HOW TO ROOT SAMSUNG GALAXY ACE AND UPDATE FOR ICS

HOW TO ROOT SAMSUNG GALAXY ACE

AND UPDATE FOR ICS

If you own a Samsung Galaxy Ace S5830 running on Android 2.3.5 Gingerbread DDKQ5 or DDKQ6 version, you can now easily root your device. If you are unsure what version your phone is running, you can verify by heading to Settings > About Phone > Firmware Version, in which you can find valuable information on what type of firmware version your device has.

What is Rooting?

For those of you who are not familiar with rooting, it is like jailbreaking your phone to support neat new features normally not found on a smartphone. There are many benefits you can have once you gain root access on your device. For example, you can make your phone run faster, install custom ROMs, and install (sideload) applications from third-party sources.

Along with great functionalities and features rooting has to offer, it also has some downsides. Once you root your device, you are also (possibly) voiding its warranty. Although, there is usually the option of unrooting your device by updating it with a stock ROM. Overall, rooting can be a win-win situation.

Prerequisites

• Just in case your phone data, call log, text messages, and media files get erased in the process, you need to backup those files as a precautionary measure.
• In order for the rooting process to begin, it is highly suggested that you need to at least charge your phone to 60%.
• You also need to enable USB Debugging on your phone. This can be enabled by heading to Settings > Applications > Development > USB Debugging.
• Lastly, close all potentially conflicting applications on your computer such as antivirus software, Samsung Kies PC Suite, and firewall software as they tend to disrupt or block the rooting process. If you do have other unnecessary applications that cause your phone delays, you should uninstall them or remove them as well.

Once the necessary preparations have been done, you are now ready to proceed to the rooting instructions.

Rooting Instructions

1. Download the latest Galaxy ACE Rooting Package to your computer. Get the file here(about 925 KB).
2. Connect your phone to your computer via USB cable.
3. Copy the downloaded ZIP file to your phone’s SD card without renaming or modifying the file.
4. Reboot into recovery mode. Turn off your phone. Then, simultaneously press and hold the Volume Up + OK button, and press the Power button.
5. Your phone will boot to the recovery mode screen. From here, choose “Install zip from SD Card” and select “Choose Zip from SD”.
6. Using the Volume Up and Volume Down keys, locate the ZIP file that you just copied to your SD card (the one named “upd_1.zip”). Press the Power button to select it.
7. Wait for about 5 – 10 minutes for the rooting process to finish.
8. Once the rooting process is done, your phone will automatically reboot. If it fails to do so, head back to the main menu by selecting “++++ Go Back ++++” and select “Reboot System Now” to manually reboot your phone.

Congratulations! You have successfully rooted your Samsung Galaxy Ace. You can now enjoy the benefits of having a rooted device.

With Ice Cream Sandwich just around the corner – the Samsung Galaxy S2 for T-Mobile and its Galaxy S2 siblings are likely to have the highest bounty to get ICS on it as soon as humanly possible. If you’re thinking about wanting to truly customize your Android phone – and this is currently one of the best Android phones on the market – then look no further than rooting! Check out our comprehensive guide here!

That’s right, there is finally a way to root your Galaxy S2 on T-Mobile, thanks to some of the forum members on RootzWiki’s forums. For those of you new to Android, rooting is amazing. It basically give you the ability to have total control of everything on your device, much in the same way an administrator would have full access to a computer. Right now, if your phone isn’t rooted, you’re really more like a guest. Rooting allows you to remove or freeze bloatware — like Verizon’s VCast and other carrier specific apps — that are annoying, and you are unable to delete without being rooted. Oh, and then there’s everyone’s favorite – flashing custom ROM’s!

So lets get to how to root your Galaxy S2 on T-Mobile.

If you need a little bit of a primer on rooting, check out this article.

5: An SD Card for Clockwork Recovery to work.

Step-by-Step Guide:

1: Make sure Windows recognizes your phone in ODIN. To do this use the adb command adb reboot download. Or Turn off the phone, hold both PWR + Vol Down, and plug in the USB cable.
2. Select the ‘PDA’ button and browse to recovery-cwm-hercules.tar.
3: Select ‘Start’.
4: The file should flash to recovery and reboot the phone.
5: After the reboot, mount USB storage and copy the Superuser.zip file to the SD card.
6: Reboot into recovery with the adb command adb reboot recovery or power off, unplug the USB, hold down the Vol Down+ Vol Up buttons and press Power.
7: You should boot into Clockwork recovery.
8: Perform a nandroid backup from the backup/restore menu.
9: Select ‘Install ZIP from SD Card’ choose the Superuser.zip file, and let it install.
