Just install it like other custom rom,
-complete wipe in recovery mode
-install zip from sd card
-reboot device
You're done...
If you're getting into a bootloop try to,
-reboot into recovery mode
-wipe data/factory reset, wipe cache partition
-reboot the device
You should try this script to help your internal storage:

Note: don't forget to mount data and system before installing the script

Does it work with stock rom?
Sent from my GT-S5570 using xda premium
I'M NOT SURE IF IT WILL WORK WITH STOCK
If Android freezes at boot screen:
1. Do a fresh install of stock rom via odin
2. install latest recovery.
most important procedure
3. switch off then press only home button and power button
1. wipe data/factory reset.[imp]
2. wipe cache partition.[imp]
3. Go to mounts and storage and format these :
a. system
b. data
c. cache
d. sdext
4 go to advanced and then in there format :
a. Dalvik cache
b. Battery stats [not imp.]
4. Install apocalypse latest final version.
5. install layout properly as suggest in developer post. after installing layout reboot 2 times.
6. mount system and install AMARULLZ DATA TO SD-EXTat this point after i apply the script the screen gets frozen in the android boot screen and i cant even see the bootanimation
7. give 2 reboots after installing AMARULLZ DATA TO SD-EXT.
8. check ur internal memory it will be according to ur partition size.
9. [if error] if u find internal memory still same then u must have not mounted system go to recovery again and mount system and then flash script again.
Link to all the files?

It wont work with stock, stock dont have init.d and stock recovery isnt mounting system. Just try Link2sd. Its great app.

but my phone is already rooted, do i need to root it again?
No. Only flash cwm.
CMW isnt root
So, what's the topic i must follow in the topic that Frank provided?
Download cwm5 and flash in stock recowery.
I can't install cwm5..
I copy the file to my sdcard.
Then i reboot my phone at recovery mode.
After that I go to apply update from sdcard -> recovery-clockwork-5.zip
After that it was suppose to install cwm5 right?
But this is what happens:
--Install /sdcard ...
Finding update package...
Opening update package...
Installation aborted.
For some reason the installation isn't working..
Ensure its the correct version for you're phone model

I don't have that option! :/
The options I have are:

wipe data/factory reset

Yeah, my bad. You have to flash thru odin. If you downloaded the files from previous posts, download odin v1.85 and place the files like this: PDA (.tar file) and PIT (512.pit .. or something like this; it has to be. pit). Make sure RE-PARTITION is unticked and others two are ticked. Put your phone in Download mode and plug-in USB cable. If appears "ADDED" in odin, press start. If doesn't appear, u will need the driver. It should rebot and VOILA!

When I try to Flash ROM the installation fails.
Does this happens because i'm on galaxy ace s5830i instead of s5830?

If you mean the Wipe Data/Factory Reset option in CWM then it only deletes the /data partition (2GB). It doesn't delete your internal storage (12GB) (/sdcard usually) or your external memory card.
If you want to wipe your internal storage too, then go to Mounts and Storage then Format emmc. That should format your internal storage.
If you use the in-ROM options (not CWM) then: Settings>Back up and reset>Factory data reset>>>>>>>>this one deletes the /data partition only (same as Wipe Data/Factory Reset in CWM)
Settings>Storage>Format USB storage>>>>>>>>this one formats your internal storage (same as Format emmc in CWM).
Aslo there was a much talked about bug which caused flies to stay even after a reset. Not followed it much but it should be there somewhere in philz thread
Yes it still stays after the reset. ..

Factory reset will NOT remove your personal files like documents, downloads, music and picture files.. however, formatting SDcard will do that.. Factory reset will wipe Data folders, Android_secure & Cache
Make sure you do that from a safe kernel e.g. a recent Philz kernel or Abyss GB Kernel so that you won't brick your phone
Some ROMs may require factory 3 times to work properly without a bootloop, I have encountered that when switching from CM10 (PA) to TW (XLS2).
I have made a flashable zip with factory reset 3 times, cache wiping 3 times, dalvick cache wiping 3 times and system format, you might want to use it before you install a new ROM
I like to note that formatting system will also NOT remove your personal files.
AGAIN, Please remember to flash a safe kernel THEN reboot recovery before you do any wipes
Best of luck
P.S. I am no expert but I learnt my way around

Clean stock install

Hi Dev,
Im currently using a custom rom, there is a tons of folder created during installing of different rom and apps on my sd card. It is safe to do this following steps on how to install clean stock rom?
1. wipe factory/wipe cache/wipe dalvik
2. format system/format data/format preload/format EMMC
3 remove battery/download mode (vol down,power key, menu key)
4. install official rom using odin.
its safe to format the EMMC?
Thank you in advance
Any reason you want to format emmc? Nowhere is it mandatory to do so. A factory reset, wipe cache and dalvik suffices.
What emmc is stand for?

i just wanted to remove unused folders in sdcard easily and safe.

[Q] Complete format

On TWRP, which of these can i format to completely erase everything so i can have a clean install of omnirom?
Dalvik Chache (Going to wipe)
Cache (going to wipe)
Systen
Data
Internal Storage
Android Secure
And would anybody tell me if i need to reinstall the asylum kernal to reinstall omnirom after a complete wipe?
Thank youu
You can format all of those but make sure you have the rom zip on external...
What's the kernel you using to get twrp? If it's raw or omni default then no need to install any other kernel. Just go with the installation..

Wipe all except internal storage.
