Pre-Requisites:

Charge your phones battery before moving further. This is must so as to decrease the risk of interruption during the flashing process. So I highly recommend to charge the battery of your phone at least up to 60%. You may use thisBattery Notifier App for the same.

Backup every data present on your phone including contacts, SMS/MMS, APN settings, Memo, Call logs etc. Transfer them on your PC for more safety. In the last step of this procedure you need to wipe all the data present in your phones internal memory so a backup must be done so as to decrease the risk of loosing your important data. You may use Super Backup app for the same.

EFS folder, a very sensitive folder present in your system directory must be backed up. This folder contains all your phones specific information such as the IMEI, wireless devices MAC addresses, product code, and much more. There is always a risk that sometimes flashing ROM may corrupt the content within this EFS folder. If so happened, your device will be completely useless & will no longer be recognized by your carrier.

Make sure that your Galaxy Ace S5830I is rooted. Also a Custom recovery like CWM (Clockworkmod) or TWRP must be installed on your phone before proceeding further. Follow our article for the same.
