5830i. But, don't have device, so i can't do anything. Though, if somebody could form a team. And, get atleast 1 rom which can be used on s5830i. Maybe a flashable stock rom. Because, i can't build from source....

I have S5830i device and i am a J2EE - Java Senior, I don't know Android development but i wish to learn, if you teach me about Android development, could be help you to development a custom ROM and those testing on my device!

nah....There are some problems with their device that causes sh to fail...So, it is hard to debug because you can't use Adb.I made one but had a few bugs,rajrocks made another one, pretty bug free, but has some problems with wifi and network...su doesn't work in most of the roms too

Unless you are going to do high levels of modding or building from source, you don't need any language expertise

Okk. Thanks for the feedback.
I heard that s5830i has no GPU?
That's going to be really hard to make a rom for this device, because i don't think it will get anywhere near RC.

[Q] HOW TO MOD A S5830i/C/M

The most appropriate answer to this thread!! lol +1

not a noob on mobiles
i meant to say that i even get it a cellphone what i cant mod by myself,i just wonder if there someone who can do that or if it not exist a way to make it,if its imposible,i guess not,just tell if it possible,i was looking all day long over google,and my last reason to be here posting a question its just beacause its a developer page,if it here theres no answer that meant that still no exist cuz its a different model 5830m,dont know why,hope some modder can answer my situation some day

better of luck to you mate
u see none of our devs have these variants so there are no roms , no mods for it
edit : ok so there is a rom .....

Theres already a stock deodex rom with lovely ics theme posted. Its for s5830i but it should work with c and m variant.

its true but
annonymous its true but the problem its that i cant change the version of clockworld mod inside the phone,cuz stay as a semi brick phone when i tried to replace by another one,starting with that i cant do anything by my own,i wanted cook my own room but i have to get a way to update the clockworld mod first,even theres a kernel to change yet,and google still doesnt know about 5830m just users with the same problem,thought if someone try first can make himself famous,ok thats not what i need,i need find a way to mod my phone

reflash stock rom via odin

i did it
no bro,thats not work,never mind,thought you dont understand me,i mean i have a stock rom,i change it by a 5830i and a 5830c roms,looking for avalaiable roms or ways to mod one

there is no such thing.
And why don't you try it for yourself? you will get to experience it first hand. And if your scared then don't use odin or cwm or even rooting because there are always risks involved in these.

The SGSII v8.1 patch u r talking about is jst a patch for the COmplete v8 ROM. it has recently been updated to v9 and it really is a gud ROM the Battery life is also better in the LAtest Release and it is almost stock based so u won't find A WHOLE LOT of UI changes on your ACe jst additions, and the PErformance is also gud.
other than this, you can try the MIracle ROM it is also a wonderful ROM bt as it is performance based, u can't expect a battery life of 1 day
As you roam around the forums you will learn slowly by trying and testing stuff.
Ohh and ACTUALLY, there is NO perfect ROM

No pal that's not it. Many mini 2 users shifted to other latest or good model and also mini 2 users are just plain users. They don't even know about flashing nor XDA.. That's main the reason why we have only few developers. But don't worry I heard the mini 2 will receive JB update but i'm not sure it my self
