[GUIDE][ROOT] How to root a Samsung Galaxy ACE GT S5839i

This guide wasn't made by me, it's available here
In this post we will explain a different process to root a Samsung Galaxy ACE device model GT-S5839i, because the process using SuperOneClick that we explained in a previous post to root a model GT-S5830 with android 2.3.5 does not work on this new model.
1. Download the file root.zip and copy it (without uncompressing it) to the sdcard
2. Switch off the device, and switch it on in recovery mode (press and hold at the same time the buttons “Volume Up”, “Power” and “Home”. Release the buttons when the device starts booting). After a while, the recovery menu is displayed
We can move from option to option in the menu by pressing “Volume Up” and “Volume Down”.
Choose the option “install zip from sdcard”, chosse the file “root.zip” and press the “Home” button.
3. Again, in the recovery menu, choose “reboot system now” and press the “Home” button, and that’s it!

If you are installing stock rom then
1. Switch off your phone.
2. Boot it in DOWNLOAD mode not in (CWM Recovery mod). You can so by pressing VOLUME DOWN + HOME + POWER BUTTON.
3. Then connect it to PC using USB cable.
4. Place the downloaded stock ROM in ODIN folder and open up ODIN.exe file (it will detect your phone in few seconds but if it doesn't detect then install samsung drivers and try again).
5. Then click on PDA button and choose PDA button. REMEMBER to uncheck REPARTITION.
6. Final click on START button wait for the flashing to get completed.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------
II ) if you are installing custom ROM through CWM Recovery then keep the custom ROM in root folder of SD card it means just in the location that you see just after opening the SD card on PC. Don't place it in any folder.
More over if you are flashing the new Cathezilla ROM then don't do it right now because it is not working right now. Wait for the developer and others to test.

You will have to flash stock rom through ODIN

[BeginnerGuides] How to root Samsung Galaxy S Duos

Hello XDA,
I know there are lot of guides on how to root the Galaxy Note 2,but unfortunately I have not seen a guide that is clear enough to beginners that know nothing about Android. So, after hard work I have done a guide on how to root the Samsung Galaxy note 2 and put it in your hands.
Note:I Have Also Made A Picture Full Guide So, IF This Guide Wasn't Clear For You, You Can Go HERE
Introduction:
Today, I will guide you on how you can root Samsung Galaxy S Duos. This method is the easiest and the safest with NO triangle will appear on your boot. This method will flash (install) a custom recovery to gain root then after rooting we will flash back the stock recovery.
Disclaimer:
I’m not responsible if something goes wrong on your phone(Usually nothing goes wrong), you’re doing this on your own responsibility. Rooting your phone will void your warranty so don’t root your device unless you know what you are doing. To know more about rooting check What is rooting and it’s top 10 benefits.
The Method:
Requirements:
1- Download this zip file Galaxy S Duos S7562 (Rooting Kit).rar, thenextract it and you shall see these 5 files:
A)CWM-SuperSU-v0.96, put it in your phone external SD card.
B) Odin.zip,
C) CWM recovery
D) Stock_Recovey
E) Samsung USB drivers, install it.
2- Backup your device.Luckily, we have a post on how you can backup your
device here
Let’s Start:
Step1:
A- First of all,put your Galaxy S Duos in the download mode by holding the and then press the power button for 5 seconds then a warning screen will appear and you will have to press the volume up.
B- Extract Odin.zip and you will see 3 files, now click on “odin.exe”.
C- Now make sure only these boxes are checked ,then click on PDA and Choose CWM recovery.tar
D- Now remove the cover then click on start and wait until you see “Pass” above the “ID:COM”
table
Step2: After the phone shutdown completely (you can know that because the phone will vibrate when its completely off) remove the battery,then place it again.Now hold the Volume UP Button+ Home Button then press the Power Button for 5 seconds to boot to ClockWorkMod recovery. (To navigate throw the menus you can use the Home Button to select and the Volume Buttons to move up and down.)
Step3:
A- Now Choose the option “install zip from sdcard” then the option “choose zip from sdard” and now navigate to the file we moved earlier (CWM-SuperSU-v0.96.zip) and choose it by pressing the Home Button. You will have now to scroll to the option “Yes” by using the Volume Keys and then choosing it by pressing the Home Button
B-After the process finishes, you will have to go back to the main menu and choose the option “Reboot System Now”. Now your phone will restart and you should see SuperSu in your app drawer.
