Hi, I want to root my S6500 too. I'm stuck at entering the recovery menu. I just can't do it. I've tried all the methods I could find on the internet and still nothing.
The specs for the phone are:
Model GT-S6500D
Android 2.3.6
Baseband S6500DXXLC3
Kernel version 2.6.38.6 [email protected]#1
Build number GINGERBREAD.XXLC4
I should mention before this I had a galaxy mini S5570 which I rooted successfully using the recovery menu method.

I've tried it but it just booted normally.
Coolsandie I think the unlockroot application is my best bet for now. But it apears that it doesn't suport the S6500 yet. Maybe in some time it will. So I just have to put rooting my phone on hold for now.

while playing with the keys:
1 shut down from menu (press power button)
2:
volume up + volume down +home and press power. -ANDROID SYSTEM RECOVERY UTILITY
volume down + home and press power - DOWNLOAD MODE
and rom (ram?) dump mode sometimes appears on screen in don't know the key combination v
volume up + home and power nothing....

Thanks grigoreee it worked. Pressing all the keys until the samsung logo appears will enter in the recovery menu.
From then on is just like all the other phones.
The question is do you need a specific update zip file for this phone model and kernel version or you can use any rooting update for android 2.3.6?

Before you try anything backup your firmware.. and write software,hardware version in a safe place...

It's already released?

why not try superoneclick

Does it supports the S6500D?

hey people can somebody extract touchwiz 4 launcher of mini 2 from system\app
use oi file manager to copy system files to SD without root.please

Try holding the power button and the volume up button at the same time...hold both until recovery starts.

It was volume up and those two buttons. But when i go to install update from sd card and select it, it won't install it.

for galaxy mini to enter recovery mode press & hold power+home....to enter download mode press & hold power+volume down+home..
i dont know what mini version you are

1. Switch off ur phone
2. Press the power + center button at the same time.
3. You will boot into recovery after a few seseconds
4. If u press vlo down + power + center buttons, u go into download mode not recovery.

Entering recovery mode on Ace GT-S5830i, Xcover, Young, Y-Duos, Y-Pro, Y-Pro Duos, M-Pro (Volume up Button) + (Home Button) + (Power button)....so you are not on Mini

I did everything that the post said and it's still not rooted. It said install sucessful, but there is no superuser, and when i go to rom manager it says i have to root it. it was strange to me too, but even in settings it's GT-S5570I.

galaxy y uses a different button combo..
i think u need to press vol up + power + home buttons to access recovery when the phone is switched off..
or if are rooted, install quick reboot app from playstore and go into recovery with a simple click.

Try volume up and down and power button together. You should be in the download mode. Then install any of the stock roms from the forum here.

Firstly, you should know custom roms for "cooperve" are designed to run only on Samsung Galaxy Ace S5830i and not on Samsung Galaxy Ace S5830. Only custom roms for "cooper" are designed to run on Samsung Galaxy Ace S5830. Due to hardware differences, running cooperve roms or kernels on Samsung Galaxy Ace can brick your phone. Sadly you have bricked your phone. But @SuperMini has provided us with a rather simple guide on how to unbrick Samsung Galaxy Ace. Go through the entire thread and you will get to know all the possible solutions. Here is the link,

Can you try switching the USB ports? Also try to enter Download mode by pressing Vol Down+ Power+ Home button as per the guide again. Pressing Vol Up+ Power+ Home button makes your phone to enter RAM Dump mode. Also inside odin, unselect "Protect OPS" option and give it a try. Do post your result. Hope I Helped

Why you install ROM for S2 on S3 mini ?
Can you enter to the Download mode ? (Volume down + home button + power button) If yes, than you can flash stock rom via Odin

You hard bricked your phone because you flashed a ROM not meant for your phone. So send it in for repairs.
