Recovery is power+home button, not volume up+home+power ( it is ramdup mode ! ).
1) Place the root file in SD card, not under any folder for simplicity.
2) Make sure the SD is not damaged !!

Power off your phone. Now hold both the earlier said buttons simultaneously. When something starts to appear on the screen, release only the power button while you still hold the home button. You'll be in recovery...

Download mode on Galaxy Ace is accessed by holding down the following keys: Volume Down + Power + Home
You can even watch a video HERE so you don't need to read anything.
You can also watch a video HERE on how to flash a ROM using Odin.

I tried it with diff sd card but it says " no such directory" when i click on apply update from sd card

dont unzip the update file after downloading. Just download update file, put it on your SD card (without extracting), hold the volume up + home + power button at the same time. than you most get in download mode (or whatever its called) install update from sd card, reboot.
p.s you may need to check "unknown sources" from your mobile settings.

Don't select apply update from SD, Instead select your file via choose zip from SD.

Hello if i go to recovery mode,click on apply update from SD card,it says 'file directory' not found :'(

It is captivate with cynogen 7 mod but if you don't know what it is I'm guessing you don't have it (not to be rude) . So just get the regular captivate cwm update.zip .. Hope this answered what you need to know.

Ya, once you flash another rom it will depending on the rom replace the one from rom manger. Do if you want to keep that cwm recovery just copy the "update.zip" file from the root of the sd card. If your not rooted let me know and I will post it for you.

Yah, I'm rooted and everything, but here's my latest issue. If i hit reinstall packages in the samsung recovery thing, i get E: (insert whatever error it is here). And I can't go back to stock with Odin3 because it never reads my phone in download mode on my laptop. Thanks again!
I'm trying to figure out how to upload the zip from my phone, but if you look for "3e recovery" with search you can get fix fit that.

Have you tried odin one click to get to stock ? It should get you there. And did your phone come with froyo?

It did come with FroYo and Odin will only register my phone when it's on, as soon as i go into download mode it ddoesn't register any more. Everybody says try the USB on the back of the computer but I'm kinda on a laptop lol.

Yah, I've tried that, but it will read my phone when on and will have the yellow 0[COM:4] (5 or something like that) and as soon as I turn off my phone to go into download mode it goes away, saying "removed", and the yellow box disappears and doesn't come back until I reboot into regular phone.
While it is plugged in turn it off and then try adb download
Ithink it is; "adb shell" then "su" then "reboot download"..... Hopefully that should help

Well close odin, then (just to make shore correct on getting to download mode) remove your simcard and battery and external sd card. Next open odin (with phone un plugged) next put in battery and hold down volume keys, and plug in to computer and see if that works, because odin has to be open before you go to download mode

Does odin see the comm port? If it does i'd try to flash the stock rom thru odin. Sammobil would have the stock rom for your device.

Nope, not a brick. You probably have a working button combination, but the recovery simply isn't there. You need to boot into download mode and flash a kernel.

Why don't you just flash a stock rom with Odin and do the whole thing again (root, etc...)
