I want to root my Ace2 i8160 on 4.1.2 but don't i have to flash CWM recovery first?
If so, can you please point me a proper thread containing a good and stable cwm/a good and safe tutorial?
Thanks

But my Ace2 is XXNB1
No matter.
Edit: for the cwm, search on google "temporary cwm for galaxy ace2".

And also the fact about Rom Manger: it bricks your phone
It need a link with a good and stable CWM

Ok,thanks, managed to finally root. But what's the thing with CWM temporary? Do I have to install it every time I want to use it?

Yep. But if you install cyanogen or some other custom rom you will have permanent one.

Do you have to be on 4.0.2 to do that? or you can be on any custom rom and then just restore with that??

doesnt matter, its a backup......which are images of your recovery and boot. System, cache and data images also.
So yeah doesnt matter.
Hmm, this could be just what I need, can I just download this directly onto my phone? And what app do I need to unrar please.?

id still do a full wipe to be safe and you will need to root it if you want to
I'm going to give this a try also. What kernal is in this?
Just to confirm, this has been the easiest way to flash for me, many thanks buddy.

The stock radio is not that bad, i see no diffirence between the new radio and that of kk6

and this is for GSM or LTE?
Is it possible to flash this over Stock rooted 4.0.2 without user data wipe?
great
firstly thanks and all that - very happy
and please dont flame me but im amazed there are folk who dont know what RAR is , i cant imagine how you can get to the point where you feel the desire to root a phone but somehow havent heard the term unrar !!
again im not having a dig its just an observation, may be im just too old and rar is a format some folk have never come across
heres to WINRAR and other extracting tools LOL
Like the other user stated, this has also been the easiest upgrade for me. Went straight from 4.0.1 to 4.0.4. Used the Nexus Toolkit to restore root, Clockwork, etc. I have tried flashing to 4.0.4 on two other occasions with other ROMs and had the odd issue. Thanks!

back up your 4.0.2 first and try you can always reflash
Thanks You.
Optimal option for to flash Stock ROM, and for rollback with the Custom ROM.
There's a group of user that can't install in any described way the CWM Recovery.
My question is: is there any way to root the phone without CWM ?
And.. Is there any way to install a Custom ROM via Fastboot or any other method (without CWM?)
Thanks! :good:

I think that no CWM recovery will work on my Wildfire S because I'v read that for lasts devices there's an updated video driver that cause error recovery's boot.

I've tried every method described on the index and in other forums.
The conclusion, as i wrote before, is that we have something different about our video part that blocks the booting of the custom recovery.
Thanks for the link, I'll try :good:

I was on CWM before but devs lately are recommending TWRP
go to android development thread at top of page read the sticky notes for directions
all versions of CWM work with our t989d
easiest way to install CWM is Rom Manager from the app store
but you must root your phone first
just in case you did not know hope this helped m8

If you are flashing first time
you want the *.tar file
so you can use Odin to flash the recovery

SuperSu doesn't take long to install.
Do ROMs or mods like turboboost install?
